【英语】高三英语阅读理解真题汇编(含答案)含解析一、高中英语阅读理解1.阅读理解Notre-Dame, the cathedral (大教堂) that serves as one of Paris's most beloved monuments, is on fire. According to The New York Times, the fire began around 6: 30 p.m. local time, when tourists urgently rushed out of the building. While Andre Finot, a spokesman for the cathedral, told The Times, that the cause of the fire is still unknown and that no one has been hurt while damage to the building appears catastrophic(灾难性的).CNN reports that over 400 firefighters have been sent to fight the fire, but that they may be unable to save the cathedral. Built in the 12th century, Notre-Dame houses several relics important to Catholics (天主教徒). NBC News reports that relics from Saint Genevieve and Saint Denis may been lost, together with a relic believed to be from Jesus Christ's crown of thorns, but it states that authorities now believe that the cathedral has been saved from “total destruction”. Notre-Dame is visited by a reported 30, 000 people a day and 13 million people per year. Its destruction represents a global cultural loss. "This is just horrible", Mohamed Megdoul, 33, a film producer and witness to the fire told The Times, speaking through tears. "A thousand years of history is being wiped away. This belonged to the whole world, and now it's disappearing."French President Emmanuel Macron expressed his sadness on Twitter. "Notre-Dame of Paris in flames," reads an English translation of his statement. "Emotion for a whole nation. Thoughts for all Catholics and for all the French. Like all our countrymen, I'm sad together to see this part of us burn." Other politicians, including Melanis Trump, London Mayor Sadiq Khan, U. K. Prime Minister Theresa May also shared their sadness on Twitter.(1)What do we know about Notre-Dame according to the passage?A.It has been completely destroyed by the fire.B.It's a huge political loss to the world.C.It's only meaningful to Catholics.D.The reason of the fire remained to be found out.(2)What does the underlined sentence in the third paragraph imply?A.The history of France is destroyed because of the fire.B.The loss the fire caused is huge.C.The damage of Notre-Dame is being wiped off.D.The cathedral has been saved from "total destruction".(3)What's the purpose of writing the passage?A.To report a disaster of Notre-Dame.B.To express people's sadness of the destruction.C.To emphasize the value of Notre-Dame.D.To show the concerns from the worldwide.【答案】(1)D(2)B(3)A【解析】【分析】本文是一篇新闻报道,报道了举世闻名的法国巴黎圣母院发生火灾的相关信息。
(英语)高考英语阅读理解试题(有答案和解析)含解析一、高中英语阅读理解1.阅读理解Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is gaining global popularity. According to a government white paper, TCM has been introduced in 183 countries and regions around the world. Westerners' understanding of TCM, however, may be limited to acupuncture, cupping and massage(针灸,拔罐和按摩). For instance, the purple, injury-like marks left on U. S. swimmer Michael Phelps,back from cupping for the purpose of relaxing his muscles and reducing pain became the center of attention during the Rio Olympics in 2016.As a matter of fact, Chinese herbs play a more important role in getting rid of diseases and keeping the body in good condition in the TCM treatment system than physical treatment. It is therefore disheartening to know that while 103 World Health Organization member countries have given approval to the practice of acupuncture, not many recognize Chinese herbal medicine. TCM falls far behind Western medicine owing partly to the slow development of Chinese herbs. Herbs are made into pills, powder and soup, and the kind of herbs used, their quality and quantity, and the processing of the ingredients (原材料) jointly determine the effectiveness of the prescription. Compared with Western medicine, which has standardized drug production processes and treatment methods, TCM lacks standardization, with the chemical composition and functions of its medicines being unclear and their effects being unstable. Fortunately, standardization has improved in recent decades, with an increasing number of factories producing patented TCM drugs.Another factor that has prevented the development of TCM prescription drugs is the lack of creativity. While Western medicine-making companies come up with new products every year, TCM drug producers tend to make medicines according to prescriptions handed down from the past. Chinese chemist Tu Youyou's winning the 2015 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for her research into malaria (疟疾) treatment may drive creativity to some extent in China's TCM industry. However, the current state of affairs cannot be changed within a short time.(1)Why does the author mention the example of Michael Phelps?A. Because he was injured in his swimming.B. Because cupping is a kind of important TCM treatment.C. Because westerners know a little about TCM.D. Because westerners attach great importance to TCM.(2)Why don't some member countries of WHO recognize Chinese herbal medicine? A. Because Chinese herbs can get rid of diseases. B. Because they only approve the practice of acupuncture.C. Because Western medicine is more effective.D. Because medicine made out of Chinese herbs develops slowly.(3)Compared with Western medicine, what is the weak point of TCM in Paragraph 4? A. The methods of planting herbs. B. The effectiveness of prescription.C. Lacking in standardization.D. Its stable functions.(4)The lack of creativity in TCM refers to the fact that ________.A. medicine-making companies lack creativityB. prescriptions are got from the pastC. Western companies are more experiencedD. medicine-making companies lack driving force【答案】(1)C(2)D(3)C(4)B【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文,街扫了传统中药的好处。

Encountering this situation is so uncomfortable that you would avoid meeting new people in the first place. In the past, I struggled wit h this and I even thought it had to do with my DNA or something… But later I learned that once you know how to keep those words flowing, you can meet and talk to anyone you like, which helps create great possibilities for friendship, fun and shared activities that you would otherwise have missed out on.After studying this in depth, I had different opinions and found that one of these common behaviors is the habit of filtering (过滤)--holding back from saying something until you've "checked" to make sure that what you're about to say is cool, impressive and interesting. Another problem is not learning to get in the mood for conversation. If you don't know how to change from subjects, then it can take a lot of time to warm up.It is the reflex (习惯性思维) that allows you to say whatever goes on in your mind. It's fun to realize that you're allowed to say whatever is on your mind. As long as you don't say anything that could land you in jail (监狱).All of the "Oh! That's interesting…" "Hmm, I've never heard of that" "Hmm, cool!" expressions are reactionary (保守的) bits of conversation that prove to the other person that you're really listening. This works 99% of the time. So, if you show some interest, they'll hang around and want to talk to you even more.Everyone knows that stories juice-up conversations, but most people only talk about stories of their own lives. When someone mentions something related to any of them, just tell the story, even if it's not from your life. The more interesting, stranger or more frightening they are, the harder they are to forget.(1)If people can deal with the awkward silence, they can .A. train their working skillB. improve their life qualityC. enrich their social lifeD. establish their working relationship(2)When talking with others, we should .A. feel nervousB. think twiceC. be free to expressD. avoid breaking in (3)According to the passage, what do the speakers care much about?A. The attractive topics of conversation.B. The atmosphere of the conversation.C. The listener's experiences and tastes.D. The listener's curiosity and concern.(4)What does the underlined part "juice-up conversations" mean?A. making conversations more boringB. making conversations livelierC. making conversations smootherD. making conversations more relaxing【答案】(1)C(2)C(3)D(4)B【解析】【分析】本文本文是一篇议论文,我们谈话时最大的问题之一是尴尬的沉默。
高考英语《阅读理解+读后续写》真题含答案Ⅰ.阅读理解Athe four basic steps used to persuade potentials to make a purchase. The first three steps lie in creating attention (A), decorating interest (I), and building desire (D) for the product, before the fourth step—the “call to action” (A)—tells them exactly how and where to buy. AIDA can channel the customer's feelings through each stage toward reaching a sale.Attracting the customer's attention is the first challenge and this may be achieved by using an attracting phrase or picture. Once someone's attention has been clutched,__it must be turned into real interest. This is best done by providing a brief description of the product's benefits to the consumer rather than simply listing the product's main features or problemsolving claims.Now, it is time to transform that interest into a desire for a product or service. This is where consumers need to believe their lives could be better by possessing the product. It could be a vital step towards turning a potential into a real customer.“Calltoaction” is where all of the initial hard work pays off and leads to the action from a potential customer. For example, they might pick up the phone to discuss the idea of a trial of the services or, alternatively, they may just buy that product or service that has been promoted to them all along.And AIDA is used to great effect in the movie industry. Movie studios begin their marketing campaigns months in advance. The campaigns develop by offering attractive flashes of the movie without giving too much away. Desire is inspired by the release of the full preview which is fully designed to show the exciting moments of the movie, from special effects to humorous lines of dialogue on the opening weekend. Advertisements in newspapers and on television focus on the movie's release, inviting the consumer to go and buy a ticket.【语篇解读】本文主要介绍了现代市场营销和广告实践的基础——AIDA模式,重点介绍了该模式的运作原理。
I think adults are affected by media, songs, and the Internet, and that is hard enough. After looking in all of the magazines and at models, my friends and I agree that our least favorite day of the year is when we wear swimsuits! It affects your whole mood and self-image for the day. Think about how hard it is for young girls if they believe “how hot you look” is how valuable you are.Here are some ways parents can be proactive in encouraging a healthy self-image in their children.First, teach what real value is. I think kids sometimes are confused about values. How valuable you are is not measured by how pretty you are on the outside and success is not measured by how famous you are. We were watching the Oscars and my 6-year-old son said “She is so pretty,” and then quickly looked at me and said “You are prettier, Mom.” And I said, “It’s okay. There are many people prettier than me on the outside. I know that’s not why you love me.” It is important to teach children this from an early age.Second, tell your kids about “the grass is always greener syndrome.” It is very easy for all of us to see the glamour (魅力), whether it be in a famous singer or the most popular girl in the school. Do not dehumanize and judge famous people. Talk about what problems they might have that are different from the problems your child has and maybe some of the same struggles, like maybe wanting acceptance from peers (同龄人).At last, use your mouth. Don’t be afraid to have conversations with your child about how they’re feeling about ads, songs, etc... Boys too! You are the parent! Kids of all ages want and need boundaries whether they admit it or not. Take a stand and have confidence enough not to be followers and not to purchase clothing, music, or magazines that you don’t believe sends the right message to your children!1.What does the underlined word “It” in Paragraph 1 refer to?A.Singing with friends.B.Learning swimming skills. C.Showing imperfect figures.D.Reading fashion magazines.2.The author’s son said “You are prettier, Mom” probably .A.to praise his mother B.to comfort his motherC.because he didn’t like stars D.because he really thought so 3.What syndrome is mentioned in Paragraph 4?A.Lots of people like judging others.B.Kids want to be popular in school.C.People tend to like famous singers.D.People always think others’ life is better.4.In the last paragraph, the author advises parents to .A.set limits for their kidsB.make friends with their kidsC.teach their kids how to be confidentD.encourage their kids to be themselves.People from East Asia tend to have more difficulty than those from Europe in distinguishing facial expressions — and a new report published online in Current Biology explains why.Rachael Jack, University of Glasgow researcher, said that rather than scanning evenly(均匀的) across a face as Westerners do, Easterners fix their attention on the eyes."We show that Easterners and Westerners look at different face features to read facial expressions," Jack said. "Westerners look at the eyes and the mouth in equal measure, whereas Easterners favor the eyes and neglect (忽略) the mouth."According to Jack and her colleagues, the discovery shows that human communication of emotion is more complex than previously believed. As a result, facial expressions that had been considered universally recognizable cannot be used to reliably convey emotion in cross-cultural situations.The researchers studied cultural differences in the recognition of facial expressions by recording the eye movements of 13 Western Caucasian and 13 East Asian people while they observed pictures of. expressive faces and put them into categories: happy, sad, surprised, fearful, disgusted, angry, or neutral. They compared how accurately participants read those facial expressions using their particular eye movementstrategies.It turned out that Easterners focused much greater attention on the eyes and made significantly more errors than did Westerners. "The cultural difference in eye movements that ____show is probably a reflection of cultural difference in facial expressions," Jack said. "Our data suggest that whereas Westerners use the whole face to convey emotion, Easterners use the eyes more and mouth less."In short, the data show that facial expressions are not universal signals of human emotion. From here on, examining how cultural factors have diversified these basic social skills will help our understanding of human emotion. Otherwise, when it comes to communicating emotions across cultures, Easterners and Westerners will find themselves lost in translation.5.The discovery shows that Westerners .A.pay equal attention to the eyes and the mouthB.consider facial expressions universally reliableC.observe the eyes and the mouth in different waysD.have more difficulty in recognizing facial expressions6.What were the people asked to do in the study?A.To make a face at each other.B.To get their faces impressive.C.To classify some face pictures.D.To observe the researchers' faces. 7.What does the underlined word "they" in Paragraph 6 refer to?A.The participants in the study.B.The researchers of the study.C.The errors made during the study.D.The data collected from the study.8.In comparison with Westerners, Easterners are likely to .A.do translation more successfullyB.study the mouth more frequentlyC.examine the eyes more attentivelyD.read facial expressions more correctly9.What can be the best title for the passage?A.The Eye as the Window to the SoulB.Cultural Differences in Reading EmotionsC.Effective Methods to Develop Social SkillsD.How to Increase Cross-cultural UnderstandingPastime is a bi-monthly magazine for curious young minds. Many of the topics we write about won’t be covered in the classroom. All the articles are written in a lively style, and each one is paired with drawings by some of the country’s most talented artists.◆ History focuses on archaeological (考古的) sites around the world where archaeologists work to unearth important finds.◆ World includes stories about daily life, folk tales, history and traditions of the people and places.◆ Sport includes nutrition tips, information about up-and-coming young athletes, and sports events.◆ Art stimulates a child’s cultural life, from film to theatre through to writing and music.On top of all that, Pastime is packed with items to stimulate a youngster’s imagination, including pages of puzzles and a step-by-step guide to creating their own impressive-looking drawings.In every issue, we review the latest books top authors write for youngsters. There are also short works of fiction written especially for Pastime by some of our best writers.We know that children at this age are dealing with many emotions and sometimes difficult feelings, so we have a personal advice page to reply to questions dealing with personal and moral problems.Unlike many of today’s throwaway comics, Pastime is written and designed to be kept and treasured. We know children love going online—but we also know how much they enjoy holding a printed magazine in their hands and the excitement they get when each new issue drops through the letterbox personally addressed to them.SubscriptionPastime is published six times a year.

I had never seen anything like it before, and I was interested in it. So I started searchingall sorts of phrases that might throw light on the mystery of Polish beach separators. I found a site on Poland's affairs that actually covered this"phenomenon"in details. According to the site, beach separators have been a part of Polish beach-going culture for a long time, but have recently been getting a lot of attention online, after foreign tourists started posting photos on social networks. Beach separators vary in size according to the size of the group. You'll see tiny ones only surrounding the space around a single beach towel, and giant ones separating a large part of the beach. They weren't designed to protect their users from prying(窥探) eyes. It's no secret that strong winds are very common on the shores of the Baltic Sea, so they were originally meant to allow beach-goers to enjoy sunbathing without having their belongings blown away, or sand blown in their faces.However, in recent years, people have begun criticizing them. During the summer, beach separators are placed so close to each other that a person can hardly pass between them, let alone find a place to put their own beach towels. This creates a problem for foreign tourists unfamiliar with them, who just want a place to lie down on the sand. And thus they can easily create all kinds of conflicts due to the lack of space. For example, some people leave the beach for hours but leave their separators in place to make sure that their space doesn't get occupied by someone else.Having visited a fair number of seaside resorts across Europe,I admit that I have never seen anything like this before.15.What attracted the author's attention according to the first paragraph?A.Some phrases.B.The cloth walls.C.The sand patches.D.The colorful stones.16.Why did the beach-goers set up separators?A.To attract others' attention.B.To keep themselves in private.C.To stop winds disturbing them.D.To protect themselves from sunburn.17.What seems to be the problem with beach separators?A.They cause plenty of garbage.B.They make the beach overcrowded.C.They leave their separators unattended.D.They lead to many crimes against foreigners.18.What's the author's purpose of writing this passage?A.To encourage the local tourism in Poland.B.To urge the tourism department to face the beach problem.C.To discuss the possibilities of solving the beach problem.D.To introduce a kind of Polish beach culture.参考答案:1.C2.B3.D4.A【解析】【分析】本文是一篇议论文。
(英语)高考英语阅读理解题20套(带答案)含解析一、高中英语阅读理解1.阅读理解Durian(榴莲)is probably the smelliest fruit in the world, letting out an unusual unpleasant smell which would make anyone bring up. However, nobody was aware of what gave this fruit its unique smell, so a team of researchers from Singapore decided to take a look at its genome ( 基因组)and find out,Durian is well-known throughout Southeast Asia as the king of fruits, mostly because of its awful appearance and smell. However, the origin of this unpleasant smell was unknown, so researchers decided to map the genome of the fruit, and find the gene that controlled it. A group of genes, volatile sulfur compounds ( 含硫化合物),became very active in the fruit, and they were found responsible for resulting in the unpleasant smell.The fruit confuses everyone with a sulfuric smell, like rotten onions and ingredients. The smell lasts long, mostly because the fruit contains more volatile sulfur compounds. Other species usually benefit from two gene copies at most, but durian has four, leading to the striking smell.However, this smell might be an advantage for durian in the wild. Although we find it unpleasant, many animals might be attracted by it. If they eat the fruit, then they can easily spread its seeds everywhere, thus contributing to the distribution of the species.The mapping of the durian genome also showed some other information on the species. First of all, the fruit has an impressive number of genes, namely 46,000. Also, with the help of these genes, they saw how it evoked, and discovered it was related to the cacao tree. All the other discoveries have been published in the journal Nature Genetics.Despite the striking smell, many people actually enjoy eating the fruit. However, not all durian species are edible, and some of them may even cause damage to our health, Even so, the fruit is often imported, significantly contributing to the economy.(1)What give durian its unique smell?A. Onions nearby.B. Two gene copies.C. Rotten ingredients in it.D. Volatile sulfur compounds.(2)What does the underlin ed word a evolved " in Paragraph 5 probably mean?A. Developed.B. Escaped.C. Predicted.D. Tolerated.(3)What can we infer from the text?A. No birds enjoy eating durian.B. Durian can be planted all over the world.C. Some of durian species can not be eaten.D. Durian has no relationship with the cacao tree.(4)What's the best title for the text?A. What's Durian?B. The Influence of the SmellC. The Distribution of DurianD.

⾼考英语阅读理解模拟练习及答案⾼考英语阅读理解模拟练习及答案 多做英语阅读理解模拟题可帮助⼤家熟悉解题⽅法,为了帮助⼤家,⼩编分享了⼀些⾼考英语阅读理解题及答案,欢迎阅读! 英语阅读理解(1) Have you ever wondered why you sometimes take an almost immediate liking to a person you have just met? We often get the first impression of a people based on the color of a person’s skin or the manner in which he or she dressed. Meaning is conveyed not only by words or verbal languages but also by nonverbal communication systems, such as body behaviors. Nonverbal communication is important because we use the actions of others to learn about their affective emotional states .Our emotions are reflected in our posture, face, and eyes—be it fear, joy, anger, or sadness—so we can express them without ever saying a word .For this reason, most of us rely heavily on what we learn through our eyes. Nonverbal communication is significant in human interaction because it is usually responsible for the first impressions. More importantly, those first messages usually influence the perception(感知) of everything else that follows. Even how we select friends and sexual partners is grounded in first impressions with nonverbal communication. Nonverbal communication is important because it is culture-related. It is based on different beliefs, religions, values and customs in different cultures. When, where, how, and to whom people display his or her specific nonverbal behaviors is greatly affected by culture and context. Culture determines what the appropriate nonverbal behavior is. For example, feelings of friendship exist everywhere but their expression varies. It may be appropriate in some countries for man to embrace each other and for women to hold hands; in other countries these displays of affection may be shocking. Each culture has its own specific interpretation on nonverbal communication. What is acceptable in one culture may be completely unacceptable in another. One culture may determine that snapping fingers to call a waiter is acceptable; another may consider this gesture rude. 1. What is the best title of the passage? A. Nonverbal communication and first impression B. Nonverbal communication is culture-related C. Nonverbal and verbal communication D. The importance of nonverbal communication 2. We can know a person’s feeling through our eyes because_________. A. we can see a person’s feeling on his face. B. a person’s emotions can be reflected through eyes. C. a person’s feeling can be reflected through his body languages D. we can see a person’s feeling through his posture 3. Which of the following statements is not True? A. Meaning can be conveyed both by words and body language. B. We can use nonverbal communication to learn about a person’s emotional states. C. We often get the first impression by what a person says. D. The first impression can affect what we will do in the following. 4. How many reasons are mentioned in the text to show nonverbal communication is important?A. 2B. 3C. 4D.5 5.

最新高考英语阅读理解练习题(及答案)一、高中英语阅读理解1.阅读理解A society that lives by the plastic fork may very well die from it. That's how things are looking. Anyway, for a world so used to disposable(一次性的) habits, any hope for a solution(解决方案) also increasingly seems to be buried.Sure, there have been some hopeful ideas. Boyan Slat, the Dutch inventor developed a plan for Covering the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. Not long after it started, Slat's system experienced "material fatigue(疲劳)"-likely the result of being strained(使受到压力) by all that trash-and the task was delayed.All the while, the plastic increases. Its growth is very fast, according to Linda Wang, a professor of chemical engineering at Purdue University. She says, "We'll have more plastic than fish by 2050." Yet Wang, along with other researchers at Purdue, may have a solution not only to this plastic problem, but also to the growing need for clean energy. Her team has developed a system that turns waste, a durable, lightweight material that accounts for about a quarter of all plastic waste, into a highly pure form of gasoline.Publishing their findings in the journal Sustainable Chemistry and Engineering, the scientists' state that instead of making plastic go away, they can break it down and reuse it, using chemistry to destroy what chemistry brought to the world when plastic was developed back in 1907.The process uses "supercritical" water-heated to around 450 degrees Celsius (842 degrees Fahrenheit),beyond the key point at which distinct liquid and vapor phases(气液态) exist-to boil plastic waste into an oil, the researchers explain. It takes a couple of hours for the supercritical water to complete the transformation, but the result is a kind of oil that can be used as gasoline or fuel. It can also be turned into other products.The researchers have only made the transformation in a laboratory setting so far, but they suggest turning the process to a commercial scale(规模) may not be far off. And considering the 300 million tons of plastic into the environment every year, that day can't come soon enough. But it will come in time.(1)Why is the plastic fork mentioned in paragraph 1?A. To indicate the hopeless future of human life.B. To figure out the solution to reducing plastics.C. To show the seriousness of the plastic problem.D. To tell people to give up an unhealthy lifestyle.(2)What can we know about Slat's system?A. It proves harmful to the Pacific.B. It has been abandoned completely.C. It has received many people's opposition.D. It met with difficulty while being carried out.(3)What is the advantage of Wang's system?A. It can save fish in the ocean.B. It can recycle and reuse plastic.C. It can surely lower the prices of gas and fuel.D. It can make plastic products more affordable.(4)What is the author's attitude towards Wang's system?A. Hopeful.B. Disapproving.C. Cautious.D. Uncertain.【答案】(1)C(2)D(3)B(4)A【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了Linda Wang的新系统,它可以回收利用塑料。
(1)考查推理判断。
根据第一段中的“That's how things are looking. Anyway, for a world so used to disposable habits, any hope for a solution also increasingly seems to be buried.”可知,人们习惯了使用像塑料叉子之类的塑料制品,以至于找到解决塑料问题的解决方案的机会很渺茫。
由此可推断,文章提到塑料叉子是为了表明塑料问题的严重性。
故选C。
(2)考查推理判断。
根据第二段中的“Not long after it started,Slat's system experienced' material fatigue likely the result of being strained by all that trash.” 在启动后不久,Slat的系统就经历了“材料疲劳”,这可能是所有垃圾造成的。
可推断,Slat的系统在实施的过程中遇到了困难。
故选D。
(3)考查细节理解。
根据第三段中的“Yet Wang, along with other researchers at Purdue, may have a solution not only to this plastic problem, but also to the growing need for clean energy. Her team has developed a system that turns waste, a durable, lightweight material that acco unts for about a quarter of all plastic waste, into a highly pure form of gasoline.”然而,王和普渡大学的其他研究人员可能不仅解决了这个塑料问题,而且解决了对清洁能源日益增长的需求。
她的团队已经开发出一种系统,可以将废物(一种耐用、重量轻的材料,约占所有塑料废物的四分之一)转化为高纯度的汽油。
可知,Wang的系统可以回收利用塑料。
故选B。
(4)考查推理判断。
根据最后一段中的“…that day can't come soo n enough. But it will come in time.”那一天来得越早越好。
但它迟早会到来。
可推断,作者对Wang的系统满怀希望。
故选A。
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解和推理判断两个题型的考查,是一篇环保类阅读,考生需要准确捕捉细节信息,并根据上下文进行逻辑推理,从而选出正确答案。
