语鹅市安置阳光实验学校四川省成都市2016高考英语阅读理解二轮基础训练80集连载（63）【2015高考复习】阅读理解For many people，volunteering is a way of life.Holidays are the time of the year that more people are in a giving mood.Homeless shelters，children’s hospitals，and nursing homes are excellent places to give of one’s time.Volunteering in Homeless SheltersThere is a homeless directory online that anyone can easily access to find the closest homeless shelter to their home.According to the homeless shelter directory，currently there are 3,233 shelters in the US，so it is not difficult to find a shelter.Helping to serve food，picking up donations of food，preparing meals，and cleaning up are things that one can do to help at a homeless shelter.Volunteering in Children’s HospitalsEvery child needs comfort and joy，especially during the holiday seasons.By visiting sick children in hospitals，an individual provides helping hands by supplementing the services usually done by the hospital staff.Personalizing the hospital experience adds to the comfort and happiness of the children and their families.Volunteers provide help，and positive interactions (相互交流) which enhance the patient’s quality of care.Help is needed almost everywhere in a hospital；from the lobby，parking lot，cafeteria，to admitting，helping with the gift cart，and even reading to children in the waiting rooms or their hospital rooms. Volunteering in Nursing HomesAccording to the National Center for Health Statistics，“Over 50% of those living in nursing homes do not have close relatives and 46% have n o living children.” Life in a nursing home is lonely，confusing，and frightening for many residents.Volunteering at a nursing home is a great opportunity to make a difference in someone else’s life.Playing cards，sitting with and talking to a resident，taking a walk，or sharing a meal makes a huge difference，especially when they have no other sole on earth to visit them.The three examples above are only a small fraction of institutions in which volunteers are needed.Giving of oneself，especially during the holidays blesses and cheers others.【语篇解读】本文介绍了人们在假期中可以选择去做志愿活动的三个地方。

Something that hasalways interested me about Abraham Lincoln is, not surprisin gly, his sense of humor. As far as I can tell, he’s the first Amer ican President to have one.That’s because the term“sense of humor”really wasn’t in com mon usage until the eighteen sixties and seventies. In the eig hteen forties and fifties, it was called“the sense of the ridiculo us”, and didn’t have the positive connotations(隐含意义)that“sense of humor”has today. Back then, what was ridicu lous was what invited ridicule(讥笑). Funniness and cruelty went hand in hand. Of course, they still do a lot of arm-in-arm walking in our day as well.’s humor was very different because, for one thing, it was actu ally“humor”as what the word meant in his time. We don’t mak e the distinction between“wit(风趣)”and“humor”anymore; but in the nineteenth century people did. Wit was unpleasant and offensive while humor was pleas ant and sympathetic. It’s the difference we note now when wedistinguish between“laughing with”and“laughing at”. was mu ch more about“laughing with”than“laughing at”. And when“lau ghing at”, it was often himself he was teasing.In the famous Lincoln-Douglas debate, when Douglas accused Lincoln of being two-faced, replied, referencing his plain looking, “Honestly, if I we re two-faced, would I be showing you this one? ”And, in a way, ’s fac e itself tells us much about his sense of humor.You can comb through thousands of photographs of politician s, soldiers, and the like from ’s time and not find a single smile .True, the long exposures(曝光)required for photographs of that time made smiling difficult. Yet alone, as far as I can tell, overcame that difficulty.Interestingly, while having a sense of humor, or at least the appear ance of one provided by comedy writers, has become a neces sary characteristic for an American President in our time, in th e nineteenth century, too much humor was considered a probl em. And that was the case for . A journalist covering the Linco ln-Douglas debate commented that“I could not take a real personal liking to the man, owing to an inborn weakness for which h e was even then notorious and so remained during his great p ublic career, he was extremely fond of jokes, anecdotes, and stories. ”【文章大意】说起第16任美国总统亚伯拉罕·林肯, 很多人会立即想起他对解放黑奴和维护美利坚联邦完整所做出的巨大贡献, 想起他能言善辩的口才和妙语连珠的演讲, 但却很少有人知道, 林肯的“幽默感”也开创了一个新时代。

【2016高考训练】At one time no one could travel on an English road faster than four miles an hour. That was the law until 1896. A man had to walk in front of a car which could not go faster than the man. At night the man had to carry a red lamp.Once Charles Rolls brought a car from France to England, but he wanted to drive faster than four miles an hour. In order to have no trouble with the police, he had a talk with some of the police officers, who ordered their policemen to look the other way when the car came along the road. This was a good plan in the country, but not so easy to follow in the busy streets of London.One night Rolls and some friends started from London on their journey to Cambridge. One of the men walked in front with the red lamp, but he walked as fast as he could. The police became very interested in walls and shop-fronts when they heard the car and not one of them saw it.They reached a hill, but what a waste of time it was to drive down the hill at four miles an hour! Rolls was getting ready to jump into the car, but then he noticed a policeman who was not looking the other way. The slow car reached him. “Good evening,” said the policeman, looking at the car.“Good evening,” said Rolls, holding the lamp.“One of these horseless things,” said the policeman, looking at it with interest.“Yes,” said Rolls, and waited.“I’ve often wanted a ride in one, but of course policemen can’t buy things like that.” He turned and looked hopefully in Rolls’s face.“Jump in,” said Rolls.“Thanks,” said the policeman, and did so. “Now,” he said, sitting down, “You can let it go just as you like down this hill. There isn’t another policeman on this road for a mile and a half.”1．The po licemen were told “to look the other way” so that _______.A. they could watch the car coming from the other directionB. Rolls’s car could go faster than four miles an hourC. they could make sure no one was in the wayD. the car would not hit them on the road2．In what way did the policemen carry out the order from their officers?A. They greeted Rolls when the car came along.B. They walked in front of the car with a red lamp.C. They pretended to be attracted by something else.D. They stood on duty every 1.5 miles along the road.3．The policeman who said “Good evening” to Rolls wanted to _______.A. teach Rolls a lessonB. take a free ride homeC. have a talk with RollsD. have a car ride experience4．After the policeman jumped into the car, Rolls _______.A. dared not drive the car faster than he was allowed toB. could drive as fast as he wished within a certain distanceC. could drive on any road he liked for the rest of the journeyD. drove his car as fast as he could down the hill to Cambridge参考答案1—4、BCDB阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项。

AOne of the most wonderful things about having a positive attitude is that it can touch many people in the course of everyday life.Recently I stopped by a store to get a newspaper and a bottle of juice. The young woman at the check-out counter said, “That‟ll be three dollars in all please.”She then glanced down at the paper I was buying and said, “I‟m sick and tired of all the negative material on the front pages. I want to read s ome good news for a change.”She then said, “In fact, I think someone should publish a Good News newspaper——a paper with wonderful, inspirational stories about people overcoming difficulties and doing good things for others. I‟d buy one every day!”She then thanked me for coming in and said, “Maybe we‟ll get lucky tomorrow; maybe we‟ll get some good news!”We both laughed, and I thought: she just made my day.The following day after work I dropped by the same store again to pick up bottled water and a newspape r; but a different young lady was behind the counter. As I checked out I said, “Good afternoon”, and handed her my money . she said nothing, and didn‟t smile or make a gesture. She just handed me my change and said in a bored voice, “Next!”It hit me right between the eyes. Two people, the same age; one had made me feel great , while the other had made me feel that I had inconvenienced her by showing up.The choices we make and attitudes we show influence lives every day in positive or negative ways. So eve ry morning you should ask yourself:“Who do I want to be today—…The Grouch(不高兴的人)‟or …The Good News Girl‟?”Your answer will go a long way toward determining the quality of your life and that of those around you.1.

We make sure they are unforgettable!Shadow Ridge Summer Camps offer so many exciting things for campers to do. Unlike other camp programs that include horses as a small part of their program, at Shadow Ridge horses ARE, the program! We are 100% horse from stable(马厩)management, nature walks, and track rides to bedroom furnishings.Horses help us achieve many of our aims. Girls can learn to develop responsibility, self-confidence and personal connections in their lives while having fun. Using horses as a wonderful tool for education, our camps offer an interesting place for growth and learning.Imagine each girl having her very own horse to spend time with and a best friend to love and take care of. Each camper is responsible for a horse for the week. Our riding program provides a lot of riding and lesson time. Campers will learn how to take care of the horse and the tack(马具), as well as how to ride. Days are filled with horse-related activities to strengthen the connection between each girl and horse, as the girls learn to work safely around the horses.At Shadow Ridge we try to create a loving, caring family atmosphere for our campers. We have “The Bunkhouse”(4 girls), the“ Wranglers Roost”(4 girls), and “The Hideout”(2 girls)in our comfortable 177-year-old farm house. All meals are home cooked, offering delicious and healthy food for the hungry rider.Our excellent activities create personalized memories of your child's vacation, Each child will receive a camp T-shirt and a photo album (usually 300-500 pictures) of their stay at camp.Our camps are offered during June, July and August 2007, for small groups of girls aged 13-16 years, not only from Canada but also other parts of the world.We will send you full program descriptions at your request.5.

The passage is written mainly for ________.A. horse ridersB. teenage girlsC. Canadian parentsD. international travelersCBuses are celebrating their 100th anniversary. About 80 percent of all public-transport passengers worldwide are carried by buses.The bus is a very efficient mode of transport, being cheap, flexible, comfortable and, in many cases, tailored to the needs of users both in terms of capacity and speed. Buses operate in mixed traffic, and are easy to put in service.From an economic, environmental and social point of view, the bus remains the best solutionto the problem of achieving balanced and environmentally-friendly urban development. Indeed, the bus is the only mode of public transpor t in many of the world‟s cities, and plays a key supporting role in cities with rail transport.Over the past decades, increased use of roads by private cars has contributed to terrible traffic problems, affecting the speed of buses as well, and hence their service quality, reliability, energy consumption, and economy. In such circumstances, the efficiency and performance of buses depends heavily on special lanes. V arious forms are possible----from a mere painted mark on the road to more expensive variants such as elevated lanes, movable barriers, and “bus locks”.A related trend is to look beyond vehicle technology alone and to consider the wider system, of which buses are a part, such as the infrastructure(基础设施)and other operational aspects of city. This i s commonly known and promoted as the “bus-system approach”. Other key innovations(革新) include clean engines, alternative fuels, and guidance devices. In terms of the designs of buses, much of what has happened to light rail can be transferred to them, including the shapes of the vehicles themselves.The energy consumption of a bus per passenger is one-sixth that of a car, and buses are only responsible for about 5% of the CO2 emissions generated by vehicles at present.9. From this passage we learn that .A. buses are the most environmentally-friendly of all motorized vehiclesB. buses were first used more than a century agoC. most passengers prefer trains to busesD. a bus has a much larger capacity than any other vehicle10. What has affected the service quality of buses?A. Unsuitable infrastructure.B. Private cars.C. The increasing population of cities.D. Very rapid urban development.11. Which of the following is an approach to improving bus service?A. Improving the speed of buses.B. Reducing the number of private cars.C. Setting up special lanes for buses.D. Increasing the number of buses.12. From the passage we can infer that in the future .A. there will be more buses than todayB. bus engines will need no powerC. buses will be replaced by other means of transportD. the appearance of buses will changeDIt‟s not a particular brain region that makes someone smart or not smart. Nor is it the strength and speed of the connections throughout the brain or such features as total brain volume. Instead, new research shows, it‟s the connections between very specific areas of the brain that determine intelligence.“General intelligence actually relies on a specific network inside the brain, and this is the connections between the gray matter, or cell bodies, and the white matter, or connecting fibers between neurons(神经元)，”said Jan Glascher, lead author of a paper appearing in this week‟s issue of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.The results w eren‟t entirely unexpected, said Keith Young, vice chairman at Texas A﹠M Health Science Center College of Medicine in Temple, but “it proves that good communication between various parts of brain are very important for this general intelligence.”“People n oticed a long time ago that, in general, people who are good test-takers did well in a lot of different subjects,”explained Young. “If you‟re good in mathematics, you‟re also usually good in English. Researchers came up with this idea that this represented a kind of overall intelligence.”Hoping to learn more, some experts located 241 patients who had some sort of their lesions (损害). They then diagrammed the location of their lesions and had them take IQ testes. “We took patients who had parts of their brain damaged, tested them on intelligence to see where they were good and where they were bad, then we connected those scores across all the patients with the location of the brain lesions,”Glascher explained. “That way, you can know the areas that are associated with reduced performance on these tests, which means these areas are really important for general intelligence.”“These s tudies suggest results based on the absence of brain tissue (组织),”added PaulSanberg, famous professor and director of the University of South Florida Center. “It allows them to systemize and find areas important to intellingence.”13. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. General Intelligence Depend on Brain V olumeB. Scientists Explain Mysteries of IntelligenceC. Science Research Done on Human BrainD. Brain Lesions Cause Patients Stupid14.According to Keith Young, we can infer that .A. the parts of brain are working smooth on their ownB. a person good at maths has obstacles learning languagesC. overall intelligence will make a person successfulD. Jan Glascher‟s article really shocks the world15. Why did experts locate 241 patients with some sort of brain lesions?A. To diagram the location of their lesions.B. To take IQ tests to the patients.C. To know more about the secrets of intelligence.D. To take better care of the patients.16.From the diagram, the experts concluded that .A. the absence of brain tissue will influence intelligenceB. the brain lesions can improve the performanceC. patients with brain lesions will get a high scoreD. Some areas totally determine the ability of intelligenceEToday about 70 countries use Daylight Saving Time(DST). Daylight Saving was first introduced during World War I in Australia. During the world wars, DST was used for the late summers beginning January 1917 and 1942, and the full summers beginning September 1942 and 1943.In 1967, Tasmania experienced a drought. The State Government introduced one hour of daylight saving that summer as a way of saving power and water. Tasmanians liked the idea ofdaylight saving and the Tasmanian Government has declared daylight saving each summer since 1968. Persuaded by the Tasmanian Government, all states except two passed a law in 1971, for a test use of daylight saving. In 1972, New South Wales, South Australia and Victoria joined Tasmania for regular daylight saving, but Queensland did not do so until 1989.Tasmania, Queensland and South Australia have had irregular plans, often changing their dates due to politics or festivals. For example, in 1992, Tasmania extended daylight saving by an extra month while South Australia began extending daylight saving by two weeks for the Adelaide Festival. Special daylight saving plans were made during the sydney 2000 Olympic Games.The differences in daylight saving in Australia continue to cause serious problems in transport and many other social activities. It also reduces the number of hours in the working day that are common to all centers in the country. In particular, time differences along the east coast cause major difficulties, especially for the broadcasters of national radio and television.17.Daylight Saving Time was introduced in Tasmania ________.A. to save water and electricityB. to support government officialsC. to pass a special law in the stateD. to stop the drought in 196718.According to the text, which state was the last to use DST?A. Victoria.B. Queensland.C. South Australia.D. New South Wales.19.What can we learn about DST in some Australian states?A. It lasts for two weeks.B. It is not used in festivals.C. Its plan was changed in 2000.D. It doesn't have fixed dates.20.What do we know about the use of DST from the last paragraph?A. There exist some undesirable effects.B.

Even before my father left us，my mother had to go back to work to support our family. Once I came out of the kitchen, complaining，“Mom, I can’t peel potatoes。

I have only one hand。

"Mom never looked up from sewing. “You get yourself into that kitchen and peel those potatoes，" she told me. “And don’t ever use that as an excuse for anything again!"In the second grade，our teacher lined up my class on the playground and had each of us race across the monkey bars, swinging from one high steel rod to the next。

When it was my turn, I shook my head. Some kids behind me laughed，and I went home crying。

“America’s No.1 Health Problem.” So reads the headline of an article published by the American Institute of Stress that claims the biggest threat to health today is neither cancer nor AIDS. Ther eport says: “It has been estimated（估计）that 75 to 90 percent of all visits to primary care physicians are for stress related problems.”It is no exaggeration（夸张）to say that people today are being attacked by stress. According to the National Consumers L eague, “Work is the top source of stress for adults who have problems and stress in their lives (39%), followed by family (30%). Other sources include health (10%), concern about the economy (9%) and concern about international conflict and terrorism (4%).”However, stress is hardly unique to the United States. A British survey in 2005 estimated that “over half a million individuals in Britain believed in 2004 that they were experiencing work-related stress at a level that was making them ill.” As a result of “work-related stress, depression or anxiety,” there are “an estimated thirteen and a half million reported lost working days per year in Britain.”The picture is no less bleak in mainland Europe. According to the European Agency for Safety and Health at Work, “work-related stress has been shown to affect millions of European workers across all types of employment sectors.” One survey reveale d that there are “about 41 million workers affected by work-related stress each year.”What about Asia? A rep ort issued by a conference held in Tokyo concluded: “Job stress is a common concern among many countries in the world, both developing and industrialized countries.” The report observed that “several countries in East Asia, including China and Korea, have rapidly industrialized and economically grown. These countries now have a lot of concerns on job stress and its harmful effects on workers’ health.”1. The author quoted “America’s No.1 Health Problem.” (Para. 1) in order to ______.A. talk about health problems in AmericaB. introduce the topic of stressC. emphasize the stress in AmericaD. tell readers something about American Institute of Stress答案解析：答案为B。

Feel tired lately?Has a doctor said he can’t find anything wrong with you?Perhaps he sends you to a hospital,but all the advanced equipment there shows there is nothingwrong with you.Then,consider this:you might be in a state of sub-health(亚健康).Sub-health,also called the third state or gray state,is explained as borderline state between health and disease.According to the investigation by the National Organization,over 45 percent of sub-health people are middle-aged or elderly.The percentage is even higher among people who work in management positions as well as students around exam-week.Symptoms(征兆)include a lack of energy,depression,slow reactions,insomnia(失眠),agitation, and poor memory.Other symptoms include shortness of breath,sweating and aching in the waist and legs.The key to preventing and recovering from sub-health,according to some medical experts,is to form good living habits, alternate work and rest, exercise regularly,and take part in open air activities.As for meals,people are advised to eat less salt and sugar.They should also eat more fresh vegetables,fruits,fish because they are rich in nutritional elements—vitamins and trace elements(微量元素)—that are important to the body.Nutrition experts point out that it is not good to eat too much at one meal because it may cause unhealthy changes in the digestive tract(消化道).They also say that a balanced diet is very helpful in avoiding sub-health.1.When you are in a state of sub-health,you should ________.A .stay home and keep silentB. go to a doctor and buy some medicineC. not consider it very seriousD. find out the reasons and relax yourself提示:从全文可以看出，亚健康是身体对压力、疲劳的一种反应，即使最先进的仪器也查不出病因。
