定额市鞍钢阳光实验学校苏州中学2014高考英语阅读理解课外自练题(6)及答案阅读理解Tui Na and Your Emotional HealthIn Traditional Chinese Medicine the body, mind and spirit cannot be divided and so the unique whole-body treatment in Tui Na can also be a useful treatment correcting any imbalances in the body's energy before symptoms and disease can develop. It also works to restore emotional harmony as well as physical health. This is why after a Tui Na treatment many people "feel good". Many people in China use Tui Na regularly to keep healthy and to deal with some specific illnesses.Tui Na is performed on the clothed body and the patient is either lying on a couch or sitting on a chair. Therapists using a variety of strokes or movements will control the intensity and direction of pressure in an exact way. The unique rolling movement in Tui Na is one of the most difficult strokes to learn and students have to practice sometimes for many months on a rice bag before they are allowed to practice on the human body.StressTui Na is of course very useful for treating stress.It distribu tes the energy around the whole body. It is believed that Tui Na moves the strong energy in the tense muscles to the weaker areas, thus making a more balanced body. When your Qi (energy in the body)flow is balanced you feel relaxed and comfortable. Tui Na is especially useful for stiff shoulders and tense neck muscles.EmotionsIn Traditional Chinese Medicine each major organ is linked to an emotion. By balancing the energy in the organ, the relevant emotion will be calmed. When your emotions are out of control, you would usually turn to your doctor or perhaps a psychotherapist. But perhaps some people would not like to be seeing a psychotherapist or feel nervous about discussing their problems with others. With Tui Na one does not need to tell the therapist anything one does not want to. The treatment of Tui Na can deal with the problem itself — although if one does need to talk, then the safe space is there to do so. An active dialogue between the therapist and the patient will help to get a better effect.How the major organs rule your emotionsEach major organ — the heart, the stomach, the spleen, the liver, the bladder, the kidneys, the lungs, etc. —is linked to a relevant emotion. The heart is linked to joy, excitement and sadness. If the heart is out of balance, the patient may dream a lot at night and often forget something important in the day.The stomach and spleen are connected with too much thinking or worrying —over anxiety. When the stomach is out of balance there is often a lackof energy. The patient often feels very tired and has no interest in do-ing anything at all.The liver and gall bladder are linked to anger. In Chinese Medicine the eyes are connected with the liver, and many people who suffer from an-ger often suffer from eye problems. The gall bladder rulesdecision-making and too much energy here can lead to rashness, while if there is too little it can bring about indecision. Where there is a history of depression, the therapist would look to the liver.The bladder and kidneys are linked to fear of all kinds, from simple anxieties and phobias to vague fears and worries.The lungs are connected with feelings of grief and sadness. When there is a history of grief, the therapist would look to the lungs.Tui Na is used in almost all the hospitals in China and very popular among Chinese people. It is a useful and valuable method of restoring Qi balance, when emotional and physical health is out of balance. Tui Na is one of the remaining secrets of Chinese Medicine.1. According to the passage, which statement is TRUE about Tui Na?A. Tui Na is a whole-body treatment and can't be divided into different parts.B. Tui Na can be used to balance the diseases before they can develop in the body.C. Tui Na can bring back not only physical health but also emotional health.D. Tui Na only makes people "feel good" but do not actually cure disease.2. How can the emotion be calmed?A. By linking the organ to an emotion.B. By telling the therapist anything one does not want to.C. By discussing their problems with others.D. By balancing the energy in the relevant organ.3. When the stomach is out of balance, .A. the patient will have a stomachacheB. the patient will have a lot to worry aboutC. the patient will have nothing to doD. the patient will not feel like doing anything【参考答案】1—3、CDD阅读理解----Back in the fifteenth century, in a tiny village near Nuremberg, lived a family with eighteen children.In spite of the hopeless condition, two of the children, Albrecht Durer and Albert, had a dream.They both wanted to pursue their talent for art.After many long discussions, the two boys finally worked out an agreement.They would toss a coin.The loser would go down into the nearby mines and, with his earnings, support his brother who attended the academy.Then, when that brother who won the toss completed his studies, in four years, he would support the other brotherat the academy.Tossing a coin, Albrecht Durer won and went off to Nuremberg.Albert went down into the dangerous mines and, for the next four years, supported his brother, whose work at the academy was almost an immediate sensation (轰动).By the time he graduated, he had earned considerable fees for his outstanding works.When the young artist returned to his village, the Durer family held a festive dinner to celebrate Albrecht’s triumphant(胜利的)homecoming.Albrecht drank a toast to his beloved brother for the years of sacrifice that had enabled him to complete his dream.“And now, Alber t, blessed brother of mine, now it is your turn.Now you can go to Nuremberg to look for your dream, and I will take care of you.”Tears streaming down his pale face, Albert sobbed, “No...no...It is too late for me.Look...look at what four years in the mines have done to my hands!The bones in every finger have been broken at least once, and lately I have been suffering from arthritis(关节炎)so badly in my right hand that I cannot even hold a glass to return your toast, much less draw delicate lines with a pen or a brush.”To show thanks to Albert for all that he had sacrificed, Albrecht Durer painstakingly drew his brother’s injured hands with palms together and thin fingers stretched skyward.He called his powerful drawing simply “Hands”, but the entire world almost immediately opened their hearts to his great masterpiece and renamed it “The Praying Hands”.The next time you see a copy of that touching creation, let it be your reminder—no one ever makes any success alone!【文章大意】本文叙述了有两个兄弟家境贫困,通过扔硬币来决定了弟弟Albrecht Durer去学习艺术了,哥哥 Albert要去危险的矿井干活供弟弟上学。

阅读下列四篇短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。
Do you know of anyone who uses the truth to deceive(欺骗)?When someone tells you something that is true,but leaves out important information that should be included,he can give you a false picture.For example,someone might say, ''I just won a hundred.dollars on the lotter y(彩票).It was great.I took that dollar ticket back to the store and turned it in for one hundred dollars!".This guy's a winner,right? Maybe,maybe not.We then discover that he bought$200 worth of tick ets, and only one was a winner.He’s really a big loser! He did n't say anything that was false,but he left out important information on purpose.That's called a half-truth.Half truths are not technically lies,but they are just as dishonest.Some politicians often use this trick.Let’s say that during Gove rnor Smith’s last term,her state lost one million jobs and gained three million jobs.Th en she seeks another term.One of her opponents says, “Durin g Governor Smith’s term,the state lost one million jobs!”That’s true.However,an honest statement would have been,“During Governor Smith’s term, the state had a net gain of two million jobs.”Advertisers will sometimes use half-truths.It's against the law to make false statements so they try to mislead you with the truth.An advertisement might say,''Nine out of ten doctors advised their patients to take Yucky Pill s to cure toothache.'' It fails to mention that they only asked te n doctors and nine of them work for the Yucky Company.This kind of deception happens too often.It’s a sad fact of life :Lies are lies,and sometimes the truth can 1ie as well.【小题1】The underlined word“opponents”in Paragraph 3 means .A.enemy B.partner C.cooperator D.assistant【小题2】We may infer that the author believes people should .A:.buy lottery tickets if possible B.make use of half-truthsC.be careful about what they are told D.not trust the Yucky Company【小题3】How many examples does the writer give to show how the truth is used to deceive?A.One. B.Two. C.Three.D.Four.【小题4】Which of the following is true according to the passage?A.Using half truths is against the law.B.Technically,half truths are in fact lies.C.Yucky Pills is a very good medicine for toothache.D.Governor Smith did a good job during her last term.【小题5】M1ich of the following best expresses the main idea of the pass age?A.He’s really a big loser!B.Sometimes the truth can lie as well.C.Advertisers will sometimes use half truths.D.It’s against the law to make false statements.【答案】【小题1】A【小题2】C【小题3】C【小题4】D阅读理解------广告信息类(2013·广州市统考)America's Top 4 Tourist AttractionsBelow you'll find the most popular travel and vacation destinations in the .1.Times Square,New York CityThis Manhattan crossroads of commerce is the top spot on our l ist,thanks to increasing visitors to the Big Apple in 2008 despite th e economic turndown.According to statistics,“80% of visitors to NYC make it a point to visit Times Square.”T otal NYC visits last year were 47 million,giving us an estimate of 37.6 million travelers through the“C ross roads of the World”.2.The Las Vegas Strip,Nev.The“Neon Trail”that makes up the heart of Sin City is also part of the federal government's National Scenic Byways Program,which designates roads based on “archeological,cultural,historic,natural,recreational and scenic qualities”.Hard to say which of these q ualities best describes Vegas,but we can disqualify“natural”.Last year,total visitors to Las Vegas numbered 37.5 million;a poll by the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority found that an average of 80% of visitors had either stayed overnight or gambled(赌博)on the Strip.3.National Mall and Memorial Parks,Washington,D.C.Many of the nation's iconic(图标的)public landmarks are found in the 1,000-plus acres of the National Mall and Memorial Parks,including the Washington Monument,the Lincoln and Jefferson memorials,and the Korean and Vietnam War Veterans memorials.The Smi thsonian Institution's 19 museums are also close to the Mall;last year,the network of free museums drew more than 25 million visitors .4.Faneuil Hall Marketplace,BostonBuilt in 1742 by Peter Faneuil,a wealthy Boston merchant,Faneuil Hall served as a commercial center of the city for centur ies and a site for famous orations(演说),like Samuel Adams' independence-rallying speech to colonists.Faneuil also includes the restored 1 9th-century Quincy Market.Today,shoppers account for a large share of visitors.Faneuil's historic significance vaults it to the status of cultural attraction,attracting 20 million visitors every year.【语篇解读】本文介绍了美国最受欢迎的四个游览胜地——位于纽约市曼哈顿区的时代广场和赌博之城拉斯维加斯、华盛顿的国家广场和纪念公园以及波士顿的法尼尔厅市场。

Ever since they were first put on the market in the early 1990s, genetically modified (GM, 转基因) foods have been increasingly developed and marketed in many countries in the world,mainly on the basis of their promise to end the worldwide food crisis. But can GM technology solve world hunger problems? Even if it would,is it the best solution?Despite what it promises,GM technology actually has not increased the production potential(潜力)of any crop. In fact studies show that the most widely grown GM crop, GM soybeans, has suffered reduced productivity. For instance, a report that analysed nearly two decades of research on major GM food crops shows that GM engineering has failed to significantly increase US crop production.Something else, however, has been on the rise. While GM seeds are expensive, GM companies tell farmers that they will make good profits by saving money on pesticides(杀虫剂). On the contrary, US government data show that GM crops in the US have produced an overall increase in pesticide use compared to traditional crops. “The promise was that you could use less chemicals and boost production. But neither is true,” said Bill Christison, President of the US National Family Farm Coalition.At the same time, the authors of the book World Hunger: Twelve Myths argue that there actually is more than enough food in the world and that the hunger crisis is not caused by production, but by problems in food distribution and politics. These indeed deserve our efforts and money. Meanwhile, the rise in food prices results from the increased use of crops for fuel rather than food, according to a 2008 World Bank report.As a matter of fact,scientists see better ways to feed the world. Another World Bank report concluded that GM crops have little to offer to the challenges of worldwide poverty and hunger, because better ways out are available, among which “green” farming is supposed to be the first choice.主要讲转基因技术并不是解决世界饥饿问题最好的方式。
专题限时集训(六) 阅读理解推理判断之写作意图/目的AI've been a volunteer in the Macmillan@ Glasgow Libraries programme for just over a year. I got involved because I was looking for something to volunteer for after I retired from work. I thought being a Macmillan Cancer Information and Support Volunteer might be a good way to do that by using some of the skills I learned at work.At one time,I felt I made a real difference when a lady came into use the service. She was very upset,but she was not the person with cancer.It was her partner.She had lots of things on her mind.We,together with a counselor,had a chat about her to help deal with all the emotions(情感) she felt.We knew we could arrange something,so we discussed with her what could be done for her family.She was relieved that we could get something arranged for her and liked the fact that we managed to get the ball rolling during her visit.The good thing about having the services in the library is that the environment is non-clinical and therefore more relaxing than the hospital or doctor's surgery.The team in the library are not medically trained.That means we do not use big words or medical terms very often.It's great that the people who volunteer all work well together,helping each other to get a resolution(解决) for people who come in.It's good to have to team at the other end of the phone whenever we get something unusual.It is a pleasure to be able to help as a volunteer.【语篇解读】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。

阅读下列短文,从给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。
(2014·九江模拟)It’s c ommon for parents to feel emotional when the moment comes for their child to leave home and go to university. Even parents who don’t speak about the event are likely to feel a sense of sadness because it’s the end of an era when you and your family were at the c entre of your child’s world. As a parent you’ll probably continue to support your child in different ways, but the main job of raising your child is over. It’s a huge change for everyone involved.There are a few things that you can do to make the transition easier. Plan carefully for your child’s departure and think about how you can help. Many parents take their child to university for the first time. If you decide to do that, be ready to feel a realwrenchwhen the time comes to say goodbye. Your child will probably be as nervous as you are about the moment when you finally say goodbye—but that might not show!Be positive and cheerful about the choice your child has made to continue studying, and plan to leave once you’ve unpacked the car and looked aroun d your child’s new living accommodations. If you can, save your tears for the car—you’ll make things easier on your child and yourself.The more you’ve invested in being a parent, the more you’ll feel a sense of loss, so the sadness you feel now is a sign that you’ve been a good mom or dad. Remind yourself that parenting is all about raising an independent and confident child who functions well without you. If your child quickly settles and starts enjoying himself, you should congratulate yourself.It’s a lso only fair to allow yourself some time to grieve(悲痛). Don’t expect to pick yourself up and move on straight away. But you may decide to find a hobby or sport to fill your extra time. Perhaps you’ve always wanted to learn a new language, go to yoga classes or take up swimming. You may decide to spend more time with family and close friends, who are likely to be feeling the absence of your childas well.Agree on the best approach to staying in touch before your child leaves, and stick to your agreement. Try not to panic if your child doesn’t respond immediately—remember, he is starting a new and busy life.【文章大意】本文主要讲述孩子上大学后, 父母如何避免过度伤心。
1. Why do parents feel sad when their child leaves home for college?A. Because the absence of their child makes them feel lonely.B. Because their child will start a new life in college.C.

黑龙江省大庆市喇中2016高考英语阅读练习——科普环保类lt's a dog's life for the nation's mutts - who are becoming anxious and aggressive through lack of play, experts fear.A study of 4,000 dog owners has found a clear link between limited playtime and behaviour problems, such as being nervous when left alone, disobedience and snapping at other animals. And while researchers can't be sure that playing less is directly to blame, they say that games provide vital intellectual stimulation and exercise. The Bristol University study showed that only one in five owners play with their dogs six times a day. Half play two or three times a day and 10 per cent have just one play session.Mark Evans, former chief vet for the RSPCA, said that dogs are one of the few animals to play into adulthood. He told the Sunday Times: 'There is a clear association in the results. Owners report more potential behaviour problems in dogs that play less.'Emily Blackwell -- who conducted the research uncovered tonight on Channel 4's Dogs:Their Secret Lives - said dogs often enjoy playing so much that they slow down or change strategy to make the fun last longer. The lecturer in canine(犬科动物)welfare hopes that 10,000 people will eventually fill out the survey. This will enable her to firmly establish whether lack of play is affecting dogs' moods - or if their emotional problems put their owners off spending time with them.

The country’s firstskateboard park is located on the grounds of local charity group at the edge of Phnom Penh, the capital.Sports like Khmer boxing and soccer are wildly popular in Cambodia. But Chea, who has been skating for 6 months, says skateboarding has already become the favorite sport.The skateboarders are learning tricks like launching a jump or flying through the air on their narrow wooden boards.A non-governmental organization called Skateistan Cambodia organizes weekly programs at the park. Skateistan started its work in Afghanistan years ago. Rory Burke is working with the group which expanded to Cambodia last year.Rory Burke points out, “Yeah, it’s definitely not a typical Cambodian pastime .and I think the idea of ‘why skateboarding’ exists because it’s not been done before he re. We want to use skateboarding as something saying, ‘ Hey, this is something new and different.’ And that kind of itself becomes a little bit of hook. People see it and they think and they say, ‘wow, what is that?’ and they want to get involved.”Skateistan partners with local groups work with young people . The park is on the grounds of the group known as PSE, where children attend school and learn a trade. There are almost one hundred twenty participants. They all from troubled lives.

They use timers on their kids' showers and have planted drought-tolerant landscaping. But they feel kind of guilt. “I haven’t thought about the pool as much as I probably should,” said Annette Siefert.As California's drought worsens, swimming pools have become a target for those who think the classic backyard greens waste water. Some water districts have banned new pools from being filled and have limited how much water existing pools can use. But some of those agencies are walking back the rules as they make a surprising discovery: Pools aren't the water wasters some have made them out to be. Analysesby various water districts, along with scientific studies, conclude that pools and their surrounding landscapes use about the same amount of water as a lawn(草坪) of the same size. Over time, pools might even use less water. With pool covers, experts say water evaporation(蒸发)can be cut by almost half, making pools significantly less wasteful than grass and about as efficient as drought-tolerant landscaping. Facing complaints over a recent ban on filling pools, the Santa Margarita Water District conducted its own water-use analysis. It found that pools require thousands of gallons of water to fill initially, but they use about 8,000 gallons less water than a traditional landscape after that. By the third year, the analysis found, the savings add up, and a pool's cumulative water use falls below that of a lawn. Water agencies such as the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power have come to similar conclusions. Armed with new information, Santa Margarita Water District officials will reconsider their ban next week.“We want to respect the people's rights to use their property. There are many families we know that have saved for pools,” said Jonathan Volzke, spokesman for the 155,000-customer district. “But at the same time, the reality around us is that we're in the third year of a serious drought, and we don't know if we're in the third year of a three-year drought or the third year of a 10-year dro ught.”【小题1】Annette Siefert feels guilty mainly because of ______.A.being a typical water wasterB.the water-use of their swimming poolC.her control over her kids' showers at homeD.the construction of the drought-tolerant landscaping【小题2】According to analyses and scientific studies, a swimming pool ______. A.had belter be filled up in the beginningB.becomes more efficient against droughtC.isn't what people think to be wasteful of waterD.consumes more water than a lawn of the same size【小题3】What does Jonathan Volzke try to express in the last paragraph? A.He expects the serious drought to come to an end.B.He thinks highly of those who have saved for pools. C.He appeals for reasonable use of the swimming pools. D.He tries to maintain the right to use the swimming pools. 【小题4】What would be the best title for the passage?
