2016届高考英语二轮复习：阅读理解(含七选五)题组 Word版含解析

专题四阅读理解(一)A(2015·吉林省吉林市第三次调测) Finally, I entered the university. Because of my careful savings, I did not have to work during the school year. Then, summer came and it was time to work harder than ever. I continued working as a waitress at night, instructed tennis camps several mornings a week and worked as a secretary for a few hours in the afternoons.I even decided to take a class at a community (社区) college. This class at the community college saved me $650. It was an extremely tiring summer and made me anxious to return to my relatively easy life at the university.During my second and third years of undergraduate schooling, I decided to work about five hours per week in the campus (校园) admissions office answering phones. This provided a little spending money and kept me from drawing my savings out. I wanted to go to Israel to study for 3 weeks, but I hesitated in making this decision because it would cost me $1,600 more to get the credits in Israel. About two weeks later my Mom called to tell me that I had $1,600 in the bank that I had forgotten about! One of my concerns about this trip was not only the cost, but the loss of time to make money; however, I made as much that summer in the ten weeks when I was at home as I had made during the fourteen weeks when I was at home the summer before. The way everything worked together to make this trip possible was one of the most exciting things that have ever happened to me.This experience has shaped me in many important ways. The first thing that I learned was the importance of a strong work ethic (伦理). Working long hours did a lot to develop my character and helped me learn the value of a dollar. It also made me learn how to search for creative ways to settle difficult situations.文章大意：在上大学期间，作者充分利用课余时间从事一些兼职工作，获得了不错的收入，更重要的是，这种工作经历使作者认识到了工作伦理的重要性，并且也学会了如何应对困难局面。

绝密★启用前2016普通高等学校招生全国统一考试（新课标II）英语总评：2016年全国卷II稳中有变，难度适中，全面科学的考查了学生对基础知识的掌握和语言运用的能力。

阅读理解从文体上来看，与前几年的出题思路一致：一篇广告，一篇说明文，两篇记叙文；考查内容全面，其中以细节理解的考查为主，但是推理判断题比重有所增加，主旨大意题、词义猜测题也均有涉及。

七选五重在考查上下文衔接识别。

如何识别正确的生活知识，给出一些建议，这样的话题考生得心应手，因此七选五的常规选项筛选和辨析技巧都能派上用场，良好的时间分配定能攻克此题。

完形填空全文逻辑清晰，上下文线索明了，做题过程比较符合考生所谓“顺”的预期。

偏向词汇辨析考查的明显减少。

我们不难发现，在整体故事情节比较通畅的情况下，语意辨析的难度会降低，而纯粹的词汇辨析又居于少数，因此今年该题重在考查的就是对于语篇的细致理解，并没有在故事情感线索处及近义词辨析方面过多挖坑增加区分度。

全文线索清晰，词汇考查重在语篇理解，词组搭配考查多用基础词汇。

本篇完形填空重在考查语篇理解能力，且不在情节上、词汇考查上大做文章的趋势还是愈发明显的。

语法填空与短文改错与去年的试题难度基本一致。

突出了高考对于重点考点的重点考查，应该说大部分同学都能在这两个部分取得一个不错的分数，动词的时态语态、非谓语动词、名词的单数复数以及不同词性之间的词形转换仍然是我们考查的重点。

最后，从书面表达部分来看，仍然是忙碌的李华，是一篇书信作文中的邀请类作文，应该说也是未来出题的一种趋势，那就是回归到高考题的经典考法上来。

2016高考英语二轮阅读理解练习（1）及答案2016高考英语阅读理解--日常生活类Papa’s Straw HatPapa was a ranger. He worked with horses. He always wore clean clothes with a hat even when he worked. His hat was always the same kind of a cowboy hat- large black hat of heavy wool. He wore his hat full and high. I think he wanted to look taller than he really was.Mama was proud of the way he looked when he wore his hat and his best clothes. But in some way she got the idea that papa would lose his hair if he kept wearing a heavy wool cowboy hat in the hot weather. She began to talk about his hats.“Papa,” she said one day, “why don't you get a nice cool straw hat? That heavy wool cowboy hat may cause losing hair!” Papa laughed at her and explained that the horses wouldn’t recognize him if he changed the hat. But she didn’t believe him.Mama talked and talked about the hat all summer long. At last papa answered, a little angry, “It would not the cowboy hat but a wife’s talking about the hat that makes me lose my hair.”Mama had a very serious look on her face. She went straight out and later came home with a straw hat. It was a bad year for ranger and we didn't have much money. She thought that if she spent the money for a straw hat, papa would wear it. When papa saw the hat, his face got red. Without a word, he pulled the straw hat down over his head until it hid his eyes and went on to train the horses.He was a good ranger and gentle to his horses. But as papa got close to the horses this time, they jumped high into the air, raising their front feet. All of them ran around in the rounded field and then raced toward the barn. Papa began to shout “Woo boys. Steady boys, steady.” But there was nothing equal to.Papa walked back straight to the stove in the kitchen, pushed the straw hat deep downinto the fire then turned to mama, in a way that even frightened me. “Now listen to me, mama. Understand this I will never wear a straw hat or any other kind of hat my horses do not like.” Then he put on his wool cowboy hat and walked out of the house.I never heard mama talk any more about hats. Perhaps, that is why when papa died many years later, there was a round spot on the top of his head where there was no hair.【小题1】According to the passage, a ranger is _______.A．a person wearing a woolen hatB．a position requiring clean clothesC．a person training horses for some purposeD．a person riding a carriage with horses【小题2】Mama bought papa a straw hat because _______.A．most cowboys preferred to wear itB．she was worried about his healthC．a woolen one didn’t suit papaD．it was cheap and she could save money【小题3】What quality can we learn from papa?A．Gentle. B．Patient. C．Committed. D．Modest.【小题4】It can be learned from the story that _______.A．this family were not rich but diligentB．papa didn’t love the straw hat and mamaC．protecting hair was very importantD．a cowboy hat was useful on farming阅读理解。

The hit movie Notting Hill begins with a famous scene。

Hugh Grant bumps into Julia Roberts and pours orange juice all over her。

After the bump，Grant repeatedly says: “ I am so sorry。

I am so sorry。

”36 . If Roberts’character were from Britain then she would probably apologize repeatedly as well-even if the bump were not her fault。

But this doesn’t happen in the film, as Roberts is f rom the US.A report said that three—quarters of British people apologize when they bump into someone in the street - regardless of whether they are responsible or not。

In fact, we Britons use “sorry” in many situations。

For example，if we mishear someone，we say “Sorry？” The person we are talking to will also apologize by replying：“No, I am sorry! 37 。

Use phones respectfullyYou probably spend more time with your smart phone than any other possession. You take it everywhere — to school，to meals, and even to the bathroom，36 But we have to learn to use our phones respectfully or at least without offending others around us. Here are some tips for smart phone usage. Take a look.Use “do not disturb” instead of “vibrate（振动）"Loud vibrations in your pants are disturbing. People can hear your phone vibrate，depending on how severely it vibrates. 37Tell others what you’re doingSometimes, you will be in a situation in which you need to use your smart phone. 38 If you don’t，people will think that you're either interacting with someone else or just getting bored。

A(导学号59430083)Imagine you've had a fight with your best friend.It's a stupid fight，something you will both get over.But right now you are upset.When you walk in the door，your mum asks what's wrong.How are you mostly likely to respond? Have a long，comforting talk about it with her.Or head to the fridge for the ice cream.But can that really help you feel better—or just make you feel sickeningly full?Emotional eating is when people use food as a way to deal with feelings instead of to satisfy hunger.We've all been there，finishing a whole bag of chips or eating cookie after cookie while preparing for a coming exam.But when done a lot—especially without realizing it—emotional eating can affect weight，health，and well－being.One of the biggest beliefs about emotional eating is that it's caused by negative feelings.Yes，people often turn to food when they're stressed out，lonely，sad，anxious，or bored.Nevertheless，emotional eating can be linked to positive feelings too，like the romance of sharing dessert on Valentine's Day or the celebration of a holiday feast.More often，though，it's the countless little daily stresses that cause someone to seek comfort or relaxation in food.We all have our own comfort foods.Amazingly，they may vary according to moods and sex.One study found that happy people seem to want to eat things like pizza，while sad people prefer ice cream and cookies.Bored people desire salty，fragile things，like chips.Girls go for chocolate and ice cream.This brings up a curious question: Does no one take comfort in carrots and cabbages？Researchers are looking into that，too.What they're finding is that high －fat foods，like ice cream，may activate certain chemicals in the body that create a sense of contentment and fulfillment，which may actually make you reach for these foods again when feeling upset.We're all emotional eaters to some extent.But for some people，emotional eating can be a real problem，causing serious problems such as weight gain.Managing emotional eating means finding other ways to deal with the situations and feelings that make someone turn to food.For example，do you come home from schooleach day and automatically head to the kitchen? Stop and ask yourself，“Am I really hungry？” Are you having difficulty concentrating? If these signs point to hunger，choose something light and healthy to take the edge off until dinner.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了情绪化饮食及其带来的问题和解决办法。

ADear Alfred,I want to tell you how important your help is to my life.Growing up, I had people telling me I was too slow, though, with an IQ of 150 at 17, I’m anything but stupid. The fact was that I was found to have ADIID(注意力缺陷多动障碍). Anxious all the time, I was unable to keep focused for more than an hour at a time.However, when something did interest me, I could become absorbed. In high school, I became curious about the computer, and built my first website. Moreover, I completed the senior course of Computer Basics, plus five relevant pre-college courses.While I was exploring my curiosity, my disease got worse. I wanted to go to college after high school, but couldn’t . So, I was killing my time at home until June 2012 when I discovered the online computer courses of your training center.Since then, I have taken courses like Data Science and Advanced Mathematics. Currently, I’m learning your Probability course. I have hundreds of printer paper, covered in self-written notes from your video. This has given me a purpose.Last year, I spent all my time looking for a job where, without dealing with the public , I could work alone, but still have a team to talk to. Luckily, I discovered the job—Data Analyst—this month and have been going full steam ahead. I want to prove that I can teach myself a respectful profession, without going to college, and be just as good as, if not better than, my competitors.Thank you. You’ve given me hope that I can follow my heart. For the firsttime, I feel good about myself because I’m doing something, not because someone told me I was doing good. I feel whole.This is why you’re saving my life.Yours,Tanis56. Why did’t Tanis go to college after high school?A. She had learned enough about computer scienceB. She had more difficulty keeping foucesedC. She preferred taking online coursesD. She was too slow to learn57. AS for the working environment, Tains prefers____.A .working by herself B.dealing with the publicpeting against othersD.staying with ADHD students58. Tanis wrote this letter in order to_____.A. explain why she was interested in the computerB. share the ideas she had for her professionC. show how grateful she was to the centerD. describe the courses she had taken so farBSurviving Hurricane Sandy(飓风桑迪)Natalie Doan,14, has always felt lucky to live in Rockaway, New York. Living just a few blocks from the beach, Natalie can see the ocean and hear the wave from her house. “It’s the ocean that makes Rockaway so special,”she says.On October 29, 2012, that ocean turned fierce. That night, Hurricane Sandy attacked the East Coast, and Rockaway was hit especially hard. Fortunately, Natalie’s family escaped to Brooklyn shortly before the city’s bridge closed.When they returned to Rockaway the next day, they found their neighborhood in ruins. Many of Natalie’s friends had lost their homes and were living far away. All around her, people were suffering, especially the elderly. Natalie’s school was so damaged that she had to temporarily attend a school in Brooklyn.In the following few days, the men and women helping Rockaway recover inspired Natalie. Volunteers came with carloads of donated clothingand toys. Neighbors devoted their spare time to helping others rebuild. Teenagers climbed dozens of flights of stairs to deliver water and food to elderly people trapped in powerless high-rise buildings.“My mom tells me that I can’t control what happens to me,” Natalie says. “but I can always choose how I deal with it.”Natalie’s choice was to help.She created a website page matching survivors in need with donors who wanted to halp. Natalie posted introduction about a boy named Patrick, who lost his baseball card collecting when his house burned down. Within days, Patrick’s collection was replaced.In the coming months, her website page helped lots of kids: Christopher, who received a new basketball; Charlie, who got a new keyboard. Natalie also worked with other organizations to bring much-need supplies to Rockaway. Her efforts made her a famous person. Last April, she was invited to the White House and honored as a Hurricane Sandy Champion of Change.Today, the scars(创痕)of destruction are still seen in Rockaway, but hope is in the air. The streets are clear, and many homes have been rebuilt. “I can’t imagine living anywhere but Rockaway,” Natalie declares. “My neighborhood will be back, even stronger than before.”59. When Natalie returned to Rockaway after the hurricane, she found______.A. some friends had lost their livesB. her neighborhood was destroyedC. her school had moved to BrooklynD. the elderly were free from suffering60.

A friend in need is a friend indeedC. East or West, home is bestD. Technology is powerCCalifornia Condor’s Shocking RecoveryCalifornia condors are North America’s largest birds, with wind-length of up to 3 meters. In the 1980s, electrical lines an d lead poisoning(铅中毒) nearly drove them to dying out. Now, electric shock training and medical treatment are helping to rescue these big birds.In the late 1980s, the last few condors were taken from the wild, and there are now more than 150 flying over California and nearby Arizona, Utah and Baja in Mexico.Electrical lines have been killing them off. “As they go in to rest for the night, they just don’t see the power lines,” says Bruce Rideout of San Diego Zoo. Their wings can bridge the gap between lines, resulting in electrocution(电死) if they touch two lines at once.So scientists have come up with a shocking idea. Tall poles, placed in large training areas, teach the birds to stay clear of electrical lines by giving them a painful but undeadly electric shock. Before the training was introduced, 66% of set-freed condors died of electrocution. This has now dropped to 18%.Lead poisonous has proved more difficult to deal with. When condors eat dead bodies of other animals containing lead, they absorb large quantities of lead. This affects their nervous systems and ability to produce baby birds, and can lead to kidney(肾) failures and death. So condors with high levels of lead are sent to Los Angeles Zoo, where they are treated with calcium EDTA, a chemical that removes lead from the blood over several days. This work is starting to pay off. The annual death rate for adult condors has dropped from38% in 2000 to 5.4% in 2011.Rideout’s team thinks that the California condors’ average survival time in the wild is now just under eight years. “Although these measures are not effective forever, they are vital for now,” he says. “They are truly good birds that are worth every effort we put into recovering them. ”63. California condors attract researchers’ interest because they .A. are active at nightB. had to be bred in the wildC. are found on in CaliforniaD. almost died out in the 1980s64. Researchers have found electrical lines are .A. blocking condors’ journey homeB. big killers of Califorbnia condorasC. rest places for condors at nightD. used to keep condors away65. According to Paraghaph 5, lead poisoning .A. makes condors too nervous to flyB. has little effect on condors’ kidneysC. can hardly be gotten rid of form condors’ bloodD. makes it different for condors to produce baby birds66. The passage shows that .A. the average survival time of condors is satisfactoryB. Rideout’s research interest lies in electric engineeringC. the efforts to protect condors bave brought good resultsD. researchers have found the final answers to the problemDWhy College Is Not HomeThe college years are supposed to be a time for important growth in autonomy(自主性) and the development of adult identity. However, now they are becoming an extended period of adolescence, during which many of today’s students and are not shouldered with adult responsibilities.For previous generations, college was decisive break from parental control; guidance and support needed help from people of the same age and from within. In the past two decades, however, continued connection with and dependence on family, thanks to cellphones, email and social media, have increased significantly. Some parents go so far as to help with coursework. Instead of promoting the idea of college as a passage from theshelter of the family to autonomy and adult responsibility, universities have given in to the idea that they should provide the same environment as that of the home.To prepare for increased autonomy and responsibility, college needs to be a time of exploration and experimentation. This process involves “trying on ” new ways of thinking about oneself bothe intellectually(在思维方面) and personally. While we should provide “safe spaces” within colleges, we must also make it safe to express opinions and challenge majority views. Intellectual growth and flexibility are fostered on debate and questioning.Learning to deal with the social world is equally important. Because a college community(群体) differs from the family, many students will struggle to find a sense of belonging. If students rely on administrators to regulate their social behavior and thinking pattern, they are not facing the challenge of finding an identity within a larger and complex community.Moreover, the tendency for universities to monitor and shape student behavior runs up against another characteristic of young adults: the response to being controlled by their elders. If acceptable social behavior is too strictly defined(规定) and controlled, the insensitive or aggressive behavior that administrators are seeking to minimize may actually be encouraged.It is not surprising that young people are likely to burst out, particularly when there are reasons to do so. Our generation once joined hands and stood firm at times of national emergency. What is lacking today is the conflict between adolescent’s desire for autonomy and their understanding of an unsafe world. Therefore, there is the desire for their dorms to be replacement homes and not places to experience intellectual growth.Every college discussion about community values, social climate and behavior should include recognition of the developmental importance of student autonomy and self-regulation, of the necessary tension between safety and self-discovery.67. What’s the author’s attitude toward continued parental guidance to college students?A. SympatheticB. DisapprovingC. SupportiveD. Neutral68. The underlined word “passage” in Paraghaph 2 means .A.changeB.choiceC.textD.extension69. According to the anthor ,what role should college play?A. To develop a shared identity among studentsB. To define and regulate students’ social behaviorC. To provide a safe world without tension for studentsD. To foster students’ intellectual and personal development70. Which of the following shows the development of ideas in the passage?第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。

They do this for many reasons. Some marks are used to identify people as part of a group。

36 Let’s look at some different examples of body painting.__37 Among the Masai of East Africa，when men are old enough to marry and make decisions for their people，they participate in a special ceremony in which they paint their heads and faces red. This ceremony takes place every seven to fourteen years, so there is not an exact age for participating in it。

The Samburu, also from East Africa, like to paint their faces and hair red because they think it looks attractive.38 To show that he has killed a lion, a man will paint his body with a natural white material, making special marks to represent this accomplishment. The Masai men also use this white to show that they are no longer boys and are considered adults。
