Parents feel that it is difficult to live with teenagers. Then again,teenagers have 1 feelings about their parents, saying that it is not easy living with them. According to a recent research, the most mon 2 between parents and teenagers is that regarding untidiness and daily routine tasks. On the one hand, parents go mad over 3 rooms, clothes thrown on the floor and their children’s refusal to help with the 4 . On the other hand, teenagers lose their patience continually when parents blame them for 5 the towel in the bathroom, not cleaning up their room or refusing to do the shopping at the supermarket.The research, conducted by St. George University, shows that different parents have different 6 to these problems. However, some approaches are more 7 than others. For example, those parents who yell at their children for their untidiness, but 8 clean the roomfor them, have fewer chances of changing their children’s 9 . On the contrary, those who let teenagers experience the 10 of their actions can do better. For example, when teenagers who don’t help their parents with the shopping don’t find their favorite drink in the refrigerator, they are forced to 11 their actions.Psychologists say that 12 is the most important thing in parent-child relationships. Parents should 13 to their children butat the same time they should lend an ear to what they have to say. Parents may 14 their children when they are untidy but they should also understand that their room is their own private space. munication is a two-way process.

Number sense is not the ability to count. It is the ability to recognize a 1 in number. Human beings are born with this ability. 2 ，experiments show that many animals are, too. For example, many birds have good number sense. If a nest has four eggs and you remove one, the bird will not 3 .However, if you remove two, the bird 4 leaves. This means that the bird knows the 5 between two and three.Another interesting experiment showed a bird's 6 number sense. A man was trying to take a photo of a crow (乌鸦) that had a nest in a tower, but the crow always left when she saw him coming. The bird did not 7 until the man left the tower. The man had an 8 . He took another man with him to the tower. One man left and the other stayed, but they did not 9 the bird. The crow stayed away until the second man left, too. The experiment was 10 with three men and then with four men. But the crow did not return to the nest until all the men were 11 .It was not until five men went into the tower and only four left that they were 12 able to fool the crow.How good is a human's number sense? It's not very good. For example, babies about fourteen months old almost always notice if something is taken away from a 13 group. But when the number goes beyond three or four, the children are 14 fooled.It seems that number sense is something we have in common with many animals in this world, and that our human 15 is not much better than a crow's.1.

Everyone in the family settled quickly into the city except me. Without my beloved beaches and endless blue-sky days, I felt at a loss and out of place. Until I made a discovery.Southbank, at an eastern bend in the Thames, is the center of British skateboarding, where the continuous crashing of skateboards left your head ringing .I loved it. I soon made friends with the local skaters. We spoke our own language. And my favorite: Safe. Safe meant cool. It meant hello. It meant donˈt worry about it. Once, when trying a certain trick on the beam(横杆), I fell onto the stones, damaging a nerve in my hand, and Toby came over, helping me up: Safe, man. Safe. A few minutes later, when I landed the trick, my friends beat their boards loud, shouting: "Safe! Safe! Safe!" And thatˈs what mattered—landing tricks, being a good skater. When I was 15, my family moved to Washington. I tried skateboarding there, but the locals were far less welcoming. Within a couple of years, Iˈd given it up.When I returned to London in 2004, I found myself wandering down to Southbank, spending hours there. Iˈve traveled back several times since, most recently t his past spring. The day was cold but clear: tourists and Londoners stopped to watch the skaters. Weaving(穿梭) among thekids who rushed by on their boards, I found my way to the beam. Then a rail-thin teenager, in a baggy white T-shirt, skidded(滑) up to the beam. He sat next to me. He seemed not to notice the man next to him. But soon I caught a few of his glances. "I was a local here 20 years ago," I told him. Then, slowly, he began to nod his head. "Safe, man. Safe.""Yeah," I said. "Safe."8.What can we learn about the author soon after he moved to London?A. He felt disappointed.B. He gave up his hobby.C. He liked the weather there.D. He had disagreements with his family.9.What do the underlined words "Safe! Safe! Safe!" probably mean?A. Be careful!B. Well done!C. No way!D. Donˈt worry!10.Why did the author like to spend time in Southbank when he returned to London?A. To join the skateboarding.B. To make new friends.C. To learn more tricks.D. To relive his childhood days.11.What message does the author seem to convey in the text?A. Children should learn a second language.B. Sport is necessary for childrenˈs health.C. Children need a sense of belonging.D. Seeing the world is a must for children.(2021·全国·历年真题)DWho is a genius? This question has greatly interested humankind for centuries.Letˈs state clearly: Einstein was a genius. His face is almost the international symbol for genius. But we want to go beyond one man and explore the nature of genius itself. Why is it that some people are so much more intelligent or creative than the rest of us? And who are they?In the sciences and arts, those praised as geniuses were most often white men, of European origin. Perhaps this is not a surprise. Itˈs said that histo ry is written by the victors, and those victors set the standards for admission to the genius club. When contributions were made bygeniuses outside the club—women, or people of a different color or belief—they were unacknowledged and rejected by others.A study recently published by Science found that as young as age six, girls are less likely than boys to say that members of their gender(性别) are "really, really smart." Even worse, the study found that girls act on that belief Around age six they start to avoid activities said to be for children who are "really, really smart." Can our planet afford to have any great thinkers become discouraged and give up? It doesnˈt take a genius to know the answer: absolutely not. Here's the good news. In a wired world w ith constant global communication, weˈre all positioned to see flashes of genius wherever they appear. And the more we look, the more we will see that social factors(因素) like gender, race, and class do not determine the appearance of genius. As a writer says, future geniuses come from those with "intelligence, creativity, perseverance(毅力), and simple good fortune, who are able to change the world."12.What does the author think of victors' standards for joining the genius club?A. They're unfair.B. They're conservative.C. They're objective.D. They're strict.13.What can we infer about girls from the study in Science?A. They think themselves smart.B. They look up to great thinkers.C. They see gender differences earlier than boys.D. They are likely to be influenced by social beliefs.14.Why are more geniuses known to the public?A. Improved global communication.B. Less discrimination against women.C. Acceptance of victorsˈ concepts.D. Changes in people's social positions.15.What is the best title for the text?A. Geniuses Think AlikeB. Genius Takes Many FormsC. Genius and IntelligenceD. Genius and Luck二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共10.0分）(2021·全国·历年真题) Swap, Donˈt shop!You keep hearing about recycling, right? But it doesn't end with bottles, cans, and paper. Clothing takes a huge amount of natural resources(资源) to make, and buying loads of new clothing (or throwing out old clothing) is not healthy for the environment. So what to do with all those perfectly-good-but-you're-maybe-a-little-sick-of-them clothes piled on your bedroom floor? 16 . It's the best way to get rid of your used clothes, score clothes from your friends, and have a party all at the same time.A successful swap depends on the selection of clothes, the organization of the event, and, obviously, how much fun is had. It's really easy to do! Here are a few pointers.●Invite 5—10 people so you have a nice selection. 17 , and there may not be enough things to choose from; more than that, and it becomes uncontrollable.● 18 . They should also prepare plenty of reusable bags to carry their "new" clothes home.●Put different types of clothing on different surfaces in the room. 19 . Place a few mirrors around your room so people can see how things look when they try them on. One of the ground rules of the swap should be that everyone must try on the clothes before they take them—things always look different when you put them on.●Set a starting time. Maybe you say "go", or turn on a certain song, or whatever. 20 . And don't forget to put out some cookies and fruits. Remember, it's a party!A. Less people than thatB. Hold a clothing swapC.

People of different ages, from 12 to 83, were asked to have a test. During the test, these people were given all kinds of breakfast, and sometimes they got no breakfast at all. Scientists wanted to see how well their bodies worked when they had eaten different kinds of breakfast.The results show that if a person eats a right breakfast, he or she will work better than if he or she has no breakfast. If a student has fruit, eggs, bread and milk before going to school, he or she will learn more quickly and listen more carefully in class. The result is opposite to what some people think. Having no breakfast will not help you lose weight. This is because people become so hungry at noon that they eat too much for lunch. They will gain weight instead of losing it. You will lose more weight if you reduce your other meals.28.

阅读理解——推理判断题(一)ATeenage life is quite dramatic but that doesn't mean you cannot enjoy your life in these years.Even with your daily troubles，your life is not very hard if you know how to deal with them.I know exactly how you feel.Teenage life can be hard.You are not a kid anymore，because you are smart enough to observe and analyze your surroundings.However，you are still not an adult because there are still lots of experiences that you need to have and lessons that you need to learn from these experiences.To top it all，the hormonal(荷尔蒙的)imbalance in your body can really mess you up.I have been there.I was in it for six years exploring what life is about!As a teenager，I had a major problem completing my chores on time.And at that time，all that I needed to do was to finish my assignments，study for the upcoming tests and clean my room.Now，I have much more things to do: cooking，cleaning and working while striking a balance between all my relationships related to work，family and friends.That really is a lot of work.So，I will just give you one golden tip，quoting from Benjamin Franklin，“Never leave that till tomorrow which you can do today.”Life becomes much easier now because I finish all my work on time and I have enough time to let my hair down.Half the problems of a teenager appear because we hate doing things.We'd rather go and have fun than sit down and take on our responsibilities.That is why you have so much trouble in your life；your parents won't let you go out with friends because you haven't cleaned your room or your teacher is always criticizing you because you haven't finished your assignments.[语篇解读] 作者通过自己的经历告诉我们：如果你懂得如何处理日常烦恼，你的青少年生活就没有那么难了。

(共10小题；每小题2分，满分20分)ALaptop computers are popular all over the world. People use them on trains and airplanes, in airports and hotels. These laptops connect people to their workplace. In the United States today, laptops also connect students to their classrooms.Westlake College in Virginia will start a laptop computer program that allows students to do schoolwork anywhere they want. Within five years, each of the 1,500 students at the college will receive a laptop. The laptops are part of a $10 million computer program at Westlake, a 110-year-old college. The students with laptops will also have access to the Internet. In addition, they will be able to use e­mails to “speak” with their teachers, their classmates, and their families. However, the most important part of the laptop program is that students will be able to use computers without going to computer labs. They can work with it at home, in a fast-food restaurant or under the trees — anywhere at all!Because of the many changes in computer technology, laptop used in higher education, such as colleges and universities, is workable. As laptops become more powerful, they become more similar to desktop computers. In addition, the portable (轻便的) computers can connect students to not only the Internet, but also libraries and other resources. State higher education officials are studying how laptops can help students. State officials are also testing laptop programs at other universities, too.At Westlake College, more than 60 percent of the staff use computers. The laptops will allow all teachers to use computers in their lessons. As one Westlake teacher said, “Here we are in the middle of Virginia and we’re giving students a window on the world. They can see everything and do everything.”1. The main purpose of the laptop program is to give each student a laptop to ________.A. use for their schoolworkB. access the InternetC. work at homeD. connect them to libraries2. Why is the word “speak” in the second paragraph in quotation marks (引号)?A. They don’t really talk.B. They use the computer language.C. Laptops have speakers.D. None of the above reasons is correct.3. Which of the following is TRUE about Westlake College?A. All teachers use computers.B. 1,500 students have laptops.C. It is an old college in America.D. Students there can do nothing.4. “A window on the world” in the last paragraph means that students can ________.A. attend lectures on information technologyB. travel around the worldC. get information from around the worldD. have free laptops5. What can we infer from the passage?A. The program is successful.B. The program is not workable.C. The program is too expensive.D. We don’t know the result yet.[助读词汇]resource n. 资源powerful adj. 有力量的connect to 使与......连接have access to 接近in addition 另外be similar to 与......相似BI’m not so sure I like my friends any more. I used to like them— to be honest. We would have lunch, talk on the phone or exchange emails, and they all seemed normal enough. But then came Facebook, and I was introduced to a sad fact: many of my friends have dark sides that they had kept from me.Today my friends show off the more unpleasant aspects of their personalities via Facebook. No longer hidden, they’re thrown in my face like TV commercials— unavoidable and endless advertisements for the worst of their personalities.Take Fred. If you were to have lunch with him, you would find him warm, and self-effacing (谦逊的). Read his Facebook and you’ll realize he’s an unbearable, food-obsessed boring man. He’d pause to have a cup of coffee on his way to save a drowning man — and then write about it.Take Andy. You won’t find a smarter CEO anywhere, but now he’s a CEO without a company to run. So he plays Mafia Wars on Facebook. He’s doing well— level 731. Thanks to Facebook, I know he’s playing about 18 hours a day. Andy, you’ve run four companies— and this is how you spend your downtime? What happened to golf? What happened to getting another job?Take Liz. She is positive that the flu vaccine (流感疫苗) will kill us all and that we should avoid it. And then comes Chris who likes to post at least 20 times a day on every website he can find, so I get to read his thoughts twice, once on Facebook and once on Twitter.In real life, I don’t see these sides of people. Face to face, my friends show me their best. They’re nice, smart people. But face to Facebook, my friends are like a blind date which goes horribly wrong.I’m left with a dilemma. Who is my real friend? Is it the Liz I have lunch with or the anti-vaccine madman on Facebook? Is it the Fred I can grab a sand wich with or the Fred who weeps if he’s at a party and the wine isn’t up to his standards?1. Who is opposed to the flu vaccine in the passage?A. Fred.B. Andy.C. Liz.D. Chris.2. What is Andy probably busy doing now?A. He’s running his company.B. He’s playing golf all day.C. He’s looking for another job.D. He’s playing computer games.3. According to the passage, Facebook tends to ________.A. present another side of peopleB. offer some foods for freeC. show endless advertisementsD. get you to more parties4. What does the underlined “it” in the last paragraph refer to?A. a dilemmaB. my real friendC. FacebookD. Twitter5.

For no clear reason you cannot help yourself from humming or singing a tune by Lady Gaga.To a psychologist, the most interesting thing about earworms is that they show a part of our mind that is clearly outside of our control. Earworms arrive without permission and refuse to leave when we tell them to. They are parasites (寄生虫) living in a part of our minds.If you have got an earworm you can suffer an attack of it simply by someone mentioning the tune, without having to hear it. This proves that earworms are a part of long-term memory.Humans have an "inner ear", for remembering phone numbers, for instance. When it gets infected with earworms, rather than review our plans for the day, or lists of things to remember, the inner ear gets stuck on a few short bars of music or a couple of phrases from a song. A part of us that we normally do not have to think about, that should just do what we ask, has been turned against us, upsetting us with a request that we never asked for. The mind is an inner world which we do not have complete knowledge of, or have control over.Fortunately psychology can provide some advice on how to deal with an uncontrollable mind. Consider the famous "don’t think of a white bear" problem, which tells you to try not to think about white bears, or to do something else, to avoid both thinking of the white bear and not thinking of the white bear. For earworms, the solution may be the same. Our inner ear has become infected with an earworm. This is a part not under our control, so just sending in instructions to "shut up" is unlikely to be of much help (and has been shown to make it worse).Much better is to employ the inner ear in another task. If your mind is poisoned by Brittany Spears’ Toxic, for instance, then try singing Kylie Minogue’s Can’t Get You out Of My Head. Let me know if it works!53. According to the passage, earworms are ______.A.songs that keep going round in our mindB.worms that live in a part of our brainC.tunes by pop singers like Lady GagaD.parasites clearly under our control54. Which of the following statements is TRUE?A.Singing songs may get earworms out of your head.B.Earworms are used for keeping long-term memory.C.Humans do not have complete control over their mind.D.You won’t suffer from earworms unless you hear the song.55. What does “it” in the last paragraph refer to?A.The instruction to shut up your mind.B.“Don’t think of the white bear” problem.C. Kylie Minogue’s Can’t Get You out Of My Head.D. Using the earworm-infected inner ear in another task.56.What is the passage mainly about?A.The causes and influences of earworms.B.What earworms are and how to deal with them.C.How to clear earworms out of your head.D.The relation between earworms and popular songs.Words and expressions1.Psychologist—psychology2.attack3.mention4.infect5.instruction—instruct6.poison7.get stuck in8.cannot help doing9.permission—permit10.shut upPassage 2The art of living is to know when to hold fast and when to let go. For life is a paradox (自相矛盾): it orders us to hold tightly to its many gifts even while it forces us to give up everything at last. As an old saying goes, “A man comes into this world with his fist clenched (握紧拳头), but when he dies, his hand is open.”Surely we ought to hold fast to life, for it is wonderful, and full of beauty. We know that this is so, but all too often we recognize this truth too late. We remember what it was and then suddenly realize that it is no more.We remember a beauty or a love that disappeared. But we remember with far greater pain that we did not see that beauty when it flowered and that we failed to react with love when it was gentle.A recent experience re-taught me this truth. I was hospitalized following a serious heart attack and had been in intensive care (特别护理) for several days. It was not a pleasant place.One morning, I had to have some additional tests. The required machines were located in a building at the opposite end of the hospital, so I had to be wheeled across the courtyard.As we got out from our unit, the sunlight hit me. That’s all there was to my experience, just the light of the sun. And yet how beautiful it was — how warming, how sparking, how brilliant! I looked to see whether anyone else was enjoying the s un’s golden glow, but everyone was hurrying to and fro, most with eyes fixed on the ground. Then I remembered how often I, too, had been indifferent to the beauty of each day, too busy with something unimportant. L ife’s gifts are valuable — but we are too careless of them.So, we should never be too busy for the wonder and awe of life. We should hold fast to life, but also learn to l et go. This is the second side of life’s coin, the opposite pole of its paradox. We must accept our losses, and learn how to let go. This is not an easy lesson to learn, especially when we are young and think that the world belongs to us, that whatever we want can or will be ours if we work with full force. But then reality finally hits us, and slowly but surely this truth comes to us.57. What can we learn from Paragraph 1?A. Life seems strange with opposite ideas.B. Life teaches us to hold tight to our life.C. Life is a box of chocolates with secrets.D. Life is mainly about birth and death.58. The writer may agree that _______.A. wise people can easily realize what they lost in timeB. people in sickness usually understand life much betterC. it does us harm to think about what happened in the pastD. we must accept our losses and then move onto a new life59. The writer uses the example in Paragraph 4-6 in order to _______.A. explained the importance of keeping healthyB. tell a meaningful story about his life in the hospitalC. show his regret about not enjoying the sunshine in the pastD. prove people fail to enjoy something small but valuableWords and expressions1.paradox2.tightly3.hospitalize4.heart attack5.additional6.courtyard7.spark8.brilliant9.unimportant10.be careless of11.be located in12.to and fro13.fix on14.belong toPassage 3Depression is not a choice. Rather, it is a true medical condition like high blood pressure or heart disease. In the United States alone, more than 17 million people suffer from depression with women being twice as likely as men to suffer from the disease. Depression crosses racial and socioeconomic lines. Anyone can suffer from it, and those that do are not "crazy" or "weak". They have a serious yet highly treatable disease.Feeling down? You’re not alone. If depression seems pretty common, it is. One in every ten adults suffers from depression. And that’s what has scientists confused. If depression causes harm to the body, why is it so widespread in the population? Some scientists think they may have the answer. Depression may have an evolutionary (进化) benefit. It may improve one’s chances of fighting off infection (感染).Scientists have known that depressed people show an immunoreactive (免疫反应性的) condition known as inflammation (炎症), even when they are not infected. For several years they have been finding that genes (基因) linked to depression also affect the function of the immune system. Stress, which can lead to depression, also change the immune system. These findings suggested that depression was somehow linked to the body’s ability to fight disease.Some scientists now come up with the idea that depression might have had an evolutionary advantage in the days before modern medicine and antibiotics (抗生素). Infection was a major cause of death in early human history. Surviving those infections determined which genes were passed to the next generation.They doubt that de pression helped people, especially children, stay alive from infection. Extreme tiredness leads to inactivity and less social contact which helps keep infection from spreading. Having no appetite helps avoid food sharing which can also spread infection. Sleeplessness, which is associated with both depression and immune system activation, may have been a mechanism to keep a person alert(机警) to fight off enemies after injury.If scientist s are correct about this link, it could lead to new treatments for depression. They are interested in drugs that treat conditions where the immune system attacks the person’s own body, known as auto immune diseases. It is possible that medicine known to treat auto immune disease may be successful in treating depression also.56. The underlined sentence in Paragraph 1 means ____.A. there is a depression line between different groups and societiesB. people at a higher social position may tend to suffer from depressionC. people who are living with depression could connect with each otherD. anyone can get depression whatever their economic states and backgrounds are57. In Paragraph 2 the author ______.A. introduces an idea on depressionB. gives an example to show his ideaC. explains how depression worksD. describes the depression problems58. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?A. Depression can spread infection.B. Stress may affect the function of the immune system.C. Women are less likely to suffer from depression.D. Modern medicine is widely used for treating depression.59. The writer mainly wants to tell people that depression _____.A. is serious but highly treatable diseaseB. could have its advantages in scientific researchC. may improve one’s chances of fighting off infectionD. is a true medical condition like high blood pressureWords and expressions1.depression2.blood pressure3.heart disease4.suffer from5.treatable6.confuse7.infect8.linked to9.affecte up with11.extreme12.inactivity13.contact14.appetite15.be associated with16.mechanism17.economic states18.backgrounds Passage 1 ACDB Passage 2 ADD Passage 3 DABC21年高考英语阅读专项训练12-4《动物植物类》Exercise 1(2016北京高考C)California Condor’s Shocking RecoveryCalifornia condors are North America’s largest birds, with wind-length of up to 3 meters. In the 1980s, electrical lines and 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 from 38% 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 Paragraph 5 ,lead poisoning .A.makes condors too nervous to flyB. has little effect on condors’ kidneysC. can hardly be gotten rid of from 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 have brought good resultsD.researchers have found the final answers to the problemI.key words1.electrical----electric----electricity2.rescue3.undeadly4.effective----effect----effort----affect5.vitalII.key phrases1.die out2.kill sb offe up with4.pay off5.annual death rate6.average survival time7.put effort into doing sthIII.sentencesPassage 1What do three hearts, eight arms, and one huge brain add up to? An octopus—a sea animal that can do amazing things.Octopuses are very smart. They can learn new things just like humans. They’ve even learned a few skills to get themselves out of dangerous situations. Octopuses don’t have teeth or sharp (锋利的) claws to prote ct themselves. Instead, they use more clever ways to fool their enemies. Octopuses like to hide themselves in the sand on the bottom of the ocean floor. It can change the color of its skin to match the sand. And this color change happens in less than a minute.Some octopuses like to stay near rocks in shallow water. They can make themselves fit into small spaces between the rocks to get out of reach of their enemies. Another way an octopus can hide is by shooting ink. The ink forms a cloud that hides the octopus. By the time the ink clears, the octopus has swum away or hidden.If an octopus is in danger, it can make itself look like a sea snake. It will hide itself in the sand, leaving two arms outside. It will change the color of those arms to match a sea snake. But what if there’s no time to hide? It can break off one of its arms. The arm will then change colors and keep moving around in the water to take the enemy’s attention away while the octopus swims away to safety. Don’t worry though. The arm will grow back.A kind of octopus is called the blue-ringed octopus. It is tiny. But the enemies know to stay away because it is very poisonous and can kill animals much larger than itself, including humans.So the next time you see an octopus in the aquarium, remember that inside that oversized head is a very large brain, making it a clever addition to the sea.53. The octopus breaks off one of its arms to ______.A. fit into small spacesB. swim much fasterC. get time to run awayD. shoot more ink54. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. The octopus has sharp teeth to catch food.B. The octopus uses its arms to kill the enemy.C. The octopus changes color to fool the sea snake.D. The octopus can make itself look like another animal.55. The passage is mainly about ______.A. how careful the octopus is to hide itselfB. how clever the octopus is to protect itselfC. how happy the octopus is to live in waterD. how brave the octopus is to face dangersWords and expressions1.Bottom2.match3.attention4.poisonous5.aquariumPassage 2People have used pigeons to carry messages to one another for hundreds of years. In the 12th century, the royal palaces of Iraq and Syria included pigeon houses so the kings could be kept informed of their generals’ victories and defeats on the battlefield. In fact, pigeons were a common way to send messages right up through World War II.Many countries, such as the United States, England, France, Germany, and Italy, in both World War I and World War II, used carrier pigeons. Not only were the birds often the fastest, most reliable way to send messages, they could also be used to reach soldiers far behind enemy lines, where radios and field telephone lines were useless. Since they could easily be released (释放) from airplanes or ships, every branch of the armed services used the birds. In World War II, more than 3,000 soldiers and 150 officers were needed to care for and train the tens of thousands of birds in the U.S. Pigeon Service.Carrying messages could be a dangerous job. Some pigeons performed with such bravery that they became famous and were even awarded medals, such as England’s Dicken Medal of Gallantry. In a few cases, pigeons even became prisoners of war. In 1918 American forces captured a pigeon named Kaiser, which had been trained to fly special missions for Germany during battle. He was taken to America, where he lived to the age of 32. The most famous pigeon of all may have been Cher Ami. Stationed in France during World War I, he carried twelve important messages fo r American forces. On his last mission, though wounded, he carried a message that saved the lives of 194 American soldiers. For his extraordinary service, he was awarded the French “Croix de Guerre.”Carrier pigeons are a slightly different breed (品种) from the kind of pigeons you see on city streets. They are much thinner and taller, with longer legs. Many people find carrier pigeons ugly because of their big wattle, a bent buildup of skin on the beak（鸟嘴）; however, people who raise pigeons often enjoy this strange appearance and consider carriers the best of their breed.Today, modern communication methods can carry information from one place to another hundreds of times faster than a pigeon could do. However, few people would argue with the fact that carrier pigeons—especially those that served in the military—have earned their place in histo ry. Stories about brave pigeons such as Cher Ami, President Wilson, and Colonel’s Lady have the power to inspire us as no fax machine or high-speed Internet connection could ever do.57. Many countries used carrier pigeons in the war because_______.A.they could be believed inB.they were easily raisedC.they could reach the enemy linesD.they could hardly be found by airplanes58. Which is the best example to show the bravery of carrier pigeons?A. Carrier pigeons could fly to places where radios and telephone lines were useless.B. For his extraordinary servic e, Cher Ami was awarded the French “Croix de Guerre”.C. In World War II, more than 3,000 soldiers were needed to care for and train the pigeons.D. In the 12th century, kings in Iraq were kept informed of the victories and defeats bypigeons.59.From the passage, we can learn _________.A.how carrier pigeons developed in historyB.how to train carrier pigeons to get victoryC.carrier pigeons played an important role in the wars in the old daysD.pigeons inspired soldiers to fight before high-speed Internet inventedWords and expressions1.royal2.reliable3.release4.captureitary6.inspirePassage 2 ABC21年高考英语阅读专项训练12-3《娱乐与体育》Passage 1LOS ANGELES - China has become the world's second-largest market for films, after North America, and China's box office earnings are growing by 30 percent a year. The country is changing the way Hollywood does business.Films made or shown in China are reviewed by a board of censors（审查署）, and the film Skyfall had some parts cut. The science fiction film Cloud Atlas lost 40 minutes, mostly parts showing violence（暴力）．Films are also cut if they harm China image（形象）．Some big action films have a direct China connection. The adventure Iron Man 3 was partly filmed in China, so it has also been examined by Chinese officials. "Chinese opinions also influence other films, like 2012", said Stanley Rosen at the University of Southern California. He studies China's film industry. "Even if you're not making in China, a film like 2012 will be very careful. A film including something that hurts Chinese feelings will simply kill the market."Chinese audiences love big movies with special effects. Half of Hollywood's box is from Chinese theaters, and Chinese officials last year raised the yearly percentage of film imports(进口) from 20 to 34. Life of Pi was well received from Taiwan-born director Ang Lee, who has won his second Oscar Award for Best Director at the 85th Academy Awards Ceremony."More Hollywood studios（制片公司）are finding Chinese partners for co-productions, and Disney and DreamWorks Animation(梦工厂) are putting money in tourist attractions in Shanghai." Stanley Rosen said, "It's a developing relationship, and Hollywood needs China, as the North American market has been flat. But China needs Hollywood, as well, as you see with DreamWorks and Disney go ing in."And China is coming to Hollywood. The Chinese company TCL has bought the right to rename the historic Grauman's Chinese Theatre on Hollywood Boulevard. And Dalian Wanda Group has bought a key American theater chain（连锁影院）, AMC. The ties between China and Hollywood are expected to grow further in the future.54. __________is the largest market for films in the world.A. ChinaB. North AmericaC. The United StatesD. India55. From the passage, we can infer that __________.A. Chinese audiences develop Hollywood filmsB. Hollywood starts to do business in a Chinese wayC. Chinese film market has an influence on HollywoodD. Hollywood films are shown in most of Chinese theaters56. The writer uses Disney, DreamWorks Animation and TCL as examples to__________.A. show the connections between China and HollywoodB. introduce the movie studios in China and HollywoodC. show how China and Hollywood help each otherD. explain why more movie studios go into ChinaWords and expressions1.audience2.relationship3.flatIn the past ten years, America’s National Basketball Association (NBA) has grown increasingly dependent on the rest of the world to supply players.When Michael Jordan and Larry Bird won gold in Barcelona in 1992, the Americans were praised for teaching the world how to play basketball. This season, however, 20 percent of NBA name list will be filled by non-Americans. NBA director David Stem happily welcomes the chance. On a visit to Paris in October, Stern outlined his picture for the future, which is likely to see Europe hosting NBA games by 2015.The NBA is now planning to take China by storm.“Our experience in China has been that it is going to grow surprisingly,” said Stern. The way in China is television. “We’ve made 14 deals in China with local and national networks on cable and satellite.” The success of Chinese centre Yao Ming has paved the way for the NBA marketing blitz in China. The NBA, which is broadcasted in more than 200 countries in 42 languages, put that to the test in October 2004 when the Houston Rockets played two pre-season games against the Sacramento Kings in Beijing and Shanghai. The NBA knows that it needs a global market to make up for poor times in homeland.“It doesn’t matter where the players come from, all the NBA teams now know that they have to scout search internationally,” said Terry Lyons, the NBA’s vice-president of international public relations. “It has increased the level of competition here.” As Frenchman Tony Parker and Argentine Emanuel Ginobili showed in winning championship rings with the San Anto nio Spurs last season, many people can earn the respect of their American peers. Others, such as the Houston Rockets’ Chinese centre Yao Ming — number one draft pick in 2002 —and the Detroit Pistons’ 18-year-old Serb Darko Milicic —number two overall in this year’s draft —are heroes in-waiting. It is the revolution —the rest of the world teaching the US how to play basketball.53. According to the report, ___.A. Michael Jordan is still playing a very important role in NBAB. the part played by the foreign players in NBA will be greatC. Yao Ming is to play two pre-season games in NBAD. European countries will host the 2004 NBA games54. The underlined phrase “take China by storm”means that ___.A. NBA intends to make China its “marketing center”B. NBA is planning to set up some training centers in ChinaC. there’ll be a big storm when NBA comes to ChinaD. the NBA’s live basket games will be broadcasted on all the TVs in China55. What seems to be the biggest change that is happening to NBA?A. Yao Ming has taken the place of Michael Jordan.B. China’s rapid development in sports affects NBA.C. NBA is expecting more foreign players to join the team.D.

Dr. Douglas feels that most people do not value themselves, but with love and self­respect anyone can be above normality and grasp success with the family, the office, or others.We have become too reliant on intelligence, beauty, and money for our own self ­esteem. The loss of esteem reduces the will and ability to set and reach goals. In a series of reading Douglas teaches how to avoid negative statements, how to change them into self­facing behavior, and how to take charge of your mental attitude. Where other motivational and self­help work stops with the theoretical plan for success, Douglas takes everyday examples and puts them into his books. From raising children who believe in themselves t o using self­esteem to help bridge the gap in the workplace, he gives readers concrete solutions to the problems that might ruin their interpersonal relations.Self­esteem building comes from filling your thoughts with positive affirmations(肯定) and learning to react to failures with motivation instead of self­destruction. These lessons are valuable for anyone who feels that life is even slightly out of control. People who feel they have adequate esteem can learn to use it to make their success grander, faster, and more beneficial for others. Douglas approaches this process of self­development as a means of more than creating goodthings for the individual but also for setting up keys for influencing good things for others.For more than thirty years, Dr. Douglas has addressed more than two million people on topics from time management to speaking effectively to raising drug­free children.

If you do, you may have heard of the idea of spending only some of it, saving some of it and donating (捐赠) some to people who need it more．The head of Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg, and his wife announced they were giving away 99% of their money from Facebook during their lives to help others！That alone is amazing considering most people donate about 3% to 5% of the money they have．It’s even more amazing when you realize they’re donating about D|S45 billion．That’s D|S45,000,000,000！！！！Don’t worry．They’ll still have about D|S455 million to live on!They made this decision partly because they had a baby girl, Max, and thought about what kind of world they’d like her to grow up in．It must be an amazing feeling to have that kind of money spent on people in need．Mark Zuckerberg is one of the richest persons in the world, so most of us will never know what that would be like．But we don’t have to be super wealthy to make meaningful change．Sometimes change can come from change!Ten­year­old Joey Roth from America started saving up change he found anywhere —around his house, on the street, on his way to school ．．．And then he started putting it in a jar (广口瓶)．He even asked the tooth fairyto donate some change in his letter to her after he lost a tooth! (The tooth fairy is an imaginary person．) His collection, Jar for Change, has grown into a community­wide effort and he has raised over D|S10,000 all from people dropping coins into jars! The money he raises goes to help connect parents with their very sick babies．See what these people have done?

On an individual level, we grow up eating the food of our culture. It becomes a part of who we are. Many of us associate food from our childhood with warm feelings and good memories and it ties us to our families, holding a special and personal value for us. Food from our family often becomes the comfort food we seek as adults in times of frustration and stress.On a large scale, traditional food is an important part of culture. It also operates as an expression of culture identity. Immigrants bring it wherever they go, and it is a symbol of pride for their culture and means of coping with homesickness.Many immigrants open their own restaurants and serve traditional dishes. However, the food does not remain exactly the same. Some materials needed to make traditional dishes may not be readily available, so the taste and flavor can be different from what they would prepare in their home countries. Additionally, immigrants do not only sell dishes to people from the same countries as them, but to people from different countries. Therefore, they have to make small changes about the original dishes to cater to a wider range of customers. Those changes can create new flavors that still keep the cultural significance of the dishes.We should not only embrace our heritage (遗产) through our culture’s food but also become more informed about other cultures by trying their food. It is important to remember that each dish has a special place in the culture to which it belongs, and is special to those who prepare it. Food is a window into culture, and it should be treated as such.5．What’s the function of food mentioned in the article?A．To help motivate homesickness.B．To show national identity.C．To reflect a country’s history.D．To show a community’s superiority.6．What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A．The specific traditional food.B．The national culture.C．A traditional expression of food.D．The old-fashioned taste.7．Why do some immigrants have to change the original dishes in their restaurants?A．To attach cultural importance to their dishes.B．To announce the beginning of their life on foreign soil.C．To make the dishes popular among customers.D．To present their own food culture in a new way.8．What’s he author’s attitude toward different food cultures?A．Negative.B．Balanced.C．Unfair. D．Unchangeable.CAlong with the progress of reform and opening up, the Chinese film industry has also made remarkable achievements and become in a flourishing (繁荣的) state in economic growth. It has recorded social changes in the past decades through the medium of the film. The film market of China has been much better than that of North America, becoming the largest in the world during the first season of 2019.In the original stage of reform and opening up, old Chinese movies were rescreen ed and foreign movies dubbed (译制). Audiences' enthusiasm for movies was lighted up by both these practices. In 1979, the attendance ofChinese moviegoers reached a record high of 29.3 billion. However, televisions and other entertainment activities sprang up in the late 1980s and drew many audiences away from movies when the film market faced a danger.The employment of a socialist market economy in China in 1992 brought energy again to the film industry. With the introduction of free competition and reforms, it made an abundant recovery and experienced rapid growth. In the same period, China began to introduce overseas movies into the home market, especially those from Hollywood. Despite the argument that foreign movies occupy the space of home-made ones, Chinese movies with increasingly higher quality have gained a firm foothold in the local market with box offices setting several new records.The development of the Internet has added new energy to the Chinese film industry. In 2015, the powerful Internet companies, one called Tencent and another Alibaba, developed their own film arm and began to adapt popular online stories for movies. With big data, more accurate marketing skills can target specific audiences to satisfy their personal preferences. Yet the development of online cinemas may pose threats to the survival of offline ones. Now the film industry is exploring more advanced film screening technologies to provide audiences with an improved movie experience.9．Which threat did the Chinese film market face in the late 1980s?A．Popularity of televisions.B．Development of online cinemas.C．A slowdown in economic growth.D．Introduction of overseas movies.10．What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A．The space of Chinese movies.B．The Chinese film industry.C．The socialist market economy.D．The introduction of reform and opening up.11．What does the author indicate in the end?A．Online cinemas will replace traditional ones sooner.B．The film screening technology is key to films' success.C．The Internet is a two-edged sword for the film industry.D．Movies made by Tencent and Alibaba are most successful.12．What would be the best title for the text?A．The Ever-changing Film MarketB．Popular Online FilmsC．Advanced Film TechnologiesD．Flourishing Chinese Films答案A语篇解读：不是一定要有很多钱才能帮助别人，我们也可以从小处做起。

2021年广东省高考英语试卷（新高考Ⅰ）ARome can be pricey for travelers,which is why many choose to stay in a hostel（旅社）.The hostels in Rome offer a bed in a dorm room for around ＄25 a night,and for that,you'll often get to stay in a central location （位置）with security and comfort.Yellow HostelIf I had to make just one recommendation for where to stay in Rome,it would be Yellow Hostel.It's one of the best-rated hostels in the city,and for good reason.It's affordable,and it's got a fun atmosphere without being too noisy.As an added bonus,it's close to the main train station.Hostel Alessandro PalaceIf you love social hostels,this is the best hostel for you in Rome.Hostel Alessandro Palace is fun.Staff members hold plenty of bar events for guests like free shots,bar crawls and karaoke.There's also an area on the rooftop for hanging out with other travelers during the summer.Youth Station HostelIf you're looking for cleanliness and a modern hostel,look no further than Youth Station.It offers beautiful furnishings and beds.There are plenty of other benefits,too；it doesn't charge city tax；it has both air conditioning and a heater for the rooms；it also has free Wi-Fi in every room.Hotel and Hostel Des ArtistesHotel and Hostel Des Artistes is located just a 10-minute walk from the central city station and it's close to all of the city's main attractions.The staff is friendly and helpful,providing you with a map of the city when you arrive,and offering advice if you require some.However,you need to pay 2 euros a day for Wi-Fi.1.

"I'm not a trained musician, but I've learnt to read music so I can help Maria in her performance."Mr Titterton is chairman of the Omega Ensemble but has been the group's official page turner for thepast four years. His job is to sit beside the pianist and turn the pages of the score so the musician doesn't have to break the flow of sound by doing it themselves. He said he became just as nervous as those playing instruments on stage."A lot of skills are needed for the job. You have to make sure you don't turn two pages at once and make sure you find the repeats in the music when you have to go back to the right spot." Mr Titterton explained. Being a page turner requires plenty of practice. Some pieces of music can go for 40 minutes and require up to 50 page turns, including back turns for repeat passages. Silent onstage communication is key, and each pianist has their own style of "nodding" to indicate a page turn which they need to practise with their page turner.But like all performances, there are moments when things go wrong. "I was turning the page to get ready for the next page, but the draft wind from the turn caused the spare pages to fall off the stand," Mr Titterton said, "Luckily I was able to catch them and put them back."Most page turners are piano students or up-and-coming concert pianists, although Ms Raspopova has once asked her husband to help her out on stage."My husband is the worst page turner," she laughed. "He's interested in the music, feeling every note, and I have to say: 'Turn, turn!' Robert is the best page turner I've had in my entire life."4. What should Titterton be able to do to be a page turner? ______A. Read music.B. Play the piano.C. Sing songs.D. Fix the instruments.5. Which of the following best describes Titterton's job on stage? ______A. Boring.B. Well-paid.C. Demanding.D. Dangerous.6. What does Titterton need to practise? ______A. Counting the pages.B. Recognizing the "nodding".C. Catching falling objects.D. Performing in his own style.7. Why is Ms Raspopova's husband "the worse page turner"? ______A. He has very poor eyesight.B. He ignores the audience.C. He has no interest in music.D. He forgets to do his job.CWhen the explorers first set foot upon the continent of North America,the skies and lands were alive with an astonishing variety of wildlife. Native Americans had taken care of these precious natural resources wisely. Unfortunately,it took the explorers and the settlers who followed only a few decades to decimatea large part of these resources. Millions of waterfowl（水禽）were killed at the hands of market hunters and a handful of overly ambitious sportsmen. Millions of acres of wetlands were dried to feed and house the ever-increasing populations,greatly reducing waterfowl habitat （栖息地）.In 1934，with the passage of the Migratory Bird Hunting Stamp Act （Act），an increasingly concerned nation took firm action to stop the destruction of migratory （迁徙的）waterfowl and the wetlands so vitalto their survival. Under this Act, all waterfowl hunters 16 years of age and over must annually purchase and carry a Federal Duck Stamp. The very first Federal Duck Stamp was designed by J.N. "Ding" Darling,a political cartoonist from Des Moines,Iowa,who at that time was appointed by President Franklin Roosevelt as Director of the Bureau of Biological Survey. Hunters willingly pay the stamp price to ensure the survival of our natural resources.About 98 cents of every duck stamp dollar goes directly into the Migratory Bird Conservation Fund to purchase wetlands and wildlife habitat for inclusion into the National Wildlife Refuge System- a fact that ensures this land will be protected and available for all generations to come. Since 1934，better than half a billion dollars has gone into that Fund to purchase more than 5 million acres of habitat. Little wonder the Federal Duck Stamp Program has been called one of the most successful conservation programs ever initiated.8. What was a cause of the waterfowl population decline in North America？A. Loss of wetlands.B. Popularity of water sports.C. Pollution of rivers.D. Arrival of other wild animals.9. What does the underlined word "decimate" mean in the first paragraph？A. Acquire.B. Export.C. Destroy.D. Distribute.10. What is a direct result of the Act passed in 1934？A. The stamp price has gone down.B. The migratory birds have flown away.C. The hunters have stopped hunting.D. The government has collected money.11. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text？A. The Federal Duck Stamp StoryB. The National Wildlife Refuge SystemC. The Benefits of Saving WaterfowlD. The History of Migratory Bird HuntingDPopularization has in some cases changed the original meaning of emotional (情感的) intelligence. Many people now misunderstand emotional intelligence as almost everything desirable in a person's makeup that cannot be measured by an IQ test, such as character, motivation, confidence, mental stability, optimism and "people skills". Research has shown that emotional skills may contribute to some of these qualities, but most of them move far beyond skill-based emotional intelligence.We prefer to describe emotional intelligence as a specific set of skills that can be used for either good or bad purposes. The ability to accurately understand how others are feeling may be used by a doctor to find how best to help her patients, while a cheater might use it to control potential victims. Being emotionallyintelligent does not necessarily make one a moral person.Although popular beliefs regarding emotional intelligence run far ahead of what research can reasonably support, the overall effects of the publicity have been more beneficial than harmful. The most positive aspect of this popularization is a new and much needed emphasis (重视) on emotion by employers, educators and others interested in promoting social well-being. The popularization of emotional intelligence has helped both the public and researchers re-evaluate the functionality of emotions and how they serve people adaptively in everyday life.Although the continuing popular appeal of emotional intelligence is desirable, we hope that such attention will excite a greater interest in the scientific and scholarly study of emotion. It is our hope that in coming decades, advances in science will offer new perspectives (视角) from which to study how people manage their lives. Emotional intelligence, with its focus on both head and heart, may serve to point us in the right direction.12. What is a common misunderstanding of emotional intelligence?A. It can be measured by an IQ test.B. It helps to exercise a person's mind.C. It includes a set of emotional skills.D. It refers to a person's positive qualities.13. Why does the author mention "doctor" and "cheater" in Paragraph 2?A. To explain a rule.B. To clarify a concept.C. To present a fact.D. To make a prediction.14. What is the author's attitude to the popularization of emotional intelligence?A. Favorable.B. Intolerant.C. Doubtful.D. Unclear.15. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about concerning emotional intelligence?A. Its appeal to the public.B. Expectations for future studies.C. Its practical application.D. Scientists with new perspectives.My husband and I just spent a week in Paris.

阅读理解之推理判断题推理判断题属于主观题，是层次较高的设题。

它包括判断和推理题。

这两类题常常相互依存，推理是为了得出正确的判断，正确的判断又依赖于合乎逻辑的推理。

推理题要求在理解原文表面文字信息的基础上，做出一定判断和推论，从而得到文章的隐含意义和深层意义。

推理题所涉及的内容可能是文中某一句话，也可是某几句话，但做题的指导思想都是以文字信息为依据，既不能做出在原文中找不到文字根据的推理，也不能根据表面文字信息做多步推理。

所以，推理题的答案只能是根据原文表面文字信息一步推出的答案：即对原文某一句话或某几句话所作的同义改写(paraphrase)或综合。

"We are going to make a change," she said."I've started a project to promote the teaching of the arts in our schools."The project results from the difficulties many schools have in getting artists of any sort - whether an up-and-coming local musician or a major movie star - into schools to work with and inspire children.Zafirakou began the project at Alperton Community School her place of work for the past twelve years. "I've seen those magic moments when children are talking to someone they are inspired by - their eyes are shining and their faces light up," she said. "We need artists .more than ever in our schools."Artist Michael Craig-Martin said："Andria's brilliant project to bring artists from all fields intodirect contact with children is particularly welcome at a time when the arts are being downgraded in schools." It was a mistake to see the arts as unnecessary,he added.Historian Sir Simon Schama is also a supporter of the project.He said that arts education in schools was not just an add-on. "It is absolutely necessary.The future depends on creativity and creativity depends on the young.What will remain of us when artificial intelligence takes over will be our creativity,and it is our creative spirit,our visionary sense of freshness,that has been our strength for centuries."8.What will Zafirakou do with her prize money______A.

Arts Education in BritainD. The World's Best Arts TeacherDAn Australian professor is developing a robot to monitor the health of grazing cattle,a development that could bring big changes to a profession that's relied largely on a low-tech approach for decades but is facing a labor shortage.Salah Sukkarieh,a professor at the University of Sydney,sees robots as necessary given how cattlemen are aging.He is building a four-wheeled robot that will run on solar and electric power.It will use cameras and sensors to monitor the animals.A computer system will analyze the video to determine whether a cow is sick.Radio tags（标签）on the animals will measure temperature changes.The quality of grassland will be tracked by monitoring the shape,color and texture （质地）of grass.That way,cattlemen will know whether they need to move their cattle to another field for nutrition purposes.Machines have largely taken over planting,watering and harvesting crops such as corn and wheat,but the monitoring of cattle has gone through fewer changes.For Texas cattleman Pete Bonds,it's increasingly difficult to find workers interested in watching cattle.But Bonds doesn't believe a robot is right for the job.Years of experience in the industry - and failed attempts to use technology - have convinced him that the best way to check cattle is with a man on a horse.Bonds,who bought his first cattle almost 50 years ago,still has each of his cowboys inspect 300 or 400 cattle daily and look for signs that an animal is getting sick.Other cattlemen see more promise in robots.Michael Kelsey Paris,vice president of the Oklahoma Cattlemen's Association,said a robot could be extremely useful given rising concerns about cattle theft.Cattle tend to be kept in remote places and their value has risen,making them appealing targets.12.What is a problem with the cattle-raising industry？______A. Soil pollution.B. Lack of workers.C. Aging machines.D. Low profitability.13.What will Sukkarieh's robot be able to do？______A. Monitor the quality of grass.B. Cure the diseased cattle.C. Move cattle to another field.D. Predict weather changes.14.Why does Pete Bonds still hire cowboys to watch cattle______A. He wants to help them earn a living.B. He thinks men can do the job better.C. He is inexperienced in using robots.D. He enjoys the traditional way of life.15.How may robots help with cattle watching according to Michael Kelsey？______A. Increase the value of cattle.B. Bring down the cost of labor.C. Make the job more appealing.D. Keep cattle from being stolen.二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共12.5分）If the only reading you ever do is the novel or magazine,the speed at which you read -probably does not matter very much.But if you have to read a great deal for study,you will appreciate thebenefits of being able to read more quickly.

I lost my sight when I was four years old by falling off a box car in a freight yard in Atlantic City and landing on my head．Now I am thirty two．I can slightly remember the brightness of sunshine and what color red is．It would be wonderful to see again, but a calamity（灾难）can do strange things to people．It occurred to me the other day that I might not have come to love life as I do if I hadn't been blind．I believe in life now．I am not so sure that I would have believed in it so deeply, otherwise．I don't mean that I would prefer to go without my eyes．I simply mean that the loss of them made me appreciate the more what I had left．The hardest lesson I had to learn was to believe in myself．That was basic．If I hadn't been able to do that, I would have collapsed and become a chair rocker on the front porch for the rest of my life．When I say belief in myself I am not talking about simply the kind of self confidence that helps me down an unfamiliar staircase alone．That is part of it．But I mean something bigger than that: an assurance that I am, despite imperfections, a real, positive person; that somewhere in the sweeping, intricate（错综简单的）pattern of people there is a special place where I can make myself fit．It took me years to discover and strengthen this assurance．It had to start with the simplest things．Once a man gave me an indoor baseball．I thought he was making fun of me and I was hurt．"I can't use this．" I said．"Take it with you," he urged me, "and roll it around．" The words stuck in my head．"Roll it around! "By rolling the ball I could hear where it went．This gave me an idea how to achieve a goal I had thought impossible: playing baseball．At Philadelphia's Overbrook School for the Blind I invented a successful variation of baseball．We called it ground ball．All my life I have set ahead of me a series of goals and then tried to reach them, one at a time．I had to learn my limitations．It was no good trying for something that I knew at the start was wildly out of reach because that only invited the bitterness of failure．I would fail sometimes anyway but on the average I made progress．1．We can learn from the beginning of the passage that _______A．the author lost his sight because of a car crash．B．the author wouldn't love life if the disaster didn't happen．C．the disaster made the author appreciate what he had．D．the disaster strengthened the author's desire to see．2．What's the most difficult thing for the author?A．How to adjust himself to reality．B．Building up assurance that he can find his place in life．C．Learning to manage his life alone．D．How to invent a successful variation of baseball．3．According to the context, “a chair rocker on the front porch” in paragra ph 3 means that the author __________ A．would sit in a rocking chair and enjoy his life．B．would be unable to move and stay in a rocking chair．C．would lose his will to struggle against difficulties．D．would sit in a chair and stay at home．4．According to the passage, the baseball and encouragement offered by the man _____A．hurt the author's feeling．B．gave the author a deep impression．C．directly led to the invention of ground ball．D．inspired the author．5．What is the best title for the passage?A．A Miserable LifeB．Struggle Against DifficultiesC．A Disaster Makes a Strong PersonD．An Unforgettable Experience【参考答案】1---5、CBCDC较难题目特训：介绍说明类阅读下列四篇短文，从每小题后所给的A,B,C或D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

2021高考英语阅读理解（现代科技）（含解析）李仕才【话题导读】灯柱伞是一种有雨水感应伞的灯柱，如此人们在不记得带雨伞时就可不能挨淋了。

LampbrellaYou can’t always predict a heavy rain or remember your umbrella. ①But designer Mikhail Belvacv doesn’t think that forgetting to check the weather forecast before heading out should result in you getting wet. That’s why he created lampbrella, a lamp post with its own rain sensing umbrella.The designer says he ②come up with the idea after watching people get wet on streets in Russia. “Once, I was driving on a central Saint Petersburg street ad saw the street lamps ③lighting up people trying to hide from the rain. I thought it would be appropriate to have a canopy built into a street lamp.” he said.The lampbrella is a standard-looking street lamp fitted with an umbrella canopy. It has a built-in electric motor which can open or close the umbrella ④on demand. Sensors then ensure that the umbrella offers p edestrians shelter whenever it starts raining.⑤In addition to the rain sensor, there’s also a 360° motion sensor on the fiberglass street lamp which detects whether anyone’s using the lampbrella. After three minutes of not being used the canopy is closed.According to the designer, the lampbrella would move at a relatively low speed, so as not to cause harm to the pedestrians. Besides, it would be grounded to protect from possible lighting strike. Each lampbrella would offer enough shelter for several people. Being installed at 2 meters off the ground, it would only be a danger for the tallest of pedestrians.While there are no plans to take lampbrella into production, Belyacv says he recently introduced his creation one Moscow Department, and insists this creation could be installed on my street where a lot of people walk but there are no canopies to provide shelter.灯柱伞你可不能每次都推测到大雨到来或者记得带上雨伞。
