高一英语阅读理解专题训练(带答案)(英语)一、完型填空1.This year my husband and I decided to have a quiet, low-key New Year's Eve. We wanted to spend it with our kids and other immediate family and make it a special 1 for them, instead of 2 a babysitter and going out on our own. The logical way to do this was through 3 . As we all know, food had a magical way of making; a night 4 , and our New Year's Eve certainly 5 that way, thanks to doughnuts(甜甜圈).I decided to make doughnuts because my cousins had 6 a batch(一批) on Halloween and I found it very 7 . I used a recipe from the 1976 Mennonite cookbook More With Less and it 8 a curious ingredient---two cups of mashed potatoes that 9 made the texture lighter. The doughnuts were 10 and cut from a sheet of dough(生面团), then left to rise until ready to fry in hot oil. Then they took several seconds to 11 , which meant that my enormous batch of 100 doughnuts was 12 cooking in a fairly short time. We glazed(浇上浆液) the tops and then 13 them for the rest of the evening. The leftovers disappeared at breakfast.This will become an annual 14 , I have no doubt. Whether we host a bigger party or keep it small, there will always be 15 doughnuts, because when you have hot homemade doughnuts, you can't help but have the best time.1.A.challenge B.idea C.opportunity D.occasion 2.A.training B.hiring C.knowing D.interviewing 3.A.time B.money C.food D.fun4.A.short B.memorable C.messy D.silent 5.A.tested out B.moved on C.tuned out D.picked out 6.A.put B.bought C.brought D.made 7.A.impressive B.expensive C.healthy D.nutritious 8.A.took up B.carried on C.called for D.cut off 9.A.fortunately B.possibly C.totally D.absolutely 10.A.rolled out B.taken apart C.sorted out D.cut down 11.A.steam B.cook C.sink D.float 12.A.finished B.practiced C.considered D.demanded 13.A.prepared B.waited C.enjoyed D.longed 14.A.celebration B.idea C.ceremony D.tradition 15.A.fresh B.raw C.common D.local【答案】1.D2.B3.C4.B5.C6.D7.A8.C9.B10.A11.B12.A13.C14.D15.A2.Dear girls,The dream itself comes from hard work, some good luck and good timing.

But as I built strength, my friends 1 me to step up my training and try some longer trips. The first one to come along was a 150-mile trip, the MS-150, an annual 2 that raises money to fight AIDS.When I registered, the idea seemed fantastic and I trained with 3 . However, as the time for the ride approached, my self-doubts 4 beyond my endurance (忍耐). I 5 wanted to raise money for the charity, but I didn't really want to bike all those miles for two days straight.The ride began on a beautiful Sunday morning in the Georgia countryside, and for the first few hours I felt 6 .This was just the experience I had 7 ,and my spirits were high. 8 by the end of the day, I felt tired out.If the body is 9 to the mind, here was evidence. Every 10 my brain pushed out seemed to travel right down to my leg s. “I can't handle this” became a leg cramp (抽筋), and “Everyone else is a better rider” translated into 11 of breath. I was sure I'd have to 12 .As I topped the crest (顶) of a hill, the beautiful sunset kept me going for a few minutes more. Then in the distance, I saw a lone woman riding very slowly 13 the bright red sun. I 14 that the person looked different in some way, but I couldn't tell why. So I pushed myself to 15 . There she was, riding along slowly but 16 ,with a slight and determined smile on her face and she had only one leg.My focus changed in that instant. For a whole day I'd been 17 my body. But now I knew it wasn't the body, but the 18 that would help me reach my goal. It rained all the second day. I never saw the one-legged biker again, but I pushed on without 19 , knowing she was out there with me somewhere. And at the end of the day, still feeling 20 , I completed the 150-mile trip.1.A.encouraged B.forbade C.forced D.warned 2.A.accident B.event C.incident D.affair3.A.care B.ease C.enthusiasm D.difficulty 4.A.achieved B.gained C.progressed D.advanced 5.A.still B.even C.rather D.then 6.A.nervous B.disappointed C.wonderful D.refreshed 7.A.assumed B.appreciated C.admired D.imagined 8.A.But B.Therefore C.Meanwhile D.Moreover 9.A.opposite B.connected C.exposed D.equal 10.A.cause B.reason C.excuse D.effect 11.A.holding B.saving C.catching D.shortness 12.A.quit B.continue C.insist D.fade13.A.on B.against C.down D.over 14.A.observed B.watched C.overlooked D.noticed 15.A.put up B.look up C.catch up D.take up 16.A.steadily B.abruptly C.closely D.narrowly 17.A.trusting B.doubting C.cheating D.fighting 18.A.strength B.honesty C.will D.power 19.A.struggling B.arguing C.discussing D.complaining 20.A.strong B.weak C.healthy D.spiritless【答案】1.A2.B3.C4.B5.A6.C7.D8.A9.B10.C11.D12.A13.B14.D15.C16.A17.B18.C19.D20.A4.I have always been hard-working in school.

A line read, “As a student, he was no Einstein.” And there was a word in red, “Confidence”. A new attitude was 12 inside me.I was now 13 the gate of the university and there stood still another billboard. This one showed a photograph of a proud 14 in a cap and gown.

The two females and two children were already 3 by the security guard over there.Lima had two girls himself, similar in age to the two girls there, so it 4 him a little bit. Lima checked the 5 for the items they had paid for. There was nothing else like health and beauty items on it. The items were all 6 —things bought just to stuff themselves. Then he asked an employee where the other items were that they had 7 to take and was informed they were put back on the shelves.Obviously, this family was in real need. While Lima firmly 8 following the law, he decided to cut them a break and not to 9 them.The two-females, consequently, were very grateful but kind of 10 because generally, in that same situation there would probably be a different outcome and they’d be 11 .Lima took things a step further in an effort to aid the family.

Passage 1Parents 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 common 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 havedifferent 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 room for 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 but at 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. Communication is a two-way process. It is only by listening to and 15 each other that problems between parents and children can be settled.1 A.natural B.strong C.guilty D.similar2 A.interest B.argument C.link D.knowledge3 A.noisy B.crowded C.messy D.locked4 A.homework B.housework C.problem D.research5 A.washing B.using C.dropping D.replacing6 A.approaches B.contributions C.introductions D.attitudes7 A.complex B.popular C.scientific D.successful8 A.later B.deliberately C.seldom D.thoroughly9 A.behavior B.taste C.future D.nature10 A.failures B.changes C.consequences D.thrills11 A.defend B.delay C.repeat D.reconsider12 A.communication B.bond C.friendship D.trust13 A.reply B.attend C.attach D.talk14 A.hate B.scold C.frighten D.stop15 A.loving B.observing C.understanding D.praisingPassage 2In America, if you are invited to a wedding, baby shower, bar mitzvah(成人礼)or other celebrations, you’re expected to bring a gift. Usually, it should be modest in 1 , about $25.For a wedding, the bride will often have “registered” a l ist of gifts at a local department store, indicating the items she 2 .When you buy a registered item, tell the store that you’re doing this, so the couple doesn’t receive the 3 gift twice. For a baby shower, bring a gift 4 for a new born baby. For a bar mitzvah, bring a gift appropriate for a 13-year-old boy. Because they are such important occasions, gifts for bar mitzvahs tend to be more 5 , for example, a gold-plated pen. 6 the pen by carving the boy’s full name will be appreciated.If you wish to give a gift to American friends, choose something that is 7 to your country. It needn’t be valuable or8 , just typical of your homeland. 9 include a book about your country, an inexpensive souvenir, or something else that reflects your 10 . Young children who like collecting will probably be very 11 with a set of your country’s coins or stamps. Items that are 12 in your country but difficult to find abroad are also good.If staying with an American family, a good way of expressing your thanks is to take them to a form of 13 , such as a baseball game or a concert.When giving gifts to a business acquaintance, don’t give anything too personal, 14 to a woman.

I’ll get some7 with or without Chinese.” I replied and 8__ my mom for permission.“Remember to ask for fresh fish, Xin Xian Yu,” she said, handing over a $20 bill.I 9 the words, running downstairs into the streets of Chinatown.I found the fish stand surrounded in a sea of customers. “I’d like to buy some fresh fish,” I shouted to the fishman.
