（英语）高二英语阅读理解(人生百味)解题技巧及练习题(含答案)含解析一、高中英语阅读理解人生百味类1．阅读理解A robot created by Washington State University (WSU) scientists could help elderly people with dementia (痴呆) and other limitations live independently in their own homes.The Robot Activity Support System or RAS, uses sensors installed in a WSU smart home to determine where its residents are, what they are doing and when they need assistance with daily activities. It navigates (定位) through rooms and around obstacles to find people on its own, provides video instructions on how to do simple tasks and can even lead its owner to objects like their medication or a snack in the kitchen."RAS combines the convenience of a mobile robot with the activity detection technology of a WSU smart home to provide assistance in the moment, as the need for help is detected," said Bryan Minor, a postdoctoral researcher in the WSU School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science.Currently, an estimated 50 percent of adults over the age of 85 need assistance with every day activities such as preparing meals and taking medication and the annual cost for this assistance in the US is nearly $2 trillion. With the number of adults over 85 expected to triple by 2050, researchers hope that technologies like RAS and the WSU smart home will relieve some of the financial strain on the healthcare system by making it easier for older adults to live alone.RAS is the first robot researchers have tried to incorporate into their smart home environment. They recently published a study in the journal Cognitive Systems Research that demonstrates how RAS could make life easier for older adults struggling to live independently."While we are still in an early stage of development, our initial results with RAS have been promising," Minor said. "The next step in the research will be to test RAS' performance with a group of older adults to get a better idea of what prompts, video reminders and other preferences they have regarding the robot."（1）How does RAS serve elderly people?A. Through sensors.B. Through objects.C. Through a mobile robot.D. Through their daily activities.（2）What can we know about RAS?A. It is the first robot used in daily life.B. Its function remains to be tested.C. It can locate people and do any task.D. It can cook for owners on its own.（3）What's Minor's attitude toward the future of RAS?A. Doubtful.B. Negative.C. Optimistic.D. Uncertain.（4）What can be a suitable title for the text?A. Elderly people leave the nursing home.B. Smart Home Tests first elder-Care robot.C. RAS, the first robot to make home smart.D. Older adults have benefited from RAS.【答案】（1）A（2）B（3）C（4）B【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了一款由美国华盛顿州立大学的科学家们研发的机器人，可以帮助那些痴呆或有身体缺陷的老年人在家里过上自立的生活。

本话题包括动植物保护、生态保护、自然灾害、环境污染和保护等方面。

这些话题与学生的生活息息相关，联系密切。

通过对这些话题的学习以及高考英语对这些话题的考查，可以让学生多注意身边的人和事、关注社会环境、树立环保意识、学会与大自然和谐相处。

【技巧点拨】1.运用语篇结构，概括全文主旨大意，明晰写作意图。

在阅读时，首先用略读法快速浏览每段的首尾句，分析原文的文本结构，然后根据作者谋篇布局的逻辑线索归纳主旨大意。

如果文章中含有标题、副标题、图片等，在概括全文主旨大意和写作目的时需要重点考虑。

根据英语说明文思维模式特征，作者一般都会开门见山，直奔主题。

结尾通常也是中心思想的概括，并与导语相呼应。

因此在做主旨大意、写作意图和最佳标题等题目时，需要重点关注首尾段落里面高频复现的词汇和内容。

导语、主体和结尾是有机整体，解题时要综合起来进行判断。

2.利用文中语境线索分析长难句，进行逻辑推理判断。

在阅读解题时，第一步可以浏览全文，掌握中心大意。

第二步可以根据题干要求，用查读法（scanning）再快速定位到相关段落。

第三步可以重点搜索段内的标志词，利用标志词所提供的逻辑关系找到细节信息，如数据、例子、原因和结果等。

如果句子成分复杂，有生词，也不要烦躁退缩，分析主句和从句或非谓语动词之间的关系，抓住行文逻辑的标志词，层层剖析，露出主干部分，就能明晰句意，弄懂作者的真实意图。

But some ecologists and fashion (时装)enthusiasts are trying to bring back the market for fur made from nutria(海狸鼠).Unusual fashion shows in New Orleans and Brooklyn have(showcased)nutria fur made into clothes in different styles. “It sounds crazy to talk about guilt-free fur-unless you understand that the nutria are destroying vast wetlands every year”, says Cree McCree, project director of Righteous Fur.Scientists in Louisiana were so concerned that they decided to pay hunters $5 a tail. Some of the fur ends up in the fashion shows like the one in Brooklyn last month.Nutria were brought there from Argentina by fur farmers and let go into the wild. “The ecosystem down there can’t handle this non-native species(物种).It’s destroying the environment. It’s them or us.”says Michael Massimi, an expert in this field.The fur trade kept nutria check for decades，but when the market for nutria collapsed in the late 1980s，the cat-sized animals multiplied like crazy.Biologist Edmond Mouton runs the nutria control program for Louisiana. He says it’s not easy to convince people that nutria fur is green, but he has no doubt about it. Hunters bring in more than 300,000 nutria tails a year, so part of Mouton’s job these days is trying to promote fur.Then there’s Righteous Fur and its unusual fashion. Morgan says，”To give people a guilt-free option that they can wear without someone throwing paint on them-1 think that’s going to be a massive thing, at least here in New York.”Designer Jennifer Anderson admits it took her a while to e around to the opinion that using nutria fur for her creations is morally acceptable. She trying to e up with a label to attach to nutria fashions to show it is eco-friendly.28．What is the purpose of the fashion shows in New Orleans and Brooklyn?A．To promote guilt-free fur.B．To expand the fashion market.C．To introduce a new brand.D．To celebrate a winter holiday.29．Why are scientists concerned about nutria?A．Nutria damage the ecosystem seriously.B．Nutria are an endangered species.C．Nutria hurt local cat-sized animals.D．Nutria are illegally hunted.30．What does the underlined word “collapsed”in paragraph 5 probably mean? A．Boomed.B．Became mature.C．Remained stable.D．Crashed.31．What can we infer about wearing fur in New York according to Morgan?A．It’s formal.B．It’s risky.C．It’s harmful.D．It’s traditional.【答案】28．A29．A30．D31．B【解析】本文是说明文。

One was a very rich banker, another owned one of the largest companies in the world, and the third owned many buildings in the center of New York. The reporter was talking to them about being important.“How do we know if someone is really important?” the reporter asked the banker. The banker thought for a few moments and then said, “I think anybody who is invited to the White House to meet the President of the United States is really important.”The reporter then turned to the owner of the very large company. “Do you agree with that?” she asked.The man shook his head, “No. I think the President invites a lot of people to the White House. You’d only be important if while you were visiting the President, there was a telephone call from the president of another country, and the President of the US said he was too busy to answer it.”The reporter turned to the third man. “Do you think so?”“No, I don’t.” he said. “I don’t think that makesthe visitor important. That makes the President important.”“Then what would make the visitor important?” the reporter and the other two men asked.“Oh, I think if the visitor to the White House was talking to the President and the phone rang, and the President picked up the receiver, listened and then said, ‘it’s for you.’”1.This story happened in _______.A.
