考点规范练22Ⅰ.阅读理解AWhen I revealed that I was planning to travel around Britain by publictransport,everyone I saw said,“Gosh,you’rebrave!”But it never occurred to me to go any other way.Driving in Britain is such a dull experience these days.There are far too many cars on the road,nearly double what there were when I first came here,and in those days people didn’t actually drive their cars.They just parked them in the driveway and cleaned them once every week,orso.About twice a year they would “get the car out” for a pleasant drive to visit relatives or take a trip.Now everyone drives everywhere for everything,which I don’t understand because there isn’t a single feature of driving in Britain that has even the tiniest measure of enjoyment in it.Just consider the average multi-storey(多层的) car park.You drive around for ages,and eventually find a space that is exactly two inches wider than the average car.Then,because you are parked next to a pillar(柱子),you have to climb over the seats and end up squeezing out of the passenger door,in the process transferring all the dirt from the side of your car to the back of your smart new jacket.Then you go hunting for some distant pay-and-display machine,which doesn’t give change.And that’s just one tiny part of the drivi ng experience.There are all the other annoyances of motoring,like traffic lights on busy roundabouts(环状交叉路) that never let you advance more than 20 feet at a time,and motorway service areas where food is much more expensive.Motorized vehicles are ugly and dirty.They occupy every pavement,turn ancient market squares into disorderly and untidy groups of metal,and cause petrol stations and other discouraging places to appear in great numbers.They are horrible and awful and I wanted nothing to do with them on this trip.1.Why did the author decide to travel by public transport?A.Because he didn’t have a car.B.Because he hated driving in Britain.C.Because he wasn’t familiar with roads in Britain.D.Because he was inspired by how people used to travel.2.What did the author mainly complain about in Paragraph 2?A.The inconvenience of parking cars.B.The unreasonable parking fees.C.The uncleanness of car parks.D.The improper use of cars.3.How is the last paragraph developed?A.By providing examples.B.By making comparisons.C.By following the order of time.D.By following the order of space.4.What would the author probably talk about in the paragraph that follows?A.The terrible places caused by vehicles.B.The bother caused by driving cars.C.His travels by public transport.D.His past driving experience.BLondon is a real treat for museum lovers and museums are a popular destination among London’s many attractions.There are hundreds to choose from.Below is a list of London’s top museums.◆LondonTransportMuseumThis is a great,child-friendly museum which combines education withactivities.Housed in huge iron and glass structure,the museum posses a wonderful and colorful collection of more than 80 vehicles spanning 200 years of London’shistory,including a re d Routemaster bus and the world’s first Underground steam train.There are some great posters and artwork too!Tickets from £16.◆TheScienceMuseumFrom the future of space travel to asking that difficult question:“who amI?”,the Science Museum makes your brain perform Olympic-standard mental

permanently fascinating!) dinosaur exhibition,the Natural History Museum boasts a collection of the biggest,tallest and rarest animals in the world.See a life-sized blue whale,a 40-million-year-old

MuseumB.The Science MuseumC.The Natural History MuseumD.Museum of London7.What does the Science Museum offer kids?A.Chances to make films.B.Hands-on experience.C.Some Olympic events.D.Great posters and artwork.Ⅱ.七选五阅读(2019·云南昆明质检)Is there a best way to pack clothes?The following ideas are of great help to those who are always on the way.Where to start?1 Once you see how much you lay in front of you,be brave and reduce about a third.Because the truth is like your wardrobe,you never seem to use as much as you take.How to deal with clothing?Start with your shoes.Put underwear or socks inside them to hold the shape of your shoes.Thus,you can make use of every square inch of space.Once your shoes are firmly in place,fill small gaps with very soft items. 2Lay out the first clothes with one end inside the suitcase and the other end dropping over the edge.Put the next clothes on top of this,but place them the other way around. 3 In this way,you’ll get another flat layer soon.Finally,one by one,fold the clothes back in.Where to put non-clothing?4 These awkward shaped items are difficult to pack.You’d better put them towards the middle give maximum protection.Remember to double bag your toiletrykit(洗漱袋) to avoid spotting your clothes.Top tips:If you take a belt,slip them along the inside of your case. 5 That will take more space.Next,use the hard shape of the case to offer protection.Leave yourtoiletry kit in your suitcase,when you return home.It’s ready for the next time you travel.A.Don’t roll belts up.B.Be sure to put away socks.C.This idea will create a flat first layer.D.And then continue laying other clothes.E.That will make the job a whole lot easier.y everything you want to take with you on the bed.G.Non-clothing items are things like books,toothbrushes and cameras.Ⅲ.短文改错(2020·广西柳州高级中学模拟)Dear Tom,How time flies!Next week is your birthday.Happy birthday for you!I’ve sent you a can of tea as a gift,which I hope you will like it.Now I will introduce Chinese

一轮复习最新高考英语阅读理解练习题(及答案)一、高中英语阅读理解1.阅读理解Babies born in summer are more likely to become short-sighted in late life, a study has shown. As many as a quarter of all cases of short-sightedness are caused by too great an exposure to sunlight in the first weeks of life, say eye experts.They are advising all parents to put sunglasses on their babies during the first weeks. Scientists had already established that over-exposure to sunlight caused shortsightedness in animals.Researchers who compared the months in which babies were born with whether they needed glasses later on say the principle also applies to humans.A study of almost 300, 000 young adults-the largest of its kind-showed that those born in June and July had a 25 per cent greater chance of becoming severely short-sighted than those born in December or January.Research leader Professor Michael Belkin, of Tel Aviv University, said it was because prolonged illumination(光照) causes the eyeball to lengthen-causing short-sightedness.Hence the more light a newborn is exposed to, the more the eyeball lengthens and the worse the short-sightedness will be.The mechanism which lengthens the eyeball is associated with levels of melatonin(褪黑激素), a pigment (色素) which protects the skin against harmful rays of the sun.In young babies not enough melatonin is released as protection, meaning they are more vulnerable to sunburn and changes to eyeball shape.Sight expert Professor Daniel O'Leary, of Anglia Ruskin University in Cambridge, said "At the moment we don't know the precise cause of why light exposure affects sight, but the evidence seems to prove that it is one of the reasons for people becoming shortsighted."(1)Babies born in summer are more likely to be shortsighted ____________.A. because the summer sun is too strong for babiesB. because babies born in summer have lengthened eyeballsC. if they are exposed too much sunlight in the first weeks after they are born D if parents don't know a proper way to protect their babies' eyes(2)Melatonin is a kind of material to ___________.A. prevent the eyes from becoming near-sightedB. protect the skin from harmful sun raysC. make our body strongD. protect babies' eyes from summer sun(3)From what Professor Daniel O'Leary says we can conclude that ___________.A. there is no evidence that shortsightedness is related to exposure to sunlightB. whether light exposure affects sight still needs to be further provedC. he believes that light exposure can cause shortsightednessD. he tries to give the cause of why light exposure affects sight(4)The underlined word "vulnerable" in the passage probably means __________.A. easy to be harmedB. resistantC. protectiveD. changeable【答案】(1)C(2)B(3)C(4)A【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文,研究表明在夏季出生的婴儿长大后更容易成为近视眼,眼科专家称多达四分之一的近视眼病例是由于在出生后前几周里暴露阳光太久造成。

scene that had been repeated many times in the theater’s 75-year history.Thistime,however,the cleanup was a little different.As one group of workers carried out the rubbish,another group began removing seats and other theater e quipment in preparation for the building’s end.The film classic TheLastPictureShow was the last movie shown in the oldtheater.Though the movie is 30 years old,most of the 250 seats were filled withteary-eyed audience wanting to say goodbye to the old building.Theater owner Ed Bradford said he chose the movie because it seemed appropriate.The movie is set in a small town where the only movie theater is preparing to close down.Bradford said that large modern theaters in the city made it impossible for the Plaza to compete.He added that the theater’s

were in great demand and transformed westerners’ way of life completely.However,China’s political and economic power declined during the 19th century. 1Now,Americans,onceagain,are turning to Chinese culture to enrich their life.And it is becoming a new trend.Apart from their love affair with Chinese cuisine,moreAmericans are turning to Chinese medicine,fashions and art. 2 The latest Chinese cultural icon to make its impact there is Tao,the philosophy of Lao Zi.The Americans who take to Tao come from all the fields of society. 3 It owed its early success to the efforts of a handful of Chinese experts.Today,many Americans are believers of it.Its believers find its straightforward approach to daily living an effective balance to materialism,and it helps them to reduce the influence of technology on their lives.Taoism emphasizes balance,harmony and peace at home and at work. 4 Once their mental and physical well-being are balanced,then good health,work efficiency and prosperity will come their way naturally.5 One is closely connected with the rise of China as a potential world political and economic superpower.China’s reopening up to the outside world has enabled more Americans to travel there to experience the oriental civilisation.The thriving Chinese communities in many American urban centres and their reputation as a model minority have aroused further their interests in this distant land,which is so vastly different from theirs.A.Followingthis,its cultural appeal lost its shine.B.This helps them overcome stresses from modern living.C.The successes among them are reaping handsome financial rewards.D.Several factors have driven the popularity of Chinese culture in America.E.They can be intellectuals,businessgiants,Hollywood celebrities or even

考点规范练2Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2018·全国Ⅰ)Languages have been coming and going for thousands of years,but in recent times there has been less coming and a lot more going.When the world was still populated by hunter-gatherers,small,tightly knit(联系) groups developed their own patterns of speech independent of each other.Some language experts believe that 10,000 years ago,when the world had just five to ten million people,they spoke perhaps 12,000 languages between them.Soon afterwards,many of those people started settling down to become farmers,and their languages too became more settled and fewer in number.In recentcenturies,trade,industrialisation,the development of the nation-state and the spread of universal compulsory education,especiallyglobalisation and better communications in the past few decades,all have caused many languages to disappear,anddominant languages such as English,Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over.At present,the world has about 6,800 languages.The distribution of these languages is hugely uneven.The general rule is that mild zones have relatively few languages,often spoken by many people,whilehot,wet zones have lots,often spoken by small numbers.Europe has only around 200 languages;the Americas about 1,000;Africa 2,400;and Asia and the Pacific perhaps 3,200,of which Papua New Guinea alone accounts for well over 800.The median number(中位数) of speakers is a mere 6,000,which means that half the world’s languages are spoken by fewer people than that.Already well over 400 of the total of 6,800 languages are close to extinction(消亡),with only a few elderly speakers left.Pick,atrandom,Busuu in Cameroon(eight remaining speakers),Chiapaneco in Mexico(150),Lipan Apache in the United States(two or three) or Wadjigu in Australia(one,with a question-mark):none of these seems to have much chance of survival.1.What can we infer about languages in hunter-gatherer times?A.They developed very fast.B.They were large in number.C.They had similar patterns.D.They were closely connected.2.Which of the following best explains“dominant”underlined in paragraph 2?plex.B.Advanced.C.Powerful.D.Modern.3.How many languages are spoken by less than 6,000 people at present?A.About 6,800.B.About 3,400.C.About 2,400.D.About 1,200.4.What is the main idea of the text?A.New languages will be created.B.People’s lifestyles are reflected in languages.C.Human development results in fewer languages.D.Geography determines language evolution.BAs a student,I thought English was easy to learn but then I did not like our teacher,so I didn’t pay much attention to it.Little did I know then how much English would be a part of my life one day.Many years later,I was the branch manager of a company in munication with a lot of people from different countries was just one of many daily tasks.I was having no problem understanding and communicating with any of them with one big exception:my boss is from England and English,spoken by British people,will always be my biggest challenge.In 1998,I moved to the Bahamas.And I realized I was lost when it came to small talk.Fortunately,it did not take me long to have personal conversations.About a year after my move,I realized that I even started dreaming in English and all my thoughts came in English as well.It’s kind of funny when you experience that,especially since I lived most of my life in Germany.Three years ago I met my husband,who is from Liverpool.The first couple of months I had headaches just from concentrating so hard on what he was saying.One part of our conversations in the beginning of our relationship became famous in our circle of friends.Let me share it with you:Here we are,sitting on the sofa,having a nice conversation and during that conversation he asked me,“Honey,how many holes do you have in your ear?”A weird(怪异的) question,I thought but answered anyway.“Three in my left and two holes in my right ear,mydear.”I had not even finished my sentence when he broke out in fits of laughter.When he finally caught hisbreath,he said,“Honey,my question was how many holidays do you have in a year?”and started laughing again.Even though I have lived and worked in an English speaking country now for over eight years,there are still words I don’t know.There are still times when I can’t find the right word to express myself.5.When the author was young,she .A.liked her English teacherB.didn’t try very hard to learn EnglishC.didn’t think English was easy to learnD.believed English was important to her6.After the author came to the Bahamas,she .A.failed to dream in EnglishB.tried to learn business EnglishC.found it difficult to make small talkD.found she was good at personal conversations7.Why did the author’s husband laugh?A.She told a funny story.B.She misheard his question.C.He saw her strange earholes.D.He misunderstood her answer.8.Which can be the best title for the text?A.Challenges of acquiring EnglishB.How to learn English efficientlyC.The importance of learning EnglishD.How my husband taught me EnglishⅡ.七选五阅读HowtoRememberWhatYouReadReading is important.But the next step is making sure that

考点规范练17Ⅰ.阅读理解Three experimental fields of seawater rice were harvested in China on Wednesday,a further step toward its future practical use.Also known as saline-alkali tolerantrice(耐盐碱水稻),the seawater rice is designed to grow in seaside flats or other areas with high salt content and has been developed by experts throughcrossbreeding(杂交) and other technologies.One type of seawater rice growing in Qingdao’sChengyangdistrict,ShandongProvince,produced 3.9 metric tons(公吨) per hectare(公顷),experts announced.Once widely planted in large areas,the output could be much higher.The Qingdao Saline-Alkali Tolerant Rice Research and Development Center,led by renowned Chinese agricultural scientist Yuan Longping,was established several years ago.It set itself a three-year target of developing a kind of salt-resistant rice capable of producing 4.5 tons a hectare,which would guarantee growers the minimum acceptable level of profit.The average rice output in China is 6.75 tons a hectare.Planting in the experimental field in Chengyang district and five other plots of saline-alkali land started at the end of May.The five other plots were inDongying,ShandongProvince;Wenzhou,ZhejiangProvince;Yan’an,ShaanxiProvince;Kashgar,th e Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region;andDaqing,HeilongjiangProvince.The sites represent actually every type of saline-alkali land in China and researchers aim to grow different kinds of rice able to cope with different climate,salinity and soil structure conditions.The test crops in Kashgar and Daqing were also harvested onWednesday.InKashgar,the output reached more than 7.5 tons per hectare,according to experts’tests,much higher than expected.The harvest in Kashgar was satisfactory.The result means it is possible to plant such salt-resistant rice in southern Xinjiang in the future.Xinjiang has about 2 million hectares of saline-alkali land that have the potential to be planted with salt-resistant rice,and if it is widely planted it will generally improve rice production in the region.The seawater rice grown in Daqing only produced 3.1 tons per hectare.A live video on Shandong TV showed growers appearing a little disappointed by the result,as they hoped the experts’ efforts would increase production greatly.The water and soil conditions of the site were not ideal,and the pH level was extremely high.1.Which is the main feature of seawater rice according to the text?A.It has a shorter growing period.B.It is a kind of highly productive crop.C.It can grow in the soil with high salt content.D.It is the combination of many technologies.2.How much rice does a farmer harvest at least to meet the cost?A.3.9 tons a hectare.B.4.5 tons a hectare.C.6.75 tons a hectare.D.7.5 tons a hectare.3.The researchers chose the experimental fields according to .A.the distance between themB.the type of the soil and climateC.the local governments’ supportD.the local agricultural conditions4.What can we infer about the seawater rice from the last paragraph?A.The seawater rice is not fit for all kinds of saline-alkali soils.B.It is impossible for the seawater rice to have a good harvest.C.Growers from Shandong Province were a little disappointed by the result.D.The output of the seawater rice grown in Daqing is the lowest.Ⅱ.完形填空(2019·浙江)There are lots of ways to raise

体裁:议论文话题:家庭教育词数:726 时间是:8′Is gun play good or bad for children?For many years I emphasized its harmlessness.When concerned parents expressed doubt about letting their children have toy guns,because they didn't want to encourage them in the slightest degree to become criminals,I would explain how little connection there was.In the course of growing up,children have a natural tendency to bring their aggressiveness more and more under control if their parents encourage this.Onetotwoyearolds,when they are angry with another child,may bite the child's arm without hesitation.But by 3 or 4 they have already learned that aggression is not right.However,they may pretend to shoot their mother or father,but smiling to assure them that the gun and the aggressive behaviour aren't to be taken seriously.In the 6to12yearold period,children will play an earnest game of war,but it has lots of rules.There may be arguments,but real fights are relatively rare.At this age children don't shoot at their mother or father,even in fun.It's not that the parents have turned stricter; the children's own conscience has.In adolescence aggressive feelings become much stronger,but well brough tup children can turn them intoathletics and other competition or into kidding their friends.In other words,I'd explain that playing at war is a natural step in the disciplining of the aggression of young children; that a cautious parent doesn't really need to worry about producing a criminal.But nowadays I'd give parents much more encouragement to guide their child away from violence.A number of incidents have convinced me of the importance of this.One of the first things that made me change my mind,several years ago,was an observation that an experienced nursery school teacher told me about.Her children were hitting each other much more than previously,without reason.When she talked to them,they would protest,“But that's what the Three Stooges do.〞 (This was a children's TV program full of violence which immediately became very popular.)What further shocked me into reconsidering my view was the assassination(暗杀) of the former President,and the fact that some schoolchildren cheered about this.(I didn't so much blame the children as I blamed the kind of parents who will say about a President they dislike,“I'd shoot him if I got the chance!〞)These incidents made me think of other evidence that Americans often tolerate lawlessness and violence.We were hard on the Indians and the later waves of immigrants.At times we denied justice to groups with different religions or political views.And now a great percentage of our adult as well as our child population has been endlessly fascinated with dramas of Western violence and with cruel crime stories,in movies and on television.This doesn't necessarily mean that we Americans on the average have more aggressiveness inside us than the people of other nations.I think rather that the aggressiveness we have is less controlled,from childhood on.To me it seems very clear that in order to have a more stable and civilized national life we must bring up the next generation of Americans with a greater respect for law and for other people's rights than in the past.There are many ways in which we could and should teach these attitudes.One simple opportunity we could seize in the first half of childhood is to show our disapproval of lawlessness and violence in television programs and in children's gun play.I also believe that the survival of the world now depends on a much greater awareness of the need to avoid war and to actively seek peaceful agreements.There are enough nuclear arms to completely destroy all civilization.This terrifying situation demands a much greater stabili ty and selfcontrol on the part of national leaders and citizens than they have ever shown in the past.We owe it to our children to prepare them deliberately for this awesome responsibility.【语篇解读】本文是一篇议论文。

The story all began with a simple announcement from the church wall one Sunday morning. LaSalle Street Church’s pastor, Laura Truax,told his 320 regular members that the church had recently received a large $ 1. 6 million profit in a real estate deal (房地产交易) and that she would set aside that amount by 10 percent to divide among her parishioners (教区居民).Each would get a $500 check to do something positive for someone, and someone could be the parishioners themselves. The money came with no conditions attached; parishioners did not have to provide proof of money spent. It just came with the hope that the money would be used for good.LaSalle’s congregation (集会)is racially and financially diverse; More than 60 percent of members have advanced degrees while about a third live a paycheck-to-paycheck life. Truax had no idea how her experiment would work. She only hoped that it would make her parishioners a part of the giving process and engage them in the church and in their community. So far, her idea seems to be paying off.Checks from LaSalle Street Church have been used to fund everything from swall international projects---including a school in the Himalayas, a health clinic in and an irrigation project in Tanzania---to help local families and friends in trouble. One congregant is helping to fund a skateboarding park in Amman, Jordaa, where he lived for many years. Another is using her money to start a scholarship foundation for local kids. Another has used her money to buy winter clothing for the kids at her daughter's school."1 hoped that they would recognize the power they had to bless others and change somebody's life, "Truax told Yahoo News. “I hoped that they wo uld see their connection between their little piece and the bigger thing the church was called to1.

He has vowed that he will not stop building his business until it is worth £100 million. But hard-working Owens can stop for at least a moment's celebration after making his first £1 million at the age of 16.
