The question of whether our government shoul d promote science and technol ogy or the liberal arts in higher education is not an either/ or proposition(命题)，although the current emphasis on preparing young Americans for STEM (science, technol ogy, engineering, maths)-related fields can make it seem that way.The latest congressional report acknowl edges the critical importance of technical training, but also stresses that the study of the humanities and social sciences must remain central elements of American’s educational system at all levels. Both are critical to producing citizens who can participate effectively in our democratic society, become innovative lead ers, and benefit from the spiritual enrichment that the refl ection on the great id eas of mankind over time provides.Parents and students who have invested heavily in higher education worry about graduates’ job prospects(前景) as technol ogical advances and changes in d omestic and global markets transform professions in ways that reduce wages and cut jobs. Und er this circumstances, it’s natural to look for what may appear to be the most “practical” way out of the probl em. “Major in a subject designed to get you a job” seems the obvious answer to some, though this ignores the fact that many disciplines in the humanities characterized as “soft” often, in fact, lead to empl oyment and success in the l ong run. Indeed, according to surveys, empl oyers have expressed a preference for stud ents who have received a broadly-based education that has taught them to write well, think critically, research creatively, and communicate easily.Moreover, students shoul d be prepared not just for their first job, but for their fourth and fifth jobs, as there is littl e reason to d oubt that people entering the workforce today will be call ed upon to play many different rol es over the course of their careers. The ones who will do the best in this new environment will be those whose educations have prepared them to be flexibl e. The ability to draw upon every available tool and insight-picked up from science, arts, and technol ogy- to solve the problems of the future, and take advantage of the opportunities that present themselves, will be helpful to them and the United States.8．What does the latest congressional report suggest?A．Higher education shoul d be adjusted to the practical needs of society.B．The liberal arts in higher education help enrich stud ents’ spiritual life.C．STEM-related subjects help students find jobs in the information society.D．The humanities and STEM subjects should be given equal importance.9．What does the author say about the so called soft subjects?A．They are essential to stud ents’ healthy growth.B．They improve stud ents’ communication skills.C．They broaden students range of interests.D．They benefit stud ents in their future life.10．What is the main concern of students when they choose a major?A．The academic value of the courses.B．Their interest in relevant subjects.C．Their chances of getting a good job.D．the quality of education to receive.11．What advice does the author give to college stud ents?A．Try to take a variety of practical courses.B．Prepare themselves for different job options.C．Ad opt a fl exible approach to solving problems.D．Seize opportunities to tap their potential.School Counseling（咨询）In our grandparents' time, it was unthinkable．In our parents' time, it was unusual and nobody spoke openly about counseling．These days, more and more schools are asking for this service and it is consid ered a necessity for most．Why is it? What has changed in the last fifty years to have mad e counseling at schools so important?“One reason is that we expect schools to d o more to protect their pupils than we did in the past," says school counselor, Mike Hudson．“ Also, our society d oesn't work as well as it should．Many parents are either und er pressure of work or face the economic problems of unempl oyment, whil e children are under more and more pressure to do well at school．Many pupils feel they are pushed to their limits by their parents and teachers．"Most school children face some kind of relationship problem at some stage with family members, teachers or other pupils, so．it helps to have somebody to talk to．From the pupil' s point of view, it is easier to talk to a counsel or in confidence rather than a family member or teacher．This solution is less embarrassing to pupils, who are not forced to face the person that they had problems with in the first place．They can calmly talkthings through without arguments．School counsel ors advise not only students but also their teachers and parents, and offer other services as well, such as deciding learning disabilities or assisting parents and guardians to make the correct decisions about their children' s education．Counsel ors can help stud ents with probl ems ranging from the most serious, like a death in the family, to what an adult would consider really trivial, like an argument with a friend．In a society that is becoming more and more stressful, this service is providing children with a supportive way to express their fear and worries．12．Why is school counseling becoming important?A．Pupils are not well protected in school．B．Parents can't help their children in learning．C．Parents and pupils are under too much pressure．D．The relationship between parents and schools is worse．13．According to the passage, school counselors________．A．bear high pressure themselvesB．are the guarantee of school successC．have more responsibilities than teachersD．are more likely to be accepted when pupils have problems14．The underlined word "trivial" in Para．5 probably means________．A．unimportant B．puzzlingC．difficult D．urgent15．What d oes the passage mainly talk about?A．The development of school counseling．B．The reaso ns for school counseling’s popularity．C．The advantages and disadvantages of school counseling．D．The comparison of the past and present school counseling．In America, when the eighth graders leave the mid dl e school, they are often worriedabout moving to the high school. It is a hard time for them, but it can be an exciting one as well. To make it easier, stud ents need to get familiar with their school.Even though they’ve done this already in the mid dl e school, it’s still important to find where their classrooms are. Most schools take stud ents to the high school for a visit at the end of their eighth grad e year. And, most schools also have a freshman (新生) speech for parents and students before the first year begins. Sometimes the main office will give away a map of the school. This can help stud ents and parents to find different places in the school.One way to know your high school more and make new friends is to join a club or play a sport. Schools often offer chances to join different clubs and sports. Fall activities begin in August before the first day of school. If you are not interested in sports, there are clubs for any interest, such as drama, dance, chess, photography, community service, etc. These clubs all ow students from different grad es. By joining an activity, stud ents can find new friendships, not to mention improving their chances in future college applications (申请). The school office will have a list of activities offered at the school and information on how to join them.What’s more, to have a great start to a high school year, students can write d own some of their worries, and ask for help from teachers and school workers.16．According to the text, most stud ents feel ________ when entering the high school.

Because of the silliness, creativity, and repetition involved, TPRS all ows students to learn easily and remember information effortlesslyMemorizing vocabulary and listening to lectures on grammar are sl ow, inefficient ways to learn a new language. The best way to truly learn and commit new material to memory is through conversation. In our Spanish classes, students can expect to speak up to 80% of each class. By speaking in the new language freely and consistently, stud ents can see progress faster because they are using the new grammar and vocabulary that they have l earned at the same time. This helps the brain remember the new words and grammar structures for future use, making it much easier to progress.24．What d oes the program do?A．It offers weekly Spanish classesB．It focuses more on outd oor activitiesC．It gives teachers a chance to receive trainingD．It provides activities about the Spanish culture25．What is the best way to learn a language according to the text?A．Memorizing a larger vocabularyB．Speaking more in the new language.C．Mastering more grammar structuresD．Writing stories to share with others26．What is the purpose of the text?A．To empl oy experienced Spanish teacherB．To hire foreign volunteers for a programC．To attract teen foreigners to a programD．To introduce language l earning methodsIf a trip to Rome or Paris is in your future, be prepared: The European Union Parliament is calling for an end to visa-free travel Americans. EU lawmakers passed a resolution urging the EU Commission to impose (推行) visas on US citizens traveling into the 28-nation bl oc.The dispute (争论) centers on reciprocal treatment of travelers from EU nations and the United States. While Americans have been able to travel throughout EU member nations without a visa, the US still requires citizens of five EU countries—Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Poland and Romania—to apply for entry visas when visiting the US, Reuters reports. Citizens of the other 23 EU member nations can use the US visa waiver program to enter America. The EU lawmakers are calling for mutual treatment for all EU citizens, says Reuters. They've given the EU Commission two months to respond.The trans-Atlantic visa dispute first came to light in April 2014, according to an EU Parliament news rel ease. At that time, five countries—Australia, Brunei, Canada, Japan and the US—required visas for some EU citizens. Since then, Australia, Brunei and Japan have lifted their visa requirements for all EU citizens. Canada, which currently imposes visa requirements on Bulgarian and Romanian citizens, plans to foll ow suit in next December, leaving just the United States at odds with the issue of reciprocity of visa-free travel with the EU.The EU says if a visa requirement for Americans is introduced, it would be temporary, according to a story in Money, which did not give a time frame.27．Which of the foll owing can replace the und erlined word “reciprocal” in Paragraph 2? A．Cruel. B．Equal.C．Unfair. D．Different.28．Which countries have removed visa requirements for all EU citizens according to the text? A．Australia, Brunei and Japan.B．Australia, Brunei, Canada and Japan.C．Brunei, Canada, Japan and America.D．Australia, Brunei, Canada, Japan and America.29．What may be the best title for the text?A．Americans may soon need a visa for traveling to EuropeB．Americans are limiting the EU citizens to enter AmericaC．The EU citizens can go to America for traveling without visasD．The EU government asks for visa requirement from AmericansIn 2016, China released guidelines forbid ding weird(古怪的) construction, shifting their focus to the “economic, green and beautiful”. Now a new plan certainly fits the bill—Liuzhou Forest City, designed by the Italian firm Stefano Boeri Architetti, will be under construction in southern China.The 175-hectare, self-contained neighborhood will contain more than 70 buildings—including homes, hospitals, hotels, schools and offices—all of which will be covered with 40, 000 trees and almost a million plants.This is the first experiment of the urban environment that's really trying to find a balance with nature.The id ea behind the project is to combine as many plants with the architecture as possible. The plants are expected to absorb almost 10, 000 tons of carbon dioxid e and 57 tons of pollutants per year, and produce 900 tons of oxygen a year, while also decreasing the air temperature and providing a new habitat for displaced wildlife. Solar panels(控制板) on the roofs will collect renewable energy to power the buildings.The project comes on the heels of Stefano Boeri Architetti's Vertical Forest, tworesid ential towers in Milan covered in the equivalent(等同物) of five acres of forest.“We started to imagine if it was possibl e to create an urba n environment by planting many trees in the city, ”Boeri said. China, in his eyes, provided the perfect background for such an ambitious project.But the project's completion is a long way off.Construction is set to begin in 2020.Boeri said there is still a lot of planning and research required before a projected compl etion date can be set. He remains, however, optimistic about the project, and confident about its aim. “I really think that bringing forests into the city is a way to reduce climate change, ”h e said. 30．What can be concluded from the first two paragraphs?A．A ban will be stopped quickly.B．An Italian company will pay for the new plan.C．A new neighborhood will satisfy the guidelines.D．All strange buildings in China have been torn d own.31．What benefit will this project bring about?A．Purifying the air around.

Und er the ban students are not abl e to use their phones at all during school hours, including meal breaks.“I think it’s a good thing. School is not about being on your phone,” Paris mumMarie-Caro line Madel eine tol d AFP. “It’s hard with kids. You can’t control what they see and that’s one of the things that worry me as a parent.”There is no law like this in Australia, but some Australian schools have banned phones.McKinnon Secondary School in Victoria introduced a total ban in February and Principal Pitsa Binnion said this has been a success.McKinnon students still have a Chromebook to use in every class for day-to-day l earning but they’re not all owed to use social media. Ms Binnion said at first“teachers cheered and students moaned (抱怨) ,” but now they’re seeing the advantages. “They come to school and they’re not all owed to use phones at all during the school day, including lunch breaks,” she said.“It’s been wond erful in terms of students comm unicating with each other at lunchtime and not looking at their screen,” she said.Ms Binnion also leads by exampl e and doesn’t use her mobile phone in school. “I think anyone can do it if we’ve done it.”Not everyone agrees with the bans. Western Sydney University technology researcher Dr Joanne Orland o wrote in online magazine The Conversation earlier this year that Australia should not ban phones in schools because it’s important to educate kids to live in the age they are raised in.“A good education fo r students today is knowing how to use technol ogy to learn, communicate and work with ideas,” she wrote. “Banning students from using smartphones is a 1950s response to a 2018 state-of-play.”34．Why did Madeleine welcome the ban?A．School is for studying. B．Kids behave badly nowadays. C．Teachers find it hard to control kids. D．Her kids depend too much on phones. 35．What can we learn about the ban in McKinnon Secondary School?A．Some teachers were against it at first.B．Students can now see the good of the ban.C．Students can use their phones at lunch beaks.D．Teachers have stopped using phones at school as well.36．What d oes the underlined word “Chromebook” in Paragraph 5 probably refer to?A．A book. B．A notebook.C．A learning website. D．A kind of computer.37．What d oes Dr Joanne Orlando think of banning phones in schools?A．It will disconnect parents and kids.

The first warning my husband, Jimmy, 67, and I, 65, got came around 9 p.m., from some text on the TV Jimmy was watching.

高一英语阅读理解训练十九ADear Parents and / or Guardians:I'm reaching out to you today to ask for help in dealing with some behavioral problems. I'mcertain we can not stop people from being rude, but we should be able to expect students to be kind during their time at school. We should be able to provide an environment that leads to greaterlearning and a feeling of acceptance.Over the past four years, we have run many successful support programs for students within the school. We have created a reporting system for students. We have provided students with strategies（策略） they can use, if they are put in an uncomfortable situation. We also have had speakers visit to discuss bullying （霸凌）. However, I'm sad to report that over the past few months the unkindness some of our students are showing is still unacceptable.I've had many parents and students discuss this problem with me. We all hope that our children can be given the skills they need to act properly. I encourage each of you to sit down with your children and discuss with them how to use kind words, how to meet expectations in social settings and how to be respectful （表示尊敬的） of others and themselves.Bullying can come in many forms and can be very hurtful to both the target 目（标） and the bully. Please talk with your children about the different ways bullying can happen and what to do if they see it. I encourage you to talk with your children on what is proper and what is not proper inthe school setting. It is what all of us （parents, educators, and community） should do to teach our children the importance of being kind.Thank you for helping to create a positive （积极的） school environment for everyone.Mrs. Sanders1.What did the school do to prevent bullying?A.It recorded students with a high-tech system.B.It invited speakers to discuss bullying.C.It punished unkind students in public.D.It reported bullying to the police.2.What did Mrs. Sanders expect parents to teach?A.Different forms of bullying.B.

With a little human help, it can create sculptures （雕塑） when connected to a 3D printer.Ai-Da was created to look and act like a human. It has a face covered in silicone “skin”, 3D-printed teeth, and cameras in its eyes. A team of 15 programmers built Ai-Da's software, including instructions that allow the robot to copy the way a human artist might create art —by taking an image （影像） of a situation or object, and using that as a basis for a picture.

The first English people were fishermen there , and they named the place Greenwich , meaning "green village". Later the English kings and queens lived at Greenwich in their beautiful places .The name of the earliest palace was Placentia . Its windows weremade of glass ---the first in England .Henry VIII lived there . He knew that England must be strong at sea . So he started two big ship-yards (船坞) at Greenwich ,and for 350years the ships which were made there were the best in the world .But trouble was coming to Greenwich . In 1649 , a war started in England and for eleven years there was no king . The men who had worked for him at Placentia decided to live the place themselves . They sold allits beautiful things , and boughtsmall pieces of the palacegarden with money . Finally , the war ended and King Charles II came back . But Placentia was falling down . So King Charles built a new and bigger palace , which is now open to the public .At this time , Charles was worried about losing so many of its shipsat sea : their sailors did not know how to tell exactly where they were . So in 1675 , Charles made John Flamsteed , the first astronomer (天文学家) in England , try to find the answer . Flamsteed worked in a new building on the high ground in Greenwich Park . From it with a telescope which he made himself , Flamsteed could look all round the sky . And he did , night after night , for twenty years . Carrying on Flamsteed's work a hundred years later , an astronomer called Harrison finally made a clock which told the time at sea , and helped sailors to know where they were .You can see Harrison's clock , still working , in Greenwich's museum of the sea . Because of Flamsteed's work , every country in the world now tells its time by Greenwich time .___45. The first English people living in the "green village" were _____ .A. sailorsB. fishermenC.

"You'll be blind by the time you're twenty-five," a doctor at Children's Hospital predicted. "Your blood sugars are much too high." It consumed me. No matter where I was or what I was doing, it was overhead like a dark cloud, waiting for just the right opportunity to break open and destroy my world.I liked painting. Losing myself in painting filled me with peace. Painting provided me with the only place where I could escape from those threatening words.When I was twenty-one, my right eye went blind. Precisely three months after my twenty-fifth birthday, I had a massive hemorrhage (大出血) in my left eye because of an accident. For the next twenty years, vision came and went. I went through many eye operations in an attempt to keep my vision. But after one final operation, I lost the battle and all remaining vision. And I buried all dreams of painting.Desperate, I enrolled in (注册) a sixteen-week program for the blind and visually impaired (损伤的). I learned personal adjustment and the use of a computer with adaptive software. A whole new world opened up to me through this program."Jaws and Window-Eyes are leading software for the blind," my instructor told me. "You can use the Internet, e-mail and Microsoft with all its tools and features." It's amazing! Hope went up for the first time in years. "By learning how to use hot keys to control the mouse, you can use Microsoft Access, Excel and Powerpoint," my instructor added.For the next several years, I learned that when one door closes, another door opens. There are plenty of choices available for the blind and visually impaired through the gift of technology. Not only do I have a speaking computer, but I have a speaking watch, alarm clock and calculator.（1）What does the underlined word "it" in Paragraph 1 refer to?A. The right opportunity.B. Losing my sight in the future.C. Consuming too much sugarD. The children's hospital.（2）What happened when the author was 25 years old?A. He gave up painting.B. He went blind completelyC. He injured one of his eyes.D. He picked up a new hobby（3）What brought a turning point to the author?A. A special course.B. A meaningful eventC. An inspiring speech.D. An important interview.（4）What does the author intend to tell us?A. No pain, no gain.B. Every man has his price.C. Nothing is impossible to a willing heart.D.

(英语)高一英语阅读理解题20套(带答案)

（英语）高一英语阅读理解题20套(带答案)一、高中英语阅读理解1．阅读理解Here is a record of the discussion about AI (artificial intelligence) conducted by several scientists:Scientist A: I would say that we are quite a long way off developing the AI, though I do think it will happen within the next thirty or forty years. We will probably remain in control of technology and it will help us solve many of the world's problems. However, no one really knows what will happen if machines become more intelligent than humans. They may help us, ignore us or destroy us. I tend to believe AI will have a positive influence on our future lives, but whether that is true will be partly up to us.Scientist B: I have to admit that the potential consequences of creating something that can match or go beyond human intelligence frighten me. Even now, scientists are teaching computers how to learn on their own. At some point in the near future, their intelligence may well take off and develop at an ever-increasing speed. Human beings evolve biologically very slowly and we would be quickly substituted. In the short term, there is the danger that robots will take over millions of human jobs, creating a large underclass of unemployed people. This could mean large-scale poverty and social unrest. In the long term machines might decide the world would be better without humans.Scientist C: I'm a member of the Campaign to Stop Killer Robots. Forget the movie image of a terrifying Terminator stamping on human skulls and think of what's happening right now: military machines like drones, gun turrets and sentry robots are already being used to kill with very little human input. The next step will be autonomous “murderbots” following orders but finally deciding who to kill on their own. It seems clear to me that this would be extremely dangerous for humans. We need to be very cautious indeed about what we ask machines to do.（1）What is Scientist B worried about?A. AI technology will destroy the earth.B. Computers can't think by themselves.C. Robots will take the place of humans.D. Humans will be unhappy without machines.（2）What does the underlined word “this” in the last paragraph refer to?A. I launched the campaign to Stop Killer Robots.B. We forget the movie image of a terrifying Terminator.C. “Murderbots” can't decide by themselves.D. “Murderbots” will be against humans' orders.（3）Which statement is CORRECT according to the record?A. Scientist A thinks AI technology will never develop.B. The employment will be affected by AI technology in the future.C. “Murderbots” will follow the orders of their manufacturers in the wars.D. All the three scientists agree that AI technology will benefit human beings.（4）Who agree(s) AI has more negative aspects than positive aspects?A. Scientist AB. Scientist BC. Scientists B & CD.

高一英语上学期阅读理解专练20篇(带答案)

高一英语上学期阅读理解20篇（一）一As a student, you must be excited to know something about American school students. In fact, just like in China, in the United States, high school is usually divided into two periods, the first two or three years are called “junior high school” and the other is “senior high school”.In China, children enjoy free education of nine years, but in the United States, the students enjoy free education until they are 18 years old. As a result of the free education system (制度), American children have little difficulty in going to senior high school.American high school students can take part in a lot of activities outside of the classroom. The activities are organized by the school, such as joining a music group or a sports team. Certainly, just like us students in China, American students have to work hard in order to get good marks if they want to go to a good university. They take classes in all kinds of subjects all through the high school period. And those who come out with low marks at the end of a school year and who should repeat a grade are often allowed to go on to the next grade.In American high schools, there is fighting or hurting or other kinds of bad behaviors. So children who want to go to university are often sent to suburban (郊区的) high schools, where most students want to go to university and the atmosphere (氛围) is quite different.1. Activities outside of the classroom refer to __________.A. what the students do after class in schoolB. what the students learn in extra classesC. what a music group or a sports team doD. what the teachers do after class for the students2. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. The time of free education in China is longer than that in America.B. Those who get good marks can go to a good university.C. American students can take all kinds of subjects during the high school period.D. They can be allowed to join the next grade even if they fail the school-year exam.3. The writer of the passage tells us the truth that ________.A. the atmosphere in high schools is quite different from that in a universityB. none of the schools in cities are good for learningC. suburban high schools are good places for learningD. all the American students want to go to university二Americans can travel almost anywhere they choose. But to protect its people, the government lists a few dangerous places where Americans cannot go. These places are unfriendly countries or countries at war. There, the traveller might not be safe. These countries are listed in a small book called a passport. This passport is a government request(要求) for the safety of its travelling people. It is also a government' s pledge (保证) that the people will obey the rules of the host country. To receive a passport from the government, a traveller must prove(证明) that he is an American citizen. An American can not go abroad without a passport. Only some close countries such as Canada and Mexico do not ask for passports. Inside the passport is the traveller's picture. Children travelling with their parents are included(包含) in one parent's book. Thousands of people from the United States visit other countries every year. An American traveller might carry plane tickets, money, clothing and many other things, but the most important that he carries inanother country is his passport.1. A passport is not needed when an American goes to .A. foreign countriesB. dangerous areasC. Canada or MexicoD. foreign countries2. From the passage we can see thatA. children can' t travel to foreign countriesB. Americans like travellingC. a traveller is not safe in most countriesD. Americans like to travel to close countries3. Which statement does the passage lead you to believe?A. People should take care of their passports.B. It is not important to have a passport to travel.C. Children are never included in a passport.D. When you are in another country, money is more important than a passport.4. Which of the following statements is true?A.When Americans are travelling in another country, they must obey the rules of the country.B. The American government sometimes allow its people to travel to dangerous places.C. A passport is needed wherever an American is travelling.D. A passport only helps the traveller to know where he will go.三It takes many years for you to grow up. There are two periods in your life when you grow rapidly. The first period begins right after you are born and lasts until you are about six months old. The second period starts when you reach the age of 13. First, girls grow faster than boys, then boys catch up and grow faster and stronger.Your head stops growing earlier than the rest of you. By the time you are ten, your head is nearly full size. The bones of your arms and legs are short when you are a baby. When you reach the age of nine, your bones starts to grow rapidly, and will keep growing until you reach your full height (高度).Besides growing taller, your body changes in other ways. When a boy is about 13 years old, his voice begins to get deeper and he may begin to grow a beard (胡子). At about the age of 13, a girl’s body begins to function (运行) like a woman’s. Some important changes are taking place, changes that makes it possible for boys and girls, when they are older, to become fathers and mothers.1. The first period in your life when you grow very rapidly ____________________.A. lasts about thirteen yearsB. lasts about six monthsC. doesn’t begin until you are about six months oldD. begins when you are six months old2. Your head nearly stop growing __________________.A. when you are bornB. when you are ten years oldC. when you are thirteen years oldD. when you are six months old3. About the age of 13, a child ________________.A. stops growingB. reaching his full heightC. begins to grow a beardD. begins to change in other ways4. The meaning of the last sentence is that __________________.A. boys and girls are not sure to become fathers and mothers when they are oldB. it is necessary for boys and girls to become fathers and mothers when they grow upC. boys and girls must have some important changes before they grow upD. it is important that boys and girls should become fathers and mothers when they are older五Dear Michelle,My mother is not a good example for me and my sister. She smokes, stays out late, and she curses(咒骂). I love her but I am ashamed of her. I do not want to bring my friends home because she does not act like any of the other mothers. She says I am a loser because I sit at home and study. I wish I could live in another family that was normal, but it will be 5 years before I am 18. What am I supposed to do until then?Prisoner of a Crazy HouseDear 7th Grader,I am glad that you love your mother because the rest of your feelings about her may change as you get older and mature.While it is true that your mother’s smoking, partying and cursing bring you shame, the fact that you want to stay separate from her doings is notable and very smart. It shows that you are a winner, not a loser. I am guessing, therefore, that you do not bring shame to yourself, and that is a good thing. So, keep it that way and keep away from your mother’s habits.At the same time, try to get the best grades and join clubs and school activities. Offer social service on weekends and visit your friends at their homes.Fortunately, you are not alone. Many teens live in homes with immature, misguided, selfish parents.

But things now could not be more different. Some British sociologists recently studied the typical British Sunday. They found that people get up later and do less housework than they did 40 years ago. They are far more likely to be out shopping or enjoying themselves than cooking Sunday lunch.Sunday mornings were busy 40 years ago. Most women caught up on their weekly housework and cooked a nice lunch. They seldom allowed themselves any “leisure” until afternoon, after the dishes were cleaned. Then there would be another rush to the table between 5:00 pm and 6:00 pm for tea.But now, Britons can have brunch (早午餐) at the restaurant. Fewer people bother to cook themselves.“You only have two free days a week. You don’t want to have to waste one because there is nothing to do but watch boring TV,” said Elizabeth Biggs, 25, a producer in London.“On Saturday you are recovering from the week,” Biggs added. “Sundays are the last chance for the weekend — you want to get as much as you can out of the day before you have to go back to work.”In the past, British women usually did their shopping during the week, while the husband was at work. “Now men seem to do that as much as women,” said Jonathan Gershuny, a professor who took part in the study.Men also do more housework now on Sundays. Back in the 1960s, men were far more likely to spend Sundays out of the house — at the pub or playing football — before lunch.1. Many Britons have brunch at the restaurant because _______.A. They have no time to cook at home.B. They get up too late.C. They won’t bother to cook themselves.D. They will go to church.2. Which of the following is NOT true?A. Britons used to go to church on Sundays.B. Britons usually had a big lunch at home.C. British women usually did their shopping during the week in the past.D. British men did little housework at home in the past.3. The text mainly tells us ________.A. what Britons did on SundaysB. why Britons go shopping on SundaysC. how Britons spend their holidaysD. the changes of the ways the Britons spend their Sundays4. What can we infer from the passage?A. Men do more housework on Sundays.B. Sundays in Britain might be very boring in the past.C. No people go to church on Sundays now.D. Britons all go out on Sundays.六Young people in most countries like to dance. Different peoples have different kinds of dances.Pretend (假装)that you are in Africa. You are visiting the Kikuyu tribe.Hear the drums beat! Listen to the flutes! Almost 2,000 Kikuyus are meeting for the most important dance of the year.First, the Kikuyus choose a large, flat place for their dance. For hundreds of years, they have danced on an autumn night when the moon is full. The moon and the flame from small fires light the dancers.Older people watch from the side while young men and women gather at the dancing place. The girls wear leather skirts and tops. The men wear fancy headdresses and carry spears. The dancers' skin and clothes are colored by light red chalk. The chalk and the firelight make the dancers look like statues.The dancers act out stories of good and bad deeds. The dances tell stories of lion hunts and other adventures. In one dance, the girls stand on the boys' feet. The girls are pretending to be afraid of snakes.All night the drums beat and the fires burn. But the dancers never seem to get tired.1. The place where the Kikuyu tribe dances is _______.A. flatB. SmallC. hillyD. square2. On the whole, this story is about ______.A. the beat of drumsB. an African danceC.

English speakers are always creating new words and we are often able to know where most words come from.Sometimes, however, no one may really know where a word comes from. Did you ever think about why hamburgers are called hamburgers, especially when they are not made with ham? About a hundred years ago, some men went to America from Europe. They came from a big city in Germany called Hamburg. They didn’t speak good English, but they ate good food. When some Americans saw them eating round piece of beef, they asked the Germans what it was. The Germans didn’t understand the question and answered, “We come from Hamburg.” One of these Americans owned a restaurant, and had an idea. He cooked some round piece of bread and started selling them. Such bread came to be called “hamburgers”. Today, “hamburgers” are sold in many countries around the world.Whether this story is true or not, it certainly is interesting. Knowing why any word has a certain meaning is interesting, too. This reason, for most English words, can be found in any large English dictionary.1 Hamburg is ____________A. a kind of foodB. a round piece of beefC. the name of a villageD. a city in Germany2. According to the passage, ___________.A. few Americans like hamburgersB. hamburgers are made with beefC. hamburgers are made with hamD. hamburgers were first sold about a century ago3 According to the writer, which of the following can often be found in any large English dictionary?A. Where all the new words come from.B. Where those Germans came from.C. The reason why a word has a certain meaning.D. The reason why English is spoken around the world.4 From the story, we can know that the word “hamburger” comes from ___________.A.China because it has a long historyB. English because Germans don’t speak good EnglishC. The round piece of beef which those people from Hamburg were eatingD. English speakers because they always create new words八Every day we go to school and listen to the teacher, and the teacher will ask us some questions. Sometimes, the classmates will ask for your opinions of the work of the class. When you are telling others in the class what you have found out about these topics, remember that they must be able to hear what you are saying. You are not taking part in a family conversation or having a chat with friends—you are in a slightly unnatural situation where a large group of people will remain silent, waiting to hear what you have to say. You must speak so that they can hear you—loudly enough and clearly enough but without trying to shout or appearing to force yourself. Remember, too, that it is the same if you are called to an interview whether it is with a professorof your school or a government official who might meet you. The person you are seeing will try to put you at your ease (not worried) but the situation is somewhat different from that of an ordinary conversation. You must take special care that you can be heard.1. When you speak to the class, you should speak ________.A. as slowly as possibleB. in a low voiceC. loudlyD. forcefully2.

He could face a jail term of between five andtwenty-five years without the option (选择) of a fine.”Security precautions (安全措施) were taken against the man —a resident from the wealthy (富有) Johannesburg suburb of Sandown —on the flight.Airline people didn’t find any explosives or weapons in hi s bags.“Security measures at airport and on plane have been intensified（加强）immediately after the recent horrific and tragic terror（恐怖）attacks in America,”a police statement said.

He owned a very expensive restaurant and spent his days talking to his wealthy and important customers. He liked to say that nothing surprised him. One day he was sitting at the bar in his restaurant when a big gorilla walked in and asked for a table.Henry showed no surprise. He took the gorilla to a table and handed him a menu. He treated him politely and pretended there was nothing at all strange about having a gorilla in his restaurant. The gorilla looked through the menu and ordered a salad.Henry served the gorilla his salad personally, knowing that his waiters and waitresses would be too frightened.At last the gorilla finished his salad and asked for the bill.Henry wrote out the bill and handed it to the big animal.The gorilla studied it, shook his head sadly, then gave Henry fifty dollars.“Thank you”, Henry said, and then to make conversation he added, “We don’t get many gorillas in this restaurant.”“At fifty dollars for a salad,” the gorilla said, “I’m not surprised.”1．What does the under lined word “witness” mean?A. when something happens one sees or notices it on the spotB. to be part ofC. to tell what happensD. to feel unhappy with 2．According to the story, Henry had .A. had the most exciting experiencesB. told the longest storiesC. made historyD. caused accidents3．One day when a gorilla came into the restaurant, Henry was .A. very surprised by the gorillaB. not troubled by the gorillaC. very interested in the gorillaD. scared of the gorilla4．The gorilla was____A. angry with the saladB. still hungry after his saladC. not surprised by the cost of the foodD. surprised by the prices十二How to protect child web fans from unsuitable materials (不合适材料) on-line while encouraging them to use the Internet has long been discussed in the US. For some time, the Internet seems like a forest, filled with dangers for children. But forests have wonders as well as dangers, and with good guides, some education and a few precautions(预防措施) ,the wilds of the Internet can besafely navigated(航行). "Children have to be on-line. If we tell our children they can' t have chances to the Internet, we' re cutting them off from their future," said an expert.Most children have started to use search engines. Many of them are great for finding lots of interesting Internet sites and they can also go to places where you might not want them to go. There are such engines made just for children. A certain software (软件) contains only sites that have been selected as safe. The most popular way to limit chances would be to use what is known as a "content screener(过滤器)”. But this can't be wholly safe, and the best thing parents can do is to talk to their kids and let them know what is OK or not OK to see or do on the Internet. Another way is that mum or dad is nearby when the child is surfing the Internet.A few other tips:1) Don' t put the PC in a child's room, but keep it in a place where mum or dad can keep an eye on things. That also makes the Internet more of a family activity.2) Ask your child not to give on-line strangers personal information, especially like address and phone number.3) Tell your children never to talk to anyone they meet on-line over the phone, send them anything, accept anything from them or agree to meet with them unless you go along.1. What is the main subject about the passage?A. Fighting against children on-line.B. Internet in America.C. American children going on-line.D. Children's web sites.2. According to the passage, we can infer thatA. the writer doesn't encourage children to surf the InternetB. the Internet has a lot of harmful sitesC. the Internet is a forest full of dangersD. a child who is on-line is in danger3. What does the passage tell us most?A. EducationB. Good guidesC. PrecautionsD. Software十四Little Tommy was doing very badly in math. His parents had tried everything—tutors , cards, special learning centers—in short, everything they could think of. Finally they took Tommy to a catholic(天主教的) school.After the first day, little Tommy came home with a very serious look on his face. He didn’t kiss his mother hello. Instead，he went straight to his room and started studying. Books and papers were spread out all over the room and little Tommy was hard at work. His mother was surprised. She called him down to dinner and as soon as he finished eating, he went back to his room, without a word. In no time he was back hitting the books as hard as before. This went on for some time，day after day while the mother tried to understand what was happening.Finally，little Tommy brought home his report card. He quietly put it on the table and went up to his room and hit the books. His mom looked at it and to her surprise，little Tommy got an A in math. She could no longer hold her curiosity .She went to his room and asked, “Son, what was it? Was it the nuns(修女)? ”Little Tommy looked at her and shook his head, “No. ”“Well then,” she asked again. “WHAT was it? ”Little Tommy looked at her and said, “Well, on the first day of school, when I saw that mannailed to the plus sign(加号),I knew they weren’t joking. ”1.

The achievement of Sally Ride, America’s first woman astronaut to fly into space, made this flight especially memorable. Students from two high schools in Camden, New Jersey, however, are likely to remember Norma rather than Sally whenever they think about the flight.Norma didn’t travel along. She brought about 100 companions（伙伴）along with her. Norma was an ant, a queen ant who, with her subjects, made up the first ant colony（群体）to travel into space. The ants were part of a science experiment designed by the students to test the effects of weightlessness on insects.The equipment designed by the students for their colony functioned perfectly through-out the long space trip. The young scientists and their teachers were very sad to find that their insect astronauts had all died at some point before the container was returned to the school and opened. The problem did not occur in space, but on the ground after Challenger had landed. The container remained in the desert for nearly a week before the ant colony was removed. The hot dry desert air dried out the colony’s container（容器）and the ants died from lack of moisture（水分）.The project was termed a success because it did provide useful information. Students will continue their efforts to find out exactly what went wrong. They will try to prevent the same difficulties from recurring on future missions. They don’t want to be discouraged either by the death of the ants or by the $10,000 shuttle fare they will have to pay to send the next colony of ants into space.1. The story is mainly about ___________.A. Sally Ride’s first rideB. space equipment for insectsC. a space experiment with antsD. going to school in New Jersey2. The project wasn’t a failure because ___________.A. some important things were learnedB. dead ants are betterC. everything went as expectedD. students wrote about it3.

【英语】高一英语阅读理解题20套(带答案)一、高中英语阅读理解1．阅读理解LIANG TAO sold 80 pink Givenchy bags in 12 minutes. Becky Fang sold 100 Mini Cooper cars in just five. Both are wanghong, literally “red-hot on the web”. Every day millions of Chinese search social media for wanghong posts or tune in to live-streams for wanghong's opinions on everything. The fans are helping this new Chinese Internet star to make money out of their popularity—and to shake up the country's e-commerce industry in the process.A few of wanghong have been hired by luxury brands. Jaeger-LeCoultre, a Swiss watchmaker, hired Papi Jiang for a video ad targeting young urbanites (都市人), including her 27m fans on Sina Weibo, a Twitter-like microblog. Zhang Yi of iiMedia Research, a consulting firm, estimates that up to 15% of sales on shopping sites like Taobao or social-media apps such as WeChat are influenced by wanghong's public support. The length of a dress might be decided by a survey of a wanghong's fans; its launch date might be based on the number of hits, shares or comments it collects, some of which can cause last-minute design changes.This poses a new challenge for retailers(零售商), whose supply chains must respond ever more quickly to wanghong's opinions. Whereas previously a company would look for a celebrity to match its image, wanghong and their admirers are shaping goods.Another challenge comes directly from wanghong themselves. They increasingly make money not merely from online support or advice but by launching their own e-commerce stores. Sales of goods accounted for just under half of wanghong earnings of 53bn yuan ($8bn) in 2016, estimates Analysys, a Chinese market-research firm (the rest came mostly from live-show tips and adverts).…Some wanghong are going a step further. In November Becky Fang launched her own clothing line. Part of her motivation, she says, was that the brands she supported did not always match the trends she was sharing with her followers. By creating her own brand, Becky's Fantasy, she have full control of the quality. She also gains a new income. For the time being only 3-5% of wanghong follow Becky Fang's example, iiMedia Research estimates. But it expects the model to become an industry in its own right, including entertainment and e-commerce, and driven by online data.（1）Why can wanghong use their popularity to make moneyA. Because they are Internet stars.B. Because they use social media.C. Because their opinions influence fans.D. Because they can shake the e-commerce industry.（2）What is the characteristic of the products supported by wanghongA. It is fans-based.B. It is social-media-based.C. It is design-shared.D. It is youth-targeted.（3）What are the challenges for retailers~A. Online support and advice.B. Increasing sales of goods online.C. Quick responses to the market changes.D. Wanghong's opinions and e-commerce stores.（4）Why do some wanghong create their own brandsA. Because they want to attract more fans.B. Because they want to share with their followers.C. Because they want to set up a new industry model.D. Because the brands they speak for can't satisfy their fans.【答案】（1）C（2）A（3）D?（4）D【解析】【分析】本文是一篇新闻报道，介绍了网红正在利用自身的人气帮助一些品牌销售，在这个过程中撼动中国的电子商务行业。

I enjoyed chatting with Lydia as we watched our kids play.It was what came next that challenged me: Lydia asked if I'd be willing to help her with her English. Now, I am not a teacher. I admire teachers, and I'm grateful for teachers, and it's because I admire what they do so much that I was very very sure that I couldn't do it myself.But Lydia was sure that she wanted my help.

Lydia and I spent afternoons sitting together and reading the newspaper, and as we did, she asked me questions when she had them questions about language, yes, but also questions about the new culture she found herself in.

We bonded over our shared faith and our struggles as mothers of kids with special needs, When I complimented（恭维） her cooking, she began to teach me about Korean food, eventually leading to a shared trip to explore the Korean grocery stores in our city. Because of Lydia, 1 learned more about my own hometown than I ever could have learned by myself. I'm still not sure that I'm any good as a teacher. But I'm grateful I said "yes" when my neighbor asked me to help her with her English. That meant spending extra time with my neighbor, and that extra time meant she didn't remain just my neighbor.

高一英语阅读理解训练十九ADear Parents and / or Guardians:I'm reaching out to you today to ask for help in dealing with some behavioral problems. I'm certain we can not stop people from being rude, but we should be able to expect students to be kind during their time at school. We should be able to provide an environment that leads to greater learning and a feeling of acceptance.Over the past four years, we have run many successful support programs for students within the school. We have created a reporting system for students. We have provided students with strategies (策略) they can use, if they are put in an uncomfortable situation. We also have had speakers visit to discuss bullying (霸凌). However, I'm sad to report that over the past few months the unkindness some of our students are showing is still unacceptable.I've had many parents and students discuss this problem with me. We all hope that our children can be given the skills they need to act properly. I encourage each of you to sit down with your children and discuss with them how to use kind words, how to meet expectations in social settings and how to be respectful (表示尊敬的) of others and themselves.Bullying can come in many forms and can be very hurtful to both the target (目标) and the bully. Please talk with your children about the different ways bullying can happen and what to do if they see it. I encourage you to talk with your children on what is proper and what is not proper in the school setting. It is what all of us (parents, educators, and community) should do to teach our children the importance of being kind.Thank you for helping to create a positive (积极的) school environment for everyone.Mrs. Sanders1. What did the school do to prevent bullying?A. It recorded students with a high-tech system.B. It invited speakers to discuss bullying.C. It punished unkind students in public.D. It reported bullying to the police.2. What did Mrs. Sanders expect parents to teach?A. Different forms of bullying.B. Useful ways of self-protection.C. How to use the reporting system.D. How to use kind and proper words.3. Why did Mrs. Sanders write the letter?A. To ask for parents' help in building a healthy school environment.B. To say sorry to parents for the unkindness in the school.C. To call for social support to fight bullying.D. To praise parents' family educationBReading can be a social activity. Think of the people who belong to book groups. They choose books to read and then meet to discuss them. Now, the website turns the page on the traditional idea of a book group.Members go on the site and register the books they own and would like to share. BookCrossing provides an identification number to stick inside the book. Then the person leaves it in a public place,hoping that the book will have an adventure, traveling far and wide with each new reader who finds it.Bruce Pederson, the managing director of BookCrossing, says, “The two things that change your life are the people you meet and books you read. BookCrossing combi nes both.”Members leave books on park benches and buses, in train stations and coffee shops. Whoever finds their book will go to the site and record where they found it.People who find a book can also leave a journal entry describing what they thought of it. E-mails are then sent to the BookCrossers to keep them updated about where their books have been found. Bruce Pederson says the idea is for people not to be selfish by keeping a book to gather dust on a shelf at home.BookCrossing is part of a trend among people who want to get back to the “real” and not the virtual(虚拟). The site now has more than one million members in more than one hundred thirty-five countries.4. Why does the author mention book groups in the first paragraph?A. To explain what they are.B. To introduce BookCrossing.C. To stress the importance of reading.D. To encourage readers to share their ideas.5. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. The book.B. An adventure.C. A public place.D. The identification number.6. What will a BookCrosser do with a book after reading it?A. Meet other readers to discuss it.B. Keep it safe in his bookcase.C. Pass it on to another reader.D. Mail it back to its owner.7. What is the best title for the text?A. Online Reading: A Virtual TourB. Electronic Books: A new TrendC. A Book Group Brings Tradition BackD. A Website Links People through BooksCI have been teaching a personal finance (财务) class at Sultan High School for about 12 years. And I really think it should be a required class. The feedback (反馈) of my students has been very positive. I often hear from them, “Of all the classes I took in high school, your class is the only one that I have used in the re al world.” While I know this is not true, it is easy to see the direct connection between personal finance and their lives.However, what's disappointing (令人失望的) to me is that I only have 60 students this year out of 500 in our high school. A lot of students have expressed their interest. But they tell me they have so many required classes that they have little room in their schedules (时间表). They have four years of English. They have three years each of math, science, and social studies. They have two years of arts, PE and world language. There just isn't much room.But still I say it is worth considering adding personal finance as a requirement. What we are teaching at school should be useful for our students' future. Time always changes, and money is playing a more important role in today's world. If our kids don't learn how to manage money, howcan they manage their future life well?Of course, personal finance is not among the most important subjects students have to spend years to learn, such as English and math. But I think my class has as much importance as some other required classes. PE teachers may ask you to spend more time in training “because it is good for your health”. Similarly, I would say knowing how to manage your money will help you achie ve a more successful life.Our kids have been required to take too many classes. There shouldn't be more school time. But it is quite possible to add a requirement while cutting the time of some other subjects.8. Why does the author tell us what his students said?A. To show the class is useful.B. To prove he works very hard.C. To discuss the life of today's students.D. To explain the influence of the feedback.9. What fact is the author unhappy about now?A. His school provides very few subjects.B. There is little room for students' progress.C. Most students have no time to take his class.D. Many students show no interest in their studies.10. Which of the following will the author probably agree with?A. Many required subjects should take longer time.B. PE is more important than English and math.C. Students should take fewer required lessons.D. Personal finance is as important as arts.11. Where can you find a way to make personal finance a required class?A. In Paragraph 2.B. In Paragraph 3.C. In Paragraph 4.D. In Paragraph 5.DIt can take days, weeks, even years for an artist to finish a painting or drawing. For one Oxford-based artist it takes just two hours. Described as “one of the most exciting artists of our time”, Ai-Da differs from past artists: she is a robot.Meet Ai-Da, the first realistic human-shaped robot in the world to be shown on an art exhibition (展览). Named after Ada Lovelace — who wrote the first-ever computer program — Ai-Da can use a robotic arm and a pencil or pen to draw what it sees. With a little human help, it can create sculptures (雕塑) when connected to a 3D printer.Ai-Da was created to look and act like a human. It has a face covered in silicone “skin”, 3D-printed teeth, and cameras in its eyes. A team of 15 programmers built Ai-Da's software, including instructions that allow the robot to copy the way a human artist might create art —by taking an image (影像) of a situation or object, and using that as a basis for a picture. This kind of system is called artificial intelligence (人工智能).Ai-Da was the idea of Aidan Meller, curator (负责人) of a new exhibition called Unsecured Futures, which opens at St John's College, Oxford on 12 June. “We're at the beginning of a new time of humanoid robots, and it will be great to see their influence on art,” he says. Mr Meller hopes thatAi-Da will also be able to communicate and possibly describe her own artwork. Mr Meller doesn't say how much the project has cost, only that the money has come from sales of the resulting artworks.One of Ai-Da's paintings, called Shattered Light, is a warning that the environment is easily damaged. Meller says this work is “as good as anything else we've seen” in the same artistic field. Some of Ai-Da's drawings show respect to scientists such as Ada Lovelace, and Alan Turing.12. What made Ai-Da draw people's attention most?A. Her speed of creating paintings.B. The tools she used to draw.C. The name she was given.D. Her human-like shape.13. What can we know about Ai-Da?A. She works without people's help.B. She is the first humanoid robot in the world.C. She is named after a computer programmer.D. She can create better paintings than humans.14. What does Aidan Meller think of humanoid robots?A. They will be produced soon in large numbers.B. They are more intelligent than humans.C. They will take over humans someday.D. They will help the progress of art.15. What does Ai-Da's Shattered Light want to share?A. The natural environment is weak.B. Robots are as creative as humans.C. Great scientists should be remembered.D. People should work hard in their own fields.答案阅读理解十九1—5 BDA BA 6—10 CD ACD 11—15 D ACDA。
