高中英语真题:2014高考英语一轮完形填空和阅读理解基本训练（4）附答案When someone says, “Well, I guess I’ll have to go to face the music,” it does not mean he is planning to go to a concert. It is something far less pleasant, like being called in by your boss to explain why you did this or that, and why you did not do this or that. Sour music, indeed, but it has to be faced.The phrase “to face the music” is familiar to every America n, young and old. It is at least 100 years old.The first information comes from the American writer Jame s Fenimore Cooper. He said—in 1851—that the expression was first used by actors while waiting in the wings to go on stage. After they got their cue(提示，暗示) to go on, they often said, “It’s time to go to face the music.”And that is exactly what they did—face the orchestra which was just below the stage.An actor might be frightened or nervous as he moved on t o the stage in front of the audience that might be friendly or per haps unfriendly, especially if he forgot his lines. But he had to g o out. So, “to face the music” came to mean having to go throug h something, no matter how unpleasant the experience might be, because you knew you had no choice.The other explanation comes from the army. Men had to f ace inspection by their leader. The soldiers worried about how well they looked. Was their equipment clean—shiny enough to pass inspection? Still, the men had to go out, a nd face the music of the band, as well as the inspection. What e lse could they do?64. According to the passage, the word “music” means_____ .A. your boss’s criticism（批评） B. your leader’s inspectionC. something unpleasant to be experiencedD. sour pop music65. The phrase “to face the music” was first used by______.A. some American actorsB. the American writer James Feni more CooperC. all the AmericansD. the American orchestra66. An actor might feel frightened or nervous when going on sta ge. One of thereasons is that______.A. his performance might not satisfy most of the audienceB. he might not remember what he should say on stageC. he had to face the unfriendly audienceD. most of the audience might be his friendsCancer is among the top killer diseases in our society toda y and scientists have found out that stress(紧张) helps to bring it on. We need to consider, therefore, what ar e the causes of stress in our life, and whether we can do anythi ng about them.Are we under-employed, or overburdened(负担过重) with too many responsibilities? Do we have a right balance of work and leisure(闲散) in our lives? Are our relationships with family, friends or fello w workers all that they should be?All these things can be a cause of stress, and it is best to f ace them directly, and to bring our frustrations(失意) into the open. People who have a good row and then forget it are doing their health more good than those who bottle up the ir feelings.If our self-examination has brought any causes of stress to light, let us co nsider what we can do about them. It is possible to change jobs. We can make more leisure and fill it more happily, if we will ac cept a different living standard. We can improve our personal re lationships by a different attitude. It is we who allow other peopl e to make ourselves unhappy. Often the little things that disturb us are not worth an hour’s anger. The teaching in the Bible “Let not the sun go down upon your wrath(愤怒)” is good advice from the health point of view as well as religi on.67. Which of the following statements is true?A. Freedom from responsibilities helps reduce stress.B. Stress is the direct cause of caner.C. The causes of stress are worth serious study.D.Cancer is the number one killer is our society today.68. Judging from the context, the underlined word “row” in the t hird paragraphmost probably means______.A. a noisy quarrelB. a very loud noiseC. a neat line of things side by sideD. a journey in a boat69. Which of the following is not mentioned as a way to reduce our stress?A. Changing our jobs.B. Changing our attitude about little things that make us unhappy.C. Speaking out about our frustrations.D. Reading the Bible.70. “Let not the sun go down upon your wrath” probably means “______”.A. Don’t let your anger last long.B. Don’t get angry while the sun is going down.C. Don’t get angry easily about little things.D. Don’t watch the sun set while you are angry.(2011·江西卷)What a busy day!

Unlike Europe, in the United States labeling is not required on genetically engineered foods or on foods that contain genetically engineered products．Most Americans do not realize that they are, in fact, eating GE foods．The public is also concerned about the unknown health risks．With limited understanding of genes, scientists cannot predict possible effects．Because most genes introduced into GE plants come from sources not introduced into the human body, it is impossible to know if they will cause reactions．Moreover, due to the lack of labeling if allergies develop, it will be extremely difficult to find the origin of them．There is also a major moral question in many minds．For many, the conflict is not if it is safe or not, but it disturbs them because it is unnatural and unnecessary．We are currently producing one and a half times the amount of food needed to feed the world, yet one in seven people are starving．GE food is unnecessary, and fails to address the root of hunger. Many believe that the only people who will benefit are the corporations that produce it．Scientists cannot foresee it. He possible effects of GE foods, yet we eat them every day without even knowing it. We already have enough food, so why create more that could be potentially harmful to us, to the Earth and to all wildlife? I think that the benefits are amazing, but until we know for sure how these foods will affectus, they are not worth the risk．67．According to the passage, traditional breeding is different from genetic engineering in that ．A．Traditional breeding changes the genes in the same speciesB．Traditional breeding changes the genes in different speciesC．Traditional breeding takes place within the same speciesD．Traditional breeding is more scientific68．"The lack of labeling" in Paragraph 4 indicates ．A．Information concerning gene sources is unavailable to customersB．it is currently possible to find the origins of some allergiesC．Scientists try to hide potential dangers from customersD．The US government is responsible for GE food69．According to Paragraph 5, GE food is unnecessary because ．A．It won't help solve the problem of hunger in the worldB．There are potential dangers in producing GE foodC．We’re now producing more food than beforeD．Customers will benefit from GE food70．What is the author's attitude towards genetic engineering?A. Welcoming.B. Disapproving.C. Unconcerned.D. Optimistic.七选五：“Tear them apart!” “Kill the fool!” “Murder the referee（裁判）！”These are common remarks one may hear at various sporting events. At the time they are made, they may seem innocent enough. 71 They have been known to influence behavior in such a way as to lead to violence. Volumes have been written about the way words affect us. It has been shown that words having certain connotations（含义）may cause us to react in ways quite foreign to what we consider to be our usual humanistic behavior. I see the term “opponent” as one of those words.72The dictionary meaning of “opponent ” is “enemy” or “one who opposes your interests.” Thus, when a player meets an opponent, he or she may tend to tre at that opponent as an enemy. At such times, winning may control one’s brains. 73 I recall an incident in a handball game when a referee refused a player’s request for a time out for a glove change because he did not consider them wet enough. The player started to rub his gloves across his wet T-shirt and then shouted. “Are they wet enough now?”In the heat of battle, players have been observed to throw themselves across the court without considering the consequences that such a move might have on anyone in their way. I have also witnessed a player hitting his opponent with the ball as hard as he could during the course of play. Off the court, they are good friends. 74 It certainly gives proof of a court attitude which differs from normal behavior.Therefore, I believe it is time we elevated (提升) the game to a higher level. Replacing the term “opponent” with “associate” could be an ideal way to start.The dictionary meaning of the term “associate” is “colleague”; “friend”;“companion.”75 You may soon see and possibly feel the difference in your reaction to the term “associate” rather than “opponent.”A. Reflect a moment!B. Does that make any sense?C. But let’s not kid ourselves.D. Such rude comments express one’s strong desire to win.E. Perhaps the time has come to delete it from sports terms.F. Players sometimes turn to violence hoping to injured opponents.G. And every action, no matter how rude, may be considered acceptable.。
