(英语)高一英语阅读理解专项训练100(附答案)一、高中英语阅读理解1.阅读理解From the loss of wildlife to rising sea levels, we're all well aware of the problems that climate change could cause.But while it may seem like such issues won't affect most of us directly,it looks like future generations could grow up without something that many of us now take for granted: chocolate. According to an essay published by the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, changes to the climate in the regions that produce cacao - the plant from which chocolate is produced - may mean that it will soon become extinct.Most of the world's cacao grows in countries close to the equator,with over half of it growing in the African nations of Ghana and Ivory Coast.It's predicted that by 2050, climate change will have accelerated the rate at which temperatures in these countries rise, making it extremely difficult for cacao to grow there.The problem doesn't lie in increased heat, however,but in lower humidity (湿度),as it's believed that rainfall will stay at the same level if the temperature rises.“In other words, as higher temperatures squeeze more water out of soil and plants, it's unlikely that rainfall will increase enough to offset the moisture (含水量) loss,” Michon Scott, the essay's author, wrote.To help fight this problem, researchers from Berkeley University in the US are working on changing the DNA of cacao plants to allow them to survive in dryer conditions by using gene editing technology, according to US News.In the meantime, US company Mars, one of the world's biggest manufacturers of chocolate products, announced in January that it would spend $1 billion to help reduce the effects of climate change.“This is a world issue, and it requires everyone to work together,” Mars spokesperson Barry Parkin told Business Insider.The message here is that if we all do our part, we may be able to prevent some of the worst impacts of climate change. Or if we're unlucky, chocolate will become a thing of the past.(1)What could make it hard for cacao to survive around the equator in the future?A. The increased heat there.B. The higher humidity there.C. The decrease in rainfall there.D. The moisture loss in the soil there.(2)What does the underlined word “offset” in the seventh paragraph mean?A. hold backB. make up forC. protectD. accept(3)What will US company Mars do to help cacao survive?A. It will work hard to plant cacao in greenhouses.B. It will apply gene editing technology in planting cacao.C. It will give financial support to help fight climate change.D. It will develop cacao that can survive in dryer conditions.(4)What may be the best title of this text?A. Chocolate could become historyB. Work together to fight climate changeC. How do we grow cacao in the future?D. How do cacao plants affect climate change?【答案】(1)D(2)B(3)C(4)A【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文,未来由于气候的变化,用于制造巧克力的可可树可能会灭绝,所以巧克力有可能会成为历史。
高一年级英语阅读理解专项训练(含答案)(7篇)一、完型填空1.This year my husband and I decided to have a quiet, low-key New Year's Eve. We wanted to spend it with our kids and other immediate family and make it a special 1 for them, instead of 2 a babysitter and going out on our own. The logical way to do this was through 3 . As we all know, food had a magical way of making; a night 4 , and our New Year's Eve certainly 5 that way, thanks to doughnuts(甜甜圈).I decided to make doughnuts because my cousins had 6 a batch(一批) on Halloween and I found it very 7 . I used a recipe from the 1976 Mennonite cookbook More With Less and it 8 a curious ingredient---two cups of mashed potatoes that 9 made the texture lighter. The doughnuts were 10 and cut from a sheet of dough(生面团), then left to rise until ready to fry in hot oil. Then they took several seconds to 11 , which meant that my enormous batch of 100 doughnuts was 12 cooking in a fairly short time. We glazed(浇上浆液) the tops and then 13 them for the rest of the evening. The leftovers disappeared at breakfast.This will become an annual 14 , I have no doubt. Whether we host a bigger party or keep it small, there will always be 15 doughnuts, because when you have hot homemade doughnuts, you can't help but have the best time.1.A.challenge B.idea C.opportunity D.occasion 2.A.training B.hiring C.knowing D.interviewing 3.A.time B.money C.food D.fun4.A.short B.memorable C.messy D.silent 5.A.tested out B.moved on C.tuned out D.picked out 6.A.put B.bought C.brought D.made 7.A.impressive B.expensive C.healthy D.nutritious 8.A.took up B.carried on C.called for D.cut off 9.A.fortunately B.possibly C.totally D.absolutely 10.A.rolled out B.taken apart C.sorted out D.cut down 11.A.steam B.cook C.sink D.float 12.A.finished B.practiced C.considered D.demanded 13.A.prepared B.waited C.enjoyed D.longed 14.A.celebration B.idea C.ceremony D.tradition 15.A.fresh B.raw C.common D.local【答案】1.D2.B3.C4.B5.C6.D7.A8.C9.B10.A11.B12.A13.C14.D15.A2.Dear girls,The dream itself comes from hard work, some good luck and good timing.

My grandmother, my mother and I were having lunch at a restaurant. I 1 a Salisbury steak. But when served, it was 2 accompanied by a plate of peas.I have always hated peas. It is a complete 3 to me why anyone would voluntarily eat peas. “Eat your peas,” my grandmother said.“Mother,” said my mother in her 4 voice. “He doesn’t like peas. Leave him alone.”My grandmother looked at me and said the words that changed my life: “I’ll pay you five dollars 5 you eat those peas”. Five dollars! And only one plate of peas stood between 6 and the possession of that unimaginable amount of money. I began to 7 the awful things down my throat and finally swallowed the 8 one of them. My grandmother handed me the 9 . “I can do what I want, Ellen, and you can’t stop me,” she 10 to my mother. My mother glared at her and also glared at me 11 .Several days later, at dinner, my mother offered me some steaming peas and I, of course, 12 . My mother fixed me with a cold eye as she 13 more peas onto my plate. “You ate them for money,” she said, “You can eat them for love.”Oh, despair! Now, too late, I realized that I had been 14 in a terrible place from which there was no 15 . “You ate them for money. You can eat them for love.” Did I eat the peas? You bet I did.

Even those small acts of kind ness can make a difference in someone’ day. That was just the case for Amie Mickey when she 1 a bumper sticker (车尾贴) on her car reading: You Matter.Amie started to do this several years ago. At first, she wondered if people would 2 it. However, much to her surprise, she began seeing a flood of 3 every time she hit the road. More often than not, people 4 slowly near her car would roll down their windows, raising their 5 , waving and smiling. Sometimes, she even found some sticky notes left on her windshield saying things like “You 6 too!” Once while she was driving down the highway, she became 7 when a man driving a sports car at a high speed pulled his car alongside suddenly, waving and mouthing, “You matter!” Though it took her some time to recover from the 8 , she still felt happy. Last year, someone 9 her car while she was waiting for her friend in the car by the roadside, saying to her, “It is a(an) 10 sticker. I’ve seen various stickers before, bu t none of them have touched me as your sticker has done.” The two small words on the sticker seem simple enough, but they really struck a chord with many complete strangers who 11 to catch sight of the sticker.Stories like Amie’s really 12 the rest of us. Sometimes a kind word or gesture may lift our 13 and it doesn’t cost a thing except for a little extra thought. Maybe it means offering a friend a hug, praising the children when their children 14 well in school, helping someone out or volunteering at nursing homes. Acts of kindness are waiting everywhere. Small as they seem, they can make a 15 impact on the world, and help form general goodness.1.A.put up B.picked up C.fixed up D.tore up 2.A.watch B.overlook C.notice D.ignore 3.A.strangers B.passers-by C.attention D.confusion 4.A.running B.driving C.walking D.riding 5.A.voices B.thumbs C.shoulders D.hats6.A.count B.share C.matter D.value 7.A.frightened B.discouraged C.embarrassed D.disappointed 8.A.parking B.speed C.event D.incident 9.A.blocked B.approached C.repaired D.cleaned 10.A.special B.important C.typical D.skeptical 11.A.occurred B.happened C.managed D.offered12.A.shock B.delight C.inspire D.satisfy 13.A.spirits B.thoughts C.feelings D.minds 14.A.work B.exercise C.conduct D.behave 15.A.reliable B.subjective C.positive D.brief【答案】1.A2.C3.C4.B5.B6.C7.A8.D9.B10.A11.B12.C13.A14.D15.C5.One day, a professor entered the classroom and asked his students to prepare for a surprise test. They waited worriedly at their desks for the test to begin. The professor 1 the question papers, with the paper facing down as usual. After he gave them all out, he asked his students to 2 the paper and begin. To everyone's surprise, there were no 3 , just a black dot in the center of the page. The professor, seeing the 4 on everyone's face, told them the following:"I want you to write what you 5 there."The students got started on the inexplicable (费解的) task.At the end of the class, the professor 6 all the answer papers and started reading each one of them aloud in front of all the students.

高中英语阅读理解专项训练100附答案一、高考英语阅读理解专项训练1.阅读理解I visited Elba last June, joining Mary and John on a bicycling vacation. They made the arrangements for the car, hotel and bicycles. I studied the history of the island, which of course particularly features Napoleon.Napoleon (now I know) picked Elba as a place for peace when he was forced to give up the throne (王权) as Emperor of France in 1814. Far from being a prison island, Elba is beautiful with towering mountains, thick forests and sweeping bays and beaches.It is also an island filled with treasure. Very early on this island, locals discovered rich deposits of iron. Soon outsiders, too, discovered the iron and 150 other valuable minerals on this little piece of land. Long before Etruscans and other Greeks set foot on it, Dorians had moved in by the tenth century B. C. and were mining the island. The Romans ruled next, obtaining the minerals and building grand houses overlooking the sea. From the twelfth century until the nineteenth, the island was traded back and forth and was passed to France in 1802. Then came Napoleon, the new ruler of Elba.I was eager to visit his house in Portoferraio. The Emperor lived with his court and his mother, but his wife, Marie Louise had ensconced herself in the splendid Viennese palace of her father, Emperor of Austria. She lived safely there and showed little interest in visiting her husband in his mini-kingdom. Apparently, Napoleon wasn't troubled much by this. He was too busy riding everywhere on horseback, building roads, modernizing agriculture and, above all, sharpening his tiny army and navy into readiness for his escape.In the formal gardens behind the house it seemed to me that I could imagine the exiled (流放的) conqueror's anxious thoughts. He might gaze over where I stood now, toward the lighthouse of the Stella fort, the sandy bay, and across it, the green mountains of the Tuscan coast. Napoleon spent only ten months here before making his victorious return to France and the throne.(1)What did the author do for the visit to Elba?A. He did research on its past.B. He arranged transportation.C. He planned bicycling routes.D. He booked accommodation.(2)Who might be the earliest outsiders to Elba according to the text?A. Napoleon and his army.B. Etruscans and other Greeks.C. Dorians.D. Romans.(3)What does the underlined word "ensconced" probably mean?A.Settled.B.Locked.C.Cured.D.Controlled.(4)What came to the author's mind during his visit to Napoleon's gardens?A.Beautiful views on Elba.B.Terrible living conditions on Elba.C.Napoleon's ambition to regain power.D.Hardship of Napoleon's return to France.【答案】(1)A(2)C(3)A(4)C【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文,作者讲述了对拿破仑曾经流放地Elba岛的参观之旅,作者介绍了Elba岛的历史背景与拿破仑在岛上的生活事迹。
【英语】高一英语阅读理解专项训练100(附答案)含解析一、高中英语阅读理解1.阅读理解Sometimes we start a day with the previous day still in mind. We think about the mistakes we made in the previous day, how things went wrong, and how we felt bad about it. No wonder it becomes difficult to focus on the current day.Here are some steps on how to start your new day fresh:⒈Take time to evaluate your dayAt the end of a day, take some time to think about it. The purpose of this thinking time is not to regret how bad your day was, how things went wrong, or how people treated you badly. This won't do you any good. Instead, the purpose of this thinking time is to extract(吸取)lessons which you can bring to the following day.⒉Make a commitment to apply the lessonsAfter you extract the lessons, you should make a commitment to apply them.

高考英语阅读理解专项训练100(附答案)及解析一、高中英语阅读理解1.阅读理解If conditions get bad enough, almost any kind of weather can become a storm.Stormy weather can cause people to cancel their plans. It can cause major events to be postponed. And severe stormy weather can be dangerous to people, fortune and anima1.If you weather the storm, or ride out the storm, you survive and move on without harm or injury. For example, 1et's talk about Tornado Alley, the name for part of the central United States. During springtime, this area often has a large number of powerful tornadoes. People who live there are taught to shelter in the safest place they can find and wait for the storm to pass. People who live in Tornado Alley are used to weathering many storms!You can also weath er a storm, but it doesn't involve actual weather. “To weather the storm” can also mean to make it through a difficult experience or trying times. So, if the stock market(股市)crashes, you might have to weather a financial storm.Often before a big storm, conditions are calm. The calm before the storm can happen anytime. It is the time before something bad happens. For example, at the beginning of a family reunion, the adults were all talking happily. But the older children knew it was just the calm before the storm. They've seen it happen before. The adults talk happily for about an hour. Then they start arguing about events from the past—things that should really stay buried!But after the storm begins and you find yourself in the middle of it, you are in the eye of the storm. In the world of weather, the eye of the storm is the calmest part, in the center of a hurricane, for example. However, in the English language, if you are in the eye of the storm, you are in the most intense part of a conflict. For example, she had no idea that walking into the meeting would put her in the eye of the storm.However, a brainstorm does not exist in the world of weather. To brainstorm means to try to solve a problem by talking with other people. And don't worry. If we have trouble thinking of an idea for the next program, we can always brainstorm with you!(1)What's mainly discussed in the 3rd and 4th paragraphs?A. What the meanings of weathering the storm are.B. How we can weather the storm.C. Weathering a storm doesn't involve actual weather.D. People in Tornado Alley can survive the storm.(2)Why does the author mention a family reunion in the fifth paragraph?A. To stress the importance of weather forecast.B. To develop the awareness of family.C. To explain the meaning of an expression.D. To praise the older children for being clever.(3)What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. A problem can't be solved if you worry too much.B. A brainstorm often appears in the world of weather.C. Difficulties can be dealt with by teamwork.D. To brainstorm can cause troubles in the program.(4)What's the author's purpose in writing the text?A. To tell us stormy weather can cause destruction.B. To tell us some expressions about storm.C. To tell us a storm can cause conflicts.D. To tell us we should be ready for a storm.【答案】(1)A(2)C(3)C(4)B【解析】【分析】这是一篇说明文。
新高中英语阅读理解专项训练100及答案一、高考英语阅读理解专项训练1.阅读理解If you love eating and drinking for free and are looking to make some pocket money, there's a job in China with your name on it. A new type of online service allows people to hire others to eat or drink their favorite treats, either to cure their boredom or satisfy their appetite without the calories that usually come with it.Chinese media recently reported on an increasingly popular service on online platform Taobao that's as startling as it is appealing. People can now go online and hire others to consume certain foods and drinks, and ask them to provide video evidence of them eating or drinking the said treats.Fees usually range from two to nine yuan ($0.30 - $1.35) plus the cost of the food. It's not exactly a get-rich-quick job, but there are quite a rot of people willing to do it for the free treats alone."Bubble tea drinking" is a particularly popular service, as the chewy tapioca(木薯粉)balls and popping drink is all the rage in Asia these days, but there are also ads from people willing to eat fried chicken or hot pot for anyone willing to pay for them.Advertised as being "fat-free" and "free of queues" those who pay for the service will receive the full experience, which includes a 360-degree video of the drink, photos, and a detailed description. Prices of the service are based on the drink's sweetness level, its price, and popularity. Some clients even require a short written review to be sure that the person they hired actually does what they are supposed to.Sellers explained that most customers buy their "Bubble tea drinking" service maybe because they're trying to shake off desires while they're on a diet. Drinking bubble tea by proxy may help customers avoid high blood pressure, high blood sugar, and other health problems that the sugar-laden drink may cause.So why would anyone pay a total stranger to enjoy a treat rather than consume it themselves? Well, apparently, the online service is so cheap that some people simply do it out of boredom, while others get satisfaction from watching others indulge in their favorite treats.This indulging-by-proxy service(代享受服务)has received a lot of attention on social media in China, with some people describing it as the job of their dreams.(1)What kind of people may buy the new type of online service?A. Those who are boring.B. Those who are trying to lose weight.C. Those who love eating and drinking for free.D. Those who are looking to make some pocket money.(2)Which is the reason for many people being willing to be hired for the new job?A. That they can make a fortune.B. That the foods and drinks are cheap.C. That they can consume the treats for free.D. That they can realize their dreams.(3)Why does the author mention "bubble tea drinking" in Paragraph 4?A. To prove that the new type of service online is popular.B. To list an example of the new type of service onlineC. To show bubble tea is greatly welcome in Asia.D. To promote the new type of service online.(4)What is the main idea of the passage?A. Indulging-by-proxy service online helps lose weight.B. Boredom leads to indulging-by-proxy service online.C. People hold different opinions on indulging-by-proxy service online.D. Indulging-by-proxy service online is getting increasingly popular.【答案】(1)B(2)C(3)B(4)D【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了一种代享受服务在中国的社交媒体上引起了很多关注,网上代享受服务越来越受欢迎。

(英语)高一英语阅读理解专项训练100(附答案)一、高中英语阅读理解1.阅读理解To fight for the conservation of forest ecosystem, several ecologists including Daniel Janzen convinced Del Oro, an orange juice producer, to donate part of their forestland to a national park. In return, Del Oro was allowed to throw large amounts of waste in the form of orange peels (皮) on a 3-hectare piece of land within the national park at no cost. Dealing with tons of leftover peels usually involved burning them or paying to have them poured into a landfill, so the proposal was very attractive.But a year later, another juice company challenged the deal in court, arguing that their competitor was “polluting a national park”. They ended up winning, and the deal between Del Oro and the national park fell through.Then in 2013, while discussing possible research avenues with Timothy Treuer, Daniel Janzen mentioned the orange story. Feeling interested, Treuer decided to stop by that piece of land that had been covered with fruit waste 15 years earlier. What he found shocked him.“While I would walk over exposed rock and dead grass in the nearby fields, I'd have to climb through undergrowth and cut paths through walls of vines (藤) in the orange peel site itself.” said Timothy Treuer.Treuer and his team spent months picking up samples (样品), analyzing and comparing them. They found great differences between the areas covered with orange peels and those that were not. The area with orange waste had richer soil.The effect that the orange peels had on the land is probably not that surprising to people familiar with composting (施肥), but what is really shocking is that a judge actually thought the waste of orange “mined” a national park and stopped it from going forward. Now that Timothy Treuer's study has received worldwide a ttention, this type of “ruining” is being seriously considered as a way of bringing forests back to life.(1)What did Del Oro usually do with orange peels?A. Add them to fuel.B. Throw them into a national park.C. Bum or bury them.D. Make them into cakes.(2)What can we know about the deal between Del Oro and the national park?A. It lasted 15 years.B. It was signed by Treuer.C. It was made in about 1998.D. It was broken by Del Oro.(3)What was Treuer's finding?A. Orange peels contain much fibre.B. Orange peels can make soil richer.C. Orange peels rot away in a short time.D. Orange waste ruined the national park.(4)What is the author's attitude toward the judge mentioned in the last paragraph? A. Disapproving. B. Positive. C. Worried. D. Admirable.【答案】(1)C(2)C(3)B(4)A【解析】【分析】这是一篇说明文,文章主要讲述了橘子皮对土壤的积极作用。
(1)细节理解题。
根据文章第一段最后一句话Dealing with tons of leftover peels usually involved burning them or paying to have them poured into a landfill, 可知,之前处理橘子皮一般要烧掉或花钱请人掩埋掉。
故答案为C。

根据第三段Then in 2013, while discussing possible research avenues with Timothy Treuer, Daniel Janzen mentioned the orange story.

故答案为C。
(3)细节理解题。
根据文章第五段They found great differences between the areas covered with orange peels and those that were not. The area with orange waste had richer soil.可知,他们发现被倾倒过橘子皮的地土壤更丰富。
故答案为B。

2.阅读理解The past ages of man have all been carefully labeled by anthropologists (人类学家). Descriptions like "Palaeolithic (旧石器时代的) Man". "Neolithic (新石器时代的) Man",etc. neatly sum up whole periods. When the time comes for anthropologists to turn their attention to the twentieth century, they will surely choose the label "Legless Man". Histories of the time will go something like this: "in the twentieth century, people forgot how to use their legs. Men and women moved about in cars, buses and trains from a very early age. There were lifts in all large buildings to prevent people from walking. And the surprising thing is that they didn't use their legs even when they went on holiday."The future history books might also record that we were deprived (剥夺) of the use of our eyes. In our hurry to get from one place to another, we failed to see anything on the way. Air travel gives you a bird's-eye view of the world. When you travel by car or train, an unclear picture of the countryside constantly smears the windows. Car drivers, especially, are mixed with the urge to goon and on: they never want to stop. The typical twentieth-century traveler is the man who always says "I've been there." You mention the remotest, and someone is bound to say "I've been there"-meaning, "I drove through it at100 miles an hour on the way to somewhere else."When you travel at high speeds, the present means nothing: you live mainly in the future because you spend most of your time looking forward to arriving at some other place. But actual arrival, when it is achieved, is meaningless. You want to move on again. By traveling like this, you suspend all experience. The traveler on foot, on the other hand, lives constantly in the present. For him traveling and arriving are one and the same thing: he arrives somewhere with every step he makes. He experiences the present moment with his eyes, his ears and the whole of his body. At the end of his journey he feels a delicious physical tiredness. He knows that sound, satisfying sleep will be his: the just reward of all true travelers.(1)Anthropologists label man nowadays "Legless Man" because _____.A. people prefer cars, buses and trainsB. people use their legs less and lessC. lifts prevent people from walkingD. people travel without using legs(2)According to the passage, what might make people lose the right of using their eyes?A. the modern means of transportation.B. A bird's-eye view of the world.C. The unclear sight from the vehicles.D. The fast-paced life style.(3)From the passage, we know traveling at high speeds means _______.A. appreciating beautiful sceneryB. experiencing life skillsC. focusing on the next destinationD. feeling physical tiredness(4)What does the author intend to tell us?A. Modern transportation devices have replaced legs.B. Traveling makes the world a small place.C. Human's history develops very fast.D. The best way to travel is on foot.【答案】(1)B(2)D(3)C(4)D【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文,由于种种现代化交通设施,人们不需用脚走路,甚至也不需要用眼看风景,出门就坐汽车、公交车、地铁、飞机……汽车、飞机速度飞快,外边的景物难以看清,最终导致人们忘记用脚、用眼,成为“无脚之人”,一切都经历不到。
