例如：2017年新课标全国卷I阅读理解D篇；2016年北京卷阅读理解；I. 阅读理解Passage1（2017·新课标全国卷Ⅰ）A build-it-yourself solar still（蒸馏器） is one of the best ways to obtain drinking water in areas where the liquid is not readily available. Developed by two doctors in the U.S. Department of Agriculture, it’s an excellent water collector. Unfortunately, you must carry the necessary equipment with you, since it’s all but impossible to find natural substitutes. The only components required, though, are a 5＇ 5＇ sheet of clear or slightly milky plastic, six feet of plastic tube, and a container — perhaps just a drinking cup — to catch the water. These pieces can be folded into a neat little pack and fastened on your belt.To construct a working still, use a sharp stick or rock to dig a hole four feet across and three feet deep. Try to make the hole in a damp area to increase the water catcher’s productivity. Place your cup in the deepest part of the hole. Then lay the tube in place so that one end rests all the way in the cup and the rest of the line runs up — and out — the side of the hole. Next, cover the hole with the plastic sheet, securing the edges of the plastic with dirt and weighting the sheet’s center down with a rock. The plastic should now form a cone(圆锥体) with 45-degree-angled sides. The low point of the sheet must be centered directly over, and no more than three inches above, the cup.The solar still works by creating a greenhouse under the plastic. Ground water evaporates (蒸发) and collects on the sheet until small drops of water form, run down the material and fall off into the cup. When the container is full, you can suck the refreshment out through the tube, and won’t have to break down the still every time you need a drink.32. What do we know about the solar still equipment from the first paragraph?A. It’s delicate.B. It’s expensive.C. It’s complex.D. It’s portable.33. What does the underlined phrase “the water catcher” in paragraph 2 re fer to?A. The tube.B. The still.C. The hole.D. The cup.34. What’s the last step of constructing a working solar still?A. Dig a hole of a certain size.B. Put the cup in place.C. Weight the sheet’s center down.D. Cover the hole with the plastic sheet.35. When a solar still works, drops of water come into the cup from .A. the plastic tubeB. outside the holeC. the open airD. beneath the sheet【话题解读】本文主要介绍了一种自己可以亲手制作的简单易行的太阳能蒸馏器的方法，并介绍了它的工作原理。

Unit 5 The power of natureⅠ.阅读理解(2016·合肥第一次质检)ABlue whales are the largest animals ever known to have existed on the planet,and they can grow to a length of 100 feet and weigh more than 330,000 pounds.But recently researchers have found that these whales are on the move and they have migrated from California waters to areas off Canada and Alaska for the first time since commercial whaling ended in 1965.The researchers identified 15 blue whales that have appeared off the coast of British Columbia and the Gulf of Alaska since 1997.Four of these whales were recognized as ones that were once sighted off California shores,suggesting that the whales are returning to an old migration pattern between the coasts.Before commercial whaling began in the early 1900s,blue whales were found widely throughout the North Pacific and California waters.But from the 1920s to the1960s,whaling severely reduced the whale populations.Blue whales never recovered in the North Pacific,making sightings in this area rare.However,much larger g roups of whales have been observed close to California since the 1970s.The s cientists had previously thought that the California population was separate from the population that had historically lived in the North Pacific waters.But the current study shows that whales off the coast of British Columbia and the Gulf of Alaska are likely part of the California population.To identify the blue whales,the researchers looked at photos of cetaceans takenin the North Pacific Ocean and compared them with a library of blue whale pictures taken along the west coast of the United States and Southern Pacific.Up to now,the researchers are not quite sure why the whales are changing their migrationpatterns,but they suspect that the whales may be following their food moving farther north by the changes in ocean conditions.1.According to the passage,blue whales are .A.following a fixed route of migrationB.dying out due to commercial whalingC.moving from the south to the northD.rarely found in the Southern Pacific2.The whale population in the North Pacific .A.is different from the California populationB.is probably part of the California populationC.has become the largest group since the 1970sD.has lived th ere since the 1960s3.The underlined word “cetaceans” in Paragraph 5 probably means .nd creaturesB.whale speciesC.ocean co nditionsD.migration patterns4.What might make blue whales migrate according to the researchers?mercial whaling.B.Weather conditions.C.Life reproduction.D.Food resources.B(2016·山西考前质检)Some fish seem to be capable of adapting rapidly to climate change.In fact,they might even boom in the warmer oceans of the future,growing bigger and healthier than they can at present-day temperatures.Evidence gathered over the past decades has suggested that climate change will force fish to migrate to cooler waters,or else face extinction.Signs of such migration have already been seen.But recent studies have shown that some fish are able to adapt to warmer waters over a few generations.Earlier this month,Philip Munday of James Cook University,and his colleagues showed that one key tropical fish species did this by turning on and off some of its genes.Yet there are questions over the potential cost of such an adaptation.Thefish’s ability to swim seems to be unchanged,but as Munday noted,“Maybe we’ll see trade-offs with growth rates.There are no free lunch in this world.”Donelson from Sydney raised several groups of maroon clownfish(小丑鱼),which live in coral reefs throughout the West Pacific.She kept one group at temperatures representing present-day conditions on the Great Barrier Reef,from where the parents of the fish were collected.In addition,she kept another group at 1.5℃ warmer and a third group at 3℃ warmer,representing the o cean temperature rise expected by the end of the century.After a year of growing,the fish adapted to the warmer temperatures,upping their aerobic metabolism(有氧代谢),which seemed to contribute to ot her benefits:those raised at temperatures 3℃ warmer grew 8 percent larger and 29 percent heavier than fish raised at lower temperatures.Donelson says that it is hard to make predictions about how different specieswill cope with climate change.“But at least it won’t be all negative news for all species,”she says.5.The main idea of the first paragraph is that .A.some fish can adjust to warmer watersB.some fish can grow bigger at present-day temperaturesC.some fish may die out in cooler watersD.big fish can survive the temperature change6.One specific kind of fish adjusts to the changed surroundings by .A.switching their genes on and offB.growing quicklyC.training their ability to swimD.living in a group7.From Donelson’s experiment,we know .A.the clownfish she raised are from the Great Barrier ReefB.she raised the fish in two different temperature conditionsC.after a year’s growing,the fish failed to adjust to warmer temperaturesD.the fish raised in the warmest water grow largest and heaviest8.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A.Different species will deal with climate change in the same way.B.Climate change has a positive effect on all the species.C.Fish is not the only species that can meet the challenge of climate change.D.Species which can a dapt to climate change would survive.Ⅱ.七选五阅读(2016·郑州第一次质检)Every scientific field uses the scientific method to conductexperiments.Performing experiments is very important in the field of psychology(心理学).Before beginning a study,however,any scientist who wishes to perform an experiment should be familiar with the steps of the scientific method. 1◆Form a hypothesis(假设).It is an educated guess about what will happen during the study. 2 Coming up with a hypothesis before you start can help guide your experiment.◆Plan out a study.Planning out the experiment is essential because the psychologist needs to know if they have time,materials,and testing areas prepared beforehand.This step also helps the scientists to determine if they will be performing descriptive or experimental research.The ideal situation is to always perform experimental research. 3 Descriptive research simply collects data regarding the problem and forms a hypothesis according to the data.◆Collect data. 4 If the data collected is not recorded and organized,the entire efforts of the study may be wasted.The best way to do this may be to record the proceedings so that no details are lost.◆Analyze the data.Once all the data has been collected and organized,it must be ing previous research or scie ntific information about the problem,the psychologist must apply the new data gathered.◆Publish the information learned.The final step of the scientific method in psychology is publishing the results of the study. 5 Most psychological experiments are published in scientific journals.A.It is based on scientific facts,not just opinions.B.Read on to find out how to use the scientific method in psychology.C.Before psychologists start the experiment,they must plan out the steps.D.This helps other psychologists to learn about and use the new information.E.The scientific method has proved to be an effective way to conduct research.F.To fully understand the study,each part of the experiment must be recorded.G.Sometimes,however,this is impossible and descriptive research will have to be used.
