高一英语阅读理解试题(有答案和解析)含解析一、高中英语阅读理解1．阅读理解Last week, Vodafone started a test of the UK's first full 5G service, available for use by businesses in Salford. It is part of its plan to trial the technology in seven UK cities. But what can we expect from the next generation of mobile technology?One thing we will see in the preparation for the test is lots of tricks with the new tech. Earlier this year, operators paid almost £ 1.4 billion for the 5G wavelengths, and to compensate for that cash, they will need to catch the eye of consumers. In September, Vodafone used its bit of the range to display the UK's first hologram (全息) call. The Manchester City captain Steph Houghton appeared as a hologram in Newbury. It isn't all holograms, however: 5G will offer faster internet access, with Ofcom (英国通讯管理局) suggesting that video that takes a minute to download on 4G will be available in just a second.The wider application is to support connected equipment on the "internet of things" -not just the internet-enabled fridge that can reorder your milk for you, but the network that will enable driverless cars and delivery drones (无人机) to communicate with each other.Prof William Webb has warned that the technology could be a case of the emperor's new clothes. Much of the speed increase, he claims, could have been achieved by putting more money in the 4G network, rather than a new technology. Other different voices have suggested that a focus on rolling out wider rural broadband access and addressing current network coverage would be more beneficial to the UK as a whole.Obviously, 5G will also bring a cost to consumers. It requires a handset for both 5G and 4G, and the first 5G-enabled smart phones are expected in the coming year. With the slow pace of network rollout so far, it is likely that consumers will end up upgrading to a new 5 G phone well before 5 G becomes widely available in the next couple of years.（1）Why does Prof William Webb say "the technology could be a case of the emperor's new clothes"?A. He is in favor of the application of the new technology.B. 5G will bring a cost to consumers in their daily life.C. 5G helps people communicate better with each other.D. He prefers more money to be spent on 4G networks.（2）The underlined word "addressing" in the fourth paragraph has the closest meaning to________.A. making a speech toB. trying to solveC. managing to decreaseD. responding to （3）The last paragraph indicates that .A. it'll take several years .to make 5G accessible to the public in the UKB. 5G service shows huge development potential and a broad marketC. customers are eager to use 5G smart phones instead of 4G onesD. it's probable that 5G network rollout is speeding up in Britain（4）What do we know about the text?A. Vodafone is successful in spreading the 5G service.B. Steph Houghton appeared as a hologram by 4G.C. The application of 5G will make life much easier.D. 5G phones are available in rural areas of the UK.【答案】（1）D（2）B（3）A（4）C【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文。

一、高中英语阅读理解1．阅读理解It started during a yoga class. She felt a strange pull on her neck, a feeling completely foreign to her. Her friend suggested she rush to the emergency room. It turned out that she was having a heart attack.She didn't share similar symptoms with someone who was likely to have a heart attack. She exercised, watched her plate and did not smoke. But on reviewing her medical history, I found that her cholesterol (胆固醇) level was sky-high. She had been prescribed a cholesterol-lowering statin (他汀) medication, but she never picked up the prescription because of the scary things she had read about statins on the Internet. She was the victim of fake medical news.While misinformation has been the object of great attention in politics, medical misinformation might lead to an increase in deaths. As is true with fake news in general, medical lies tend to spread further than truths on the Internet—and they have very real bad consequences.False medical information can also lead to patients experiencing greater side effects through the "nocebo effect (反安慰剂效应) ". Sometimes patients benefit from an intervention (干预) simply because they believe they will—that's the placebo effect (安慰剂效应). The nocebo effect is the opposite. Patients can experience harmful effects because they anticipate them. This is very true of statins. In blinded trials, patients who get statins are no more likely to report feeling muscle aches than patients who get a placebo. Yet, in clinical practice, according to one study, almost a fifth of patients taking statins report side effects, leading many to discontinue the drugs. What else is on the fake news hit list? As always, vaccines (疫苗) . False concerns that the vaccine may cause side effects have greatly reduced coverage rates.Cancer is another big target for pushers of medical misinformation—many of whom refuse alternative therapies. "Though most people think cancer tumors are bad, they're actually the way your body attempts to contain the harmful cells," one fake news story reads. It warns that prescription medications lead to the uncontrolled cell mutations (变异) .Silicon Valley needs to face this problem. I am not a free-speech lawyer, but when human health is at risk, perhaps search engines, social media platforms and websites should be held responsible for promoting or hosting fake information. Meanwhile, journalists should do a better job of spreading accurate information.（1）We can learn from Paragraph 2 that ________.A. the woman paid little attention to her daily dietsB. the unhealthy lifestyle might lead to the woman's heart attackC. the symptom of the heart attack was familiar to the womanD. the woman didn't take the prescription due to fake medical news（2）According to the passage, the placebo effect functions because patients ________. A. neglect necessary treatment B. discontinue the harmful drugsC. believe the benefits of an interventionD. suffer more side effects（3）What does the author mean by claiming that "he is not a free-speech lawyer" in the lastparagraph?A. He is a lawyer very easy to speak to.B. He is good at speaking because of his job.C. He is available to give a speech on the law.D. He is very cautious when speaking something（4）The main purpose of the passage is to ________.A. remind us to take medication as prescribedB. warn us against fake medical news on the InternetC. encourage journalists to report more positive news eventsD. teach us how to distinguish fake medical news on the Internet【答案】（1）D（2）C（3）D（4）B【解析】【分析】本文是一篇议论文，通过举例来论证了网络谣言，尤其是关于药物的网络谣言有巨大的杀伤力。

高一英语阅读理解试题及答案(一)

阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）A“Some day, there’ll be no Americans left in the NBA,” said 12-year-old Xing Tao, who joined his school team two weeks ago after watching Yao Ming in a televised NBA game, “The players will all be Chinese, like Yao.”To China, Yao is a home-grown superstar who helped make the world’s first basketball league closer to Chinese players. To the NBA, the 2.23-meter center offers an opening of a different sort into the world’s largest new market. Yao’s NBA first appearance against the Ind iana Pacers in October reached 287 million families in the US. That game might have been a bit of a letdown to Yao’s fans: He played just 11 of the 48 minutes, had two rebounds(篮板) and got no points. Comparing that with his performance on December 19, also against Indiana, Yao won 29 points and 10 rebounds. “This was one of the most exciting games I’ve had,” Yao said after Houston’s 95-83 victory. The NBA has to be excited about his on-count success. In all his games, he’s averaging 12.7 points and 7.7 rebounds, quite good for a new star. “Yao Ming has brought the NBA closer to the Chinese,” said NBA spokeswoman Cheong Sau Ching, “That makes the dream seem practical for other people in China and proud to be Chinese.”The 22-year-old Yao is not the country’s first player in the NBA: Wang Zhizhi broke down the Dallas Mavericks in November 2003. But Yao’s combination of modesty（谦虚）and skills make him a favorite back home.26. What’s the direct reason for Xing Tao to join the school basketball team?A. He watched an NBA game.B. He liked basketball.C. He hoped to play for the NBA.D. He had dream that he would become a basketball star.27. How many points did Yao Ming win in his first game in the NBA?A. zeroB. twoC. 29D. 1028. What do es the word “letdown” in line 6, paragraph 2 mean?A. failureB. surpriseC. disappointmentD. sadness.29. Why does Yao Ming win more popularity than Wang Zhizhi at home?A. He has performed excellently.B. He is modestC. More and more Chinese people like to watch his games.D. both A and B30. What’s the main idea of this passage?A. Middle school students want to play basketball.B. Yao Ming makes NBA closer to China.C. There’ll be no Americans left in the NBA.D. There are many new stars from China in the NBA.Elizabeth Blackwell was born in England in 1821, and moved to New York City when she was ten years old. One day she decided that she wanted to become a doctor. That was nearly impossible for a woman in the middle of the nineteenth century. After writing many letters asking for admission(录取) to medical schools, she was finally accepted by a doctor in Philadelphia. She was so determined that she taught school and gave music lessons to get money for the cost of schooling.In 1849, after graduation from medical school. she decided to further her education in Paris. She wanted to be a surgeon(外科医师) , but a serious eye problem forced her to give up the idea.Upon returning to the United States, she found it difficult to start her own practice because she was a woman. By 1857 Elizabeth and her sister, also a doctor, along with another woman doctor, managed to open a new hospital, the first for women and children Besides being the first woman physician and founding her own hospital , she also set up the first medical school for women.31.

Eilzabeth Blackwell spent most of her life in _______.A. EnglandB. ParisC. the United StatesD. New York CityHave you ever wondered why birds sing? Maybe you thought that they were just happy. After all, you probably sing when you are happy.Some scientists believe that birds do sing some of the time just because they are happy. However, they sing most of the time for a very different reason. Their singing is actually a warning to other birds to stay out of their territory.Do you know what a “territory” is? A territory is an area that an animal, usually the male, claims (声称) as its own. Only he and his family are welcome there. No other families of the same species are welcome. Your house is your territory where only your family and friends are welcome. If a stranger should enter your territory and threaten you, you might shout. Probably this would be enough to frighten him away.If so, you have actually frightened the stranger away without having to fight him. A bird does the same thing. But he expects an outsider almost any time, especially at nesting (筑巢) season. So he is screaming all the time, whether he can see an outsider or not. This screaming is what we calla bird’s song, and it is usually enough to keep an outsider away.36.Some scientists believe that most of the time bird’s singing is actually ________.A．an expression of happiness B. a way of warningC. an expression of angerD. a way of greeting37.What is a bird’s “territory”？A. A place where families of other species are not accepted.B. A place where a bird may shout at the top of its voice.C.An area for which birds fight against each other.D.An area which a bird considers to be its own.38.Why do birds keep on singing at nesting season?A.Because they want to invite more friends.B.Because their singing helps frighten outsiders away.C.Because they want to find outsiders around.D.Because their singing helps get rid of their fears.39.How does the writer explain birds’ singing?A.By comparing birds with human beings.B. By reporting experiment results.C. By describing birds’ daily life.D. By telling a bird’s story.40.What does the underline word “screaming” in paragraph 4 me an?A. 哭喊声B. 令人惊愕的C. 尖叫声D. 尖叫的Americans like to visit the national parks. In 1996, over 250,000,000 people visited areas which are managed by the National Park Service. Experts say that by 2012, 500,000,000 people per year will visit the parks. As a result, people are trying to think of ways to protect the parks from the crowds.The crowding of the parks has caused several problems. One is that there is not enough space for all of the people who want to use the parks. To deal with this problem, you may have to book your tickets a few months ahead of time. The Park Service may also raise entrance fees (费) .Another problem caused by increased park use is pollution. Some garbage and waste can be cleaned up, and the cleanup can be paid for by increased entrance fees. To cut down on noise pollution and air pollution, the number of cars allowed in parks may be limited. If this happens, people may use buses to travel around the parks. Officials may also limit the use of jet-skis, snow-mobiles, motor-boats, and sightseeing helicopters and planes.The parks may also be in danger because of development that is going on around them. For example, around Yellow Stone Park, many hotels, golf courses, resorts, and other tourist attractions have been built. Some of these developments have effect on areas that are used by animals. People will have to learn to agree about ways to protect the parks. If they do not, there will soon be no reason to visit these national treasures.41. According to experts, by 2012 the number of visitors ______.A. may be doubledB. may rise to 50%C. will reach 250 millionD. will go up by a second42. Which of the following is true according to the text?A. Visitors will pay less than before.B. The parks are not big enough to hold all visitors.C. Visitors may not necessarily buy tickets ahead of time.D. Only buses are allowed to enter the parks.43. Entrance fees may be increased _______.A. because the National Park Service are short of moneyB. only for the development of the national parksC. to protect the animalsD. mainly to limit the number of visitors44. What is the most possible meaning of the underlined word “limited” in Paragraph 3?A. Enlarged.B. Admitted.C. Controlled.D. Concerned.45. What can be inferred from the passage?A. High fees may probably keep some people out of parks.B. Helicopters and planes will not be used in parks any longer.C. The bus will become the only tool in parks in order to cut down pollution.D. National Park Service will always welcome as many visitors as possible.阅读参考答案：26-30 AACDB 31-35CAABC 36-40 BDBAC 41-45 ABDCA。

高一英语阅读理解试题(有答案和解析)及解析一、高中英语阅读理解1．阅读理解Nothing good generally comes of a conversation that start with the words, "I think you should probably sit down before I tell you this.”And so it came to pass. Away for Christmas, we got a call from kind friends at home, our neighbour's house had caught fire while they were out. The fire didn't spread to our house but the smoke very much did.It's weeks of either throwing out, or sending away for specialist cleaning, every single thing into which smoke could have permeated(渗透)because the particles(微粒) are an ongoing health risk and washing isn't enough. Anything soft—sofas and carpets and children's teddy bears, clothes—is suspected. We will be seeing in the New Year in a decidedly minimalist fashion.What I didn't expect to feel, however, is this lucky. Friends and neighbours have come together with incredible generosity. We will never again underestimate the closeness of the village community in which we live, or the innate kindness that is most people's natural reaction to trouble, and are grateful to be reminded of so much that is good. But that's not the only thing I've learned. For in a sense, we have a chance to start again.The surprise on being forced to think about what might urgently need replacing is how short the list of essentials seems; how much we must have been hanging on to out of habit, and how much we have been conditioned to think was important.It's all too easily assumed that family history lives in tangible(有形的)things— old photographs, a dress bought decades ago for a night heavy with memories — but that's not quite right. These things were only reminders of what we already carry with us in head and heart.Walking through the house, sweeping up the broken glass, I realised that the answer to the old question of "What would you save in a fire? " is actually that nothing really matters but each other.（1）What happened to the author's house?A.It caught a fire.B.It was affected by a fire.C.It was broken into by friends.D.Its windows were broken.（2）What does the underlined word "suspected" in Paragraph 3 refer to?A.something that may be damaged.B.something that may not be genuine.C.something that may not be so good.D.something that may be dangerous.（3）What did the author expect to feel?A.People around him were cold to others' trouble.B.His friends and neighbours were so generous.C.People in his community were close to each other.D.He was so lucky to find much that was good.（4）How will the author probably feel when the New Year finally comes?A.Worried.B.Surprised.C.Excited.D.Contented.【答案】（1）B（2）A（3）A（4）D【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，作者家房子受到火灾影响，物品受损，一切都需要清理，但朋友们和邻居们提供的帮助，让作者感受到了他们的善良，对他们感恩。

This note helped us in preparing for their arrival. As they would be here for a number of days, his daughter wanted to make his trip to Ireland as smooth as possible.Upon seeing this note and knowing I would be the one to check them in, I decided to learn some very basic sign language. I greeted the guest in my usual fashion, asking for the surname on the booking. Once I heard the name，I immediately realized who was standing in front of me.I had been learning for two weeks how to say: "Welcome to Ireland. My sign language is terrible, but please, if you need anything during your stay, just let me know and we will help you."I smiled at the father and daughter in front of me. Turning to the father, I greeted him in ASL (American Sign Language) and began the bit I had learned for him. His daughter broke down crying and told me I was sweet. But the father just smiled and was so happy. Honestly, seeing his reaction was enough for me. It was absolutely worth the last few weeks of learning basic ASL.Sadly, I wasn't working the day they checked out, but they left a gift for me, a small box with some chocolates and a book on ASL. Inside was a note saying: "Thank you very much for what you did. My father has been in amazing spirits from the time you checked us in and insisted we get you a gift before we left. You have no idea how much this meant to my father and me, and we can't thank you enough.

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).

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.
