二轮复习高考英语专题复习阅读理解一、高中英语阅读理解1．阅读理解Most of us have looked up at the stars that fill the night sky and wondered whether we're alone in the universe. Indeed, the question of whether there's life out there has been something humankind's been asking itself for countless years. But thanks to China's Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical Telescope (FAST), the answer to this question may come a lot sooner than we expected.The telescope has a huge round reflector, which measures 500 meters across and has a perimeter(周长)of 1.6 kilometers. Because of its great size, it would have been both difficult and inefficient to get FAST to move like a regular telescope. Instead, FAST's designers came up with a great solution: its surface is made up of 4450 panels which can be individually adjusted. This clever design feature allows scientists to detect radio signals from any angle with a great degree of accuracy. "Panels can change their positions through connected wires and parallel (关联的) robots. We can control their position with an accuracy of 1mm," Zheng Yuanpeng, chief engineer of the telescope's panel project, told Xinhua News Agency.FAST's engineers also had the task of finding a suitable location. As any interference would affect its ability to detect distant radio waves, it needed to be built in a remote area. Luckily, the perfect spot was found in the beautiful mountains of Guizhou Province. "There are three hills about 500 meters away from one another, creating a valley that is perfect to support the telescope," Sun Caihong, chief engineer of FAST's construction, told Xinhua.And although it wasn't yet fully operated, FAST had already made great discoveries by October 2017. Since 1967, only around 2000 pulsars (脉冲星) have been discovered, yet FAST had detected six more by October 2017. Once FAST is fully up and running, we may finally have the answer to one of the biggest questions in history.（1）What is the purpose of mentioning the question in Paragraph 1?A. To introduce the new giant telescope.B. To explain why there is life in universe.C. To remind readers to think about the life in space.D. To emphasize the question that should be answered.（2）What can we know from Paragraph 2?A. The telescope is made up of many panels.B. The area of FAST is about 800 square kilometers.C. The engineer can handle FAST's position accurately.D. The individual panel helps scientists catch radio signals.（3）Why was FAST built in Guizhou?A. Because Guizhou is a remote province.B. Because Guizhou has an ideal valley.C. Because Guizhou has beautiful mountains.D. Because Guizhou has the ability to build it.（4）What does the last paragraph mainly talk about?A. FAST's timeline.B. FAST's future.C. FAST's operation.D. FAST's discoveries.【答案】（1）A（2）D（3）B（4）D【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了中国500米口径球面射电望远镜，它的设计原理、选址以及发展前景等多方面的信息。

2016高考英语二轮：语篇阅读高分练(4)及答案语篇阅读高分练(四)(建议用时：30分钟)Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2015·甘肃省部分普通高中高三2月联考)Energy independence.It has a nice ring to it.Doesn’t it? If you think so，you’re not alone，because energy independence has been the dream of American president for decades，and never more so than in the past few years，when the most recent oil price shock has been partly responsible for kicking off the great recession.“Energy independence”and its rhetorical(修辞的) companion “energy security”are，however，slippery concepts that are rarely through，though.What is it that we want independence from，exactly?Most people would probably say that they want to be independent from imported oil.But there are reasons that we buy all that oil from elsewhere.The first reason is that we need it to keep our economy running.Yes，there is a trickle(涓涓细流)of biofuel(生物燃料)available，and more may become available，but most biofuels cause economic waste and environmental destruction.Second，Americans have basically decided that they don’t really want to produce all their own oil.They value the environmental quality they preserve over their oil imports from abroad.Vast areas of the United States are off-limits to oil exploration and production in the name of environmental protection.To what extent are Americans really willing to endure the environmental impacts of domestic energy production in order to cut back imports?Third，there are benefits to trade.It allows for economic efficiency，and when we buy things from places that have lower production costs than we do，we benefit.And although you don’t read about this much，the United States is also a large exporter of oil products，selling about 2 million barrels of petroleum products per day to about 90 countries.There is no question that the United States imports a great deal of energy and，in fact，relies on that steady flow to maintain its economy.When that flow is interrupted，we feel the pain in short supplies and higher prices，at the same time，we derive massive economic benefits when we buy the most affordable energy on the world market and when we engage in energy trade around the world. 1．What does the author think of biofuels?A．They keep America’s economy running healthily.B．They prove to be a good alternative to petroleum.C．They do not provide a sustainable energy supply.D．They cause serious damage to the environment.2．Why does America rely heavily on oil imports?A．It wants to expand its storage of crude oil.B．Its own oil reserves are quickly running out.C．It wants to keep its own environment intact.D．Its own oil production falls short of demand.3．What does the author say about oil trade?A．It proves profitable to both sides.B．It improves economic efficiency.C．It makes for economic prosperity.D．It saves the cost of oil exploration.BWhat does it take to be a good neighbour？Over the years I have had all kinds of neighbours，ones that were enjoyable and others that were to be avoided at all costs.One of the most important things in being a good neighbour is to respect the personal privacy(隐私)．When someone new moves into the neighbourhood，you’d better wait and see when and how to go to pay a visit.If you go rushing over as soon as they move in，they may think you are going to be one of those neighbours that come over at all times of the day，not respecting their privacy.It is a good idea always to be friendly to everyone in the neighbourhood.This can not only make you get along well with them，but will also be a form of protection for your family and home.If you wave as they drive by or offer a friendly hello while they are out in their yard，it shows that you likethem and try to be friendly.If you are cordial(热诚的) to them，they are much more likely to watch out for any wrong doings going on around your home while you are out and let you know if anything happens.Another way of being a good neighbour is to be helpful in times of need.If you see that they are in need of a helping hand doing something or in times of difficulty，it is good to offer your help.Even though you haven’t talked a lot to the people down the street，they are willing to take the time to help you because you have ever helped them when they were in need.In conclusion，if you respect their personal privacy，treat them cordially and be helpful when you see they are in need，you will be a great neighbour and anyone would be happy to have you next door!4．What should we do when a new neighbour moves in?A．Go to offer some advice.B．Go to say hello immediately.C．Wave politely through the window.D．Wait and see when and how to pay a visit.5．If we are always friendly to neighbours，we can ________.A．have our own privacyB．know more about their lifeC．make close friends with themD．keep our family members safe6．What’s the main idea of Paragraph 4?A．A friend in need is a friend indeed.B．Everybody sometimes gets into trouble.C．The neighbours should help each other.D．People needn’t talk a lot to their neighbours.7．As a good neighbour，a person should always be ________.A．brave，honest and kindB．helpful，strong and strictC．honest，active and friendlyD．respectful，friendly and helpfulⅡ.完形填空(2015·河北衡水中学高三一模)Face Adversity(逆境) with a SmileI told my friend Graham that I often cycle the two miles from my house to the town centre but unfortunately there is a big hill on the

高考英语二轮复习阅读训练及答案
高考英语二轮复习阅读训练及答案高考英语二轮复习阅读训练1：What should you think about when trying to find your career? You are probably better at some school subjects than others. These may show strengths that you can use in your work. A boy who is good at mathematics can use that in an engineering career. A girl who spells well and likes English may be good at office work. So it is important to know the subjects you do well in at school. On the other hand, you may not have any specially strong subjects but your records show a general satisfactory standard. Although not all subjects can be used directly in a job, they may have indirect value. A knowledge of history is not required for most jobs but if history is one of your good subjects you will have learned to remember facts and details. This is an ability that can be useful in many jobs.Your school may have taught you skills, such as typing or technical drawing, which you can use in your work. You may be good at metalwork or cookery and look for a job where you can improve these skills. If you have had a part-time job on Saturdays or in the summer, think what you gained from it. If nothing else, you may have learned how to get to work on time, to follow instructions and to get on with older workers. You may have learned to give correct change in a shop, for example. Just as important, you may become interested in a particular industry or career you see from the inside in a part-time job.Facing your weak points is also part of knowing yourself. You may be all thumbs when you handle tools; perhaps you are a poor speller or cannot add up a column of figures. It is better to face any weakness than to pretend they do not exist. Your school record, for instance, may not be too good, yet it is an important part of your background. You should not be apologetic about it but instead recognize that you will have a chance of a fresh start at work.46. We can infer from the first paragraph that ________.learning better at school shows power in your jobthe better you are at school subjects, the more helpful they are in your career.learning each subject well is an ability in many jobs.we should think about how to find our career47. From the passage we learn that if a students school performance is not good, he will _____.A. have no hope in his future workB. be hopeful to find a suitable jobC. regret not having worked harder at schoolD. have an opportunity of a new beginning in his future work48. All the subjects may have direct value for job hunting except _________.A. mathematicsB. EnglishC. historyD. technical drawing49. The underlined phrase “be all thumbs” (in Paragraph 3) probably means “_________”.A. heavy- handedB. the bestC. importantD. skilled50. The passage mainly discusses ___________.A. The relationship between school performance and careerB. how to get a jobC. How to show strengths in your workD. working experience and knowledge at school二轮复习阅读训练答案：46- 50 BDCAA高考英语二轮复习阅读训练2：In modern society there is a great deal of argument about competition. Some value it highly, believing that it is responsible for social progress and prosperity, others say that competition is bad; that it sets one person against another; that it leads to unfriendly relationship between people.I have taught many children who held the belief that their self –worth relied (依赖) on how well they performed at tennis and other skills. For them, playing well and winning are often life – and – death affairs. In their single – minded pursuit (追求) of success, the development of many other human qualities is sadly forgotten.However, while some seem to be lost in the desire to succeed, others take an opposite attitude. In a culture which values only the winner andpays no attention to the ordinary players, they strongly blame competition. Among the most vocal are youngsters who have suffered under competitive pressures from their parents or society. Teaching these young people, I often observe in them a desire to fail. They seem to se ek failure by not trying to win or achieve success. By not trying, they always have an excuse: “I may have lost, but it doesnt matter because I really didnt try.” What is not usually admitted by themselves is the belief that if they had really tried and lost, that would mean a lot. Such a loss would be a measure of their worth. Clearly, this belief is the same as that of the true competitors who try to prove themselves. Both are based on the mistaken belief that ones self – respect relies on how well one performs in comparison with others. Both are afraid of not being valued. Only as this basic and often troublesome fear begins to dissolve (缓解) can we discovera new meaning in competition.41.What does this passage mainly talk about?petition helps to set up self – respect.B.Opinions about competition are different among people.petition is harmful to personal quality development.D.Failures are necessary experiences in competition42.Why do some people favor competition according to the passage?A.It pushes society forward.B.It builds up a sense of duty.C.It improves personal abilities.D.It encourages individual efforts.43.The underlined phrase “the most vocal” in Paragraph 3 means .A.those who try their best to winB.those who value competition most highlyC.those who are against competition most stronglyD.those who rely on others most for success44.What is the similar belief of the true competitors and those witha desire to fail ?A.Ones worth lies in his performance compared with others.B.Ones success in competition needs great efforts.C.Ones achievement is determined by his particular skills.D.Ones success is based on how hard he has tried.45.Which point of view may the author agree to?A.Every effort should be paid back.petition should be encouraged.C.Winning should be a life – and – death matter.D.Fear of failure should be removed in competition.二轮复习阅读训练答案：41.B 42.A 43.C 44.A 45.D。

2021高考英语二轮总练习阅读理解精选〔10〕及解析AI'm fat, I'm too skinny．I'd be happy if I were taller, shorter, had curly hair, straight hair, a smaller nose, bigger muscles, longer legs．Do any of these statements sound familiar Are you used to putting yourself down If so, you' re not alone．As a teen, you're going through many changes in your body．And as your body changes, so does your image of yourself．Lots of people have trouble adjusting, and this can affect their self-esteem 〔自尊〕．If you have a positive body image, you probably like and accept yourself the way you are．This healthy attitude allows you to explore other aspects of growing up, such as developing good friendships, growing more independent from your parents, and challenging yourself physically and mentally．Developing these parts of yourself can help boost 〔提升〕yourself-esteem．A positive attitude and a healthy lifestyle 〔such as exercising and eating right〕are a great combination for building good self-esteem．Some people think they need to change how they look oract to feel good about themselves．But actually all you need to do is change the way you see your body and how you think about yourself．The first thing to do is recognize that your body is your own, no matter what shape, size or color it comes in．If you are very worried about your weight or size, check with your doctor to verify 〔核实〕that things are OK．But it is no one's business but your own what your body is like—ultimately, you have to be happy with yourself．Next, identify which aspects of your appearance you can realistically change and which you can't．Everyone has things about themselves that they can't change and need to accept—like their height, for example, or their shoe size．When you hear negative comments coming from within yourself, tell yourself to stop．Try building your self-esteem by giving yourself three good things every day．By focusing on the good things you do and the positive aspects of your life, you can change how you feel about yourself．The most important thing is to get help if you feel like your body image and self-esteem are affecting your life．56．If we have a positive body image, we will_____．A．concentrate on our body image onlyB．not develop strong self-esteemC．like and accept ourselves as we areD．be less independent of our parents57．______ can NOT help to boost your self-esteem．A．Growing independent from your parentsB．Accepting your own body as it actually isC．Having a positive attitude and a healthy lifestyleD．Improving your body image as much as you can 58．To improve our body image, we have to _____．A．think about ourselvesB．be happy with ourselvesC．change the shape, size or color of one's bodyD．check with our doctor to verify that our body is OK 59．Which is probably the best title of the passage A．Importance of Body ImageB．Effects on a Person's Self-esteemC．Tips for Improving Body ImageD．Self-esteem and Body ImageB60．Where can we most probably read this textA．In a newspaper．B．In a magazine．C．In traveling guide．D．In a history textbook．61．The business hours of Cook's Cottage on Saturday in the summer are _____A．11:00 am—2:00 pm B．5:00 pm—10:30 pmC．9:00 am—5:30 pm D．9:00 am—5:00 pm．62．The Anchorage Restaurant is ____．A．in Williamstown B．in the center of the cityC．in Anchorage D．in Port Philip Bay63．Where can you spend the night in a tourA．Cook's Cottage．B．Sovereign Hill．C．Sydney Tower．D．Westfield Counterpoint．CIn an age dominated 〔控制旳〕by new media and the Internet, there are so many alternative ways of learning．Gone are the days when, if we couldn't make it into a classroom, the only real option was to pick up a book, or when audiomaterials consisted of bad quality cassettes or sporadic〔时有时无旳〕radio and TV programmes．With the appearance of broadband access to the web, we have a whole new learning domain 〔统领〕at our fingertips．Sophisticated learning materials in the form of text or high-quality audio are now available at the touch of a button, and tests and assignments can be submitted 〔进展〕and marked online．Questions and learning, studying away from the classroom has never seemed easier．Yet many teachers would argue that face-to-face contact between teachers and students is an essential part of the language learning experience．Enter the concept of blended 〔融合旳〕learning, an approach to education which seeks to combine the best of new technology and actual human contact．Advocates of blended learning argue that an approach to study which combines the benefits of new technology with the best aspects of face-to-face 〔often abbreviated to F2F〕teaching, will achieve better results．For example, there are some aspects of study, like practical sessions, dealing with more subjective questions, or meeting the needs of an individual student, which require face-to-face human interaction, whereas the more mechanical aspects of learning,such as answers to clear-cut questions, can be managed simply and effectively in a remote environment using new technology．Blended learning approaches have proven especially appropriate in language learning．For example, in an ELT 〔English Language Teaching 〕environment, a simple scenario 〔剧情概要〕might be a classroom session where a teacher asks a group of students to use a wiki to create a text．Students then go away and compose and edit the text remotely．During the next F2F session, the teacher express his opinion about their work．64．What is the main idea of this passageA．Blended learning is an effective learning approach．B．More and more people will use Internet-based learning materials,C．There are so many different ways of learning for people to choose in today's world．D．Blended learning methods have proven to be effective except in language learning．65．Which of the following aspects of study doesn't require face-to-face interaction between teachers and students A．Practical sessions．B．Tackling the needs of an individual student．C．Dealing with more subjective questions．D．Providing answers to clear-cut questions．66．It can be inferred from the passage that ______．A．the radio and TV in the past were of poor qualityB．people do not get audio materials through cassettes nowadaysC．it was not convenient for people to leam outside a classroom in the pastD．it was difficult to find a classroom with good learning conditions in the old days67．Which of the following can be best describe the writer's attitude towards blended learningA．Critical．B．Objective 〔客观旳〕．C．Supportive．D．Neutral 〔中立旳〕．DBotany 〔植物学〕, the study of plants, occupies a particular position in the history of human knowledge．For many thousands of years it was the one field of awareness about which humans had anything more than the vaguest 〔模糊旳〕〕of insights．It is impossible to know today justwhat our Stone Age ancestors knew about plants, but from what we can observe of pre-industrial societies that still exist, a detailed learning of plants and their properties must be extremely ancient．This is logical．Plants are the basis of the food pyramid for all living things even for other plants．They have always been enormously important to the welfare of people not only for food but also for clothing, tools, medicines, shelter, and a great many other purposes．Tribes living today in the jungle of the Amazon recognize hundreds of plants and know many properties of each．To them, botany has no name and is probably not even recognized as a special branch of "knowledge" at all．Unfortunately, the more industrialized we become, the farther away we move from direct contact with plants, and the less distinct our knowledge grows．Yet everyone comes unconsciously on an amazing amount of botanical knowledge, and few people will fail to recognize a rose or an apple．When nor Neolithic ancestors, living in the Middle East about 10,000 years ago, discovered that certain grasses could be harvested and their seeds planted for richer fields the next season—the first, great step in a new association of plants and humans was taken．Grains were discovered and fromthem flowed the wonder of agriculture: cultivated crops．From then on, humans would increasingly take their living from the controlled production of a few plants, rather than getting a little here and a little there from many varieties that grew wild, and the accumulated knowledge of tens of thousands of years of experience with plants in the wild would begin to fade away．68．What does the writer mean when he says "This is logical"in the first paragraphA．Human knowledge of plants is well organized and very detailed．B．It is not surprising that early humans had a detailed knowledge of plants．C．There is no clear way to determine the extent of our ancestor's knowledge of plant．D．It is reasonable to assume our ancestors behave much like people in pre-industrial societies．69．According to the passage, general knowledge of botany begun to fade away because ____．A．people no longer value plants as a useful resourceB．direct contact with a variety of plants has decreased C．botany is not recognized as a special branch of scienceD．research is unable to keep up with the increasing number of plants70．We learn that the first great step toward the practice of agriculture is____．A．the changing diets of early humansB．the development of a system of names for plantsC．the invention of agricultural implements 〔工具〕and machineryD．the discovery of certain grasses that could be harvested and replanted71．Human would depend on the controlled production of a few plants for living withA．the knowledge of plants B．the discovery of certain grassesC．the development of machinery D．the appearance of agricultureEIt has been argued that an infant under three who is cared for outside the home may suffer because of the separation from his parents．The British psychoanalyst John Bowlby believes that separation from the parents during the sensitive "attachment" period from birth to three may scar〔留下疤痕〕a child's personality and incline to emotional problems in later life．Some people have drawn the conclusion from Bowlby's work that children should not be sent to day care before the age of three, and many people do believe this．But there are also arguments against such a strong conclusion．Firstly, anthropologists 〔人类学家〕point out that the hidden love between children and parents found in modem societies does not usually exist in traditional societies．For example, we saw earlier that among the Ngonis the father and mother of a child did not raise their infant alone．But traditional societies are so different from modern societies that comparisons based on just one factor are hard to understand．Secondly, common sense tells us that day care would not be so widespread today if parents and caretakers found that children had problems with it．But Bowlby's analysis raises the possibility that early day care has delayed effects．The possibility that such care might lead to more mental illness or crime 15 or 20 years later can only be noticed by the use of statistics．Statistical studies of this kind have not yet been carried out, and even if they were, the results would becertain to be complicated and controversial．Thirdly, in the last decade, there have been a number of careful American studies of children in day care, and they have reported that day care had a neutral of slightly positive effect on children's development．But tests that have had to be used to measure this development are not widely enough accepted to settle the issue．72．This passage is mainly talking about________．A．children's personalityB．advantages of infants' early careC．infants' educationD．negative effect of infant school73．The phrase "day care in the first paragraph probably means_____.A．nursing school B．baby-sitter C．boarding school D．primary school74．According to Bowlby, children under the age of three______．A．should not be sent to schoolB．should be cared for outside the homeC．will not suffer fro m parental separationD．don't mind who will look after them75．The argument against Bowlby's conclusion shows that___．A．children have problems with day careB．there is no negative effect on infants who go to school before threeC．there is a long-term effect on infants who go to school before threeD．children who are sent to school before three are sent to mental illness参考答案56-60 CBBDC 61-65 CABAD 66-70 CDBBD 71-75 DCAAB********************************************************完毕。

语篇阅读高分练(十)(建议用时：30分钟)Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2015·河南商丘市高三一模)2014 saw that the Ebola virus reappeared in Guinea and soon spread into neighbouring Liberia and Sierra Leone，killing over 7,800 people by the new year of 2015.It leads to viral hemorrhagic fever，which is characterized by high fever and internal bleeding etc.Ebola is named after the Ebola River，where it was first discovered in 1976.There are five different types of the Ebola virus，each named after where they first happened：Sudan，Ivory Coast，Reston，Bundibugyo，and Zaire.The deadliest of the five，Zaire，was responsible for the 2012 outbreak，and is believed to be attacking Guinea.Ebola is naturally found in fruit bats，which pass on the virus to other animals by biting or sucking on their blood.Humans who are suffering from the Ebola infection might have touched the bodily fluids of the infected animals.Once infected，a human becomes a carrier of the deadly virus.Unfortunately，there are no diseasespecific treatments for Ebola.Healthcare workers only supply the infected people with physiological saline(生理盐水) to keep them in good condition.Ebola can kill 90% of those infected，especially in underdeveloped societies like those in Africa.Since there have been many cases of nurses catching the disease from patients，they are forced to wear strict protective clothes，and in some cases，not even allowed to get close to the infected.The fact that there is no cure for the Ebola virus is what makes the outbreak a challenging one to control.What’s worse，since we live in an interconnected world，where the situation in one country can affect us all，the influences of Ebola are huge：damaging trade relations，affecting foreign visitors，and weakening entire countries.It is fearedthat the disease may spread throughout west African countries.For every country，a strong health system can decrease the risk of health attack and lessen the impact of Ebola.1．What is the function of the first paragraph in the whole passage?A．To arouse the reader’s concern.B．To summarize the whole passage.C．To give a detailed description of Ebola.D．To introduce the theme of the whole passage.2．What can we infer about the Ebola virus?A．It has caused a panic in many countries.B．It is the most dangerous virus in the world.C．A strong health system is important to fight against Ebola.D．Anyone who was infected Ebola will die.3．Paragraph 3 mainly tells us ________.A．what the Ebola virus isB．how the Ebola virus spreadsC．how the Ebola virus is treatedD．how the Ebola virus affects the life4．Which of the following is TRUE?A．There are no effective drugs to treat Ebola by far.B．Ebola is now very common in Guinea.C．Those with a fever must be infected by Ebola.D．Females are easier to be infected by Ebola.B(2015·沈阳市郊联体高三二模)Just 25 years ago，the top three career hopes for young people in Britain were teacher，banker and doctor.Now，they want to be sports star，pop star and actor，according to a survey by the Guardian newspaper.Rachel，a character in the popular TV show Glee，may be said to speak for British teenager s.“Nowadays being nobody is worse than being poor.” She said.Emma Brockes，a reporter with the Guardian，believes it is “the bad influence of celebrity(名人) culture” that is to blame.“When children wanted to be doctor，it wasn’t because they were really more interested in the functions of human organs than they are now；you go where the respect is.” She wrote.It could explain why there has been such an increase in levels of anxiety and depression.Dr.Carlo Strenger，of Tel Aviv University，studied the sense of self for his new book The Fear of Insignificance：Searching for Meaning in the21st Century.He told the Daily Mail that young people now are “affected by the close connection to the global entertainment network，which has turned ranking and rating people according to wealth and celebrity into an obsession(痴迷)．”“As humans，we naturally measure ourselves to those around us，but now we live in a global village.We are comparing ourselves with the most ‘important’ people in the world and finding ourselves wanting，” h e said.Today，even high achievers constantly fear that they are insignificant when they compare themselves to success stories in the media.The way out？Simply stop measuring your achievement through a fantasy of wealth and celebrity.Dr.Strenger said that it is a process called “active selfacceptance through a constant search for selfknowledge through life.”“The fear of insignificance can only be overcome through strong individual and cultural identity over and above measurable achievement，” he said. 5．According to Emma Brockes，what causes the increasing level of anxiety?
