高中阅读理解专项训练附答案解析1．篇Language as a System of Symbols(符号)Of all systems of symbols, language is the most highly developed. It has been pointed out that human beings, by agreement, can make anything stand for anything. Human beings have agreed, in the course of centuries of mutual dependency, to let the various noises that they can produce with their lungs, throats, tongues, teeth, and lips systematically stand for certain happenings in their nervous systems. We call that system of agreements language.There is no necessary connection between the symbol and that which it stands for. Just as social positions can be symbolized by feathers worn on the head, by gold on the watch chain, or by a thousand other things according to the culture we live in, so the fact of being hungry can be symbolized by a thousand different noises according to the culture we live in.However obvious these facts may appear at first glance, they are actually not so obvious as they seem except when we take special pains to think about the subject. Symbols and the things they stand for are independent of each other, yet we all have a way of feeling as if, and sometimes acting as if, there were necessary connections. For example, there are people who feel that foreign languages are unreasonable by nature; foreigners have such funny names for things, and why can’t they call things by their right names? This feeling exhibits itself most strongly in those English and American tourists who seem to believe that they can make the natives of any country understand English if they shout loud enough. Like the little boy who is reported to have said, “Pigs are called pigs because they are such dirty animals, ” they feel that the symbol is inherently connected in some way with the things symbolized.1．Language is a highly developed system of symbols because human beings _______. A．have made use of language for centuriesB．use our nervous systems to support languageC．have made various noises stand for any eventsD．can make anything stand for anything by agreement2．What can we conclude from Paragraph 2?A．Different noises may mean different things.B．Our culture determines what a symbol stands for.C．The language we use symbolizes our social positions.D．Our social positions determine the way we are dressed.3．In Paragraph 3 the underlined phrase “take special pains” probably means “_______”. A．try very hard B．take our timeC．are very unhappy D．feel especially painful4．In Paragraph 3, the example of the little boy is used to show that _______.A．adults often learn from their youngB．“pig” is a dirty word because pigs are dirtyC．words are not connected with the things they stand forD．people sometimes have wrong ideas about how language works【答案】1．D2．B3．A4．D【分析】这是一篇说明文。

（英语）高考英语阅读理解专项训练及答案及解析一、高中英语阅读理解1．阅读下列短文，从短文后每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A new technology is going to ripe, one that could transform our daily lives, help to form new industries, even remove world economic powers from their present positions. Unlike the wave of industrialization that began in the West and spread later to the rest of the world, the new developments are taking place in research labs all over the globe—and Asians are in the forefront. Physicists are creating a new class of materials that display an amazing property unforeseen even two years ago—superconductivity (超导体技术).Used today only in specialized equipment, super conductors have the potential to radically change most of the electrical and electronic appliances found in the home, making them smaller, more powerful and efficient. They could free our cities of pollution by replacing petrol and diesel (柴油) vehicles with electric cars, and cut the cost of electricity. The new materials do something that even the best of conductors such as copper and silver cannot—they do away with all electrical resistance. The significances for energy storage are great.The technology is in its early stage, still accessible to countries that decide to invest brains and money. For 75 years it had remained little more than a scientific curiosity with limited practical use because the phenomenon occurred only at extremely low temperatures. It was first observed in 1911 by a Dutch scientist named Heike Kamerlingh Onnes, who cooled mercury (水银) to temperatures below -269℃ with liquid helium (氦). Then in January last year, two IBM scientists, K. Alex Muller and J. George Bednorz, found a metal oxide ceramic (氧化陶瓷) that superconducted at -243℃. Their report went largely unnoticed until last December, when it was confirmed at a scientific meeting in Boston. Today Japan, India, China and other Asian countries all have their share of experts who spend their days and nights in labs, acting as midwives (助产士) to a new technology.（1）As is indicated in the passage, the technology of superconductivity ____________. A. has already been developed B. is still under developmentC. will be used only in specialized equipmentD. will be used in daily lives in a few years（2）The new technology differs from the others in that ____________.A. it began in the East and spread later to the rest of the worldB. it began in the West and spread later to the rest of the worldC. it is being cultivated in research labs around the worldD. it is accessible to physicists who are intelligent and rich（3）From the passage, we may conclude that ____________.A. Asian scientists gain the lead in the growth of the new technologyB. Dutch scientists kept reporting new findings for the last 75 yearsC. IBM scientists' report receive immediate attention all over the worldD. the West was astonished at the new technology developed by the Asians（4）Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. The Prospect of a New TechnologyB. Superconductivity: A New TechnologyC. A New Technology: The Key to Change the Way of Our LivesD. A New Technology: A Joint Effort of Many Countries【答案】（1）B（2）C（3）A（4）B【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了超导体技术的发展潜能和发展状况。

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 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!

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. All of them, with no 7 , described the black dot, trying to explain its 8 in the middle of the sheet, etc. After all had been 9 , the classroom was silent, and the professor began to 10 :"I' m not going to grade this 11 wanted to give you something to think about.

【英语】高一英语阅读理解专项训练100(附答案)
【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Money is the root of all evil (邪恶) and new study claims there may be some truth behind the saying. Scientists at the University of California Berkeley, US, announced on February 27 that rich people are more likely to do immoral things, such as lie or cheat, than poorer people. The scientists did a series of eight experiments. They published their findings online in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNA《美国国家科学院院刊》).They carried out the first two experiments from the sidewalk near Berkeley. They noted that drivers of newer and more expensive cars were more likely to cut off other cars and pedestrians at crosswalks. Nearly 45 percent of people driving expensive ears ignored a pedestrian compared with only 30 percent of people driving mow modest cars.In another experiment, a group of college students was asked if they would do immoral things in various everyday situations. Examples included taking printer paper from work and not telling a salesperson when he or she gave back more change. Students from higher — class families were more likely to act dishonestly.According to the scientists, rich people often think money can get them out of trouble. This makes them less afraid to take risks. It also means they care less about other people's feelings. Finally, it just makes them greedier. “Higher wealth status seems to make you want even more, and that increased want leads you to bend the rules or break the rules to serve your self- interest,” said Paul Piff, lead scientist of the study.Piff pointed out that the findings don't mean that all rich people are untrustworthy or all poor people honest. He said the experiments were to show how people living in different social situations express their instincts（本能）and values in different ways.（1）By saying “money is the root of all evil”, the author wants to .A. link wealth with bad behaviorB. draw readers' attention to the researchC. show how the saying proves the findingsD. defend rich people who do immoral things （2）According to the scientists, which is NOT the factor that makes rich people immoral?A. They welcome risks.B. They have more desires.C. They believe money talks.D. They become more selfish.（3）Why did the scientists do the experiments?A. To show how social status affects people's morality.B. To show people's instincts and values in different ways.C. To test whether the saying “money is the root of all evil” is true.D. To show the difference between higher - class people and lower - class people.（4）What does the passage really want to show us?A. The poor are respectable.B. Money is the root of all evil.C.

高中英语阅读理解专题训练1【The spider】In one way of thinking, failure is a part of life. In another way, failure may be a way towards success. The ―spider story‖ is often told. Robert Bruce, leader of the Scots in the 13th century, was hiding in a cave from the English. He watched a spider spinning a web(蜘蛛织网). The spider tried to reach across a rough place in the rock. He tried six times without success. On the seventh time he made it and went on to spin his web. Bruce is said to have taken heart and to have gone on to defeat the English… Edison, the inventor of the light bulb, made hundreds of models that failed before he found the right way to make one.So what? First, always think about your failure. What caused it? Were conditions right? Were you in top from yourself? What can you change so things will go right next time?Second, is the goal(目标)you're trying to reach the right one? Try to do some thinking about what your real goals may be. Think about his question, “If I do succeed in this, where will it get me?”This may help you prevent failure in things you shouldn't be doing anyway.The third thing to bear in mind about failure is that it's a part of life. Learn to ―live with yourself‖ even though you may have failed. Remember, ―You can't win them all.‖1.This passage deals with two sides of failure. In paragraph 1,the author talks mainly about ______ .A.the value of failurB.how people would failC.famous failuresD.the cause of failure2.The underlined phrase“made it”means ______ .A.succeededB.failedC.gaveD.got3.The lesson the spider taught Robert Bruce seems ______ .A.productiveB.straight forwardC.sorrowfulD.deep4.The author tells you to do all things except ______ .A.The think about the cause of your failureB.to check out whether your goals are right for youC.to consider failure as a part or lifeD.to bear in mind that you will never fail in your life5.Which of the following is NOT true?A.Bruce and Edison were successful examples.B.Failure may be regarded as a way toward success.C.Edison learned a lot from the lesson the spider taught Robert Bruce.D.One may often raise a question whether his goals are worth attempting.答案：AADDC。

All of them, with no 7 , described the black dot, trying to explain its 8 in the middle of the sheet, etc. After all had been 9 , the classroom was silent, and the professor began to 10 :"I' m not going to grade this 11 wanted to give you something to think about.

The search for food is the 1 human behavior. Thus, 2 food were easier to get and prepare, it would be really 3 for humankind. It would reduce a great burden(负担).

Apart from its advantages, the 5 of cooking also has its disadvantages.Though processed foods seem a great way to save 6 , they offer much less nutritional(营养的)value than traditional foods.

But what will 9 if one eats such food all year round? It will damage your 10 . The nutritional value of the food is not so high. Worse still, research shows that preservatives(防腐剂)used in these foods are 11 to children. That’s why health experts warn people not to eat too much of such 12 food.Besides, since people spend little time 13 food, the culture of cooking is slowly 14 . Cooking is not done just to satisfy hunger; it is also a(n) 15 form of art. Across the world, there are thousands of 16 cooking styles. If young people are used to processed foods, few of them will develop great cooking 17 . And when they become parents, it will be hard for their children to enjoy a(n) 18 homecooked meal. What’s more, cooking is a great time for 19 to connect. There is a lot of 20 when family members are preparing food together.In a word, I believe though processed food has made the preparation of food much easier, it has not been a good step for humankind.1．A．special B．basic C．right D．valuable 2．A．though B．before C．if D．unless 3．A．dangerous B．helpful C．troublesome D．surprising 4．A．So B．And C．But D．Or 5．A．easiness B．safety C．method D．difficulty 6．A．energy B．food C．money D．time7．A．rich B．strange C．smart D．busy 8．A．choose B．dislike C．refuse D．stop 9．A．change B．happen C．get D．offer 10．A．future B．memory C．brain D．health 11．A．harmful B．useless C．meaningful D．necessary 12．A．cold B．sweet C．unhealthy D．hot 13．A．heating B．finding C．preparing D．storing 14．A．varying B．dying C．appearing D．developing 15．A．important B．famous C．simple D．new 16．A．regular B．ordinary C．different D．similar 17．A．knowledge B．lessons C．interests D．skills 18．A．delicious B．clean C．expensive D．cheap 19．A．patients B．friends C．families D．cooks 20．A．success B．work C．progress D．fun【答案】1．B2．C3．B4．C5．A6．D7．D8．A9．B10．D11．A12．C13．C14．B15．A16．C17．D18．A19．C20．D6．In our discussion with people on how education can help them succeed in life, a woman remembered the first meeting of an introductory 1 course about 20 years ago.The professor 2 the lecture hall, placed upon his desk a large jar filled with dried beans(豆), and invited the students to 3 how many beans the jar contained. After 4 shouts of wildly wrong guesses the professor smiled a thin, dry smile, announced the 5 answer, and went on saying, “You have just 6 an important lesson about science. That is: Never 7 your own senses.”Twenty years later，the 8 could guess what the professor had in mind. He 9 himself, perhaps, as inviting his students to start an exciting 10 into an unknown world invisible to the 11 ， which can be discovered only through scientific 12 . But the seventeen－year－old girl could not accept or even 13 the invitation. She was just 14 to understand the world.And she 15 that her first－hand experience could be the 16 . The professor, however, said that it was 17 .

高中英语里阅读理解专题是个难点,由于很多学生的词汇量和阅读能力有限，无法理解文章的内容。

每日一题：高中英语阅读理解专题训练 The Guidance Department (教导处) at Burrville High School has a staff (职员) of
eleven. Most of their work is done with the students. But the staff sees a lot
of parents, too.“Parent meetings form a clear monthly pattern,” says Mildred Foreman,
Guidance Director. “This pattern stays much the same from year to year. The busy
months are October, March and May.”September starts rather slowly. Few parents come in, Most of these want to
discuss the schedules (日程安排). October brings many behaviour (行为) problems. Some
parents are called in. Others come by themselves. Things quiet down in November
December is a quiet month. “It’s the holiday,” Ms Foreman says. “People want to
come in, I know , but they decide to wait until after New Year’s Day.”Report cards go home just before Christmas holidays. Bad marks bring
parents in as school reopens. This happens again in March, another report card。
