山东枣庄市2016高考英语(二轮)阅读理解训练(3)及答案阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中,选出最佳选项。
【2014高考英语综合能力测试题】When we consider the large number of people who need help, being part of the solution can seem overwhelming. There are hundreds of thousands of kids trapped in quitting schools in the U.S. alone. There are many millions of starving children around the world. How can a single person who isn't a billionaire have an impact? Where do you start? Start with one small act.When Hilde Back was a schoolteacher in Sweden, she decided to sponsor (赞助) one child's education in Kenya. Hilde's sponsorship of Chris cost about $15 per month. Most poor children in Kenya cannot afford to pay secondary school tuition. Unfortunately, without an education, an extremely difficult and poor life is practically guaranteed. Thanks to Hilde's generosity, Chris avoided that fate.Chris graduated from high school, went to University of Nairobi and then attended Harvard Law School. He became a U.N. Human Rights Advocate, and he started a charity. He got the name of his anonymous (匿名的) sponsor through the Swedish embassy and named his nonprofit organization the Hilde Back Education Fund (HBEF) after the sponsor he never met.HBEF pays tuition for poor students in Kenya. Since the charity's start, 350 children have been supported. Three hundred and fifty lives have been changed directly so far. That doesn't even include the impact on their families. And who knows how many of these students will be inspired, as Chris was, to give back.When talking about why he started HBEF to educate poor children, he said, "I think I want to see a world in which children have equal opportunity and are not robbed of their future by poverty, like so many of my friends in the village were."It's interesting that the only reason why Hilde Back was even alive to support Chris was because of a stranger's kindness. This is a reminder that we can all make a difference, and you never know what a big impact a small act of kindness can have.26. What's the function of the first paragraph?A. To tell a story.B. To give an example.C. To introduce the topic.D. To list some questions.27. Which of the following best describes Hilde Back?A. She used to be a poor student in Kenya.B. She did a small act to make a big difference.C. She offered something great to a poor student.D. She did a small act to get a fund named after her.28. What can be inferred from the passage?A. Chris named his fund after meeting Hilde Back.B. Chris would have a fate of poverty without an education.C. Chris' fund is aimed to help poor children in his village.D. Chris knew the name of his 'sponsor before graduation.29. How is the passage organized?A. Topic- Examples - ConclusionB. Topic - Argument - ExplanationC. Introduction - Comparison - DiscussionD. Introduction- Description- Explanation30. What might be the best title of this passage?A. Help the poorB. Learn from Hilde BackC. To be a generous sponsorD. Start with one small act【参考答案】26-30 CBBADHilde Back曾受过陌生人的帮助,也曾帮助过陌生人Chris, Chris后来成功了并成立了一个教育基金(HBEF)来帮助更多需要帮助的人。

阅读下列短文, 从给的四个选项(A、B、C和D) 中, 选出最佳选项。
Today, ultrasonic(超声的) waves are being put to work in laboratories and factories. If an ultrasound generator is placed in a liquid, the waves move the liquid back and forth hundreds of thousands of times each second. This causes materials to mix quickly or to dissolve(使分解,使溶解) in liquids. Paint manufacturers(制造商) use ultrasound to do a better job of blending colors. The companies that make film for your camera find that mixing chemicals by the use of sound waves will produce a more sensitive film.The new lightweight(轻量的) type of washing machine uses ultrasonic waves to get clothes clean. Its special ultrasound generator is put into a pail of soapy water containing the soiled clothes. The sound waves drive the soapy water back and forth through the cloth so fast that everything is soon clean. There is also a new kind of dishwasher that works in much the same way.Ultrasonic waves can shake a liquid so fast that tiny holes form all through it. The liquid is actually torn apart by this action. Almost as soon as these holes are made, they fall together again. The result is a powerful pounding action. In the dairy industry this is used for the double purpose of making homogenized(使均匀,使匀质) milk and sterilizing(使无菌) it at the same time. If you look at some raw milk with a microscope, you find that it is made up of little drops of butter fat floating around in a watery liquid. In order to make milk easier to digest, these fatdroplets(微粒) may be broken up by forcing the milk through very small openings. The result is called homogenized milk. When the ultrasonic method is used, the sound waves not only break up the droplets but also kill the germs in the milk by pounding them to pieces. (from )1. Why does a paint manufacturer use ultrasound to do a better job of blending colors?A. Because it is cheap to use ultrasound to blend colors.B. Because the waves move the liquid so quickly that it can make materials mix quickly or dissolve in liquids.C. Because they can mix chemicals by the use of sound waves.D. Because the waves can clean the paint.2. What properties does ultrasound wave have?A. Homogenizes and sterilizes the milk.B. Mix materials and break droplets.C. Kill germs and sterilize milk.D. Move liquids quickly.3. What exists in the raw milk?A. Little drops of butter fat.B. Small holes.C. Fat droplets and germs.D. Chemicals. 4. Where is ultrasound wave not used?A. In the paint manufacture.B. In the shop mixing bread flour.C. In the film-making company.D. In the dairy industry.1. B 事实细节题。

高中英语真题:2014高考英语阅读理解、完形填空二轮精品训练(2)含答案In late March, Southwest University became the first school in China to open a 24-hour hotline providing suicide-prevention counseling.College suicide is a heart-breaking and controversial topic.Chinese college students hav e long been the focus of public attention: their youth, education and.most importantly, bright futures make them the envy of so ciety.However, in recent years, we've read more reports of student s uicides.Perhaps that's simply because of society's attention wi th youth.But it could also signify the increasing troubled menta l state of young people.Many studies have sought to find out the causes of student suic ides.Not surprisingly, the top factors usually include psycholog ical and physical sickness, emotional trouble and peer pressure . Despair about their futures is also quickly becoming a leadin g factor: many students say they feel hopeless and confused about the direction of their careers in a crowded job market.Thankfully, more and more universities and colleges are providi ng counseling services to address students' mental and psychol ogical problems.These at least offer some comfort to students facing tough job prospects and personal difficulties.From appointing in-house student counselors to setting up hotlines and recruiting st udents to help their troubled peers, many universities are makin g efforts to fight student depression.There is no denying that much remains to be done, but such efforts are already working, helping students and saving lives.However, the most important front in this battle lies with the stu dents themselves.Whatever efforts school officials make, it is up to students to realize their problems and ask help.Unfortun ately, many students considering suicide refuse to seek help.By shutting themselves away, they can easily fall into vicious cy cles (恶性循环) , becoming even more easily hurt to personal difficulties a nd the pressures of the outside world.While establishing better on-campus psychological education and outreach programs as a st ep forward, students themselves must actively reach out for hel p.These dangers are a reality for every student, not only thosewho feel confused and depressed.53.Why are there so many students that commit suicide?A.Because of psychological and physical sickness.B.Because they feel hopeless and confused about their future .C.Because of the emotional trouble.D.All of the above.54.According to the article, all of the following are right except _ __.A.No university in China had a whole day hotline providing sui cide-prevention counseling before March.B.Many people envy the college students their bright futures .C.The students who feel confused and "depressed may have psychological problems and need psychological education.D.The problems of student suicides indicate the increasing tro ubled mental state of young people.55.The key to avoid student suicides is that ___.A.parents communicate with their children and understand the m.B.colleges and universities oner more help to students.C.students themselves realize their problems and seek help fr om others.D.friends give more comfort and show more understanding to the problem students.56.Which of the following can be the best title for the article?A.Help is at hand for suicidal students.B.More college students commit suicide.C.How can students avoid committing suicide?D.Why do college students feel depressed?***************************************************结束I told my friend Graham that I often cycle two miles from my ho use to the town centre but unfortunately there is a big hill on the route.He replied, "You mean fortunately."He explained that I should be glad of the extra exercise that the hill provided.My attitude to the hill has now changed.I used to grumble as I approached it but now I tell myself the following.This hill will e xercise my heart and lungs.It will help me to lose weight and g et fit.It will mean that I live longer.This hill is my friend.Final ly I comfort myself with the thought of all those silly people who pay money to go to a gym and sit on stationery exercise bicycle s when I call get the same value for free.I have a smile of sati sfaction as I reach the top of the hill.Problems are there to be faced and overcome.We cannot achi eve anything with an easy life.Helen Keller was the first deaf a nd blind person to gain a university degree.Her activism and writing proved inspirational.She wrote?" Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet.Only through experiences of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, vision cleared, amb ition inspired and success achieved."One of the main determinants of success in life is our attitude to wards adversity (逆境).From time to time we all face hardships, problems, accid ents, afflictions and difficulties.Some are of our making but many confront us through no fault of our own.While we cannot ch oose the adversity we can choose our attitude towards it.Douglas Bader was 21 when in 1931 he had both legs cut off fo llowing a flying accident.He was deter-mined to fly again and went on to become one of the leading flyi ng aces in the Battle of Britain with 22 aerial victories over the Germans.He was an inspiration to others during the war.He said, "Don't listen to any-one who tells you that you can't do this or that.That's nonsens e.Make up your mind, you'll never use crutches(拐杖)or a stick, then have a go at everything.Go to school, join in all the games you can.Go anywhere you want to.But never, ne ver let them persuade you that things are too difficult or impossi ble."The biographies (传记) of great people are full of examples of how they took steps to overcome the difficulties they faced.The common thread is that they did not become depressed.They chose their attitude .They chose to be positive.They took on the challenge.The y won.Nevertheless, there is still the problem of how you change your attitude towards adversity.57.Which of the following is true according to the author of the passage?A.Climbing hills on bicycles is the best way to fake exercise.B.People are silly to pay to go to the gym.C.Those who want to achieve success cant expect to live all e asy life.D.People's attitude towards adversity is the only factor that de termines whether they will succeed.58.By quoting what Douglas Bader said, the author intends to tell us"________."A.Failure is the mother of Success.B.A fall into the pit, a gain in your wit.C.If you venture nothing, you will have nothing.D.Nothing is difficult to the man who will try.59.Following this passage, the author will further talk about___ __.A.how his friend helped him to change his attitude towards theadversity he facedB.what steps to take to change your attitude towards the adve rsity you faceC.what great people have in commonD.why it is important to

【由山东省2022模拟改编】阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。
“Confidence” is probably one of the most noticeable traits(品质)in the Americans.They show confidence in the way they talk,the way they smile,the way they dress and the way they walk.Living and competing with all these confidence American students,I find it extremely important to be confident as an international student and instructor.As a student,being confident means you should never hesitate to raise your hand whenever a question or a point comes to your mind.Don’t mind if it sounds simple or silly.Otherwise you will never get a chance to speak in class at all.What’s worse,the professors may think you are not prepared for the discussion or you do not have your own opinion on the issue—this is the last comment any graduate would like to receive.Being confidence for me as a foreign instructor means calmly asking the student to repeat what he or she has said if I did not get it.Pretending to understand what you actually did not may just bring yourself embarrassment or even disgrace.But the time I most need to be confident is when my students come to my office and bargain about the grades I have given for their Speeches.(The course I’m teaching here is Public Speaking).Modesty is a trait highly valued in China,but it won’t be of much help here if you want to survive and succeed in a good American graduate program.1.To compete with American students it’s very important to.A.be quite confident B.be polite and friendlyC.have more discussions with them D.understand what they think about2.A professor will have the worst opinion of a student who .A.gives a silly or simple answerB.tries to seize any chance to speak in classC.shows no interest in the courseD.is considered to have no opinion of his own3.The author is most likely to feel embarrassed if .A.he asks a student to repeat what he has saidB.the students bargain with himC.he pretends to know what he doesn’tD.he has to give a speech4.We learn from the second paragraph that .A.we should also remain modest in AmericaB.modesty doesn’t help you much in AmericaC.Americans also like modest peopleD.modesty can help you through an American graduate program5.The passage is mainly developed by .A.providing examplesB.making comparisonsC.giving different figuresD.telling personal experiences【参考答案】1---5、ADCBD2022高考英语二轮:(精选)阅读理解训练(2)及答案AWhen Paul was a boy growing up in Utah, he happened to live near a copper smelter (炼铜厂), and the chemicals that poured out had made a wasteland out of what used to be a beautiful forest. One day a young visitor looked at this wasteland and called it an awful area. Paul knocked him down. From then on, something happened inside him. Years later Paul was back in the area, and he went to the smelter office. He asked if they had any plans or if they would let him try to bring the trees back. The answer from that big industry was “No”.Paul then went to college to study the science of plants. Unfortunately, his teachers said there weren’t any birds or squirrels to spread the seeds. It would be a waste of his life to try to do it. Everyone knew that, he was told. Even if he was knowledgeable as he had expected, he wouldn’t get his idea accepted.Paul later got married but his dream would not die. And then one night he did what he could with what he had. As Samuel Johnson wrote, “It is common to overlook what is near by keeping the eye fixed on something remote.Attainable good is often ignored by minds busied in wide ranges.” Under the cover of darkness, he went secretly into the wasteland and started planting.And every week, he made his secret journey into the wasteland and planted trees and grass. For fifteen years he did this against the plain common sense. Slowly rabbits appeared. Later, as there was legal pressure to clean up the environment, the company actually hired Paul to do what he was already doing.Now the place is fourteen thousand acres of trees and grass and bushes, and Paul has received almost every environmental award Utah has. It took him until his hair turned white, but he managed to keep that impossible vow (誓言) he made to himself as a child.21.When Paul was a boy, _______.A. he had decided never to leave his hometownB. the economy of Utah depended wholly on the copper smelterC. he hit a young visitor because of his comments on the wastelandD. he stopped the copper smelter polluting the area22.Paul went to college to study the science of plants, because _______.A. he wanted to find out the best way to save the area himselfB. he was interested in planting trees since he was youngC. he wanted to get more knowledgeable people to help himD. he thought his knowledge would make his advice more convincing23.What does the underlined phrase “the plain common sense” probably mean?A. It was impossible for trees to grow on the wasteland.B. His normal work and life would be greatly affected.C. No one would like to join him in the efforts.D. He had to keep everything he did secret.24.The company hired Paul to plant trees and grass because_______.A. they realized the importance of environmental protectionB. what Paul was doing moved themC. Paul persuaded them to help himD. they had legal pressure参考答案A篇21-24 CDADBMusic died here last spring, or rather, it was killed by members of the school committee who ignored the importance of music and drama as part of the high-school curriculum (课程). The committee decided that teaching students how to take a standardized test is more important than a curriculum in which students can explore their interests in the arts as well as academics. Because the school system is running out of funding, it needs to make sure that students pass the test or even more money will be lost. If students fail the state standardized test,it is not the fault of drama and music classes—they are failing because the “academic” classes are not sufficient (充分的).It is painful to think of how many students will be discouraged from singing, acting, and playing instruments because school programs are no longer offered. Many families cannot afford private music lessons, and many potential musicians and artists may not find their calling if they are not exposed to it in school. The fact that the school committee thinks the arts are not worth the investment will certainly make some students believe the arts are not worth their time or support and the cycle will continue.Teaching for a test does not shape students into complete, well-rounded people. It blocks the natural sense to create and express feelings through art—there is more to life than the analytical thinking that math and English provide. What happens after a test? Sure, a student might graduate, but they will have limited knowledge—certainly not a good preparation for the real world.25. Music and drama are not included in the high school curriculum mainly because ________.A. the school committee pays no attention to themB. the school is afraid of losing financial supportC. the students are not interested in both of themD. the state standardized test is more important26. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. The sufficiency of the classes determines students’ performance in the mastery test.B. Quite a few students are discouraged from learning music and art in today’s school system.C. Students can be musicians and artists only if they can afford private music lessons.D. The school committee completely influences students’attitude towards the arts.27. We can learn that music and art can ________.A. motivate students in creativity and expressionB. make students round-shaped people in futureC. provide students with analytical thinkingD. prevent students graduation from high school28. The best title of the passage can be ________.A. Who killed music and drama?B. Can curriculum go without music?C. Why is music so important?D. How to prepare for the real world?参考答案B篇25-28 BBABCFor more than 40 years, scientists have sought to learn how well human beings can adapt to long periods in space. The International Space Station continues to provide valuable knowledge about spaceflight. But an earlier space station, Skylab, helped make the current space project possible.Canadian astronaut Chris Hadfield sang aboard the International Space Station on May 12, 2021. His music video has become extremely popular. The astronaut played his own version of David Bowie’s song Space Oddity. He performed while floating weightlessly, with images of planet earth and space appearing in the window behind him.Chris Hadfield recently returned home after nearly five months on the space station. For him, the long flight produced a hit video on YouTube and no major physical problems. But 40 years ago, scientists did not know how humans would react to long-term spaceflight. To find out, NASA, the American space agency, launched Skylab in May, 1973. Over nearly a year, three teams of astronauts visited Skylab for stays of between 28 to 84 days. They learned how people react to extended periods in space.Gerald C arr commanded Skylab 4. He spoke at a NASA event marking the 40th anniversary of Skylab’s launch. He said that the loss of the body’s muscle mass was a main concern. Astronauts on Skylab used exercise equipment to stay strong. The astronauts spent their workdays carrying out experiments, including biomedical (生物医学的) research.Marshall Porterfield is the director of NASA’s Space Life and Physical Sciences Division. He says the Skylab astronauts’ understanding of their own ability to deal with long-term spaceflight continues to help current astronauts. NASA says the next step for life away from Earth is a year-long space station mission, set for 2021.29. Why was Chris Hadfield’s song so special?A. It was performed in space.B. It was created by an astronaut.C. It was a very familiar song.D. It was first sung by a famous singer.30.

主旨大意类A(2023·湖南省岳阳市高三二模)At all hours of the day, white-aproned bakers occupy themselves in working in the Hot Bread Kitchen, throwing flour across butcher-block tables, filling metal trays with hand-shaped bread, and shifting steaming, fresh bread to cooling shelves.The only bodies at rest in this New York City bakery are pans with bread, waiting to be sent into the oven.The skilled bakers turn out around 25 varieties ranging from classic French baguettes to crisp Armenian lavash crackers—which they sell at farmers' markets and gourmet stores.But Hot Bread Kitchen is more than a bakery: It's a nonprofit designed to give foreign-born women the skills and support they need to establish careers in the culinary arts.Overseeing daily operation of the place—and often rolling up her own shirt sleeves to involve in—is 35-year-old founder and CEO Jessamyn Rodriguez.By mixing her lifelong passion for society with great food, Rodriguez says she has created her dream job.In 2008, Rodriguez launched the bakery in the small Brooklyn apartment she shared with roommates, hiring two immigrant women as her first bakers.“I was definitely breaking new ground, and we faced a lot of skeptics,” she says of those early days.“But for every person who questioned it, there were five people who were interested in supporting us.” Today, Hot Bread Kitchen employs a staff of 35 and occupies a nearly 5,000-square-foot space in La Marqueta, a public market in East Harlem.The women who bake and package Hot Bread Kitchen's offerings range in age from 21 to 60.Coming from lands such as Haiti, Nepal, and the Dominican Republic, some have lived in the U.S.for as little as a year.Others, including production manager Antonia Garcia, who is originally from Mexico, have called America home for more than a decade.These women's diverse homelands are reflected in many of the bakery's products, like heritage tortillas and the wildly popular m'smen, a buttery bread.The program has far surpassed Rodriguez's original hopes.Since its humble beginnings, Hot Bread Kitchen has trained 27 women from 12 countries.They receive paid, on-the-job experience, as well as courses in bakery sciences, and English as part of a yearlong training program.1.What does the first paragraph mainly talk about?A.Constant activity of skilled workers.B.Varieties of fresh baked goods.C.Many different types of equipment used in bakeries.D.Difficult working conditions of bakery employees.2.Which of the following can best describe Jessamyn Rodriguez?A.Adventurous and modest.B.Ambitious and gifted.C.Hard-working and courageous.D.Devoted and stubborn.3.How does the author establish the diversity of Hot Bread Kitchen?A.By describing the courses offered to employees.B.By introducing the backgrounds of the employees.C.By describing the bakery's location at La Marqueta.D.By introducing the bakery's development since 2008.4.What is the main idea of the article?A.Employees from diverse homelands produce various products.B.The hardworking women have helped Hot Bread Kitchen develop quickly.C.Rodriguez became a successful baker after establishing Hot Bread Kitchen.D.Hot Bread Kitchen provides professional opportunities for immigrant women.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。

This is how everyone learned to read. We would start off with sentences, then paragraphs, and then stories. It seemed an unending journey, but even as a six-year-old girl I realized that knowing how to read could open many doors. When mom said, “The C-A -N-D-Y is hidden on the top shelf,” I knew where the candy was. My progress in reading raised my curiosity, and I wanted to know everything. I often found myself telling my mom to drive more slowly, so that I could read all of the road signs we passed.

It all began when Moore visited a bank with her dad. On the outing, she was offered a candy bar. However, her dad reminded her that sugary treats were bad for her teeth. But Moore was sick of missing out on candies. So she desired to get round the warning, “Why can't I make a healthy candy that's good for my teeth so that my parents can't say no to it?” With that in mind, Moore asked her dad if she could start her own candy company. He recommended that she do some research and talk to dentists about what a healthier candy would contain.
