高考英语阅读理解真题(2016-17全国卷3B篇)详解2016On one of her trips to New York several years ago, Eudora Welty decided to take a couple of New York friends out to dinner. They settled in at a comfortable East Side cafe and within minutes, another customer was approaching their table.“Hey, aren’t you from Mississippi?”the elegant, white-haired writer remembered being asked by the stranger. “I’m from Mississippi too.”Without a second thought, the woman joined the Welty party. When her dinner partner showed up, she also pulled up a chair.“They began telling me all the news of Mississippi,”Welty said. “I didn’t know what my New York friends were thinking.”Taxis on a rainy New York night are rarer than sunshine. By the time the group got up to leave, it was pouring outside. Welty’s new friends immediately sent a waiter to find a cab. Heading back downtown toward her hotel, her big-city friends were amazed at the turn of events that had changed their Big Apple dinner into a Mississippi.“My friends said: ‘Now we believe your stories,’”Welty added. “And I said: ‘Now you know. These are the people that make me write them.’”Sitting on a sofa in her room, Welty, a slim figure in a simple gray dress, looked pleased with this explanation.“I don’t make them up,”she said of the characters in her fiction these last 50 or so years. “I don’t have to.”Beauticians, bartenders, piano players and people with purple hats, Welty’s people come from afternoons spent visiting with old friends, from walks through the streets of her native Jackson, Miss., from conversations overheard on a bus. It annoys Welty that, at 78, her left ear has now given out. Sometimes, sitting on a bus or a train, she hears onlya fragment(片段) of a particularly interesting story.5.What happened when Welty was with her friends at the cafe?A. Two strangers joined her.B. Her childhood friends came in.C. A heavy rain ruined the dinner.D. Some people held a party there.6.The underlined word “them”in Paragraph 6 refers to Welty’s.A. readersB. partiesC. friendsD. stories7.What can we learn about the characters in Welty’s fiction?A. They live in big cities.B. They are mostly women.C. They come from real life.D. They are pleasure seekers.答案语篇分析:文章介绍了一位女作家请纽约的朋友吃饭时发生的故事。

Developed by two doctors in the U.S. Department of Agriculture, it’s an excellent water collector. Unfortunately, you must carry the necessary equipment with you, since it’s all but impossible to find natural substitutes. The only c omponents required, though, are a 5' 5' sheet of clear or slightly milky plastic, six feet of plastic tube, and a container— perhaps just a drinking cup — to catch the water. These pieces can be folded into a neat little pack and fastened on your belt.To construct a working still, use a sharp stick or rock to dig a hole four feet across and three feet deep. Try to make the hole in a damp area to increase the water catcher’s productivity. Place your cup in the deepest part of the hole. Then lay the tube in place so that one end rests all the way in the cup and the rest of the line runs up — and out — the side of the hole. Next, cover the hole with the plastic sheet, securing the edges of the plastic with dirt and weighting the sheet’s center down wit h a rock. The plastic should now form a cone(圆锥体) with45-degree-angled sides. The low point of the sheet must be centered directly over, and no more than three inches above, the cup.The solar still works by creating a greenhouse under the plastic. Ground water evaporates (蒸发) and collects on the sheet until small drops of water form, run down the material and fall off into the cup. When the container is full, you can suck the refreshment out through the tube, and won’t have to break down the still eve ry time you need a drink.33. What does the underlined phrase “the water catcher” in paragraph 2 refer to?A. The tube.B. The still.C. The hole.D. The cup.【名师点睛】近年来全国统一高考中加大了对考生猜词义能力的考查,因此,掌握一定的猜词技巧,对突破高考阅读理解、提高同学们的英语语言能力都有非常重要的意义。

Women are luckier,only about one in two hundred is affected in this matter. Perhaps,after all,it is safer to be driven by a woman. There are different forms of color blindness. In some cases a man may not be able to see deep red. He may think that red,orange and yellow are all shades of green. Sometimes a person cannot tell the difference between blue and green. In rare cases an unlucky man see everything in shades of green—a strange world indeed. Color blindness in human beings is a strange thing to explain. In a single eye there are millions of very small things called “cones”.These help us see in a bright day and tell the difference between colors. There are also millions of “rods”, but these are used for seeing when it is nearly dark. They show us shape but no color. Some insects have favorite colors. Mosquitoes(蚊子) like blue but do not like yellow. A red light will not attract insects,but a blue lamp will. In a similar way human beings also have favorite colors. Yet we are lucky. With the aid of the cones in our eyes we can see many beautiful colors by day,and with the aid of the rods we can see shapes at night.

2016高考专项【3+2+1】-英语(全国)考点梳理-专题25 新题型——七选五阅读理解
专题25 新题型——七选五阅读理解 【高考预测】 预测一 “七选五”型阅读理解题,试题模式为:给出一篇缺少五个句子的文章,对应有七个选项,要求同学们根据文章结构、内容,选出正确的句子,填入相应的空白处。《考试说明》对该题型命题目的的表述为“主要考查考生对文章的整体内容和结构以及上下文逻辑意义的理解和掌握。” 预测二 文章的篇幅较短,词数多为250~300,兼顾多种体裁,通常有记叙文、说明文、议论文、应用文等,要求考生充分利用所给信息,具备高效处理信息的能力,还要求考生对文章有更深层次的理解。 预测三 考查对文章的结构有所了解,把握住全篇的文脉,即句与句、段与段之间的逻辑关系。 【考点归纳】
从2016年开始,全国大部分省份将采用新课标全国卷。新课标全国卷中的阅读填空要求考生"明确、深刻地理解一篇文章,对文章的结构有所了解,把握住全篇的文脉,即句与句、段与段之间的逻辑关系。" 此题型文章中有5处空白,在阅读过程中,如果不明白文章的主旨和段落主题、作者的写作意图,就很难顺畅地读下去、读明白,自然就很难选出正确答案。而一个空填错势必又影响到对另外一个空的选择。另外,此题有5个空白处,却提供7个选项,因此有2个选项是多余的干扰选项,从而又加大了选出正确答案的难度。 该题型要求同学们从整体上把握文章的逻辑结构和内容上的联系,理解句子之间、段落之间的关系,对诸如连贯性、一致性等语段特征有较强的意识和熟练的把握。 如果说通常意义上的高考英语完形填空题是词法和句法范围内的考察,是语言表达的基本单位,属于语言的组织规律,那么阅读填空题就是章法范围内的考查,是语言使用的范畴,属于言语的组织规律,简单地说,前者侧重语言的结构--语法,而后者侧重语言的使用--章法. 【考点pk】 名师考点透析 根据出题形式的不同,填空类题型可以分为句子填空题,段落摘要,带选项的段落摘要等题型。.传统的分题型讲解的方法倾向于把这些题型拆开,这些题型的出题思路大同小异,一旦掌握了这些题目的共性,做题就会变得易如反掌。 1.考查内容均为细节 每一道填空题的题目基本上都是对原文的一句话或者几句话进行的同义改写,不会出现对多句话或者是整段进行的概括归纳. 2.所填答案基本唯一 虽然这种考试需要考生自己书写答案,但是所有答案均来自于原文,不需要考生用自己的语言对原词进行改写.极个别情况下会出现词序颠倒,但是基本上不需要考生进行词性.时态.单复数等曲折形式的转换.这是由阅读的目的所决定的,只考查考生的阅读能力,而无意检验考生的写作能力. 3.凸显构成语段的方式 一是靠句际间意义的结合,二是靠句际间的关联词,逻辑性插入语来连接,我们在分析语段层次时,可以借助句际间的连接词语作出判断,但最主要的还是要真正体会句际间的意义关系,把握作者的思路,从语序上去发现断续点,理清层次,好文章的层次非矴逦?只有层层入手,才能真正理解文章. 通过对高考中“七选五”型阅读理原题以及大量同类试题研究可知,此类试题虽然新颖,但是也有其特有的解题规律,主要注重解题的窍门和方法,成功闯关,选准答案的难度并不大。 根据作者归纳的解题方法和窍门,为帮助同学们记忆和使用,特将此方法归结为“通读全文、详读段落、定位选项、通读复检、确定排除”五步解题法。以下就此方法进行分析,希望此方法能为同学们的解题提供助力。 步骤一:通读全文,对文章进行快速浏览,寻找主题句,抓住文章结构及文章的写作内容。 在阅读过程中,要注意文章的开始与结束段落,尤其是文章的首段及末段末句,因为开门见山与结尾总结的写作方式为常见的写作方式,首段的末句一般是是全文的主题所在,说明本文将探讨哪些内容,并简要指出文章的写作思路,有时甚至会以提纲的形式呈现。首段的末句对于快速掌握文章的主题具有重要意义,如果它是文章的主题句,就可以使读者迅速明确文章情节将如何展开,并对文章的写作主题有了整体的了解。如果末句不是主题句,则需要继续寻找。这时,可以考虑文章的写作方式是否为•结尾总结:

语鹅市安置阳光实验学校湖北2016高考英语阅读理解二轮训练(2)【2014高考训练题】“There is no second chance…there is no chance of making mistakes.”That’s why Dr. Omer Mei-Dan and others who enjoyed base-jumping and wingsuit(翼装) flying were sad but not surprised by the recent deaths of three extreme sports enthusiasts.Mark Sutton, the English parachutist(跳伞者), died on August 14 in Switzerland when he flew into a rocky ridge(山脊) in a wingsuit. Not even a week afterward, Mario Richard, a Canadian base-jumper, died in Italy during a wingsuit flight, when he “apparently failed to clear a rock by three meters.” And most recently, Hungarian wingsuit flyer Victor Kovats died in Tianmen Mountain National Forest Park in Zhangjiajie on Oct. 9 during a practice flight ahead of the World Championships.According to Mei-Dan, six to seven percent of the 3,000 or so base-jumpers who use wingsuits or parachutes die each year — a huge number when you consider the most dangerous job in America, logging which has an annual death rate well under one percent of the workers.Base-jumpers and wingsuit flyers are experienced. They have hundreds of practice before trying to fly from buildings, cliffs and towers. The same goes for those who drop from helicopters above mountains and valleys and then use their wingsuits to try to whiz by(飞速掠过) as close as possible to the rocks and ridges below.Among the dangers, said Mei-Dan, is the temptation to “push the envelope ” : To try to get close to a rock wall, for example, than anyone else. “ When you push the envelope and you can not have any error at all, or you have to pay for it with your life.”So why do it? The experience of flying toward the ground in a wingsuit is almost indescribable. “It’s something that you really have to try to understand —what type of feeling you get when you’re free falling next to a cliff,” Mei-Dan said.41. What’s the main idea of the first paragraph?A. Trying wingsuit flying once is enough.B. Wingsuit flying is always easy to do.C. Wingsuit flying lasts only a short time.D. Even a single mistake in wingsuit flying is disastrous.42. How did other flyers react to the recent deaths of their fellows?A. They thought the deaths could have been avoided.B. They felt the need of reconsidering the safety of wingsuit flying.C. They were sad and were in deep sorrow.D. They felt sad but did not find the deaths surprising.43. What does the third paragraph tell us?A. How the three wingsuit flyers died.B. Why wingsuit flying is so dangerous.C. Where wingsuit flying is most dangerous.D. What a wingsuit flyer’s career is like.44. What does the underlined phrase “push the envelope” mean?A. To attempt to push further in a wingsuit.B. To risk moving the envelope away.C. To be determined to give up on oneself.D. To try to go beyond the normal limits of something.45. The extreme sports enthusiasts like wingsuit flying because they _____.A. want to know what it feels likeB. wish to describe the experienceC. enjoy the wonderful experienceD. devote themselves to scientific research【参考答案】41~45 DDADC【2014高考训练题】What would it be like to take a walk on the surface of Mars? If you could design the tallest building in the world, what would it look like? Do you dream of being the next J.K.Rowling? This summer, you can experience all of these things, and more. All you need is an Internet connection and your imagination. A recent study by the Kaiser Family Foundation found that kids spend an average of 1 hour and 29 minutes online each day. Many kids like to use that time to chat with friends, play games or check e-mail. But next time you get on the Web, try exploring the world instead. “With the Internet, you can go back 11,000 years in time, or go 11,000 kilometers across the planet,” said Russell, Web search expert of Google. “The whole scope of history and the world is open to you.”There is a wealth of information to be found online. For example, if your family is going on vacation somewhere, do a quick online search on the area before you even get in the car. “What’s the background of the place; what’s the history?” says Russell. “I like to tell my kids, ‘Whenever you have a question, whenever yo u have a doubt, search it out.’ ”Ready to launch a virtual(虚拟的) journey of your own? Here are a few starting points to get you thinking and to help you on your way. You can invite your parents along for the ride, too.

Getting rid of dirt, in the opinion of most people, is a good thing. However, there is nothing fixed about attitudes to dirt.In the early 16th century, people thought that dirt on the skin was a means to block out disease, as medical opinion had it that washing off dirt with hot water could open up the skin and let ills in. A particular danger was thought to lie in public baths. By 1538, the French king had closed the bath houses in his kingdom. So did the king of England in 1546. Thus began a long time when the rich and the poor in Europe lived with dirt in a friendly way. Henry IV, King of France, was famously dirty. Upon learning that a nobleman had taken a bath, the king ordered that, to avoid the attack of disease, the nobleman should not go out.Though the belief in the merit of dirt was long-lived, dirt has no longer been regarded as a nice neighbor ever since the 18th century. Scientifically speaking, cleaning away dirt is good to health. Clean water supply and hand washing are practical means of preventing disease. Yet, it seems that standards of cleanliness have moved beyond science si nce World War Ⅱ.Advertisements repeatedly sell the idea; clothes need to be whiter than white, cloths ever softer, surfaces to shine. Has the hate for dirt, however, gone too far?Attitudes to dirt still differ hugely nowadays.Many first-time parents nervously try to warn their children off touching dirt, which might be responsible for the spread of disease.On the contrary,Mary Ruebush,an American immunologist(免疫学家),encourages children to play in thedirt to build up a strong immune system.And the latter position is gaining some ground.本文介绍了人们对灰尘的不同态度和看法。

【2014一模试题】 When we’re in need, we always turn to our parents for help. But would you like them to hear the conversations you have with your friends on the school playground or lunch queue? Social networking sites have become extensions (延伸) of the school hallways, so would you add your parents as “friends” and allow them to view your online activities and conversations with friends? In the past the generation gap included a technology gap, where children were up to date with latest technology and parents were left behind, content to continue their day to day lives as they always had because they had no need to know more about technology. However, more and more parents are beginning to realize just how important social networks are in their lives. This realization has given many parents the motivation to educate themselves about social networking sites. These days many people are attracted to social networking sites because they can choose who they have around them; there’s also a certain amount of control over privacy that we don’t get in real life. Sometimes we feel that privacy is violated (侵犯)when we must accept a “friend” request from a parent or family member. It’s a difficult choice whether or not to allow a parent to become a part of our online lives. On the one hand we don’t want to “reject” their request because that might hurt their feelings or make them feel you have something to hide. On the other hand if you do accept, then you could have a sense of being watched and no longer feel free to comment or communicate the way you did before. A recent survey suggested that parents shouldn’t take it personally if their child ignores their request: “When a teen ignores a parent’s friend request, it doesn’t necessarily mean that they are hiding something, but it could mean that this is one part of their life where they want to be independent.” Perhaps talking with parents and giving explanations would help soften the blow if you do choose not to add them to your friends list. 21. The passage is mainly about ______. A. privacy online B. parents’ friend requests C. the generation gap D. social networks 22. From Paragraph 2, we learn that ______. A. parents have realized the importance of social networks B. parents feel secure about their privacy online C. social networks successfully fill the generation gap D. social networks offer a platform for parents to communicate 23. Teenagers may refuse a parent’s friend request because ______. A. their parents make negative comments on them B. they hide something from their parents C. they are unwilling to be watched by parents D. their parents tend to fall behind in technology 24. The passage is written mainly for ______. A. parents B. teachers C. researchers D. teenagers 【参考答案】21—24 BACD
【2014模拟】 阅读理解。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。 Most students, when asked about their ideal graduation gift, would probably reply, “A car”, or “Money for a deposit on a house”. Cai Kaiyuan, 21, made a different choice. As a graduation gift to himself, he decided to work as a volunteer teacher in a remote village in Tibet. Cai, a senior majoring in electrical engineering at Huan Railway Professional Technology College, originally planned to cycle from Sichuan to Tibet. During his journey, Cai’s idea for a different graduation gift to himself began to take shape. “I did not know beforehand what the journey would mean to me. I just want to gain a unique experience and have pleasure in appreciating the view there,” he said. It turned out cycling on a plateau was extremely challenging. And it has kept changing his outlook on life. Cai’s fingers even became frostbitten while cycling up a 5008-meter-high mountain, where temperatures often dropped to 18 below zero. At night, the ice covered the road and he fell off his bike three times. The lack of oxygen made him feel dizzy and weak. “At the most serious moment, I felt that my life was on the line,” said Cai. However, he also gained something unexpected. At Ya’an, a city in Sichuan, he met a group of tourists who are also university students. A girl called Wu Ling told him that she planned to work as a teacher in a primary school in Tibet after her journey. He was impressed by the idea as she looked slender and weak. It was not until he reached a family-run hotel in Shigatse that Cai’s spirits began to rise. The hotel manager’s two daughters enjoyed talking with him. The kids asked about his experiences on his trip, and showed him the beautiful local lakes. “They told me that they always liked to talk to guests, as they wanted to improve their Mandarin,” he said, “Their parents and many locals can only speak Tibetan.” Cai was touched by the girls’ story. Their situation is tough and the local people have little chance to learn Mandarin because the schools are short of teachers. “I want to do something to improve the situation for
