安徽省淮北市杜集区2017高考英语一轮阅读理解学生自选题二2016高考英语阅读理解——人物传记/故事类LONDON---The International Table Tennies Federation(ITTF) plans to work with Bill Gates, the chairman of Microsoft Corporation, to promote(促进) table tennis in the United States, ITTF PresidentAdham Sharara said.The plan was put forward after Gates came to London to watch the game between US teen player Ariel Hsing and Chinese Li Xiaoxia on Sunday, Sharara told Xinhua in an interview.Sharara didn’t disclose the details, but said that Gates offered to help after watching Hsing’s match, in which the 16-year-old girl nearly pulled off one of the biggest upsets in Olympic table tennis history, pushing No. 2 seed Li to the limit before losing 4-2 in six tight sets.“Gates was surprised to se e the young American girl played so well. He asked me what he can do to help promote table tennis in the United States. I think we’ll work with him. If the United States becomes very strong in table tennis, it’s also good for China,” Sharara said.Shar ara said the case is a “good example” which shows that ITTF’s efforts in promoting the popularity. The ITTF has changed its rules for the London Games, allowing only two players from one nation to enter the singles events. Three players from each National Olympic Committee(NOC) were allowed to enter the singles in previous Games.“The reason we do this is to help more NOCs to join in our game. If we give more chances to the top countries, someone like Hsing will not come to the Olympic Games. They have no chance. But if we give them the chance, we can see what they can do,” Sharara said.Sharara said the change increased the pressure on strong teams, like China, Japan, South Korea and Germany. “But they understand now because they saw other NOCs atte nding. Some countries before had no chance to play in table tennis, but now they are joining in table tennis.”Other changes made to the Olympic Games include the color of floor (from red to blue) and new table design. “As far as presentation is concer ned, we try to change all the time, especially in the Olympic Games. We hope to give audiences something new, exciting and cool.”Table tennis has long been the strengths of Asia, especially China. Since the sport was introduced into the Olympics in 1988, China has taken 20 of 24 gold medals available. Four years ago in Beijing, it claimed six medals in the men’s and women’s singles.Talking about the development of table tennis, Sharara said, “China has the responsibility to promote the sport. Of c ourse, China has done a lot.”【小题1】It is mainly reported in this news that in order to promote table tennis in the United States, _______.A.ITTF will cooperate with Gates B.Gates watched Hsing’s matchC.some rules have been changed D.Hsing pushed Li Xiaoxia to the limit【小题2】What gave Gates more confidence to promote table tennis in the United States?

Have you got some information about endangered animals?Ss: Yes.T: OK. Now fill the form on the screen using your information.Possible answers:Step II Reading and WritingGet the students to match the sentences with the animals according to the table andthen describe the other animals after the example.T: Now Turn to page 58, read the table and match the sentences with the animals. Have you finished it?Ss: Yes.T: What is your answer in a complete sentence?Ss:1. African Elephant is the world’s biggest land animal; a fully grown adult can weigh five tons.2. Siberian Tiger can be found in parts of Siberia and northeast China.3. Northern Bald Ibis feed mostly on insects and small reptiles, but also eat fish and frogs.4. The population of Blue Whale is supposed to be less than 5,000; some experts believe the figure could be nearer 2,000.T: You are quite right. Let’s read the description of the Siberian Tiger and then write a similar description of another animal in the table.Sample answers:S1: Blue Whale is the biggest animal in the world. It weighs more than 100 tons. It can be only found in oceans, especially in the Arctic and the Antarctic Waters. It preys on plankton, a kind of small micro-organism. The main threat to it is hunting for its oil and meat. Today the animal is almost extinct. It is said less than 5,000 are still alive. Maybe the total population is no more than 2,000.S2: African Elephant is the world’s biggest land animal, which weighs about 5 tons. Its habitats are mainly in forests, river valleys and semi-desert south of Sahara Desert in Africa. It feeds on plants such as grass, leaves, fruit and so on. African elephants have been hunted for their tusks for a long time. The so called “ivory” was used as a source of all kinds of ornaments. There were about 1.3 million of them in 1980, but now it has fallen to 400,000.S3: Northern Bald Ibis is a large black bird which is famous for its long red peak. It mainly lives in Morocco and some other coastal areas. Many kinds of animals such as insects, small reptiles, even frogs and fishes fall prey to it. What has made it on the brink of extinction is still a puzzle. Some experts believe it’s owing to the nature itself. Only 200 — 300 can be found now. People in Middle East a re said to have seen the birds recently.T: You’ve done very well!Step III Task (P60)Get the students to choose an animal to describe it according to the instructions. T: From your homework I can see that you’ve got much information about endangered species in China. Now choose one of them to describe it and its habitat, explain why it is in danger, tell how many are left and say what we can do to help them. T: Have you finished it?Ss: Yes.T: OK. Present yours to the rest of your group. Who volunteers to read yours?S1: My title is Saving Hainan Gibbon Hainan gibbon is a member of primate, which is one of the world four gibbons. It is the smallest ape and looks like a monkeywith long arms. It can be found in the thick forest in tropical and subtropical areas and lives in trees all year around no matter when it is resting or eating something. It can jump from tree to tree on its long arms and its hooked hands swiftly. Occasionally he walks on the ground with its body half standing and its two arms lifted above its head or bend on its sides. The way it walks is rather funny. It lives in groups and can cry for a long time at a time. Twigs and tender leaves are its main prey. But with the over-development of the local economy around its habitat, many trees have been cut down and its habitat has been greatly reduced. This has made it an endangered animal. Its total number was only 20 in 1998. In order to prevent it from extinction we should stop over-developing and cutting down too many trees. We can build Gibbon reserves, plant more trees, and make laws to protect it.S2: I’ m going to talk about Saiga. Saiga is a member of Bovidae family. It is a type of graceful animal whose nose is rather large. Its coat is yellow brown but white on its stomach and turns grey in winter. The adult male Saiga has horns and can run very fast. It lives in deserts and semi-deserts mainly in small groups but sometimes in large groups and feeds on grass. It is native to the Zhungeer Basin but has been hunted for its horn for a long time, which is used as rare and expensive traditional Chinese medicine. So Saiga in the wild is almost extinct now. According to a recent survey from WWF, its number in Inner Mongolia has fallen down to 750 from 5,200 four years ago. I think we should make laws to prohibit trad ing its horns, and build reserves and national parks to protect it, call on volunteers and supporters to help and ask WWF for help.T: Well done! Have you heard of WWF?Ss: Yes / No.Step IV Homework1. Describe more animals with your partners.T: Get more information about WWF after class.品味人生1、不管鸟的翅膀多么完美,如果不凭借空气,鸟就永远飞不到高空。

安徽省淮北市杜集区2017高考英语一轮阅读理解选编六2016高考英语阅读理解——人物传记/故事类In Eastern Europe, blue jeans symbolize (象征) American culture and “the good life”. In Spain they are known as “cowboys”. In China, jeans are known as “niuzaiku”, also, “cowboy trousers”, which means they are connected with the American West cowboy culture and outdoor work.Jeans are usually made from denim (粗布), but may also be made from other materials. The earliest known cloth for jeans was a thick cotton cloth from the Indians. At first they were working clothes. They became popular among teenagers in the 1950s. Today jeans are a very popular form of casual wear around the world and come in many styles and colors.Jeans were first made in Genoa in Italy. The trousers were made for the Genoese navy (海军) because they needed trousers which could be worn wet or dry, and whose legs could be easily rolled up while the men were cleaning the ships. These jeans would be washed by pulling them in large fishing nets behind the ship, and the sea water would make them white.In the 1850s Levi Strauss, a business man living in San Francisco, was selling blue jeans under the “Levi’s” name to the coal workers of California.During World War II, the coal workers liked jeans very much because they were strong and did not tear easily. In the 1950s, jeans became popular with young people in the United States. Wearing of blue jeans by teenagers was the symbol of rebels (反叛者) in TV programmes and movies. Some cinemas and restaurants refused to let people in if they wore blue jeans. In the 1980s, jeans finally became high fashion clothing, when famous designers started making their own styles of jeans, with their own labels on them. Sales of jeans went up and up.【小题1】From the first paragraph we know that ________.A.cowboys wear jeans onlyB.cowboys live a good lifeC.American culture is cowboy cultureD.cowboy culture is usually related to the West of America【小题2】Jeans were first made in ______.A.Italy B.America C.Spain D.China【小题3】From Paragraph 4 we know that “Levi’s” was ____.A.the name of a workerB.the brand (名牌) of a kind of jeansC.the name of a kind of clothD.the nickname of a businessman【小题4】Why the people who wore blue jeans were refused to go into the cinema in the 1950s?

When I first heard about geocaching(地理寻宝),1 was skeptical. But the more I thought about it, the more it seemed like an interesting idea.I at least wanted to try it once.Having familiarized myself with how the game works,I set out in search of my first cache. My trip took me through a series of lively hutong(胡同),past a number of small temples, and right into the courtyard of a quiet youth hotel.I spent several minutes looking around, but couldn't find anything. Just before l was about to give up,I spotted a colorful object in the crack of a wall. Could it be the hidden cache?At that moment agroup of backpackers amved. According to the game's rules, people who are not in the game must not be allowed to find out about secret caches. So I pretended to make a phone call while waiting for them to leave. When the coast was clear,I grabbed the object. It was the cache! I opened it and pulled out a crumpled(皱的)sheet of paper with several names and celebratory messages written on it.I added my own and replaced the cache in its hiding place, ready for the next geocacher to find.It may seem like a simple game, but the idea that there are caches hidden all around us is exciting. Once you're hooked, it's easy to set yourself the goal of finding every single cache in a neighborhood or even an entire city. The real treasure, however, is not the cache itself, but the places it takes you to.Hunting for further caches has since introduced me to places which I didn't even know existed. Some are peaceful parks, while others are forgotten historical sites.A few caches have even been in places I passed regularly without giving them any thought. Now,Ifeel a much closer connection.1. What was the author's initial attitude to geocaching?A. He thought it interesting.B. He wanted to try it at once.C. He showed little interest in it.D. He found it unsuitable for him.2. Where did the author find the cache?A. In a hutong.B.In a temple.C.In a well.D.In a hotel.3.

In what way does the author benefit from geocaching?A. He's more familiar with the city.B.He has found much treasure.C.

【2016高考训练】The women’s college had a very small car park, and because several of the teachers and students, and many of the students’ boyfriends, had cars, it was often difficult to find a place to park. The head of the college, Miss Baker, had a special place in the car park for her own small car. There were white lines around it, and it had a small blackboard saying, “Reserved for Head of College.”One evening when Miss Baker got back to the college a few minutes before the time when all the students should be in, she found another car in her parking place. There were two persons in it, one of her girl students and a young man. Miss Baker knew that the young man would have to leave very soon, so she decided to ask him to move his car a bit, so that she could park hers in the proper place for the night before going to bed.As the young man’s car was close to the railing (栅栏), Miss Baker had to drive up beside it on the other side, where the girl was sitting. She came up on this side, opened her own window and tapped her horn (喇叭) lightly to draw attention to the fact that she was there. The girl, who had her head on the boy’s shoulder, looked round in surprise. She was even more surprised when she heard Miss Baker say, “Excuse me, but may I change places with you?”1.

There was a small car park in the college.D. the girl noticed her headmaster and felt greatly surprised.参考答案1—4、B C B D2016高考英语阅读理解(社会生活、说理议论)【2016·浙江】A“Did you hear what happened to Adam Last Friday?”Lindsey whipers to Tori.With her eyes shining,tori brags,“You bet I did,Sean told me two days ago.”Who are Lindsey and Tori talking about?It just happened to be yours truly,Adam Freedmam,I can tell you that what that what they are saying is (a) not nice and (b) not even true.Still,Lindsey and Tori aren’t very different from most students here at Linton Higt School,including me.Many of our conversations are gossip(闲话)。

I have noticed three effects of gossip:it can hurt people,itcan give gossipers a strange kind of satisfaction,and it can cause social pressures in a group. An important negative effect of gossip is that it can hurt the person being talked ually,gossip spreads information about a topic-breakups,trouble at home,even dropping out-that a person would rather keep secret.The more embarrassing or shameful the secret is,the juicier the gossip it makes.Probably the worst type of gossip is the absolute lie.People ofen think of gossipers as harmless,but cruel lies can cause pain.If we know that gossip can be harmful,then why do so many of us do it?Tht answer lies in another effect of gossip:the satisfaction it gives us.Sharing the latest rumor(传言)can make a person feel important because he or she knows something that others don’t.Similarly,hearing the latest rumor can make a person feel like part of the “in group.”In other words,gossip is satisfying because it gives people a sense of belonging or even superiority(优越感).Gossip also can have a third effect:it strengthens unwritten,unspoken rules about how people should act.Professor David Wilson explains that gossip is important in policing behaviors in a group.Translated into high school terms, this means that if everybody you hang around with is laughing at what John wore or what Jane said,then you can bet that wearing or saying something similar will get you th e same kind of negative attention.The do’s and don’ts conveyed through gossip will never show up in any student handbook.The effects of gossip vary depending on the situation.The next time you feel the urge to spread the latest news,thing about why you want to gossip and what effects your “juicy story”might have.41.The author uses a conversation at the beginning of the passage to .A.introduce a topicB.present an argumentC.describe the charactersD.clarify his writing purpose42.An important negative effects of gossip is that it.A.breaks up relationshipsB.embarrasses the listenerC.spreads information aroundD.causes unpleasant experiences43.In the auther’s opinion,many people like to gossip because it.A.gives them a feeling of pleasureB.help them to make more friendsC.makes them better at telling storiesD.enables them to meet important people44.Professor David Wilson think that gossip can .A.provide students with written rulesB.help people watch their own behaviorsC.force school to impove student handbooksD.attract the police’s attention to group behaviors45.What advice does the author give in the passage?A.Never become a gossiperB.Stay away from gossipersC.Don’t let gossip turn into liesD.Think twice before you gossip.【语篇解读】本文是一篇议论文。
