语鹅市安置阳光实验学校高考第二轮复习英语山东版专题升级训练十六阅读理解(五)第一节阅读理解AGrace Kane hangs onto an Olympic dream of clinging to a granite(花岗岩)wall by her fingertips 70 feet from the ground.The fearless girl is only 10,but already has scaled great heights in the sport of rock climbing.Last week,Kane won a bronze in the 11 and younger sport class at the USA Climbing Youth National Championships in Atlanta.She was the only competitor of the 31 there with no climbing coach or topflight facilities in which to train.Climbing will become an exhibition at the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympics in Brazil.The hope of enthusiasts is that the sport will gain full status in 2020.“I'm already training for that,” said Kane.“Climbing is my passion,my love,and I want to make something of it.”Her dad took her to climb rocks on her fourth birthday for the first time and today he can't keep up with her.“It's the freedom to let loose,” she said.“When I'm up there,I'm so focused and don't hear anything.I always feel comforted knowing people are supporti ng me.”The bronze in Atlanta qualified Kane for the USA team and November's International Championships in Ecuador.That's a trip she might have to miss because it's too expensive.Kane held a backyard music concert—she played the guitar and the piano and wrote inspirational songs—and raised $600 for her $1,500 trip to Atlanta.She's also been sponsored by a shoe company,but must rely heavily on donations from family and friends for travel expenses.Her mom Heather Kane said the family has chosen “to do what ever we need to help her achieve her goals”.One of Grace's biggest challenges is finding balance in her life.There's school,her music and church to fit around climbing.“Climbing is going to mean sacrificing things other kids might pursue,” Grace said.“But it doesn't bother me.It's like playing the piano;you can't take a break or you'll lose your touch.”1.What would be the best title of the passage?A.Rock Climbing Gains PopularityB.Grace Kane Likes ChallengesC.A Young Climber Follows Her DreamD.An Amazing Victory for a Young Rock Climber2.We can learn from the second paragraph that rock climbing ______. A.is not an exhibition at the Olympics nowB.is an official event at the Olympics nowC.is not open to childrenD.will gain full status in 20203.Which of the following is TRUE about Grace Kane?A.She is only interested in rock climbing.B.She is a girl with many talents.C.Rock climbing has affected her study.D.She has won gold medals in several matches.4.One of Grace's biggest challenges is to ______.A.find a capable coach for herB.get qualified for the USA teamC.raise enough money for International competitionsD.keep balance between rock climbing and other activities 5.What do we know about Grace Kane's parents?A.They are quite concerned about her studies.B.They regretted allowing her to try rock climbing.C.They will fully support their daughter's pursuit.D.They can fully afford her expenses in her competitions.B(2012山东桓台二中月考,D)“Our aim is to take our art to the world and make people understand what it is to move,” said David Belle,the founder of parkour(跑酷).Do you love running?It is a good exercise,yet many people find it boring.But what if making your morning jog a creative one?Like jumping from walls and over gaps,and ground rolls?Just like the James Bond in the movie Casino Royale?Bond jumps down from a roof to a windowsill(窗台)and then runs several blocks over obstacles on the way.It is just because of Bond's wonderful performances that the sport has become popular worldwide.Yes,that's parkour,an extreme street sport aimed at moving from one point to another as quickly as possible,getting over all the obstacles in the path using only the abilities of the human body.Parkour is considered an extreme sport.As its participants dash around a city,they may jump over fences,run up walls and even move from rooftop to rooftop.Parkour can be just as exciting and charming as it sounds,but its participants see parkour much more than that.Overcoming all the obstacles on the course and in life is part of the philosophy(理念)behind parkour.This is the same as life.You must determine your destination,go straight,jump over all the barriers as if in parkour and never fall back from them in your life,to reach the destination successfully.A parkour lover said,“I love parkour because its philosophy has become my life,my way to do everything.”Another philosophy we've learnt from parkour is freedom.It can be done by anyone,at any time,anywhere in the world.It is a kind of expression of trust in yourself that you earn energy and confidence.6.Parkour has become popular throughout the world because of ______.A.its founder,David Belle B.the film,Casino RoyaleC.its risks and tricks D.the varieties of participants 7.The underlined word “obstacles” in Para graph 2 is closest in meaning to “______”.A.streets B.objectsC.barriers D.roofs8.Which of the following is true of parkour?A.It challenges human abilities. B.It is a good but boring sport.C.It needs special training. D.It is a team sport.9.As its participants move around a city,______.A.they can ask for help B.they may choose to escapeC.they should run to extremes D.they must learn to survive 10.Which of the following is the philosophy of parkour?A.Sports and extremes. B.Excitement and popularity.C.Dreams and success. D.Determination and freedom.CSchools are almost all connected to the Internet.But some have more technology,and use it more,than others.For example,some schools use computers for activities like video conferencing,to bring the world into the classroom.And some classrooms are equipped with things like a Smart Board,a kind of interactive whiteboard.Interactive whiteboards are large displays for presentations.They connect to a computer and can operateby touch.They can be used for documents or writing or to project video.Some teachers are trying creative new ways to teach with devices like iPods and mobile phones.But educators say the most important thing,as always,is the content.Yet technology can have special importance in some cases.Cosmobot is a therapy(治疗)robot.It stands about half a meter tall and has a blue body and a friendly face with big eyes.One child who works with it is sixyearold Kevin Fitzgerald.Kevin has developmental dyspraxia;he has difficulty moving his mouth and tongue.He works with Carole SemangoSprouse as he interacts with the Cosmobot during therapy for his condition.Here,he uses a set of buttons attached to a computer to make the silent robot move forward,backward or around in circles.Kevin's mother thinks the robot has had a calming influence,helping her son get along better with his friends.Cosmobot was developed by Anthro Tronix.Corinna Lathan started the company ten years ago to work with children with cerebral palsy,Down's syndrome,autism and other developmental disabilities.Children become friends with the robot,she says.That can have a big effect on their behavior,helping them work harder and longer in therapy sessions.Corinna Lathan is currently working with a British company to develop other socially helpful robots.She says they are still considered research tools in the United States,and not used as much as in places like Britain and Japan.But she hopes to change that.11.It's known from the text that ______.A.schools have easy access to the Internet todayB.new technology is seldom applied to teachingC.the Internet is of equal importance in schoolsD.using computers for activities is laborsaving12.Which of the following is NOT right about Smart Board?A.It's a kind of teaching facility.B.It can be used to project video.C.It's a display for presentation.D.It's not easy to be connected to computers.13.What's “dyspraxia” according to Para.5?A.Speech barrier. B.Movement disorder.C.Visual impairment. D.Loss of memory.14.Which of the following is RIGHT according to the text?A.Cosmobot is designed to play with.B.Cosmobot is costly and not user friendly.C.Cosmobot can be controlled by a computer.D.Anthro Tronix is a designer of a certain company.15.What can we learn from Corinna Lathan?A.She's employed by a British company.B.Cosmobot is popular around the world.C.She wants to make previous products widespread.D.IPods and mobile phones are valued in class.DLife comes in a package.This package includes happiness and sorrow,failure and success,hope and despair.Life is a learningprocess.Experiences in life teach us new lessons and make us a better person.With each passing day we learn to handle various situations.LoveLove plays a pivotal role in our life.Love makes you feel wanted.Without love a person could go hayward and also become cruel and ferocious.In the early stage of our life,our parents are the ones who show us with unconditional love and care;they teach us about what is right and wrong,good and bad.But we always tend to take this for granted.It is only after marriage and having kids that a person understands and becomes sensitive to others' feelings.Kids make a person responsible and mature and help us to understand life better.Happiness and SorrowMaterialistic happiness is short lived,but happiness achieved by bringing a smile on others' face gives a certain level of fulfillment.Peace of mind is the main link to happiness.No mind is happy without peace.We realize the true worth of happiness when we are in sorrow.Sorrow is basically due to death of a loved one,failure and despair.But these things are temporary and pass away.Failure and SuccessFailure is the path to success.It helps us to touch the sky,teaches us to survive and shows us a specific way.Success brings in money,fame,pride and selfrespect.Here it becomes very important to keep our head on our shoulder.The only way to show our gratitude to God for bestowing success on us is by being humble,modest,courteous and respectful tothe less fortunate ones.Hope and DespairHope is what keeps life going.Parents always hope their children will do well.Hope makes us dream.Hope builds in patience.Life teaches us not to despair even in the darkest hour,because after every night there is a day.Nothing remains the same.We have only one choice to keep moving on in life and be hopeful.Life teaches us not to regret over yesterday,for it has passed and is beyond our control.Tomorrow is unknown,for it could either be bright or dull.So the only alternative is to work hard today,so that we will enjoy a better tomorrow.16.In the passage,the author compares life to ______.A.a package B.joy and sorrowC.failure and success D.hope and despair17.In which section can readers probably read the passage?A.Opinions. B.Politics.C.Education. D.Lifestyles.18.How is the passage organized?A.In order of rules. B.In order of frequency.C.By making comparison. D.In order of importance.19.What's the general meaning of the last sentence of the whole passage?A.If you work hard,you'll have a better life in the future.B.When choosing between “today” and “tomorrow”,you'd better enjoy tomorrow.C.What you only can choose is to work hard today rather than tomorrow.D.Enjoying a better tomorrow is your only choice.20.What's the purpose of the passage?A.To encourage people to love each other.B.To tell people how to deal with happiness and sorrow.C.To remind people of keeping having a beautiful dream.D.To give readers some information about life.第二节阅读表达You may not realize it,but you are doing more than just studying when you are at school.The school is also the place where youlearn______.But this is not always easy.What can you do if you just don't like one of your classmates?If you discover that you have problems getting along with yourclassmates or friends,the most important thing to learn is tolerance.Tolerance is the ability to realize and respect the differences in others.We can not change the way that other people do things,so it is important to learn to live happily with them.Tolerance will make everyone get on better with each other.Knowing others constantly makes us understand others' differences.Something different does not exactly mean that it is bad.Tolerance teaches us to keep an even temper and an open mind.You need to remember an old saying,“Treat others how you want to be treated.” You would like to be treated kindly by your classmates,so it is important to treat them kindly too.If you tolerate something,it does not mean that you have to like it.No one is asking you to change who you are or what you believe in.Tolerance just means that you should respect the differences in others and not try to make them change.It is important to practice tolerance,because it will make everyone's life easier.Learn to accept people for their different abilities and interests.The world is very different,and practicing tolerance in your own school and city can help make a difference.1.What is the main idea of the text?(within 10 words)________________________________________________________________ ________2.Which sentence in the text can be replaced by the following one?Getting to know someone may help you understand why they do things differently.________________________________________________________________ ________3.Please fill in the blank in the first paragraph with proper words or phrases to complete the sentence.(within 10 words)________________________________________________________________ ________4.Why is tolerance important?How can you get along well with your classmates?(within 30 words)________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ________5.Translate the underlined sentence in the last paragraph into Chinese.________________________________________________________________ ________参考答案第一节A1. 答案:C解析:主旨大意题。

2019高考英语二轮阅读理解精选59及解析

2021高考英语二轮阅读理解精选〔59〕及解析ASome Wise Lessons That I Wish I Knew When I Was Younger 1. Don’t worry about what other people think of you .If you’re wasting too much time seeking respect or approval from others,then you won’t have time to acchieve all that you desire. Everyone has an opinion, but in reality other’s opinions of you are based more on their history and observations than anything you’re actually doing. So while it’s good to ask for feedback , rely on your own assessment of you rather than others.2. Believe in yourself .If you do not have confidence in your own value, then nobody else will either. You do not have to be able to see the end zone. Just because you aren’t able to see where you might go and how you might succeed, that doesn’t mean it will not happen. And just because you may have made mistakes and have a string of failures behind you does not mean that you can’t achieve your goals in the future.3. Don’t burn your bridges .You never know when a former boss, colleague or business partner may come in handy. Try to part on goodterms, stay on good terms and never gossip (说三道四) about former connections. Keep connections on all levels. A wide pool of friends and connections of all kinds will provide a wealthy resource of ideas and support as you go forward in life. (The exception would be dishonest, disrespectful or offensive people. Cut them loose!)4. ____________________We have so much to acchieve and it feels as though we have to be in a hurry to get there. But you do not have to do it all at once. In fact, if you do, you will, at best not have time to enjoy it and at worst burn out and damage your health and relationships. Slow down and take one thing at a time. Yes, make plans, but don’t be in such a rush.56. According to the writer , if others don’t think well of you , ______ .A. you should work harder to change their opinionsB. you should not waste time achieving what you wantC. you should not care too much about it and trust yourselfD. you should try to get more feedback from them57. What does the underlined word “ it 〞refer to ( Para. 2 )A. The end zone.B. Success.C. Your goals.D. Confidence.58. What does the third paragraph tell usA. Wealthy friends can give us inspiration and support .B. We should befriend those people who can help us .C. We should keep our former relationships .D. We should make friends with people of all kinds .59. Which of the following is the most suitable for the blank in Paragraph 4A. Look for the good in life .B. Don’t achieve y our goals in haste(匆忙) .C. Take things slow whatever you do .D. Make plans for your life .BUntil last spring, Nia Parker and the other kids in her neighborhood went to school on Bus 59. But as fuel prices rose, the school district needed to find a way to cut its transportation costs. So the school’s busing company redrew its route map, canceling Nia’s bus. Now Nia and her neighbors travel the half mile to school via a “walking school bus〞—a group of kids, supervised (监护) by an adult or two, who make the walk together.Many parents are delighted to see their kids walking to school, partly because many did so themselves. According toa 1979 survey, nearly half of school kids walked or biked to school, compared with only 16 percent in 2021. Modern parents have been unwilling to let kids walk to school for fear of traffic, crime or simple bullying, but with organized adult supervision, those concerns have reduced.Schools and busing companies are finding other ways to save money. In rural areas where busing is a must, some schools have even chosen four-day school weeks. Busing companies instruct drivers to cancel extra stops from routes and to turn off the engine while idling(挂空挡). They are also using computer software to determine the most fuel-efficient ro utes, which aren’t always the shortest ones.There could be disadvantages, however, to the busing cutbacks. If every formerly bused student begins walking to school, it’s an environmental win—but if too many of their parents decide to drive them instead, the overall carbon footprint can grow. Replacing buses with many more parent-driven cars can also increase safety risks. A 2021 report concluded students are 13 times safer on a school bus than in a passenger car, since buses have fewer accidents and withstand (经受住) them better due to their size. And some students complain about the long morning hikes,particularly when the route contains a really big hill.60.According to the passage, how does Nia Parker go to school nowA. By bus.B. By car.C. On foot.D. By bike.61. In regards to walking to school, modern parents seem much concerned with the _____.A. safety of their kidsB. kids’ physical strengthC. time spent on the wayD. changes in the route62. To save money, some schools choose to _____.A. shorten the school weekB. take the shortest routesC. stop using school busesD. use fuel-efficient buses63. Busing cutbacks may lead to _____.A. fewer complaints about long morning hikesB. more students taking public transportationC. an increase in carbon dioxide emissionsD. a decrease in the safety of school busesCIt's still there, the Vietnamese school where my brother and I used to go. Even with a new coat of paint and the high wire fence, the school I knew ten years ago remains the same.Every day at 5 p.m., instead of flying kites with our friends, my brother and I had to go to Vietnamese school. No amount of kicking, screaming, or arguing could stop my mother, who was determined to have us learn the language of our culture. She held us by the collar and walked with us the seven long, hilly blocks from our home to school, leaving our tearful faces before the front of the school.W e all sat in little chairs in a big empty room, which had a slight smell of old clothes that had been stored for a long time.I hated that smell. There was a stage far to the right, with an American flag on one side and the flag of the Republic of Vietnam on the other side.Although the school mainly taught language - speaking, reading, dictation - the lessons always began with an exercise in politeness. With the entrance of the teacher, the best student would tap a bell and everyone would get up, and say in Vietnamese, "How are you, teacher"The language always made me embarrassed. More oftenthan not, I had tried to separate myself from the loud voice that followed me whenever I went to the American supermarket outside our area. The voice belonged to my grandmother, a small old woman who could shout louder than anyone on the street. Her Vietnamese was quick, it was loud, it was not beautiful.In our area, the comings and goings of hundreds of Vietnamese on their daily tasks sounded crazy. I did not want to be thought of as being mad, as talking stupid. When I spoke English, people nodded at me, smiled and encouraged me. Even Vietnamese people would laugh and say that I'd do well in life.My brother was even stricter than I about speaking English. He was especially cruel towards my mother, scolding her for her poor English. Bits of Vietnamese were often mixed in her conversation.After two years of struggle, I finally divorced my culture. I was permitted to stop Vietnamese school. I thought of myself as American. At last, I thought I was one of you; I wasn't one of them.Sadly, I am only an American.64. What can be learned from the passageA. The author’s brother liked learning Vietnamese.B. The author’s mother taught him English at ho me.C. The author didn’t like learning Vietnamese when he was young.D. The author’s mother put her sons in a language school in Vietnam.65. The author often felt embarrassed because ________.A. his Vietnamese was not beautiful enoughB. he could not fly kites like other kids at schoolC. his grandma spoke Vietnamese loudly in publicD. his mother always treated him rudely in the market66. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that the author feels ________.A. frightenedB. peacefulC. satisfiedD. regretful67. What’s the theme of the passageA. It is important to adapt to a new environment.B.It is important to appreciate your own culture.C. It is important to remember your childhood.D. It is important to learn a foreign language.DIt’s 10 pm. You may not know where your child is, butthe chip(芯片) does.The chip will also know if your child has fallen and needs immediate help. Once doctors arrive, the chip will also be able to tell them which drugs are not suitable for little Johnny or Janie. At the hospital, the chip will tell doctors his or her complete medical history. And of course, when you arrive to pick up your child, settling the hospital bill with your health insurance policy will be a simple matter of waving your own chip-the one embedded〔植入〕in your hand.To some, this may sound unbelievable. But the technology for such chips is no longer the stuff (东西) of science fiction. And it may soon offer many other benefits besides locating(定位) lost children or elderly patients. It could be used as credit cards and people won’t have to carry wallets anymore.On the other hand, some are already wondering what this sort of technology may do to the sense of personal privacy and liberty.“An y technology of this kind could result in improper use of personal privacy,〞says Lee Tien, senior staff attorney for the Electronic Frontier Foundation. “If a kid can be tracked, do you want other people to be able to track your kid It’s adouble-edged sword.〞Applied Digital Solutions, Inc. in Palm Beach, Florida, says it has recently applied to the Food and Drug Administration for permission to begin testing its device in humans. About the size of a grain of rice, the microchip can be encoded (编码) with bits of information and embedded in humans under a layer (表层)of skin. When scanned by a nearby reader, the embedded chip gives the data.Most embedded chip designs are so-called passive chips, which give information only when scanned by a nearby reader. But active chips---such as the proposed〔被提议〕Digital Angel of the future---will give out information all the time. And that means designers will have to develop some sort of power source that can provide a continuous source of energy, yet be small enough to be embedded with the chips.In addition to technical problems, many suspect that all sorts of legal and privacy issues would have to be cleared as well.68. By using the example in the first two paragraphs, the author wants to tell us that .A. chips are usually used to locate lost childrenB. chips are more convenient than credit cardsC. chips will soon be useful in many aspects of daily livesD. chips will bring out the issue of abuse of personal privacy69. What is the attitude of Lee Tien towards the chipsA. Negative.B. Indifferent(冷漠旳).C. Arbitrary(随意旳).D. Cautious.70. Which of the following statements about Digital Angel is NOT trueA. Digital Angel will include at least a chip and a power source.B. Digital Angel will soon be produced and replace passive chips.C. Digital Angel will be embedded in humans under a layer of skin.D. Digital Angel will give information without being scanned by a reader.71. It is indicated in the passage that chip producers have toconsider the following issuesEXCEPT .A. financial problemsB. technical problemsC. legal problemsD. privacy problemsEWe find that bright children are rarely held back by mixed ability teaching. On the contrary, both their knowledge and experience are enriched. We feel that there are many disadvantages in streaming(把……按能力分班) pupils. It does not take into account the fact that children develop at different rates. It can have a bad effect on both the bright and the not-so-bright child. After all,it can be quite discouraging to be at the bottom of the top grade!Besides, it is rather unreal to grade pupils just according to their intellectual(智力旳) ability. This is only one aspect of their total personality. We are concerned to develop the abilities of all our pupils to the full, not just their academic ability. We also value personal qualities and social skills, and we find that mixed-ability teaching contributes to all these aspects of learning.In our classrooms, we work in various ways. The pupils often work in groups: this gives them the opportunity to learn to co-operate, to share, and to develop leadership skills. They also learn how to deal with personal problems as well as learning how to think, to make decisions, to analyze and evaluate, and to communicate effectively in order to have the ability to become leaders. The pupils learn from each other aswell as from the teacher.Sometimes the pupils work in pairs;sometimes they work on individual (个人旳) tasks , and they can do this at their own speed. They also have some formal class teaching when this is suitable. We encourage our pupils to use the library, and we teach them the skills they need in order to do this efficiently. An advanced pupil can do advanced work:it does not matter what age the child is. We expect our pupils to do their best, not their least, and we give them every encouragement to attain this goal.72. We can know from the passage that the author’ s attitude towards “mixed-ability teaching〞is______.A. approvingB. disapprovingC. questioningD. inactive73. The underlined words “held back〞in Paragraph 1 probably means “______〞.A. drawn to their studiesB. forced to study in the lower classesC. made to remain in the same classesD. prevented from advancing74. Which of the following is NOT MENTIONED in the third paragraphA. Pupils also learn to develop their reasoning abilities.B. Pupils also learn how to participate in teaching activitiesC. Group work gives pupils the chance to learn to work together with others.D. Group work supply pupils with the chance to learn to be good organizers.75. The author’s purpose in writing this passage is to ______.A. offer advice on the proper use of the libraryB. recommend pair work and group work for classroom activitiesC. argue for teaching bright and not-so-bright pupils in the same classD. tell us the importance of proper formal classroom teaching参考答案56-59 CBCB 60-63 CA A C 64-67 CCDB 68-71 CDBA 72-75 ADBC。

★A阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳答案.An 11-month-old boy died in Georgia over the weekend when his grandparents forgot him in the car for two hours, according to police.Walker County Sheriff Steve Wilson said the boy’s grandparents were baby-sitting Saturday while the mother, who works the night shift, slept at home.According to Wilson, Kyle and Meta Hendershot took the baby to church in Chickamauga along with another one of their adult daughters and another grandchild, but when they returned home, Wilson said they forgot him in the car.That was at around 3 p.m., a time when the northwest Georgia heat hit 90 degrees. In those conditions, Wilson said "temperature in a closed vehicle can reach as high as 131 to 172 degrees in as little as 15 minutes."It was only when the boy's mother woke up and asked where her son was "that the grandparents realized that the child wasn't (inside)," according to Wilson. Despite attempts by the mother and then first responders to revive the child with CPR, he was pronounced dead at the hospital. No charges have been filed, but the death is being investigated by the Walker County Sheriff's Office, according to Wilson.The infant was the 19th child to die in the United States in 2015 because of being left inside a hot car, according to the Department of Meteorology & Climate Science at San Jose State University in California. Widespread attention was brought to the issue in 2014 after a Georgia father spent an entire day at the office while his nearly 2-year-old son was still strapped inside his car seat. Justin Ross Harris has pleaded not guilty to murder charges in the death of 22-month-old Cooper Harris.1. What was the baby’s mother doing when her child was taken out?A. She was having a rest.B. She was working the night shift.C . She was meeting police.D . She was staying in church.2. How many people go to the church together?A . 2B . 3C . 4D . 53. What caused the death of the baby?A .The hunger.B . The illness.C . The great heat.D . The lack of water.4.

Those with greater levels of internet addiction are more likely to get ill, than those who spend fewer hours online.Researchers at the universities of Swansea and Milan believe the reason lies in the fact that people with an internet addiction have weakened immune systems. They said the lack of communication with other people and less time spent outside exposing themselves to germs played a role.Past studies have also found people who spend more time online experience greater sleep disorder, have worse eating habits, engage in less exercise and tend to smoke and drink more alcohol. These behaviors can harm their immune system and increase chance to diseases.Professor Phil Read said, “We found that the impact of the internet on people's health was independent of a range of other factors, like depression, sleep deprivation, and loneliness, which are associated with high levels of internet use and also with poor health.”Researchers surveyed 500 people aged 18 to 101 years old. They found that thosewho reported problems with much use of the internet also suffered more cold and flu symptoms than those who spent less time online. Around 40 per cent of the sample reported mild or worse levels of internet addiction — a figure which did not differ between males and females. People who had greater levels of internet addiction had around 30 per cent more cold and flu symptoms than those with less internet usage.And researchers found people who are addicted to the internet may suffer from great stress when they are disconnected from the net. This cycle of stress and relief associated with internet addiction may lead to changes in levels of cortisol, a hormone that impacts on the immune system.1. What did researchers at the universities of Swansea and Milan find?A. An internet addiction makes people stronger.B. The lack of communication helps people.C . Less being exposed to germs harms people.D . The immune system improves by itself.2. Which of the following is NOT the result of high levels of internet use?A . Mental depression.B . Sleep deprivation.C . Feeling lonely.D . Stopping smoke.3. How many people surveyed suffered from internet addiction?A . 500.B . 300.C . 200.D . 150.4. How do addicted people feel when they are stopped from computer?A . They would feel stressed.B . They would feel relieved.C . The would feel honoured.D . They would feel confused.5. What is the best title of the passage?A . How being addicted to the internet could make you sickB . What the young people can get from the internet aroundC . Which is the best way to stop people from surfing netsD . When the immune systems can become better and better★C阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳答案.Do you find yourself reaching for just one more cup of coffee to get through the day? Are you tired of being tired? Instead of relying on things like coffee or sugar for energy, get happy by eating more foods that give you energy through nourishment. Here are 4 foods that can help improve your energy levels.Hemp SeedsA complete protein, rich in fiber and omega-3s, hemp is a great low-glycemic addition to any diet. The glycemic index (GI) is a measurement of how fast the carbohydrates in food are broken down into glucose and how much it will affect your blood sugar. Fiber, fat and protein all lower the GI of a food, which is why hemp seeds (along with nuts, seeds, whole grains and legumes) are low-glycemic. Look for hemp seed oil for salad dressing, and hemp seeds to be added into salads.Soaked AlmondsRaw almonds are nutrient dense, and soaking them unlocks higher nutrition potential. Soaking increases vitamin levels and removes the enzyme that slow down digestion. I soak my almonds in water overnight (at least eight hours) and then dry them.QuinoaIt is 20-percent protein, making it a balanced source of carbohyd rates. It’s gluten-free(无谷蛋白) and rich in B vitamins, which help change carbohydrates into energy in your body. Even if you feel like you’re too busy to make homemade meals, quinoa is a fast food that cooks in less than 15 minutes.Green TeaCaffeine from green tea feels steadier and less sharp than the spike and crash with caffeine from coffee. This is likely because green tea contains L-theanine, a kind of acid found in tea that helps promote relaxation.1. What is the aim of the writer to write the passage?A. Introducing four foods to make people energetic.B . Finding reasons why people need some coffee.C . Reaching for something to get through the day.D . Eating more foods to get more nourishments.2. How can hemp seeds be prepared?A. They can be cooked with the oil.B. They can be eaten with the nuts.C. The can be mixed with the salad.D . They can be used to measure GI.3. Why did the writer get Almonds soaked?A . It helped increase the enzyme.B . It helped release the nutrition.C . It helped make digestion slow.D . It helped lock nutrient dense.4. Which ingredient in green tea makes people feel relaxed?A . The omega.B . The enzyme.C. The carbohydrate.D . The L-theanine.5. From the fourth paragraph we can know _____.A. Quinoa is rich in proteinB . Quinoa includes much fiberC . Quinoa is easily cookedD . Quinoa has less sharp flavor★D阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳答案.Author Michael Pollan may have one of the hardest jobs: trying to help people make better food choices while battling junk-food marketers’ attempts to undermine his advice. The major problem he faces, as he told The Washington Post, is that marketers take his rules and use them against him.Buy products with five ingredients or fewer. Pollan says he and others have repeated the rule, “Don’t buy anything with more than five ingredients,” in hopes that people will purchase fresh produce and lean meats. Feeding off of this advice, though, Haagen Dazs started its five campaign. While the ice creams in this line have only five ingredients, those ingredients are high in sugar, fat, and calories. Plus, says Pollan, “They didn’t change anything…it was the same five ingredients they had before.” Pollan also discusses a commercial in which a woman compares Pringles to Tostitos, choosing the Tostitos chips because they have fewer ingredients. Both, however, are high-calorie, high-fat foods. The result is that the consumer is completely confused by clever marketingShop the edges of the supermarket. The advice to shop around the edges of the supermarket is supposed to lead shoppers toward fresh produce and lean meats, avoiding the fat processed foods in the middle aisles. But now, claims Pollan, makers of packaged food want to sell their products in that part of the supermarket as well.Supermarkets can make money by selling a variety of foods. “They can make as much money selling fresh produce as they can packaged goods,” Pollan says. Don’t buy anything advertised in commercials. “Anybody with that kind of marketing budget is selling packaged foods,” Pollan says.Pollan saw recently that Americans spend about 7 percent of their income on food. By contrast, China spends 33 percent of its income on food, France, 13.5 percent, and Japan, 14.2 percent. Americans seem to have this incapacity to spend more on food. He thinks it’s an enormous challenge. It wasn’t always this cheap. This was a matter of agriculture and technological breakthroughs.1. The underlined word “undermine” in the first paragra ph probably means _______.A . weakenB . strengthenC . enrichD . support2. Why did Pollan suggest people buy products with five ingredients or fewer?A. He wanted people to buy healthy foods.B . He wanted people to buy nutritious foods.C . He wanted people to buy packaged foods.D . He wanted people to buy colorful foods.3. When Pollan thought of the ice creams, he must feel ______.A . calmB . upsetC . curiousD . considerate4. What does the clever marketing do in order t o deal with Pollan’s strategies?A . They change the way of making food.B . They use fewer kinds of materials.C . They produce foods in many factories.D . They make the consumers believe them.5. According to the article, people can reduce the price foods by ______.A . shopping the edges of the supermarketB. buying a variety of goods in supermarketC. avoiding buying advertised foodsD. improving agricultural technology【答案】★A 1-5 ADCAA★B 1-5 CDCAA★C1-5 ACBDC★D1-5AABBD阅读理解(健康为话题)专项训练(五)2022届高考英语复习。

Doctors say anger can be an extremely damaging emotion, unless you learn how to deal with it. They warn that anger can lead to heart disease, stomach problems, headaches, emotional problems and possibly cancer.___16___ Some people express anger openly in a calm reasonable way. Others burst with anger, and scream and yell. But other people keep their anger inside. They can not or will not express it. This is called repressing anger.For years many doctors thought that repressing anger was more dangerous to a person’s health than expressing it. They said that when a person is angry, the brain releases the same hormones (荷尔蒙). They speed the heart rate, raise blood pressure, or sugar into the blood, etc. ___17___Some doctors say that both repressing and expressing anger can be dangerous. They believe that those who express anger violently may be more likely to develop heart disease, and they believe that those who keep anger inside may face a greater danger of high blood pressure.__18___ They say the first step is to admit that you are angry and to recognize the real cause of the anger, then decide if the cause is serious enough to get angry about. If it is, they say, “___19___ Wait until your anger has cooled down and you are able to express yourself calmly and reasonably.”Doctors say that a good way to deal with anger is to find humor in the situation that has made you angry. ___20___A. In general the person feels excited and ready to actB. They said that laughter is much healthier than anger.C. Expressing anger violently is more harmful than repressing itD. Anger may cause you a cancer.E. Do not express your anger while angry.F. Anger is a normal emotion that we all feel from time to time.G.

the thousands of editions,published in numerous countries,and dating back to the first issue in February 1922,is always a task we enjoy doing.This collection offers a wide range of different subjects.Each one we hope will inform,delight,amuse and perhaps even confound(使惊讶) our readers:from stepping inside the French artistPierre-Auguste Renoir’s inner circle of friends(‘Renoir’s Invitation To A Party’,page 90),to finding peace from depression in a solitary walk on the beach(‘The Day At The Beach’,page 110)and meeting a cat who held a family together as they began to fall apart(‘A Pretty Good Teacher,For A Cat’,page 22).My favourite article,‘Exploits Of Charles’(page 104),is written by a mother about the increasingly odd behaviour of a little boy in her young son’s kindergarten class.What a handful thi s young Charles proves to be.Hispoormother!,she thinks to herself.I’m certain you’ll enjoy this amusing and relatable account of a small boy adjusting to his new classmates and teacher.With an endless supply of wonderful stories,surprising insights and ex periences to share,Reader’sDigest remains a place to find fresh perspectives—and a great read.Happy

seriously.She had been teaching for a long time and I was as afraid of her as anyone,including the boys who were typically naughty in the back row.But I also had a life outside of school and had just discovered cheap objects for pranks.One such prop(道具) had two parts:an ink bottle painted to look as though it had overturned,and a piece of shiny black metal shaped like a pool.Of all the people I could have tricked,uneiss Baugh.At the beginning of the class,I opened her book and placed the props on one of the pages.Then I waited for the fun.When Miss Baugh saw the bottle and the spilled ink,she let out a little cry and looked for something to wipe up the ink with.The trick had succeeded beyond my expectations.But then I suddenly knew I had no control over what would happen neiss Baugh tried to remove the ink with a paper towel,she discovered it was just a piece of black metal.She picked it up,her eyes sweeping the classroom with a deadly gaze.Then came the question:“Who did this?”After some hesitation,I raised my hand.Miss Baugh fie,and my classmates.And then,most unexpectedly,she laughed.“Well,it certa inly fooled me!” she said.She returned the props to me,andfor a few seconds a sweet little aged lady appeared right where Miss Baugh stood.We got back to having a class.But something had changed for me.I began to realize that,if someone like Miss Baugh had a warm heart beneath that crusty surface,then other crusty people would probably do,too.That may have been the most valuable lesson I learned.4.Which words best describe Miss Baugh according to paragraph 1?A.Serious and experienced.B.Easy-going and selfless.C.Naughty and demanding.D.Scary and narrow-minded.5.What does the underlined word “pranks” probably mean in paragraph

changed.B.Crusty people may be friendly to others.C.Crusty people are difficult to get along with.D.Crusty people are sensitive to others’ feelings.C(广东茂名二模)Do you often compare yourself to other people?Comparisons can help to make decisions and motivate you but they can also pull you into a comparison trap.Whether it’s the number of goals you’ve scored at football or how many books you’ve read,it’s easy to compare yourself to someone else.Scientists say it’s a natural behaviour that helps humans learn from each other,live happily together and achieve more.Although comparing can be good for you,it’s not always helpful and you can find yourself stuck in a comparison trap.Thisis when you always measure yourself against others and base your feelings on how well they seem to be doing.Becky Goddard-Hill is a child therapist (someone who helps children understand their feelings) and author of CreateYourOwnConfidence.She says that comparisons can make us feel good and bad about ourselves.“Comparing up” means seeing someone doing better than you and using that to inspire yourself to aim higher and try harder.However,Goddard-Hill says,“Sometimes it can make you feel rubbish about yourself and knock your confidence.”“Comparing down” is when you see so meone who seems like they’re not doing as well as you.This might make you feel you’re doing well,says Goddard-Hill,but it can also stop you wanting to improve.If your feelings depend on what other people aredoing,“Surround yourself with cheerleaders,” su ggests Goddard-Hill.Notice how people make you feel and spend time with friends who celebrate your strengths rather than compare themselves to you.If you follow social media accounts that make you feel youare failing in any way,unfollow them.“Find ones th at make you laugh or show you lovely places instead,” she says.Finally,focus on your own achievements and how you can improve.“The best person you can compete with is yourself,” says Goddard-Hill.8.How does a comparison trap affect us?A.It makes us focus on our own behaviour.B.It stops us from learning from each other.C.It prevents us from living happily together.D.It bases our feelings on others’ achievements.9.What’s true about “Comparing up” and “Comparing down”?A.Both of them usually enhance our confidence.B.Both of them have advantages and disadvantages.C.The former is positive while the latter is negative.D.The former makes us feel good while the latter makes us feel bad.10.What does Goddard-Hill suggest?A.Aiming to be our best.B.Trying to be the best.C.Trying to be a cheerleader.D.Valuing someone else’s achievements.11.In which section of the magazine can you find the passage?A.Achievement.B.Entertainment.C.Health.D.Politics.D(安徽安庆二模)Homemade biodiesel (生物柴油) helps you speed past the gas station towards fuel independence.Our expert outlines processing used cooking oil in a small DIY plant.If you’re guiding your household towards a moreself-sufficient lifestyle,maybe you’d like to add do-it-yourself fuel to your list of goals.Biodiesel can be created from waste vegetable oil or animal fats,which you can collect free from restaurants,or you can grow soybeans (大豆) to press your own oil.Process the oil with a couple of chemicals to produce homemade fuel that can run any device—including pickups,cars,and home heating systems.First,find a reliable source of raw material.Try sourcing used cooking oil from restaurants,functional food companies.If you’re planning to sell your biodiesel,begin by analyzing the available raw material supply,and make plans to size your operation accordingly.Next,build your plant,sized to your raw material supply.A small family operation can fit in the corner of a garage,within the footprint of a single parking space.Allow enough space for a water heater,a tank for storing your incoming feedstock,and a tank for washing your fuel.For starters aim to line up enough feedstock to meet your family’s fuel requirements.If you’re collecting used cooking oil fromrestaurants,eaterial you gather will be water and bits of fried food.Water is not your friend when making biodiesel,so you’ll need to remove it by heating the oil and allowing the contaminants (污染物) to settle to the bottom before you pour the oil of the top.You’ll have to make a plan for getting rid of the oily wastewater.Home biodiesel production is not without risks.Making your own fuel will require great attention to detail and safety.Now you know the basics of how to make biodiesel,but you’ll need to research carefully before you begin production.12.Where can you get the materials of biodiesel?A.Oil plants.B.Varied restaurants.C.Abandoned garages.D.Local companies.13.What is the author’s attitude to the use of biodiesel?A.Tolerant.B.Positive.C.Unwilling.D.Opposed.14.What can we infer about biodiesel production from the last two paragraphs?A.It needs enough water.B.It goes without any risks.C.It requires little attention.D.It needs to be improved.15.What is the tee research on biodiesel.B.An eportance of biodiesel.D.One way to make biodiesel.Ⅱ.七选五(安徽淮南二模)Raising children is limitlessly rewarding but no doubt challenging.Here are some tips for raising a happy,healthy and responsible child.1 Studies find that kids who have televisions in their bedrooms are more likely to be overw eight.When a TV is in a child’s bedroom,you have no control over what he’s watching,and you don’t have any opportunities for family bonding time—when everyone lies onto the sofa to watch a favorite show.Get them used to doing chores from an early age.We all know a parent who still makes her high school daughter’s lunch every day.2 By the time your two-year-old begins talking,he’s old enough to start helping around the house.3 If you really want to teach your teen about money,then stop handing over t he credit card and the “allowance”.Instead,put your kid on a budget,open a checking account for him or her,and letyour teen really learn how to manage money.Tell your kid that all clothing,movies,entertainment,fast food,and cell phone bills will come out of his or her checking account which you fund. 4 Just make sure you also set up a savings account for your teen and insist that at least one third of any savings or money from you be put away.Imagine the future with your children. 5 By age ten,kids are old enough to start looking ahead and figure out the value of an education.Studies find that teens who can imagine themselves with a future are less likely to do those things that destroy a future.A.Get the TV out of the bedroom.B.Don’t find yourself i n this situation!C.Teach them how checking accounts work.D.Start an activity that you can do with your teen.E.If your son or daughter has a job,then cut back the amount.F.You reduce the risk that your child will engage in such behavior.G.It’s never to o early to begin talking to your child about his or her future.答案:满分练(一)
