2020全国卷2 阅读理解C 重难点赏析CWhen you were trying to figure out what to buy for the environmentalist on your holiday list, fur probably didn’t cross your mind. But some ecologists and fashion (时装)enthusiasts are trying to bring back the market for fur made from nutria(海狸鼠).Unusual fashion shows in New Orleans and Brooklyn have showcased nutria fur made into clothes in different styles. “It sounds crazy to talk about guilt-free fur—unless you understand that the nutria are destroying vast wetlands every year”, says Cree McCree, project director of Righteous Fur.Scientists in Louisiana were so concerned that they decided to pay hunters $5 a tail. Some of the fur ends up in the fashion shows like the one in Brooklyn last month.Nutria were brought there from Argentina by fur farmers and let go into the wil d. “The ecosystem down there can’t handle this non-native species(物种).It’s destroying the environment. It’s them or us.” says Michael Ma ssimi, an expert in this field.The fur trade kept nutria in check for decades，but when the market for nutria collapsed in the late 1980s，the cat-sized animals multiplied like crazy.Biologist Edmond Mouton runs the nutria control program for Louisiana. He says it’s not easy to convince people that nutria fur is green, but he has no doubt about it. Hunters bring in more than 300,000 nutria tails a year, so part of Mouton’s job these days is trying to promote fur.Then there’s Righteous Fur and its unusual f ashion. Model Paige Morgan says, “ To give people a guilt-free option that they can wear without someone throwing paint on them—I think that’s going to be a massive thing, at least here in New York.” Designer Jennifer Anderson admits it took her a while to come around to the opinion that using nutria fur for her creations is morally acceptable. She trying to come up with a label to attach to nutria fashions to show it is eco-friendly.28. What is the purpose of the fashion shows in New Orleans and Brooklyn?A. To promote guilt-free fur.B. To expand the fashion market.C. To introduce a new brand.D. To celebrate a winter holiday.29. Why are scientists concerned about nutria?A. Nutria damage the ecosystem seriously.B. Nutria are an endangered species.C. Nutria hurt local cat-sized animals.D. Nutria are illegally hunted.30. What does the underlined word “collapsed” in paragraph 5 probably mean?A. Boomed.B. Became mature.C. Remained stable.D. Crash ed.31. What can we infer about wearing fur in New York according to Morgan?A. It’s formal.B. It’s risky.C. It’s harmful.D. It’s traditional.When you were trying to figure out what to buy for the environmentalist on your holiday list, fur probably didn’t cross your mind.出现在脑海（想到过）——很可能从没想到过皮毛制品But some ecologists and fashion (时装)enthusiasts are trying to bring back the market for fur made from nutria(海狸鼠).使……再度流行——恢复市场往日的繁华Unusual fashion shows in New Orleans and Brooklyn have showcased nutria fur made into Showcase动词，展示的意思“It sounds crazy to talk about guilt-free fur—不内疚的——谈论皮毛制品，良心一点也不内疚。

考研英语二阅读理解全文翻译
英语二T e x t 11---Homework has never been terribly popular with students and even many parents, but in recent years it has been particularly scorned. School districts across the country, most recently Los Angeles Unified, are revising(修改) their thinking on his educational ritual(例行公事). Unfortunately, L.A. Unified has produced an inflexible (不可变更的) policy which mandates(批准) that with the exception of some advanced courses, homework may no longer count for more than 10% of a student’s academic grade。
家庭作业从来就没有受到学生甚至家长的真正欢迎，但最近几年来，家庭作业却受到人们的鄙视。
全国的学校都在修改家庭作业的相关惯例做法。
不幸的是，洛杉矶学区通过了一项不可变更的政策：除了高等课程，家庭作业在学分中所占比例不可以超过10%。
21.It is implied in paragraph 1 that nowadays homework_____。
[A] is receiving more criticism[B] is no longer an educational ritual（绝对）[C] is not required for advanced courses（正反）[D] is gaining more preferences（正反）2---This rule is meant to address the difficulty that students from impoverished or chaotic homes might have in completing their homework. But the policy is unclear and contradictory. Certainly, no homework should be assigned that students cannot do without expensive equipment. But if the district is essentially giving a pass to students who do not do their homework because of complicated family lives, it is going riskily close to the implication that standards need to be lowered for poor children。
大学英语2阅读理解练习题
大学英语2阅读理解练习题Passage 1According to a Xinhua News Agency report, residents of China’s five largest cities spent about 643 Yuan (US $80.37) each on sport in 2005, with Beijing topping the survey at about 880 Yuan (US $ 110) per person (The five cities were Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Wuhan and Chengdu).Chinese are more willing to part with hard-earned cash in pursuit(追求) of fitness than they were 10 years ago. In addition to participating in a variety of fitness（健康）classes, many are now even seeking private training. Almost every new fitness or entertainment（娱乐）product or idea finds a willing audience among the public, whether riding bikes or engaging in “hot” yoga.A young organizer of a Beijing folding-bike club said, “We take exercise not only for our own fitness, but considering our social responsibilities. For example, every day we ride folding bikes to and from our work places. This is our way of helping reduce pollution in Beijing.”The city’s elderly actively participate in many of the city’s sports teams. In the early mornings in the park, it is easy to meet groups of the elderly using the national fitness facilities or practicing Taiji and kendo.One participant said, “We do not want to bring any burden to our children, so we care more about our health than ever before.”1. Which of the following cities is not among the 5 largest cities of China?A. ShanghaiB. TianjinC. BeijingD. Wuhai2. The citizens of which city spent the most money each on sport in 2005?A. shanghaiB.

考研英语(二)第二部分阅读理解(上)
考研英语（二）第二部分阅读理解（上）（江南博哥）材料题根据以下材料，回答1-5题The number of children who have died from heatstroke this year after being left or getting trapped in hot cars is among the highest on record.So far in 2019, 49 children have died from vehicular heatstroke, according to the National Safety Council, anon-profit safety group.While most deaths occur during the hotter summer months, they can also happen in other seasons and with outside temperatures in the 60s, said Jan Null, a lecturer in meteorology at San Jose State University.More deaths could happen before the end of the year, though Mr.Null pointed out that the last death in 2018 was in September.The growing number of hot-car deaths—an average of 38 each year for the past two decades—displays the difficultly of pinpointing their cause and finding viable solutions,advocates say.Most of these deaths occurred when a parent or caregiver unintentionally left a child in the car and about a quarter of them happened when a child got into a car on their own, and about 19% occurred after a caregiver knowingly left a child in the car, according to Mr.Null. "Nobody wants to accept the fact that you're capable of doing this, but it's just how our brains work,"said Janette Fennell, president and founder of ."If you can forget your keys or your cellphone, you certainly have the capability of forgetting your child."The temperature inside a car can rise about 20 degrees in just 10 minutes, according to researchers.Heatstroke can happen when a person's body temperature reaches 104 degrees, and it could turn lethal for children when their body temperature reaches 107 degrees.While the U.S.has experienced record-setting heat in recent years, Mr.Null said he couldn't specify an exact cause for the increase in child heatstroke deaths because a complex set of factors can play a role.Beyond the temperature outside or where a car is parked, psychological factors can come into play.As such, "there's not going to be one solution," he said.Child-safety groups have pushed public-awareness campaigns over the years, and advocated for legislation and new technology in automobiles.A number of states have passed laws forbidding a person from leaving a child unattended in a vehicle because of safety concerns.For several years, advocacy groups have also pushed Congress to pass the Hot Cars Act,which would require new cars to be outfitted with child-safety alert systems.Bills were introduced in the Senate and House of Representatives earlier this year.1、[单选题]In Paragraph 2, Jan Null pointed out that_____A.summer was the only season to cause hot-car deathsB.more deaths from vehicular heatstroke would happen this yearC.it is imperative to call for more attention to the car deathsD.other seasons could be more dangerous than summer正确答案：B参考解析：More deaths could happen before the end of the year, though Mr.Null pointed out that the last death in 2018 was in September. 尽管2018年最后一次死亡时间发生在9月，但是Jan Null认为年底前可能会有更多类似的死亡事件发生。
2018年考研英语2 阅读理解text4
2018年考研英语2 阅读理解text4题目：The Gig Economy: Beauty or the Beast?内容概要：这篇文章主要探讨了“零工经济”（Gig Economy）的发展趋势及其对社会和劳动力市场的影响。
作者首先介绍了“零工经济”的概念和特点，然后分析了其对劳动市场和劳动者的影响，探讨了其中的利弊，最后提出了一些建议。
文章涉及了劳动力市场、就业模式、社会保障等多个方面的议题。
正文：一、零工经济的概念及特点随着信息技术的发展，零工经济逐渐成为一个备受关注的话题。
所谓“零工经济”，即通过上线评台（如Uber、Airbnb等）实现的雇佣模式，劳动者通过这些评台为雇主提供临时性的、零散的劳动力服务，而非传统的长期雇佣关系。
这种新兴的就业模式，给劳动力市场带来了诸多变革，其特点主要包括灵活、临时、低成本等。
二、对劳动力市场的影响1.福利待遇缺失：零工经济的兴起，使得传统意义上的工作保障遇到了挑战。
相对于传统的长期雇佣关系，零工经济中的劳动者往往缺乏社会保障和福利待遇，如养老保险、医疗保险等。
2.灵活性与不稳定性：零工经济虽然提供了更为灵活的就业方式，但也带来了劳动市场的不稳定性。
劳动者常常面临收入不稳定、工作时间不确定等问题，这可能会增加他们的生活压力。
3.就业机会扩大：另零工经济也为一些人提供了就业机会。
一些无法进入传统劳动力市场的人裙，如退休人员、家庭主妇等，通过参与零工经济，获得了一定的收入来源。
三、零工经济的利弊1.利：零工经济的灵活性和便利性，为一部分劳动者提供了更多的就业机会，同时也带动了相关产业的发展，为经济增长做出了一定贡献。
2.弊：然而，零工经济也引发了一些问题。
首先是劳动者的权益受到侵害的问题，由于缺乏工会和集体谈判的保障，劳动者在零工经济中容易受到剥削。
其次是对传统劳动力市场的冲击，零工经济的兴起可能导致传统就业模式的衰退，进而影响整个劳动力市场的稳定。
四、建议1.立法监管：针对零工经济的发展，有关部门应该及时出台相应的法律法规，保障劳动者的权益，规范零工市场的秩序。

B Many of us love July because it’s the month when nature’s berries and stone fruits are in abundance. These colourful and sweet jewels from British Columbia’s fields are little powerhouses of nutritional protection. Of the common berries, strawberries are highest in vitamin C, although, because of their seeds, raspberries contain a little more protein(蛋白质), iron and zinc (not that fruits have much protein). Blueberries are particularly high in antioxidants(抗氧化物 质). The yellow and orange stone fruits such as peaches are high in the carotenoids we turn into vitamin A
2023年考研英语二真题答案之阅读理解Text 2部分
2023年考研英语二真题答案之阅读理解Text 2部分Part ADirections:Read the following four texts.Answer the questions after each text by choosing A,B, C or D. Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET. (40 points) Text 2It's easy to dismiss as absurd the federal government's ideas for plugging the chronic funding gap of our national parks. Can anyone really think it's a good idea to allow Amazon deliveries to your tent in Yosemite or food trucks to line up under the redwood trees at Sequoia National Park? But the administration is right about one thing: U.S. national parks are in crisis. Collectively, they have a maintenance backlog of more than $12 billion. Roads, trails, restrooms, visitor centers and other infrastructure are crumbling.But privatizing and commercializing the campgrounds would not be the panacea that the Interior Department's Outdoor Advisory Committee would have us believe. Campgrounds are a tiny portion of the overall infrastructure backlog, and concessionaires in the parks hand over, on average, only about 5% of their revenues to the National Park Service.Moreover. increased privatization would certainly undercut one of the major reasons why 300 million visitors come to the parks each year: to enjoy nature and get a respite from the commercial drumbeat that overwhelms daily life. The real problem is that the parks have been chronically starved of funding. We conducted a comprehensive survey examining how us residents view their national parks. and we found that Americans place a very high value on them whether or not they actually visit them. The peer-reviewed economic survey of 700 U.S taxpayers, conducted by mail and internet, also found that people would be willing to pay a significant amount of money to make sure the parks and their programs are kept intact. Some 81% of respondents said they would be willing to pay additional taxes for the next 10 years to avoid any cuts to the national parks.The national parks provide great value to U.S. residents both as places to escape and as symbols of nature. On top of this, they produce value from their extensive educational programs, their positive impact on the climate through carbon sequestration, their contribution to our cultural and artistic life. and of course through tourism. The parks also help keep America's past alive, working with thousands of local jurisdictions around the country to protect historical sites including Ellis Island and Gettysburg and to bring the stories of these places to life.The parks do all this on a shoestring. Congress allocates onl$3 billion a year tothe national park system an amount that has been flat since 2001 (in inflation-adjusted dollars) with the exception of a onetime boost in 2009 as part of the Obama stimulus package Meanwhile. the number of annual visitors has increased by more than 50% since 1980, and now stands at 330 million visitors per year.26. What problem are U.S. national parks faced with?A. decline of business profitsB. inadequate commercializationC. lack of transportation servicesD. poorly maintained infrastructure【答案】 D27. Increased privatization of the campground may?A. spoil visitor experienceB. help preserve natureC. bring operational pressureD. boost visits to parks【答案】 A28. according to para 5, most respondents in the survey would?A. go to the national parks on a regular basis.B. advocate a bigger budget for the national parksC. agree to pay extra for the national parksD. support the national parks' recent reforms【答案】 C29.The national parks are valuable in that they__.A. lead the way in tourismB. sponsor research on climateC. have historical significanceD. provide an income for the locals【答案】 C.30. It can be concluded from the text that the national park system_A. is able to cope with staff shortagesB. is able to meet visitor' demandsC. is in need of a new pricing policyD. is in need of a funding increase【答案】 D。
