高一英语阅读理解专项训练阅读理解1 In China, more and more middle school students are getting shorter sleeping time than before. Most students sleep less than nine hours every night, because they have much homework to do.. Some homework is given by their teachers, and some by their parents. Also, some students don't know how to save time. They are not careful enough while they do their homework, so it takes them a lot of time. Some students spend too much time watching TV or playing computer games. They stay up very late. Some students have to get up early every morning on weekdays to get to school on time by bus or by bike. It can be a long way from home to school.Schools and parents should cut down some of the homework so that our children can enjoy more than nine hours of sleep every night for their health.

They seem to have mastered the basic language structu re(结构), but a conversation in English will make them feel uneasy. They are afraid that other people might find out their mistakes.It's uncommon that many students who are bad speakers of English can write English perfectly. This proves that they are unable to organize their idea in English. The center of the problem is that they lack practice and confidence (自信).Why should you be afraid?

Both of them had very bad memories. For example, Rosy would forget to cook dinner or take vegetables home after paying for them. David would show up for work on Sundays, thinking it was Monday. One winter they were to take a long plane trip. When they arrived at the airport, there were only ten minutes left. In that situation, anyone would get into the plane right away. But David and Rosy didn’t do so. They went to buy some flight insurance instead. Immediately after they put a two-pound note into a machine, their policy (保险单) came out.“Who would get the money if the plane crashed, I wonder?” asked Rosy. “My mother, of course,” her husband replied. “We should post the policy to her. Now, be quick! Give me a stamp, will you?” he said to Rosy. “The plane is going to take off in another minute.” David put the stamp on the envelope, dropped it into a postbox, and suddenly he let out a cry.What do you suppose happened to him?

Yet many people do not seem to know that memory works in the same way. When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong. If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault(过错). But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents are to blame(受责备), and few of us know that it is just his own fault. Have you ever found that some people can’t read or write but usually they have better memories? This is because they cannot read or write and they have to remember things; they cannot write down in a little notebook. They have to remember days, names, songs andstories; so their memory is the whole time being exercised. So if you want to have a good memory, learn from the people: Practice remembering.(细节题; 猜测词义题;判断题;推理题;主旨大意题)1.

His childhood was a brilliant success because of his intellectual strength. He was accepted into middle school at 10. At 16 he became the youngest student at Edinburgh University.“At that time, he was a lucky boy, good at almost everything,” said his old friend Murray Elder.However, setbacks (挫折) fell on the brilliant boy. After a rugby injury, he became blind in his left eye. Before long, similar symptoms (症状) developed in his right eye. “I lay in the hospital bed in total darkness, uncertain about my future,” said Brown.Looking back into the past, Brown didn’t complain about his bad luck. He even said: “One door closes; you can’t play rugby any more, so you focus on other things.”Brown was interested in student politics in university, which helped a lot in his political career later in life. In 1997, Brown was made Chancellor of the Exchequer (财政大臣). He has succeeded in giving the country a high rate of employment and the longest period of economic growth in its history.Compared with his successful career, Brown’s family life is full of downs. He lost his first daughter ten days after her birth. His 1-year-old youngest son has a deadly disease. “These accidents make me appreciate my life more,” he said.(细节题; 猜测词义题;判断题;推理题;主旨大意题)1.

On my second day I got on the first bus that passed, rode on it for several stops, then got off and walked on. The first two hours passed pleasantly enough, then I decided to turn back to my hotel for lunch. After walking about for some time, I decided I had better ask the way. The trouble was that the only word I knew of the language was the name of the street in which I lived, and even that I pronounced badly. I stopped to ask a newspaper-seller. He handed me a paper. I shook my head and repeated the name of the street and he put the paper into my hands. I had to give him some money and went on my way. The next person I asked was a policeman. He listened to me carefully, nodded and gently took me by the arm. There was a strange look in his eyes as he pointed left and right and left again. I nodded politely and began walking in the direction he pointed.About an hour passed and I noticed that the houses were getting fewer and fewer and green fields were appearing on either side of me. I had come all the way into the countryside. The only thing left for me to do was find the nearest railway station.(细节题; 猜测词义题;判断题;推理题;主旨大意题)1.

The kind of hotel you choose probably is decided above all according to how much money you want to spend. There are small hotels with very few services, where the prices are low, or there are large hotels with all the very latest comforts, where you could spend all the money you have in the bank for one very comfortable night.There are several different kinds of people who go to hotels. Some want to live, rather than just stay, in hotel; the hotels which are designed to meet their needs are called residential hotels. However, most people who stay in hotels are either business people or tourists on holiday.In most hotels, there are two kinds of rooms: single rooms, for the use of one person, and double rooms, for the use of one person, and double rooms, for the use of two people. In addition, in large hotels, there are also suite s(套房),which include two or more rooms connected together----perhaps a bed –room and a living room. They are for people who are very rich or very important.(细节题; 猜测词义题;判断题;推理题;主旨大意题)1.One’s choice of a particular hotel is made mainly according to_______A. how much one is wiling to pay for a nightB. whether one is traveling on business or for pleasureC. whether the hotel is in the central part of cityD. how good the services of the hotel are2.

He wanted to borrow a lot of money to learn to paint pictures, but he did not think he could pay off the debts.One day the lawyer said to him, “One thousand dollars, and here is the money.” As Hobbs took the package of notes, he was very dumbfounded. He didn’t know where the money came from and how to spend it. He said to himself, “I could go to find a hotel and live like a rich man for a few days; or I give up my work in the factory and do what I’d like to do: painting pictures. I could do that for a few weeks, but what would I do after that? I should have lost my place in the factory and have no moneyto live on. If it were a little less money, I would buy a new coat, or a radio, or give a dinner to my friends. If it were more, I could give up the work and pay for painting pictures. But it’s too much for one and too little for the other.”“Here is the reading of your uncle’s will(遗嘱),” said the lawyer, “telling what is to be done with this money after his death. I must ask you to remember one point. Your uncle has said you must bring me a paper showing exactly what you did with his money, as soon as you have spent it.”“Yes, I see.

Norm Pethrick, who with his wife had been collecting water, immediately went to help her. He jumped onto the back, poked (戳)the eyes of the crocodile and finally got his wife free.Ms Pethrick was later taken to Royal Darwin Hospital for a medical treatment. The doctors said she was suffering eight puncture wounds (伤口) in her right leg, a puncture wound in her left leg and a serious cut to one of her fingers.“This could have been a fatal and tragic situation,” said the general manager of Royal Darwin Hospital (RDH), Dr Len Notaras, according to a local report.He said Ms Pethrick was saved by her husband’s “quick and diligent actions”.Dr Notaras also said she would remain in hospital for three to four days and have an operation to clean the wounds, which are easy to get infected because of bacteria (细菌) on the teeth of the crocodile.1. This passage is most likely to be found in _____.A. a travel guideB. a newspaperC. a textbookD. a novel2.

According to the passage, Norm Pethrick can be described as following EXCEPT ______.A. braveB. diligentC. quickD. humorous阅读理解12 A good teacher is many things to many people. In my own experience, the people I respect the most and think about the most are the teachers who demanded the most discipline from their students.I miss one teacher in particular that I had in high school. I think she was a good teacher because she was a very strict person. I remember very vividly a sign over her classroom door. It was a simple sign that said, “Laboratory—in this room the first five letters of the word was emphasized, not the last seven.” In other words, I guess, labor for her was more important than oratory, which means making speeches.She prepared her work very carefully and demanded us to do the same. We got lots of homework from her. Once she had broken her arm, and everybody in the class thought that maybe the homework load would be reduced, but it continued just the same. She checked our work by stamping her name at the bottom of the papers to show that she had read them.I think sometimes teachers who demand the most are liked the least. But as time goes by, this discipline really seems to benefit the students.1. Which of the following is considered a good teacher by the writer?A. A patient teacher.B. An honest teacher.C. A strict teacher.D. A hard-working teacher.2. The teacher put up the sign over her classroom door ___.A. to remind the students that this room was a laboratoryB. to advise the students to follow the disciplinesC. to warn the students not to be carelessD. to tell the students to work hard in the classroom3. When the teacher’s arm was broken, she ___.A. gave her students the usual amount of homeworkB. gave her students less homeworkC. asked her students to check the homework themselvesD. gave her students more homework4. What’s the writer’s opinion of discipline?A. It makes the students dislike their teachers.B. It does good to the students in the long run.C. It’s too much for young children.D. It does more harm than good to the students.阅读理解13 Learning the language of a country isn't enough. If you want to have a pleasant visit, find out as much as possible about the manners and customs of your hosts. You will probably be surprised just how different they can be from your own.A visitor to India would do well to remember that people there consider it impolite to use the left hand for passing food at the table. The left hand should be used from washing yourself. Also in India, you might see a man shaking his head at another and think that he is disagreeing. But in many parts of India this movement just means agreement or acceptance.At a meal in countries on the Arabic Peninsula (阿拉伯半岛), you will find that the drinking cup is always refilled as soon as you drink it. The way to say that you have enough is to take the cup or glass in your hand and give it a little shake from side to side or place your hand over the top.In Europe it is quite usual to cross your legs when sitting talking to someone, even at an important meeting. During this when meeting an important person in Thailand, however, could cause troubles. Also when in Thailand, do not touch the head of an adult---it's just not done.1. Before you go to a foreign country, you'd better _______.A. learn the language all the timeB. read some books about their customsC. find out something differentD. not use the left hand2. The Indians think_________.A. the right hand should be used to wash yourselfB. the left hand can be used at tableC. shaking head means agreementD. passing food at table is not polite3. In Arabic countries, ___________.A. drinking is not allowed in publicB. you can never drink enoughC. your drinking cup won't be emptyD. if you do not want to drink any more, you should give the host some signs4. We can know from the passage that ________.A. learning a foreign language is not importantB. different countries have different manners and customsC. we should do everything according to the foreign customsD. both B and C5. This passage is the second part of the text, the first part of the text is most likely____.A. about something that it is important to learn the language of a countryB. referring to(谈及) the importance of manners at tableC. referring to why people should learn manners and customs of a countryD. referring to how people act in foreign countries阅读理解14 The United States covers a large part of the North American continent. Its neighbors are Canada to the north and Mexico to the south. Although the United States is a big country, it is not the largest in the world. In 1964, its population was over 185,000,000.When this land first became a nation, after winning its independence (独立) from England, it had thirteen states. Each of the states was represented(代表) on the American flag by a star. All these states were in the eastern part of the continent. As the nation grew toward the west, new states were added and new stars appeared on the flag. For a long time, there were 48 stars. In 1959, however, two more stars were added to the flag, representing the new states of Alaska and Hawaii.Indians were the first people of the land which is now the United States. There are still many thousands of Indians now living in all parts of the country. Sometimes it is said that the Indians are "the only real Americans". Most Americans come from all over the world. Those who came first ingreatest numbers to make their homes on the eastern coast of North America were mostly from England. It is for that reason that the language of the United States is English and that its culture and customs are more like those of England than those of any other country in the world.1. The first thirteen states were in the _____of the United States.A. southB. northC. eastD. west2. The United States didn't have______ states until _____.A. thirteen; 1959B. fifty; 1959C. fifty; this land first became a nationD. fifty;19643. Why is English the language of America?A. English is the Indian's native language.B. Most Americans come from all over the world.C. Most of the people who first settled in America were from England.D. Canada is America's nearest neighbour.4. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. The States of AmericaB. The Language of AmericaC. The United States of AmericaD. The Culture and Customs of America阅读理解(七选五)15 There was a park near my home. But I didn’t go there very often. Many people said there was nothing special. One afternoon I went into the park and found it was really small. I walked quickly because there wasn’t much to see. I walked for some time and found myself standing in front of two paths. 1 I found that the two paths were different from each other.The left one was wide and clean. There were lots of flowers on both sides of the path. Though the flowers weren’t very beautiful, they made me feel good. I decided to take this path. But wait! I looked at the right one. The path didn’t look nice. 2 Grass grew everywhere. For a long time I couldn’t make up my mind.3 It wasn’t nice, but I didn’t want to give up. At last, I came to the end of the path. Ah! There was a small garden there. It was beautiful, perhaps the most beautiful garden I had ever seen.4 Many people told me that there was nothing much to see in the park. Now I’d like to tell them that if they had followed the right way, they would have felt differently. But when I told them about what I had seen in the park, they just smiled at me without saying a word. I knew they didn’t believe me. They couldn’t even remember that path because it was so small.5 Don’t be afraid to choose a different path. You may get a big surprise!A. There is nothing that I want to see.B. It looked like it had not been cleaned for months.C. After a while a strange feeling made me follow the dirty path.D. “ Which way should I go?” I asked myself. I looked at one way, then the other.E. I told them what happened.F. My trip to the park that day made me understand something about life.G. There were trees, flowers and chairs. I thought it was the nicest part of the park.阅读理解16 The best way to improve your reading ability is, of course, to read. The student must make a real effort to improve his speed, and if necessary his comprehension, with each exercise. Too many students read passively and without judgment; they simply start the first word and read through to the end. You should read a passage actively, selectively and purposely. You must believe that you indeed have the ability to read faster and understand more, and that you will.Reading, like everything else in life, is best done when you are relaxed. They key to improve it is concentration(注意).You must be willing to break some old habits and form new ones. Extra body movement, such as turning the head from side to side, pointing at the line with a finger or pencil, or moving the lips, should be stopped immediately. Reading is mostly a mental process and a body。

高一英语阅读理解专项训练及答案及解析一、高中英语阅读理解1.阅读理解Last week, Vodafone started a test of the UK's first full 5G service, available for use by businesses in Salford. It is part of its plan to trial the technology in seven UK cities. But what can we expect from the next generation of mobile technology?One thing we will see in the preparation for the test is lots of tricks with the new tech. Earlier this year, operators paid almost £ 1.4 billion for the 5G wavelengths, and to compensate for that cash, they will need to catch the eye of consumers. In September, Vodafone used its bit of the range to display the UK's first hologram (全息) call. The Manchester City captain Steph Houghton appeared as a hologram in Newbury. It isn't all holograms, however: 5G will offer faster internet access, with Ofcom (英国通讯管理局) suggesting that video that takes a minute to download on 4G will be available in just a second.The wider application is to support connected equipment on the "internet of things" -not just the internet-enabled fridge that can reorder your milk for you, but the network that will enable driverless cars and delivery drones (无人机) to communicate with each other.Prof William Webb has warned that the technology could be a case of the emperor's new clothes. Much of the speed increase, he claims, could have been achieved by putting more money in the 4G network, rather than a new technology. Other different voices have suggested that a focus on rolling out wider rural broadband access and addressing current network coverage would be more beneficial to the UK as a whole.Obviously, 5G will also bring a cost to consumers. It requires a handset for both 5G and 4G, and the first 5G-enabled smart phones are expected in the coming year. With the slow pace of network rollout so far, it is likely that consumers will end up upgrading to a new 5 G phone well before 5 G becomes widely available in the next couple of years.(1)Why does Prof William Webb say "the technology could be a case of the emperor's new clothes"?A. He is in favor of the application of the new technology.B. 5G will bring a cost to consumers in their daily life.C. 5G helps people communicate better with each other.D. He prefers more money to be spent on 4G networks.(2)The underlined word "addressing" in the fourth paragraph has the closest meaning to________. A. making a speech to B. trying to solve C. managing to decrease D. responding to(3)The last paragraph indicates that .A. it'll take several years .to make 5G accessible to the public in the UKB. 5G service shows huge development potential and a broad marketC. customers are eager to use 5G smart phones instead of 4G onesD. it's probable that 5G network rollout is speeding up in Britain(4)What do we know about the text?A. Vodafone is successful in spreading the 5G service.B. Steph Houghton appeared as a hologram by 4G.C. The application of 5G will make life much easier.D. 5G phones are available in rural areas of the UK.【答案】(1)D(2)B(3)A(4)C【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文。

专题高一年级英语阅读理解专项练习附答案(50篇)

高中阅读理解专项训练附答案解析1篇It’s hard to avoid looking like a fool on April Fool’s Day. On April 1 each year, people play tricks on each other. These tricks are usually silly rather than mean. Classmates sometimes tie each other’s shoelaces to their chairs. Teachers might hand out an impossibly difficult surprise test that scares students before they realise it’s only a joke. Newspapers announce fake contests (such as “Win an elephant!”) and report on fake stories (like “UFO” lands in New York City).Forget gifts, songs and special foods-those are for the other holidays of the year. On April Fool’s Day, the only tradition is to laugh (and maybe to cause a little bit of trouble).One April Fool’s Day, when I was in high school, a group of students in my class played a very clever and funny trick on the teachers. They bought some chickens and set them free in our school cafeteria. The chickens ran all round the school, in and out of classrooms and under our feet. Feathers were flying everywhere.Teachers began running after the chickens, trying to catch them. Finally, they caught four of them. But the chickens were wearing numbered tags around their necks, and the teachers discovered that they had only caught chickens NO. 1, 2, 3, and 5. Where was chicken No. 4?The te achers looked and looked. They couldn’t find another chicken. After a few hours, they realised that the students had played another joke on them: There were only four chickens in the first place! They’d been tricked by the numbers on the chickens.It’s been a long time since I was in high school, but that April Fool’s Day remains one of my favourite memories from those years.1.What can we infer from the first paragraph on April Fool’s Day?A.Everyone is hard to avoid being fooled on April Fool’s Day.B.Students play jokes on teachers on April Fool’s Day.C.Teachers play tricks on students on April Fool’s Day.D.Newspapers often cheat people.2.Why did students set chickens free?A.They wanted to let chickens free. B.They wanted to let chickens run all round the school.C.They wanted to see feathers flying. D.They wanted to play a trick on the teachers. 3.How many jokes did the students play on the teachers?A.One. B.Two. C.Three. D.Four.【答案】1.A2.D3.B【分析】这是一篇记叙文。

高一年级英语阅读理解专项训练(含答案)(7篇)一、完型填空1.This year my husband and I decided to have a quiet, low-key New Year's Eve. We wanted to spend it with our kids and other immediate family and make it a special 1 for them, instead of 2 a babysitter and going out on our own. The logical way to do this was through 3 . As we all know, food had a magical way of making; a night 4 , and our New Year's Eve certainly 5 that way, thanks to doughnuts(甜甜圈).I decided to make doughnuts because my cousins had 6 a batch(一批) on Halloween and I found it very 7 . I used a recipe from the 1976 Mennonite cookbook More With Less and it 8 a curious ingredient---two cups of mashed potatoes that 9 made the texture lighter. The doughnuts were 10 and cut from a sheet of dough(生面团), then left to rise until ready to fry in hot oil. Then they took several seconds to 11 , which meant that my enormous batch of 100 doughnuts was 12 cooking in a fairly short time. We glazed(浇上浆液) the tops and then 13 them for the rest of the evening. The leftovers disappeared at breakfast.This will become an annual 14 , I have no doubt.

My grandmother, my mother and I were having lunch at a restaurant. I 1 a Salisbury steak. But when served, it was 2 accompanied by a plate of peas.I have always hated peas. It is a complete 3 to me why anyone would voluntarily eat peas. “Eat your peas,” my grandmother said.“Mother,” said my mother in her 4 voice. “He doesn’t like peas. Leave him alone.”My grandmother looked at me and said the words that changed my life: “I’ll pay you five dollars 5 you eat those peas”. Five dollars! And only one plate of peas stood between 6 and the possession of that unimaginable amount of money. I began to 7 the awful things down my throat and finally swallowed the 8 one of them. My grandmother handed me the 9 . “I can do what I want, Ellen, and you can’t stop me,” she 10 to my mother. My mother glared at her and also glared at me 11 .Several days later, at dinner, my mother offered me some steaming peas and I, of course, 12 . My mother fixed me with a cold eye as she 13 more peas onto my plate. “You ate them for money,” she said, “You can eat them for love.”Oh, despair!

Even those small acts of kind ness can make a difference in someone’ day. That was just the case for Amie Mickey when she 1 a bumper sticker (车尾贴) on her car reading: You Matter.Amie started to do this several years ago. At first, she wondered if people would 2 it. However, much to her surprise, she began seeing a flood of 3 every time she hit the road. More often than not, people 4 slowly near her car would roll down their windows, raising their 5 , waving and smiling. Sometimes, she even found some sticky notes left on her windshield saying things like “You 6 too!” Once while she was driving down the highway, she became 7 when a man driving a sports car at a high speed pulled his car alongside suddenly, waving and mouthing, “You matter!” Though it took her some time to recover from the 8 , she still felt happy. Last year, someone 9 her car while she was waiting for her friend in the car by the roadside, saying to her, “It is a(an) 10 sticker. I’ve seen various stickers before, bu t none of them have touched me as your sticker has done.” The two small words on the sticker seem simple enough, but they really struck a chord with many complete strangers who 11 to catch sight of the sticker.Stories like Amie’s really 12 the rest of us. Sometimes a kind word or gesture may lift our 13 and it doesn’t cost a thing except for a little extra thought. Maybe it means offering a friend a hug, praising the children when their children 14 well in school, helping someone out or volunteering at nursing homes. Acts of kindness are waiting everywhere. Small as they seem, they can make a 15 impact on the world, and help form general goodness.1.A.put up B.picked up C.fixed up D.tore up 2.A.watch B.overlook C.notice D.ignore 3.A.strangers B.passers-by C.attention D.confusion 4.A.running B.driving C.walking D.riding 5.A.voices B.thumbs C.shoulders D.hats6.A.count B.share C.matter D.value 7.A.frightened B.discouraged C.embarrassed D.disappointed 8.A.parking B.speed C.event D.incident 9.A.blocked B.approached C.repaired D.cleaned 10.A.special B.important C.typical D.skeptical 11.A.occurred B.happened C.managed D.offered12.A.shock B.delight C.inspire D.satisfy 13.A.spirits B.thoughts C.feelings D.minds 14.A.work B.exercise C.conduct D.behave 15.A.reliable B.subjective C.positive D.brief【答案】1.A2.C3.C4.B5.B6.C7.A8.D9.B10.A11.B12.C13.A14.D15.C5.One day, a professor entered the classroom and asked his students to prepare for a surprise test.

高一英语阅读理解专项训练及答案含解析一、高中英语阅读理解1.阅读理解Dodder is an unusual and unwanted plant that attacks other plants. Except for its flowers, the plant looks like spaghetti, a kind of noodles in the shape of long thin pieces that look like string when they are cooked. It's almost leafless, thread-like stems hang down on top of other plants that dodder needs to stay alive. Dodder does not produce its own food. Instead, it steals food from other plants. It feeds by sucking juices from the plant which is wrapped around, often making its host very weak or even killing it.Dodder can find other plants by their smell. When a young dodder plant starts growing, it follows the smell of plants it prefers, like tomato plants, potato plants, or other farm crops. Unlike most plants that usually grow in the direction of light or warmth, a dodder plant will grow in the direction of, for example, tomato smell—if a tomato happens to be growing nearby.However, a young dodder plant must find a host plant quickly. It no longer needs its root once it is attached to the host and wrapped around it. If it cannot catch a smell of a potential host within a few days, it will dry up and vanish even if there is plenty of water around. Once it finds a host, the young dodder plant will attach itself to it and start growing faster. At that point the dodder plant will drop its root.Dodder is thus a difficult weed to manage and a real headache for farmers. When it does get out of hand, dodder can greatly reduce a farmer's harvest or even destroy crops completely. Before sowing their produce, especially farmers in warm parts of the world often check to make sure no unwanted dodder seeds have mixed with their crop seeds. This is a good way to stop dodder plants from making their way to a crop field secretly.(1)Why does the author mention spaghetti in the first paragraph?A. To analyze the content of some food.B. To introduce the topic of this passage.C. To tell the usage of the dodder plants.D. To describe the shape of dodder plants.(2)What does the underlined word “vanish” in the third paragraph mean?A. invade.B. grow.C. escape.D. disappear.(3)What can be inferred from the passage?A. Dodder doesn't produce its own food.B. Dodder gives off smell to attract plants.C. Dodder can affect farmers' income.D. Dodder can only survive in the shade.(4)What is the purpose of the passage?A. To introduce a new variety of farm crops.B. To introduce plants that are harmful to humans.C. To introduce the special abilities of a dangerous plant.D. To introduce recent improvements in farming methods.【答案】(1)D(2)D(3)C(4)C【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了一种有特殊生长习性,危害农作物生长的攀附植物——菟丝子。

高中阅读理解专项训练附答案解析1篇Any foreigner who has tried to learn Chinese can tell how hard it is to master the tones required to speak and understand.And anyone who has tried to learn to play the violin or other instruments can report similar challenges.Now researchers have found that people with musical training have an easier time learning Chinese.Writing in the online edition of Nature Neuroscience, researchers from Northwestern University say that both skills draw on the same parts of the brain that help people discover changes in pitch(音调).One of the study's authors, Nina Kraus, said the findings suggested that studying music “actually tunes our sensory system”.This means that schools that want children to do well in languages should hesitate before cutting music programs, Dr.Kraus said.She said music training might also help children with language problems.Mandarin speakers have been shown to have a more complex encoding(编码)of pitch patterns in their brains than English speakers do.This is because in Mandarin and other Asian languages, pitch plays a central role.A single-syllable word can have several meanings depending on how it is intoned.For this study, the researchers looked at 20 non-Chinese speaking volunteers, half with no musical background and half who have studied an instrument for at least six years.As they were shown a movie, the volunteers also heard an audio tape of the Mandarin word “mi” in three of its meanings: squint, bewilder and rice.The researchers recorded activities in their brain stems to see how well they were processing the sounds.Those with a music background showed much more brain activities in response to the Chinese sounds.The lead author of the study, Patrick C.M.Wong, said it might work both ways.It appears that native speakers of tonal languages may do better at learning instruments.1.Why does Chinese learning have something to do with music training?A.Because there is the same difficulty in learning Chinese and music.B.Because skills to learn the two make use of the same parts of the brain.C.Because music training might help people with language study.D.Because people who do well in Chinese study do well in music.2.The underlined word “intoned” in the fourth paragraph can be replaced by the word“________”.A.created B.spelledC.seemed D.pronounced3.What would be the best title for this passage?A.Mandarin Speakers Are Smarter Than English SpeakersB.Skilled Ear for Music May Help Language StudyC.Pitch Plays a Central Role in Chinese LearningD.Schools Need to Develop Music Programs【答案】1.B2.D3.B【分析】这是一篇说明文。

高一英语阅读理解专项训练及答案篇1There was once a captain who loved money so much that he cheated his sailors at the end of every voyage and took their wages.On the last day of one voyage, the ship was in a small port. It was winter time, and the sea was very cold, so the captain said to his sailors, "If one of you stays in the water during the whole night, I will give him my ship. But if he comes out before the sun appears, I shall get his wages."The sailors had heard about the captain's cheating, so they didn't trust him. But then one of them, who thought that he was cleverer than the captain, said that he would do it. He got into the water, and, though it was very cold, he stayed in it. When it was nearly morning, some fishermen lit a fire on the shore about half a mile away."You are cheating," the captain said to the sailor. "The fire's warming you.""But it's half a mile away!" said the sailor."A fire's fire," answered the captain. "I have won."The sailor came out of the water, and said, "Perhaps you think that you are clever because you have won my wages, but you can't cook a chicken.""I can," answered the captain."If you cook this chicken," said the sailor, "I shall work for you without wages for seven years, but if you can't, you will give me your ship."The captain agreed, took the chicken and said, "Where's the fire?""There it is," answered the sailor. "On the shore.""But it's half a mile away," said the captain angrily." 'A fire's fire,' you said," answered the sailor.

She made desperate efforts to reach the side, but made no progress at all. The poor ant almost exhausted was still bravely doing her best when a dove saw her. Moved with pity, the bird threw her a blade of grass, which supported her like a raft, and thus the ant reached the bank again. While she was resting and drying herself in the grass, she heard a man come near. He was walking along barefooted with a gun in his hand. As soon as he saw the dove, he wished to kill it. He would certainly have done so, but the ant bit him in the foot just as he raised his gun to fire. He stopped to see what had bit him, and the dove immediately flew away. It was an animal much weaker and smaller than herself that had saved her life.(163w)1.

高中阅读理解专项训练附答案解析1篇Along the hallway (走廊), I saw mixed expressions on the faces of my students: excited, nervous, and worried.No doubt about it: they were this term’s freshmen. My own first day at high school flashed into my mind.Since our family had ju st moved to the place, I didn’t know anyone at the school. On arriving, I picked up a map and my schedule (日程表). Oh, my goodness, what a large school it was! Nervously, I looked about for where my first class was to be held.When I finally found my class, everyone was talking and laughing together, and I felt so lonely. Throughout the day, each period brought some new faces I had not seen before. But when my English class came around, I had a surprise: an old classmate! It was Ben, who had left my middle school right after sixth grade. We talked and joked about middle school and the clubs we were in together. My nerves eased (放松) a little.Next was the P E. class. This was the first class that I found without difficulty. Sitting through the boring introduction to the class by the teacher, I started talking to a girl sitting near me. I found out that her family had just moved here too, and she didn’t know anyone either. As we talked, we discovered that we had a lot in common, and had a lot of classes together. This girl ended up becoming my best friend. I am so glad that I met her.By the end of that day, I was full of optimism (乐观).

高一年级英语阅读理解专项训练(附答案)(50篇)

高中阅读理解专项训练附答案解析1篇You may not know a lot of people when you start high school. Even if you know some freshmen (新生) , you still feel nervous that you don't know any upperclassmen or teachers. How are you going to make friends among this sea of unknown faces?Most high schools hold a freshman orientation before school actually starts, which is helpful not only because you can know your way around the building and get to meet some of your teachers, but also because you get to meet fellow freshmen. That way, when you show up on your first day of school, you may already recognise a few familiar faces. When you talk to your new classmates, you'll probably find that a lot of them are feeling just like you are. They're all new to the school and don't know what to expect. Talking about a common concern with them can help you develop friendships.The work in high school is something that freshmen are probably worried about. The work in high school builds on what you learnt in middle school, giving you a more advanced knowledge of many subjects. So you may find you have more work to do or that it's a bit more challenging. If you ever find your work too difficult, teachers can give you extra help.High school also has more extracurricular activities than middle school does such as clubs, music and theatre groups and sports teams. This is a good time to explore your interests and try new things.High school gives you the chance to learn how to manage your time, to develop your social skills and interests, and more importantly to be more independent and responsible.1.What does the underlined word “orientation” mean in Paragraph 2?A.Training. B.Game.C.Discussion. D.Examination.2.What are freshmen probably worried about?A.The learning task.B.The ability to make friends.C.The relationship with teachers.D.The freshman orientation.3.Extracurricular activities mainly help students ________.A.build up healthy bodiesB.develop friendshipsC.develop the interestsD.improve their learning ability4.Who is this passage written for?A.Freshmen at high school.B.Freshmen's parents.C.Middle school students.D.Upperclassmen in high school.【答案】1.A2.A3.C4.A【分析】这是一篇说明文。
