Written accounts from the 18th and 19th centuries described flocks（群）so large that they darkened the sky for hours.It was calculated that when its population reach its highest point, there were more than 3 billion passenger pigeons – a number equal to 24 to 40 percent of the total bird population in the United States, making it perhaps the most abundant birds in the world. Even as late as 1870 when their numbers had already become smaller, a flock believed to be 1 mile wide and 320 miles (about 515 kilometers) long was seen near Cincinnati.Sadly, the abundance of passenger pigeons may have been their undoing. Where the birds were abundant, people believed there was an ever-lasting supply and killed them by the thousands. Commercial hunters attracted them to small clearings with grain, waited until pigeons had settled to feed, then threw large nets over them, taking hundreds at a time. The birds were shipped to large cities and sold in restaurants.By the closing decades of the 19th century, the hardwood forests where passenger pigeons nested had been damaged by Americans’ need for wood, which scattered（驱散）the flocks and forced the birds to go farther north, where cold temperatures and spring storms contributed to their decline. Soon the great flocks were gone, never to be seen again.In 1897, the state of Michigan passed a law prohibiting the killing of passenger pigeons, but by then, no sizable flocks had been seen in the state for 10 years. The last confirmed wild pigeon in the United States was shot by a boy in Pike County, Ohio, in 1900. For a time, a few birds survived under human care. The last of them, known affectionately as Martha, died at the Cincinnati Zoological Garden in September 1, 1914.【小题1】In the 18th and early 19th centuries, passenger pigeons _______.A. were the biggest bird in the worldB. lived mainly in the south of AmericaC. did great harm to the natural environmentD. Were the largest population in the US 【小题2】The underlined word ―undoing‖ probably refers to the pigeons’ _______.A. escapeB. ruinC. liberationD. evolution【小题3】What was the main reason for people to kill passenger pigeons?A. To seek pleasure.B. To save other birds.C. To make money.D. To protect crops.【小题4】What can we infer about the law passed in Michigan?A. It was ignored by the public.B. It was declared too late.C. It was unfair.D. It was strict.【文章大意】本文是一篇记叙文。

高中英语真题-2014高考英语阅读理解、完形填空类训练(15)及答案
高中英语真题:2014高考英语阅读理解、完形填空类训练（15）及答案阅读理解Americans are proud of their variety and individuality, yet the y love and respect few things more than a uniform, whether it is the uniform of an elevator, operator or the uniform of a five-star general. Why are uniforms so popular in the United States?Among the arguments for uniforms, one of the first is that in the eyes of most people they look more professional than ci- vilian (百姓的)clothes. People have become conditioned to expect superior quality from a man who wears a uniform. The tel- evision repair man who wears a uniform tends to inspire more trust than one who appears in civilian clothes. Faith in the skill of a garage me chanic is increased by a uniform. What easier way is there for a nurse, a policeman, a barber, or a waiter to lose professional id entity(身份) than to step out of uniform?Uniforms also have many practical benefits. They save on other clothes. They save on laundry bills. They are tax-deduct ible(可减税的). They are often more comfortable and more durable than civ ilian clothes.Primary among the arguments against uniforms is their lack of variety and the consequent loss of individuality experi- enced by people who must wear them. Though there are many types of uniforms, the wearer of any particular type is generally stuck with it, without change, until retirement. When people look alike, they tend to think, speak, and act similarly, on the job at least. Uniforms also give rise to some practical problems. Though they are long-lasting, often their initial expense is greater than the cost of civili an clothes. Some uniforms are also expensive to maintain, requ iring professional dry cleaning rath- er than the home launderin g possible with many types of civilian clothes. 1. It is surprising t hat Americans who worship variety and indi viduality ______.A. still judge a man by his clothesB. hold the uniform in such high regardC. enjoy having a professional identityD. will respect an elevator operator as much as a general in uniform答案: B 指导：这篇文章主要讲述崇尚个性、崇尚多样化的美国人为何爱穿制服，以及制服所带来的利弊，是一道辨别事实题。

She co-authored six science books for children , and started her own sc ience education company.Ride knew that she he1d a unique place in history . “ I realized how important it was for a woman to break that barrier and ope n the door for other women to be able to do the same exciting t hings that the men had been doing,” she said.Since Ride’s historic trip, more than 40 other American women have traveled to space.

2014高考英语阅读理解专题训练精品题(5)及答案
2014高考英语阅读理解专题训练精品题（5）及答案Passage Fifteen (Contribution of Coeducation）Imagining being asked to spend twelve or so years of your life in a society which consisted only of members of own sex. How would you react? Unless there was something definitely wrong with you，you wouldn’t be too happy about it，to say the least。
It is all the more surprising therefore that so many parents in the world choose to impose such abnormal conditions on their children –conditions which they themselves wouldn’t put up with f or one minute！Any discussion of this topic is bound to question the aims of education。
Stuffing children's heads full of knowledge is far from being foremost among them。
One of the chief aims of educations is to equip future citizens with all they require to take their place in adult society. Now adult society is made up of men and women, so how can a segregated school possibly offer the right sort of preparation for it? Anyone entering adult society after years of segregation can only be in for a shock。
2014高考英语阅读理解精品训练(15)及解析
2014高考英语阅读理解精品训练（15）及解析C5[2013·新课标全国卷Ⅰ] CIt happened to me recently.I was telling someone how much I had enjoyed reading Barack Obama’s Dreams From My Father and how it had changed my views of our President。
A friend I was talking to agreed with me that it was，in his words，“a brilliantly(精彩地）written book”．However,he then went on to talk about Mr Obama in a way which suggested he had no idea of his background at all.I sensed that I was talking to a book liar。
And it seems that my friend is not the only one。
Approximately two thirds of people have lied about reading a book which they haven’t。
In the World Book Day's “Report on Guilty Secrets”，Dreams From My Father is at number 9.The report lists ten books，and various authors，which people have lied about reading，and as I’m not one to lie too often （I’d hate to be caught out)，I'll admit here and now that I haven't read the entire top ten.But I am pleased to say that，unlike 42 percent of people，I have read the book at number one，George Orwell’s 1984。

青岛市2019高考英语阅读理解、完形填空及阅读类训练（15）（答案及解析）.阅读理解AWords：344难度系数：★★★建议用时：9分钟When I was 11years old and living under the Israeli occupation, I took a chance and after curfew(宵禁) I ran to visit my grandmother who lived two blocks away from us.On the road, I had to hide under a truck to avoid soldiers coming my way.For 20 minutes I lay there in utter fear watching their boots walk back and forth in front of the truck.My heart was pounding so fast and loud that I was afraid one of the soldiers would hear it and I would be killed instantly.To calm myself, I started begging God to take mercy on me and save me from these men and their guns.I remembered the words of my mother after Israeli soldiers beat my father.She told us to put our fear and anger aside and pray for the poor soldiers, who were also afraid because they were away from their homes in Israel.I began to feel bad for the soldiers.I wondered: Where do they sleep and are they afraid of little children like me? What kind of food do they eat? Do they have big or small families? My fear eased a bit as I pictured the soldiers as people I knew.Although my 20 minutes under the truck seemed like an eternity, I believe that shedding my fear literally saved my life.Thirtysix years later I look around and see another kind of devastation created by fear.After Sept.11, the Arab and Muslim community segregated themselves because of the level of suspicion directed at them from others.Fear of association because of ethnicity led many to retreat within themselves and their community.They stopped socializing with nonArab/Muslim colleagues and neighbors.Once again, we allow differences to separate us because of fear.I believe it is fear we should be fighting not the “other”．We all belong to the same human tribe；that kinship supersedes our differences.We are all soldiers patrolling the road, and we’re all little children hiding under the truck.1．The underlined word “chance” can be best replaced by ________.A．fortune B．opportunityC．risk D．possibility解析：选C。

One way to do that is to build those surfaces specially, on the roofs of buildings. But why go to all that trouble when cities are full of black surfaces already, in the form of asphalt<柏油> roads?Ten years ago, this thought came into the mind of Arian de Bondt, a Dutch engineer. He finally persuaded his boss to follow it up. The result is that their building is now heated in winter and cooled in summer by a system that relies on the surface of the road outside.The heat-collector is a system of connected water pipes. Most of them run from one side of the street to the other, just under the asphalt road. Some, however, dive deep into the ground.When the street surface gets hot in summer, water pumped through the pipes picks up this heat and takes it underground through one of the diving pipes. At a depth of 100 metres lies a natural aquifer<蓄水层> into which several heat exchangers<交换器> have been built. The hot water from the street runs through these exchangers, warming the ground-water, before returning to the surface through another pipe. The aquifer is thus used as a heat store.In winter, the working system is changed slightly. Water is pumped through the he at exchangers to pick up the heat stored during summer. This water goes into the building and is used to warm the place up. After performing that task, it is pumped under the asphalt and its remaining heat keeps the road free of snow and ice.1. Which of the following is true according to the first two paragraphs?A. Arian de Bondt got his idea from his boss.B. Large, flat, black surfaces need to be built in cities.C. The Dutch engineer’s system has been widely used.D. Heat can also be collected from asphalt roads.2. For what purpose are the diving pipes used?A. To absorb heat from the sun.B.

Living alone, every day heworked in his garden. In all the countryside there was no garden so lovely as his. All sorts of flowers grew there, blooming in their proper order as the months went by, one flower taking another flower’s place, so that there were always beautiful things to see, and pleasant odors to smell.Hans had many friends, the most devoted being the Miller. So devoted was the rich Miller to Hans that he’d never go by his garden without plucking a large bunch of flowe rs or a handful of sweet herbs, or filling his pockets with fruits. The Miller used to talk about noble ideas, and Hans nodded and smiled, feeling proud of having such a friend.The neighbors thought it strange that the rich Miller never gave Hans anything in return, though he had hundreds of sacks of flour, many cows and sheep, but Hans never troubled his head about these, and nothing gave him gre ater pleasure than to listen to all the wonderful things about the unselfishness of true friendship.In spring, s ummer, and autumn Hans was very happy, but when winter came, and he had no fruit or flowers to sell, he suffered from cold and hunger. Though extremely lonely, the Miller never came to see him then."There’s no good in going to see Hans while the snow lasts.〞The Miller said to his wife, "Whe n people are in trouble they shouldn’t be bothered. So I’ll wait till the spring comes when he’s happy to give me flowers.〞"You’re certainly very thoughtful,〞answered his wife, "It’s quite a treat to hear you talk about friendship.〞"Couldn’t we ask Hans up here?〞said their son. "I’ll give him half my meal, and show him my white rabbits.〞"How silly you are!〞cried the Miller. "I really don’t know what’s the use of sending you to school. If Hans came up here, and saw our warm fire, our good supper, and our red wine, he might get envious, and envy is a most terrible thing, and would spoil anybody’s nature. I am his best friend, and I’ll always watch over him, and see that he’s not led into any temptation. Besides, if Hans came here, he might ask me for some flour. Flour is one thing, and friendship is another, and they shouldn’t be confused. The words are spelt differently, and mean quite different things. Everybody can see that.〞He looked se riously at his son, who felt so ashamed that he hung his head down, and grew quite scared, and began to cry into his tea.Spring coming, the Miller went down to see Hans. Again he talked about friendship. "Hans,friendship never forgets. I’m afraid you don’t understand the poetry of life. See, how lo vely your roses are!〞Hans said he wanted to sell them in the market to buy back his things which were sold during the hard time of the winter."I’ll give you many good things. I think being generous is the base of friendship.〞said the Miller. "A nd now, as I’ll give you many good things, I’m sure you’d like to give me some flowers in return. Here’s the basket, and fill it quite full.〞Poor Hans was afraid to say anything. He ran and plucked all his pretty ros es, and filled the Miller’s basket, imagining the many good things promised by the Miller.The next day he heard the Miller calling: "Hans, would you mind carrying this sack of flour for me to market?〞"I’m sorry, but I am really very busy today.〞"Well,〞said the Miller, "conside ring that I’m going to give you my things, it’s rather unfriendly of you to refuse. Upon my word, you mustn’t mind my speaking quite plainly to you.〞Poor Hans was driven by his friendship theory to work hard for his best friend, leaving his garden dry and wasted.One evening Hans was sitting by fire when the Miller came."Hans,〞cried the Miller, "My little boy has fallen off a ladder and hurt himself, and I’m going for the Doctor. But he lives so far away, and it’s such a bad windy nigh t. It has just occurred to me that you can go instead of me. You know I’m going to give you my good things, so you should do something for me in return.〞"Certainly,〞cried Hans. He struggled into the stormy night, and got the doctor to ride a horse to the Miller’s house in time to save the boy. However, Hans got lost in the darkness, and wandered off into a deep pool, drowned.At Hans’ funeral, the Miller said, "I was his best friend. I should walk at the head of the procession.〞Every now and then he wiped his eyes with a handkerchief.16.
