On a sunny day last August, Tim heard some shouting. Looking out to the sea carefully, he saw a couple of kids in a rowboat were being pulled out to sea.Two 12yearold boys, Christian and Jack, rowed out a boat to search for a football. Once they'd rowed beyond the calm waters, a beach umbrella tied to the boat caught the wind and pulled the boat into the open water. The pair panicked and tried to row back to shore. But they were no match for it and the boat was out of control.Tim knew it would soon be swallowed by the waves.“Everything went quiet in my head,”Tim recalled (回忆).“I was trying to figure out how to swim to the boys in a straight line.”Tim took off his clothes and jumped into the water. Every 500 yards or so, he raised his head to judge his progress. “At o ne point, I considered turning back,” he says.“ I wondered if I was putting my life at risk.” After 30 minutes of struggling, he was close enough to yell to the boys, “Take down the umbrella!”Christian made much effort to take down the umbrella. Then Tim was able to catch up and climb aboard the boat. He took over rowing, but the waves were almost too strong for him.“Let's aim for the pier (码头),” Jack said. Tim turned the boat toward it. Soon afterward, waves crashed over the boat, and it began to si nk. “Can you guys swim?” he cried. “A little bit,” the boys said.Once they were in the water, Tim decided it would be safer and faster for him to pull the boys toward the pier. Christian and Jack were wearing life jackets and floated on their backs. Tim swam toward land as water washed over the boys' faces.“Are we almost there?” They asked again and again. “Yes,” Tim told them each time.After 30 minutes, they reached the pier.1.Why did the two boys go to the sea?A.to go boat rowing.B.to get back their football.C.to swim in the open water.D.to test the umbrella as a sail.2.What does “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A.the beach.B.the water. C.the boat. D.the wind.3.Why did Tim raise his head regularly?A.to take in enough fresh air.B.to consider turning back or not.C.to check his distance from the boys.D.to ask the boys to take down the umbrella.4.How did the two boys finally reach the pier?A.They were dragged to the pier by Tim.B.They swam to the pier all by themselves.C.They were washed to the pier by the waves.D.They were carried to the pier by Tim on his back.参考答案1—--4、B D C A阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A.B.C和D项中,选出最佳选项。

“Dr. Papaderos, what is the meaning of life?”The usual laughter followed, and people stirred to go. Papaderos held up his hand and stilled the room and looked at me for a long time, asking with his eyes if I was serious and seeing from my eyes that I was. “I will answer your question.”Taking his wallet out of his hip pocket, he fished into a leather billfold and brought out a very small round mirror, about the size of a quarter. And what he said went like this:“When I was a small child, during the war, we were very poor and we lived in a remote village. One day, on the road, I found the broken pieces of a mirror. A German motorcycle had been wrecked in that place.I tried to find all the pieces and put them together, but it was not possible, so I kept only the largest piece. This one, and, by scratching it on a stone, I made it round. I began to play with it as a toy and became fascinated by the fact that I could reflect light into dark places where the sun would never shine—in deep holes and crevices(裂缝)and dark closets. It became a game for me to get light into the most inaccessible places I could find.I kept the little mirror, and, as I went about my growing up, I would take it out in idle moments and continue the challenge of the game. As I became a man, I grew to understand that this was not just a child’s game but a metaphor for what I might do with my life. I came to understand that I am not the light or the source of light. But light—truth, understanding, knowledge—is there, and it will shine in manydark places only if I reflect it.I am a fragment(碎片)of a mirror whose whole design and shape I do not know. Nevertheless, with what I have I can reflect light into the dark places of this world—into the black places in the hearts of men—and change some things in some people. Perhaps others may see and do likewise. This is what I am about. This is the meaning of my life.”1. On hearing the author’s question, Dr. Papaderos __________ at first.A. laughed at his foolishnessB. wasn’t sure of the answerC. doubted his seriousnessD. wasn’t interested at all2. How did Dr. Papaderos get the small round mirror when he was a child?A. He found it on the road and made it round.B. A dying German soldier gave him as a present.C. He chanced to find it in the street while playing.D. He put the broken pieces together and made it.3. Why did Dr. Papaderos like the small round mirror so much as a child?A. Because he was too poor to afford other toys.B. Because it could shine the places where the sun couldn’t rea ch.C. Because he believed it would bring good luck to him.D. Because it told him a lot about what life really meant to him.4. The underlined “metaphor” in the 7th paragraph most probably means _____ .A. symbolB. sourceC. lightD. purpose5. Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?A. A Special Game in the ChildhoodB. A Broken Piece of MirrorC. Dr. Papaderos’ ExperienceD. The Meaning of Life【参考答案】1—5、CABAD。

It was one of the hottest days of the dry season. We had not seen rain in almost a month. The crops were dying. Cows had stopped giving milk. The streams were long gone back into the earth. If we didn't see some rain soon we would lose everything.I was in the kitchen making lunch for my husband and his brothers when I saw my six-year old son, Billy, walking toward the woods. He was obviously walking with a great effort... trying to be as still as possible. Minutes after he disappeared into the woods, he came running out again, toward the house.Moments later, however, he was once again walking in that slow purposeful long step toward the woods. This activity went on for over an hour: walking cautiously to the woods, then running back to the house. Finally, my curiosity got the best of me. I crept out of the house and followed him on his journey.He was cupping both hands in front of him as he walked; being very careful not to spill the water he held in them. Branches and thorns slapped his little face but he did not try to avoid them. He had a much greater purpose. As I leaned in to spy on him, I saw the most amazing site.Several large deer appeared threatening in front of him. But Billy walked right up to them. I almost screamed for him to get away. And I saw a baby deer lying on the ground, obviously suffering from heavy loss of water and heat exhaustion, lift its head with great effort to lap up the water cupped in my beautiful boy's hand.I stood on the edge of the woods watching the most beautiful heart I have ever known working so hard to save a life. As the tears that rolled down my face began to hit the ground, they were suddenly joined by other drops... and more drops... and more. I looked up at the sky. It was as if God, Himself, was weeping with pride.1. Why did the author follow her son?A. Because there might be danger.B. Because her son was doing a good deed.C. Because she intended to help.D. Because she was curious.2. Which of the following statements is Not True according to the passage?A. Rain was in great need.B. Billy carried water with his small hands.C. There were few trees in the woods.D. Billy walked into the woods and then returned over and over again.3. Which is the correct order of the development of the story?① The author was moved to tears.② Billy fed the water to the baby deer.③ Billy walked towards the large deer.④ It began to rain.⑤ The author followed Billy into the woods.A. ③②⑤①④ B ⑤③②①④C. ④①③②⑤D. ⑤②①③④4. At the end of the story, the author might experience different feelings Except that _____A. Billy was a pride.B. God was touched by Billy's activity.C. the rain should have dropped earlier.D. it was worthwhile to have given birth to Billy.【参考答案】DCBC阅读理解。

Have you ever looked toward the sky on a fall day and witnessed a group of migrating birds? If so, you probably noted the V-shaped formation of the birds or the birds flying in a ball-like formation. Why do birds fly this way? Many theories have been developed to explain the formation patterns of different types of birds.One theory is that birds fly in certain formations to take advantage of the laws of nature. The birds know that flying in a V-shaped pattern will save energy. Like the lead cyclist in a race who decreases wind force for the cyclists who follow, the lead bird cuts wind force for the birds that follow. This decrease in wind force means that the birds use up to 70 percent less energy during their flight. When the lead bird becomes tired, a more rested bird takes over that position.But saving energy is important for more than one reason. Sometimes food is short during migration flights. Keeping energy enables the birds to fly longer distances between meals.When food is sighted, the birds guide one another in a different way. When a bird identifies a familiar feeding area, it might turn around in order to signal the group to change direction. Then, this bird becomes the new leader. It helps guarantee that other birds will know exactly where it is going. Then the whole group makes a change in direction, gently streaming from the sky down to the ground. This formation is like an arrow pointing to the location of food.Scientists have also studied the birds that sometimes fly in a ball-like formation. Researchers believe that the birds come together if a predator(天敌)is spotted. The predator may then become impatient waiting for a single bird to fly away from the group. The birds will often dip and dive as a group, frustrating even the most persistent enemy. Scientists report that this is a very effective method of defense against an attack.The birds care for their fellow fliers through teamwork. As transportation expert Henry Ford once said, “If everyone is moving forward together, then success takes care of itself.” When it comes to teamwork, these feathered fliers are a soaring success!1. According to the passage, we can learn that birds ___________.A. move faster than cyclistsB. prefer to fly in a V formationC. are smarter than other animalsD. play different roles in a formation2. When food is sighted, ____________.A. the group follows the discovererB. the lead bird decides what to doC. the discoverer leaves the groupD. the whole group forms a stream3. To protect themselves from attack, birds will _____________ .A. break into groupsB. come close togetherC. change directionsD. fly up and down4. Which is the best title for the passage?A. A Bird’s-Eye View of Teamwork.B. Success Takes Care of Itself.C. The Strongest Will Survive.D. A Science Behind Flying.【参考答案】1—4、DA B A较难题目特训:介绍说明类阅读下列四篇短文,从每小题后所给的A,B,C或D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。

体裁:记叙文话题:友情情深时间:7分钟When milk arrived on the doorstepWhen I was a boy growing up in New Jersey in the 1960s,we had a milkman delivering milk to our doorstep.His name was Mr.Basille.He wore a white cap and drove a white truck.As a 5-year-old boy,I couldn't take my eyes off the coin changer fixed to his belt.He noticed this one day during a delivery and gave me a quarter out of his coin changer.Of course,he delivered more than milk.There was cheese,eggs and so on.If we needed to change our order,my mother would pen a note——“Please add a bottle of buttermilk next delivery”—and place it in the box along with the empty bottles.And then,the buttermilk would magically appear.All of this was about more than convenience.There existed a close relationship between families and their milkmen.Mr.Basille even had a key to our house,for those times when it was so cold outside that we put the box indoors,so that the milk wouldn't freeze.And I remember Mr.Basille from time to time taking a break at our kitchen table,having a cup of tea and telling stories about his delivery.There is sadly no home milk delivery today.Big companies allowed the production of cheaper milk,thus making it difficult for milkmen to compete.Besides,milk is for sale everywhere,and it may just not have been practical to have a delivery service.Recently,an old milk box in the countryside I saw brought back my childhood memories.I took it home and planted it on the back porch(门廊).Every so often my son's friends will ask what it is.So I start telling stories of my boyhood,and of the milkman who brought us friendship along with his milk.【语篇导读】本文记叙文,作者使用夹叙夹议的写作手法回忆了自己小时候家人和送奶人之间的深厚友情,表达了作者对儿时生活及送奶人的怀念。

Three years ago, the president of Harvard, Lawrence H. Summers, got into trouble for questioning women’s“intrinsic (内在的)aptitude (能力)〞for science and engineering. Recently, a study paid for by America’s National Science Foundation has found that girls perform as well as boys on standardized math tests. Although boys in high school performed better than girls in math 20 years ago, the researchers found that is no longer the case. The reason, they said, is simple: Girls used to take fewer advanced math courses than boys, but now they are taking just as many.“Now that enrollment in advanced math courses is equalized, we don’t see gender differences in test performance,〞 said Marcia C. Linn of the University of California, Berkeley, a co-author of the study. “But people are surprised by these findings, which suggests to me that the stereotypes are still there.〞The researchers looked at the average test scores of all students, the performance of the most gifted children and the ability to solve complex math problems. They found, in every category, that girls did as well as boys.Janet Hyde, a professor at the University of Wisconsin, Madison, who led the study, said the stereotypes about girls and math, had taken a toll (造成伤害).“The stereotype that boys do better at math is still held widely by teachers and parents,〞hyde said. “And teachers and parents guide girls, giving them advice about what courses to take, what careers to pursue. I still hear anecdotes about guidance counselors (顾问)steering (指导)girls away from engineering, telling them they won’tbe able to do the math.〞The study also analyzed the gender gap on the math section of the SAT. Since more girls than boys go to college, about 100, 000 more girls than boys take the test, including lower-achieving girls who bring down the girls’ average score.1. What might be the reason to carry out the study?A. To put HarvardUniversity to shame for its president’s prejudice against girls.B. To find out if there’s any gender gap in science.C. To help girls to earn equal social status as boys.D. To enroll more girls in advanced math courses in the university.2. Which statement about people’s opinions of girls is NOT true?A. People still find it hard to believe average girls perform in math as well as boys.B. Highly educated people are more likely to accept the fact that girls can do well in math.C. Many teachers and parents advise girls to avoid careers like engineering based on their talent.D. Some guidance counselors think careers related with math are not suitable for girls.3. We can learn from the text EXCEPT ______.A. girls used to perform worse than boys in math because they didn’t take as many advanced math coursesB. the stereotype about girls and math may lead to misguided choice of future careersC. the average lower scores of girls in SAT math test prove that boys do better in mathD. the public doesn’t accept outspoken prejudice against girls’ talent for math despite the stereotype4. The main purpose of writing the passage is to______.A. report the findings of a research into girls’ math abilityB. criticize those who hold the wrong belief that girls cannot do well in mathC. prove that the stereotype that girls do worse in math is wrongD. help girls regain confidence in learning math well【参考答案】1—4、BBCA【由山东省2014模拟改编】阅读如下短文,从每题所给的四个选项〔A、B、C和D〕中,选出最优选项。

If you didn't look at them, they weren't there, right? On seeing those in rags on the corner, I only wanted the light to turn green fast enough so that I wouldn't have to keep pretending not to see them.Then, one day, as I was holding the hand of my best friend Jane who was young but dying of breast cancer, she told me that she made every moment count by slowing down and by seeing everything . I held her hand for five years and then she passed away. She did teach me something. It took a while for her words to really sink in. I can be a slow learner.I started by seeing everything, and focused on their presence. One day I saw a Vietnam veteran(老兵). I asked him what would make his day."A hot cup of coffee," he told me.I bought him a cup of coffee, a stack of pancakes, some eggs, and so on. After our meal together, I asked him if there was anything else that would make his life a bit easier."A new pair of socks, "he said.Socks, really? I actually happened to be wearing a nice pair of wool hiking socks at that very moment. I told him that I wanted to give him the pair I was wearing if he would accept it. Finally he agreed. We sat down on a bench, and he started to first take off his boots, and then remove the black socks that had once been white off his feet. I think a layer or two of skin might have come off with them. Taking his new pair of socks, he held the socks up to his cheeks and said they were warm and smelled as good as me, pools of tears in his eyes.Such a simple luxury (铺张品) I used to take for granted. Now I always have an extra pair with me in my car. They are always my best pair, just waiting to be given away.1. On seeing the homeless, the author used to_______.A. act as if they were not thereB. show mercy to themC. hide in the cornerD. make fun of them2.

To donate it to a needy person.4. What does the author want to convey to us?A. All men are born equal.B. Don't miss doing any good thing.C. A beggar's purse is bottomless.D.

More than 40 years ago,John Williams gave away all of his belongings and went off to the mountains to live the way people lived 100 years ago.For food he traps wild animals,fishes in the rivers,and plants whatever he can.John lives in a cabin he made by hand,out of trees he chopped down with an ax.Though he has no relatives he knows of,he does have a deer he raised from a fawn.The deer lives in the house in the winter and goes with John when he goes into the forest for food.Nobody lives within fifty miles of his cabin in the mountains and John has not been out of the mountains during the entire forty years.One day last year I hiked in to see how John lives.It was like going back in time.There were no roads,no stores,no noise,no pollution,not even a post office.Most notable of all,there were no people and that's just the way John Williams wants to keep his part of the world—without people.But there is a paradox in his story.John is an educated man.He has books and nobody knows how he got them.Mostly he reads about his world,the forest,the animals,the plants,and the mountains.He has seen airplanes flying overhead but does not want to know about them.For him,electricity is lightning,not light bulbs,refrigerators,televisions,or washing machines.John Williams is 85 years old and had not had a sick day in his life. He attributes his long life to the fact that it has nothing to do with people and in order that he might enjoy many more years of health,happiness,and solitude,I will not tell you where his kingdom lies.There is no room there for you or me.【文章大意】本文叙述了John Williams住进深山老林里四十多年里过着孤身一人的原始生活,并介绍了其生活的基本状况。

In the mid-1950s,I was a somewhat bored early-ado lescent male student who believed thatdoing_any_more_than_necessary_was_wasted_effort.One day,this approach threw me into embarrassment.In Mrs.Totten's eighth-grade math class at Central Avenue School in Anderson,Indiana,we were learning to add and subtract decimals (小数).Our teacher typically assigned daily homework,which would be recited in class the following day.On most days,our grades were based on our oral answers to homework questions.Mrs.Totten usually walked up and down the rows of desks requesting answers from student after student in the order the questions had appeared on our homework sheets.She would start either at the front or the back of the classroom and work toward the other end.Since I was seated near the middle of about 35 students,it was easy to figure out which questions I might have to answer.This particular time,I had completed my usual two or three problems according to my calculations.What I failed to expect was that several students were absent,which threw off my estimate.AsMrs.Totten made her way from the beginning of the class,I desperately tried to determine which math problem I would get.I tried to work it out before she got to me,but I had brain freeze and couldn't function.When Mrs.Totten reached my desk,she asked what answer I'd got for problem No.14.“I...I didn't get anything,”I answered,and my face felt warm.“Correct,”she said.It turned out that the correct answer was zero.What did I learn that day?First,always do all your homework.Second,in real life it isn't always what you say but how you say it that matters.Third,I would never make it as a mathematician. If I could choose one school day that taught me the most,it would be that one.1.What does the underlined part in Paragraph 1 indicate?A.It is wise to value one's time.B.It is important to make an effort.C.It is right to stick to one's belief.D.It is enough to do the necessary.2.Usually,Mrs.Totten asked her students to ________.A.recite their homework togetherB.grade their homework themselvesC.answer their homework questions orallyD.check the answers to their homework questions3.The author could work out which questions to answer since the teacher always ________. A.asked questions in a regular wayB.walked up and down when asking questionsC.chose two or three questions for the studentsD.requested her students to finish their usual questions4.The author failed to get the questions he had expected because ________.A.the class didn't begin as usualB.several students didn't come to schoolC.he didn't try hard to make his estimateD.Mrs.Totten didn't start from the back of the class5.Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A.An Unforgettable Teacher B.A Future MathematicianC.An Effective Approach D.A Valuable Lesson答案:【语篇解读】本文为记叙文。

2022高考英语二轮阅读理解一百六十集选练(49)及(解析)答案【阅读理解】Peanuts to ThisProudly reading my words, I glanced around the room, only to find my classmates bearing big smiles on their faces and tears in their eyes. Confused, I glanced toward my stone-faced teacher. Having no choice, I slowly raised the report I had slaved over, hoping to hide myself. “What could be causing everyone to act this way?”Quickly, I flashed back to the day Miss Lancelot gave me the task. This was the first real task I received in my new school. It seemed simple: go on the Internet and find information about a man named George Washington. Since my idea of history came from an ancient teacher in my home country, I had never heard of that name before. As I searched the name of this fellow, it became evident that there were two people bearing the same name who looked completely different! One invented hundreds of uses for peanuts, while the other led some sort of army across America. I stared at the screen, wondering which one my teacher meant. I called my grandfather for a golden piece of advice: flip(掷)acoin. Heads—the commander, and tails—the peanuts guy. Ah! Tails,my report would be about the great man who invented peanut butter, George Washington Carver.Weeks later, standing before this unfriendly mass, I was totally lost. Oh well, I lowered the paper and sat down at my desk, burning to find out what I had done wrong. As a classmate began his report, it all became clear,“My report is on George Washington, the man who started the American Revoluti on.” The whole world became quiet! How could I know that she meant that George Washington?Obviously, my grade was awful. Heartbroken but fearless, I decided to turn this around. I talked to Miss Lancelot, but she insisted: No re-dos; no new grade. I felt that the punishment was not justified, and I believed I deserved a second chance. Consequently, I threw myself heartily into my work for the rest of the school year. Ten months later, that chance unfolded as I found myself sitting in the headmaster's office with my grandfather, now having an entirely different conversation. I smiled and flashed back to the embarrassing moment at the beginning of the year as the headmaster informed me of my opinion to skip the sixth grade.
