2018届高考英语二轮专题复习专练:阅读理解推理判断题专练(4)
阅读理解推理判断题专练(四) 文章来源或读者对象类A(2017〃辽宁省部分重点高中第三次联考)Those who claim bananas are fattening argue that bananas cause the body to make lots of insulin (胰岛素), and insulin causes fat growth.How much insulin we produce is related to how fast food becomes sugar in our bloodstream. How can you know if food makes a lot of sugar quickly? The glycemic index (血糖指数), or GI rating tells us. Foods with GI scores above 75 are considered highGI foods, leading to faster sugar development. Bananas have a GI of 62, which is considered low.Weight loss can be a struggle for anyone, but it is especially hard for diabetics (糖尿病患者). A study looked at how the starch from unripe bananas affected the weight of a group of obese diabetics. After four weeks of a diet high in bananas, diabetics lost significantly more weight than on a control diet. They also saw improvements in insulin sensitivity from the banana diet.What's more, bananas have been shown to cut risks of strokes, diabetes and cancers (Bananas are the most powerful fruit for lowering the risk of kidney cancer.). Bananas are also a rich source of fiber, which has been shown to help weight loss. Bananas that still have some green on the skin are even higherin fiber.Skins from green bananas can be taken and, after removing the stem and dark tip, cut into small pieces 2 - 3 inches long and 1/2 inch wide. These pieces can be made into a tea or added to a dish. When you eat the skins, be sure you are eating organic bananas. The flesh of regular bananas is low in pesticides, but the skins are not.【解题导语】本文反驳了“吃香蕉会使人发胖”这一错误观点,告诉大家香蕉不会使身体分泌很多胰岛素而导致脂肪增加,相反,香蕉对身体健康有着诸多好处。
1.What conclusion can we draw from Paragraphs 1 & 2?A.Bananas are likely to make people fat.B.Insulin determines the amount of sugar.C.LowGI foods can turn into sugar more slowly.D.The faster the food becomes sugar, the less insulin.解析:C 考查推理判断。
根据第二段中“How can you know if food makes a lot of sugar quickly? The glycemic index (血糖指数)... faster sugar development”可知,血糖指数高的食物往往能更快地转化成糖分,反之,血糖指数低的食物转化成糖分的速度较慢。
故选C。
2.What does the author say about bananas?A.Including bananas in diets is good for health.B.Bananas can cure people suffering kidney cancer.C.Eating organic bananas protect people from strokes.D.Bananas' abundant fiber improves insulin sensitivity.解析:A 考查推理判断。
根据文章第三段中的“diabetics lost significantly more weight than on a control diet. They also saw improvements in insulin sensitivity from the banana diet”及第四段的“bananas have been shown to cut risks of strokes, diabetes and cancers... weight loss”可知,香蕉可以帮助人们减肥,也能降低人们患中风、糖尿病及癌症的风险,由此可得出这样的结论:将香蕉列入日常饮食对人们的健康有益,故选A。
3.What is discussed in the last paragraph?A.The use of banana skins.B.The benefits of banana skins.C.The importance of banana skins.D.The ways of choosing organic bananas.解析:A 考查主旨要义。
根据最后一段的内容尤其是“... can be made into a tea or added to a dish”可知,本段主要讲的是香蕉皮的用途。
故选A。
4.In which section of a newspaper can we read this passage?A.Education. B.Health.C.Culture. D.Science.解析:B 考查推理判断。
纵观全文可知,香蕉不仅有助于减肥,还能降低人们患中风、糖尿病及癌症的风险,而且香蕉皮也有用处。
由此可知,本文最有可能出现在报纸的健康专栏。
故选B。

2018届高三二轮复习英语精品资料【练案】专题5 阅读理解Ⅲ:推理判断题1.【2017·新课标全国III】DThe Intelligent Transport team at Newcastle University have turned an electric car into a mobile laboratory named “DriveLAB” in order to understand the challenges faced by older drivers and to discover where the key stress points are.Research shows that giving up driving is one of the key reasons for a fall in health and well—being among older people,leading to them becoming more isolated(隔绝)and inactive。
Led by Professor Phil Blythe, the Newcastle team are developing in-vehicle technologies for older drivers which they hope could help them to continue driving into later life。
These include custom-made navigation(导航)tools,night vision systems and intelligent speed adaptations。
Phil Blythe explains: “For many older people,particularly those living alone or in the country,driving is important for preserving their independence, giving them the freedom to get out and about without having to rely on oth ers.”“But we all have to accept that as we get older our reactions slow down and this often results in people avoiding any potentially challenging driving conditions and losing confidence in their drivingskills. The result is that people stop driving before they really need to。

第三讲推理判断题A(2017·湖北武汉高三调研)I felt like I had clicked my heels three times and come to a country away from home every morning as I walked through the doors at the Embassy of Australia in Washington.Musical Aussie accents and Aboriginal art exhibits made me wonder if I had entered without a visa. In fact I was a temporary employee,a public affairs unpaid intern(实习生) for three months during the summer in order to engage myself in the culture of the country where I planned to study the next spring.During the summer I read the Australian news every day. Working at the embassy allowed me to escape the U.S.for six hours per day and learn about what was going on across the planet.After reading the daily Australian and U.S.news I usually helped prepare a PowerPoint presentation for school kids who visited the embassy as part of a school activity. Depending on whether an embassy event was going on,I would attend weekly meetings to listen to planning and see what I could do to ually there were smaller tasks to be done such as creating visitors’ guides.The most fantastic event in which I participated was the visit of the Australian Prime Minister. As the only American among countless Australian media and staff, I felt comfortable and was kept busy taking pictures and recor ding doorstop interviews at famous sites such as the Capitol. As an intern, you will not be exposed to topsecret information, but you are on the inside when it comes to special events.Government work is a useful addition to one’s experience. As an embassy employee you will gain invaluable knowledge while spending your summer in a culturally diverse workplace.[解题导语] 本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了作者为了要到澳大利亚学习提前在位于华盛顿的澳大利亚驻美国大使馆实习的经历。

阅读理解提升练(四)推理判断题A(2017·浙江五校联考)I have always thought of myself as a doer.In work,I definitely was and continue to be.As a mom,I’m mostly a doer.However,my treatment for breast cancer made me realize I had not been a doer in the way I wanted to be—but that was about to change.I have been afraid of flying since I worked in news and covered many plane crashes and had my own horrific experience.My family had never been to another continent together.Now that the chemo(化疗)was over,as a gift to myself,my kids and my mom,I took them all to London to celebrate life before beginning radiation every weekday for six weeks.This time I decided not to think too much about it.When you look in the mirror without hair,you do your best to get through your day as if it were a day before you discovered your lump(肿瘤).Then everything seems doable.So I just booked the trip.Our flight on British Airways was my best ever.I don’t know if it was the size of the plane,the comfort of the seats,the TVs or the family friendliness that made the time fly byfor me.On every flight,I say a quick hello to the pilot,which calms me.This time,the pilot took extra time to explain the maps and weather patterns and calmed me down.That certainly helped a bit,or was it possible that the chemo cured this fear too?Every day I planned a different adventure—everything from tours of Buckingham Palace and Windsor Castle to the original bus tour.They learned and loved every minute andshockingly,they didn’t complain.I had wanted to do so for years.Life and work had gotten in the way,but we finally didit.I planned this incredible trip during chemo and will plan another.Sometimes,the best adventures come after surviving your greatest fears.1.The underlined word“it”in Paragraph3refer s to.A.her fear of flyingB.her breast cancerC.the finished chemoD.the planned family trip2.On the author’s family’s trip to London,.A.the author overcame her fear of flying thanks to her familyB.the kids were not so interested in the places they visitedC.the family enjoyed themselves during different adventuresD.the family didn’t visit many places because of the author’s health condition3.The best title for the text would be.A.Cancer Gets in the WayB.Surviving the FearC.Living a Plain LifeD.A Successful Doer as Mom〚009〛B(2017·北京)It was a cold March day in High Point,North Carolina.The girls on the Wesleyan Academy softball team were waiting for their next turns at bat during practice,stamping their feet to stay warm.Eight h-grader Taylor Bisbee shivered(发抖)a little as she watched her teammate Paris White play.The two didn’t know each other well—Taylor had just moved to town a month or so before.Suddenly,Paris fell to the ground,“Paris’s eyes rolled back,”Taylor says.“She started shaking.I knew it was an emergency.”It certainly was.Paris had suffered a sudden heart failure.Without immediate medical care,Paris would die.At first,no one moved.The girls were in shock.Then the softball coach shouted out,“Does anyone know CPR?”CPR is a life-saving technique.To do CPR,you press on the sick person’s chest so that blood moves through the body and takes oxygen to organs.Without oxygen,the brain is damaged quickly.Amazingly,Taylor had just taken a CPR course the day before.Still,she hesitated.Shedidn’t think she knew it well enough.But when no one else came forward,Taylor ran to Paris and began doing CPR.“It was scary.I knew it was the difference between life and death,”says Taylor.Taylor’s swift action helped her teammates calm down.One girl called911.Two more ran to get the school nurse,who brought a defibrillator,an electronic devices(器械)that can shock the heart back into work.Luck stayed with them:Paris’s heartbeat returned.“I know I was really lucky,”Paris says now.“Most people don’t survive this.My team saved my life.”Experts say Paris is right:For a sudden heart failure,the single best chance for survival is having someone nearby step in and do CPR quickly.Today,Paris is back on the softball team.Taylor will apply to college soon.She wants to be a nurse.“I feel more confident in my actions now,”Tayl or says.“I know I can act under pressure in a scary situation.”4.What happened to Paris on a March day?A.She caught a bad cold.B.She had a sudden heart problem.C.She was knocked down by a ball.D.She shivered terribly during practice.5.Why does Paris say she was lucky?A.She made a worthy friend.B.She recovered from shock.C.She received immediate CPR.D.She came back on the softball team.6.Which of the following words can best describe Taylor?A.Enthusiastic and kind.B.Courageous and calm.C.Cooperative and generous.D.Ambitious and professional.〚010〛C(原创)China was poor and backward compared to the rest of the world up until a few decadesago,but that changed and it’s changing so fast.It’s simply fascinating.China offers the unlimited amount of different activities for having fun.The nightclubs here are giant stadiums with IMAX3D screen;they have things like escape rooms,unbelievable theme parks,outdoor natural parks and much more.Technologically,China is of course advanced in many ways.For example,electrictransport(交通运输系统)has been highly developed here for years.You can find electricbikes,personal transportation vehicles,electric taxis and cars,even electric buses.The Chinese messenger app(WeChat)is very advanced and makes it easy to pay for what you want to buy and much more;it’s a technology marvel.In most places you won’t see any police.In some others they are present in security(安全工作)posts.They just do their job—sit there silently and behave reasonably,adding to the security and order.China has the27th lowest murder(谋杀)rate in all218countries and regions.Murder rate in US is4.7,while the rate in China is1.0.I’ll give you an example from the city I live in,Shenzhen.There are two giant parks Ilive near.I regularly go walking through those parks at2AM or later.I wouldn’t try doingthat in San Francisco or New York City.Last time I got scared in the park,it was4AM and I heard a strange noise from behind the trees.I went around the corner to see and there was an elderly couple practicing Tai Chi.7.What does the second paragraph mainly talk about?A.Technology.B.Pleasure.C.People’s health.D.Fastest growing economy.8.What makes payments easy in China?A.WeChat.puters.C.3D screen.D.Electric transport.9.What do the police do in some places in China?A.They can rest for a long time.B.They can earn a lot of money.C.They keep the security and order.D.They have enough time to look after their family.。

阅读理解题型突破(一)直接信息理解类(2017·陕西西安九校高三年级联考)AMy elder brother Steve gave me important lessons in values that helped me grow into an adult after our father died when I was six.For instance,Steve taught me to face the results of my behavior. Once when I returned in tears from a Saturday baseball game,Steve took time to ask me what had happened.When I explained that my baseball had broken Mrs Holt’s basement window,Steve encouraged me to confess to it.After all,I should have been playing in the park and not in the path between buildings.Although my knees knocked as I explained to Mrs Holt,I offered to pay for the window if she would return my ball.I also learned from Steve that personal property (财产)is a sacred thing.After I found a shiny silver pen in my fifth-grade classroom, I wanted to keep it, but Steve explained that it might be important to someone else.I returned the pen to my teacher,Mrs Davids,and she praised me.Yet of all the instructions Steve gave me,his respect for life is the most vivid in my mind.When I was twelve,I killed an old brown sparrow in the yard with a BB gun.Excited with my accuracy,I screamed to Steve to come from the house to take a look.I shall never forget the way he stood for a long moment and stared at the bird on the ground.Then in a dead,quiet voice,he asked,“Did it hurt you first,Mark?”I didn’t know what to answer.He continued with his eyes firm,“ The only time you should even think of hurting a living thing is whether it hurts you first.And then you think a long,long time.”I really felt terrible then,but that moment stands out as the most important lesson my brother taught me.语篇解读本文是一篇记叙文,介绍了“我”的哥哥陪伴“我”成长的经历:他鼓励“我”勇于承担打碎窗户的责任;向老师送回捡到的钢笔;他还教育“我”尊重生命。

专题4 阅读理解Ⅱ:细节理解题班级姓名学号分数(测试时间:45分钟)1.【湖北八校2018届高三上学期第一次联考】CCities are likely to be affected by overheating, thanks to something called the urban heat island effect. Cities tend to be short of trees, which provide shade, and they are covered with black pavement, which absorbs heat from the sun. Think of how it feels to wear a dark shirt versus a white shirt on a sunny day. A black shirt absorbs light, heating you up. But a white shirt reflects light, keeping you cool.The average temperature in a city of a million or more people can be more than 5 degrees F hotter than surrounding areas. That extra 5 degrees can turn a hot day from uncomfortable to deadly. As temperatures rise, cities will be an especially dangerous place to be during a heat wave. To protect public health, city officials are going to make the city cooler.As part of that effort, Los Angeles is coating its roads in CoolSeal, a gray paint that keeps streets and parking lots 10 degrees cooler than black asphalt(沥青). It will help Angelinos save money during the summer, when air conditioning sends power bills soaring. And it will save lives by lowering temperatures and improving air quality. Hot weather worsens air pollution by turning car exhaust into smog, which can make life miserable for people with asthma(哮喘)and other breathing problems.Of course, LA will have to do more than paint over a few streets to cool off the city. Angelinos will also need to plant more trees and apply white paint to rooftops — a t least those not already covered in solar panels. While LA is a pioneer of reflective streets, other cities, like New York, are already experimenting with reflective roofs or, like Melbourne, lowering the temperature by planting trees. LA is hardly alone in its effort to stay cool.“This is an urgent challenge, and it’s much bigger than one person,” said Mayor Garcetti in a recent statement. “Climate change is a fact of life that people in Los Angeles and cities around the world live with every day.”8. Which of the following contributes to the urban heat island effect?A. Planting more trees in the streets.B. Covering the streets with white paint.C. Applying reflective paint to rooftops.D. Furnishing every house with air conditioners.9. What should the city officials emphasize during hot summer?A. How to make the city cooler.B. Where to wear a white shirt.C. Why to coat the roads with black paint.D. When to cut off the electricity supply.10. What benefit can people gain from the use of CoolSeal?A. Increasing the indoor activities.B. Promoting the sale of air conditioners.C. Making life easier and more comfortable.D. Reducing the number of cold days.【答案】8. D 9. A 10. C9. A【名题点睛】细节理解题一一对应型。

阅读理解推理判断题专练(一) 细节推断类A(2017·云南省昆明市高三复习教学质量检测)The Masai are a people who are constantly trying to preserve their own ways in an increasingly modern world. They live along the border of Kenya and Tanzania, moving their homes from time to time to follow their cattle, the source of their living.The Masai have become known as a people of fighters, protecting their cattle against lions and other enemies. Only men are fighters. They wear long hair, which is colored red with clay. They can have more than one wife. Women build and take care of the home, fixing food and making clothing. Women and children keep their heads shaved. Women can also become elders,_once they have given birth to four healthy children.The Masai depend on their cattle for many parts of their life. They drink cow's milk and blood as sacred drinks. They use the cows' waste to cover and seal their homes. They don't kill their cattle for food, but if a cow is killed, then the horns (角) are used for containers; the hides are used to make shoes, clothing, ropes and bed coverings; and the bones are made into decorations.The more cattle a man owns, the richer he is considered to be. A man who owns 50 or fewer cattle is considered poor. A “rich” man has a thousand or more. The cattle, though owned by the man, are considered to belong to the man's entire family. The family names the cattle and can recognize each animal's unique voice.Masai houses are made from sticks and grass, but they are meant to be temporary, since the move of their cattle means that the Masai move as well.【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了马赛人的情况。

高考高三英语二轮专题复习:阅读理解(附参考答案) ATERNANG,Mon—More than 10 000 people were made homeless in Ternang when the Sungai Mas overflowed its banks yesterday after six days of continuous heavy rain.Flooding first appeared at mid-afternoon yesterday along the river banks.People straggling higher ground were just in time to get away from the destroy of the flood.Most of the flood victims had to leave their possessions behind.The flood victims are now housed in various make-shift relief centers in the nearby town of Tu lang.“Everything possible is being done to help the unfortunate people.”A government spokesman said,“In fact,money,food and clothing have begun to come in from p ublic-spirited organizations and generous persons.”According to latest reports it is still raining heavily at Ternang.The whole town is expected to be totally covered by water.So far no casualty has been reported.56.According to the latest report .A.it had been raining for six daysB.more than 10 000 people had no place to liveC.the town had already been totally floodedD.the government tried its best to help the homeless people57.With the help of the government,the flood victims .A.were safe at higher placeB.got everything they neededC.lived comfortably in the relief centersD.were brought to Tulang within three hours58.The word “casualty”in the last sentence means .A.the house that is being builtB.the money that is given to the victimsC.the person killed or injured in an accidentD.the things lost in the floodBGlynis Davis:I first piled on the ponds when I was in the family way and I couldn’t lose them afterwards.Then I joined a slimming club.My target was 140 pounds and I lost 30 pounds in six months.I felt great and people kept saying how good I looked.But Christmas came and I started to slip back into my old eating habits.I told myself I’d lose the weight at slimming classes in the new year…but it didn’t happen.Instead of losing the pounds.I put them on.I’d lost willpower and tried to believe that the old bage of fish and chips didn’t make any difference but the scales don’t lie.Roz Juma:To be honest,I never weigh myself any more I’ve leant to be happy with myself.It seemed to me that I would feel sorry about every spoonful of tasty food that passed my lips.My idea is simple.You shouldn’t be too much thinking about food and dieting.Instea d,you should get on with life and stop dreaming of a supper-thin body.This is obviously the size I’m meant to be and,most of all.I’m happy with it.Lesley Codwin:I was very happy about winning Young Silmmer of the Year.I’d look in the mirror unable to believe this slim lady was me!That might have been my problem——perhaps from then on I didn’t pay any attention to myself.Winning a national competition makes everything worse,though,because you feel the eyes of the world are fixed upon you.I feel a complete failure because I’ve put onweight again.Ros Langfod:Before moving in with my husband Gavin,I’d always been about 110 pounds,but th e pleasant housework went straight to my waist and I put on 15 pounds in a year.Every so often I try to go on a diet …I’m really good on a few days,then end up having the childr en’s leftovers or eating happily chocolate——my weakness.I’d like to be slim,but right now my duty is the children and home.I might take more exercise when my kids are older.59.What do you think

club.B.Some tool to measure weight.C.Glynis Davis’dear husband.D.The salesperson in a food shop.62.Which of the following best describes each of the four women’s attitudes towards slimming?1.Glynis Davis a.I put on weight soon after got married2.Ros Jums b.Fame(名声)doesn’t necessarily mean success3.Leslcy Gowin c.Facts speak much louder than words4.Ros landford d.I like myself as I am,and to be

to life in the NBA if they go.Wang Zhizhi,the 2.16-metre center for the Bayi Rockets who was chosen by the Dallas Mavericks two years ago,has finally received permission from authorities to travel to Dallas to play for the rest of the NBA season after he finishes playing in the Chinese Basketball Association’s finals on March 25th.If he has no problems with his visa(签证),Wang will be the NBA’s first Asian player.Wang was chosen by the Mavericks in the second round of the 1999 draft but the Rockets,and army-run club,refused to let him go.After negotiations(谈判)between the Rockets and NBA representatives(代表),the decision was made to allow Wang the chance to try his hand at American basketball,but only for a period of short time.He has to be back to play in the Ninth National Games in November in Guangzhou.Another center who has attracted attention from the NBA is Yao Ming,the 2.25-meter star who has led to the Shanghai Sharks into the finals fight with the Rockets this year.The 20-year-old’s NBA dreams might be harder to realize.Yao is the center of the Sharks and the club’s manager Bei Genyuan has said that he would allow Yao to go only at a proper time,for a proper team and under proper conditions.Yao hasn’t been chosen yet and it is unlikely that he will be any time soon.People in the Shark’s front office earlier told members of the press that “it is not proper for Yao to attend the draft thisyear”because he has to represent Shanghai in the Ninth National Games.Even if Wang and Yao make it to the promised land of basketball at last,analysts on both sides of the Pacific have said the NBA road will be a long one for both of them.Besides needing to work on their upper body strength,Wang and Yao will also have to adapt(适应)to the speed,techniques and above all,culture of the NBA.63.Yao Ming has attracted attention from NBA because .A.he is 2.25 metres tall,who is the tallest basketball player in ChinaB.he is the center of the Shanghai Sharks and has led Sharks into the final fight with the RocketsC.he is regarded as the best basketball player in ChinaD.he is thought highly of in the international world64.Yao Ming can play for NBA if .A.there is no problem with his visaB.NBA agrees to supply favorable conditions for himC.time and conditions are properD.NBA can pay a large sum of money for Sharks65.The underlined phrase“try his hand”in the passage probably means .A.初试身手B.碰碰运气C.成为一员D.为其效劳66.NBA chose Wang Zhizhi so that .A.it can show NBA need talentsB.Wang Zhizhi can have a bright futureC.its whole level will be improvedD.it can make
