李仕才

A

In 1959, when Jean Harper was in the third grade, her teacher gave the class an assignment to write a report on what they wanted to be when they grew up.

Jean’s father was a crop dusting pilot in the little farming community in N orthern California where she was raised, and Jean was very interested in airplanes and flying. She poured her heart into her report and included all of her dreams. She wanted to be a crop dusting pilot, make parachute jumps(跳伞), and be an airline pilot. Her paper came back with an "F" on it. The teacher told her it was a "fairy tale" and that none of the occupations she listed were women’s jobs. Jean was devastated and humiliated.

One day in her senior year of high school, her English teacher Mrs Dorothy Slaton gave the class an assignment. "If you had unlimited money, unlimited access to the finest schools, and unlimited talents and abilities, what would you do?" Jean felt a rush of her old enthusiasm, and with excitement she wrote down all her old dreams. The teacher leaned forward over her desk and said, "You do have unlimited abilities and talents. When you leave school, if you don’t go for your dreams, no one will do it for you. You can have what you want if you want it enough."

The hurt and fear of years of discouragement went away because of what Mrs Slaton had said. Jean felt excited and a little scared. She stayed after class and went up to the teacher’s desk. Jean thanked Mrs Slaton and told her about her dream of becoming a pilot. Mrs Slaton half rose and slapped the desk top. "Then do it!" she said.

So Jean did. It didn’t happen overnight. It took her 10 years of hard work. It wasn’t in Jean’s nature to stand up for herself when someone refused or humiliated her. Instead, she would quietly try to find another way.

She became a private pilot and then flew planes as a co-pilot (副驾驶员). In 1978, she became one of the first three female pilot trainees ever accepted by United Airlines and one of the only 50 women airline pilots in the nation at that time. Some years later, Jean Harper became a Boeing 737 captain for United Airlines.

1.When Jean Harper was in the third grade, _________.

A.it was common for women to be airline pilots

B. her father advised her to be a pilot like him in the future

C. she was unsure about what she wanted to be when she grew up

D. she was deeply hurt by her teacher’s comment on her dreams

2.What was Mrs Slaton’s reaction when she learned about Jean Harper’s dream?

A. Encouraging Jean to do what she wanted to.

B. Offering Jean as much help as she could.

C. Persuading Jean to give up her dream.

D. Making Jean aware of all the possible difficulties.

3.What is the last paragraph mainly about?

A. How Jean Harper achieved her flying dream.

B. Jean Harper’s great achievements in flying.

C. The hardships Jean Harper experienced when trying to be a pilot.

D.A teacher’s humiliation when she was in the third grade.

(2015·辽宁五校联盟第一次联考)

As globalization continues to make the world a smaller place,and goods become more accessible across borders,c oncerns about food safety in the Asia-Pacific region have steadily risen over the years.An APEC forum is being held in Beijing,to find ways to better address the problem.

156 participants from 19 APEC economies and 4 non-APEC members attended the APEC Food Safety Cooperation Forum,which has been actively looking for ways to strengthen food safety standard in the region,without affecting trade.

“As consumers are faced with more varieties of food,the potential food safety risk also becomes bigger.This forum has helped APEC economies to cooperate in supervision (监督),exchange information,and improve the overall food safety standard in the Asia-Pacific region,” said director of China’s General Administration of Quality Supervision Wu Qinghai.

For the first time the forum has brought together high-level regulators,academics,and industry stakeholders to talk about their respective roles in safety supervision.They say governments alone cannot shoulder this heavy duty.

In China,the continuous food safety problems have greatly hurt

consumers’confidence in domestic products;therefore more turned to imports.However,problems related to quality of those imported goods also began to show.In July this year,more than 400 batches (批) of food imported from 35 countries and regions were found substandard by the country’s top quality supervisor.

Governments and industries have been brought closer by this forum.As food moves more freely beyond borders,this forum is hoped to promote safety control cooperation,so APEC members can better benefit from the economic integration(经济一体化).1.What kind of function can the forum play?

A.It has greatly influenced the economy in the area.

B.It has long been able to put every side’s efforts together.

C.It helps to bring government regulators and industries together.

D.It has found ways to deal with safety problems.

2.The last but one paragraph tells us that ________.

A.the Chinese customers are more satisfied with their food safety

B.food imported from other countries is indeed high in quality

C.many Chinese customers would rather buy some foreign food

D.there are only 35 countries and regions exporting food to China

3.The underlined word “address” in the first paragraph can be replaced by “________”.

A.send a letter about

B.deal with

C.deliver a speech on

D.call off

4.According to the article,which of the following statements is WRONG?

A.People can buy foreign food more easily than ever.

B.The more varieties of food,the bigger the potential food safety risk.

C.Food safety problems have appeared many times before this forum.

D.Governments have started their cooperation with academies and industries before this forum.

【解题导语】通过APEC论坛,各国之间将更加密切地合作,食品安全问题将得到更有效的监管和处理,各成员国都会从中受益。

1.解析:选C。细节理解题。根据第四段中的“the forum has brought together high-level regulators,academics,and industry stakeholders to talk about their respective roles in safety supervision”可知,应选C项。

2.解析:选C。细节理解题。根据第五段中的“the continuous food safety problems have greatly hurt consumers’confidence in domestic products;therefore more turned to imports.However,problems related to quality of those imported goods also began to show”可知,连续的国内食品安全问题伤害了消费者的信心,他们更加愿意买进口产品,但是进口食品的质量问题也开始显现,即C项正确,A、B项错误;文中第五段的最后一句表示来自35个国家和地区的超过400批次的进口食品不达标而非只有35个国家和地区向中国出口食品,故D项错误。

3.解析:选B。词义猜测题。根据全文大意可知,各国通过APEC论坛加强合作,积极寻求更好的方法来解决食品安全问题。由此可推知,B项“处理,解决”与address含义相近。

4.解析:选D。细节理解题。根据第一段中的“and goods become more accessible across borders,concerns about food safety in the Asia-Pacific region have steadily risen over the years”可知,A、C项表述正确;根据第三段中的“As consum ers are faced with more varieties of food,the potential food safety risk also becomes bigger.”可知,

B项表述正确,D项与第四段的第一句不符,故选D项。

阅读下列短文, 从给的四个选项 (A、B、C和D) 中, 选出最佳选项。

Since the 1970s, scientists have been searching for ways to link the brain with computers. Brain-computer interface(BCI) technology could help people with disabilities send commands to machines.

Recently, two researchers, Jose Millan and Michele Tavella from the Federal Polytechnic school in Lausanne, Switzerland, demonstrated(展示)a small robotic w heelchair directed by a person’s thoughts.

In the laboratory, Tavella operated the wheelchair just by thinking about moving his left or right band. He could even talk as he watched the vehicle and guided it with his thoughts.

“our brain has billions of ner ve ceils. These send signals through the spinal cord (脊髓)to the muscles to give us the ability to move. But spinal cord injuries or other conditions can prevent these weak electrical signals from reaching the muscles,” Tavella says. “Our system allows dis abled people to communicate with external world and also to control devices.”

The researchers designed a special cap for the user. This head cover picks up the signals from the scalp(头皮) and sends them to a computer. The computer interprets the signals and commands the motorized wheelchair. The wheelchair also has two cameras that identify objects in its path. They help the computer react to commands from the brain.

Prof. Millan, the team leader, says scientists keep improving the computer software that interprets brain signals and turns them into simple commands. “The practical possibilities that BCI technology offers to disabled people can be grouped in two categories: communication, and controlling devices. One example is this wheelchair.”He says his team has set two goals. One is testing with real patients, so as to prove that this is a technology they can benefit front. And the other is to guarantee that they can use the technology over long periods of time.

1.BCI is a technology that can

A. help to update computer systems

B. link the human brain with computers

C. help the disabled to recover

D. control a person's thoughts

2. How" did Tavella operate the wheelchair in the laboratory?

A. By controlling his muscles.

B. By talking to the machine.

C. By moving his hand.

D. By using his mind.

3. Which of the following shows the path of the signals described in Paragraph 5?

A. scalp → computer →cap →wheelchair

B. computer →cap →scalp →wheelchair

C. scalp →cap →computer →wheelchair

D. cap → compute →scalp →wheelchair

4. The team will test with real patients to

A. make profits from them

B. prove the technology useful to them

C. make them live longer

D. learn about their physical condition

5. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?

A. Switzerland, the BCI Research Center

B. New Findings About How the Human Brain Works

C. BCI Could Mean More Freedom for the Disabled

D. Robotic Vehicles Could Help to Cure Brain Injuries

【文章大意】科普说明文。本文介绍了BCI脑机接口技术,它是帮助残疾人向机器输送指令。【参考方案】1---5、BDCBC

键词应该出现在标题中,选B。

(2015·沈阳质量检测一)

When Shakespeare was twenty-one,he went to London,a very interesting place,to try his fortune.

There was the famous London Bridge and St.Paul’s Cathedral,and palaces and markets and long streets full of shops.

Then,too,there were the daily crowds where could be seen people from all over the world.Knights,scholars and highwaymen (拦路强盗) or thieves who had been infamous for their clever robberies,passed by each other.

Here,also,were noblemen dressed in gold,from Italy,Spain and France;slaves from Spanish America,sea captains and ministers,soldiers and servants—all held by chances or interests within the gray walls which circled London,and whose gates gave welcome to as strange a crowd as could be found in the world.

Into this curious crowd came Shakespeare,quick to see and eager to learn.And before long all these strange sights were as familiar to him as the faces of his own town’

s residents.Each one told its story to him so plainly that,as before he had learned the secrets of the fields and woods,so now he learned men and men’s interests that make up the great world.

And he learned these lessons so well that when he came to write his plays,he made such use of them as no writer ever made before or since;for it is the use of this knowledge of the world,combined with his own genius,that makes Shakespeare the greatest dramatist that has ever lived.

1.What was London like in Shakespeare’s eyes when he first went there?

A.Dirty and small.

B.Strange and interesting.

C.Infamous and terrible.

D.Familiar and modern.

2.Which of the following best describes Shakespeare?

A.Shakespeare got inspiration to write from his hometown, London.

B.Shakespeare was eager to make friends with the noblemen in London.

C.Shakespeare was good at observing and learning from the daily life.

D.Shakespeare became the greatest dramatist owing to his own genius.

3.What does the underlined word “one” in Paragraph 5 refer to?

A.Crowd. B.Sight.

C.Face. D.Resident.

4.The passage probably comes from________.

A.a poster B.a textbook

C.an advertisement D.an announcement

【解题导语】本文主要讲述了莎士比亚到伦敦后的经历,他很快适应了那里的生活,并把自己所观察到的事情融入自己的创作中。

1.解析:选B。细节理解题。根据第一段中的“a very interesting place”和第五段中的“all these strange sights”可知,在Shakespeare的眼中,伦敦是一个有趣而陌生的城市,即B项正确。

2.解析:选C。推理判断题。根据第五段可知,Shakespeare来到伦敦不久之后,通过观察和学习了解了伦敦,并适应了那里的生活,由此可推断出,Shakespeare擅长观察日常生活并从中学习,故C项正确。

3.解析:选B。词义猜测题。画线词后的“as before he h ad learned the secrets of the fields and woods”的意思为“正如他以前所学到的田野和树林的秘密那样”,根据这句话可知,one指的是像田野和树林一样的景象,故B项正确。

4.解析:选B。推理判断题。本文主要讲述了莎士比亚到伦敦的经历,所以这篇文章最有可能出现在一本教材中,故B项正确。

高考英语阅读理解专项训练100篇(附答案)

高考英语阅读理解专项训练100篇 (名师传授解题技巧+实战练习,值得下载) 一、阅读理解解题技巧 阅读理解题是考查学生对活的语言材料的理解能力,即通过阅读材料获得信息的能力。具体说来,阅读理解能力测试的主要要求是:(1)掌握所读材料的主旨大意,以及用以说明主旨大意的事实和细节;(2)既理解具体事实,也理解抽象的概念;(3)既理解字面意思,也理解深层含义,包括作者的态度、意图等;(4)既理解某句、某段的意义,也理解全篇的逻辑关系,并能根据文章进行推理和判断;(5)既能根据材料所提供的信息去理解,也能结合中学生应有的常识去理解。根据这几项能力测试的要求,试题中常采用如下几种题型:事实询问题、推理判断题、数据推算题、识图解意题和主旨大意题。根据这一测试要求和题型设计,答题时可以采取如下解题技巧和对策。 1.首先解题时要充满自信。由于平时有些同学对做阅读理解时存在一种畏惧心理,因此考试做题时心理就难免会产生紧张感,特别是阅读时再遇到几个生词就头脑发胀,从而使自己的思路更加模糊不清。其实这是完全没有必要的,因为阅读中遇到几个生词或几个难以理解的句子是常有的事,也是正常现象。因为按大纲要求,试卷中允许有不超过3%的生词,只要认真分析,仔细阅读,这些生词和句子很可能并不影响你的解题。所以答题之前首先要有必胜的信心。 2.扫读全文,理解全文主旨大意。拿到一篇文章,首先要快速扫读全文,虽为扫读,但不可漫不经心,阅读时也应聚精会神,力求可能多地获取材料信息,只是这次遇到生词和难句先不必去处理,不要因纠缠文中的个别生词和难句而影响了对全文的主旨大意的了解。

3.对症下药,各个击破。了解全文的大概意思之后,再把短文的问题简单看一遍,弄懂题意,然后带着问题再去寻读全文。这次阅读过程中要善于抓文章中的关键词句。寻读也就是迅速的查找需要了解的信息,是为某些特定的问题而阅读,因此阅读时要有较强的针对性,对与问题有关的数据,词句等仔细阅读,认真理解,同时结合不同考查内容的题型,采取如下解题对策: (1)事实询问题:这类试题通常是以疑问词what,who,when,where,why,how 等引起的特殊问句,就文章中某一词语、某一句子、某一段落或某一具体细节和事实进行提问。解答此类试题首先要弄清题目和每一个选项的含义,然后按题目要求寻找与之相关的细节,正确估计答案来源,同时注意题目和文章中的暗示作用。特别注意辨别各种信息,确认各种信息。 (2)推理判断题:此题要求我们通过表面文字信息去推测文章隐含的意思,对文章的发展情节及作者的态度、意图等做出合乎逻辑的的推理判断。这种题要求我们在阅读时要抓住文章的主题和细节、从分析文章的结构入手,根据上下文的内在联系,充分挖掘文章的深层含义。对暗含在文章中事件的因果关系,人物的动机,以及作者未言明的倾向、态度、意图、观点进行合乎逻辑的推理、分析和判断。同时善于抓住文中实质性的东西,不要被带假象的表面信息或似是而非的东西所迷惑。并且注意推断作者态度时要力求从作者的态度、观点去思考,切勿想当然,凭个人的观点习惯看法来回答的问题。 (3)数据推算题:此题要求我们就文章提供的数据,以及数据与文章中其他信息的关系做出计算和推断,然后做出选择。这就要求我们解题时,要在理解好题意的前提下去对与数据有关的信息认真分析,若数据信息较多,还要注意弄清数据之间的关系,同时分清有用与无用信息,最终作出正确判断。 (4)主旨大意题:此题用以考查我们对文章主题或中心思想的领会和理解能力。在解答此类试题时要注意每段的中心句,抓住每一段的主题句。一般主题句都用来表达一段主旨大意,因此,只要找准每段的主题句,文章的中心思想和文章的最佳标题也就不难确定了。

The Model T Ford was built at the Piquette Plant in Michigan a century ago, with the first rolling off the assembly line(装配线) on September 27,1908.Only eleven cars were produced the next month. But eventually Henry Ford would build fifteen million of them. Modern America was born on the road, behind a wheel. The car shaped some of the most lasting aspects o f American culture: the roadside diner, the billboard, the motel, even the hamburger. For most of the last century, the car represented what it meant to be American—going forward at high speed to find new worlds. The road novel, the road movie, these are the most typical American ideas, born of abundant petrol, cheap cars and a never-ending interstate highway system, the largest public works project in history. pot and In 1928 Herbert Hoover imagined an America with“ a chicken in every a car in every garage.” Since then, this society has moved onward, never looking back, as the car transformed America from a farm-based society into an industrial power. The cars that drove the American Dream have helped to create a global ecological disaster. In America the demand for oil has grown by 22 percent since 1990.

高三英语阅读理解(带详解)

I watched from a distance as the homeless man quarreled with those who did not leave money for him – the majority. I walked up to him and right on queue he asked me for a quarter. ―I’ll give you a quarter if you tell me your story.‖ He laughed, ―You’ll give me a quarter for my story?‖ I lay the quarter in front of him and corrected myself –―Nah, here’s the quarter but it would be nice to hear your story.‖ I followed his eyes to the quarter and for a brief moment I saw a glimmer of reflection. I sat down next to him and waited. ―I was in the army,‖ he said. ―I was a sniper(狙击手)and was supposed to shoot down the enemy from the distance.‖ I listened carefully to his grizzly voice as he went deeper into the story. He wore dirty old torn clothes and smelled like a dead rat left in a mouse trap. He told me how he used to hunt with his family and was really good at it. He had his own way of respecting animals by not wasting what he killed for food and not killing more than he needed. When the army came knocking on his door, he felt pride and joined up. All those years of polishing his hunting skills could now serve a larger purpose—to defend us from the bad guys. He set out to fight in Iraq. It wasn’t long before he realized his ideals and expectations were just a shadow of the truth. He became disillusioned with the killings, which he felt were of innocent people. ―I was a sniper but I never really killed anyone,‖ he said. ―One day I had to do it. They asked me to shoot this lady from the distance. I saw kids near that lady and my hands were on the trigger (扳机). Man, I was tearing up ... I couldn’t do it. She wasn’t doing anything to anyone and she was with the kids—I couldn’t see through my tears. It just didn’t make any sense to me.‖ The story goes on as he describes eventually being put into prison for 180 days for refusing to follow orders. He told me how he was black listed so that he couldn’t get a job. All the rights we take for granted were taken away from him. Why? Here was a man who was being punished—and for what? For refusing to kill the lady? For being a hero? ―I have no regrets,‖ the homeless man said. ―I may be homeless now, but I never killed that lady. I never killed anyone in the army. It didn’t feel right. I didn’t go there to do that. I went there to save people.‖ He continued, ―I can live with being homeless—that’s okay. But I wouldn’t be able to live with killing innocent people.‖ On that lonely Friday night, I met a hero. It just never occurred to me that a hero could be a smelly old man left on streets. 1. It can be learned from the passage that the homeless man_______. () A. never killed animals B. had a strong respect for life C. deserved the punishment he received D. felt guilty about disobeying the order

2019年高考英语七选五 专题训练及答案

高考七选五专题训练 根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 一 I started working at Pizza Hut in December 1989, when I was a freshman in high school. All new employees started by washing dishes and busing tables. If they proved their ability, they learned to make pizzas, cut and serve them on wooden paddles and take orders. 1 I couldn’t keep up, and piles of dishes formed on all sides of me. Every time the pile decreased, the call came back to help clear tables out front, and I returned with more dirty dishes. My shift (轮班) was supposed to end at 9 p.m., but when I asked to leave, the manager, Jeff, shook his head. “Not until the work is done,”he said. “You leave a clean station. 2 However, I worked until after 10 that night. I stayed on dish duty for weeks. My heart sank every time I arrived at work and saw my name written next to “dishes” on the position chart. I spent my shifts behind those steel sinks. I hated every minute I spent on dish duty. 3 One slow mid-week night, when I managed to catch up on dishes and clean out the sinks early, I asked Jeff when I could do something different. “Do you know why you’re still doing dishes?”he asked. “Because you keep complaining about it.” 4 But, he promised, if I continued to leave a clean station and not complain, next week he would put me on the “make table,” where pizzas were put together before being put into the oven. A few days later, when I reported for my after-school shift, I saw my name penciled not in the “dishes” box but in the “make table” box. 5 A. I was excited. B. Some write on a chalkboard. C. I was angry and thought about quitting. D. Nobody likes to work with a complainer, he said. E. And I wasn’t afraid to let everyone around me know it. F. On my first night, the dishes piled up after the dinner rush. G. The people who make a difference in your life come in all types.

(英语)高三英语阅读理解专项训练及答案

(英语)高三英语阅读理解专项训练及答案 一、高中英语阅读理解 1.阅读理解 The setting was a packed gymnasium just before the start of a game against another school. There were five girls who were members of the Danville High School basketball team—all of them starters. They were not in uniform to play that night and would not be on the team for the rest of this season. They were there to admit their breaking of team rules. They were there to support their coach's decision to take them off the team. They were there to let the town know there was a problem in their little community that needed to be addressed. And they did it with sincere regret rather than defensiveness. While the school had been out for the New Year's holiday, the five girls had gone to the party with several of their friends. There was alcohol there. And they all drank some. Coach Rainville has a zero tolerance rule on drugs and alcohol for her members though it was a hard decision to make. When classes resumed and accounts of holiday parties were shared, rumors about the five girls began closing in on them. The coach said she couldn't back down on her rules. And the players—two junior students and three senior students—agreed. That night in the gym was part of their public support of the coach's decision. “We hope you will understand that we are not bad kids. What we did was definitely not worth it. We hope this event will make everyone realize that there is a big drug and alcohol problem in our community,” one of the senior students said, “And if you work with us to try to solve this problem, you will help us feel that we have not been thrown off our basketball team for nothing.” The five left the floor to deafening applause. The team may not win another game this year. But they've learnt something about personal responsibility, the effect of one's action on others, and honesty that will serve them well throughout life. (1)It can be inferred from the passage that the five girls who were kicked off the team were ________. A. very good players on the team B. addicted to alcohol and drugs C. three junior students and two senior students D. scolded by their parents for drinking alcohol (2)What did the girls do to support their coach's decision? A. They didn't fight for Danville High School any more. B. They all gave speeches to apologize in the local press. C. They admitted their mistake in public in the gymnasium. D. They would never drink any alcohol throughout their life. (3)Which word best describes the coach Rainville? A. Indifferent. B. Strict. C. Stubborn. D. Cruel. (4)Which would be the best title for the passage? A. Growing up with pain B. A bad mistake C. Team rules are everything D. Basketball girls in high school 【答案】(1)A

Plan ahead for tests and projects Waiting until Thursday night to study for Friday's test will make it hard to do your best. One of the best ways to make sure that doesn't happen is to plan ahead. Write down your test dates. You can then plan how much to do after school each day, and how much time to spend on each topic. Break it up When there's a lot to study, it can help to break things into several parts. Let's say you have a spelling test on 20 words. Instead of thinking about all of the words at once, try breaking them down into five-word groups and work on one or two different groups each night. Ask for help You can't study effectively if you don't understand the material. Be sure to ask your teacher for help. If you're at home when the confusion occurs, your mom or dad might be able to help. Sleep tight So the test is tomorrow and you've followed your study plan—but suddenly you can't remember anything! Don't panic. Your brain needs time to digest all the information you've given it. Try to get a good night's sleep and you'll be surprised by what comes back to you in the morning. (1)We know from the passage that a loud person is ________. A. a student who always answers questions loudly in class B. someone who likes to talk with others in a loud voice C. a student who likes speaking with others in class D. a person who makes a lot of noise in public places (2)If you don't understand what you have learnt, you can ________. A. read your notes over and over again B. turn to people around you for help C. put aside the material for later review D. ask your teacher to explain it the next day (3)By saying “Sleep tight”, what does the author mean?

高考英语阅读理解专项训练及答案及解析

高考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 Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is gaining global popularity. According to a government white paper, TCM has been introduced in 183 countries and regions around the world. Westerners' understanding of TCM, however, may be limited to acupuncture, cupping and massage(针灸,拔罐和按摩). For instance, the purple, injury-like marks left on U. S. swimmer Michael Phelps,back from cupping for the purpose of relaxing his muscles and reducing pain became the center of attention during the Rio Olympics in 2016. As a matter of fact, Chinese herbs play a more important role in getting rid of diseases and keeping the body in good condition in the TCM treatment system than physical treatment. It is therefore disheartening to know that while 103 World Health Organization member countries have given approval to the practice of acupuncture, not many recognize Chinese herbal medicine. TCM falls far behind Western medicine owing partly to the slow development of Chinese herbs. Herbs are made into pills, powder and soup, and the kind of herbs used, their quality and quantity, and the processing of the ingredients (原材料) jointly determine the effectiveness of the prescription. Compared with Western medicine, which has standardized drug production processes and treatment methods, TCM lacks standardization, with the chemical composition and functions of its medicines being unclear and their effects being unstable. Fortunately, standardization has improved in recent decades, with an increasing number of factories producing patented TCM drugs. Another factor that has prevented the development of TCM prescription drugs is the lack of creativity. While Western medicine-making companies come up with new products every year, TCM drug producers tend to make medicines according to prescriptions handed down from the past. Chinese chemist Tu Youyou's winning the 2015 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for her research into malaria (疟疾) treatment may drive creativity to some extent in China's TCM industry. However, the current state of affairs cannot be changed within a short time. (1)Why does the author mention the example of Michael Phelps? A. Because he was injured in his swimming. B. Because cupping is a kind of important TCM treatment. C. Because westerners know a little about TCM. D. Because westerners attach great importance to TCM. (2)Why don't some member countries of WHO recognize Chinese herbal medicine? A. Because Chinese herbs can get rid of diseases. B. Because they only approve the practice of acupuncture. C. Because Western medicine is more effective. D. Because medicine made out of Chinese herbs develops slowly. (3)Compared with Western medicine, what is the weak point of TCM in Paragraph 4? A. The methods of planting herbs. B. The effectiveness of prescription. C. Lacking in standardization. D. Its stable functions.

2019高考英语 阅读理解专题选编(12)(含解析)

2019高考英语阅读理解专题选编(12) 李仕才 A In 1959, when Jean Harper was in the third grade, her teacher gave the class an assignment to write a report on what they wanted to be when they grew up. Jean’s father was a crop dusting pilot in the little farming community in N orthern California where she was raised, and Jean was very interested in airplanes and flying. She poured her heart into her report and included all of her dreams. She wanted to be a crop dusting pilot, make parachute jumps(跳伞), and be an airline pilot. Her paper came back with an "F" on it. The teacher told her it was a "fairy tale" and that none of the occupations she listed were women’s jobs. Jean was devastated and humiliated. One day in her senior year of high school, her English teacher Mrs Dorothy Slaton gave the class an assignment. "If you had unlimited money, unlimited access to the finest schools, and unlimited talents and abilities, what would you do?" Jean felt a rush of her old enthusiasm, and with excitement she wrote down all her old dreams. The teacher leaned forward over her desk and said, "You do have unlimited abilities and talents. When you leave school, if you don’t go for your dreams, no one will do it for you. You can have what you want if you want it enough." The hurt and fear of years of discouragement went away because of what Mrs Slaton had said. Jean felt excited and a little scared. She stayed after class and went up to the teacher’s desk. Jean thanked Mrs Slaton and told her about her dream of becoming a pilot. Mrs Slaton half rose and slapped the desk top. "Then do it!" she said. So Jean did. It didn’t happen overnight. It took her 10 years of hard work. It wasn’t in Jean’s nature to stand up for herself when someone refused or humiliated her. Instead, she would quietly try to find another way. She became a private pilot and then flew planes as a co-pilot (副驾驶员). In 1978, she became one of the first three female pilot trainees ever accepted by United Airlines and one of the only 50 women airline pilots in the nation at that time. Some years later, Jean Harper became a Boeing 737 captain for United Airlines. 1.When Jean Harper was in the third grade, _________.

2019高考英语二轮阅读理解归类练习—旅游交通(详解)

2019高考英语二轮阅读理解归类练习—旅游交通(详解) (2012·江西卷)For those who make journeys across the world,the speed of travel today has turned the countries into a series of villages.Distances between them appear no greater to a modern traveler than those which once faced men as they walked from village to village.Jet planes fly people from one end of the earth to the other,allowing them a freedom of movement undreamt of a hundred years ago. Yet some people wonder if the revolution in travel has gone too far.A price has been paid,they say,for the conquest (征服) of time and distance.Travel_is_something_to_be_enjoyed,not_endured(忍受).The boat offers leisure and time enough to appreciate the ever-changing sights and sounds of a journey.A journey by train also has a special charm about https://www.360docs.net/doc/393547529.html,kes and forests and wild,open plains sweeping past your carriage window create a grand view in which time and distance mean nothing.On board a plane,however,there is just the blank blue of the sky filling the narrow windows of the airplane.The soft lighting,in-flight films and gentle music make up the only world you know,and the hours progress slowly. Then there is the time spent being “processed” at a modern airport.People are conveyed like robots along walkways;baggage is weighed,tickets produced,examined and produced yet again before the passengers move to another waiting area.Journeys by rail and sea take longer,yes,but the hours devoted to being “processed” at departure and arrival in airports are luckily absent.No wonder,then,that the modern hi gh-speed trains are winning back passengers from the airlines. Man,however,is now a world traveler and cannot turn his back on the airplane.The working lives of too many people depend upon it;whole new industries have been built around its design and opera tion.The holiday-maker,too,with limited time to spend,patiently endures the busy airports and the limited space of the flight to gain those extra hours and even days,relaxing in the sun.Speed controls people's lives;time saved,in work or play,is the important thing—or so we are told.Perhaps those first horsemen,riding free across the wild,open plains,were enjoying a better world than the one we know today.They could travel at will,and the clock was not their master. 【语篇解读】本文是一篇议论文,乘坐飞机旅行方便快捷,节省了出行旳时间,然而却也
