高三英语阅读理解专项训练100(附答案)含解析一、高中英语阅读理解1．阅读理解When you go to the doctor, you like to come away with a prescription．It makes you feel better to know you will get some medicine. But the doctor knows that medicine is not always needed. Sometimes all a sick person needs is some reassurance that all will be well. In such cases the doctor may prescribe a placebo.A placebo is a sugar pill, a harmless shot, or ail empty capsule. Even though they have no medicine in them, these things seem to make people well. The patient thinks it is medicine and begins to get better. How does this happen?The study of the placebo opens up new knowledge about the way the human body can heal itself. It is as if there was a doctor in each of us. The doctor will heal the body for us if we let it. But it is not yet known just how the placebo works to heal the body. Some people say it works because the human mind fools itself. These people say that if the mind is fooled into thinking it got medicine, then it will act as if it did, and the body will feel better.Placebos do not always work. The success of this treatment seems to rest a lot with the relationship between the patient and the doctor. If the patient has a lot of trust in the doctor and if the doctor really wants to help the patient, then the placebo is more likely to work. So in a way, the doctor is the most powerful placebo of all.A placebo can also have bad effects. If patients expect a bad reaction to medicine, then they will also show a bad reaction to the placebo. This would seem to show that a lot of how you react to medicine is in your mind rather than in your body. Some doctors still think that if the placebo can have bad effects it should never be used. They think there is still not enough known about it. The strange power of the placebo does seem to suggest that the human mind is stronger than we think it is. There are people who say you can heal your body by using your mind. And the interesting thing is that even people who swear this is not possible have been healed by a placebo．（1）What do we know about placebo according to the passage?A. It contains some sort of medicine.B. It won't function if you are negative about medicine.C. People who don't believe placebo can't be healed by it.D. Patients and doctors know clearly how it helps to heal the body.（2）Why is the doctor sometimes the most powerful placebo?A. The patient needs help badly．B. The patient believes in the doctor．C. The doctor knows better about your body．D. The doctor has carefully studied medicine．（3）What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 5 refer to?A. The placebo.B. The bad effect.C. The body.D. The medicine.（4）What is the passage mainly about?A. Placebo：Work on Your MindB. Placebo：The Most Powerful MedicineC. Placebo：The Best DoctorD. Placebo：Heal Your Body【答案】（1）A（2）B（3）B（4）A【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，有时候病人的病并不是需要真正的药物来医治，而是需要医生开一些安慰的药剂，安慰病人的心理使病人的情绪得到舒缓，从而有利于病情的痊愈。

（英语）高二英语阅读理解专项训练100(附答案)一、高中英语阅读理解1．阅读理解One day a very skilled artist met a beautiful woman who immediately became the object of his affections. As he observed her and spoke with her, he admired her more and more. He showered her with kindness and words of praise until she consented to be his wife.Not long after they were married, however, the beautiful woman found out that she was more the object of his artistic interest than of his affections. When he admired her classic beauty, it was as though he were standing in front of a work of art rather than in front of a human being to whom he had pledged his love and promised his life. And soon he expressed his great desire to put her rare beauty on canvas.“Please sit for me in the workroom,” he pleaded, “and I will make your beauty permanent. The work will be my masterpiece!”She was humble and patient as well as flattered by his words, so she said, “Yes, my love. I will be happy to sit for you.” So the beautiful, young wife of the artist sa t meekly for hours in his studio, not complaining. Day after day she sat patiently, smiling as she posed, because she loved him and because she hoped that he would see her love in her smile and obedience. She sometimes wanted to call out to him, “Please lo ve me and want me as a person rather than as an object!” But instead, she spoke nothing but words which pleased him.At length, as the labor drew to close, the painter became wilder in his passion for his work. He only rarely turned his eyes from the canvas to look at his wife. As he stood there gazing at his beautiful work of art, he cried with a loud voice, “This is indeed life itself!” Then he turned to his beloved and saw that she was dead!（1）In what way did the artist express his appreciation of his wife's rare beauty?A. He put her classic beauty on canvas.B. He promised to marry her.C. He centered his deep affection on her.D. He pledged his love and promised his life to her.（2）What can be inferred from the story?A. The artist loved his work more than his wife.B. The artist didn't really understand what is beauty.C. The wife was fooled to sacrifice for his art creation.D. The wife loved his painting more than herself.（3）What did the artist mean by saying “This is indeed life itself!”？A. He appreciated his life of painting.B. He was grateful to his wife.C. His work was more true to life than life itself.D. His effort was really worth it.（4）What would be the best title for this passage?A. A Well-matched CoupleB. A Devoted ArtistC. A Rare MasterpieceD. A Stupid Wife【答案】（1）A（2）A（3）C（4）B【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，有一位技艺超群的画家遇到一位美丽的女士，顿生爱意。

（英语）高二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Just a few years out of law school, I decided that I wanted to write fictions. The only thing I had ever published before was a law-review article. I had made great efforts to write when I camehome at night after work, but I was too tired. I decided to quit my job.I began my new life on a February morning. I sat down at my kitchen table at 7:30 am andmade a resolution. Every day I would write until lunchtime. Then I would lie down on the floorfor 20 minutes to rest my mind. After that, I would return to work for a few more hours.In my first year, I sold two stories. Then I wrote a novel, but I thought it wasn't good enough, soI ended up putting it in a drawer. My second novel, Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk, waspublished to glowing reviews and received the National Book Critics Circle Award for fiction.My success sounds like a familiar story, but actually it was far from sudden. I quit my job, and for every story I published in those years, I had at least 30 rejections. The novel that I put awayin the drawer took my four years. My breakthrough came in 2006, 18 years after I first sat downto write at my kitchen table.Sometimes genius (天才 ) is just the thing that comes out after 20 years of working at your kitchen. Also, doing something truly creative requires the energy of youth. Orson Welles made hismasterpiece, Citizen Kan, at 25. T. S. Eliot wrote The Love Song of J.

Failure is the mother of success.B. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.C. It is never too old to learn.D. It is the first step that costs troublesome.（4） Why did the author give the example of Orson Welles and T. S. Eliot?A. To make a comparison between them and himself.B. To show creativity needs energy andefforts.C. To persuade the readers of their great talents.D. To recommend their two masterpieces.【答案】（1） D（2） B（3） A（4） B【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，作者通过讲述自己成功的经历，进一步证实了“失败是成功之母”的道理。

高二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The noise of chattering mouths subsided（平息）as the teacher entered classroom. “Good morning class. I am Riffat Monaf, and I will be your geography teacher.” Riffat Monaf, an interesting name and an even more interesting person. Her introduction took place about six years ago, and since then I have never met a more influential person in my life.Mrs Monaf not only conquered me with her vast knowledge of geography, but also won me over with her smile and warm eyes. It was in her class that I traveled to the highest mountains and to the deepest seas from the comfort of the classroom. I learned about the vast oceans, the erupting volcanoes, the snow-capped mountains and the green valleys. She would often relate her adventures about traveling to different parts of the world.Never can I forget the glory of her face when she talks about how truly beautiful this world is. If I search back my love for the environment and geography, I find her to be the source of my love for preserving nature. If one day I became an environmentalist, I know that I'll thank her for it. Apart from this, she has always greeted me with open arms and she calls her students “my children”. Mrs Monaf's morals and values rubbed off me deeply and I have always taken her advice into consideration. She has been one of the most consistently good things in my life.Currently, she is fighting a battle against breast cancer, and it pains me to know that after all she has done for me; I can do nothing for her except pray. Whenever I see her in school, she still keeps that kind smile and an expression so soft that it trembles my heart. Mrs Monaf still talks enthusiastically about geography, and I know that I can never see what a truly great person she has been in my life. .（1）What can we learn from the second paragraph?A. The writer traveled a lot.B. Mrs Monaf was a learned person.C. The writer did well at school.D. Mrs Monaf enjoyed telling stories.（2）The underlined word “rubbed off” means .A. movedB. shockedC. influencedD. defeated（3）What do we know from the last paragraph?A. Mrs. Monaf was an optimistic person.B. Breast cancer made Mrs. Monaf upset.C. Another great person may appear in my life.D. Praying for Mrs. Monaf made the writer tremble.（4）What would be the best title for the passage?A. My Interesting School LifeB. The Teacher-student FriendshipC. An Influential Person in My LifeD.

The oldest domestic dogs in the Americas were thought to be around 9500 years old. Angela Perri of Durham University, UK, and her colleagues have carried out fresh radiocarbon dating on thetwo dog skeletons that gave this date, discovered in the prehistoric Koster site in Illinois, and found they were even older: around 10,100 years old.A third dog from another Illinois site called Stilwell II was older still, at 10,190 years old. That makes it the oldest known domesticated dog in the Americas. The team concluded that all three dogs were domesticated as they skeletons were complete and unskinned, and so hadn't been butchered for food. They had also been carefully buried, evidence they were valued by their owners. The Stilwell II dog, which probably resembled a small English settler, was under what seemed to be the floor of a living area. It is unclear why it took so long for tame dogs to arrive in the Americas, given that they were domesticated at least 14,000 years ago in Eurasia. By this time, people were already moving into North America from Siberia; there is evidence some reached Chile 18,500 years ago. Geneticists have found signs of at least three waves of migration over the following millennia. There is no evidence that domestic dogs accompanied them. “ Wedon't know if dogs were part of the first waves of immigration to the Americas" says Luc Janssens of Ghent University in Belgium. "It could be so, but no archaeological bones have yet been found." It is "overwhelmingly probable" that some of the early settlers did bring dogs to the Americas, but they may not have had "the time or the spiritual compulsion to bury them", says Pat Shipman of Pennsylvania State University.（1） How old is the oldest known domestic dog in the Americas7A. About 9500 years.B.

（英语）高二英语阅读理解专项训练100(附答案)及解析一、高中英语阅读理解1．阅读理解From the loss of wildlife to rising sea levels, we're all well aware of the problems that climate change could cause.But while it may seem like such issues won't affect most of us directly，it looks like future generations could grow up without something that many of us now take for granted: chocolate. According to an essay published by the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, changes to the climate in the regions that produce cacao - the plant from which chocolate is produced - may mean that it will soon become extinct.Most of the world's cacao grows in countries close to the equator，with over half of it growing in the African nations of Ghana and Ivory Coast.It's predicted that by 2050, climate change will have accelerated the rate at which temperatures in these countries rise, making it extremely difficult for cacao to grow there.The problem doesn't lie in increased heat, however，but in lower humidity (湿度)，as it's believed that rainfall will stay at the same level if the temperature rises.“In other words, as higher temperatures squeeze more water out of soil and plants, it's unlikely that rainfall will increase enough to offset the moisture (含水量) loss,” Michon Scott, t he essay's author, wrote.To help fight this problem, researchers from Berkeley University in the US are working on changing the DNA of cacao plants to allow them to survive in dryer conditions by using gene editing technology, according to US News.In the meantime, US company Mars, one of the world's biggest manufacturers of chocolate products, announced in January that it would spend $1 billion to help reduce the effects of climate change.“This is a world issue, and it requires everyone to work together,” Mars spokesperson Barry Parkin told Business Insider.The message here is that if we all do our part, we may be able to prevent some of the worst impacts of climate change. Or if we're unlucky, chocolate will become a thing of the past.（1）What could make it hard for cacao to survive around the equator in the future?A. The increased heat there.B. The higher humidity there.C. The decrease in rainfall there.D. The moisture loss in the soil there.（2）What does the underlined word “offset” in the seventh paragraph mean?A. hold backB. make up forC. protectD. accept（3）What will US company Mars do to help cacao survive?A. It will work hard to plant cacao in greenhouses.B. It will apply gene editing technology in planting cacao.C. It will give financial support to help fight climate change.D. It will develop cacao that can survive in dryer conditions.（4）What may be the best title of this text?A. Chocolate could become historyB. Work together to fight climate changeC. How do we grow cacao in the future?D. How do cacao plants affect climate change?【答案】（1）D（2）B（3）C（4）A【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，未来由于气候的变化，用于制造巧克力的可可树可能会灭绝，所以巧克力有可能会成为历史。

(1)考查细节理解。

根据第七段中的“‘In other words, as higher temperatures squeeze more water out of soil and plants, it's unlikely that rainfall will increase enough to offset the moisture (含水量) loss,’ Michon Scott, the essay's author, wrote.”可知未来赤道附近的可可树很难存活，是因为那里土壤中水分的流失，故选D。

(2)考查词义猜测。

根据第六段中的“The problem doesn't lie in increased heat, however，but in lower humidity (湿度)，as it's believed that rainfall will stay at the same level if the temperature rises.可知In other words, as higher temperatures squeeze more water out of soil and plants, it's unlikely that rainfall will increase enough to offset the moisture (含水量) loss”的意思是换句话说，高温带走了土壤和植物中更多的水分，降雨量的增长不足以抵消水量的流失，所以“offset”的意思是弥补，抵消，故选B。

(3)考查细节理解。

根据倒数第三段中的“In the meantime, US company Mars, one of the world's biggest manufacturers of chocolate products, announced in January that it would spend $1 billion to help reduce the effects of climate change.”可知美国的火星巧克力公司给予财政支援，用来帮助对抗气候的变化，故选C。

(4)考查主旨大意。

本文主要讲了未来由于气候的变化，用于制造巧克力的可可树可能会灭绝，所以巧克力有可能会成为历史，故选A。

【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解，词义猜测和主旨大意三个题型的考查，是一篇科普类阅读，要求考生在捕捉细节信息的基础上，进一步根据上下文的逻辑关系，进行分析，推理，概括和归纳，从而选出正确答案。

2．阅读理解The Hunan Satellite TV(HNTV) show "Where are we going, Dad?" is a big hit. Many famous stars brought their children to a strange village alone, and they had to spend 72 hours with their children there. The program fully showed us a modern version of the "how to be a good father". As the young parents today are too busy to take care of their children, this new form of "Lost on the way" played by nanny Daddy and cute kids triggered(触发)a lot of people's emotional resonance(共鸣). Both the kids and their parents will find that their hearts are being drawn closer. But this kind of feeling has just proved that there is a big spiritual barrier between the modern parents and children.The TV shows like "Children are hard to support!", "Where are we going, Dad?", "hot mom" and "cute kids" are becoming more and more popular. All of these show the new parents'confusion in children's education and the appeal for the balance between career and family.In real life, on the one hand the young parents feel helpless because they are too busy to accompany their children under the pressures of work and life; on the other hand they continue to do so. The data collected by HNTV shows that nearly two-thirds of their audience are female, among whom 36% are aged from 25 to 34.We can imagine such a scene that one evening a young mother is watching the show with her young children, while her husband is still at work or trapped in socializing, or maybe is just playing computer games in the bedroom. The story of a child without the company of father is still going on. In fact, it is sometimes the same to mothers. In a modern family, it is often the old who take the responsibility of raising a child. The participation of mother in the children's education is also very low.It is just this kind of confusion where the parents have gone in the modern family education, and where the parents will guide their children to go that "Where are we going，Dad?" shows us. If a child wants to grow up healthily and safely into a modern citizen with independent personality and free spirit, it is very important for him or her to follow the parents who serve as their first teacher. Maybe this is the real reason why such kind of TV programs could get hot. The truth is that children will go where their parents go; and society will go where the children go.（1）In raising a child in modern society, parents should ________.A.play computer games with their childrenB.keep their children at home to avoid socializingC.balance well between family and careerD.break down the barrier between children and teachers（2）Which of the following can be inferred in the passage?A.Parents shouldn't entirely leave the education of children to the old.B.36% of the audience of the program are female aged from 25-34.C.The program shows us the confusion where the parents and children will go to play.D.In a modern family it is often mothers who are responsible for raising a child.（3）Which one is the best title of the passage?A.Confusion Behind “Where are we going, dad?”B.Modern Education is ImportantC.Nanny Daddy and Cute KidsD.New problems in Modern Children's Education（4）What attitude towards modern family education does the author express in the second paragraph?A.Proud.B.Worried.C.Optimistic.D.Indifferent.【答案】（1）C（2）A（3）A（4）B【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，通过讲述热门节目“爸爸去哪儿”展示了现代家庭教育中存在的问题。
