2016高考英语二轮阅读理解练习及答案
2016高考英语二轮阅读理解练习（1）及答案2016高考英语阅读理解--日常生活类Papa’s Straw HatPapa was a ranger. He worked with horses. He always wore clean clothes with a hat even when he worked. His hat was always the same kind of a cowboy hat- large black hat of heavy wool. He wore his hat full and high. I think he wanted to look taller than he really was.Mama was proud of the way he looked when he wore his hat and his best clothes. But in some way she got the idea that papa would lose his hair if he kept wearing a heavy wool cowboy hat in the hot weather. She began to talk about his hats.“Papa,” she said one day, “why don't you get a nice cool straw hat? That heavy wool cowboy hat may cause losing hair!” Papa laughed at her and explained that the horses wouldn’t recognize him if he changed the hat. But she didn’t believe him.Mama talked and talked about the hat all summer long. At last papa answered, a little angry, “It would not the cowboy hat but a wife’s talking about the hat that makes me lose my hair.”Mama had a very serious look on her face. She went straight out and later came home with a straw hat. It was a bad year for ranger and we didn't have much money. She thought that if she spent the money for a straw hat, papa would wear it. When papa saw the hat, his face got red. Without a word, he pulled the straw hat down over his head until it hid his eyes and went on to train the horses.He was a good ranger and gentle to his horses. But as papa got close to the horses this time, they jumped high into the air, raising their front feet. All of them ran around in the rounded field and then raced toward the barn. Papa began to shout “Woo boys. Steady boys, steady.” But there was nothing equal to.Papa walked back straight to the stove in the kitchen, pushed the straw hat deep downinto the fire then turned to mama, in a way that even frightened me. “Now listen to me, mama. Understand this I will never wear a straw hat or any other kind of hat my horses do not like.” Then he put on his wool cowboy hat and walked out of the house.I never heard mama talk any more about hats. Perhaps, that is why when papa died many years later, there was a round spot on the top of his head where there was no hair.【小题1】According to the passage, a ranger is _______.A．a person wearing a woolen hatB．a position requiring clean clothesC．a person training horses for some purposeD．a person riding a carriage with horses【小题2】Mama bought papa a straw hat because _______.A．most cowboys preferred to wear itB．she was worried about his healthC．a woolen one didn’t suit papaD．it was cheap and she could save money【小题3】What quality can we learn from papa?A．Gentle. B．Patient. C．Committed. D．Modest.【小题4】It can be learned from the story that _______.A．this family were not rich but diligentB．papa didn’t love the straw hat and mamaC．protecting hair was very importantD．a cowboy hat was useful on farming阅读理解。

You’re in a department store and you see a couple of attractiv e young women looking at a sweater. You listen to their conve rsation:“I can’t believe it—a Lorenzo Bertolla!They are almost impossible to find. Isn’t it beautiful? And it’s a lot cheaper than the one Sara bought in .”They leave and you go over to see this incredible sweater. It’s nice and the price is right. You’ve never heard of Lorenzo Ber tolla, but those girls looked really stylish. They must know. So, you buy it. You never realize that those young women are em ployees of an advertising agency. They are actually paid to go from store to store, talking loudly about Lorenzo Bertolla cloth es.Every day we notice what people are wearing, driving and eati ng. If the person looks cool, the product seems cool, too. Thisis the secret of undercover marketing. Companies from Ford to Nike are starting to use it.Undercover marketing is important because it reaches people that don’t pay attention to traditional advertising. This is partic ularly true of the MTV generation—consumers between the age of 18 and 34. It is a golden group . They have a lot of money to spend, but they don’t trust ads. So advertising agencies hire young actors to “perform”in bars and other places where young adults go. Some people might call this practice deceptive (骗人的), but marketing executive Jonathan Ressler calls it creative . “Look at traditional advertising. Its effectiveness is decreasin g.”However, one might ask what exactly is “real” about of young women pretending to be enthusiastic about a sweater? Advert ising executives would say it’s no less real than an ad. The dif ference is that you know an ad is trying to persuade you to bu y something. You don’t know when a conversation you overhe ar is just a performance.1. The two attractive young women were talking so that they c ould______.A. get the sweater at a lower priceB. be heard by people arou ndC. be admired by other shoppersD. decide on buying the swe ater2. Lorenzo Bertolla is______.A. a very popular male singerB. an advertising agencyC. a clothing company inD. the brand name of a sweater3. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?A. The two girls are in fact employed by the Lorenzo Bertolla Company.B. The MTV generation tends to be more easily influenced by ads.C. Traditional advertising is becoming less effective because i t’s too direct.D. Undercover marketing will surely be banned soon by the g overnment.4. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?A. Two Attractive ShoppersB. Lorenzo Bertolla Sweaters of AdvertisingD. Undercover Marketing【参考答案】1—4、BDCD2016高考训练题。

体裁：记叙文话题：助人为乐时间：15分钟On a cold winter day，a group of strangers band together to save three children. The 30 miles of switchbacks(急转弯) that snake through the pinecovered mountains of Logan Canyon in Utah are enough to make most drivers' hands sweat.But Roger Andersen，a 46yearold father of four，wasn't expecting any trouble on the road last New Year's Eve，when he set off for an unexpected ski trip to the Bear River Mountains with nineyearo ld daughter Mia，fouryearold son Baylor，and nineyearold neighbor Kenya Wildman.Andersen had driven through the canyon hundreds of times over the years.“We ski in that area at least 20 times a year，〞says Andersen.“I know the spots that ice up a lot in the winter.〞The weather was glorious for hitting the slopes—30 degrees and sunny—but the higher they drove，the slicker(滑溜溜的) the roads became.Rounding a sharp turn at mile maker 473，Andersen saw a truck that had skated off the road and tapped his brakes(刹车) suddenly.In an instant，the Honda Accord was sliding at 25 miles per hour toward the shoulder of the highway，then slipping down a steep tenfoot embankment(路堤) toward the cold Logan River.As it hit the water，the car tipped toward the passenger side，hesitated，and then rolled onto its roof and sank into the river.There was no time to tell the kids what to do.The crash had broken a few windows，and within seconds，the cab of the upsidedown car was filled with water.“It was frightening how fast we were completely underwater，〞 remembers Andersen，asoftspoken product development manager.“You're thinking，‘Is this how it's all going to end？'〞Then，Andersen began to search the freezing water for the kids.Mia had been right next to him in the front seat；now，in the blackness，he couldn't find her.“I thought，if I don't get out，maybe none of us is going to get out.〞 Andersen untied his seat belt，swam through a broken window，and gasped for air at the surface.That's when he saw a group of men，about ten in all，appear at the top of the embankment.One afteranother，they jumped into the water，shouting,“Who else is in the car？〞Andersen says respectfully,“It was like the sight of angels.〞【语篇导读】Andersen的车不幸落入冰冷的河水中，一群素昧平生的人对车里的人展开了一场生死营救……1．Which word can best describe the feelings of most drivers when driving on this slope?A．Nervous.

Lack of parent willpower may contribute more to juvenile obes ity than under-exercising or overeating.Research suggests that having overweight parents is a big infl uence upon a child’s weight, with one study finding that childr en with overweight parents were four times more likely to be o verweight themselves.The findings add heat to an already fierce political debate ov er childhood obesity. The Prime Minister, John Howard, last w eek decided that $116 million be used for programs to deal wi th obesity, while the Opposition Leader, Mark Latham, recentl y announced that his party would move to protect children fro m unhealthy food advertisements..Clare Colins , a senior lecturer at the of , believes such progr ams will definitely fail unless they influence the way of life of w hole families. "If we can’ t get parents to take action against their own weight problems, then we can’ t expect to influence th eir kids," she said.However, Professor, Louise Baur from the Children’ s Hospita l at Westmead, doubts whether adult education programs offe r any solution to weight problems. "Many parents know they n eed to lose weight and they knew it influences their kids, but t hey lack the willpower to do anything about it.The l0-year study of 150 American children found two-thirds of children with overweight parents became overweight. Only one in six children whose parents were of average weig ht became overweight.The president of the Australasian Society for the Study of Obe sity, Associate Professor Gary Wittert, said parents needed h elp in doing their job and the Opposition Party’s policy（政策） might be on the right track."We know that driving without a seat belt is unsafe, so we ma ke law against it,” he said."Obesity is a major public health concern, so why shouldn’t we change the law regarding unhealthy food ads?"1. What does the underlined phrase “juvenile obesity” mean?A. Adult education.B. Childhood overw eightC. Parents’ influenceD. Growing pains2.Both Collins and Baur believe that overweight parents_____ __,A. will come up with better solutionsB. will help with their children’ s educationC. should be more active in reducing weightD. should carry out at least 10 years’ study3.

Inside the pleasingly fragrant cafe, So All May Eat (SAME) in downtown Denver, the spirit of generosity (慷慨) is instantly noticeable: A donation box stands in place of a cash register. Customers here pay only what they can afford, no questions asked.A risky business plan, perhaps, but SAME Cafe has done one unchangeable thing in the Mile High City for six years: Open only at midday, the restaurant provides poor local people with healthy, delicious lunches six days a week. Those unable to pay for their meals can instead volunteer as waiters and waitresses, and dishwashers, or look after the buildings and equipment for the cafe.“It’s based on trust, and it’s working all right,” says co- owner Brad Birky, who started the cafe in 2006 with his wife Libby. Previously volunteering at soup kitchens, the Birkys were dissatisfied with the often unhealthy meals they served there.“We wanted to offer quality food in a restaurant where everyone felt comfortable, regardless of their circumstances, ” Birky says. SAME’s special lunch menu changes daily and most food materials are natural and grown by local farmers.The cafe now averages 65 to 70 customers(and eight volunteers) a day. And the spirit of generosity behind the project appears to be spreading. In early 2007, one volunteer who had cleared snow for his meals during the long winter said goodbye to the Birkys. “He said he was going to New Orleans to help with the hurricane cleanup, ” says Birky.1. What can we learn about the soup kitchens the Birkys previously worked for?A. They refused to have volunteers.B. They offered low quality food.C. They provided customers with a good environment.D. They closed down because of poor management.2. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?A. The customers who cannot pay can work as volunteers instead.B. More vol unteers will go to New Orleans for the hurricane cleanup.C. Many new cafes will be opened to offer free lunches in the town.D. The lunch menu has remained the same since the cafe was started.3. The author’s attitude towards running such a cafe is_____.A. unfavorableB. approvingC. doubtfulD. cautious【参考答案】1—3、BAB2016高考训练题。

Music lessons in early childhood bring about changes in the brain that could improve its pe rformance far into adulthood, researchers say.Brain scans of young adults showed those who had formal musical training before sevenhad thicker brain areas dealing with hearing and self-awareness .The findings note how brain de velopment can be influenced by the age when children start to learn a musical instrument , and how those changes can continue into later life."Early musical training benefits kids more than just making them enjoy music. It changes the brain, which could bring about cognitive advances as well," said Yunxin Wang of Beijing Nor mal University.“Our results suggest it’s better to start musical training before seven, w hich agrees with what most piano teachers recommend,” she added. She hoped the results might help parents decide when was the best for their children to learn an instrument.The brain’s cortex(皮层) plays a leading role in one’s abilities, from thought an d language to memory and attention. The area matures rapidly in the early years of life, and its development could be affected more if a person starts musical training before it fully matures.Wang studied 48 Chinese students aged between 19 and 21 who had received formal music training for at least a year sometime between the ages of 3 and 15. Each had a scan to measure the thickness of the brain’s cortex.After considering sex and the number of years spent having music lessons, Wang found that musical training that started before seven appeared to thicken areas of the brain involved in language skills and executive function, which is a person’s ability to plan and accomplish tasks.“We’re not sure why these changes occur, but a reasonable explanati on is that early starters might depend more on hearing clues(线索) when learning music, since it might be more difficult for younger children to read music,” Wang said.1. According to the researchers, musical training before the age of seven can _______________.A. contribute to future work.B. create a successful lifeC. develop all-round abilitiesD. deal with puzzling problem2. When conducting the research with the students, Wang __________.A. tested their language abilitiesB. watched their musical performancesC. focused on school behavior and achievementsD. measured the thickness of the brain’s cortex3. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that _____________.A. it must be hard for kids to read musicB. kids are more likely to learn music by hearingC. Wang’s explanation has been the most reasonableD. Wang will research into the reasons for the brain change4. For what purpose does the author write the text?A. To describe the development of brain.B. To challenge the previous discoveries.C. To present the findings of the research.D. To give advice on how to learn music.参考答案1—4、ADBC【阅读理解】人物故事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。
