专题05时文阅读理解-人与动植物1.主题语境—人与自然—孩子都爱玩—大黄蜂似乎也知道同样的事情—大黄蜂成为已知的第一个会玩的昆虫。
重点词汇:set up创办;identify识别;turned out结果是;deal with应对,处理;Kids everywhere love to play. And they know a ball is a perfect thing to play with. Now scientists at London’s Queen Mary University report that bumblebees seem to know the same thing, making bumblebees the first insects known to play.When people talk about “play”, they’re describing an animal doing something that doesn’t really seem to help it. They’re not doing the action to get food or shelter or another similar “reward”. Play usually happens when a creature is relaxed and is often repeated.However, scientists think many animals and birds’ playing is a kind of training for things they’ll have to deal with in later life. But before this, there were no reports of insects playing.Scientists at Dr. Chittka’s lab, carried out an experiment. First, they tagged (贴标签) 45 young bumblebees, both male and female, between 1 and 23 days old. The tags made the bees easier to identify and follow.The scientists set up a clear pathway from the bumblebees’ nest to a feeding area. On either side of the open pathway, the researchers placed small colored wooden balls. On one side of the path, the balls were attached and couldn’t move. On the other side, the balls could roll around. It turned out that the bumblebees weren’t interested in the unmovable balls, but they made lots of visits to the rolling balls.Grabbing the balls with their legs, the bees would flap (拍打) their wings to pull on the balls, causing them to roll. The 45 tagged bumblebees rolled balls 910 times during the experiment. Though some only did it once, others did it a lot. The younger bumblebees spent more time rolling balls. Males seemed more likely to play than females.“It’s not clear why the bees roll the balls or whether they enjoy it But the experiment raises important questions about how the insects’ minds work and whether they have feelings. With further research, the future will hold surprises and answers in store for us,” said Dr. Chittka.1.What is the purpose of animals’ play according to scientists?A.To find ideal shelter.B.To receive extra rewards.C.To develop survival skills.D.To get their fellows’ attention.2.What did Dr. Chittka’s experiment focus on?A.Bu mblebees’ categories.B.Bumblebees’ habitats.C.Bumblebees’ intelligence.D.Bumblebees’ behavior.3.What was the result of the experiment?A.Younger male bumblebees preferred to roll the balls.B.Bumblebees possessed different wing beat frequency.C.Bumblebees could distinguish balls of different colors.D.A specially-built pathway helped bumblebees find food.4.What is Dr. Chittka’s attitude to their future research?A.Uncertain. B.Doubtful. C.Optimistic. D.Critical.【答案】1.C 2.D 3.A 4.C【导语】这是一篇说明文。

In another study scientists looked at the brain activity of overweight participants as they viewed images of desirable food such as pizza and ice cream.The researchers then observed how mental distraction techniques affected their brain activity.The techniques included thinking about things other than food, accepting the food thoughts and recognizing that they are just thoughts and don’t need to be acted upon, thinking about the long﹣term consequences of overeating, and focusing on the immediate reward of eating the food.The study found that thinking about bad long﹣term consequences was the best technique for controlling the urge to eat.The technique also caused brain activity in regions related to inhibitory(抑制性)contro1.Researchers don’t yet understand how thinking about food in particular ways helps control eating desires, and they are not advocating distraction techniques as________ for weight loss.But the studies stress the central role of the brain in wishing for food, and how techniques to distract the brain may be part of weight loss puzzle.(1)Which works the best in controlling food desires according to the first study?________A.Tapping the forehead and ear.B.Tapping a toe on the floor.C.Staring at a wall.D.Staring at others’activities.(2)What is the most effective way to distract people from the food according to the second study?________A.Focusing on the immediate reward of eating it.B.Thinking about the bad results of overeating.C.Accepting the food thoughts but not eating it.D.Thinking about other things instead of the food.(3)What does the underlined phrase“a silver bullet”in the last paragraph probably mean?________A.A valuable research.B.An effective solution.C.A precious too1.D.An expensive pill.(4)What is the best title for the text?________A.Three Movements Help Lose Weight.B.Weight Loss Affects People’s Health.C.Self﹣distraction Reduces Eating Desire.D.Researchers Find Distraction Techniques.【答案】ABBC【考点】阅读理解综合【解析】本文章主要讲述了现在很多人们面临的肥胖问题,并提出了控制体重控制食欲的一个方法,即﹣﹣自我约束,并对此方法进行了研究.【解答】(1)A.细节题.根据文章内容,In one study researchers had fifty five overweight patients do distraction tasks to control their food desires.There were three movements designed by the researchers,including tapping the forehead and ear with an index finger,tapping a toe on the floor,or simply staring at a wall.Among them the finger tapping seemed to help the most,compared with the others.由此可知,在一项研究中,研究人员给55个肥胖人员设计了几个作动以帮助他们控制自己的食欲.其中有轻拍额头和耳朵、触摸脚尖或者就是简单的盯着墙看,结果表明,轻拍额头和耳朵最有效果.结合选项,故选A.(2)B.细节题.根据文章内容,The study found that thinking about bad long﹣term consequences was the best technique for controlling the urge to eat.由此可知,另外的研究表明,人们在脑海里多想想暴饮暴食会导致的严重后果的话,能够有效的控制他们内心的食欲.结合选项,故选B.(3)B.词义猜测题.根据文章内容,Researchers don’t yet understand how thinking about food in particular ways helps control eating desires,and they are not advocating distraction techniques as a silver bullet for weight loss.研究人员现在仍然不明白为什么用特定的方式来想食物能控制食欲.他们也并不提倡用消遣技术来作为减肥的有效方式,结合选项,故选B.(4)C.主旨题.根据文章内容,本文章主要讲述了现在很多人们面临的肥胖问题,并提出了控制体重控制食欲的一个方法,即﹣﹣自我约束,并对此方法进行了研究.结合选项,故选C.4. Beijing’s Forbidden City, once home to royal families of the Ming and Qing dynasties, isa place full of wonder.From its thousands of rooms to its many beautiful artifacts(工艺品), no wonder it’s one of China’s most popular tourist destinations now.But even more than 600 years after it was built, it’s still managing to serve up surprises.Since it was built during the Ming Dynasty, it’s estimated that the Forbidden City has survived more than 200 earthquakes.And while most structures aren’t made t o survive natural disasters, let alone ones built hundreds of years ago, it seems that the Forbidden City was built to stand anything.A recent television documentary(纪录片)by UK broadcaster Channel 4explored the skills of the ancient building’s designer s.A group of Chinese carpenters and engineers were shown building a model of one of the Forbidden City’s palaces, at one fifth of the size.To show how strong ancient Chinese architecture really is, the model was put to the test.It was subjected to a simulated(模拟的)earthquake of 9.5 on the Richter scale(里氏震级)﹣the largest ever recorded quake﹣and survived.Instead of falling apart, the model was just moved gently during the test.According to experts, the answer to the Forbidden City’s strength, as well as other ancient Chinese structures’, lies in brackets or dougong﹣a centuries﹣old building method invented in China.Despite being held together without any nails or glue, the brackets are perfect at keeping structures together when the weather gets rough.“Dougong design is an important earthquake﹣resistant feature of classical Chinese structures because the framework changes in shape when under pressure, much like the shock absorbers(减震器)of a car.”according to Chinese National Geography.“Ancient Chinese craftsmen created structures that were both strong and pleasing to theeye, showing their advanced understanding of mathematics, architecture, materials, and structural science.”The Forbidden City draws visitors because of its rich history and cultural significance, but perhaps it should add one more thing to its list of attractions: earthquake shelter.(1)What happened to the model during the test?________A.It fell apart.B.It was destroyed.C.It moved slightly.D.It remained unchanged.(2)What made the Forbidden City resist earthquake?________A.The shock absorbers.B.Special building materials.C.Beautiful artifacts.D.Dougong design.(3)What can be inferred from the text?________A.Dougong design was thought highly of by the author.B.The Forbidden City will serve as an earthquake shelter soon.C.Dougong design can date back to the Ming Dynasty.D.The Forbidden City has been a tourist destination since it was built.【答案】CDA【考点】阅读理解综合【解析】本文介绍了紫禁城可以抵御地震侵袭而保持结构稳定的原因﹣﹣一种斗拱的建筑方法.【解答】(1)C.细节理解题.由第四段Instead of

These colourful and sweet jewels form British Columbia’s fields are little powerhouses of nutritional protection.Of the common berries, strawberries are highest in vitamin C, although, because of their seeds, raspberries contain a little more protein (蛋白质), iron and zinc (not that fruits have much protein). Blueberries are particularly high in antioxidants (抗氧化物质). The yellow and orange stone fruits such as peaches are high in the carotenoids we turn into vitamin A and which are antioxidants. As for cherries (樱桃), they are so delicious who caresHowever, they are rich in vitamin C.When combined with berries of slices of other fruits, frozen bananas make an excellent base for thick, cooling fruit shakes and low fat “ice cream”. For this purpose, select ripe bananas for freezing as they are much sweeter. Remove the skin and place them in plastic bags or containers and freeze. If you like, a squeeze of fresh lemon juice on the bananas will prevent them turning brown. Frozen bananas will last several weeks, depending on their ripeness and the temperature of the freezer.If you have a juicer, you can simply feed in frozen bananas and some berries or sliced fruit. Out comes a “soft-serve” creamy dessert, to be eaten right away. This makes a fun activity for a children’s party; they love feeding the fruit and frozen bananas into the top of the machine and watching the ice cream come out below.(1)What does the author seem to like about cherries?A.They contain protein.B.They are high in vitamin A.C.They have a pleasant taste.D.They are rich in antioxidants.(2)Why is fresh lemon juice used in freezing bananas?A.To make them smell better.B.To keep their colour.C.To speed up their ripening.D.To improve their nutrition.(3)What is “a juicer” in the last paragraph?A.A dessert.B.A drink.C.A container.D.A machine.(4)From which is the text probably taken?A.A biology textbook.B.A health magazine.C.A research paper.D.A travel brochure.3.Teens and younger children are reading a lot less for fun, according to a Common Sense Media report published Monday.While the decline over the past decade is steep for teen readers, some data in the report shows that reading remains a big part of many children’s lives, and indicates how parents might help encourage more reading.According to the report’s key findings, “t he proportion (比例) who say they ‘hardly ever’ read for fun has gone from 8 percent of 13-year-olds and 9 percent of 17-year-olds in 1984 to 22 percent and 27 percent respectively today.”The report data shows that pleasure reading levels for younger children, ages 2—8, remain largely the same. But the amount of time spent in reading each session has declined, from closer to an hour or more to closer to a half hour per session.When it comes to technology and reading, the report does little to counsel(建议) parents looking for data about the effect of e-readers and tablets on reading. It does point out that many parents still limit electronic reading, mainly due to concerns about increased screen time.The most hopeful data shared in the report shows clear evidence of parents serving as examples and important guides for their kids when it comes to reading. Data shows that kids and teens who do read frequently, compared to infrequent readers, have more books in the home, more books purchased for them, parents who read more often, and parents who set aside time for them to read.As the end of school approaches, and school vacation reading lists loom(逼近) ahead, parents might take this chance to step in and make their own summer reading list and plan a family trip to the library or bookstore.(1)What is the Common Sense Media report probably about?A.Children’s reading habits.B.Quality of children’s books.C.Children’s after-class activities.D.Parent-child relationships.(2)Where can you find the data that best supports "children are reading a lot less for fun"A.In paragraph 2.B.In paragraph 3.C.In paragraph 4.D.In paragraph 5.(3)Why do many parents limit electronic reading?A.E-books are of poor quality.B.It could be a waste of time.C.It may harm children’s health.D.E-readers are expensive.(4)How should parents encourage their children to read more?A.Act as role models for them.B.Ask then to write book reports.C.Set up reading groups for them.D.Talk with their reading class teachers.4.We’ve all been th ere: in a lift, in line at the bank or on an airplane, surrounded by people who are, like us, deeply focused on their smartphones or, worse, struggling with the uncomfortable silence.What’s the problemIt’s possible that we all have compromised conversational intelligence. It’s more likely that none of us start a conversation because it’s awkward and challenging, or we think it’s annoying and unnecessary. But the next time you find yourself among strangers, consider that small talk is worth the trouble. E xperts say it’s an invaluable social practice that results in big benefits.Dismissing small talk as unimportant is easy, but we can’t forget that deep relationships wouldn’teven exist if it weren’t for casual conversation. Small talk is the grease(润滑剂) for social communication, says Bernardo Carducci, director of the Shyness Research Institute at Indiana University Southeast. "Almost every great love story and each big business deal begins with small talk," he explains. "The key to successful small talk is learning how to connect with others, not just communicate with them."In a 2014 study, Elizabeth Dunn, associate professor of psychology at UBC, invited people on their way into a coffee shop. One group was asked to seek out an interaction(互动) with its waiter; the other, to speak only when necessary. The results showed that those who chatted with their server reported significantly higher positive feelings and a better coffee shop experience. "It’s not that talking to the waiter is better than talking to your husband," says Dunn. "But interactions with peripheral(边缘的) members of our social network matter for our well-being also."Dunn believes that people who reach out to strangers feel a significantly greater sense of belonging, a bond with others. Carducci believes developing such a sense of belonging starts with small talk. "Small talk is the basis of good manners," he says.(1)What phenomenon is described in the first paragraph?A.Addiction to smartphones.B.Inappropriate behaviours in public places.C.Absence of communication between strangers.D.Impatience with slow service.(2)What is important for successful small talk according to Carducci?A.Showing good manners.B.Relating to other people.C.Focusing on a topic.D.Making business deals.(3)What does the coffee-shop study suggest about small talk?A.It improves family relationships.B.It raises people’s confidence.C.It matters as much as a formal talk.D.It makes people feel good.(4)What is the best title for the text?A.Conversation CountsB.Ways of Making Small TalkC.Benefits of Small TalkD.Uncomfortable Silence5.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。
