【英语】高考英语试卷分类汇编英语阅读理解(人物故事)(及答案)含解析一、高中英语阅读理解人物故事类1．Directions: Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.When she was ten years old, Isadora Duncan dropped out of school to teach people dance. If that job was left to any other ten-year-old, it would have turned out frustrating, difficult, and a little discouraging.But Duncan was different. Not only was she already talented enough to earn money even at that age, but she also had a rare kind of confidence that helped her treat troubles as fuel —something to elevate the fire that is already burning inside of her.It's no surprise, then, that when she moved to New York to join a theatre company, she found herself restricted. The existing dancing style, their way of operating—all of this seemed to her the work of a misguided past. Duncan was very direct about what she wanted, confidently telling people she had a different vision of dance that she was going to spread in the world. This, naturally, led to ridicule and laughs early on, but as she built up her work, these instances became less frequent. Today, she is remembered as "The Mother of Dance," with much of the modern art owing its expressive style to her influence. Inspired by the ancient Greeks, she brought the style to life.In her autobiography (自传), one of the things Duncan frequently refers to as the basis of her expressive spirit is the fact that she had a childhood where she wasn't constantly watched. The expectations of her mother (who raised her) were open-ended. It was the freedom of this lifestyle that drove her to see what she could do.Growing up, before she left school, she was told one of two things: that she was either completely useless or that she was a genius. There was nothing in between. Even when she started working, people either bowed to her or they basically ignored her. But there wasn't one moment Duncan doubted her own genius.There is an old quotation "if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid." And it captures an important truth. At school, Isadora Duncan was a failure. In the dance hall, she gave form to brilliance.（1）What does the underlined phrase "treat troubles as fuel" mean?A.Duncan used troubles to push her forward towards her dream.B.Duncan was good at burning away everyday troubles.C.Troubles turned Duncan into a confident girl.D.Troubles lit the fire of dancing in Duncan.（2）Which of the following is TRUE about Duncan?A.Her experience in New York was the foundation of her career.B.Her teaching job when she was little destroyed her confidence.C.Her dancing style was not very well received at the beginning.D.Her mother set higher expectation on her than she could bear.（3）What does the author try to tell the readers in the last paragraph?A.It is useless climbing a tree to catch fish.B.Everybody is a genius in his own way.C.Miseries come from human stupidity.D.Teachers can impact students greatly.（4）What is this passage mainly about?A.Isadora Duncan's childhood and her achievements today.B.Duncan's career development and other dancers' opinions of her.C.Isadora Duncan's early experiences and the reasons for her success.D.Duncan's high status in the dancing world and her unique expressive style.【答案】（1）A（2）C（3）B（4）C【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，伊莎多拉·邓肯十岁时辍学去教别人跳舞，作者讲述了她的早期的经历以及其取得成功的原因。

When I said Sacramento, he said that was a coincidence 16 his Chicago friend spent the summer in Sacramento last year and he lived next door to a 17 who had a tennis court in his backyard. I said I felt that really was a coincidence (巧合) because my next-door neighbour had gone to Sacramento last summer and had 18 the house next to my brother’s house.

The simple answer is that it is a global trading platform where nearly anyone can trade practically anything. People can sell and buy all kinds of products and goods, including cars, movies and DVDs, sporting goods, travel tickets, musical instruments, clothes and shoes—the list goes on and on.The idea came from Peter Omidyar, who was born in Paris and moved to Washington when he was still a child. At high school, he became very interested in computer programming and after graduating from Tuft University in 1988, he worked for the next few years as a computer engineer. In his free time he started eBay as a kind of hobby, at first offering the service free by word of mouth. By 1996 there was so much traffic on the website that he had to upgrade（升级）and he began charging a fee to members. Joined by a friend, Peter Skoll, and in 1998 by his capable CEO, Meg Whitman, he has never looked back. Even in the great. com crashes of the late 1990s, eBay has gone from strength to strength. It is now one of the ten most visited online shopping websites on the Internet.eBay sells connections, not goods, putting buyer and seller into contact with each other. All you have to do is take an e-photo, write a description, fill out a sales form and you’re in business: the world is your market place. Of course for each item （商品）sold eBay gets a percentage and that is a great deal of money. Every day there are more than sixteen million items listed on eBay and eighty percent of the items are sold.13. We learn from the text that eBay provides people with___________.A. a way of buying and selling goodsB. a website for them to upgradeC. a place to exhibit their own photosD. a chance to buy things at low prices14. Why did Peter create eBay after graduating from university?A. For fun.B. To make money.C. For gathering the engineers.D. To fulfill a task of his company.15. From “he has never looked back ”in Paragraph 2 we learn that Peter__________.A. did not feel lonelyB. was always hopefulC. did not think about the pastD. became more and more successful16. How does eBay make money from its website?A. By bringing callers together.B. By charging for each sale.C. By listing items online.D. By making e-photos.6、【文章大意】eBay是进行全球贸易的网络平台，你可以通过它买到任何你所需的商品，大到汽车小到一双鞋子，你只要轻点鼠标就可以买到。

高中英语阅读理解(人物故事)试题(有答案和解析)及解析一、高中英语阅读理解人物故事类1．阅读理解Arthur Dubois isn't your typical grandfather. That's because at 72 years old, the Chicago resident is a newly discovered hip-hop artist.This week, Dubois walked into Haven Studios, a music program on the South Side of Chicago that supports young ambitious artists. The owner of Haven Studios, Andre "Add-2" Daniels, said Dubois claimed he was "young at heart." So, Daniels decided to listen to Dubois' music. He was completely floored. Daniels quickly took videos showcasing Dubois' talents and posted them to Twitter. His tweet went viral, receiving thousands of reactions within a matter of days. Now, Dubois' talents have even caught the attention of some famous hip-hop producers."It's not what you would expect, right?" Daniels says in one of the videos. Dubois music is playing in the background, giving a steady beat that easily invites listeners to dance.Dubois said his style was entirely self-taught. He first started teaching himself to produce hip-hop beats about six years ago, after he retired. "I found something to do," he told NPR's Scott Simon. "I had to learn how to do the computer and music at the same time." Dubois taught himself by using the audio editing software. Now he's learning another new skill-social media. Dubois' newfound social media fame has been a little overwhelming for him. "I was shocked," he said. "I broke down and cried because I didn't know that many people liked me." Daniels has helped Dubois set up accounts on Twitter and Instagram for his fans to follow, "I'd never used Instargram, Twitter and all that other stuff," Dubois said. "Because I didn't believe in that stuff myself. But now I've got to have it."

答案：1.A解析：她的写作技能是她“偶然学到”的，pickup当“偶然学到”讲，可以说pick 叩alanguage／askill等。

本题干扰性最大的是experience，“经验”只能是慢慢“积累”而不能是“偶然”学到；practice意思是“实践”，与pick叩也不搭配；method可以跟pick 叩搭配，但此处不是指写作“方法”，而是写作“技巧”。

2.C解析：空后的teachingdisabledchildren是前面内容的同位语，教残疾儿童应是一种工作，且后文有"part-timewriter'’ (业余作家)，也说明她有一份工作。

3.D解析：此处指“当时”她成为IBM的业余作者时，写作仅仅是个人爱好，故用then ＝atthattime．其他选项没有把握好上下文的逻辑关系。

4．C解析：全句意为：在当时，写作／写故事不过是她的一项个人兴趣(不是工作或谋生的手段)。

5．A 解析：此空选A，是因为他们(出版商)感兴趣，此处interested与主语是被动的主谓关系，如不感兴趣，他们便不会提建议了。

此处出版商不可能是“着急”“严肃”或“受鼓励”。

6．B解析：出版商(或编辑们)建议她(把三个故事)放在一起，组成一部长篇小说，所以此空填B由语境可排除其他选项，她写的不是“电影”“程序”，也不是“文章”。

7．D 解析：出版商人预付了Tracy 5万美元，且说：对一个不出名的作者来说这是一笔不小的数目。

此处的pretty近于 alarge／considerablesur sum of，意为“挺不错、够多了”，从逻辑分析看，5万美元对于外国的／受欢迎的/非凡的作者就可能显得少了。

8.B解析：此处构成的只能是让步关系，表示“尽管”她小说中的人物非常有趣，但有时却使读者感到不自在，故用even though／if now that"既然”，引导原因状语从句；C 是原因状语从句；D是介词后的宾语从句，意为“除了”。

)9．C 解析：leave意为“使……处于某种状态”，即“她的故事有时候使读者处于不安状态中。

“uneasy”是宾语补足语，符合leave的用法。

findsb．．．意思是“发现某人……”不合题意；其他动词不合搭配。

10．B 解析：根据后句"SheusedtO．．．yearsago"(她过去常常让我同已死去多年的祖母说话)可知，母亲相信作者能和人死后所去的世界沟通。

故选amakeup“编造；构成比例”，不合题意；control"控制”；explain"解释”都不合逻辑，因为没有人能够控制或解释人死后的世界。

11．D 解析：此处是说她生活中有些“时刻”非常奇怪，令人难以置信。

12．A 解析：Tracy认为自己不能与阴间沟通，但她的确遇到过无缘无故就发生了事情的时候，后文无缘无故得到的那本书便是例子。

所以此空填fornoreason(无缘无故、不知为什么)。

fromadistance"从远处”；byaccident“偶然地”；asgifts"作为礼物”均不合语境。

13．C 解析：空后的“set in ancient China"是过去分词作定语，修饰空内要填的词，意即：(时空)设定在古代中国的……，据此填scene最好。

全句的意思是：有一次，她正不知道怎么样完成一个设定在古代中国的场面。

此时她在写作。

B项和D项均不妥，她不是在绘画或交谈；A项description(描述)肯定会有很强的干扰性，但与后面作定语的分词短语搭配不当。

“一个设定在古代中国的描述”肯定不妥。

14．B 解析：门铃突然响了，合乎情理。

门铃响应不是令人吃惊的事(排除A)，但也不是意料中所指望的事(排除C)fortunately多指危险中出现了转机或好事，用于此处有些夸大，且fortunately多被逗号同句子隔开。

15．B 解析：Tracy写古代中国的场面时遇到困难，一本书中雪中送炭，帮了大忙。

这本书应该是关于中国历史的，如这本书是关于其他方面的，就帮不上忙了。

16．D 解析：她没订购这本书，这本书就在需要时刻来了，正符合上文的“无缘无故就发生了一些事的时候”。

17．A 解析：本句中的though是关键词，下文的sallie也给提示。

全句意思是：尽管她已出版了10部著作(应该名利双收了)，但盛名之下，她并没有改变。

后文的“She lives in the same．．．she lived 27 yearsago．”也说明她没多大变化。

unmoved的意思是“没有被感动”，用在此处不合语境。
