2014江苏省溧水县高考英语阅读理解巩固训练社会生活类阅读理解Few laws are so effective that you can see results just days after they take effect. But in the nine days since the federal cigarette tax more than doubled—to $1. 01 per pack—smokers have jammed telephone“quit lines” across the country seeking to kick the habit.This is not a surprise to public health advocates. They’ve studied the effect of state tax increases for years, finding that smokers, especially teens, are price sensitive. Nor is it a shock to the industry, which fiercely fights every tax increase.The only wonder is that so many states insist on closing their ears to the message. Tobacco taxes improve public health, they raise money and most particularly, they deter people from taking up the habit as teens, which is when nearly all smokers are addicted. Yet the rate of taxation varies widely.In Manhattan, for instance, which has the highest tax in the nation, a pack of Marlboro Light Kings cost $10. 06 at one drugstore Wednesday. In Charleston, S. C. , where the 7-cent-a-pack tax is the lowest in the nation, the price was $4. 78.The influence is obvious.In New York, high school smoking hit a new low in the latest surveys—13. 8%, far below the national average. By comparison, 26% of high school students smoke in Kentucky. Other low-tax states have similarly depressing teen-smoking records.Hal Rogers, Representative from Kentucky, like those who are against high tobacco taxes, argues that the burden of the tax falls on low-income Americans“who choose to smoke.”T hat’s true. But there is more reason in keeping future generations of low-income workers from getting hooked in the first place. As for today’s adults, if the new tax drives them to quit, they will have more to spend on their families, cut their risk of cancer and heart disease and feel better.1. The text is mainly about .A. the price of cigarettesB. the rate of teen sm okingC. the effect of tobacco tax increaseD. the differences in tobacco tax rate2. What does the author think is a surprise?A. Teen smokers are price sensitive.B. Some states still keep the tobacco tax low.C. Tobacco taxes improve public health.D. Tobacco industry fiercely fights the tax rise.3. The underlined word“deter” in Paragraph 3 most probably means.A. discourageB. removeC. benefitD. free4. Rogers’ attitude towards the low-income smokers might be that of .A. toleranceB. unconcernC. doubtD. sympathy5. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. The new tax will be beneficial in the long run.B. Low-income Americans are more likely to fall ill.C. Future generations will be hooked on smoking.D. Adults will depend more on their families.【参考答案】61.1-5 CBADA[文化教育型阅读理解(一)] (一)For thousands of years, the most important two buildings in any British village have been the church and the pub. Traditionally, the church and the pub are at the heart of any village or town, where the people gather together to socialize and exchange news.As a result, Bri tish pubs are often old and well preserved. Many of them have become historic sites. The most famous example is the pub in the city of Nottingham called “The Old Trip to Jerusalem”， which dates back to the year 1189 AD and is probably the oldest pub in England.However, British pubs are not just for kings and queens; they welcome people from all classes and parts of society. On a cold night, the pub's landlord or landlady can a lways find a warm place for you by the fire. There is always honest and hearty food and plenty of drink available at an affordable price.That's how things used to be. Things are beginning to change. It is said that the credit crunch(信贷紧缩) is causing British pubs to go out of business. People do not have enoug h spare money to spend on beer. Recently, the UK government banned smoking in all pubs, and that may also have affected the number of customers going to pubs.This decline is happening despite the fact th at in 2005 the UK government started to allow pubs to stay open after 11 pm. Previously, with 11 pm as closing time, customers would have to drink quite quickly, meaning they sometimes got more drunk than they would if allowed to drink slowly. The Briti sh habit of drinking a lot very quickly is kn own as “binge drinking”， and it causes longterm health problems for people and problems with violent crime for communities.In order to save their businesses, pubs are trying to change with the market. Britis h pubs now offer something for everyone. A lot of pubs used to be “working men's clubs”， meaning that women could not usually enter. Today, however, women can freely enter 99% of pubs without experiencing any problems. Perhaps things are changing for the better after all.1．The passage mainly tells us something about ________．A．the past and present of British pubsB．the decline of British pubsC．the long history of British pubsD．the importance of British pubs2．Which may not be the cause of the decline of British pubs?A．The credit crunch.B．The present closing time.C．The ban of smoking.D．Having no spare money.3．We can infer from the passage that ________．A．British people used to like drinking slowlyB．closing the pubs early will reduce social problemsC．“binge drinking” means drinking less beerD．British government aims to discourage people from “binge drinking”4．We can see from the last paragraph that the author ________．A．is against the admissio n of too many women to the pubsB．holds an optimistic attitude towards the British pubsC．thinks that women in the pubs will cause fewer social problemsD．thinks that British pubs should offer everything you need(一)【要点综述】文章讲述了英国酒吧的发展过程及作者对将来酒吧的发展所持的乐观态度。
2014高考英语阅读理解全程巩固训练(7)
2014高考英语阅读理解全程巩固训练〔7〕与答案阅读理解-------BSurviving the boredom of a school day can be bad enough, but when you have to worry about school gangs as well it's enough to make any student want to stay at home and under the covers! Unfortunately, gang culture can be found in many British schools, and it brings with it negative, and dangerous, side effects. The presence of weapons at or near school, the appearance of graffiti on buildings and lockers, and pressure to blow off school work and exams all follow where the gangs lead. None of these things contribute to a good education, but for school gangs that's exactly the point - school is for being popular and having fun, not learning anything or preparing for the future. Keep these tips in mind and say goodbye to school gangs.Know your own mind. Often it is those with low self-esteem and a poor self-image who become victims of school gangs. These students don't know their own mind or have a clear picture of what they would like to do in the future, so it is easy to be influenced by those who don't want to do any work today.Keep yourself busy. School gangs often hang around at or near schools with no real reason. Students who have nothing scheduled can easily be sucked into these groups, but if you are busy, busy, busy and always on the move there will be less chance that you'll have the time to stay and "play".Choose your friends wisely. With a core group of like-minded friends, it is much easier to stay away from school gangs because you simply don't need them. Remember that gangs are a source of power for members, but they can also be a source of intimidation.Work hard and have fun. No one likes a teacher's pet, but school gangs in particular hate them. Work hard and have fun at school, but don't annoy anyone with extreme goody-two-shoes(伪君子〕 behaviour. School gangs can be a nightmare if you must dealwith them constantly. Stay away from gang hangouts and gang members, and don't involve yourself in any gang related activities.31. For the school gangs, school is _____.A. where they are instructed to behave themselves.B. a good place to prepare for the future.C. where they win popularity and enjoy themselves.D. a place that contributes to a good education.【答案】C【解析】细节理解题。
2014高考英语阅读理解精英定时练习题(7)
2014高考英语阅读理解精英定时练习题〔7〕与答案阅读理解-------A 篇What will city life be like in the future? Some people think that life in the cities is going to be horrible. They say that cities will become more and more crowded. As the number of people increases, there will be less space for each person. This overcrowding will cause other problems — more crime, dirtier streets , and worse problems with traffic than we have now. How will people find enough drinking water, energy (such as gas and electricity ), and housing? Because life will be hard, people who live in cities will worry more, and they may become sick. For these reasons, some say that nobody will want to live in city areas.How can we deal with such problems as overcrowding, crime, and traffic? In some cities, thousands of people are already sleeping in the streets because there is little suitable housing —and because houses are too expensive. The crime rate isn’t going down. Instead, it is increasing so fast that many people are afraid to go out at night. Traffic is also getting worse. More and more often, traffic jams are so bad that cars don’t move at all for several streets. These problems have been getting worse, not better, so many people see no hope for the future of the city.Los Angeles, California, for example, has no subway system and buses are slow. Instead, many commuters (乘、开车上班族) drive many miles from their homes to work. Many of these drivers spend several hours each day on busy freeways. New York, however, has a big transit system — buses, commuter trains, and subways. Because the public transportation is crowded and dirty, many people drive private cars, and the traffic jams are worse than that in Los Angeles. A taxi driver complains, “I was driving home, but in forty-five minutes I moved only two miles! Finally, I turned off the engine and just sat there. A lot of people left their cars where they were in the middle of the street and went into a bar for a few beers!〞On the other hand, some cities have clean, fast and pleasant public transportation systems. In Paris, France, and Toronto, Canada, for example, anyone can use buses or subways to move quickly from one part of the city to another.46. What do some people think is the main problem of the future city like?A. Poor housing.B. Overcrowding.C. Environmental pollution.D. Traffic jams.47. The best way to work out the traffic problem in Los Angels might be_________________.A. cutting down the number of private carsB. providing more buses in the freewayC. building a subway systemD. persuading people to live nearer to their workplaces48. Which of the following sentences is NOT TRUE?A. Thousands of people are already sleeping in the streets.B. The crime rate isn’t going down.C. The traffic jams are so bad that cars don’t move at all for several streets.D. Many people have a positive attitude towards the future of the city.参考答案46—48、BCD阅读理解Last year my wife and I spent a most interesting month in Turkey. Before we left, we were reminded of the difficulties of driving in Turkey. We certainly did not find this to be the case and, except for a few places in faraway mountain areas, the roads were wide, and well-paved (铺设). We drove for 12 days along the Western Coast of Turkey and had no problems at all. We found the Turkish drivers to be very polite and well educated. We also found that eating lunch in the smaller towns was difficult, so we picnicked almost every day.The following day after our arrival was Turkey’s Children’s Day, started by Mustafa Kemal Ataturk. Ataturk loved children and he often said:“ Children are a new beginning of tomorrow.〞 He even dedicated (奉献) the day 23rd of April to the children which today is celebrated as Children’s Day as well as t he date when the Republic of Turkey was founded.On that day certain children are picked to take over the places of the government, and a lucky kid will be the president of Turkey for a whole day. He can decide what’s going to happen and whether or not he is going to have the president next to him.There are a very large number of possibilities of things he can do but some shops aren’t open because they are celebrating the day as well.All in all, it was a more enjoyable trip. I would recommend (推荐) a trip to Turkey to anyone with an adventurous (冒险的) spirit!66. Before the author and his wife went on a trip to Turkey, they were told that________.A. it was difficult to travel in TurkeyB. it was not easy to drive in TurkeyC. the streets in Turkey were dangerousD. there were many mountainous roads67. Which of the following is TRUE, according to the first paragraph?A. Places in mountain areas were difficult to reach.B. The couple drove for 12 days during their journey.C. The Turkish drivers had good manners.D. It was difficult to eat meals in Turkey.68. The underlined word “He〞 in Paragraph 3 refers to ________.A. every one of usB. the governmentC. the president of TurkeyD. the lucky child69. What can be inferred from the passage?A. The couple had no difficulty making their way in Turkey.B. Turkey’s National Day falls on the 22nd of April.C. The author joined in celebrating Children’s Day.D. On Turkey’s Children’s Day everyone was busy.70. What does the author think of the trip to Turkey?A. Interesting and dangerous.B. Difficult and expensive.C. Enjoyable and exciting.D. Boring and adventurous.参考答案-------------66---70 BCDAC第四局部：阅读理解〔共20小题，每一小题2分，总分为40分〕阅读如下短文，从每题所给的四个选项〔A、B、C和D〕中，选出最优选项.〔A)E-book is short for electronic( 电子的) book. It is usually read on personal computers. Some mobile phones can also be used to read e-books.Earlier e-books were written for a specific(专业〕 group of readers and were about only a few subjects. With the development of the Internet, knowledge and answers to a lot of questions mainly come from e-books. This is why the e-book business is increasing quickly.E-books have many advantages. First, they save time. We don’t need to go to a bookstore to buy books, besides, we can find the topic we want to know about on the Internet, and then we can quickly get many e-books on similar topics. Second, e-books save money. Some e-books cost a little money, and there are millions of e-books on the Internet that we can get for free. Third, more trees are saved because e-books don’t need to be printed(印刷) on paper. Fourth, e-books make reading more convenient. You can carry a whole library of hundreds of books with you in a small computer or any e-book reader (电子阅读器) without worrying about their weight.But e-books have certain disadvantages. They need a personal computer or an e-book reader and the information can be lost if its file format (文件格式) is not supported 〔支持〕or changed in the reader’s computer.However, e-books provide us with a new way of reading. That is good.56. Why is the e-book business increasing quickly? Because _________.A. earlier e-books are about only a few subjects.B. people don’t like to read any paper books any more.C. most e-books have been written for a specific group of readers.D. the development of the Internet makes e-books more useful.57.

All the e-books on the Internet cost lots of money.C. E-books can make reading more convenient.D. You can’t read e-books without a personal computer.59. What is the disadvantage of the e-books?A. You’ll lose the information if its file format is not supported.B. You can carry hundreds of books in an e-book reader.C. You can buy cheap e-books anywhere.D. You can read e-books at any time.60. The author mainly tells us __________.A. you don’t need to buy paper books in a bookstore if you read e-books.B. the information can be lost if its file format is changed.C. the development of e-books can help save the environment.D. e-books provide us with a new way of reading.阅读理解------B篇One day a lady saw a mouse running across her kitchen floor.

2014江苏省溧水县高考英语阅读理解巩固训练社会现象类(2013·湖北，D)A German study suggests that people who were too optimistic about their future actually faced greater risk of disability or death within 10 years than those pessimists who expected their future to be worse.The paper, published this March in Psychology and Aging, examined health and welfare surveys from roughly 40,000 Germans between ages 18 and 96.The surveys were conducted every year from 1993 to 2003.Survey respondents (受访者) were asked to estimate their present and future life satisfaction on a scale of 0 to 10, among other questions.The researchers found that young adults (age 18 to 39) r outinely overestimated their future life satisfaction, while middleaged adults (age 40 to 64) more accurately predicted how they would feel in the future.Adults of 65 and older, however, were far more likely to underestimate their future life satisfaction.Not only did they feel more satisfied than they thought they would, the older pessimists seemed to suffer a lower ratio (比率) of disability and death for the study period.“We observed that being too optimistic in predicting a better future than actually observed was associated with a greater risk of disability and a greater risk of death within the following decade，” wro te Frieder R．Lang, a professor at the University of ErlangenNuremberg.Lang and his colleagues believed that people who were pessimistic ab out their future may be more careful about their actions than people who expected a rosy future.“Seeing a dark fut ure may encourage positive evaluations of the actual self and may contribute to taking improved precautions(预防措施)，”the authors wrote.Surprisingly, compared with those in poor health or who had low incomes, respondents who enjoyed good health or income were associated with expecting a greater decline.Also, the researchers said that higher income was related to a greater risk of disability.The authors of the study noted that there were limitations to their conclusions.Illness, medical treatment and personal loss could also have driven health outcomes.However, the researchers said a pattern was clear.“We found that from early to late adulthood, individuals adapt their expectations of future lifesatisfaction from optimistic, to accurate, to pessimistic，” the authors concluded.5．According to the study, who made the most accurate prediction of their future life satisfaction?A．Optimistic adults. B．Middleaged adults.C．Adults in poor health. D．Adults of lower income.解析细节理解题。
由文章第四段第一句话“The researchers found that young adults (age 18 to 39) routinely overestimated their future life satisfaction, while middleaged adults (age 40 to 64) more accurately predicted how they would feel in the future.”可知中年人可以更加精确地预测他们的未来。
故选B项。
答案 B6．Pessimism may be positive in some way because it causes people________.A．to fully enjoy their present lifeB．to estimate their contribution accuratelyC．to take measures against potential risksD．to value health more highly than wealth解析细节理解题。
由第六、七段中的关键信息“...people who were pessimistic about their future may be more careful about their actions...”及“...contribute to taking improved precautions(预防措施)．..”可知对未来持悲观态度的人会对他们的行动更加小心并且采取一些预防措施，故选C项。
答案 C7．How do people of higher income see their future?A．They will earn less money.B．They will become pessimistic.C．They will suffer mental illness.D．They will have less time to enjoy life.解析细节理解题。
由第八段第一句话“Surprisingly, compared with those i n poor health or who had low incomes, respondents who enjoyed good health or income were associated with expecting a greater decline.”可知工资高的人会预料他们未来工资的下降，故选A项。
答案 A8．What is the clear conclusion of the study?A．Pessimism guarantees chances of survival.B．Good financial condition leads to good health.C．Medical treatment determines health outcomes.D．Expectations of future life satisfaction decline with age.解析推理判断题。
由最后一段的最后一句话“‘We found that from early to late adulthood, individuals adapt their expectations of future life satisfaction from optimistic, to accurate, to pessimistic，’the authors concluded.”可知对未来生活满意度的预测随年龄的增长而下降。
答案 D[时闻型阅读理解------(二)Experts say the temperature in Eyjaf jallajokull's hole appears to have fallen to 100℃， meaning it is now producing steam, not magma(岩浆)．But officials warned that it was too early to say whether the eruption was over completely.Ash clouds from the volcano grounded thousands of flights last month.Steinunn Jakobsdottir, a geophysicist from the Icelandic Meteorological Office, told the BBC that the volcano w as “kind of not active for the moment”．“The history of the volc ano is such that it calms down and then it gets energy again，” she said.“There are still earthquakes under the volcano, and the small earthquake is still not quite down to what it was before the eruption.”Magnus Gudmundsson, of Iceland U niversity, flew over the volcano on Sunday and said information from heat cameras showed the temperatures at the crater had fallen-below 100℃.But he told the AFP news agency that nothing was promised and that the previous eruption at the volcano had lasted 13 months, from 1821—1823.“It stopped and started again several times with different intervals(间隔), so it's difficult to say, difficult to give a timeline，” he said.He also said it was impossible to say whether the neighbouring Katla Volcano—a much larger mountain—might also erupt.At the height of its activity, the volcano sent out huge clouds of ash, whichled to airlines grounding their planes for fear it could interfere with plane engines.It was the biggest action of closing airspace in Europe since World War Ⅱ， and affected at least 10 million passengers worldwide.1．What do experts think Eyjafjallajokull is like now?A．Magma is still coming out.B．The hole appears about 100℃.C．The eruption was not over.D．It is very cold.2．How do experts know the temperature in Eyjafjallajokull's hole?A．By taking photos.B．By taking its temperature.C．By going close to it.D．By driving past it.3．What does Steinunn Jakobsdottir think of Eyjafjallajokull? A．It will erupt again soon.B．It will be sleeping.C．Another mountain might also erupt.D．It's uncertain.4．What do you think the main idea is?A．The biggest action of closing airspace in Europe.B．The temperature in Eyjafjallajokull's hole.C．The Eyjafjallajokull volcano in Iceland.D．The earthquake in Iceland.(二)【要点综述】一些专家认为，艾雅法拉火山的温度降到了100℃，也就是不会再爆发，但也有的专家提出了不同的观点。
