(英语)高三英语阅读理解(人物故事)题20套(带答案)一、高中英语阅读理解人物故事类1.阅读理解Three months after Hurricane Katrina in 2005, Rebecca Sell, then 24, a photojournalist for Fredericksburg photographed a New Orleans couple worriedly examining water-spotted photo albums. As she took the photo, something within her clicked. "I told them I could take the ruined pictures, copy them and give them digitally restored (修复) photos," she recalls. Although a bit sceptical, the couple agreed. Rebecca took their photos home, restored them and took them to the couple at their temporary home. "It felt so good to be able to do that for them," says Rebecca. When her editor, Dave Ellis, saw the photo of the couple, he suggested they go back and restore damaged photos for even more people. So in January 2006, with paid time off from the paper, the two set up shop in Pass Christian. After posting a notice in the community newsletter, Rebecca and Dave received 500 photos in four days. For each, the pair took a new digital picture, then used high-tech software to erase water spots and restore colors. It just so happened that a popular website linked to Dave's blog about the experience, and soon Operation Photo Rescue, as it came to be known, had emails from hundreds of volunteers, including photographers and restoration experts, eager to help.Though digital restoration is a painstaking process, mending irreplaceable family pictures means the world to victims like Emily Lancaster, 71, who took out piles of ruined photo albums after Katrina, never thinking the mess could be saved. But she just couldn't bear to part with a few treasured pictures, including a portrait of her father, who had passed away, and a photo of her husband as a boy. Then she heard about Operation Photo Rescue. "I didn't have a whole lot of hope they could fix them, but they did," Emily says. "Almost every day I think about all the pictures I've lost. I'm so happy to have these two."In the five years since Katrina, Operation Photo Rescue has collected thousands of pictures ruined by floods, hurricanes and tornadoes. Volunteers make "copy runs" to disaster areas across the country to gather damaged photos from survivors; operating costs are covered by donations. "It's great to be able to give people some of their history back," says Rebecca. "One person told me that thanks to us, her grandmother got to see her photos again before she passed away. Moments like that remind me why I do this."(1)When Rebecca took the picture of the New Orleans couple, she decided to .A. take them to their temporary homeB. help with their damaged photosC. set up shop in Pass ChristianD. cover Hurricane Katrina(2)From Paragraph 2, we know that Dave and Rebecca .A. quit their jobs in 2006B. inspired volunteers to join themC. spent four days mending the photosD. made their work known in their newspaper (3)How did Emily Lancaster feel when she first heard about Operation Photo Rescue? A. Excited. B. Hopeless. C. Satisfied. D. Sceptical.(4)What is the best title for the passage?A. Surviving HurricanesB. An Act of GenerosityC. Saving MemoriesD. A Lucky Couple【答案】(1)B(2)B(3)D(4)C【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文,摄影记者丽贝卡塞尔和编辑戴夫·埃利斯通过照片修复,他们让很多人丢失的记忆得到恢复,同时,也赢得了人们的肯定。

高三英语阅读理解(人物故事)解题技巧及经典题型及练习题(含答案)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。

Whitman created a new kind of poetry.Walt Whitman was born in eighteen nineteen in New York City. During his long life, he watched America grow from a young nation to the strongest industrial power in the world.

He called it Leaves of Grass. It had only twelve poems. The poems are written in free verse. The lines do not follow any set form. Some lines are short. Some are long. The words at the end of each line do not have a similar sound. They do not rhyme.One of America's greatest thinkers and writers immediately recognized the importance of Leaves of Grass. Ralph Waldo Emerson praised Whitman's work. But most other poets and writers said nothing and even denounced it. Most readers also rejected Whitman's poems. The new form of his poetry surprised many people. Even his own brother told Whitman that he should stop writing poetry. But Whitman had many things to say. And he continued to say them. Readers began to understand that America had a great new poetic voice.Walt Whitman's poems praise the United States and its democracy. The poet expressed his love for America and its people in many ways. Experts today praise Leaves of Grass as a major literary work. In eighteen seventy-three, Walt Whitman suffered a stroke. He spent the last years of his life in Camden, New Jersey. Whitman was poor and weak during the last years of his life. He died in eighteen ninety-two.

高三英语阅读理解(人物故事)模拟试题含解析 一、高中英语阅读理解人物故事类 1.阅读理解 For the past few months, my three-year-old daughter has spent an hour every week learning a foreign language. She walks into a small room in a local school, where she and a handful of three and four-year-old spend the next hour dancing to “La Vaca Lola”, a song about a Spanish cow, creating finger puppets(木偶) to voice what they like and don't like (me gusta, no me gusta) and shouting out which animals are big (grande) or small (pequeno). She tells us little about the classes. In fact, for the first few weeks, nothing at all. I begin to wonder if it was a huge mistake (each lesson works out at about £9) but then I show her “La Vaca Lola” on YouTube. She shouts vaca with enthusiasm and with what I hope is a Spanish accent. The wish to enroll(使……加入) her in language lessons came, like most things, gradually and then in a sudden rush. In my day job, I read and edit stories about the Chinese economy. For a long time, I felt that it would be good for her to learn another language but I had no great plan as to when. Then I read Edward Luce's The Retreat of Western Liberalism and all my thoughts and worry about the economy combined into a panic. Waking in a sweat, it seemed obvious that if my daughter was to have any kind of future, she would have to learn another language. Ideally (理想地) immediately. I thought about Mandarin Chinese, one of the top 10 languages most important for our future, according to the British Council (others include Arabic, French, German, Portuguese, Italian, Russian, Dutch and Japanese). But there were no classes for young children nearby. There were, however, local Spanish classes—the number-one language on the list. When she started to sing "Incy Wincy Spider" in Spanish and English—helped by a Spanish nursery worker-our decision was made. (1)What can we learn about the author's daughter from the first paragraph? A. She uses finger puppets to make her voice heard. B. She is the oldest student in her Spanish class. C. She learns Spanish by dancing to songs. D. She has learnt Spanish for one month. (2)How did the author feel about her daughter's class at first? A. Proud. B. Surprised. C. Delighted D. Doubtful. (3)Why did the author ask her daughter to learn a foreign language? A. To prepare her for the coming school education. B. To equip her for her future. C. To encourage her to have belief in herself. D. To develop her interest in singing. (4)What made the author decide to enroll her daughter in Spanish lessons? A. Her performance. B. Her great interest. C. The nursery worker's suggestion. D. The fast-growing economy. 【答案】 (1)C (2)D (3)B (4)A 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文,作者让自己的女儿学习一种外语的原因以及学习过程中出现的一些问题。 (1)考查细节理解。根据第一段中的“She walks into a small room in a local school, where she and a handful of three and four-year-old spend the next hour dancing to La Vaca Lola”可知,她和几个3、4岁大的孩子在一起通过唱歌跳舞学西班牙语。故选C。 (2)考查推理判断。根据第二段中的”She tells us little about the classes I begin to wonder if it was a huge mistake (each lesson works out at about £9)“可知,作者的女儿从来不会谈起她的西班牙语课,这让作者很怀疑自己是否该给女儿报班学习。故作者最初对女儿的课感觉是可疑的。故选D。(3)考查细节理解。根据倒数第二段中的"it seemed obvious that if my daughter was to have any kind of future, she would have to learn another language."可知,作者认为自己的女儿若想有一个美好的未来就必须掌握一门外语。故选B。 (4)考查细节理解。根据最后一段中的”When she started to sing ’Incy Wincy Spider‘ in Spanish and English-helped by a Spanish nursery worker-our decision was made.?“当她开始用西班牙语和英语演唱“Incy Wincy Spider”时,在一位西班牙托儿所工作人员的帮助下,我们做出了决定。可知,是女儿的表现使作者决定让女儿学西班牙语。故选A。 【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解和推理判断两个题型的考查,是一篇故事类阅读,要求考生准确捕捉细节信息,并根据上下文进行逻辑推理,从而选出正确答案。

They did not make me happy, however, as this was the day I was to be thrown into school for the first time."Why school?" I asked my father. "What have I done?""I'm not punishing you," he said, laughing. "School's not a punishment. It's a place that makes useful men out of boys.

阅读理解人物故事类押题【押题1】Would you believe that the first outstanding deaf teacher in America was a Frenchman? His name was Laurent Clerc. He became a friend of Thomas Hopkins Gallaudet and together they founded America's first school for the deaf.Laurent Clerc was born in a small village near Lyons, France, on December 26, 1785. When he was one year old, he fell into a fire, losing both his hearing and his sense of smell.At 12, Laurent entered the Royal Institution for the Deaf in Paris where he excelled in his studies. After he graduated, the school asked him to stay on as an assistant teacher.Meanwhile, in America, Thomas Hopkins Gallaudet was studying to be a minister. He was very concerned about the lack of educational opportunities for the deaf. Therefore, in 1815, Gallaudet sailed to London, England to seek ideas on how to teach deaf people. While he was there, he met a French educator of the deaf who invited him to go to Paris to spend three months learning at the Royal Institution for the Deaf, the school where Laurent Clerc was teaching. Gallaudet accepted the offer. The two worked and studied well together. When the time came for Gallaudet to return, he asked Clerc to come with him. Clerc accepted on one condition: that he would stay in America only a short time.The two men set sail on June 18, 1816. The voyage across the Atlantic Ocean took 52 days; however, Clerc and Gallaudet put the time to good use. Clerc studied English, and Gallaudet studied sign language. They discussed the school for the deaf which they planned to open. On the long trip, they had many conversations about education and deafness. The year after they arrived, they founded a school for the deaf in Harford, Connecticut.At the school, Clerc led a busy life. He taught signs to Principal Gallaudet; he taught the pupils; and he taught hearing men who came to the school to study deaf education.In 1819, Clerc married Eliza Crocker Boardman, one of his pupils.

在选材时,不仅注重名家的生平,也关注与名人生活、事业息息相关的人或事,当然,也不乏一些介绍普通人学习、生活和工作等的故事。

本文在命题方面突出高考命题的灵活性:既注重特定细节的准确理解,又注重推理判断题的考查,同时涉及了事情先后顺序的排列,体现了命题的多样性。

【试题解析】1. C 第四段“he was concerned about the lack of opportunities for deaf people in America和he went to London to seek ideas on how to teach deaf people.”与C项表达虽然不同,但意思基本一致。

【考场秘招】细节题都可以从原文中找到答案,只不过为了迷惑考生,常常将原文进行改写,换一种说法。

所以,照抄原文,一字不改的不一定就是答案,而与原文意思相同的,才是正确的。

2. A 推理判断题。

可以用排除法解答此题,B项不可能,Clerc懂法语、手语、还在旅途中学习英语;C项文中既没有说明为什么与Eliza结婚,更谈不上当时是否有“绿卡”。

D 项没有足够的信息推断挣钱多少。

根据文中“an excellent teacher, learned many different language,succeeded in school”等信息可以推断he was an intelligent man。

3. B 细节理解题。

根据第6段中“they studied English and Sign Language, and discussed the school for the deaf which they planned to open.”可以确定答案是B。

4. C 逻辑顺序题。

根据第3段Clerc went to school in Paris.、第五段became Gallaudets Sign Language teacher、第六段in 1816, after the two men studied together in Paris 和最后一段in 1819, Clerc got married.可确定其先后顺序C项正确。
