高三必备英语阅读理解(人生百味)技巧全解及练习题(含答案)含解析一、高中英语阅读理解人生百味类1.阅读理解I stopped to watch my little girl busy playing in her room. In one hand was a plastic phone ; in the other a toy. I listened as she was speaking to her make-believe little friend and I'll never forget the words she said, even though it was imagined.She said, "Suzie's in the corner because she's not been very good. She didn't listen to a word I said or do the things she should." In the corner I saw her baby doll well dressed. It was obvious that she'd been put there to sit alone and think.My daughter continued her "conversation", as I sat down on the floor. She said, "I'm all fed up and I just don't know what to do with her any more. She cries whenever I have to work and wants to play games too. She tries to help me with the dishes, but her arms just cannot reach... And she doesn't know how to fold towels. I don't have the time to teach. I have a lot of work to do and a big house to keep clean. I don't have the time to sit and play - don't you know what I mean?"And that day I thought a lot about making some changes in my life, after listening to her innocent words which cut me like a knife. I hadn't been paying enough attention to what I hold most dear. I'd been caught up in responsibilities that increased throughout the years.But now my attitude has changed because in my heart I realize that I've seen the world in a different light through my little darling's eyes. So let the cobwebs(蜘蛛网) cut the corners and the dust bunny rabbit rule the floor. I'm not going to worry about keeping up with them anymore. I'm going to fill the house with memories of a child and her mother, for we have only one childhood and we will never get another.(1)Who is Suzie?A.The girl's phone.B.A baby doll.C.The author.D.The girl's friend.(2)How did the author feel when hearing her little girl's words?A.Interested.B.Moved.C.Uncomfortable.D.Unbelievable.(3)The passage leads us to believe that .A.the author wants her little girl to have a happy childhood.B.the author has become lazy because of her daughter.C.the author cares nothing about her daughter's happiness.D.the little girl doesn't hate her mother any more.(4)What might be the best title?A.How to deal with my daughter.B.My lovely daughter.C.Only one childhood.D.A world of children.【答案】(1)B(2)C(3)A(4)C【解析】【分析】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文,作者通过和女儿相处的一件小事,有感而发,觉得童年只有一个,从而要让女儿过一个快乐的童年。

Part of me wanted to say how good she looked, but another part stopped the words coming out.Jenny was in such good shape that she'd look good in the outfit.Sometimes, I regretted choosing a best friend who was so pretty.God,why can't I be the one with the rich parents and the great look?More and more, I was envious(妒忌的)of her.“Well,Teresa,what do you think?”Jenny asked more than once.“Do you like it?''The outfit looked great on her,but I lied,“Not really.I think you need something with more colors.''“You think so?"Jenny said doubtfully.“Just beli eve me.We'll find something better,"I told her,pushing her back into the dressing room.“You just can't buy the first thing you see.”I did my best to get Jenny out of the store,away from that outfit.As we left,Jenny gave the sweater one last look.Just down the mall,we passed a yogurt place."My treat,''Jenny said,pulling out her wallet.I could never say no to chocolate,so we got some and sat down at a table.As Jenny talked without stopping about a million things,I thought about my feelings toward her.Those feelings weren't kind.Sitting there,▲ Jenny was attractive(吸引人的)not just because of her good luck,but more because of her kindness.Treating me to chocolate was far from her only show of generosity.She also let me drive her car and borrow her colothes.Finishing our chocolate,we headed for the next clothing store."Look at that red sweater.''Jenny said as we passed the window."It would be perfect for you.Soon maybe you'll have enough by saving your babysitting money to buy something like that.”A few minutes earlier,all I had heard was about saving my babysitting money.I had hated the fact that Jenny could ask her parents for anything,and they'd buy it for her.This time,though.I heard more.I heard the voice of someone who loved and cared me for who I was.I needed to express the same to her.(1)Teresa felt when Jenny came out of the dressing room in the new outfit.A. enviousB. excitedC. lonelyD. comfortable(2)Teresa and Jenny after they left the first clothing store.A. headed for the next clothing storeB. talked about the outfit Jenny wantedC. had some chocolate at a yogurt placeD. ended the friendship between them(3)Which of the following can be put in the blank?A.

高三英语阅读理解(人生百味)解题技巧及经典题型及练习题(含答案)一、高中英语阅读理解人生百味类1.阅读理解A few years back I worked in a university building that also housed a department full of psychologists, all of whom seemed to see us as perfect guinea pigs(豚鼠) for their latest theories. If an eager graduate student showed up in my office bearing desserts and asked me to pick one, I'd cast a careful glance and ask "Why?" before grabbing the apple pie.So one day, when someone from the Psychology Department posted instructions in the bathroom persuading all of us to "Think about five things for which you're grateful every day for a week!" my response was frankly doubtful. I did the math. Five things a day for seven days is a lot of brainpower to expend without so much as the promise of an apple pie.I wandered into the office of Heidi Zetzer, the director of our school's Psychological Services Clinic. "What's with the gratitude thing?" I asked. You don't ask an academic question-even a simple one unless you're prepared for a long answer. Heidi came alive, and I sat down. That's when I first heard the term "positive psychology". The gratitude thing, as I had called it, was but one small and simple element of the practice. "Kind of like training the brain to focus on joy," my friend Heidi explained. "It's only a week," she urged. "Try it." I did. And guess what? It worked. Every day for a week, I found five distinct things for which I was thankful. They had to be different every day. I couldn't get away with just being grateful for my wonderful husband. But I could, suggested Collie Conoley, another positive psychologist, express my gratitude for specific aspects of a certain person each day. He's a great cook. He always puts our family first.Life will never be perfect. I still see new stories that annoy me. The traffic in my city is maddening. I wish I could speed up my recovery. But with just one simple exercise, I'm rediscovering the peace of that old saying: accepting the things I can't change, working without complaint to change what I can, and being wise enough to know the difference.And all it took was a little gratitude.(1)What's the author's attitude toward the student with desserts?A. Cautious.B. Respectful.C. Indifferent.D. Supportive.(2)Why was the author doubtful about the instructions?A. Because she thought it wasn't worth the effort.B. Because she didn't like expressing thanks often.C. Because she needed to ask her friend to do it first.D. Because she could do five things every day easily.(3)What does Collie Conoley suggest the author should do?A. Be grateful to her wonderful husband.B. Be thankful for things but not people.C. Be a great cook and put her family first.D. Be specific about what she's thankful for.(4)What's the best title for the text?A. Don't Be Bothered by Small ThingsB. We Can Change Everything If We WantC. Practicing Gratitude Changed My LifeD. Being Grateful to One Good Person【答案】(1)A(2)A(3)D(4)C【解析】【分析】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文,在一个星期的时间里,作者坚持每天都能发现五件她特别感激的事情,而且每天都有所不同。

But Seattle writer Rosette Royale found it repellent. To Royale, the park seemed like a damp, dirty and unpleasant place. "I couldn't figure out why anyone would want to carry a 50-pound pack into the wilderness and camp there for days," he said. "It didn't make sense."Then he met Bryant Carlin, a vendor (小贩) for Real Change, the Seattle weekly sold on the street by vendors who are homeless or low-wage earners. He was also a skilled outdoorsman and a nature photographer who would take weeks-long photographic journeys to the park. The two men connected in the fall of 2011 when Royale interviewed Carlin for a feature story in Real Change about Carlin's photography.That first time they met—and for years afterward—Carlin invited Royale to go camping with him. Each time, Royale said "Thanks, but no thanks." Until one day, in the spring of 2015, Royale surprised himself by saying yes. "Little did I know," said Royale, "that saying 'yes' would change the course of my life."Royale and Carlin went on five separate journeys to the Olympic wilderness. They camped in spring, summer, fall and winter. For Royale, the trips were exhausting and terrifying. But the trips were also inspiring, and helped Royale—a black, strange man—to develop a relationship with the outdoors that he had never experienced before.For Carlin, the trips were an opportunity to throw off the label of "homeless". In Olympic National Park, sleeping outside just means you're a camper. But there was one aspect of Carlin's life in the city that he couldn't escape: alcohol abuse. While he never brought beer on their camping journeys, the effects of years of drinking weren't so easy to leave behind.(1)What does the underlined word "repellent" in paragraph 1 mean?A.Appealing.B.Puzzling.C.Rewarding.D.Disgusting.(2)According to Royale, what made his life course changed?A.His first meeting with Carlin.B.His rejection of Carlin's invitation.C.His camping trips with Carlin.D.His reading of Carlin's feature story.(3)What did the trips with Royale mean to Carlin?A.They improved his photography skills.B.They helped him feel a sense of belonging.C.They deepened his relationship with nature.D.They enabled him to get rid of alcohol addiction.【答案】(1)D(2)C(3)B【解析】【分析】文章主要讲了罗亚尔和卡林的奥林匹克国家公园露营之旅对各自产生的意义。

高中英语阅读理解(人生百味)技巧阅读训练策略及练习题(含答案)一、高中英语阅读理解人生百味类1.阅读理解When I was nine years old, I loved to go fishing with my dad. But the only thing that wasn't very fun about it was that he could catch many fish while I couldn't catch anything. I usually got pretty upset and kept asking him why. He always answered, "Son, if you want to catch a fish, you have to think like a fish." I remember being even more upset then because, "I'm not a fish!" I didn't know how to think like a fish. Besides, I reasoned, how could what I think influence what a fish does?As I got a little older I began to understand what my dad really meant. So, I read some books on fish. And I even joined the local fishing club and started attending the monthly meetings. I learned that a fish is a cold-blooded animal and therefore is very sensitive to water temperature. That is why fish prefer shallow water to deep water because the former is warmer. Besides, water is usually warmer in direct sunlight than in the shade. Yet, fish don't have any eyelids (眼皮) and the sun hurts their eyes. The more I understood fish, the more I became effective at finding and catching them.When I grew up and entered the business world, I remember hearing my first boss say, "We all need to think like sales people." But it didn't completely make sense. My dad never once said, "If you want to catch a fish you need to think like a fisherman." What he said was, "You need to think like a fish." Years later, with great efforts to promote long-term services to people much older and richer than me, I gradually learned what we all need is to think more like customers. It is not an easy job. I will show you how in the following chapters.(1)Why was the author upset in fishing trips when he was nine?A. He could not catch a fish.B. His father was not patient with him.C. His father did not teach him fishing.D. He could not influence a fish as his father did.(2)What did the author's father really mean by saying "to think like a fish"?A. To read about fish.B. To learn fishing by himself.C. To understand what fish think.D. To study more about fish.(3)According to the author, fish are most likely to be found .A. in deep water on sunny daysB. in deep water on cloudy daysC. in shallow water under sunlightD. in shallow water under waterside trees(4)After entering the business world, the author found .A. it easy to think like a customerB. his father's fishing advice inspiringC. his first boss's sales ideas reasonableD. it difficult to sell services to poor people(5)This passage most likely comes from .A. a fishing guideB. a book about salesC. a novel on childhoodD. a millionaire's story【答案】(1)A(2)D(3)D(4)B(5)B【解析】【分析】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文,作者小时候同父亲钓鱼,作者父亲的关于钓鱼的建议给了作者在钓鱼,尤其是后来的销售工作中的一些启示。

【英语】高中必备英语阅读理解(人生百味)技巧全解及练习题(含答案)及解析一、高中英语阅读理解人生百味类1.阅读理解When times get tough, we all look for ways to cut back. When we're hungry, we eat at home instead of going out. We take buses instead of taxis. And we wear our old designer jeans just a few months longer. With college expenses at all-time highs, high school students are eager to do anything to cut the cost of a university education.One cost-cutting proposal is to allow college students to get a bachelor's degree in three years instead of four. Educational institutions have been actively exploring ways to make the learning process more efficient. But there's a question: Would the quality of undergraduate education suffer? Few US universities have formally approved a "three-year degree" model.I doubt that mainstream North American colleges will carry out a three-year curriculum any time soon. For one thing, most universities already allow highly qualified students to graduate early by testing out of certain classes and obtaining a number of college credits. In addition, at famous universities, the committee who determine which courses are required and which courses are electives are unlikely to suddenly "throw out" one quarter of the required credits. Professors will resist "diluting (稀释)" the quality of the education they offer.In my opinion, a quality four-year education is always superior to a quality three-year education.A college education requires sufficient time for a student to become skilled in their major and do coursework in fields outside their major. It is not a good idea to water down education, any more than it's not a good idea to water down medicine. If we want to help students find their way through university, we should help them understand early on what knowledge and skills they need to have upon graduation. We should allow students to test out of as many courses as possible. We should give them a chance to earn money as interns (实习生) in meaningful part-time jobs that relate to their university studies, such as the five-year co-op program at Northeastern University.(1)Which of the following can best sum up the main idea?A.It's time to shorten the learning process.B.Best learning takes place over time.C.University education should be watered down.D.College education calls for reform.(2)We can learn from the passage that ________.A.most American universities are against the "three-year degree" modelB.many famous US universities are considering adopting the "three-year degree" modelC.professors are willing to accept the "three-year degree" modelD.The "three-year degree" model can make college learning more efficient(3)In most US universities, ________.A.college students are offered the co-op programB.electives' credits make up one quarter of the required creditsC.all students are required to finish four-year education before graduationD.some excellent students can graduate ahead of time(4)We can infer that________.A.the author is a college professor exploring ways to make learning more efficientB.the author thinks the cost of a university education is too high for people to affordC.the author considers the university education quality very importantD.the author pays special attention to the all-round development of college students【答案】(1)B(2)A(3)D(4)C【解析】【分析】本文是一篇议论文,作者认为把大学四年的学制缩短为三年不是一个好主意,保证足够的时间才能保证大学教育的质量。

最新高中英语阅读理解(人生百味)解题技巧分析及练习题(含答案)及解析一、高中英语阅读理解人生百味类1.阅读理解Anyone who is afraid of failure and afraid to face challenges will never taste success, so said our professor in marketing. I laughed it off at that time, but got frightened when it actually happened in my life.I landed in a small city in the Middle East to set up a firm, a world-class car rental firm. Having decided on the project, I earnestly settled in preparation. With a positive mind, I told myself nothing should stop me now, and was more than keen to make it a success.However, the least expected thing happened. Iraq invaded Kuwait. Tension ran high in the region. Eventually the war broke out, and many people fled the country, leaving my firm in deep trouble.As usual, "things become difficult, and every effort seems to bring disappointment, it can be tempting to lower your expectations or even water down your goals and ambitions." I was no exception. I thought of running away. I remembered the words of Thomas Edison, "Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to succeed when they gave up."I decided to hang on, telling myself, "I am not afraid of challenges and obstacles." I stayed on through months of uncertainty and insecurity. Finances ran low, and banks could not wait to get their dues. To add to all this, the banks even threatened to take all my vehicles. I felt I made a wrong decision to move there. I was now ready to face failure.I was living against all hopes, believing that something good would happen. After 2 months the war ended. My persistence paid off: people started flooding back and the car bookings picked up, five times over.Success comes to the one who dares, even after failure, to think positively and look forward confidently. After all, it is only the experience that makes a man tough. Failure does not mean you will never make it. It means that it will take a little longer. It provides us with a learning experience.(1)The main method the author uses to support his understanding of his professor's viewpoint is ________.A. offering analysesB. providing explanationsC. making comparisonsD. giving examples(2)How did the author feel when the war between Iraq and Kuwait broke out?A. UnconfidentB. IndifferentC. NervousD. Calm(3)What does the underlined phrase "water down" in the 4th paragraph probably mean?A. get rid ofB. smooth awayC. make less forcefulD. improve on(4)The author's purpose of writing the passage is most likely to ________.A. informB. persuadeC. describeD. entertain【答案】(1)D(2)A(3)C(4)B【解析】【分析】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文,作者的教授曾经说过,任何害怕失败和害怕面对挑战的人永远都不会尝到成功的滋味。

人教版英语阅读理解(人生百味)专题复习练习(含解析)经典一、九年级中考英语阅读理解(人生百味)(含答案详细解析)1.阅读理解The following are some tips for becoming a successful businessman by Michael Bloomberg. They are based on his experience of building a company from the ground up, leading New York City as mayor(市长), and so on.Take RisksLife is too short to spend your time avoiding failure.In 1981, at the age of 39, I lost my job. The next day I took a big risk and began my own company. In 2001, when I was debating whether to run for mayor, most people advised me not to do it. But one person said, “If you can imagine yourself giving a concession(败选)speech, then why not go for it?” That was the best advice I received, and I followed it.In order to succeed, you must first be willing to fail— and you must have the courage to go for it anyway.Make your own luckLuck plays a part in success. The harder you work, the luckier you get.Whatever you choose to do, even if it's not the job of your dreams, always work hard at it. Be the first person at work in the morning and the last to leave at night. Hard work creates chances. Never stop learningThe most powerful word in English language is “why”. There is nothing so powerful as an open, inquiring mind(探究精神). Whatever field you choose for starting a business — be a lifelong student.Give backYou are responsible for your success and failure, but you only succeed if you share the reward with others.My first donation was a $ 5 check to my alma mater (母校) .

2.阅读理解As a kid, I read a story of a bird. It described a male bird which takes a lot of pain to build a house and the female bird takes care of the baby in it. When the baby bird learns to fly, the whole family flies off to a different place leaving behind the beautiful nest for other birds to grow their family in it. It made me confused(困惑的):How could they so easily give up their house built with so much effort?One night, I got this dream. I was walking on the endless road with beautiful trees on the either side. Attracted by the greenery, I went on, then I saw a wonderful house. I explored the house. There was a sloping(斜的) roof which matched with the greenery around; the large central open yard reminded me of the activities that might have taken place there which felt lively even now. The small water body that kept the house cool added to the beauty of the house — of course, it was all dried up now. Such liveliness turns the house into a home. People say “THE HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS”, and now I felt it and was attracted deeply.When I woke up from the dream, I was clear about everything. I realized what message my dream wanted to convey(传递) me. And years later, when I chose my career, I thought ofthe story of the bird and my dream,then I was sure what to do. I decided to choose architecture as my career. I wanted to do the same thing that the male bird in the story did, to take pain in building a beautiful house and let others stay in it.
