文章结构之篇章结构题

A

The term “helicopter parents” refers to “a style of parents who are over focused on their children”．

Helicopter parents are always making a big push to provide children with every opportunity to succeed，from baby steps at age 1，homework at age 8，college application at age 18，employment issues at age 25 to family problems at age 30,40 or even older.They constantly shadow the child，always directing his behavior，allowing him zero alone time.

Helicopter parenting can develop for a number of reasons.Worries about the economy，the job market，and the world in general can push parents toward taking more control over their child’s life in an attempt to protect them.Adults who felt unloved or ignored as children can overcompensate their own children.When parents see other overinvolved parents，it can cause a similar response.They feel that if they don’t involve themselves in their children’s lives，they are bad parents.

The main problem with helicopter parenting is that it can backfire.To give an example，the house where Mary lived with roommates was broken into and things were stolen.Mary called the landlord(房东) to install an alarm system，but before she could finish the negotiations(协商)，her mother rushed in and demanded action.“I felt like my mother ruined my communication with our landlord.We could have gotten it done ourselves.She was well intended but only made me feel annoyed and defeated，” says Mary.

Obviously，overparenting is motivated with the idea of doing good things but it does the exact opposite.In t he long run parents are actually damaging their child’s basic skills to deal with matters independently.It makes the child feel lacking in confidence，less competent in dealing with the stresses of life on their own.They’re winning the battle，but actually losing the war.

1．What’s the purpose of helicopter parents’ overparenting?

A．To do something good for their children.

B．To make their children not ignored.

C．To help their children find a good job.

D．To get rid of the pressure from other parents.

答案 A

解析细节理解题。根据最后一段第一句“Obviously，overparenting is motivated with the idea of doing good things...”可知“直升机式父母”过分呵护孩子的目的是想做一些有益于孩子们的事情，故答案为A项。

2．What can we learn from the passage?

A．Children who have helicopter parents live a hard life.

B．Helicopter parenting only happens to very young children.

C．Helicopter parents can protect their children against all problems. D．Helicopter parents do their children great harm in the long run.

答案 D

解析推理判断题。根据最后一段可知，从长远看过分呵护孩子会毁掉孩子独立处理问题的基本技巧，使孩子缺乏自信心，在处理生活压力方面缺乏竞争力。由此可见从长远看，“直升机式父母”对孩子有很大危害，故答案为D项。

3．What will possibly be discussed in the paragraph that follows?

A．The bad effects of helicopter parenting.

B．How we can avoid being helicopter parents.

C．Different opinions about helicopter parenting.

D．The reasons for the development of helicopter parents.

答案 B

解析篇章结构题。文章第一、二段介绍了“直升机式父母”的定义及表现，第三段介绍了产生“直升机式父母”的原因，最后两段介绍了“直升机式父母”的危害。由此可知文章下文应该介绍如何避免成为“直升机式父母”，故答案为B项。

B

The U．S.Postal Service(USPS) is losing billions of dollars a year.The government company that delivers “small mail” is losing out to email and other types of electronic communication.First-class mail amount fell from a high point of 104 million pieces in 2000 to just 64 million pieces by 2014.

Congress permits the 600,000-em ployee USPS to hold a monopoly(垄断) over first-class and standard mail.The company pays no federal，state or local taxes；pays no vehicle fees；and is free from many regulations on other businesses.Despite these advantages，the USPS has lost 52 billion since 2007，and will continue losing money without major reforms.

The problem is that Congress is preventing the USPS from reducing costs as its

sales decline，and is blocking efforts to end Saturday service and close unneeded post office https://www.docsj.com/doc/7512160752.html,PS also has a costly union-dominated workforce that slows the introduction of new ideas or methods https://www.docsj.com/doc/7512160752.html,PS workers earn significantly higher payment than comparable private-sector workers.The answer is to privatize the USPS and open postal markets to competition.With the rise of the Internet，the argument that mail is a natural monopoly that needs government protection is weaker than ever.

Other countries facing declining letter amounts have made reforms.Germany and the Netherlands privatized their national postal companies over a decade ago，and other European countries have followed suit.Britain floated shares of the Royal Mail on its stock exchange in 2013.Some countries，such as Sweden and New Zealand，have not privatized their national postal companies，but they have opened them up to competition.

These reforms have driven efficiency improvements in all of these countries.Additional number of workers have been reduced，productivity has risen and consumers have benefited.Also，note that cost-cutting measures—such as closing tone post offices—are good for both the economy and the environment.

Privatization and competition also encourage new changes.When the USPS monopoly over “extremely urgent” mail was stopped in 1979，we saw an explosion in efficient overnight private delivery by firms such as FedEx.

The government needs to wake up to changing technology，study postal reforms abroad and let businessmen reinvent our out-of-date postal system.

语篇解读本文为议论文，主要论述了如何解决USPS在经营上遇到的问题。

4．What do we know about the USPS?

A．Its great competitor is the delivery firm FedEx.

B．It is an old public service open to competitions.

C．Its employees don’t pay federal，state or local taxes.

D．It has complete control of first-class and standard mail.

6．The author probably agrees that the USPS .

A．needs government’s protection as ever

B．can work together with other businesses

C．must be replaced by international companies

D．should be sold out and become a private service

答案 D

7．Which of the following shows the development of ideas in this passage?

I：Introduction CP：Central point P：Point

Fifty years ago，the well-loved musician Bob Dylan played at the Newport Folk

Festival and was widely booed(嘘声)．The audience may have been unhappy but Dylan’s performance helped change the direction of music and culture in the United States.

The mid-1960s were a time of great change.One such place of change was the world of folk music.Bob Dylan became a symbol of change when he moved from acoustic(原声的) to electric guitar.

Rock music historian Elijah Wald has written a new book about the change.It is called “Dylan Goes Electric.”

“There was a moment in the early 1960s when you could look at the Billboard charts and seven of the top 10 albums were folk records.And Joan Baez，Peter Paul and Mary，the Kingston Trio，all had huge，huge，huge number-one records.”

And then this happened：The “British Invasion” introduced the world to the Beatles and grew a huge fan base for rock music.That worried many folk musicians，says Elijah Wald.

They hoped that Bob Dylan would come to the rescue.However，a new Dylan sound came from the stage.

Bob Dylan had gone electric，and the followers of folk music were not pleased.

“When Dylan went electric，I think one of the issues was the feeling that—wait a minute，he’s gone over to the enemy.”

Folk lovers had looked to Bob Dylan to save their movement from rock and roll.But，author Wald says Dylan felt differently about the music.

“Dylan had always liked rock and roll and Dylan didn’t think of rock and roll as stupid music.”

In fact，Dylan was a Beatles fan.He later said that from the first time he heard the Beatles he knew “they were pointing to the direction where music had to go.”

Beyond the music，Dylan’s performance that night also marked a turn in American culture.

8．How did the audience feel when Dylan played at the Newport Folk Festival? A．Excited. B．Unsatisfied.

C．Respectful. D．Bored.

答案 B

解析细节理解题。根据第一段中的可知观众很不高兴，故选B项。

9．What did folk musicians and followers expect Dylan to do?

A．Change folk music for better.

B．Recover the glory of folk music.

C．Introduce the world to the Beatles.

D．Play rock and roll against the Beatles.

答案 B

解析细节理解题。根据第六段第一句“They hoped that Bob Dylan would come to the rescue.”可知，选B项。

10．What will the author most probably talk about next?

A．Dylan’s deep love for the Beatles’ rock and roll music.

B．Dylan’s beliefs in the new direction music should go.

C．Dylan’s music as a great contribution to American folk music.

D．Dylan’s performance as a mark of a change in Am erican culture.

答案 D

解析篇章结构题。根据最后一段“Beyond the music，Dylan’s performance that night also marked a turn in American culture.”可知，选D项。

Everyone worries about exams，but test anxiety is in another league，causing such fear that it is impossible to do your best.Does your mind go blank in exams？Do you become distracted？Do you score much lower on exams than on homework？Then you may have what psychologists call test anxiety.

Test anxiety involves severe stress before，during or after exams，making it impossible to do your best.It can make your heart feel as if it is racing，and you may submit to “negative self-talk”，convincing yourself you are going to fail or upset.These stressful thoughts，not surprising，can block your brain’s ability to find what is stored in its memory，as well as making it harder to understand the questions and organize your thoughts.Is it possible to stop test anxiety?

Developing good study habits，understanding the exam format and marking scheme(评分方案) can all help to reduce anxiety.But for a greater effect，other methods are also needed，such as relaxation techniques in which you lie down before the exam，close your eyes and focus on breathing while tensing and relaxing group muscles in turn (legs，arms and stomach)．

A study looked at anxious students in math exams and concluded that writing about how worried you feel before the exam may also reduce anxiety.

Be as prepared as possible before the exam，arrive early，and repeat positive statements such as：“Everyone feels anxious；I know I can do this.” Just as in a race，do not look at what everyone else around you is doing.Focus on the paper in front of you.Do a quick skim to evaluate the feel of the overall test.If you feel nervous，take deep breaths and remember that it is just a test.

语篇解读许多人受到考试焦虑的困扰。本文讲述了运用恰当的方法可以缓解考试焦虑，例如：养成良好的学习习惯、放松、考前把你的顾虑写出来、考前尽可能作好准备等。

解析段落大意题。根据文章第二段第一句“Test anxiety involves severe stress...making it impossible to do your best.”和后几句讲的危害“submit to ‘negative self-talk’，block your brain’s ability to...，making it harder to understand the questions and organize your thoughts”等可知，本段主要谈论考试焦虑带来的影响或危害。故选C项。

12．According to Paragraph 4，a study is mentioned to .

A．explain it is easy to get around test anxiety

B．introduce another good approach to handling test anxiety

C．confirm that math exams are more likely to cause anxiety

D．make a conclusion about how to overcome test anxiety

高考英语听力指导和常见表达

高考英语听力指导 1.听力的最佳状态是“无瑕疵听力”，即完全听清听懂每一句话，做对每一题。但是因为题目难度、 自身水平、做题时的专注度及解题心态策略等主客观原因，做不到无瑕疵听力也是正常。此时，理想的状态是听懂材料的语境大意，根据题干设问和选项特点抓住几个关键词，合理地整合信息与猜测，做对题目，以听力尽量不失分为目标。 2.解题步骤： （1）听力开始前认真审题（包括题干与选项），预判题目类型、话题和关注点，圈划关键词（如主语、宾语、时间/地点状语等）； （2）选项文字很长信息量大，选项之间差别大时，尤其勾出题号提醒自己小心，最好审两遍题，做足准备；选项中含有专有名词，尤其关注，若是自己不熟的词，心里默念，以免在听力中出现时，无法及时反应； （4）专心听，不一心两用，平时训练耐心和注意力长度；防止走神，用笔圈划题目关键词甚至听写材料关键词，所谓眼到手到心到；上一题没听清时，采取及时放弃原则，给下一题留出审题时间； （5）做完对答案，看听力原文，划出错题信息源，总结错误原因（单词发音不熟，没听懂大意，没听出言外之意，不了解固定表达含义等），出声读原文，或有条件再听两遍做到无瑕疵听力，若有老师帮助积累常见表达，总结高频考察词更佳。 3.听力题型分类： 根据【题干特点】可分为：（1）细节题（5W+1H，包括数字计算题），（2）推断题（probable, what will sb do, what does sb mean等），（3）主旨大意题(mainly talk about)等； 根据【选项特点】可分为：（1）直接信息题（正确选项会直接听到关键词，可能会做同义改写），（2）信息匹配题（三个选项都会直接听到，重在匹配问题与答案）（3）推理归纳题（三个选项都不会直接听到，基于理解大意和抓准关键词，进行推断或归纳）。 4.正确选项特点在于同义改写，干扰项的命题套路包括：无中生有，真假混合，张冠李戴，曲解词 义等，同阅读理解干扰项套路类似。 听力场景关键词与常见表达 高考考试的对话内容场景基本上都是考生所熟悉的，有校园、生活、工作、各种社交场所。了解一些场景下的常见表达，抓住关键词对解题很有帮助。对这些常用词汇和短语不仅要知道其本身的意思，还要知道它们的同义改写表达，这是因为现在听力试题一般不会在选项中出现对话中的原词和词组。 1.restaurant餐馆 2.cafeteria 自助餐厅 3.buffet 自助餐 4.canteen 5.dining hall 食堂，餐厅 6.cafe咖啡屋 7.snack bar 小吃街、大排挡 8.waiter/waitress 男/女服务 生 9.order 点菜 10.serve 上菜 11.menu 菜单 12.bill 账单13.tip 小费 14.change 零钱 15.treat 请客 16.knife刀 17.fork叉； 18.chopsticks筷子 19.spoon勺子 20.plate碟子 21.tray 托盘 22.appetizer 开胃菜 23.dessert甜品 24.soup 汤 25.main course主菜 26.steak 牛排 27.cheese奶酪 28.sandwich 三明治 29.hamburger 汉堡包 30.French fries 炸薯条 31.spaghetti 意大利面 32.pasta 通心粉 33.pizza 披萨 34.bacon 培根 35.chicken鸡肉 36.beef牛肉 37.pork猪肉 38.drink饮料 39.dressing 调味酱 40.pepper胡椒 41.ketchup 番茄酱 42.delicious/yummy/tasty 可

高考英语阅读理解训练50篇

阅读理解训练50篇（1） 1 Doctors say anger can be an extremely damaging emotion, unless you learn how to deal with it. They warn that anger can lead to heart disease, stomach problems, headaches, emotional problems and possibly cancer. Anger is a normal emotion that we all feel from time to time. Some people express anger openly in a calm reasonable way. Others burst with anger, and scream and yell.But other people keep their anger inside. They can not or will not express it. This is called repressing anger. For years many doctors thought that repressing anger was more dangerous to a person's health than expressing it. They said that when a person is angry, the brain releases the same hor- mones (荷尔蒙).They speed the heart rate, raise blood pressure, or sugar into the blood, etC．In general the person feels excited and ready to act. Some doctors say that both repressing and expressing anger can be dangerous. They believe that those who express anger violently may be more likely to develop heart disease, and they believe that those who keep their anger inside may face a greater danger of high blood pressure. Doctors say the solution is learning how to deal with anger. They say the first step is to admit that you are angry and to recognize the real cause of the anger, then decide if the cause is serious enough to get angry about. If it is, they say, “Do not express your anger while angry. Wait until your anger has cooled down and you are able to express yourself calmly and reasonably.” Doctors say that a good way to deal with anger is to find humor in the situation that has made you angry. They said that laughter is much healthier than anger. 1．“Damaging emotion” means t hat _________.

高考英语阅读理解专项训练100篇(附答案)

高考英语阅读理解专项训练100篇 (名师传授解题技巧+实战练习，值得下载) 一、阅读理解解题技巧 阅读理解题是考查学生对活的语言材料的理解能力，即通过阅读材料获得信息的能力。具体说来，阅读理解能力测试的主要要求是：（1）掌握所读材料的主旨大意，以及用以说明主旨大意的事实和细节；（2）既理解具体事实，也理解抽象的概念；（3）既理解字面意思，也理解深层含义，包括作者的态度、意图等；（4）既理解某句、某段的意义，也理解全篇的逻辑关系，并能根据文章进行推理和判断；（5）既能根据材料所提供的信息去理解，也能结合中学生应有的常识去理解。根据这几项能力测试的要求，试题中常采用如下几种题型：事实询问题、推理判断题、数据推算题、识图解意题和主旨大意题。根据这一测试要求和题型设计，答题时可以采取如下解题技巧和对策。 1．首先解题时要充满自信。由于平时有些同学对做阅读理解时存在一种畏惧心理，因此考试做题时心理就难免会产生紧张感，特别是阅读时再遇到几个生词就头脑发胀，从而使自己的思路更加模糊不清。其实这是完全没有必要的，因为阅读中遇到几个生词或几个难以理解的句子是常有的事，也是正常现象。因为按大纲要求，试卷中允许有不超过3%的生词，只要认真分析，仔细阅读，这些生词和句子很可能并不影响你的解题。所以答题之前首先要有必胜的信心。 2．扫读全文，理解全文主旨大意。拿到一篇文章，首先要快速扫读全文，虽为扫读，但不可漫不经心，阅读时也应聚精会神，力求可能多地获取材料信息，只是这次遇到生词和难句先不必去处理，不要因纠缠文中的个别生词和难句而影响了对全文的主旨大意的了解。

3．对症下药，各个击破。了解全文的大概意思之后，再把短文的问题简单看一遍，弄懂题意，然后带着问题再去寻读全文。这次阅读过程中要善于抓文章中的关键词句。寻读也就是迅速的查找需要了解的信息，是为某些特定的问题而阅读，因此阅读时要有较强的针对性，对与问题有关的数据，词句等仔细阅读，认真理解，同时结合不同考查内容的题型，采取如下解题对策： （1）事实询问题：这类试题通常是以疑问词what，who，when，where，why，how 等引起的特殊问句，就文章中某一词语、某一句子、某一段落或某一具体细节和事实进行提问。解答此类试题首先要弄清题目和每一个选项的含义，然后按题目要求寻找与之相关的细节，正确估计答案来源，同时注意题目和文章中的暗示作用。特别注意辨别各种信息，确认各种信息。 （2）推理判断题：此题要求我们通过表面文字信息去推测文章隐含的意思，对文章的发展情节及作者的态度、意图等做出合乎逻辑的的推理判断。这种题要求我们在阅读时要抓住文章的主题和细节、从分析文章的结构入手，根据上下文的内在联系，充分挖掘文章的深层含义。对暗含在文章中事件的因果关系，人物的动机，以及作者未言明的倾向、态度、意图、观点进行合乎逻辑的推理、分析和判断。同时善于抓住文中实质性的东西，不要被带假象的表面信息或似是而非的东西所迷惑。并且注意推断作者态度时要力求从作者的态度、观点去思考，切勿想当然，凭个人的观点习惯看法来回答的问题。 （3）数据推算题：此题要求我们就文章提供的数据，以及数据与文章中其他信息的关系做出计算和推断，然后做出选择。这就要求我们解题时，要在理解好题意的前提下去对与数据有关的信息认真分析，若数据信息较多，还要注意弄清数据之间的关系，同时分清有用与无用信息，最终作出正确判断。 （4）主旨大意题：此题用以考查我们对文章主题或中心思想的领会和理解能力。在解答此类试题时要注意每段的中心句，抓住每一段的主题句。一般主题句都用来表达一段主旨大意，因此，只要找准每段的主题句，文章的中心思想和文章的最佳标题也就不难确定了。

高考英语阅读理解专项训练及答案及解析

高考英语阅读理解专项训练及答案及解析 一、高中英语阅读理解 1．阅读理解 Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is gaining global popularity. According to a government white paper, TCM has been introduced in 183 countries and regions around the world. Westerners' understanding of TCM, however, may be limited to acupuncture, cupping and massage(针灸，拔罐和按摩). For instance, the purple, injury-like marks left on U. S. swimmer Michael Phelps，back from cupping for the purpose of relaxing his muscles and reducing pain became the center of attention during the Rio Olympics in 2016. As a matter of fact, Chinese herbs play a more important role in getting rid of diseases and keeping the body in good condition in the TCM treatment system than physical treatment. It is therefore disheartening to know that while 103 World Health Organization member countries have given approval to the practice of acupuncture, not many recognize Chinese herbal medicine. TCM falls far behind Western medicine owing partly to the slow development of Chinese herbs. Herbs are made into pills, powder and soup, and the kind of herbs used, their quality and quantity, and the processing of the ingredients (原材料) jointly determine the effectiveness of the prescription. Compared with Western medicine, which has standardized drug production processes and treatment methods, TCM lacks standardization, with the chemical composition and functions of its medicines being unclear and their effects being unstable. Fortunately, standardization has improved in recent decades, with an increasing number of factories producing patented TCM drugs. Another factor that has prevented the development of TCM prescription drugs is the lack of creativity. While Western medicine-making companies come up with new products every year, TCM drug producers tend to make medicines according to prescriptions handed down from the past. Chinese chemist Tu Youyou's winning the 2015 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for her research into malaria (疟疾) treatment may drive creativity to some extent in China's TCM industry. However, the current state of affairs cannot be changed within a short time. （1）Why does the author mention the example of Michael Phelps? A. Because he was injured in his swimming. B. Because cupping is a kind of important TCM treatment. C. Because westerners know a little about TCM. D. Because westerners attach great importance to TCM. （2）Why don't some member countries of WHO recognize Chinese herbal medicine? A. Because Chinese herbs can get rid of diseases. B. Because they only approve the practice of acupuncture. C. Because Western medicine is more effective. D. Because medicine made out of Chinese herbs develops slowly. （3）Compared with Western medicine, what is the weak point of TCM in Paragraph 4? A. The methods of planting herbs. B. The effectiveness of prescription. C. Lacking in standardization. D. Its stable functions.

高三英语阅读理解(带详解)

I watched from a distance as the homeless man quarreled with those who did not leave money for him – the majority. I walked up to him and right on queue he asked me for a quarter. ―I’ll give you a quarter if you tell me your story.‖ He laughed, ―You’ll give me a quarter for my story?‖ I lay the quarter in front of him and corrected myself –―Nah, here’s the quarter but it would be nice to hear your story.‖ I followed his eyes to the quarter and for a brief moment I saw a glimmer of reflection. I sat down next to him and waited. ―I was in the army,‖ he said. ―I was a sniper(狙击手)and was supposed to shoot down the enemy from the distance.‖ I listened carefully to his grizzly voice as he went deeper into the story. He wore dirty old torn clothes and smelled like a dead rat left in a mouse trap. He told me how he used to hunt with his family and was really good at it. He had his own way of respecting animals by not wasting what he killed for food and not killing more than he needed. When the army came knocking on his door, he felt pride and joined up. All those years of polishing his hunting skills could now serve a larger purpose—to defend us from the bad guys. He set out to fight in Iraq. It wasn’t long before he realized his ideals and expectations were just a shadow of the truth. He became disillusioned with the killings, which he felt were of innocent people. ―I was a sniper but I never really killed anyone,‖ he said. ―One day I had to do it. They asked me to shoot this lady from the distance. I saw kids near that lady and my hands were on the trigger (扳机). Man, I was tearing up ... I couldn’t do it. She wasn’t doing anything to anyone and she was with the kids—I couldn’t see through my tears. It just didn’t make any sense to me.‖ The story goes on as he describes eventually being put into prison for 180 days for refusing to follow orders. He told me how he was black listed so that he couldn’t get a job. All the rights we take for granted were taken away from him. Why? Here was a man who was being punished—and for what? For refusing to kill the lady? For being a hero? ―I have no regrets,‖ the homeless man said. ―I may be homeless now, but I never killed that lady. I never killed anyone in the army. It didn’t feel right. I didn’t go there to do that. I went there to save people.‖ He continued, ―I can live with being homeless—that’s okay. But I wouldn’t be able to live with killing innocent people.‖ On that lonely Friday night, I met a hero. It just never occurred to me that a hero could be a smelly old man left on streets. 1. It can be learned from the passage that the homeless man_______. （） A. never killed animals B. had a strong respect for life C. deserved the punishment he received D. felt guilty about disobeying the order

(英语)高三英语阅读理解专项训练及答案

（英语）高三英语阅读理解专项训练及答案 一、高中英语阅读理解 1．阅读理解 The setting was a packed gymnasium just before the start of a game against another school. There were five girls who were members of the Danville High School basketball team—all of them starters. They were not in uniform to play that night and would not be on the team for the rest of this season. They were there to admit their breaking of team rules. They were there to support their coach's decision to take them off the team. They were there to let the town know there was a problem in their little community that needed to be addressed. And they did it with sincere regret rather than defensiveness. While the school had been out for the New Year's holiday, the five girls had gone to the party with several of their friends. There was alcohol there. And they all drank some. Coach Rainville has a zero tolerance rule on drugs and alcohol for her members though it was a hard decision to make. When classes resumed and accounts of holiday parties were shared, rumors about the five girls began closing in on them. The coach said she couldn't back down on her rules. And the players—two junior students and three senior students—agreed. That night in the gym was part of their public support of the coach's decision. “We hope you will understand that we are not bad kids. What we did was definitely not worth it. We hope this event will make everyone realize that there is a big drug and alcohol problem in our community,” one of the senior students said, “And if you work with us to try to solve this problem, you will help us feel that we have not been thrown off our basketball team for nothing.” The five left the floor to deafening applause. The team may not win another game this year. But they've learnt something about personal responsibility, the effect of one's action on others, and honesty that will serve them well throughout life. （1）It can be inferred from the passage that the five girls who were kicked off the team were ________. A. very good players on the team B. addicted to alcohol and drugs C. three junior students and two senior students D. scolded by their parents for drinking alcohol （2）What did the girls do to support their coach's decision? A. They didn't fight for Danville High School any more. B. They all gave speeches to apologize in the local press. C. They admitted their mistake in public in the gymnasium. D. They would never drink any alcohol throughout their life. （3）Which word best describes the coach Rainville? A. Indifferent. B. Strict. C. Stubborn. D. Cruel. （4）Which would be the best title for the passage? A. Growing up with pain B. A bad mistake C. Team rules are everything D. Basketball girls in high school 【答案】（1）A

高考英语阅读理解练习题及答案及解析

高考英语阅读理解练习题及答案及解析 一、高中英语阅读理解 1．阅读理解 I was born on the 17th of November 1828, in the village of Nam Ping, which is about four miles southwest of the Portuguese Colony (殖民地) of Macao, and is located on Pedro Island lying west of Macao, from which it is separated by a channel of half a mile wide. As early as 1834, an English lady, Mrs. Gutzlaff, wife of a missionary to China, came to Macao. Supported by the Ladies' Association in London for the promotion of female education in India and the East, she immediately took up the work of starting a girls' school for Chinese girls, which was soon followed by the opening of a boys' school. Mrs. Gutzlaff's comprador(买办) happened to come from my village and was actually my father's friend and neighbor. It was through him that my parents heard about Mrs. Gutzlaff's school and it was doubtlessly through his influence and means that my father got me admitted into the school. It has always been a mystery to me why my parents should put me into a foreign school, instead of a traditional Confucian school, where my big brother was placed. Most certainly such a step would have been more suitable for Chinese public opinion, taste, and the wants of the country, than to allow me to attend an English school. Moreover, a Chinese belief is the only avenue in China that leads to political promotion, influence, power and wealth. I can only guess that as foreign communication with China was just beginning to grow, my parents hoped that it might be worthwhile to put one of their sons to learning English. In this way he might become an interpreter and have a more advantageous position to enter the business and diplomatic world. I am wondering if that influenced my parents to put me into Mrs. Gutzlaff's School. As to what other sequences it has eventually brought about in my later life, they were entirely left in the hands of God. （1）How was the author admitted to Mrs. Gutzlaff's school? A. Through his father's friend's help. B. Through his own efforts to exams. C. Through his father's request. D. Through Mrs. Gutzlaff's influence. （2）Why did the author's parents put him into an English school？ A. An English school was more influential. B. Foreign trade with China was developing fast. C. It met with Chinese public opinion. D. He could become a successful interpreter. （3）What did the author think of his parents' decision to put him into an English school? A. It was skeptical. B. It was mysterious. C. It was thoughtful. D. It was wonderful.【答案】（1）A （2）D （3）B 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，小时候父亲送作者去英语学校而不是中文学校，并分析了具体原因。 （1）考查细节理解。根据第三段中的“Mrs. Gutzlaff's comprador(买办) happened to come from my village and was actually my father's friend and neighbor.
