【2017高考阅读理解训练题】

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项。

A

I once met a well-known botanist at a dinner party. I had never talked with a botanist before, and I found him fascinating. I sat there absorbed and listened while he spoke of unusual plants and his experiments (he even told me astonishing facts about the simple potato). I had a small indoor garden of my own ---and he was good enough to tell me how to solve some of my problems.

As I said, we were at a dinner party. There must have been a dozen other guests, but I broke an important rule of politeness. I ignored everyone else and talked for hours to the botanist.

Midnight came, I said good night to everyone and departed. The botanist then turned to our host and said many nice things about me, including that I was a “most interesting conversationalist.”

An interesting conversationalist? I had said hardly anything at all. I couldn’t have said anything if I had wanted to without changing the subject, for I didn’t know any more about plants than I knew about sharks. But I had done this one thing: I had listened carefully. I listened because I was really interested. And he felt it. Naturally that pleased him. That kind of listening is one of the the best ways to show respect to others, and it makes them feel great too. “Few human beings ,” wrote Jack Woodford in Strangers in Love,“can resist the sweet effect of rapt attention.” I went even further than that.I was “sincere in my admiration and generous in my praise.”

I told him that I had been hugely entertained and instructed. I had. I told him I wished I had his knowledge.I told him that I should love to wander the fields with him. What’s more, it was all true.

And so I had him thinking of me as a good conversationalist when, in reality, I had been merely a good listener and had encouraged him to talk.

26. From Paragraph 1, we can learn that the writer________.

A. was deeply moved by the botanist’s talk

B. was amazed by what he was hearing

C. was not in a comfortable situation

D. behaved politely and properly

27. Which of the following does the writer describe as a rule of politeness at dinner parties?

A. Avoiding discussions about politics and religion.

B. Listening carefully to what another guest says.

C. Arriving and leaving at the appropriate time.

D. Giving attention to all those in attendance.

28. The underlined expression “rapt attention” in Paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to_______.

A. full understanding

B. strong interest

C. great uncertainty

D. little curiosity

29. According to the writer, which of the following is an important characteristic of

a good conversationalist?

A. Listening attentively and encouraging the other side to continue.

B. Encouraging he other side by sharing his/her own opinions.

C. Promising a future meeting for more communication.

D. Expressing respect by nodding his/her head.

30. What is the purpose of the passage?

A. To prove the writer is an interesting conversationalist.

B. To share an interesting experience at a dinner party.

C. To explain what makes a good conversationalist.

D. To show that botanists can be really talkative.

It's Graduation Day—a day that's getting quite familiar to Marc and Beverly Ostrofsky of Houston.Today, they'll attend two graduation ceremonies, one for

their daughter Shelly, 22, from Washington University in St.Louis and another for their daughter, Mary Grace, 18, from Kincaid High School.Mary Grace will head to Boston University.Kelly, 22, graduated last Sunday from Duke University.Tracy, 20, is a sophomore (二年级学生) at the University of Denver.The oldest, Maddy,

23, graduated from Berklee College of Music last year.

So what's the cost of putting five daughters through college？Beverly told ABC News $60，000 to $70，000 a year.In total, the family will spend about $1.5 million

on college after taxes and that's not including graduate school.One daughter informed Marc that she now wants to seek her PhD.Marc is the bestselling author of Get Rich Click, and a multi millionaire from Internet businesses.“We're fortunate that we can take care of it，” Beverly said.“We decided a long t ime ago we didn't want the girls to take out college loans, so that was our commitment to them.”

Marc and Beverly married five years ago, blending (融合) their own daughters

into one big family of collegeready girls.Beverly said they wanted their daughters to have a choice of where they wanted to go to college, but having their children spread throughout the US created another expense—flying all of them home for holidays and visits.Just this week, Marc flew to North Carolina for Kelly's graduation, then to St.Louis for Shelly's graduation and hopes to make it back just in time to Houston for Mary Grace' s graduation tonight.

With the last child leaving home for college, Marc says he and Beverly are

going to take abreather．“It's like wiping the sweat off the forehead now.It's time to think about what we can do.Perhaps we'll take a vacation abroad，” he said.

The Ostrofsky family said their advice to parents who have many children is to start planning and saving from the day the children are born.

1．Graduation Day is familiar to Marc and Beverly Ostrofsky because________．A．they like going to school on Graduation Day

B．they need to attend their daughters' graduation ceremony several times C．they have experienced it on their own Graduation Day

D．they are often invited to school to have a speech on Graduation Day

2．What do we know about Mr and Mrs Ostrofsky from Paragraph 2? A．They would rather their daughters had applied for college loans.

B．They now work hard in order to pay for the college expenses.

C．They don't want their daughters to go to graduate school.

D．They can afford their daughters' college expenses.

3．What does Paragraph 3 mainly tell us?

A．Mr and Mrs Ostrofsky like visiting their daughters by plane.

B．Mr and Mrs Ostrofsky' s daughters often come back home for holidays. C．Mr and Mrs Ostrofsky spend a lot of money on their daughters' traveling. D．Mr and Mrs Ostrofsky are tired because their five daughters are in different colleges.

4．The underlined word “breather” in Paragraph 4 probably means__．A．check B．break C．adventure D．attempt

参考答案1-4 BDCB

C

lt's a dog's life for the nation's mutts - who are becoming anxious and aggressive through lack of play，experts fear．

A study of 4，000 dog owners has found a clear link between limited playtime and behaviour problems，such as being nervous when left alone，disobedience and snapping at other animals．And while researchers can't be sure that playing less is directly to blame，they say that games provide vital intellectual stimulation and exercise．The Bristol University study showed that only one in five owners play with their dogs six times a day．Half play two or three times a day and 10 per cent have just one play session．

Mark Evans，former chief vet for the RSPCA，said that dogs are one of the few animals to play into adulthood．He told the Sunday Times：'There is a clear association in the results．Owners report more potential behaviour problems in dogs that play less．'

Emily Blackwell -- who conducted the research uncovered tonight on Channel 4's Dogs：Their Secret Lives - said dogs often enjoy playing so much that they slow down or change strategy to make the fun last longer．The lecturer in canine （犬科动物）welfare hopes that 10，000 people will eventually fill out the survey．This will enable her to firmly establish whether lack of play is affecting dogs' moods - or if their emotional problems put their owners off spending time with them．For instance，they may slow down when playing 'chase'，allowing their owner to catch up with them and the game to continue．Favourite games include wrestling，chase and tugging at toys，and perhaps unsurprisingly，'fetch' topped the list．Tennis balls were the favourite toys，followed by soft，squeaky toys，rubber balls and rope toys．

The research comes just days after an animal charity warned that millions of dogs are becoming fat．aggressive and destructive because their owners are clueless about basic animal care．The PDSA said that treats including beer，chips and leftover takeaways are making dogs fat and unwell – and wamed that almost a million are never taken for a walk．

【小题1】If the dogs are not looked after carefully，．

A．they may become rebelling and damaging

B．they may get hurt and run away from home

C．they may become less active and dislike playing with the owners

D．they are more likely to fight with other animals

【小题2】What is Emily Blackwell's opinion on dogs' behavior？

A．If the owners spend less time with their dogs，they may become aggressive．B．Dogs know how to make their playing time last longer．

C．Only a few owners spend enough time playing with their dogs．

D．Some junk food or leftover may cause obesity on dogs．

【小题3】The underlined word "this" in the fourth paragraph probably refers

to ．

A．canine welfare

B．Channel 4's Dogs：Their Secret Lives

C．the survey

D．favourite games

【小题4】What can we learn from the passage？

A．Researchers confirm that playing less is to blame for dogs' bad behaviours．

B．Most of the owners will play with their dogs many times in a day．

C．Chase and tennis balls are the favourites of dogs．

D．It's obvious that dogs' behaviour problems are related with their playing time．

D

The Sieferts are the kind of environmentally conscious family who has solar panels atop their home. They use timers on their kids' showers and have planted drought-tolerant landscaping. But they feel kind of guilt. “I haven’t thought about the pool as much as I probably should,” said Annette Siefert.

As California's drought worsens, swimming pools have become a target for those who think the classic backyard greens waste water. Some water districts have banned new pools from being filled and have limited how much water existing pools can use.

But some of those agencies are walking back the rules as they make a surprising discovery: Pools aren't the water wasters some have made them out to be. Analyses by various water districts, along with scientific studies, conclude that pools and their surrounding landscapes use about the same amount of water as a lawn(草坪) of the same size. Over time, pools might even use less water. With

pool covers, experts say water evaporation(蒸发)can be cut by almost half,

making pools significantly less wasteful than grass and about as efficient as drought-tolerant landscaping.

Facing complaints over a recent ban on filling pools, the Santa Margarita Water District conducted its own water-use analysis. It found that pools require thousands of gallons of water to fill initially, but they use about 8,000 gallons less

water than a traditional landscape after that. By the third year, the analysis found, the savings add up, and a pool's cumulative water use falls below that of a lawn. Water agencies such as the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power have come to similar conclusions. Armed with new information, Santa Margarita Water District officials will reconsider their ban next week.

“We want to respect the people's rights to use their property. There are many families we know that have saved for pools,” said Jonathan Volzke, spokesman for the 155,000-customer district. “But at the same time, the reality around us is that we're in the third year of a serious drought, and we don't know if we're in the third year of a three-year drought or the third year of a 10-year drought.”

【小题1】Annette Siefert feels guilty mainly because of ______.

A．being a typical water waster

B．the water-use of their swimming pool

C．her control over her kids' showers at home

D．the construction of the drought-tolerant landscaping

【小题2】According to analyses and scientific studies, a swimming pool ______. A．had belter be filled up in the beginning

B．becomes more efficient against drought

C．isn't what people think to be wasteful of water

D．consumes more water than a lawn of the same size

【小题3】What does Jonathan Volzke try to express in the last paragraph? A．He expects the serious drought to come to an end.

B．He thinks highly of those who have saved for pools.

C．He appeals for reasonable use of the swimming pools.

D．He tries to maintain the right to use the swimming pools.

【小题4】What would be the best title for the passage? A．Water Crisis In California

B．Strict Ban On Filling Pools

C．The Sieferts—Real Environmentalists?

D．Pools—A Big Factor During Drought?

话题七:生态环保类 (一 The need to feed a growing population is putting much pressure on the world's supply of water. With 97% of the world's water too salty to be drunk or used in agriculture, the worldwide supply of water needs careful management, especially in agriculture. Although the idea of a water shortage(短缺 seems strange to someone fortunate enough to live in a high rainfall country, many of the world's agricultural industries experience constant water shortages. Although dams can be built to store water for agricultural use in dry areas and dry seasons, the costs of water redistribution(重新分配 are very high. Not only is there the cost of the engineering itself, but there is also an environmental cost to be considered. Where valleys(山谷 are flooded to create dams, houses are lost and wildlife homes destroyed. Besides, water may flow easily through pipes to fields, but it cannot be transported from one side of the world to the other. Each country must therefore rely on the management of its own water to supply its farming requirements. This is particularly troubling for countries with agricultural industries in areas dependent on irrigation (灌溉 . In Texas, farmers' overuse of irrigation water has resulted in a 25% reduction of the water stores. In the Central Valley area of southwestern USA, a huge water engineering project provided water for farming in dry valleys, but much of the water use has been poorly managed. Saudi Arabia's attempts to grow wheat in desert areas have seen the pumping of huge quantities of irrigation water from underground reserves. Because there is no rainfall in these areas, such reserves can only decrease, and it is believed that fifty years of pumping will see them run dry. 1. From the first two paragraphs we learn that________.

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项中,选出最佳选项。 A To American visitors, Iceland is a very interesting country, partly because it is different in so many ways from what he or she is used to seeing at home. There are quite a few things that are not done, or that do not exist on the island —quite a few "No's". There is no pollution, for instance. No dogs are permitted in Reykjavik, the capital. There is no television on Thursdays or during the entire month of July, and only three hours of black-and-white TV the rest of the time. There is no hard liquor on Wednesdays and no beer at any time. There are no handguns; only one jail of thirty-five cells in the entire land —an admirable figure, even for a small country of 313,376 people. There is no army, air force or navy. There is no tipping for anything. There are no large stores open on Saturdays or Sundays. Since Iceland is situated just under the Arctic Circle, there is no darkness in summer and no daylight in winter. But thanks to Gulf Stream, the climate is rather mild, with temperatures ranging from 34 degrees Fahrenheit to 52 degrees in July. The rules on television, liquor, and guns are the result of governmental decision. But the absence of pollution is due in great part to the fact that Iceland gets its power from the enormous geyser(间歇泉and the thousands of hot springs that come out of the ground. They provide all the energy needed by the country. In fact, Iceland uses only 3 percent of all its available power. Iceland has been described as a democratic independent country where more fish are caught and more books published per person than anywhere else in the world. The Icelanders have always felt a particular love for literature. They composed their first works in the ninth and tenth centuries AD. These works were poems and tales about the kings, heroes, and heroines of Iceland and Norway. At first the stories were memorized

With today’s college application fees averaging around $ 80, you can expect to spend hundreds of dollars on college before you are even accepted into a school. One of the easiest ways to save money on college application fees before you begin applying is to narrow down your list of schools. To save money, try to limit the schools to which you apply to about 2- reach schools and 2- safety schools. At some schools, being a relative of a graduate can secure you a free application. If you are applying to a school where one of your parents or grandparents is a former graduate, check to see if you’re qualified for it. Research the preferred method of applying for each school on your list. Some schools offer free online applications, yet charge a fee for paper submissions. This is because online applications save schools the cost of employing a staff member to physically enter the application information. Several states, such as Michigan and North Carolina, take part in College Application Week, where many schools in the participating states cancel their application fee for the week. Be sure to contact the schools to I j which you are applying to see if they participate in College Application Week and when the program takes place in that state. Apply for early admission. If you have already decided on which college is your top choice, consider applying under an Early Action or Early Decision admission program. If you are accepted, you won’t have to submit application fees to other schools. For more information regarding college applications and the fees associated with them, contact your high I school advisor or the admissions department at your school(s) of interest. 21.The passage is mainly written to______. A.introduce famous universities in the United Stales B.show some practical ways to apply an ideal college C.advertise for successful applications and advisors D.offer tips to save money on college application fees

高考英语阅读 文体类型及阅读理解答题技巧 一、英语阅读文体类型简析 高考英语阅读常见的文体类型有：记叙文、议论文、说明文和应用文。 1、记叙文 英语记叙文以描写叙述为主，主要描写人物、事件、地点、或过程。特点是，其主题往往潜伏在字里行间，没有直接地表白出来；文章主旨要透过体察所揭示的人物、事件来进行提炼。描写手法大多按时间跨度、空间顺序、上下顺序来展开。阅读记叙文体应采取略读和扫读的方法，快速抓住文中描写的主要内容，从整体上去把握文章的连贯性，进而大体上揣测出作者的写作意图及情感主线。高考阅读就记叙文设题大多以细节理解为主。 2、议论文 英语议论文通常为三段式，即“论点、论据、结论”三部份组成。首先借助某一现象引出论点，然后通过一定论据从各个层面上加以推理论证，最后得出结论。议论文体主要考查学生对论点及论据的把握。因此，遇到议论文体时，应采取抓主题句的方法来把握文章主旨，弄清作者的观点。一般来说，作者的论点通常在文章首段被引出，接着是对这一论点的逻辑推理和论证，最后为结论。还应注意的是：在对论点论证的过程中，每一段的首句都是该段的主题句。把握全文论点、弄清论证各段的主题句、理解文章层次、找出中心论点的位置是理解议论文的关键。 就议论文而言，其论证的常见结构方式有： 1，总分式总---分；分----总；总----分---总； 2，并列式几个论据之间属于平等关系； 3，递进式几个论据之间属于递进关系； 4，对照式把两种事物加以对比，以彰显其中一种。 3、说明文 英语说明文的总体结构通常为三部份，说明对象、说明过程和归纳总结。常见的说明方法： 1，定义与诠释说明； 2，举例与引用说明； 3，分类与图表说明； 4，比较与比喻说明； 5，分析与综合说明； 就高考英语说明文的阅读而言，首先要抓住文章说明的要点，也就是要抓住被说明对象的实质性特征；弄清作者从哪个角度、哪个层面开始说明；并明白文章最后的说明结论。高考说明文阅读材料通常介绍最新科技、重大成就、生活时尚、流行现象等。了解说明文的写作手法、说明方法，理清短文结构及段落中心思想是答题关键。 4、应用文

2017届全国高考英语阅读理解汇编(1)英语试卷

2017届全国高考英语阅读理解汇编（1）英语试卷SYS201708100601 一、阅读理解 详细信息 1. 难度：中等 阅读理解。 Many of us still tend to think that emotions can affect reasonable thought，and sometimes land us in trouble. But in recent years psychologists have taken quite a different view. Keith Oatley，Professor of Psychology at Glasgow University，is involved in the research which shows the fundamental importance of emotions. He believes we are very ambivalent about them：we think of our emotions as being unreasonable，but we also consider them as essential to being human.For example，Mr Spock，a character in the television series Star Trek，is superintelligent and he has no emotions at all.However，he is never made captain of the spaceship.Maybe，this is because Mr Spock is not the kind of person you can share your feelings with—a person who shows his emotions. As Professor Oatley points out，our emotions have very important functions，for example，fear.If we cross the road and a car approaches，we usually stop moving or step back.We stop what we are doing，check what we have done and pay very careful attention to the environment.The emotion of fear makes us take this small series of actions which，on average，help preserve our safety. On the other hand，if things are going well and small problems come up，we find we can solve them with the resources we have to hand.As a consequence，we tend to feel happy and usually continue doing the job. Anger is an emotion that tends to occur when someone is preventing us from doing something.Then this small “kit” of reactions enables us to prepare ourselves to be quite aggressive to that person，or to try harder，and so on. Professor Oatley believes emotions generally occur at these important moments in actions.With fear and anger our emotions make us decide to start doing something else，while with happiness they “suggest” we continue what we are already doing. 1.What’s Keith Oatley’s opinion about emotions? A．They affect reasonable thought. B．They get us into trouble. C．They are helpful to us. D．They are reasonable. 2.What does the underlined part “we are very ambivalent about them”in Paragraph 2 mean? A．We have contradictory feelings towards emotions. B．We have similar ideas of emotions.

2017年高考英语生态环保类阅读理解.

话题七:生态环保类 (一 The need to feed a growing population is putting much pressure on the world's supply of water. With 97% of the world's water too salty to be drunk or used in agriculture, the worldwide supply of water needs careful management, especially in agriculture. Although the idea of a water shortage(短缺 seems strange to someone fortunate enough to live in a high rainfall country, many of the world's agricultural industries experience constant water shortages. Although dams can be built to store water for agricultural use in dry areas and dry seasons, the costs of water redistribution(重新分配 are very high. Not only is there the cost of the engineering itself, but there is also an environmental cost to be considered. Where valleys(山谷 are flooded to create dams, houses are lost and wildlife homes destroyed. Besides, water may flow easily through pipes to fields, but it cannot be transported from one side of the world to the other. Each country must therefore rely on the management of its own water to supply its farming requirements. This is particularly troubling for countries with agricultural industries in areas dependent on irrigation (灌溉 . In Texas, farmers' overuse of irrigation water has resulted in a 25% reduction of the water stores. In the Central Valley area of southwestern USA, a huge water engineering project provided water for farming in dry valleys, but much of the water use has been poorly managed. Saudi Arabia's attempts to grow wheat in desert areas have seen the pumping of huge quantities of irrigation water from underground reserves. Because there is no rainfall in these areas, such reserves can only decrease, and it is believed that fifty years of pumping will see them run dry. 1. From the first two paragraphs we learn that________.

Many of us love July because it's the month when nature's berries and stone fruits are in abundance. These colourful and sweet jewels form British Columbia's fields are little power houses of nutritional protection. Of the common berries, strawberries are highest in vitamin C, although, because of their seeds, raspberries contain a little more protein（蛋白质）, iron and zinc（not that fruits have much protein）. Blueberries are particularly high in antioxidants（抗氧化物质）. The yellow and orange stone fruits such as peaches are high in the carotenoids we turn into vitamin A and which are antioxidants. As for cherries（樱桃）, they are so delicious who cares? However, they are rich in vitamin C. When combined with berries of slices of other fruits, frozen bananas make an excellent base for thick, cooling fruit shakes and low fat "ice cream". For this purpose, select ripe bananas for freezing as they are much sweeter. Remove the skin and place them in plastic bags or containers and freeze. If you like, a squeeze of fresh lemon juice on the bananas will prevent them turning brown. Frozen bananas will last several weeks, depending on their ripeness and the temperature of the freezer. If you have a juicer you can simply feed in frozen bananas and some berries or sliced fruit. Out comes a "soft-serve" creamy dessert, to be eaten right away. This makes a fun activity for a children's party; they love feeding the fruit and frozen bananas into the top of the machine and watching the ice cream come out below. （1）What does the author seem to like about cherries? A.They are high in vitamin A. B.They contain protein. C.They are rich in antioxidants. D.They have a pleasant taste. （2）Why is fresh lemon juice used in freezing bananas? A.To keep their colour. B.To make them smell better. C.To improve their nutrition. D.To speed up their ripening. （3）What is "a juicer" in the last paragraph? A.A drink. B.A dessert. C.A machine. D.A container. （4）From which is the text probably taken? A.A health magazine. B.A biology textbook.
