A forest fire that burned 55 square kilometres was finally brought under control on Wednesday morning. The fire started on Sunday in Black Bear State Park and quickly spread to nearby areas.

On Monday, police evacuated(疏散) the small town of Lawson and ordered the people to leave their homes. The fire destroyed 20 homes in the area and caused heavy damage(损坏) to 40 others.

Nobody was hurt. Officials said the damage to homes and cars was between $l million and $2 million. The government declared the town a disaster(灾难) area. The fire spread quickly in the hot, dry weather. Fire fighting was difficult because of strong winds. Firemen from 55 fire departments in the state joined the National Fire Service to

put out the fire. Some kept fighting for 24 hours. Fire engines and helicopters(直升飞机) dropped water onto the fire. In order to control the fire, firemen cleared a way around the fire.

Police closed King Road to traffic on Tuesday because of heavy smoke. Thousands of tourists had to drive an hour north to Queen Road to pass the fire area.

As with facial(面部) expressions, people everywhere use hand gestures(手势) to communicate(交流). Around the world, these have different meanings. A friendly hand gesture used in one culture might be unfamiliar or even rude in another.

Gestures for “hello” and “good-bye” differ around the world. In North and South America, and many parts of Europe, people often shake hands to greet others—especially in business. In North America, men and women shake hands firmly. This shows respect for the other person. In many Asian countries, it is often more common to nod the head once, or bow(鞠躬) when meeting for the first time.

To gesture good-bye in North America, many people wave one of their hands from left to right many times quickly. Americans also do this to greet someone in a friendly, casual way. In many Asian countries, this gesture often means “no”.

In many countries, to gesture that something is “okay” it is common to join the thumb(拇指) and forefinger together to make a circle, with the other three fingers standing up. In Brazil this gesture is very rude. In some countries, like France, it means “zero”.

In the Unites States, it is common to beckon(召唤) a person to you by raising your hand with the palm facing you, and moving the forefinger from one side to another. This gesture is considered rude in some countries, so more often people will hold their hand with the palm facing down, and move the whole hand from one side to another.

Hand gestures, like facial expressions, communicate important messages. When traveling or meeting someone from another country, be careful how you use them.

62. Do hand gestures have the same meanings in different countries?

63. How many gestures for greeting are mentioned(提及) in the passage?

64. What?s the meanings of “waving one?s hand from left to right” in many Asian

There are many special hotels around the world. In Greenland, there is a hotel made out of ice, open between December and April every year. In Turkey, there is a cave hotel with a television, furniture, and a bathroom in each room. And in Bolivia, there is the Salt Palace Hotel.

Thousands of years ago, the area around the Salt Palace Hotel was a large lake. But over time, all the water disappeared. Today, the area has only two small lakes and two salt deserts.

The larger of the two deserts, the Uyuni salt desert, is 12,000 square kilometres. During the day, the desert is bright white because of the salt. There are no roads across the Uyuni desert, so local people must show guests the way to the hotel.

In the early 1990s, a man named Juan Quesada built the hotel. He cut big blocks of

salt from the desert and used the blocks to build it. Everything in the hotel is made out of salt—the walls, the roof, the table s, the chairs, the beds, and the hotel?s bar.

The sun heats the walls and roof during the day. At night the desert is very cold, but the rooms stay warm. The hotel has twelve rooms. A single room costs $40 a night, and a double room costs $60.

Who's building the new China? It's not the factory owners or the business men and women of China. It's someone else. It's the people who have left their homes to follow their dreams, the dream of a better life.

We see them every day, on every street corner, on every construction site（建筑工地）in cities. They work day and night in the terrible working conditions and weather. They build the roads, the theaters, the cinemas, and the supermarkets. They even clean up our rubbish. They are China?s migrant workers(民工). Young and old, these men and women are building the new China from the ground up.

More than 140 million workers have left their homes in the countryside to look for jobs in big cities all over China. They hope to be rich, but they realize they have many difficulties in making enough money for their family. And the biggest difficulty that these workers have is the pride and discrimination ( 歧视) from the people in cities. When night falls, everywhere I look I see the sad faces of the migrant workers. We can see them playing cards along the streets. Many are living far away from those whom they love. I can sometimes feel their pain(痛), knowing exactly what it feels like to live so far away from home in a city where they walk a different walk and talk a different talk. Yes, they dress differently, they speak differently, and they have different habits, but they work hard to make money. The people in cities consider them as outsiders, and some local governments refuse to give them medical care and public schooling for their children.

If China hopes to move into the future, many things need to be changed. The first

is discrimination! We need to stop our discrimination against the migrant workers of China! They may not make as much money as some people in cities, they may not have everything we have, but they are good honest people just trying to survive this game of life. These workers are very important to China's economic (经济的) development and have become an important force ( 力量) for the change of Chinese society. They are building the new China, so we should lend our hands and help them.

62. Who does the writer think are building the new China?

Do you enjoy climbing mountains? I?d like to tell you a true story about John and Peter. They were b 67 mountaineers(登山者). As John was experienced, he was always asking Peter to copy his example. “Would you like to stand on the t 68 of the world, Peter?” “Of course. It has already b 69 my dream,” Peter answered.

On a sunny morning, the two men started for the top of Mount Qomolangma. After they climbed over one of the most d 70 slopes(斜坡), they found a man lying in the snow. “He?s going to d 71 ,” Peter looked at John and said, as if he would help the man. “ Leave him by himself and just follow me! But if you bring the burden(累赘)with you, I?m a 72 you will lose your life.” John warned Peter. Then he turned around and walked forward a 73 . It was too cold. After thinking for a w 74 , Peter

made up his mind to help the dying man. He carried the man on his back and made his way forward. Little by little, Peter?s temperature made the man w 75 . The man came to himself! And soon he could move all by himself. Together they moved side by side.

About two hours later, they kept up with John. To their surprise, they found that John was

almost d 76 in the snow. He had been frozen to death.

．．．．Ten-year old Obama was one of the only three black students at his school in Honolulu, Hawaii. The young boy didn?t look the same as most other students. White

girls wanted to touch his hair. A white boy asked him whether

his father ate people. “I lied to them that my father was a

Kenyan prince, but I kept asking my self who I was,” said

Obama.

However, 37 years later, the boy made history. Barack

Obama became the first black president in U.S. history.

Obama was born on August 4, 1961. His father is an African （非洲人）and his mother is a white American. This unusual background made him want to know who he was. With the help of his friends, Obama finally went to college. His hard work made him a star at Harvard University, a famous university in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Later, he became the third black senator（议员）in U.S. history.

During his competition for U.S. president, Obama talked about his background. He called for a United States of America, rather than a white America or a black America. Obama?s success is a historic victory(胜利). It made Martin Luther King?s dream come true. That is: A man should not be judged by the colour of his skin, but by the content of

Advertisements are an important part of our lives. We are so used to them that we often do not even realize how many we see and hear in a day!

What is an advertisement?

An advertisement provides information and uses creative languages and attractive pictures to encourage people to buy a product（产品）or service or believe in an idea. Newspapers, magazines, the Internet, radios and televisions are the most places to find advertisem ents. There are two main types of advertisements―commercial advertisements and public service advertisements (PSAs). A commercial advertisement is one which someone has paid for to promote (提升) a product or service. PSAs are often placed for free, and are used to educate people about health, safety, or any other issue which affects public welfare(公共福利).

Does an advertisement tell people the complete truth?

China has strong laws to protect people from advertisements that lie or try to make people believe untrue promises about products or services. However, we still must be careful with the methods(方法) used in advertisements to try and sell us things. Even if an ad does not lie, it does not mean it tells you the complete truth. One toothpaste ad says 'Bright-teeth fights bad breath!' The advertisers want you to read the word 'fights' and think that the toothpaste cures bad breath, but it does not say that! All it says is that it fights it and that is not the same thing at all. One supermarket tells buyers, 'You are proud of your cooking, so shouldn't you buy the freshest food?' This one is very clever, because it tells buyers that they are good cooks. However, the ad never says that this supermarket has the freshest food! They just hope that you read the ad, you will feel good about what it says and remember the words 'freshest food' and then buy it in the supermarket. We must not fall for this kind of trick!

Public service advertisements

Not all ads play tricks on us though. PSAs use some of the same methods, but they are made to serve the public. PSAs are meant to teach us and help us lead better lives. You have probably seen or heard some of them yourself, like 'Yes to life, no to drugs' and 'Knowledge changes life'. These ads deal with large social issues. There are also PSAs that educate people about public service projects, such as Project Hope. All of these ads are meant to be helpful, and you can often learn a lot by following the advice they give. Try to remember: think about why you should do or buy the things the ad suggests. We all want to be smart about what we believe, so be smart about advertisements

On a Friday night in New York, a poor young man called Jay stood near the railway station, playing his violin. The music was s 72 great that many people slowed down and put some money into his hat.

Before long, many people came, looking at the paper. It s 74 , “Last night, a gentleman named George Sang put an important thing into my hat. Please come to claim(认领)it soon.”

turtles in the world. Four of them lay their eggs on the

Malaysian beaches. These are: the leaderback turtles, hawksbill turtle, olive ridley turtle and the green turtle.

In West Malaysia, there is a long sand beach. From June to August every year, giant turtles come to the beach to lay eggs. They appear only late at night to lay their eggs in holes. They dig these holes with their hind flippers.

When they have finished laying their eggs, they fill up the holes with sand and return to the sea. The mother turtles never see their babies. The hot sun keeps the eggs warm and until they hatch（孵化）. Then the baby turtles will go back to the sea to begin their new lives. In the past, many people came to dig up the eggs after the mother turtles had left. They took the eggs to town to sell.

Since 1962, the Malaysian government has built high fences（围篱）around the sand beach to stop anyone from digging turtle eggs, because people are afraid that there

Flu, or influenza, is a common illness that makes you feel

very tired and weak, and makes you cough and have a fever.

But recently we find a new kind flu c72 H1N1

influenza A. We find ourselves in the dark about the

terrible flu virus.Is it quite d73 from a common flu?

The answer is no, because it seems s 74 to regular human flu with a fever, cough and a headache. The answer is y75 , because it has caused at least 64 d76 around the world. And the World Health Organization has confirmed（确诊）about 6,500 cases.

The flu virus first appeared in pigs or swines. WHO says the virus is being spread from human-to-human, not from contact with infected（被感染的）pigs. Scientists try to know clearly how it jumped to humans. The steps are aimed at stopping further spread of the virus.

Pork imports aren?t a 77 from the areas which have swine flu. Though experts said swine flu is not connected with pigs and not spread by e 78 pork.

So far groups of illnesses seem related to Mexican travel. For example, some students in New York fell i 79 from an spring outing in Mexico. Flu viruses can be spread by touching(触摸) your mouth or nose w 80 unwashed hands. Swine flu can be treated, but so many confirmed cases s 81 that we had better take early notice, in case it would be too late.

Rrrring! That?s the bell for another new term. How do you feel whe n you are in a new school? Do you have feeling of happiness and excitement or feeling of fear? New teachers, classes, classmates and maybe even a new school can all cause students to worry. But there are some things you can do to avoid(避免) back-to-school blues.

Become familiar

Will you go to a new school this year? Then during the summer, visit your new school and find out the answers to the following questions. Your first day won?t be in a mess.

*Where is it?

*How long does it take you to get there?

Keep it in balance

Decide how many activities you?ll take part in, and don?t do too much. Achieving a balance between schoolwork and extra activities will keep your stress level low.

Make a smart start

Get plenty of rest. It sounds simple, but most teenagers get far less sleep than they need.

Studies show that a teen needs over nine hours of sleep a night. When tired, they all become more easily stressed. And stress makes everything seem worse than it really is.

Here is another tip to help you prepar e for the first day of school. You?d better start going to bed and getting up at your school time two weeks before school begins. Then your body and mind will become rested and prepared for the first day.

Get involved

The best way to make new friends is to join school clubs. Choose something you enjoy and you?ll meet people who share your interests.

All in all, with the rest, preparation and the good mood, you will certainly have a great school year.

Most people have jobs. They go to work nearly every day. Some people are lucky. Either they have very interesting jobs or they earn a lot of money. Most people are not so lucky. Either their jobs are a bit boring or they don?t get well paid.

The most interesting jobs are often the most difficult. People take a long time to learn how to do them. Doctors study for at least six years after finishing school. Airline pilots study longer. They have to learn to fly small aircraft first, and then slowly move up to bigger and bigger aircraft. Most airline pilots are at least 30 years old.

Some young people have interesting and well-paid jobs. Many successful athletes are young. Football and tennis stars are usually under 35. Older people usually cannot play these sports very well. They cannot move fast enough. Golf, however, is a good sport for older people. Many successful golfers are quite old.

Most people work until they are 60 or 65 years old. Then they retire and have a lot of spare time. Some people never retire though. These people usually have very interesting jobs. Writers, artists, musicians and actors usually work until they die. Their

细节英语阅读理解题及答案10篇

英语阅读理解最新详解-如何应对阅读理解中的细节题和推理题 一、做细节事实题的方法 在阅读理解题目中，有相当一部分是考查细节和事实的题目。这类题目相对容易一些。这些题目有两个共同特点：(1) 凡属针对特定细节的考题，其正确答案大都可以在阅读材料中找到对应的文字部分作为验证。这一部分可能是一个词或短语，也可能是一个句子或相关的若干句子，但句式、用词和表达方式不同。(2) 干扰项往往是主体思想与细节混杂，正确答案细节和非正确答案的细节混杂，甚至真假混杂。因此，要做好阅读理解中的确定细节和事实的题目，一要在文章中找出相应的信息点，二要排除干扰项。 二、做推理判断题的方法 所谓推断，就是根据阅读材料中所提供的信息，推断出未知的信息。即把有关的文字作为已知部分，从中推断出未知部分。据以推断的有关文字可能是词或句子，也可能是若干句子，甚至是全文。中考英语试题中的推断题主要有以下几种： 1．事实推断 这种推断常常针对某一个或几个具体细节，是比较简单的推断。进行这种推断，要首先在文章中找出据以推断的有关文字，然后加以分析，尤其要悟出字里行间的意思。例如：According to the passage, which of the following can you most possibly watch on TV? A. You often play football with your friends after school. B. Your teacher has got a cold. C. A tiger in the city zoo has run out and hasn't been caught. D. The bike in front of your house is lost. 在阅读材料中，有这样一段文字： Secondly, a news story has to be interesting and unusual. People don't want to read stories about everyday life. As a result, many stories are about some kind of danger and seem to be "bad" news. 根据这段文字，我们可以推断：电视报道的新闻故事必须是有趣的和不平常的。因此，正确答案应为C。 2．指代推断 确定代词的含义和指代对象是阅读理解题常见的题目。要确定指代词所指代的对象，关键在于对所在上下文的正确理解。指代名词的指代词，其单复数形式英语被指代的词一致，因此数的形式可作为识别指代对象第一个辅助标志。 3．逻辑推断 这类题目往往是要求根据文章所提供的背景，人物的表情，动作和语言来推断出人物的态度或感觉。 4．对作者的意图和态度的推断 这一类考题大都要求考生就作者对论述对象持什么样的态度做出推断，如作者对所陈述的观点是赞同、反对，还是犹豫不定，对记述或描写的人、物或事件是赞颂、同情、冷漠，还是厌恶。作者的这种思想倾向和感情色彩不一定直接表述出来，而往往隐含在字里行间。因此，进行这种推断时，我们既要依靠短文的主题思想作为推力的前提，又要注意作者的措辞，尤其是形容词一类的修饰语。 阅读理解10篇 Many children use the Internet to get useful knowledge and information, and to relax in their free time.

英语阅读理解题及答案

英语阅读理解题及答案 Do you love holidays but hate the increase weight that follows? You are not alone. Holidays are happy days with pleasure and delicious foods. Many people, however, are worried about the weight that comes along with these delicious foods. With proper planning, though, it is possible to control your weight. The idea is to enjoy the holidays but not to eat too much. You don't have to turn away from the foods that you enjoy. The following suggestions may be of some help to you. Do not miss meals. Before yon leave home for a feast(宴会),have a small, low-fat snack(小吃). This may help to keep you from getting too excited before delicious foods. Begin with clear soup and fruit or vegetables. A large glass of water before you eat may help you feel full. Use a small plate; a large plate will encourage you to have more than enough. Better not have high-fat foods. Dishes that look oily or creamy have much fat in them. Choose lean meat(瘦肉 ).Fill your plate with salad and green vegetables. If you have a sweet tooth, try mints (薄荷) and fruits. They don’t have fat content as cream and chocolate. Don’t let exercise take a break during the holidays. A 20-minute walk after a meal can help burn off excess(过多的) calories.

一、高中英语阅读理解 1．阅读理解 At the age of seven, while his friends were spending pocket money on things like candy and toys, Jose Adolfo was busy saving money for more essential purchases. To try to get his peers to do the same, the youngster from Arequipa, Peru came up with the innovative idea of an eco-bank, which allows kids of all ages to gain economic independence—while also helping the environment. Established in 2012, the Bartselana Student Bank is the world's first bank for kids. To open an account, kids have to bring in at least 5 kilograms of solid waste (paper or plastic) and establish a savings goal. Once accepted, all bank "partners" are required to deposit(存储) at least one additional kilogram of recyclables on a monthly basis and meet other requirements, such as attending financial education and environmental management workshops. The waste collected is sold to local recycling companies, who, thanks to Jose, pay a higher-than-market rate for everything brought in by Bartselana Student Bank members. The funds received are placed in the individual's account until his/her savings goal is reached. The account holder can then withdraw his/her money, or choose to leave it and continue to grow for a bigger target. "At the beginning, my teachers thought I was crazy," Jose recalls. "They did not understand that we are not the future of the country but its present. Luckily. I had the support of the school principal." By 2013, the bank had over 200 members who brought in one ton of recyclable waste. Today, the eco-bank, which now has the support of several local institutions, has ten educational centers. They are designed to teach the over 3,000 members both finance and environmental management. On December 6, 2018, in response to the growing demand, Bartselana Student Bank began accepting applications from kids all across Peru. As the teenager says, "Together we can change the world. We just need an opportunity." （1）What is the purpose of the eco-bank? A. To involve kids in the management of the local recycling companies. B. To help kids get pocket money to spend on things like candy and toys. C. To show kids how important it is to learn environmental management. D. To get kids to help the environment and be economically independent. （2）What duty does an eco-bank member have to perform? A. Attending financial education workshops. B. Bringing in 5 kilos of waste. C. Saving one kilo of solid waste weekly. D. Establishing a savings goal. （3）What does the underlined part in Paragraph 4 mean? A. Kids are more responsible when growing up. B. The future of the country relies mainly on kids. C. Kids can contribute to the society though young. D. The present is a vital period for kid development. （4）Which of the following words can best describe Jose? A. Generous. B. Crazy. C. Flexible. D. Influential.

(英语)英语阅读理解练习题及答案含解析

（英语）英语阅读理解练习题及答案含解析 一、高中英语阅读理解 1．阅读理解 Castle Dale is a small town in central Utah. My grandpa's farm is a few miles to the north. I grew up there. Milking a cow, feeding the chickens and cutting firewood were daily routines. Grandpa had me carrying a broom to do snow cleaning when it was actually taller than I was. This was the work kids like me learned to do at a young age. I was tall, very tall at a really young age. My unusual height caused people to look, ask questions, laugh, tease, and sometimes even challenge me to fight. I was teased cruelly as a kid. It wasn't fair, I knew, but that was just the way it was. Luckily, I was taught at a very young age a very important lesson. I am different and that's Okay—I'm unique and I matter. No one could ever take that away from me. I knew this then, and I know this now. That alone helped me through the frustrations and heartaches of normal life. When I was in junior high school, I realized something else that helped me cope. Most teasing came from one of two places—people who were either jealous or ignorant (愚昧). I couldn't change the way they were, but I could change the way I felt. I was not going to feel bad because of their ignorance or jealousy. It wasn't worth it. Realizing this didn't stop them, or change the fact that these comments hurt. It did, however, give me a way to understand these people and deal with their treatment in a way that was okay for me. These things still happen today. It will probably happen the rest of my life. I will always be 7 feet, 6 inches (2.29 meters) tall. I wouldn't change that for anything. People will always look because it is not every day that you see someone that tall. I learned that at a young age and I now try to teach my own children that they are unique and they matter. That is the message I give to you. Regardless of your race, religion, background, or circumstances ... Being different is okay. （1）The author mentioned his hometown to show us _______. A. he is from an ordinary family B. his grandpa is strict with him C. he loves this lovely small town D. he had to do a lot of labor work （2）The author was often teased because _______. A. he grew up in a small town B. he was much taller than others C. he fought with people easily D. he didn't want people to watch him （3）What was the author's attitude towards being teased? A. He accepted the fact of being different and let it go. B. He felt angry failing to change others' opinions. C. He felt hurt hearing people's negative comments. D. He hated people's ignorance and jealousy. （4）Which of the following may best describe the theme of the passage? A. Everything comes to the man who waits. B. It is the first step that is troublesome. C. Speech is silver, silence is gold. D. Keep your head up. 【答案】（1）A

【英语】英语阅读理解练习题及答案 一、阅读理解 1．根据短文理解，选择正确答案。 A Some people think only school children do not agree with their parents, however, it is not true. Communication is a problem for parents and children of all ages. If it's hard for you to communicate with your parents, don't worry about it. Here are some suggestions for you to bridge generation gap（代沟）. Don't argue with your parents. Don't get to your parents when you are angry. Your parents probably won't consider your ideas if you are shouting at them You can't express（表达）yourself well if you are angry. Go to some place to cool off. Make sure you understand why you are unhappy. Then think about what you want to say to your parents. If you don't think you can speak to them at the moment, try writing a letter. Try to reach a compromise （和解）. Perhaps you and your parents disagree（有分歧） on something. You can keep your disagreement and try your best to accept each other. Michael's mother didn't agree with him about buying a car. They argued over it, but finally they came to a compromise. Michael bought the car, but only drove it on certain days. Of course your parents might refuse to compromise on something. In these situations, it is especially important to show love and respect （尊敬） to them. Showing respect will keep your relationship strong. Talk about your values. The values of your parents are probably different from those of your own. Tell your parents what you care about, and why. Understanding your values might help them see your purposes in life. A good relationship with your parents can make you a better and happier person. It is worth having a try. （1）From the passage we know_______ have a communication problem.
