四川省内江市2014 高考英语阅读理解和完形填空训练(13)附答案

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 even cancer.

Anger is a normal emotion that we all feel from time to time. Some people express

anger openly in a calm reasonable way. Some burst with anger, and scream and yell(咆哮). But others 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 hormones( 荷尔蒙 ). They speed the heart rate, raise blood pressure, o r 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 that ______.

A. the emotion is harmless

B. the emotion is harmful

C. the feeling is very strong

D. the feeling is hard

2. Which of the following statements is right?

A. Were you angry, you would be cancered.

B. Once you are angry, you must be cancered.

C. Angry as you are often, you can’t be cancered.

D. Anger may cause you to suffer from a cancer.

3. Expressing anger violently ______ repressing it according to some scientists.

A. is just the same as

B. is more harmful than

C. is no better than

D. is much better than

4.According to the author, you’d better ______.

A. never be angry

B. cool down your anger before you express it

C. laugh and laugh when you get angry

D. admit you are wrong when you are angry

本文主要告诉读者愤怒是最危险的一种感情。因为如果人们处理不恰当的话,它就可以导致

许多疾病。同时文章还指出处理愤怒的比较好的办法是从令你愤怒的事情中找到能让你感到

快乐的东西,因为笑对人的健康有好处。

1. B。考查猜测词义题。根据damaging 一词以及本段最后提到的可以引起许多疾病可知。2. D。考查细节理解。根据文章第一段中最后一句可知。

3. C。考查细节理解。根据文章第四段第一句话可知。no better than=as bad as。4. B。考查细节理解。根据文章倒数第二段的最后一句话可知。

众所周知,汉语语言中有很多的语言典故,同样,英语语言中也有很多典故。本文就讲述了

一个英语典故——“ Indian summer ”的由来。

Just what is a tiger mother ? Amy Chua is a law professor at America's Yale University and her recent book on the subject is making waves.She's been called “dangerous”,“ outrageous ”, even a “monster ” for her descriptions of how she

brought up her two daughters.

Her book Battle Hymnof the Tiger Mother describes fighting with a daughter for hours at the piano to ensure the child gets a piece of music right.She rejected birthday

cards made for her by her girls because she didn't think they had made enough effort.She

compared one child negatively with the other , threatening to burn their toys.Her rules

include:schoolwork always comes first; an A-minus is a bad grade; children must be

two years ahead of their classmates in math,and playing the violin or the piano is

a must.

Ms.Chua considers the Chinese hard work ethic as a way of creating happy,successful children—at least in her case.Although she's had a large amount of flak

for her theories,one thing can't be ignored — the success of Chinese children in the education system.

In Britain,shocking research shows that Chinese girls,for example , are outperforming all other foreign groups at GCSE—79 percent getting 5 A-C Gra des,compared with 58 percent of white British girls.So what is it about Chinese parenting

that's leading to high achievers?And how do Amy Chua's theories play into that

success?

She told me that if her daughter came back from school with 96/100 in a test,Chua would ask her what happened to the other 4 points.It's about always knowing “you

can do better”,she told me.

Interestingly, in China , the birthplace of the tiger mother,people are moving away from traditional Chinese parenting.They are following more western parenting

styles.

1.After reading Amy Chua's recent book,the public ______.

A.feel very sorry for their own children

B.consider her a very successful mother

C.realize their methods of bringing up children are wrong

D.don't think highly of her methods of bringing up her children

2.What can we learn about Amy Chua according to Paragraph 2?

A.She is very strict with her children.

B.She doesn't think her children are clever.

C.She is very interested in playing the piano.

D.She knows playing is important to children.

3.Paragraph 4 shows that ______.

A.Chinese parents don't think grades are very important

B.Chinese children are cleverer than British children

C.Chinese parents are proud of their children

D.Chinese children do well in their study

4.The underlin ed word “flak ” in the third paragraph probably means “______”.A.attention B. criticism

C.curiosity D. contribution

5.It can be inferred from the text that ______.

A.Amy Chua will change her methods

B.Amy Chua considers her methods useful

C.Amy Chua's children don't love their mother

D.Amy Chua's children prefer western parenting styles

2

1.D推理判断题。根据第一段“She's been called‘dangerous’,‘ outrageous’,even a ‘monster ’. .. ”可推断出,公众对她的教育方法评价不高。

2.A推理判断题。根据第二段可知她对她的孩子们很严厉。

3.D细节理解题。根据第四段“...Chinese girls,for example , are outperforming all other foreign groups at GCSE—79 percent getting 5 A-C Grades...”可知,中国

的孩子学习成绩要好得多。

4.B词义猜测题。attention意为“注意”;criticism意为“批评”;curiosity意为“好奇”; contribution意为“贡献”。根据第一段人们的评价,结合Although引导的让步状语从句判断, B 项符合逻辑。句意:尽管她因为她的教育理论受到了很多批评,但是有一

点不容忽视——中国孩子在教育上的成功。

5.B推理判断题。根据第三段“Ms.Chua considers the Chinese hard work ethic as

a way of creating happy ,successful children... ”可推断出,她认为她的教育方法很有用。

条能最快到达目的地的路。in a hurry to do sth.“急于做某事” 。

37. D。考查对下文语境的理解。此题易误选 A 项,但从下文来看,此处并未选定走哪条路,

只是建议而已。

38. B。考查对上下文语境的理解。从司机所说的话来判断,他一定是“很生气”的。下文中

的annoyed 一词也是暗示。

39. C。女商人试图向司机解释,她并不是想要惹司机生气的,因此本题选meant。

40. D。结合上下文语境可知,司机不断大喊大叫。

41. A。考查形容词辨析。她意识到他恼怒得已经不讲道理了。reasonable “讲道理的,有理性的” 符合语境。 thoughtful“沉思的,思考的” ;normal“正常的,平常的” ;practical“实际的,实践的,实用的”。

45. A。考查对上下文语境的理解。对女商人的突然转变,司机自然是感到“惊奇”的,他不

再跟她争论,居然开车送她了。

46. A。坐在出租车上的自然应是rider“乘客”。

47. A。考查句型。直到女商人下车付车费,司机一句话也没有再讲。本句考查了句型:

not...until...“直到,,才,,”。

48. D。考查词组搭配。be faced with“面临”。此处意为:当你发现自己面对像这位出租车

司机那样的人时 ,, 。

49. C。考查动词短语辨析。结合下文内容可知,此处意为:当你遇上像上面那位出租车司机

那样的人时,你常常试图坚持己见,但是这样只能引起更多的争执,由此可知应选C项,stick to “遵守,坚持” 。

50. B。考查动词辨析。此处指固执己见的后果之一是破坏婚姻。destroy指“毁坏,毁灭,

破坏”。

51. D。易误选C。 but 强调的是but 后面的内容,但本句强调的是one simple method,固可将其排除。而选though 则可,指我发现一种简单的方法,虽然不是特别容易做到,但能阻止

导致危机。

52. B。考查词组搭配。result in“引起,导致,以,,为结局”,符合题意。

53. C。考查名词辨析。此处意为:关键是要站在别人的立场上。key “关键”,符合题意。

SHANGHAI— Health experts in Shanghai are calling for more protection for young

children as the latest research shows about half of the youngsters are suffering from second-hand smoke.

About 45 percent of children suffer passive smoking in families,50 percent in

public places ,and almost 6 percent on public transportation,shows a research released by the Shanghai Children's Medical Center on Tuesday.

“Not only adults but also children and newborn babies are at risk for the adverse effects of passive smoking ,” said Tang Jingyan , a doctor at the Shanghai Children's

Medical Center.

“Actually,those young children whose bodies are still growing and developing

are more sensitive to the effects of secondhand smoke.”

Research has shown that children who are exposed to secondhand smoke will suffer from more colds , coughs and sore throats, and they are more likely to suffer from bronchitis, pneumonia and will have a higher risk of developing cancer.

Doctors even suggested that children suffering passive smoking are more likely

to have behavioral problems and may not develop mentally as quickly as their peers.

Other research by the Shanghai Children's Medical Center has found that more than 80 percent of child patients in the center live in a smoke-fi lled household, where one or both parents smoke.

“Though doctors have stressed the harm of passive smoking over and over, it is still hard to reach a totally smoke-free home,” said a pediatrician named Zhang

Yiwen ,noting that parents are often tempted to smoke even though they have learned

the harmful effects of secondhand smoke.

China has 540 million people suffering from passive smoke,180 million of them

younger than 15.The age of smokers is also getting lower, earlier reports said.

“There are more young smo kers than before.You can see young people wearing a

school uniform and carrying a schoolbag light a cigarette on the street.Some of them are even female students,” said Jing Xingming, a professor of children's developmental behavior at the center.

“Children like to imitate adults,especially their parents.If parents often smoke at home , it is very likely children will develop a smoking habit, which can cause a vicious circle,” Jin said.

Reports from the Ministry of Health said China has about 350 million smokers,of whom15 million are underage smokers.Also, around40 million of the country's130 million children aged between 13and 18had tried smoking, and 15 million had become addicted to tobacco.

1.What is the main idea of the passage?

A.About half of the youngsters are suffering from secondhand smoke.

B.Experts are calling for more protection for youngsters from smoking.

C.More and more youngsters are picking up the habit of smoking.

D.Smoking does great harm to the health of the youngsters.

2.Which youngsters most possibly develop a habit of smoking?

A.Children of nonsmoking mothers.

B.Children of nonsmoking fathers.

C.Children of heavy smokers.

D.Children from some smoking centers.

3.Which of the following disease may not be connected with secondhand smoking?

A.Cancer.B. Behavioral problems.

C.Sore throats.D. Coughs.

4.The underlined word “vicious ” in the eleventh paragraph most probably means ______.

A.complete B.simple

C.great D.bad

5.What can be inferred from the passage?

A.About 80 percent of the children in the Shanghai Children's Medical Center

smoke heavily.

B.About 45 percent of children suffer passive smoking in the Shanghai Children's Medical Center.

C.About 540 million people are heavy smokers in China.

D.Children aged between 13 to 18 are more likely addicted to smoking.

6

1. B主旨大意题。本文为新闻,根据第一段的导语可知,专家们呼吁要保护孩子们,

防止他们受二手烟的危害,所以答案为 B 项。

2.C细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“ If parents often smoke at home,it is very likely children will develop a smoking habit,which can cause a vicious circle...”可知答案为 C 项。

3.B细节理解题。根据第五段“Research has shown that children who are exposed

to secondhand smoke will suffer from more colds,coughs and sore throats,and they are more likely to suffer from bronchitis,pneumonia and will have a higher risk of developing cancer.”可知,感冒、咳嗽、嗓子沙哑、支气管炎、肺炎、癌症都与二手烟有

关,但是没有提到行为问题也与二手烟有关,所以应选B项。

4. D词义猜测题。由文中可知孩子喜欢模仿大人,尤其是他们的父母。一旦孩子养成

吸烟的习惯,就有可能会继续影响下一代,这样自然会导致恶性循环了。故可判断答案为D 项。

5. D逻辑推理题。根据最后一段“Also ,around 40 million of the country's 130

million children aged between 13 and 18 had tried smoking,and 15 million had become

addicted to tobacco.”可判断答案为D项。

As he was approaching 60,I had a fun idea: What if I could get the memories people had of him, put each one into an envelope—60 in total—and have him open them, one by one, on his birthday? So I wrote an e-mail to family and friends, explaining my idea. I sent the e-mail and waited. And then the replies started coming in and I was very, very surprised. There were so many memories, and they were all so lovely. They came from the '50s, '60s, '70s, from every decade(十年) between now and the day my dad was born. They came from my mother, my siblings, my grandma, my dad's friends from high school, his sister, my dad's first boss, a colleague at his first job, from people who hadn't seen my dad in 40 years, from people I myself hadn't even informed. They typed them and handwrote them. They mailed them and e-mailed them. The night before Dad's birthday, my sister and I stayed up late, putting everything together with some envelopes.
