Passage 1

I was 15 when I walked into McCarley Bookstore and began to look over the titles of the books on the shelves. The man behind the counter, the owner of the bookstore, asked me if I would like a job. I needed to start saving for c ollege, so I said yes.

I worked after school and during summers for minimum wages and the job he lped pay for my freshman year of college. I worked at many other jobs afterw ards: I made coffee in the student union during college. I made maps for the U.S Forest Service. But selling books was one of the most satisfying.

One day a woman asked me for books on cancer. She seemed fearful. I show ed her everything we had and found other books we could order. She left the shop less worried and I‘ve always remembered the pride I felt in having help ed her.

Years later, as a television reporter, I heard about a poor child who was born with his fingers of the left hand linked together. His family could not afford t he corrective surgery, and the boy lived in shame, hiding his left hand in his pocket.

I persuaded my boss to let me do the story on TV. After my story was broad cast, a doctor and a nurse called, offering to perform the surgery for free.

I visited the boy in the recovery room after the operation. The first thing he d id was hold up his repaired hand and say, ―Thank you.‖ I was overjoyed and filled with a strong sense of reward.

At McCarley Bookstore, I always felt I was working for the customers, not ju st for the st ore. Today it‘s the same. NBC news pays me the salary. But I fe el that I work for the viewers, helping them make sense of the world. My wo rking experience in McCarley Bookstore helped me find a good sense of the world, and most importantly, it helped me find a good sense of myself.

Passage 2

Paper was invented by the Chinese in the first century AD. Paper was not ma de in southern Europe until about the year 1100. Scandinavia - which now ma kes a great deal of the world‘s paper - did not begin to make it until 1500. Most paper is made from wood. Paper-making is an important British industry and paper from Britain is sold to many countries such as Australia and South Africa. Some of the wood used in the British paper making industry comes f rom trees grown in Britain, but wood is also bought from other countries such as Norway. One tree is needed for every four hundred copies of a forty-page

newspaper. If half the adults in Britain buy one daily paper, this uses up ove r a thousand trees a day. All over the world, trees are being cut down faster t han they are being planted, so there may be a serious need for paper at the b eginning of next century.

When we think of paper, we think of newspaper, books, letters and writing pa per. But there are many other uses. Only half of paper is used for books and newspaper, etc. Paper is very good for keeping you warm. Each year, more an d more things are made of paper. Now we hear that chairs, tables, and even b eds can be made of paper. But the latest in paper making seems to be paper houses.

1. Where was paper invented?

A. In China.

B. In southern Europe.

C. In Scandinavia.

2. Scandinavia began to make paper ____________.

Passage 3

We often use gestures to express our feelings, but the problem is that the gest ures can be understood in different ways.

It is true that a smile means the same thing in any language. So does laughter or crying . Fear is another emotion that is shown in much the same way all over the world. In Chinese and in English literature, a phrase like ?he went pa le and began to tremble‘ suggests that the man is either very afraid or he h as just got a very big shock. However, ?he opened his eyes wide‘ is used to su ggest anger in Chinese whereas in English it means surprise. In Chinese, surpri se can be described in a phrase like ?they stretched out their tongues!‘ ―Stretc hing out your tongu e‖ in English is an insulting gesture or expresses strong di slike.

Even in the same culture, people differ in their ability to understand and expre ss feelings. Experiments in America have shown that women are usually better than men at recognizing fear, an ger, love and happiness on people‘s faces. Ot her studies show that older people usually find it easier to recognize or unders tand body language than younger people do.

1. Which of the following is true according to the passage?

A. We can easily under stand what people‘s gestures mean.

B. Words can be better understood by older people.

C. Gestures can be understood by most people but words are not.

D. It is difficult to tell what people‘ gestures really mean sometimes.

2. People‘s faci al expressions may be misunderstood in different cultures becau se ____________.

A. people of different sexes may understand a gesture differently

B. people speaking different languages have different facial expressions

C. people of different ages may have different interpretations

D. people from different cultures have different meanings about some facial expressions

3. From the passage, we can conclude that ____________.

E. gestures can be used to express feelings

F. gestures can be more effectively used than words to express feelings

G. words are often more difficult to understand than gestures

H. gestures are used as frequently as words to express feelings

4. In the same culture, people ____________.

I. hardly ever fail to understand each other‘s ideas and feelings

J. are equally intelligent even if they have different backgrounds

K. almost all have the same understanding of the same thing

L. may have different abilities to understand and express feelings

5. The best title for this passage can be ____________.

M. Gestures

Passage 4

A funny thing happened on the way to the communication revolution: we stop ped talking to each other.

I was walking in the park with a friend recently, and his mobile phone ra ng, interrupting our conversation. There we were, walking and talking on a be autiful sunny day and –poof! –I was cut off as if I had become absent fro m the conversation.

The park was filled with people talking on their cell phones. They were p assing people without looking at them, saying hello, noticing their babies or st opping to pat their dogs. It seems that the limitless electronic voice is preferre d to human contact.

The telephone used to connect you to the absent. Now it makes people fe el absent. Recently I was in a car with three friends. The driver hushed the re st of us because he could not hear the person on the other end of his cell ph one. There we were, four friends driving down the highway, unable to talk to each other because of the small thing designed to make communication easier.

Why is it that the more connected we get, the more disconnected I feel? Every advance in communications technology is a setback (退步) to the closen ess of human interaction. With e-mail and instant message over the Internet, w

e can now communicate without seeing or talking to one another. With voice mail, you can make entire conversations without ever reaching anyone. I

f my mom has a question, I just leave the answer on her machine.

As almost every contact between human beings gets automatic, the emotio nal distance index goes up. Pumping gas at the station? Why say good-mornin g to the assistant when you can swipe you credit card at the pump and save yourself the bother of human contact? Making a deposit at the bank? Why tal k to the clerk who lives in the neighborhood when you can put your card into the ATM?

More and more, I find myself hiding behind e-mail to do a job meant for conversation or being relieved that voice mail picked up because I didn‘t real ly have time to talk. The technology devoted to helping me keep in touch is making me lonelier.

I own a mobile phone, an ATM card, a voice-mail telephone, and an e-m ail account. Giving them up isn‘t a choice. They are great for what they are i ntended to do. It‘s their unintended results that make me upset. What good is all this gee-whiz technology if there is no one in the room to hear you crying out ―Gee whiz‖?

1. T he author‘s experience of walking in a park with a friend recently made h im feel _____________.

A. unhappy

B. funny

C. sunny

D. wonderful

2. According to the author, human contact in a park means ____________.

A. looking at each other and saying hello when passing

B. noticing their babies and stopping to pat their dogs

C. talking on the mobile phone and getting connected with the other people

D. both A and B

3. According to the author, the more connected we get in communications tech nology, the ___________ we are.

A. more automatic

B. easier

C. more disconnected

D. closer

4. What are the examples the author gives to explain his idea that every adva nce in communications technology is a setback to the closeness of human inter action?

A. With e-mail and instant message over the Internet, we can now communicat e without seeing or talking to one another.

B. With voice mail, you can make entire conversations without ever reaching a nyone.

C. If his mom has a question, he just leaves the answer on her machine.

D. All of the above.

5. What is the unintended result of communication technology, according to th

e author?

A. It makes communication easier and conversation possible everywhere.

B. It actually creates a distance between people instead of bringing them toget her.

C. It makes every contact between human beings automatic and makes people feel connected.

D. It makes human contacts limitless with electronic voices everywhere.

Passage 5

Who will stage the games?

Preparing for the Olympics Games is a huge undertaking. Just like the athletes, the host city spends years getting ready for the event. Before deciding which city will host the Olympic Games, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) has to examine bids from all over the world. Bidding for the games begins a bout ten years in advance. Without preparing a very strong bid1, a city will no t win the competition to host the games. Beijing was chosen for the 2008 ga mes from five bidders —Osaka, Paris, Toronto and Istanbul.2

Why does it take so long to prepare?

Building the infrastructure costs huge amounts of money. Holding the World C up in 2002 in Japan and South Korea, for example, meant that ten new stadiu ms had to be built, as well as many hotels and an improved transport system. In Beijing, after winning the bid the government began major construction pr ojects —the extension of the underground, the improvement of the airport and the building of new motorways3. Each host city must also build an Olympic village for the athletes. By planting trees and creating parks, the city becomes more attractive for tourists.

Why do countries want to host the Olympic Games?

Hosting the games has a major effect on the economy and brings international prestige to the country. Thousands and thousands of visitors come to the gam es and the host cities are permanently improved.

1. Bidding for the Olympic Games usually starts ____________ before the ga mes are really held.

A. two years

B. eight years

C. one year

D. ten year s

2. Beijing was one of the _______ bidders for the 2008games.

A. four

B. five

C. ten

D. three

3. The World Cup 2002 was held in _____________.

B. South Korea

C. China

D. A and B

4. What construction projects did Beijing start after winning the bid?

A. The extension of the underground.

B. The improvement of the air port.

C. The building of new motorways

D. All of the above

5. Why do countries want to host the Olympic Games?

A. Because it has a major effect on the economy.

B. Because it brings international prestige to the country.

D. All of the above.

Passage 6

We walked in so quietly that the nurse at the desk didn‘t even lift her eyes fr om the book. Mum pointed at a big chair by the door and I knew she wanted me to sit down.

Passage 3

The ancient Olympic Games were part of a religious festival in honour of the Greek god Zeus, the father of all Greek gods and goddesses. The festival and games were held in Olympia, a religious sanctuary. The athletes came to Olym

pia from all parts of the Greek world, from as far as Spain in the west and T urkey in the east.

The ancient Olympic Games began in the year 776 BC when Koroibos, a coo k from the city of Elis, won a 200-metre-long race. They took place for a per iod of 617 years until the last games were held in AD 393.

In the ancient games, athletes received prizes worth large amounts of money. I n fact the word ― athlete ‖ is an ancient Greek word, meaning ― one who co mpetes for a prize ‖. Although women did not compete in the games, there w as a separate festival held at the same time in honour of Hera, wife of Zeus. At this festival unmarried girls competed in foot races.

The marathon was not an event of the ancient Olympic Games. The marathon is a modern event that was first introduced in the Olympic Games in 1896. It was named after a village called Marathon where the Persians were defeated by a small Greek army. The news of the victory was brought to Athens by so ldier, who ran the 26 miles from the village of Marathon to the capital. 26 mi les was therefore adopted as the distance of the modern marathon race.

The Olympic flag was introduced in 1908 and carries the symbol of five linke d rings. Which represent the five continents –Africa, America, Asia, Australasi a and Europe. The Olympic flame was first carried in the 1932 Olympic Gam es in Los Angeles. There was no torch relay in the ancient Olympic Games.

（英语）英语阅读理解练习题20篇及解析 一、高中英语阅读理解 1．阅读理解 Many people have long dreamed of being able to fly around as simply as riding a bicycle. Yet the safety and strength of a flying bike was always a big problem. Over the past 10 years, developments in technology have moved the dream of personal flying vehicles closer to reality. Now, two groups of inventors say such vehicles may be available soon. The British company Malloy Aeronautics has developed a prototype (原型) of its flying bicycle. Grant Stapleton, marketing sales director of Malloy Aeronautics, says the Hoverbike is able to get in and out of small spaces very quickly. It can be moved across continents very quickly because it can be folded and packed, he adds. Mr. Stapleton says safety was the company's main concern. He says the designers solved the safety issue by using overlapping rotors ( 交叠式旋翼 )to power the vehicle. The company is testing a full-size prototype of the Hoverbike, which will most likely be used first by the police and emergency rescue teams. In New Zealand, the Martin Aircraft Company is also testing a full-size prototype of its personal flying device, called the Jetpack. It can fly for more than 30 minutes, up to 1,000 meters high and reach a speed of 74 kilometers per hour. Peter Coker is the CEO of Martin Aircraft Company. He said the Jetpack “is built around safety from the start. In his words, reliability is the most important element of it. We have safety built into the actual structure itself, very similar to a Formula One racing car.” The Jetpack uses a gasoline-powered engine that produces two powerful jet streams. Mr. Coker says it also has a parachute (降落伞) that can be used should there be an emergency. “It starts to work at very low altitude and actually saves both the aircraft and the pilot,” he adds. Mr. Coker says the Jetpack will be ready for sale soon. （1）We can learn from the passage that the Hoverbike . A. can hardly get in and out of small spaces quickly B. can fly for over 30 minutes, up to 1,000 meters high C. has been used by the police and emergency rescue teams D. can be transported quickly after being folded and packed （2）The writer uses the example of For One racing car to show that . A. the Jetpack is very safe and reliable B. the engine of the Jetpack is powerful C. the actual structure of the Jetpack is unique D. the Jetpack can reach a great speed and height （3）The underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refer s to. A. the jet stream B. the engine C. the Jetpack D. the parachute （4）What is the authors main purpose of writing the passage? A. To describe the problems of inventing flying vehicles. B. To introduce the latest development of flying vehicles. C. To show the differences between two flying vehicles. D. To advertise the two personal

(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）英语阅读理解专题练习(及答案) 一、高中英语阅读理解 1．阅读理解 Education is not a bystanders sport. Numerous researchers have shown that when students participate in classroom discussion they hold more positive attitudes toward school, and that positive attitudes promote learning. It is no coincidence that girls are more passive in the classroom discussion and score lower than boys on SATs. We found that at all grade levels in all communities and in all subject areas boys controlled classroom communication. They participated in more interactions than girls did, and their participation became greater as the year went on. Our research contradicted the traditional assumption that girls control classroom communication in reading while boys in math. We found that whether the subject was language arts and English or math and science, boys got more than their fair share of teacher attention. That teachers talk more to male students is simply because boys are more aggressive in grabbing their attention by calling out answers to the teachers' questions first. While girls sit patiently with their hands raised or keep silent. Psychologist Lisa Serbin and K.Daniel O'Leary, then at the state university of New York at stony brook studied classroom interaction at preschool level and found that teachers gave boys more attention, praised them more often and were at least twice as likely to have extended conversations with them. Years of experience have shown that the best way to learn something is to do it yourself. It is also important to give students specific and direct feedback about the quality of their work and answers. Teachers behave differently depending on whether boys or girls are active to provide answers during discussions. During classroom discussion, teachers in our study reacted to boys answers with powerful, precise and effective responses, while they often gave girls mild and unclear reactions because of their silence. Too often, girls remain in the dark about the quality of their answers. Active students receiving precise feedback are more likely to achieve academically. And they are more likely to be boys. This kind of communication game is played at work, as well as at school. As reported in numerous studies, it goes like this. Men speak more often and frequently interrupt women. Listeners recall more from male speakers than from female speakers, even when both use a similar speaking style and cover the same content. Women participate less actively in conversation. They do more smiling and gazing, and they are more often the passive by standers in professional and social conversations among peers. Women often their own statements into unsure comments. This is accomplished by using qualifiers and by adding tag question. These uncertain patterns weaken impact and signal a lack of power and influence. Only when girls are active and treated equally in the classroom will they be more likely to achieve equality in the workplace. （1）What does the authors mean when they say“Education is not a bystanders sport.”? A. Both boys and girls should do more sports. B. The girl students should be the audience to
