2．阅读理解

Japan has made a lot of noise in recent years about removing the traditional view that women should stay at home while men go out to work. So it was shocking when, on August 7th, Tokyo Medical University (TMU), a distinguished medical school, admitted marking down the test scores of female applicants to keep the ratio of women in each class below 30%.

Their defence was that women are more likely to drop out to marry and have children. To judge female applicants to medical school purely on their academic performance would leave Japan with a shortage of doctors, they said. The admission has caused outrage.

"Doctoring has long been a male field. But it is not the only one. Discrimination is common in banks and trading firms, where stamina (耐力) and loyalty, qualities somehow associated with men, are prized," says Mari Miura, a political scientist at Sophia University. All this embarrasses a government that has promised to make women "shine". The policy seems based on the need for more workers rather than on genuine concern for women.

Shinzo Abe, the prime minister, says he wants to bring millions more women into the workforce to make up for a labour shortfall caused by its ageing and declining population. In the field of politics, the record under Mr. Abe's premiership (首相任期) is disappointing. Just two members of his 20-strong cabinet are women, including Seiko Noda, in charge of women's rights. Ms. Noda, who makes little secret of her ambition to beat Mr. Abe in a leadership contest next

month, has just published a book called "Grab the Future", her public declaration for pulling Japan into line with "global standards". She has almost no chance of winning.

（1）According to the passage, what has aroused the public's shock and rage in Japan? A. Women being more likely to drop out of school to marry and have children. B. TMU judging female applicants to medical school merely on their test score.

C. TMU putting a lower grade on female applicants to keep a low percentage of women in each class.

D. Japan tending to abandon the traditional view that women should stay at home while men go out to work.

（2）What do we know about Seiko Noda?

A. She is quite likely to win the leadership contest.

B. She never fails to show her ambition in public.

C. She is the only female member in Abe's cabinet.

D. Her newly released book "Grab the Future" is a bit hit.

（3）What does the passage mainly talk about?

A. Doctoring has long been a male field in Japan.

B. Professions like banking and trading are tailored to men.

C. Shinzo Abe performed poorly in dealing with labour shortfall.

D. Discrimination against women in careers in Japan is a big concern.

【答案】（1）C

（2）B

（3）D

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了最近的日本尤其是医药大学对女性性别的歧视，使社会一片哗然，这一性别歧视现象让日本政府陷入窘境。

（1）考查细节理解。根据第一段中的“So it was shocking when, on August 7th, Tokyo Medical University (TMU), a distinguished medical school, admitted marking down the test scores of female applicants to keep the ratio of women in each class below 30%.” 在 8 月 7 日，当声望卓著的医学院——东京医科大学承认压低了女性申请者的考试分数，以将每个班级中女生的比例维持在 30%以下时，社会一片哗然。故选C。

（2）考查细节理解。根据最后一段中的“Ms. Noda, who makes little secret of her ambition to beat Mr. Abe in a le adership contest next month, has just published a book called ‘Grab the Future’, her public declaration for pulling Japan into line with ‘global standards’”可知，野田毫不掩饰她在下个月的竞选中击败安倍的野心。她刚刚还出版了一本名为《抓住未来》的书，根据她的言行可知，她在公众场合表达自己的雄心，故选B。

（3）考查主旨大意。通读全文可知，本文主要叙述了最近日本尤其是医药大学对女性性别的歧视，使社会一片哗然，这一性别歧视现象让日本政府陷入窘境，出现了很大的问题。故选D。

【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解和主旨大意两个题型的考查，是一篇社会类阅读，考生需要准确掌握细节信息，并根据上下文进行概括和归纳，从而选出正确答案。

4．阅读理解

American college students are becoming more adventuresome as they study abroad, showing less interests in English-speaking destinations such as Great Britain and Australia and more in such countries as China, India, Argentina and Brazil.

Britain remained the most popular study destination in 2005, according to annual figures from the Institute of International Education, followed by Italy, Spain and France. But the number of American students studying in Britain and Australia descended a little, even as the number of American students abroad rose by 8%. The growth came in non-English speaking European countries and in Asia. China is now the eighth most popular destination for American students, attracting nearly 6,400 in 2005, up 35% from the number of the year before. Argentina and India saw increases of more than 50%.

Allan Goodman, president of the Institute of International Education, said that a range of factors contributed to the trend, from growing awareness of globalization after the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001, to programs such as former President Bush's National Security Language Initiative, which trains soldiers, intelligence officers and diplomats in foreign languages. “What Americans are doing is waking up and discovering there's a world out there,” he said.

Other figures showed the flow of students in the opposite direction, from foreign countries into American universities. The institute found that international enrollment (入学) in American higher education remained steady at about 565,000. The figures are of keen interest to universities, which depend on foreign students for teaching and research help, and to policy-makers, who consider it important, as future foreign leaders may be familiar with the United States. The year of 2005 saw big increases in students from South Korea, Mexico and Taiwan of China. India sends the most students and China is No.2. Other countries that show large percentage increases in the number of students sent to the US include Nepal and Vietnam, while Japan, Turkey and Malaysia saw declines. About 58% of international students in the US come from Asia.

（1）What does the underlined word “descended” in Paragraph 2 means?

A. Changed.

B. Declined.

C. Multiplied.

D. Increased.

（2）Why do more American students study in Asia?

A. They expect to get more teaching and research help.

B. They lose confidence in English-speaking countries.

C. They are afraid that terrorist attacks will happen again.

D. They prefer to explore a different world from their own.

（3）Where were most foreign students in America from in 2005?

A. China.

B. India.

C. Argentina.

D. Britain.

（4）What can we infer from the passage?

A. There were 6,400 American students studying in China in 2005.

B. Chinese students to America will overpass Indians in the future.

C. International enrollment in American higher education changed a lot.

D. Asian students account for a large part of foreign students in America.

【答案】（1）B

（2）D

（3）B

（4）D

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了不同国家的人国外留学的情况。

（1）考查词义猜测。根据第二段中的“But the number of American students studying in Britain and Australia descended a little, even as the number of American students abroad rose by 8%.”这句话的后半句的意思是“尽管美国学生在国外的人数增长了8%”，由此推知“但是在英国和澳大利亚学习的美国学生人数下降了一点，”故选B。

（2）考查推理判断。根据第三段中的“What Americans are doing is waking up and discovering there's a world out there,”可知，现在越来越多的美国学生来到亚洲是因为他们更喜欢从自己的世界去探索不同的世界。故选D。

（3）考查细节理解。根据最后一段中的“The y ear of 2005 saw big increases in students from South Korea, Mexico and Taiwan of China. India sends the most students and China is No.2.”可知，在2005年美国多数的外国学生都来自印度。故选B。

We all think plants were expected to get larger with increased carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, but changes in temperature, humidity(湿度)and nutrient availability seem to have trumped the benefits of increased carbon dioxide" said researchers from the National University of Singapore.

45 percent of the species studied now reach smaller adult sizes than they did in the past. The researchers pointed out that warmer temperatures and changing habitats, caused by climate change, are possible reasons for shrinking creatures.

" We do not yet know the mechanisms(机制)involved, or why some organism are getting smaller while others are unaffected," the researchers said. "Until we understand more, we could be risking negative consequences that we can't yet quantify."

The change is big in cold-blooded animals. Only two decades of warmer temperatures are enough to make retiles (爬行动物)smaller. An increase of only 1 degree centigrade caused nearly a 10 percent increase in metabolism(新陈代谢). Greater use of energy resulted in tiny tortoises and little lizards. Fish are smaller now too. Though overfishing has played a part in reducing numbers, experiments show that warmer temperatures also stop fish growing.

Warm-blooded animals aren't immune(免除)from the size change caused by climate change. Many birds are now smaller. Soay sheep are thinner. Red deer are weaken And polar bears are smaller, compared with historical records.

This is not the first time this has happened in Earth's history. 55 million years ago, a warming event similar to the current climate change caused bees, spiders and ants to shrink by 50 to 75 percent over several thousand years. That event happened over a longer time than the current climate change.

The speed of modem climate change could mean organisms may not respond or adapt quickly enough, especially those with long generation times climate change will be shown in the future.（1）What does the text mainly talk about?

A. Why some species become smaller.

B. How climate changes in Earth's history?

C. Climate change has many negative effects.

D. Species are becoming smaller as climate gets warmer.

（2）The underlined word "trumped" m the first paragraph probably mean_________. A. strengthened B. gained C. beaten D. equaled （3）Researchers from the National University of Singapore believe that________.

A. they have found the exact causes for creatures getting smaller

B. all the animals on the earth have become smaller

C. climate change has more negative effects on warm-blooded animals

D. increase in energy use can lead to creatures getting smaller

（4）What does the author feel about the climate change?

A. Disappointed

B. Optimistic

C. Worried

D. Shameful 【答案】（1）D

（2）C

（3）D

（4）C

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了气候变暖导致许多生物个体变小这一现象，气候变化已对浮游生物产生了有害影响，人类需要尽快采取措施。

（1）考查主旨大意。根据第一段中的“We all think plants were expected to get larger with increased carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, but changes in temperature, humidity(湿度)and nutrient availability seem to have trumped the benefits of increased carbon dioxide”可知科学家原来以为二氧化碳的增加会导致物种变大，但是气候的变化让物种反而变小。故选D。（2）考查词义猜测。根据第一段中的“We all think plants were expected to get larger with increased carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, but changes in temperature, humidity(湿度)and nutrient availability seem to have trumped the benefits of increased carbon dioxide” 可知科学家原来以为二氧化碳的增加会导致物种变大，但是气候的变化让物种变小。可知气候的变化打败了二氧化碳带来的影响。故“beat”与该词同义。选C。

（3）考查细节理解。根据第四段中的“Greater use of energy resulted in tiny tortoises and little lizards.”可知大量使用的能源导致物种体型变小。故选D。

（4）考查推理判断。根据最后一段中的“The speed of modem climate change could mean organisms may not respond or adapt quickly enough, especially those with long generation times climate change will be shown in the future.”可知作者担心现代气候变化的速度太快导致有机体无法迅速做出回应。可知作者对气候变化很担心。故选C。

When Friday came, I cleaned up, dressed up and drove to the high school gym. I chatted with my teachers and approached Mr. Gardner to thank him before leaving. Just then, the band started playing and a young girl stood up to sing. One look at and I was crazy—I had never seen such a beautiful girl!

I asked M r. Gardner who she was, and he answered, “That's Marilyn Riley, Cut Riley's daughter.” I was shocked to say the least. They lived just around the corner from me. I walked across the gym floor to introduce myself, “Hi, I'm Jack Joseph.”

Want to fit the best of London in your two-week vacation? Here is a list of the best places you must visit in London. Without visiting these, a trip to this city is no more than just incomplete.

Buckingham Palace Perhaps the most famous palace in the world, Buckingham Palace is the official London residence of the British monarch (君主). State rooms are open to visitors only during the Palace's Summer Opening, which takes place in most of August and September. However, if you are heading to the palace at a different time, you can witness "Changing of the Guard'', where the guard is changed daily from April to July, and on alternate days from August to March.

British Museum This museum showcases works from the birth of human civilization to the

modern age, and has contributions from all continents of the world. The main attractions include the much-debated Parthenon Marbles (Elgin Marbles), Mummy of Cleopatra from Thebes, and the Rosetta Stone. Entry to the museum is free.

London Eye The 32 capsules on the London Eye carry many visitors every day. Due to its 360 rotation ability, you can almost see the entire city of London, when you reach the top. Until the Shard's privately-operated deck opened in 2013, the London Eye was the tallest public viewing point.

London Zoo The world's oldest scientific zoo, the London Zoo consists of many different types of animals. This is also one of the best places for children, as you can book a VIP encounter with the animals for them. And what's more? You can also stay overnight at the zoo in Lookout Lodge.（1）When should you go if you want to visit a state room in the Buckingham Palace?

A.In April.

B.In September.

C.In July.

D.In January.

（2）Which of the following is NOT included in the British Museum?

A.Parthenon Marbles.

B.the Rosetta Stone.

C.Royal Ceremonial Dress Collection.

D.Mummy of Cleopatra from Thebes.

（3）Which statement will the author disapprove of?

A.You can visit the British Museum free of charge.

B.You can witness "Changing of the Guard" every other day in December.

C.You can see the almost entire city of London on the top of the London Eye.

D.You needn't buy a ticket for your kid to enter London Zoo.

【答案】（1）B

（2）C

（3）D

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇应用文，介绍了伦敦的几大景点——白金汉宫、大英博物馆和伦敦动物园。

（1）考查细节理解。根据第二段中的“State rooms are open to visitors only during the Palace's Summer Opening, whic h takes place in most of August and September.”可知，国事厅只在白金汉宫的夏季开放日对游客开放，开放日是在八月和九月的大多数时间。故选B。（2）考查细节理解。根据第三段中的“The main attractions include the much debated Parthenon Marbles(Elgin Marbles), Mummy of Cleopatra from Thebes, and the Rosetta Stone.”可知，主要景点包括备受争议的帕特农神庙大理石、底比斯埃及艳后和罗塞塔石碑。故选C。

（3）考查推理判断。根据最后一段中的“This is also one of the best places for children, as you can book a VIP encounter with the animals for them.”这也是孩子们可去的最好地方之一，因为你可以给他们预定一次与动物们的贵宾见面，可知，孩子们参观动物家长可提前预

定，故推测动物园并不是免票的。故选D。

【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解和推理判断两个题型的考查，是一篇介绍类阅读，考生需要准确掌握细节信息，并根据上下文进行逻辑推理，从而选出正确答案。

10．阅读理解

The Hunan Satellite TV(HNTV) show "Where are we going, Dad?" is a big hit. Many famous stars brought their children to a strange village alone, and they had to spend 72 hours with their children there. The program fully showed us a modern version of the "how to be a good father". As the young parents today are too busy to take care of their children, this new form of "Lost on the way" played by nanny Daddy and cute kids triggered(触发)a lot of people's emotional resonance(共鸣). Both the kids and their parents will find that their hearts are being drawn closer. But this kind of feeling has just proved that there is a big spiritual barrier between the modern parents and children.

The TV shows like "Children are hard to support!", "Where are we going, Dad?", "hot mom" and "cute kids" are becoming more and more popular. All of these show the new parents' confusion in children's education and the appeal for the balance between career and family.

In real life, on the one hand the young parents feel helpless because they are too busy to accompany their children under the pressures of work and life; on the other hand they continue to do so. The data collected by HNTV shows that nearly two-thirds of their audience are female, among whom 36% are aged from 25 to 34.We can imagine such a scene that one evening a young mother is watching the show with her young children, while her husband is still at work or trapped in socializing, or maybe is just playing computer games in the bedroom. The story of a child without the company of father is still going on. In fact, it is sometimes the same to mothers. In a modern family, it is often the old who take the responsibility of raising a child. The participation of mother in the children's education is also very low.

It is just this kind of confusion where the parents have gone in the modern family education, and where the parents will guide their children to go that "Where are we going，Dad?" shows us. If a child wants to grow up healthily and safely into a modern citizen with independent personality and free spirit, it is very important for him or her to follow the parents who serve as their first teacher. Maybe this is the real reason why such kind of TV programs could get hot. The truth is that children will go where their parents go; and society will go where the children go.（1）In raising a child in modern society, parents should ________.

A.play computer games with their children

B.keep their children at home to avoid socializing

C.balance well between family and career

D.break down the barrier between children and teachers

（2）Which of the following can be inferred in the passage?

A.Parents shouldn't entirely leave the education of children to the old.

B.36% of the audience of the program are female aged from 25-34.

C.The program shows us the confusion where the parents and children will go to play.

D.In a modern family it is often mothers who are responsible for raising a child.

（3）Which one is the best title of the passage?

A.Confusion Behind “Where are we going, dad?”

B.Modern Education is Important

C.Nanny Daddy and Cute Kids

D.New problems in Modern Children's Education

（4）What attitude towards modern family education does the author express in the second paragraph?

A.Proud.

B.Worried.

C.Optimistic.

D.Indifferent.

【答案】（1）C

（2）A

（3）A

（4）B

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，通过讲述热门节目“爸爸去哪儿”展示了现代家庭教育中存在的问题。

（1）考查细节理解。根据第二段中的“All of these show the new parents' confusion in children's education and the appeal for the balance between career and family.”可知父母必须处理好事业与家庭之间的冲突，故选C。

（2）考查推理判断。根据第三段中的“In a modern family, it is often the old who take the responsibility of raising a child.”可知父母把养育孩子的责任交给了自己的父母，也就是爷爷奶奶，故选A。

（3）考查主旨大意。本文讲述爸爸去哪儿，这个电视节目取得了巨大的成功，得到大家的关注，从而如何教育孩子也就成为当前重要的话题，故选A。

（4）考查推理判断。第二段提到孩子很难养，辣妈，潮童，这些流行词汇，所有的这些节目反应家长在平衡家庭与事业之间的矛盾，故作者的态度是很担忧的，所以选B。

【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解，推理判断和主旨大意三个题型的考查，是一篇教育类阅读，要求考生在捕捉细节信息的基础上，进一步根据上下文的逻辑关系，进行分析，推理，概括和归纳，从而选出正确答案。

大学英语B 阅读理解答案

阅读理解 B 42、Martin Luther King was a black minister, who became a great leader of the civil rights movement in the 1950s and 1960s. King was born on January 15, 1929 in Atlanta, Georgia. When he was young, he was strongly influenced by Thoreau and Indian leader Mahatma Gandhi's idea of non-violent resistance. Having received a Ph. D (Doctor of Philosophy) from Boston University, he became a political and religious leader of the non-violent civil relights movement in 1955. On August 28, 1963, he led over 250,000 Americans on a march in Washington D.C. to fight for the Civil Rights Law to guarantee equality for all people, and delivered his best known speech "I Have a Dream" before the Lincoln Memorial. The "dream" is a dream of brotherly love and equality for the Black and White. Thus, he was awarded the Nobel Prize for peace in 1964, but he was murdered four years later. Though he died, he was greatly respected and loved by the Americans, both the white and the black. By vote of Congress in 1968, the third Monday of every January is now a federal holiday in Luther King's honor. He lives in people's hearts forever. (1)、Martin Luther King was murdered when he was 39 years old. A：T B：F 答案：A (2)、Martin Luther King was a black minister only. A：T B：F 答案：B (3)、Martin Luther King's Day has been a federal holiday for more than 40 years. A：T B：F 答案：A (4)、The underlined word "delivered" in the second paragraph could be replaced by "gave".

He is going to sell it because it is haunted (闹鬼的). He told me that he could not go to sleep one night because he heard a strange noise coming from the bar. The next morning, he found that the doors had been blocked by chairs and the furniture had been moved. Though Mr. James had turned the lights off before he went to bed, they were on in the morning. He also said that he had found five empty whisky bottles which the ghost (鬼) must have drunk the night before. When I suggested that some villagers must have come in for a free drink, he shook his head. The villagers have told him that they will not accept it even if he gives it away. (1)、Mr. James was the owner of the public house. A：T B：F 答案：A (2)、Mr. James had not turned off the lights that night. A：T B：F 答案：B (3)、Mr. James built the house. A：T B：F 答案：B (4)、Mr. James found sixty empty bottles. A：T B：F 答案：B (5)、The writer of the passage believes Mr. James' story. A：T B：F 答案：B 44、Great changes have been made in family life because of science and industry. In the past, when more Americans lived on farms, the typical family had many children. In a farm family, parents and their children often lived with grandparents. Often, too, uncles and aunts lived nearby. But when industry became more important than agriculture in American life, families became smaller because industry requires workers who are ready and able to move off the land and to move again whenever necessary. And large families can not be moved from place to place as smaller families can. So, at present people tend to have smaller families. In the future, because of industrialization, a typical family will be required to move even more often than now, so families will be even smaller. The typical family may remain childless and consists only of a man and a woman. A small number of families may take child raising as their chief work. At the same time they may also raise other people's children, leaving those families free to move from job to job. (1)、The passage discusses influence of science and industry on American families. A：T B：F 答案：A (2)、Families of the past, the present and the future are described in the passage. A：T B：F 答案：A (3)、People no longer want to have children. A：T B：F 答案：B (4)、Grandparents will take the chief responsibility of raising children in the future. A：T B：F 答案：B (5)、Large families cannot fit in with a highly industrialized society. A：T B：F 答案：A 45、My husband had just bought a new washing machine for me. I decided to use it and I washed a lot of things. Everything worked well, but I found one of my husband's socks missing. I looked everywhere for it, but I couldn't find it anywhere. The next morning, I got ready for school as usual. When the bell rang, the students came in. I greeted them first and then told them what we were going to do that day. When I turned around to write on the blackboard, the class broke out a roar! They laughed and laughed. They laughed so much, in fact, that I was afraid the headmaster would be into seeing all this. I asked the class to stop, but the more I talked, the more they laughed. I decided to pay no attention to them and I continued to write on the blackboard. When I did this, they roared even more. Finally, the teacher who had the room next to mine came in to see what all the laughter was about. When he came in, he started laughing, too!

小琼在俄克拉荷马州一座小城执教，借住在一对老夫妇家中。小城只有一家沃尔玛超市。用男主人加里的话说，“全镇人几乎互相都认识”。这个四川姑娘每次出门都会被当地人认出来，很多人都会友善地同她打招呼。 文化交流归根结底是人的交流、感情的交融。小琼说，自己在2008年汶川大地震中不幸失去双亲，很长时间难以从悲伤中走出来，但这对美国老夫妇的悉心照顾、小镇居民的热情让她真切感受到人间真情。 和其他汉语教师一样，小琼也配备了介绍中国文化的“资源包”，内容从神话故事、历史名人到古典名着不一而足。不过，在和孩子们的接触中，她本身就是当地人了解中国的一个“资源包”。“你们也有手机么?”“家中有电视吗?”一个个问题背后是美国孩子对中国的不了解。当然，在打开“资源包”的同时也不可避免引发价值观碰撞。“美国老师不加班、中国老师爱加班”“中国人爱储蓄”，甚至小琼想起万里之外家人时充盈的泪水，都让孩子们乃至大人们真切地感知着“中国人”的家庭观念，碰撞后带来的是了解和欣赏。 “我们觉得她是最好的‘中国制造’。”加里对记者幽默道，“如果你们国家要派出中国文化大使，选我们的琼准没错。” 当记者在世界各地问起：“提起中国文化，您会想到什么?”在赤道边春城内罗毕，中非关系专业在读研究生瑟库拉这样告诉记者：“孔子，我会想到他。我上过不少有关中国外交、非中关系的课，每次遇到理解不了的思想时，我们就开玩笑说‘这是孔子的思想’，每次辩论课上找论据时，我们最后总会找到‘孔子曰……’。西方也有很多先贤，但中国先贤似乎我只了解孔子。” 在内罗毕CBD地区一家大排档餐厅，28岁的顾客贝利对记者说：“我通过在内罗毕工作的中国人了解中国文化。我觉得要想让肯尼亚人了解中国文化，最重要的是生活在本地的中国人的

大学英语一题库阅读理解_试卷_答案

大学英语一阅读理解 一、阅读理解（共505题,共101分） 1. Few laws are so effective that you can see results just days after they take effect. But in the nine days since the federal cigarette tax more than doubled—to $1. 01 per pack—smokers have jammed telephone “quit lines” acro ss the country seeking to kick the habit. This is not a surprise to public health advocates. They’ve studied the effect of state tax increases for years, finding that smokers, especially teens, are price sensitive. Nor is it a shock to the industry, which fiercely fights every tax increase. The only wonder is that so many states insist on closing their ears to the message. Tobacco taxes improve public health, health, they raise money and most particularly, they deter people from taking up the habit as teens, which is when nearly all smokers are addicted. Yet the rate of taxation varies widely. In Manhattan, for instance, which has the highest tax in the nation, a pack of Marlboro Light Kings cost ＄10.06 at one drugstore Wednesday. Charleston, S, C., where the 7-cent-a-pack tax is the lowest in the nation. The price was $4. 78. The influence is obvious.
