2017年高考英语阅读理解练习题6

阅读下列材料，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。

A new book written by a Chinese American on her super-strict parenting - "Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother" has raised fierce debates in the US.

Amy Chua is a Yale Law School professor and the mother of two teenage girls. She is the daughter of Chinese immigrants. In the Chinese culture, the tighter represents strength and power. In her book, Ms. Chua writes about how she demanded excellence from her daughters. Chua writes that her daughters, Sophia and Louisa, were never allowed to go on a date, be in a school play, watch TV or play computer games. They couldn't choose their own after-class activities or get any grade less than an A. They had to play piano or violin - and no other musical instruments.

She writes that if a Chinese child gets a B - which she says "would never happen" - there would be "a screaming, hair-tearing explosion." She describes making her 7-year-old daughter play a piano piece perfectly - yelling and not letting her leave the bench even to use the bathroom - until it was.

Many people have criticized Amy Chua. Some say her parenting methods were abusive. She even admits that her husband, who is not Chinese, objected to her parenting style. But she says that was the way her parents raised her and her three sisters.

Stacy Debroff, who has written four books on parenting, says Amy Chua’s parenting style is not limited to Chinese families. She says it represents a traditional way of parenting among immigrants seeking a better future for their children. But she also sees a risk. When children have no time to be social or to follow their own interests, they might not develop other skills that they need to succeed in life. Stacy Debroff advises parents not to just repeat the way they were raised.

Alison Lo, an assistant professor of marketing at the University of Washington's Bothell campus, said. "I don't think Amy is advocating a best practice of parenting style, or that success and achievements are critical yardsticks of a good life. But I can imagine how strong her daughters' college applications are going to be. For many parents whose dreams are seeing their kids graduating from a competitive university, Amy is sharing with the readers that it is achievable by persistent, dedicated parental guidance," Lo said. "In that sense, a young adult's giftedness can be born, or made."

Retracing one of the most important trading routes of ancient civilization, this remarkable tour aboard the luxury Golden Eagle and Shangri-La trains follows in the footsteps of such legendary figures as Alexander the Great and Marco Polo.

Crossing both Russia and China as well as some of the remotest former Soviet republics---Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan--- our journey will take in some of the most magnificent yet little-visited sights from the ancient world. Eastbound trips start in Russia’s capital Moscow, where we have plenty of time to explore. We travel on to Volgograd---better known as Stalingrad---where the Soviets turned the course of the Second World War, before heading for far remoter places that own their importance to a time much further back in history.

The Kara Kum desert is followed by the amazing 2,500 –year-old cities of Khiva and Bukhara---considered so important by UNESCO that it supported their restoration---and then Samarkand, “the Rome of the East”. Much admired by Alexander the Great, Samarkand is home to Registan Square, a spectacular open space surrounded by beautiful Islamic buildings and considered one of the most inspirational sights in central Asia. In between Khiva and Bukhara we take a two-day excursion into Turkmenistan and visit the capital city of Ashgabat, a huge modern folly(装饰性建筑) in the desert and a monument to the recently deceased President Sapamurat Turkmenbashi. We also visit the ancient city of Merv before returning to Uzbekistan.

After crossing the border into China, our tour takes in the fascinating Mogao Grottoes, the Jiayuguan fortress at the end of the Great Wall and the world-famous Terracotta Warriors, an army of almost 6,000 statues recognized as one of the greatest archaeological finds of the 20th Century. We end our journey in Beijing, the capital of modern, confident China…where the latest architecture rubs shoulders with Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City.

6.The ancient city of Merv now belongs to ______.

A. Russia

B. Soviet

C. Turkmenistan

D. Uzbekistan

7. If you take an eastbound trip, you can visit the four cities in the following order:________

A. Beijing, Samarkand, Ashgabat, Moscow

B. Moscow, Samarkand, Ashgabat, Beijing

C. Beijing, Ashgabat, Samarkand, Moscow

D. Moscow, Ashgabat, Samarkand, Beijing

8. From the passage we know that Volgograd is known for _____.

A. its hard-working people

B. a historical event

C. its long history

D. its pleasant weather

9. What’s the possible meaning of the underlined word “excursion” in the third paragraph?

A. trip

B. holiday

C. exploration

D. study

For generations of students, writing term papers has been a major source of nerves and

frustration. But for those with Internet access, relative resources are just a few links away. All one has to do is to go to the appropriate Web site, where online papers can either be purchased, ordered, or downloaded for free.

Collegiate Care Research Assistance, for instance, may do the job. Do you want to "write" a paper on "Hamlet’s irreconcilable moral dilemmas"? Simply hand over $29.75, and the essay is yours.

Some sites, such as Term Paper Emporium and Absolutely Free: Online Essays offer course papers for free. Simply press the button and download — if you find the paper you want, that is.

Students are, of course, fully aware of these web site resources, and some people worry that the Internet, once regarded as a best learning tool, could become the best aid yet for cheating.

F or teachers, the problem is figuring out whether a student’s authorship is authentic. But, as teaching assistant Jane Morrison explained, the task may not be too difficult for a careful teacher.

"Students who have gotten it off the Internet don’t look at me but look at their feet. And students who wrote every bit of it can talk about the paper very intelligently and look me in the eye," Morrison said.

Copying term papers is nothing new, but the appearance of the Internet raises the issue: Is this new technology making cheating more widespread?

A senior official Gary Handman at Berkeley doubts it. "Students who tend to cheat are going to cheat regardless of the technology.

This view was backed by Berkeley graduate student Arianne Chernock, who says that, after all, students have to decide what’s best for themselves. "It’s a question of honesty. We’re here to learn, so we’ve got to make the most of it ourselves."

And inventive teachers can make their assignments almost cheat-proof.

"If you structure the assignment in a creative way, and if students, for instance, have to transform the information into a handout, or do a drama, or write an account in first person narrative, then you may stop cheating," said library media teacher Leslie Farmer.

That kind of strategy, some experts say, will basically force students to do more than simply download their education.

10. In the past students __________________.

A. were happy about writing term papers

B. were eager to write term papers

C. considered paper writing as a joy

D. considered paper writing as a source of stress

11. What do some people worry about according to Paragraph 4?

A. They worry that students might become lazier

B. They worry that students might lose their interest in learning

C. They worry that the Internet could become the best tool for cheating

D. They worry that the Internet could become the best learning tool.

12. According to Paragraph 6, students feel _______ copying papers from the Internet.

A. guilty about

B. excited when

C. anxious about

D. uncertain about

13. What did Gary Handman argue in Paragraph 8?

A. Students tend to cheat

B. The new technology made cheating more widespread

C. The new technology helped students in the way of cheating

D. He was doubtful whether the new technology made cheating more widespread

14. Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE according to the report?

A. A careful teacher doesn’t have too much trouble finding out whether a student’s term paper is

a copy or not

B. Copying term papers is a serious issue that makes teacher weak

C. It seems that copying term papers is unavoidable for some students who tend to cheat

D. Arranging assignments in a creative way could be a solution to the problem of copying term

papers.

"Coming to the football match this afternoon?" Bill McIntosh asked 59-year-old Royce Wedding as they drank beer at the Eureka Hotel in the Australian town of Rainbow. Royce shook his head. "I promised Mom I'd burn off the weeds on one of our fields."

Bill, looking far less than his 79 years, looked outside at the heat. A light breeze was blowing from the north, making conditions perfect for the burn. But Bill felt uneasy about Royce doing the job alone. The farmer had a bad leg and walked with great difficulty.

The pair had been best of friends for 30 years, ever since the days when they traveled together from farm to farm in search of work. Now, living alone 12 miles east of town, Bill managed a living hunting foxes and rabbits. Once a fortnight he went to town to buy supplies and meet with Royce, who helped run the Wedding family's farm. "I'll give you a hand," Bill said.

The pair set off in Royce's car. Soon they came to the weed-choked 120-acre field. "Fire's the only way to get rid of this stuff," said Bill as they tied an old tire to the tow bar(牵引杆)with a 50-foot chain. Soaking the tire with gasoline, Bill put a match to it and jumped in the car.

Driving slowly from the southern edge of the field, they worked their way against the wind, leaving a line of burning weeds in their wake. Half way up the field, and without warning, the car was stuck into a hidden bank of sand.

The breeze suddenly swung around to their backs and began to gather strength. The fire line suddenly burst into a wall of flame, heading directly toward them. "Let's get out of here!" Royce said.

Desperately he tried to back the car out of the sand bank. But the wheels only sunk deeper in the soft sand.

Suddenly the fire was on them. Bill pushed open his door only to find himself thrown up into the air as, with a roar, the gasoline tank exploded and the car leapt three feet off the ground. When it crashed back down Royce found himself pinned against the steering wheel, unable to move. The car's seats and roof were now on fire.

Bill lay where he fell, out of breath. The front of his shirt, shorts, bare arms and legs were soaked in burning gasoline. Then the sight of the car in flames brought him upright with a start. "Royce!" he cried, struggling to his feet and heading for the car.

Pulling open the door, he seized Royce's arms through the smoke. "I'm stuck," Royce said. "Get yourself away!"

The fire bit at Bill's arms, face and legs, but he caught a tight hold on Royce. "I'm not leaving you here," he said.

Now Bill dug his heels into the sand and pulled as hard as he could. Suddenly he fell backward. Royce was free and out of the car. As soon as he had dragged him away he patted out the flames on Royce's body and on his own legs and arms with his bare hands.

Royce saw a second explosion rock the car, as it was eaten up by flames.“I’d be ashes now if Bill hadn't gotten me out,”he thought. Looking down, Royce was shocked by the extent of his injuries. His stomach and left hip were covered in deep burns. Worse still, his fingers were burned completely out of shape.

Lying on his back, Bill was in equally bad shape. Pieces of blackened flesh and skin hung from his forearms, hands and legs.

Bill looked across at his friend. Reading the despair clouding Royce's face, Bill said, "I'll get help. You hang on." Royce nodded, but as he watched Bill set off slowly across the blackened field, he wondered how his friend was going to walk almost two miles and get over three fences.

A lifetime spent around the tough people who make their home in the Australian bush had permanently fixed into Bill's soul two principles: never give up no matter how bad the odds and never let a friend down. Now, with every step sending pain piercing through every part of his body, he drew on those twin pillars of character. If I don't make it, Royce will die out there, he told himself over and over.

"What's the matter with that dog?" said Vicky Wedding, Royce's mom, looking out of her window. Frightened by a noise behind her, she turned to see Bill leaning against the door.

"Dear God, what happened?" she exclaimed, as Bill slid down the doorframe.

"We got caught in the fire," he whispered, barely able to speak. "Get help." Vicky sat Bill down, covered him in wet towels to ease the pain of his burns, and then picked up the phone.

Throughout the hour-and-a-half ride to the hospital in Horsham, neither of the two injured men spoke of their pain. "We should've gone to the football match," Royce said, trying to keep their spirits up. Bill smiled weakly.

Not long after Bill found himself at Government House being presented with the Bravery Medal for his courageous rescue. But the real highlight for Bill came six months after the fire, when Royce, just out of hospital, walked into the Eureka Hotel and bought him a beer.

"We made it," said Royce as they raised their glasses. "Here's to the best friend a man could have."

15. Bill and Royce started to travel together looking for work when _________.

A. Bill was in his thirties

B. Bill was in his sixties

C. Royce was a teenager

D. Royce was in his twenties

16. Danger came when the wind turned from _______.

A. north to south

B. south to north

C. east to west

D. west to east

17. The explosion of the gasoline tank ______.

A. threw Royce from the car

B. brought Bill to his senses

C. blew open the car doors

D. left Royce trapped

18. Bill learned to never give up and to never let a friend down from _______.

A. religion

B. Royce

C. bushmen

D. sports

19. Bill's best reward came when he _______.

A. received a medal

B. bought his friend a drink

C. left hospital a well man

D. was praised by his friend

20. What’s the best title of the passage?

A. Two old friends survived in the fire

C. How Bill and Royce fought the fire

D. An unforgettable experience for Bill and Royce

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

2017年高考英语阅读题第二部分：阅读理解（共两节,满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分,满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 A Attending college can be expensive, and applying to college can be costly as well. 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

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?
