You don?t know about me if you haven?t read a book called The Adventures of Tom Sawyer．Mr．Mark Twain wrote the book and most of it is true．In that book robbers stole some money and hid it in a very secret place in the woods．But Tom Sawyer and I found it，and after that we were rich．We got six thousand dollars each-all gold．

In those days I never had a home or went to school like Tom and all the other boys in St Petersburg．Pop was always drunk，and he moved around a lot，so he wasn?t a very good father．But it didn?t matter to me．I slept in the streets or in the woods，and I could do what I wanted，when I wanted．It was a fine life．

When we got all the money，Tom and I were famous for a while．Judge Thatcher，who was an important man in our town，kept my money in the bank for me．And the Widow Douglas took me to live in her house and said I could be her son．She was very nice and kind, but it was a hard life because I had to wear new clothes and be good all the time．

In the end，I put on my old clothes and ran away．But Tom came after me and said that I had to go back，and that I could be in his gang of robbers．So，1 went back，and the widow cried and I had to put on those new clothes again．I didn?t like it at all．Her sister，Miss Watson，lived there too．She was always saying，…Don?t put your feet there，Huckleberry?，and…Don?t do that，Huckleberry．?It was terrible．

21．Which is right according to paragraph l?

A．You can know“me”though you haven?t read the book．

B．It was very easy for“me” to get the money．

C．The book told the re aders how“I”became rich．

D．The robbers hid 6，000 dollars in the secret place．

22．What happened to“my” life when we got the money?

A．“I” lived a happy life at the end． B. “I” couldn?t live a life that“I”wanted．

C．“I” was not concerned by others．D．“I”couldn?t live a stable life．

23．What can we infer from the passage?

When I first started growing my own fruit and vegetables in containers，I found information about how，when and what to feed plants in containers surprisingly hard to come by. Perhaps this isn?t surprising．Crop nutrition is never going to be a sexy subject．At its best it?s a complicat ed and slightly smelly one．Still，if you want your plants to grow well in containers，you need to put a bit of thought into feeding them．You can devote a lifetime to learning about crop nutrition．But I?ve found a little knowledge can go a long way．

Plants need a mix of nutrients，just as humans need to consume a mix of protein，fat，carbohydrate，minerals and vitamins．They particularly need nitrogen(N)for leaf growth，hosphorus(P)for root growth，and potassium(K)for fruit growth．All plants need all three，but leafy crops particularly need nitrogen，and fruit crops won?t develop well without enough potassium．They also need a wide range of other nutrients，often in tiny quantities．I think of these as the equivalent of the vitamins and minerals we need to keep us healthy．Finally，plants need bacteria in the soil to break it down and release food to their roots，just as humans need bacteria to

digest food in our stomach．

Most growing mixes you can buy in garden centers only contain enough nutrients for six weeks? growth. So f or best results，you need the right fertilizer(rich in either nitrogen or potassium)and you need to make sure the plant has enough vitamins and minerals and that there is plenty of soil life in your pots．

24. What does the underlined word“this” in Paragraph 1 refer to?

A．to grow fruit and vegetables in containers

B．to find information about growing fruit and vegetables

C．to feed fruit and vegetables in containers

D．to get information about feeding plants in containers

25. If you want to grow tomatoes，which nutrient will you use more? A．Nitrogen．B．Phosphorus．C．Potassium．D．Vitamin．

26．According to the writer，which will be needed if you want to get the best results?

a．the right fertilizer b．enough vitamins and minerals

c．plenty of soil life d. protein，fat and carbohydrate

A．abc B．bcd．C．acd．D．abd．

27．What?s the main purpose of the passage?

A．To tell people most compost in garden centers contains few nutrients．

B．To tell people to dedicate a lifetime to learning about crop nutrition．

C．To tell people all plants need nitrogen，phosphorus，and potassium．

D．To tell people some information about feeding plants in containers．

Climate researchers met recently in Cameroon to talk about threats to Africa?s land a nd animals．They said they believe the continent may lose a large number of its animal and plant species by the end of this is century. They blame the expected losses on the warming of earth，population growth and unrestricted development．

The researchers represent 20 African，American and European universities．They say countries in south of the Saharan desert are losing forest faster than any place on earth．Wood companies are cutting down trees to meet growing demand from China，Europe and the United States．

The population is growing at 3 percent per year．There are now homes，factories and farms on land that once was forest．Climate change also continues to threaten species．

Thomas Smith is the director of the Center for Tropical Research at the University of California．“With a 1.5 degree rise in global temperature，Africa may lose 30 percent of its animals and plants．And unfortunately with the increase in CO2 that has been now judged to be up to three degrees in terms of rising global temperatures-that means we may lose 40 percent of all animals in Africa by the end of the century，”said Smith．

The African chimpanzee is one such animal at risk．Mary Katherine Gonder studies chimpanzees in the Congo Basin．She says the forest home is disappearing．She also says hunters continue to kill the animals to sell as food．“What will happen over the next 20 years，the distribution of those chimpanzees will change．Their habitat(栖居地)will change fundamentally and they will no longer be around．The habitat for those chimpanzees will be gone，”said Gonder．Thomas Smith of the University of California says it?s possible to develop Africa and care for the environment at the same time．“With these challeng es，we need to develop green

economies．For example，we are working with parties here to develop new ways of providing green jobs，for example areas that you can preserve，like forests，and at the same time produce crops that are appropriate for people to sell a nd to eat.” said Smith.

28. According to the first paragraph，which is not the cause of the expected losses?

A. The earth becomes warm.

B. Population grows quick.

C. Development is not limited.

D. Hunting becomes fierce.

29. Why are countries in south of the Saharan desert losing forest faster than any place on earth?

A. Climate change continues to threaten forests.

B. People there cut trees to make fire.

C. Trees are being cut to satisfy great countries? increasing need.

D. Wood companies want to help China，Europe and the USA.

30. What can we infer from Gonder?s words in Paragraph 5?

A. Chimpanzees will be gone in the next 20 years.

B. Chimpanzees?habitat may disappear one day.

C. The forest home of Chimpanzees has already disappeared.

D. The African chimpanzee is one such animal at risk.

31. What?s the main idea of the last paragraph?

A. We need to balance nature and people?s needs.

B. It?s impossible to develop Africa and preserve nature.

C. We are facing a very large number of challenges.

D. It?s mo re important to provide for economic needs.

D

A Robot Fish has been developed by National University of Singapore?s researchers from the Department of Electrical &Computer Engineering. This robot fish has movements which have been inspired by the movements of the carp(鲤鱼).

There are various purposes that it can be used for. It can help in underwater archaeology(考古学). For example，it can enter a sunken city where human divers cannot enter. Just like a fish，it can also look at all the corners of particular wreckage. This robot can also be used for general purposes such as detection of leakages in a pipeline or for laying down communication cables across oceans. It also has possible military uses.

In order to copy carp movements，Mr.Fan studied the movements of the fish for around 3 month. He studied all the different movements of carp using different cameras and then converted these movements mathematically to transfer this data to the robot using many actuators(驱动器).

Professor Xu commented on the robot that the current models that copy fish movements are capable only of 2D movements which limits their capability as they are not able to dive into water. He said that his model is the first model with 3D movements which allows it to dive as well as float with the help of its fins，just as a normal fish would do. Hence，this fish model robot has much greater movement capability. It would be much harder for enemies to detect as compared to traditional ones when used for military purposes.

The researches want to make their robot fish even smaller，more realistic while adding more sensors such as GPS and video camera to it. This will improve its autonomous 3D movement. They are also planning to test the fish by giving it more difficult tasks such as detecting various objects.

32. The author gave an example in paragraph2______ .

A. to introduce the Robot Fish can help in underwater archaeology.

B. to show the Robot Fish can be used for general purposes

C. to show the Robot Fish can lay down communication cables across oceans

D. to tell us the Robot Fish has possible military uses

33. Which is NOT true about the 3D Robot Fish?

A. It is capable of diving into water.

B. It cannot dive into water

C. It can float using its fins.

D. It is difficult to detect.

34. What?s the ma in idea of the last paragraph?

A. The researchers will give the robot more difficult tasks.

B. The researches want to make their robot smaller.

C. The researchers are going to test the robot.

D. The researches plan to improve the robot.

35. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?

A. First Robot Fish with Autonomous 3D Movement used widely

B. First Robot Fish with Autonomous 3D Movement treading the ocean

C. First Robot Fish with Autonomous 3D Movement created in Singapore

D. First Robot Fish with Autonomous 3D Movement?s general purposes

高考英语阅读理解训练50篇

阅读理解训练50篇（1） 1 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 possibly cancer. Anger is a normal emotion that we all feel from time to time. Some people express anger openly in a calm reasonable way. Others burst with anger, and scream and yell.But other people 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 hor- mones (荷尔蒙).They speed the heart rate, raise blood pressure, or 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 t hat _________.

高考英语阅读理解专项训练100篇 (名师传授解题技巧+实战练习，值得下载) 一、阅读理解解题技巧 阅读理解题是考查学生对活的语言材料的理解能力，即通过阅读材料获得信息的能力。具体说来，阅读理解能力测试的主要要求是：（1）掌握所读材料的主旨大意，以及用以说明主旨大意的事实和细节；（2）既理解具体事实，也理解抽象的概念；（3）既理解字面意思，也理解深层含义，包括作者的态度、意图等；（4）既理解某句、某段的意义，也理解全篇的逻辑关系，并能根据文章进行推理和判断；（5）既能根据材料所提供的信息去理解，也能结合中学生应有的常识去理解。根据这几项能力测试的要求，试题中常采用如下几种题型：事实询问题、推理判断题、数据推算题、识图解意题和主旨大意题。根据这一测试要求和题型设计，答题时可以采取如下解题技巧和对策。 1．首先解题时要充满自信。由于平时有些同学对做阅读理解时存在一种畏惧心理，因此考试做题时心理就难免会产生紧张感，特别是阅读时再遇到几个生词就头脑发胀，从而使自己的思路更加模糊不清。其实这是完全没有必要的，因为阅读中遇到几个生词或几个难以理解的句子是常有的事，也是正常现象。因为按大纲要求，试卷中允许有不超过3%的生词，只要认真分析，仔细阅读，这些生词和句子很可能并不影响你的解题。所以答题之前首先要有必胜的信心。 2．扫读全文，理解全文主旨大意。拿到一篇文章，首先要快速扫读全文，虽为扫读，但不可漫不经心，阅读时也应聚精会神，力求可能多地获取材料信息，只是这次遇到生词和难句先不必去处理，不要因纠缠文中的个别生词和难句而影响了对全文的主旨大意的了解。

3．对症下药，各个击破。了解全文的大概意思之后，再把短文的问题简单看一遍，弄懂题意，然后带着问题再去寻读全文。这次阅读过程中要善于抓文章中的关键词句。寻读也就是迅速的查找需要了解的信息，是为某些特定的问题而阅读，因此阅读时要有较强的针对性，对与问题有关的数据，词句等仔细阅读，认真理解，同时结合不同考查内容的题型，采取如下解题对策： （1）事实询问题：这类试题通常是以疑问词what，who，when，where，why，how 等引起的特殊问句，就文章中某一词语、某一句子、某一段落或某一具体细节和事实进行提问。解答此类试题首先要弄清题目和每一个选项的含义，然后按题目要求寻找与之相关的细节，正确估计答案来源，同时注意题目和文章中的暗示作用。特别注意辨别各种信息，确认各种信息。 （2）推理判断题：此题要求我们通过表面文字信息去推测文章隐含的意思，对文章的发展情节及作者的态度、意图等做出合乎逻辑的的推理判断。这种题要求我们在阅读时要抓住文章的主题和细节、从分析文章的结构入手，根据上下文的内在联系，充分挖掘文章的深层含义。对暗含在文章中事件的因果关系，人物的动机，以及作者未言明的倾向、态度、意图、观点进行合乎逻辑的推理、分析和判断。同时善于抓住文中实质性的东西，不要被带假象的表面信息或似是而非的东西所迷惑。并且注意推断作者态度时要力求从作者的态度、观点去思考，切勿想当然，凭个人的观点习惯看法来回答的问题。 （3）数据推算题：此题要求我们就文章提供的数据，以及数据与文章中其他信息的关系做出计算和推断，然后做出选择。这就要求我们解题时，要在理解好题意的前提下去对与数据有关的信息认真分析，若数据信息较多，还要注意弄清数据之间的关系，同时分清有用与无用信息，最终作出正确判断。 （4）主旨大意题：此题用以考查我们对文章主题或中心思想的领会和理解能力。在解答此类试题时要注意每段的中心句，抓住每一段的主题句。一般主题句都用来表达一段主旨大意，因此，只要找准每段的主题句，文章的中心思想和文章的最佳标题也就不难确定了。

高考英语阅读理解专项训练及答案及解析

高考英语阅读理解专项训练及答案及解析 一、高中英语阅读理解 1．阅读理解 Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is gaining global popularity. According to a government white paper, TCM has been introduced in 183 countries and regions around the world. Westerners' understanding of TCM, however, may be limited to acupuncture, cupping and massage(针灸，拔罐和按摩). For instance, the purple, injury-like marks left on U. S. swimmer Michael Phelps，back from cupping for the purpose of relaxing his muscles and reducing pain became the center of attention during the Rio Olympics in 2016. As a matter of fact, Chinese herbs play a more important role in getting rid of diseases and keeping the body in good condition in the TCM treatment system than physical treatment. It is therefore disheartening to know that while 103 World Health Organization member countries have given approval to the practice of acupuncture, not many recognize Chinese herbal medicine. TCM falls far behind Western medicine owing partly to the slow development of Chinese herbs. Herbs are made into pills, powder and soup, and the kind of herbs used, their quality and quantity, and the processing of the ingredients (原材料) jointly determine the effectiveness of the prescription. Compared with Western medicine, which has standardized drug production processes and treatment methods, TCM lacks standardization, with the chemical composition and functions of its medicines being unclear and their effects being unstable. Fortunately, standardization has improved in recent decades, with an increasing number of factories producing patented TCM drugs. Another factor that has prevented the development of TCM prescription drugs is the lack of creativity. While Western medicine-making companies come up with new products every year, TCM drug producers tend to make medicines according to prescriptions handed down from the past. Chinese chemist Tu Youyou's winning the 2015 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for her research into malaria (疟疾) treatment may drive creativity to some extent in China's TCM industry. However, the current state of affairs cannot be changed within a short time. （1）Why does the author mention the example of Michael Phelps? A. Because he was injured in his swimming. B. Because cupping is a kind of important TCM treatment. C. Because westerners know a little about TCM. D. Because westerners attach great importance to TCM. （2）Why don't some member countries of WHO recognize Chinese herbal medicine? A. Because Chinese herbs can get rid of diseases. B. Because they only approve the practice of acupuncture. C. Because Western medicine is more effective. D. Because medicine made out of Chinese herbs develops slowly. （3）Compared with Western medicine, what is the weak point of TCM in Paragraph 4? A. The methods of planting herbs. B. The effectiveness of prescription. C. Lacking in standardization. D. Its stable functions.

(英语)高三英语阅读理解专项训练及答案

（英语）高三英语阅读理解专项训练及答案 一、高中英语阅读理解 1．阅读理解 The setting was a packed gymnasium just before the start of a game against another school. There were five girls who were members of the Danville High School basketball team—all of them starters. They were not in uniform to play that night and would not be on the team for the rest of this season. They were there to admit their breaking of team rules. They were there to support their coach's decision to take them off the team. They were there to let the town know there was a problem in their little community that needed to be addressed. And they did it with sincere regret rather than defensiveness. While the school had been out for the New Year's holiday, the five girls had gone to the party with several of their friends. There was alcohol there. And they all drank some. Coach Rainville has a zero tolerance rule on drugs and alcohol for her members though it was a hard decision to make. When classes resumed and accounts of holiday parties were shared, rumors about the five girls began closing in on them. The coach said she couldn't back down on her rules. And the players—two junior students and three senior students—agreed. That night in the gym was part of their public support of the coach's decision. “We hope you will understand that we are not bad kids. What we did was definitely not worth it. We hope this event will make everyone realize that there is a big drug and alcohol problem in our community,” one of the senior students said, “And if you work with us to try to solve this problem, you will help us feel that we have not been thrown off our basketball team for nothing.” The five left the floor to deafening applause. The team may not win another game this year. But they've learnt something about personal responsibility, the effect of one's action on others, and honesty that will serve them well throughout life. （1）It can be inferred from the passage that the five girls who were kicked off the team were ________. A. very good players on the team B. addicted to alcohol and drugs C. three junior students and two senior students D. scolded by their parents for drinking alcohol （2）What did the girls do to support their coach's decision? A. They didn't fight for Danville High School any more. B. They all gave speeches to apologize in the local press. C. They admitted their mistake in public in the gymnasium. D. They would never drink any alcohol throughout their life. （3）Which word best describes the coach Rainville? A. Indifferent. B. Strict. C. Stubborn. D. Cruel. （4）Which would be the best title for the passage? A. Growing up with pain B. A bad mistake C. Team rules are everything D. Basketball girls in high school 【答案】（1）A

2019高考语文阅读理解训练题：植物的花香 阅读下面的短文，完成12—17题。 (1)植物的花香有着很多作用。 (2)植物的花有香味是为了传宗接代。植物花朵为了引诱昆虫前来 授粉，不但表现各种艳丽夺目的色彩，还会散发各种迷人的花香。于 是引来蜂蝶竞相采蜜，正所谓“蜂争粉蕊蝶分香”。结果，花粉黏附 在昆虫的身上，随着昆虫的飞行迁移而四处落户安家了。 (3)香花内部有一个专门制造香味的“工厂”——油细胞，这个 “工厂”里的产品就是令人心醉的芳香油。这种芳香油除了散发香味，吸引昆虫传粉外，它的蒸气还能够减少花瓣中水分的蒸发，形成一层“保护衣”，使植物免受白天的强烈日晒和夜晚的寒气侵袭。 (4)植物的花的香味除了有益于自身的生长繁衍，绝大部分还有益 于人类。香气能刺激人的呼吸中枢，从而促动人体吸进氧气，排出二 氧化碳。因为大脑供氧充足，所以能使人保持较长时间旺盛的精力。 此外，香味信息能够深刻地留在人的记忆中，刺激嗅觉，使人的记忆 增强。 (5)利用花香来保健和防病，在我国有着悠久的历史。古代医圣华佗，曾用丁香等制成小巧玲珑的香囊，悬挂在室内，用以防治肺结核、吐泻等疾病。古代民间把金银花放入枕内，用来去头痛，降血压，同 时还有消炎止咳的作用。 (6)不同的花香，能引起人们的不同感受。如桂花的香味使人疲 劳顿消；菊花的香味使人思维清晰。不过，事情都是一分为二的。有 些花香也会给人带来副作用。如百合、兰花的浓香，会引起眩晕和瞬 时的迟钝。 12．给加点字注音。 繁衍瞬时

13．本文的说明内容是。 14．第(4)段说花香“有益于人类”是从哪两个方面说的？(每方面六个字以内) 答：① ② 15．第(4)段画线的句子在文中起的作用是。 16．植物的花香“绝大部分还有益于人类”中的“绝大部分”为什么不能删掉？ 答： 17．第(5)段中列举了两个例子，目的是为了说明

高考英语阅读理解练习题及答案及解析

高考英语阅读理解练习题及答案及解析 一、高中英语阅读理解 1．阅读理解 I was born on the 17th of November 1828, in the village of Nam Ping, which is about four miles southwest of the Portuguese Colony (殖民地) of Macao, and is located on Pedro Island lying west of Macao, from which it is separated by a channel of half a mile wide. As early as 1834, an English lady, Mrs. Gutzlaff, wife of a missionary to China, came to Macao. Supported by the Ladies' Association in London for the promotion of female education in India and the East, she immediately took up the work of starting a girls' school for Chinese girls, which was soon followed by the opening of a boys' school. Mrs. Gutzlaff's comprador(买办) happened to come from my village and was actually my father's friend and neighbor. It was through him that my parents heard about Mrs. Gutzlaff's school and it was doubtlessly through his influence and means that my father got me admitted into the school. It has always been a mystery to me why my parents should put me into a foreign school, instead of a traditional Confucian school, where my big brother was placed. Most certainly such a step would have been more suitable for Chinese public opinion, taste, and the wants of the country, than to allow me to attend an English school. Moreover, a Chinese belief is the only avenue in China that leads to political promotion, influence, power and wealth. I can only guess that as foreign communication with China was just beginning to grow, my parents hoped that it might be worthwhile to put one of their sons to learning English. In this way he might become an interpreter and have a more advantageous position to enter the business and diplomatic world. I am wondering if that influenced my parents to put me into Mrs. Gutzlaff's School. As to what other sequences it has eventually brought about in my later life, they were entirely left in the hands of God. （1）How was the author admitted to Mrs. Gutzlaff's school? A. Through his father's friend's help. B. Through his own efforts to exams. C. Through his father's request. D. Through Mrs. Gutzlaff's influence. （2）Why did the author's parents put him into an English school？ A. An English school was more influential. B. Foreign trade with China was developing fast. C. It met with Chinese public opinion. D. He could become a successful interpreter. （3）What did the author think of his parents' decision to put him into an English school? A. It was skeptical. B. It was mysterious. C. It was thoughtful. D. It was wonderful.【答案】（1）A （2）D （3）B 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，小时候父亲送作者去英语学校而不是中文学校，并分析了具体原因。 （1）考查细节理解。根据第三段中的“Mrs. Gutzlaff's comprador(买办) happened to come from my village and was actually my father's friend and neighbor. It was through him that my parents heard about Mrs. Gutzlaff's school”可知，作者是通过父亲朋友的帮助进入到Mrs.
