DThe connection between people and plants has long been the subject of scientific research. Recent studies have found positive effects. A study conducted in Youngstown,Ohio,for example, discovered that greener areas of the city experienced less crime. In another,employees were shown to be 15% more productive when their workplaces were decorated with houseplants.The engineers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology(MIT)have taken it a step further changing the actual composition of plants in order to get them to perform diverse,even unusual functions. These include plants that have sensors printed onto their leaves to show when they’re short of water and a plant that can detect harmful chemicals in groundwater. "We’re thinking about how we can engineer plants to replace functions of the things that we use every day,"explained Michael Strano, a professor of chemical engineering at MIT.33. What is the function of the sensors printed on plant leaves by MIT engineer?A. To detect plants’ lack of waterB. To change compositions of plantsC. To make the life of plants longer.D. To test chemicals in plants.教师版:(正确答案:A )一、词汇重点connection n. 联系subject n. 主题,实验对象productive adj. 能生产的;多产的;富有成效的composition n. 作文,作曲,作品;[材] 构成;合成物;成分diverse adj. 不同的,多种多样的sensor n. 传感器detect vt. 察觉;发现;探测engineer v. 设计,策划二、句子结构分析The engineers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology(MIT)have taken it a step further changing the actual composition of plants in order to get them to perform diverse,even unusual functions.主干:The engineers have taken it a step further .分析:at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology(MIT)介词短语作后置定语,changing the actual composition of plants现在分词短语作状语, in order to get them to perform diverse,even unusual functions 不定式作目的状语。
(完整word)高考英语阅读理解细节理解类型题1.题型特点与命题方式所谓细节题,是指原文提到了某事物、现象或理论,题干针对原文具体叙述本身发问。
一般包括直接理解题(在原文中可直接找到答案,常用who, what, when, where, why和how等提问。
)、语义转化题(需要将题目信息与原文相关信息进行语义上的转换,两者存在表达上的差异,有时需要进行加工或整理后方能得出结论)、数字计算题、排列顺序题、图表图画题等抓住文段中的事实和细节是做好该题型的关键,也是做好其他类型问题的基础。
这类题型的题干常为:When / Where did the story happen?Which of the following statements is (NOT) correct?Which of the following statements is (NOT) mentioned in the passage?Which is the right order of the events given in the passage?All the statements are true EXCEPT…该题型几乎都可以在文章中直接找到与答案有关的信息,或是其变体。
所以,搜查信息在阅读中非常重要,它包括理解作者在叙述某事时使用的具体事实、数据、图表等细节信息。
在一篇短文里大部分篇幅都属于这类围绕主体展开的细节。
做这类题一般采用寻读法,即先读题,然后带着问题快速阅读短文,找出与问题有关的词语或句子,再对相关部分进行分析对比,找出答案。
2.解题思路与应试技巧细节题是针对文中某个细节、某句话或某部分具体内容设置问题,正确答案的根据一定可以在原文中找到,即原文的改写往往成为正确选项。
通常细节题的正确选项有以下特征:(1)对原文句子中的关键词进行替换。
把原文中的一些词换成意义相近的词,成为正确选项。
(2)词性或者语态的变化。
考点分类练(二)细节理解题——间接信息类A(2021·山东日照一模)A Bangladeshi boy has won the International Children’s Peace Prize for his work to fight cyberbullying(网络欺凌) in his country.The prize winner, Sadat Rahman, promised to keep fighting online abuse until it no longer exists.“The fight against cyberbullying is like a war, and in this war I am a fearless fighter,” Sadat Rahman said during a ceremony. He added,“If everybody keeps supporting me, then together we will win this battle against cyberbullying.”Rahman developed a mobile phone application that provides education about online bullying and a way to report relevant cases. He said he began his work on the project after hearing the story of a 15-year-old girl who took her own life as a result of cyberbullying.“I will not stop until we receive no more cases through the app,” Rahman said at the ceremony.The award comes with a fund of over $118,000, which is invested by the KidsRights Foundation. The group chooses projects to support the causes that are closely linked to the winner’s work.Past well-known winners of the prize include Pakistani human rights activist Malala Yousafzai and Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg. And the students who organised the March for Our Lives event in 2018 after a deadly mass shooting at their school in the American state of Florida also won the prize.Yousafzai praised Rahman’s work during the ceremony. She spoke through video conferencing.“All children have the right to be protected from violence no matter if it is physical or mental, offline or online,” she said.“Cyberbullying is a violation of that right.”1.What does Sadat Rahman devote himself to?A.Battling online violence.B.Helping poor children.C.Being a brave fighter.D.Removing school bullying.2.What caused Sadat Rahman to start his project?A.People’s lack of education.B.His own experience of being bullied.C.A girl’s death from cyberbullying.D.The wide use of mobile phone apps.3.What is paragraph 5 mainly about?A.The March for Our Lives event.B.Human rights activists in the world.C.A horrible school shooting.D.Some previous winners of the prize.4.What can we infer from Yousafzai’s words?A.Rahman’s efforts have paid off.B.Cyberbullying should be got rid of.C.All children have the right to fight against violence.D.Children are faced with physical and mental bullying.B(2021·广东肇庆三模)True, people remember what you wear. After a social event, we all remember the woman in red, or the man with the top hat. But in terms of making a good impression, being memorable is not just about novelty or fashion, but attraction, both physical and emotional.In a 2020 study, Andre Ndobo found people tended to remember the extremes: both attractive and unattractive faces. He acknowledged that one suggested explanation was that both are characterised by distinctive features that promote facial recognition when compared with faces of average attractiveness. But while distinctiveness is memorable, beauty is skin-deep. Accordingly, the way you are remembered by others is often not about what you wear and how you look but about the way you make people feel.Professional interaction can create positive personal memories. Adrie A.Koehler, in a piece entitled “In the Eye of the Beholder” (2017), found that when asked to recall their best learning experience, many students discussed a memorable teacher. What made the teachers memorable? According to the students, memorable qualities included not only teaching styles, but also interpersonal skills and positive qualities such as a sense of humour.We can relate to the results of this study when recalling people who are memorable in our own lives. They are not always people who we believed to be the smartest or most believed, but often those who made us feel the most comfortable, and who were most interested in us. Sincere interest is uniquely attractive. Not only will you remember what someone said, but they will also remember you.Regardless of what we wear or how we look, we are always naturally more appealing and approachable when we focus on others and when we are genuine rather than simply sociable. Remember that, and others will remember you.5.Why is an unattractive face remembered according to Andre Ndobo?A.It creates positive memories.B.There’s something special about it.C.It makes people feel uncomfortable.D.People often try hard to avoid seeing it.6.What can we infer from the text?A.Smart people are especially attractive.B.Teaching styles impress students most.C.The best learning experience is hard to gain.D.Sincere attention is useful in communication.7.What can be a suitable title for the text?A.You are what you wearB.Mind the impression you makeC.How can we improve our self-image?D.What do people remember about you?C(2021·吉林高三下学期第三次调研)In an effort to fight the throw-away culture and promote reuse and repair, the city of Berlin has taken the unique step of opening its own second-hand department store.This isn’t your grandma’s thrift shop. It resells perfectly good items that would otherwise be thrown away. B-Wa(h)renhaus sells a wide variety of products. Far from simply selling old items, the electronic goods have been fixed by expert technicians and come with a year’s guarantee. And, to reach more second-hand shoppers, the store was set up right in the middle of the famous Karstadt department store.With the success of its initial six-month trial run, the city plans to open four more similar operations in other parts of Berlin. By 2030, it hopes to have at least one location in each of Berlin’s 12 districts. Since 2008, city policies and educational campaigns have reduced average annual household waste by about 25 pounds per resident. It also recycles about 49% of its mineral construction waste. Currently, the city estimates that 8% of abandoned electronic goods and 6% of huge items thrown away can actually be reused. The goal is to expand the market for these items beyond the usual bargain hunters and eco-conscious consumers.“Three years ago, we started collecting all kinds of used goods,” city spokesperson Dorothee Winden said,“There are lots of things that are well-preserved but aren’t being used anymore. The goal is to give these things a new life with somebody who can use them.” The store also includes an education centre to encourage more sustainable lifestyles, and gives an award to a project that recycles school uniforms, so that parents don’t have to buy new ones every year.8.Why has Berlin opened its own second-hand department store?A.To attract more shoppers.B.To promote recycling.C.To promote traditional culture.D.To sell insurance.9.In which aspect is B-Wa(h)renhaus different from the traditional second-hand store?A.The variety of the goods.B.The location of the store.C.The quality of the products.D.The operation of the store.10.What can we infer from paragraph 3?A.Berlin currently has 4 second-hand stores in construction.B.Berlin has been successful in cutting its waste since 2008.C.It is not easy to make the goal to expand the market a reality.D.It is estimated that Berlin will be a zero-waste city by 2030.11.What is the author’s main purpose in writing the text?A.To introduce Berlin’s new second-hand store operation.B.To raise people’s awareness of reasonable shopping.C.To persuade people to become eco-friendly shoppers.D.To encourage more people to donate to second-hand shops.考点分类练(二)细节理解题——间接信息类【语篇导读】本文是一篇新闻报道。

This year's attempt to influence the skies took place in Sao Pablo by a party's official sponsor, Skoal, a Brazilian beer brand. "The fun stops when it rains," says Pedro Ada my, Skoal's marketing director. So do beer sales.An airplane painted with Skoal's logo sprayed (喷洒) water droplets into clouds to make rain fall before the clouds reached the city. According to its YouTube video that has been viewed 12 million times, it is a "mission worthy of science fiction".Whether it's science or fiction is up for debate. The use of cloud-seeding to increase rainfall dates back to the 1940s. But the United States government stopped funding it in the 1980s due to a lack of" scientific proof of the effectiveness of intentional weather change", according to the National Research Council. A new paper based on experiments in Idaho found that seeding clouds with silver iodide increased snowfall on three occasions, but the authors say that more research is needed to find out if it can reliably promote precipitation (降水), Pablo Tartar, a Brazilian physicist, says flatly that cloud-seeding is "useless".Still, governments and firms in many countries use the technology. Sao Pablo's water company has signed million dollar contracts with ModClima to bring rain, most recently during a drought in 2014-15. Although cloud-seeding normally uses a chemical such as silver iodide to provide a surface around which water or ice droplets form, ModClima says it has invented an "experimental" method that uses water alone.Carnival-goers cheered when the first two days were cloudy but dry. Many shared Skol's video. But at around 5pm on February 24th, the sky darkened and rain poured down. Celebrants at one block party left the Skol stands and rushed to buy umbrellas and plastic rain capes.2.Why did Skol support cloud-seeding?A.To increase rainfall.B.To promote its beer sales.C.To provide evidence for a research.D.To highlight the theme of the Carnival.3.Which is Artaxo's attitude toward cloud-seeding?A.Objective.B.Doubtful.C.Conservative.D.Negative.4.Why was the US government no longer in favor of cloud-seeding?A.Its outcome couldn't be proved.B.It worked in limited situations.C.It needed more field researches.D.It used an un-ecofriendly chemical.5.What is the best title of the text?A.Could rain ruin fun?B.How do we change weather?C.Could we rely on intentional rain?D.How do we avoid cloud-seeding pollution?6.阅读理解。

下面是店铺给大家收集的高三英语的阅读理解题以及答案详解,一起来练习一下吧!第一篇:Imagine a mass of floating waste is two times the size of the state of Texas. Texas has a land area of more than 678 000 square kilometers. So it might be difficult to imagine anything twice as big.All together, this mass of waste flowing in the North Pacific Ocean is known as the Great Pacific Ocean Garbage Patch. It weighs about 3 500 000 tons. The waste includes bags,bottles and containers—plastic products of all kinds.The eastern part of the Great Pacific Ocean Garbage Patch is about l 600 kilometers west of California. The western part is west of the Hawaiian Islands and east of Japan. The area has been described as a kind of oceanic desert,with light winds and slow moving water currents. The water moves so slow that garbage from all over the world collects there.In recent years,there have been growing concerns about the floating garbage and its effect on sea creatures and human health. Scientists say thousands of animals get trapped in the floating waste,resulting in death or injury. Even more die from a lack of food or water after swallowing pieces of plastic. The trash can also make animals feel full,lessening their desire to eat or drink.The floating garbage also can have harmful effects on people. There is an increased threat of infection of disease from pollutedwaste,and from eating fish that swallowed waste. Divers can also get trapped in the plastic.Its existence first gained public attention in l997. That was when racing boat captain and oceanographer Charles Moore and his crew sailed into the garbage while returning from a racing event. Five years earlier,another oceanographer learned of the trash after a shipment of rubber duckies got lost at sea. Many of those toys are now part of the Great Pacific Ocean Garbage Patch.In August,2009,a team from the University of California,San Diego became thelatest group to travel to it. They were shocked by the amount of waste they saw. They gathered hundreds of sea creatures and water samples to measure the garbage patch’s effect on ocean environment.51.How did the writer introduce the topic of the passage?A. By giving an example.B. By listing the facts.C. By telling a story.D. By giving a comparison.52.What do we know about the Great Pacific Ocean Garbage Patch?A. It is made up of various kinds of plastic products.B. It is a solid mass of floating waste materials.C. It lies l60 000 kilometers east of California.D. It is described as a kind of oceanic desert.53.Why do people pay attention to the Great Pacific Ocean Garbage Patch?A. Because it may prevent the flow of ocean water.B. Because the polluted plastic articles will move up the food chain.C. Because it may be from an island in the pacific.D. Because ships may be trapped in the floating waste.54.Which column can you find the passage on a newspaper?A. Sports and entertainment.B. Media and culture.C. Environment and society.D. Science and technology.55.The purpose of writing this passage is to____________.A. warn people of the danger to travel in the pacificB. analyze what caused the waste patch in the pacificC. give advice on how to recycle waste in the oceanD. introduce the Great Pacific Ocean Garbage Patch第二篇:Europeans should try to stay indoors if ash from Iceland's volcano starts settling, the World Health Organization warned Friday as small amounts fell in Iceland, Scotland and Norway.WHO spokesman Daniel Epstein said the microscopic(微小的') ash is potentially dangerous for people when it starts to reach the Earth because inhaled(吸入) particles can enter the lungs and cause respiratory problems. And he also said Europeans who go outside might want to consider wearing a mask.Other experts, however, weren't convinced the volcanic ash would have a major effect on peoples' health and said WHO's warnings were "hysterical." They said volcanic ash was much less dangerous than cigarette smoke or pollution. Volcanic ash is made of fine particles of fragmented volcanic rock. It is light gray to black and can be as fine as talcum powder. During a volcanic eruption, the ash can be breathed deep into the lungs and cause irritation even in healthy people. But once it falls from a greater distance — like from the cloud currently hovering above Europe — its health effects are often minimal, experts say."Not all particles are created equal," said Ken Donaldson, a professor of respiratory toxicology at the University of Edinburgh, "In the great scheme of things, volcanic ash is not all thatharmful." And he said most Europeans' exposure to volcanic ash would be negligible and that only those in the near districts of the Icelandic volcano would likely be at risk.Dr. Stephen Spiro, a professor of respiratory medicine and deputy chair of the British Lung Foundation, said the further the particles travel, the less dangerous they will be. "The cloud has already passed over northern Scotland and we haven't heard of any ill effects there," he said. Spiro said to wear masks or stay indoors to avoid volcanic ash was "over the top" and "a bit hysterical."60. The text is mainly about .A. the effect of volcanic ashB. the health risk of volcanic ashC. the disadvantages of volcanic ashD. the opinions on health risk of volcanic ash61. Which one is true according to Paragraph3?A. The volcanic ash’s effects on Europeans were little.B. The ash caused irritation even in healthy people.C. Other experts thought WTO’S warnings were useful.D. The volcanic ash was more dangerous than cigarette smoke or pollution.62. The underlined word “hysterical” in Paragraph4 most probably means .A. amazingB. practicalC. valuableD. overstated63. What can we learn from the passage?A. The volcanic as h wouldn’t be harmful to people.B. All experts thought the volcanic ash did great harm to our health.C. People close to the volcano would likely be at risk according to some experts.D. Europeans should stay indoors because Iceland's volcano starts settling.>>>>>>参考答案<<<<<<第一篇:51.D。
高三英语阅读理解细节题突破(一)ADuring the Spring and Autumn Period,there was a man in the state of Qin whose name was Sun Yang.Sun Yang was very expert in looking at horses and judging their worth,whatever the horse might be,he could tell whether it was good or bad at first sight.One day,when Sun Yang was passing a place,he noticed that an old horse pulling a cart loaded with salt.He came near,and saw that it was a horse that really could cover a thousand li a day,but the only problem with it was that it was a little too old.Sun Yang felt that the horse was really unjustly treated.When he thought of this,he was so grieved that he shed tears.In order to help more people learn how to appraise horses so that fine horses which could cover a thousand li a day would no longer fall into oblivion(埋没),and also in order to ensure that his unique skill in judging horses would not be lost,Sun Yang wrote a book entitled the Art of Looking at Horses and Judging Their Worth.The book was also illustrated with the pictures of various horses.Sun Yang had a son who,after reading his father's book,thought it was very easy to appraise horses.So he took the book with him to look for fine horses everywhere.At first he searched according to the pictures in the book,and found nothing.Then he searched according to the characteristics described in the book and found a toad(癞蛤蟆)fit very well.So he happily took the toad back home,and said to his father,“Father,I have found a horse that can cover a thousand li a day,only its hoofs(蹄) are not good enough.”Looking at the toad,Sun Yang did not know whether he should laugh or cry.Knowing that his son was stupid,Sun Yang said humorously.“It's a pity that this horse is too fond of jumping to pull a cart.”Then he sighed.That is just what we call looking for a steed with the aid of its picture.1.What's the purpose of Sun Yang writing a book?A.To make much money.B.To help more people buy fine horses.C.To make his skill in judging horses play a great role in the future.D.To help his son judge horses and make a living.BI prefer Lynne Truss's phraseology: I am a grammar “stickler”.And,like Truss—authorof Eats,Shoots & Leaves—I have a “zero tolerance” approach to grammar mistakes that make people look stupid.Now,Truss and I disagree on what it means to have“zero tolerance”.She thinks that people who mix up basic grammar “deserve to be struck by lightning,hacked up on the spot and buried in an unmarked grave”,while I just think they deserve to be passed over for a job—even if they are otherwise qualified for the position.Everyone who applies for a position at either of my companies,iFixit or Dozuki,takes a compulsory grammar test.If job hopefuls can't distinguish between“to” and “too”,their applications go into the bin.Of course,we write for a living.iFixit is the world's largest online repair manual(指南),and Dozuki helps companies write their own technical documentation,like paperless work instructions and step-by-step user manuals.So,it makes sense that we've made a strong strike against grammar errors.But grammar is relevant for all companies.Yes,language is constantly changing,but that doesn't make grammar unimportant.Good grammar is credibility,especially on the Internet.And,for better or worse,people judge you if you can't tell the differe nce between “their”“there” and “they're”.Good grammar makes good business sense—and not just when it comes to hiring writers.Writing isn't in the official job description of most people in our office.Still,we give our grammar test to everybody,including our salespeople,our operations staff,and our programmers.Grammar signifies more than just a person's ability to remember high school English.I've found that people who make fewer mistakes on a grammar test also make fewer mistakes when they are doing something completely unrelated to writing—like stocking shelves or labeling parts.It is the same with programmers.Applicants who don't think writing is important are likely to think lots of other things also aren't important.2.The author agrees with Lynne Truss on that ______.A.g rammar mistakes can't be tolerant B.books on grammar make people stupidC.people need to learn basic grammarD.grammar mistakes are absolutely unavoidable3.What's the author's “zero tolerance” approach to these job seekers who mix up basic grammar?A.The y should be left out for a job. B.They have to correct their mistakes.C.They aren't qualified for their jobs. D.They must be severely punished.4.Which of the following is TRUE of iFixit and Dozuki?A.Only one of them has a compulsory grammar test.B.They are companies where one learns grammar.C.G rammar is quite important for their existence.D.They depend on grammar correction for a living.5.What can we learn from the text?Apanies giving grammar tests may have no good business sense.B.Grammar becomes unimportant as language is constantly changing.C.A“zero tolerance” approach to grammar errors might seem a little unfair.D.People who pay attention to writing may pay attention to other things.CCitizen science is a term used for projects or ongoing programs of scientific work in which individual volunteers or networks of volunteers,many of whom may have no specific scientific training,perform or manage research-related tasks such as observation,measurement or computation.An example of citizen science is a project called Project BudBurst.Over the past six growing seasons,Project BudBurst has used thousands of volunteer observers.They record when local plants develop their leaves,flowers and fruit.The observations go into a huge database.Then plant scientists can study the data to look for changes over time.Project director Sandra Henderson says participatory science like this is an idea that is growing quickly.For example,people who enjoy astronomy can observe changes in the brightness of a star.People can examine satellite images of Earth to look for sites where archeologists might find the lost tomb of Genghis Khan,the Mongolian warrior and ruler.Or someone interested in orca whales can listen to underwater microphones and let researchers know when the whales are present.Thousands of Americans and Canadians volunteered to count birds this past migration season as part of Project FeederWatch.Another area where citizen science has grown is in testing water.Amanda Bruner coordinates SoundCitizen,a project based at the University of Washington campus in Tacoma.It keeps track of pollutants in Puget Sound.Some people,including scientists,still question whether average citizens can collect reliable data.New digital tools can help settle questions about data quality,and make it easier for people to take part in citizen science.Public health research is another area where average citizens are getting involved—in some cases,whether researchers like it or not.The idea is for the public to have a voice in how public health studies are done.There is even a saying for this kind of activism:“No more research about us without us.”6.Who are the participants involved in citizen science?A.Professional scientists who have retired.B.The public showing interest in some science projects.C.Citizens who have specific scientific training.D.Students wanting to be scientists.7.What can help get reliable data in citizen science?A.Specific scientific training. B.More participation of the public.C.Greater social support. D.New digital tools.DA person's nose is important for breathing and smelling.The nose is also used in many popularexpressions.Some people can lead other people by the nose.For example,if a wife leads her husband by the nose,she makes him do whatever she wants him to do.Some people are said to be hard-nosed.They will not change their opinions or positions on anything.If someone is hard-nosed,chances are he will never pay through the nose,or pay too much money,for an object or service.It is always helpful when people keep their nose out of other people's business.They do not interfere.The opposite of this is someone who noses around all the time.This kind of person is interested in other people's private matters.He is considered nosey.More problems can develop if a person looks down his nose at someone or something.The person acts like something is unimportant or worthless.This person might also turn up his nose at something that he considers not good enough.This person thinks he is better than everyone else.He has his nose in the air.In school,some students thumb their nose at their teacher.They refuse to obey orders or do any work.Maybe these students do not know the correct answers.My mother always told me,if you study hard,the answers should be right under your nose or easily seen.I think we have explained the nose expressions.What about ears? Well,I hope you are allears or very interested in hearing more expressions.We might even put a bug in your ear or give you an idea about something.We also advise you to keep your ear to the ground.This means to be interested in what is happening around you and what people are thinking.If you are a good person,you will lend an ear to your friends.You will listen to them when they have a problem they need to talk about.8.If we say a man paid through the nose,we mean ______.A.he judged the quality of things by smelling B.he bought something he dislikedC.he bought something very expensive D.he overpaid for something he bought9.If a person is interested in other people's private matters,he may ______.A.nose around all the time B.keep his nose out of other people's things C.turn up his nose at others D.keep his ear to the ground10.In which sentence is the expression not used properly?A.We have a real hard-nosed boss,who always stands firm in his opinions.B.Sometimes true love is right under your nose.C.We were all ears,but he forgot what he wanted to say.D.It is importan t for us to thumb our nose at our parents.。

Thanks to its generous donors, UNICEF has helped save more lives than any other humanitarian organization.Monthly donors are a major reason why UNICEF can make that claim, according to Karla Coello, UNICEF USA Senior Director for Monthly Giving. "Last year, UNICEF responded to 377 humanitarian emergencies, from conflicts to natural disasters," says Coello. "Emergency appeals bring in important revenue — but after the emergency, there are still a lot of things children need to make life bearable. That's what our monthly donors provide."When drought destroys crops, conflict forces families from their homes, an epidemic breaks out or a disaster strikes, children suffer most. And in some countries, even the best of times are dangerous for its youngest citizens. Every day more than 15,000 children under 5 die from preventable causes.Protecting children before, during and after a crisis requires a reliable source of funding. The constant stream of revenue provided by monthly donations enables UNICEF to reach children with what they need most when they need it, prepositioning emergency supplies before a disaster strikes and continuing to build sustainable solutions after an immediate crisis has subsided.Monthly giving is also important to funding large-scale interventions(介入). Thanks to UNICEF's global immune campaigns, the world is now nearly free of polio(小儿麻痹症)and there are only 14 countries where mothers and children still face maternal and neonatal tetanus(破伤风)deadly threat. And UNICEF programs in 120 countries are helping to prevent and treat malnutrition, which is linked to nearly half of all deaths of children under 5."UNICEF USA monthly donors are our most engaged, most dedicated supporters," says Rebecca V olpe, UNICEF USA Manager, Monthly Giving. "So we do our best to make them feel appreciated by keeping them thoroughly updated about the powerful impact they arehaving and showing them how much they matter to us." In turn, monthly donors tend to be dedicated supporters. "Protecting children — giving them opportunities to play, learn, feel safer, heal — is critical to us," explained a survey respondent, expressing a commitment to children that UNICEF USA's Monthly Giving team sees every day.Supporters who sign up with UNICEF USA to give monthly automatically become members of the Guardian Circle, which affords them benefits, including:Annual statements to make tax time easierAn easy-to-use donor access that simplifies modifying gift amounts, updating payment methods and making other changes, including the timing of donations with the option to cancel at any pointTargeted communications in the form of monthly statements and a quarterly 8-page newsletter with stories from the fieldA team available to answer questions via email or phone"We have some donors who are on fixed income, others who can afford to make considerable monthly donations," says Coello. "Whether you give $5 or $700 a month, you are super important to us. What's important is that they all really want to give and help children. And that's amazing."It can be time-consuming and difficult to track charitable donations. At end of year, Guardian Circle monthly supporters receive one statement that makes filing tax returns easier — and it's always delightful to see how much good has been done for the world's most vulnerable(受伤害的)children.2.What is UNICEF meant to do according to the passage?A.To protect human rights of children who live in poverty.B.To provide timely assistance during time of emergency.C.To ensure children their rights, survival and development.D.To offer affordable services children in poor nations need.3.Why does the writer mention UNICEF's global immune campaigns?A.To warn people of dangers caused by polio and tetanus.B.To urge people to prevent and treat malnutrition as well.C.To inform people of the deadly threat of certain diseasesD.To state the benefits of funding large-scale interventions.4.If you sign up with UNICEF USA as a monthly donor, you can _______.A.ease your burden at yearly tax timeB.cancel whatever you have donatedC.get free newsletters every three monthsD.answer questions via email or phone5.According to Coello, who can be a monthly donor?A.Only the one who is able to pay a considerable amount.B.Whoever can afford to donate a certain amount monthly.C.One who has a fixed income to make monthly donations.D.Anyone willing to provide assistance for children in need. 6.Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?A.Why Donating Monthly Works Best.B.How The Donors Provide Assistance.C.What The Donors Do For Children.D.When Donating Can Be Done Properly.阅读理解Self-drivingCapabilitiesSensor and camera-equipped models from Audi and V olkswagen, among others, don't just automatically brake to prevent minor accidents; they can actually navigate(行驶)around highway traffic and into garages without a human at the wheel.AttractiveDashboardsIn addition to Ford's new Sync system, which better understands voice commands, Apple and Google have partnered with automakers to create interfaces(界面)as user-friendly as the ones on your smartphone.Smarter HeadlightsAudi's and BMW's ultra-bright laser headlights can detect oncoming cars and dim slightly to avoid disturbing their drivers.

An express train was due to go past about thirty minutes later. If it were not stopped, that long train, full of passengers, would fall into the stream. “Someone must go to the station and warn the station-master,” Kate thought. But who was to go? She would have to go herself. There was no one else.In wind and rain she started on her difficult way. Soon she was at the bridge that crossed the Des Moines River, a bridge also built of wood, just like the bridge across Honey Creek. The storm had not washed this away, but there was no footpath across it. She would have to cross it by stepping from sleeper (枕木)to sleeper. With great care she began the dangerous crossing, sometimes on her hands and knees, hardly daring to look down betweenthe sleepers into the wild flood waters below. If she should slip, she would fall between the sleepers, into the rapidly flowing stream.At last -- she never knew how long it had taken her一she felt solid ground under her feet. But there was no time to rest. She still had to run more than half a mile and had only a few minutes left. Unless she reached the station before the express did, many, many lives would be lost.She did reach the station just as the train came into sight. Fortunately thestation-master was standing outside. “The bridge is down! Stop the train! Oh, please stop it!” Kate shouted breathlessly.The station-master went pale. He rushed into the station building and came back with a signal light. He waved the red light as the train came into the station. It was not a second too early.根据短文内容,选择最佳答案,并将选定答案的字母标号填在题前括号内。

全国名校最新模拟题(共八篇)Passage 1 (2022年北京卷)My name is Alice. Early last year, I was troubled by an anxiety that crippled ( 削弱) my ability to do anything. I felt like a storm cloud hung over me. For almost a year I struggled on, constantly staring at this wall that faced me. My perfectionist tendencies were the main root of this: I wanted to be perfect at whatever I did, which obviously in life is not possible, but it consumed me.One day, I attended a presentation by wildlife conservationist Grant Brown at my high school. His presentation not only awed and inspired me, but also helped emerge an inner desire to make a difference in the world. I joined a pre-presentation dinner with him and that smaller setting allowed me to slowly build up my courage to speak one-on-one with him—an idea that had seemed completely impossible. This first contact was where my story began.A month later, Brown invited me to attend the World Youth Wildlife Conference. Looking back, I now see that this would be the first in a series of timely opportunities that my old self would have let pass, but that this new andmore confident Alice enthusiastically seized. Shortly after I received his invitation, applications to join the Youth for Nature and the Youth for Planet groups were sent around through my high school. I decided to commit to completing the applications, and soon I was a part of a growing global team of young people working to protect nature. Each of these new steps continued to grow my confidence.I am writing this just six months since my journey began and I’ve realised that my biggest obstacle ( 障碍) this whole time was myself. It was that voice in the back of my head telling me that one phrase that has stopped so many people from reaching their potential: I can’t. They say good things come to those who wait; I say: grab every opportunity with everything you have and be impatient. After all, nature does not require our patience, but our action.4.What was the main cause for Alice’s anxiety?A.Her inability to act her age.B.Her habit of consumption.C.Her desire to be perfect.D.Her lack of inspiration.5.How did Grant Brown’s presentation influence Alice?A.She decided to do something for nature.B.She tasted the sweetness of friendship.C.She learned about the harm of desire.D.She built up her courage to speak up.6.The activities Alice joined in helped her to become more ________.A.intelligent B.confident C.innovative D.critical7.What can we learn from this passage?A.Practice makes perfect.B.Patience is a cure of anxiety.C.Action is worry’s worst enemy.D.Everything comes to those who wait.4.C5.A6.B7.C【导语】这是一篇记叙文。

Professor Martin's report says that children who attend a number of schools, because their parents have to move around the country, probably make slow progress in their studies. There are also signs, says Professor Martin, that an unusually large number of such children are mentally affected.The professor says, "It's true, my personal feeling is that children should stay in one school. Our feelings are based on research and not on any personal feeling that I or many assistants may have on the subject."Captain Thomas James, an army lecturer for the past 20 years and himself a father of two, said, "I've never heard such rubbish. Taking me for example, no harm is done to the education of my children who change school regularly—if they keep to the same system, as in our Army school. In my experience—and I've known quite a few of them—Army children are as well-adjusted (适应) as any others, if not better. What the professor doesn't appear to appreciate is the fact that in such situations children will adapt (适应) much better than grown-ups."When this was put to Professor Martin, he said that at no time has his team suggested that all such children were backward or mentally affected in some way, but simply that in their experience there was a clear tendency (倾向)."Our findings show that while the very bright child can deal with regular changes without harming his or her general progress in studies, the majority (大多数) of children suffer from constantly (不断地) having to enter a new learning situation."(1)Professor Martin's report suggests that ________.A.it may not be good for children to change schools too oftenB.parents should not move around the countryC.children are now making slow progressD.more and more children are mentally affected(2)According to the passage, Professor Martin's personal feeling ________.A.is opposite of what his report has shownB.is in a way supported by his researchC.has played a big part in his researchD.is based on his own experience as a child(3)From the passage, we can conclude that Captain James's children ________.A.have been affected by changing schoolsB.go to ordinary state schoolsC.can get used to the Army school educationD.discuss their education regularly with their father(4)According to Professor Martin, ________ suffer from changing schools regularly.A.army children B.quite a few childrenC.bright children D.few children2.阅读理解Short Story CompetitionThe competition begins at June 30 and ends at December 15.It is open to all local citizens of Ontario who are at 16 or over, except the employees and judges and anyone living with any employee of the sponsors or judges.The author's name address phone number and a 25-50-word self-introduction must be included with each entry on a separate sheet of paper.

There are four types to be aware of.Eye contact is one of the most direct and powerful facial expressions. The eyes are always talking. The use of eye contact varies significantly from culture to culture. In some regions, direct eye contact is often considered a sign of trustworthiness. So, if you're in America, you should know soft, attentive eye contact would convey honesty. However, a hard, unblinking stare will send a much different message, similar to the meaning of direct eye contact in some regions.Gestures can be used to emphasize(强调)meaning. Pressing fingers together to form a steeple slows interest and determination. Touching the nose or rubbing eyes indicates discomfort. A hand to the back of the neck may indicate you are not interested in a conversation.Body posture can be closed or open. A firm handshake will give the impression of honesty. Folding arms across your chest or body is protective. People with arms folded, legs crossed and bodies turned away reject messages. A head held straight up signals a neural attitude. A head sidewards indicates interest. A head down is negative.The position of speakers and listeners: face-to-face, side-to-side, or back-to-back, can send powerful messages. In a group situation, when the leader faces the group and turns toward the one who is speaking, this conveys strong attention. When two people are communicating, competitors more possibly sit facing each other while cooperators sitside-by-side.(1)Which of the following body language can mean or express honesty?A.A head sidewards or touching the nose.B.Attentive eye contact or a firm handshake.C.A firm handshake or folding arms across one's chest.D.Attentive eye contact or folding arms across one's chest(2)What shows your discomfort in the conversation?A.Touching the nose or rubbing eyes.B.Folding arms across your chest or body.C.Putting a hand to the back of the neck.D.Pressing fingers together to form a steeple.(3)Which of the following best explains "reject" underlined in Paragraph 4?A.Feel down.B.Care for.C.Turn down.D.Agree with.(4)Which type of body language do the examples in Paragraph 5 belong to?A.Facial expressions.B.Gestures.C.Body posture.D.Space relationship.(5)What does the text mainly talk about?A.Types of body language.B.The origin of body language.C.How to learn body language.D.How to use body language. 7.阅读理解Everybody, at some point in their lives, has experienced failure. It could be something as simple as not getting the job you wanted, or getting fewer marks even after hard work. But what makes you is not your failure, but how you get back up after being hit.Once, a young school boy was caught in a fire accident in his school and was assumed that he would not live. His mother was told that he was sure to die, for the terrible fire had destroyed the lower half of his body. Even if he were to survive, he would be lame throughout his life.But the brave boy did not want to die nor did he want to be lame. Much to the amazement of the doctor, he did survive. But unfortunately from his waist down, he had no motor ability. His thin legs just hung there, lifeless. Eventually he left the hospital. But his determination to walk was unshakable. At home, when he was not in bed, he had to stay in a wheelchair. One day, he threw himself from the chair and pulled himself across the grass, dragging his legs behind him. He reached the fence, raised himself up and then began dragging himself along the fence, firmly determined. He did this every day, with faith in himself that he would be able to walk unaided. With his iron determination, he did develop the ability to stand up, then to walk on and off, then to walk by himself and then to run.He began to walk to school, and then run to school, to run for the joy of running. Later incollege he was on the track team.In February 1934, in New York City's Madison Square Garden, this young man who was not expected to survive, who would surely never walk, who could never hope to run - this determined young man, Dr. Glenn Cunningham, ran the world's fastest mile.A good example of the power of positive thinking and faith in oneself, Glenn Cunningham continues to be an inspiration for many, and his story, a brilliant evidence to how one can bounce back even when all difficulties are piled against one, to the degree that death seemed the preferable option.(1)The first paragraph is intended toA.present an argument B.make preparations for statement C.arouse readers' interest D.function as a brief introduction (2)What was the doctor's opinion about Glenn?A.Glenn was able to walk with his own great effort.B.Great determination could make a difference to Glenn.C.There was a slim chance that Glenn could survive.D.Glenn could live a normal life with the upper halt" of his body.(3)What do we know about Glenn?A.Glenn took recovery exercise in hospital.B.Glenn inspired people with his moving story.C.Glenn won the first place in Marathon.D.Glenn organized a track team in college.(4)What can be a suitable title for the text?A.Strengthen determination B.Stand up after failureC.Go after dreams D.Face difficulty bravely答案解析部分1.【答案】(1)A(2)B(3)C(4)B2.【答案】(1)B(2)C(3)D【答案】3.A4.B5.C6.【答案】(1)B(2)A(3)C(4)D(5)A7.【答案】(1)D(2)C(3)B(4)B高考英语阅读理解真题专项突破训练25套含答案一、阅读理解1.阅读理解Occasions like anniversaries, weddings and reunions call for special event venues (场地).

This year's attempt to influence the skies took place in Sao Pablo by a party's official sponsor, Skoal, a Brazilian beer brand. "The fun stops when it rains," says Pedro Ada my, Skoal's marketing director. So do beer sales.An airplane painted with Skoal's logo sprayed (喷洒) water droplets into clouds to make rain fall before the clouds reached the city. According to its YouTube video that has been viewed 12 million times, it is a "mission worthy of science fiction".Whether it's science or fiction is up for debate. The use of cloud-seeding to increase rainfall dates back to the 1940s. But the United States government stopped funding it in the 1980s due to a lack of" scientific proof of the effectiveness of intentional weather change", according to the National Research Council. A new paper based on experiments in Idaho found that seeding clouds with silver iodide increased snowfall on three occasions, but the authors say that more research is needed to find out if it can reliably promote precipitation (降水), Pablo Tartar, a Brazilian physicist, says flatly that cloud-seeding is "useless".Still, governments and firms in many countries use the technology. Sao Pablo's water company has signed million dollar contracts with ModClima to bring rain, most recently during a drought in 2014-15. Although cloud-seeding normally uses a chemical such as silver iodide to provide a surface around which water or ice droplets form, ModClima says it has invented an "experimental" method that uses water alone.Carnival-goers cheered when the first two days were cloudy but dry. Many shared Skol's video. But at around 5pm on February 24th, the sky darkened and rain poured down. Celebrants at one block party left the Skol stands and rushed to buy umbrellas and plastic rain capes.2.Why did Skol support cloud-seeding?A.To increase rainfall.B.To promote its beer sales.C.To provide evidence for a research.D.To highlight the theme of the Carnival.3.Which is Artaxo's attitude toward cloud-seeding?A.Objective.B.Doubtful.C.Conservative.D.Negative.4.Why was the US government no longer in favor of cloud-seeding?A.Its outcome couldn't be proved.B.It worked in limited situations.C.It needed more field researches.D.It used an un-ecofriendly chemical.5.What is the best title of the text?A.Could rain ruin fun?B.How do we change weather?C.Could we rely on intentional rain?D.How do we avoid cloud-seeding pollution?6.阅读理解。

Joanna Syson.She moved to Beijing in the 1990s to study Chinese.In 1999 she returned to Norway for six months,entrusting(委托) all her belongings,including the photographs,to a friend.When she returned,the friend was gone.So were her belongings.She was heartbroken.More than a decade passed.Then,thanks to the story posted on CRI and to a visitor to the website,the trail(踪迹) finally led to Joanna Syson.She traveled to Beijing to meet Wang Weiguo,who had searched for her for 12 years,and to recover her treasured photographs.Syson's Norwegian home was burned a few years ago.All of her family photographs were lost.Now at least,she has the photographs found by a good man that never stopped trying to return them to her.2.Which of the following statements about Wang Weiguo is possibly true?A.He made every effort to find the owner.B.He spent little time figuring out the background of the owner.C.His friends were all willing to help him find the owner.D.One of his friends worked for China Radio International.CSex prejudices are based on and justified by the ideology(意识形态) that biology is destiny.According to this ideology,basic biological and psychological differences exist between the sexes.These differences require each sex to play a separate role in social life.Women are the weaker sex both physically and emotionally.Thus,they are naturally suited,much more so than men,to the performance of domestic(家庭的) duties.A woman's place,under normal circumstances,is within the protective environment of the home.Nature has determined that women play caretaker roles,such as wife and mother and homemaker.On the other hand,men are best suited to go out into the competitive world of work and politics,where seriousresponsibilities must be taken on.Men are to be the providers;women and children are “dependents”.The ideology also holds that women who wish to work outside the household should naturally fill these jobs that are in line with the special capabilities of their sex.It is appropriate for women,not men,to be employed as nurses,social workers,elementary school teachers,household helpers,clerks and secretaries.These positions are simply an extension of women's domestic rmal distinct ions between “women's work” and “men's work”in the labor force,according to the ideology,are simply a functional reflection of the basic differences between the sexes.Finally,the ideology suggests that nature has worked her will in another significant way.For the human species to survive over time,its members must regularly reproduce.Thus,women must,whether at home or in the labor force,make the most of their physical appearances.So goes the ideology.It is,of course,not true that basic biological and psychological differences between the sexes require each to play sex-defined roles in social life.There is enough evidence that sex roles vary from society to society,and those_role_differences_that_do_exist_are_largely_learned.But to some degree people actually believe that biology is destiny and that nature intends men and women to make different contributions to society,so sex-defined roles will be seen as totally acceptable.3.Those who have prejudices against women think that ______.A.women shouldn't go out for workB.women should earn money to add the family incomeC.wom en going out for work should only do “women's work”D.women should take jobs to drill the special capabilities of the sex4.The author thinks that the positions women hold outside________.A.are determined by what they are better suited toB.gr ow out of their household responsibilitiesC.represent their breakthrough of sex discriminationD.are physically and emotionally suitable to them5.What does the underlined sentence imply?A.Sex roles are socially determined.B.Sex roles are emotionally and physically determined.C.Sex roles are biologically and psychologically determined.D.Sex roles are determined by education people take.DThe Olympic medal ceremonies have already begun.But some athletes hardly disguise their disappointment when silver and not gold is hung around their necks.The British judo silvermedallist Neil Adams calls his two from the 1980s “loser's medals”.Until four years ago,they were in a box at the back of a cupboard.His wife then had them framed for his 50th birthday and they are now up on the wall.Adams feels proud when he looks at them,but his thoughts quickly turn to “what ifs”.“I wouldn't change much”,he adds.And he wouldn't need to.Gold was within his grasp twice,but slipped away by a narrow margin on the judo mat.“The losses at the Olympic Games were the most difficult thing for me to accept,” he said.“I didn't win the silver medal.I lost the gold.In my mind they were losses.It has taken more than 30 years to get over it.”Mark Cavendish,Jessica Ennis and Mo Farah have never won Olympic gold,but they came into London 2012 as three of Team GB's biggest medal hopes.Unfortunately,Cavendish has already suffered disappointment in the cycling road race.Neil Adams was in that same position in both the 1980 and 1984 games.However,in a career in which he collected every other judo accolade,things simply went wrong at the Olympics.In Moscow 1980,Adams was just 21 years old and found the media focus and pressure of expectation too much.Asked about being a favourite,Adams said:“It is hell,and about how you cope with it in the mind.It can make you afraid to win or lose and there is a difference.I was afraid to lose.Sometimes you freeze.Sometimes it takes you over.”Adams says that he was very cautious and that when something was tactical and technical he approached it too tactically.Perhaps it's better to go in with a ‘nothing to lose’ attitude.That might be the reason why the Olympic Games have often created surprise results.Sometimes it's the ones who keep their cool and work the hardest who get the results.6.Adams always felt it a pity to win silver medals because ________.A.he was narrowly beaten by the champion B.he didn't try his bestC.he lacked techniques D.he was too greedy7.What advice does the author give to other athletes?A.Try to become the media focus. B.Keep their cool and work hard.C.Try to do better next time. D.Use as many techniques as possible.。

Whoare the participants involved in citizen science?A .Professional scientists who have retired.B .The public showing interest in some science projects.C.Citizens who have specific scientific training.D .Students wanting to be scientists.7.

例如:AOurs has become a society of employees. A hundred years or so ago only one out of every five Americans at work was employed, i. e., worked for somebody else. Today only one out of five is not employed but working for himself. And when fifty years ago "being employed" meant working as a factory labourer or as a farmhand, the employee of today is increasingly a middle-class person with a substantial formal education, holding a professional or management job requiring intellectual and technical skills. Indeed, two things have characterized American society during these last fifty years: middle-class and upper - class employees have been the fastest-growing groups in our working population-growing so fast that the industrial worker, that oldest child of the Industrial Revolution, has been losing in numerical importance despite the expansion of industrial production.Yet you will fine little if anything written on what it is to be an employee. You can find a great deal of very dubious advice on how to get a job or how to get a promotion. You can also find a good deal of work in a chosen field, whether it be the mechanist' s trade or bookkeeping (簿记). Every one of these trades requires different skills, sets different standards, and requires a different preparation. Yet they all have employeeship in common. And increasingly, especially in the large business or in government, employeeship is more important to success than the special professional knowledge or skill. Certainly more people fail because they do not know the requirements of being an employee than because they do not adequately possess the skills of their trade; the higher you climb the ladder, the more you get into administrative or executive work, the greater the emphasis on ability to work within the organization rather than on technical abilities or professional knowledge.1. According to the writer, professional knowledge or skill is _______ .A. less important than awareness of being a good employeeB. as important as the ability to deal with public relationsC. more important than employer- employee relationsD. as important as the ability to co- operate with others in the organizationBExposed to higher standards of service elsewhere, Israelis are returning home expecting the same. American firms have also begun arriving in large numbers. Chains such as KFC, McDonald’s and Pizza Hut are setting a new standard of customer service, using strict employee training and constant monitoring to ensure the friendliness of frontline staff. Even the American habit of telling departing customers to “Have a nice day” has caught on all over Israel. “Nobody wakes up in the morning and says, ‘Let’s be nicer,’” says Itsik Cohen, director of a consulting firm. “Nothing happens without competition.”Privatization, or the threat of it, is a motivation as well. Monopolies (垄断者) that until recently have been free to take their customers for granted now fear what Michael Perry, a marketing professor, calls “the revengeful (报复的) consumer.” When the government opened up competition with Bezaq, the phone company, its international branch lost 40% of its market share, even while offering competitive rates. Says Perry, “People wanted revenge for all the years of bad service.” The electric company, whose monopoly may be short-lived, has suddenly stopped requiring users to wait half a day for a repairman. Now, appointments are scheduled to the half-hour. The graceless El Al Airlines, which is already at auction (拍卖), has retrained its employees to emphasize service and is boasting about the results in an ad campaign with the slogan, “You can feel the change in the air.” For the first time, praise outnumbers complaints on customer survey sheets.28. If someone in Israel today needs a repairman in case of a power failure, ________.A. they can have it fixed in no timeB. it’s no longer necessary to make an appointmentC. the appointment takes only half a day to makeD. they only have to wait half an hour at most29.The example of El A1 Airlines shows that _______.A. revengeful customers are a threat to the monopoly of enterprisesB. an ad campaign is a way out for enterprises in financial difficultyC. a good slogan has great potential for improving serviceD. staff retraining is essential for better service【课堂精练】AHistorically, most physical-fitness tests have usually included measures of muscular strength and endurance, not for health-related reasons, but primarily because such fitness components have been related to performance in athletics. However, in recent years, evidence has shown that training programs designed primarily to improve muscular strength and endurance might also offer some health benefits as well.39. People were given physical fitness tests in order to find out ________.A. how well they could do in athleticsB. what their health condition was likeC. what kind of fitness center was suitable for themD. whether they were fit for aerobic exerciseBCold symptoms such as stuffy nose, runny nose and scratchy throat typically develop gradually, and adults and teens often do not get a fever. On the other hand, fever is one of the characteristic features of the flu for all ages. And in general, flu symptoms including fever and chills, sore throat and body aches come on suddenly and are more severe than cold symptoms.14. Which of the following symptoms will distinguish the flu from a cold?A. A stuffy nose. C. A sore throat.B. A high temperature. D. A dry cough.CWomen have slightly better memories than men, possibly because they pay more attention to their environment, and memory relies on just that.27. One possible reason why women have better memories than men is that ________.A. they have a wider range of interestsB. they are more reliant on the environmentC. they have an unusual power of focusing their attentionD. they are more interested in what’s happening around themDWhen the auto enters the highway system, a retractable (可伸缩的) arm will drop from the auto and make contact with a rail, which is similar to those powering subway trains electrically. Once attached to the rail, the car will become electrically powered from the system, and control of the vehicle will pass to a central computer.23.

And the term big business -- referring to the biggest companies, is seen in opposition to labor. Throughout U.S. history working people have had to fight hard for higher wages, better working conditions, and the right to form unions. Today, many of the old labor disputes are over, but there is still some employee anxiety. Downsizing -- the laying off of thousands of workers to keep expenses low and profits high -- creates feelings of insecurity for many.29.Henry Ford’s statements can be taken negatively because ______.A. working people are discouraged to fight for their rightsB. there are many industries controlled by a few big capitalistsC. there is a conflicting relationship between big corporations and laborD. public services are not run by the federal government阅读细节题【课堂精讲】事实细节题常见题干:*Which of the following is (NOT) true when talking about…?*What is the example of… as described in the passage?*The reason for… is _______.*According to the passage, when (where, why, how, who, etc.)…?*The following statements about… are true EXCEPT _______.细节题特征:针对原文的一点、一句话、一个词组进行提问。

高三英语阅读理解细节题突破(一)ADuring the Spring and Autumn Period,there was a man in the state of Qin whose name was Sun Yang.Sun Yang was very expert in looking at horses and judging their worth,whatever the horse might be,he could tell whether it was good or bad at first sight.One day,when Sun Yang was passing a place,he noticed that an old horse pulling a cart loaded with salt.He came near,and saw that it was a horse that really could cover a thousand li a day,but the only problem with it was that it was a little too old.Sun Yang felt that the horse was really unjustly treated.When he thought of this,he was so grieved that he shed tears.In order to help more people learn how to appraise horses so that fine horses which could cover a thousand li a day would no longer fall into oblivion(埋没),and also in order to ensure that his unique skill in judging horses would not be lost,Sun Yang wrote a book entitled the Art of Looking at Horses and Judging Their Worth.The book was also illustrated with the pictures of various horses.Sun Yang had a son who,after reading his father's book,thought it was very easy to appraise horses.So he took the book with him to look for fine horses everywhere.At first he searched according to the pictures in the book,and found nothing.Then he searched according to the characteristics described in the book and found a toad(癞蛤蟆)fit very well.So he happily took the toad back home,and said to his father,“Father,I have found a horse that can cover a thousand li a day,only its hoofs(蹄) are not good enough.”Looking at the toad,Sun Yang did not know whether he should laugh or cry.Knowing that his son was stupid,Sun Yang said humorously.“It's a pity that this horse is too fond of jumping to pull a cart.”Then he sighed.That is just what we call looking for a steed with the aid of its picture.1.What's the purpose of Sun Yang writing a book?A.To make much money.B.To help more people buy fine horses.C.To make his skill in judging horses play a great role in the future.D.To help his son judge horses and make a living.BI prefer Lynne Truss's phraseology: I am a grammar “stickler”.And,like Truss—author of Eats,Shoots& Leaves—I have a “zero tolerance” approach to grammar mistakes that make people look stupid.Now,Truss and I disagree on what it means to have“zero tolerance”.She thinks that people who mix up basic grammar “deserve to be struck by lightning,hacked up on the spot and buried in an unmarked grave”,while I just think they deserve to be passed over for a job—even if they are otherwise qualified for the position.Everyone who applies for a position at either of my companies,iFixit or Dozuki,takes a compulsory grammar test.If job hopefuls can't distinguish between“to” and “too”,their applications go into the bin.Of course,we write for a living.iFixit is the world's largest online repair manual(指南),and Dozuki helps companies write their own technical documentation,like paperless work instructions and step-by-step user manuals.So,it makes sense that we've made a strong strike against grammar errors.But grammar is relevant for all companies.Yes,language is constantly changing,but that doesn't make grammar unimportant.Good grammar is credibility,especially on the Internet.And,for better or worse,people judge you if you can't tell the differe nce between “their”“there” and “they're”.Good grammar makes good business sense—and not just when it comes to hiring writers.Writing isn't in the official job description of most people in our office.Still,we give our grammar test to everybody,including our salespeople,our operations staff,and our programmers.Grammar signifies more than just a person's ability to remember high school English.I've found that people who make fewer mistakes on a grammar test also make fewer mistakes when they are doing something completely unrelated to writing—like stocking shelves or labeling parts.It is the same with programmers.Applicants who don't think writing is important are likely to think lots of other things also aren't important.2.The author agrees with Lynne Truss on that ______.A.g rammar mistakes can't be tolerant B.books on grammar make people stupidC.people need to learn basic grammarD.grammar mistakes are absolutely unavoidable3.What's the author's “zero tolerance” approach to these job seekers who mix up basic grammar?A.The y should be left out for a job. B.They have to correct their mistakes.C.They aren't qualified for their jobs. D.They must be severely punished.4.Which of the following is TRUE of iFixit and Dozuki?A.Only one of them has a compulsory grammar test.B.They are companies where one learns grammar.C.G rammar is quite important for their existence.D.They depend on grammar correction for a living.5.What can we learn from the text?Apanies giving grammar tests may have no good business sense.B.Grammar becomes unimportant as language is constantly changing.C.A“zero tolerance” approach to grammar errors might seem a little unfair.D.People who pay attention to writing may pay attention to other things.CCitizen science is a term used for projects or ongoing programs of scientific work in which individual volunteers or networks of volunteers,many of whom may have no specific scientific training,perform or manageresearch-related tasks such as observation,measurement or computation.An example of citizen science is a project called Project BudBurst.Over the past six growing seasons,Project BudBurst has used thousands of volunteer observers.They record when local plants develop their leaves,flowers and fruit.The observations go into a huge database.Then plant scientists can study the data to look for changes over time.Project director Sandra Henderson says participatory science like this is an idea that is growing quickly.For example,people who enjoy astronomy can observe changes in the brightness of a star.People can examine satellite images of Earth to look for sites where archeologists might find the lost tomb of Genghis Khan,the Mongolian warrior and ruler.Or someone interested in orca whales can listen to underwater microphones and let researchers know when the whales are present.Thousands of Americans and Canadians volunteered to count birds this past migration season as part of Project FeederWatch.Another area where citizen science has grown is in testing water.Amanda Bruner coordinates SoundCitizen,a project based at the University of Washington campus in Tacoma.It keeps track of pollutants in Puget Sound.Some people,including scientists,still question whether average citizens can collect reliable data.New digital tools can help settle questions about data quality,and make it easier for people to take part in citizen science.Public health research is another area where average citizens are getting involved—in some cases,whether researchers like it or not.The idea is for the public to have a voice in how public health studies are done.There is even a saying for this kind of activism:“No more research about us without us.”6.Who are the participants involved in citizen science?A.Professional scientists who have retired.B.The public showing interest in some science projects.C.Citizens who have specific scientific training.D.Students wanting to be scientists.7.What can help get reliable data in citizen science?A.Specific scientific training. B.More participation of the public.C.Greater social support. D.New digital tools.DA person's nose is important for breathing and smelling.The nose is also used in many popular expressions.Some people can lead other people by the nose.For example,if a wife leads her husband by the nose,she makes him do whatever she wants him to do.Some people are said to be hard-nosed.They will not change their opinions or positions on anything.If someone is hard-nosed,chances are he will never pay through the nose,or pay too much money,for an object or service.It is always helpful when people keep their nose out of other people's business.They do not interfere.The opposite of this is someone who noses around all the time.This kind of person is interested in other people's private matters.He is considered nosey.。
