山西靈丘縣2017高考英語閱讀理解一輪基礎(chǔ)題
閱讀理解。閱讀下列短文, 從給的四個選項(xiàng) (A、B、C和D) 中, 選出最佳選項(xiàng)。
Education in the United States is compulsory for children up to about the age of sixteen. Most young people stay in school longer than that. Most graduate from high school at the age of 17 or 18.
Almost half of these high school graduates continue their education at a college or university. Education for most young people in this country is free up to the time they graduate from high school. There are private schools, but most parents send their children to public schools, where students do not pay tuition. When young people go to college, however, they must pay tuition at a public university or a private university. University costs are going up a lot:private universities have become very expensive because the government does not help them.
Who pays? The parents of children in college may have to pay more, or often students may have to find jobs. These students have to worry about assignments and grades and also about their jobs. If they work too much at their jobs they may be absent from class or miss assignments or make too many errors on tests. They may even fail their courses and have to leave the university.
For many students, the problem of getting an education is not just a problem of homework and exams. They also have to make money to pay for tuition. And professors don't teach them how to do that!
1.In the United States, almost half of the high school graduates________.
A.go to colleges and universities
B.need not pay any tuition
C.have to enter open universities
D.work hard to avoid errors on tests
答案:A 本題考查細(xì)節(jié)題。由文章第二段第一句“Almost half of these high school graduates continue their education at a college or university”可知,幾乎有一半的中學(xué)生畢業(yè)都在大學(xué)或?qū)W院里繼續(xù)深造。
2.Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A.Most parents prefer to send their children to public schools rather than to private schools due to tuition.
B.Education is not free until the students graduate from high school.
C.University costs are on the increase.
D.The students may be absent from class if they work overtime.
答案:B 本題考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。由文章第二段第二句“Education for most young people in this country is free up to the time they graduate from high school.”可知,在這個國家,大多數(shù)年輕人接受的免費(fèi)教育可持續(xù)到中學(xué)畢業(yè),而這正與B的意思相反,因此B是正確答案。
3.The private university students have to pay more money for tuition because________.
A.the government does not finance the private universities
B.none of companies support the private universities
C.the teaching quality of the private universities are superior to public ones
D.they have some trouble in passing the exams
答案:A 本題考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。由文章第二段第五句“University costs are going up a lot; private universities have become very expensive because the government does not help them.”可知,私立大學(xué)學(xué)費(fèi)高昂的原因是政府不資助私立學(xué)校。
4.The main idea of the passage might be________.
A.selecting a good university costs in the United States
B.the increase on university costs in the United States
C.the argument about education in the United States
D.the problem of getting an education in the United States
答案:D 本題考查主旨大意??v觀全文,一直談?wù)摰亩际窃诿绹逃杏龅降膯栴},因此D項(xiàng)是正確答案。
2016高考英語****閱讀理解。
閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的四個選項(xiàng)(A、B、C、D)中,選出最佳選項(xiàng)。
Men are spending more and more time in the kitchen encouraged by celebrity (名人) chefs like Gordon Ramsay and Jamie Oliver, according to a report from Oxford University.
The effect of the celebrity role models, who have given cooking a more manly picture, has combined with a more general drive towards sexual equality and men now spend more than twice the amount of time preparing meals than they did in 1961.
According to the research by Prof. Jonatahn Gershuny, who runs the Centre for Time Research at Oxford, men now spend more than half an hour a day cooking, up from just 12 minutes a day in 1961.
Prof. Gershuny said, “The man in the kitchen is part of a much wider social trend. There has been 40 years of sexual equality, but there is another 40 years probably to come.”
Women, who a generation ago spent nearly two hours a day cooking, now spend just one hour and seven minutes—a great fall, but they still spend far more time in the kitchen than men.
Some experts have named these men in aprons as “Gastrosexuals (men using cooking skills to impress friends)”, who have been inspired to pick up a kitchen knife by the success of Ramsay, Oliver as well as other male celebrity chefs such as Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall, Marco Pierre White and Keith Floyd.
“I was married in 1974. When my father came to visit me a few weeks later, I was wearing an apron when I opened the door. He laughed,” said Prof. Gershuny. “That would never happen now.”
Two-thirds of adults say that they come together to share at least three times a week, even if it is not necessarily around a kitchen or dining room table. Prof. Gershuny pointed out that the family meal was now rarely eaten by all of its members around a table—with many “family meals” in fact taken on the sofa in the sitting room, and shared by family members. “The family meal has changed a lot, and few of us eat—as I did when I was a child—at least two meals a day together as a family. But it has survived in a different format.”
12. What is one reason behind the trend that men spend more time cooking than before?
A. The improvement of cooks’ status.
B. The influence of popular female chefs.
C. The change of female’s view on cooking.
D. The development of sexual equality campaign.
13. What does the author think about the time men and women spend on cooking?
A. Men spend more time cooking than women nowadays.
B. Women spend much less time on cooking than before.
C. It will take 40 years before men spend more time at the stove than women.
D. There is a sharp decline in the time men spend on cooking compared with 1961.
14. How did Prof. Gershuny see the family meal according to the passage?
A. It has become a thing of the past.
B. It is very different from what it used to be.
C. It shouldn’t be advocated in modern times.
D. It is beneficial to the stability of the family.
15. Which is the best title for the passage?
A. The Changes of Family Meals
B. Equality between Men and Women
C. Cooking into a New Trend for Men
D. Cooking—a Thing of the Past for Women
參考答案12—15 DBBC

閱讀理解
Everybody is happy as his pay rises. Yet pleasure at your own can disappear if you learn that a fellow worker has been given a bigger one. Indeed, if he is known as being lazy, you might even be quite cross. Such behavior is regarded as “all too human”, with the underlying belief that other animals would not be able to have this finely developed sense of sadness. But a study by Sarah Brosnan of Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia, which has just been published in Nature, suggests that it is all too monkey, as well.
??? The researchers studied the behaviors of some kind of female brown monkeys. They look smart. They are good-natured, co-operative creatures, and they share their food happily. Above all, like female human beings, they tend to pay much closer attention to the value of “goods and services” than males.
??? Such characteristics make them perfect subjects for Doctor Brosnan’s study. The researchers spent two years teaching their monkeys to exchange tokens (獎券) for food. Normally, the monkeys were happy enough to exchange pieces of rock for pieces of cucumber. However, when two monkeys were placed in separate and connected rooms, so that each other could observe what the other is getting in return for its rock, they became quite different.
In the world of monkeys,grapes are excellent goods (and much preferable to cucumbers). So when one monkey was handed a grape in exchange for her token, the second was not willing to hand hers over for a mere piece of cucumber. And if one received a grape without having to provide her token in exchange at all, the other either shook her own token at the researcher, or refused to accept the cucumber. Indeed, the mere presence of a grape in the other room (without an actual monkey to eat it) was enough to bring about dissatisfaction in a female monkey.
The researches suggest that these monkeys, like humans, are guided by social senses. In the wild, they are co-operative and group-living. Such co-operation is likely to be firm only when each animal feels it is not being cheated. Feelings of anger when unfairly treated, it seems, are not the nature of human beings alone. Refusing a smaller reward completely makes these feelings clear to other animals of the group. However, whether such a sense of fairness developed independently in monkeys and humans, or whether it comes from the common roots that they had 35 million years ago, is, as yet, an unanswered question.
1. According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?
? A. Only monkeys and humans can have the sense of fairness in the world.
? B. Women will show more dissatisfaction than men when unfairly treated.
???C. In the wild, monkeys are never unhappy to share their food with each other.
???D. Monkeys can exchange cucumbers for grapes, for grapes are more attractive.
答案解析:答案為B。本題為推斷題,考生需通讀全文進(jìn)行推斷。本文講述了當(dāng)受到不公平待遇的時候,每個人都會生氣,包括動物。但是雌性的動物比雄性的動物更加在意不公平的待遇,研究中用猴子作為實(shí)驗(yàn)來證明這一點(diǎn)。文章中第二段 “Above all, like female human beings, they tend to pay much closer attention to the value of “goods and services” than males.” 與第三段 “Such characteristics make them perfect subjects for Doctor Brosnan’s study.” 都有此表達(dá),故答案為B “當(dāng)受到不公平待遇的時候,女性比男性更加不滿”。
從最后一段 “Refusing a smaller reward completely makes these feelings clear to other animals of the group. However, whether such a sense of fairness developed independently in monkeys and humans, or whether it comes from the common roots that they had 35 million years ago, is, as yet, an unanswered question.”中可知,independently (獨(dú)立)對應(yīng)A選項(xiàng)中的only,whether…or…an unanswered question(是否…或者…未知的問題)的表達(dá)方式與A選項(xiàng)的意思 “只有猴子與人類才具有公平意識” 不同,故A選項(xiàng)是錯誤的。
從第三段 “Normally, the monkeys were happy enough to exchange pieces of rock for pieces of cucumber. However, when two monkeys were placed in separate and connected rooms, so that each other could observe what the other is getting in return for its rock, they became quite different.”可知,猴子樂意用石塊交換黃瓜,但是當(dāng)看到另外一只猴子因?yàn)槭瘔K得到的回報(bào),態(tài)度就不一樣了。因此C選項(xiàng) “猴子從不會不高興彼此分享食物” 與該句意思不符。
從第四段首句 “In the world of monkeys,grapes are excellent goods (and much preferable to cucumbers).” 中注意 “excellent (極好的)” 與 “ preferable(更好的)” 兩詞,與D選項(xiàng) “for grapes are more attractive(更具有吸引力的)” 意思不一致。綜上分析,A, C, D都不符合文章意思。
2. The underlined statement “it is all too monkey” means that ________.
??? A. monkeys are also angry with lazy fellows
??? B. feeling bitter at unfairness is also monkey’s nature
??? C. monkeys, like humans, tend to be envious of each other
??? D. no animals other than monkeys can develop such feelings
答案解析:答案為B。本題為句意推斷題。結(jié)合文章第一段中 “all too human”前面的內(nèi)容是說當(dāng)?shù)弥獎e人懶惰卻加薪更多的時候,人人都會生氣,這是人的本能。接下來提到的 “it is all too monkey” 也是表達(dá) “猴子受到不公平待遇的時候感到痛苦也是猴子的本能?!钡囊馑?。故答案為B。A選項(xiàng) “猴子對懶惰的同伴也會生氣”, C選項(xiàng) “猴子像人類一樣會彼此嫉妒”, D選項(xiàng) “除了猴子沒有其他的動物會有那種感覺” 都與文章意思不符。
3. Female monkeys of this kind are chosen for the research most probably because they are ___ .
??? A. more likely to weigh what they get
??? B. attentive to researchers’ instructions
??? C. nice in both appearance and behaviors
????D. more ready to help others than their male companions
答案解析:答案為A。本題為細(xì)節(jié)推理題。從文章中第二段 “Above all, like female human beings, they tend to pay much closer attention to the value of “goods and services” than males.” 與第三段 “Such characteristics make them perfect subjects for Doctor Brosnan’s study.” 可知,雌性的猴子作為實(shí)驗(yàn)是因?yàn)樗齻儽刃坌缘暮镒痈雨P(guān)注 “物品與服務(wù)” 的價值。A選項(xiàng) “她們更有可能掂量(weigh)她們得到的”, 與上述分析意思一致,故答案為A。B和D在文章中都未提到;C并不是根本的原因。
4. Which of the following conclusions is TRUE according to the passage?
??? A. Human beings' feelings of anger are developed from the monkeys.
??? B. In the research, male monkeys are less likely to exchange food with others.
??? C. Co-operation between monkeys stays firm before the realization of being cheated.
??? D. Only monkeys and humans have the sense of fairness which dates back to 35 million years ago.
答案解析:答案為C。本題為細(xì)節(jié)理解題。從文章最后一段 “Such co-operation is likely to be firm only when each animal feels it is not being cheated.” 可知,只有當(dāng)每個動物感覺沒有被欺騙的時候合作的態(tài)度才是堅(jiān)定的”, C選項(xiàng)的意思 “意識到被欺騙之前猴子之間的合作非常堅(jiān)定” 與上述分析一致。解答此題注意同義句的轉(zhuǎn)換表達(dá)。A, B, D 與文章意思不符合。
5. What can we infer about the monkeys in Sarah’s study?
? A. The monkeys can be trained to develop social senses.
? ?B. They usually show their feelings openly as humans do.
C. The monkeys may show their satisfaction with equal treatment.
?? D. Co-operation among the monkeys remains effective in the wild.
答案解析:答案為C。本題為推斷題。文章中說,猴子受到不公平待遇的時候會生氣,這句話的意思就是C選項(xiàng)的表達(dá) “猴子受到公平待遇的時候會滿意”,故答案為C。解答此題仍然要注意推理題設(shè)置的技巧:用不同的表達(dá)方式來表達(dá)同樣的意思。
從文章最后一段 “The researches suggest that these monkeys, like humans, are guided by social senses. In the wild, they are co-operative and group-living.” 可知,猴子自身就有社會意識,而不是通過訓(xùn)練獲得,故A錯誤。B,D在文章中未提及。
