山西保德縣2017高考英語九月閱讀理解校練題(二)
閱讀理解。閱讀下列四篇短文,從每小題后所給的A,B,C或D四個選項中,選出最佳選項。
In business, there's a speed difference:It's the difference between how important a firm's leaders say speed is to their competitive (競爭的) strategy(策略)and how fast the company actually moves.The difference is important regardless of industry and company size. Companies fearful of losing their competitive advantage spend much time and money looking for ways to pick up the speed.
In our study of 343 businesses, the companies that chose to go, go, go to try to gain_an_edge ended up with lower sales and operating incomes than those that paused at key moments to make sure they were on the right track. What's more, the firms that “slowed down to speed up ”improved their top and bottom lines, averaging 40% higher sales and 52% higher operating incomes over a three-year period.
How did they disobey the_laws_of_business_physics,_taking more time than competitors yet performing better? They thought differently about what “slower ” and “faster” mean. Firms sometimes fail to understand the difference between operational speed (moving quickly )and strategic speed (reducing the time it takes to deliver value ). Simply increasing the speed of production, for example, may be one way to try to reduce the speed difference. But that often leads to reduced value over time, in the form of lower-quality products and services.
In our study, higher-performing companies with strategic speed always made changes when necessary. They became more open to ideas and discussion. They encouraged new ways of thinking. And they allowed time to look back and learn. By contrast (相比而言), performance suffered at firms that moved fast all the time, paid too much attention to improving efficiency, Stuck to tested methods, didn't develop team spirit among their employees, and had little time thinking about changes.
Strategic speed serves as a kind of leadership. Teams that regularly take time to get things right, rather than plough ahead full bore, are more successful in meeting their business goals. That kind of strategy must come from the top.
提速,似乎是歷來公司老總們所追求的,增加效益更是他們的最終目標(biāo)。而人們對于速度的不同理解和方法的不同,確實適得其反。
1.What does the underlined part “gain an edge” in Paragraph 2 mean ?
A.Increase the speed. B.Get an advantage.
C.Reach the limit. D.Set a goal.
答案:B。理解判斷題。在文章的第一段中就提到了許多公司提速的目的就是利益問題,信息詞“fearful of losing their competitive advantage”可以表明劃線部分的意義同選項B。
2.The underlined part “the laws of business physics” in Paragraph 3 means ________.
A.spending more time and performing worse
B.spending more time and performing better
C.spending less time and performing worse
D.spending less time and performing better
答案:D。歸納概況題。既然公司追求的是提速,自然意味著:take less time ;而最終的效益還得需要performing better,故兩者結(jié)合,才是公司一直在夢寐以求的最佳目標(biāo)。故選D。
3. What can we learn from the text?
A.How fast a firm moves depends on how big it is.
B.How competitive a firm is depends on what it produces.
C.Firms guided by strategic speed take time to make necessary changes.
D.Firms guided by operational speed take time to develop necessary team spirit.
答案:C。細(xì)節(jié)判斷題。倒數(shù)第二段的第一句里含有本題的信息,即同選項C的說法是一致的。
4.Which could be the best title for the text?
A.Improve quality? Serve better. B.Deliver value? Plough ahead.
C.Reduce time? Move faster. D.Need speed? Slow down.
答案:D。主旨大意題。文章的開頭就已經(jīng)點明了本文的主題方向,即:公司想方設(shè)法提高工作速度;而文中通過分析比較不同公司的不同的做法和他們對于速度不同的理解,如果沒有好的決策,適得其反,故選項D是最佳答案。
閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的四個選項(A、B、C和D)中,選出最佳選項。
【2016高考訓(xùn)練】
Europe’s Mars orbiter (人造衛(wèi)星) has found water molecules (分子) vapourizing (蒸汽化) from the Red Planet’s south pole, scientists announced today, calling it the most direct evidence yet of water in the form of ice on the Martian surface.
A picture taken by Mars Express, January 15, 2004 from a height of 273 km shows a channel (Reull Vallis) once formed by flowing water east of the Hellas basin on Mars.
The search for water on Mars – which could be a sign of life – has greatly interested scientists for centuries. Mars watchers have long believed that the planet’s poles contain frozen water, but scientific findings in the past – including NASA’s Mars Odyssey orbiter’s evidence of large amounts of ice – were based more on inferences (推論), European Space Agency scientists said.
While Mars Odyssey has been able to indirectly show the presence of water at the pole using temperature monitors, the European camera has for the first time been able to map the polar cap using infrared technology that shows where water molecules are present, said scientist Jean-Pierre Bibring.
If Mars once had surface water, there were possibility for it to support life, although members of the European project have said that it remains too early to draw conclusions.
NASA’s Mars Odyssey, which has orbited the planet for two years, previously turned up evidence of lots of ice mixed with the soil, as little as 40 centimetres from the surface. \
James Garvin, lead scientist for NASA’s Mars exploration program, told the Associated Press today that Mars Express had offered further confirmation of what scientists have long known: “Mars is a water planet.”
At a news conference earlier, he said the Express’s results were “not unexpected.”
“That’s wonderful results, it’s instant science, and I think scientists are going to want some time to think about what that means in the context of what we’re learning.”
As far back as 1940, scientists using telescopes saw vapours they believed indicated the presence of water. But in the 1960s the first Mars mission showed the planet to be frozen, dry and covered with craters (隕石坑) and deep ravines (溝壑).
1. Which of the following statements is TRUE according the the text?
A. Mars Express is also called the Red Planet.
B. Mars Express is a robot which has walked on Mars.
C. Odyssey is an American man-made satellite which orbits Mars.
D. Mars orbiter has found flowing water east of the Hellas basin on Mars.
2. Mars Express _______________.
A. used temperature monitors to detect water B. used infrared technology to detect water
C. set up cameras on Mars to take pictures D. used telescopes to detect water
3. James Garvin said the Express’ results were not unexpected because ______________.
A. as far back as 1940 scientists already found water on Mars
B. in the 1960s scientists found in the first Mars mission that Mars was a dry planet
C. it is well known to all that Mars is a water planet
D. scientists had got indirect evidence of the presence of water on Mars long before
4. Which of the following is the best title for this text?
A. Scientists Confirm Water on Mars
B. Europe’s Mars Orbiter
C. Mars Exploration
D. Unexpected Discovery

In his lowest days when few people bought his records, Taiwan singer Steve Chou (周傳雄) lived alone in Canada and did little. One day, he passed by a local CD store and accidentally heard a song that greatly enchanted (迷住) him. His passion for music was suddenly rekindled (重新點燃).
“My heart tells me that music is the thing I truly want to do, not for fame or money,” Chou told Teens. “So I asked myself, ‘why not start all over again?’”
That's how we luckily regained this music genius, who has since then composed lots of hits for the pop music charts (排行榜). His emotional voice is enthralling (迷人的). "Sometimes we need to get close to nature to look deeply into our souls and see what we genuinely (真正地) want to follow," he said.
Following the success of Turkey in Blue, he has recently released his latest work Lovers Genesis. In this album he explores human relationships in the Internet age. This time, he takes the role of a calm observer rather than a struggling insider. "Technology itself is a good thing, but it depends on how you're going to use it," is Chou's advice to teenagers. Chou often gets his music ideas from trips. He has traveled to many places around the world and believes that learning a country's language is the fastest way of experiencing the culture behind it.

Mapping Your World
Different forms of maps are appearing.They allow independent travelers to get local knowledge of places they are visiting,from the official to the unusual.Meanwhile,hi-tech developments are creating new ways for us to map the world.Here are two of our favorites:
Green Maps
Green Maps allows people to share with the world their knowledge of environmentally friendly places and attractions in the local areas. Users add information with a set of icons(圖標(biāo)),making it easy to read any map, whatever the nationalities of those who produce it . At present there are over five hundred map projects being developed in 54 countries. Green Maps' advertised idea is “think global,map local”.It is a wonderful way of gaining all sorts of information of a place ,ranging from community gardens to good places of birdwatching.
Green Maps is not specifically intended for travelers. Not all of its maps are online, so it may be necessary for some users to communicate with the producers through the Green Maps website.
Map Mashups
Many people use online maps developed by Google, but not many know about the mashups of them. Working in a similar way to Green Maps, Map Mashups allows people to add icons of their own to existing maps to express a certain topic. The mashups is so called because it combines all the knowledge you could ever need. It ranges from the extremely useful, such as where all the World Heritage Sites are, to the most bizarre (古怪的),such as where America's drunkest cities are.With the mashups added to the basic Google Maps, a multi-layered (多層的) map can be created.
本文講述了人們最喜歡的地圖,一種是Greens maps,另一種是Maps Mashups。他們的共同特點是人們可以在網(wǎng)上編輯地圖。
1.According to the passage,which of the following is a characteristic of Green Maps?
A.Aiming at environmental protection.
B.Introducing local attractions with icons.
C.Offering advice to independent travelers.
D.Collecting icons worldwide for local maps.

2.Which of the following icons is most probably NOT used in Green Maps?
答案:B。細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段第二句話“It's a wonderful way...to good places of bird watching”可知答案為B。
3.“Map Mashups” is named with the word “mashups”because ________.
A.it is produced by users all over the world
B.it gathers various kinds of information
C.it shares icons with Green Maps
D.it is a branch of Google Maps
答案:B。由最后一段的第三句話可知,為什么用“mashups”這個名,是因為它把所有的知識都結(jié)合起來,從最有用的到最古怪的。由此可知B項正確。
4.What do Green Maps and Map Mashups have in common?
A. They are created by local people.
B. They are environmentally friendly.
C. Users can edit maps on the Internet.
D. Users need to communicate with producers.
答案: C。細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文最后一段第二句話“Working in a similar way to Greens Maps,Map Mashups allows people to add icons of their own to existing maps to express a certain topic.”可知C項正確。
2016高考英語訓(xùn)練--閱讀理解。
閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的四個選項(A、B、C、D)中,選出最佳選項。
The flag, the most common symbol of a nation in the modern world, is also one of the most ancient. With a clear symbolic meaning, the flag in the traditional form is still used today to mark building, ships and other vehicles related to a country.
The national flag as we know it today is in no way a primitive artifact. It is , rather, the product of thousands of years’ development. Historians believe that it had two major ancestors, of which the earlier served to show wind direction.
Early human beings used very fragile houses and boats. Often strong winds would tear roofs from houses or cause high waves that endangered travelers. People’s food supplies were similarly vulnerable (易受損害的). Even after they had learned how to plant grains, they still needed help from nature to ensure good harvests. Therefore they feared and depended on the power of the wind, which could bring warmth from one direction and cold from another.
Using a simple piece of cloth tied to the top of a post to tell the direction of the wind was more dependable than earlier methods, such as watching the rising of smoke from a fire. The connection of the flag with heavenly power was therefore reasonable. Early human societies began to fix long pieces of cloth to the tops of totems (圖騰)before carrying them into battle. They believed that the power of the wind would be added to the good wishes of the gods and ancestors represented by the totems themselves.
These flags developed very slowly into modern flags. The first known flag of a nation or a ruler was unmarked: The king of China around 1008 B.C. was known to have a white flag carried ahead of him. This practice might have been learned from Egyptians even further in the past, but it was from China that it spread over trade routes through India, then across Arab lands, and finally to Europe, where it met up with the other ancestor of the national flag.
8. The best title for the passage would be_________________
A. Uses of Flags B. Power of the National Flag
C. Type of Flags D. Development of the National Flag
9. The earliest flags were connected with heavenly power because_____________
A. they could tell wind direction
B. they could bring good luck to fighters
C. they were believed to stand for natural forces.
D. they were handed down by the ancestors
10. What does the author know of the first national flag?
A. He knows when it was sent to Europe.
B. He believes it was made in Egypt.
C. He doubts where it started
D. He thinks it came from China.
11. What will the author most probably talk about next?
A. The second ancestor of the national flag.
B. The role of China in the spread of the national flag.
C. The use of modern flags in Europe.
D. The importance of modern flags.
