閱讀理解。閱讀下列短文, 從給的四個選項 (A、B、C和D) 中, 選出最佳選項。
On Friday June 21st,2013,the folks at the annual Sonoma County Fair in California celebrated the 25th anniversary of a rather unusual contest—one that crowns the “World's Ugliest Dog”! And while in most settings a title like this would be considered insulting (無禮的) here,it is liked by both the dog owners who come from all over the world and the visitors that come to cheer the contestants.
To mark this special anniversary,this year's fair that was themed “Dog Days of Summer” featured among other things,including an exhibit featuring the contestants and winners from the last 25 years.
As for the winner? Unlike last year,when he had flown in all the way from London,England,this year's title winner was Chico,California resident Walle,who beat out 29 other equally “ugly contestants”. The refreshing part was that Walle,who happened to be a last minute entrant(參賽者),is not a nearly hairless,Chinese Crested Chihuahua or a mix of both breeds,which have been dominating the contest for many years now. Instead,he is a mutt mix—part beagle,part basset and part boxer.
The four-year-old impressed the judges with his giant head and humped back. As one of them put it,he looked as though he had been photoshopped with pieces from various dogs and maybe a few other animals. It exactly represents the kind of natural “ugliness” they were looking for!
Along with the title,the first time entrant received a cash prize of $1,500 as well as scheduled appearances on NBC's weekend Today on Sunday,the Today Show on Monday and the Jimmy Kimmel Show on Wednesday.
Though the competition may seem unbelievable to some people,it is held just for fun and organized by an animal psychiatrist who not only vets the dogs before they enter the competition to ensure they are healthy,but also has a “pet” talk with them to ensure they are also happy. It is also important to remember all the contestants come from homes where they are loved because of their rather unusual looks. After all,beauty is in the eye of the beholder!

Handball is a hugely popular sport in Europe and Asia, and it is one of the fastest and most exciting sports in the world. It combines basketball and soccer with the attracting saves of water polo.
Handball is played on an indoor court ( the size of two basketball courts ) and there are goals at each end. There are twelve players on each team, two goal keepers and ten field players, but there is a maximum of one goalkeeper and six field players from each team allowed on the court at any one time. The_idea_is_simple:_score more goals than the other team.
The ball is made of leather or a synthetic material and it must be round. The surface must not be shiny or slippery. The size and weight of the ball varies for male and female teams, and adult and junior team.
Handball has the same free-ranging play as basketball, with all players except the goalkeeper constantly moving from attack to defence. The goalkeeper uses hands, feet, head and body to keep out the other team's shots. The origins of handball are unclear. Many people believe that it developed as a training game for soccer, to be played in the off season, or when it was snowing. Now, in countries where handball is popular, players can earn large sums of money, and indoor stadiums seating over ten thousand people sell out regularly. Handball has been played at the Olympics since 1972.

2016高考訓(xùn)練題----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。
While students in Yinchuan are quite used to clear skies, Beijing teenagers are not so lucky. As another warm winter approaches, the city can expect the normal clouds of smoke caused by air pollution.
But things may start to improve soon. The government is co-operating with a US-based environmental protection agency to update existing buses and trucks with clean fuel technology. The new technology could reduce air pollutants in existing diesel engines(柴油機(jī))by 40 percent. The programme will begin by testing buses in Beijing to see if the technology can be applied to them.
“We encourage the development of public transports. But at the same time we need to reduce pollution from them, ”said an official.
Efforts are being made to improve the capital’s environment with tighter controls on emissions(排放). Some heavily polluting factories and construction sites, such as those owned by the steel giant Shougang Group, have been asked to cut production in November and December or be closed.
Beijing was the third polluted city in the world at the end of last century, according to the UN. But thanks to recent measures, the capital has made some progress. Last year 224 clear days were rated as having good air quality. In 1998 the air quality index(指數(shù))gave just 100 days as good.
“I am glad to see an improvement, ”said a senior 1 boy living in the northwest of Beijing. “Compared to other places, the air quality of Beijing is still worrying though. I hate pollution. Once I was riding my bike in the morning when I almost had a traffic accident because I couldn’t see a car only metres away from me in fog. ”
In early October, the skies were covered by such a thick fog that a display show by the visiting French Air Force was called off.
Rapid development, industry, traffic fumes and sandstorms from the desert all contribute to the city’s bad air.
29. The passage is mainly about .
A. a programme aiming at improving Beijing’s air quality
B. progress made in Beijing’s air quality
C. Beijing’s air pollution
D. the differences between Yinchuan and Beijing

A. Clean fuel technology will be used in public transports.
B. Some factories have been asked to cut production.
C. Some construction sites have been told to be closed.
D. A display show of airplanes has been called off.
31. We can infer from the passage that, with the aim of being an ecological city, .
A. far more still needs to be done
B. nothing else needs to be done
C. all traffic has to be closed
D. the development of the city has to be slowed down
32. Which of the following is NOT correct according to the passage?
A. Beijing’s air quality is getting worse and worse.
B. Rapid development, industry, traffic fumes and sandstorms are all the causes of bad air quality.
C. People see clouds of smoke in the sky in the winter of Beijing.
D. The government is making efforts to stop air pollution.

Global Positioning Systems are now a part of everyday driving in many countries. These satellite-based systems provide turn-by-turn directions to help people get to where they want to go. But they can also cause a lot of problems, sending you to the wrong place or leave you completely lost. Many times, the driver is to blame. Sometimes a GPS error is responsible. Most often, says Barry Brown, it is a combination of the two.
Barry Brown is with the Mobile Life Centre in Stockholm, Sweden. The center studies human-computer interaction, or HCI, especially communications involving wireless devices. We spoke to Mr Brown by Skype. He told us about an incident involving a friend who had flown to an airport in the eastern United States. There he borrowed a GPS-equipped car to use during his stay.
Barry Brown:“And they just plugged in an address and then set off to their destination.” And, then it wasn't until they were driving for thirty minutes that they realized they had put in a destination back on the West Coast where they lived. They actually put their home address in. So again, the_GPS_is_kind_of_“garbage_in_garbage_out”.
Mr Brown says this is a common human error. But, he says, what makes the problem worse has to do with some of the shortcomings, or failures, of GPS equipment.
Barry Brown:“One problem with many GPS units is they have a very small screen and they just tell you the next turn. Because they just give you the next turn, sometimes that means that it is not really giving you the overview that you would need to know that it's going to the wrong place.”
Barry Brown formerly served as a professor with the University of California, San Diego. While there, he worked on a project with Eric Laurier from the University of Edinburgh. The two men studied the effects of GPS devices on driving by placing cameras in people's cars. They wrote a paper based on their research. It is called “The Normal, Natural Troubles of Driving with GPS.”
Barry Brown: “One of the things that struck us, perhaps the most important thing was that you have to know what you're doing when you use a GPS. There are these new skills that people have developed. There are these new competencies that you need to have to be able to use a GPS because they sometimes go wrong.”
Barry Brown says this goes against a common belief that GPS systems are for passive drivers who lack navigational (導(dǎo)航) skills.
“The Normal, Natural Troubles of Driving with GPS” lists several areas where GPS systems can cause confusion for drivers. These include maps that are outdated, incorrect or difficult to understand. They also include timing issues related to when GPS commands are given.
Barry Brown says to make GPS systems better we need a better understanding of how drivers, passengers and GPS systems work together.
文章大意:本文是一篇說明文。GPS全球定位系統(tǒng)可以幫助人們找到想去的地方,但GPS也會帶來許多問題,所以使用GPS全球定位系統(tǒng)是否可靠變得不確定。
5.What is the best title for this passage?
A.Is GPS system reliable to use?
B.What is the use of GPS?
C.How to make the most of GPS?
D.Blame! GPS or Passengers?
6.What is the implication of the underlined part?
A.GPS is just a garbage device.
B.GPS will not correct human errors.
C.GPS adjusts your wrong destination.
D.GPS is just as smart as human beings.
7.Which is NOT mentioned as a GPS shortcoming in the passage?
A.Small screen.
B.Timing of commands.
C.Outdated maps.
D.Dear cameras GPS uses.
8.According to the passage, people commonly believe that ________.
A.you have to know where to go when using GPS
B.you need to have new competencies to use GPS well
C.GPS is proper for drivers with little sense of direction
D.GPS is fit for people having good understanding of maps
答案:C 推理判斷題。通讀全文可知,人們普遍認(rèn)為,GPS全球定位系統(tǒng)適合方向感差的人。C項符合文義,故答案選C。
