[课下练熟高考] 阅读理解·组块专练——练速度 (限时:35分钟) Ⅰ.阅读理解 A (2017·衡阳高三一模)There has been a controversy between animal rights supporters and scientists about whether it is right to use animals to find cures for human diseases in experimental research. Personally, if there are no other alternatives, and if it is possible that this will contribute to science, animals may be used for experimental research. The animal rights supporters label scientists as “cruel” for causing animals to die in medical experiments, while they do not oppose the people, mostly farmers, who kill animals for food. Some even claim that people and animals are equal and they should be treated equally. But can the death of an animal be the same thing as the death of a person? I think causing animals to die for science or for saving human lives may be considered ethical (伦理的), if it will contribute to the advancement of science and human health in general. Another basic argument of animal rights supporters is that people and animals are different genetically. They claim that it will make no good to use animals in experiments because they are too different to be compared to people. Some of them even state that it is better to use people directly as they think that the results of experiments on animals cannot be valid and reliable as long as the same observation has not been done on man. However, these people cannot foresee the disastrous results of such a practice. Many people are likely to die until a healthy result is obtained. People and animals may not be the same, but to some degree, scientists are right to use animal models to do some experiments that could not be achieved in human. There are also a lot of examples which show that using animals resulted in significant developments and helped to cure some serious illnesses. All in all, using animals for medical research is ethical as long as it contributes to scientific development and human health. And this practice is only acceptable on the condition that animals are treated humanely. 语篇解读:本文是一篇议论文,主要论述了动物权利支持者和科学家之间关于用动物进行医学试验研究以寻找治疗人类疾病的方法是否正确的争议。作者认为动物可以被用于医学研究并针对此论点进行了分析论证。 1.Animal rights supporters hold the opinion that ________. A.farmers have the legal rights to kill animals B.causing animals to die for science is acceptable C.scientists are to blame for killing animals for research D.animals and people are not different genetically 解析:选C 细节理解题。根据第二段第一句可知,动物权利支持者认为科学家应对科学研究致使动物死亡负责。故选C。 2.We can infer that the author ________. A.seems to be an animal rights supporter B.does experimental research on animals C.is concerned about the future of animals D.agrees that animals can be used in medical research 解析:选D 推理判断题。根据第一段最后一句及最后一段内容可推知,作者同意用动物进行医学研究。故选D。 3.According to the text, it is a fact that ________. A.it is always illegal to use animals for experimental research B.using animals for medical experiments contributes to curing some serious illnesses C.using people models is against the law and regarded as cruel D.it makes no difference whether to use animals or people for experimental research 解析:选B 细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句可知,B项所述是事实。故选B。 B People have been wondering why elephants do not develop cancer even though they have lifespans (寿命) that are similar to humans, living for around 50 to 70 years. Now scientists believe they know why. A team at the University of Chicago, US has found that elephants carry a large number of genes that stop tumors (肿瘤) developing. To be precise, they found 20 copies of an antitumor gene called TP53 in elephants. Most other species, including humans, only carry one copy. According to the research, the extra copies of the gene improved the animal's sensitivity to DNA damage, which lets the cells quickly kill themselves when damaged before they can go on to form deadly tumors. “An increased risk of developing cancer has stood in the way of the evolution of large body sizes in many animals,” the study author Dr Vincent Lynch told The Guardian. If every living cell has the same chance of becoming cancerous (癌变的), large creatures with a long lifespan like whales and elephants should have a greater risk of developing cancer than humans and mice. But across species, the risk of cancer does not show a connection with body mass. This_phenomenon was found by Oxford University scientist Richard Peto in the 1970s and later named “Peto's paradox (悖论)”. Biologists believe it results from larger animals using protection that many smaller animals do not. In the elephant's case, the making of TP53 is nature's way of keeping this species alive. The study also found that when the same genes were brought to life in mice, they had the same cancer resistance as elephants. This means researchers could use the discovery to develop new treatments that can help stop cancer spreading or even developing in the first place. “Nature has already figured out how to prevent cancer,” said Joshua Schiffman, a biologist at the School of Medicine, University of Utah, US. “It's up to us to learn how different animals deal with the problem so that we can use those strategies to prevent cancer in people.” 语篇解读 :科学家研究发现,大象不患癌症是因为它们的体内有很多阻止肿瘤生长的基因TP53,人类有望通过研究TP53来预防癌症。 4.Why are elephants unlikely to develop cancer? A.They have a rather large body size. B.Their genes suffer no DNA damage. C.Certain genes in their body kill existing tumors. D.They carry many genes to prevent tumors developing. 解析:选D 细节理解题。根据第二段的第二句“A team at the University of Chicago, US has found that elephants carry a large number of genes that stop tumors (肿瘤) developing.”可知,因为大象体内有许多阻止肿瘤生长的基因,所以大象不患癌症,D项正确。 5.According to the passage, what has been a risk in the evolution of large animals? A.Deadly tumors. B.The huge body mass. C.Cells killing themselves. D.Sensitivity to DNA damage. 解析:选A 细节理解题。根据第四段第一句中的“An increased risk of developing cancer has stood in the way of the evolution of large body sizes in many animals”可知,许多大型动物在进化过程中有患癌症的风险,故A项正确。 6.What does the underlined part “This phenomenon” in Paragraph 5 probably refer to? A.Larger animals have protection from TP53. B.The risk of cancer is not related to body size. C.Larger animals suffer the same risk of cancer as smaller ones. D.The huger animals are, the bigger risk of cancer they will have. 解析:选B 指代判断题。根据第四段的最后一句“But across species, the risk of cancer does not show a connection with body mass.”可知,This phenomenon 指代患癌症的风险和动物的大小无关,故B项正确。 7.What can be concluded from the passage? A.Depending on nature is surely enough to fight against cancer. B.The TP53 genes have proved useful in stopping cancer in people. C.Humans are expected to prevent cancer with the making of TP53. D.The extra copies of elephants' genes are used to cure cancer patients. 解析:选C 推理判断题。根据文章的最后一句“It's up to us to learn how ...prevent cancer in people.”并结合上文陈述的在大象身上发现阻止肿瘤生长的基因TP53可以判断,人们有望通过制造TP53来预防癌症,故C项正确。 C “Walt Disney World is banning selfiesticks from its theme parks because selfiesticks have become a growing safety concern for both our guests and cast,” Disney World spokeswoman Kim Prunty said. Under a new policy, which takes effect Tuesday, the poles won't make it past the bag check at any Disney World theme park. The sticks also won't be allowed in Disney World water parks or Disney Quest, a gaming attraction at Downtown Disney. Selfiesticks will also become forbidden at Disneyland Resort in California on June 30. The prohibition begins at Disney's parks in Paris and Hong Kong on July 1. Guests will be checked for the equipment during the routine bag check that happens near the parks' entrances. They will have an option of turning in their selfiesticks for pickup later or to go back to their cars or hotel rooms to keep them. Visitors will be told of the policy in locations such as the parking lots and at the resort's hotels. The prohibition will be added to the park rules post on Disney World's website. The issue has been building at Disney. Previously, the sticks were prohibited from its rides, and “no selfiesticks” signs were at select rides, such as Big Thunder Mountain Railroad at Magic Kingdom. Cast members have given oral warnings to rule breakers. Selfiestick users put smartphones and cameras on the ends of poles to extend their reach, frequently capturing themepark moments through selfportraits. The tools have been banned in public places — including some museums and stadiums — worldwide for obstructing views or causing safety issues. Disney World already prohibits items such as skateboards, inline skates, wagon, folding chairs and glass containers, according to its official website, which also lists “other items that we determine may be harmful”. Universal Orlando has banned selfiesticks and other loose items from certain thrill rides at Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure theme parks, but it has not set parkwide bans. 语篇解读:本文是一篇新闻报道,主要讲述了迪斯尼乐园禁止其各大主题公园使用自拍杆的相关情况。 8.Which of the following objects has already been banned in Disney theme parks before the new policy takes effect? A.Smartphones. B.Folding chairs. C.Cameras.

A.abandon them at the bag check B.get fined and pick them up later C.turn them in to the police D.put them in the trunk of their cars 解析:选D 细节理解题。根据第三段第二句可知,游客可将其放到车子的后备箱。故D项正确。 10.The underlined word in the fifth paragraph probably means “________”. A.changing B.broadening C.blocking D.narrowing 解析:选C 词义猜测题。根据第五段最后一句及常识可推知,高高举起的自拍杆将会遮住游客的视线且存在安全隐患,故画线词“obstructing”意为“阻碍”。block意为“阻止”,与其意思最接近。故C项正确。 11.According to the passage, it can be inferred that ________.

But it is not a distant childhood memory. The words come back to you as clearly as when you sang them all those years ago. Researchers at the University of Edinburgh studied the relationship between music and remembering a foreign language. They found that remembering words in a song was the best way to remember even one of the most difficult languages. Here is what they did. Researchers took 60 adults and randomly divided them into three groups of 20. Then they gave the groups three different types of “listenandrepeat” learning conditions. Researchers had one group simply speak the words. They had the second group speak the words to a rhythm, or beat. And they asked the third group to sing the words. All three groups studied words from the Hungarian language for 15 minutes. Then they took part in a series of language tests to see what they remembered. Why Hungarian, you ask? Researchers said they chose Hungarian because not many people know the language. It does not share any roots with Germanic or Romance languages, such as Italian or Spanish. After the tests were over, the singers came out on top. The people who learned these new Hungarian words by singing them showed a higher overall performance. They did the best in four out of five of the tests. They also performed two times better than those who simply learned the words by speaking them. Dr. Katie Overy says singing could lead to new ways to learn a foreign language. The brain likes to remember things when they are contained in a catchy 3, or memorable 4, tune 5. Dr. Ludke said the findings could help those who struggle to learn foreign languages. On the University of Edinburgh's website Dr. Ludke writes, “This study provides the first experimental evidence that a listenandrepeat singing method can support foreign language learning, and opens the door for future research in this area.” 语篇解读:本文是一篇科普说明文,主要讲述了一项有关音乐和外语学习之间存在关系的研究。 12.The “song” mentioned in the first paragraph is intended to ________. A.recall the past B.attract the readers C.introduce the topic D.compare the childhood with the present 解析:选C 推理判断题。本文开头通过“song”举例导入话题,从而引出下文对于音乐和外语学习之间关系的研究。故C项正确。 13.According to the passage, which language doesn't share the same root with Germanic or Romance languages? A.Hungarian. B.Spanish. C.Italian. D.English. 解析:选A 细节理解题。根据第五段第二、三句可知,匈牙利语与其没有相同的词根。故A项正确。 14.Based on the last two paragraphs, we can conclude that ________. A.singing is the best way to learn a language B.the brain probably works best when the foreign language learners sing the words C.a listenrepeat method is very effective for any language learner D.Dr. Katie Overy and Dr. Ludke disagree with each other 解析:选B 推理判断题。根据第六段可知,唱歌有助于找到学习外语的新途径。选项A中“the best way”与文意不符;选项C中的“any language learner”表述有误;根据最后两段可知,Dr. Katie Overy与Dr. Ludke两人观点一致,排除D项。故B项正确。 15.In which situation can the finding of the research be applied? A.A mother is going to teach her baby how to speak. B.A child is going to have his first music lesson. C.A student is going to learn a new English song. D.An American is going to learn some Chinese. 解析:选D 推理判断题。根据最后一段第一句可知,此项研究对于外语学习者非常有用。故D项正确。 Ⅱ.阅读七选五 (2017·河北衡水中学一模) Get a Thorough Understanding of Oneself In all one's life time, it is oneself that one spends the most time being with or dealing with.__1__ When you are going upwards in life you tend to overestimate (高估) yourself.

Letters Live, which started in December 2013, was held at the Freemasons' Hall in London from March 10 to 15. The show invited various great performers who read remarkable letters that had been written around the world over the centuries. “Bringing letters alive through outstanding performances is one of the most powerful ways in which the joy and pain and humor and tragedy of being human can be shared,” Jamie Byng, managing director of Canongate Books publishing firm, told the Nowness video channel. British actor Benedict Cumberbatch agreed. “Letters are windows into the love, beauty, pain and humor of their creators and receivers,” he told The Guardian. “Letters Live makes us stop and imagine the lives behind the letters read and where they came from. It's a privilege to read this most ancient of communications live to an audience.” This year, the movie Sherlock star treated the audience by playing the part of a 17year Tom Hanks. He put on the young actor's voice when he read his letter to the Hollywood director George Roy Hill, a letter that urged Hill to “discover” him. The letter revealed that twotime Oscar winner Hanks' teenage dream was not to “be a bigtime Hollywood superstar” but to one day own a Porsche car and call his favorite US actor Robert Redford his nickname “Bob”. Other famous faces at the event included Carey Mulligan, who played a fictional laundry worker, a female activist fighting for women's rights in the 2015 movie Suffragette. The British actress once again played the role of a suffragette, when she read a very enthusiastic letter demanding the vote for women. The suffragette sent a precious 1913 note to The Daily Telegraph newspaper. “Everyone seems to agree upon the necessity of putting a stop to Suffragist anger, but no one seems certain how to do so,” Mulligan read out. “There are two, and only two, ways in which this can be done. Both will be effectual. One, kill every woman in the UK. Two, give women the vote.” 语篇解读:本文是一篇新闻报道。随着通讯科技的发展,写信这种联系方式已经在人们的生活中逐渐淡去,但是信件包涵强大的寓意和情感。作者希望通过这次庆祝活动来激活人们对写信的认识。 4.What was Cumberbatch's attitude towards Jamie Byng's opinion? A.Doubtful. B.Positive. C.Optimistic. D.Cautious. 解析:选B 推理判断题。根据第四段第一、二句及第四段内容可推知,Benedict Cumberbatch对Jamie Byng的观点持支持态度。B项意为“积极的”,符合题意。 5.Which of the following was a dream of Tom Hanks as a child?

A.sends a valuable note to newspaper B.reads out a letter to the audience C.advocates women's right to vote D.plays a famous role in a movie 解析:选C 推理判断题。根据第六段第一句可推知,“suffragette”是指提倡妇女参政论的人,故C项符合题意。 7.What can be a suitable title for the text? A.Famous People Gathering B.Letters of Great Performers C.Letters Brought to Life D.Rights Given to Women 解析:选C 标题归纳题。通读全文可知,本文讲述作者支持“写信”这种联系方式,并介绍在这次庆祝活动中很多名人都把以前的信件念给听众听。C项“把信件带到生活中”适合做本文标题。故C项符合题意。 C We talk about people being “colourblind” but very few of us are.Even those who describe themselves as colourblind are normally just colour lack.A strongly colourblind person will still be able to tell 20 different colours, compared to the 100 or so that normalsighted people see. Pingelap, a tiny island in the Pacific, is a beautiful spot but one that has a genetic trouble. It is known as Colourblind Island because so many people who live on this remote island can only see in black and white. Not being able to see in colour is bad enough. But one islander, Herrol, who's a fisherman, also struggles in full sunlight because all he sees is a painful burntout image. “I find it difficult to go outside in the sun,” he says, “because when it's sunny I cannot see to do my work.” But if being truly colourblind is rare, why is it that around 10% of the population of Pingelap live in a totally black and white world? Well, we know that in 1780 the population of Pingelap was all but wiped out by a tsunami (海啸). As few as 20 people survived, one of whom was the king. It's believed he had a genetic fault that causes colourblindness and he passed this fault on to his many generations. There is one advantage. Herrol can see well, really well, in the dark. So when it gets dark, Herrol and his friends get in their boats and hunt flying fish. They hang up flaming torches and the fish are attracted to the flames. “This type of fishing is fun,” Herrol says, “especially if we catch plenty. So even though it's hard work we enjoy it.” 语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。Pingelap岛因很多居民是色盲而闻名。由于统治该岛的国王是色盲,他将这一基因遗传给了后代。 8.What is Pingelap famous as? A.A tiny island. B.A beautiful island.

The statue would celebrate its century of independence. To ship it, the statue was broken down into 350 pieces. And now, spread across Bedloe's Island in New York Harbour, it sat in 214 wooden packing boxes. The problem was that New York had no money to reassemble it. Six other cities, less affected by the recent economic decline, had the money and bid to build it. But a Hungarian immigrant, Joseph Pulitzer, the owner of America's biggest newspaper called the World, wouldn't let “Liberty” go. When he heard that the Statue of Liberty was about to die from lack of funds, he saw his chance. Pulitzer set the fundraising goal of the World at $100,000. In its pages he laughed at the rich, thus increasing the paper's appeal among workingclass people, and firmly planted the idea that the statue was a monument not just for New York City but, indeed, for all of America. Perhaps Pulitzer's cleverest trick was the promise to publish the name of every single contributor in the pages of the World, no matter how small the contribution. The editorial that opened the fundraising campaign set its tone. He wrote: “The World is the people's paper and it now appeals to the people to come forward and raise the money for the statue's base.” The statue, he said, was paid for by “the masses of the French people. Let us respond in like manner.” The circulation of the World increased by almost 50,000 copies. African American newspapers joined in the effort, encouraging their readers to contribute to a monument that would, in part, celebrate the end of slavery. So the money poured in, as singledollar donations from grandmothers and pennies from the piggybanks of schoolchildren. On August 11, 1885, the front page of the World announced,“ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS!” The goal had been reached, even slightly beyond, thanks to more than 120,000 contributions. 语篇解读: 本文是一篇记叙文。自由女神像是法国送给美国人民的礼物,由于资金问题,女神像的装配出了问题。美国报业大亨Pulitzer为此做了很多努力,最后他终于为自由女神像筹集了足够的资金。 12.What does the underlined word “reassemble” (Para. 1) probably mean? A.Put together. B.Take apart. C.Transport. D.Repair. 解析:选A 词义猜测题。根据第一段可知,自由女神像是法国送给美国人民的礼物,为了运送它,女神像被分解成350块,装在214个木箱里。问题是纽约没有钱来把它重新装配起来。故画线词“reassemble”与put together意思相近,表示重新组装。故A项正确。 13.Which of the following was the greatest move in Joseph Pulitzer's success? A.Attacking the rich people. B.Celebrating the end of slavery. C.Printing every contributor's name in the World. D.Persuading children to donate their pocket money. 解析:选C 细节理解题。根据第四段第一句并结合第二、三段可知,为了不让自由女神像因资金短缺而落入他人之手,Pulitzer发起筹募资金活动,同时还做了一些其他努力。其中最伟大的一项就是把每位捐款人的名字都公布在《世界报》上。故C项正确。 14.What did Joseph Pulitzer try to convey to his readers about the Statue of Liberty? A.It was a symbol of independence. B.It was a monument for the whole USA. C.It was a wonder in the building history. D.It was a favor from the rich French people. 解析:选B 细节理解题。根据第三段第二句可知,关于女神像,Pulitzer想对读者传达的思想就是它是全美国的纪念碑。故B项正确。 15.What was the main purpose of Joseph Pulitzer's efforts? A.To protect the Statue of Liberty. B.To win workingclass readers over. C.To expand the circulation of his paper. D.To raise money for the Statue of Liberty. 解析:选D 细节理解题。根据第三段第一句中的“Pulitzer set the fundraising goal”并结合第三至五段内容可知,Pulitzer所做的努力就是为自由女神像筹集资金。故D项正确。 Ⅱ.阅读七选五 (2017·山西太原市高三模拟试题二) How to get along with your boss In your career, you may have to report to a manager, the person you call boss. __1__ Here are some tips to help you develop an effective relationship with your boss.

Yet would it be __1__ (surprise) if I tell you that high school life in the US is almost as stressful and demanding as it is in China? In US high school, everything __2__ (record) and graded, including your grades on quizzes, tests and final examinations. Failing __3__ (turn) in your homework on time will directly affect your grade for a certain course. Perhaps contrary to __4__ we used to think of the US high school students, they pay great attention to their __5__ (academy) performance to try to get into distinguished university. __6__ they'll be disappointed after graduation from high school. Like university students, US high school students have the __7__ (free) to choose the courses that most interest __8__ (they). Even a 9thgrader can sit __9__ the same classroom as 12thgraders. But this also means he or she has to work very hard, because the teacher will not treat him or her differently just because he or she is a few years __10__ (young). 语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了美国学生的高中生活。 1.surprising 此处是ing型形容词,用来修饰事物,意为“令人吃惊的”。 2.is recorded everything和谓语record之间构成逻辑上的动宾关系,且表示客观情况,故用一般现在时的被动语态,即is recorded,与graded呼应。 3.to turn fail to do sth.意为“不能做某事”,为固定搭配。 4.what 空处引导宾语从句,在从句中作宾语,表示物的概念,故填what。 5.academic 修饰名词应用形容词,故用形容词academic修饰名词performance,作定语。 6.Otherwise 根据语境可知,此处表示否则他们高中毕业后就会感到失望,故用副词otherwise,意为“否则”,作状语。 7.freedom 由定冠词the可知,此处应用名词,即freedom。 8.them 此处应用宾格形式,作动词interest的宾语,故用them。 9.in in the classroom意为“在教室里”,故用介词in。 10.younger 根据上文可知,9年级和12年级的学生比较,自然是年轻一些,故用形容词的比较级形式,即younger。 Ⅱ.短文改错 (2016·济南3月模拟) Dear Steven, I'm glad that you are coming to Beijing this summer vacation.

Thank you! 参考范文: Good morning, everyone! I'm Li Hua from Xingguang Middle School. The topic of my speech is “My Chinese Dream”. As we know, the education of rural areas is falling behind other areas. And the children there are longing for knowledge. Therefore, the problem about the lack of teachers is especially serious. It puzzles me that my parents and friends aren't in favour of my idea of being a rural teacher. And they think I am foolish. I understand their thoughts and feelings, but I think the children in rural areas are in great need of me. I will study hard to go to college, thus realizing my dream. I won't regret my choice. I will struggle for my dream. Come on and join me! Thank you!查看更多
