But the more I thought about it, the more it seemed like an interesting idea.I at least wanted to try it once.Having familiarized myself with how the game works,I set out in search of my first cache. My trip took me through a series of lively hutong（胡同）,past a number of small temples, and right into the courtyard of a quiet youth hotel.I spent several minutes looking around, but couldn't find anything. Just before l was about to give up,I spotted a colorful object in the crack of a wall. Could it be the hidden cache?At that moment agroup of backpackers amved. According to the game's rules, people who are not in the game must not be allowed to find out about secret caches. So I pretended to make a phone call while waiting for them to leave. When the coast was clear,I grabbed the object. It was the cache! I opened it and pulled out a crumpled（皱的）sheet of paper with several names and celebratory messages written on it.I added my own and replaced the cache in its hiding place, ready for the next geocacher to find.It may seem like a simple game, but the idea that there are caches hidden all around us is exciting. Once you're hooked, it's easy to set yourself the goal of finding every single cache in a neighborhood or even an entire city. The real treasure, however, is not the cache itself, but the places it takes you to.Hunting for further caches has since introduced me to places which I didn't even know existed. Some are peaceful parks, while others are forgotten historical sites.A few caches have even been in places I passed regularly without giving them any thought. Now,Ifeel a much closer connection.1. What was the author's initial attitude to geocaching?A. He thought it interesting.B. He wanted to try it at once.C. He showed little interest in it.D. He found it unsuitable for him.2.

D.He has mastered hunting.参考答案 1—4 CDDA 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项。Dubai boasts(夸口) that it has just built a “new global landmark”---the Dubai Tower, which stands 512.1 meters high now and has just become the tallest building in the world.

They are not. They are caused by viruses passing on from person to person. You catch a cold by coming into contact directly or indirectly, with someone who already has one. If cold causes colds, it would be reasonable to expect the Eskimos to suffer from them forever. But they do not. And in isolated Arctic regions, explorers have reported being free from colds until coming into contract again with infected people from the outside world by way of packages and mail dropped from airplanes.3During the First World War, soldiers who spent long periods in the trenches, cold and wet, seldom caught colds.In the Second World War, prisoners at Auschwitz concentration camp, naked and starved, were astonished to find that they seldom had colds.At the Common Cold Research Unit in England, volunteers took part in experiments in which they gave themselves to the discomforts of being cold and wet for long stretches of time. After taking hot baths, they put on bathing suits, allowed themselves to be with cold water, and then stood about dripping wet in a room. Some wore wet socks all day while others exercised in the rain until close to exhaustion. Not one of the volunteers came down with a cold unless a cold virus was actually dropped in his nose. If then, cold and wet have nothing to do with catching colds, why are they more frequent in winter? Despite the most hard research, no one has yet found out the answer. One explanation offered by scientists is that people tend to stay together indoors more in cold weather than at other times, and that makes it easier for cold viruses to be passed on.No one has yet found a cure for the cold. There are drugs and pain-killers such as aspirin, but all that they do is to relieve the symptoms.67. The writer offered ___ examples to support his argument.A. 4 B. 5 C. 6 D. 368. Arctic explorers may catch colds when___.A. they are working in the isolated Arctic regionsB. they are writing reports in terribly cold weatherC. they are free from work in the isolated Arctic regionsD. they are coming into touch again with the outside world69. Volunteers taking part in the experiments in the Common Cold Research Unit___.A. suffered a lot B. never caught colds C. often caught colds D. became very strong70 . The passage mainly discusses___.A. the experiments on the common coldB. the fallacy about the common coldC. the reason and the way people catch coldsD. the continued spread of common colds【答案】 67-70 BDAC阅读下列短文，从每题后所给的四个选项 A、B、C、D 中，选出最佳选项。People diet to look more attractive．Fish diet to avoid being beaten up, thrown out of their social group, and getting eaten as a result．That is the fascinating conclusion of the latest research into fish behavior by a team of Australian scientists．The research team has discovered that subordinate（低一等的） fish voluntarily diet to avoid challenging their larger competitors．“In studying gobies we noticed that only the largest two individuals, a male and female, had breeding （繁殖） rights within the group,” explains Marian Wong．“All other group members are nonbreeding females, each being 5-10% smaller than its next largest competitor．We wanted to find out how they maintain this 4precise size separation．”The reason for the size difference was easy to see．Once a subordinate fish grows to within 5-10% of the size of its larger competitor, it causes a fight which usually ends in the smaller goby being driven away from the group．More often than not, the evicted fish is then eaten up．It appeared that the smaller fish were keeping themselves small in order to avoid challenging the boss fish．Whether they did so voluntarily, by restraining how much they ate, was not clear．The research team decided to do an experiment．They tried to fatten up some of the subordinate gobies to see what happened．To their surprise, the gobies simply refused the extra food they were offered, clearly preferring to remain small and avoid fights, over having a feast．The discovery challenges the traditional scientific view of how boss individuals keep their position in a group．Previously it was thought that large individuals simply used their weight and size to threaten their subordinates and take more of the food for themselves, so keeping their competitors small．While the habits of gobies may seem a little mysterious, Dr．Wong explains that understanding the relationships between boss and subordinate animals is important to understand how hierarchical （等级的） societies remain stable．The research has proved the fact that voluntary dieting is a habit far from exclusive to humans．“As yet, we lack a complete understanding of how widespread the voluntary reduction of food intake is in nature,“ the researchers comment．“Data on human dieting suggests that, while humans generally diet to improve health or increase attractiveness, rarely does it improve long-term health and males regularly prefer females that are fatter than the females' own ideal．“41．When a goby grows to within 5-10% of the size of its larger competitor, it ________．A．leaves the group itself B．has breeding rightsC．eats its competitor D．faces danger42．The underlined words “the evicted fish“ in Paragraph 3 refer to ________．A．the fish beaten up B．the fish driven awayC．the fish found out D．the fish fattened up43．The experiment showed that the smaller fish ________．A．fought over a feast B．preferred some extra foodC．challenged the boss fish D．went on diet willingly44．What is the text mainly about?A．Fish dieting and human dieting． B．Dieting and health．C．Human dieting． D．Fish dieting．【参考答案】41----44 DBDD 由(2012 新课标全国,A)改编Are you looking for some new and exciting places to take your kids to?Try some of these places:●Visit art museums.They offer a variety of activities to excite your kids’ interest.Many offer workshops for making hand-made pieces,traveling exhibits,book signings (签名) by children’s favorite writers,and even musical performances and other arts.●Head to a natural history museum.This is where kids can discover the past from dinosaur models to rock collections and pictures of stars in the sky.Also,ask what kind of workshops 5and educational programs are prepared for kids and any special events that are coming up.●Go to a Youtheater.Look for one in your area offering plays for child and family visitors.Pre-show play shops are conducted by area artists and educators where kids can discover the secret about performing arts.Puppet (木偶) making and stage make-up are just a couple of the special offerings you might find.●Try hands-on science.Visit one of the many hands-on science museums around the country.These science play-lands are great fun for kids and grown-ups alike.They’ll keep your child mentally and physically active the whole day through while pushing buttons,experimenting,and building.When everyone is tired,enjoy a fun family science show,commonly found in these museums.1.If a child is interested in the universe,he probably will visit .

In Spain they are known as “cowboys”. In China, jeans are known as “niuzaiku”, also, “cowboy trousers”, which means they are connected with the American West cowboy culture and outdoor work.Jeans are usually made from denim (粗布), but may also be made from other materials. The earliest known cloth for jeans was a thick cotton cloth from the Indians. At first they were working clothes. They became popular among teenagers in the 1950s. Today jeans are a very popular form of casual wear around the world and come in many styles and colors.Jeans were first made in Genoa in Italy. The trousers were made for the Genoese navy (海军) because they needed trousers which could be worn wet or dry, and whose legs could be easily rolled up while the men were cleaning the ships. These jeans would be washed by pulling them in large fishing nets behind the ship, and the sea water would make them white.In the 1850s Levi Strauss, a business man living in San Francisco, was selling blue jeans under the “Levi’s” name to the coal workers of California.During World War II, the coal workers liked jeans very much because they were strong and did not tear easily. In the 1950s, jeans became popular with young people in the United States. Wearing of blue jeans by teenagers was the symbol of rebels (反叛者) in TV programmes and movies. Some cinemas and restaurants refused to let people in if they wore blue jeans. In the 1980s, jeans finally became high fashion clothing, when famous designers started making their own styles of jeans, with their own labels on them. Sales of jeans went up and up.【小题 1】From the first paragraph we know that ________.

I didn’t know what to expect, so when I saw my first tiger in the wild, I was shocked. What a beautiful and powerful creature it is! But they live with a price on their heads — a single tiger skin is worth up to ￡8,000, and their bones possibly more. Another problem is that farmers need to clear a large number of areas of the forest for their cattle. This means deer are losing their living places. As a result, tigers are losing their natural prey, so they end up eating the cattle.Tigers are not easy to live close to. I met a farmer who had been mauled by one. But despite (尽管) that, he told me everything had its place in the world and he had no right to kill the tiger. He was really kind.Those who work for the Tigers Forever Project realize that to ensure their survival, tigers don’t only need space. They need space away from people.They are working to stop the conflict (冲突) between tigers and people by separating them. I visited a new town. People had been moved to it from a settlement in the forest. And it really has worked. It has given tigers a better life and better opportunities for the children of the resettled people.Only 2,500 tigers are now left in the wild in India. Three out of eight tiger sub-species have already disappeared. Tigers that once lived across Asia only survive in 7% of their original living places now. 1. What does the underlined word “mauled” mean?A. Hunted. B. Injured. C. Frightened. D. Killed.2. The following statements are all the factors reducing the population of tigers EXCEPT that .A. making money drives some people to hunt tigersB. tigers’ food chain is being destroyed C. the living places of tigers are disappearingD. people live far from where tigers live3. We can infer from the last paragraph that . A. there are only 2,500 tigers in the wild in IndiaB. tigers need space far from peopleC. if we don’t protect tigers in Asia, they will die out thereD. children are happy to live far from tigers4. What’s the best title of the passage?A. Expensive tigers. B. More space for tigers. C. Tigers and cattle. D. A kind-hearted farmer. 【参考答案】BDCB 3阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项。 【2016 高考训练】This is a true story of a mother’s sacrifice (牺牲) in an earthquake.When the rescuers reached the ruins of a young woman’s house, they saw her dead body through the cracks. Her pose was somehow strange- she knelt (跪) on the ground like a person who was worshiping (祷告)；her body was leaning forward, and her two hands were supported by an object. However, the cold and stiff body told them that she had passed away for sure.The rescuers left this house and were going to search the next collapsed (倒塌的) building. For some reason, the team leader was driven by a strange force to go back to the ruined house. Again, he knelt down to search the little space under the dead body. Suddenly, he screamed with excitement, “ A child! There is a child!”The whole team worked together; carefully they removed the piles of ruined objects around the dead woman. There was a 3-month-old little boy wrapped in a blanket under his mother’s dead body. Obviously, the woman had made great sacrifice in order to save her son. When her house was falling, she used her body to make a cover to protect her son. The little boy was still sleeping peacefully when the team leader picked him up.A doctor came quickly to examine the little boy. After he opened the blanket, he saw a cellphone inside the blanket. There was a text message on the screen. It said, “ If you can survive, you must remember that I love you.” Everybody that read the message cried.1. Why did the young woman kneel on the ground? A. To protect herself from the earthquake. B. To show respect for God.C. To ask God for help. D. To protect her baby.2.

Such a view, however, fails to explain the ability of some works of art to excite the human mind across cultures and through centuries.History has witnessed the endless productions of Shakespearean plays in every major language of the world. It is never rare to find that Mozart packs Japanese concert halls, as Japanese painter Hiroshige does Paris galleries, Unique works of this kind are different from today’s popular art, even if they began as works of popular art. They have set themselves apart in their timeless appeal and will probably be enjoyed for centuries into the future.In a 1757 essay, the philosopher David Hume argued that because“the general principles of taste are uniform(不变的 ) in human nature,”the value of some works of art might be 4essentially permanent. He observed that Homer was still admired after two thousand years. Works of this type, he believed, spoke to deep and unvarying features of human nature and could continue to exist over centuries.Now researchers are applying scientific methods to the study of the universality of art. For example, evolutionary psychology is being used by literary scholars to explain the long-lasting themes and plot devices in fiction. The structures of musical pieces are now open to experimental analysis as never before. Research findings seem to indicate that the creation by a great artist is as permanent an achievement as the discovery by a great scientist.52. According to the passage, what do we know about cultural relativism?A. It introduces different cultural values.B. It explains the history of artistic works.C. It relates artistic values to local conditions.D. It excites the human mind throughout the world.53. In Paragraph 2, the artists are mentioned in order to show that _____ .A. great works of art can go beyond national boundariesB. history gives art works special appeal to set them apartC. popular arts are hardly distinguishable from great artsD. great artists are skilled at combining various cultures54. According to Hume, some works of art can exist for centuries because_____ .A .they are results of scientific studyB. they establish some general principles of artC. they are created by the world’s greatest artistsD. they appeal to unchanging features of human nature55. Which of the following can best serve as the title of the passage?A. Are Artistic Values Universal? B. Are Popular Arts Permanent?C. Is Human Nature Uniform? D. Is Cultural Relativism Scientific?【考点定位】文化类阅读。【名师点睛】文章内容较为简单，集中考查细节题，对此类题型，考生可以首先从问题中找到关键词然后以此为线索，运用略读及查阅的技巧在文中迅速寻找这一细节找到后再把这一部分内容仔细阅读一遍，仔细比较所给选项与文中细节的细微区别。52.53.54 这三道题分别属于第一段第二段和第三段这个递进的原则，所以定位段落就比较容易而最后一题属于主旨标题，把握整体，提取中心，所以这个阅读理解整体来说目标性比较强。52016 高考英语阅读理解——人物传记/故事类The China Daily newspaper group is looking for English-language senior business editors, senior copy editors, copy editors and graphic designers to strengthen its international team.
