Scientists said the planet was the closest to Earth that has been seen.Kepler 452b, which has been named Earth 2, is six billion years old. It has a 385-day year and orbits its star at the same distance as us. It is so like Earth that NASA believes it is possible that life once inhabited the planet. Kepler 452b is 60 percent larger in diameter (直径) than Earth. Scientists say that the planet received the same kind of sunshine as we do on Earth. Thus, plants could survive if taken to the planet.Since the planet is 1.5 billion years older than Earth, scientists say it can show a possible future for earth. “If Kepler 452b is indeed a rocky planets, its location could mean that it is just entering an uncontrollable greenhouse period of its climate history.” Said Doug Caldwell, a scientist working on the Kepler Mission.According to Caldwell, the increasing energy from its aging sun might be heating the surface and evaporating any oceans. Kepler 452b could be experiencing now what Earth will undergo more than a billion years from now, as the Sun ages and grows brighter.The discovery also gives new hope that alien(外星人) civilizations may exist beyond the Solar System. “We won’t be going to this planet but our children’s children’s children might be.” said Jeff Coughlin, another research scientist on the Kepler Mission.The Kepler space telescope (太空望远镜) has been looking for signs of new worlds outside the Solar System since May 2009, and has so far found more than 4,000 planets. But those planets are either too hot or too cold to sustain life.（注：Kepler Mission NASA 设计的发现类地行星的太空探索任务）1. The following statements about Kepler 452b (Earth 2) are all correct except ________.A. It has existed for six billion years.B. It is 60% larger in diameter than the earth.C. It has already entered an uncontrollable greenhouse period of its climate historyD. It is the closest planet to the earth.2. The importance of the discovery of Earth2 lies in the fact that Earth2 ________.5① can show a likely future for the earth② gives new hope that alien civilizations may exist beyond the Solar System③ proves that life once inhabited the planet④ proves that plants can survive on other planets apart from the eartth.⑤ is going through now what the earth will undergo more than a billion years from nowA. ④⑤ B. ①③ C. ②④ D. ①②3. What can we infer from the text?A. The earth has existed for about 4.5 billion years.B. Kepler 452b is one of the planets in the Milky Way.C. Doug Caldwel and Jeff Coughlin are both research scientists on the Kepler Mission.D. More than 4,000 planets outside the Solar System still cannot sustain life now.1. C. 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“…its location could mean that it is just entering an uncontrollable greenhouse period of its climate history.”可知，“它的位置可能意味着它正在进入它的气候历史中不可控制的温室阶段”的说法只是一种推想，而不是已经进入了。句中的“could”是关键词，它表明了一种假想的情况。故答案为 C 项。2. D. 细节理解题。根据第三段第一句话和第五段第一句话可知，答案应为 D 项。3. A. 推理判断题。根据第二段第一句话“Kepler 452b, which has been named Earth 2, is six billion years old.”和第三段第一句话中的“Since the planet is 1.5 billion years older than Earth,…”可以推知答案应为 A 项。即地球存在的时间是：（6 billion –1.5billion = 4.5 billion）年。其余各项虽然表述是正确答，但都是原文直接提到的内容，不是推断出来的。阅读理解。阅读下列短文, 从给的四个选项 (A、B、C 和 D) 中, 选出最佳选项。Like many people you may be dreaming of a career as a rock and roll star. There are two ways to go about getting one. First there is the traditional way. Find some friends and form a group. Learn to play the guitar or the drums. Write your own songs. Spend hours arguing about the band name. Then go on the road.The next step is to spend a year or two touring. If you are good, the crowds will get bigger. In the end an artist from a record company may come to a show. If he or she likes you，there may be a deal. This is the route traditionally followed by bands in the music industry. Success means fame and wealth. And failure gives you some interesting stories to tell your 6children.Over the last few years a different path to success has become known. Boy bands like Boyzone and girl bands like the Spice Girls don't come together on their own.They are created by managers and record companies.Their image is strictly controlled. Professional song writers usually write their music. This is a convenient arrangement and the public seems to love the result.Though boy and girl bands have become very popular recently，there is a long tradition of making music in this way. In the early 1960's an American businessman called Berry Gordy founded Motown Records. Motown is short for “motor town”. The record company was based in the city of Detroit, where thousands of African­Americans had moved to work in the car industry. They brought with them a cultural tradition of writing and performing music. This style later became known as “soul music”. Berry Gordy was a diamond miner. He took raw talent from the street and polished it until it shone. Motown stars were not just given songs to sing. They were also taught how to dress well and speak properly.1．In the first paragraph the writer seems to tell us ________.A. to form a band is very hardB. the name of the band is very importantC. newly­built bands can only perform by roadD. to form a band is very simple答案：D 推断题。依据第一段中“First.”所在的句子可看出作者认为组成一个乐队非常简单。2．If a newborn band wants to succeed, as the writer tells, it must have the chance________.A. to travel in big citiesB. to perform before an artistC. to make an agreement with a record companyD. to experience failure again and again答案：C 细节题。根据第二段中“In the end an artist from a record company may come to a show. If he or she likes you, there may be a deal.”可知 C 项正确。3．From the fourth paragraph，we can conclude that ________.A. Motown was only enjoyed by the workers in DetroitB. Motown showed the style of the black AmericansC. Detroit used to be famous for its music industryD. Detroit was founded by African­Americans答案：B 细节题。依据该段中“ where thousands of African­Americans had moved to work in the car industry.”而确定选 B 项。4．From the passage, we can learn that Motown stars________.7A. used to be minersB. used to dress poorlyC. became perfect little by littleD. came from Berry Gordy's hometown答案：C 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“He took raw talent from the street and polished it until it shone.”可知 C 项是最佳选项。【2016 高考训练题】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。At the beginning of every year we promise ourselves we will live a healthier life, and exercise more. The year tarts with the best of intentions, but many times we are unable to keep up with very high goals. Good news is that a healthy lifestyle is achievable and it's all about making small changes that make a difference.News on healthy lifestyles says that the key is moderation and consistency. There are so many health and well-being products out there in the market promising many things. And although many may be true, select carefully.The basics of a healthy lifestyle is maintaining a balanced diet and doing regular exercise. By eating well, it means really to make sure you include plenty of vegetables and fruit preferably in season in your diet, avoid fried and junk foods and foods high in sugar as well as processed foods. Eating fresh homemade meals rather than ready-made meals, which are high in salt and sugar, is always the better option. Reducing alcohol intake, drinking plenty of water and supplementing your diet with healthy snacks like nuts and seeds.For external care choose natural skin care products and hair care oil. Natural beauty care involves using natural moisturizers（保湿剂）like Argan oil, Coconut oil and Sweet Almond oil. These nourish（滋养） the skin far more than counter creams full of chemicals. Skin reflects what we put inside of us, so a healthy diet with plenty of greens and healthy protein will make your skin brighter.Of course exercise is essential but the key is regular and consistent exercise. So walking three times a week for 45 minutes is much more beneficial than a binge workout once a week.1. Why can't we keep up with our goals according to the passage?A. The goals are too high to achieve.8B. We have a large amount of work to do.C. We are naturally lazy and never do exercise.D. The reason isn't given in the passage.2. It can be inferred from the passage that _______.A. we should think twice before choosing heath productsB. the key to a healthy lifestyle is getting enough sleepC. food high in salt and sugar is the best choice for usD. we should walk once a day for a healthy lifestyle3. What can we learn from the passage?A. We cannot form a healthy lifestyle if we are busy.B. We can eat some junk food in order to save money.C. Our skin shows whether we have a healthy diet.D. Health products are not good for our health.4. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. How to achieve our goals.B. The best way to take exercise.C. How to make a difference in life.D. Suggestions for a healthy lifestyle.参考答案、DA CD 1广东紫金县 2017 高考英语语法填空类阅读一轮练习短文语法填空。阅读下列材料，在空白处填上适当的内容(1 个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。(2015·新疆乌鲁木齐地区二诊)I had a disease，__61__made my life difficult and demanding.

cooler in your local convenience store.A new drink is taking up more and more space on the shelves，and that drink is water.Bottled water sales in the US rose to 1.7 billion gallons in 2010 for plastic bottles alone，compared to total sales of only 700 million gallons in 1990.Whereas bottled water was once associated only with the rich and the privileged (特权阶层)，it is now regularly drunk by people at all income levels despite the fact that the price of bottled water can be between 240 and 10,000 times higher per gallon than tap water.What accounts for this surprising increase in demand?Traditionally，people have drunk bottled water for health reasons.The practice of “taking the waters” originated with the Romans，who believed that a person developed a healthy mind by building a healthy body.Across Europe，drinking or bathing in mineral water has been associated with the power to cure various diseases.Health spas at Evian in France and Pellegrino in Italy began bottling water so that their consumers could continue their treatments at home.The consumers in the 21st century are also concerned about health.However，in America，where the habit of drinking bottled water is relatively new，the concern is often more related to the purity or sterilization (消毒) of the water than to its 5mineral contents.Americans are often worried about the effects of the chemical pollution and other contaminants on the water supply.Many Americans view bottled water as a safe alternative to tap water.Further reasons for drinking bottled water are its usefulness as an aid to digestion，as a complement to a good meal in a restaurant，and for taste.City tap water is often treated with chlorine (氯) to guard against harmful micro­organisms.Chlorine，as well as metals from pipes and tanks used to distribute and store tap water，can leave behind an unpleasant taste.【语篇解读】 本文从两个方面分析了瓶装水销量提高的原因。1．Which of the following statements is true?A．Bottled water was once drunk both by the rich and the poor.B．Bottled water sales have risen，for it’s cheaper than tap water.C．Europeans believed in the power of treatment of mineral water.D．Americans have had the habit of drinking bottled water for long.解析 正误判断题。由文章第二段的第三句可知，在整个欧洲，饮用或用矿泉水洗澡已经与治愈各种疾病的能力联系起来。答案 C2．People prefer bottled water because________.A．it does good to their healthB．it has chlorine to make it taste goodC．it contains no mineral pollution at allD．it’s a practice originated with the Romans解析 细节理解题。由文章第二段的第一句“Traditionally，people have drunk bottled water for health reasons.”可知答案。答案 A3．The underlined word “contaminants”

for the passage?A．How Bottled Water OriginatedB． “Taking the Waters” Has Been Practiced for LongC．What’s the Safe Alternative to Tap Water D．Why Bottled Water Sales Increase解析 主旨大意题。文章第一段的最后一句“What accounts for this surprising increase in 6demand？”是一个承上启下的句子，下面两段都在讲瓶装水销量上涨的原因。答案 D【2015 高考复习】阅读理解For anyone who is determined to be a fashion designer，it is not enough to have succeeded in college.The real test is whether they can survive，and become established during their early 20s，making a name for themselves in the real world where business skills can be as important as talent and creativity.Fashion is a hard business.There is a continuous amount of stress because work is at a constant and extremely fast speed to prepare for the next season’s collections.It is extremely competitive and there is the constant need to make attractive advertisements of the latest fashion in newspapers and magazines.It also requires continual freshness because the appetite for new ideas is hard to satisfy.“We try to warn people before they come to us about how tough it is.” says Lydia Kemeny，Head of Fashion at St.Martin’s School of Art in London.“And we point out that drive and determination are absolutely necessary.”This may seem far removed from the popular opinions of fashionable young people spending their time designing pretty dresses.That may well be what they do in their first year of study but a good college won’t be slow in introducing students to commercial realities， “We don’t walk our foot on the blossoming flower of creativity but in the second year we start introducing the restrictions of price，producing ability，marketing and so on.”Almost all fashion design is done to a brief.It is not a form of self­expression as such，although there is certainly room for imagination and creativity.Most young designers are going to end up as employees of a producer or a fashion house and they still need to be able to work within the characteristic style of their employer.Even those students who are most modern in their own taste of clothes may need to adapt to produce designs which are right for the mainstream of the market.They also have to be able to work at both the expensive and the cheap end of the market and the challenge to produce good design inexpensively may well be demanding.【语篇解读】 成为时尚设计师并不是件容易的事。仅仅在大学校园里获取学业的成功是不够的，时尚在不断变化，商业技巧和天赋、创造性同样重要。 5．Which of the following is mainly discussed in the passage?A．Talent in fashion.B．Good marks at college.7C．Ability to create new designs.D．Business skills in fashion industry.解析 主旨大意题。第一段是文章的主题段，通读全文可知整篇文章介绍的是在时尚业应该掌握怎样的商业技巧才能立足。答案 D6．What can we learn from the second paragraph?A．Fashion designers are highly motivated and really detemined.B．Good preparations for the next season can reduce stress.C．Consumers’ appetite for new ideas keeps changing.D．Advertisement business is very competitive.解析 细节理解题。从第二段中的“It also requires continual freshness because the appetite for new ideas is hard to satisfy.”可知消费者对时尚的追求是不断变化的。 答案 C7．What does the underlined word “This” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A．Lydia Kemeny’s opinion.B．The competitive business world.C．The warning to the young designers.D．The real situation in fashion industry.解析 代词指代题。通过阅读第二、三段可知，This 指代的是第二段讲到的内容，即时尚界的真实情况。 答案 D8．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A．St.Martin’s School of Art encourages the new students to design dresses they like.B．St.Martin’s School of Art requires students to develop their creativity in their designing.C．St.Martin’s School of Art demands students to make pretty dresses for companies.D．St.Martin’s School of Art focuses on teaching students commercial realities. 解析 正误判断题。根据第三段的第二句和第三句可知该校重视教学生有关商业方面的知识。答案 D【2016 高考训练题】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。Regardless of the fact that getting dressed in baseball caps and T-shirts are classic American style choices; the preppy(学院风格) look is what sophisticated(高雅时髦的) British youths wear. But when it comes to the best-dressed nation, neither the US nor the UK tops 8CNN’s list. So which country has the best fashion sense? Take a look.ItalyItaly is a country which lays a strong emphasis on outward appearance. Elegance is in Italian blood and most Italians would give up comfort in order to look graceful.
