1湖南祁东县 2017 高考英语暑假阅读理解选练（二）2016 高考模拟题。阅读理解。阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C 和 D）中，选出最佳选项。 Many cities have subways and underground public transportation to take locals and tourists alike rapidly around the city．However, there’s something different about riding a London subway．It may not look different, but the historical value of one of England’s most popular forms of transportation is enough to make riding the subway a must when visiting London．With a little under 100 different stations, the subway can take you almost anywhere you need to go．Riding a London subway, a person from other countries will notice one major difference: in London, people do not look at each other．In fact, eye contact is avoided at all times．That’s not rudeness ― people are just too busy to bother looking．Busy doing what, you ask? Well, they’re certainly not using the time for a moment of quiet thinking．Nor are they reading a book．New technology has replaced quiet habits．Today the only acceptable form of book on the London underground is an e-book．Apple must earn a fortune from London commuters（使用月票上下班者）．Since the launch of the iPhone in 2007, over 40,000―yes, that’s 40,000 “apps” have been designed．Commuters love them because they are the perfect time-fillers．One “app”, called iShoot, is a game that features tanks．Another one, Tube Exits, tells passengers where to sit on the train to be closest to the exit of their destination．iSteam clouds the iPhone screen when you breathe into the microphone．You can then write in the “steam” on your phone screen．For those without an iPhone, another Apple product, the iPod, may be the distraction（消遣）of choice．It’s not just teenagers who “plug in” to their music－iPods are a popular way to pass the time for all ages．And if games, e-books and music aren’t enough to keep you occupied, then perhaps you would prefer a film? The development of palm DVD technology means many commuters watch their favorite TV shows or films on the way to work．With all these distractions, it’s amazing that people still remember to get off the train．1．Those who want to save time to reach where they go can download ______ to their iPhones．A．iShoot B．Tube Exits C．iSteam D．iPod 22．People in London do not make eye contact on the subway because ______．A．they are going to work and have no time to communicate with each otherB．they love reading books and do not want to be disturbedC．they feel sleepy because of getting up earlyD．they are busy playing games, reading e-books, listening to music or watching films3．The underlined word “apps” in the fourth paragraph means ______．A．computers B．programs downloaded for the iPhone C．computer companies D．fortune from London commuters4.．The main idea of the passage is that ______．A．London commuters are unfriendly to strangersB．Apple has earned a lot of money from selling 40,000 appsC．technology is changing how London commuters spend their traveling timeD．riding a London subway is a must when visiting London1.B 细节理解题。根据 Another one, Tube Exits, tells passengers where to sit on the train to be closest to the exit of their destination．故选 B。2.D 细节理解题。根据最后一段可知人们在地铁里没空看别人，是因为大家都忙于玩游戏读电子书听音乐或看电影，故选 D。3B 词义猜测题。根据 have been designed 可知它是电脑里已经设计好的程序，故选 B。4C 主旨大意题。整篇短文叙述了伦敦的人们是怎样打发他们在做地铁的时间的，故选 C。阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C 和 D）中，选出最佳选项。 【2014 第一次诊断性考试】An alcohol breath test (ABT) is often used by the police to find out whether a person is drunk while driving. In the United States, the legal blood alcohol limit is 0.08% for people aged 21 years or older, while people under 21 are not allowed to drive a car with any level of alcohol in their body. A “positive” test result, a result over the legal limit, allows the police to arrest the driver. However, many people who tested positive on the test have claimed that they only drank a “non-alcoholic” energy drink. Can one of these energy drinks really cause someone to test positive on an ABT? Researchers in Missouri set up an experiment to find out.First, the amount of alcohol in 27 different popular energy drinks was measured. All but 3one had an alcohol level greater than 0.005%. In nine of the 27 drinks, the alcohol level was at least 0.096%.The scientists then investigated the possibility that these small levels of alcohol could be discovered by an ABT. They asked test subjects to drink a full can or bottle of an energy drink and then gave each subject an ABT one minute and 15 minutes after the drink was finished.For 11 of the 27energy drinks, the ABT did find the presence of alcohol if the test was given within one minute after the drink was taken. However, alcohol could not be discovered for any of the drinks if the test was given 15 minutes after the drink was consumed. This shows that when the test is taken plays an important role in the test result. The sooner the test is conducted after the consumption of these drinks, the more likely a positive alcohol reading will be obtained.39. What is the legal alcohol level for a 20-year-old driver in the US?A. 0.000%. B. 0.005%. C. 0.080%. D. 0.096%.40. What is the purpose of the Missouri experiment?A. To warn people of the dangers of drinking energy drinks.B. To introduce a new method of calculating blood alcohol levels.C. To discover the relation between energy drinks and ABT test results.D. To change the current legal alcohol limit for drivers in the United States.41. The underlined word “subjects” in Paragraph 2 refers to_____.A. the things that are being discussed B. areas of knowledge studied in schoolC. the person in an experiment D. the people who belong to a country42. Which of the following affects the ABT test result most for energy drink consumers?A. The age of the person who takes the test.B. The place where the test is given.C. The equipment that the test uses.D. The time when the test is taken.【参考答案】39、AC 41-45 CD 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。【2014 第一次诊断性考试】An American educational expert, Frederick M. Hess, says that a long summer vacation doesn’t make sense in today’s world.This summer, 50 million kids will spend much time talking online, watching TV, playing 4video games and asking older brothers or sisters to take them to the supermarket. They will also be putting their academic futures at risk.During much of the 20th century, many Americans worked in factories that did not need a college degree but still offered a high salary. Also, in the 19th century, there was no air condition. And poor hygiene (卫生) meant that crowded schools had health risks.Things have changed. For today’s students, academic skills are key to future success. Many countries don’t give kids an American-style summer vacation. They offer no more than seven consecutive (连续的 ) weeks of vacation. Most American school districts offer up to 13 weeks. To compete in global marketplace, Americans must be prepared to go up against international competitors.Summer vacation also causes challenges for today’s families. In the 1960s, more than 60% of families had a stay-at-home mum. Now, two-thirds of American children live families where every adult works. For these families, summer vacation can be more burden than break. Someone must watch the kids. But the biggest problem may be how summer vacation hurts academic achievement. Scientist have found that disadvantaged students lose important ground in the summertime.A school year can allow time-limited teachers to conduct richer and more imaginative lessons. Schools would have more time for sports, languages, music and the arts.43. Before the 20th century, a long summer vacation might ______.A. reduce income for AmericansB. reduce health risks for studentsC. cause career failure for AmericansD. cause loss in global market for America44. How long does an American-style summer vacation last？A. No more than two months. B. Less than three months.C. As long as three months. D. As long as four months.45. According to the text, who will benefit from a long school year?A. American students, teachers and parents.B. American students, parents and shop owners.C. American students, parents and international competitors.D. American students, teachers and international competitors.46. How many reasons did the writer give to support his/her opinion?A. One. B. Two. C. Three. D. Four.【参考答案】43、BCA 46、 D 5阅读理解(每题 2 分，满分 8 分)选材相似度：★★★★设题相似度：★★★难度系数：★★★★Modern science suggests that a healthy lifestyle matters much to how long you can live and how well you live.Here are some tips for you to form a healthy lifestyle.Keep a scientific diet.Keep in mind that sugar can be removed from our diet completely.Over intake of sugar is one of the main reasons for getting fat.Over intake of protein or fat and low intake of fiber can also lead to getting fat.Only a few grams of protein do we need every day to keep our body in order.Like rain to crops，not the more the better.Be always in a good mood.There is a relationship between the mood and health.A good mood keeps you in high spirits.Thanks to the Internet，we can enjoy and learn much without going out.Take a look at some online shops and pick up some bargains，enjoy music and movies and chat with good friends.Just keep happy.Enough sleep.Two studies show the reasons why teens and adults don't have enough sleep.With teens，a major reason is mobile phone use; with adults，it's work.Meanwhile，a third study of young children shows that lack of sleep in early life may lead to serious problems in future.Everyone needs at least 8­hour sleep to recover from tiredness and the hurt caused by hard work in the daytime.Proper exercise.Do exercise to keep away from fatness.Because of the quick pace of the modern life，you don't have time to do exercise every day，but at least three times a week and 45 minutes each time.Notes：①remove vt.移除 ②protein n．蛋白质长短句分析：Modern science suggests that a healthy lifestyle matters much to how long you can live and how well you live.句法点睛：本句为主从复合句。Modern science suggests 为主句，a healthy lifestyle matters much为宾语从句，作 suggests 的宾语，how long you can live and how well you live 为并列的宾语从句，作介词 to 的宾语。句意：现代科学表明，健康的生活方式对于你的寿命和生活质量有着重大的影响。【语篇解读】 健康的生活方式对人们越来越重要，本文就如何养成健康的生活方式提供了几点建议。1．The author wrote this passage to ________.A．tell the readers how to take proper exercise every dayB．provide some advice on how to form a healthy lifestyle6C．ask people to care about their health rather than their workD．make some surveys among those who have health problems答案 B [推理判断题。阅读全文，特别是根据第一段“Here are some tips for you to form a healthy lifestyle.”可知，作者写这篇文章的目的是向人们提供一些健康生活的建议。]2．Which of the following can lead to getting fat according to the passage?A．Low intake of protein.

When food had not appeared within thirty seconds，Randy began using his spoon on Alex's head as if it were a drum.Alex started to shout loudly in time to the beat (节拍)．Mike chanted “Where's my toast，where's my toast” in the background.Brad realised his newspaper would have to wait for a few seconds.Life became worse after breakfast.Mike wore Randy's underwear on his head.Randy locked himself in the bathroom，while Alex shouted again because he was going to wet his pants.Nobody could find clean socks，although they were before their very eyes.Someone named “Not Me” had spilled a whole glass of orange juice into the basket of clean clothes.Brad knew the talk show had already started.By ten o'clock，things were out of control.Alex was wondering why the fish in the jar refused his bread and butter.Mike was trying to show off his talent by decorating the 8kitchen wall with his colour pencils.Randy，thankfully，appeared to be reading quietly in the family room，but closer examination showed that he was eating apple jam straight from the bottle with his hands.Brad realised that the talk show was over and reading would be impossible.At exactly 11∶17，Brad called the daycare centre (日托所)． “I suddenly have to go into work and my wife's away.Can I bring the boys over in a few minutes？” The answer was obviously “yes” because Brad was smiling.【语篇解读】 文章为记叙文。Brad 想要快活地度过放假的第一天，但他的想法很快被他的三个“好”孩子打破了，无奈之下，他拨通了日托所的电话。1．When his wife left home，Brad expected to ________.A．go out for a walk in the parkB．watch TV talk show with his childrenC．enjoy his first day off workD．read the newspaper to his children答案 C [考查细节理解。根据第一段中的“Expecting a whole day to relax，he was thinking whether to read the newspaper or watch his favourite TV talk show on his first day off in months.”可知，当妻子离开家去看望她母亲时，Brad 期望快活地度过放假的第一天。故 C 项正确。]2．Which of the following did Randy do?A．Drawing on the wall.
