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。
When I was a child, I often dreamed of the time when I could leave home and escape to the city. We live on a farmland, in the winter especially, we were quite cut off from the outside world. As soon as I left school, I packed my bags and moved to the capital. However, I soon discovered that my life has its problems too.
One big disadvantage is money. It costs so much to go out, not to mention basics like food and housing. Another disadvantage is pollution. I suffer from asthma(哮喘), and at times the air is so bad that I am afraid to go outside. Then there is the problem of traveling round. Although I have a car, I seldom use it because of the traffic jams. One choice is to go by bicycle, but that can be quite dangerous.
Of course there are advantages. First, there is so much to do in the city, whatever your tastes in culture or entertainment(娱乐). Besides, there are wonderful jobs and greater chances of moving to a more important job or position. Finally, if you like shopping, the variety of goods is very surprising—and, what is more, shops are often only a short walk away.
Is life better then, in the city? Perhaps it is, when you are in your teens or twenties. However, as you get older, and especially if you have small children, the peace of the countryside may seem preferable. I certainly hope to move back there soon.
1. Which of the following is TRUE about the writer?
A. He is very old now
B. He lives in the city now
C. He prefers driving a car
D. He is in good health
2. In the passage, the writer tries to _____ .
A. express his opinions about way of life
B. describe his life in the countryside
C. show an interest in the outside would
D. persuade the readers to live in the city
3. Is life better in the city than in the countryside?
A. Yes, it is.
B. No, it isn’t.
C. It is when you are young but not so when you are old.
D. The text doesn’t tell us.

For ten years Jo Eddings felt that she had been banging her head against a brick wall. “I can’t describe my frustration. I felt so helpless,” she says. “What I wanted was the help with my very bright daughter who had a problem with language.” She was slow to learn to talk and at 9 her reading and writing were still poor.
“We took her to psychologists and all sorts of experts, but for years nobody seemed to be able to give us a proper diagnosis or know what to do.” But that changed this month when she heard a radio program about an exhibition called Genes Talking at the Institute of Contemporary Arts (ICA) in London. It was about a research project to discover a gene lined with a condition known as specific language impairment. “As soon as I heard it I knew that this was what I’d been looking for,” she says. “I wasn’t alone; I wasn’t mad. There was someone who understood my daughter.”
SLI covers speech and grammar problems suffered by children, the most familiar of which is dyslexia (诵读困难). About 8 percent of children are recognized as dyslexic. But a similar number may be suffering from other forms of SLI and are not recognized. The condition is the failure of different parts of the brain to deal with speech and language, and different failures manifest (表明) themselves in different ways.
The scientist involved in the ICA project was Professor Heather van der Leiy, the director of the Centre for Developmental Language Disorders and Cognitive Neuroscience at University College London, and a leading expert on SLI. “If we can find a genetic link, it will provide the kind of hard evidence that this is a genuine problem, which is needed if we are to cure the disease,” she says.
1. The underlined part in the first paragraph probably means Jo Eddings couldn’t _____.
A. understand her daughter and was very sad
B. help her daughter out of trouble and felt helpless
C. afford to treat her daughter’s disease and felt sad
D. find where to treat her daughter’s disease and felt ashamed
答案解析:答案为B。本题为句意推测题。从划线部分后文 “I can’t describe my frustration. I felt so helpless,” she says. “What I wanted was the help with my very bright daughter who had a problem with language.”可知,Jo Eddings 对于女儿的疾病感到沮丧、无助,他非常需要帮助。故答案为B。
由第二段首句 “We took her to psychologists and all sorts of experts…”可推测,他们带着女儿看了许多心理医生和各种专家,应该有能力支付治疗费用,故C选项错误。A选项和D选项的 “felt ashamed” 与文意不符。
2. Jo Eddings was pleased when she _______.
A. visited and exhibition called Genes Talking
B. heard a radio program about an exhibition
C. discovered a gene linked with her daughter’s problem
D. was given a proper diagnosis of her daughter’s illness.
答案解析:答案为B。本题为细节题。由第二段 “But that changed this month when she heard a radio program…” 可知,答案为B。
3. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage ?
A. Jo Eddings’ daughter was lonely and mad.
B. Dyslexia is an unknown problem among the public.
C. “SLI” stands for Specific Language Impairment.
D. Jo Eddings’ daughter’s illness was cured at last.
答案解析:答案为C。本题为推理题。由第二段 “It was about a research project to discover a gene lined with a condition known as specific language impairment.” 和第三段首句 “SLI covers speech and grammar problems suffered by children, the most familiar of which is dyslexia.”可以推断,C选项正确。
由第二段倒数第二句话 ““I wasn’t alone; I wasn’t mad.” 可知,选项A错误。由第三段 “About 8 percent of children are recognized as dyslexic.” 可知,B选项错误。D选项未提及。
4. On which column can we read the above passage in a newspaper?
A. Education News.
B. Health News.
C. Business News.
D. Economy News.
答案解析:答案为B。本题为推理题。结合全文和最后一段研究SLI的专家描述 “If we can find a genetic link, it will provide the kind of hard evidence that this is a genuine problem, which is needed if we are to cure the disease,” 可推断,Jo Eddings的女儿的疾病属于基因问题,和健康有关,故答案为B。
阅读理解-----A
When I was younger, bedtime was always my favourite part of the day. Wearing soft pajamas and with Ian, my stuffed monkey, in my arms, I felt no pressure at all.
I named Ian after my uncle when I compared Ian’s long arms and legs to his. One night I ran up to Uncle Ian at a family party and told him I had named my monkey after him. His eyebrows wrinkled in confusion, then a chuckle(哈哈笑)escaped his lips. I guess he didn’t understand how important it was to me.
Even if Uncle Ian didn’t think my monkey was special, I certainly did. I dressed him in a white baby nightgown. My mother thought that Ian was the best-dressed stuffed animal in the world. Yes, he was certainly a fashionable creature. The strong cologne(科隆香水)I used on him years ago makes him still smell “pretty”.
For a long time, Ian went everywhere with me. He was my best friend, and I told him everything. But when I turned twelve, I realized I was too old for stuffed animals. I thought people would think I was babyish, so I put him in the cupboard with the rest of my teddy bears and dolls. I begged him to understand why I was doing this, but at the same time I longed to talk to him again.
It took me several years to realize that it was OK to miss Ian. I know now that maturity(成熟)doesn’t only mean growing up and taking on more responsibility. It also means holding on to your childhood and acting young sometimes.
Ian has been with me since I was six years old holding him in my arms connects me to my past and my present as I continue to grow and understand myself.
1. Which of the following is NOT true according to the text?
A.Bedtime used to be the writer’s favourite part of the day because of the stuffed monkey.
BUncle Ian liked the stuffed monkey as much as the writer.
C. The writer used to carry the monkey with her wherever she went.
D. Years later the writer realized that it was not wrong to miss Monkey Ian.
答案解析:答案为B。本题为细节推理题。由第一段 “…bedtime was always my favourite part of the day. ..my stuffed monkey, in my arms, I felt no pressure at all.”可知,A选项正确。由第四段首句 “For a long time, Ian went everywhere with me.” 可知,C选项正确。由倒数第二段首句 “It took me several years to realize that it was OK to miss Ian.” 可知,D选项正确。
结合第二段和该段的 “His eyebrows wrinkled in confusion, then a chuckle escaped his lips. I guess he didn’t understand how important it was to me.” 可知,Uncle Ian 对于我用他的名字为我的玩具猴命名感到迷惑,但是他并不知道玩具猴对我有多重要,因此可推断,Uncle Ian并不是和作者一样喜欢玩具猴。B选项不符合文意,故选择B。
2. The writer loved Monkey Ian deeply because __________.
A. he could understand her
B. he was a fashionable monkey
C. he could talk with her
D. he was her most honest listener
答案解析:答案为D。本题为细节推理题。由第四段 “He was my best friend, and I told him everything.” 可以推断,玩具猴是作者最忠实的听众。故答案为D。
3. We can learn from the text that the writer believes ________.
A. keeping stuffed animals is babyish
B. maturity doesn’t mean growing up and taking on more responsibility
C. one should keep to his childhood and act young sometimes even when he has grown up
D. human beings should be kind to animals
答案解析:答案为C。本题为推理题。由倒数第二段可知,作者几年后才意识到想念玩具Ian 是没有错的。他懂得了成熟不仅仅意味着长大和承担责任,成熟也意味着怀念童年并有时候表现得稚气也无妨。故可推断,C选项符合文意。A选项与文意相反;B选项没有了 “only” ,意思就与原文相反;D选项未提及。
4. We can infer from the text that _________.
A. the writer is still a teenager
B. the writer is now a middle-aged woman
C. Monkey Ian got angry for being left alone
D.Uncle Ian has a monkey-like face“When I was younger…” 和最后一段 “…and my present as I continue to grow and understand myself.” 可以推断,作者继续在成长并开始懂得自己,现在应该是个青少年。故答案为A。
