  2017高考英语阅读理解解析版汇编(33)

  (2017高考训练)阅读理解。

  Everyone looks forward to progress, whether in one's personal life or in the general society.Progress indicates a person's ability to change the way he is living at the moment.Progress must lead to a better life and a better way of doing things.All these, however, remain true only in so far as people want to accept technology and move forward by finding new and more efficient ways of doing things.

  However, at the back of the minds of many people, especially those who miss the “good old days”, efficiency comes with a price.When communication becomes more efficient, people are able to contact one another no matter where they are and at whatever time they wish to.The click of a button allows people miles apart to talk or see each other without even leaving their homes.With the communication gadgets,_such as mobile phones and iPads, people often do not take the effort to visit one another personally.A personal visit carries with it the additional feature of having to be in the person's presence for as long as the visit lasts.We cannot unnecessarily excuse ourselves or turn the other person off.

  With efficiency also comes mass production.Such is the nature of factories and the success of industrialization today.Factories have improved efficiency.Unskillful tasks are left to machines and products are better made and produced with greater accuracy than any human hand could ever have done.However, with the improvements in efficiency also comes the loss of the personal touch when making these products.For example, many handicrafts (手工艺品) are now produced in a factory.

  Although this means that supply is better able to increase demand, now that the supply is quick and efficient, the demand might fall because mass production lowers the quality of the handicraft and it is difficult to find unique designs on each item.

  Nevertheless, we must not commit the mistake of analyzing progress only from one point of view.In fact, progress has allowed tradition to keep up.It is only with progress and the invention of new technology that many old products can be brought back to their old state.New technology is required for old products to stay old.

  It is people's attitude towards progress that causes the type of influence that technology has on society.Technology is flexible.There is no fixed way of making use of it.Everything depends on people's attitude.The worst effects of progress will fall on those who are unable to rethink their attitudes and views of society.When we accept progress and adapt it to suit our needs, a new“past” is created.

  1.The underlined word “gadgets” in Para. 2 is closest in meaning to“________”.

  A.toolsB.messages

  C.barriers

  D.skills

  2.Compared with home­made handicrafts, machine­made products________.

  A.lack great accuracy

  B.lack the personal touch

  C.are of high value

  D.are quite welcome

  3.What can be learned about technology from Paragraph 4?

  A.It can destroy old traditions.

  B.It can lead to social progress.

  C.It can be used to correct mistakes.

  D.It can be used to preserve old products.

  4.What can be concluded from the last paragraph?

  A.Progress can suit the needs of daily life.

  B.People review the past with great regret.

  C.Technology should be introduced in a fixed way.

  D.People's attitude decides the use of technology.

  1.解析:选A 词义猜测题根据第二段“such as mobile phones and iPads”可知gadgets为“工具”解析:选B 细节理解题根据第三段“Howeverwith the improvements in efficiency also comes the loss of the personal touch when making these products.”可知选B解析:选D 推理判断题根据第五段“It is only with progress and the invention of new technology that many old products can be brought back to their old state.”可知选D解析:选D 段落大意题最后一段第一句“It is people's attitude towards progress that causes the type of influence that technology has on society.”是本段的主题句阅读理解

  For my grandmother’s 70th birthday,my family and I visited South Korea.While there,I was attentive to Korean high schools and students.

  I was surprised by how different Korea’s public high schools are from America’s.Korean high schools can be all­girls,all­boys or co­ed (男女同校的) unlike our standard co­ed high schools.There are three grades:“go 1(10th)”,“go 2(11th)” and “go 3(12th)”.“Go” is the first syllable of the word “go­deung­hakkyo”,which,simply translated,is “high school”.

  In America,unless you want to go to a private school,you don’t have to take an entrance exam.In Korea,however,students must take a test to get in because of the many choices of schools.

  Another difference I couldn’t help but notice was the students’ appearance.With very few exceptions,all wear uniforms.A name tag (标牌) with the student’s name,grade and homeroom number must also be worn.Girl’s skirts can’t be above the upper part of the knee,and it is forbidden to dye(染) your hair or wear accessories (装饰品) except small earrings.There are strict regulations for appearance to achieve neatness,and it seems the only freedom students have is with their choices of hair style,socks and shoes.

  The final difference was the setup of the classes.There may be 40 students in a classroom,but the number can be less or even more,depending on the population of the town or city.Although there are many students per classroom,they are very close,which I think is a result of not changing classrooms for different subjects.There are no levels in the subjects and the teachers are the ones who switch classrooms.They just have ten­minute breaks between subjects.In each class,students are ranked by their grades.This causes strict competition,and Korean students do a lot of studying.To help them,all schools have extra study classes after school.One other fact that helped me appreciate living in America is that Koreans have school on Saturdays.Although it’s only a half day,I think I speak for most Americans when I say we could never imagine ourselves in school on a Saturday.

  Korea’s public high schools are clearly different from America’s.I had imagined them to be just like our schools,but now I have a clear picture of how different they are.

  【语篇解读】 本文主要介绍了在作者眼中韩国高中和美国高中的不同之处。

  1.How many main differences are mentioned between Korea’s public high school and America’s?

  A.3. B.4.

  C.5. D.6.

  解析 细节理解题。本文主要说明了美国和韩国高中的不同点,作者采用的总分总的文章结构,第二、三、四、五这四段分别说明他们的不同之处,总共有4处。

  答案 B

  2.It seems that the writer________.

  A.is familiar with the education system of high schools in Korea

  B.is fond of Korean students’ appearance

  C.prefers the high school life of America to the one of Korea

  D.feels it common to have lessons on weekends

  解析 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中倒数第二句中“One other fact that helped me appreciate living in America...”可知,作者喜欢在美国中学的生活,因为韩国高中星期六还要去学校,而美国不用。

  答案 C

  3.What does the underlined word “setup” in paragraph 5 probably mean?

  A.Arrangement. B.Size.

  C.Number. D.Outline.

  解析 词义猜测题。第一句话为本段的中心句。根据其后的内容可知,本段主要介绍了韩、美两国高中在班级人数、作息等方面组织(方式)、安排的不同之处,因此选A。

  答案 A

  4.According to the rules,the students of Korea can________.

  A.go to different high schools without exams

  B.wear any clothes except uniforms at school

  C.attend different classes as they like

  D.have different hair styles

  解析 细节理解题。根据第四段的最后一句话“...it seems the only freedom students have is with their choices of hair style,socks and shoes.”可知,韩国学生唯一的自由就是可以选择发型、袜子、鞋子,故答案选D,即他们可以有不同的发型。

  答案 D

  (2016·安徽重点中学联考)Can dogs and cats live in perfect harmony in the same home? People who are thinking about adopting a dog as a friend for their cats are worried that they will fight. A recent research has found a new recipe for success. According to the study, if the cat is adopted before the dog, and if they are introduced when still young (less than 6 months for cats, a year for dogs), it is highly probable that the two pets will get along swimmingly. Two­thirds of the homes interviewed reported a positive relationship between their cat and dog.

  However, it wasn't all sweetness and light. There was a reported coldness between the cat and dog in 25% of the homes, while aggression and fighting were observed in 10% of the homes. One reason for this is probably that some of their body signals are just opposite. For example, when a cat turns its head away it signals aggression, while a dog doing the same signals submission.

  In homes with cats and dogs living peacefully, researchers observed a surprising behavior. They are learning how to talk each other's language. It is a surprise that cats can learn how to talk

  “Dog”, and dogs can learn how to talk

  “Cat”.

  What's interesting is that both cats and dogs have appeared to develop their intelligence. They can learn how to read each other's body signals, suggesting that the two may have more in common than was previously suspected. Once familiar with each other's presence and body language, cats and dogs can play together, greet each other nose to nose, and enjoy sleeping together on the sofa. They can easily share the same water bowl and in some cases groom (梳理) each other.

  The significance of this research on cats and dogs may go beyond pets — to people who don't get along, including neighbors, colleagues at work, and even world superpowers. If cats and dogs can learn to get along, surely people have a good chance.

  1.The underlined word “swimmingly” in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to “________”.

  A.early B.sweetly

  C.quickly

  D.smoothly

  2.What is found surprising about cats and dogs?

  A.They eat and sleep together.

  B.They observe each other's behaviors.

  C.They learn to speak each other's language.

  D.They know something from each other's voices.

  3.It is suggested in Paragraph 4 that cats and dogs ________.

  A.have common interests

  B.are less different than thought

  C.have a common body language

  D.are less intelligent than expected

  4.What can we human beings learn from cats and dogs?

  A.We should learn to live in harmony.

  B.We should know more about animals.

  C.We should live in peace with animals.

  D.We should learn more body languages.

  1.解析:选D 词义猜测题首段第一二句就暗示人们普遍认为狗和猫是不能和谐相处的而后面的研究与前面内容形成对比:如果采取适当的措施猫与狗之间是可以和平相处的因而“swimmingly”应该是“顺利地;轻易地”之意A、C两项有悖常识;B项意为“甜蜜地;亲切地”程度过深不合常理;D项smoothly意为“平稳地;顺利地”切合题意2.解析:选C 细节理解题从第三段“researchers observed a surprising behavior. They are learning how to talk each other's language”得知这个令人吃惊的发现便是猫与狗竟然能够互相学习对方的语言3.解析:选B 细节理解题根据第四段可知事实上猫与狗之间存在更多的共同点它们并没有我们想象中的那么格格不入4.解析:选A 推理判断题细读最后一段内容我们可以发现作者提出了反问:既然动物都可以学着和谐共存更何况是技高一筹的人类?因而通过猫与狗的研究可以得出我们人类应该学会和谐相处

  【2015高考复习】阅读理解With more and more cars on the road,traffic jams are inevitable.Traffic jams can lead to increased accidents as there are more cars,with more people trying to get to their destination,all the while getting worse.Although it's impossible to avoid traffic jams altogether,there are some tips you can follow to reduce the amount of time on the road.

  Check for traffic jams before you leave.You can listen to the radio for traffic news,or check on the Internet to get up­to­minute information on traffic.If the route you want to take is heavy with traffic,you can choose another.

  Look for a different route permanently.Most traffic jams occur on busy roads.Using country roads could see you avoiding a lot of traffic.Although the distance you may have to travel is further,it can work out quicker.

  Set your car radio to receive traffic bulletins.Many new car stereo systems(汽车音响系统)are equipped with a radio system by which you can hear the traffic channel.This way you can get the latest traffic information and change your journey if necessary.

  ________.Most traffic jams usually occur during rush hour,so try to avoid this time period if possible.Some jobs offer flexible working hours so that you can travel to work outside of rush hour.Some jobs even allow you to work from home so as to avoid commuting altogether.Ask your manager to see what you can do if traffic is a problem for you.

  Use public transport alternatives where available.The easiest way to avoid traffic jams is to take buses or the underground instead of driving your own car.Not only will you avoid traffic jams but you will most likely be saving money as the cost of motoring rises.
