　　2016高考训练题。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。It’s hard not to feel cheated and over-charged when you receive unexpected roaming (漫游) charges while traveling abroad—whether they come from making phone calls or checking e-mails.

　　Jeff Gardner received an $ 11,000 bill from Verizon after spending four days in Jamaica. Before the trip, Mr. Gardner, who runs a fly-fishing business in Grayling, Michigan, said he called Verizon to find out what it would cost to use his cellphone for calls and his wireless card to check e-mails while in Jamaica. He said he was told that calls would be about $ 2 a minute and that there would be no extra charges for data as he was on an unlimited plan. The latter part turned out to be wrong.

　　“I don’t mind paying a fair amount for fair service, but $11,000 for four days is ridiculous,” said Mr. Gardner, who used his phone carefully and economically on the trip. He also tried to check and send e-mails using his wireless card, but quickly gave up after the e-mails didn’t go through. Still, his Verizon bill said more than 500,000 kilobytes (千字节) of data was delivered while he was in Jamaica, an amount Mr. Gardner said is 100 times what he normally uses in a month.

　　As travelers increasingly use smart phones abroad in the same way they do at home—to check e-mails, update Facebook and Twitter and pull up online maps—many are facing costly roaming fees, which providers charge when customers use their phones outside their service area. In fact, roaming charges have gotten so out of hand that the Federal Communications Commission has proposed a plan that would require wireless companies to send their customers a voice or text message when they are approaching their plan’s limit, when they have reached that limit and when they are starting to result in roaming fees.

　　1. Why did Jeff Gardner call Verizon before his trip to Jamaica?

　　　A. To hand over his business.

　　B. To check his cellphone bill

　　　C. To find out information about Jamaica.

　　　D. To find out information about roaming charges.

　　2. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 mean?

　　　A. Extra charges were made for Jeff Gardner’s data delivery.

　　　B. Jeff Gardner’s calls were charged over $2 per minute.

　　　C. Jeff Gardner’s plan turned out to be limited.

　　　D. Jeff Gardner had difficulty delivering data abroad.

　　. During the trip, Jeff Gardner______.

　　　A. was careless with phone use

　　B. delivered no more data than at home

　　　C. received quite poor e-mail services

　　　D. frequently used his wireless card to send e-mails

　　. What should wireless companies do according to the Federal Communications Commission?

　　　A. Make customers know when they’re outside their service area.

　　　B. Get customers informed when they’re near the limit of their plan.

　　　C. Stop serving customers when they’ve reached their plan’s limit.

　　　D. Limit some services to reduce the amount of roaming charges abroad.

　　【阅读理解】介绍说明类

　　阅读下列四篇短文，从每小题后所给的A,B,C或D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

　　A blog can be a very effective way of spreading the word about yourself, and your other writing. It can unshroud your knowledge, and create an ongoing relationship with your readers. A good blog is more than just a marketing tool; it’s also an expression of your personality.

　　An obvious starting point is to post samples of your work that not only show off your skills and writing ability but also leave people wanting more. Post selections from the most exciting parts of your stories but end them just as the action reaches its peak. If you write nonfiction (写实文学), show people what they could achieve, and give them a few steps to get them started.

　　Give tips, information and advice about the subjects you cover. For example, something about struggling with difficulty and many other issues like this. Your writing tips can also be included, as well as interesting, strange or funny things you discovered during your research. Whenever you contact an expert, ask if he or she has any interesting stories you could use. You may also give background information about your stories and the locations.

　　Give details of coming posts on your blog, so people can watch out for you, or come and meet you. Personal news will help people feel better connected to you. Include photos of objects and locations in your writing, famous people you meet, the views from your window, and your favorite things—with a note about where they came from and what they mean to you. Look out for things that will help your readers get to know you better, know the subject better, or anything else you think they might find useful, inspiring or entertaining.

　　If you only occasionally post things on your blog, people have a tendency to forget you. As a writer you shouldn’t ever run out of interesting material to fill your blog with—and your readers will love you for it.
