　　2016年陕西汉中市高考英语二轮阅读理解选练（4）（含答案）

　　阅读理解It can be hard to encourage families of preschoolers to turn off the TV，but there are plenty of high­quality shows that promote learning and positive relationships rather than violence，researchers noted.

　　“Although clearly kids watch too much，what’s more worrying is that they watch poor quality shows，” said Dr Christakis，the lead researcher on the new study from the University of Washington in Seattle.His former survey of parents of three­to five­year­old children showed the kids often watched violent cartoons and movies that are “totally inappropriate”．

　　For their study，he and his colleagues randomly divide 565 preschoolers into two groups.In one group，parents recorded notes about kids’ normal TV viewing，without receiving any guidelines to reduce or change those habits.In the other group，researchers made visits and calls and sent monthly newsletters encouraging parents to replace violent TV with educational programming.After six and 12 months，parents reported their kid’s angry，aggressive or anxious behaviors on a questionnaire.At both time points，children in the TV intervention (干预) program had slightly fewer problems than those in the comparison group.Boys in low­income families seemed to benefit most from the change in programming，the researchers found.

　　“The point is，this is something that is as effective as other things we do to try to guide behavior in children，and it’s fairly simple，” Christakis said.

　　Another study published in Pediatrics found the more TV kids and teens watched，the more likely they were to have a crime or other problems in society.Children may imitate violence they see—or more time in front of the TV could simply mean less communication with peers and families，and worse performance in school.

　　The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends kids watch no more than one to two hours of high­quality programming each day.Researchers agreed parents should be mindful of what exactly their young kids are watching on TV as well.“It’s

　　not just about turning the TV off，it’s about changing the channel，” Christakis said.

　　1. It is to be cherished（珍惜）.

　　On March 31, 2016, Ma Yili responded to Wen Zhang’s cheating on Sina Weibo. It reads as follows: Being in love is easy, being married is not. It is to be cherished. Soon many Internet users began to make sentences with this pattern. For example, “Copying is easy, creating is not. It is to be cherished.”

　　2. So the question is……

　　“So the question is…” is taken from the advertising of Lanxiang Vocational School in Shandong Province: “So the question is: Which school offers the best excavator skills? Go to Shandong and find Lanxiang.” Netizens added the phrase “now here comes the question” before the question “which school has the best excavator skills?”, which can also be followed with other questions”.

　　3. Rich and Bitch（任性）

　　The buzzword originates from a real event: A while back, a Mr. Liu spent 1760 yuan online buying a health care product. In the following four months, Mr. Liu remitted (汇款) more than half a million yuan to the swindler. When reporters interviewed him, he said that he had already found himself cheated after spending only 70,000 yuan. “I just wanted to see how much they could take from me!” Sometimes it is translated as, “You can just be stubborn if you’re rich.”. Another way to understand it is “I can do what I want – I’m rich.”

　　4. Meng Meng Da (cute /adorable)

　　Meng Meng Da developed from the sounds of kissing both cheeks. The characters “么么哒” are often used in text messaging to symbolize kisses, much like “XOXO” in English. The kissing sounds were eventually replaced with “meng”, which means “cute” or “adorable.”

　　1. Which is the most popular network buzzword of 2016 according to the passage?

　　A. Rich and Bitch.

　　B. It is to be cherished.

　　C. So the question is……

　　D. Not mentioned in the passage.

　　2. How much was Mr. Liu cheated out of altogether?

　　A. 1760 yuan.

　　B. 540,000 yuan.

　　C. 70,000 yuan.

　　D. A million of yuan.

　　3. Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage?

　　A. Network buzzwords may come from real events.

　　B. “Rich and Bitch” is often used to describe the rich.

　　C. “So the question is…… ” comes from a TV series.

　　D. “It is to be cherished” was first said by Ma Yili.

　　4. Where can we use “It is to be cherished”?

　　A. Love me, love my dog.

　　B. Eating is easy, losing weight is not.

　　C. Where there is a will, there is a way.

　　D. The older, the wiser.

　　2016高考训练--阅读理解阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项

　　My father passed away in a nursing home on a September day. I never remembered him telling me he loved me. Upon hearing his death, I didn’t feel the need to cry. I struggled with my lack of strong feelings over his passing, knowing it was not healthy for me to avoid sadness.

　　On Christmas Day of the year, I was reflecting on as many good memories of my father as I could. I decided to work out my feelings, so I sat down and wrote my father a letter.

　　Dear Daddy,

　　I remember something today. I remember when I was 3 years old, mom carried me right before bedtime and you sang “Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep” to me, and I remember your voice like it was just yesterday. I remember the warmth of you lying next to me and how special I felt at that moment. Then my mom carried me off to my own bed to tuck me in.

　　I remember times when I could sit out on the porch with you and watch an approaching thunderstorm, and you would tell me the scientific facts behind lightning and thunder. I thought you knew everything.

　　I remember you taking my two brothers and me on trips to a stream out in the country on summer days. We would walk along the stream, picking wildflowers to take home to mother.

　　I want to thank you for giving me an appreciation of nature and science and of God’s beautiful creation, Earth. I want to thank you for making us take part in “family worship” every evening after dinner. I remember that Bible stories and the Golden Rule on how to treat others, and I learnt how to appreciate music in my life from the hymns we sang. I also learnt to harmonize with my sisters.

　　And most of all, I want to forgive you. I forgive you for not being able to tell me that I was a special girl and that you loved me. I longed for your spoken affection. But I realize something in your own upbringing would not allow you to express your feelings verbally（口头地）. I realize that you did the best that you could with what you knew.

　　I signed the letter and put it into my wooden box to join many other cards and letters from my family and loved ones that I cherished. But somehow, it had not brought any relief I desired.

　　On New Year’s Eve, I remember the letter to my father. I took it outside to the yard. Then I built a fire and dropped it into the flame and watched it burn.

　　As I thanked my father for giving me life, the tears came. I released all the grief and whispered, “you were my father… and I love you.”

　　1. Why did the writer struggle with the feelings upon hearing her father’s death?

　　A. Because she couldn’t accept her father’s death.

　　B. Because she wanted to hold back her sadness.

　　C. Because she knew she should have felt sad.

　　D. Because she had a mixed feeling of love and hatred.

　　2、The writer spent much happy time doing memorable things with father EXCEPT that ___.

　　A. father sang songs for her before bedtime

　　B. father taught her nature, science, and history

　　C. father took her on trips in nature

　　D. father read Bible stories for her

　　3. It can be inferred from the text that ______.

　　A. the writer burned the letter directly after finishing writing it

　　B. father’s growth influenced his way of expressing himself

　　C. the writer never expected father to express his true feelings

　　D. the writer didn’t forgive her father completely after his death
