　　贵州思南县中学2017高考英语阅读理解一轮精编（三）及答案

　　阅读理解—推理判断题。

　　(2015年湖北省黄冈中学等三校联考)

　　I remember the first time that I was about 8 years old when for the first time, there was a computer in the classroom. I remember that my teacher allowed each student to take turns to play various educational games on the computer. One day, I found the source code for one of these games. Without knowing or being taught any programming language, I was able to figure out some of the BASIC code. I just gave myself a limitless number of lives in the game, so I could continue playing it forever. This was also my first introduction to algebra, and I didn't even know it at the time. This was a decisive moment in my life. I was quite excited because of what I was learning and what I was able to do. As a result, I was enthusiastic for the rest of my life about self-learning and computers, and I was quite happy doing them too.

　　I've noticed that people who are truly content with life are enthusiastic about what they do. This enthusiasm, along with good health, is the key to being happy. It also leads to self-confidence and content in life too. It may also lead to success, wealth and achievements.

　　Success, wealth or achievements can also bring some people happiness, yet I know plenty of rich people who are unhappy. I know many people with successful businesses that are not happy with what they are doing. I know people who continuously buy themselves new toys, such as cars, computers, and televisions, yet never seem content for too long. Please remember, happiness is the journey of life, not the destination.

　　What can we know from paragraph 1?

　　The author has a great talent for algebra.

　　Creative thinking is necessary for every child.

　　What is the secret of happiness in the author's opinion?

　　Success and wealth.

　　Gifts and self-confidence.

　　Enthusiasm and good health.

　　Knowledge and achievements.

　　We can infer from the last paragraph that

　　.

　　Rich people generally feel unhappy

　　Wealth can't bring people any happiness

　　One will feel unhappy once he has gained all the things he wants

　　Being enthusiastic about what you are doing is more important than wealth

　　At a certain time in our lives we consider every place as the possible site for a house. I have thus searched the country within a dozen miles of where I live. In imagination I have bought all the farms, one after another, and I knew their prices.

　　The nearest thing that I came to actual owner completed the sale with me, his wife changed her mind and wished to keep it, and he offered me additional dollars to return the farm to him. However, I let him keep the additional dollars and sold him the farm for just what I gave for it.

　　The real attractions of the Hollowell farm to me were its position, being about tow miles from the village, half a mile from the nearest neighbor, bounded on one side by the river, and separated from the highway by a wide field. The poor condition of the house and fences showed that it hadn’t been used for some time. I remembered from my earliest trip up the river that the house used to be hidden behind a forest area, and I was in a hurry to buy it before the owner finished getting out some rocks, cutting down the apple trees, and clearing away some young trees which had grown up in the fields. I wanted to buy it before he made any more of his improvements. But it turned out as I have said.

　　I wasn’t really troubled by the loss. I had always had a garden, but I don’t think I was ready for a large farm. I believe that as long as possible it is better to live free and uncommitted. It makes but little difference whether you own a farm or not.

　　Science can't explain the power of pets, but many studies have shown that the company of pets can help lower blood pressure (血压) and raise chances of recovering from a heart attack, reduce loneliness and spread all-round good cheer.

　　Any owner will tall you how much joy a pet brings. For some, an animal provides more comfort than a husband/wife. A 2002 study by Karen Allen of the State University of New York measured stress (紧张) levels and blood pressure in people - half of them pet owners –while they performed 5 minutes of mental arithmetic (算术) or held a hand in ice water. Subjects completed the tasks alone, with a husband/wife, a close friend or with a pet. People with pets did

　　It best .Those tested with their animal friends had smaller change in blood pressure and returned

　　Most quickly to baseline heart rates .With pets in the room ,people also made fewer math mistakes

　　Than when doing in front of other companions. It seems people feel more released (放松)around

　　Pets, says Allen, who thinks it may be because pets don’t judge.

　　A study reported last fall suggests that having a pet dog not only raises your spirits but may also have an effect on your eating habits. Researchers at Northwesterm Memorial Hospital spent a

　　Year studying 36 fat people and were put on a diet-and-exercise programs; a separate group of

　　56 fat people without pets were put on a diet program. On average，people lost about 11 pounds，

　　Or 5% of their body weight .Their dogs did even better，losing an average of 12 pounds，more then

　　15%of their body weight .Dog owners didn’t lose any more weight than those without dogs but ,say

　　Researchers，got more exercise overall –mostly with their dogs –and found it worth doing.

　　.选A。根据第二个表格右边第二段The House may present difficulties but the Visitors' Centre, its exhibition, and the garden are accessible(可进入的) to wheelchair user.“对于轮椅使用者来说，可能进入房子有些困难，但是游客中心，展览厅还有花园都可以进入。”When you choose to be a victim, the world is a cold and difficult place. “They” did things to you which caused all of your pain and suffering. “They” are wrong and bad, and life is terrible as long as “they” are around. Or you may blame yourself for all your problems, thus internalizing your victimization. The truth is, your life is likely to stay that way as long as you feel a need to blame yourself or others.

　　Those who choose to be creators look at life quite differently. They know there are individuals who might like to control their lives, but they don’t let this get in the way. They know they have their weaknesses, yet they don’t blame themselves when they fail. Whatever happens, they have choice in the matter. They believe their dance with each sacred moment of life is a gift and that storms are a natural part of life which can bring the rain needed for emotional and spiritual growth.

　　Victims and creators live in the same physical world and deal with many of the same physical realities, yet their experience of life is worlds apart. Victims relish in anger, guilt, and other emotions that cause others—and even themselves—to feel like victims, too. Creators consciously choose love, inspiration, and other qualities which inspire not only themselves, but all around them. Both victims and creators always have choice to determine the direction of their lives.

　　In reality, all of us play the victim or the creator at various points in our lives. One person, on losing a job or a special relationship, may feel as if it is the end of the world and sink into terrible suffering for months, years, or even a lifetime. Another with the same experience may choose to first experience the grief, then accept the loss and soon move on to be a powerful creative force in his life.

　　In every moment and every circumstance, you can choose to have fuller, richer life by setting a clear intention to transform the victim within, and by inviting into your life the powerful creator that you are.

　　A. People and things around you.

　　B. Opportunities and problems.

　　A. strong attachment to sufferings in life pulls people into victims

　　B. people need family support to deal with challengers in life
