　　2017高考英语阅读理解解析版汇编（34）

　　【2015高考复习】阅读理解Most people watching Jeremy Lin these past two months saw Jeremy Lin，New York Knicks star；but I，watching him，saw someone else.That was my elder brother，Bob，who is athletic and energetic.He could never sit still when he was in second grade；he had to get up every now and then and run around the room.And sure enough，he grew up to be a starting player for an NCAA championship lacrosse (长曲棍球) team.He

　　was

　　a Nike­endorsed marathoner，too，and reached the top of Mt.Everest，unguided，in his 50s.

　　And yet my family never watched his lacrosse games.We did watch some of his marathons，but that wasn’t until he was in his

　　20s.When

　　Bob

　　was

　　in

　　his

　　glory

　　days，our Shanghainese­born parents were bent on getting him into medical school.There was a loving aspect to it：I can remember my father working through math books with him，lesson by lesson，at the big blackboard in the attic.Bob never did become a doctor，though；and neither did I．It wasn’t until my younger sister came along that someone in the family finally wore a white coat.

　　Bob today could be the fittest 58­year­old on the planet.His doctor estimates his biological age at 35；he’s still big mountains in the Himalayas.And，like Jeremy Lin，he’s charming.No one sees Bob without leaving with a laugh.He sometimes jokes he could be mayor of his building，and it’s true.To know him is to cheer for him.

　　And yet my parents did not cheer for him.What if my mother had sat on the sidelines with her statistics，like Jeremy Lin’s mother？What if my father had played videos of athletes for my brother to watch and imitate？It’s hard not to wonder.

　　And how did Jeremy Lin’s parents manage to do these remarkable things？Amy Chua，the tiger mother，recalls her immigrant

　　father

　　beating

　　the

　　kids

　　whenever

　　they mispronounced a Chinese word.How is it that Jeremy Lin’s immigrant father in particular，Gie­Ming Lin，encouraged his son to follow such an untraditional path?

　　【语篇解读】　林书豪的成功，使人们开始反思什么是最合适的教育方式。家长是应该把自己的意愿强加给孩子还是发挥孩子的特长呢？

　　5. Bob’s glory days were those________.

　　A．when he was doing well in math

　　B．when he was in second grade

　　C．when he was made mayor of his building

　　D．when he showed his talents in sports

　　解析　推理判断题。根据文章一、二两段内容可知，鲍勃20多岁时在体育方面的表现很优秀，由此可推知，鲍勃最辉煌的时期应是他在体育运动中展现他的特长时。

　　答案　D

　　6．From the passage we can tell that Bob is________.

　　A．active and optimistic

　　B．clever and determined

　　C．brave and helpful

　　D．considerate and independent

　　解析　细节理解题。根据第三段的第三、四、五句内容可知，鲍勃积极、乐观，故A项当选。

　　答案　A

　　7．Which of the following statements is probably TRUE?

　　A．Bob was always ignored by his parents.

　　B．Bob could also have been a sport star.

　　C．Bob’s parents often watched his games.

　　D．Nobody in the author’s family was a doctor.

　　解析　正误判断题。根据文章第一段内容可知，鲍勃曾经在体育方面的表现非常优秀，多次获奖，若能坚持下去，他也许会成为一名体育明星，故B项正确。

　　答案　B

　　8．From the last two paragraphs we can infer that________.

　　A．parents should always study together with their children

　　B．parents should know how to educate their children properly

　　C．children should be punished when they do anything wrong

　　D．children should try to live up to the hopes of their parents

　　解析　推理判断题。在文章最后两段中，作者用反问句暗示出家长应该给孩子正确的教育，而不是强迫他们做这做那。

　　答案　B

　　【2016模拟题】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。

　　Scientists recently found three animal species living two miles below the surface of the Mediterranean Sea, where the super-salty waters don’t have oxygen(氧). They’re multicellular(多细胞的), which means their bodies have many cells. They each are as small as a large grain of sand. But they are animals.

　　The most exciting thing about these creatures, say the scientists, is that they obviously don’t need oxygen to live. What biologists know about life so far is that only single-celled living things can live in places that have no oxygen, and that multicellular organisms(有机物) can visit these places, but not live there. These newly found creatures could change that idea.

　　Finding animals down there was so surprising that the scientists couldn’t believe it. At first, “we thought they were dead bodies,” Roberto Danovaro, a scientist at the Polytechnic University of Marche in Ancona, Italy, told Science News. To find out whether the animals could actually live there Danovaro and his colleagues brought up more samples(样本) from the ocean floor. Studying the animals in the new samples showed that they appeared to be alive.

　　The researchers did more tests, and found that some of the animals had eggs—which suggests they were reproducing(繁殖). Also in the samples were old skins, suggesting that the animals had lived there long enough to grow. Finally, pictures taken showed that the insides of the animals appear to be adapted to live in an environment that has no oxygen.

　　These clues suggest the animals don’t need oxygen, but the evidence(证据) is indirect, which means that scientists still have not observed how the animals live without oxygen. This means more studies are needed, but the scientists think they’re on the right track. And if they’re right, biologists will need to rethink what they know about where animals live.

　　What excited the scientists most is that______.

　　A.they found three animal species visit the salty water under the Mediterranean Sea

　　B.single-celled animals can live in super-salty waters

　　C.the tiny animals have many cells

　　D.three kinds of animals can live in places that have no oxygen

　　The underlined phrase in Paragraph 2 means the scientists could think _____.

　　A.only single-celled creatures don’t need oxygen to live

　　B.multicellular animals can visit the super-salty waters

　　C.the newly found creatures can’t live in the super-salty waters

　　D.multicellular animals also can live without oxygen besides single-celled ones

　　Which of the following CAN’T be used to prove the newly found creatures can live in super-salty waters?

　　A.Their dead bodies are found there.

　　B.Some in the samples have eggs.

　　C.Some old skins are found in the samples.

　　D.The pictures of their insides have been taken.

　　More studies are needed to prove_____.

　　A.where single-celled animals can live

　　B.how the newly found animals live without oxygen

　　C.whether the multicellular creatures can live underwater

　　D.why the super-salty waters have no oxygen

　　文章介绍了科学家在深海没有氧气的水中发现了三种多细胞的动物，并为他们是否能真正的在如此的环境中生存进行了大量的试验。

　　1.D。细节理解题。根据第一段和第二段可知科学家在深海中发现了三种生物，最让他们兴奋的是这三种多细胞动物竟然是生活在没有氧气的水中。

　　2.D。句意理解题。第二段中说到科学家们认为只有单细胞的动物才可以在没有氧气的水中生存。多细胞动物只能到达这样的环境却不能在这样的环境中生存。所以这样的发现可能改变科学家们原来的观点。

　　3.A。细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的内容可知：在所取得的样本中发现了有的动物有卵；也发现了他们退去的陈旧的皮肤；他们体内的照片也发现他们适应了没有氧气的环境。所有这些都间接地证明了这些

　　动物是不需要氧气的。

　　4.B。细节理解题。根据最后一段的第一句目前的证据都是间接的，要想证明这些动物是如何在没有氧气的情况下生存还需要进一步的试验。

　　阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A.B.C和D项中，选出最佳选项。

　　【2016高考模拟题】阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A.B.C和D项中，选出最佳选项。

　　During her sixty-year career performing, Lena Horne entertained people with her beauty and rich, emotional voice. She used her fame to fight social injustices toward African-Americans.

　　Lena Horne was born in New York in 1917. At sixteen, Lena became a dancer at the famous Club in New York City. After taking voice lessons, she soon became a singer. In 1940, Lena Horne became the first African-American to perform with an all-white jazz band. After performing at a club in Hollywood, California, she caught the attention of filmmakers. She soon began making movies. Her films became very popular. In the 1940’s, Lena Horne was the first African-American in Hollywood to sign a long-term contract with a major movie studio. Her deal with MGM stated that she would never play the role of a servant. She refused to play roles that represented African-Americans disrespectfully(无礼的). But this refusal also limited her movie career.

　　Lena Horne once said that World War Two helped make her a star. She was popular with both black and white soldiers. She sang on army radio programs and traveled to perform for the troops. Once, she noted that German prisoners of war were permitted to sit closer to the stage than black soldiers. She was very angry. These experiences led to Lena Horne’s work in the civil rights movement.

　　Lena Horne sang at civil rights gatherings. She took part in the March on Washington protest in 1963. It was during this event that Martin Luther King Junior gave his “I Have a Dream” speech. She protested racial separation at the hotels where she performed. She took action so that she and her musicians would be allowed to stay in those hotels. Black musicians at the time generally stayed in black neighborhoods.

　　Lena Horne died in New York in 2010.

　　1. How old was Lena Horne when she died?

　　A. 86 years old.

　　B. 93 years old.

　　C. 98 years old.

　　D. 88 years old.

　　2. We can infer that_____.

　　A. black actresses often played roles of servants in the film in the 1940’s

　　B. black women were forbidden to perform in the film in the 1940’s

　　C. Lena Horne liked staying at hotel very much

　　D. Lena Horne didn’t make any films in the 1960’s

　　3. What is the main idea of the fourth paragraph?

　　A. Lena Horne was a friend of Martin Luther King Junior.

　　B. Lena Horne took an active part in political activities.

　　C. Lena Horne was involved in civil rights activities.

　　D. Lena Horne protested racial separation at the hotels.

　　4. Why was Lena Horne angry?

　　A. Because she was ill-treated by the army.

　　B. Because black soldiers were badly treated by the army.

　　C. Because she was refused to perform together with white actors.

　　D. Because white soldiers insulted her.

　　这是一篇记叙文。介绍了美国著名黑人女演员、歌手Lena Horne积极参与反对种族隔离的人权运动的故事。

　　1. B。细节理解题。根据第二段第一句Lena Horne was born in New York in 1917及最后一段最后一句Lena Horne died in 2010.可知Lena Horne是93岁时逝世的。

　　2. A。 推理判断题。根据Her deal with MGM stated that she would never play the role of a servant. She refused to play roles that represented African-Americans disrespectfully可以判断，黑人女演员当时主要演一些仆人

　　之类的小角色。

　　3. C。主旨大意题。根据本段的内容可知本段主要讲Lena Horne积极参与反对种族隔离的人权运动。故C项最佳。B项外延太大，针对性不强；D项是文中的一个细节，不具有概括性。A项信息没有提到。

　　4. B。细节理解题。根据第三段第四句she noted that German prisoners of war were permitted to sit closer to the stage than black soldiers可知她生气的原因是黑人士兵没有得到公平的对待。

　　阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A.B.C和D项中，选出最佳选项。

　　There are various reasons why cancers appear to be on the increase. For one thing, though their sufferers are to be found in all age groups, cancers are particularly likely to attack persons in their middle and advanced years. Naturally, since people live longer these years, there are more cancer sufferers than before. Again, with better methods of diagnosis (诊断), doctors can more easily recognize cancerous growths that would formerly have passed unnoticed or that would have been wrongly diagnosed. It is also believed that certain habits and conditions of modem living, including heavy smoking and the pollution of the air, may leave people living in more cancer-causing conditions than before.

　　We all look forward to the day when a simple medical test can find cancer while it is still small. Researchers around the world are working on such a test. Most of their work deals with the examination of the blood.

　　Researchers in Boston have found something in the blood of cancer patients that does not appear in healthy persons. The test showed which persons had cancer and which did not. It was correct more than 90 percent of the time.

　　The researchers believe the test may be able to show cancer very clearly in its development. Cancers discovered early usually can be treated successfully.

　　The test examines very small bits of fat in the blood called lipids (脂质). Cancers seem to change lipids although doctors do not know why. The test showed differences between the lipids of the persons with cancer and the lipids of those without cancer.

　　The researchers say the new test could be a step to develop a simple way to check patients for cancer before the disease shows on an X-ray.

　　1. Who will fail cancer from the study of the researchers?

　　A. The young.

　　B. The middle age and the older.

　　C. The man.

　　D. The woman.

　　2. The underlined words "such a test" refer to________.

　　A. the test that shows which persons have cancer and which don’t

　　.

　　B. the test that may be able to show cancer very early in its development,.

　　C. a simple medical test that cannot find cancer when it is -small

　　D. a new test that could be a step to develop a difficult way

　　3. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?

　　A. Cancers have much to do with something in patients’ blood.

　　B. People living in better conditions are most likely to be attacked by cancer.

　　C.X-raying is the best way to determined whether a person has cancer or not.

　　D. Cancers have nothing to do with a person’s habits and living conditions.

　　4. What would be the best title for the passage?

　　A. A simple way to cancer

　　B. Cancers can be cured

　　C. How to find cancer

　　D. Early discovery of cancer

　　1. B 细节题。从第一段中的cancers are particularly likely to attack persons in their middle and advanced years可以知道癌症尤其容易在中年人和老年人的身体上发生。

　　2. B 词义题。第二段中的a simple medical test can find cancer while it is still small；test与后面的such a test指的是同样的一种方法，所以这里的test指的是上句的“用最简单的方法诊断早期的癌症”。

　　3. A 细节题。第三段中提到了cancer病人血液中的有些东西在健康人中没有，并且百分之九十以上的情况是这样的。B项与D项的意思与文章第一段中的certain habits and conditions of modern living including heavy smoking and pollution of the air may leave people living in more cancer-causing conditions不符；C项内容与文章最后一段的意思不符。

　　4. D 主旨题。文章在开头就交代了写作的目的，有各种不同的理由说明了为什么癌症似乎在上升，而从后面的几段我们知道科学家们正在研究一种新的早期诊断cancer的方法。
