2017届高考英语一轮专项训练：阅读理解（1）及答案

　　【江苏省盐城市2017模拟】A

　　Here’s a movie—a sharp, sugar-rush of fun that’s guaranteed to entertain the entire family. With some terrific computer-generated effects, a great cast and a fun-packed storyline, Robots is the best animated film (动画片) since The Incredibles. Yep, it really is that good. Set in a world populated by robots, Ewan McGregor plays Rodney Copperbottom, a young robot who leaves his small-town home to pursue his dream of becoming an inventor. But after arriving in Robot City, his hopes of getting a job at Bigweld Industries are destroyed when he learns the firm has been taken over by the evil Ratchet (Greg Kinnear). Egged on by his controlling mum, Madame Gasket (Jim Broadbent), Ratchet plans to reduce half of Robot City’s citizens to scrap metal by refusing to sell the spare parts they need to survive. Instead, he wants to make a fortune selling expensive upgrades that few can afford. As he says, “Why be you when you can be new?” 　Aided by a few misfit robots known as the Rustles—including Robin Williams as the cowardly' (胆小的）Fender (“I’m made of a metal called Afraidium”)—Rodney must track down the firm’s founder, Bigweld (Mel Brooks), and convince him to save the city from Ratchet’s plans. The first thing that’ll strike you about the movie is the thought that's gone into creating Robot City. It’s a wondrous world full of mechanical marvels including wind-up cars and walking streetlamps. Also terrific are the special effects. This might be an animated movie but at times you’ll catch yourself thinking it’s really a live-action film. 　Of course, there have been plenty of animated movies that looked the part but were let down by a weak storyline (see Shark Tale, for example). But Robots grips (扣人心弦) right from the start thanks to a heart-warming and thoroughly engaging plot that never bores. My only complaints are with Williams who, as usual，has a one-in-10 success rate with his jokes. Also a letdown is a romantic subplot between Rodney and a shapely robot called Cappy (Halle Berry) that doesn’t go anywhere. Complains aside, this is a mechanical marvel that’ll have you bolted firmly to your seat. BEST QUOTE(引述): Fender: “Even though you had a discouraging day, just remember there’s another one coming tomorrow.” BEST BIT: Check out those amazing images.

　　WORST BIT: Robin Williams, character does an unfunny Britney Spears dance routine. IF YOU LIKED…Ice Age, The Incredibles, Toy Story... YOU’LL LIKE THIS. 56、This piece of writing is a _______.

　　A．commercial advertisement B．film review

　　C．movie poster D．literary essay

　　The cast of Robots is made up of all the following actors or actresses EXCEPT _______.

　　A．Ewan McGregor B．Robin Williams

　　C．Britney Spears D．Halle Berry

　　What is Shark Tale an example of?

　　C5 [2017·广东卷]

　　One day, when I was working as a psychologist in England，an adolescent boy showed up in my office. It was David. He kept walking up and down restlessly, his face pale, and his hands shaking slightly. His head teacher had referred him to me. “This boy has lost his family，” he wrote. “He is understandably very sad and refuses to talk to others, and I'm very worried about him. Can you help？”

　　I looked at David and showed him to a chair. How could I help him? There are problems psychology doesn't have the answer to, and which no words can describe. Sometimes the best thing one can do is to listen openly and sympathetically.

　　The first two times we met, David didn't say a word. He sat there, only looking up to look at the children's drawings on the wall behind me. I suggested we play a game of chess. He nodded. After that he played chess with me every Wednesday afternoon—in complete silence and without looking at me. It's not easy to cheat in chess, but I admit I made sure David won once or twice.

　　Usually, he arrived earlier than agreed, took the chess board and pieces from the shelf and began setting them up before I even got a chance to sit down. It seemed as if he enjoyed my company. But why did he never look at me?

　　“Perhaps he simply needs someone to share his pain with，” I thought. “Perhaps he senses that I respect his suffering.”Some months later, when we were playing chess, he looked up at me suddenly.

　　“It's

　　your turn，” he said.

　　After that day, David started talking. He got friends in school and joined a bicycle club. He wrote to me a few times, about his biking with some friends, and about his plan to get into university. Now he had really started to live his own life.

　　Maybe I gave David something. But I also learned that one—without any words—can reach out to another person. All it takes is a hug, a shoulder to cry on, a friendly touch, and an ear that listens.

　　36．When he first met the author, David ________．

　　A. felt a little excited

　　B. walked energetically

　　C. looked a little nervous

　　D. showed up with his teacher

　　37．As a psychologist, the author

　　________．

　　A. was ready to listen to David

　　B. was skeptical about psychology

　　C. was able to describe David's problem

　　D. was sure of handling David's problem

　　38．David enjoyed being with the author because he________．

　　A．wanted to ask the author for advice

　　B．needed to share sorrow with the author

　　C．liked the children's drawings in the office

　　D．beat the author many times in the chess game

　　39．What can be inferred about David?

　　A．He recovered after months of treatment.

　　B．He liked biking before he lost his family.

　　C．He went into university soon after starting to talk.

　　D．He got friends in school before he met the author.

　　40．What made David change?

　　A．His teacher's help.

　　B．The author's friendship.

　　C．His exchange of letters with the author.

　　D．The author's silent communication with him.

　　【要点综述】 对于一个自闭的孩子，心理医生最好的疗法或许就是默默地和他一块感受他的痛苦……

　　36．C 　细节理解题。由第一段的“…and his hands shaking slightly.”可以看出，第一次见面时David有点紧张。

　　37．A　细节理解题。由第二段的“Sometimes the best thing one can do is to listen openly and sympathetically.”可以看出，他已准备好了聆听。

　　38．B　细节理解题。在第五段中，作者对小男孩愿意来找他的原因进行了猜测：“Perhaps he simply needs someone to share his pain with，” I thought.“Perhaps he senses that I respect his suffering.”由此可知答案。

　　39．A　推理判断题。经过作者的治疗，David已经恢复了正常：started talking, got friends in school and joined a bicycle club，同时给作者写信描述了自己目前的生活以及对将来生活的打算。由此可知答案。

　　40．D　细节理解题。由文章可知，是作者的正确治疗方法，才使David恢复得那么好。他的方法就是：is to listen openly and sympathetically，具体的做法就是默默地和他下棋。

　　Air pollution is a leading cause of cancer and classified among Group 1,or top, human carcinogens (致癌物质), said the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), which is the World Health Organization's (WHO) cancer agency, on Oct 17,2017. The most widely used system for classifying carcinogens comes from the IARC, which places them into five groups. Group 1 carcinogens definitely cause cancer in humans. Group 2A is probably carcinogenic to humans, Group 2B is possibly carcinogenic, the carcinogenicity of Group 3 in humans is unclassifiable, and Group 4 is probably not carcinogenic to humans. Only a little more than 100 are classified as Group 1 cancer-causing substances, including ultraviolet radiation and tobacco smoke. “Our task was to evaluate the air everyone breathes rather than focus on specific air pollutants,” the lARC's Dana Loomis said in a statement. “The results from the reviewed studies point in the same direction: the risk of developing lung cancer is significantly increased in people exposed to air pollution.”

　　In 2010, lung cancer resulting from air pollution killed 223,000 people worldwide, and there was also convincing evidence that it increases the risk of bladder (膀腕) cancer, according to the IARC. Air pollution is already known to raise risks for a wide range of illnesses, including respiratory and heart diseases.

　　Air pollution is global, although the levels of it vary over space and time.

　　Loomis said people in Asia, eastern North America, some places in Central America and Mexico, as well as North Africa have relatively high exposure. Developing countries with large populations and booming manufacturing sectors, such as China, are particularly at risk.

　　Many cities in China, such as Beijing, frequently see smog. This week, Harbin, the capital city of Heilongjiang province, became the first Chinese city to officially suspend classes due to serious smog Many developed countries face similar problems, although to a lesser degree than most developing nations. In Europe, levels of many pollutants have fallen. But between 91 and 96 percent of Europeans living in cities are exposed to levels of PM2.5—tiny particles with a diameter of less than 2.5 micrometers—that are higher than the WHO safety limits, says a report published by the European Environment Agency on Oct 15.

　　Although both the composition and levels of air pollution can vary dramatically from one location to the other, the 1ARC said its conclusions apply to all regions of the world. “Given the scale of the exposure affecting people worldwide, this report should send a strong signal to the international community to take action without further delay,” said Christopher Wild, director of the IARC.

　　59、What might be the best title of the passage?

　　A．Signals of air pollution

　　B．Safety limits of air pollution

　　C．Air pollution, cancer risk

　　D．Air pollution, smog risk

　　What’s the main task of IARC?

　　A．To focus on cancer-causing substances.

　　B．To evaluate the air quality.

　　C．To study the developing risk of cancer.

　　D．To send signals to the international community.

　　Why should the international community take action without further delay?

　　A．The composition and levels of air pollution vary from place to place.

　　B．More and more people in developing countries are exposed to air pollution.

　　C．Developed countries face air pollution, the level of which is higher than the safety limits.

　　D．A large number of people worldwide are exposed to air pollution.

　　C5 [2017·广东卷] ----D

　　While Jennifer was at home taking an online exam for her business law class, a monitor(监控器)a few hundred miles away was watching her every move.

　　Using a web camera equipped in Jennifer's Los Angeles apartment, the monitor in Phoenix tracked how frequently her eyes moved from the computer screen and listened for the secret sounds of a possible helper in the room. Her Internet access was locked—remotely—to prevent Internet searches, and her typing style was analyzed to make sure she was who she said she was: Did she enter her student number at the same speed as she had in the past? Or was she slowing down?

　　In the battle against cheating, this is the cutting_edge and a key to encourage honesty in the booming field of online education. The technology gives trust to the entire system, to the institution and to online education in general. Only with solid measures against cheating, experts say, can Internet universities show that their exams and diplomas are valid—that students haven't just searched the Internet to get the right answers.

　　Although online classes have existed for more than a decade，the concern over cheating has become sharper in the last year with the growth of “open online courses.” Private colleges，public universities and corporations are jumping into the online education field, spending millions of dollars to attract potential students，while also taking steps to help guarantee honesty at a distance.

　　Aside from the web cameras, a number of other high－tech methods are becoming increasingly popular. Among them are programs that check students' identities using personal information，such as the telephone numbers they once used.

　　Other programs can produce unique exams by drawing on a large list of questions and can recognize possible cheaters by analyzing whether difficult test questions are answered at the same speed as easy ones. As in many university classes，term papers are scanned against some large Internet data banks for cheating.

　　41．Why was Jennifer watched in an online exam?

　　A．To correct her typing mistakes.

　　B．To find her secrets in the room.

　　C．To prevent her from slowing down.

　　D．To keep her from dishonest behaviors.

　　42．The underlined expression cutting edge in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to ________．

　　A．advanced technique

　　B．sharpening tool

　　C．effective rule

　　D．dividing line

　　43．For Internet universities, exams and diplomas will be valid if ________．

　　A．they can attract potential students

　　B．they can defeat academic cheating

　　C．they offer students online help

　　D．they offer many online courses

　　44．Some programs can find out possible cheaters by ________．

　　A．checking the question answering speed

　　B．producing a large number of questions

　　C．scanning the Internet test questions

　　D．giving difficult test questions

　　45．Which of the following is the best title of this passage?

　　A．The Advantages of Online Exams

　　B．The High－tech Methods in Online Courses

　　C．The Fight Against Cheating in Online Education

　　D．The War Against the Booming of Online Education

　　【要点综述】 开放网络教学为人们的知识升级打开了便捷之门，如何保证其教育和学习的质量，防止考试时作弊，现在科技手段在发挥着重要的作用……

　　41．D　推理判断题。第二段告诉我们监控的目的：“Her

　　Internet

　　access

　　was

　　locked—remotely—to

　　prevent

　　Internet

　　searches, and

　　her

　　typing

　　style

　　was

　　analyzed

　　to

　　she

　　enter

　　at

　　the

　　same

　　speed

　　as

　　she

　　had

　　in

　　the

　　past？”这些措施都是为了监督其考试中不发生不诚实的行为。该题也可结合常识确定答案。

　　42．A 　词义理解题。从上文的描述及下文的“a

　　key”，“The

　　technology”可以看出，这是一个先进的技术，是确保网络考试真实的关键。

　　43．B 　细节理解题。关键信息：valid。由第三段的“Internet

　　universities

　　show

　　that

　　their

　　exams

　　and

　　diplomas

　　are

　　valid — that

　　students

　　haven't

　　just

　　searched

　　the

　　Internet

　　to

　　get

　　the

　　right

　　answers.”可知答案。破折号后的内容指的就是选项中所说的：defeat academic cheating。

　　44．A　细节理解题。由最后一段的“…by analyzing whether difficult test questions are answered at the same speed as easy ones.”可以看出一些软件是通过设置部分难题，通过对答题速度的检测来判断考试者是否在作弊。

　　45．C　主旨大意题。文章论述的是为了提高开放网络教学的可信度所使用的高科技监考手段，由此可知C项最能概括全文。

　　阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

　　Few of us haven’t read Cinderella, the story of a young woman living in poverty who meets the prince of her dreams. Some might not want to admit it, but there is a hidden Cinderella in everyone’s heart—we all wish we could achieve recognition or success after a period of obscurity (默默无闻).

　　Mary Santiago has that secret dream, too. Her story is featured in Another Cinderella Story, a film set in a US high school.

　　Mary is shy but loves to dance. Compared with other girls, she is invisible. However, her world changes completely when a famous teenager pop singer, Joey Parker, appears.

　　Joey is everything the rest of the boys in her class are not—kind, handsome and desirable. Mary and Joey’s paths cross at a ball. They meet and fall in love with each other. But when Mary has to rush back home, she leaves behind her MP3 player, which becomes the only clue Joey has to find the girl of his dreams. Of course, there is a wicked stepmother, who turns out to be Dominique Blatt and she takes in Mary after her dancer mother dies. Dominique treats Mary like a maid and does everything she can to make sure Mary doesn’t get into the top dance school. Her two daughters are equally determined to stop Joey falling for Mary, even if that means embarrassing her.

　　The story, though it mostly follows Cinderella, does add a few modern day twists to the classic fairy tale. Refreshingly, the film, unlike many high school films, does not focus on looks, although the actors are all beautiful. There is also a lot less materialism in Another Cinderella Story than in many similar movies.

　　“The movie takes the Cinderella fairytale as its jumping off point,” writes movie critic Amber Wilkinson. “Yet the focus is firmly on following your dream.”

　　A. inform us of the importance to marry a prince

　　B. remind us why Cinderella is popular all the years

　　D. tell us how interesting the fairy tale Cinderella is

　　62. In the movie, Mary Santiago is the main character who _________.

　　A. is badly treated by the stepmother

　　B. is brave in expressing her love

　　C. has a dream of meeting a prince

　　D. is embarrassed by the pop singer

　　63. What can we infer from the passage?

　　A. Joey is just like other boys in Mary’s class.

　　B. The MP3 player helps Joey in finding Mary.

　　C. Not many people have a dream to be realized.

　　D. Mary’s mother influences her a lot in singing.

　　64. What does movie critic Amber Wilkinson mean by his words about Another Cinderella Story?

　　A. The movie is exactly another copy of the Cinderella fairytale.

　　B. The movie is as good as the story Cinderella.

　　C. The movie and Cinderella both focus on following your dream.

　　D. The movie is based on the story Cinderella while a little different from it.

　　65. The passage is mainly about _________.

　　A. an introduction to Mary Santiago

　　B. a review about a film

　　C. an essay about dreams

　　D. an advertisement of Cinderella
