5.阅读理解

Families around the country are finding new options for their children's midday meal thanks to a growing number of delivery options catering to students. Kiddos Catering in Chicago adopts a method of providing restaurant meals to schools that contract with it. Owner Michelle Moses and her staff work with area restaurants to create a variety of kid-friendly choices and deliver the meals to the schools five days a week. Parents select the lunches from an online order form that lists the day's featured restaurant and its menu choices.

"Each day is a different restaurant with six to 10 menu options," she said. "It offers so much choice to kids." The service appeals to parents because they think their children are less likely to toss out restaurant food than a packed lunch, Ms. Moses said. The schools appreciate that Moses handles the ordering, payment, pickup, and food distribution in the cafeteria. "Schools really want to be in the business of educating kids," she said. "They don't want to be in the food and beverage(餐饮) business."

That doesn't mean that schools always like it when teens (or parents) take it upon themselves to order food through phone apps. Many schools have banned that practice, citing safety concerns about delivery drivers showing up at school unannounced and the burden of tracking down students to alarm them that their meals have arrived.

"These types of deliveries pose an unnecessary security risk for students and staff," said Bernard Watson, director of community relations for Gwinnett County Public Schools in Suwanee, Ga. "In addition, our award-winning school nutrition program provides students with a wide variety of tasty, nutritious meals on-site, so there is no need to order food from outside."

Jacob Levin, a recent graduate of Bexley High School in Bexley, Ohio, relied on a sub shop to deliver a sandwich to him during lunchtime meetings or other appointments that conflicted with his lunch period. "It was a convenient option. In most cases, I would not have been able to eat at school if it weren't for the delivery option," he said. "Having a restaurant-quality sub also was much more enjoyable than cafeteria food."

(1)What can we learn about Kiddos Catering?

A. It should be ordered online.

B. It is a non-profit food program.

C. It delivers the meals to the schools twice a day.

D. It mainly offers the featured dishes of a restaurant.

(2)What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about?

A. The aim of the food and beverage business.

B. A suitable time for school meals.

C. Advantages of the delivering school lunch.

D. An alternative to the school cafeteria.

(3)What is Bernard Watson's concern for delivering food?

A. It's less healthy than that in the school cafeteria.

B. It causes a potential danger to students.

C. It attracts students' attention to study.

D. Its arrival is usually not punctual.

(4)What is Jacob Levin's attitude to the change of the school lunch?

A. Neutral.

B. Careless.

C. Supportive.

D. Unfavorable.

【答案】(1)A

(2)C

(3)B

(4)C

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇议论文。孩子们的午餐有了新的选择,这要归功于越来越多迎合学生口味的外卖服务。但是该怎样权衡这一现象的利弊呢?

(1)考查细节理解。根据第一段中的"Parents select the lunches from an online order form that lists the day's featured restaurant and its menu choices"可知,Kiddos Catering提供的午餐需要在网上预订。故选A。

(2)考查段落大意。根据第二段中的“ The service appeals to parents because they think their children are less likely to toss out restaurant food than a packed lunch, Ms. Moses said. The schools appreciate that Moses handles the ordering, payment, pickup, and food distribution in the cafeteria. ”可知本段从父母以及学校两个角度介绍了递送的学校午餐的好处。故选C。(3)考查细节理解。根据第四段中的"These types of deliveries pose an unnecessary security risk for students and staff "可知,Bernard Watson担忧的是,食物的递送可能会给学生带来潜在的危险。故选B。

(4)考查推理判断。根据最后一段中的"It was a convenient option. In most cases, I would not have been able to eat at school if it weren't for the delivery option,"可推断出,Jacob Levin 对此的态度是支持的。故选C。

【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解,推理判断和段落大意三个题型的考查,是一篇社会现象类阅读,要求考生在捕捉细节信息的基础上,进一步根据上下文的逻辑关系,进行分析,推理,概括和归纳,从而选出正确答案。

6.阅读理解

The spine (脊柱) stands at the center of your health, providing your body with structure and support. It also contains a major collection of nerves that deliver electric signals from the rest of the body to your brain. So it's important to take care of it.

Staying in a good position is one of the most important things to keep your spine healthy. A proper position means standing or sitting while keeping your spins straight, except for its natural bending. Positions play a vital part even when you're asleep. Stomach sleeping is far from a good idea. Many people prefer sleeping on their side, which is in the interests of their spine. Sleeping on your back has lots of benefits yet can cause lower back pain and put some pressure on your spine.

Staying still for too long — even if your position is good — can be hard on your back. Especially if you work at a task most of the day, it's important to get up and stretch (伸展) periodically. Strength exercises with light weights like push-ups can also help by strengthening the muscles. However, don't overdo the exercise, as repeated movements can hurt the muscles around the spine, as trying to lift heavy weights with poor technique.

Vitamins also affect the health of your spine. In particular, vitamin B and omega-3 fatty acids help keep nerves healthy. Another important part is vitamin D, which is required for strong bones. Vitamin D can come from some foods, but it's also absorbed from sunlight, so it may help to do

some exercises outside. At last, many of the actions necessary to keep a spine healthy are similar to those used to protect your health in other ways. So protect your back, and the rest of the body will benefit.

(1)Which sleeping position is best for our spine according to the passage?

A. B. C. D.

(2)What is suggested in paragraph 3?

A. Strengthening muscles around the spine.

B. Repeating a certain movement more.

C. Doing a proper amount of exercise.

D. Staying still in a good position.

(3)What can we infer about vitamins?

A. Vitamin B reacts with omega-3 fatty acids.

B. Abundant vitamin D guarantees strong bones.

C. Vitamin D can't be absorbed without sunlight.

D. Doing push-ups outside increases vitamin D intake.

(4)What is the best title for the text?

A. Stay still, stay healthy

B. Good position, good spine

C. Healthy means, healthy spine

D. Proper exercise, proper weight

【答案】(1)A

(2)C

(3)D

(4)C

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文,脊柱位于健康的中心,为你的身体提供结构和支撑。它还包含一个主要的神经集合,将身体其他部位的电信号传递到你的大脑。所以照顾好它很重要。作者介绍了一些有助于脊椎健康的方法。

(1)考查细节理解。根据第二段中的“Many people prefer sleeping on their side, which is in the interests of their spine.”许多人喜欢侧睡,这对他们的脊椎有好处。可知选A。

(2)考查细节理解。根据第三段中的“Especially if you work at a task most of the day, it's important to get up and stretch periodically. Strength exercises with light weights like push-ups can also help by strengthening the muscles.”特别是如果你一天中大部分时间都在做一项工作,那么定期起来活动活动就很重要了。像俯卧撑这样的轻重量力量练习也可以帮助加强

肌肉。可知第三段建议要定期做适量运动有益于脊椎。故选C。

(3)考查推理判断。根据最后一段中的”Vitamin D can come from some foods, but it's also absorbed from sunlight, so it may help to do some exercises outside.“维生素D可以从一些食物中获得,但它也可以从阳光中吸收,所以在户外做一些运动也有助于维他命D的吸收。可知在室外做俯卧撑可以增加维生素D的摄入量。故选D。

(4)考查主旨大意。根据第一段中的”The spine stands at the center of your health, providing your body with structure and support. It also contains a major collection of nerves that deliver electric signals from the rest of the body to your brain. So it's important to take care of it.“脊柱位于健康的中心,为你的身体提供结构和支撑。它还包含一个主要的神经集合,将身体其他部位的电信号传递到你的大脑。所以照顾好它很重要。以及文章主要内容为介绍了一些有助于脊椎健康的方法,故选C。

7.阅读理解

We talk continuously about how to make children more "resilient (有恢复力的)",but whatever we're doing, it's not working. Rates of anxiety disorders and depression are rising rapidly among teenagers. What are we doing wrong?

Nassim Taleb invented the word "antifragile" and used it to describe a small but very important class of systems that gain from shocks, challenges, and disorder. The immune (免疫的) system is one of them: it requires exposure to certain kinds of bacteria and potential allergens (过敏原) in childhood in order to develop to its full ability.

Children's social and emotional abilities are as antifragile as their immune systems. If we overprotect kids and keep them "safe" from unpleasant social situations and negative emotions, we deprive (剥夺) them of the challenges and opportunities for self-building they need to grow strong. Such children are likely to suffer more when exposed later to other unpleasant but ordinary life events, such as teasing and social rejection.

It's not the kids' fault. In the UK, as in the US, parents became much more fearful in the1980s and 1990s as cable TV and later the Internet exposed everyone, more and more, to those rare occurrences of crimes and accidents that now occur less and less. Outdoor play and independent mobility went down; screen time and adult-monitored activities went up.

Yet free play in which kids work out their own rules of engagement, take small risks, and learn to master small dangers turns out to be vital for the development of adult social and even physical competence. Depriving them of free play prevents their social-emotional growth. Norwegian play researchers Ellen Sandseter and Leif Kennair warned: "We may observe an increased anxiety or mental disorders in society if children are forbidden from participating in age adequate risky play."

They wrote those words in 2011. Over the following few years, their prediction came true. Kids born after 1994 are suffering from much higher rates of anxiety disorders and depression than

did the previous generation. Besides, there is also a rise in the rate at which teenage girls are admitted to hospital for deliberately harming themselves.

What can we do to change these trends? How can we raise kids strong enough to handle the ordinary and extraordinary challenges of life? We can't guarantee that giving primary school children more independence today will bring down the rate of teenage suicide tomorrow. The links between childhood overprotection and teenage mental illness are suggestive but not clear-cut. Yet there are good reasons to suspect that by depriving our naturally antifragile kids of the wide range of experiences they need to become strong, we are systematically preventing their growth. We should let go-and let them grow.

(1)Why does the author mention the immune system in Paragraph 2?

A. To stress its importance.

B. To analyze the cause of anxiety.

C. To question the latest discovery.

D. To help understand a new word.

(2)Parents overprotect children because .

A. they are concerned about their children's safety

B. they want to keep children from being teased

C. parent-monitored activities are a must

D. children are not independent enough

(3)According to the author, free play can .

A. promote children's resilience

B. strengthen children's friendship

C. reduce children's risky behavior

D. develop children's leadership skills

(4)Which of the following does the author probably agree with?

A. Stop trying to perfect your child.

B. It takes great courage to raise children.

C. Prepare the child for the road, not the road for the child.

D. While we try to teach our children all about life, our children teach us what life is all about.【答案】(1)D

(2)A

(3)A

(4)C

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇议论文,论述的是"不要过分保护孩子"。作者认为"让孩子为路做准备,而不是为孩子准备路"。

(1)考查推理判断。根据第二段中的”Nassim Taleb invented the word’antifragile‘and used it to describe a small but very important class of systems that gain from shocks, challenges, and disorder. The immune (免疫的) system is one of them: it requires exposure to certain kinds of bacteria and potential allergens (过敏原) in childhood in order to develop to its full ability.“纳西姆·塔勒布发明了"抗脆弱"这个词,并使用它来描述一个很小但非常重要的系统类别,它从冲击、挑战和混乱中获益。免疫系统就是其中之一:它需要在儿童时期接触某些种类的细菌和潜在的过敏原,以充分发展其能力。"可知,作者在第二段中提到免疫系统是为了帮助理解一个新单词antifragile。故选D。

(2)考查推理判断。根据第四段中的”It's not the kids' fault. In the UK, as in the US, parents

became much more fearful in the1980s and 1990s as cable TV and later the Internet exposed everyone, more and more, to those rare occurrences of crimes and accidents that now occur less and less.“这不是孩子们的错。在英国,就像在美国一样,父母们在20世纪80年代和90年代变得更加害怕,因为有线电视和后来的互联网让每个人越来越多地暴露在那些现在越来越少发生的罕见的犯罪和事故面前。可知,父母过分保护孩子,因为他们担心孩子的安全。故选A。

(3)考查推理判断。根据第五段中的”Yet free play in which kids work out their own rules of engagement, take small risks, and learn to master small dangers turns out to be vital for the development of adult social and even physical competence.“然而,让孩子们自己制定参与规则、承担小风险并学会掌握小危险的自由游戏,对成人社交能力乃至身体能力的发展至关重要。"可知,作者认为,自由玩耍可以提高孩子的适应力。故选A。

(4)考查推理判断。根据最后一段中的”Yet there are good reasons to suspect that by depriving our naturally antifragile kids of the wide range of experiences they need to become strong, we are systematically preventing their growth. We should let go-and let them grow.“然而,我们有充分的理由怀疑,通过剥夺我们天生抗脆弱的孩子成长所需的广泛经验,我们正在系统性地阻止他们的成长。我们应该放手,让他们成长。由此可知,作者会同意"让孩子为路做准备,而不是为孩子准备路"的观点。故选C。

【点评】本题考点涉及推理判断题型的考查,是一篇教育类阅读,要求考生根据上下文的逻辑关系,进行分析,推理,从而选出正确答案。

8.阅读理解

Unlike most Chinese high school students, seniors in Canada can choose the courses they would like to take by themselves. However sometimes they cannot take the course they want to take due to different reasons like schedule conflicts.

Take me for example. At the end of last semester(学期), my adviser told me the two classes I had chosen for this semester took place during the same period, which meant that I had to give up one of them. She recommended that I take the course called life management. I had never heard of that kind of course in China so I just followed her advice.

On the first day of school, I found out that life management is an open class and every student is able to take the course. The teacher of the class told us honestly that this is an easy course that can increase our average score. It was really different from what I had expected. So I planned to drop the class. Then came the question: Could I change the class?

In fact, students are able to change classes within the first month of the semester. During that month, there's often a long queue at the office door and a lot of students want to switch courses. After the first week, I looked through courses that were available for me. I had two choices: biology and chemistry. Chemistry is for college students who would like a collection of degrees in one specific area after high school. After having discussions and making choices, I switched my class from life management to grade 11 university-level biology. Although biology is quite difficult for me because of the many difficult words I have to use and understand, I will still try my best.

To be honest, quite a lot of students want to change classes because they want easier courses.

But I think challenging myself is always the best choice. I would rather get a lower mark in a course I can really learn from than get high scores in an easy open class.

(1)According to the text, if one takes "life management", he can .

A. learn much he is interested in

B. plan his life well

C. become quite different from others

D. get high marks

(2)We know from the passage that within the first month of the semester .

A. many students switch courses

【解析】【分析】本文作者以自己的经历为例,讲述加拿大学生对课程的选择,并指出选课可能很难。

(1)推理判断题。根据第三段中On the first day of school, I found out that life management is an open class and every student is able to take the course. The teacher of the class told us honestly that this is an easy course that can increase our average score.(开学的第一天,我发现生活管理是一门公开课,每个学生都能上这门课。老师很诚实地告诉我们,这是一门容易的课程,可以提高我们的平均分。)可知,如果一个人上"life management",他能得到高分数。故选D。

(2)细节理解题。根据第四段In fact, students are able to change classes within the first month of the semester. During that month, there's often a long queue at the office door and a lot of students want to switch courses.(事实上,学生可以在学期的第一个月内换班。在那个月里,办公室门口经常排着长队,很多学生都想转专业。)可知,在学期的第一个月内,许多学生换了课程。故选A。(3)细节理解题。根据最后一段中I think challenging myself is always the best choice.(我认为挑战自我总是最好的选择。)可知,作者最后选择生物是为了挑战自己。故选C。

(4)主旨大意题。根据第一段Unlike most Chinese high school students, seniors in Canada can choose the courses they would like to take by themselves. However sometimes they cannot take the course they want to take due to different reasons like schedule conflicts.(与大多数中

国高中生不同的是,加拿大的高年级学生可以自己选择他们想学的课程。然而,有时由于不同的原因,如日程冲突,他们不能参加他们想要参加的课程。)可知,本文讲述的是学生对课程的选择可能很难。故选B。

In a win for literary fiction amid declining sales, Sally Rooney's novel Normal People has been named Waterstones book of the year in 2018.

Rooney's second novel, which follows two young people falling in love in Ireland, has sold 41, 000 copies in hardback in the UK since it was released in August-five times the hardback sales of her 2017 debut, Conversations With Friends. At 27, Rooney is now the youngest winner of the award, which is given by the UK's biggest bookshop chain, Waterstones.

Normal People received almost universal applause upon its release. Longlisted for the Man Booker prize, the book won novel of the year at the An Post Irish book awards in November of 2018 and has also been shortlisted for the Costa novel of the year, announced in January of 2019. The reader response to Normal People had been astonishing. As well as the universal praise, it has been a huge word- of-mouth (口头的) hit. There're customers returning to buy multiple copies as gifts. Normal People strengthened Sally Rooney's reputation as the voice of her generation and one of the most exciting novelists around today. Its success is a testament to the health of literary fiction and indicates that there is still significant appetite for excellent storytelling.

The award, established in 2012, tends to go to books that are already bestsellers near Christmas. It has previously been won by the late American author John Williams's Stoner, the cookbook Polpo by Russell Norman, and last year's choice, Philip Pullman's La Belle Sauvage. James Daunt, Waterstones' managing director, said Rooney's win was a sign of the healthy state of literary fiction, which has seen sales decrease over the last decade. "We are delighted to name it our book of the year," he said.

(1)What do we know about the current situation of literary fiction?

A. It sells well in Waterstones.

B. It doesn't enjoy popularity.

C. It mainly tells love stories.

D. It is a big winner in 2018.

(2)What can we infer about Normal People?

A. It was Britain's most popular book in 2018.

B. It won different awards in a lot of countries.

C. It received praise soon after it was published.

D. It made its author the voice of young people.

(3)The underlined word "testament" is closest in meaning to "________".

A. examination

B. evidence

C. concern

D. statement

(4)What is the main function of Paragraph 5?

A. To attract readers' attention.

B. To introduce other prize winners

C. To serve as background information.

D. To compare Sally's novel with other books.

【答案】(1)B

(2)C

(3)B

(4)C

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇新闻报道,介绍了文学小说在销量下滑之际的一次胜利,

Sally Rooney的小说《普通人》荣获2018年Waterstones图书奖。

(1)考查推理判断。根据第一段“In a win for literary fiction amid declining sales, Sa lly Rooney's novel Normal People has been named Waterstones book of the year in 2018.”这是文学小说在销量下滑之际的一次胜利,Sally Rooney的小说《普通人》荣获2018年Waterstones 图书奖。由此推断出,文学小说的现状是它不受欢迎,故选B。

(2)考查推理判断。根据第三段中的“Normal People received almost universal applause upon its release.”这部电影上映后,普通人获得了几乎全世界的掌声。由此可知,《普通人》这本书出版后不久就受到了好评,故选C。

(3)考查词义猜测。根据第四段中的“Normal People strengthened Sally Rooney's reputation as the voice of her generation and one of the most exciting novelists around today.”《普通人》巩固了Sally Rooney作为她那一代人的代言人和当今最令人兴奋的小说家之一的声誉。由此推断出,下文“Its success is a testament to the health of literary fiction and indicates that there is still significant appetite for excellent storytelling.”它的成功证明了文学小说的健康发展,并表明人们仍然对优秀的故事情节有着巨大的兴趣。"testament"意思是证明,故选B。

(4)考查推理判断。根据第五段中的“The award, establi shed in 2012, tends to go to books that are already bestsellers near Christmas.”该奖项成立于2012年,通常颁发给圣诞节前已经很畅销的书籍。由此推断出,第五段的主要功能是作为背景资料,故选C。

【点评】本题考点涉及词义猜测和推理判断两题型的考查,是一篇新闻报道,考生需要准确捕捉细节信息,并根据上下文进行逻辑推理,从而选出正确答案。

考研英语(一)阅读技巧总结

考研英语(一)阅读技巧总结 俗话说:“前人栽树,后人乘凉”,我们做任何事不能闭门造车,备考考研英语也是同样的道理,我们要学会寻找技巧方法,吸取前人的经验教训,进而才能更好的准备我们的考研英语考试。 之前我在准备考研英语考试时,咨询过很多学长学姐,再加上我个人的一些体验,总结了如下技巧(主要是针对考研英语一阅读)一、素材来源 好多同学买到真题就立即上手做,但从未了解过,真题是来源于哪些杂志文章啊,以及它会涉及哪些方面的内容啊,我们只有了解了这些才能做到心中有数,做起题来也更有方向感,其实,考研英语阅读和完形填空的真题文章有一半以上的都来源于英国的著名杂志《经济学人》,这个老牌的英文杂志涵盖的方面比较广泛,包括经济、政治、文化、科技、历史等诸多方面的话题。 二、阅读能力提高 阅读能力的测试包括阅读速度,理解程度以及记忆能力等。要想获得满意的考研英语成绩,最根本的方法就是提高词汇量,加强阅读训练,同时熟悉一些阅读技巧和做题方法也是至关重要的,每个人都有自己做题的一套方法,也各有所取,个人比较偏向于快速浏览,选取关键词的方法,做阅读题时,我们尤其要避免以下几点:第一、不忠于原文,主观选择答案。尤其对比较熟悉的题材或有个人习惯看法的问题往往容易以自己的主观看法代替作者的观点。 第二、问题简单化,粗心以及一些不良的阅读习惯。研究生的阅读题比六级要难一些,一般情况下文章的中心思想比较隐含,不会放在每段的第一句,答案不会在文章中直接给出。 第三、做完题缺少检查。对感觉把握不大或较难的试题,尤其是概括归纳题,作者意图题等在做完后要根据全文和问题的答案,看是否有矛盾,是否符合逻辑。 以上就是个人的经验总结,希望对同学们有帮助,最后,再推

(英语)高二英语阅读理解专题训练答案及解析 一、高中英语阅读理解 1.阅读理解 Flying for a long time, you finally arrive at the place where you can relax—your hotel room. Now you throwyour bag on the bed, turn on the TV and watch an international news programme on a satellite channel probably from UK or the USA. The main international broadcasters are BBC World and CNN. With an audience of over 1.5 billion people, these are popular channels that offer good-quality news programmes. In both companies, the journalists are experienced writers that produce journalism of a high standard. However, there are alternative news channels which people watch because they want a less traditional or non-Western view on world events. Russia Today and Al Jazeera International, an Arabic company, are international channels that broadcast in English. Both companies say they give a fresh view on big stories, and their experienced journalists often report from places where Western journalists do not work, and so they give us stories that we don't normally see. The Internet offers more variety. OneWorldTV is an Internet site where you can find stories about the developing world and human rights, rather than the usual stories about US politics and business. The writers for this company are often local people who write the stories for free. This non-professional journalism is increasing, and it certainly offers more choices. This increase in citizen journalism means that you can write the news, too. Main news broadcasters often use photographs and stories that members of the general public send to them, especially when there is a dramatic breaking news story. Besides this, some blogs are popular sources of news, and the website NowPublic lets you write stories using information you can get from anywhere, including sites like Youtube, Flickr and Twitter. (1)The first paragraph is meant to . A. offer a suggestion B. give a warning C. explain a reason D. introduce the topic (2)It can be learned from the text that more and more people will . A. prefer to read local news B. pay more attention to world news C. start a career in citizen journalism D. give up watching TV news programmes (3)What would be the best title for the text? A. The Latest Local News B. More Choices for News C. The End of TV News D. Traditional World News 【答案】(1)D (2)C (3)B 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了市民可以观看的新闻媒体。有些新闻来自国家(正式新闻);有些新闻来自民间,这种民间的非正式媒体新闻正呈上升趋势;市民还可以在网上发布一些新闻。 (1)考查推理判断。根据第一段中的“ watch an international news program on a satellite channel probably from UK or the USA.”和第二段中的“The main international broadcasters are BBC World and CNN”可以推断出第一段是引子,是为了引出下文的话题(介绍BBC World和

Mrs Monaf not only conquered me with her vast knowledge of geography, but also won me over with her smile and warm eyes. It was in her class that I traveled to the highest mountains and to the deepest seas from the comfort of the classroom. I learned about the vast oceans, the erupting volcanoes, the snow-capped mountains and the green valleys. She would often relate her adventures about traveling to different parts of the world. Never can I forget the glory of her face when she talks about how truly beautiful this world is. If I search back my love for the environment and geography, I find her to be the source of my love for preserving nature. If one day I became an environmentalist, I know that I'll thank her for it.

高二英语阅读理解30篇

高中英语阅读理解30篇 1、To be a good teacher, you need some of the gifts of a good actor; you must be able to hold the attention and interest of your audience; you must be a clear speaker, with a good, strong, pleasing voice which is fully under your control; and you must be able to act what you are teaching, in order to make its meaning clear. Watch a good teacher, and you will see that he does not sit still before his class:he stands the whole time he is teaching; he walks about, using his arms, hands and fingers to help him in his explanations, and his face to express feelings. Listen to him, and you will hear the loudness, the quality (音色) and the musical note of his voice always changing according to what he is talking about. The fact that a good teacher has some of the gifts of a good actor doesn’t mean that he will indeed be able to act well on the stage, for there are very important differences between the teacher’s work and the actor’s. The actor has to speak words which he has learnt by heart; he has to repeat exactly the same words each time he plays a certain part, even his movements and the ways in which he uses his voice are usually fixed beforehand (预先). What he has to do is to make all these carefully learnt words and actions seem natural on the stage. A good teacher works in quite a different way. His audience takes an active part in his play:they ask and answer questions, they obey orders, and if they don’t understand something, they say so. The teacher therefore has to meet the needs of his audience, which is his class. He cannot learn his part by heart, but must invent it as he goes along. I have known many teachers who were fine actors in class but were unable to take part in a stage-play because they could not keep strictly to what another had written. 1. What is the text about ? A. How to become a good teacher. B. What a good teacher should do outside the classroom. C. What teachers and actors could learn from each other. D. The similarities(相似处) and differences between a teacher’s work and an actor’s. 2. The word “audience” in the fourth paragraph means ____ . A. students B. people who watch a play C. people who not on the stage D. people who listen to something 3. A good teacher ____ . A. knows how to hold the interest of his students B. must have a good voice C. knows how to act on the stage D. stands or sits still while teaching 4. In what way is a teacher’s work different from an actor’s ? A. The teacher must learn everything by heart . B. He knows how to control his voice better than an actor . C. He has to deal with unexpected situations . D. He has to use more facial expressions . 5. The main difference between students in class and a theatre audience is that ____. A. students can move around in the classroom

章最后对现象或问题进行总结说明并进一步强调作者支持的那种解决办法。 五、问题--解决方案型 在这类文章中,作者首先提出一个问题,然后针对这一问题给出解决方案。如果有多个解决方案,作者认可的才是主题。 除了文章结构外,对于报刊杂志体文章时文的一般特点也应有所了解,因为这种文章在考研阅读中占有极大比重。报刊杂志体文章的主要特点有: 1.引人入胜。通常以一个有趣或吸引人的故事或背景开始。 2.抛砖引玉。讲故事或交代背景的目的在于引出主题。所以,时文的主题常出现于首段的最后一句话或第二段的首句。 3.假装客观。作者开始不说出自己的观点,貌似客观地陈述各派观点,最后才表达自己的观点。在确定作者态度的时候,主要根据所举的例子进行判断。如果例子表现一种正面态度,说明作者对这一事物持正评价;反之持负评价。 总之,对于一篇完整的英文说明文或者议论文来说,不论其形式看上去有多么复杂多样,但是套用一句老话:"万变不离其宗"即文章都遵循了特定的篇章结构模式,在这些模式中采用频率最高的是"现象-解释型"型模式。这种模式的特点即提出问题(提出说明的事物或者现象)、分析问题(对事物或者现象进行说明)、解决问题(对说明的事物或者现象进行总结)。可见,如果我们熟悉了文章的篇章结构模式特点,对读懂文章和把握主题帮助极大,一般来说,我们阅读文章的目的是为了获取信息。文章体裁不同,其结构特点就会各异。因此,我们获取信息的最有效方法之一就是去学习和了解文章的结构,以便更加准确、快速地定位我们要找的信息。此外,英语的阅读能力不是一蹴而就的,需要我们日积月累的积累学习,我们每天要计划好阅读量,习题量,并且要持之以恒的坚持,如果同学们,手头没有合适的资料的话,可以看一下何凯文的2017《考研英语阅读同源外刊时文精析》,这本书与考研阅读真题是同源文章,相信对我们应对实

高二英语阅读理解

What a newspaper includes is decided by its editors. The managing editor decides which stories are newsworthy and gives reporters their tasks. To an editor, there are two kinds of news: hard news, such as the election (选举) of a president, and soft news. Soft news includes stories about a new dance craze, a beautiful historic building, or an interesting person. The soft news fills whatever space is left after the hard news is put into the newspaper space. There is also public service news to fit in-information about meetings and lectures, free health programs, or changes in a local library’s hours. The managing editor decides how important a story is. If a story is very important, it is marked for a headline on the front page. Less important stories appear farther back in the paper. The story editor takes a story and decides to “boil or trim it”. If the editor decides to boil a story, it becomes front-page article. Depending on the size of a paper, there may be a sports editor, a business editor or an art editor. On a small weekly paper, an editor may cover two or more of these areas. Once all the stories are written, they are given to a copy editor, who corrects any mistakes and fits the articles into the newspaper’s format(版式). The makeup editor, with the managing editor, usually dec ides how the paper will look. The editor’s job is to decide whether a page will look. This editor’s job is to deicide whether a page will carry two stories and four ads or six stories and one ad. Editors may rewrite or redesign many of the pages as more stories come from the pressroom. 61.

Little Creek Oyster Farm & Market It's little spots like this that tell the current Greenport story.

阅读理解专题 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。 A For a 400-year-old art form, opera had a bad fame: overweight actresses singing the words which were hard to understand in one of those romance languages you were supposed to learn in high school.And with tickets costing as much as $145 a performance, opera goers also had a certain appearance in people's mind: rich, well-dressed and old.

A.Opera is famous for its long history. B.Opera is only performed for rich people. C.Opera companies are trying to keep opera alive.

When you select your career, there's a whole lot more to it than assessing your skills and matching them with a particular position.If you ignore your personality, it will hurt you long-term regardless of your skills or the job's pay.There are several areas of your personality that you need to consider to help you find a good job.Here are a few of those main areas; 1)Do you prefer working alone or with other people?
