河南魯山縣2017高考英語閱讀理解暑假自練題（2）
2016高考訓(xùn)練題。閱讀理解。
閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個選項（A、B、C和D）中，選出最佳選項。
An estimated 80 percent of American adults think music lessons, though at times boring and challenging in the eyes of some kids, improve children’s ability to learn or their performance in school. They say that the satisfaction for learning to play a new song helps a child express creativity.
Researchers at Harvard University , however, have found that there’s one thing musical training does not do. Samuel Mehr, the leading researcher of the new study, said it is wrong to think that learning to play a musical instrument improves a child’s intellectual development. The evidence comes from studies that measured the mental ability of two groups of 4-year-olds and their parents. One group attended music class; the comparison group went to a class that places importance on the optical arts-arts that can be seen.
“We found no evidence for any advantage on any of these tests for the kids participating in these music classes,” said Mehr.
Samuel Mehr says researchers have carried out many studies in an effort to learn whether musical training can make children smarter. Only one study seems to show a small percentage increase in IQ, intellectual scores among students after one year of music lessons.
He does not believe that IQ is a good measure of a child’s intelligence. Therefore, the researchers in his study compared how well children in the musical training group did on mental processing tasks, then the results were compared to those of children who did not take lessons.
Music lessons may not offer children a fast easy way to gain entry to the best schools later of their life, but the training is still important.
Mr Mehr notes that the works of writer William Shakespeare are not taught , so the children will do better in physics. He says Shakespeare is taught because it is important for cultural reasons.“And I don’t think music needs to be any different than that.”
1. What attitude do most American grown-ups have towards music lessons?
A. Approving B. Uninterested C. Doubtful D. Uncertain
2. The underlined word“optical”in Paragraph 2 probably means .
A. colorful B. visual C. traditional D. serious
3. How did Samuel Mehr draw his conclusion in the new study?
A. By studying previous research results
B. By measuring the IQ of the kids.
C. By referring to some documents
D. By comparing two different groups
4. The study shows that .
A. early music training has negative effects
B. musical lessons should be stopped at school
C. playing musical instrument makes kids more creative
D. musical training doesn’t improve kids’ intelligence
參考答案1—4、ABDD

Learning English well is a great challenge, but with the help from technology（技術(shù)） it can be as easy as a piece of cake.
As well as the classroom, teachers and textbooks, the Internet, TV and radio programs can play an active role in helping learn English. The Internet is full of rich and up-to-date information.

Clothes can make phone calls, play music, dial your pal's number, keep you warm during cold weather and operate your computer?
This is not a fantasy. A British company, called Electrotextiles, has created a wide range of clothes that have minds of their own! Scientists, working for the company, have invented a kind of fabric that can be blended(混合) with flexible electronic materials to create intelligent clothing. The result are electronic garments.
If you think the wearer has to be wired to different devices, think again. These designer clothes are wire free, soft to touch and washable! Like any electronic device, these high tech clothes have to be powered. Currently, a tiny nine volt battery serves the purpose. But the researchers hope that in the near future the clothes will generate electricity by using body heat. “These clothes are 100 percent shock proof，” they say.
The Electrotextiles team has also created the world's first cloth keyboard. This keyboard can be sewn into your trousers or skirt. To use this device, you will have to sit down and tap on your lap! These “l(fā)ap tap” gadgets(小器具) are all set to take over laptop computers!
Another useful garment is the shirt cum mobile phone. This_handy_invention enables drivers to chat comfortably with others at the wheel! Other popular electronic wear include the denim(牛仔布) jacket with flexible earphones sewn into the hood(風(fēng)帽) and the electronic ski jacket with a built in heater. The ski jacket is also programmed to send signals to a satellite. This technology is known as global positioning system and can be used to track lost skiers and wandering kids.
Having completed the cloth keyboard, scientists have already started to work on a new project—a necktie that can be used as a computer mouse. What is the next? Do you have any idea?
1. The electronic garments are similar to other electronic devices in that ________．
A. they feel smooth and soft

Energy independence．? It has a nice ring to it．? Doesn't it？ If you think so， you're not alone，because energy independence has been the dream of American president for decades， and never more so than in the past few years， when the most recent oil price shock has been partly responsible for kicking off the great recession（經(jīng)濟(jì)衰退）．

The Pacific island nation of Nauru used to be a beautiful place.Now it is an ecological disaster area.Nauru's heartbreaking story could have one good consequence—other countries might learn from its mistakes.
For thousands of years，Polynesian people lived in the remote island of Nauru，far from western civilization.The first European to arrive was John Fearn in 1798.He was the British captain of the Hunter, a whaling ship.He called the island Pleasant Island.
However, because it was very remote, Nauru had little communication with Europeans at first.The whaling ships and other traders began to visit，bringing guns and alcohol.These elements destroyed the social balance of the twelve family groups on the island.A ten year civil war started，which reduced the population from 1，400 to 900.
Nauru's real troubles began in 1899 when a British mining company discovered phosphate(磷酸鹽)on the island.In fact，it found that the island of Nauru was nearly all phosphate，which was a very important fertilizer for farming.The company began mining the phosphate.
A phosphate mine was not a hole in the ground；it was a strip mine.When a company strip mined，it removed the top layer of soil.Then it took away the material it wanted.Strip mining totally destroyed the land.Gradually, the lovely island of Nauru started to look like the moon.
In 1968，Nauru became one of the richest countries in the world.Every year the government received millions and millions of dollars for its phosphate.
Unfortunately, the leaders invested the money unwisely and lost millions of dollars.In addition，they used millions more dollars for personal expenses.Soon people realized that they had a terrible problem—their phosphate was running out.Ninety percent of their island was destroyed and they had nothing.By 2000，Nauru was financially ruined.Experts say that it would take approximately$433，600，000 and more than 20 years to repair the island.This will probably never happen.
1．What might be the author's purpose in writing the text?
A．To seek help for Nauru's problems.

A．Rich and powerful.
B．Modern and open.
C．Peaceful and attractive.
D．Greedy and aggressive.

【要點(diǎn)綜述】 文章主要講述了太平洋島國瑙魯如何從一個環(huán)境優(yōu)美的天堂島變成一個生態(tài)失衡、滿目瘡痍的小島。
1．B 寫作意圖題。由文章第一段的“Now it is an ecological disaster area.Nauru's heartbreaking story could have one good consequence—other countries might learn from its mistakes.”可以看出，作者的目的是給當(dāng)前很多只注重發(fā)展經(jīng)濟(jì)而忽略環(huán)境保護(hù)的國家一個警告。故選B項。
2. C 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。從第一段提到的“太平洋上的國家瑙魯島曾經(jīng)是一個美麗的地方”看出，瑙魯島是attractive；由第二段第一句以及第三段第一句可知，上千年來，瑙魯島的人們生活在偏遠(yuǎn)的小島上，過著平靜的生活。故選C項。
3．B 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由最后一段的“Soon people realized that they had a terrible problem—their phosphate was running out.Ninety percent of their island was destroyed and they had nothing.”可以得知“磷酸鹽逐漸減少，開采殆盡”。由此可以看出，“磷酸鹽的過量開采”導(dǎo)致了生態(tài)災(zāi)難。故選B項。
4．A 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由最后一段的“Unfortunately，the leaders invested the money unwisely and lost millions of dollars.In addition，they used millions more dollars for personal expenses.”看出，是領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人不正確使用資金導(dǎo)致了財政問題。故選A項。
5．A 推理判斷題。文章最后告訴我們：Experts say that it would take approximately $433，600，000 and more than 20 years to repair the island.也就是說，瑙魯島上的生態(tài)損失彌補(bǔ)起來需要大量的資金和時間，即選項所說的“修復(fù)起來很難”。故選A項。
