【2015高考復(fù)習(xí)】閱讀理解
Walk down the drinks section at the supermarket.Look in the drink cooler in your local convenience store.A new drink is taking up more and more space on the shelves,and that drink is water.Bottled water sales in the US rose to 1.7 billion gallons in 2010 for plastic bottles alone,compared to total sales of only 700 million gallons in 1990.Whereas bottled water was once associated only with the rich and the privileged (特權(quán)階層),it is now regularly drunk by people at all income levels despite the fact that the price of bottled water can be between 240 and 10,000 times higher per gallon than tap water.What accounts for this surprising increase in demand?
Traditionally,people have drunk bottled water for health reasons.The practice of “taking the waters” originated with the Romans,who believed that a person developed a healthy mind by building a healthy body.Across Europe,drinking or bathing in mineral water has been associated with the power to cure various diseases.Health spas at Evian in France and Pellegrino in Italy began bottling water so that their consumers could continue their treatments at home.The consumers in the 21st century are also concerned about health.However,in America,where the habit of drinking bottled water is relatively new,the concern is often more related to the purity or sterilization (消毒) of the water than to its mineral contents.Americans are often worried about the effects of the chemical pollution and other contaminants on the water supply.Many Americans view bottled water as a safe alternative to tap water.
Further reasons for drinking bottled water are its usefulness as an aid to digestion,as a complement to a good meal in a restaurant,and for taste.City tap water is often treated with chlorine (氯) to guard against harmful micro-organisms.Chlorine,as well as metals from pipes and tanks used to distribute and store tap water,can leave behind an unpleasant taste.
【語篇解讀】 本文從兩個方面分析了瓶裝水銷量提高的原因。

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(xiàng)(A、B、C、D)中,選出最佳選項(xiàng)。
Finally, I entered the university. Because of my careful savings, I did not have to work during the school year. Then, summer came and it was time to work harder than ever. I continued working as a waitress at night, instructed tennis camps several mornings a week and worked as a secretary for a few hours in the afternoons. I even decided to take a class at a community (社區(qū)) college. This class at the community college saved me $650. It was an extremely tiring summer and made me anxious to return to my relatively easy life at the university.
During my second and third years of undergraduate schooling, I decided to work about five hours per week in the campus (校園) admissions office answering phones. This provided a little spending money and kept me from drawing my savings out. I wanted to go to Israel to study for 3 weeks, but I hesitated in making this decision because it would cost me $1,600 more to get the credits in Israel. About two weeks later my Mom called to tell me that I had $1,600 in the bank that I had forgotten about! One of my concerns about this trip was not only the cost, but the loss of time to make money; however, I made as much that summer in the ten weeks when I was at home as I had made during the fourteen weeks when I was at home the summer before. The way everything worked together to make this trip possible was one of the most exciting things that have ever happened to me.
This experience has shaped me in many important ways. The first thing that I learned was the importance of a strong work ethic (倫理). Working long hours did a lot to develop my character and helped me learn the value of a dollar. It also made me learn how to search for creative ways to settle difficult situations.
1. Where did the writer probably work part-time before attending the university?
A. In a restaurant. B. In the tennis camps.
C. In a company. D. In the admissions office.
2. The writer took a class at a community college mainly because _________.
A. she wanted to save money B. life there was relatively easy
C. summer time was tiring D. it was required by the university
3. The writer’s major concern about the trip to Israel was that _________.
A. her mother would not agree B. she would fail to get credits in Israel
C. a well-paid summer job would be lost D. $1,600 couldn’t be drawn out in time
4. The passage is mainly about how the writer _________.
A. made money on the college campus B. managed to make full use of her vacation
C. was forced to support herself by her mother D. was shaped by working part-time through college
(1) A. 細(xì)節(jié)推斷題。由第一段第三行“I continued working as a waitress at night”可知。
(2) A. 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第一段倒數(shù)第二句“This class at the community college saved me
$650”可知。
(3) C. 事實(shí)細(xì)節(jié)題。由第二段第七行“One of my concerns about this trip……the time to
make money;”可知。
(4)D. 主旨大意題。由最后一段首句可知。

高考英語沖刺閱讀理解專項(xiàng)-----A
Laura Edmonds has a look of horror on her face as she turns to look out the airplane window.
It’ s not the threat of terrorism that worries her,but rather the possibility of mechanical failure. She says she imagines the plane plunging to the ground because the engines may fall off. So every few minutes she glances out the window to make sure they' re still attached.
It is a fear that has gripped her for 18 years, since her wedding day. Since then she has tried drugs and cocktails to make it through flights. But, she says they’ ve been no help in easing her anxiety.
She has dragged her family on the train from Connecticut to Florida, insisted on long drives and tried to avoid flying at all costs. Even when friends fly, Edmonds says she worries, counting the hours till they arrive at their destination.
It’ s been three years since Edmonds has stepped on a plane.
Yet here she is now, 20,000 feet above the ground onboard a turbo-prop that's a route from New York, LaGuardia Airport to Baltimore-Washington International Airport in Maryland. She is hoping this is the flight that will overcome her fear.
“I feel the seat. I feel the seat against my arm. I feel my hands,” recites Edmonds, her eyes still closed.
She is attempting to change her mind, one of several so-called “ strengthening exercises" she recently learned from a video course designed to overcome fear of flying. The idea is to focus on the moment, rather than the abstract. Former Pan Am and United pilot Tom Bunn is president of the company that produced the videos and that instructs passengers in the basic mechanics of flying and teaches them to control their thoughts.
Before boarding the U. S. Airways flight, Edmonds presents a letter from Bunn to the flight attendant asking to speak with the captain. The pilot gladly obliges, telling her he ’ s been flying for more than two decades and assuring her,You’ re going to be fine. We' re going to take good care of you.’
When the flight attendant offers drinks, Edmonds places her cup of water on the tray table and studies it, tangible evidence that the plane is barely shaking.
“ Ladies and gentlemen, we are approaching Baltimore,” announces the flight attendant.
Edmond is relying heavily on Bunn ’ s coping strategies during the 90-minute flight. But she' s coping.
As the wheels touch down, Edmonds’ face lights up.
1. Laura Edmonds has a fear of flying because______.
A. she once experienced a mechanical failure
B. a mechanical failure often appears in her mind
C. she is good at imagining a terrible situation
D. air crashes often happen in her hometown
答案解析:答案為B。本題為細(xì)節(jié)題。由第二段 “It’ s not the threat of terrorism that worries her,but rather the possibility of mechanical failure. She says she imagines the plane plunging to the ground because the engines may fall off.” 可知,Laura Edmonds害怕乘飛機(jī)是因?yàn)樗偸菗?dān)心機(jī)器出故障,故答案為B。
2. The underlined word "grip" in the third paragraph means______.
A. seized firmly B. hurt seriously
C. cheated simply D. treated carefully
答案解析:答案為A。本題為詞義猜測題。由第三段 “It is a fear that has gripped her for 18 years, since her wedding day. Since then she has tried drugs and cocktails to make it through flights. But, she says they’ ve been no help in easing her anxiety.” 可知,自從她結(jié)婚后,坐飛機(jī)的時候就喝藥和雞尾酒,但是這些對于緩解她的焦慮感沒有作用,可以推斷,18年以來,恐懼總是纏繞著她,因此“grip”的意思是“seized firmly”意為“緊緊抓住”。故答案為A。
3. From this passage it can be inferred that______.
A. every seat in planes is equipped with video
B. passengers on board always feel nervous
C. nervous passengers can get comfort from airlines
D. travel by train is safer than travel by plane
答案解析:答案為C。本題為推理題。第八、九段寫到美國飛行員Tom Bunn生產(chǎn)了幫助乘客克服飛行恐懼的光碟,教乘客如何控制恐懼思想,第十段中 “The pilot gladly obliges, telling her he ’ s been flying for more than two decades and assuring her,You’ re going to be fine. We' re going to take good care of you.’” 乘務(wù)員溫馨的話語體現(xiàn)了他們對心理緊張的乘客的安慰,故C選項(xiàng)符合題意。
A、B選項(xiàng)未提。由第四段 “She has dragged her family on the train from Connecticut to Florida, insisted on long drives and tried to avoid flying at all costs.”可知,Laura Edmonds拽著家人乘坐火車,而不乘坐飛機(jī)是因?yàn)樗齼?nèi)心害怕坐飛機(jī), 無法推斷出火車比飛機(jī)更安全的結(jié)論,故D選項(xiàng)錯誤。
4. Laurn' s overcoming the fear of flying is mostly owed to______.
A. airline' s comfort B. her counting the hours on board
C. a letter from Bunn D. her defeating herself
答案解析:答案為D。本題為推理題。由最后兩段可知,Laurn在90分鐘的飛行中依靠Tom Bunn生產(chǎn)的光碟,模仿光碟中教乘客克服恐懼的策略,文中用了 “But she' s coping.”,作者認(rèn)為她只是在模仿,真正克服飛行恐懼的是她依靠自己的意志力打敗了自己,故答案為D。
