廣西興安縣2017高考英語一輪(暑假)閱讀理解演練
【2016模擬題】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。
According to the US government, wind farms off the Pacific coast could produce 900 gigawatts of electricity every year. Unfortunately, the water there is far too deep for even the tallest windmills to touch bottom. An experiment under way off the coast of Norway, however, could help put them anywhere.
The project, called Hywind, is the world’s first large-scale deepwater wind turbine (渦輪發(fā)電機). Although it uses a fairly standard 152-ton, 2. 3-megawatt turbine, Hywind represents totally new technology. The turbine will be fixed 213 feet above the water on a floating spar, a technology Hywind’s creator, the Norwegian company StatoilHydro, has developed recently. The steel spar, which is filled with stones and goes 328 feet below the sea surface, will be tied to the ocean floor by three cables ; these will keep the spar stable and prevent the turbine from moving up and down in the waves. Hywind’s stability in the cold and rough sea would prove that even the deepest corners of the ocean are suitable for wind power. If all goes according to the plan, the turbine will start producing electricity six miles off the coast of southwestern Norway as early as September.
To produce electricity on a large scale, a commercial wind farm will have to use bigger turbines than Hywind does, but it’s difficult enough to balance such a large turbine so high on a floating spar in the middle of the ocean. To make that turbine heavier, the whole spar’s center of gravity must be moved much closer to the ocean’s surface. To do that, the company plans to design a new kind of wind turbine, one whose gearbox (變速箱) sits at sea level rather than behind the blades.
Hywind is a test run, but the benefits for perfecting floating wind-farm technology could be extremely large. Out at sea, the wind is often stronger and steadier than close to shore, where all existing offshore windmills are planted. Deep-sea farms are invisible from land, which helps overcome the windmill-as-eyesore objection. If the technology catches on, it will open up vast areas of the planet’s surface to one of the best low-carbon power sources available.
1. The Hywind project uses totally new technology to ensure the stability of .
A. the cables which tie the spar to the ocean floor
B. the spar which is floating in deep-sea water
C. the blades driven by strong and steady sea wind
D. the stones filled in the spar below the sea surface
2. To balance a bigger turbine high on a floating spar, a new type of turbine is to be designed
with its gearbox sitting .
A. on the sea floor B. on the spar top C. at sea level D. behind the blades
3. Wide applications of deepwater wind power technology can .
A. solve the technical problems of deepwater windmills
B. make financial profits by producing more turbines
C. settle the arguments about environmental problems
D. explore low-carbon power resources available at sea

2016高考英語閱讀理解集訓(xùn)。
閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的四個選項(A、B、C、D)中,選出最佳選項。
I clearly remember the day when my little brother was born: January 1, 1994. One of my favorite family photos shows me lying with my mother in the hospital bed, happy but un-
aware of the small, sleeping baby in the background.
I stayed with my grandparents for the weekend of my brother’s birth, excited about my new brother but not yet aware of what having a little brother would mean. I didn’t truly realize what was going on until we were in the hospital room at Duke University----
coincidentally (碰巧地), the same room in which I had been born two years earlier.
When I looked at my brother for the first time, I felt a mixture of fear and interest. Little did know that small, pink creature would grow up to be one of my favorite people in the world.
In reality, though I am two years older than my brother, I am more often than not the real baby in the family. I am very lacking when it comes to common sense. Instructions constantly confuse me and I frequently find myself totally puzzled by things like knowing how to start the washing machine or manage the storage settings on my iPhone.
That’s where Gibson comes in. The poor kid has had to guide me through more tasks than I would care to admit, but he never complains. Though I should probably be told to figure it out myself, he always comes through.
I’m envious of his ability to readily answer the ever-present, “What do you want to do with your life?” question at family gatherings. “Be a doctor,” he says----a solid answer, completely opposite to my shaky one, “Well, I’m an English major, so...”
My brother truly is my best friend. No one understands me better, and there isn’t anyone else I would want to be stuck with in our family. I may not have a clear idea of where I’m headed, but he is stuck with me.
1. How did the author feel when he saw his brother for the first time?
A. Angry and sad. B. Excited and moved.
C. Curious and scared. D. Happy and interested.
2. What does the underlined sentence in the fourth paragraph mean?
A. My brother is the real baby in the family.
B. In fact, I seem to be less mature than my little brother.
C. My brother gets more love from the family than I do.
D. I am growing more slowly than my brother.
3. What does the brother often help the author do?
A. Help him deal with many daily tasks.
B. Help him with his studies.
C. Give him advice on how to choose a major.
D. Comfort him when he is in a bad mood.
4. What is the best title for this text?
A. My Strange Family Gatherings
B. The Real Baby in the Family
C. Stuck with Me----My Not-So-Little Little Brother
D. The Feeling of Having a Brother

A survey sponsored by an international temporary service agency found that U.S.executives believe that people with a sense of humour do better at their jobs,compared with those who have little or no sense of humour.In fact,a whopping 96 percent of those surveyed said people with a sense of humour do better.
The survey went on to point out that the results suggest that a sense of humour may help light-hearted employees keep their jobs during tough times.And,what's more,it may propel them up the corporate ladder past their humourless colleagues.
Why?It seems that those with a sense of humour are better communicators and better team players.
Studies have shown that happy workers are more productive.In fact,a researcher at California State University found that humour could help the employees to release tension.
Consequently,they can concentrate on their work more efficiently.What's more,employees who enjoy interacting with their co-workers aren't as likely to be distracted,or absent from work.
Research conducted by psychologist Dr Ashton Trice at Mary Baldwin College in Virginia showed that humour helps us think.When people feel stuck on important projects,they tend to feel angry or depressed.This negative mood can interfere with subsequent performance.According to Dr Trice's research,taking time out to laugh can help us to get rid of negative feelings and allow us to return to a task or move on to another project unaffected by past defeat.
If humour is really this important,then why don't we use it more often on the job?
Most likely,the main reason is that many people are unaware of the positive effects of humour in the workplace.They tend to think humour and laughter are unproductive or unprofessional,perhaps both.However,it is important to realize that some humour is inappropriate for the workplace,and that it is often used at wrong times.
【語篇解讀】 本文是一篇時文報道。管理者們認(rèn)為,和那些沒有幽默感的人相比,具有幽默感的人能把工作做得更好。比如,幽默的人富有合作意識,具有較高的工作效率等。

When you're surfing the Internet on your laptop from your dorm or home,do you know your personal details are being gathered secretly?And would you be surprised to know the information may be sold cheaply to advertisers and marketers?
According to an investigation by The Wall Street Journal,all it takes is a tiny file in a computer-a single code consisting of a long series of numbers and letters-to record the computer user's age,gender,location,favorite movies and hobbies.
The newspaper reports that Lotame Solutions Inc.,a New York company,uses a sophisticated (先進(jìn)的) software.called “beacon”to capture what people are typing on a website.
Lotame packages that data into profiles (個人資料) about individuals,only without their names,and sells the profiles to companies seeking customers.Batches of such data may be sold for a few dollars.
The Wall Street Journal survey discovered that spying on Internet users is one of the fastest-growing businesses on the World Wide Web.
The “cookie”-a tiny text file put on your PC by websites or marketing firms which might be used to remember your preferences for one site,or to track you across many sites is already old news.There are new and more complex tools such as “beacons”which scan in real time what people are doing on a webpage.These beacons instantly assess the Internet user's location,income,shopping interests and even medical conditions.
Millions of Internet users around the world also face unprecedented (空前的) threats.Private,sensitive,personal and business information is being gathered and sold without their knowledge.
Companies insist the information they gather is anonymous and the data is used harmlessly.But the technology has grown so powerful that even some of the biggest websites in the US don't know that they were installing intrusive files on visitors' computers.These include MSN.com and Yahoo.com.
Next time you visit a webpage and find an ad banner advertising something you've been planning to buy,don't be amazed that your computer can read your mind.
【語篇導(dǎo)讀】 經(jīng)常上網(wǎng)的人可能都遇到過這樣的情況:瀏覽網(wǎng)頁(surfing the Internet)時總是跳出一些廣告,內(nèi)容還都是你最近想買的商品。別誤會,你的電腦還沒智能到讀懂你的想法——是你的個人隱私被出賣啦!趕快來看看是怎么一回事吧!

【2015高考復(fù)習(xí)】閱讀理解
A new study of 8,000 young people in the Journal of Health and
Social Behavior shows that although love can make adults live healt-
hily and happily,it is a bad thing for young people.Puppy love (早戀)
may bring stress for young people and can lead to depression(抑郁癥).
The study shows that girls become more depressed than boys,and younger girls are the worst of all.
The possible reason for the connection between love and higher risk of depression for girls is “l(fā)oss of self”.According to the study,even though boys would say “l(fā)ose themselves in a romantic relationship”,this“l(fā)oss of self”is much more likely to lead to depression when it happens to girls.Young girls who have romantic relationships usually like hiding their feelings and opinions.They won't tell that to their parents.
Dr Marianm Kaufman,an expert on young people problems,says 15% to 20% young people will have depression during their growing.Trying romance often causes the depression.She advises kids not to jump into romance too early.During growing up,it is important for young people to build strong friendships and a strong sense of self.She also suggests the parents should stimulate their kids to keep close to their friends,attend more interesting school activities and spend enough time with family.
Parents should watch for signs of depression- eating or mood changes-and if they see signs from their daughters or sons,they need to give help.The good news is that the connection between romance and depression seems to become weak with age.Love will always make us feel young,but only maturity (成熟)gives us a chance to avoid its bad side effects.
