【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。
It was one of the hottest days of the dry season. We had not seen rain in almost a month. The crops were dying. Cows had stopped giving milk. The streams were long gone back into the earth. If we didn't see some rain soon we would lose everything.
I was in the kitchen making lunch for my husband and his brothers when I saw my six-year old son, Billy, walking toward the woods. He was obviously walking with a great effort... trying to be as still as possible. Minutes after he disappeared into the woods, he came running out again, toward the house.
Moments later, however, he was once again walking in that slow purposeful long step toward the woods. This activity went on for over an hour: walking cautiously to the woods, then running back to the house. Finally, my curiosity got the best of me. I crept out of the house and followed him on his journey.
He was cupping both hands in front of him as he walked; being very careful not to spill the water he held in them. Branches and thorns slapped his little face but he did not try to avoid them. He had a much greater purpose. As I leaned in to spy on him, I saw the most amazing site.
Several large deer appeared threatening in front of him. But Billy walked right up to them. I almost screamed for him to get away. And I saw a baby deer lying on the ground, obviously suffering from heavy loss of water and heat exhaustion, lift its head with great effort to lap up the water cupped in my beautiful boy's hand.
I stood on the edge of the woods watching the most beautiful heart I have ever known working so hard to save a life. As the tears that rolled down my face began to hit the ground, they were suddenly joined by other drops... and more drops... and more. I looked up at the sky. It was as if God, Himself, was weeping with pride.

閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的A.B.C和D項中,選出最佳選項。
Without most people realizing it, there has been a revolution in office work over the last ten years. Before that time, large computers were only used by large, rich companies that could afford the investment. With the advancement of technology, small computers have come onto the market, which are capable of doing the work that used to be done by much larger and expensive computers, so now most smaller companies can use them.
The main development in small computers has been in the field of word processors (處理器) , or WPS as they are often called. 40% of British offices are now estimated to have a word processor and this percentage is growing fast.
There are many advantages in using a word processor for both secretary and manager. The secretary is freed from a lot of daily work, such as re-typing letters and storing papers. He or she can use this time to do other more interesting work for the boss. From a manager’s point of view, secretarial time is being made better use of and money can be saved by doing daily jobs automatically outside office hours.
But is it all good? If a lot of daily secretarial work can be done automatically, surely this will mean that fewer secretaries will be needed. Another worry is the increasing medical problems related to work with visual display units (顯示器). The case of a slow loss of sight among people using word processors seems to have risen greatly. It is also feared that if a woman works at a VDU for long hours, the unborn child in her body might be killed. Safety screens to put over a VDU have been invented but few companies in England bother to buy them.
Whatever the arguments for and against word processor are, they are a key feature (特征) of this revolution in office practice.
1. Ten years ago, smaller companies did not use large computers because_________.
A. these companies had not enough money to buy such expensive computers
B. these computers could not do the work that small computers can do today
C. these computers did not come onto the market
D. these companies did not need to use this new technology
2. According to the writer, the main feature of the revolution in office work over the last ten years is __________.
A. the saving of time and money
B. the use of computers in small companies
C. the wide use of word processors
D. the decreasing number of secretaries
3. It is implied but not directly stated in the passage that with the use of word processors _________.
A. some secretaries will lose their jobs
B. daily jobs can be done automatically outside office hours
C. medical problems related to work with a VDU have increased greatly
D. the British companies will make less money
4. Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A. There are both advantages and disadvantages in using a word processor.
B. The British companies care much for the health of the people using word processors.
C. The technology in the field of computers has been greatly advanced over the last ten years.
D. Using word processors, secretaries can get more time to do more interesting work for their bosses.
5. It can be concluded from the passage that ________.
A. safety screens are of poor quality
B. working at a VDU for a long time is good for one’s health
C. more and more British offices will use word processors
D. British companies will need fewer and fewer managers

【2015高考復習】閱讀理解
Farming is moving indoors,where the sun never shines,where rainfall is irrelevant and where the climate is always right.The perfect crop field could be inside a windowless building with controlled light,temperature,wetness,air quality and nutrition.It could be in a New York high-rise or a sprawling complex in the Saudi desert.It may be an answer to the world's food problems.
The world already is having trouble feeding itself.Half the people on Earth live in cities,and nearly half of those- about 3 billion-are hungry or ill-fed.Foodprices,currently increasing,are buffeted by dryness,floods and the cost of energy required to plant,harvestand transport.And prices will only get more unstable.Climate change makes long-term crop planning uncertain.Farmers in many parts of the world already are using water available to the last drop.And the world is getting more crowded:by mid-century,the global population will grow from 6.8 billion to 9 billion.
To feed so many people may require expanding farmland at the expense of forests and wilderness,or finding ways to completely increase crop output.
Gertjan Meeuws has taken the concept of a greenhouse a step further,growing vegetables and house plants in enclosed (封閉的) and regulated environments.In their research station,water flows into the pans when needed,and the temperature is kept constant.Lights go on and off,creating similar day and night,but according to the rhythm of the plant.
A building of 100 square meters and layers (層) of plants could provide a daily diet of 200 grams of fresh fruit and vegetables to the entire population of Den Bosch,about 140,000 people.Their idea isn't to grow foods that require much space,like corn or potatoes.
Here sunlight is not only unnecessary but can be harmful.Plants need only specific wavelengths of light to grow.Their growth rate is three times faster than under greenhouse conditions.They use about 90 percent less water than outdoor agriculture.And city farming means producing food near the consumer,and there's no need to transport it long distances.
【語篇導讀】 本文是一篇說明文。本文主要講述了研究者Gertjan Meeuws和他的幾位同事所研究的一種未來農(nóng)業(yè)模式:不需要陽光和雨水的室內(nèi)農(nóng)業(yè),它不同于溫室農(nóng)業(yè),是一種節(jié)能、節(jié)水和環(huán)保的農(nóng)業(yè)模式,具有適應性強、成本低等特色。
16.What can we mainly learn from Paragraph 2?
A.The climate is worse and worse.
B.The city people live a hard life.
C.The world has difficulty feeding its people.
D.The world's population is increasing fast.
答案 C [細節(jié)理解題。本段主要列舉了世界在滿足人類食品需求方面的問題,如城市人口挨餓問題、物價上漲和不穩(wěn)定問題以及人口增長所帶來的問題等。選項A、B、D只是世界供應糧食這一大問題中的幾個小問題,答案應選C。]
17.Which of the following is true of the environments in the research station?
A.The temperature is often changed.
B.Sunshine is in great need for plants.
C.Day and night depends on plants.
D.Air quality is controlled by plants.
答案 C [細節(jié)理解題。文章第四段中的the temperature is kept constant表明這個溫度不會經(jīng)常變化,故A不對;文章最后一段中的sunlight is not only unnecessary表明這兒是不需要陽光的,故B不對;文章第一段controlled light...air quality and nutrition表明這兒的空氣質(zhì)量是需要控制的,但不一定是依靠植物,故D不對;文章第四段的最后一句可知,這兒的日夜是由植物所“決定”的。故答案選C。]
18.It can be inferred from the text that Gertjan Meeuws's farming________.
A.helps save sea water a lot
B.is highly adaptable
C.resembles greenhouse agriculture
D.suits the production of corn
答案 B [推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章最后兩段,Meeuws的農(nóng)業(yè)模式能夠節(jié)省大量的水(但不是海水),其工作原理并不同于溫室農(nóng)業(yè),不利于生產(chǎn)占據(jù)大面積的作物,如corn和potatoes;根據(jù)文章第一段的It could be in aNew York high-rise or a sprawling complexin the Saudi desert.可知,該種農(nóng)業(yè)可以在許多環(huán)境下存在,適應性是很強的。故答案選B。]
19.What is the text mainly about?
A.Development of indoor farming.
B.Great Revolution in farming.
C.Advantages of indoor farming.
D.Sunless,rainless indoor farming.
答案 D [主旨大意題。本文主要講述了幾位研究者所研究的一種未來農(nóng)業(yè)模式:不需要陽光和雨水的室內(nèi)農(nóng)業(yè),它不同于溫室農(nóng)業(yè),是一種節(jié)能、節(jié)水和環(huán)保的農(nóng)業(yè)方式,適應性強、成本低。故答案選D。]

“Is there anything else you need, honey?” my dad asked me as he put three twenty-dollar bills in my hand. I was traveling back home from a family visit, and after treating me to breakfast and filling my car with gas, it was obvious that my dad wanted to make sure that I would be okay on the road.
“No, Dad. You've done so much already. Thank you!” I was overwhelmed once again by his kind acts of providing everything I needed, despite the fact I just turned 40. Yet I realize that in my father's eyes, I will always be his little girl. He takes deep pleasure in knowing his children are all right. Now that he has enough money, he loves to give whenever he sees a need.
But this was not always the case. Divorced from my mother when I was 11, my dad couldn't be around his kids as often as he would have liked. Money was also tight; even weekend visits were rare. However, my dad stayed in constant communication with us and made sure he was involved in our lives. Though he couldn't always be there in person, I knew he was only a phone call away. I could always count on that.
Even now, almost 30 years later, I treasure knowing that I can pick up the phone and call Dad, and he'll be there for me. I have a wonderful husband, but that hasn't changed how Dad sees me. I'm still his child and he loves to see that my needs are met.
I remember a time when I was shopping in a hardware store(五金店)with Dad. I mentioned my plans to paint one wall in my house. Well, that's all it took for Dad to take action. By the time I got to the checkout(結賬) line, all the supplies I picked out were put out of my hands and placed with things he bought.
Then there was the time when I took him with me to do some grocery shopping for just a few “ items”. By the time we were finished, my shopping cart was full of groceries from every shelf in the store! My sister and I joke that if you don't want Dad to buy it for you, avoid even mentioning you want something.

【2015高考復習】閱讀理解
One of the most debated issues about alcohol consumption has been the consistent finding that those who don't drink tend to die sooner than those who do.The standard Alcoholics Anonymous explanation for this finding is this:many of those who give up alcohol are actually former hard-core drunks who had already brought health problems associated with drinking.
But a new paper suggests that abstaining(戒除)from alcohol does tend to increase one's risk of dying,even when you leave former problem drinkers out.The most shocking part—abstainers'(禁酒者)mortality rates(死亡率)are higher than those of heavy drinkers.
Moderate(適度的)drinking,which is defined as one to three drinks per day,is associated with the lowest mortality rates.Moderate alcohol use is thought to improve heart health,circulation and sociability,which can be important because people who are cut off don't have as many family members and friends who can notice and help treat health problems.
But why would abstaining from alcohol lead to a shorter life?It's true that those who abstain from alcohol tend to be from lower socioeconomic classes,since drinking can be expensive.And people of lower socioeconomic status have more life stressors(壓力因素).
Though heavy drinking is associated with higher risk for many diseases,heavy_drinkers_are_less_likely_to_die_than_don't_drink.One important reason is that alcohol strengthens social interactions,and social interactions are vital for maintaining mental and physical health.Nondrinkers show greater signs of depression.
The authors of the new paper are careful to note that even if drinking is associated with a longer life,it can be dangerous:it can affect your memory severely and it can lead to falls and other troubles that can affect your life.There's also the dependency issue:if you become addicted to alcohol,you may spend a long time trying to get off the bottle.
16.What can we know from the Alcoholics Anonymous explanation and the new paper?
A.The former finds that abstainers can live longer than heavy drinkers.
B.The former finds that nondrinkers can live longer than heavy drinkers.
C.The latter finds that healthy abstainers can live shorter than heavy drinkers.
D.The latter finds that nondrinkers can live shorter than heavy drinkers.
答案 C [細節(jié)推理題。由文章第二段的第一句話“即使不算那些之前喝酒后來戒酒的人,不喝酒也確實會導致死亡率升高”可知,C項正確。]
17.Which of the following is the benefit of moderate drinking?
A.It helps blood circulation.
B.It helps remove people's life stressors.
C.It reduces people's association with friends.
D.It can save a lot of money.
答案 A [細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第三段第二句中的“improve heart health,circulation and sociability”可知,A項正確。]
18.What does the underlined sentence (in Para.5)mean?
A.Heavy drinkers can live longer if they give up drinking.
B.Heavy drinkers can live longer even if they don't give up drinking.
C.The mortality rate of heavy drinkers is lower if they don't give up drinking.
D.The mortality rate of heavy drinkers will be lower if they give up drinking.
答案 C [句意理解題。該句前面說“盡管重度酗酒者犯很多病的幾率很大”,該句接下來的兩句是對畫線句子的解釋,“最重要的原因是飲酒可以加強社交聯(lián)系,這有助于人們的身心健康。因此不喝酒的人更易抑郁?!庇纱丝赏茢啾揪涞囊馑际恰爸囟蕊嬀普卟唤渚茣r死亡率低?!惫蔬xC。]
19.It can be learned from the last paragraph that ________.
A.the authors of the new paper support drinking
B.people should start drinking if wanting to live longer
C.many people doubt whether drinking is good for health or not
D.drinking can do harm to people's life
答案 D [推理判斷題。文章最后一段提到盡管喝酒能夠讓人長壽,但是喝酒也會給人帶來一些危害,“it can be dangerous”是中心詞,因此D項正確。]
