‎2014届高考英语二轮最新冲刺专题训练:阅读理解28‎ There were smiling children all the way. Charily they knew at what time the train passed their homes and they made it their business to stand along the railway, wave to complete strangers and cheer them up as they rushed towards Penang. Often whole families stood outside their homes and waved and smiled as if those on the trains were their favorite relatives. This is the simple village people of Malaysia. I was moved.‎ ‎ I had always traveled to Malaysia by plane or car, so this was the first time I was on a train. I did not particularly relish the long train journey and had brought along a dozen magazines to read and reread. I looked about the train. There was not one familiar face. I sighed and sat down to read my Economics.‎ ‎ It was not long before the train was across the Causeway and in Malaysia. Johor Bauru was just another city like Singapore, so I was tired of looking at the crowds of people as they hurried past. As we went beyond the city, I watched the straight rows of rubber trees and miles and miles of green. Then the first village came into sight, Immediately I came alive; I decided to wave hack.‎ ‎ From then on my journey became interesting. I threw my magazines into the waste basket and decided to join in Malaysian life. Then everything came alive. The mountains seemed to speak to me. Even the trees were smiling. I stared at everything as if I was looking at it for the first time.‎ ‎ The day passed fast and I even forgot to have my lunch until I felt hungry. I looked at my watch and was surprised that it was 3:00 pm. Soon the train pulled up at Butterworth. I looked at the people all around me. They all looked beautiful. When my uncle arrived with a smile, I threw my arms around him to give him a warm hug (拥抱). I had never done this before. He seemed surprised and then his weather-beaten face warmed up with a huge smile. We walked arm in arm to his car.‎ ‎ I looked forward to the return journey.‎ ‎( ) 1. The author expected the train trip to be ‎ A. adventurous ‎ B. pleasant ‎ C. exciting ‎ D. dull ‎( ) 2.What did the author remember most fondly of her train trip?‎ ‎ A. The friendly country people.‎ B. The mountains along the way.‎ C. The crowds of people in the streets.‎ D. The simple lunch served on the train.‎ ‎( ) 3.Which of the following words can best take the place of the word “relish” in the second paragraph?‎ ‎ A. choose ‎ B. enjoy ‎ C. prepare for ‎ D. carry on ‎( ) 4.Where was the writer going?‎ ‎ A. Johor Bauru.‎ ‎ B. The Causeway.‎ ‎ C. Butterworth.‎ ‎ D. Singapore.‎ ‎( ) 5.What can we learn from the story?‎ ‎ A. Comfort in traveling by train.‎ ‎ B. Pleasure of living in the country.‎ ‎ C. Reading gives people delight.‎ ‎ D. Smiles brighten people up.‎ ‎1.选D。根据第二段,作者是第一次坐长途火车,带了很多杂志看,可以看出作者一开始认为坐火车是dull(乏味的)。‎ ‎2.选A。根据第一段,马来西亚人很热情,总会微笑着在站台上对火车里的陌生人挥手,欢迎乘客来到马来西亚。作者很感动。‎ ‎3.选B。参照第71题。作者开始并不享受火车之旅。‎ ‎4.选C。倒数第二段,Soon the train pulled up at ‎ Butterworth.火车在Butterworth停下来。‎ ‎5.选D。文章主要讲述作者从看到马来西亚人总会在站台上笑对火车里的陌生人挥手后,心情由无聊、乏味变成高兴。可以看出,微笑能让人提起精神。‎ 阅读理解----------------D ‎  Even plant can run a fever, especially when they’re under attack by insects or disease. But unlike human, plants can have their temperature taken from 3, 000 feet away straight up. A decade ago, adopting the infrared (红外线)scanning technology developed for military purposes and other satellites, physicist Stephen Paley came up with a quick way to take the temperature of crops to determine which ones are under stress. The goal was to let farmers precisely target pesticide (杀虫剂)spraying rather than rain poison on a whole field, which invariably includes plants that don’t have pest (害虫)problems.‎ ‎  Even better, Paley’s Remote Scanning Services Company could detect crop problems before they became visible to the eye. Mounted on a plane flown at 3, 000 feet at night, an infrared scanner measured the heat emitted by crops. The data were transformed into a color-coded map showing where plants were running“fevers”. Farmers could then spot-spray, using 50 to 70 percent less pesticide than they otherwise would.‎ ‎  The bad news is that Paley’s company closed down in 1984, after only three years. Farmers resisted the new technology and long - term backers were hard to find. But with the renewed concern about pesticides on produce, and refinements in infrared scanning, Paley hopes to get back into operation. Agriculture experts have no doubt the technology works. “This technique can be used on 75 percent of agricultural land in the United States, ” says George Oerther of Texas A & M. Ray Jackson , who recently retired from the Department of Agriculture, thinks remote infrared crop scanning could be adopted by the end of the decade. But only ff Paley finds the ‎ financial backing which he failed to obtain 10 years ago.‎ ‎16.Plants will emit an increased amount of heat when they are______________.‎ A. sprayed with pesticides   ‎ B. facing an infrared scanner C. in poor physical condition   ‎ D. exposed to excessive sun rays ‎17.In order to apply pesticide spraying precisely, we can use infrared scanning to____________.‎ A. estimate the damage to the crops   ‎ B. measure the size of the affected area C. draw a color-coded map   ‎ D. locate the problem area ‎18.Farmers can save a considerable amount of pesticide by______________.‎ A. resorting to spot-spraying   ‎ B. consulting infrared scanning experts C. transforming poisoned rain   ‎ D. detecting crop problems at an early stage ‎19.The application of infrared scanning technology to agriculture met with some difficulties ‎ ‎_______________.‎ A. the lack of official support   ‎ B. its high cost C. the lack of financial support  ‎ D. its failure to help increase production ‎20.Infrared scanning technology may be brought back into operation because of_____________.‎ ‎  A. the desire of farmers to improve the quality of their produce ‎  B. growing concern about the excessive use of pesticides on crops ‎  C. the forceful promotion by the Department of Agriculture ‎  D. full support from agricultural experts ‎ ‎ [全解全析] 41—45 CDACB ‎ 本篇是一篇说明文,主要介绍了将原用于军事和卫星的红外线扫描技术运用于农业的前景,人们为此所做出的努力及遇到的困难。‎ ‎16.C。细节理解题。依据文章第二自然段第2行“...an infrared scanner measured the heat emitted by crops.The data were transformed into a color-coded map showing where plants were running‘fevers’”,说明植物在发“高烧”,也就是说,“身体状况”不佳时才会散发热,所以选项C符合题意。‎ ‎17.D。推理判断题。本题要求判断使用红外线扫描技术的目的。依据文章第二自然段第4行“...showing where plants were running ‘fevers’.Farmers could then spot spray,...”说明目的是确定有问题的区域,以使农民有针对性地喷杀虫剂。显然,选项D(确定有问题的地域)为最佳选项。‎ ‎18.A。细节理解题。依据文章第二自然段最后一句“Farmers could then spot-spray, using 50 to 70 percent less pesticide than they otherwise would”(采取点喷,农民们可以节省平时用量的50%至70%的杀虫剂),选项A符合题意。‎ ‎19.C。推理判断题。依据文章第三自然段的第1句“The bad news is that Palely’s company closed down in 1984, after only three years.Farmers resisted the new technology and long-term backers were hard to find”,从中可以看出红外线扫描技术应用于农业遇到了一些问题,原因有两个:一是农民对新技术的抵制,二是难以找到长期赞助商。文章中还有一处明显的提示出现在最后一句:“But only if Palely finds the financial backing which he failed to obtain 10 years ago”.从该句提供的信息同样可以反推出10年前的情形,所以选项C正确。‎ ‎20.B。细节理解题。依据文章第三自然段第2行“But with the renewed concern about pesticide on produce, and refinements in infrared scanning,Palely hopes to get back into operation”,可知B项(出于对杀虫剂过度使用的担心)符合题意。‎ 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A.B.C和D项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ A A couple of years ago, before a trip to China, Nicole Davis and her US women’s volleyball teammates were warned about the prominence (显著、突出) of coach “Jenny” Lang Ping in her native country.‎ ‎“I was pushed over by Chinese journalists while I was just trying to put my luggage on the bus,” said Davis.‎ Known as the “Iron Hammer” for her punishing spikes(扣球),Lang made it possible for China to dominate in the sport in the early 1980s. She was a key player on China’s 1984 Olympic gold medal winning team.‎ When the US team arrived for the Olympics, Lang, 48, who is from Beijing, had to take a different route to avoid a crowd of reporters and fans.‎ Then came the greatest moment to Lang:While the US team was playing in a packed gym, at least 8,000 Chinese fans unfurled an American flag.‎ ‎“That really says it all,” Davis said. “They look at her as an icon(偶像).I’m sure it’s hard for them to see her coaching another country, but they love her so 高考资源网ly that her success is their success.”‎ The loyalty of the Chinese fans was tested on Friday, when China lost a match to the US.‎ ‎“It’s a pity that China lost the match, but I’m still glad that Lang Ping’s team won, since she is the pride of China’s volleyball,” said Liu Chengli, a spectator. “We also cheered for ‎ Lang’s victory.”‎ Lang said she just tried to stay professional when the two teams meet. “It doesn’t matter if we play China or any other team. It’s the same.” Lang said.‎ Davis‎ said she and her teammates could not have imagined the passion for volleyball among Chinese because the sport was lack of popularity in the US. The reception from Chinese fans has touched the US players, said US volleyball player Lindsey Berg.‎ ‎“It’s such an honor to be here and play for our coach here in China,” she said. “The amount of support that the Chinese give to her and us has been tremendous. The whole event has been unbelievable.”‎ ‎1.What’s the passage mainly about?‎ A.Staying professional. B.Cheering for the Iron Hammer.‎ C.A match between China and the US. D.Lang Ping’s career as a coach.‎ ‎2.Lang Ping avoided meeting the reporters and fans probably because she ________.‎ A.was afraid to be questioned about her strategy B.didn’t want to be paid much attention to C.disliked to be with her fans D.didn’t want to disturb public order ‎3.What does the underlined word “unfurled” exactly mean?‎ A.destroyed completely B.tore into pieces C.spread out to the wind D.rolled up ‎4.What does Lang Ping mean by saying “It doesn’t matter if we play China or any other team.”?‎ A.American Volleyball Team will beat any team.‎ B.Chinese Volleyball Team is the same as other teams.‎ C.She just tried to stay professional.‎ D.The results of each match will be the same.‎ ‎5.What impressed the US team players most?‎ A.The tolerance of Chinese people.‎ B.The popularity of volleyball in China.‎ C.Lang Ping’s coaching skills.‎ D.The loyalty for volleyball of the Chinese.‎ ‎ [全解全析]‎ ‎1.答案 B解析 本篇文章无明显的主题句,但字里行间都在讲述我国著名排球运动员,现美国女排主教练郎平带队到中国参加奥运会并受到了人们的热烈欢迎,故应选B;而D项意为“郎平的教练生涯”,显然不合题意。但多数学生误选此项,是由于只注意到了局部信息,犯了以偏赅全的错误,而没有真正理解文章主旨。‎ ‎2.答案 B解析 推理判断题。从文章第四段的内容可以推断出朗平希望不要太被关注。3.答案 C解析 词义猜测题。由文章第五段和第六段可以知道,这里的中国球迷应该是“打开、展开”了一面美国国旗,所以选C项。‎ ‎4.答案 C解析 推理判断题。从文章内容可以知道,朗平认为不论是对阵中国队还是其他队,对她来说,这仅仅是一场比赛而已。由此推断选C项。‎ ‎5.答案 B解析 细节理解题。从文章倒数第二段的内容可以知道,排球在中国非常受欢迎,所以选B项。‎ 阅读理解-----A L1PITOR ABOUT LIPITOR ‎ Lipitor is a prescription medicine.Along with diet and exercise,it lowers “bad” cholesterol(胆固醇)in your blood.It can also raise “good'’ cholesterol.‎ ‎ Lipitor can lower the risk of heart attack in patients with several common risk factors,‎ including family history of early heart disease,high blood pressure,age and smoking.‎ WHO IS LIPITOR FOR?‎ Who can take LIPITOR:‎ ‎.People who cannot lower their cholesterol enough with diet and exercise ‎· Adults and children over l0‎ ‎ Who should NOT take LIPITOR:‎ ‎.Women who are pregnant,may be pregnant,or may become pregnant.
