‎2019高考英语二轮强化训练—阅读理解02‎ ‎(A)‎ ‎ Tim was born after his elder brother and sister. He could learn many things from them. Soon, he developed his own way of doing things by developing his mind through his interest in creating stories. He would read more than most children and he gathered his inspiration from history books. In school, his athletic interests were basketball and track, especially high jump. When he found he could jump a little higher than most students, he decided that jumping over a high bar would be his specialty.‎ ‎ Tim continued his learning interest in history which included serious college study, and a Master’s degree. He is now a university professor at a small university in Los Angeles. In the United States there are many schools that have history departments. There are large universities with as many as 60 thousand students and small universities with as few as 2000 students. His degree from a large university with a strong history department has helped him get a good job.‎ ‎ Tim and Kelli like cats. They have two of them and they are special members of the family.

Keep the following things in mind to make a safe escape.‎ ‎●Call“Fire!”to warn everyone in your family.‎ ‎●If you know where the fire is, close as many doors as possible between you and the fire.‎ ‎●If you’re in bed, roll out of bed and onto the floor. Crawl on the floor next to a wall. Being near the ground makes it easier to breathe. If possible, cover your mouth and nose with a wet cloth.‎ ‎●Feel the entire surface of a door before you open it. If the door is warm or hot, do not open it. The fire is probably right outside your room. Find another way to leave the room.

She was their neighbor. Yet none of the 32 helped her. Not one even called the police, Was this in gunman cruelty? Was it lack of feeling about one’s fellowman?‎ ‎ “Not so, ”say scientists John Barley and Bib Fatane. These men went beyond the headlines to research into the reasons why people didn’t act. They found that a person has to go through two steps before he can help. First he has to notice that is an emergency(紧急情况). Suppose you see a middle-aged man fall to the side-walk. Is he having a heart attack? Is he in a coma(昏迷)from a headache? Or is he about to sleep off a drunk?‎ ‎ Is the smoke coming into the room from a leak(漏洞)in the air conditioning? Is it“steam pipes”? Or is it really smoke from a fire? It’s not always easy to tell if you are faced with a real emergency. Second, and more important, the person faced with an emergency must feel personally responsible(负责任旳). He must feel that he must help, or the person won’t get the help he needs.‎ ‎ The researchers found that a lot depends on how many people are around. They had college students in to be“tested.” Some came alone. Some came with one or two others. And some came in large groups. The researchers started them off on the“tests.”Then they went into the next room. A curtain divided the“testing room”and the room into which they went. Soon the students heard a scream, the noise of book shelves falling and a cry for help. All of this had been prerecorded on a tape recorder.‎ ‎ Eight out of ten of the students taking the test alone acted to help. Of the ‎ students in pairs, only two out of ten helped. Of the students in groups, none helped.‎ ‎ In other words, in a group, Americans often fail to act. They feel that others will act. They, themselves, needn’t. They do not feel and direct responsibility.‎ ‎ Are people bothered by situations where people are in trouble? Yes. Scientists found that the people were shocked, they sweated, and they had trembling hands. They felt the other person’s trouble. But they did not act. They were in a group. Their actions were shaped by the actions of those they were with. ‎ ‎62.The purpose of this passage is .‎ A.to explain why people fail to act in emergencies ‎ B.to explain when people will act in emergencies ‎ C.to explain what people will do in emergencies ‎ D.to explain how people feel in emergencies ‎63.Which of the following is NOT true?‎ ‎ A.When a person tries to help others, he must be clear that there is a real emergency. ‎ ‎ B.When a person tries to help others, he should know whether they are worth his help. ‎ ‎ C.A person must take the full responsibility for the safety of those in emergencies if wants to help.‎ ‎ D.A person with a heart attack needs the most.‎ ‎64.The main reason why people fail to act when they stay together is that .‎ ‎ A.they are afraid of emergencies B.they are not willing to get themselves involved ‎ ‎ C.others will act if they themselves hesitate D.they do not have any direct responsibility for those who need help.‎ ‎65.The author suggests that .‎ ‎ A.we shouldn’t blame a person if he fails to act in emergencies ‎ ‎ B.a person must feel guilty if he fails to help ‎ ‎ C.people should be responsible for themselves in emergencies ‎ ‎ D.when you are in trouble, people will help you anyway ‎(D)‎ ‎ Animation means making things which are lifeless come alive and move.‎ ‎ Since earliest times, people have always been astonished by movement. But not until this century have we managed to take control of movement, to record it, and in the case of animation, to retranslate it and recreate it. To do all this, we use a movie camera and a projector(放映机).‎ ‎ In the world of cartoon animation, nothing is impossible. You can make the characters do exactly what you want them to do.‎ ‎ A famous early cartoon character was Felix the Cat, created by Pat Sullivan in America in the early nineteen twenties. Felix was a wonderful cat. He could do all sorts of things no natural cat could do like taking off his tail, using it as a handle and then putting it back.‎ ‎ Most of the great early animators lived and worked in America, the home of the moving picture industry. The famous Walt Disney cartoon characters came to life after 1928. Popeye the Sailor and his girl friend Olive Oyo were born at Max Ficischer in 1933.‎ ‎ But to be an animator, you don’t have to be a professional(专业人士). It is possible for anyone to make a simple animated film without using a camera at all. All you have to do is to draw directly on to an empty film and then run the film through a projector. ‎ ‎66.What does the passage mainly discuss?‎ ‎ A.Animal world. B.Movie camera. C.Cartoon making. D.Movement.‎ ‎67.Which of the following statements is TRUE?‎ ‎ A.People were unable to cause the movement to last or record it in the last century. ‎ ‎ B.Pat Sullivan was a famous early cartoon character. ‎ ‎ C.It is impossible to make cartoon characters do what they are designed to do. ‎ ‎ D.In ancient times people were surprised by movement.‎ ‎68.According to the passage, Felix the Cat .‎ ‎ A.was created by the American cartoonist Felix ‎ ‎ B.was designed by Pat Sullivan in the early twentieth century ‎ ‎ C.was unable to do what natural cats could not do ‎ ‎ D.was created in the United States in the nineteenth century ‎69.It can be inferred from the passage that .‎ ‎ A.Walt Disney’s cartoon characters were born earlier that Pat Sullivan’s ‎ ‎ B.only professionals can create cartoon characters ‎ ‎ C.Popeye the Sailor and Olive Oyo were famous cartoonists ‎ D.the cartoon industry started in the ‎United States ‎70.Which of the following statements best describes the author’s attitude towards cartoon making?‎ ‎ A.Cartoon making is an easy job. Anyone can do it. ‎ ‎ B.Only trained people can be employed in cartoon making industry. ‎ ‎ C.Anyone can make cartoons under the instructions of professionals. ‎ ‎ D.Cartoon making is no easy job. You have to spend much time drawing onto the empty film.‎ ‎(E)‎ ‎ One of the strongest arguments for the raising of the school leaving age(ROSLA)has been that it will bring us some way nearer to“equality of opportunity”.‎ ‎ Many people like to think of our present system of schooling as providing plenty of steps up the ladder of success for clever children. It would be good to think that no one who is really bright can be missed out when the state system is obviously so complete. It is obvious, for instance, that many children from less wealthy homes reach university or do well in other ways.‎ ‎ Unfortunately we now have plenty of proofs that many children of every level of ability do much less well than they could. For instance, during the years of national military service it was possible to test the intelligence(智力)of all male 18 – to – 20 – year – olds. Half of those soldiers who were placed in the two highest ability groups had left school at 15.‎ ‎ It has also been shown that the percentage of working class children going to university is almost the same now as it was in 1939. One study of 5,000 children from birth to 21 years old shows that up to half the bright pupils from working class homes left school when they reached 16 years old. Moreover, there is no difference in intelligence between the sexes, but far more boys than girls stay in education after 16.‎ ‎ It is clear from this and many other proofs that many children are still leaving school too early to benefit from the prizes—money, social respectability, and interesting jobs—which higher education gives. It is clear too that the reasons why such children leave have much to do with their social background. Their parents often need the extra money another money-earner would bring in; they don’t value education for itself because their own was probably dull and unhappy. It is not so much that they force their sons and daughters to leave school, rather that they tend to say, “it’s up to you”.‎ ‎71.It is hoped that ROSLA will give all children .‎ ‎ A.a more enjoyable time at school B.the same chances in society ‎ ‎ C.the right to a better school D.higher scores in intelligence tests ‎72.People would like to think that .‎ ‎ A.equal numbers of poor and wealthy children reach university ‎ ‎ B.those with the least money get the best education ‎ ‎ C.intelligent children are always selected by the system ‎ ‎ D.only really clever children do well ‎73.Working class children are thought to be at a disadvantage because .‎ ‎ A.many of the clever ones leave school early B.fewer go to university than ever before ‎ C.more than half leave school when they are 16 ‎ ‎ D.fewer boys than girls stay at school after 16‎ ‎74.Many children leave school early because .‎ ‎ A.their social background makes them unhappy ‎ ‎ B.they have to give something to their family’s income ‎ ‎ C.their school is a dull and unhappy place ‎ ‎ D.their parents don’t allow them to make their own decisions ‎75.This article shows that equal opportunity in education .‎ ‎ A.is a thing of the past B.has not yet been achieved ‎ ‎ C.is there for those who deserve(值得拥有)it D.has greatly improved our society ‎ ‎ 参考答案 ‎56—60 CBDBD 61—65 CBCDA 66—70 CABDA 71—75 BCABB 一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一
