‎8篇分类高考阅读理解及答案详解 科普类 Passage 1‎ Many cities around the world today are heavily polluted.Careless methods of production and lack of consumer demand for environment(环境)friendly products have contributed to the pollution problem. One result is that millions of tons of glass,paper,plastic,and metal containers are produced,and these are difficult to get rid of.‎ However,today,more and more consumers are choosing“green”，and demanding that the products they buy should be safe for the environment.Before they buy a product,they ask questions like these:“Will this shampoo damage the environment?”“Can this metal container be reused or can it only be used once?”‎ A recent study showed that two out of five adults now consider the environmental safety of a product before they buy it.This means that companies must now change the way they make and sell their products to make sure that they are“green”,that is,friendly to the environment.‎ Only a few years ago,it was impossible to find green products in supermarkets,but now there are hundreds.Some supermarket products carry labels (标签) to show that the product is green.Some companies have made the manufacturing (生产) of clean and safe products their main selling point and emphasize_________it in their advertising.‎ The concern for a safer and cleaner environment is making companies rethink how they do business.No longer will the public accept the old attitude of “Buy it,use it,throw it away, and forget it.”The public pressure is on,and gradually business is cleaning up its act.‎ ‎1.It becomes clear from the text that the driving force (动力) behind green products is_________.‎ A.public caring for the environment ‎ B.companies' desire for bigger sales C.new ways of doing business ‎ D.rapid growth of supermarkets ‎ ‎2.What would be the best title for the text?‎ A.Business and People ‎ B.Business Goes Green C.Shopping Habits Are Changing ‎ D.Supermarkets and Green Products ‎ ‎3.The underlined word“it”in the fourth paragraph refers to_________.‎ A.a selling point ‎ B.the company name C.a great demand for health foods ‎ D.the manufacturing of green products ‎ ‎2.新闻报道类 Passage 2‎ A newspaper in Helsinki,Finland,recently published a cartoon of a baby with a mobile phone,telling his parents that his diaper(尿布) needed changing.But it's hardly a joke.Helsinki is home to Nokia,the mobilephone maker.It's one of the most “mobile”cities in the world.About 92 percent of its households have at least one mobile phone.And the kids start young.‎ ‎“A relatively normal age to get a mobile phone is now 7,”says Jan Virkki,marketing manager for a mobile phone company.Among the second graders at the Kulosaari‎ ‎Elementary School,the most popular object of desire this year is not a Barbie or a Gameboy.It is a Nokia mobile phone with a picture of their own choice on the screen.‎ ‎“One of the first things we discuss when school starts is the rules for mobile phones,”says Tiia Korppi,a teacher.Among the rules:You have to put it away out of sight.You cannot turn it on.You cannot send text messages to your friends,or play amusing tunes(令人发笑的曲调)in class,or call your parents or call for a pizza during history.‎ ‎1.The author uses the newspaper cartoon to show that ________ .‎ A.he is good at telling jokes B.he cares much for children ‎ C.mobile phones are toys for newborn babies D.mobile phones are widely used in ‎Finland ‎2.The passage is mainly about__________‎ A.different uses of mobile phones ‎ B.a successful mobilephone maker ‎ C.effect of mobile phones on children D.school rules for the use of mobile phones ‎ ‎ 3 故事类 ‎ Passage 3‎ New York, 10 November—5:27pm,yesterday. Biggest power failure in the city's history.‎  Thousands of people got stuck in lifts. Martin Saltzman spent three hours between the 21st and 22nd floors of the Empire‎ State ‎Building. “There were twelve of us. But no one panicked. We passed the time telling stories and playing word games. One man wanted to smoke but we didn't let him. Firemen finally got us out.”‎ “It was the best night we've ever had,”said Angela Carraro,who runs an Italian restaurant on 42nd Street.“We had lots of candles on the tables and the waiters were carrying candles on their trays. The place was full—and all night, in fact, for after we had closed, we let the people stay on and spend the night here.”‎ The zoos had their problems like everyone else. Keepers worked through the night. They used blankets to keep flying squirrels and small monkeys warm. While zoos had problems keeping warm, supermarkets had problems keeping cool.“All of our ice cream and frozen foods melted,” said the manager of a store in downtown Manhattan.“They were worth $50,000.”‎  The big electric clock in the lobby(大厅)of the WaldorfAstoria Hotel in downtown Manhattan started ticking(滴答) again at 5:25 this morning.

I didn't think there would be any difficulty in getting it mended, as there are a whole lot of antique(古董) shops near my home. So I left home one morning carrying the chair with me. I went into the first shop expecting a friendly reception(接待). I was quite wrong. The man wouldn't even look at my chair.‎ The second shop, though slightly more polite, was just the same, and the third and the fourth—so I decided that my approach must be wrong. ‎ ‎ I entered the fifth shop with a plan in my mind. I placed the chair on the floor and said to the shopkeeper, “Would you like to buy a chair?” He looked it over carefully and said, “Yes, not a bad chair. How much do you want for it, sir?”“Twenty pounds,”I said. “OK,”he said. “I'll give you twenty pounds.”“It's got a slightly broken leg,” I said. “Yes, I saw that, it's nothing.”‎ Everything was going according to plan and I was getting excited. “What will you do with it?” I asked. “Oh, it will be easy to sell once the repair is done.”“I'll buy it,” I said. “What do you mean?” “You've just sold it to me,” he said. “Yes, I know but I've changed my mind. I am sorry. I'll give you twentyseven pounds for it.” “You must be crazy,”he said. Then, suddenly the penny dropped. “I know what you want. You want me to repair your chair.” “You're right,”I said. “And what would you have done if I had walked in and said,‘Would you mend this chair for me?’”“I wouldn't have agreed to do it,”he said. “We don't do repairs, not enough money in it and too much trouble. But I'll mend this for you, shall we say for a fiver?” He was a very nice man and was greatly amused(感到有趣) by the whole thing.‎ ‎1.We can learn from the text that in the first shop the writer_________. A. was rather impolite B. was warmly received C. asked the shopkeeper to buy his chair D. asked the shopkeeper to repair his chair ‎ ‎2.The underlined word “approach” in the second paragraph means _________.‎ A. plan for dealing with things B. decision to sell things C. idea of repairing things D. way of doing things ‎ ‎3.The expression “the penny dropped” in the last paragraph means the shopkeeper _________.‎ A. changed his mind ‎ B. accepted the offer C. saw the writer's purpose ‎ D. decided to help the writer ‎ ‎4. How much did the writer pay?‎ A. ￡5. B. ￡7. C. ￡20. D. ￡27. 5. From the text, we can learn that the writer was _________.
