‎2019高考英语二轮阅读理解精选专练系列（07）及解析 ‎（A）‎ ‎ As you grow rapidly through your teenage years，you will experience a lot of changes. The changes may seem difficult and they may seem to happen quickly. Don’t panic！You will deal successfully with them！You are a young adult now! ‎ ‎ With more responsibility，you will find more freedom to make your own choices. This is a time to be well informed about your choices so that you can make healthy balanced decisions that will help shape your future. You may already know your career path or you may have no idea at all what you want to do. Both situations are fine！Work hard and the right opportunity will present itself to you. ‎ ‎ Young adulthood means greater freedom and more choices. You will probably want to be independent. But try not to shut your family out of your life. You should learn to think of others even though you are old enough to look after yourself. Your family have been with you since you came into this world. ‎ ‎ It is also perfectly natural in this time for you to spend more time with your friends than your family. Choose your friends wisely. A true friend will stand by you no matter what happens. ‎ ‎ This period is part of the life cycle. There are some people who will be with you throughout life’s journey and there will be some people with whom you part and go separate ways. Leaving school can be hard. The reality is that you may not ever see all of your classmates again. ‎ ‎ You are a young adult. It is your life. No one can live it for you. The choices that you make from now on will be your choices. So making the right choices will be important to you. Life is for living. Enjoy your life wisely! ‎ ‎56．The best title for this passage would be ______. ‎ A．The Choices in Life B．The Key to Success C．Say Goodbye to the Past D．Becoming a Young Adult ‎57．Who do the underlined words“some people”(Paragraph 5)probably refer to? ‎ A．your parents B．your classmates C．true friends D．your relatives ‎58．The author thinks teenage years are ______. ‎ A．a period of complete freedom B．too hard for young people to get through C．an important time for the young to make the right choices D．a very important period for young students to leave their parents ‎59．Who is the passage mainly written for? ‎ A．Teenagers. B．Teachers. ‎ C．Young parents. D．Adults. ‎ ‎（B）‎ ‎ Having one of those days—or weeks—when everything seems to annoy you? Even if you ‎ do nothing about it, your bad mood(心情) will probably go away after some time. But with a little effort, you can forget it much faster—often within a day or two. ‎ ‎ Walk it off ‎ Exercise is the most popular bad-mood buster. A person who’s in a bad mood has low energy and high tension. Taking a fast ten-minute walk, or doing some quick exercises can do wonders towards changing the bad mood. ‎ ‎ Tune it out ‎ Listening to your favorite music for a while can also make tension go away quickly, because music starts connection with past positive experiences we’ve had. ‎ ‎ Give yourself a pep talk ‎ Stop and listen to what’s on your mind. Bad moods are often started by too many negative thoughts. Write them all down on paper, the pessimistic(悲观旳) messages you’ve been giving yourself, and then give optimistic answers. (“I still don’t have a job. ” vs “I have two interviews next week. ”) ‎ ‎ Reduce your stress ‎ Relaxation techniques are wonderful mood-lifters. These include deep breathing, stretching and visualizing, all of which sound complicated(复杂旳) but aren’t. One easy way to visualize: close your eyes and picture a favorite place, such as the beach. Another simple way to distress is to make a to-do list. One reason for being in a bad mood is feeling you have no options. By taking control over certain areas, you realize you’re not helpless. You can make changes in your mood and life. ‎ ‎ Avoid things that won’t improve your mood ‎ TV may not help much: you need to increase your energy level and stimulate(刺激) your mind—something that the TV show “Neighbors” won’t do. And before you reach for that piece of cake and coffee, think about how mood and food are linked. Sugar and caffeine contribute to depressed moods. The better choice? Research shows that carbohydrates, such as potatoes and pasta(面食), produce calming effects on people who have a desire for them. ‎ ‎60．Which of the following may help us stop a bad mood? ‎ A. Doing nothing about it. ‎ B. Exercising and enjoying music. ‎ C. Writing down negative thoughts. ‎ D. Talking about it with neighbors. ‎ ‎61．Why is it suggested that you close your eyes and picture the beach? ‎ A. It helps remove bad mood. ‎ B. It brings us a new technique. ‎ C. It is not complicated to do so. ‎ D. It is an area to be easily controlled. ‎ ‎62．TV may not improve your mood because it _____. ‎ A. shows what happens around you B. does not energize you C. reminds you of eating and drinking D. produces a calm effect ‎63．Which would be the best title for this passage? ‎ A. Energy Level and Stress B. How to Beat a Bad Mood C. Bad Mood and Our Life ‎ D. How to Control Your Feeling ‎（C）‎ ‎ A funny thing happened on the way to the communications revolution: we stopped talking to one another. ‎ ‎ I was walking in the park with a friend recently, and his cell phone rang, interrupting our conversation. There we were, walking and talking on a beautiful sunny day and. . . I became invisible, absent from the conversation. ‎ ‎ The telephone used to connect you to the absent. Now it makes people sitting next to you feel absent. Why is it that the more connected we get, the more disconnected I feel? Every advance in communications technology is a tragedy to the closeness of human interaction. With email and instant messaging over the Internet, we can now communicate without seeing or talking to one another. With voice mail, you can conduct entire conversations without ever reaching anyone. If my mom has a question, I just leave the answer on her machine. ‎ ‎ As almost every contact we can imagine between human beings gets automated, the alienation index goes up. You can’t even call a person to get the phone number of another person any more. Directory assistance is almost always fully automated. ‎ ‎ I am not against modern technology. I own a cell phone, an ATM card, a voice mail system, and an email account. Giving them up isn’t wise. . . they’re a great help to us. It’s some of their possible consequences that make me feel uneasy. ‎ ‎ More and more. I find myself hiding behind e-mail to do a job meant for conversation. Or being relieved that voice mail picked up because I didn’t really have time to talk. The industry devoted to helping me keep in touch is making me lonelier . . . or at least facilitating my antisocial instincts. ‎ ‎ So I’ve put myself on technology restriction: no instant messaging with people who live near me, no cell phoning in the presence of friends, no letting the voice mail pick up when I’m at home. ‎ ‎64．Which of the following would be the best title of the passage? ‎ A. The Advance of Communications Technology B. The Consequences of Modern Technology C. The Story of Communications Revolution D. The Automation of Modern Communications ‎65．The sentence “Now it makes people sitting next to you feel absent. ” means that______. ‎ A. the people sitting beside you have to go away to receive a phone call B. you can hardly get in touch with the people sitting beside you C. modern technology makes it hard for people to have a face-to-face talk D. people can now go to work without going to the office ‎66．The writer feels that the use of modern communications is _____ . ‎ A. satisfying B. encouraging C. disappointing D. embarrassing ‎67．The passage implies that _____. ‎ A. modern technology is bridging the people B. modern technology is separating the people C. modern technology is developing too fast D. modern technology is interrupting our communications ‎（D）‎ Cholesterol Dr. Arlene Donar, Medical Director SPECIAL PURCHASE ‎ ‎ Watchers ALERT-JULY 2008 ‎ ‎ “BEST PRODUCT WE’VE EVER SEEN”－THIS REALLY WORKS－ON SALE NOW ‎ Need to lower your cholesterol（胆固醇）？We strongly recommend CholesterolblockTM.
