江苏2019高考英语阅读理解试题练习04及解析或解析(12月)‎ 山东省济宁实验中学2018届高三月考 ‎ A ‎ There are two types of people in the world. Although they have equal degree of health and wealth and other comforts of life, one becomes happy; the other becomes unhappy. This arises from the different ways in which they consider things, persons, events and the resulting effects upon their minds.‎ ‎ People who are to be happy fix their attention on the convenience of things: the pleasant parts of conversation, the well prepared dishes, the goodness of the wine, and the fine weather. They enjoy all the cheerful things. Those who are to be unhappy think and speak only of the opposite things. Therefore, they are continually dissatisfied. By their remarks, they sour the pleasure of society, offend (hurt) many people, and make themselves disagreeable everywhere. The intention of criticizing and being disliked is perhaps taken up by imitation(仿效)。 It grows into a habit, unknown to its possessors. The habit may be strong, but it may be cured when those who have it realize its bad effects on their interests and tastes. I hope this little warning may be of service to them, and help them change this habit.‎ ‎ Although in fact it is chiefly an act of the imagination, it has serious results in lfe since it brings on deep sorrow and bad luck. Those people offend many others; nobody loves them, and no one treats them with more than the most common politeness and respect. If they bring on themselves public objections, no one will defend or excuse them, and many will join to criticize their wrong doings. These people should change this bad habit and be pleased with what is pleasing, without worrying needlessly about themselves and others. If they don’t, it will be good for others to avoid any contact with them. Otherwise, it can be disagreeable and sometimes very inconvenient, especially when one becomes mixed up in their quarrels.‎ ‎56. People who are unhappy ______.‎ A. always consider things differently from others B. usually are affected by the results of certain things C. usually misunderstand what others think or say D. always discover the unpleasant side of certain things ‎57. The underlined phrase “sour the pleasure of society” in the second paragraph means ______.‎ A. have a good taste with social life B. make others unhappy C. tend to scold others openly D. enjoy the pleasure of life ‎58. We can conclude from the passage that_______.‎ A. we should pity all such unhappy people.‎ B. such unhappy people are dangerous to social life.‎ C. people can get rid of the habit of unhappiness.‎ D. unhappy people can not understand happy persons.‎ ‎59. If such unhappy person insists on keeping the habit, the author suggests people should______.‎ A. prevent any communication with them.‎ B. show no respect and politeness to them C. persuade them to recognize the bad effects D. quarrel with them until they realize the mistakes ‎60. According to the passage, the writer prefers to communicate with_____.‎ A. people who are happy B. people who are unhappy C. A and B D. None of them ‎56—60.

Nauru’s heartbreaking story could have one good consequence –other countries might learn from its mistakes.‎ For thousands of years, Polynesian people lived on the remote island‎ of ‎Nauru, far from western civilization. The first European to arrive was John Fearn in 1798. He was the British captain of the Hunter, a whaling ship. He called the island Pleasant Island.‎ However, because it was very remote, Nauru had little communication with Europeans at first. The whaling ships and other traders began to visit, bringing guns and alcohol. These elements destroyed the social balance of the twelve family groups on the island. A ten-year civil war started, which reduced the population from 1,400 to 900.‎ Nauru’s real troubles began in 1899 when a British mining company discovered phosphate (磷酸盐) on the island. In fact, it found that the island‎ of ‎Nauru was nearly all phosphate, which is a very important fertilizer for farming. The company began mining the phosphate.‎ A phosphate mine is not a hole in the ground; it is a strip mine. When a company strip-mines, it removes the top layer(层) of soil. Then it takes away the material it wants. Strip mining(开采) totally destroys the land. Gradually, the lovely island‎ of ‎Nauru started to look like the moon.‎ In 1968, Nauru became one of the richest countries in the world. Every year the government received millions and millions of dollars for its phosphate.‎ Unfortunately, the leaders invested(投资) the money unwisely and lost millions of dollars. In addition, they used millions more dollars for personal expenses. Soon people realized that they had a terrible problem—their phosphate was running out. Ninety percent of their island was destroyed and they had nothing. By 2000, Nauru was financially ruined. Experts say that is would take approximately $433,600,000 and more than 20 years to repair the island. This will probably never happen.‎ ‎61. What might be the author’s purpose in writing the text?‎ ‎ A. To seek help for Nauru’s problem. B. To give a warning to other countries.‎ ‎ C. To show the importance of money. D. To tell a heart-breaking story of a war.‎ ‎62. What was Nauru like before the Europeans came?‎ ‎ A. Rich and powerful. B. Modern and open.‎ ‎ C. Peaceful and attractive. D. Greedy and aggressive.‎ ‎63. The ecological disaster in Nauru resulted from ________.‎ ‎ A. soil pollution B. phosphate over mining C. farming activity D. whale hunting ‎64. Which of the following was a cause of Nauru’s financial problem？‎ ‎ A. Its leaders misused the money. B. It spent too much repairing the island.‎ ‎ C. Its phosphate mining cost much money. D. It lost millions of dollars in the civil war.‎ ‎65. What can we learn about Bauru from the last paragraph?‎ ‎ A. The ecological damage is difficult to repair.‎ ‎ B. The leaders will take the experts’ words seriously.‎ ‎ C. The island was abandoned by the Nauruans.‎ ‎ D. The phosphate mines were destroyed.‎ ‎61—65.

Even though New Zealand has quite generous rules about naming children, names beginning with a number are not allowed. They decided to call him Superman instead.‎ In many countries around the world, unusual names for children are becoming more popular, especially since the increasing trend for celebrities (名人) to give their children wacky names. In Britain, you can call a child almost anything you like--the only restrictions (限制) on parents relates to offensive words such as swear (立誓，起誓) words.‎ Some parents choose names which come from popular culture. For example, there have been six boys named Gandalf after the character in the Lord of the Rings novels and films. Equally, names related to sport are fairly common--since 1984, 36 children have been called Arsenal after the football team.‎ Other parents like to make up manes, or combine names to make their own unique version, a method demonstrated by Jordan, the British model, who recently invented the name Tiaamii for her daughter by combining the names Thea and Amy (the two grandmothers). She was quoted as saying that the accent and double letters were added to make the name “more exotic”.‎ Other countries have much stricter rulers when it comes to naming children. Countries including Japan, Denmark, Spain, Germany and Argentina have an approved list of names from which parents must choose. In China, there are some rules about what you may call a child --- no foreign letters or symbols are allowed. As a result a couple were recently banned from calling their baby @.‎ In Britain, some names which were previously thought of as old-fashioned have become more popular again, such as Maisie or Ella for a girl, or Alfie or Noah for a baby. But the most popular names are not the odd ones. The top names are fairly traditional -- Jack, Charlie and Thomas for boys and Grace, Ruby and Jessica for girls.‎ ‎66. According to the first paragraph, in New Zealand_____.‎ A. there are many rules about naming children.‎ B. no people are willing to use 4 Real as names.‎ C. people have much freedom to name their children.‎ D. traditional names are losing their popularity.‎ ‎67. The underlined part “wacky names” in Paragraph 2 refers to names that are______.‎ A. strange B. admirable C. traditional D. popular ‎68. Which of the following names is best accepted according to the passage?‎ A. Arsenal B. Charlie C. Tiaamii D. Noah ‎69. The two couples in China and in New Zealand have something in common that_____.‎ A. their preference is foreign names B. there attempt goes against rules C. they hope their child grows healthily D. they show no interest in tradition ‎70. What can be concluded from the passage?‎ A. parents have no right to name their children in Spain.‎ B. Tiaamii will soon be a popular name among the British.‎ C. No parents speak bad language to their child in Britain.‎ D. Popular culture has an influence in naming children.‎ ‎66—70CABBD ‎ ‎***************************************************‎ 山东省济宁实验中学2018届高三月考----D Dear Cary,‎ I’m writing because I’ve understood you’ve struggled with alcoholism (酗酒).

According to the passage, global warming is now mainly caused by _____ .‎ A. methane B. carbon dioxide C. livestock passing wind D. not mention in this passage ‎56. D 考查细节理解。A、B、C均是导致全球变暖的原因，但文中并没有提到哪一个是主要原因，因此答案为D文中没有提到。‎ ‎57. What does the underlined phrase “the idea”（paragraph 9）refer to?‎ A. Australians should give kangaroo-style stomachs to cattle and sheep.‎ B. The bacteria could make the digestive process much more efficient.‎ C. Australians should farm fewer cattle and sheep and just eat more kangaroos.‎ D. The bacteria could potentially save millions of dollars in feed costs for farmers.‎ ‎57. C 考查猜测词义。从上文“另一组科学家建议澳大利亚人应少养牛羊，多吃袋鼠肉”及下文“尽管这一观点有争议，但目前约有20%健康意识较强的澳大利亚人已经吃上了被视为“国家象征”的袋鼠”可知这一观点指的是上文“澳大利亚人应少养牛羊，多吃袋鼠肉”。‎ ‎58. How will Australian scientists solve the problem of global warming?‎ A. Eating more kangaroos. ‎ B. Killing more cattle and sheep.‎ C. Letting cattle and sheep pass less wind.‎ D. Transferring the special bacteria in kangaroos’ stomachs to cattle and sheep.‎ ‎58. A 考查推理判断。从文章第一﹑二自然段“为了减少导致全球变暖的温室气体的排放，澳大利亚科学家目前正在想办法将牛羊胃变成袋鼠式的胃。袋鼠胃中有一种特殊的细菌能使其放的屁中不含有甲烷。科学家想将这种细菌移至牛羊的胃中，以抑制它们所排放的大量有害气体。”可推断得知。‎ ‎************************************************************结束 ‎【阅读判断推理篇】‎ 词数：284 体裁：广告 难度：3‎ Is veg food healthier than non-veg food? I feel this is a very common topic that people speak on．Please give me your opinions on this topic．‎ Rao ‎ ‎12-18-08‎ So far as veg food is concerned, it is also proved to be a healthy and nutritious diet, but has very few items which can provide us with proteins, but if you see non-veg food like eggs, chicken, and many more, such foods have a large content of proteins in them.‎ Sai ‎ ‎12-19-08‎ Man basically is herbivorous（食草的）. If we look at the animal kingdom ‎ We can see that all the herbivorous animals have the similar dental（牙齿的）‎ structure, which clearly shows that the human being also ought to be vegetarian ‎ by birth. It is only the living conditions that make man carnivorous（食肉的）. ‎ The vegetarian foods are easily digestible.‎ Santos‎ ‎ ‎12-20-08‎ Non-veg food items are better than veg items. A healthy person requires complete diet and veg+ meat makes the diet complete. The only caution that needs to be taken is not to have non-veg items on a daily basis. Once in a week or couple of weeks will be best.‎ Krishna ‎01-03-09‎ When we eat non-veg, we are all veg by nature. The chicken that we eat feeds on grains, the mutton that we eat feeds on grass, and the fish that we eat feeds on simple plants. So non-veg food by logic（逻辑）is better and suited for hauman beings.‎ Khan ‎01-05-09‎ Non-veg food is equally important in our diet as it helps in many ways, especially fish and other seafood as fish contains omega 3 which makes our immune system（免疫系统）stronger. Do you know that most of the veg food put together does not contain as much omega 3 as fish alone contains!‎ ‎68．According to Rao, what is the problem with veg food?‎ ‎ A．It damages our immune system.‎ ‎ B．It has few nutrients.‎ ‎ C．It contains too much omega 3.‎ ‎ D．It is lacking in protein.‎ ‎69．In the opinion of Sai, humans are born vegetarian because humans .‎ ‎ A．have the same teeth structure as plant-eating animals ‎ B．believe that veg foods are good for their teeth ‎ C．belong to the plant-eating animal family ‎ D．can adapt to the living conditions like plant-eating animals ‎70．What advice is given by Santos?‎ ‎ A．To have a saily veg+ meat diet.‎ ‎ B．Not to eat non-veg food every day.‎ ‎ C．To eat digestible food every day.‎ ‎ D．Not to eat food without protein.‎ ‎【文章大意】素食和肉食，哪一种食物更健康呢?对于这个问题的回答，仁者见仁，智者见智。‎ ‎68．D考查细节理解。从文章第二栏中but has very few items which can provide us with proteins．可知Rao认为素食缺乏蛋白质。‎ ‎69．A考查细节理解。根据第三栏的all the herbivorous animals have the similar dental structure，which clearly shows that the human being also 0Ilght to be vegetarian by birth可知食草动物的牙齿结构于人类的牙齿结构相似，所以Sai认为人类天生是素食的。‎ ‎70．B考查细节理解。根据第四栏的The only caution that needs to be taken is not to have non-veg items on a daily basis．可知Santos建议不要天天吃肉类食物。所以选B。‎ ‎**********************************************************结束
