閱讀理解+七選五限時(shí)組合練4(限時(shí)35分鐘).閱讀理解AA good book is indeed the best friend of a person.The same goes for high-profile CEOs of world recognized companies as well.Lets have a look at the favorite books of some of the world-famous CEOs.AppleCEOTimCook,CompetingagainstTimebyGeorgeStalkJr.andThomasM.HoutThis book is based on 10 years of valuable research done by the authors.It talks about how new concepts of managing time in new product development,production and sales provide companies with the advantages to succeed in this highlycompetitive world.MicrosoftCEO(Former)BillGates,TheCatcherintheRyebyJ.D.SalingerA few themes explored in the novel are rebellion(叛逆),anxiety and confusion.It tells that young people are a little confused,but can be smart about things and see things that adults dont really see.Gates said,“I didnt actually read TheCatcherintheRye until I was 13,and ever since then Ive said thats my favorite book.”O(jiān)racleCEOLarryEllison,NapoleonbyVincentCroninThis book is considered by far the best biography ever written on Napoleon Bonaparte.Ellison said,“Its interesting to read about him for a couple of reasons:to see what an ordinary man can do with his life and to see how history can distort(歪曲) the truth entirely.”O(jiān)WECEOOprahWinfrey,ToKillaMockingbirdbyHarperLeeThis book talks about how a little girl observes the people around her.Winfrey said,“I read it in eighth or ninth grade,and I was trying to recommend the book to other kids.So it makes sense to me that now I have a book club,because I have been doing that probably since I read this book.”1.What is the theme of CompetingAgainstTime?A.How to increase production.B.How to improve efficiency.C.How to enrich experience.D.How to save energy.2.Which book may be chosen by parents to learn about rebellious kids?A.CompetingagainstTime.B.TheCatcherintheRye.C.Napoleon.D.ToKillaMockingbird.3.What can be inferred from Winfreys words?A.She loved reading when young.B.She read the book with other kids.C.The book has an influence on her career.D.The book is about a girls thoughts.BIt can be a real struggle trying to learn a new language.I had always enjoyed learning languages in school,but only recently did I start learning German.I found that I could understand and learn individual words easily,but when it came to literature,I really struggled.That was when my tutor at university suggested reading some childrens books printed in the target language.At first,I felt a bit silly goingonahuntfor a book designed for someone half my age,but then I realised that everyone had to start somewhere.As children,we are given these basic texts to familiarise our brains with certain vocabulary and writing structures,and from there,we can learn and develop.I started with books which are taught to us as children in the UK.I managed to find OliverTwist by Charles Dickens and JamesandtheGiantPeach by Roald Dahl.The beauty of reading books that were introduced to you as a child is that you are already familiar with the plot.As a result,you can work out some of the definitions of words with your prior knowledge of the story.At first,I used to read with the book in one hand and a dictionary in the other,but this method did not work well for me.The method I would recommend is to read a chapter of your chosen childrens book and at the end of that chapter,highlight the words you do not know and then look up the definitions.If you can wait a bit before you use a dictionary,you may be surprised what you can get merely from the context of the sentence in the story.Additionally,a lot of childrens books have pictures which may give you a clue as to what or to whom the passage is referring.4.Why was the author advised to read childrens books?A.Because she was weak in reading great works.B.Because she was slow to learn a language.C.Because she liked childrens literature.D.Because she couldnt remember any words.5.What can kids get from childrens books according to the passage?A.Vocabulary and listening skills.B.Learning methods.C.Words and structures.D.Designing skills.6.What causes the author to feel surprised while reading childrens books?A.Grasping the context from the pictures.B.Looking up the definitions of words from a dictionary.C.Getting familiar with the plots of the story.D.Understanding the words simply from the context.7.What can be the best title of the passage?A.Reading Childrens BooksB.The Way of Learning LanguagesC.The Method of Using a DictionaryD.My Good Reading HabitsCRichasaKingWilliam ,who conquered England some 950 years ago,had wealth,power and an army.Yet although William was very rich bythestandardsof his time,he had nothing like a flush toilet,paper towels,or a riding lawn mower(割草機(jī)).How did he get by? History books are filled with wealthy people who were poor compared to me.I have stormwindows,but Croesus did not.Entire nations trembled before Alexander the Great,but he couldnt buy cat food.Czar Nicholas lacked an electric saw.Given how much betteroff I am than so many famous dead people,youd think Id be content.The trouble is that,like most people,I compare my wealth with that of living persons:neighbours,school classmates,famous TV people.The greed I feel toward my friend Howards new kitchen is not reduced by the fact that no kings each had a refrigerator with glass doors.There is really no rising or falling standard of living.Over the centuries people simply find different things to feel sad about.Youd think that simply not having disease would putusinagoodmood,but nowe want a hot bath too.Of course,one way to achieve happiness would be to realize that even by todays standards the things I own are pretty nice.My house is smaller than the houses of many investment bankers,but even so it has a lot more rooms and I can keep them clean.Additionally,to people looking back at our era from a century or two in the future,these bankers fancy counter tops and my own worn Formica will seem equally shabby.I cant keep up with my neighbors right now.But just wait.8.What does the underlined phrase “get by” in the first paragraph mean?A.Succeed as a king.B.Deal with complaints.C.Live in a satisfactory way.D.Get some extra money.9.How many historical figures are mentioned to compare lives in the past and present?A.3.B.4.C.5.D.6.10.According to the passage,the author intends to . A.tell us to be content with lifeB.warn us to live in a simple wayC.teach us to learn lessons from lifeD.encourage us to struggle for wealth11.Whats the authors attitude towards life?A.Doubtful.B.Optimistic.C.Uncaring.D.Cautious.D“Acting is the least mysterious of all crafts,” Marion Brando once said.But for scientists,working out what is going on in an actors head has always been something of a puzzle.Now,researchers have said actors show different patterns of brain activity depending on whether they are in character or not.Dr.Steven Brown,from McMaster University in Canada,said,“It looks like when you are acting,you are suppressing (壓制) yourself,almost like the character is possessing you.”Brown and colleagues reported how 15 actors,mainly theatre students,were trained to take on a Shakespeare roleeither Romeo or Julietin a theatre workshop.They were then invited into the laboratory,where their brains were scanned in a series of experiments.Once inside the MRI scanner,the actors were asked to answer a number of questions,such as:would they go to the party,and would they tell their parents that they had fallen in love?Each actor was asked to respondto different questions,based on two different premises (前提).In one,they were asked for their own perspective,while in the other,they were asked to respond as though they were either Romeo or Juliet.The results revealed that the brain activity differed depending on the situation being tested.The team found that when the actors were in character,they use some third-person knowledge or inferences about their character.The team said they also found additional reduction in activity in two regions of the prefrontal cortex (前額皮質(zhì)) linkedto the sense of self compared with when the actors were responding as themselves.However,Philip Davis,a professor at the University of Liverpool,was unimpressed by the research,saying acting is about far more than “pretending” to be someoneit involves embodying (體現(xiàn)) the text and language.12.How did Dr.Browns team conduct their research?A.By scanning the brain activity of some actors.B.By doing a survey with some theatre goers.C.By interviewing some theatre teachers.D.By consulting some experienced researchers.13.What is the finding of Dr.Browns research?A.Acting is not as mysterious as people think.B.Actors brain activity differs when they are acting.C.Acting is far more than pretending to be the character.D.Actors brain activity is more active when they are in character.14.How did Philip Davis react to the research?A.He supported it.B.He doubted it.C.He explained it.D.He advocated it.15.What is the text mainly about?A.A debate of how the brain functions.B.A play written by Shakespeare.C.A research on the brain activity of actors.D.A report of the cooperation of scientists and actors.七選五It could happen anywhere at any time.16 Most people,atonetimeoranother,have been on the receiving end of arandomactofkindness.In a sometimes cold world where people can be so focused on what theyre doing,a random act of kindness can make all the difference. They can be relatively insignificant.Hannah Bailey from London,for example,told the Metro newspaper about how she was given her fruit and vegetable shopping for free.The seller did her a kindness when it appeared she didnt have any change to pay.17 The city of Naples has long had a tradition called “caffè sospeso”.When buying coffee,a person who has recently been lucky would purchase two cups but only drink one,leaving the second one anonymously(匿名),outofthegoodnessoftheirheart,for a poor person to claimforfree.18 However,in some cases,these little acts can be amatteroflifeanddeath.Take,for example,the unnamed commuter,who in June 2018 fell off a station platform onto an electric railway track in Toronto,Canada.A quick-thinking,but even now unknown,bystander selflessly leapt down to pull him to safety.So,why do it?19 The people never meet again.According to UK charity The Mental Health Foundation,acts like these can “give our lives new purpose,show us other perspectives on our own problems and even make us feel content.” 20 Hold open a door for someone,deliver a complimenteven give up your seat on a bus.Help someone who is in need.It takes all kinds.It neednt be anything huge.One day,whether you need it or not,someone might help you inyourhourofneed. A.So give it a try.B.Be brave to face challenges.C.Often,the acts arent paid back.D.She was happy about it all day.E.She was in low spirits the whole day.F.This tradition is now more common worldwide.G.Its often unexpected,but almost never unappreciated.【幫你拓知識(shí)】核心知識(shí),詞塊記憶highlycompetitive競(jìng)爭(zhēng)激烈的goonahuntfor.尋找familiarisev.(使)熟悉(了解)bythestandardsof.按照的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)stormwindow遮擋風(fēng)雪的護(hù)窗betteroff境況更好putsb.inagoodmood使某人心情好scannern.掃描儀;掃描設(shè)備respondto.對(duì)做出反應(yīng)inferencen.結(jié)論;推斷belinkedto.與有聯(lián)系atonetimeoranother曾經(jīng)arandomactofkindness一次偶然的善舉outofthegoodnessofonesheart出于某人的好意claimsth.forfree免費(fèi)索取某物amatteroflifeanddeath一件生死攸關(guān)之事quick-thinkingadj.反應(yīng)快的,思維敏捷的inoneshourofneed在某人需要時(shí)答案與解析閱讀理解+七選五限時(shí)組合練4.【語篇導(dǎo)讀】本文是一篇應(yīng)用文。文章主要介紹了世界著名的CEO們喜歡閱讀的書。1.B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第一本書介紹中的“Ittalksabouthownewconceptsofmanagingtimeinnewproductdevelopment,productionandsalesprovidecompanieswiththeadvantagestosucceedinthishighlycompetitiveworld.”這些信息可知:這本書的主題是如何提高效率,故選B項(xiàng)。2.B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第二本書介紹中的“Afewthemesexploredinthenovelarerebellion,anxietyandconfusion.”可知,這本書中探討的幾個(gè)主題是叛逆、焦慮和困惑,由此可知答案為B項(xiàng)。3.C推理判斷題。由最后一段中的“Winfreysaid,Ireaditineighthorninthgrade.SoitmakessensetomethatnowIhaveabookclub,becauseIhavebeendoingthatprobablysinceIreadthisbook.”可推斷:這本書對(duì)她的事業(yè)有深遠(yuǎn)的影響,故答案為C項(xiàng)?！菊Z篇導(dǎo)讀】本文是一篇記敘文。文章講述了作者在學(xué)德語時(shí),因?yàn)榭床欢膶W(xué)作品,開始看德語兒童書籍,結(jié)果卻得到了意外的驚喜。4.A細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第一段中“IfoundthatIcouldunderstandandlearnindividualwordseasily,butwhenitcametoliterature,Ireallystruggled.Thatwaswhenmytutoratuniversitysuggestedreadingsomechildrensbooksprintedinthetargetlanguage.”可知答案為A項(xiàng)。5.C細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第二段中“Aschildren,wearegiventhesebasictextstofamiliariseourbrainswithcertainvocabularyandwritingstructures.”可知:兒童在看兒童書時(shí)可以熟悉其中的詞匯和寫作結(jié)構(gòu),故選C項(xiàng)。6.D推理判斷題。由最后一段中“Ifyoucanwaitabitbeforeyouuseadictionary,youmaybesurprisedwhatyoucangetmerelyfromthecontextofthesentenceinthestory.”可知答案為D項(xiàng)。7.A主旨大意題。全文講述了作者讀兒童書的經(jīng)歷以及讀兒童書的好處,故選A項(xiàng)?！菊Z篇導(dǎo)讀】本文是一篇議論文。文章主要通過與富有、有權(quán)勢(shì)的古人對(duì)比啟迪讀者:生活沒有必要攀比,應(yīng)該知足常樂。8.C詞義猜測(cè)題。結(jié)合對(duì)畫線詞所在句之前的句子的理解,可以推測(cè):沒有這些現(xiàn)代的便利生活設(shè)施,富有的威廉一世如何才能生活得比較滿意呢?由此可知畫線短語應(yīng)表示“過得去”,即“生活得比較滿意”,故選C項(xiàng)。9.B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。通讀全文,作者列舉了四個(gè)歷史人物,他們分別是:William,Croesus,AlexandertheGreat和CzarNicholas。10.A推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章標(biāo)題“RichasaKing”,并結(jié)合對(duì)全文的整體理解可推知,作者通過對(duì)古今生活的對(duì)比,告訴讀者要知足常樂,故答案為A項(xiàng)。11.B推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后兩段,尤其是最后一段中“Icantkeepupwithmyneighborsrightnow.Butjustwait.”這兩句可推知,作者對(duì)生活持樂觀的態(tài)度,故答案為B項(xiàng)。【語篇導(dǎo)讀】本文是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了一項(xiàng)對(duì)于演員大腦活動(dòng)的研究。研究人員發(fā)現(xiàn),演員在扮演角色的時(shí)候,其大腦活動(dòng)模式不同。12.A推理判斷題。由第五段“OnceinsidetheMRIscanner,theactorswereaskedtoansweranumberofquestions,suchas:wouldtheygototheparty.?”,由此推斷出Brown博士的團(tuán)隊(duì)是通過掃描演員的大腦活動(dòng)進(jìn)行他們的研究的,故選A項(xiàng)。13.B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由倒數(shù)第三段可知,Brown博士的研究發(fā)現(xiàn):演員在表演時(shí)大腦活動(dòng)是不同的,故選B項(xiàng)。14.B推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段“However,PhilipDavis,.wasunimpressedbytheresearch,sayingactingisaboutfarmorethanpretendingtobesomeoneitinvolvesembodyingthetextandlanguage.”可推斷:PhilipDavis對(duì)這項(xiàng)研究持懷疑態(tài)度,故選B項(xiàng)。15.C主旨大意題。第二段“Now,researchershavesaidactorsshowdifferentpatternsofbrainactivitydependingonwhethertheyareincharacterornot.”是全文的主題句,通讀全文內(nèi)容可知文章主要介紹了一項(xiàng)對(duì)于演員大腦活動(dòng)的研究,故選C項(xiàng)。.【語篇導(dǎo)讀】本文是一篇說明文。文章說明了善舉通常是意料之外的,但幾乎從未被忽視過,并列舉了一些世界各地人們受到他人善舉的事件和傳統(tǒng)。16.G根據(jù)空前“Itcouldhappenanywhereatanytime.”(它可以發(fā)生在任何時(shí)間任何地點(diǎn))可推知這是不可預(yù)測(cè)的,故可對(duì)應(yīng)到G選項(xiàng)中的“unexpected”,即它通常不可預(yù)測(cè),故選G項(xiàng)。17.D根據(jù)空前“Thesellerdidherakindnesswhenitappearedshedidnthaveanychangetopay.”可知,當(dāng)發(fā)現(xiàn)她沒有零錢可付時(shí),賣家?guī)土怂粋€(gè)忙。故選D項(xiàng)“她為這件事開心了一整天”,前后句連貫通順。18.F本段講述的是那不勒斯市有一個(gè)悠久的傳統(tǒng)。下文為描述這一傳統(tǒng)給出例子,該空位于段尾起總結(jié)作用。由段首句中“tradition”可知F項(xiàng)(這一傳統(tǒng)現(xiàn)在在世界范圍內(nèi)更為普遍)符合語境。19.C由空后“Thepeoplenevermeetagain.”可知,這些人再也不會(huì)遇見,由此推斷這種行為是得不到回報(bào)的,故C項(xiàng)(通常,這種行為是不會(huì)被回報(bào)的)符合語境。20.A空后“Holdopenadoorforsomeone,deliveracomplimentevengiveupyourseatonabus.Helpsomeonewhoisinneed.”列出一些具體的善舉行為,由此可知本空應(yīng)是提出建議“試一試吧”,故選A項(xiàng)。14
