2019年高考英语阅读理解一轮练（1）李仕才ACareer criminals begin their antisocial behavior during their toddler (学步的儿童) years and may go on with a life of crime if their behavior isnt challenged, scientists have discovered. While most children grow out of their bad behavior by adulthood, a study found those who had “callous unemotional (冷漠无情的) characteristics” could grow up to have problems with the law later in life. Behavior characteristics such as a lack of sympathy and lying in childhood could have an impact years on.Luke Hyde, assistant professor of psychology at the University of Michigan, said, “These are signs for parents and doctors to watch out for, as they may signal more than just the terrible twos.” He said, “Parents both take care of their child and provide their childs genes so its been difficult to know if were seeing that parenting causes callous unemotional behaviors, or if it is just a sign of the genes being passed to the child.”The research also discovered that strict parenting is linked to the development of antisocial behavior. Scientists looked at 561 families in an adoption study that examined biological mothers antisocial behavior. The scientists found children of antisocial mothers were also more likely to exhibit the same behavior characteristics, despite having limited or no touch with them as they were adopted as babies.“The really exciting take-home message from this study is that small, day-to-day positive interactions (互动) that parents have with their young children can make a huge difference in childrens development, said Leslie Leve, a professor at the University of Oregon who co-led the data collection.“Even when children have inherited (遗传) a very challenging set of behaviors, hearing good job or receiving encouragement can help protect them from developing serious problems coming from their inherited difficulties,” he added. The study, worked on by scientists from the University of Michigan, Penn State University and the University of Oregon has been published in the American Journal of Psychiatry. Researchers will follow the group of children through early adolescence to determine if these behaviors still continue to exist from the toddler years.1.Whats the main idea of the passage?A.

be quite severe.Geographers predict that within the next eighty years，current world climate zones could shift and some could completely disappear.Polar regions will get colder while tropical regions will get even hotter，forcing animals to migrate(迁徙) north.Climate changes like these could lead to the spread of diseases.Tropical storms and hurricanes will not only increase but may also become more intense.If the changes come too quickly，animal and plant species may not be able to adapt fast enough and could disappear.According to Science Daily，a new study predicts that by the year 2100，many of todays familiar climates will be replaced by climates unknown in todays world.It is urgent that we reduce the risks of these farreaching consequences for the whole world.The planet itself has been showing signs of change.In 2004，a serious tsunami created by a major earthquake killed thousands in Sumatra and in 2008，thousands died in China because of another severe earthquake.Egypt was hit in 2009 with a major earthquake and Haiti was devastated in 2010 by yet another massive earthquake.Within just the last few months，new reports from around the world have been coming in and most agree that our climate situation is much worse than previously thought.At this point，it doesnt matter what is causing it，but rather，what can be done about it.Whats more，our world is getting more and more unstable every year.There is war and threat of war everywhere.Natural disasters are becoming more frequent and serious.However，other planets are experiencing global warming as well as our own and some scientists believe there may be some connection between this.No one knows anything for sure at this point because there is simply not enough data.【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了未来气候的变化对人和动物的生存环境的影响。1What is the

protein choices are available to help bridge the gap between our meals and the farms on which they originated. More and more local small farms are popping_up in opposition to factory farms.Todays commercial farms do not fit the image that comes to mind while happily singing along to “Old McDonald”. Instead, most of the nations food comes from CAFOs, Confined Animal Feeding Operations, where animals are kept in tightly enclosed conditions as they are fattened up and readied to be killed for food.Fortunately, knowing exactly where ones food comes from has led to an increase in the availability of what is known as “grassfed” beef. Technically, all cattle are grassfed for at least a limited amount of time, but what makes the meat significant is that it is grassfinished, not forcefed corn, soy or grains. This change in diet makes all the difference since corn is not part of the cows traditional diet, and therefore causes major health issues for it. To deal with the health issues, antibiotics (抗生素) are used and some of the antibiotics used to treat the cattle are similar to those given to humans, so they can decrease the effectiveness of medicine when a consumer is sick.A healthier diet for the cattle leads the meat to lower in both fat and calories. And when cooking grassfed beef, youd better use a slightly lower temperature to make it more delicious.文章大意：本文是一篇议论文。为了应对机械化农业的弊端，越来越多的小农业开始兴盛起来了，它们生产的农畜牧产品不仅丰富了人们的一日三餐，同时也更绿色、更健康。1The underlined words “popping up” (in the 1st paragraph) probably means _.Aimproving BfadingCprofiting Dappearing答案：D词义猜测题。根据文章第一句中“and now more locallyfarmed protein choices are available”可知，现在有更多的当地小农场喂养的动物可满足人们对蛋白质的需求，即当地出现了越来越多小农场，由此可知，appear与pop up意思最为接近，故答案D符合文义。2The song “Old McDonald” describes _.Aanimals raised freely on local farmsBanimals kept in tightly enclosed conditionsCcommercial farms providing fast foodDcommercial farms providing unpopular foods答案：A推理判断题。根据文章第二段第一句“Todays commercial farms do not fit the image.”的提示和下文对商业农场喂养动物的方法的描述可知，the song “Old McDonald”所描述的喂养方式正好和商业农场相反，由此可推知，答案A符合文义。3Some medicines are less effective for beef consumers probably because _.Asome cattle feed on grainsBall cattle diet on grassCsome medicines are used to treat sick cattleDsome antibiotics are used by both cattle and people答案：D细节理解题。根据文章第三段最后一句中“and some of the antibiotics used to treat the cattle are similar to those given to humans.”可推知，答案D符合文义。4We can infer from the text that _.Afood from local farms can help add to the variety in our daily mealsBsoy or grains are on the list of traditional diets of the cattleCcorn for the cattle leads the meat to lower in both fat and caloriesDlower temperature makes grassfed beef more delicious答案：A推理判断题。根据文章第一段第一句“Walking in a farmers market often brings one to explore new food options, and now more locallyfarmed protein choices are available to help bridge the gap between our meals and the farms on which they originated.”可推知，选项A“当地小农场的食物可以丰富我们的一日三餐”符合文义。B、C两项与原文不符；D项不是经过推理得出的，不符合题意，故排除。D(2016贵阳高三适应性监测一)Choose your wish listIts normal for any students college wish list to change throughout high school.But when it comes time to apply，many seniors have a hard time narrowing down their choices.Theres no hard and fast answer，but there are several things you can do and ask yourself to make the decision easier.Here are three pieces of advice that might help.Do your researchAbove all，its important to figure out your wants and needs.What do you expect from your education？What are you willing to give up?Veronica Hauad，senior associate director of admissions(录取)at the University of Chicago in the US，said students should start by taking time to figure_out those questions.“Find the thing thats most important to you，and then you can start searching on that factor and sort things out later，”Hauad said.Dont focus on rankingsIts easy to focus too hard on school rankings，but dont let that make your decision for you when youre looking at colleges.In the long run，rankings probably wont have a big effect on your education.Its OK to look at rankings，but dont obsess(过于执着)over them.Find colleges that really interest you.If they end up being on a top list，think of it as an extra pleasure.Think about your futureHeres an important question to ask all of the colleges on your list：How many of your students find jobs after graduation？An Ivy League school may look good on an application，but what will the college do to help you find a job?Students should also make sure theyre going to college for the right reasons.University of Illinois sophomore(二年级学生) Steve Wang said he has met students who arent looking at the bigger picture.“I see a lot of students who go to college for the sake of the college experiencenot for a higher education.” Wang explained.“So people show up and spend a lot of time at parties and not really paying attention to schoolwork.Thats not really what college is for.”【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文。作者向那些准备申请大学的高中生提供了三个建议：一是做好相关调查；二是不要太执着于大学的排名；三是考虑自己的未来。1What does the underlined part “figure out” probably mean?ALet out.BLook out.CMake out.
