湖北罗田县2017高考英语阅读理解暑假练习（2016高考训练）阅读下列材料，从每题所给的选项中选出最佳选项。体裁：说明文话题：全球变暖词数：350时间：6the un environment programme says that rising temperatures could mean the end for some migrating animals.migrating or mobile animals move through several environments as they travel away from the cold of winter to warmer areas.birds may fly from one part of the world to another, perhaps stopping at feeding grounds on the way.whales and turtles (海龟) cover vast areas of ocean.the report says that changes in any one of the places which these animals use can cause serious harm.“obviously these animals have developed their travelling patterns over thousands of years.but climate change is almost certain to be extreme over the next 25 to 50 years and it is extremely unlikely that these animals can change their habits fast enough，” said the report author dr robert hepworth.hardest hit by rising temperatures are turtles.scientists have found that at higher temperatures, turtles produce far more female eggs than male ones.in parts of malaysia, turtle birthing sites are producing only females, the report says.it also provides evidence that some turtles are more likely to develop cancer as the waters get warmer.with birds, the main problem is climaterelated damage to important areas at either end of the travels or at resting places along the way.about onefifth of migrating birds are now in danger because of climaterelated changes including rising sea levels, land loss and more violent storms, the report concludes.other animals picked out as particularly in danger include：the north atlantic right whale, whose main food (tiny shrimp) is disturbed by the change in ocean flows and the whitenose dolphin, which is outcompeted by other kinds of dolphins in warmer waters.the report is not all bad news.even with major climatic changes, protecting the environment can still help mobile animals to recover.“we need governments to start taking action at the national and international level.the clock is running.”， said dr hepworth.and some animals are already adapting, with the report mentioning whales that are changing their feeding behaviour, finding new feeding grounds and new foods to eat.【语篇解读】本文主要讲述了全球变暖对迁徙动物的影响。1what is the main topic of the text?athe effect of climate change on migrating animals.b.how animals are adapting to changes in temperature.cthe actions required to save migrating animals.dthe need for government policies to prevent global warming.答案a主旨大意题。根据文章大意，本文主要讲述了温度上升对迁徙动物的影响，故选a。2by saying “the clock is running” in the last paragraph, dr hepworth means that “_”ait may be too late to save some animalsbit is time to start protecting the animalscthere is not much time to solve the problemdit takes time to complete the actions答案c短语猜测题。根据前文说的“we need governments to start taking actions at the national and international level”可知作者认为政府应该采取行动解决这个问题，所以接下来这句话应该是进一步强调时间的紧迫性的，故选c。这里面要解决的根本问题是环境问题，不是保护动物的问题，故b项错误。3according to the report, how will global warming affect turtles in the future?athey will only produce female babies.btheir food supply will gradually disappear.csome will suffer from higher rates of cancer.dthey will be in greater danger because of more violent storms.答案c细节理解题。根据文中第二段最后一句话“it also provides evidence that some turtles are more likely to develop cancer as the waters get warmer.”可知水温升高导致海龟得癌症的可能性升高，故选c。文中只是说female egg会多于male egg，不是说只产female egg，故a项错误。4which of the following is mentioned as a consequence of rising temperatures?amore storms will affect the ability of whales to find their feeding grounds.b20 percent of all birds are likely to die out because of land loss.cmigrating animals are likely to start adapting to the changes more quickly.dwarmer oceans will increase the competition between different kinds of dolphins.答案d细节理解题。根据文中倒数第一段第一句话“the whitenose dolphin which is outcompeted by other kinds of dolphins in warmer waters”可知，水温升高使海豚之间的竞争更加激烈，故选d。5what can be inferred about turtles from the text?athey are the only animals besides humans that suffer from cancer.bthey have traditionally lived longer than other oceanbased animals.cthose born nearer a hotter area are more likely to be female.dmost kinds of turtles are likely to die out within 50 years.答案c推理判断题。根据文章第二段第二句可知，高温使得海龟的雌性后代增加，由此可以判断在高温环境下出生的后代更可能是雌性的，故选c。高考英语冲刺阅读理解。请认真阅读下列短文，从短文后各题所给的a、b、c、d四个选项中，选出最佳选项。banks view online banking as a powerful “value-added” tool to attract and keep new customers while helping to eliminate costly paper handling or teller（出纳员）interactions in an increasingly competitive banking environment.today, most large national banks, many local banks and credit unions offer some form of online banking, variously known as pc banking, home banking, electronic banking or internet banking. online banks are sometimes referred to as “brick-to-click” banks, both to tell them from “brick-to-mortar” banks that havent yet offered online banking, as well as from “virtual”（虚拟）banks that have no physical branches or tellers whatsoever.the challenge for the banking industry has been to design this new service channel in such a way that its customers will readily learn to use and trust it. most of the large banks can now offer fully safe , fully functional（功能的）online banking for free or for a small cost. as more banks succeed online and more customers use their sites, fully functional online banking will likely become as commonplace as automated teller machines (atm).online banking has a lot of advantages. unlike your corner bank, online banking sites never close; theyre at hand 24 hours a day, seven days a week and theyre a mouse click away. if youre out of state or even out of the country when a money problem appears, you can log on instantly to your online bank and take care of business. online bank sites generally carry out and confirm （确认）deals at or quicker than atm processing speeds. many online banking sites now offer fashionable tools to help you manage all of your valuable items more effectively.1. the word “eliminate” in the first paragraph probably means “ ”.a. keepb. remove c. reduce d. improve 答案解析：答案为b。本题为词义推断题。结合该词在第一段的前后文，银行认为网上银行是一种强大的增值工具, 可以用它来吸引和维护新的客户，同时也可以帮助 “to eliminate costly paper handling or ”，此处costly意为 “昂贵的，代价高的”, 由此可知，eliminate 意为 “去除” 。故选b。2. what is the challenge for the banking industry according to the text?a. to make online banking attractive.b. to open new services all over the world.c. to offer online banking for free.d. to take care of business 24 hours a day. 答案解析：答案为a。本题为段落主旨题。第三段的首句为本段的中心句，提到了“the challenge for the banking industrythat its customers will readily learn to use and trust it.” 即银行业面对的挑战是让客户学习使用和信任这种新的服务，第三段后面的内容都是对中心句进行解释和说明。故答案为a，让网上银行变得具有吸引力。解答此题同样要注意同义句的转换。3. from the text we can conclude that .a. “brick-to-click” banks are in fact another kind of physical banks b. the function of a “brick-to-click” bank is as common as that of an atm c. a “brick-to-mortar” bank is no better than a virtual one d. customers can deal with their banking by a mouse click 答案解析：答案为d。本题为细节理解题。从第二段 “online banks are sometimes referred to as “brick-to-click” banks, both to tell them from “brick-to-mortar” banks that havent yet offered online banking, as well as from “virtual”（虚拟）banks that have no physical branches or tellers whatsoever.”可知，网上银行有时候被称作是“brick-to-click” 银行，不同于没有网上银行业务的 “brick-to-mortar” 银行; 网上银行也是虚拟银行，没有实体的分行，故a不对；c选项中no better than 意为 “和 . 一样不好”, 与文意不符。在第三段最后一句话 “ fully functional online banking will likely become as commonplace as automated teller machines (atm).”中，注意 “will likely” , 故b选项不对。通过分析知，网上银行被称作是 “brick-to-click” 银行, 可知d选项的意思 “顾客凭借鼠标就可以进行网上银行操作”与文意符合。故答案为d。4. what would be the best title for this text?a. banking of various forms b. improvement of banking industry c. development of online banking d. functions of the “brick-to-click” bank 答案解析：答案为c。本题考查文章的标题。本文都是在围绕网上银行展开，故答案为c。高考英语冲刺阅读理解。请认真阅读下列短文，从短文后各题所给的a、b、c、d四个选项中，选出最佳选项。awareness weeks （认知宣传周）have become a regular part of britains cultural landscape over the past few years . they started back in 1957, when one charity （慈善机构）, christian aid, decided to make all its money-raising efforts on one time of year. it was thought that by doing this they would get more publicity for their cause.they were right, and soon other charities and campaign （活动）groups followed them. these days , most donations（捐款）to charity are not collected on the streets. so instead of just asking for money, charities prefer to spend their time “raising awareness” spreading knowledge of the work they do or the cause they support . they also compete with businesses and trade groups who use awareness weeks as marketing campaigns for their products.there are now 500 awareness weeks held every year in the uk. no week goes by without one group or another trying to make the british public aware of something, with most held in may or october.the danger with all these awareness weeks is that people start to become cynical(不信任). take national smile week; it seems like a great idea. lets all make each others life a little bit happier with a friendly smile. but really its just a group of dentists and cosmetics companies trying to sell us toothpaste. its enough to make you want to start national forget about it week.“people feel that many awareness campaigns are just marketing exercises,” says ms ormiston , who edits the awareness campaign register, a news letter which encourages people who run awareness weeks to become more aware of each other . “but 90 per cent of campaigns are run by traditional charities or not for groups to make money.”“theres still no official group for awareness campaigns,” says ms ormiston. “people can do what they like, whatever the size of their budgets（经费）or their public relations machines allows .”this situation has led to calls for laws to stop real charities having their efforts overshadowed by marketing campaigns. this could be done by making the two groups hold their weeks at different times or stopping businesses running imitation(模仿) charity campaigns.but there is another way. maybe its time for national weak awareness week, especially for people whose awareness of awareness weeks is weak.1. whats the main purpose of awareness weeks run by charities in britain?a. to raise money for charities.b. to spread knowledge of charities.c. to take up marketing campaigns.d. to advertise their goods for sale. 答案解析：答案为a。本题为细节题。从第一段第二句话 “decided to make all its money-raising efforts on one time of year.”可知，答案为a。2. why do people start to become cynical about awareness weeks?a. too many awareness weeks make people feel bored.b. people feel many awareness weeks are just for marketing exercises.c. people have a weak awareness of awareness weeks.d. awareness weeks are held too often and too much money is raised. 答案解析：答案为b。本题为细节题。第四段中提到了人们开始对认知宣传周不满意，第五段中首句 “people feel that many awareness campaigns are just marketing exercises”可知，答案为b。3. what does ms ormiston think about awareness weeks?a. most of the awareness weeks should not be for making money.b. official groups should take the place of charities in awareness campaigns.c. people can do what they like in awareness weeks.d. people can get larger budgets through awareness campaigns.答案解析：答案为a。本题为细节题。从第五段的最后一句话 “but 90 per cent of campaigns are run by traditional charities or not for groups to make money.”可知，答案为a。在第六段中ms ormiston提到认知宣传活动没有正式的群体（no official group for awareness campaigns），因而人们可以做他们想做的，不考虑到活动经费或者公共关系机器所允许的范围。故b，c，d都与文意不符。4. which of the following is the right measure to be taken to solve the problems in awareness campaigns?a. laws should stop awareness weeks
