2015黑龙江省铁力市高考英语阅读理解暑假训练（2）及答案阅读理解-apresident george bush is heading to camp david for thanksgiving, thankful for his almost-expired privilege of serving as the president. president-elect barack obama is staying in chicago to have a whole bunch of people over to the house and squeeze in some christmas shopping. on a holiday designed for reflection(回忆), one man, historically unpopular, is heading to a remote mountaintop with his family. the other, promising change, is surrounding himself with dozens of people in a busy city. dressed casually in a leather jacket and black scarf on wednesday, obama handed out food to the needy at a chicago church with wife michelle and their two daughters, shaking hands and happily telling people you can call me barack. he followed that with a quick visit to a school next door, where he asked the excited kids, whos going to have turkey? whos going to have green beans? whos going to have sweet potato pie? obama has shown a knack(窍门) for symbolism, in this case following the thanksgiving tradition of helping the poor, said david greenberg, a rutgers university historian who is working on a history of political spin. here hes showing a different side of himself, the president as national conscience or moral authority. i think thats probably a good note for him to introduce in a transition period thats been so heavily focused on wall street and the financial system and these economic problems, he said. hes not forgetting who these economic problems are hurting the most. for bush, his final thanksgiving in office is proving a time for nostalgia. he always reflects a bit at thanksgiving, but he went further as he spared（放飞）the thanksgiving turkey, pumpkin, on wednesday. he gave thanks to troops and volunteers, to teachers and pastors, to all the american people. then he gave thanks for his wife and twin daughters two thanksgiving miracles who we were blessed with 27 years ago and that his mother, former first lady barbara bush, was doing well after being hospitalized. most of all, he said, i thank the american people for the tremendous privilege of serving as the president. this thanksgiving, obama used the opportunity for a relatively rare public event with his wife and children, sasha, 7, and malia, 10 and a chance for a little lesson for the kids. i want them to learn the importance of how fortunate they are and to make sure theyre giving back, he said of bringing the girls to the church. and whats he thankful for? i just want you to know what im thankful for is my family and my friends and my community, he told the schoolchildren. thats the most important thing. 1. the best title of the passage should be _a. thanksgiving for bush and obama b. thanksgiving dayc. how to celebrate thanksgiving day d. thanksgiving day for presidents答案解析：答案为a。本题考查文章的标题。全文报道了即将卸任的总统bush和新选举的总统obama各自在感恩节做的事情。故答案为a。2. the underlined word “squeeze” in paragraph 2 is closest to _a. force b. push c. join d. take答案解析：答案为c。本题为词义猜测题。结合下文的第三段 “on a holiday designed for reflection, one man, historically unpopular, is heading to a remote mountaintop with his family. the other, promising change, is surrounding himself with dozens of people in a busy city.”可知，“one man”指的是第一段提到的president george bush，他和家人一起要去遥远的山顶；“the other”指的是第二段提到的president-elect barack obama，他在繁忙的城市中，周围都是人。可以推断，第二段写的是新选举的总统obama加入了圣诞节的购物潮中，因此squeeze意思最接近 “join”，故答案为c。3. which of the following is not right according to the passge?a. bush is thought highly of by the people in the article.b. bushs daughters are 27 years old now.c. obama visited some of the people who needed help.d. bush gave thanks to troops and volunteers, to teachers and pastors, to all the american people.答案解析：答案为a。本题为细节题。由第三段 “on a holiday designed for reflection, one man, historically unpopular, is heading to a remote mountaintop with his family.”可知，“one man”在历史上不受欢迎，结合上题的分析，“one man”指的是bush，因此a选项“文中人们对bush评价很高”错误，故答案为a。 第九段写的是bush, 由文中 “he gave thanks to troops and volunteers, to teachers and pastors, to all the american people. then he gave thanks for his wife and twin daughters two thanksgiving miracles who we were blessed with 27 years ago”可知，b、d选项符合文意。由第四段 “dressed casually in a leather jacket and black scarf on wednesday, obama handed out food to the needy at a chicago church”可知，c选项符合文意。 4. the passage suggests that _a its a tradition for a us president to spare a turkey on thanksgiving day.b on thanksgiving day, obama mainly has a get-together with his family and friends.c obama asked his two daughters to make contribution to the us economy.d bush thinks it a honour and also a pity to be the us president.答案解析：答案为a。本题为细节推理题，解答此题可用排除法。由第十一段 “this thanksgiving, obama used the opportunity for a relatively rare public event with his wife and children, sasha, 7, and malia, 10 and a chance for a little lesson for the kids.”可知，obama利用这个机会和妻子孩子团聚，没有和朋友一起，故b选项错误。c、d选项未提。因此只有选择a选项“对于美国总统来说感恩节放飞火鸡是一种传统”，文中第八段提到 “for bush, his final thanksgiving in office is proving a time for nostalgia. he always reflects a bit at thanksgiving, but he went further as he spared the thanksgiving turkey, pumpkin, on wednesday.” 由此可知，a选项是正确的。【深圳市2014高考英语综合能力测试题（6）】michael debakey performed more than sixty thousand operations during his long career as a heart surgeon. his patients included american presidents john kennedy, lyndon johnson and richard nixon. they also included russian president boris yeltsin and the shah of iran. doctor debakey died on july 11, 2008 in houston, texas, two months short of his onehundredth birthday. as a medical student, he invented the roller pump in 1931. years later it was used for blood transfusions during heart operations. the roller pump became a major part of the heart-lung machine. the machine pumps oxygen-rich blood to the brain and other organs so that doctors can operate on the heart. michael debakey was a pioneer of open-heart surgery, who had saved countless lives. open-heart surgery means that the chest is open and surgery is performed on the heart. doctors may or may not open the heart itself as well. michael debakey was born in lake charles, louisiana, on september 7, 1908. his parents were lebanese immigrants. when he was a child, his mother taught him to sew. later he sewedpolyester tubes (多元酯管) for patients to perform heart bypass operations(搭桥手术).he developed a way to replace or repair .a blood vessel with dacron, a man-made material and he continued to improve it in the process. today this technology is used around the world. he was also a pioneer in artificial hearts, heart transplants and recording surgery on film. he brought a revolution to medicine in the 1950s and 1960s. during world war ii, he helped develop the mobile army surgical hospital. michael debakey earned his medical degree in 1932 from tulane university in new orleans. for years he led the baylor college of medicine in, houston. he joined the college in 1948 when the school was still part of baylor university. he became president of the medical college in 1969. over the years, he received many awards. in april, 2008, he received congress highest civilian honor, the congressional gold medal.36. what can we know about michael debakey?
