肥西县（安徽省）2016高考英语阅读理解二轮摸底训练（5）2016高考英语阅读理解集训。阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（a、b、c、d）中，选出最佳选项。as life expectancy increases nowadays, the average person lives well beyond the age of retirement. as a result, the elderly make up an ever-increasing percentage of society, which makes it more important than ever for a real effort to be made in improving the lives of senior citizens.one way to deal with the situation would be to ensure that the elderly have enough money on which to live. obviously, when a person stops working, they still require a source of income to cover their basic needs such as food, accommodation and heating. a clear solution to the problem is for the government to make sure that the state pension is adequate for these needs.steps should also be taken to overcome the health problems the elderly face. the government should also provide access to the best health care available, which may necessitate paying for residential homes where the elderly can have round-the-clock nursing, or, at the very least, providing medication free of charge to all people over a certain age. the lives of old people could be improved if attempts were made to address the problem of social isolation. if we organised trips for the elderly to community centres, visits from social workers their problem of loneliness can be reduced a lot which marks the lives of so many old people living alone and far from their families.one final suggestion, which would help enormously, is to change the attitude of the community towards its older members, who are all too often seen as a burden on society and dismissed as having little to do with modern life. we need to be taught from an early age to respect the views of old people, and appreciate their broader experience of life. this would help society as a whole, and encourage appreciation of the role that old people can still play today. 32. what can be inferred from paragraph 3?

that may be all for nothing as intel believes that well be able to control our computers with our brains by 2020. intel and its research partners are studying how brain acts when it thinks. for example, scientists have found that peoples brains react in a similar manner when asked to think of a bear. through sensors(感应器)that can find this sort of brain activity, intel thinks that it will be able to read and translate this into an input system thanks to a chip in the brain. “were trying to prove you can do interesting things with brain waves. ”intel research scientist dean pomerleau told computerworld. “eventually people may be willing to be, more devoted to brain implants(植入物). imagine being able to surf the web with the power of your thoughts. ”even if thinking about a bear isnt enough to show that you want to copy and paste something. intel still thinks that theres a future in using your brain instead of the keyboard. “if we can get to the point where you can accurately find specific words, you could mentally type, ”he added. “you could compose characters or words by thinking about letters flashing on the screen or typing whole words rather than their individual characters. ”while this may all sound impractical for present time, intel thinks that its possible and something well all want. “i think human beings are unusually adaptive(适应的), ”said andrew chien, vice president of research and director of future technologies research at intel labs. “if you told people 20 years ago that they would be carrying computers all the time, they would have said, i dont want that. i dont need that. now you cant get them to stop carrying devices. there are a lot of things that have to be done first but i think implanting chips into human brains is well within the scope of possibility. ”make good use of your favorite mouse and keyboard set-up before theyre old-fashioned. 【文章大意】本文主要讲了现在intel及同伴正在研究怎样用人脑控制我们的电脑。1. what are intel and its partners doing at present? a. controlling our computers with our brains. b. working on typing skills to improve efficiency. c. studying how the brain behaves when it thinks. d. finding how the brain reacts when it thinks of a bear. 【解析】选c。细节理解题。根据文章第二段中首句intel and its research partners are studying how brain acts when it thinks可知答案。2. according to dean pomerleau, we can learn that. a. brain implants will not be acceptedb. he holds negative attitude to the researchc. mentally typing will be possible in the futured. people need a period of time to accept the new idea【解析】选c。推理判断题。根据文章第四段和第六段中dean pomerleau所言可以推知c项正确。其他选项所述与文章内容不符。3. computers were taken for example by andrew chien(in the last but one paragraph)to prove. a. nothing is impossibleb. mankind has great powerc. society is always changingd. human beings can adapt very well【解析】选d。细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段首句i think human beings are unusually adaptive可知, andrew chien举电脑的例子是为了证明首句的观点。4. in the last paragraph, the author probably means that. a. there will be no mouse or keyboard any moreb. new kinds of mouse and keyboard will appearc. human brains will replace the present computersd. the mouse and keyboard should be used to the full【解析】选a。主旨大意题。最后一段作者风趣地告诉读者: 人类大脑将控制电脑是必然趋势, 鼠标和键盘终将被淘汰。阅读下列短文, 从给的四个选项 (a、b、c和d) 中, 选出最佳选项。(2013全国，b)the baby is just one day old and has not yet left hospital. she is quiet but alert (警觉). twenty centimeters from her face researchers have placed a white card with two black spots on it. she stares at it carefully. a researcher removes the card and replaces it by another, this time with the spots differently spaced. as the cards change from one to the other, her gaze(凝视) starts to lose its focusuntil a third, with three black spots, is presented. her gaze returns: she looks at it for twice as long as she did at the previous card. can she tell that the number two is different from three, just 24 hours after coming into the world?or do newborns simply prefer more to fewer? the same experiment, but with three spots shown before two, shows the same return of interest when the number of spots changes. perhaps it is just the newness? when slightly older babies were shown cards with pictures of objects (a comb, a key, an orange and so on), changing the number of objects had an effect separate from changing the objects themselves. could it be the pattern that two things make, as opposed to three? not again. babies paid more attention to squares moving randomly on a screen when their number changed from two to three, or three to two. the effect even crosses between senses. babies who were repeatedly shown two spots became more excited when they then heard three drumbeats than when they heard just two; likewise(同样地) when the researchers started with drumbeats and moved to spots.文章大意：本文对刚出生一天的孩子做实验，看他们的视觉和听觉反应。5the experiment described in paragraph 1 is related to the babys_.asense of hearing bsense of sightcsense of touch dsense of smell答案：b细节理解题，根据第一段内容可知，研究者把带有两个黑点和三个黑点的卡片交换放于婴儿面前，看他有何变化，此处是在研究婴儿的视觉。6babies are sensitive to the change in _.athe size of cardsbthe colour of picturescthe shape of patternsdthe number of objects答案：d细节理解题。根据短文第二段倒数第三句话中的“babies paid more attention to squares moving randomly on a screen.”可知，d项正确。7why did the researchers test the babies with drumbeats?ato reduce the difficulty of the experiment.bto see how babies recognize sounds.cto carry their experiment further.dto keep the babies interest.答案：c推理判断题。根据短文最后，研究者一边用图片做实验，同时又敲鼓，引起婴儿的注意，这样做的目的就是进一步研究婴儿的视觉及听觉。故c项正确。8where does this text probably come from?ascience fiction. bchildrens literature.can advertisement. da science report.答案：d推理判断题。本文是对婴儿感觉的实验，是科普文章，故d项正确。阅读下列短文, 从给的四个选项 (a、b、c和d) 中, 选出最佳选项。 (2013全国，c)given that many peoples moods (情绪)are regulated by the chemical action of chocolate, it was probably only a matter of time before somebody made the chocolate shop similar to a drugstore of chinese medicine. looking like a setting from the film charlie & the chocolate factory, singapores chocolate research facility (crf) has over 100 varieties of chocolates. its founder is chris lee who grew up at his parents corner store with one hand almost always in the jar of sweets.if the crf seems to be a smart idea, thats because lee is not merely a seasoned salesperson but also head of a marketing department that has business relations with big names such as levis and sony. that idea surely results in the imagination at work when it comes to making different flavored(味道)chocolates.the crfs produce is “green”， made within the country and divided into 10 lines, with the alcohol series being the most popular. the exotic serieswith sichuan pepper, red bean (
