a. small towns along the railways became abandoned.b. some railroad stops remained underused.c. land in the west was hard to manage.d. land grants went into private hands.2. what is the major concern in the development of alternative energy according to thelast two paragraphs? a. the transmission of power. b. the use of money and power.c. the conservation of solar energy.d. the selection of an ideal place.3. what is the authors attitude towards building solar plants? a. cautious.b. approving.c. doubtful. d. disapproving.4. which is the best title for the passage? a. how the railways have affected the westb. how solar energy could reshape the westc. how the effects of power plants can be reducedd. how the problems of the highways have been settled【参考答案】78.1-4 cbab 阅读理解【2014江西六校高三联考】most people will answer a ringing phone.usually you dont know who is phoning or how urgent their business is，so a ringing phone is difficult to ignore.in one experiment，a researcher wrote down the numbers of several public phones in stations and airports.then he called the numbers.someone nearly always answered.when he asked why，people usually said，“because it rang.”a few years ago in new jersey，a man with a rifle killed 13 people.armed police surrounded his house but he refused to come out.a reporter found out the phone number of the house and called.the man put down his rifle and answered the phone.“what do you want？” he said，“im really busy right now.”imagine you are at work and the phone is ringing in someone elses office.do you answer it or not？in one survey on telephone use,51% of participants told researchers that they did.we cant ignore the phone and for that reason，it forces its way into our life.it interrupts what we are doing and on top of that，the caller is often someone we dont really want to talk to.however，in the survey,58% said they never took the phone off the hook，and 67% didnt mind if someone called during a television programme.for 44% it wasnt a problem if someone rang during a meal，while only 28% were annoyed or upset.if someone phoned in the middle of the night,40% told researchers that they got nervous or frightened，while around 30% got angry.of course，when someone is really annoying，you can choose to hang up on him/her.this is in fact one of the rudest things you can do on the phone，but 79% said they were prepared to do it in some cases.only 6% told researchers they never hung up on people.1in the experiment，people answered the researchers phone_.ain order to help him gather the data bfor fear that it was urgentcto test the function of the phone dto show their interest in the survey2the gunman answered the phone because_.ahe decided not to give up his resistance to the policebhe intended to be friendly with the mediache wanted to tell the reporter that he was too busy to offer any informationdhe tended to answer a ringing phone3according to paragraph 3，most people_when they were doing their work or watching television.arefused to answer the phone in someone elses officebcouldnt ignore the phonecminded the ringing of the phonedkept the phone ringing4what is implied by the sentence “79% said they were prepared to do it in some cases”？athey also agreed to hang up on others regardless of rudeness.bthey were prepared to punish those rude callers.cthey were annoying rude callers.dthey were going to hang on annoying phones.5the purpose of the survey is to find out_.ahow the phone interrupts peoples workbwhat role the phone plays in peoples livescwhy people mind a ringing phone sometimesdwhen the phone communication is more welcome语篇解读本文是一篇调查报道。实验发现，大多数人都会接听正在响着的电话，因为他们想知道是谁在打电话或者担心有什么紧急情况。1解析：推理判断题。根据文章第一段第一句可知，人们接听电话是因为他们想知道是谁在打电话或者担心有什么紧急情况。答案：b2解析：推理判断题。根据文章第二段内容并结合文章大意可知，那位杀人犯之所以接听了电话，是因为他和多数人一样，不能不理会正在响着的电话。答案：d3解析：细节理解题。根据文章第三段第四句“we cant ignore the phone and for that reason，it forces its way into our life.”可知，多数人在工作或看电视时，当听到电话响了会去接听。答案：b4解析：句意理解题。根据文章最后一段内容可知，当接听了电话后，如果对方令人讨厌，你当然可以挂断他或她的电话。虽然这是在打电话时很没礼貌的行为，但79%的人说如果碰到类似情况他们也会那样做。答案：a5解析：写作意图题。通读全文可知，本文的写作目的是为了调查人们为什么会去接听正在响着的电话的原因。答案：c。信息匹配。根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。(2014大连模拟)recently a group of second-graders visited our school library to work on a“holidays around the world”project. the children created pictures showing holiday customs and then created voice recordings explaining what they drew. 1now imagine taking things one step further and creating podcasts(播客)in a classroom setting. the term podcast refers to an audio recording, linked to the web, that can be downloaded to a personal mp3 player. the word is created from broadcast and from ipodthe wildly popular mp3 player from apple. using audio(音响)with students isnt new, of course. teachers have used audiobooks at listening centers and recorded student voice on tape or cd for many years. 2podcasts, however, can reach a much wider audience in a time frame outside the school days. booktalking, an old way of getting kids excited about books, gets a tech assistance with podcasting. students can do some booktalking themselves; book review podcasts seem to be another natural way for students to share what they know, providing an alternative to the book report. 3teachers made audi
