阅读理解二轮训练（1）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A.B.C和D项中，选出最佳选项。America is growing older. Fifty years ago, only 4 out of every 100 people in the United States were 65 or older. Today, 10 out of every 100 Americans are over 65. The aging of the population will affect American society in many ways education, medicine, and business. Quietly, the aging of America has made us a very different society one in which people have a quite different idea of what kind of behavior is suitable at various ages.A persons age no longer tells you anything about his/ her social position, marriage or health. Theres no longer a particular year in which one goes to school or goes to work or gets married or starts a family. The social clock that kept us on time and told us when to go to school, get a job, or stop working isnt as strong as it used to be. It doesnt surprise us to hear of a 29-year-old university president or a 35-year-old grandmother, or a 70-year-old man who has become a father for the first time. Public ideas are changing.Many people say, “I am much younger than my mother or my father was at my age.” No one says “Act your age” any more. Weve stopped looking with surprise at older people who act in youthful ways.1. It can be learned from the text that the aging of the population in America _.A. has made people feel younger B. has changed peoples social positionC. has changed peoples understanding of age D. has slowed down the countrys social development2. The underlined word “one” refers to _.A. a society B. America C. a place D. population3. “Act your age” means people should _.A. be active when they are old B. do the right thing at the right ageC. show respect to their parents young or old D. take more physical exercises suitable to their age4. If a 25-year-old man becomes general manager of a big firm, the writer of the text would most probably consider it _.A. normal B. wonderfulC. unbelievable D. unreasonable1. C 主旨题。根据第一、二段的最后一句及第三段可判断。2. A 细节题。one是a society的同位语且后面跟了一个定语从句，可以通过分析句子结构得出正确答案。3. B 细节题。全文最后一句话给出了提示。4. A 推理题。可仔细阅读第二段中倒数第二句话。阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A.B.C和D项中，选出最佳选项。There are various reasons why cancers appear to be on the increase. For one thing, though their sufferers are to be found in all age groups, cancers are particularly likely to attack persons in their middle and advanced years. Naturally, since people live longer these years, there are more cancer sufferers than before. Again, with better methods of diagnosis (诊断), doctors can more easily recognize cancerous growths that would formerly have passed unnoticed or that would have been wrongly diagnosed. It is also believed that certain habits and conditions of modem living, including heavy smoking and the pollution of the air, may leave people living in more cancer-causing conditions than before.We all look forward to the day when a simple medical test can find cancer while it is still small. Researchers around the world are working on such a test. Most of their work deals with the examination of the blood.Researchers in Boston have found something in the blood of cancer patients that does not appear in healthy persons. The test showed which persons had cancer and which did not. It was correct more than 90 percent of the time.The researchers believe the test may be able to show cancer very clearly in its development. Cancers discovered early usually can be treated successfully.The test examines very small bits of fat in the blood called lipids (脂质). Cancers seem to change lipids although doctors do not know why. The test showed differences between the lipids of the persons with cancer and the lipids of those without cancer.The researchers say the new test could be a step to develop a simple way to check patients for cancer before the disease shows on an X-ray.1. Who will fail cancer from the study of the researchers?A. The young. B. The middle age and the older.C. The man. D. The woman.2. The underlined words such a test refer to_.A. the test that shows which persons have cancer and which dont .B. the test that may be able to show cancer very early in its development,.C. a simple medical test that cannot find cancer when it is -smallD. a new test that could be a step to develop a difficult way3. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. Cancers have much to do with something in patients blood.B. People living in better conditions are most likely to be attacked by cancer.C.X-raying is the best way to determined whether a person has cancer or not.D. Cancers have nothing to do with a persons habits and living conditions.4. What would be the best title for the passage?A. A simple way to cancer B. Cancers can be curedC. How to find cancer D. Early discovery of cancer1. B 细节题。从第一段中的cancers are particularly likely to attack persons in their middle and advanced years可以知道癌症尤其容易在中年人和老年人的身体上发生。2. B 词义题。第二段中的a simple medical test can find cancer while it is still small；test与后面的such a test指的是同样的一种方法，所以这里的test指的是上句的“用最简单的方法诊断早期的癌症”。3. A 细节题。第三段中提到了cancer病人血液中的有些东西在健康人中没有，并且百分之九十以上的情况是这样的。B项与D项的意思与文章第一段中的certain habits and conditions of modern living including heavy smoking and pollution of the air may leave people living in more cancer-causing conditions不符；C项内容与文章最后一段的意思不符。4. D 主旨题。文章在开头就交代了写作的目的，有各种不同的理由说明了为什么癌症似乎在上升，而从后面的几段我们知道科学家们正在研究一种新的早期诊断cancer的方法。阅读理解。阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。Its easy to see how to help others, but what about those whose needs arent so obvious? This story may have happened a while back, but it was a lesson which has stayed with me and helped me ever since.It was Thanksgiving and I was volunteering with my parents at a shelter for the poor. We stood behind the counter dishing out hot food to whoever came in. most of our dinners looked like they had been having hard times, their clothes old, worn and dry. In shot, they looked poor!Then, a man came in, who looked anything but poor. He was well dressed, wearing an expensive suit. I wondered what he was doing there and my jaw dropped in amazement when he joined the line for food. The closer he came to my service station, the more I muttered. What was this man doing? I wanted to know. Surely he wasnt gong to take food.Then my mother quietly took me to one side. She said, “ You have assumed that the needs of the people who come here must be purely physical: hunger, inadequate shelter and needs are emotional? What if he needs comfort, friends, or just to be among other human beings?” her words hit me like a ton of bricks! I felt like I should apologize to the man, but I didnt. About a week later the shelter received a large donation from an anonymous source. I cant help but wonder if it came from that man.Now, whether I meet others, I remember my mothers words and try to send kindness and blessings to them, regardless of how they look.Needs arent always visible. But kindness always makes a difference.64. The task of the author at the shelter was to_.A. decide whether dinners looked poor B. learn life experience thereC. serve hot food to the poor D. help parents order dishes65. When the man waited waited in line, how did the author feel?A. Surprised B. Pitiful C. Excited D. Angry66. The author felt he should apologize to the man, because he_.A. was asked to do so by his mother B. gave the man food much less than othersC. realized something was wrong with the man D. knew later that the man went there to donate67. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. We should show others kindness whatever their needs are B. Some needs cant be known clearly at timesC. Needs can always be met by kindnessD. We should find out others needs64.C 细节理解题。由文章第二段中的前两句话可知答案。65.A 细节推断题。由文章第三段中的第三句话可知答案。66.D 推理判断题。由文章第四段后两句话及第五段内容可推知答案。67.B 推理判断题。联系全文尤其的首句话，再结合本段中的关键词“visible”、“But”、“makes a difference”可推知答案应该为B项。A、C两项说法太绝对；文章主要是告诫我们：要以真诚善意待人，而并非强调让我们去发现别人的需求，故D项也不对。阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。Teachers using red pens to mark students work could harm their psyche as the color is too aggressive, according to the education strategies drafted by an Anstranlian state government.The Good Mental Health Rocks kit, which was distributed to about 30 schools in Queensland state, offers strategies such as “Dont mark in red pens -use a different color.” Other tips include structurint time for peer tutoring every day, apologizing to students when necessary and asking students to conduct a “personal skills audit” where they focus on their strengths rather their weaknesses.The kit, designed to help Queensland teachers address mental health problems in the classroom, suggests social and emotional well being has been linked to young peoples schooling, among other things. The education aid has caused some arguments in the government, with deputy opposition leader Mark Mcardle calling it “kooky, loony, loopy lefty policies.”But Health Minister Stephen Robertson, whose department devised the kit, said youth suicide was a serious issue. “ If mental health professionals determine that as one of a number of stragegies teachers should consider, then Ill support them every day.” He told reporters recently, “This is not a matter for ridicule, this is serious.”According to some Australian mental health groups, the greatest number of people with mental illness are aged between 18 and 24 years, with 14 percent of Australian children and adolescents suffering from some sort of illness. Boys are slightly more likely to experience mental health problems than girls and depression is one of the most common conditions among young people and increase during adolescence, the website of mental health group Mindframe said.68. The author suggests that_.A. teachers should not mark students work in red pensB. teachers should not be so aggressive to their studentsC. students should be allowed to help their classmates every day D
