北京市怀柔区2016高考英语阅读类训练（5）阅读下列四篇短文，从每小题后所给的a,b,c或d四个选项中，选出最佳选项。i needed to buy a digital camera, one that was simply good at taking good snaps(快照), maybe occasionally for magazines. being the cautious type, i fancied a reliable brand. so i went on the net, spent 15 minutes reading product reviews on good websites, wrote down the names of three top recommendations and headed for my nearest big friendly camera store. there in the cupboard was one of the cameras on my list. and it was on special offer. oh joy. i pointed at it and asked an assistant, “can i have one of those?” he looked perturbed (不安). “do you want to try it first?” he said. it didnt quite sound like a question. “do i need to? “ i replied. “theres nothing wrong with it? “ this made him look a bit insulted and i started to feel bad. “no, no, but you should try it,” he said encouragingly. “compare it with the others.” i looked across at the others:shelves of similar cameras placed along the wall, offering a wide range of slightly different prices and discounts, with each company selling a range of models based around the same basic box. with so many models to choose from, it seemed that i would have to spend hours weighing x against y, always trying to take z and possibly r into account at the same time. but when i had finished, i would still have only the same two certainties that i had entered the store with:first, soon after i carried my new camera out of the shop, it would be worth half what i paid for it; and second, my wonderful camera would very quickly be replaced by a new model. but something in the human soul whispers that you can beat these traps by making the right choice, the clever choice, the wise choice. in the end, i agreed to try the model i had chosen. the assistant seemed a sincere man. so i let him take out my chosen camera from the cupboard, show how it took excellent pictures of my fellow shoppers. . . and when he started to introduce the special features, i interrupted to ask whether i needed to buy a carry-case and a memory card as well. why do we think that new options (选择) still offer us anything new? perhaps it is because they offer an opportunity to avoid facing the foot that our real choices in this culture are far more limited than we would like to imagine. 1. the shop assistant insisted that the writer should.a. try the camera to see if there was anything wrong with itb. compare the camera he had chosen with the othersc. get more information about different companiesd. trust him and stop asking questions2. what does the writer mean by“it would be worth half what i paid for it” (paragraph 2)? a. he should get a 50% discount.b. the price of the camera was unreasonably high.c. the quality of the camera was not good.d. the camera would soon fall in value.3. the writer decided to try the model he had chosen because he.a. knew very little about itb. didnt trust the shop assistantc. wanted to make sure the one he chose would be the bestd. had a special interest in taking pictures of his fellow shoppers4. it can be inferred from the passage that in the writers opinion, .a. people waste too much money on camerasb. cameras have become an important part of our daily lifec. we dont actually need so many choices when buying a productd. famous companies care more about profit than quality【参考答案】14、 bdcc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。1. six hours free parking if you spend $ 100 or more in our stores you will receive six hours of free parking. when you have spent $100 or more, just take this coupon and your receipt to the customer service desk on level 4. they will stamp your parking ticket to allow 6 hours of free parking.offer here until november 14. 2. win a $1000 cd collection win your choice of $1000 worth of cds from jb music store. just buy any two cds and your name will go into the competition. select your own prize from our wide variety of rock, pop, jazz and classical music. competition ends november 14. prize drawn on november 21.check store for more information. 3. buy one, get one free buy one shirt or tie at daniels menswear, and get another shirt or tie of the same value free. choose from any of our dress shirts and we will give you another one at no cost. hurry!

i had a sudden insight: eyes often mislead and even cheat us while an eyeless man is sometimes lucky, because he has to “look” at the world with minds eye; what eye views may be one-sided and incomplete while what minds eye views is always the true nature.【参考答案】61-65dgcaf【陕西省西北工业大学附属中学2014第六次模拟】根据短文内容，从下框的a-f选项中选出能概括每一段主题的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。 选项中有一项为多余选项。a. current reviews and suggestionsb. commercial pressures on people in chargec. mixed views on current changes to museumsd. collections of factual evidencee. interpreting the facts to meet visitor expectationsf. fewer differences between public attractions61. it was convinced that historical relics provide evidence about the past. such conviction was, until recently, reflected in museum displays. museums used to look - and some still do - much like storage rooms of objects packed together in showcases: good for scholars to study, but not for the average visitor, to whom it all looked alike. 62. recently, however, attitudes towards history and the way it should be presented have become different. the key word in heritage display is now experience, the more exciting the better and, if possible, involving all the senses. on so called heritage sites computers will soon provide reality experiences, which will present visitors with a vivid image of the period of their choice, in which they themselves can act as if part of the historical environment. such developments have been criticized by some experts, but the success of many historical theme parks suggests that the majority of the public does not share this opinion.63. in a related development, the sharp distinction between museum and heritage sites on the one hand, and theme parks on the other is gradually evaporating(蒸发). they already borrow ideas and concepts from one another. for example, museums have adopted storylines for exhibitions, sites have accepted theming as a relevant tool, and theme parks are moving towards more realness and research-based presentations. 64. theme parks are under
