岳阳市君山区2017高考英语暑假阅读理解技能编练【2015高考复习】阅读理解Many of us still tend to think that emotions can affect reasonablethought，and sometimes land us in trouble.But in recent years psychologists have taken quite a different view.Keith Oatley，Professor of Psychology at Glasgow University，is involved in the research which shows the fundamental importance of emotions.He believes we_are_very_ambivalent_about_them：we think of our emotions as being unreasonable，but we also consider them as essential to being human.For example，Mr Spock，a character in the television series Star Trek，is superintelligent and he has no emotions at all.However，he is never made captain of the spaceship.Maybe，this is because Mr Spock is not the kind of person you can share your feelings witha person who shows his emotions.As Professor Oatley points out，our emotions have very important functions，for example，fear.If we cross the road and a car approaches，we usually stop moving or step back.We stop what we are doing，check what we have done and pay very careful attention to the environment.The emotion of fear makes us take this small series of actions which，on average，help preserve our safety.On the other hand，if things are going well and small problems come up，we find we can solve them with the resources we have to hand.As a consequence，we tend to feel happy and usually continue doing the job.Anger is an emotion that tends to occur when someone is preventing us from doing something.Then this small “kit” of reactions enables us to prepare ourselves to be quite aggressive to that person，or to try harder，and so on.Professor Oatley believes emotions generally occur at these important moments in actions.With fear and anger our emotions make us decide to start doing something else，while with happiness they “suggest” we continue what we are already doing.【语篇解读】相关研究表明，情感对人而言至关重要，不可或缺。1Whats Keith Oatleys opinion about emotions?AThey affect reasonable thought.BThey get us into trouble.CThey are helpful to us.DThey are reasonable.解析细节理解题。根据文章第一段最后一句中的“which shows the fundamental importance of emotions”以及第三段中的“our emotions have very important functions”可知，Oatley认为情感对我们来说是有益的。答案C2What does the underlined part “we are very ambivalent about them” in Paragraph 2 mean?AWe have contradictory feelings towards emotions.BWe have similar ideas of emotions.CWe are quite clear about emotions.DWe can do nothing about emotions.解析句意理解题。根据第二段中的“we think of our emotions as being unreasonable，but we also consider them as essential to being human”可知，我们认为我们的情感毫无道理，但对于我们人类来说，它是必不可少的，这足以说明我们的矛盾心理。答案A3Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?AFear helps us to be careful about our surroundings.BHappiness inspires us to continue what we are doing.CAnger may urge us to make greater efforts.DAnger tends to do us more harm than good.解析细节理解题。本题可用排除法。根据第三段的内容可知A项正确；根据第四段的最后一句可知B项正确；根据第五段的最后一句可知C项正确。答案D4It can be inferred from the passage that_.Awe must control our emotions in daily lifeBemotions play a more important part than we realizeCpositive emotions such as love and joy are good for usDnegative emotions make us continue what we are doing解析推理判断题。根据文章最后一段的内容可推知，积极的情感和消极的情感都发挥着比我们意识到的更重要的作用。答案B。2016高考训练题。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。For most teachers, a day never seems long enough to get all the planning, teaching or paper correcting done. Parent volunteers, if available, can do a lot of help. Teachers can benefit from such help. New books can be marked Computers can be turned on or shut off properly. Teaching equipment can be cleaned and stored away. The list of jobs that parent volunteers can do is endless. Some schools even provide a coordinator to introduce these volunteers to teachers.It is important to make sure volunteers feel useful and are given a variety of tasks to do. When a volunteer realizes there is no real contribution to make, he or she will not come back. Sometimes being given too many boring repetitive tasks drives volunteers away, too.A teacher who wants to use the service of volunteers successfully should give time to the planning of tasks. Make a list of possible tasks for the volunteer to do. The tasks can be kept in a notebook. Information such as class schedule, names of students and school rules could also be included in the notebook. When the volunteer arrives, the teacher may not immediately have an opportunity to explain tasks. The volunteer can then check the notebook and pick a job on his or her own decision.It is obvious that the class benefits from having adults. Children often behave better with the volunteer near them. Some volunteers work one-on-one with children or with small groups, helping children get needed attention. The volunteer can complete paper correcting or other tasks listed above, freeing the teacher for more teaching time.Meanwhile, parent volunteers do need to understand that any information about children is to remain confidential. They should be coached on appropriate methods in a school system. They especially need to be careful of what they say.1. The first two paragraphs imply that _.
