黑龙江宝清县2017高考英语一轮阅读理解编选（三）（2016高考训练）阅读下列材料，从每题所给的选项中选出最佳选项。With all the wars, fighting and sadness in the world today, its not only necessary, but also essential to have a good sense of humor just to help us get through each and every day of our lives. Putting a smile on someones face when you know they are feeling down in the dump, makes me feel good and warms my heart.How would you feel if you could not joke around with your wife, husband, child, co-worker, neighbor, close friends, or even just someone that you are standing in line with at your corner store? I am always saying things that make others smile or laugh, even if I dont know the person Im joking around with. My Grandma always found humor in everything she did, even if it was the hardest job anyone could imagine. This not only relieves stress in any situation, but also is common courtesy(礼貌)to speak to others that are around you.I know of a few people that dont have a funny bone in their bodies, as they say.Everyone around them could be rolling on the floor after hearing a great joke and they would sit there without the slightest smile on their face.They dont get the joke that makes others laugh. I am busting_a_gut while they just sit there, looking at me as if I were from outer space.How can people not get a really funny joke?Laughing is essential to keep your stress levels under control. Without humor we would find ourselves with a lot of psychological problems, or on a lot of medications to keep us from going crazy. There is too much sadness in this present world. It drives people crazy. We all need to find a way to ignore the sadness and bring a little light into our lives. So, I believe our best medicine is to get together and tell some jokes and have some fun laughing together.【语篇解读】 面对生活中的不如意，保持一种幽默精神可以让人觉得心情更好。1According to the author, humor is useful in the aspect that_Ait makes people more confident Bit can pick up peoples spiritsCit can help get rid of the cruelty in the worldDit can help people get on well with others答案B细节理解题，从文章第一段和最后一段可以总结出答案。面对生活中的不如意，保持一种幽默精神可以让人觉得心情更好。2From the second paragraph, we can know that_Athe writer is funny and politeBfamily members should play tricks on each otherCthe writers grandma is humorousDwe should relieve stress in any situation答案C细节理解题，从第二段后半部分可以看出作者举了她的 Grandma的例子，然后最后一句话又得出了结论。3The phrase “busting a gut” in the third paragraph can be replaced by_A. explaining carefully Bspeaking loudCkeeping silent Dlaughing hard答案D词义猜测题，理解这个词组需要结合上下文。本段讲的主要是不具有幽默感的一些人在听到很幽默的笑话后也不笑，和那些很幽默很爱笑的人做了一个对比。理解到这点就可以选出正确的答案了。4In writing the passage, the author mainly intends to_Aencourage people to be humorous in daily lifeBtalk about his own understanding of humor Cintroduce a practical way to get through daily life Dconvince people of the power of being optimistic about life答案A推理判断题，本题主要考查的是作者写作的意图。读完文章，不难发现作者是想让大家在生活中多笑笑，笑对生活中的困难和烦恼。5What is the authors attitude towards the present world?ACritical.

Is there power in positive thinking?Researchers in Canada just published a study in the journal Psychological Science that says trying to get people to think more positively can actually have the opposite effect: it can simply stress how unhappy they are.The studys authors, Joanne Wood and John Lee of the University of Waterloo and Elaine Perunovic of the University of New Brunswick, begin by citing older research showing that when people get feedback which they believe is too positive, they actually feel worse, not better. If you tell your stupid friend that he has the potential of an Einstein, youre just underlining his faults. In one 1990s experiment, a team including psychologist Joel Cooper of Princeton asked participants to write essays opposing funding for the disabled. When the authors were later praised for their sympathy, they felt even worse about what they had written.In this experiment, Wood, Lee and Perunovic measured 68 students self-respect. The participants were then asked to write down their thoughts and feelings for four minutes. Every 15 seconds, one group of students heard a bell. When it rang, they were supposed to tell themselves, I am lovable.Those with low self-respect didnt feel better after the forced self-affirmation(自我肯定). In fact, their moods turned significantly darker than those of members of the control group, who werent urged to think positive thoughts.The paper provides support for newer forms of psychotherapy (心理治疗) that urge people to accept their negative thoughts and feelings rather than fight them. In the fighting, we not only often fail but can make things worse. Instead, meditation (静思) techniques can teach people to put their shortcomings into a larger, more realistic way. Call it the power of negative thinking.41. What do we learn from the first paragraph about the self-help industry? A. It was established by Norman Vincent Peale. B. It is a highly profitable industry. C. It is based on the concept of positive thinking.D. It has provided positive results.【答案】C【解析】细节理解题。原文定位于首段第一句“The $ 11 billion self-help industry is built on the idea that you should turn negative thoughts like “I never do anything right”into positive ones like “I can succeed.”选项中的based on与文中的built on同义。42. What is the finding of the Canadian researchers? A. There can be no simple treatment for psychological problems. B. The power of positive thinking is limited. C. Unhappy people cannot think positively.D. Encouraging positive thinking may do more harm than good.【答案】D 【解析】原文定位为第二段：“Researchers in Canada just published a study in the journal Psychological Science that says trying to get people to think more positively can actually have opposite effect;”之后，作者在下一段又再次强调了这一观点“older research showing that when people get feedback which they believe is overly positive, they actually feel worse , not better.” cause of a tragedy与选项中的cause of the crash一致。抓住关键词“opposite effect；feel worse , not better”，答案即可一目了然。43. What does the author mean by youre just underlining his faults (Para. 3)? A. You are emphasizing the fact that he is not intelligent. B. You are not taking his mistakes seriously enough. C. You are trying to make him feel better about his faults.D. You are pointing out the errors he has committed.【答案】A【解析】与答案较为相近的是选项D。本题关键是正确理解文章中两个单词“underline（加强，强调）”与“dim（迟钝的，愚笨的）”。选项D中的point out是“指出”之意，与文章中的underlining意思不符。44. It can be inferred from the experiment of Wood, Lee and Perunovic that_. A. It is important for people to continually boost their self-respect. B. Self-affirmation can bring a positive change to ones mood. C. Forcing a person to think positive thoughts may lower their self-respect.D. People with low self- respect seldom write down their true feelings.【答案】C【解析】原文定位于第五段Those with low self-esteem didnt feel better after the forced self-affirmation. In fact, their moods turned significantly darker than those of members of the control group, who werent urged to think positive thoughts。抓住关键词“didnt feel better；darker”。45. What do we learn from the last paragraph? A. People can avoid making mistakes through meditation. B. Meditation may prove to be a good form of psychotherapy. C. The effects of positive thinking vary from person to person.D. Different people tend to have different ways of thinking.【答案】B【解析】原文定位于最后一段。作者在最后一段提出了新的心理疗法，建议人们接受消极思维，而不要一味用积极思维去反抗。In contrast这一短语的应用，说明meditation是积极思维的对立面，即消极思维的一种方式。只有把自己的不足放到更广泛、更现实的层面去思考，才会大事化小，小事化了。选项A中的内容文中并未提及。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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。Linda Evans was my best friend like the sister I never had. We did everything together: piano lessons, movies, swimming, horseback riding.When I was 13, my family moved away. Linda and I kept in touch through letters, and we saw each other on special times like my wedding and Lindas. Soon we were busy with children and moving to new homes, and we wrote less often. One day a card that I sent came back，stamped “Address Unknown”. I had no idea about how to find Linda.Over the years, I missed Linda very much. I wanted to share happiness of my children and then grandchildren. And I needed to share my sadness when my brother and then mother died. There was an empty place in my heart that only a friend like Linda could fill.One day, I was reading a newspaper when I noticed a photo of a young woman who looked very much like Linda and whose last name was Wagman Lindas married name. “There must be thousands of Wagmans.” I thought, but I still wrote to her.She called as soon as she got my letter. “Mrs. Tobin!” she said excitedly, “Linda Evans Wagman is my mother.”Minutes later I heard a voice that I recognized at once, even after 40 years. We laughed and cried and caught up on each others lives. Now the empty place in my heart is filled. And theres one thing that Linda and I know for sure: We wont lose each other again!26. The writer went to piano lessons with Linda Evans _.A. at the age of 13 B. before she got marriedC. after they moved to new homes D. before the writers family moved away【答案】D 【解析】细节理解题。根据开始的时候作者与Linda总是一起去上钢琴课、看电影、游泳、骑马等，但后来在作者13岁的时候，作者一家搬走了，两人只能通过书信联系。故选D。27. They didnt often write to each other because they _.A. got married B. had little time to do soC. didnt like writing letters D. could see each other on special time【答案】B【解析】细节理解题。根据文章第2段中的Soon we were busy with children and moving to new homes, and we wrote less often根据文可知，她们之所以没经常写信，是因为她们要忙于照顾孩子，又要搬新家，也就是说，她们没有时间写信。28. There was an empty place in the writers heart because she _.A. was in troubleB. didnt know Lindas addressC. received the card that she sentD. didnt have a friend like Linda to share her happiness and sadness【答案】D【解析】细节理解题。根据I wanted to share happiness of my children and then grandchildren.

They havent kept in touch _.A. for about 40 years B. for about 27 yearsC. since they got married D. since the writers family moved away【答案】A【解析】细节理解题。根据文章最后一段中的Minutes later I heard a voice that I knew very much, even after 40 years可知她们40年没有联系了，故选A。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。 Shirley Temple Black, who lifted Americas spirit as a bright-eyed child movie star during the Great Depression, peacefully passed away at her California home on Monday evening at 85, surrounded by her family and caregivers.
