江西崇义县2017高考英语阅读理解（一轮）编练【2016高考训练题】阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项。 I knew a man, a very tall, gentle man, for several years before I found out that he visited prisoners in our local prison, week in and week out for decades. He would write letters for them, carry messages, fetch clothing or books. But mainly he just offered himself. He did not lecture to them, didnt pick and choose between those he liked and disliked and didnt look for any return on his kindness. All that mattered was that they were in trouble.Why did he spend time with prisoners when he could have been playing golf or watching TV? “I go in case everyone else has given up on them,” he told me once. “Ill never give up.” Never giving up is a quality we honor in athletes, in soldiers, in survivors of disasters, in patients recovering from severe injuries. If you struggle bravely against strong opponents（对手）, you are likely to end up on the evening news. But in less flashy, less newsworthy forms, devotion to a task, or a person, or an occupation shows up in countless lives all around us.It shows up in parents who will not quit loving their daughter even after she dyes her hair purple, tattoos （纹身）her belly and runs off with a rock band. It shows ill couples who choose to mend their marriages instead of ending it. It shows up in volunteers at the hospital or library, it shows up in unsung people everywhere who do their job well, not because the boss is watching or because they are paid large amounts of money but because they know their work matters.1. Why did the man visit the prisoners every week _. A. Thats his jobs. B. He wanted to teach them a lesson. C. He was a postman. D. He wanted to show care and offer help.2. From the third paragraph, we can infer that when never giving up is mentioned, people are likely to relate it to _. A. unknown people B. people facing challenges C. the divorced couples D. the hospital volunteers3. What quality does the author value most according to the text? A. The courage to fight against strong opponents. B. The kindness of your friends and family members. C. The faithfulness of unsung people around us. D. The strong will of the survivors of disasters.4. The author mentions the story of the gentleman in order to _. A. introduce the theme B. state a factC. criticize the prisoners D. cover a story 本文通过讲述一位绅士每周去探望囚犯的故事引入话题谈及永不言弃的精神时，人们更可能联想到面对挑战的人们，比如文中所列举的运动员、士兵、灾难中的幸存者等等。但作者认为那些默默无闻，生活在我们周围的普通人不为名利，却对人、对事忠诚如一的品质才是最可贵的。1. D从第一、二段中可以得知，这位绅士每周都去探望囚犯，从不对他们进行说教，而且尽可能帮助他们，不求回报。尤其是从第二段他的回答中可知，因为别人已经放弃这些囚犯，所以他将永远不会放弃他们。由此得知，这位绅士所作一切完全出于关爱，为了 提供帮助。2. B从第三段第一、二句话中所提到的运动员、士兵、灾难中的幸存者以及与对手抗争的人，可知人们经常将永不言弃的品质和这些面临挑战和困境的人联系起来。3. C从第三段But in less flashy, less newsworthy forms, devotion to a task, or a person, or an occupation shows up in countless lives all around us.这句中可以从作者的语气中推知，那些生活在我们周围的未被歌颂的人们所表现出的，不为名利，却对人或事忠诚不渝的品质更令人钦佩。从第四段作者所列举的例子中也可以看出来。4. A通读全文，可以看出。这位绅士行为以及他所表现出来的品质，正是作者下文铺陈文字要赞扬的。因此可知作者介绍他的故事是为了引出本文主题。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。With fifteen years Britain and other nations should be well on with the building of big industrial plants for the recycling of waste. The word rubbish could lose its meaning because everything which goes into the dustbin would be made into something useful. Even the most dangerous and unpleasant wastes would provide energy of nothing else.The latest project is to take a city of around half a million citizens and discover exactly what raw (未经加工的) materials go into it and what go out. The aim is to find out how much of these raw materials could be provided if a plant for recycling waste were built just outside the city. This plant would recycle not only metal such as steel, lead and copper, but also paper and rubber as well.Another new project is being set up to discover the best ways of sorting and separating the rubbish. When this project is complete, the rubbish will be treated like this: First, it will pass through sharp metal bars which will tear open the plastic bags in which rubbish is usually packed; then it will pass through a powerful fan to separate the lightest elements (元素) from the heavy solids; after that rollers will break up everything that can be broken. Finally, the rubbish will pass under magnets (磁铁), which will remove the bits of iron and steel; the rubber and plastic will then be sorted out in the final step.The first full-scale (全方位的) big recycling plants are perhaps fifteen years away. Indeed, with the growing cost of transporting rubbish to more distant dustbins, some big cities will be forced to build their own recycling plants before long.7. The underlined phrase “be well on with” most probably means _ .A. have completed what was startedB. get ready to startC. have achieved a great deal inD. put an end to8. What is NOT mentioned as a part of the recycling process (过程) described in Paragraph 3?A. Breaking up whatever is breakable.B. Sharpening metal bars.C. Separating light elements from the heavy ones.D. Sorting out small pieces of metal.9. Whats the main reason for big cities to build their own recycling plants?A. To deal with wastes more economically.B. To protect the environment from pollution.C. To get raw materials locally.D. To get advantage from those plants.10. The passage is mainly about .A. a cheap way to get energyB. the position of recycling plantsC. new ways of recycling wastesD. the probability of city environment【参考答案】710、CBA C 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。There are some very good things about open education.

After immigrating from England to the USA, and an unsuccessful attempt to make a living as a farmer,he moved to Chicago,where he saw the reconstruction of the city after the disastrous fire of 1871. In those days,it was nicknamed “the Garden City”,almost certainly the source of Howards name for his later building plan of towns. Returning to London,Howard developed his design in the 1880s and 1890s,drawing on ideas that were popular at the time,but creating a unique combination of designs.The nineteenth-century poor city was in many ways a terrible place,dirty and crowded;but it offered economic and social opportunities. At the same time,the British countryside was in fact equally unattractive:though it promised fresh air and nature,it suffered from agricultural depression(萧条) and it offered neither enough work and wages,nor much social life. Howards idea was to combine the best of town and country in a new kind of settlement,the garden city. Howards idea was that a group of people should set up a company,borrowing money to establish a garden city in the depressed countryside,far enough from existing cities to make sure that the land was bought at the bottom price.Garden cities would provide a central public open space,radial avenues and connecting industries. They would be surrounded by a much larger area of green belt,also owned by the company,containing not merely farms but also some industrial institutions. As more and more people moved in,the garden city would reach its planned limitHoward suggested 32,000 people;then,another would be started a short distance away. Thus
