B.Action.C.Green living. D.Psychological distance.答案B解析细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句“After all，actions speak louder than knowledge.”可知Mr.Hempel的观点是行动更重要，故最佳答案为B。3.Mr.Hempel thinks people show no concern about some environmental problems because .A.they lack knowledge on environment protectionB.they have no awareness of environment protectionC.some environmental problems are not worse at allD.some environmental problems happened far away答案D解析细节理解题。根据第五段中的“Some people call it psychological distance(有些人叫它心理距离).”以及“And so，theres a certain distance(这里是有一定距离的).”，可知人们对一些环境问题不关心，是因为有些环境问题发生在遥远的地方，故最佳答案为D。4.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A.Experts think it is the best way to learn nature in school.B.Climbing a high mountain is a good way to exercise well.C.Changing peoples attitude to environment protection is hard.D.Knowledge can help children take action to protect the environment.答案C解析推理判断题。根据最后一段最后一句“But he also points out we have a high mountain for people to climb from knowledge to action(但他也指出对许多人来说从知识到行动有一座高山要爬).”可知要改变人们对环境保护的态度是很难的。2016高考英语阅读理解集训。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。Some kinds of mental skills naturally decrease as people get older. Yet research seems to show that some training can improve such skills. A recently published study also appears to attest that the good effects of training can last for many years after that training has ended.Researchers at Johns Hopkins University in Maryland wanted to learn how long memory and thinking skills would last in older people who were trained to keep them. The people were part of the ten-year research project. They were taught methods meant to improve their memory, thinking and ability to perform everyday tasks.More than 2,800 volunteered for the study called ACTIVE short for Advanced Cognitive Training for Independent and Vital Elderly. Most were studied when they were more than 70 years old. The volunteers took one of several short training classes meant to help them keep their mental abilities. One class trained participants in skills including how to remember word lists. Another group trained in reasoning. A third group received help with speed-of-processing speed of receiving and understanding information. A fourth group the control group did not get any training.Earlier results had established that the training helped the participants for up to five years. Now, leading study writer George Rebok says, the research showed most of the training remained effective a full ten years later.Professor Rebok and his team found that the people trained in reasoning and speed-of- processing did better on tests than the control group. “We are wondering whether those effects which endured over time would still be there ten years following the training, and in fact, thats exactly what we found.,The effect on memory, however, seemed not to last as long. Still, the old people in any of the three classes generally reported less difficulty in performing daily activities than the control group. The total training time for the older people was between 10 and 15 hours.32. Which statement is false according to the text? A. This kind of training can only have effects on people for a few years. B. The people were trained during a period of ten years. C. Most of the people who were studied were more than 70 years old. D. The first group were trained how to remember word lists.33. How would the old in the second group perform after receiving the trauung?A. Remember more words.B. Understand information more quickly.C. Act as poorly as before.D. Perform daily activities better.34. What does the underlined word attest in the first paragraph mean7 A-Affect. B. Deny. C. Prove. D. Improve.35. Which of the following can be the best tide for the passage? A. Some Kinds of Mental Skills Naturally Decrease. B. Mental Training Helped Elderly Stay Sharp for Years. C. Four Groups of Old People Were Trained Mentally. D. A Ten-year Research Affects Elderly. 参考答案3235、ADCB【辽宁省葫芦岛市2014一模试题】DThe Hunan Satellite TV(HNTV) show “Where are we going, Dad?” is a big hit. Many famous stars brought their children to a strange village alone, and they had to spend 72 hours with their children there. The program fully showed us a modern version of the “how to be a good father”. As the young parents today are too busy to take care of their children, this new form of “Lost on the way” played by nanny Daddy and cute kids triggered（触发）a lot of peoples emotional resonance（共鸣）. Both the kids and their parents will find that their hearts are being drawn closer. But this kind of feeling has just proved that there is a big spiritual barrier between the modern parents and children. The TV shows like “Children are hard to support!”, “Where are we going, Dad?”, “hot mom” and “cute kids” are becoming more and more popular. All of these show the new parents confusion in childrens education and the appeal for the balance between career and family.In real life, on the one hand the young parents feel helpless because they are too busy to accompany their children under the pressures of work and life; on the other hand they continue to do so. The data collected by HNTV shows that nearly two-thirds of their audience are female, among whom 36% are aged from 25 to 34.We can imagine such a scene that one evening a young mother is watching the show with her young children, while her husband is still at work or trapped in socializing, or maybe is just playing computer games in the bedroom. The story of a child without the company of father is still going on. In fact, it is sometimes the same to mothers. In a modern family, it is often the old who take the responsibility of raising a child. The participation of mother in the childrens education is also very low.It is just this kind of confusion where the parents have gone in the modern family education, and where the parents will guide their children to go that “Where are we going，Dad?” shows us. If a child wants to grow up healthily and safely into a modern citizen with independent personality and free spirit, it is very important for him or her to follow the parents who serve as their first teacher. Maybe this is the real reason why such kind of TV programs could get hot. The truth is that children will go where their parents go; and society will go where the children go.32. In raising a child in modern society, parents should _. A. play computer games with their children B. keep their children at home to avoid socializing C. balance well between family and careerD. break down the barrier between children and teachers33. Which of the following can be inferred in the passage?A. Parents shouldnt entirely leave the education of children to the old.B. 36% of the audience of the program are female aged from 25-34. C. The program shows us the confusion where the parents and children will go to play.D. In a modern family it is often mothers who are responsible for raising a child.34. Which one is the best title of the passage? A. Confusion Behind “Where are we going, dad?” B. Modern Education is Important C. Nanny Daddy and Cute Kids D. New problems in Modern Childrens Education35. What attitude towards modern family education does the author express in the second paragraph? A. Proud. B. Worried. C. Optimistic. D. Indifferent. 【参考答案】3235 CAAB 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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。【宁夏银川市唐徕回民中学2014试题】A An 80-year-old man was sitting on the sofa in his house along with his 45-year-old highly educated son.
