For example, did you know that the lightning we see flashing down to the earth from a cloud is actually flashing up to a cloud from the earth? Our eyes trick us into thinking we see a downward motion when its actually the other way around. But then, if we believed only what we think and we see, wed still insist that the sun rises in the morning and sets at night.Most lightning flashes take place inside a cloud, and only a relative few can be seen jumping between two clouds or between earth and a cloud. But, with about 2,000 thunderstorms taking place above the earth every minute of the day and night, theres enough activity to produce about 100 lightning strikes on earth every second.Parents can use thunder and lightning to help their children learn more about the world around them. When children understand that the light of the lightning flashing reaches their eyes almost at the same moment, but the sound of the thunder takes about 5 seconds to travel just one mile, they can begin to time the interval (间隔) between the flash and the crash to learn how close they were to the actual spark (闪光).1. According to the author, in the area of the Central Valley_.A. rains usually come without thunder and lightning.B. it is usually dry in AprilC. children pay no attention to the two natural wonders.D. parents are not interested in thunder an lightning.2. We believe that lightning is a downward motion because_.A. we were taught so by our parents from our childhood.B. we are taken in by our sense of vision.C. it is a common natural sight.D. it is a truth proved by science.3. What is TRUE about lightning according to the passage?A. Only a small number of lightning flashes occur on earth.B. Lightning flashes usually jump from one cloud to another.C. Lightning travels 5 times faster than thunder.D. There are far more lightning strikes occurring on earth than we can imagine.4. The underlined word “activity” is most closely related to the word (s) _.A. cloudB. lightning strikes C. lightning flashesD. thunderstorms5. It can be concluded from the passage that _.A. we should not believe what we see or hear.B. things moving downward are more noticeable.C. people sometimes may have wrong ideas about ordinary phenomena.D. adults are not as good as children in observing certain natural phenomena.【参考答案】15、ABDDC【重庆市南开中学2020高考英语二诊考试】请阅读下列短文，从每篇短文后所给各题的A，B，C，D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。In December of l 992I was a happy husband and father of two young childrenA month later，I was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia(急性白血病)After two years of chemo(化疗)that helped control the disease，my body was weak and lifelessI felt as if I were a puppet who needed help to lift his arms or hold up his headI began to runAfter six months my strength had come backOn one of my runs，one where I felt I could run forever，I decided I was going to try to run a marathonAfter telling my Dad about my plan，he told me of a program that trains people to run a marathon，while raising funds for Leukemia research at the same timeSo that summer，through the Leukemia Societys Team in Training program，I started to train for the Marine Corps MarathonDuring mile after mile of uncertainty，the day finally came to run the marathonOn October 27，1996，at 8 AM，along with l9,000 other brave souls I started on a 26.2-mile journey that I will never forgetI first saw my wife Patty at the six-mile mark .
