2017高考英语阅读理解专项训练及答案解析

　高考英语单项选择题取消了，阅读理解题却还是屹立不倒。为了帮助大家复习，我整理了一些高考英语阅读理解，希望能帮到大家!

?

　好的作品

　Like fine food, good writing is something we approach with pleasure and enjoy from the first taste to the last. And good writers, like good cooks, do not suddenly appear full-blown. Quite the opposite, just as the cook has to undergo a particular training, mastering the skills of his trade, the writer must sit at his desk and devote long hours to achieving a style in his writing, whatever its purpose is?schoolwork, matters of business, or purely social communication.

　You may be sure that the more painstaking the effort, the more effective the writing, and the more rewarding.

　There are still some faraway places in the world where you might find a public scribe to do your business or social writing for you, for money. There are a few managers who are lucky enough to have the service of that rare kind of secretary who can take care of all sorts of letter writing with no more than a quick note to work from. But for most of us, if there is any writing to be done, we have to do it ourselves.

　We have to write school papers, business papers or home papers. We are constantly called on to put words to papers. It would be difficult to count the number of such words, messages, letters, and reports put into mails or delivered by hand, but the daily figures must be extremely large. What is more, everyone who writes expects, or at least hopes whatever he writes will be read, from first word to last, not just thrown into some ?letters-to-be-read? files or into a wastepaper basket. This is the reason we bend our efforts toward learning and practicing the skills of interesting, effective writing.

　1. In this passage, good writing is compared to fine food because _______.

　A. both are enjoyable B. both are hard to learn

　C. both are necessary to life D. both take a long time to prepare

　2. according to the passage, which of the following statements is true?

　A. Writing skills are less important than experience.

　B. A good writer should have his own way of writing.

　C. A good writer should learn to write all kinds of articles.

　D. The more efforts one makes, the more money one can earn.

　3. The author thinks that the most important reason for us to practice writing skills is _______.

　A. to earn our living B. to attract others to read

　C. to do daily reports easily D. to become good secretaries

　4. The purpose of the author in writing this passage is to _______.

　A. comment and blame B. introduce and describe

　C. explain and persuade D. interest and inform

　答案与解析本文阐述要使文章有可读性，必须下苦功夫学习和训练写作技巧。

　1. A。推断题。根据文章第一句Like fine food, good writing is something we approach with pleasure and enjoy from the first taste to the last 可推出好的作品和好的食物有共同点：令人愉快的，可享受的。故可推出答案为A。

　2. B。判断题。根据第1段the writer must sit at his desk and devote long hours to achieving a style in his writing可推出答案为B。?一个好作家应该有自己的写作风格。?

　3. B。推断题。根据最后一段What is more, everyone who writes expects, or at least hopes whatever he writes will be read, from first word to last?可推知吸引别人从头到尾把作品读下去是练习写作技巧的最重要的原因，因此答案为B。

　4. C推断题。根据最后一段最后一句This is the reason we bend our efforts toward learning and practicing the skills of interesting, effective writing可推断答案为C。

　致父信

　Wentworth Girls? school

　Beachside

　July 20th

　Dearest Mom and Dad,

　I? m afraid I have some very bad news for you. I have been very naughty and the school principal is very angry with me. She is going to write to you. You must come and take me away from here. She does not want me in the school any longer.

　The trouble started last night when I was smoking in bed. This is against the rules, of course. We are not supposed to smoke at all.

　As I was smoking, I heard footsteps coming towards the room. I did not want a teacher to catch me smoking, so I threw the cigarette away.

　Unfortunately, the cigarette fell into the waste-paper bas?ket, which caught fire.

　There was a curtain near the waste-paper basket which caught fire, too. Soon the whole room was burning.

　The principal phoned for the fire department. The ?school is a long way from the town and by the time the fire depart?ment arrived, the whole school was in flames. Many of the girls are in the hospital.

　3. D 细节题。根据信后的.附言None of the above is true可知。

　4. B 细节题。在信的正文根本没有涉及有关考试之事，排除A;根据信的最后两段，校长并没有责备她未及时打电话，排除C;信的第三段so I threw the cigarette away说明她没有被抓着在吸烟，排除D。

　自然灾害

　Parts of Africa are covered by a dark cloud. But this is no rain cloud. It is a living cloud made of billions of locusts (蝗虫) that are traveling across the continent eating everything in their path.

　And now in the battle to stop this disaster, a radio station in Senegal, West Africa, is offering listeners 50 kilograms of rice if they can catch and kill 50 kilograms of locusts. ?We think this idea will get more people to take part in the war on the locusts,? said Abdoulaye Ba, from Sud-Fm, a radio station in one of Senegal?s worst affected area.

　This is West Africa?s biggest locust disaster in 15 years, and it is moving east, causing huge damage to crops. As they move they produce young and increase their number and will soon threaten (威胁) Sudan in the northeast of Africa. Some say it could reach Asia.

　Experts say the harmful effect on crops in areas already suf?fering from food shortage and war could cause many people to go hungry. Governments in the areas are not well equipped to fight the pest.

　Although leaders of 12 countries have agreed on a plan, it is not expected to be enough. ?We are now treating 6,000 hectares (公顷) per day with pesticide (杀虫剂), but we need to treat 20,000 hectares per day in order to have any hope of controlling this disaster,? said Mohamed Abdallahi Ould Babah, director of locust control in Mauritania.

　Requests are being made for international aid, which is the only way to limit the disaster, the UN?s Food and Agricul?ture Organization warned.

　1. By using ?dark cloud? to describe locusts in the first para?graph, the author of the article ________.

　A. showed the size and speed of the mass of locusts

　B. suggested the great damage that locusts can cause

　C. warned that locusts would sweep the continent like rain clouds

　D. both A and B

　2. The story is mainly about ________.

　A. West Africa?s united effort in fighting a disaster

　B. the difficulty in controlling locusts

　C. how locusts caused great damage to West Africa

　D. a struggle to fight against a disaster brought by locusts in West Africa

　3. The locust disaster ________.

　A. would be even more serious in Asia

　B. is(was)out of control

　C. affected only the warning areas

　D. can not be stopped unless twice as much pesticide is provided for the affected areas

　4. Which of the following is WRONG?

　A. Sud-Fm offered a reward for fighting locusts so that more people would join in the effort.

　B. Senegal is to the southwest of Sudan.

　C. The locusts can cause such damage mainly because it has no natural enemy in West Africa.

　D. 12 countries affected by locusts have united but still lack pesticide.

　答案与解析：本文主要叙述了在非洲所发生的一次蝗灾害。

　1. D 细节题。由第一段中的traveling across the continent eating everything in their path可知作者想表明蝗灾发生的规模和所造成的灾害。

　2. D 主旨题。由每段首句和末段可知。

　3. B 推论题。根据第三段和第四段的意思可推知。

　4. C 细节题。文章中没有被提到C项内容，所以错了。由文第二段可知A对;由?于蝗灾发生在West Africa，然后向northwest of Africa发展，而Sudan正在这一个方向，所以B对;由第五段可知D也对。
