“閱讀理解＋七選五”組合練（二） Ⅰ.閱讀理解 A Trapped on the 37th Floor Melinda Skaar wasn’t expecting any phone calls.Skaar was working late in her office at the First Interstate bank of California.By 10：45 that night she was almost ready to go home when the phone rang. Picking it up，she heard a guard shouting.“There is a fire！Get out of there！” Skaar didn’t panic.She figured that it was just a small fire.Her office building was huge.There were 62 floors and her desk was on the 37th floor. Skaar called out to office mate Stephen Oksas.who also stayed late to work.But when they got to the hallway，they were met by a cloud of black smoke.Rushing back，Skaar shut the door and filled the space at the bottom of the door with her jacket to keep the smoke out. Then they called 911.Before they could call their families，however，the line went dead.That meant that they were completely cut off from the outside world.All they could do was wait and hope someone would come to rescue them. Minutes ticked by.Smoke began to float into the office.Soon it became hard for them to breathe. Looking around，Skaar noticed a small workroom.It seemed to have cleaner air.So they crowded there.That helped for a while，but in time even the workroom was filled with deadly smoke. Hopeless，they tried to break the windows，but the glass was not breakable.Everything they threw at just bounced back. Defeated，they struggled back to the workroom.They felt weak and dizzy.Soon Skaar found Oksas had passed out. As Skaar and Oksas lay near death，rescuers were rushing to find them.At last，at about 4 a．m.，firefighters found them. Skaar and Oksas knew they were lucky to be alive.“Sunday is my birthday，”Skaar told a reporter.She would be turning 29.But she knew she had already got the best present possible—the gift of life. 語(yǔ)篇解讀　本文是一篇記敘文。講述了Skaar被火災(zāi)困在了37樓，但她臨危不懼的表現(xiàn)讓她和同事最后獲救。 1．What did Skaar and Oksas do when they were stopped by the fire? A．They called their families. B．They waited where they were. C．They rushed back and shut the door. D．They tried to run down the stairs. 答案　C 解析　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段最后一句“Rushing back，Skaar shut the door and filled the space at the bottom of the door...”可知，選C項(xiàng)。 2．The first sentence of the passage is to . A．get the readers’ attention B．introduce Skaar and Oksas C．explain the cause of the event D．tell the background information 答案　A 解析　寫(xiě)作意圖題。根據(jù)文章第一句話“Melinda Skaar wasn’t expecting any phone calls.”及下文的內(nèi)容可知，第一句話的作用是引起讀者的注意，故選A項(xiàng)。 3．The following helped Skaar and Oksas survive the fire EXCEPT . A．calling 911 for help B．breaking the windows to get some fresh air C．crowding in a small workroom for clean air D．shutting the door and keeping the smoke out with a jacket 答案　B 解析　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第四段第一句“Hopeless，they tried to break the windows，but the glass was not breakable.”可知，選B項(xiàng)。 4．What can we conclude from Skaar’s action in the fire? A．She is cleverer than Oksas. B．She was trained as a firefighter. C．She remained calm in the face of danger. D．She had had the experience of being caught in fire. 答案　C 解析　推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章對(duì)Skaar在火災(zāi)中的表現(xiàn)，可知她臨危不懼，故選C項(xiàng)。 B Our quarrel with efficiency is not that it gets things done，but that it is a thief of time when it leaves us no leisure to enjoy ourselves，and that it strains our nerves when we try to get things done perfectly.In building bridges，American engineers calculate so finely and exactly as to make the two ends come together within onetenth of an inch.But when two Chinese begin to dig a tunnel from both sides of a mountain both come out on the other side.—The Chinese’s firm belief is that it doesn’t matter so long as a tunnel is dug through，and if we have two instead of one，why，we have a double track to boot. The pace of modern industrial life forbids this kind of glorious and magnificent idling.But，worse than that，it imposes upon us a different conception of time as measured by the clock and eventually turns the human being into a clock himself.(This sort of thing is bound to come to China，as is evident，for instance，in the case of a factory of twenty thousand workers.The luxurious prospect of twenty thousand workers coming in at their own sweet pleasure at all hours is，of course，somewhat terrifying.)Nevertheless，such efficiency is what makes life so hard and full of excitement.A man who has to be punctually at a certain place at five o’clock has the whole afternoon from one to five ruined for him already.Every American adult is arranging his time on the pattern of the schoolboy—three o’clock for this，five o’clock for that，sixthirty for change of dress，sixfifty for entering the taxi，and seven o’clock for arriving at the destination.It just makes life not worth living. 語(yǔ)篇解讀　本文是一篇議論文。主要講述了時(shí)間與效率的問(wèn)題。現(xiàn)代工業(yè)社會(huì)使我們的生活節(jié)奏變得緊促。 5．The writer objects to efficiency mainly on the grounds that it . A．entitles us to too much leisure time B．deprives us of leisure time C．urges us to get things done punctually D．imposes on us a perfect concept of time 答案　B 解析　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一句中的“...but that it is a thief of time when it leaves us no leisure to enjoy ourselves...”可知選項(xiàng)B正確。 6．In the eyes of the author，the introduction of industrial life gives rise to . A．more emphasis on efficiency B．magnificent idling of time C．the excitement of life D．terrifying schoolboy 答案　A 解析　推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段第一句“The pace of modern industrial life forbids this kind of glorious and magnificent idling.”及第二段倒數(shù)第四句“Nevertheless，such efficiency is what makes life so hard and full of excitement.”，可知選項(xiàng)A正確。 7．The passage tells us . A．Chinese workers come to work when it is convenient B．Americans ought not to work so hard for efficiency C．Chinese engineers are on better terms with the management D．a(chǎn)ll Americans are forced to be efficient against their will 答案　B 解析　推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章最后兩句“Every American adult is arranging his time on the pattern of the schoolboy—three o’clock for this，five o’clock for that，sixthirty for change of dress，sixfifty for entering the taxi，and seven o’clock for arriving at the destination.It just makes life not worth living.”可知選B。 8．What is implied but NOT stated by the author is that . A．every American is arranging his time in the pattern of a schoolboy B．every American is reluctant to be efficient C．every one should have some time to spend as he pleases D．being punctual is an undesirable habit which should not be formed 答案　C 解析　推理判斷題。A選項(xiàng)在最后一段中被直接提及，不符合implied的要求；B選項(xiàng)中reluctant意為“不愿”，而本文并非討論愿不愿意的問(wèn)題；D選項(xiàng)顯然不是作者本意；通讀全文知C選項(xiàng)符合題意。 Ⅱ.七選五 A Albert Einstein offered us more than just the amazing theory of relativity and E＝mc2.Through his persistence in his discoveries in science，Einstein shined a light on how each of us can do the impossible by working hard，experiencing failure，and valuing people. 9 ?Simplify Your Work “If you can’t explain it to a six years old，you don’t understand it yourself.”—Albert Einstein The more complicated you have to make something seem，the more you do not understand the inner workings of it. 10 Did they make even the most complicated topics full of vocabulary that you did not understand or did they make it easier to understand by simplifying? ?Live in the Present “I never think of the future—it comes soon enough.”—Albert Einstein 11 .You can try to get yourself worried about the future and make plans that may not work out according to plans.What matters most is living now，today.Do your best right now and do not worry about tomorrow. ?Work Towards the Impossible “Only those who attempt the absurd(荒謬的) can achieve the impossible.”—Albert Einstein If it seems ridiculous to others and you are willing to take the risk，then you are able to achieve the impossible. 12 You complete what was once an obstacle. ?Value People “Life isn’t worth living；unless it is lived for someone else.”—Albert Einstein If you put people first，they will value you and consider you a person who genuinely cares about others. 13 Show them that you value them.Thank them and send compliments their way.It will not only make their day better，but they will appreciate it and remember what you have done for them. A．Spend at least a few minutes out of your busy day talking with people without any distraction. B．Scientists in different fields are interested in the unique theory of relativity. C．When you go beyond what others think is reasonable，an amazing thing starts to happen. D．Think differently，and you may find your answer. E．Even if you are not a scientist，you can apply these life lessons to your own life. F．You are only guaranteed the moment that you have right now，at this moment. G．Think about the best teachers that you have had in your life. 語(yǔ)篇解讀　這是一篇說(shuō)明文。文章講述了愛(ài)因斯坦在理論上和精神上對(duì)我們所做的貢獻(xiàn)，我們可以把幾點(diǎn)具體的建議應(yīng)用于日常生活中。 9．答案　E 解析　本段講述了愛(ài)因斯坦在理論上和精神上對(duì)我們所做的貢獻(xiàn)；下文具體講了他的幾點(diǎn)理論和對(duì)我們的影響和作用。E項(xiàng)“即使你不是科學(xué)家也可以把這些思想應(yīng)用于我們的生活”承上啟下，故選E。 10．答案　G 解析　本段主要講使工作簡(jiǎn)單化。下句意思為：他們是編織滿(mǎn)是生僻難懂詞匯的主題，還是言簡(jiǎn)意賅地表達(dá)出來(lái)？根據(jù)常識(shí)這里講的應(yīng)該是老師，與G項(xiàng)中的the best teachers對(duì)應(yīng)。故選G。 11．答案　F 解析　本段講要活在當(dāng)下。F項(xiàng)“你只保證現(xiàn)在擁有的時(shí)刻”，與本段主題相符，故選F。 12．答案　C 解析　本段講去實(shí)現(xiàn)別人認(rèn)為不可能的事。C項(xiàng)“當(dāng)你超越了別人認(rèn)為可能的事，就會(huì)發(fā)生奇跡”，符合本段內(nèi)容，故選C。 13．答案　A 解析　本段講要重視別人。下句講要讓他們知道你重視他們，A項(xiàng)“從繁忙的生活中抽出至少幾分鐘集中精力和別人交談”，與下句銜接，故選A。 B No one really knows how and why people change as they get older. 14 Aging is a complex and varied process that varies in how it affects different people and organs.In fact，even in one person，different organ systems “age” at different rates. At a certain point in our lives our body systems will begin to weaken. 15 It may become more difficult for us to see and hear.The slow change of aging causes our bodies to lose some of their ability to bounce back from disease and injury.In order to live longer，we have always tried to slow or stop this change that leads us toward the end of our lives. 16 A good diet plays an important role.The amount and the type of exercise we get are another two factors. 17 But scientists studying the aging problem want to know：why do people grow old？They hope that by studying the aging medical science they may be able to make the length of life longer. 18 Many consider the later part of life to be the best time for living.Physical activity may become less，but often we get a better understanding of the world and ourselves. What we consider the old age now may only be middleaged some day soon.With so many advances in medical science happening so quickly，life length may one day be measured in centuries，rather than in years! A．Our living condition is yet another. B．Many factors decide our health. C．Our strength may become weaker. D．As for diet，people are advised to eat less salt and sugar. E．There is nothing to be afraid of as the old age comes. F．Symptoms include a lack of energy，slow reactions，insomnia(失眠) and poor memory. G．Also，no theory sufficiently explains all the changes of the aging process. 語(yǔ)篇解讀　沒(méi)有人真正知道人怎樣和為什么變老。飲食、鍛煉等是決定健康的因素。許多人認(rèn)為，人的后半生是人生的黃金時(shí)間，所以不要為衰老而恐懼。 14．答案　G 解析　根據(jù)空前一句“No one really knows how and why people change as they get older.”可知，選G項(xiàng)。G項(xiàng)中的“the changes of the aging process”與空前一句中的“change as they get older”對(duì)應(yīng)。 15．答案　C 解析　根據(jù)空處上一句中的“our body systems will begin to weaken”可知，隨著年齡變大，我們的身體將開(kāi)始衰弱；結(jié)合C項(xiàng)中的關(guān)鍵詞“become weaker”可以判斷，選C項(xiàng)。 16．答案　B 解析　根據(jù)空后的“A good diet plays an important role.The amount and the type of exercise we get are another two factors.”可知，本段主要介紹了決定健康的幾個(gè)因素，故選B項(xiàng)。 17．答案　A 解析　根據(jù)空前的“another two factors”可知，選A項(xiàng)，說(shuō)明另一個(gè)決定健康的因素。 18．答案　E 解析　根據(jù)空后的一句“Many consider the later part of life to be the best time for living.”可知，許多人認(rèn)為人的后半生是人生的最佳時(shí)間；據(jù)此可以判斷，變老并沒(méi)有什么可怕的，故E項(xiàng)正確。 8
