(英語)英語閱讀理解練習(xí)題20篇及解析一、高中英語閱讀理解1.閱讀理解 Many people have long dreamed of being able to fly around as simply as riding a bicycle. Yet the safety and strength of a flying bike was always a big problem. Over the past 10 years, developments in technology have moved the dream of personal flying vehicles closer to reality. Now, two groups of inventors say such vehicles may be available soon. The British pany Malloy Aeronautics has developed a prototype (原型) of its flying bicycle. Grant Stapleton, marketing sales director of Malloy Aeronautics, says the Hoverbike is able to get in and out of small spaces very quickly. It can be moved across continents very quickly because it can be folded and packed, he adds. Mr. Stapleton says safety was the pany39。s main concern. He says the designers solved the safety issue by using overlapping rotors ( 交疊式旋翼 )to power the vehicle. The pany is testing a fullsize prototype of the Hoverbike, which will most likely be used first by the police and emergency rescue teams. In New Zealand, the Martin Aircraft Company is also testing a fullsize prototype of its personal flying device, called the Jetpack. It can fly for more than 30 minutes, up to 1,000 meters high and reach a speed of 74 kilometers per hour. Peter Coker is the CEO of Martin Aircraft Company. He said the Jetpack “is built around safety from the start. In his words, reliability is the most important element of it. We have safety built into the actual structure itself, very similar to a Formula One racing car.” The Jetpack uses a gasolinepowered engine that produces two powerful jet streams. Mr. Coker says it also has a parachute (降落傘) that can be used should there be an emergency. “It starts to work at very low altitude and actually saves both the aircraft and the pilot,” he adds. Mr. Coker says the Jetpack will be ready for sale soon.(1)We can learn from the passage that the Hoverbike . A.can hardly get in and out of small spaces quicklyB.can fly for over 30 minutes, up to 1,000 meters highC.has been used by the police and emergency rescue teamsD.can be transported quickly after being folded and packed(2)The writer uses the example of For One racing car to show that . A.the Jetpack is very safe and reliableB.the engine of the Jetpack is powerfulC.the actual structure of the Jetpack is uniqueD.the Jetpack can reach a great speed and height(3)The underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refers to. A.the jet streamB.the engineC.the JetpackD.the parachute(4)What is the authors main purpose of writing the passage? A.To describe the problems of inventing flying vehicles.B.To introduce the latest development of flying vehicles.C.To show the differences between two flying vehicles.D.To advertise the two personal flying vehicles.【答案】(1)D(2)A(3)D(4)A 【解析】【分析】本文為說明文,主要講述一種個(gè)人飛行工具很快就會(huì)應(yīng)用于現(xiàn)實(shí)。然而安全性和強(qiáng)度一直是個(gè)大問題。文中介紹了兩家飛器公司都關(guān)注安全性問題。(1)細(xì)節(jié)理解題。第五段最后一句可知,the ,高達(dá)1000米,而不是Hoverbike,故B錯(cuò)誤, 根據(jù)第四段可知C項(xiàng)說有將可能首先應(yīng)用于由警察和應(yīng)急救援隊(duì),而不是已用于,故C錯(cuò)誤。根據(jù)第二段最后the Hoverbike is able to get in and out of small spaces very quickly. It can be moved across continents very quickly because it can be folded and packed, 可知,Hoverbike能夠很快地進(jìn)出小空間。它可快速地在大陸上移動(dòng),因?yàn)樗梢哉郫B和包裝。分析選項(xiàng)可知,A說不能快速進(jìn)入小空間,故錯(cuò)誤。D項(xiàng)說在折疊和包裝后可以快速運(yùn)輸。即D正確。故選D。(2)推理判斷題。第六段Peter Coker說Jetpack從一開始就圍繞安全進(jìn)行的。安全可靠性是最重要的因素。我們?cè)谲嚨默F(xiàn)行結(jié)構(gòu)中植入了了安全性,非常類似于Formula One賽車。分析選可知A項(xiàng)(Jetpack安全可靠)符合題意,故答案選A。(3)猜測(cè)詞義題。根據(jù)最后一段Mr. Coker says it also has a parachute (降落傘) that can be used should there be an emergency. “It starts to work at very low altitude …., Coker先生說Jetpack上也有降落傘,可以在緊急情況下使用?!霸诤0畏浅5偷那闆r下開始用它…”。由此可知,Jetpack上的降落傘(它)是在海拔低時(shí)才用。由此可知it指的是parachute (降落傘) 故答案選D。(4)主旨大意題。根據(jù)第一段可知,許多人一直夢(mèng)想能像騎自行車一樣飛來飛去,科技的發(fā)展讓這個(gè)夢(mèng)想很快實(shí)現(xiàn)。然而飛行自行車的安全性和強(qiáng)度一直是個(gè)大問題。接著下面敘述了這種飛行器的問題最重要的是安全問題。分析選項(xiàng),可知A項(xiàng)描述發(fā)明飛行器的問題,符合題意,故答案選A?!军c(diǎn)評(píng)】閱讀理解細(xì)節(jié)題解題技巧:1)語義轉(zhuǎn)換題跳讀查找法:根據(jù)題干內(nèi)容從原文中找到相關(guān)的句子,然后進(jìn)行比較和分析,便可確定最佳答案。2)生活應(yīng)用題常識(shí)理解法:在讀懂文章的基礎(chǔ)上結(jié)合一定的生活常識(shí)進(jìn)行判斷。3)細(xì)節(jié)排序題首尾定位法:根據(jù)動(dòng)作發(fā)生的先后順序和句子之間的邏輯關(guān)系,找出事件發(fā)生的正確順序。4)尋找信息題題干定位法:尋找信息題一般為功能閱讀題,主要形式有廣告、公告、演出信息、航班時(shí)間表等。2.閱讀理解 Plastic sludge(污泥)and garbage is a disaster for the world39。s oceans. A film crew traveled the globe to document the rubbish. And Julie Andersen of the Plastic Oceans Foundation says what we see is just the tip of the problem. “Half of the waste actually sinks to the bottom, and that remains on the surface actually breaks down. ” The filmmakers found rubbish in ocean gyres, the circulating currents that trap large concentrations of pollution in the Atlantic, Indian, and Pacifc Oceans, home of what some have plastic. What we found was a plastic smog that spread throughout all the water. And in some parts of the oceans, scientists have found more plastic than plant. ” The pieces of the plastic garbage infect the food chain, sometimes visibly, and more so at the microscopic level, where the plastic particles interact with other pollutants. “There are heavy metals, medicines, industrial waste in the sea, while it acts like magnets(磁鐵). These poisonous substances absorb on the plastic, and then when seafood absorbs the plastics, those poisonous substances enter the fatty tissues. ”To be consumed by other sea life and by people at last. China, Indonesia, the Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam are the worst plastic polluters. The United States, although a leader in recycling, is one of the world39。s 20 since it produces and consumes so much plastic. There are efforts around the world to address the problem, including at this newly opened recycling center in Lebanon(黎巴嫩). But Andersen says there is more that people can do. “Cut back on singleuse plastics, straws, plastic cups, plastic water bottles, plastic bags and find alternatives like reusable materials.” She says healthy oceans are essential to our survival.(1)What can we learn from the passage? A.There39。s all island full of plastic rubbish in the Pacific.B.The bad effect of plastic pollution can39。t be seen by eyes.C.The United States is the least plastic polluters.D.The plastic pollution to oce
