【正文】 （英語）高三英語閱讀理解模擬試題含解析一、高中英語閱讀理解1．閱讀理解 Imagine waking up one day and finding that your beautiful local beach is no more—gone, its fine white sand swept away by an abnormal storm. You go about your daily business for 12 long years and then suddenly the beach is back, all its glory restored by another storm. This is what happened on the island of Achill, off the coast of Ireland, where people are celebrating the return of the beautiful Ashleam Bay beach that was taken from them in 2005. That in itself is unusual enough, but the story gets even better! You see, another beach in Achill did a disappearing act once, but took much longer to return. The beach at Doonagh, located only six miles away from Ashleam Bay, was restored earlier in 2016 after waves created by spring storms had swept away all the sand in 1984, leaving just rock pools behind. There is local legend that stretches back hundreds of years that says this beach at Ashlcam Bay returns for a short every seven years then disappears again. But this time around it took a bit longer than that. It was last seen in 2005 and it stayed for a few months at that time before it was washed away again. As you can imagine, everyone on the island of Achill is thrilled to have their sandy beach back, and even though no one knows how long it39。s going to be around for, they are making the most of the time they39。ve got before it disappears again. Some may be quick to believe climate changes cause the phenomenon, but that39。s not the reason these two beaches in Achill keep disappearing, Dr Kevin Lynch, a geographer at NUT Galway, says that these occurrences are the result of hydrodynamics (流體力學) and sediment(沉積物) supply, rather than climate changes. Regardless of what39。s causing them, disappearing and reappearing beaches are just part of what makes nature so fascinating.（1）What is people39。s reaction to the return of the Ashleam Bay beach? A.Full of fear.B.Quite delighted.C.Very disappointed.D.Extremely con fused.（2）What can we learn about the beach at Doonagh? A.It is not located in Ireland.B.It disappeared 12 years ago.C.It once disappeared for more than 30 years.D.It is just made up of rocks and pools.（3）According to the local legend, when should the Ashleam Bay beach have e back? A.In 1982.B.In 2012.C.In 2016.D.In 2018.（4）What does Dr Kevin Lynch think of the phenomenon? A.Some abnormal storms lead to ocean39。s enlargement,B.It is hard to uncover the mystery of beach39。s disappearing.C.Climate changes can result in beaches disappearing pletely.D.Hydrodynamics and sediment supply cause two beaches to disappear.【答案】（1）B（2）C（3）B（4）D 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇新聞報道，愛爾蘭西北部的一個海灘不易而飛，但過一段時間它又回來了。傳言阿什拉姆灣的海灘每七年返回一次，然后又消失。有些人可能認為氣候變化會導致這種現(xiàn)象，但地理學家凱文林奇博士認為Achill這兩個海灘不斷消失的原因是流體力學和沉積物供應共同作用的結果。而不是氣候變化的原因。(1)考查推理判斷。根據第一段中的” off the coast of Ireland, where people are celebrating the return of the beautiful Ashleam Bay beach that was taken from them in 2005.”及第四段中的“As you can imagine, everyone on the island of Achill is thrilled to have their sandy beach back,”?？芍?，人們對于海灘的回歸是非常興奮的。故選B。(2)考查推理判斷。根據第二段中的“The beach at Doonagh, located only six miles away from Ashleam Bay, was restored earlier in 2016 after waves created by spring storms had swept away all the sand in 1984, leaving just rock pools behind,”可知，Doonagh海灘于1984年被春天的風暴席卷了所有的沙子只留下巖石池，在2016年初恢復了。由此可推斷出Doonagh在消失了32年后又恢復了。故選C。(3)考查推理判斷。根據第一段中的“the beautiful Ashleam Bay beach that was taken from them in 2005.”可知，Ashleam Bay是在2005年消失的。第三段中的“There is local legend that stretches back hundreds of years that says this beach at Ashlcam Bay returns for a short every seven years then disappears again.” 當地方傳說。說阿什卡姆灣的海灘每七年恢復一次，然后又消失。也就是2005+7=2012年回歸，故選B。(4)考查推理判斷。根據第五段中的“Dr Kevin Lynch, a geographer at NUT Galway, says that these occurrences are the result of hydrodynamics (流體力學) and sediment(沉積物) supply, rather than climate changes.”可知，這種現(xiàn)象是流體力學和沉積物供應共同作用的結果。故選D?！军c評】本題考點涉及推理判斷題型的考查，是一篇新聞報道，要求考生根據上下文的邏輯關系，進行分析，推理，選出正確答案。2．閱讀理解 Anxiety has now surpassed depression as the most mon mental health disease among college students, though depression, too, is on the rise. More than half of students visiting campus clinics cite anxiety as a health concern, according to a recent study of more than 100,000 students nationwide by the Center for Collegiate Mental Health at Penn State. Nearly one in six college students has been diagnosed with or treated for anxiety within the last 12 months, according to the annual national survey by the American College Health Association. The causes range widely, experts say, from mounting academic pressure at earlier ages to overprotective parents to engagement with social media. Anxiety has always played a role in the development of a student39。s life, but now more students experience anxiety so acute that they are seeking professional help. Like many college clinics, the Center for Counseling and Psychological Services at the University of Central Florida (UCF)— one of the country39。s largest and fastestgrowing universities, has seen sharp increases in the number of clients: percent over last year alone. Anxiety has bee characteristic of the current generation of college students, said Dan Jones, the director of Counseling and Psychological Services at Appalachian State University in Boone, N. C. Because of increasingly pressures during high school, he and other experts say, students arrive at college preloaded with stress. Accustomed to extreme parental oversight, many seem unable to govern themselves. And with parents so accessible, students have had less incentive to develop life skills. “They can39。t tolerate disfort or having to struggle,” Dr Jones said. More often, anxiety is mild and temporary, the indication of a student under the control of a normal developmental issuelearning time management, for example, or how to ha
