最新高二英語閱讀理解(科普環(huán)保)易錯剖析含解析一、高中英語閱讀理解科普環(huán)保類1.犇犇閱讀短文,從每題所給的四個選項(A、B、C和D)中,選出最佳選項。 A shark moving around the coastline is normally a worrying sight,but this waterborne drone (無人機) threatens floating rubbish instead of people. Developed by Dutch pany RanMarine, the WasteShark takes nature as its inspiration with its whale sharklike mouth. Responsible for collecting waste, the drone will begin operations in Dubai Marina in November after a year of trials with local partner Ecocoast. According to RanMarine, the WasteShark is available in both autonomous and remotecontrolled models. Measuring just over five feet by threeandahalf feet ( meters by meter), it can carry up to 352 pounds of rubbish ( kg) and has an operational battery life of 16 hours. By 2016 there were approximately 150 million tons of plastic in the world39。s oceans. One paper from December 2014 estimated that over a quarter of a million tons of ocean plastic pollution was afloat. WasteShark also has the abilities to gather air and water quality data, remove chemicals out of the water such as oil, and heavy metals, and scan the seabed to read its depth and outlines, said Oliver Cunningham, one of the cofounders of RanMarine. Fitted with a collisionavoidance system, the drone uses laser imaging detection and ranging technology to detect an object in its path and stop or back up if the object approaches. Our drones are designed to move through a water system, whether it39。s around the perimeter (周邊) or through the city itself. The drones are that last line of defense between the city and the open ocean, added Cunningham. WasteSharks are operating in Dubai, South Africa and the Netherlands and cost $ 17, 000 for the remotecontrolled model and just under $ 23, 000 for the autonomous model. Dubaibased operator Ecocoast has two WasteShark drones. Cofounder Dana Liparts says they will clean waterfronts for clients including hotels and environmental authorities and that Ecocoast39。 intention is to have the collected rubbish recycled or upcycled. However, Liparts argues that cleaning waterways doesn39。t have a onesizefitsall solution and requires a bination of new technology, preventative measures and changing people39。s attitudes towards littering.(1)What do we know about the WasteShark? A.It can frighten sharks away.B.It is an ocean explorer.C.It is a rubbish collector.D.It can catch fish instead of people.(2)What does Paragraph 4 mainly tell us? A.The causes of ocean pollution.B.The dangers of using plastics.C.The severity of ocean garbage pollution.D.The importance of ocean protection.(3)What will the WasteShark do with an approaching object? A.Avoid crashing into it.B.Break it into pieces.C.Swallow it.D.Fly over it.(4)Which of the following ideas does Liparts agree with? A.The WasteShark should be used more widely.B.More measures should be taken to make water clean.C.The production cost of WasteSharks should be reduced.D.People should take a positive attitude to new technology.【答案】 (1)C(2)C(3)A(4)B 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文,介紹一種水上無人機可以用于清理浮在水面上的垃圾。 (1)考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第二段中的“Responsible for collecting waste, the drone will begin operations in Dubai Marina in November after a year of trials with local partner Ecocoast.”可知,這種無人機是用來清理垃圾的,故選C。 (2)考查段落大意。根據(jù)第四段中的“By 2016 there were approximately 150 million tons of plastic in the world39。s oceans. One paper from December 2014 estimated that over a quarter of a million tons of ocean plastic pollution was afloat.”可知,預(yù)計到2016年,估計約有25萬噸垃圾漂浮在海洋上,故可知,本段主要講述海洋垃圾的嚴重性,故選C。 (3)考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第五段中的Fitted with a collisionavoidance system, the drone uses laser imaging detection and ranging technology to detect an object in its path and stop or back up if the object approaches.可知,配備防碰撞系統(tǒng),無人機使用激光來探測物體,用測距技術(shù)來探測前方是否有物體,如果探測到物體,無人機就會停下來或者后退,故選A。 (4)考查推理判斷。根據(jù)最后一段中的“However, Liparts argues that cleaning waterways doesn39。t have a onesizefitsall solution and requires a bination of new technology, preventative measures and changing people39。s attitudes towards littering.”可知,這種無人機并非解決水上垃圾污染的萬全之策,需要多措并舉,才能達到目的,故選B。 【點評】本題考點涉及細節(jié)理解,推理判斷和段落大意三個題型的考查,是一篇科教類閱讀,考生需要準(zhǔn)確掌握細節(jié)信息,同時根據(jù)上下文進行邏輯推理,概括歸納,從而選出正確答案。2.犇犇閱讀理解 Kaitlin Woolley and Ayelet Fishbach report in Psychological Science that a meal taken familystyle from a central plate can greatly improve the oute of later negotiations. Having conducted previous research in 2017 revealing that eating similar foods led to people feeling emotionally closer to one another, Dr Woolley and Dr Fishbach wondered whether the way in which food was served also had a psychological effect. They theorized that, on the one hand, sharing food with other people might indicate food scarcity(短缺)and increase a feeling of petition. However, they also reasoned that it could instead lead people to bee more aware of others39。 needs and drive cooperative behavior as a result. Curious to find out, they did a series of experiments. For the first test they recruited 100 pairs of participants from a local cafe, none of whom knew each other. The participants were seated at a table and fed tortilla chips with salsa. Half the pairs were given their own basket of 20 grams of chips and a bowl of 25 grams of salsa, and half were given 40 grams of chips and 50 grams of salsa to share. As a cover for the experiment, all participants were told this snack was to be consumed before the game began. The game asked the participants to negotiate an hourly wage rate during a fictional strike. Each person was randomly assigned to represent the union or management and follow a set of rules. The researchers measured cooperation by noting the number of rounds it took to reach an agreement, and found that those who shared food resolved the strike significantly faster(in 8. 7rounds)than those who did not( rounds). A similar experiment was conducted with 104participants and Goldfish crackers(餅干), this time negotiating an airline39。s route prices. The results wer
