e significant than you might think(這些發(fā)現(xiàn)比你想象的更重要)可知,選D。( 4 )推理判斷題。3D電影是高科技產(chǎn)品,所以這篇文章最有可能出現(xiàn)在科學雜志上,故選C。4.閱讀理解 Who could have imagined that a treadmill(跑步機)on wheels would one day bee a thing? Lopifit is an unusual means of transportation that allows you to power an electric bicycle by walking on a treadmill. Lopifit founder Bruin Bergmeester says it all started when he asked himself the question. How can I use a treadmill outdoors? He eventually came up with a design, to which he added an electric engine, and Lopifit was born. The treadmill bicycle is similar to a typical electric bicycle in that the motor only works when the rider puts power in as well. The Lopifit senses it when you walk on the treadmill and uses the motor to turn a drive chain at the back part of the treadmill, helping you reach a top speed of 17 miles per hour. To use the Lopifit, simply turn on the battery and use your feet to slide the treadmill backwards and activate (激活) the motor. Then get on and enjoy the ride! If you need speed, just walk on the treadmill, and if you want to coast, all you have to do is stay still and admire the view. To stop, you have two hand brakes available. The Lopifit first hit the streets in 2014 and, unsurprisingly, became an instant hit. That was actually quite challenging for the pany, because it started get inquiries and calls for orders, but it was nowhere near ready for mass production. The unique treadmill bicycle became available this year, and Lopifit is struggling to keep up with demand, despite the high price tag of $ 2,115. But despite having a very loyal fanbase of socalled Lopifitters, the creative means of transportation also has naysayers who simply consider the invention stupid and unnecessary. They basically believe that if you39。re going to walk, you might as well do it the oldfashioned way. But the Lopifit does have the unique advantage of helping you walk really fast without breaking a sweat, or walking at cycling speed, if you will.(1)With the help of Lopifit, you can ________. A.cycle to work by walkingB.offer power to any bicycleC.create a treadmill on wheelsD.answer some hard questions(2)From the second paragraph, we can learn ________. A.how Lopifit was createdB.where Lopifit can be usedC.who Lopifit is intended forD.which design is suitable for Lopifit(3)What can be learned from the fourth paragraph? A.Lopifit was cheap and available in 2014.B.Lopifit always broke down on the streets.C.It was hard for the pany to design Lopifit.D.The supply of Lopifit failed to meet the demand.(4)How do the public react to Lopifit? A.Positively.B.Variously.C.Angrily.D.Cautiously.【答案】 (1)A(2)A(3)D(4)B 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文。本文主要介紹了Bruin從跑步機上獲得靈感,發(fā)明了一款 “走路自行車”,在這款自行車上不需要跑步,走路就行的自行車——Lopifit。Lopifit非常受歡迎,供不應(yīng)求。(1)細節(jié)理解題。由第一段Lopifit is an unusual means of transportation that allows you to power an electric bicycle by walking on a ,在Lopifit的幫助下,你可以走路去工作,選A。(2)推理判斷題。由第二段Lopifit founder Bruin Bergmeester says it all started when he asked himself the question可知,這一段主要講了“走路自行車”是如何被發(fā)明的,選A。(3)推理判斷題。由第四段The unique treadmill bicycle became available this year, and Lopifit is struggling to keep up with demand, despite the high price tag of $ 2,,從第四段,我們可以推斷出這款自行車供不應(yīng)求,選D。(4)推理判斷題。由最后一段But despite having a very loyal fan base of socalled Lopifitters, the creative means of transportation also has naysayers who simply consider the invention stupid and unnecessary. 可知,這款自行車有許多忠實的粉絲,但是也有許多搖頭黨,所以可以推斷出人們對于這款自行車持各種各樣的態(tài)度,選B?!军c評】細節(jié)理解題:考查內(nèi)容主要涉及時間、地點、人物、事件、原因、結(jié)果、數(shù)字等議論文中例證細節(jié)和定義類細節(jié)。這類題目的共同特點是:答案一般都能在文章中找到。當然,答案并不一定是文章中的原句,考生需要根據(jù)文章提供的信息自己組織語句回答問題?!鷮ぷx法分為直接理解題和間接理解題,前者常用who, what, which, when, where, why和how提問,或判斷正誤;后者需與原文信息轉(zhuǎn)換,表達上與原文有差異。2. 排列順序題→首尾定位法(找出第一個事件和最后一個事件,用排除法縮小范圍)常出現(xiàn)在記敘文和說明文中,一般按事件發(fā)生的順序。3. 圖文匹配題→按圖索驥理清線索:設(shè)題形式:給出圖表,根據(jù)圖表提問問題。4. 數(shù)字計算題→(方法:審題→帶著問題找細節(jié)→對比、分析、計算)可直接找到相關(guān)細節(jié),但需經(jīng)過計算方可找到答案。5.閱讀理解 It took me a moment to realize what had happened. Three days had passed and Rita seemed to get weaker and weaker. The rain had stopped. However, the sky was still cloudy, and it was so dark that I couldn39。t see the buildings even across the road. I took a pressure reading from the weather station: 947mb, which let me know exactly where I was—in the eye of the storm. There were rains and winds still, but not oppressive (難以忍受的)anymore. There was still no power, hot water or food. Besides, I didn39。t sleep well for all these days, but I felt more relaxed since the weather report said Rita was leaving. What39。s more, I was luckier than those people who had lost their homes or even worse, lost their lives because of Rita. As I travelled further to the west, going after the storm, the damage along the way became less severe. I arrived in Houston after a tricky journey with my fuel supplies almost all gone. However, I came across another storm chaser (追逐者) who had 45 gallons of petrol. He helped me and we shared our working experience these days. With a plete stroke of luck I found a rundown hotel that allowed me to have a room overnight before the midnight. Although there was no running water, no power and no air conditioning, I curled up into a corner and fell asleep quickly. I woke up the next morning, and what a change! The sky was blue and cars were moving around. Sirens could be heard as convoys (護航隊) of emergency managements started to head west towards where I had e from. The storm had stopped and I could go home. I gave all my remaining supplies to other people at the hotel and headed towards the airport. Houston Airport was not damaged, so I took my flight and drank my first hot drink in four days. All in all, when I came back home, I was proud that I finally made it again to follow and record the storm and I really learned a lot these days. Although it39。s dangerous, I love my job as n
