A.By listing figuresB.By paring different opinionsC.By providing examplesD.By conducting a survey(4)What is the suitable title for the passage? A.The benefits of enough sleep for childrenB.Sleeping less increases the risk of obesityC.Which es first, little sleep or obesityD.How many hours of sleep do children need?【答案】(1)C(2)D(3)A(4)B 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文,一項(xiàng)新的研究發(fā)現(xiàn),睡眠過少的小學(xué)生更容易發(fā)胖。(1)考查句義猜測。劃線句表示的字面意思是“先有雞還是先有蛋”,結(jié)合上下文的內(nèi)容可知,文章引用這句話是為了表明“是睡眠少導(dǎo)致了肥胖還是肥胖導(dǎo)致了睡眠少”這個(gè)問題還沒有定論。第二段中的“In other words, it hasn39。t been clear whether kids who weigh too much have trouble sleeping, or whether sleeping less leads to weight gain. Both scenarios (可能出現(xiàn)的情況) seemed equally possible.”是解題的關(guān)鍵提示信息。故選C。(2)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第四段中的“The scientists found no relationship between weight and the students39。 race or gender.”可知,面試的結(jié)果是一個(gè)人的種族或性別與他的體重沒有任何關(guān)系。故選D。(3)考查寫作手法。本文介紹了一項(xiàng)研究,并列舉了很多同該研究相關(guān)的數(shù)據(jù)。故選A。(4)考查主旨大意。根據(jù)第一段中的“A new study has found that elementary school students who slept too little were more likely to gain pounds.”可知,本文主要介紹了一項(xiàng)新的研究發(fā)現(xiàn),睡眠少會增加肥胖的概率。故選B?!军c(diǎn)評】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解,句義猜測,寫作手法和主旨大意四個(gè)題型的考查,是一篇健康類閱讀,要求考生在捕捉細(xì)節(jié)信息的基礎(chǔ)上,進(jìn)一步根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系,進(jìn)行分析,推理,概括和歸納,從而選出正確答案。8.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 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, 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, 000meters 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 that would be used, if there should 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 l, 000 meters highC.has been used by the police and emergency rescue teamsD.can be transported quickly after being folded and packed(2)Peter Coker uses the example of Formula 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 Jetpack.D.the parachute(4)What is the author39。s 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)B 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文,很多人夢想可以像騎自行車一樣飛。然而會飛的自行車安全性是一個(gè)問題。文章介紹了英國公司開發(fā)的一種會飛的自行車,以及其特點(diǎn),比如有一些會飛的自行車帶有降落傘的裝置。(1)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第二段中的“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,因?yàn)樗梢哉郫B和包裝。D項(xiàng)說在折疊和包裝后可以快速運(yùn)輸,故選D。(2)考查推理判斷。根據(jù)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。我們在車的現(xiàn)行結(jié)構(gòu)中植入了安全性,非常類似于Formula One賽車。故選A。(3)考查詞義猜測。根據(jù)最后一段中的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。“在海拔非常低的情況下開始用它…”??芍?,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” 故選D。(4)考查主旨大意。根據(jù)第一段可知,許多人一直夢想能像騎自行車一樣簡單的飛來飛去,科技的發(fā)展讓這個(gè)夢想很快實(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。接著下面敘述了兩家研發(fā)飛行器的公司的最新的產(chǎn)品,新產(chǎn)品把安全放在首位。故選B?!军c(diǎn)評】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解,推理判斷和詞義猜測和主旨大意四個(gè)題型的考查,是一篇科普類閱讀,考生需要準(zhǔn)確掌握細(xì)節(jié)信息,同時(shí)根據(jù)上下文的進(jìn)行邏輯推理,概括歸納,從而選出正確答案。9.閱讀理解 Parents may think they39。re smart about where they store medicines, but their kids are smarter. Nearly 60,000 young children are rushed to the hospital every year after getting into medicines not meant for them, according to a new report from Safe Kids Worldwide. The report finds little connection between what parents know about storing medicines safely and what they actually do. Nine out of 10 parents know that medicines should be stored up and away out of reach and sight, but 7 out of 10 of them admit not doing that. They leave medicines out on kitchen counters, sinks and sofas, believing babies
