A.will be used only in specialized equipmentB. The technology is in its early stage, still accessible to countries that decide to invest brains and money. For 75 years it had remained little more than a scientific curiosity with limited practical use because the phenomenon occurred only at extremely low temperatures. It was first observed in 1911 by a Dutch scientist named Heike Kamerlingh Onnes, who cooled mercury (水銀) to temperatures below 269℃ with liquid helium (氦). Then in January last year, two IBM scientists, K. Alex Muller and J. George Bednorz, found a metal oxide ceramic (氧化陶瓷) that superconducted at 243℃. Their report went largely unnoticed until last December, when it was confirmed at a scientific meeting in Boston. Today Japan, India, China and other Asian countries all have their share of experts who spend their days and nights in labs, acting as midwives (助產(chǎn)士) to a new technology.(1)As is indicated in the passage, the technology of superconductivity ____________. A. A new technology is going to ripe, one that could transform our daily lives, help to form new industries, even remove world economic powers from their present positions. Unlike the wave of industrialization that began in the West and spread later to the rest of the world, the new developments are taking place in research labs all over the globe—and Asians are in the forefront. Physicists are creating a new class of materials that display an amazing property unforeseen even two years ago—superconductivity (超導(dǎo)體技術(shù)).(英語)高考英語閱讀理解專項訓(xùn)練及答案及解析一、高中英語閱讀理解1.閱讀下列短文,從短文后每題所給的A、B、C和D四個選項中,選出最佳選項。 Used today only in specialized equipment, super conductors have the potential to radically change most of the electrical and electronic appliances found in the home, making them smaller, more powerful and efficient. They could free our cities of pollution by replacing petrol and diesel (柴油) vehicles with electric cars, and cut the cost of electricity. The new materials do something that even the best of conductors such as copper and silver cannot—they do away with all electrical resistance. The significances for energy storage are great.has already been developedis still under developmentC.D.it began in the East and spread later to the rest of the worldit began in the West and spread later to the rest of the worldC.D.Asian scientists gain the lead in the growth of the new technologyDutch scientists kept reporting new findings for the last 75 yearsC. report receive immediate attention all over the worldthe West was astonished at the new technology developed by the Asians(4)Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A.Superconductivity: A New TechnologyC.D.(1)考查推理判斷。(2)考查細節(jié)理解。故選C。根據(jù)第一段中的“Unlike the wave of industrialization that began in the West and spread later to the rest of the world, the new developments are taking place in research labs all over the globe—and Asians are in the forefront.”與開始于西方,后來傳播到世界其他地區(qū)工業(yè)化的浪潮不同,全球各地的研究實驗室都在進行新的研究——亞洲人走在最前線;以及最后一段中的“Today Japan, India, China and other Asian countries all have their share of experts who spend their days and nights in labs, acting as midwives (助產(chǎn)士) to a new technology.”今天,日本,印度,中國和其它亞洲國家都有自己的專家,白天和晚上都在實驗室里,充當(dāng)一種新技術(shù)的助產(chǎn)士,故選A??v觀全文可知,第一段首先提出一項新技術(shù),第二段說明了這項技術(shù)的發(fā)展?jié)撃?,最后一段介紹這項新技術(shù)的發(fā)展?fàn)顩r,因此選B。2.Directions: Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. s past and future climate. Just beyond the northwest edge of the vast Greenland Ice Sheet, researchers have discovered lake mud that have survived the last ice age. The mud, and remains of mon flies in it, record two interglacial periods(間冰期)in northwest Greenland. This new information could help researchers better measure Greenland39。s ice sheet might respond to manmade global warming. After all, Greenland covers 80 per cent of the Arctic country and holds enough ice to equal 20 feet of global sea level. Northwest Greenland might feel really remote, but what happens to that ice sheet is going to matter to everyone in every coastal city around the world, said Yarrow Axford, an associate professor in the team. One of the big uncertainties in climate science is how fast the Earth changes when it gets warmer. Geology gives us an opportunity to see what happened when the Earth was warmer than today, said Axford.s Greenland looked during the last two interglacial periods. During the Last Interglacial, global sea levels i
