　　英语阅读模拟练习题及答案解析 1

　　A breakthrough (突破) in the provision of energy from the sun for the European Economic Community (EEC) could be brought froward by up to two decades, if a modest increase could be provided in the EEC’s researcheffort in this field, according to the senior EEC scientists engaged in experiments in solar energy at EEC’s scientific laboratories at Ispra, near Milan.

　　The senior West German scientist in charge of the Community’s solar energy programme, Mr. Joachim Gretz, told journalists that at present levels of research spending it was most unlikely that solar energy would provide as much as three per cent of the Community’s energy requirements even after the year 2000. But hesaid that with a modest increase in the present sums, devoted by the EEC to this work it was possible thatthe breakthrough could be achieved by the end of the next decade.

　　Mr. Gretz calculates that if solar energy only provided three per cent of the EEC’s needs, this could still produce a saving of about a billion pounds in the present bill for imported energy each year. And he believes that with the possibility of utilizing more advanced technology in this field it might be possible to satisfy a much bigger share of the Community’s future energy needs.

　　At present the EEC spends about $2.6 millions a year on solar research at Ispra, one of the EEC’s official joint research centres, and another $3 millions a year in indirect research with universities and other independent bodies.

　　练习题：

　　Choose correct answers to the question:

　　1. The phrase "be brought forward" (Line 2, Para. 1) most probably means "______".

　　A. be expected

　　B. be completed

　　C. be advanced

　　D. be introduced

　　2. Some scientists believe that a breakthrough in the use of solar energy depends on ______.

　　A. sufficient funding

　　B. further experiments

　　C. advanced technology

　　D. well-equipped laboratories

　　3. According to Mr. Gretz, the present sum of money will enable the scientists to provide _____.

　　A. more than 3% of the EEC’s needs after the year 2000

　　B. only 3% of the EEC’s needs before the year 2000

　　C. less than 3% of the EEC’s needs before the year 2000

　　D. 3% of the EEC’s needs after the year 2000

　　4. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage ?

　　A. The EEC spends one billion pounds on imported energy each year.

　　B. At the present level of research spending, it is difficult to make any significant progress in the provision of energy from the sun.

　　C. The desired breakthrough could be obtained by the end of the next decade if investment were increased.

　　D. The total yearly spending of the EEC on solar energy research amounted to almost 6 million.

　　5. The application of advanced technology to research in solar energy ______.

　　A. would lead to a big increase in research funding

　　B. would make it unnecessary to import oil

　　C. would make it possible to meet the future energy needs of the EEC

　　D. would provide a much greater proportion of the Community’s future energy needs

　　参考答案

　　1.[C] 本题可以采用排除法。A项“期望(突破)”不合逻辑;B项complete不能跟breakthrough搭配;D项“引出(突破)”句义不通。故只能选C。

　　2. [A] 由文章第1、2段可知，只要稍微增加科研经费，在利用太阳能方面可能再过10年便可获得突破，故A正确。B、 D两项并未在文中提及;第3段提到，如果采用先进的技术,可能在未来能满足欧共体更大的能源需求，但这并非获得突破的条件，故排除C。

　　3. [C] 第2段首句提到，如果科研经费保持目前的水平，即使到2000年太阳能也不可能供应欧共体所需能源的3%，C与之相符。

　　4.[A] 根据第3段第1句可知，10亿英镑是在太阳能提供给EEC所需能源的.3%这一前提下，每年可在能源进口省下来的钱，故A表述错误。本题也可以采用排除法：B、C两项的内容出现在了第2段;D出现在第4段中，均可排除。

　　5. [D] 根据第3段第2句可知，利用先进的技术能更大地满足欧共体未来的能源需求，故选D。

　　英语阅读模拟练习题及答案解析 3

　　I have been teaching the tenthgrade English for four years.Needless to say, I love my subject and promise to one day pass my love of literature on to my future students.Well, I must admit, I have made more than a difference.I have changed the way students perceive (感知) literature and have even inspired some to become English teachers. One student in particular is named John.I met him last year when he was a student in my English class.He sat in the back often, saying very little.However, I sensed that he was taking in all that I taught.John was never absent nor was he late.He seemed very mature for his age. As the year progressed, we read lots of poetry and various stories

　　about different cultures and reallife experiences.I have always wanted literature to speak to my students so that they could find related connections which would finally give them that motivation(动力) to read, write and interpret.While reading and writing poetry, John wrote some beautiful poetry that spoke of his experiences in America. On the last day of school, students were asked to write a brief autobiographical essay and to dedicate (献给) it to someone he or she thought was significant in his or her life.John dedicated his essay to me and used clip art that decorated the dedication with roses. He stated in the essay that “Some people you meet in life are flowers, but then there are those who are roses.Ms Hopkins, I just want you to know that you are a rose in my life and I have enjoyed every minute of being in your class.You have shown me that I have a purpose in life and that I am a poet.I will never forget you.” Tears streamed down my eyes.I had had a particularly hard personal life that year but somehow that letter made it worth the struggle. Making a significant contribution to someones life is something money could never buy.Teaching allows teachers to make a positive difference in the life of students.

　　1.Whats the authors purpose to take John for example? A.To show that her students were all excellent readers. B.To develop her own idea about English literature. C.To prove she kept what she promised.

　　2.How did the author keep her students motivated?

　　A.By making connections with them.

　　B.By reading them literature.

　　C.By writing poetry and stories.

　　D.By sharing reallife experiences.

　　答案：B

　　B.He wanted to say to her that she was a rose.

　　C.He expected her to know he had enjoyed her class.

　　D.He remembered she had promised to let him be a poet.

　　解析：考查推理判断。根据第四段中的“dedicate(献给)it to someone he or she thought was significant in his or her life”和第五段中的`“Ms Hopkins，I just want you to know that...I will never forget you”可知，John选择把他的自传性文章献给作者是因为他认为作者在他的生活中很重要。故选A。

　　4.Which of the following can be the best title for this text? A.The difference a good teacher can make

　　B.The friendship Ms Hopkins and John developed

　　C.An experience in an English class

　　Powerful and mysterious, the wizard(巫师) has been an attractive figure in fantasy literature for as long as the type of literature has existed.Their pointed hats, mysterious ways, and great deeds are familiar to any reader of fantasy literature.They are our childhood heroes and nightmares(噩梦), and many of us grew up with stories full of their adventures.Within the fantasy text, these complex personalities can serve several important roles, taking the part of either the hero, or terrible villain (反面人物).Regardless of the actual role they play within a given story, wizards have several common elements and characteristics that are typical of them. Wizards, in fact, are able to control the world around them through superhuman or magical means.The worlds they live in vary greatly from novel to novel，but the important characteristics of the character type itself remain more or less the same.One of the great strengths of the wizard figure is that nearly any type of character can be one.Authors have created wizards out of men and women of all personalities, backgrounds, and abilities, but although almost any type of person or character in fantasy literature can be a wizard, those who are have several important characteristics in common. Wizards in fantasy literature are rarely static figures.They are almost always driven by some quest (追求) or desire that they use their power to achieve.This is one of the main differences between wizards in fantasy literature and those in the older fairy tales and knightly epics that came before fantasy literature.In folk and fairy tales, which are more focused on the adventures of knightly heroes，the wizards often serve as no more than a plotfurthering device, giving the hero a quest to pursue and equipping them for the trials they eventually face.But in fantasy literature, the wizards themselves can play the role of hero.

　　One summer evening I was sitting by the open window, reading a good science storybook.I was so interested in the story I was reading that I did not notice that it was getting dark.When I realised it was too dark for me to read easily, I put the book down and got up to turn on the light.Just then I heard someone crying，“Help! Help！” It seemed to come from the trees at the other end of the yard.I looked out but it was now too dark to see anything clearly.Almost immediately I heard the cry again.It sounded like a child. I decided that I should have a look in the yard，just in case someone was in trouble.I turned on the light and found for myself a flashlight and a stick in the room.I thought they might be useful.Armed with these, I went out into the yard.Once again I heard the cry and this time there was no doubt that it came from the trees at the far end of the yard.“Whos there？” I called out as I walked across the yard towards the trees.But there was no answer.With the help of my flashlight, I searched all over that end of the yard, including the branches of the trees.There was no sign of anybody or anything.I came to the conclusion that my imagination was playing tricks on me, probably because of the story I was reading about strange creatures on another planet. Feeling rather foolish about hunting around in my own backyard, I went back into the house and put the stick and the flashlight away.I had just sat down to read my book again when I was frightened by the cry of “Help! Help！” from right behind me.I dropped my book and jumped up.There, sitting on my book was a large green and red bird.It was my neighbours parrot (鹦鹉)!

　　Since I was 4，I have wanted to do everything and anything—from softball to soccer to basketball to flag football.All that changed in my sixth grade year when I tried out for Line Dance; I had finally found my passion(激情).I danced all my life，so I wasnt nervous for this tryout(选拔赛)nor was it a problem for me. But as an eighth grader，at the end of the year，I walked into tryouts for Lincoln Line Dance.I was scared to death walking into a big school.So many unfamiliar faces were staring at me as I walked into the gym.It was the most busy and emotional threeday tryout of my life.Our instructor put us through a hard workout. My freshman year showed me being on Line Dance isnt as easy as it looked，but I prevailed.Our season ends in late May and starts in midJuly with preBand Camp and Band Camp.Throughout that year，we participate in competitions,10 parades and every field show for football season.

　　But all this work is worth it when we step on football field for the first football game，and see everyone in the stands.We forget how nervous we are.Seeing the little girls in the stands with their eyes glued to you，as you dance，saying they want to be just like you，makes everything worthwhile. When we have a bad performance，which sometimes we do，there are plenty of upset faces.We put our blood，sweat，and tears into dancing，and we love to hate it.Throughout the year，we 10 girls become like sisters.Like all sisters，we have our disagreements and quarrels.
