第二篇答案:ADACD
【高中英語閱讀理解】
Passage 1
答案:CDCDB
這里要講述Andrew Jackson 和Martin Van Buren這2屆美國總統的小故事。這2個小故事也許可以解釋美語中OK一詞的來歷。故事的真實性我們不得而知,不過內容卻很有意思。
第一個解釋來源於總統Andrew Jackson的故事。Andrew Jackson幾乎沒有受到過什麼教育,事實上,他對於日常的讀寫都有困難。當收到重要文件的時候,在嘗試閱讀之後,還是讓他的助手幫忙解釋文件的內容。如果批准一份文件,Andrew Jackson就在上面寫“all correct”。麻煩的是,他不知道怎麼這2個單詞怎麼拼寫,因此,實際上他在文件上寫的是“ol korekt”。過了不久,他又把這2個單詞縮寫為“OK”。
第二個解釋來源於總統Martin Van Buren的家鄉的名字——紐約的Kinderhook。為了幫助Van Buren成為總統,他的朋友為此組織了一個社團。他們把這個社團叫做Old Kinderhook Club,社團中支持Van Buren的人都被稱為“OK”
Passage 2
答案:CCABC
盡管美國幅員遼闊,而且土地所產出的糧食遠遠超過現有人口的需求,現今的美國卻幾乎完全是個都市化的國家。不足十分之一的人口在從事農業和林業,而剩餘的大多數人都居住在大大小小的城鎮中或者城鎮的周圍。傳統的'景象在這里不斷發生著變化:小的城鎮之間仍然彼此十分相似,典型的小城鎮還是呈現出大家心目中的鄉村的風貌;但是大部分的美國人卻不再住在小城鎮了。現在半數的人口都在大約30幾個大都市地區(包括附近郊區的大型城市)——這種大都市地區的人口都在百萬以上,總的都市人口數量遠遠超過德國和英國,更不用說法國了。城市和鄉村的人口統計需要特別對待,因為我們所謂的住在鄉村的人們,每天都會開車前往附近的城鎮工作。當遠離城鎮居住的熱潮持續的情況下,城鎮周圍的鄉村地區逐漸蓋滿了房屋。那麼說不定什麼時候,一塊鄉村的地區就變成了城市的郊區。不過,典型的美國人還是越來越趨向於居住在大都市而不是小城鎮的環境中。
;❷ 請教一段英語閱讀的意思。謝謝
那個計程車司機微笑著向那個傢伙揮了揮手。他是那麼友好。乘客問司機,「你為什麼要那樣做?那個傢伙會殺掉我們的!」就在我向他嚷的時候,他解釋說,「垃圾車法則?很多人就像是一部垃圾車。他們被圍繞在垃圾、挫折、憤懣和失望之中。當他們的垃圾車滿了的時候,就需要找個地方把這些垃圾卸下來。如果你允許的話,他們甚至會把垃圾倒在你身上。所以呢,當有人向你倒垃圾時,不要往心裡去。只需要微笑,揮手,祝福,然後繼續前行...」
❸ 以the motorcar will undoubtedly change significantly over the next 30 years開頭的英語閱讀理解
是這篇吧?還有解析哦,望lz採納!
Some pessimistic experts feel that the automobile is bound to fall into disuse. They see a day in the not-too-distant future when all autos will be abandoned. Other authorities, however, think the auto is here to stay. They hold that the car will remain a leading means of urban travel in the eable future.
The motorcar will undoubtedly change significantly over the next 30 years. It should become smaller, safer, and more economical, and should not be powered by the gasoline engine. The car of the future should be far more pollution-free than present types.
Regardless of its power source, the auto in the future will still be the main problem in urban traffic congestion(擁擠). One proposed solution to this problem is the automated highway system.
When the auto enters the highway system, retractable(可伸縮的)arm will drop from the auto and make contact with a rail, which is similar to those powering subway trains electrically. Once attached to the rail, the car will become electrically powered from the system, and control of the vehicle will pass to a central computer. The computer will then monitor all of the car's movements.
The driver will use a telephone to dial instructions about his destination into the system. The computer will calculate the best route, and reserve space for the car all the way to the correct exit from the highway. The driver will then be free to relax and wait for the buzzer(蜂鳴器)that will warn him of his coming exit. It is estimated that an automated highway will be able to handle 10,000 vehicles per hour, compared with the 1,500 to 2,000 vehicles that can be carried by a present-day highway. (285 words)
21. One significant improvement in the future car will probably be ________.
A) its power source
B) its driving system
C) its monitoring system
D) its seating capacity(A)
22. What is the author』s main concern?
A) How to render automobiles pollution-free.
B) How to make smaller and safer automobiles.
C) How to solve the problem of traffic jams.
D) How to develop an automated subway system.(C)
23. What provides autos with electric power in an automated highway system?
A) A rail.
B) An engine.
C) A retractable arm.
D) A computer controller.(A)
24. In an automated highway system, all the driver needs to do is ________.
A) keep in the right lane
B) wait to arrive at his destination
C) keep in constant touch with the computer center
D) inform the system of his destination by phone(D)
25. What is the author』s attitude toward the future of autos?
A) Enthusiastic.
B) Pessimistic.
C) Optimistic.
D) Cautious.(C)
這篇材料講的是未來汽車的問題。第一段先是舉出了兩種截然相反的觀點:「在不久的未來,汽車將會被人類廢棄(all autos will be abandoned and allowed to rust)」,「在可預見的將來,汽車依然會是城市交通的主要方式(the car will remain a leading means of urban travel in the foreseeable future)」。這樣本文討論的側重點也就呈現出來了——這里將要討論的是汽車的「未來」。
下文接續第一段所提的第二個觀點,說明未來被人類繼續使用的汽車可能會發生的變化。未來的汽車會變得更小,更加安全,也更有經濟性,同時不會使用汽油驅動(smaller, safer, and more economical, and should not be powered by the gasoline engine),污染也會比現在的汽車小得多。
以上算是未來汽車相較現在的優點,不過,未來的汽車也依然存在問題,那就是交通擁堵(still be the main problem in urban traffic congestion)。但作者馬上提出了解決辦法:自動公路系統(automated highway system)。最後的兩個大段對這一系統的工作原理進行了解釋。
汽車進入自動公路系統後,車身上會有一條伸縮臂與鐵軌連接,此時汽車的動力便由系統提供電力控制(解決了污染問題),而汽車的操控則轉交給中心電腦,由電腦監控汽車所有的運行動作(第四段)。
司機所要做的是只是用電話輸入指令,告訴系統所要到達的目的地。系統會計算最佳路徑,同時保證行進路徑的暢通。這時,司機就有時間放鬆了,因為快要到達目的地的時候系統會自動發出提示(第五段)。
這一系統的效率如何呢?它在一個小時內的容量是10000輛汽車,而如今的公路只能容許1500-2000輛汽車通過(will be able to handle 10,000 vehicles per hour, compared with the 1,500 to 2,000 vehicles that can be carried by a present-day highway)。
21. A
題目問未來汽車的一項重要發展很可能是……
A,動力來源。
B,駕駛系統。
C,監控系統。
D,可乘坐人數。
第二段對未來汽車的可能發展做了展望:It should become smaller, safer, and more economical, and should not be powered by the gasoline engine. The car of the future should be far more pollution-free than present type,這里提到了5種可能的情況,包括大小(smaller),安全性(safer),經濟性(more economical),動力來源(not be powered by the gasoline engine),環保(more pollution-free)。四個選項中只有A與其中一種情況一致,本題選A。
22. C
題目問作者主要關心的問題是什麼。
A,如何實現汽車無污染。
B,如何製造更小更安全的汽車。
C,如何解決交通擁堵問題。
D,如何發展一套自動地鐵系統。
上一題考查了第二段,那麼這一題應該考查第二段以後的內容了。第三段指出the auto in the future will still be the main problem in urban traffic congestion,即未來汽車依然會存在交通擁堵問題。此後的兩段全部圍繞如何解決交通問題展開,說明了一種新的公路系統如何可以解決這一問題。這樣 的話,本題的答案應該是C。A和B在第二段中都提到了,但只是一筆帶過,沒有繼續論述。D有一定迷惑性,要注意D說的是subway系統,而不是文章所著 力說明的highway系統。D這個選項應該是源於第四段which is similar to those powering subway trains electrically這句,但這里僅是把highway系統的一項裝置(rail)和subway(地鐵)的裝置進行對比而已(which指代前面的 rail,is similar to是「與……相似」,power做動詞講,指為地鐵列車提供電力。全句意思就是「與那些在地鐵里為列車提供電力的rail一樣」)。
23. A
題目問在自動公路系統中,是什麼為汽車提供電力。
A,一根鐵軌。
B,一台發動機。
C,一支可伸縮的機械臂。
D,一個電腦控制器。
文章講到自動公路系統的動力問題是在第四段。第四段一共三句話,第一句講的是汽車進入系統後,會從車身伸出一條可伸縮的機械臂,搭在一根鐵軌上。第二句講 的是與鐵軌連接後,汽車就交由公路系統提供電力作為動力。第三句講的是汽車的控制問題,講的是汽車的操控完全交予電腦。從這三句話可以看出,機械臂是從汽 車車身伸出的,不會提供電力,僅起到一個連接鐵軌的作用。鐵軌通過機械臂為汽車提供電力,並開始以電力作為動力,與發動機無關了。電腦只起控制汽車的作 用,與動力無關。這樣,本題應該選A。
24. D
題目問在自動公路系統中,司機所要做的只有什麼。
A,保持正確的行進路線。
B,等待最後到達終點。
C,隨時與電腦中心保持聯系。
D,用電話把行車目的地告知系統。
文章的最後一段講到了司機在自動公路系統中應做哪些事情。首先是電話通知系統其行車目的地(The driver will use a telephone to dial instructions about his destination into the system),此後電腦會計算最佳行車路線並為該車保留行車路段(The computer will calculate the best route, and reserve space for the car all the way to the correct exit from the highway)。最後司機所要做的就是等待到達終點了。
從這里可以看出,司機需要做的事情是電話通知系統其行車目的地,D的說法與此相符。B的說法在文中雖然也可以找到,但等待本身不能算是實質的事情。如果不輸入目的地,而只是等待的話,永遠也到不了要去的地方。
25. C
題目問作者對汽車未來的態度是怎樣的。
A,熱情的。
B,悲觀的。
C,樂觀的。
D,謹慎的。
作者在開頭首先介紹了兩種關於汽車未來的觀點,一是汽車將會被人廢棄,二是汽車依然會是城市交通的主要方式。此後,作者的論述一直以第二個觀點為前提展開。可見作者首先是看好汽車在未來世界的地位的。作者的觀點至少不是悲觀的。
第二段對未來汽車的變化進行了展望,作者認為汽車會朝向更小、更安全、更環保等方面發展。這一觀點應該說是樂觀的。
第三段指出了未來汽車發展的問題所在,但馬上提出了解決方法,最後兩段具體描述了這一方法。雖有問題,但可以解決,這里體現的還是樂觀的態度。
Enthusiastic是熱情的、充滿激情的意思,所表達的情緒非常熱烈,顯然並不符合文章的基調。Cautious所體現的態度應該是樂觀方面與悲觀方面等量齊觀,同等重視,與文意同樣不符。綜上,C最為合適。
❹ 求這道英語閱讀理解的全文翻譯,謝謝
大概是這樣的:
司機將車停在街邊來休息一下。 當他躺在座椅上並閉上他的眼睛時, 一男子走到近前並敲了敲車窗來詢問時間。 司機睜開眼並看了看他的手錶,「現在早8點,」他說。 然後就他又去睡了。
但是很快他又醒過來,因為第二個人敲了敲車窗。 「先生,你知道時間嗎?」他問。 司機又看了看他的手錶,並告訴該男子現在是早8點半。
照此下去, 他將不能好好休息, 於是他寫了個便簽並將其貼在車窗上。 它顯示,「我不知道時間。」
男人有一次躺到座椅上睡他的覺。 幾分鍾後, 第三個人走過來, 開始敲車窗並說:「嗨, 先生。 現在是9點。」

❻ 英語閱讀理解
原文:這場事故讓這位火鳥(車牌)的司機代價不菲:要花一千美金換新引擎,更別提同時被指控無照駕駛以及試圖逃逸,危險駕駛。
選項A 轉錯了個彎 沒有上下文,不好判斷,單看例句原文,似乎沒提那就不選
選項B 車子有點問題 理由同A
選項C 被警察攔下 理由同A···
選項D 為事故買單/付賬 這個,不合適。他確實要花錢換引擎,但這不是為事故付賬是為零部件。
給出的原文例句里,沒有說過事故一共造成多少損失(損失的肯定不止一個引擎),所以談不上為事故付賬。
