第二篇答案:ADACD
【高中英语阅读理解】
Passage 1
答案:CDCDB
这里要讲述Andrew Jackson 和Martin Van Buren这2届美国总统的小故事。这2个小故事也许可以解释美语中OK一词的来历。故事的真实性我们不得而知,不过内容却很有意思。
第一个解释来源于总统Andrew Jackson的故事。Andrew Jackson几乎没有受到过什么教育,事实上,他对于日常的读写都有困难。当收到重要文件的时候,在尝试阅读之后,还是让他的助手帮忙解释文件的内容。如果批准一份文件,Andrew Jackson就在上面写“all correct”。麻烦的是,他不知道怎么这2个单词怎么拼写,因此,实际上他在文件上写的是“ol korekt”。过了不久,他又把这2个单词缩写为“OK”。
第二个解释来源于总统Martin Van Buren的家乡的名字——纽约的Kinderhook。为了帮助Van Buren成为总统,他的朋友为此组织了一个社团。他们把这个社团叫做Old Kinderhook Club,社团中支持Van Buren的人都被称为“OK”
Passage 2
答案:CCABC
尽管美国幅员辽阔,而且土地所产出的粮食远远超过现有人口的需求,现今的美国却几乎完全是个都市化的国家。不足十分之一的人口在从事农业和林业,而剩余的大多数人都居住在大大小小的城镇中或者城镇的周围。传统的'景象在这里不断发生着变化:小的城镇之间仍然彼此十分相似,典型的小城镇还是呈现出大家心目中的乡村的风貌;但是大部分的美国人却不再住在小城镇了。现在半数的人口都在大约30几个大都市地区(包括附近郊区的大型城市)——这种大都市地区的人口都在百万以上,总的都市人口数量远远超过德国和英国,更不用说法国了。城市和乡村的人口统计需要特别对待,因为我们所谓的住在乡村的人们,每天都会开车前往附近的城镇工作。当远离城镇居住的热潮持续的情况下,城镇周围的乡村地区逐渐盖满了房屋。那么说不定什么时候,一块乡村的地区就变成了城市的郊区。不过,典型的美国人还是越来越趋向于居住在大都市而不是小城镇的环境中。
;❷ 请教一段英语阅读的意思。谢谢
那个出租车司机微笑着向那个家伙挥了挥手。他是那么友好。乘客问司机,“你为什么要那样做?那个家伙会杀掉我们的!”就在我向他嚷的时候,他解释说,“垃圾车法则?很多人就像是一部垃圾车。他们被围绕在垃圾、挫折、愤懑和失望之中。当他们的垃圾车满了的时候,就需要找个地方把这些垃圾卸下来。如果你允许的话,他们甚至会把垃圾倒在你身上。所以呢,当有人向你倒垃圾时,不要往心里去。只需要微笑,挥手,祝福,然后继续前行...”
❸ 以the motorcar will undoubtedly change significantly over the next 30 years开头的英语阅读理解
是这篇吧?还有解析哦,望lz采纳!
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(拥挤). One proposed solution to this problem is the automated highway system.
When the auto enters the highway system, retractable(可伸缩的)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(蜂鸣器)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)
这篇材料讲的是未来汽车的问题。第一段先是举出了两种截然相反的观点:“在不久的未来,汽车将会被人类废弃(all autos will be abandoned and allowed to rust)”,“在可预见的将来,汽车依然会是城市交通的主要方式(the car will remain a leading means of urban travel in the foreseeable future)”。这样本文讨论的侧重点也就呈现出来了——这里将要讨论的是汽车的“未来”。
下文接续第一段所提的第二个观点,说明未来被人类继续使用的汽车可能会发生的变化。未来的汽车会变得更小,更加安全,也更有经济性,同时不会使用汽油驱动(smaller, safer, and more economical, and should not be powered by the gasoline engine),污染也会比现在的汽车小得多。
以上算是未来汽车相较现在的优点,不过,未来的汽车也依然存在问题,那就是交通拥堵(still be the main problem in urban traffic congestion)。但作者马上提出了解决办法:自动公路系统(automated highway system)。最后的两个大段对这一系统的工作原理进行了解释。
汽车进入自动公路系统后,车身上会有一条伸缩臂与铁轨连接,此时汽车的动力便由系统提供电力控制(解决了污染问题),而汽车的操控则转交给中心电脑,由电脑监控汽车所有的运行动作(第四段)。
司机所要做的是只是用电话输入指令,告诉系统所要到达的目的地。系统会计算最佳路径,同时保证行进路径的畅通。这时,司机就有时间放松了,因为快要到达目的地的时候系统会自动发出提示(第五段)。
这一系统的效率如何呢?它在一个小时内的容量是10000辆汽车,而如今的公路只能容许1500-2000辆汽车通过(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
题目问未来汽车的一项重要发展很可能是……
A,动力来源。
B,驾驶系统。
C,监控系统。
D,可乘坐人数。
第二段对未来汽车的可能发展做了展望: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,这里提到了5种可能的情况,包括大小(smaller),安全性(safer),经济性(more economical),动力来源(not be powered by the gasoline engine),环保(more pollution-free)。四个选项中只有A与其中一种情况一致,本题选A。
22. C
题目问作者主要关心的问题是什么。
A,如何实现汽车无污染。
B,如何制造更小更安全的汽车。
C,如何解决交通拥堵问题。
D,如何发展一套自动地铁系统。
上一题考查了第二段,那么这一题应该考查第二段以后的内容了。第三段指出the auto in the future will still be the main problem in urban traffic congestion,即未来汽车依然会存在交通拥堵问题。此后的两段全部围绕如何解决交通问题展开,说明了一种新的公路系统如何可以解决这一问题。这样 的话,本题的答案应该是C。A和B在第二段中都提到了,但只是一笔带过,没有继续论述。D有一定迷惑性,要注意D说的是subway系统,而不是文章所着 力说明的highway系统。D这个选项应该是源于第四段which is similar to those powering subway trains electrically这句,但这里仅是把highway系统的一项装置(rail)和subway(地铁)的装置进行对比而已(which指代前面的 rail,is similar to是“与……相似”,power做动词讲,指为地铁列车提供电力。全句意思就是“与那些在地铁里为列车提供电力的rail一样”)。
23. A
题目问在自动公路系统中,是什么为汽车提供电力。
A,一根铁轨。
B,一台发动机。
C,一支可伸缩的机械臂。
D,一个电脑控制器。
文章讲到自动公路系统的动力问题是在第四段。第四段一共三句话,第一句讲的是汽车进入系统后,会从车身伸出一条可伸缩的机械臂,搭在一根铁轨上。第二句讲 的是与铁轨连接后,汽车就交由公路系统提供电力作为动力。第三句讲的是汽车的控制问题,讲的是汽车的操控完全交予电脑。从这三句话可以看出,机械臂是从汽 车车身伸出的,不会提供电力,仅起到一个连接铁轨的作用。铁轨通过机械臂为汽车提供电力,并开始以电力作为动力,与发动机无关了。电脑只起控制汽车的作 用,与动力无关。这样,本题应该选A。
24. D
题目问在自动公路系统中,司机所要做的只有什么。
A,保持正确的行进路线。
B,等待最后到达终点。
C,随时与电脑中心保持联系。
D,用电话把行车目的地告知系统。
文章的最后一段讲到了司机在自动公路系统中应做哪些事情。首先是电话通知系统其行车目的地(The driver will use a telephone to dial instructions about his destination into the system),此后电脑会计算最佳行车路线并为该车保留行车路段(The computer will calculate the best route, and reserve space for the car all the way to the correct exit from the highway)。最后司机所要做的就是等待到达终点了。
从这里可以看出,司机需要做的事情是电话通知系统其行车目的地,D的说法与此相符。B的说法在文中虽然也可以找到,但等待本身不能算是实质的事情。如果不输入目的地,而只是等待的话,永远也到不了要去的地方。
25. C
题目问作者对汽车未来的态度是怎样的。
A,热情的。
B,悲观的。
C,乐观的。
D,谨慎的。
作者在开头首先介绍了两种关于汽车未来的观点,一是汽车将会被人废弃,二是汽车依然会是城市交通的主要方式。此后,作者的论述一直以第二个观点为前提展开。可见作者首先是看好汽车在未来世界的地位的。作者的观点至少不是悲观的。
第二段对未来汽车的变化进行了展望,作者认为汽车会朝向更小、更安全、更环保等方面发展。这一观点应该说是乐观的。
第三段指出了未来汽车发展的问题所在,但马上提出了解决方法,最后两段具体描述了这一方法。虽有问题,但可以解决,这里体现的还是乐观的态度。
Enthusiastic是热情的、充满激情的意思,所表达的情绪非常热烈,显然并不符合文章的基调。Cautious所体现的态度应该是乐观方面与悲观方面等量齐观,同等重视,与文意同样不符。综上,C最为合适。
❹ 求这道英语阅读理解的全文翻译,谢谢
大概是这样的:
司机将车停在街边来休息一下。 当他躺在座椅上并闭上他的眼睛时, 一男子走到近前并敲了敲车窗来询问时间。 司机睁开眼并看了看他的手表,“现在早8点,”他说。 然后就他又去睡了。
但是很快他又醒过来,因为第二个人敲了敲车窗。 “先生,你知道时间吗?”他问。 司机又看了看他的手表,并告诉该男子现在是早8点半。
照此下去, 他将不能好好休息, 于是他写了个便签并将其贴在车窗上。 它显示,“我不知道时间。”
男人有一次躺到座椅上睡他的觉。 几分钟后, 第三个人走过来, 开始敲车窗并说:“嗨, 先生。 现在是9点。”

❻ 英语阅读理解
原文:这场事故让这位火鸟(车牌)的司机代价不菲:要花一千美金换新引擎,更别提同时被指控无照驾驶以及试图逃逸,危险驾驶。
选项A 转错了个弯 没有上下文,不好判断,单看例句原文,似乎没提那就不选
选项B 车子有点问题 理由同A
选项C 被警察拦下 理由同A···
选项D 为事故买单/付账 这个,不合适。他确实要花钱换引擎,但这不是为事故付账是为零部件。
给出的原文例句里,没有说过事故一共造成多少损失(损失的肯定不止一个引擎),所以谈不上为事故付账。
