1、高三英语阅读理解限时训练(2)AOn Christmas morning, I went to the Cockhedge Mall. People there were all busy buying their last minute requirements. I needed to buy a birthday card for my son-in-law whose birthday is the 29th of December. Picking up a few more things as well as my cared I went to join the line for

2、 the express checkout which was for people who only had a few items in a basket and not a trolley load. This line was next to the Customer Service desk.Seemingly waiting quite a long time, I was jogged out of my thoughts by a voice behind me making comments on the things I bought.It was so funny whe

3、n I realized that she was describing the contents of my basket. The owner of the voice was a very pretty young lady. I said to her that I was going to buy a box of Christmas cookies but the only ones left were not to my liking. The lady told me that just opposite Cockhedge in Superdrug they had lots

4、 of cookies. I said, “Im not going to bother now. I had enough of shops and Im going home.”The assistant from the Customer Service came across at this time saying “If there is anyone in the line with a few items in their basket, none of which needed to be weighed, I will check out their groceries at

5、 the desk.” Because I had the sprouts which needed to be weighted, the young lady accepted the offer and walked away waving goodbye.Eventually my turn came at the checkout.

6、aid “Hope you have a lovely Christmas.” She had been into Superdrug to buy me the cookies while I was still queuing in Cockhedge.What a generosity to a stranger!

11、of mine in Colombia once said his mom got angry because he came home late , so he asked her , “ Mom , what do you think of most people arriving at their jobs so late ? ” That gave her the answer to her question since everyone knows no one wants to get on a bus that is too crowded .

You type almost anything,however unclear,into the space provided and in a second it has come up with hundreds of references. If knowledge is power,then Google commands t

18、he gatewayYahoo Becomes GiantYAHOO(www. yahoo. com)was the first wonder of the web:and in many respects, it still is. It started in January 1994 when two California graduate students,Jerry Yang and David Filo,started compiling(编译)a database of links,mainly for their personal use. But well before the

19、 end of the year, it had become recognizable as Yahoo we know today. In the past seven years,Yahoo had grown rapidly, partly through a long string of buys. Yahoo now includes almost everything you could want:emails,instant messages,chats,clubs,photo albums,and a lot moreeBay Enables Everyone to Buy

20、and SelleBay(www. ebay. com ),which deals with online trading and shopping services,is the most impressive large Internet company where people buy and sell goods and services worldwide. It has,for instance,opened up a global marketplace in which people from Beijing,San Francisco,or Moscow can bid(投标

Yahoo owns more market shares than any other companies on the webD. eBay Companys online service is always there for its usersDTodays children are the “result” of the modern society. Our parents have jobs that

26、 keep them busy almost all day long. They only have a free day in a week. This doesnt allow them to keep an eye on their children.On the other hand, the modern society gives more freedom to the children than they could “handle”. As a child, you dont know how to grow up by yourself until you reach a

27、certain age. That is why you need school and parents to be by your side all the time. If you dont have either of them you may make a lot of mistakes. The social system of the modern society is very lenient especially with the children.Most of the children today are rebels (判逆者). They are rude. They

28、are given too much freedom by their families. This is their parents mistake. They ought to know that the freedom they give to their children is misunderstood.For example it is a bad thing for a 17 year old child to go out in the evening on weekends. Parents are also guilty of the way their children

29、show up in the street or at school. The same guilt belongs to the teaching system as well. Pupils shouldnt be allowed to dress like they were on a fashion presentation at school.Another important fact we can think of regarding the freedom of children is their free will of spending money. Parents sho

30、uldnt allow their children to spend money on whatever they want.I think children are given too much freedom not only by their parents, but also by the society. The latter is more to be blamed!53The writer implies that parents busy lifestyle .Amakes their children become independentBmay lead to a ten

33、 land of Antarctica (南极洲), a huge shelf of ice meets the ocean. At the underside of the shelf there lives a small fish, the Antarctic cod.For forty years scientists have been curious about that fish. How does it live where most fish would freeze to death? It must have some secret. The Antarctic is n

34、ot a comfortable place to work and research has been slow. Now it seems we have an answer. Research was begun by cutting holes in the ice and catching the fish. Scientists studied the fishs blood and measured its freezing point. The fish were taken from seawater that had a temperature of -1.88C and

35、many tiny pieces of ice floating in it. The blood of the fish did not begin to freeze until its temperature was lowered to -2.05C. That small difference is enough for the fish to live at the freezing temperature of the ice-salt mixture.The scientists next research job was clear: Find out what in the

36、 fishs blood kept it from freezing. Their search led to some really strange thing made up of a protein (蛋白质) never before seen in the blood of a fish. When it was removed, the blood froze at seawater temperature. When it was put back, the blood again had its antifreeze quality and a lowered freezing

37、 point.Study showed that it is an unusual kind of protein. It has many small sugar molecules held in special positions within each big protein molecule. Because of its sugar content, it is called a glycoprotein. So it has come to be called the antifreeze fish glycoprotein, or AFGP.57. What is the te

38、xt mainly about?A. The terrible conditions in the Antarctic. B. A special fish living in freezing waters.C. The ice shelf around Antarctica. D. Protection of the Antarctic cod.58. Why can the Antarctic cod live at the freezing temperature?A. The seawater has a temperature of -1.88C. B. it loves to l

39、ive in the ice-salt mixtureC. A special protein keeps it from freezing. D. Its blood has a temperature lower than -2.05C.59. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 5 refer to?A. A type of ice-salt mixture. B. A newly found protein.C. Fish blood. D. Sugar molecule.60. What does “glyco-” in the underlined word “glycoprotein” in the last paragraph mean?A. sugar B. ice C. blood D. molecule41-44 ABCB 45-48 BADC 49-52 BABD 53-56 DBCA57-60 BCBA 高考资源网独家精品资源,欢迎下载!高考资源网Ks5uK&S%5#UKs5uKs%U高考资源网高考资源网高考资源网
