2014高考英语阅读理解基础练习精品题（44）及答案【贵州省湄潭中学2013届月考】bas for visiting walt disney world. people usually have trouble in arranging. the following will give you some practical suggestions on paying a valuable visit to the famous park. when to go? while its always busy, disney world is slightly slower between mid-january and march. its summer when the visitors , combined with the heat and humidity(潮湿)， are crowded. your best choice is either early in the morning or late in the day- often you can enjoy more rides in the first or last two hours of the day than you can the entire rest of the day combined. where to stay? the question: to stay on disney world resort property or not. disney world offers three resort pricing: deluxe(豪华的), moderate, and value, with good facilities and in-hotel attractions. that said, they all offer “extra magic hours”(early access to the theme parks), guaranteed entry when the parks are over-crowded, and frequent shuttle service to the many attractions. off-property hotels will have shuttle transfers, but often at less regular intervals(间歇)，wasting more time in transport. youll also need a rental car, which adds to the expense, making up for saving in the hotel rate. the “magic your way package” is a good value if you have a large family. what to do? make use of the “fast pass” , which , for no extra cost, allow you to insert your entrance ticket into a particular machine at the attraction and receive a schedule ride time a little later on. for example, use your fast pass ticket at a ride just before getting lunch. once youre done eating, you can return to the ride and jump right on during the busiest time of day. at the animal kingdom, the animals are most active either early or late in the day, so plan accordingly. thankfully this is fit for the least busy times of day in the park. study the map of the park the night before to plan your visit. youll save time by knowing where things are and where youre headed. 60. visitors who use fast pass tickets _ a. can get discounts on tickets b. will have a well-planned ride time c. will often be checked at the exit d. have to pay more for their tickets 61. if you have referred to the map of the park, you _ a. are sure to save time b. will get the lowest-priced tickets c. can learn the parks location d. may have your lost tickets replaced 62. the underlined word “this” in the text

can be learned from part 2 that _ a. every visitor will have a rental car for free b. all the shuttle transfers are convenient for visitors. c. three typed of resort pricing are offered by disney world d.young couples are advised to take the magic your way package .60、b abc many of us mistakenly believe that its wrong to think we have any good qualities. we may spend a lot of time blaming ourselves for our negative qualities, thinking that self criticism is the key to improving our performance. however, a constant focus on our supposed shortcomings can stop our efforts to make friends with other people. how can we believe that others could like us if we believe our inner being is flawed（有缺陷）? if someone seems to dislike you, the reason for that dislike might have little or nothing to do with you. the person who doesnt like you might be fearful, or shallow, or busy or shy. perhaps you and that person are simply a mismatch for each other at this particular time. dont take yourself out of the game by deciding that your flaws are bigger than your good qualities. in fact, some of the very qualities you consider to be flaws may be irresistible to someone else. for all the factors that might cause one person to reject you, there are at least as many factors that will work in your favor with someone else. you might be thirty pounds over your ideal weight, but you may have a wonderful laugh and a real enthusiasm for life. there are many people who dont mind your extra pounds. you may drive a shabby car, but you might be a great dancer and a loyal friend. there are people out there looking for loyalty, or fun, or sweetness, or wisdom, and the package it comes in is not important. if you are worried that you are not beautiful enough to attract friends, keep in mind that not everyone is looking for physical beauty in their friends. you can decide to feel inferior（自卑） because you dont have much money and you dont drive a nice car. you can believe that this is the reason that you dont have many friends in your life. on the other hand, if you are very wealthy you may be suspicious that everyone is after your money and that nobody really likes you as a person. the point is that you can focus on just about anything and believe its the reason you do not have friends and cannot make any. 36. according to the author _ plays an important role in making friends.a. admitting your shortcomings b. self criticism c. modesty d. confidence【答案】d【解析】推理判断题。根据a constant focus on our supposed shortcomings can stop our efforts to make friends with other people.既然我们强调我们的缺点有可能在交朋友方面成为绊脚石，那么我们就应该自信，故选d。37. if you are not liked by a person, _ .a. you should find the reason in yourselfb. youd better talk with the person face to facec. you may not be the one to be blamedd. you and that person misunderstand each other【答案】c【解析】细节理解题。根据if someone seems to dislike you, the reason for that dislike might have little or nothing to do with you. the person who doesnt like you might be fearful, or shallow, or busy or shy.不喜欢你也许和你一点关系都没有，你也许不应该受到责备，故选c。38. we can learn from the third paragraph that _ .a. your good qualities may turn out to be your flawsb. your weakness may also be your strengths in some wayc. your negative qualities cause a person to reject youd. youll have few friends if your flaws are bigger than your good qualities【答案】b【解析】细节理解题。根据in fact, some of the very qualities you consider to be flaws may be irresistible to someone else.你的弱点也许是在某方面是你的强项，故选b。39. which of the following is true according to the

criticism.d. how to lose weight.【答案】a【解析】细节理解题。根据the point is that you can focus on just about anything and believe its the reason you do not have friends and cannot make

characters. but if they use the computer too much, they may end up forgetting the exact strokes of each chinese character when writing on paper. experts suggest people, especially students, write by hand more. do you write by hand more or type more? in beijing, students start using a computer as early as primary school. and computer dependence is more widespread among university students. almost all their assignments and essays are typed on a computer. all the students interviewed say they usually use a computer. its faster and easier to correct if using a computer. and thats why computers are being applied more and more often to modern education. but when people are taking stock in computers increasingly, problems appear. “when im writing with a pen, i find i often cant remember how to write a character, though i feel im familiar with it.” “im not in the mood to write when faced with a pen and paper.” many students dont feel this is something to worry about. now that its more convenient and efficient to write on a computer, why bother to handwrite? many educators think differently. shi liwei, the headmaster of a famous primary school in the capital said, “chinese characters enjoy both practical and aesthetic (审美的) value. but those characters typed with computer keyboards only maintain their practical value. all the artistic beauty of the characters is lost. and handwriting contains the writers emotion. through ones handwriting, people can get to know ones thinking and personality. beautiful writing will give people a better first impression of them.” to encourage students to handwrite more, many primary schools in beijing have made writing classes compulsory(必修的) and in universities, some professors are asking students to turn in their homework and essays written by hand. 64. which of the following can best serve as the title of the passage?a. the importance of handwriting and typing.b. to type or to handwrite.c. writing by computer will replace writing by hand.d. practical and aesthetic value of chinese characters.65. which of the following statements is not the advantage of handwriting?a. handwriting contains the writers emotion.b. the writers thinking and personality are shown in his or her handwriting.c. handwriting can impress people well and build ones self-confidence.d. chinese characters enjoy both practical and aesthetic value.66. the underlined expression “taking stock in” probably means _.a. getting bored withb. getting dependent onc. becoming curious aboutd. getting curious about67. we can draw the conclusion from the passage that _.a. more and more students will give up writing on a computer.b. writing by hand will give way to typing by computer one day.c. more and more students will pay attention to handwriting.d. the typing article better expresses ones emotion and quality.64、bcbc sunny countries are often poor. a shame, then, that solar power is still quite expensive. eight19, a british company by cambridge university, has, however, invented a novel way to get round this. in return for a deposit of around $10 it is supplying poor kenyan families with a solar cell able to generate 2.5 watts of electricity, a battery that can deliver a three amp（安培） current to store this electricity, and a lamp whose bulb is a light-emitting diode（二极管）. the firm thinks that this system, once the battery is fully charged, is enough to light two small rooms and to power a mobile-phone charger for seven hours. then, next day, it can be put outside and charged back up again.the trick is that, to be able to use the electricity, the systems keeper must buy a scratch cardfor as little as a dollaron which is printed a reference number. the keeper sends this reference, plus the serial number of the household solar unit, by sms to eight19. the companys server will respond automatically with an access code to the unit.users may consider that they are paying an hourly rate for their electricity. in fact, they are paying off the cost of the unit. after buying around $80 worth of scratch cardswhich eight19 expects would take the average family around 18 monthsthe user will own it. he will then have the option of continuing to use it for nothing, or of trading it in for a bigger one, perhaps driven by a 10-watt solar cell.in that case, he would go then through the same process again, paying off the additional cost of the upgraded kit at a slightly higher rate. users would therefore increase their electricity supply steadily and affordably. according to eight19s figures, this looks like a good deal for customers. the firm believes the average energy-starved kenyan spends around $10 a month on oilenough to fuel a couple of smoky lampsplus $2 on charging his mobile phone in the market-place. regular users of one of eight19s basic solar units will spend around half that, before owning it completely. meanwhile, as the cost of solar technology falls, it should get even cheaper. 41. the underlined word “get round” in the first paragraph can be replaced by _ .a. make use of b. come up with c. look into d. deal with 【答案】d【解析】词义猜测题。make use of利用； come up with想出； look into调查； deal with处理。根据solar power is still quite expensive及eight19, a british company by cambridge university, has, however, invented a novel way to因为太阳能仍然很贵，所以eight19发明了一个新的方法来解决这个问题，故选d。 42. what should the user do when the electricity in the battery is used up?a. buy a scratch ca
