1、四川省安岳縣2016高考英語閱讀理解二輪練習(xí)（2） 閱讀理解。 Women, be on your guard. There is a new male excuse for not listening to us. A recent study shows that men find it almost impossible to listen to what women say because their brains are out of synch（不同步的）with "complex female tones". Apparently, when men list

2、en to other men about the things they care about, they use only the frontal area of their brains. However, when they listen to women it's different story. They have to work much harder, employing a part of the brain that normally deals with music. So when a man tells you your voice is "music to his

3、ears", he's actually telling the truth, though not in a good way. I'm sure a lot of women could recall times when they have wasted hours explaining why they are completely right about everything in the world, only to wake up the next day to discover that not one brilliant point got through.

4、 Those times when men haven't listened to me, I just thought I was being ignored. I didn't realize I just wasn't singing their favorite music. If I'd realized I was being heard as "music", I would have had a bit of fun with it. Whenever I wanted a "discussion", I'd have brought along my own ban

5、d, complete with string and horn sections. It is difficult not to be suspicious of yet more scientific findings sparing men the blame because of their biology. Isn't this "slaves to biology" all-purpose excuse wearing thin? It's enough to make you wonder at what a strange helpless species men

6、 are ----which part of the body will be "beyond their control" next. Even if there is something in it, we have to take into account that most relationships are likely to become boring. That's the truth of the matter. Male or female, your voice might start out as music to your beloved's ears.

7、But finally it will end up as boredom. 　　When your beautiful tones are there all the time, as they go about their daily business, you start to blend in a bit too much, until finally you become a kind of background noise. 1． The author of this passage tries to ___________. A. throw doubts

8、on a commonly accepted idea B. explain a commonly accepted idea as it is C. give some advice on a common problem D. argue against a common belief 答案解析：答案為B。本題考查文章的寫作目的。本文第二段就揭示了為什么男性聽不進(jìn)去女性的話的原因，文章后面的內(nèi)容對此進(jìn)行了闡述。故答案為B。 2．According to the new study, men don't listen to women becaus

9、e _________ . A. what women say are usually boring B. they don't care about what women say C. they can't deal with female voices D. they regard female voices as music 答案解析：答案為C。本題為推理題。由第三段的內(nèi)容可知，男性在聽同性的話語的時候只是用了大腦的前面區(qū)域；然而聽女性的話語的時候，卻更費力，因為要使用通常用來聽音樂的那部分的大腦區(qū)域。故可推斷，男性不聽女性的話是因為他們大腦不能非常容易地

10、處理女性的聲音。故答案為C。干擾性最強(qiáng)的D選項 “他們把女性的聲音當(dāng)成音樂” 與文意不符。故錯誤。 3．The underlined sentence in the fifth paragraph shows that the author is _______. A. realistic B. humorous C. serious D. funny 答案解析：答案為B。本題為句意推斷題。結(jié)合第五段的內(nèi)容，作者以女性的口吻談到如果她早意識到她是因為 “音樂”而被男人傾聽，她會為此而感到些許開懷。無論何時，如果她想要一場“討論”，就會帶上自己的樂隊，弦號俱全。

11、故可以推斷，劃線部分的語言顯得幽默。 4．What does the author think of the finding of the new study? A. She thinks it doubtful. B. She thinks it interesting. C. She thinks it needs further proof. D. She thinks it right. 答案解析：答案為A。本題為細(xì)節(jié)推斷題。由倒數(shù)第三段首句 “It is difficult not to be suspicious of …

12、” 可知，本句話的同義詞就是doubtful..故答案為A。 5．The author would most probably agree that ________. A. men should accept what women say B. women should talk less and do more housework C. however beautiful voices may be, they will finally become boring D. the relationship between men and wome

13、n should always be improving 答案解析：答案為C。本題為推理題。從最后一段 “When your beautiful tones are there all the time, as they go about their daily business, you start to blend in a bit too much, until finally you become a kind of background noise.” 可知，當(dāng)你美妙的旋律每天都出現(xiàn)在男人日常生活中的時候，最后也會變成背景噪音。故答案為C. A、B未提及；倒數(shù)第二

14、段首句提到了 “… most relationships are likely to become boring.” D選項與此不符，故錯誤。 閱讀理解。 Too much TV-watching can harm children's ability to learn and even reduce their chances of getting a college degree, new studies suggest in the latest effort to examine the effects of television on children. One of

15、the studies looked at nearly 400 northern California third-graders. Those with TVs in their bedrooms scored about eight points lower on math and language arts tests than children without bedroom TVs. A second study ,looking at nearly 1000 grown-ups in New Zealand, found lower education levels among

16、26-year –olds who had watched lots of TV during childhood. But the results don't prove that TV is the cause and don't ride out that already poorly motivated youngsters (年輕人)may watch lots of TV. Their study measured the TV habits of 26-year-olds between ages5 and 15. These with college degrees had w

17、atch an average of less than two hours of TV per week night during childhood, compared with an average of more than 2 1/2 hours for those who had no education beyond high school. In the California study, children with TVs in their rooms but no computer at home scored the lowest while those with no b

D. 細(xì)節(jié)理解題. 根據(jù)第三段 But the results don' prove that TV is the

23、cause and don't ride t out that already poorly motivated youngsters (年輕人)may watch lots of TV.可以確定答案. 3. C.推理判斷題.注意最后一段開頭的 while 是"盡管"的意思,所以這兩段都是圍繞兒 童臥室不應(yīng)該放電視機(jī)的問題. 4. B.主旨大意題.通讀全文可知,文章主要通過兩項研究分析了兒童看電視所造成的 影響.文章第一段第一句話是主題句,所以 B 項作為標(biāo)題是最佳的。 閱讀理解 請閱讀下列短文,從每題 所給的四個選項(A,B,C 和 D)中,選出最佳選項。 One

34、money! Best of all, it is free! It’s “no”. What do you ask? We’ll say it again: “No”. Sweet and simple “no”. Say “no” at your office and see how quickly that pile of work on your desk disappears. “Saying ‘no’ to others means you are saying ‘yes’ to yourself, ” said Leslie Charles, a professiona

35、l speaker from East Lansing, Michigan. “Time is precious. People are spending money buying time. And yet we are willing to give up our time because we can’t say ‘no’.” Susie Watson, a famous writer, said people who always say “yes” need to say “no” without guilt(內(nèi)疚)or fear of punishment. “I would

36、 rather have someone give me a loving ‘no’ than an obligated(強(qiáng)制的) ‘yes’, ” she said.

38、 use up your time, ” Watson said.
