河北省秦皇岛市卢龙县2016高考英语阅读理解含语法填空练习（1）nowadays women appear to have a positive image of themselves as safer drivers than men.in a survey done for insurer metlife,51% of women said they drive more safely.the evidence is on their side：men are 3.4 times more likely than women to get a ticket for careless driving and 3.1 times as likely to be punished for drunk driving.“women are on average less aggressive and more law abiding (守法的) drivers，which leads to fewer accidents，” the report says.however，not all male drivers share the same opinion.of the men surveyed by metlife,39% claimed male drivers were safer.the findings did back them up on one point：automotive knowledge.the report showed that more men are familiar with current safety equipment such as electronic stability control，which helps prevent rollover accidents. auto safety unavoidably matters to money.insurance companies focus on what classes of drivers have the lowest dollar amounts of claims，and for now，that mainly includes women.in general，women pay about 9% less for auto insurance than men.a study by the website insweb also showed that auto insurance rates are lower for women in most states.among individual states，women get the greatest，advantage in wyoming (where they pay 20% less)，south dakota and washington，d.c.，where their insurance costs are 16% lower.“more than 11,900 male drivers died in us traffic accidents in 2009，compared with just under 4,900 women drivers” according to the study.“based on miles traveled，men died at a rate of 2.5 deaths per 100 million miles traveled，vs.1.7 deaths

they get high grades, all right, but only by becoming dull laborers, their noses always stuck in a book. they are not good at social communication and look clumsy when it comes to sports. how, then, do we account for domenica roman or paul melendres? roman is on the tennis team at fairmont senior high school. she also sings in the choral group, serves on the student council(学生会) and is a member of the mathematics society. for two years she has maintained as in every subject. melendres, now a freshman at the university of new mexico, was student-body president at valley high school in albuquerque. he played soccer and basketball well, exhibited at the science fair, and meanwhile worked as a reporter on a local television station. being a speech giver at the graduation ceremony, he achieved straight as in his regular classes, plus bonus points for as in two college-level courses. how do super-achievers like roman and melendres do it? brains arent the only answer. top grades dont always go to the brightest students, declares herbert walberg, professor of education at the university of illinois at chicago, who has conducted major studies of super-achieving students. knowing how to make the most of your innate(天赋的) abilities counts for more. much more. in fact, walberg says, students with high i.q.s sometimes dont do as well as classmates with lower i.q.s. for them, learning comes too easily and they never find out how to get down. hard work isnt the whole story, either. its not how long you sit there with the books open, said one of the many a students we interviewed. its what you do while youre sitting. indeed, some of these students actually put in fewer hours of homework time than their lower-scoring classmates. the kids at the top of the class get there by mastering a few basic techniques that others can readily learn. 1. the “nerds” can probably be _.a. dull bookworms lacking sports and social skillsb. successful top students popular with their peersc. students with certain learning difficultiesd. born leaders crazy about social activities2. what can we conclude from the first paragraph?a. most tv programs and films are about straight-a students.b. people have unfavorable impression of straight-a students.c. everyone knows about straight-a students from tv or films.d. straight-a students are well admired by people in the society.3. some students become super-achievers mainly because _.a. they are born cleverer than othersb. they worker longer hours on studyc. they make full use of their abilitiesd. they know the short cut to success4. what will be talked about after the last paragraph?a. the interviews with more students.b. the role i.q. plays in learning well.c. the techniques to be better learners.d. the achievements top students make.5. what can we infer from the passage?a. students neednt work hard on study any more.b. the brightest students can never get top grades.c. top students certainly achieve all-around developments. d. students with average i.q.s can become super-achievers.【参考答案】15 a b c c d【2013届广东省高三上期末华附、省实、广雅、深中四校联考】this is our country, america. the country where everyone is supposed to have a shot at financial success. the country of dreams and ambition. yet, caused by the endless pursuit of individual profit, our country is a mess. and we owe it all to capitalism. we live in a society where people are forced to live without health coverage. a country where the poor can hardly feed themselves while the rich decide which one of their 10 homes to stay at for the night. all of these sad things arise out of capitalism. sadly, our country values little more than money. it motivates our decisions and even influences entire political parties. we have gotten to the point in society where a human life comes secondary to our financial security. any rational society would value life above all else and realize that health is a basic human right. yet in our world, money comes first.i never once have claimed to be an economist and have no interest in debating the financial advantages of any economic system. yet socialism surely looks better than what we have. if we lived in a socialist society, we would be a country without such an unfair wealth distribution. we would value friendship over business and we would treat one another as humans. most importantly, however, is that money would stop controlling our lives and we could act how humans should act. capitalism has created an “every man for himself” existence. everything is a battle for limited resources and fuels. we have become so accustomed to the life value that we will do whatever we have to look out for ourselves. yet is this really the kind of life we want?we have become so illusioned. we are tired of the misdirection. all economic systems have their issues, but i feel like ours is turning our country into something it shouldnt be. the good of man falls secondary to money. in our world, it is all about dollars and cents, which, unfortunately for most, makes no sense.51. in the authors opinion, the root cause of the present situation in his country is _.a. money b. peoples value c. social unfairness d. social system【答案】d 【解析】细节理解题。根据we owe it all to capitalism所有的一切都是因为是资本主义社会，也就是他们国家的制度，故选d。52. according to the passage, which is not the characteristic of capitalism?a. individualism b. endless pursuit of wealth c. humanism d. great gap between the rich and the poor 【答案】c【解析】细节理解题。individualism个人利己主义； endless pursuit of wealth 无休止追求财富；humanism 人道主义；great gap between the rich and the poor富人和穷人的距离拉大；根据capitalism has created an “every man for himself” existence.利己主义；caused by the endless pursuit of individual profit, 无休止追求财富；if we lived in a socialist society, we would be a country without such an unfair wealth distribution. 财富分配不均；这些都是资本主义的特征，只有人道主义是社会主义的特征，故选c。53. how does the author feel about his country?a. concerned b. angry c. skeptical d. hopeless 【答案】a 【解析】细节理解题。concerned关心的； angry生气的； skeptical 怀疑的； hopeless绝望的。根据yet is this really the kind of life we want? i feel like ours is turning our country into something it shouldnt be.这里显示出作者很关心自己的国家，故选a。54. which of the following would the author agree with?a. life should be placed at the top of our considerations.b. socialism is perfect.c. health is equally important as wealth.d. the pursuit for wealth should be restricted. 【答案】a 【解析】细节理解题。根据any rational society would value life above all else 及the good of man falls secondary to money.作者同意钱放在第二位，生命放在第一位，故选a。55. which of the following might be the best title of the passage?a. how to save america b. capitalism is in troublec. why is america in trouble d. america is in trouble 【答案】c【解析】标题归纳题。根据本文的内容叙述了美国为什么处于困境之中，故选c。【2014高考英语福建省莆田市教学质量检查试卷】recently we told you about a finding that more years of school could help students get higherscores on intelligence teststhat was the finding of a study of teenage males in norwaynow，other research shows that physical activity may help students do better in their classes .the research comes as educators in some countries are reducing time for activities like physical educationthey are using the time instead for academic subjects like maths and readingthe studies appeared between 2007 and 2013they included more than 55，000 children，aged 6 to 18amika singh：“based on the results of our study，we can conclude that being physically active is beneficial for academic performance. there are，first，physiological explanations，like more blood flow, and so more oxygen to the brainbeing physically active means there are more hormones(荷尔蒙)produced like endorphins(内啡肽)and endorphins make your stress level lower and your mood improved, which means you also perform better.”also，students involved in organized sports learn rules and how to follow themthis could improve their classroom behavior and help them keep their mind on their workthe study leaves some questions unanswered，howevermsstash says it is not possible to say whether the amount or kind of activity affected the level of academic improvementthis is because of differences among the studies .alsothey were mostly observational studiesan observational study is where researchers do not do controlled comparisonsthey only describe what they observeso they might observe a link that students who are more active often have better gradesbut that does not necessarily mean being active was the cause of those higher gradesthe researchers said they found only two high - quality studiesthey called for more high-quality studies to confirm their findingsthey also pointed out that “outcomes for other parts of the world may be quite different. ”still，the general finding was that physically active kids are more likely to do better in schoolmssingh says schools should consider that finding before they cut physical education programsher paper on “physical activity and performance at school”is published in the archives of pediatric and adolescent medicine72the passage mainly tells us that aa research on physical education has been done by the researchersbthere exists a possibility that physical activity leads to higher gradescthe amount or kind of activity directly affects academic leveldthe research shows that the children aged 6 to 1 8 dont do sports73which of the following is true?abeing mentally active is good for academic subjectsbthe more hormones you have，the more stressed you will getcthey have found many high-quality studies to prove the researchdthe educators in the research think studies，not exercise，mean much to students74the underlined sentence in paragraph 7 probably means .agood marks result from high-quality studybfindings probably vary in different areascphysical activity will spread all over the worlddacademic performance depends on the surroundings75whats the purpose of writing the passage?ato call our attention to the sports at schoolbto introduce all types of physical activitiescto represent the academic performancedto improve students health
