高一英语阅读理解专讲专练-Unit-9-Technology-整体理解

PAGEUnit9Technology整体理解我们常遇到这样的情况：句子都能看懂，但读完文章印象却不深。这就牵涉到对文章的整体理解。首先，我们要重视文章的题目和首句。文章的题目是文章的主题，文章的内容就是围绕这一主题展开的；而首句是文章的导入，点明作者写作意图或写作背景。文章的每个段落的首句和尾句也是整体理解的关键，首句是开篇明义，而尾句常常是画龙点睛。因此，我们在阅读时要养成这样一个习惯：见了文章的题目，要停顿一下，想一想这篇文章大概写的什么。阅读时，要特别注意每段的第一句与最后一句，并用心记住。读完全文后要将全文的主要内容快速回忆一下，这样既把握了文章的主要内容和框架结构，又学会了作者的逻辑推理的方法，从而更好地理解这篇文章。PassageA阅读理解OnOctober12,1989,someBritishscientistswereworkingatthecomputerstolookfortheinformationtheyneeded.Suddenlytheysawalotofverybrightpointscrossingthecomputersscreens.Atthesametimethecomputerswereworkingmuchslower.Tofindoutwhatwashappeningtheystoppedtheirworktochecksomepartsofthecomputers.Totheirhorror(恐怖),theyfoundoutthatmostoftheirstoredinformationwasgotridofbycomputerviruses(病毒)!Clearlyallthesecomputershadbeeninfected(感染)bycomputerviruses.Itissaidthatthecomputervirusesweremadebyagroupofyoungmenfondofplayingtricks.①Theyallhadexcellenteducation.Theycreatedthevirusesjusttoshowtheirintelligence(才能).ThesekindsofcomputervirusesarenamedJerusalemViruses.Thesevirusescanstayincomputersforalongtime.Whenthetimecomestheywillattack(袭击)thecomputersbyloweringthefunctions(功能),damagingtheirnormalprogramsorevengettingridofalltheinformation.②WenowcometoknowthatJerusalemVirusesoftenattackcomputersonFridayandthattheyarespreading(传播)toalotofcomputers.AmongthecountriesthatwereattackedbycomputerviruseslastyearareBritain,Australia,SwitzerlandandtheU.S.Buttillnow,howtogetridoftheterriblevirusesremainsaproblem.根据文章内容，选择正确答案：1.Whenthevirusesattackthecomputers,thecomputerswillwork____.A.normallyB.slowlyC.fasterD.well2.Thegroupofyoungmencreatedthevirusesto____.A.damagethecomputersB.testtheirabilityC.tellpeoplethattheywereintelligentD.playatrickonusersofthecomputers3.Accordingtothepassage,computervirusesseemto____.A.havebeeninnatureforyearsB.stayinanycomputersC.bedifficulttogetridofatpresentD.beabletobegotridofinthenearfuture4.Accordingtothepassage,whichofthefollowingisTRUE?A.Lastyearfourcountriesfoundtheircomputerwereinfectedbyviruses.B.Theviruseswillcometoanewcomputerafterstayingintheoldoneforsometime.C.Scientistsaretryingtofindawaytogetridoftheviruses.D.TheJerusalemVirusesaredangeroustohumanhealth.难句注释①Itissaidthatthecomputervirusesweremadebyagroupofyoungmenfondofplayingtricks.据说计算机病毒是由一群喜欢搞恶作剧的年轻人制造出来的。Totalwords:239Readingtime:____Readingspeed:____②Whenthetimecomestheywillattackthecomputersbyloweringthefunctions,damagingtheirnormalprogramsorevengettingridofalltheinformation.当时机到来时，它们就会通过减弱计算机的功能、破坏它们的程序甚至删除所有的信息来攻击计算机。PassageB阅读理解MrJacksonlivedinthecentreofLondonbuthehadahotelneartheairport.Therealotofforeignersstayedfornight.Hedidn'tknowanyotherlanguagebutEnglishandhefounditC.hisfamilywilltakehimtothehospitalD.peoplewilltakehimtotownbycarriage2.FromthispassageweknowradioandTV____atthattime.A.killedthespecialwayofspeakingB.whistledallthenewsandopinionsC.helpedComerapeopletocommunicateD.didnotappearonComeraislandyet3.Comeraislandisspecialinthat____.A.manyvisitorsgothereeveryyearB.novisitorshaveeverbeenthereC.peopletherehavespecialearstohearwhistlesD.peoplethereusethewhistlelanguagetocommunicatewitheachother4.WhichofthefollowingisNOTtrueaccordingtothepassage?A.ItisnoteasyforapersontoliveonComeraislandifhecannotwhistle.B.ThewhistlelanguagecanonlybefoundinComera.C.Thewhistlelanguagehasbeenusedforhundredsofyearsontheisland,butwillnotbeusedanylonger.D.Therecordshowsthatonebestwhistlercanbeheardbyotherssevenmilesaway.难句注释①Comeraistheonlyplaceintheworldwhichhasawhistlelanguage.Comera是世界上惟一使用口哨语言的地方。Totalwords:313Readingtime:____Readingspeed:____②RadioandTVoftenkillthespecialwaysofspeakinginthedifferentpartsofacountry.收音机和电视机的使用常常会使一个国家的不同地区的特殊讲话方式彻底消失。PassageD完形填空Awelldressedmanenteredafamousjewelry(珠宝)shoponeday.He1tobuyapearl(珍珠)forhiswifesbirthday.The2didn'tmatter,sincebusinesshadbeengoodforhimthatyear.①After3anumberofbeautifulandexpensivepearls,hechose4blackone.Itwould55,000dollars.Hepaid,tooktheblackpearl,shookhandswiththesalesmanandleft.Afewdayslater,theman6andsaidthathiswifelikedthepearlsomuchthatshewantedanotheronejustlikethis.It7beexactlythesamesizeandquality(质量),8shewantedtohavea9ofearrings.Thesalesmanseemed10.Thenthemansuggestedthatthesalesmanadvertise(登广告)inthenewspaperto11S｜25,000forsuchapearl.②Sothesalesmandid.Manypeople12theadvertisement(广告),butnobody13apearlwhichwasjusttherightsizeandquality.Justwhenthejewelerhadgivenup,alittleoldladycameintohis14.Shetookoutonesuchblackpearl15herpurse.“Idon'tliketo16withthepearl,”shesaidsadly.“Itwasgiventomebymymother,whohadreceiveditfromher17mother.ButIreallyneedthe18.”Thesalesmanwasverygladandquicklypaidherforthepearl.Thenhecalledthe19totellhimthegoodnews.However,themancouldneverbe20.Cleverreaders,canyouguesswhy?根据文章内容，选择正确答案：1.A.reportedB.saidC.wishedD.knew2.A.colorB.designC.priceD.size3.A.examiningB.checkingC.testingD.watching4.A.abigB.agoodC.anexpensiveD.anunusual5.A.costB.payC.worthD.buy6.A.arrivedB.cameC.returnedD.stopped7.A.couldB.mightC.shouldD.hadto8.A.asB.ifC.thoughD.when9.A.boxB.lotC.numberD.pair10.A.joblessB.homelessC.helplessD.careless11.A.askB.giveC.offer
