吉林榆树市2016高考英语阅读理解(二轮)基础训练(7)及答案
2016高考英语阅读理解--政治经济文化类
What is funny? The short answer is: Who knows? The joke that causes a burst of laughter from one listener might be met with a puzzled look from another.
In general, you should avoid jokes at any business or social gathering where there are more than two people in your conversational group. If there are only two people — and they consist of you and your best friend — go ahead and tell it.
Admittedly, a few people possess a perfect sense of timing, appropriateness, and joke delivery. You are probably not one of them. You might be quite funny and have many great jokes. But there’s a place for jokes — over dinner with family, hiking with friends, but business or social affairs with colleagues and acquaintances (熟人) are not it. It takes a whole other level of joke-telling ability to put a joke into the more formal conversations.
The best jokes come into the conversation so that by the time listeners realize a joke is in progress, the punchline that produces humour is being delivered — to their surprise and delight.
Jokes don’t translate well when you’re in a group with mixed backgrounds: those whose first language is not English, those who might not understand a special term or an “in” expression, young people who wouldn’t catch a reference to some bit of culture familiar to older people — and vice versa (反之亦然).
Never joke about another person in the group — about their name, habits, hometown, profession, appearance, or past. It’s not a question of whether the joke is cheery or appropriate. No one enjoys being singled out this way. When you are the subject of the joke, the laughter doesn’t feel good no matter how hard you try to tell yourself they’re not laughing at you. Because that’s what it feels like.
What do you say if you realize your joke upset someone? Apologize as briefly and as sincerely as you can, and hope that someone changes the subject. Try saying: “I’m sorry. I should have known better” or “I’m sorry. I wasn’t thinking.”
What do you do if people don’t get your joke or don’t appear to find it as funny as you do? First, do not retell it, only louder this time, hoping the point of the joke will be seen. Second, don’t try to push people to get it. People do not like people whose jokes they don’t understand. They feel stupid and need to blame someone. If you want to leave with the goodwill of your listeners, say something to make them feel less foolish. You could say: “I don’t know why I tell jokes when I’m so poor at it.”
The world needs laughter, and good humour is a success wherever it goes, so this caveat (告诫) about joke-telling is not meant to dampen high spirits or to advocate dull conversation. If you’re a gifted story-teller and you know people love your jokes, go for it. We need your kind. The rest of us will save our jokes for family and close friends.
【小题1】According to the passage, it might be appropriate for you to tell a joke at a business or social gathering if ______.
A.the joke is well chosen
B.you have complete confidence in your listeners’ sense of humor
C.only you and your best friend are involved in the conversation
D.the audience consists of your colleagues and acquaintances
【小题2】Why do some jokes fail to work?
A.Because the punchline is too long to catch.
B.Because the joke-teller uses wrong words and expressions.
C.Because the joke-teller and listeners don’t share the same background knowledge.
D.Because the jokes are not properly translated into the listeners’ native language.
【小题3】How will people feel when they are joked about?
A.They will feel happy if the joke is a pleasant one.
B.They will be upset no matter what kind of joke it is.
C.They will enjoy the joke when realizing that people are not laughing at them.
D.They will panic because it makes them the center of attention.
【小题4】When people do not understand a joke they hear, they tend to ______.
A.believe it’s the joke-teller’s fault B.get someone to retell the joke
C.ask for explanation D.say something foolish
【小题5】Which of the following best describes the writer’s opinion on joke-telling?
A.Nobody knows what makes a joke funny.
B.We should not tell jokes unless we are asked to do so.
C.Joke-telling is a very complex thing.
D.Jokes should be told only to friends and family members.

【2014高考英语模拟考试】
A kitchen that gives step-by-step cooking instructions in French could inspire a revolution in language learning in the UK. By using a new technology, it speaks to you as you prepare a French dish. The kitchen breaks new ground by taking language learning out of the classroom and linking it with an enjoyable and rewarding real-life activity.
The new kitchen is designed to be used in schools, universities and even people’s homes. It could also be an existing kitchen. The first version of the technology was tested in the kitchens of project partner Newcastle University. The kitchen could be available for schools and universities, and for the UK market by the June of 2014.
The Newcastle University team is now working on ways to put it on the market. And the European Union has given money to begin programs in six other languages, including English Italian and Spanish. Finally, versions could be developed for any language cuisine(烹饪法)in the world.
Professor Paul says, “By international standards, the UK students are now poor when it comes to learning languages—a problem that certainly has an economic influence. We believe that developing skills in a country’s language and its cuisine will help change the trend.”
On a computer fixed into the kitchen, the user first selects the French recipe(菜谱)they want to follow. Digital sensors built into dishes, containers and other equipment then communicate with the computer to make sure the right instructions are given at the right time, the user can ask the computer to repeat an instruction, or translate it into English, simply by pressing the touch screen. After cooking, the user can test what they have learned by carrying out a short test on the computer.
All grammar and vocabulary has been carefully selected to make sure that using the kitchen adds to basic proficiency(熟练)in understanding French.
Now three easy-carrying versions of the kitchen are being prepared. They’re to be fixed in Newcastle University and at Institute Francais, a London-based charity devoted to teaching the French language.
57. The new kitchen is designed mainly to __________.
A. increase people’s interest in cooking
B. teach people how to cook French dishes
C. offer people a new way to learn languages
D. help cooks learn spoken French in the kitchen
58. Which of the following is TRUE about the kitchen?
A. It has versions in six languages now.
B. It is already available for sale in the UK.
C. It has received strong support from the EU.
D. It can be used only in schools and university.
59. When a person is using the kitchen, ___________.
A. it will give him a test on his cooking skills
B. it can translate French into another language
C. the cooking process will stop if he goes wrong
D. he must be careful so as not to make mistakes
60. What would be the best title for the text?
A. UK students have problems in language learning.
B. New technology helps students learning cooking.
C. An enjoyable and rewarding real-life activity.
D. A Talking Kitchen That Teaches You French.
【小题4】D 主旨大意题。根据文章第一段A kitchen that gives step-by-step cooking instructions in French could inspire a revolution in language learning in the UK. By using a new technology, it speaks to you as you prepare a French dish. The kitchen breaks new ground by taking language learning out of the classroom and linking it with an enjoyable and rewarding real-life activity.可知本文主要介绍的是一种能够帮助我们学习语言的厨房系统。故D正确。

【云南省昆明市2014一模试卷】C
Windbreaks are barriers ( 屏障) formed by trees and other plants. Farmers plant these barriers around their fields, which help prevent the loss of soil, stop the wind from blowing soil away. They also keep the wind from damaging or destroying crops. Besides, extra trees and plants can be cut down and used or sold for wood.
Windbreaks can be highly valuable for protecting grain crops. For example, in parts of West Africa grain harvests were as much as twenty percent higher in fields protected by windbreaks compared to fields without them.
But here is something interesting about windbreaks. They seem to work best when they allow some wind to pass through the barrier of trees or plants around a field. If not, then the movement of air close to the ground will lift the soil. Then the soil will be blown away. For this reason, a windbreak works best if it contains only 60 to 80 percent of the trees and plants that would be needed to make a solid line. An easy rule to remember is that windbreaks can protect areas up to 10 times the height of the tallest trees in the windbreak.
There should be at least two lines in each windbreak. One line should be large trees. The second line, right next to it, can be shorter trees or other plants with leaves. Locally grown trees and plants are considered the best choices for windbreaks. Trees reduce the damaging effects of wind and rain. Their roots help protect soil from being washed away. And trees can provide animals outdoors with shade from the sun.
9. The advantages of building a windbreak are as follows except _____.
A. keeping the wind from destroying grain crops
B. increasing the production of grain harvests
C. providing humans with shade from the sun
D. reducing the damaging effects of wind and rain
10. The author thinks windbreaks are interesting because ______.
A. the movement of air lifts the soil
B. windbreaks allow some wind to pass through
C. large trees are lined with short ones
D. windbreaks can stop the wind getting through
11. If the trees grow to a height of 30 feet, the areas the windbreak can protect are ______.
A. 100 square feet B. 150 square feet
C. 240 square feet D. 300 square feet
12. What can be inferred from the text?
A. Extra trees and plants can be cut down for wood.
B. The environment is going from bad to worse.
C. Trees and plants from abroad are the best for windbreaks.
D. Windbreaks can contribute to agriculture harvests.

沁园春·雪 <毛泽东>
北国风光,千里冰封,万里雪飘。
望长城内外,惟余莽莽;
大河上下,顿失滔滔。
山舞银蛇,原驰蜡象,
欲与天公试比高。
须晴日,看红装素裹,分外妖娆。
江山如此多娇,引无数英雄竞折腰。
惜秦皇汉武,略输文采;
唐宗宋祖,稍逊风骚。
一代天骄,成吉思汗,
只识弯弓射大雕。
俱往矣,数风流人物,还看今朝。
薄雾浓云愁永昼, 瑞脑消金兽。 佳节又重阳, 玉枕纱厨, 半夜凉初透。
东篱把酒黄昏后, 有暗香盈袖。 莫道不消魂, 帘卷西风, 人比黄花瘦。
乖宙男芳梅倚忽占弥导哗邀燎蝗葛氧揉怨秒腆巫对誊炽荡辈
