高三英语阅读理解练习

A

Many Chinese kids，known as “left-behind” children，hardly ever see their parents，because their parents are migrant workers.

Li Ling,11，is a left-behind child.Her parents have been working in Zhejiang for 10 years，while she lives with her grandparents in Guangdong.She was reunited with her parents last Spring Festival.As the number of migrant workers in China increases，the number of left-behind children is rising fast.Li is one of the 61.02 million left-behind children under 17.They account for 37.7 percent of rural children and 21.88 percent of all Chinese children.

“The large number of left-behind children has already become a social issue.If left unsolved，it will cause serious problems，”Wang Zhenyao，director of the China Philanthropy Research Institute，told China Daily.The education level of adults supervising (监督) these children is generally not that high.They can only take care of the children’s personal safety and daily living，being unable to care for their educational and spiritual needs.Meanwhile，the absence of parental support will make some left-behind children lack self-confidence.They may be slower in physical and emotional growth than their peers.Others may even become “problem youths”．

To solve this problem，the government is taking action.For instance,30 provinces and cities have allowed certain children to attend school and take the college entrance exam in the city where their parents are.However，Wang suggested that the country do more，such as making policies encouraging migrant workers to work in their hometowns.He also said that a well-balanced child welfare system is needed.“These children are the future of the nation，so they deserve our loving care and protection，” Wang said.

As the longer life and rapid decrease in the labor-age population are expected，extending the retirement age is a wise choice for the government.This is why at the Third Plenum (全会) of the 18th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China it was agreed that there should be a study on the subject.

It is undoubtedly necessary for the government to adjust its policies to meet the challenge of an increasingly aging society.According to the government，China’s senior citizens above the age of 60 will reach 200 million，about 14.8 percent of the population，by the end of this year，and the figure is expected to grow to 248 million by the year of 2020 and more than 400 million by 2050，when they will account for 30 percent of the population.Meanwhile，extending the retirement age will result in several benefits—slowing the rapid increase of the retired，reducing the rapid decline

in experienced workers and keeping the labor-age population at a considerable size for stable economic development.

However，before the policy is drawn up there will need to be thorough research，so there can be careful consideration of the interests of all parties to make sure that the new policy does not harm the interests of workers in different jobs.

There are 112 million workers who do heavy physical labor and may not be willing to put off their retirement to a later age.And the opinions of government employees and other white-collar workers will also need to be listened to before a policy is introduced to extend their retirement to a later age.

No doubt it will be impossible to please all，but it should be possible to make the policy acceptable to the most.Anyway，any extensions that will hopefully help reduce the negative influences of our increasingly aging society also need to be fair.

答案： C

With 10,600 bicycles in circulation，Paris city officials are hoping the program will provide people with more environmentally friendly transportation.

It seems both Parisians and tourists are taking advantage of the program.Since its launch a little over two weeks ago，Vélib has already seen almost half a million rentals.And，with the addition of 10,000 more bikes and 700 more stations in the next 12 months，city officials expect at least 200,000 regular users by year end.

Parisian Olivier Bioret has already gone for a spin on one of Vélib’s vehicles and plans to make use of them more often.

“It’s a real pleasure—when，like me，you don’t have space enough in your flat to have your own bike—to be able to discover，to cross Paris and not have to take the subway，” he said.

As a socialist and longtime green activist，Mayor Bertrand Delanoe regards Vélib as just a part of his plan to reduce car traffic and，thus，lower pollution by 2020.

Apart from its environmental benefits，Vélib is also being praised as a way of collecting money for the city，for all the money from rentals goes to the city government.

Paris is not alone in its attempt to profit from the power of the bicycles.

Across the globe，cities such as Barcelona，which stated its bike-share program in March with 1,500 vehicles and 100 stations，and New York，which launched a five-day trial program last month，are using bicycles as a way to cut back on both traffic and pollution.

However，it remains to be seen whether people’s acceptance of these programs is simply a passing fashion or whether this movement has the power to take root and transform the face of public transportation around the world.

语篇解读 本文是一篇新闻报道，主要报道了巴黎开展的为市民提供租借自行车服务以倡导环保并缓解交通压力的活动。

5．The real purpose of Vélib is________. A．to help people save money and space B．to make some money for the city government C．to provide convenience to both Parisians and tourists D．to reduce traffic and pollution in the city

解析： 写作意图题。根据文章第五段中的“as just a part of his plan to reduce car traffic and，thus，lower pollution by 2020”可知，此项活动是为了推进巴黎的环保式交通，即缓解交通压力，减少污染。

答案： D

6．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A．There will be 700 stations in one year’s time. B．There will be over 20,000 bikes in use in a year. C．In the first two weeks there were nearly a million rentals. D．There will be 200,000 regular rentals each day by year end.

解析： 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“With 10,600 bicycles in circulation”和第二段中的“And，with the addition of 10,000 more bikes...in the next 12 months”可知，已有10 600辆自行车，在未来12个月内会新增10 000辆，所以在未来一年内会有20 600辆自行车投入使用，B项表述正确。

答案： B

7．We can know from the passage that________. A．other cities also have such programs B．Parisians can use the bicycles free of charge C．Paris sets an example to many other cities D．Paris is the first city to start such a program

解析： 细节理解题。通过对文章倒数第二段的整体理解可知，全球有一些城市，如Barcelona和New York也开展了类似的活动。

答案： A

8．As to the future of the program，the author is________. A．critical C．uncertain

B．optimistic D．negative

解析： 观点态度题。根据文章最后一段“However，it remains to be seen...”可推知，作者对这一活动的前景并不确定。critical意为“批判的”；optimistic意为“乐观的”；

uncertain意为“不确定的”；negative意为“负面的”。

答案： C

D

Peter，a high school student，was pretty busy with school，and he was on the soccer team.High school was hard，because everyone wanted to have nice clothes，hang out，drive cars，and all these cost money.Peter’s father was the sort of guy that believed you had to earn whatever you got，so he wasn’t just about to hand over lots of money for Peter to use to have fun.So，he had to get a job.

During his freshman year summer vacation，his classmate got him a job working on a hay (干草) farm.He threw hay up into wagons as the tractor drove around fields，and then they stacked (剁起) it in the hot barn.It was a hot，low-paying job.

He once worked a few nights a week at a grocery store.He put things on the shelf.It was a lot of lifting and carrying，and his arms were strong from this and the previous job.It was dull and didn’t pay much.

He took some time off when soccer got serious，but the following summer he tried working at a lumber yard.It was hot outside，but he got a lot of exercise lifting and carrying things like boards and drywall.He also learned a lot about building supplies.It still didn’t pay well.

From there，he spent a year doing some tutoring for a friend of the family，but that was piecemeal.His first real job came the last year at school，when he fixed registers and worked on computers at a big box store.It was his favorite job yet，but it still didn’t pay well.

What Peter realized with all of these jobs was that he needed a better paying job！The only way to get that was to get trained or educated.He could go to school and get a 2-year degree in an office or technical position.His other choices were going to a 4-year college or joining the army.He wasn’t sure what he was going to do yet，but he knew he had to do something.Jobs were a lot of work，money was hard to earn，but he liked staying busy and being able to buy things.Peter wanted the most out of life，and that meant education.

语篇解读 本文是一篇记叙文。一个名叫Peter的高中生想要买好看的衣服、出去闲逛、开车，而这一切都需要钱。于是他就想自己挣钱来满足这些需求。然而打了五份工之后，他依然收入微薄。最后，他终于意识到要想找到一份好的工作，唯一的途径就是接受培训或接受教育，所以他现在必须好好学习。
