Ⅲ.阅读理解(共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分)
A
(2013·辽宁高考)China is a land of bicycles.At least it was back in 1992 when I traveled the country.Back then everyone seemed to be riding a bicycle.Millions of them，all black.Cars were rare.Yet since my arrival in Beijing last year，I've found the opposite is true.There are millions of cars.However，people still use their bicycles to get around.For many，it's the easiest and cheapest way to travel today.Bicycles also come in different colors－silver，green，red，blue，yellow，whatever you want.
It's fun watching people biking.They rush quickly through crossroads，move skillfully through traffic，and ride even on sidewalks (人行道)．Bicycles allow people the freedom to move about that cars just can't provide.
Eager to be part of this aspect of Chinese culture，I decided to buy a bicycle.Great weather accompanied my great buy.I immediately jumped up on my bicycle seat and started home.
My first ride home was orderly (守秩序的)．To be safe，I stayed with a “pack” of bikers while cars on the streets came running swiftly out of nowhere at times.I didn't want to get hit.So I took the ride carefully.
Crossing the streets was the biggest problem.It was a lot like crossing a major highway back in the United States.The streets here were wide，so crossing took time，skill and a little bit of luck.
I finally made it home.The feeling on the bicycle was amazing.The air hitting my face and going through my hair was wonderful.I was sitting on top of the world as I passed by places and people.Biking made me feel alive.
31．According to the author，why are bicycles still popular in China today?
A．Because they are traditional and safe.
B．Because they are convenient and inexpensive.
C．Because they are colorful and available.
D．Because they are fast and environment friendly.
32．The author decided to buy a bicycle because he intended ________.
A．to ride it for fun
B．to use it for transport
C．to experience local culture
D．to improve his riding skills
33．How did the author feel about his street crossing?
A．It was boring. B．It was difficult.
C．It was lively. D．It was wonderful.
34．Which of the following best describes the author's biking experience?
A．The author enjoyed showing off his biking skills.
B．The author was annoyed by the air while riding.
C．The author was praised by the other bikers.
D．The author took great pleasure in biking.
B
Many kids are too busy to have time to play creatively or relax after school.Kids who complain about the number of activities they're involved in or refuse to go to them may be a sign that they're burdened with stress.
How can you help kids deal with stress？Proper rest and good nutrition can improve such skills，as can good parenting.Make time for your kids each day.Whether they need to talk or just be in the same room with you，make yourself available.
Even as kids get older，quality time is important.It's really hard for some people to come home after work，get down on the floor，and play with their kids or just talk to them about their day—especially if they've had a stressful day themselves.But expressing interest in your kids' days shows that they're important to you.
Help your child deal with stress by talking about what may be causing it.Together，you can come up with a few solutions like cutting_back_on afterschool activities，spending more time talking with parents or teachers，developing an exercise habit，or keeping a journal.
You can also help by anticipating(期待)potentially stressful situations and preparing kids for them.For example，let a child know ahead of time (but not too far ahead of time)that a doctor's appointment is coming up and talk about what will happen there.Keep in mind，though，that younger kids probably won't need too much advance preparation.Too much information can cause more stress－reassurance(放心)is the key.
Remember that some level of stress is normal；let kids know that it's OK to feel angry，scared，lonely，or anxious and that other people share those feelings.
35．The passage is mainly written for ________.
A．parents B．teachers
C．kids D．doctors
36．You can do the following to help reduce children's stress EXCEPT ________.
A．making yourself available
B．showing interest in kids' days
C．reminding them some stress is OK
D．trying to offer more information
37．The underlined “cutting back on” in the fourth paragraph probably means ________.
A．reducing B．increasing
C．creating D．expecting
38．The purpose of the passage is ________.
A．to find out the sources of stress
B．to offer tips on dealing with stress
C．to give advice on how to relax
D．to explain why stress is harmful
C
You may be fascinated with pictures of animals in the wild.You might have imagined yourself taking pictures of animals that are rarely seen in the city.If you do get that chance，you may want to consider the following tips or rules.
First of all，a lot of professional photographers give respect to these animals and the environment they are in.Just remember that you should respect the animals and the environment in case these animals bite or hurt you.
Keep in mind that you are taking pictures of real，live，wild animals.A wild animal may bite to protect itself.You must be sensitive while taking their pictures and be gentle in all your movements.Do not feed the animals，or interact with animals that are sleeping or caring for their young.
If you will be going to a place where it is privately (私人)owned，you'd better get the owner's permission first before you start taking pictures.
Change the flash of your camera to natural light，so the animals will not be frightened or surprised when you start shooting.Animals do not react well when they are surprised.
Be very patient.Make sure you are aware of the changes in behavior of the animal and its moods.Be familiar with the animals' natural habitat.
Now if those rules are clear，it is time for planning.Consider the weather；some animals do not go out when it is raining while some animals love the rain.Therefore，a little research on the weather will not hurt.You should consider taking pictures after sunrise and before sunset.Now if the animal is nocturnal (夜间活动的)，then you should prepare to battle not only the wild but also the darkness.
An adventure in the wild will make you very excited.However，you should be well equipped，have experts to back you up，and also a permit for doing the photo shoot.If you do not have any of these，then maybe you should consider visiting the zoo instead.
39．The main purpose of the author in writing this passage is________.
A．to call for us to protect animals
B．to show where to buy pictures of animals
C．to explain how to get along with wild animals
D．to give us tips on taking pictures of animals in the wild
40．We can infer from the passage that________.
A．most animals love being taken pictures of
B．we have to finish the pictures before sunset
C．we'd better take pictures when the animals are sleeping
D．we should pay attention to the animals' moods when taking pictures
41．What preparation should you do before going to take photos of wild animals?
①Preparing some food to feed the animals.
②Asking experts for advice.
③Knowing the weather in the animals' habitat.
④Getting a permit for taking photos of wild animals.
A．①②④ B．②③④

The Fighting Temeraire by JMW Turner

Believe it or not，optical illusion(错觉)can cut highway crashes.Japan is a case in point.It has reduced automobile crashes on some roads by nearly 75% using a simple optical illusion.Bent stripes，called chevrons(人字形)，painted on the roads make drivers think that they are driving faster than they really are，and thus drivers slow down.
Now the American Automobile Association Foundation for Traffic Safety in Washington D．C.is planning to repeat Japan's success.Starting next year，the Foundation will paint chevrons and other patterns of stripes on selected roads around the country to test how well the patterns reduce highway crashes.
Excessive speed plays a major role in as much as one fifth of all fatal traffic accidents，according to the Foundation.To help reduce those accidents，the Foundation will conduct its tests in areas where speed-related hazards(危险)are the greatest－curves，exit slopes，traffic circles，and bridges.
Some studies suggest that straight，horizontal bars painted across roads can at first cut the average speed of drivers in half.
However，traffic often returns to full speed within months as drivers become used to seeing the painted bar.
Chevrons，scientists say，not only give drives the impression that they are driving faster than they really are but also make a lane appear to be narrower.The result is a longer lasting reduction in highway speed and the number of traffic accidents.
46．The passage mainly discusses ________.
A．a new way of highway speed control
B．a new pattern for painting highways
C．a new approach to training drivers
D．a new type of optical illusion
47．On roads painted with chevrons，drivers tend to feel ________.
A．they should avoid speed-related hazards
B．they are driving in the wrong lane
C．they should slow down their speed
D．they are approaching the speed limit
48．The American Automobile Association Foundation for Traffic Safety plans to ________.
A．try out the Japanese method in certain areas
B．change the road signs across the country
C．replace straight，horizontal bars with chevrons
D．repeat the Japanese road patterns
49．What does the author say about straight，horizontal bars painted across roads?
A．They are falling out of use in the US.
B．They are applicable only on broad roads.
C．They cannot be applied successfully to traffic rules.
D．They tend to be ignored by drivers in a short period of time.
50．The advantage of chevrons over straight，horizontal bars is that the former ________.
A．can keep drivers awake
B．can cut road accidents in half
C．will have a longer effect on drivers
D．will look more attractive

Apple has entered the textbook market. The tech giant introduced iBooks textbooks a couple of weeks ago when it announced its iBooks 2 platform. They are digital books in a variety of subjects from astronomy to zoology taking in science, maths, history and geography. Apple developed its iPad-based textbooks in connection with major textbook publishers. The company offers a collection of textbooks for high school students.
It sounds like good news for pupils and students. Think of it. No more____________full of textbooks. Every textbook you require can be stored on your iPad. Of course there's a catch. You need to own an iPad and as you know, it is not cheap. You also need to buy digital textbooks, mostly priced each at $ 14.99 (94.74 yuan) or less. Textbook publishing was worth $ 8.7 billion in the US alone last year. Will digital books take over completely in education? Is learning going to evolve into something we do on an electronic tablet computer? That remains to be seen.

综合检测(四)
1．B 考查冠词。第一空泛指“一场音乐会”；第二空星期前为零冠词。
2．B 考查动名词和不定式。consider表示“考虑”，后面跟动名词，表示“考虑做”；consider表示“认为”，构成一个句式为：consider sb./sth. to be结构，这里是被动形式。
3．A 考查动词辨析。adopt表示“采纳”；adapt表示“适应”，因此答案为A。
4．A tell by...从……可以看出。
5．A 考查动名词、不定式、介词的省略问题。can not help do表示“不能帮助做……”；can not help doing表示“忍不住做某事”； 这里表示“不能帮助做……”；be busy (in)doing sth表示“忙于做某事”，介词in省略。
6．B 考查短语动词辨析。根据句意，这里表示“推迟”，用put off。set off“出发”；give off“发出”；turn off“关掉”。
7．D 考查动名词作主语。此句的谓语为made，因此，前面为主语，为动名词短语作主语。
8．A 考查定语从句。当先行词为point，situation，stage，condition等，且在定语从句中作状语时，用关系副词where引导定语从句。
9．A 考查谓语和非谓语的辨析以及不定式和动名词的辨析。根据句子结构可知这里的we referred to是定语从句，句子的主语为artist，因此，这里是缺谓语aim；打算做某事aim后面跟不定式。
10．C 考查交际用语。根据上面的赞美之词，答语应该是表示感谢之类的。因此为C。A项“你不会是认真的吧！”；B和C项是对于感谢的答语。

11．D 根据the better off your life will be可知这里是指你早点“开始”克服这些消极心理。
12．A 这里是指以前发生在你身上的事的两种不同作用，前一种是用来阻止你前进的，另一种则是可以“推着”你前进的。
13．C 根据后面的talented enough or pretty enough可知作者小的时候，别人总是说她不够“聪明”、有天赋或者漂亮。
14．D 根据文章首段的Overcoming negativity is something that can take a lifetime.可知别人对她说的这些话现在对她还有一定的影响，故她现在还在“应对”这种悲伤情绪。

16．A 这里是指第一步是你经常能在书本里“读”到的。
17．C 为了鼓励自己，我们应该告诉自己，别人所说的不是“正确的”。

【语篇解读】 本文为记叙文。中国在过去是自行车的王国，而现在仍然有很多人喜欢骑自行车出行，因为这种交通方式方便、省钱。为了融入这种文化，“我”也买了一辆自行车。但是在回家途中，发现骑车过街是最大的问题，需要时间、技巧和一点儿运气。但是骑行经历让“我”觉得很愉快、很有趣。
31．B 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“For many，it's the easiest and cheapest way to travel today.”可知，自行车如今仍然很受欢迎，是因为它的便捷和经济。根据倒数第二段和倒数第三段的叙述可知，骑自行车并不安全，速度也不是很快，故A项和D项错误；文章虽然提到了自行车的颜色多种多样，但这并不是它受欢迎的原因，故C项错误。
32．C 细节理解题。根据第三段第一句话“Eager to be part of this aspect of Chinese culture...”可知，作者购买自行车是因为迫切地想融入中国的这种文化之中，故C项正确。作者在有了骑行经历之后才发现了其中的乐趣，故A项错误；文章并未提到作者购买自行车是为了作为交通工具或者提高骑行技术，故排除B项和D项。
33．B 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段的叙述可知，骑车过街是最大的问题，需要时间、技巧和运气，因此作者认为骑车过街非常困难。其余选项均与本段内容不符。
34．D 推理判断题。由最后一段可知，空气吹拂脸颊和头发的感觉很美妙，骑行时就像坐在了世界的顶端，骑自行车使作者觉得充满了活力。由此可判断出，作者觉得骑自行车很有乐趣，故D项正确。A项意为“作者喜欢炫耀自己的骑行技术”；B项意为“作者很讨厌骑行时的空气”；C项意为“作者被其他骑行人员赞扬了”，均与文章内容不符。
35．A 推理判断题。依据第二段as can good parenting和Make time for your kids each day推断本文对象主要是针对父母的。
36．D 细节理解题。依据第五段Too much information can cause more stress推断也不能盲目给孩子太多信息，无形中增加压力。
37．A 猜测词义题。上文提到孩子回家没有时间玩说明作业和活动太多，应减少活动量。
38．B 推理判断题。本文主要介绍孩子压力的来源及减压措施，因此B项是最佳答案，C项relax含义太广，脱离本文主旨。
39．D 作者意图题。本文主要是告诉大家在给野生动物拍照时应该注意的问题。
40．D 细节理解题。根据文章倒数第三段Make sure you are aware of the changes in behavior of the animal and its moods可知答案。
41．B 细节理解题。根据文章最后两段可知去给野生动物拍照前最好考虑到那里的天气情况，预先得到拍照许可，得到专家的支持；而文中第三段说到Do not feed the animals，可知不允许私自喂野生动物，所以也不必为其准备食物。
42．D 推理判断题。根据文章第四段的He failed to sell it in England at the Royal Academy when he finished it可推测，The Hay Wain这幅画当时在英国并不很受待见，故选D。
43．A 推理判断题。根据文章末段的Turner enjoyed painting ships near the Thames Estuary可推断，The Fighting Temeraire是关于一艘船的。
44．D 细节理解题。根据Cupid Complaining to Venus by Lucas Cranach the Elder这一段的this great painting shows Cupid complaining to Venus after having been stung (刺)by a bee可知，该画的内容是关于罗马神话故事的。
45．D 作者意图题。通读全文可知，本文主要向我们介绍了英国国家美术馆的四幅名画，故选D。
46．A 主旨大意题。文章的主题句往往位于文章的开头或是结尾，本文就在第一自然段。
47．C 细节理解题。文章最后一段，表明chevrons给驾车人的印象比他们开的实际的要快。而且路也变窄了，所以他们会放慢速度。
48．A 细节理解题。由文章第三段最后一句话，他们将在选择的道路上实验这种方法。
49．D 细节理解题。文章倒数第二段最后一句话“...within months as drivers become used to seeing the painted bar.”可知。
50．C 细节理解题。根据文章最后两段可以看出chevrons的优点在于效果长久。

What does an artist want to do？Every artist knows in his heart that he is saying something to the public.Not only does he want to say it well，but he wants it to be something which has not been said before.He hopes the public will listen and understand...he wants to teach，and he wants them to learn from him.
What visual (视觉)artists like painters want to teach is easy to make out but difficult to explain，because painters translate their experiences into shapes and colors，not words.They seem to feel that a certain selection of shapes and colors，out of the countless billions possible，is exceptionally (特殊地)interesting for them and worth showing to us.Without their work we should never have noticed these particular shapes and colors，or have felt the delight which they brought to the artist.
Most artists take shapes and colors from the world or nature and from human bodies in motion and repose (静态)，their choices show that these fields of the world are worth looking at，that they contain beautiful sights. Contemporary (当代的)artists might say that they only choose subjects that provide an interesting pattern，that there is nothing more in it.Yet even they do not choose entirely without reference to the character of their subjects.
If one painter chooses to paint a gangrenous (生疮的)leg and a lake in moonlight，each of them is directing our attention to a certain aspect of the world. Each painter is telling us something，showing us something and emphasizing something，all of which means that he is trying to teach us.
1．An artist hopes that the public will ________.
A．understand him and learn from him
B．notice only shapes and colors in his work
C．teach him something
D．believe what he says in his work
2．It is hard to explain what a painter is saying because ________.
A．most painters do not express themselves well
B．a painter uses unusual words and phrases
C．a painter uses shapes and colors instead of words
D．many painters do not say anything
3．Without the artist's work，the public might not ________.
A．notice particular shapes or colors
B．see the shapes and colors that express his experiences
C．feel his delight in shapes and colors
D．All of the above.
4．The writer says that contemporary art contains ________.
A．nothing but meaningless patterns
B．uninteresting aspects of the world
C．subjects chosen partly for their meaning
D．completely meaningless subjects

Having crossed mountains and plains，rivers and lakes，some of France's greatest works of art are now on show at China National Museum of Fine Arts.Fifty-one impressionists' (印象派画家)paintings are forming part of an exhibition in Beijing to kick_off the Year of France.
The show is being held in the capital between October 10 to November 27,2012.Then it will move on to Shanghai and Hong Kong.
“It is such a good opportunity to see the masters' work up close，”said Feng Jiajia，a Senior 3 student from the High School Affiliated to the Academy of Art and Design (中央工艺美院附中)．Although Feng is very busy with his studies at the moment he says he will definitely make time to see the exhibition.“I hope it will inspire me and help me with my own work，”he said.
Worth a total of US $ 600 million，the paintings are painted by French Impressionist masters，including Monet，Cezanne，Renior and Degas.
As an art style，impressionism was developed in France during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.Their work was a fresh and original way of painting.They look like the artist painting a scene after just a quick look at it.
Often painting outside，rather than in a studio，the artists observed nature more directly and tried to catch individual moments in time，especially the changing light of the sun.They avoided black and earth colors and as a result their work is often very bright and can also look like it is shining.
When they first appeared，the artists were criticized for not finishing their paintings and for being lazy.Critics (批评家)said the Impressionists were satisfied with just a few inexact brushstrokes (笔画)instead of completing a real painting.It was an art critic who first used the term “Impressionist” in a review of Monet's work Impression，Sunrise (1873)to satirize (讽刺)his loose，inexact manner of painting.
“Everyone discusses my art and pretends to understand，as if it were necessary to understand，when it is simply necessary to love，” said Monet.
Monet is the leading figure in the creation of Impressionism.He painted sunlit rivers and gardens with forceful brushstrokes and bright colors，in which objects lose their shape in the light. Monet's painting reached its height in later life with his paintings of Water Lilies (睡莲)．
5．What does the phrase “kick off” mean in the first paragraph?
A．Start. B．Finish.
C．Go on. D．Congratulate.
6．Why do the students want to see the exhibition?
A．Because they are free during that time.
B．Because they think it can inspire them and help them with their own work.
C．Because they can buy some of the famous paintings.
D．Because the paintings are better than the paintings drawn by our own artists.
7．Which is NOT true about the impressionists?
A．They began to paint this kind of paintings about 100 years ago.
B．They often paint outside，not in a studio.
C．Their paintings are very bright and the paintings are shining.
D．Their paintings are not completed at all.
8．What is the critics' real meaning of using “impressionist” to Monet?
A．He is very satisfied with Monet's painting.
B．He thinks Monet's painting is an inexact manner of painting.
C．He doesn't like Monet's painting at all.
D．He can't understand the theme of Monet's painting.
