Unfortunately, in the past, many reading improvement courses have concentrated too much on how our eyes move across the printed page. As a result of this misleading emphasis on the purely visual aspects of reading, numerous exercises have been devised to train the eyes to see more words at one fixation. For instance, in some exercises, words are flashed on to a screen for, say, a tenth or a twentieth of a second. One of the exercises has required students to fix their eyes on some central point, taking in the words on either side. Such word patterns are often constructed in the shape of rather steep pyramids so the reader takes in more and more words at each successive (连续的) fixation. All these exercises are very clever, but it’s one thing to improve a person’s ability to see words and quite another thing to improve his ability to read a text efficiently. Reading requires the ability to understand the relationship between words. Consequently (因此), for these reasons, many experts have now begun to question the usefulness of eye training, especially since any approach which trains a person to read isolated (孤立的) words and phrases would seem unlikely to help him in reading a continuous text.
小题1:The time of the recognition span can be affected by the following facts except ________ .
A.one’s familiarity with the text |
B.one’s purpose in reading |
C.the length of a group of words |
D.lighting and tiredness |
A.requires a reader to take in more words at each fixation |
B.requires a reader to see words more quickly |
C.demands an deeply-participating mind |
D.demands more mind than eyes |
A.The ability to see words is not needed when an efficient reading is conducted. |
B.The reading exercises mentioned can’t help to improve both the ability to see and to comprehend words. |
C.The reading exercises mentioned can’t help to improve an efficient reading. |
D.The reading exercises mentioned has done a great job to improve one’s ability to see words. |
A.The visual span is a word or a group of words we see each time. |
B.Many experts began to question the efficiency of eye training. |
C.The emphasis on the purely visual aspects is misleading. |
D.The eye training will help readers in reading a continuous text. |
A.critical (批评的) | B.neutral (中立的) |
C. pessimistic (悲观的 ) | D.optimistic |
答案
小题1:C
小题2:A
小题3:B
小题4:D
小题5:B
解析
小题1:C 细节题。根据文章第一段可知ABD都提及了,只有C没有涉及。
小题2:A 推理题。根据第二段All these exercises are very clever,可知作者认为第二段前半部分的提及的方法是很有好处的,A项正是第二段前半部分提及的方法。故A正确。
小题3:B 推理题。根据第二段前半句可知读者在有限的时间里可以记忆足够多的单词,但是并不一定能提高学生的阅读理解能力。故B正确。
小题4:D 细节题。根据第二段Consequently (因此), for these reasons, many experts have now begun to question the usefulness of eye training,可知人们对于这种方法持怀疑的态度了,故D正确。
小题5:B 作者在叙述这篇文章时,很公正的说明了一切没有任何的偏向,故B正确。

Homes have entire roofs made of solar materials, rooms are kept warm by wallpaper, and people go to and from work in electric and hydrogen( 氢) cars.
Oil is still being found in the North Sea, but it’s not now only used to keep aircraft flying. And a new 500---mile underwater link with Iceland has been built to catch heat from the hot springs. There’s still a role for king coal—but the black diamonds are now environment---friendly.
People will be able to import the electricity they need and export any excess(超过的量) they make through rooftop windmills(风车). New technology will store electricity better and provide it on demand. Heat exchangers will provide heating and hot water.
Harmful carbon dioxide waste is being piped offshore to St Fergus and from there into some of the remaining oil—producing fields to be stored safely without entering the atmosphere. Gas remains the preferred energy source of industry and is now shipped in liquid form. But hydrogen is imported through pipelines from France and from a geothermal (地热的) plant in Iceland.
Hydrogen—fuelled cars have become popular. Electric bikes are common in cities using the new urban two—wheel network. Electric vehicles have become common, and their performances have been improved because of the developments in electrical drive technology like high—temperature super conducting motors. Many people leave their vehicles in a giant park where they can be recharged from the national electrical system . Oilseed rape (油菜) is widely grown to fuel some motors .
小题1:What does the underlined phrase in paragraph 2 mean ?
A.The hot springs | B.Oil | C.Coal | D.Oil and coal |
A.Oil and coal |
B.Hydrogen and gas |
C.Electricity and gas |
D.Solar energy and wind |
A.windmills | B.electric bikes |
C.hydrogen—fuelled cars | D.aircraft |
A.life will be better and better |
B.the energy will become cleaner and cleaner |
C.people will use some new sources of energy |
D.people will pay more attention to the environment |
The study took ten years. The researchers gathered records from fishing businesses and governments around the world. The magazine Nature published the findings.
The scientists say the common method called longline fishing is especially damaging to populations of large fish. This method involves many fishing lines connected to one boat. These wires can be close to one-hundred kilometers long. They hold thousands of sharp metal hooks to catch fish.
Longline fishing is especially common in the Japanese fishing industry. Records showed that Japanese boats used to catch about ten fish for every one-hundred hooks. The study says longline fishing boats now might catch one fish per hundred hooks.
The scientists say industrial fishing can destroy groups of fish much faster than in the past. The study suggests that whole populations can disappear almost completely from new fishing areas within ten to fifteen years.
Ransom Myers of Dalhousie University in Nova Scotia led the study with Boris Worm of Dalhousie and the University of Kiel in Germany. Mister Worm says the destruction could lead to a complete re-organization of ocean life systems. Mister Meyers says the decreased number of large fish is not the only worry. He says even populations that are able to reproduce do not get the chance to live long enough to grow as big as their ancestors(祖先). He says not only are there fewer big fish, they are smaller than those of the past.
American government scientists say even with the best efforts to protect fish populations, decreases are to be expected.

Trees help other plants grow and help hold the soil in place. They keep the soil from blowing away. The leaves of trees on the ground keep rainwater from running off. Trees near farms protect growing plants from strong winds.
Once there were hundreds of farms in the southwestern United States. Then the farms turned into fields of dry dust. Trees might have saved these farms. But few trees grow in the dry southwest now.
Now we try to save trees. In many places, when a tree is cut down , a new tree is planted in its place . We do not want the land to die.

For several years, this group had been trying to get the city government to help bike riders. For example, they want the city to draw special lanes(车道) for bikes on some of the main streets, because when bike riders must use the same lanes as cars there are accidents. Bike for a Better City feels that if there were special lanes, more people would use bikes.
But no bike lanes have been drawn. Not everyone thinks it is a good idea—they say it will slow traffic. Some store owners on the main streets don’t like the idea—they say that if there is less traffic, they will have less business.
The city government has not yet decided what to do. It wants to keep everyone happy. On weekends, Central Park—the largest place open ground in New York— is closed to cars, and the roads may be used by bikes only.
小题1:In New York, a group of bike riders__________.
A.are keeping practicing for health |
B.have no cars of their own |
C.are complaining there are not enough buses |
D.are trying to settle the problem of air pollution |
A.bikes should be used instead of cars |
B.bike lanes should be drawn |
C.fewer buses or cars should be used |
D.the number of special lanes should be decreased |
A.they will make cars and buses run slowly |
B.they will make it easier for bike riders to go to parks |
C.they will make the city more beautiful |
D.they will prevent accidents |
