阅读理解。
3D cinema has been around since the early 20th century, but Hollywood brought the technology back in 2007. Many thought it was just a trick to make more money. But then came Avatar, the first mustsee movie in 3D.
But since Avatar, 3D cinema has struggled. In_2010,_several_3D_movies_bombed_at_the_box_office. And by late 2010, some people said the technology was dead. Of course, that wasn't the first time Hollywood had struggled with new technology. Although sound was added to movies in the late 1920s, it took audiences time to get used to the new technology. But in the end, sound and colour became the standard. James Cameron, director of Avatar, thinks we're going through the same process with 3D.
Some say cinemas are charging too much for 3D movies. In the US, seeing a 3D movie can cost up to $7.5 more than seeing it in 2D.Also, a recent study at California State University finds audiences don't actually enjoy movies in 3D any more than in 2D.Walter Murch, a famous movie editor, wrote in 2011 that human beings have no ability to process 3D images. Watching a 3D movie confuses our brain and this is why some people get headaches.
But James Cameron disagrees. In fact, he recently predicted that in five years all movies will be in 3D.And there are signs that 3D is fighting back. More 3D movies were put on the market in 2024 than ever before. The Lion King 3D recently made over US $150 million at the box office, and Cameron's Titanic 3D made even more.
Who knows what the future holds for 3D? Steven Spielberg recently said, “I'm hoping 3D gets to a point where people notice it. Because then it just becomes another tool and helps tell a story.”

阅读下列材料，从每题所给的选项中选出最佳选项。With all the wars, fighting and sadness in the world today, it's not only necessary, but also essential to have a good sense of humor just to help us get through each and every day of our lives. Putting a smile on someone's face when you know they are feeling down in the dump, makes me feel good and warms my heart.
How would you feel if you could not joke around with your wife, husband, child, co-worker, neighbor, close friends, or even just someone that you are standing in line with at your corner store? I am always saying things that make others smile or laugh, even if I don't know the person I'm joking around with. My Grandma always found humor in everything she did, even if it was the hardest job anyone could imagine. This not only relieves stress in any situation, but also is common courtesy(礼貌)to speak to others that are around you.
I know of a few people that don't have a funny bone in their bodies, as they say.Everyone around them could be rolling on the floor after hearing a great joke and they would sit there without the slightest smile on their face.They don't get the joke that makes others laugh. I am busting__a__gut while they just sit there, looking at me as if I were from outer space.How can people not get a really funny joke?
Laughing is essential to keep your stress levels under control. Without humor we would find ourselves with a lot of psychological problems, or on a lot of medications to keep us from going crazy. There is too much sadness in this present world. It drives people crazy. We all need to find a way to ignore the sadness and bring a little light into our lives. So, I believe our best medicine is to get together and tell some jokes and have some fun laughing together.

【2024高考训练题】阅读理解—主旨大意题、标题概括题。
Shami is a spy working for MI5, the British domestic security service. Recently he was interviewed by the BBC for the now TV documentary series. Modern Spies.
Shami isn't his real name and in the interview his face was in shadow, so you couldn't identify him, but he spoke about his job and what motivates him.
The interviewer asked Shami if he has any hesitation about spying on other people. “No, not at all,” replied Shami. “I know why I'm doing it . I'm trying to prebent something major occurring which could lead to loss of life . That's my biggest motivation.”
Asked how he felt when he was doing a spying activity, Shami replied,” Excited. You feel a lot of pressure, but you understand the task in hand and how serious it is. You are thinking about potential dangers which might be a threat to yourself.” Shami admitted that his biggest fear was missing a vital piece of information, something that would go on to cause loss of life.
Shami said that there were some other intelligence officers working at MI5's London headquarters. Spies like him are out on the ground while the others' job is to analyze intelligence from a variety of different sources. He pointed out that vital pieces come from human sources of agents from within suspected terrorist organizations—a standard plotline in Hollywood movies, but he thought 007 was pure fantasy.” The key element of the James Bond myth is that we are some kind of illegal organization—that's not the case. And I certainly wouldn't be the kind of lone wolf in the films.”
Motivates Shami to carry out his job.
To spy on people
To prevent loss of life
To analyze important information
To get excitement from danger
It can be learned from the passage that
Shami once missed some important information
Shami is rarely stressed out when dong a task
The film 007 was a reflection of Shami's real life
MI5 is a legal organization
The underlined sentence in the last paragraph probably means
Shami never felt lonely because he could see films
Shami was not the leading actor in the film
Shami worked on a team rather than single-handedly
Shami needed the help of a wolf for his job
What can be the best title for the text?
A Real-Life Spy
B. Modern Spies
C. Spy Movies
D. Comparison on Spies
语篇解读
本文是篇记叙文。主要讲述的是现实生活中的一个间谍的故事。
B 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“I know why I'm doing it I'm trying to prevent something major occurring which could lead to loss of life. That's my biggest motivation.”可知B项正确。
D 推理判断题。根据最后一段倒数第二句可知，D项符合文意
C 句意理解题。 根据最后一段可知，不同的间谍分工不同：有的负责在总部分析情报，有的则在外执行任务。任务的完成是大家共同合作的结果，而不是像电影里詹姆斯·邦德一样单枪匹马完成任务。
A 标题概括题。通读全文可知，本文主要讲述的是现实生活中的一个间谍，而非大多数人印象中的电影里的间谍。故选A项最适合本文的标题。
