  2024高考英语二轮阅读理解一百六十集选练(113)

  阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中选出最佳选项。

  I lost my sight when I was four years old by falling off a box car in a freight yard in Atlantic City and landing on my head.Now I am thirty two.I can slightly remember the brightness of sunshine and what color red is.It would be wonderful to see again, but a calamity(灾难) can do strange things to people.It occurred to me the other day that I might not have come to love life as I do if I hadn't been blind.I believe in life now.I am not so sure that I would have believed in it so deeply, otherwise.I don't mean that I would prefer to go without my eyes.I simply mean that the loss of them made me appreciate the more what I had left.

  The hardest lesson I had to learn was to believe in myself.That was basic.If I hadn't been able to do that, I would have collapsed and become a chair rocker on the front porch for the rest of my life.When I say belief in myself I am not talking about simply the kind of self confidence that helps me down an unfamiliar staircase alone.That is part of it.But I mean something bigger than that: an assurance that I am, despite imperfections, a real, positive person; that somewhere in the sweeping, intricate(错综复杂的) pattern of people there is a special place where I can make myself fit.

  It took me years to discover and strengthen this assurance.It had to start with the simplest things.Once a man gave me an indoor baseball.I thought he was making fun of me and I was hurt."I can't use this." I said."Take it with you," he urged me, "and roll it around." The words stuck in my head."Roll it around! "By rolling the ball I could hear where it went.This gave me an idea how to achieve a goal I had thought impossible: playing baseball.At Philadelphia's Overbrook School for the Blind I invented a successful variation of baseball.We called it ground ball.

  All my life I have set ahead of me a series of goals and then tried to reach them, one at a time.I had to learn my limitations.It was no good trying for something that I knew at the start was wildly out of reach because that only invited the bitterness of failure.I would fail sometimes anyway but on the average I made progress.

  【阅读理解】人物故事类

  阅读下列四篇短文,从每小题后所给的A,B,C或D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。

  "My aunt will come down soon, Mr. Nuttel," said a young lady of fifteen.

  Framton Nuttel attempted to say something to please the niece. Privately he doubted whether this visit would do much towards helping with his nerve problem.

  "I know how it will be," his sister had said, "People there are nice. I shall just give you letters of introduction to all the people I know there." Framton wondered whether Mrs. Sappleton, the lady to whom he was presenting one of the letters of introduction came into the nice division.

  "Do you know many of the people round here?" asked the niece.

  "Hardly a soul," said Framton.

  "Then you know practically nothing about my aunt. Her great tragedy(悲剧) happened just three years ago," said the child, “Out through that window, her husband and her two young brothers went off for their day's shooting. They never came back. Poor aunt always thinks that they will come back someday. She has often told me about Ronnie, her youngest brother, singing ‘Bertie, why do you bound?"'

  At this time, Mrs. Sappleton came in, greeting, “I hope you don't mind the open window." She talked on cheerfully about the shooting. To Framton it was all purely horrible. He made a desperate but only partially successful effort to turn the talk on to a less scary topic. "The doctors agree in ordering me complete rest, and an absence of mental excitement." he announced, "On the matter of diet they are not so much in agreement," he continued.

  "No?" said Mrs. Sappleton, in a voice which only replaced a yawn at the last moment. "Here they are at last!" she suddenly cried. In the deepening dusk out came three figures with a tired brown spaniel(猎犬). And then a young voice rang out of the dusk, "I said, Bertie, why do you bound?"

  Framton grabbed wildly at his stick and hat, without a word of goodbye, and rushed out of sight.

  “What is up?" Mrs. Sappleton was confused.

  "I expect it was the spaniel," said the niece calmly, "He told me that he was once hunted into a tomb by a pack of dogs, and had to spend the night in a newly dug tomb with the creatures barking just above him. Enough to make anyone lose their nerve."

  Romance at short notice was her specialty.

  1. According to the passage, we learn that Mrs. Sappleton .

  A. felt sorrow about the shootingB. got along well with Ronnie

  C. listened carefully to FramtonD. trusted and spoiled her niece

  2. As for Framton's nerve problem, his doctors .

  A. recommended him to go off for a shooting

  B. suggested to him a rest cure in the countryside

  C. advised him to keep his mind off excitement

  D. agreed on the treatment of his diet

  3. Which word can best describe Framton?

  A. Cheerful.B. Brave.C. Fragile.D. Wise.

  4. What can be inferred about the niece from the last sentence?

  A. She was good at making up a story in a short time.

  B. She showed a strong love for scary stories.

  C. She fell in love with Framton in no time.

  D. She took no notice of strange visitors.

  2024高考训练题。阅读理解阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。【题文】C

  Pilling a cat can be a “terrible” experience. Cats don’t want something pushed down their throats, and they’ll fight with all their strength to prevent it. In fact, it’s amazing how powerful their small bodies can be.

  The easiest way of pilling a cat is to press the pill into powder. Then mix the powder with a small amount of wet food. If your cat usually eats dry food, she will probably view the wet food as a treat and eat it up.

  If your cat won’t eat the wet food that contains the pill or if she is too ill to eat, you can get a “pill gun”. There are some basic instructions. Getting your cat’s mouth to open is going to be the most difficult part. First, be sure the pill is in a handy place. Then you can put your cat on a bookshelf with her bottom in a corner or you can put her on your lap firmly tied. Have your cat facing to the right if you’re right-handed. With your left hand, hold your cat at the cheekbones, putting your palm at the top of her head. Keeping your finger off the trigger (扳机), with your right hand, insert the pill gun until the pill is positioned over the tongue and open throat. Be sure to give your cat a treat directly after giving the pill.

  If you don’t feel comfortable using a pill gun, you can try giving the pill by hand. Push your cat’s head backwards just far enough so that her nose is pointing towards the ceiling. At this point, most cats will slightly open their mouths. With the little finger or ring finger of the hand holding the pill, open the bottom jaw a little more. You may need to hold her top jaw with your other hand while doing this. Aim straight and lightly throw the pill or drop it. Most cats will then swallow the pill.

  1. Pilling a cat can be a terrible experience because cats ______.

  A. are amazingly powerful and dangerous

  B. may fight with all their strength against pills

  C. refuse something pressed down their throats

  D. are difficult to treat once they’ve got ill

  2. What can be inferred according to the second paragraph?

  A. Wet food with medicine is usually a treat to cats.

  B. Cats used to dry food must reject wet food.

  C. The easiest pilling is to press the pill into powder.

  D. Cats are probably interested in something new.

  3. Using a “pill gun”, you had better hold your cat ______ if you’re left-handed.

  A. facing to the right

  B. with your right hand

  C. at the head

  D. on your lap firmly

  4. A cat probably opens its mouth naturally when ______.

  A. its nose is straight upwards

  B. it is touched by fingers

  C. its head is turning around

  D. it is served with its favorite pills
