【2024高考训练】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。
In rainy London, always carry your “brolly”
BIG Ben，the Queen，a plate of ham and eggs-no, no, no. If you’re looking for a
symbol of Britain，only one thing passes the test-the umbrella.
Now, I know what you’re thinking—we have rain in China and we have umbrellas too. Certainly, I will never forget the way it rained when I lived in Beijing：the sweets became instant rivers and the sky flashed with lightning for hours on end. People dove for cover under bin bags, the shops were emptied of their plastic ponchos(斗篷)within seconds，and I found myself soaked(浸透)from head to foot, my poorly-chosen skirt and T-shirt now totally see-through. This would never have happened in Britain.
For one thing, during my year in Beijing, it only really rained at about 10 times.
But although we never get a Beijing-style washout in London, the drizzle(毛毛雨)that does fall is all but constant．Even when the sky is perfectly blue, you can be sure it's going to cloud over and start drizzling again within the hour.
And when it does, there is chaos. Trains stop, drains(下水道)block, and buses break down as if this was the first time the local authorities had seen this wet stuff coming out of the clouds.
So—as with so many things in the UK-it’s up to ordinary people to sort themselves out. No self-respecting Briton will ever leave home without his “brolly” --as the umbrella is affectionately(亲切地)known.
A brolly has hundreds of uses, even on rare rain-free days. A real gentleman of London will use his umbrella as a walking stick. A traditional game of cricket can be played using an umbrella as a hat. Nor do you ever have to be afraid of robbers-your umbrella doubles as a defensive weapon.
There is no brolly more British than my own．But it's not from London or Manchester or any where in the UK. It was a gift from my Chinese teacher—in Beijing．

阅读理解, 从给的四个选项 (A、B、C和D) 中, 选出最佳选项。
For more than nine days，for more than 60 miles，thousands of Beijingbound vehicles have come to an almost total stop on highways called the 6 and 110 that run from Inner Mongolia southeast to the nation's capital.Bai Xiaolong，a 30yearold truck driver，says it took him five days to make the 350mile journey from Inner Mongolia to Tianjin.He spent much of that time reading，textmessaging and sleeping rather than speeding up.“There was one day that I didn't move，not even an inch，”said Bai，an inhabitant of Jining in Inner Mongolia，a city at the western end of the traffic jam.
Chinese officials said that the congestion is mainly because of the maintenance(维护)projects that began in midAugust and are scheduled to be completed in midSeptember.Trucks carrying 8 tons or more of coal or fruit have been responsible for damaging the roadway，thus making the work necessary.
Drivers who often use the route know that heavy traffic has long been a fact of life.“The problem is really that there're too many cars and trucks and not enough lanes(车道)，”Bai said.“We drivers are used to this sort of thing happening.”
The two national freeways are heavily used by trucks carrying coal from the recently opened fields of Inner Mongolia to China's coastal cities.
The seemingly endless jam began on the 6 and spread to the 110，which runs parallel(平行的)，when officials sought to ease the traffic on the 6.
The Global Times，and Englishlanguage newspaper，said the jam had eased somewhat in the last two days，but inhabitants of the region say the congestion simply spilled out onto other roads.
The congestion has created an economy of its own.Vendors(小贩)sell boxed lunches，noodles and drinking water to the travelers，often at jackedup prices.And because of the longstanding problems along the highways，dozens of small hotels have appeared，attracting drivers who need a stop to catch more serious sleep.
1．According to the text，the 110 was mainly damaged by________.
A．too many carsB．bad weather
C．poor maintenanceD．heavy trucks
答案：D 细节理解题。根据文章第四段最后一句及第六段可知，导致这条国道毁坏的主要原因是那些重型卡车，故选D项。2．What can we infer from the text?
A．Bai Xiaolong was born in Tianjin.
B．The problem of traffic jams in China will be solved soon.
C．Chinese officials think it is necessary to build more lanes.
D．The local people don't think the congestion has eased.
答案：D 推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段中的inhabitants of the region say the congestion simply spilled out onto other roads可知，当地居民认为交通堵塞只是转移到了别的道路上，也就是说他们认为当地的交通拥堵并没有得到缓解。
3．The underlined word“jackedup”in the last paragraph probably means“________”．
A．high
B．right
C．special
D．low
答案：A 猜测词义题。因为堵车所以司机被困在那里，他们需要吃的和喝的，而一些商贩发现了这个商机，往往哄抬物价，司机们别无选择，由此可猜测出该词的意思为“很高的”。
4．What would be the best title of the passage?
A．The congestion creates an economy of its own
B．Traffic jam near Beijing stretches on for days
C．The traffic has improved in Beijing
D．Truck drivers in China live a hard life
答案：B 标题归纳题。本文报道了一次严重的交通堵塞。60多英里的道路变成了停车场，足足堵了九天多的时间，B作为标题最合适。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。Beijing Opera is also called Peking Opera.

When I first heard about geocaching（地理寻宝），1 was skeptical. But the more I thought about it, the more it seemed like an interesting idea.I at least wanted to try it once.
Having familiarized myself with how the game works,I set out in search of my first cache. My trip took me through a series of lively hutong（胡同）,past a number of small temples, and right into the courtyard of a quiet youth hotel.I spent several minutes looking around, but couldn't find anything. Just before l was about to give up,I spotted a colorful object in the crack of a wall. Could it be the hidden cache?
