2022年高考英语完形填空和阅读理解选练10阅读理解。On Friday June 21st，xx，the folks at the annual Sonoma County Fair in California celebrated the 25th anniversary of a rather unusual contestone that crowns the “Worlds Ugliest Dog”！ And while in most settings a title like this would be considered insulting (无礼的) here，it is liked by both the dog owners who e from all over the world and the visitors that e to cheer the contestants.To mark this special anniversary，this years fair that was themed “Dog Days of Summer” featured among other things，including an exhibit featuring the contestants and winners from the last 25 years.As for the winner? Unlike last year，when he had flown in all the way from London，England，this years title winner was Chico，California resident Walle，who beat out 29 other equally “ugly contestants”. The refreshing part was that Walle，who happened to be a last minute entrant(参赛者)，is not a nearly hairless，Chinese Crested Chihuahua or a mix of both breeds，which have been dominating the contest for many years now. Instead，he is a mutt mixpart beagle，part basset and part boxer.The fouryearold impressed the judges with his giant head and humped back. As one of them put it，he looked as though he had been photoshopped with pieces from various dogs and maybe a few other animals. It exactly represents the kind of natural “ugliness” they were looking for!Along with the title，the first time entrant received a cash prize of $1，500 as well as scheduled appearances on NBCs weekend Today on Sunday，the Today Show on Monday and the Jimmy Kimmel Show on Wednesday.Though the petition may seem unbelievable to some people，it is held just for fun and organized by an animal psychiatrist who not only vets the dogs before they enter the petition to ensure they are healthy，but also has a “pet” talk with them to ensure they are also happy. It is also important to remember all the contestants e from homes where they are loved because of their rather unusual looks. After all，beauty is in the eye of the beholder!【解题导语】在2013年6月21日举行的世界上最丑的狗的比赛上，一条三个品种的杂交狗赢得了“世界上最丑的狗”这个头衔。1What makes this years winner of the contest special?AThat it is a nearly hairless dog.BThat it is a mix of both breeds.CThat it is a mix of several breeds.DThat has constantly won the contest.答案C细节理解题。根据第三段的Instead，he is a mutt mixpart beagle，part basset and part boxer.可知这条狗的特别之处在于是三个品种的杂交狗。2Paragraph 4 mainly tells us that the dog _Ais very popular with dog loversBwas produced mainly for the contestCwasnt thought to be ugly by all the judgesDreally deserves the title of the “Worlds Ugliest Dog”答案D推理判断题。根据第四段的he looked as though.natural “ugliness” they were looking for! 可知这条狗真够格拥有“世界上最丑的狗”这个头衔。3What will the dog do after winning the contest?AIt will go to some TV shows.BIt will appear in some movies.CIt will receive a prize of $15，000.DIt will take part in some other contests.答案A细节理解题。根据第五段的as well as scheduled.on Wednesday可知这条狗赢得比赛后会去参加几个电视节目。41Whats the purpose of holding the contest?ATo attract more attention to dogs.BTo tell people how to choose dogs.CTo insult the ugliest dogs in the world.DTo make dog owners and people have fun.答案D细节理解题。根据末段的it is held just for fun可知这个比赛纯粹是为了好玩，故选D。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。Today, the world is rapidly urbanizingWith half of the world population expected to live in cities by the early part of the 21st century, the Shanghai xx World Expos focus on a better city bears profound meaningWhat might future cities look like 28 years from now?
