湖北宣恩县2017高考英语阅读理解一轮选练2016高考模拟题。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。Janelle was running late for work, so she just had time for a quick look at herself in themirror as she was going out. What she saw there made her stop dead in her tracks.Being a busy college student just one year removed from her teenage years, she wasnt exactly obsessive-compulsive(有强迫观念和行为的) about the neatness of her clothes. But her boss at the restaurant where she works saw things a little differently. He had recently lectured the entire staff on the importance of appearance, and had specifically mentioned the need for servers to wear clean, unwrinkled blouses. As an assistant manager, Janelle felt it was important to set an example for the other employees. But if she stopped to iron the blouse normally, she would be late and work without delay was an area of even greater concern to her boss.So she grabbed her iron and plugged it in and set it for low heat. Carefully holding her blouse away from her body, she continued to iron it while she was wearing it. It seemed like a logical answer to an urgent problem.And it seemed to be working until Janelle tried to iron the collar and accidentally ironed her neck by mistake. Then it suddenly seemed like a really stupid idea and a really painful one as well. It took more time to treat her burn than it would have taken to iron her shirt properly. And she spent a miserable shift dealing with the pain of the burn. Weve all been there, havent we? For me it was cutting my own hair. For a former roommate it was trying to pull his own wisdom teeth. For another college acquaintance, it was trying to change the oil in his car while the motor was still running.“Theres a right way and a wrong way of doing things,” Dad used to tell me whenever Id spoil the look of our yard by trying out a faster, easier and more creative way of pulling weeds or edging the lawn. “If a thing is worth doing,” he said, “its worth doing it right.” Theres a reason why certain things are done in certain ways. Those old, boring, predictable ways work.1Jenelle found in the mirror that _.Athere were stains on her blouse Bher blouse was wrinkledCshe wore heavy makeup Dshe put on a wrong blouse2Its learned from Paragraph 2 that_.AJenelle had no sense of responsibility at workBJenelle failed to set an example for employees in daily workCJenelle didnt care about the neatness of her clothes at all DJenelles boss put doing something on time above appearance3What can we infer from the fifth paragraph?AWe all have done loads of things like Janelle.BWe are careful enough in daily life.CWe all have done something creative.DWe all have tried to iron clothes while we are wearing them.4What does the author mainly want to tell readers in the last paragraph ?ABe creative. BA bad beginning makes a bad ending.CStick to old ways. DDo things right.参考答案14、BDAD 阅读理解。In the kitchen of my mothers houses there has always been a wooden stand（木架）with a small notepad（记事本）and a hole for a pencil. Im looking for paper on which to note down the name of a book I am recommending to my mother. Over forty years since my earliest memories of the kitchen pad and pencil, five houses later, the current paper and pencil look the same as they always did. Surely it cant be the same pencil? The pad is more modern, but the wooden stand is definitely the original one. “Im just amazed you still have the same stand for holding the pad and pencil after all these years.” I say to her, walking bank into the living-room with a sheet of paper and the pencil. “You still use a pencil. Cant you afford a pen?” My mother replies a little sharply. “It works perfectly well. Ive always kept the stand in the kitchen. I never knew when I might want to note down an idea, and I was always in the kitchen in these days.” Immediately I can picture her, hair wild, blue housecoat covered in flour, a wooden spoon in one hand, the pencil in the other, her mouth moving silently. My mother smiles and says, “One day I was cooking and watching baby Pauline, and I had a brilliant thought, but the stand was empty. One of the children must have taken the paper. So I just picked up the breadboard and wrote it all down on the back. It turned out to be a real breakthrough for solving the mathematical problem I was working on.” This storywhich happened before I was bornreminds me how extraordinary my mother was, and is, as a gifted mathematician. I feel embarrassed that I complain about not having enough child-free time to work. Later, when my mother is in the bathroom, I go into her kitchen and turn over the breadboards. Sure enough, on the back of the smallest one, are some penciled marks I recognize as mathematics. Those symbols have traveled unaffected through fifty years, rooted in the soil of a cheap wooden breadboard, invisible（看不到的）exhibits at every meal.( ) 1. Why has the authors mother always kept the notepad and pencil in the kitchen?A. To leave messages. B. To list her everyday tasks.C. To note down maths problems. D. To write down a flash of inspiration. ( ) 2. What is the authors original opinion about the wooden stand? A. It has great value for the family. B. It needs to be replaced by a better one. C. It brings her back to her lonely childhood. D .It should be passed on to the next generation. ( ) 3. The author feels embarrassed for _ A. blaming her mother wrongly. B. giving her mother a lot of trouble. C. not making good use of time as her mother did. D. not making any breakthrough in her field.( ) 4. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A .The mother is successful in her career. B. The family members like traveling. C. The author had little time to play when young. D. The marks on the breadboard have disappeared. ( ) 5. In the authors mind ,her mother is_A. strange in behavior. B. keen on her research. C. fond of collecting old things. D. careless about her appearance.本篇文章为记叙文。主要讲述“我”的母亲总是习惯实用厨房里的记事本和铅笔。50年过去了，换了 5 所房子，可母亲的习惯没有改变，却更热衷于此。我突然意识到母亲是位天才的数学家。46.

We live on a farmland, in the winter especially, we were quite cut off from the outside world. As soon as I left school, I packed my bags and moved to the capital. However, I soon discovered that my life has its problems too. One big disadvantage is money. It costs so much to go out, not to mention basics like food and housing. Another disadvantage is pollution. I suffer from asthma(哮喘), and at times the air is so bad that I am afraid to go outside. Then there is the problem of traveling round. Although I have a car, I seldom use it because of the traffic jams. One choice is to go by bicycle, but that can be quite dangerous. Of course there are advantages. First, there is so much to do in the city, whatever your tastes in culture or entertainment(娱乐). Besides, there are wonderful jobs and greater chances of moving to a more important job or position. Finally, if you like shopping, the variety of goods is very surprisingand, what is more, shops are often only a short walk away.Is life better then, in the city? Perhaps it is, when you are in your teens or twenties. However, as you get older, and especially if you have small children, the peace of the countryside may seem preferable. I certainly hope to move back there soon.13. Which of the following is TRUE about the writer? A. He is very old now B. He lives in the city now C. He prefers driving a car D. He is in good health14. In the passage, the writer tries to _ .

Is life better in the city than in the countryside? A. Yes, it is. B. No, it isnt. C. It is when you are young but not so when you are old. D. The text doesnt tell us.参考答案1315 BAC 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。One day while shopping in a small town in southern California, it was my misfortune to be approached by a clerkHe seemed most unfriendly and not at all concerned about my intended purchaseI bought nothing, and marched angrily out of the storeOn the outside was a dark-skinned young man in his early twentiesHis expressive brown eyes met and held mine, and in the next instant a beautiful, bright smile covered his faceI gave in immediatelyThe power of that broad smile dissolved all bitterness within me, and I felt the muscles in my own face happily respondingBeautiful day, isnt it?
