七、阅读理解

A

导学号11610023

The American humorist,Will Rogers,used to say,“All I know is what I read in newspapers.” This was an exaggeration(夸张)for humorous purposes,but it is true that newspapers are an important source of information.Many people begin their day by reading the paper.In this way they learn what is going on in the world.Sometimes,however,they don’t have time to read the news carefully and must be satisfied with a quick look at the front page;at other times they may be in such a hurry that they have time only to glance at the headlines.

There are newspapers to satisfy every reader.In the big cities there are many types of papers,with several different editions every day.In small towns there are fewer newspapers and perhaps only one edition each day.In some areas the paper is printed weekly.

Most newspapers have several sections,especially on Sundays when the edition is larger than usual.There is,in addition to the front page with the most important news,the sports section,the society page,the comics,the amusement section,a business page,and the editorials.

Another type of publication which helps keep the population informed is the magazine.Some magazines are published weekly and others are put out monthly.There are news magazines,literary magazines,and magazines for such special interests as photography,sports,art,and music.Some are primarily for men,others for women,and there is a selection of children’s magazines,too.In the United States,there are publications for every taste and interest.

1.When Will Rogers said that all he knew was what he read in newspapers,his real purpose was　　　. 

A.to tell us that the real source of his knowledge was from newspapers

B.to show that newspapers helped to get him well informed

C.to show that he was very learned through reading newspapers

D.to tell us that he was interested in reading newspapers

答案:B

解析:推理判断题。由第一段前两句可以推出,当威尔·罗杰斯(Will Rogers)这样说的时候,其实是在说明报纸能为他提供很多信息。

2.The function of a newspaper is　　　. 

A.to help people to begin their day by reading it

B.to satisfy every reader

C.to get people well informed of all kinds of news

D.to provide its readers with many sections

答案:C

解析:细节理解题。由第一段中的“...but it is true that newspapers are an important source of information.”可知,报纸为人们提供了各种信息。

3.The purpose of headlines is　　　. 

A.to show the main idea of an article or a passage

B.to tell its readers how to entitle an article or a passage

C.a piece of news for people to glance at

D.to be printed in large letters above a story in a newspaper

答案:A

解析:推理判断题。由第一段最后一句“...at other times they may be in such a hurry that they have time only to glance at the headlines.”可知,有时人们比较匆忙,所以只能浏览一下标题。由此可推出标题可以很清楚地告诉读者文章的主要内容。

4.What’s the best title for this passage?

A.Newspapers Should Be Read Every Day

B.Different Newspapers Should Be Provided to Satisfy Their Readers

C.Many Types of Newspapers Must Be Published in Big Cities

B

A skinny young boy loved football with all his heart.But being half the size of the other boys,he got absolutely nowhere.This teenager lived alone with his father.Even though the son was always on the bench,his father was always standing with cheering.The father never missed a game.This young man was still the smallest of the class when he entered high school.But his father continued to encourage him.

When the young man went to college,he always put his heart and soul to every practice.This persistent young athlete never missed practice during his four years at college,but he never got to play in a game.

It was the end of his last football season,and as he entered the practice field,the coach met him with a telegram.The young man read the telegram and he became silent.He said to the coach,“My father died this morning.” The coach said,“Take the rest of the week off,son.”

The big game arrived and it was not going well.In the third quarter,when the team was ten points behind,a silent young man quietly said to the coach.“Coach,please let me play,” said the young man.Before long,the coach,the players and everyone in the stands could not believe their eyes.This little unknown,who had never played before was doing everything right.His team finally won.

He looked at the coach,with tears in his eyes,and said,“Well,you knew my dad died,but did you know that my dad was blind?” The young man said,“Dad came to all my games,but today was the first time he could see me play,and I wanted to show him I could do it!”

5.Which is the reason why the boy never got to play in a football game?

A.The boy was not good at football.

B.The coach didn’t like him.

C.His father always watched him.

D.The boy was shorter than other boys.

答案:D

解析:细节理解题。由第一段第二句可知,这个男孩只有其他男孩体型的一半;第一段倒数第二句可知,他到中学后还是最矮的。由此我们可推出,他不能打比赛,不是他球技不好,而是他个头太矮。

6.Why did the boy become silent after reading the telegram?

A.Because he was sorry to miss the practice.

B.Because he was sad to know his father’s death.

C.Because he had several days to have a rest.

D.Because he wanted to graduate from college.

答案:B

解析:细节理解题。由第三段中男孩的话可知,他爸爸去世了,因此他非常难过。

7.We can know from the passage that 　　　. 

A.the father never showed his love to his son

B.the coach didn’t like the boy

C.the boy proved to be a good player

D.the boy did disappoint his father

答案:C

解析:推理判断题。由第四段的内容可知,男孩上场后,表现得非常好。由此推出他是个不错的运动员。

8.Which of the following would be the best title?

A.Father’s Eyes　　　　　　B.A Determined Boy

C.Son’s Love D.A Good Game

答案:A

解析:主旨大意题。本文主要讲述一位盲人父亲,只要儿子有比赛,他一定去观看。等他去世后,他终于“看到”儿子在赛场上的精彩表现。因此本文用Father’s Eyes最能体现本文的主旨。
