People said,“What a shame.” But Bill said he had no __16__.For the rest of his life,he believed he had made the __17__ decision.Bill Havens knew what was most __18__ to him. Not everybody figures that out.And he acted on what he believed was best.Not everybody has the __19__ to say no to something he or she truly wants in order to say yes to something that truly __20__.But for Bill,it was the only way to peace;the only way to no regrets.
文章大意:Bill Havens即將參加1924年奧運(yùn)會的四人劃艇比賽,但為了即將分娩的妻子,他選擇放棄比賽,從而錯過了贏得奧運(yùn)金牌的機(jī)會。面對眾人的惋惜,他卻表示從未為此感到后悔。
1. A.neared B.started
C.ended D.narrowed
答案:A 根據(jù)下文可知,奧運(yùn)會臨近了,他的妻子也快要分娩了。near作動詞時意為“接近,臨近”。
2.A.practising B.competing
C.entering D.trying
答案:B 根據(jù)空后的in the Paris games可知,此處指他妻子分娩時他應(yīng)該正在巴黎奧運(yùn)會上比賽(compete)。
3.A.expensive B.heavy
C.large D.slow
答案:D 此處與空前的jet air liners形成對比,說明當(dāng)時只有速度很慢的(slow)船只可以到達(dá)巴黎。
4.A.hurry B.puzzle
C.dilemma D.trap
答案:C 是參加比賽,還是待在家里陪護(hù)妻子,他處于兩難的境地,dilemma“(進(jìn)退兩難的)窘境,困境”。
5.A.avoid B.risk
C.bear D.miss
答案:B 根據(jù)上文可知,如果他去巴黎參加奧運(yùn)比賽就要冒孩子出生時他不在妻子身邊的風(fēng)險。risk“冒……的危險”。
6.A.break B.keep
C.wander D.withdraw
答案:D 根據(jù)空后的remain with his family可知,他在考慮自己是否應(yīng)該從隊中退出,待在家里。withdraw from“退出,離開”。
7.A.complained B.preferred
C.insisted D.promised
答案:C 根據(jù)空后的that he go to Paris可知,這里用的是虛擬語氣,四個選項中只有insist符合這一要求,從語義上也可得此答案。
8.A.After all B.Above all
C.In all D.At all
答案:A 此處強(qiáng)調(diào)比賽對他的重要性,用“畢竟”來加強(qiáng)語氣。above all“首先,最重要的是”,in all“總共,合計”,at all“根本,究竟”,都不符合語義。
9.A.purpose B.struggle
C.opportunity D.dream
答案:D 根據(jù)語境可知,他之所以處于兩難境地,他的妻子之所以勸他去,都是因為參加奧運(yùn)比賽是他一生的夢想(dream)。
10.A.disappointed B.conflicted
C.confused D.encouraged
答案:B 根據(jù)上文可知,他處于進(jìn)退兩難的境地,內(nèi)心很矛盾。conflicted“沖突的,矛盾的”。
11.A.expected B.continued
C.decided D.stopped
答案:C 根據(jù)下文可知,此處表示經(jīng)過深思,他決定(decide)退出比賽,待在家里。
12.A.support B.watch
C.comfort D.a(chǎn)ppreciate
答案:A 他最終決定留在家里,這樣他就可以在孩子降生時支持、幫助妻子,故用support。
13.A.fed back B.pointed out
C.came out D.turned out
答案:D 最后的結(jié)果是,美國四人劃艇隊獲得了巴黎奧運(yùn)會的金牌。turn out“結(jié)果是”。
14.A.effortless B.sorry
C.late D.hard
答案:C 根據(jù)下一句中的She was so late可知,此處應(yīng)用late,表示他妻子分娩的時間比預(yù)產(chǎn)期晚。
15.A.expression B.birth
C.way D.break
答案:B 根據(jù)14空后的giving birth to their child可知此處應(yīng)用birth。
16.A.pains B.sufferings
C.defeats D.regrets
答案:D 由上一句可知,人們?yōu)樗械酵锵?,而But一詞說明他的想法和眾人不同,也就是說他不后悔。regret“后悔,遺憾”。

2016高考英語閱讀理解集訓(xùn)。
閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的四個選項(A、B、C、D)中,選出最佳選項。
I clearly remember the day when my little brother was born: January 1, 1994. One of my favorite family photos shows me lying with my mother in the hospital bed, happy but un-
aware of the small, sleeping baby in the background.
I stayed with my grandparents for the weekend of my brother’s birth, excited about my new brother but not yet aware of what having a little brother would mean. I didn’t truly realize what was going on until we were in the hospital room at Duke University----
coincidentally (碰巧地), the same room in which I had been born two years earlier.
When I looked at my brother for the first time, I felt a mixture of fear and interest. Little did know that small, pink creature would grow up to be one of my favorite people in the world.
In reality, though I am two years older than my brother, I am more often than not the real baby in the family. I am very lacking when it comes to common sense. Instructions constantly confuse me and I frequently find myself totally puzzled by things like knowing how to start the washing machine or manage the storage settings on my iPhone.
That’s where Gibson comes in. The poor kid has had to guide me through more tasks than I would care to admit, but he never complains. Though I should probably be told to figure it out myself, he always comes through.
I’m envious of his ability to readily answer the ever-present, “What do you want to do with your life?” question at family gatherings. “Be a doctor,” he says----a solid answer, completely opposite to my shaky one, “Well, I’m an English major, so...”
My brother truly is my best friend. No one understands me better, and there isn’t anyone else I would want to be stuck with in our family. I may not have a clear idea of where I’m headed, but he is stuck with me.
1. How did the author feel when he saw his brother for the first time?
A. Angry and sad. B. Excited and moved.
C. Curious and scared. D. Happy and interested.
2. What does the underlined sentence in the fourth paragraph mean?
A. My brother is the real baby in the family.
B. In fact, I seem to be less mature than my little brother.
C. My brother gets more love from the family than I do.
D. I am growing more slowly than my brother.
3. What does the brother often help the author do?
A. Help him deal with many daily tasks.
B. Help him with his studies.
C. Give him advice on how to choose a major.
D. Comfort him when he is in a bad mood.
4. What is the best title for this text?
A. My Strange Family Gatherings
B. The Real Baby in the Family
C. Stuck with Me----My Not-So-Little Little Brother
D. The Feeling of Having a Brother

閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的A.B.C和D項中,選出最佳選項。
A company planning to open the first hotel in space says it is on target to accept its first paying guests in 2012 despite critics questioning the investment and the length of time for the multibillion-dollar project.
The Barcelona-based architects of the Galactic Suite Space Resort say it will cost $4.4 million for a three-night stay at the hotel. This price also includes an eight-week training course on an island. During their stay, guests would see the sunrise 15 times a day and travel around the world every 80 minutes.Galactic Suite Ltd's CEO Xavier Claramunt says the project will put his company in a leading position of a new industry with a huge future ahead of it, and forecasts space travel will become common in the future. “It's very normal to think that your children, possibly within 15 years, could spend a weekend in space” he told Reuters Television.
A promising space tourism industry is beginning to take shape with construction in progress in New Mexico of Spaceport America, the world's first facility built specifically for passengers. British industrialist Richard Branson's space tours firm, Virgin Galactic, will use the facility to send tourists to space at a cost of $200,000 a ride.
Galactic Suite Ltd, set up in 2007, hopes to start its project with a single pod (分離艙) in orbit 280 miles above the earth. “It will take a day and a half to reach the pod, and the passengers will join it for three days,” Claramunt said. More than 200 people have expressed an interest in traveling to the space hotel and at least 43 people have already reserved it.
The numbers are similar for Virgin Galactic with 300 people already paid or signed up for the trip, but unlike Branson, Galactic Suite says they will use Russian rockets to transport their guests into space from a spaceport to be built on an island in the Caribbean. But critics have questioned the project, saying the length of time that will be used is unreasonable and also where the money is coming from to support the project.
1. What's Xavier Claramunt's attitude towards the space tourism industry?
A. Quite critical. B. Slightly worried.
C. Highly optimistic. D. Fully satisfied.
2. Virgin Galactic's guests will be transported into space by using rockets produced in________.
A. Spain B. America
C. Britain D. Russia
3. Which of the following is one of the critics' concerns about this project?
A. It is hard to ensure the safety of tourists.
B. There are many technical difficulties.
C. It will be a waste of resources.
D. It may lack support in money.
4. According to the passage, traveling to the space hotel ________.
A. will soon be possible for common people
B. has attracted the attention of some people
C. will make a large profit for the tourist industry
D. is considered an industry with a huge future by many people
5. What's the best title for the passage?
A. The world's first space hotel is to open in 2012.
B. The world's first commercial spaceport is being built.
C. Space tourism:a surprising new industry.
D. Space travel will become common in 15 years.
【參考答案】1—5、CBDBA
閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的A.B.C和D項中,選出最佳選項。
“Benjamin Franklin,” Walter Isaacson tells us at the beginning of his long (but never boring) new biography, “is the founding father who winks at us.” By that, Isaacson explains, he means Franklin is the most human—and most modern—of the men who shaped the American republic. We admire Washington, Jefferson and Adams, but they remain creatures of the 18th century. The man we encounter in “Benjamin Franklin”—funny, pragmatic and self-aware — seems like one of us, or at least someone we'd like to be.
Unlike Washington's cherry tree, Franklin's kite was real. His experiments with electricity made him one of the great scientists of his day. He was a middle-class businessman whose success as a printer and a journalist allowed him to retire at 42—and he devoted the rest of his life to his country. He was diplomat who persuaded the French to back the American Revolution and the author of the first great American autobiography. He was an excellent swimmer. There was almost nothing he couldn't do well, except write poetry. But what truly distinguished Franklin was his talent of being great and human at the same time. He owned slaves as a younger man, but in his last years became an abolitionist(廢奴主義者).When he fathered an illegitimate(私生的) son, he acknowledged his fatherhood and took the responsibility of raising the boy.
He seems strange today in the joy he took in compiling and creating all those self- improvement maxims he published in Poor Richard's Almanac(年鑒) — “early to bed, early to rise” and so on. Generations of lazy boys could have been happier without that. But he was no hypocrite(偽君子). Isaacson tells us Franklin practiced what he preached, and often laughed at himself while he did so.
By a happy accident, this is the second excellent biography of Franklin to appear in two years, after Edmund S.Morgan's inspiring “Benjamin Franklin.”
6. What type of literature does this passage belong to?
A. Research paper. B. Book review.
C. Biography. D. Short story.
7. The underlined word “maxims” in Paragraph 3 probably means________.
A. proverbs B. standards
C. requests D. orders
8. With the fact that Franklin shouldered the responsibilities of raising his illegitimate son, the author wants to prove that________.
A. Franklin had made a big fortune in his business before he got devoted to polities
B. Franklin might be the only parent to support the child at that time
C. Franklin was a great man who seems human to us
D. Franklin was improving his character when he got on in ages
9. The underlined word “himself” in Paragraph 3 refers to________.
A. Richard's Almanac B. Walter isaacson
C. anyone of the readers. D. Benjamin Franklin
10. In which part of a magazine can we most probably find this article?
A. Society and the Arts. B. Current Affairs.
C. Business Report. D. Advertisement.
