英语专项训练任务型阅读系列一 篇2

Nowadays, studying abroad gains popularity in China. Many rich parents would rather send their children abroad to receive education than let them be educated in China.

As every coin had two sides, studying abroad is not an exception. There are advantages for people to attend school abroad. In the first place, he can use the foreign language in his daily life so that his ability in the second language may be greatly improved, as it is obvious that there is no other chance to improve second language than living in the country where it is spoken. While studying in a foreign country, he will most likely meet many others from overseas and it is possible to make friends from all over the world. This is not only exciting on the social level, but could lead to important overseas contacts in his career as well. He can get familiar with the latest knowledge in science and make use of the first-rate facilities(设备) available. In this way, there is every chance that he is able to widen his horizon(眼界) and broaden hid mind.

Of course, attending schools abroad may bring about a series of problems. The most serious problem is language barrier(障碍). Most of the students who go abroad do not have enough skills in the language spoken there. As a result, on arriving there, they will find it difficult to understand what the teachers say. Besides, for lack of knowledge of the customs of the local people, they may constantly run into trouble in dealing with various situations．

Therefore, given an opportunity to attend a school abroad, one must consider both sides of the factors carefully before making up his mind.

finger.

In a few seconds, the pain stopped . There was no blister. There was only a little red spot. The “magic” plant was an aloe.

A

Agricultural scientists in the United States have put a copy of a human gene into pigs, sheep and rabbits. They report that the gene seems to be working in some of the animals. The gene that the scientists are using controls the production of human growth hormone (荷尔蒙)，a chemical necessary for growth.

They are using the human gene because it has been more closely studied than any other growth gene. The scientists hope their work will someday result in food animals that grow faster and larger or produce more milk or eggs. The research is being done by scientists at the University of Pennsylvania, the University of Washington and the United States Department of agriculture. The scientists put copies of human growth hormone into the fertilized eggs of the female animals. When baby animals were born from the eggs, the scientists looked for evidence that the human gene had become part of the animal’s genetic material. They examined almost 200 baby pigs and found the gene in 20 of them. They found it in 28 of more than 200 rabbits, but it was in only one of 73 baby sheep. The scientists said they found the human growth chemical produced by the gene in some of the animals.

It is too soon to know if the animals will pass the transplanted human growth gene to their young, proving that the gene has become permanent (永久的) part of their genetic material. Similar research with mice two years ago produced a new kind of mouse that is two times larger than normal. The scientists hope the same thing will happen with farm animals. They say their research will permit other gene transplants that can give animals defense against diseases, or let them live in very hot or very cold places. American farmers already use chemical hormones to increase the size of cattle and the amount of milk they produce. But they have to put the hormones into the cows. If the gene transplants are fully successful, the cow’s body will produce growth hormone.

21. Where did the scientists put copies of human growth hormone into?

A. All kinds of animals.

B. Pigs, sheep and dogs.

C. Both male and female animals.

D. The fertilized eggs of the pigs, sheep and rabbits.

22. What did the scientists expect from their research?

高二英语阅读专项 篇5

A

No poem should ever be discussed or “analyzed”, until it has been read aloud by someone, teacher or student.Better still, perhaps, is the practice of reading it twice, once at the beginning of the discussion and once at the end, so the sound of the poem is the last thing one hears of it.All discussions of poetry are, in fact, preparations for reading it aloud, and the reading of the poem is, finally, the most telling “interpretation” of it, suggesting tone, rhythm, and meaning all at once.Hearing a poet read the work in his or her own voice, on records or on film, is obviously a special reward.But even those aids to teaching can not replace the student and teacher reading it or, best of all, reciting it.I have come to think, in fact, that time spent reading a poem aloud is much more important than “analyzing” it, if there isn’t time for both.I think one of our goals as teachers of English is to have students love poetry.Poetry is “ a criticism of life”, and “ a heightening(提升)of life”.It is “an approach to the truth of feeling”, and it “can save your life”.It also deserves a place in the teaching of language and literature more central than it presently occupies.I am not saying that every English teacher must teach poetry.Those who don’t like it should not be forced to put that dislike on anyone else.But those who do teach poetry must keep in mind a few things about its essential nature, about its sound as well as its sense, and they must make room in the classroom for hearing poetry as well as thinking about it.1.To have a better understanding of a poem, one should________.A.discuss it with othersB.analyze it by oneself

C.copy it down in a notebookD.practise reading it aloud

2.Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a function of poetry?

A.Extending your lifeB.Saving your life

C.Criticizing lifeD.Heightening life

3.According to the writer, one of the purposes of teaching English is to get students________.A.to understand life.B.to enjoy poetry.C.to become teachers.D.to become poets

4.What does the last sentence in the third paragraph imply?

A.More stress should be laid on the teaching of poetry.B.Poetry is more important than any other subject.C.One cannot enjoy life fully without an understanding of poetry

D.Poetry is the foundation of all language and literature courses

5.The phrase “make room” in the last paragraph could be best replaced by

A.“build a booth”B.“provide equipment”

C.“leave a certain amount of time”D.“set aside enough space”

B

Reading to oneself is a modern activity which was almost unknown to the learned in the early days of the history, while during the fifteenth century the term “reading” undoubtedly meant reading aloud.Only during the nineteenth century did silent reading become popular.One should be careful, however, of supposing that silent reading came about simply because reading aloud is distraction（分散注意力）to others.Examination of reasons connected with the historical development of silent reading shows that it became the usual mode of reading for most adult reading tasks mainly because the tasks themselves changed in character.The last century saw a gradual increase in literacy（读写能力）and thus in the number of readers.As readers increased, so the number of listeners dropped, and thus there was some reduction in the need to read aloud.As reading for the benefit of listeners grew less common, so came the popularity of reading as a private activity in such public places as libraries, trains and offices, where reading aloud would disturb other readers in a way.Towards the end of the century there was still heated argument over whether books should be used for information or treated respectfully, and over whether the reading of material such as newspapers was in some way mentally weakening.Indeed this argument remains with us still in education.However, whatever its advantages are, the old shared literacy culture had gone and was replaced by the printed mass media on the one hand and by books and magazines for a specialized readership on the other.By the end of t he century students were being advised to have some new ideas of books and to use skills in reading them which were not proper, if not impossible, for the oral reader.The social, cultural, and technological developments in the century had greatly changed what the term

“reading” referred to.6.Why was reading aloud common before the nineteenth century?

A.Because silent reading had not been discovered.B.Because there were few places for private reading.C.Because few people could read for themselves.D.Because people depended on reading for enjoyment.7.The development of silent reading during the nineteenth century showed_______.A.a change in the position of literate people

B.a change in the nature of reading

C.an increase in the number of books

D.an increase in the average age of readers

8.Educationalists are still arguing about__________.A.the importance of silent reading

B.the amount of information provided by books and newspapers

C.the effects of reading on health

D.the value of different types of reading material

9.What is the writer of this passage attempting to do?

A.To explain how present day reading habits developed.B.To change people’s way to read.C.To show how reading methods have improved.D.To encourage the growth of reading.C

Sherlock Holmes is considered by many people as the greatest detective in fictional literature.He is, in fact, more famous than his own creator, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.In the popular series of stories, Holmes is described as “tall and lean, pope-smoking, always in his cape and speaks in a splendid manner”.Doyle gave Holmes’ address as 221-B Baker Street, London, and to this day some visitors to London still go to Baker Street to search for 221-B.Of course, there never was really any such address.Holmes’ flat was supposed to be shared by the lovable, but sometimes clumsy Doctor Watson who went around with Holmes trying to solve crimes before Holmes did.Poor Dr Watson lost out to Holmes every time.Doyle gave Holmes a masterly skill of deduction---the ability to come up with interesting conclusion from the simplest clues found at the scene of a crime.Doyle said that the description of Holmes was modeled on one of his lecturers at Edinburgh University where he studied medicine.That man was Dr Joseph Bell.Sherlock Holmes first appeared in Doyle’s A Study in Scarlet published in 1887.Holmes was so loved by all that when his author killed him off in one of his stories, readers wrote in anger to complain.They refused to allow Holmes to die!Holmes was brought back to “life” and appeared in further stories.The stories of Sherlock Holmes have been reprinted many times ever since then.Today we can watch Holmes at work on cinema and television screens as well as on stage.10.Sherlock Holmes was________.A.the greatest detective who ever lived

B.Dr Joseph Bell

C.Arthur Conan Doyle

D.only a character made up by Arthur Conan Dolye

11.Dr Watson was________.A.tall and learn

B.lovable but always clumsy

C.lovable but sometimes clumsy

D.lovable and never clumsy

12.Holmes was supposed to have lived_______.A.with Dr WatsonB.with Dr Joseph Bell

C.with the greatest detectiveD.with Doyle

13.Doyle made up the description of Holmes_______.A.from his own imagination

B.based on a famous London doctor

C.based on Dr Joseph Bell at Edinburgh University

D.based on a model of Holmes

答案与解析

1.D 根据第一段内容可知答案。

2.AB、C、D三个选项在文章中第三段都提到了。

3.B 根据文章中第三段第二句话I think one of our goals as teachers of English is to have students love poetry.可知答案。

4.A 结合本段主题及It also deserves a place …more central than it presently occupies.可知答案。

5.C 根据第三段第一句话I have come to think, in fact, that time spent reading a poem aloud is much more important than “analyzing” it, if there isn’t time for both.及in the classroom(在课堂上)可知答案。

6.C从文中第三段的前两句可以看出。

7.B 从最后一段可找到答案。

8.D 文中第四段的第一句话作了明确说明。

9.A 作者写此文的目的正是向我们说明现代的阅读习惯是如何变化的、发展的。

10.D 从第一段前两句话可知：Holmes(福尔摩斯）被公认为是虚构文学中最伟大的侦探家，事实上他比他的创作者Arthur Conan Doyle 先生还出名，由此可知Holmes是Arthur Conan Doyle 笔下虚构的一个人物形象。

11.B 由第一段倒数第二句话可知：福尔摩斯和很可爱但有时难免笨拙的华伦医生住在一起。华伦医生伴随福尔摩斯左右并试图在福尔摩斯之前破案，但可怜的他每次都输给福尔摩斯。由此可知答案。

12.A 由第一段倒数第二句可知在小说中Holmes即福尔摩斯被安排和华伦医生住在一起，故选A。

高二英语阅读专项 篇6

一、 小说的相关特点

要研究小说这一特殊的文学体裁在语言学和心理语言学两个层面上对二语阅读者的影响,就有必要探讨一下小说与我们此次研究相关的几个固有特征。牛津英语字典,韦氏字典对“小说”的定义中,两个特点很显著:

(一)长散文

这两个限定词决定了一方面小说含有大量的单词,从句以及段落群,另一方面小说的语篇要更接近日常生活用语。

(二)记叙

由于小说通常都是叙事—一个通过一系列相关联的时间来描写人的经历的故事,这里我们选择两个重要的元素:人物及情节。

二、语言学层面知识的增长

要理解故事里都发生了什么,阅读者必须知道他们所遇到的单词的意思。一部英语小说通常包含至少上万字的单词。而大量的接触这些单词是能够提高其阅读能力的。

比起其他体裁的文学,小说可以提供与目标语言更多的接触。尽管英语写作以其词汇的多样性闻名,作者们通常很自然的都有自己偏好的词汇、表达,这就保证了读者能够不止一次的遇到某个单词。如果这些被重复的单词已经在阅读者所掌握的词汇中了,那么对于这个单词的记忆就会因为多次接触而加深。如果一些词不熟悉或是完全陌生,那么读者要么猜词的意思,要么查阅字典。不管哪种情况,读者都会受益。因为已经被证实,在语境中记忆单词是最有效的方法,这种方式能让读者了解到单词最直接与普遍的使用方法,包括具体的词义、词性、连用等。

如此,小说阅读既可以加强阅读者目标语言的词汇量,又可以帮助他们记忆这些新词汇。鉴于单词是二语阅读者理解篇章最基础的准备,小说阅读是可以提高他们的阅读能力的。

三、心理语言学层面的提高 

(一)社会背景知识

尽管小说的最显著特点是虚构,由于小说经常是关于人类的故事,对于人物、风景以及社会事件的描述在小说的篇章中就很普遍了。频繁的接触这些很可能陌生的信息可以使二语阅读者认识和熟悉目标语言的社会背景知识。

研究显示,比起语法困难,背景知识是更重要的决定阅读者对篇章联系理解的因素。二语阅读者不断的接触目标语言所在社会的文化背景能够使他们了解熟悉重要的文化背景知识,所以简化了读者在今后阅读其他材料时的理解过程,因为这些材料都直接或间接地与这些知识相联系。即使二语阅读者只有有限的词汇量和语法知识,如果他们能够有很好的目标语言国家背景文化知识,他们的理解也不会受到很大阻拦。这是因为他们在心理语言学层面的知识积累能够在一定程度上弥补他们在语言学层面的局限。

(二)不同的语篇风格

尽管散文占了小说篇章的大多数,记叙这一特性使小说包涵很多不同风格的语篇风格。记叙、对话、独白、以及“作者声音”等都是很常见的语篇风格。多变的语篇风格使得二语阅读者有机会接触到目标语言在不同情景中的使用方法。识别、习惯目标语言被使用的不同语境对于阅读者的理解能力提高是很必要的,所以认识不同的篇章风格提高使阅读者对将遇到的词汇、表达、句法甚至是语气都有所准备。

(三)预测性

英语小说作为二语学习者练习阅读资料存在优势的另一个原因是比起其他体裁的文学,它存在更高的可预测性。预测性不仅指语言学层面的元素,更重要的是经验层面的元素。由于小说的继续通常是围绕人类的生活经验的记叙,如果一个二语阅读者发现这个关于别人的故事并不陌生,并不难理解,那么这种熟悉就会提高阅读者记叙阅读的兴趣。如果他/她发现故事很陌生,那么读者的世界经验知识就会帮助他来解读这本书中的新的经历,同样的,读者的兴趣也会这样被增强。在这个跟随情节的过程中,继续下去直到了解到人物结局的动力就会越来越强。在这个阶段,高度投入的读者就会不自觉或自觉地预测接下来会发生什么,故事中人物会怎么做等。

二语阅读者在阅读小说是会有很强的预测能力,所以他们更可能理解一本小说。反之亦然,预测能力也会帮助阅读者理解其他体裁的文学形式。如上文所解释之,如果读者发现小说故事熟悉,那么预测更有可能与故事情节相符。如此,阅读者对于目标语言社会中经历的认知就会被证明是熟悉的,不论是由于目标语言文化与阅读者自身所处文化的相似性,还是由于阅读这自身又足够的背景知识积累。因此,阅读者做预测所依据的知识将被巩固加强。或者,如果读者发现故事情节与自己的认识陌生,而他们的预测被证实与故事情节发展不符,那么他们的认识将被重塑。至于是由于他们对语言学层面知识的缺乏,还是对背景文化知识的错误理解,认识到自己的错误时,渎职将会调节自己的知识和理解。如果调节快速而有效的完成,那么新的预测就会被证实是正确的。如果再次被证实是错误的,那么新的调节又将被进行。

四、 结论

阅读英语小说能够帮助二语阅读者在语言学层面和心理语言学层面提高阅读能力。语言学层面上,通过让阅读者用最有效的记忆单词的方法来增加阅读者的词汇量。拥有更大词汇量的读者能够更流利的阅读不同体裁的文学。心理语言学层面上,它使读者熟悉目标语言的社会文化背景知识、不同的语篇风格,它还在经历层面上提高利阅读者的预测能力。拥有更多背景和语篇风格知识的读者能够更有技巧的处理不同体裁的文学。
