　　阅读理解答题 “五忌”

　　1.忌不带问题进行阅读。应先把文章后面所给的考查题浏览一遍，然后带着问题进行阅读。边阅读边选出考查表层情况问题的答案。

　　2.忌草率行事。做理解题时，遇到似是而非、干扰性特别强的答案，不能草率定案。在理解阅读材料内容的基础上去伪存真，方可得出正确答案。

　　3.忌主观印象。许多理解题必须按照原文来选定答案，一定要排除自身的生活经验、经历和已有的知识等主观因素的干扰，按照文章实际反映的情况来选择答案。

　　4.忌囫囵定案。在未完全读懂文章时就匆忙定案，结果往往选错答案。未读懂的地方，一定要慢速多读几遍，直到读懂时再定答案。

　　5.忌忽略时间。平时做阅读理解题时，就要养成从整体上控制时间的好习惯，时间的分配要根据文章的难易程度来决定。

　　Passage 1

　　一、阅读理解

　　“If you want to see a thing well, reach out (伸出手) and touch it!”

　　That may seem a strange thing to say.But touching things can help you to see them better.Your eyes can tell you that a glass ball is round.But by holding it in your hands, you can feel how smooth (光滑) and cool the ball is. You can feel how heavy the glass is.When you feel all these about the ball, you really see it.With your skin, you can feel better.For example, your fingers can tell the difference between two coins (硬币) in your pocket.You can feel a little drop of water on the back of your hand, too.

　　All children soon learn what “Don't touch!”means.They hear it often.Yet most of us keep on touching things as we grow up.In shops, we touch things as we might buy food, clothes.To see something well, we have to touch it.

　　There are ways of learning to see well by feeling.One way is to close your eyes and try to feel everything that is touching your skin. Feel the shoes on your feet, the clothes on your body, the air on your skin.At first, it is not easy to feel these things.You are too used to(习惯于) them！

　　Most museums are just for looking.But today some museums have some things to touch.Their signs say, “Do touch!” There you can feel everything on show.If we want to see better, reach out and touch it.Then you will really see it!

　　①But by holding it in your hands, you can feel how smooth and cool the ball is.但是通过把它握在手里，你能感觉到这个球有多么光滑和凉爽。

　　②One way is to close your eyes and try to feel everything that is touching your skin.一种方法是闭上你的眼睛，设法感觉触及你皮肤的一切东西。

　　Passage 2

　　二、阅读理解

　　In many countries today, people are doing something to protect wildlife (野生动物) so that wild animals can be safe.In India the need for such protection was understood centuries ago.

　　About 300 B.C.an Indian writer told people something about forests.The forests of that day were a bit like national parks today.The game of killing animals was carefully governed.That is, people mustnt kill animals freely.Some animals were fully protected.Within the forests, nobody could cut trees, burn wood, or catch animals for their furs (皮毛).Animals dangerous to human visitors were caught or killed outside the forests so that other animals would not become worried or afraid.

　　The need for wildlife protection is greater now than ever before.About a thousand sorts (种类) of animals are in danger of extinction (灭绝), and the speed (速度) at which they become extinct has been putting on. With mammals (哺乳动物), for example, the speed of extinction is now about one sort every year, and from A.D.(公元) 1 to 1800, the speed was about one sort every fifty years.Everywhere, people are trying their best to save wildlife while thinking about the world's growing population.

　　①In India the need for such protection was understood centuries ago.在印度，保护野生动物的必要性几个世纪前就被人们所认识。

　　②About a thousand sorts of animals are in danger of extinction, and the speed at which they become extinct has been putting on.大约1000种动物处于灭绝的危险中，并且灭绝的速度一直在增长。

　　根据短文内容，判断下列句子正(T)误(F)。

　　1.Only Indians knew wild animals needed to be protected centuries ago.

　　2.Indians built some national parks to protect wildlife centuries ago.

　　3.Long ago in Indian forest, no game of killing animals was held at all.

　　4.The speed of wildlife extinction is getting faster and faster.

　　5.The growth of the world's population means greater danger to wildlife.

　　Passage 4

　　John used to get up late, but now he is used to getting up early.约翰过去习惯于晚起床，但现在他习惯于早起床。

　　2.…from A. D.1 to 1800, the speed was about one sort every fifty years.……从公元1年到公元1800年，哺乳动物灭绝的速度是大约每五十年灭绝一种。(Line 13,Passage 2)
