1、1阅读理解提升练(一)A(2018浙江杭州高级中学仿真测试)An idea that started in Seattles public library has spread throughout America and beyond.The concept is simple:help to build a sense of community in a city by getting everyone to read the same book at the same time.In addition to encouraging reading as a pursuit to be e

2、njoyed by all,the program allows strangers to communicate by discussing the book on the bus,as well as promoting reading as an experience to be shared in families and schools.The idea came from Seattle librarian Nancy Pearl who launched(发起) the “If All of Seattle Read the Same Book” project in 1998.

3、Her original program used author visits,study guides and book discussion groups to bring people together with a book,but the idea has since expanded to many other American cities,and even to Hong Kong.In Chicago,the mayor appeared on television to announce the choice of To Kill a Mockingbird as the

4、first book in the “One Book,One Chicago” program.As a result,reading clubs and neighbourhood groups sprang up around the city.Across the US,stories emerged of parents and children reading to each other at night and strangers chatting away on the bus about plot and character.The only problem arose in

5、 New York,where local readers could not decide on one book to represent the huge and diverse population.This may show that the idea works best in medium-sized cities or large towns,where a greater sense of unity(一致)can be achieved.Or it may show that New Yorkers rather missed the point,putting all t

6、heir energy and passion into the choice of the book rather than into discussion about a book itself.Ultimately,as Nancy points out,the level of success is not measured by how many people read a book,but by how many people are enriched by the process,or have enjoyed speaking to someone with whom they

7、 would not otherwise have shared a word.1.What is the purpose of the project launched by Nancy?A.To invite authors to guide readers.B.To encourage people to read and share.C.To involve people in community service.D.To promote the friendship between cities.2.According to the passage,where would the p

8、roject be more easily carried out?A.In large communities with little sense of unity.B.In large cities where libraries are far from home.2C.In medium-sized cities with a diverse population.D.In large towns where agreement can be quickly reached.3.According to Nancy,the degree of success of the projec

9、t is judged by . A.the careful selection of a proper bookB.the growing popularity of the writersC.the number of people who benefit from readingD.the number of books that each person readsBAs Charlotte arrived at the big living room,her mother Sarah and her new stepfather(继父)Robert Graham turned from

10、 the window and faced her.We shall never have Mom to ourselves again,Charlotte thought.If only she were just a kid,and could cry wildly in anger on the floor!Instead,she forced a smile.She rushed forward and threw her arms round Sarah and kissed her wildly,knocking her hat crooked(歪的)and making her

11、cry out.“Darling!Youll knock me down!”“You look great,Mom!”Charlotte cried and knew she was shouting.She was hot again,red and untidy and looking like the last kind of girl any man would want to have as a stepdaughter.Her brother Nicholas,however,went to the other extreme.He was so calm that he was

12、positively rude,and Charlotte knew before he started it that he was going to act like a bad schoolboy.“Oh Nicholas,do behave!” Sarah cried.“Robert,theyre showing off!”Although she was laughing,they both heard the little ring of disappointment in her voice,and both knew that they were letting her dow

13、n.They had surely never had such a difficult moment.It was Robert Graham who saved the situation.He came forward holding out both hands.“I am deeply grateful to you two young people.Youve had Sarah to yourselves for a long time.Thank you for agreeing to share her with me.I know it cant be easy.”And

14、although this was just the sort of words they would call dull,the sincerity(真诚)gave it a guarantee.They knew he meant what he said.He was indeed thanking them.And by doing so he pulled them back to reality and made them themselves again.4.Upon entering the living room,Charlotte experienced . A.a sud

15、den sense of loss B.a curiosity to see her stepfatherC.an urge to be more polite than NicholasD.a feeling of anger directed at her stepfather5.Sarah found the moment difficult because she was .

17、jor changes to the admission process in higher education.The National Center for Educational Statistics reported that US colleges and universities received more than 9 million applications between 2013 and 2014.The schools admitted more than 5 million students in that time.But a new report says that

18、 the problem is not in the number of students that are being admitted,but rather how students are selected.The Harvard School of Graduate Education,along with 80 other schools and organizations,released the report in January 2016,called “Turning the TideMaking Caring Common”.The report argues that t

19、he process schools use to choose students causes major problems.David Hawkins,the Executive Director for Educational Content and Policy,says that most colleges and universities require many things from students when they apply.Schools usually ask for an essay describing a students interests or why t

20、hey want to study at that school.The schools also ask for letters from teachers or other responsible adults describing why the student is a good candidate.But,Hawkins says,the area that schools are most concerned with is a students high school grades and standardized test results.The report suggests

21、 that paying attention to academic success over other qualities works well for some students but hurts others.In addition,academic success is not the most important quality a student should have.More attention should be paid to showing whether or not a student wants to do good in the world.The repor

22、t also suggests that schools should ask for evidence that students care about other people.Moving attention away from academic ability will make process less about competition,the report says.Students will feel less stress about meeting higher and higher expectation.But the report does have its crit

23、ics.Bob Schaeffer,Public Education Director,said that every few years,someone makes the same argument for change.He said that no real change has happened yet and that even many of the schools that agree with the report still make no changes.“Many of the institutions that have supported the findings

24、in the report are the very institutions that have the most competitive admission processes in the country,”Schaeffer said.7.What is the problem of the admission process according to the report?A.The schools ask social responsibilities from the applying students.B.The schools attach importance to stu

25、dents academic records.C.The number of students getting admitted is too small.D.Admission officers only consider personal qualities.8.What does the authors attitude to the report of the admission process?A.Supportive. B.Doubtful.C.Neutral. D.Negative.9.The critic,Bob Schaeffer,thinks that . A.some s

26、chools dont do what they believe is rightB.the largest schools are expected to make changes firstC.not enough schools currently agree with the reportD.history has proved that all changes are goodDIt began to rain yesterday morning and it still hasnt stopped.Rain suggests gentle.It has not been gentl

29、 pick up the student singers,and not all of them arrived on the same train.It was amazing to see a number of volunteers,dripping wet themselves volunteering again to drive the students back to the university.The beauty of this was seeing everyone giving of themselves.Not only that,but offering to dr
