【2015高考复习】阅读理解
Walk down the drinks section at the supermarket.Look in the drink cooler in your local convenience store.A new drink is taking up more and more space on the shelves，and that drink is water.Bottled water sales in the US rose to 1.7 billion gallons in 2010 for plastic bottles alone，compared to total sales of only 700 million gallons in 1990.Whereas bottled water was once associated only with the rich and the privileged (特权阶层)，it is now regularly drunk by people at all income levels despite the fact that the price of bottled water can be between 240 and 10,000 times higher per gallon than tap water.What accounts for this surprising increase in demand?
Traditionally，people have drunk bottled water for health reasons.The practice of “taking the waters” originated with the Romans，who believed that a person developed a healthy mind by building a healthy body.Across Europe，drinking or bathing in mineral water has been associated with the power to cure various diseases.Health spas at Evian in France and Pellegrino in Italy began bottling water so that their consumers could continue their treatments at home.The consumers in the 21st century are also concerned about health.However，in America，where the habit of drinking bottled water is relatively new，the concern is often more related to the purity or sterilization (消毒) of the water than to its mineral contents.Americans are often worried about the effects of the chemical pollution and other contaminants on the water supply.Many Americans view bottled water as a safe alternative to tap water.
Further reasons for drinking bottled water are its usefulness as an aid to digestion，as a complement to a good meal in a restaurant，and for taste.City tap water is often treated with chlorine (氯) to guard against harmful microorganisms.Chlorine，as well as metals from pipes and tanks used to distribute and store tap water，can leave behind an unpleasant taste.

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的．四个选项（A,B,C和D)中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该选项标号涂黑。
Think of the last time a song really moved you, or meant something to you．Listening to and
playing music affects marry different sections of the brain, affecting us physically as well.．Why are we as humans so connected to music?
Making music is something that we are born with. There's a reason we refer to music as the
“universal language”；there has been no known human culture without music,．Dancingand
music came before agriculture, and possibly even before language．The fact that whale music and
human music have so much in common suggests that music may exist before humans and that we
may be latecomers to the musical scene rather than being the inventors of music．
We begin life being affected by music; babies first begin to respond to music even before
their birth，Whether or not it's true, everyone has heard that playing classical music; for your baby
supposedly helps him or her become smarter. A study done in the United Kingdom concluded that
children were able to .recognize and even preferred music that they had heard lip to three months
before birth. Although it made no difference whether it was rock music or country music, the
babies who were exposed to faster songs showed a stronger preference for that song than those
who had heard something slower. Researchers have also found that the playing of soft background
music or a mother's soft singing actually helps premature (早产的）babies. Those who were.
subjected to the music tended to gain weight faster and were able to leave hospitals earlier than
those who weren't. However, the study in the UK uncovers no links between babies listening to
music and increased intelligence or brain development.
Another experiment at the University of California at Irvine compared the puzzle-solving
abilities of 3-year-olds who were given piano lessons with those of others who sang, used
computers, or did nothing. The children studying the piano were better at the puzzles．Also, high
school students with a musical background seem to do better in their SATs，Whether it's natural
intelligence that helps the children do better in both music and math，or the music that helps
develop other areas, you can't deny the benefits of a musical background.
On the other hand, it's possible that some music and lyrics（歌词）could be had for children
and teenagers．The lyrics of today's popular music are stated more and more clearly. A study oil
mass media and teenagers showed that a group of 14- to 16-year-olds in 10 different southeastern
cities listened to music an average of 40 hours per week. Obviously, the music they are listening
to plays a large part in their lives，and especially influences self-identity. So any bad influences
in the music will have a very direct effect on the teenagers.

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A.B.C和D项中，选出最佳选项。
Without most people realizing it, there has been a revolution in office work over the last ten years. Before that time, large computers were only used by large, rich companies that could afford the investment. With the advancement of technology, small computers have come onto the market, which are capable of doing the work that used to be done by much larger and expensive computers, so now most smaller companies can use them.
The main development in small computers has been in the field of word processors (处理器) , or WPS as they are often called.40% of British offices are now estimated to have a word processor and this percentage is growing fast.
There are many advantages in using a word processor for both secretary and manager.The secretary is freed from a lot of daily work, such as re-typing letters and storing papers.He or she can use this time to do other more interesting work for the boss.From a manager’s point of view, secretarial time is being made better use of and money can be saved by doing daily jobs automatically outside office hours.
But is it all good? If a lot of daily secretarial work can be done automatically, surely this will mean that fewer secretaries will be needed. Another worry is the increasing medical problems related to work with visual display units (显示器). The case of a slow loss of sight among people using word processors seems to have risen greatly. It is also feared that if a woman works at a VDU for long hours, the unborn child in her body might be killed. Safety screens to put over a VDU have been invented but few companies in England bother to buy them.
Whatever the arguments for and against word processor are, they are a key feature (特征) of this revolution in office practice.
1. Ten years ago, smaller companies did not use large computers because_________.
A.these companies had not enough money to buy such expensive computers
B.these computers could not do the work that small computers can do today
C.these computers did not come onto the market
D.these companies did not need to use this new technology
2.According to the writer, the main feature of the revolution in office workover the lastten years is __________.
A. the saving of time and money
B.the use of computers in small companies
C.the wide use of word processors
D.the decreasing number of secretaries
3.It is implied but not directly stated in the passage that with the use of wordprocessors _________.
A.some secretaries will lose their jobs
B.daily jobs can be done automatically outside office hours
C.medical problems related to work with a VDU have increased greatly
D.the British companies will make less money
4.Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A.There are both advantages and disadvantages in using a word processor.
B.The British companies care much for the health of the people using word processors.
C. The technology in the field of computers has been greatly advanced over the last ten years.
D. Using word processors, secretaries can get more time to do more interesting work for their bosses.
5.It can be concluded from the passage that ________.
A. safety screens are of poor quality
B.working at a VDU for a long time is good for one’s health
C.more and more British offices will use word processors
D.British companies will need fewer and fewer managers
