小题1:细节理解题。从短文的前三句就可以判断,这里讲述的是一种健身器材。
小题2:细节理解题。短文第四句是说“鉴于这种健身器材在试用期对身体有好处,加之它对改善人体健康的良好业绩,因此,97%的人在试用30天之后全部买了它。”
小题3:细节理解题。可从第五句找到答案。意思是“每次只花不到20美分,每次只需训练4分钟,就可以是人们全身得到锻炼的最不昂贵的器械。”这就是它的一个重要的卖点。B选项说“在10分钟之内可终止背部和肩部的疼痛”。C选项说“头20年该器械无需修理”。D选项说“以3个月的试验器为基础来销售这种器械”。这三种答案均不符合文中要求。
小题4:推理判断题。要是人相信你的广告靠什么?讲故事?提问题?还是进行比较?根据短文中的陈述,这几项理由都不充分。唯有用列举的统计数字更能说明问题。

The school is organized by the colleges of the University of London. The summer school offers eight days of intensive teaching in Greek and Latin.

科目:高中英语 来源:不详 题型:阅读理解

Thousands of puffins(海鹦) live in Maine and on islands in the Gulf of Maine. But the puffins may be in danger. Last summer, the percentage of laid eggs that successfully produced baby puffins took a dive. Scientists also found a decline in the average body weight of the adult and baby puffins on Machias Seal Island, home to the area’s largest colony. Over the winter, dozens of the seabirds from the region were found dead, likely from starvation.
What’s causing the puffin trouble? Scientists think it may be a shortage of food. With ocean temperatures rising, fish populations have moved around. Normally, puffins’ primary food source is herring, a type of fish. A lack of herring in the area could be causing the problem.
Butterfish from the south have become more abundant in the Gulf of Maine and could be a new food source for birds. But Steve Kress says butterfish may be too big and round for baby puffins to swallow.
Puffins spend most of their lives at sea. They come ashore to breed each spring and return to the ocean in August. The chicks swim to sea about 40 days after hatching. Puffin populations stretch across the North Atlantic, from Maine to northern Russia.
Maine’s puffin population has been at risk in the past. In the 1800s, they were hunted for their food, eggs and feathers. By 1901, only one pair of puffins remained in the state. Thanks to the help of local lighthouse keepers and seabird restoration programs, the state’s puffin population has been restored to more than 2,000 birds.
Scientists aren’t sure what will happen to the Gulf of Maine’s puffins. The birds may move further north. Kress says he hopes the Gulf population will sustain itself and then he continued. “You never know what climate change will bring,” Kress said. “Historically fish could move out and more southerly fish could move in, and puffins may adapt to the new fish. Only they will know how the story will unfold.”
小题1:The underlined phrase “took a dive” means _______.
A.increasedB.aroseC.reducedD.changed
小题2:In the scientists’ opinion, ________ is contributing to the puffin trouble.
A.a lack of herringB.environmental pollution
C.the increase of birdsD.the huge size of butterfish
小题3:It can be inferred from the passage that _______.
A.Maine’s puffin once nearly became extinct
B.Maine’s puffins’ eggs were of high prices
C.baby puffins grew up quickly
D.the number of Maine’s puffins is worrying
小题4:Judging from Kress’s words in the last paragraph, we know ________.
A.climate change matters little
B.there is cause for concern
C.the new fish won’t harm puffins
D.puffins may move to the south
小题5:How is the second paragraph mainly developed?
A.By giving examples.B.By making comparisons.
C.By following time order.D.By asking questions
