考研英语阅读理解专项真题练习 1
27. It is generally believed that ambition may be well regarded if_____。
普遍认为,如果____, 雄心就能够受人尊重。
[A] its returns well compensate for the sacrifices
雄心的回报充分补偿了所作的牺牲
[B] it is rewarded with money, fame and power
雄心以金钱、名誉和权力作为回报
[C] its goals are spiritual rather than material
雄心的目标是精神上的而不是物质上的
[D] it is shared by the rich and the famous
它是富人和名人共享的
【答案】 A
【考点】 事实细节题。
【分析】 文章第一句指出,雄心如果想要获得尊重,那么它的回报财富、声望、对命运的掌控则必须被认为值得为之牺牲。也就是说,正确答案是[A]。[B]中的金钱、声望和对命运的控制,在第一句中,只是作为取得回报的三个例子,并非仅包括这三方面而已。因此,选择项[A]更加确切地表达了第一句的意思。[C]、[D]的说法显然不对。
28. The last sentence of the first paragraph most probably impliesthat it is____。
第一段最后一句话很可能暗示的内容是____。
[A] customary of the educated to discard ambition in words
受过教育的人习惯于口头上抛弃雄心
[B] too late to check ambition once it has been let out
雄心一旦释放,要想再阻拦就晚了
[C] dishonest to deny ambition after the fulfillment of the goal
在目标达成之后不诚实地否认雄心
[D] impractical for the educated to enjoy benefits from ambition
对受过教育的人来说,要享受雄心带来的`好处是不实际的。
【答案】 C
【考点】 句意题。
【分析】 本句中出现一个比喻,意思是他们是野心的受益者,但又虚伪地否认拥有野心的重要性。这和[C]的意思是吻合的。[A]的错误在于它不够完整,没有提到受益这个概念。[B]的说法是字面意思。[D]选项没有根据。
29. Some people do not openly admit they have ambition because____。
一些人不公开宣称他们有雄心,是因为____。
[A] they think of it as immoral
他们认为这不道德
[B] their pursuits are not fame or wealth
他们追求的不是名声和财富
[C] ambition is not closely related to material benefits
雄心和物质利益并非紧密相连
[D] they do not want to appear greedy and contemptible
他们不想让自己看上去贪婪和可鄙
【答案】 D
【考点】 事实细节题。
【分析】 根据第二段第三句,现在,人们不能像以前那样轻易公开地承认自己的梦想,以免别人认为自己爱出风头,贪婪和庸俗,所以答案是[D]。
30. From the last paragraph the conclusion can be drawn thatambition should be maintained_____。
从最后一段可以得出雄心应该被____ _ 保持这一结论。
[A]secretly and vigorously 秘密并严格地
[B]openly and enthusiastically 公开和充满热情地
[C]easily and momentarily 容易并暂时地
[D]verbally and spiritually 在语言上和精神上
【答案】 B
【考点】 作者观点题。
【分析】 文章最后一段提到本应该是一种健康的冲动,一种应该受人仰慕并扎根于青年人心灵的品质的雄心,却被人攻击,得不到支持。由于不公开,雄心转为地下,雄心变得偷偷摸摸。由此推论,作者认为人们不应该隐瞒自己的雄心,而应该坦言。
难句解析:
1. If the tradition of ambition is to have vitality, it must bewidely shared; and it especially must be highly regarded by people who arethemselves admired, the educated not least among them。
【结构分析】本句是并列句,前一个分句中,if引导条件状语从句,主句主语it指代the tradition of ambition。后一个分句中who引导一个定语从句修饰people,theeducated not least among them是people的补语。
2. What has happened is that people cannot confess fully to theirdreams, as easily and openly as once they could, lest they be thought pushing,acquisitive and vulgar。
【结构分析】what引导主语从句,that引导表语从句。asas结构做程度状语,此外lest引导带虚拟语气的假设状语从句。
3. Instead, we are treated to fine hypocritical spectacles, whichnow more than ever seem in ample supply: the critic of American materialismwith a Southampton summer home; the publisher of radical books who takes hismeals in three-star restaurants; the journalist advocating participatorydemocracy in all phases of life, whose own children are enrolled in privateschools。
【结构分析】本句看上去很长,主句是we are treated to fine hypocritical spectacles。which引导一个非限定性定语从句修饰spectacles。在冒号的后面是三个并列的名词性短语,关键词分别是critic,publisher和journalist。
全文翻译:
雄心如果想要获得尊重,那么它的回报财富、声望、对命运的掌控则必须被认为值得为之牺牲。如果雄心的传统要焕发生命力,那么它就应该受到广泛的认同;雄心尤其应该得到那些自身得到他人崇拜的人们的高度尊重,那些接受过良好教育的人最应该包括在内。怪就怪在恰恰是那些受过良好教育的人在声称他们不再将雄心作为理想。可是奇怪的是他们已经从雄心中受益最多如果不总是他们自己的雄心,那么就是他们父母的和祖父母的。这其中有着强烈的虚伪感,就好比把马放跑后再关上马厩的门,而骑在那些马背上的正是受过良好教育的人自己。
当然,现在人们对成功及其标志的兴趣似乎不逊从前,夏日别墅,欧洲旅行、宝马轿车尽管它们的地点、地名和商标可能会不一样,但现在对这些东西的需求似乎并未比一、二十年前减少。现在,人们不能像以前那样轻易公开地承认自己的梦想,以免别人认为自己爱出风头,贪婪和庸俗。相反,我们目睹的是得体的虚伪,而且比以前任何时候都多。如:美国物欲主义批评家在南安普顿拥有一幢夏日别墅;激进读物的出版商到三星级宾馆就餐;倡导终生参与民主制的新闻记者却把自己的子女送进私立学校。对于这样的人,以及其他许多不如他们这么特殊的人而言,最好的表达是成功不惜一切代价,雄心不让任何人看出。
很多人从不同角度对雄心进行了攻击;却没什么人为之公开辩护,即使辩护也不能服人,尽管辩护者并非极不引人注意。因此,在美国,本应该是一种健康的冲动,一种应该受人仰慕并扎根于青年人心灵的品质的雄心,其得到的支持也许比以往任何时期都低。但这并不意味着雄心已经结束了,人们不再感觉到它对人们的激励了,只是人们不再公开地以它为荣,更少愿意公开地承认。很多不良后果随之而来,如雄心被赶入地下,或变得偷偷摸摸。现在的情况是这样的:左边是愤怒的批评家,右边是愚蠢的支持者,而居中的通常是大多数认真而努力追求成功的人

考研英语阅读理解专项真题练习 3
Directions:
In the following article, some sentences have been removed. For Questions 1-5, choose the most suitable one from the list A―G to fit into each of the numbered blank. There are two extra choices, which do not fit in any of the gaps.
One morning, a few years ago, Harvard President Neil Rudenstine overslept. 1)Only after a three-month sabbatical ― during which he read essayist Lewis Thomas, listened to Ravel and walked with his wife on a Caribbean beach― was he able to return to his post. That week, his picture was on the cover of Newsweek magazine beside the banner headline “Exhausted!”
In the relentless busyness of modern life, we have lost the rhythm between action and rest. I speak with people in business and education, doctors and day-care workers, shopkeepers and social workers, parents and teachers, nurses and lawyers, students and therapists, community activist and cooks. Remarkably, there is a universal refrain: “I am so busy”. The more our life speeds up, the more we feel weary, overwhelmed and lost.
2) Instead, the whole experience of being alive begins to melt into one enormous obligation. It becomes the standard greeting everywhere: “I am so busy”.
We say this to one another with no small degree of pride. The busier we are, the more important we seem to ourselves and, we imagine, to others. To be unavailable to our friends and family, to be unable to find time for the sunset (or even to know that the sun has set at all), to whiz through our obligations without time for a single mindful breath ― this has become the model of a successful life.
Because we do not rest, we lose our way. We lose the nourishment that gives us succor. We miss the quiet that gives us wisdom. Poisoned by the hypnotic belief that good things come only through tireless effort, we never truly rest.
This is not the world we dreamed of when we were young. How did we get so terribly rushed in a world saturated with work and responsibility, yet somehow bereft of joy and delight?
We have forgotten the Sabbath.
3)It is time to be nourished and refreshed as we let our work, our chores and our important projects lie fallow, trusting that there are larger forces at work taking care of the world when we are at rest.
If certain plant species do not lie dormant during winter, the plant begins to die off. 4)
So “Remember the Sabbath” is more than simply a lifestyle suggestion. It is a commandment, an ethical precept as serious as prohibitions against killing, stealing and lying.
Sabbath is more than the absence of work. Many of us, in our desperate drive to be successful and care for our many responsibilities, feel terrible guilt when we take time to rest. But the Sabbath has proven its wisdom over the ages. Many of us still recall when not long ago, shops and offices where closed on Sundays. Those quiet Sunday afternoons are embedded in our cultural memory.
Much of modern life is specifically designed to seduce our attention away from rest. When we are in the world with our eyes wide open, the seductions are insatiable.5)For those of us with children, there are endless soccer practices, baseball games, homework, laundry, housecleaning, errands. Every responsibility, every stimulus competes for our attention: Buy me .Do me. Watch me. Try me. Drink me. It is as if we have inadvertently stumbled into some horrific wonderland.
[A]Rest is not just a psychological convenience; it is a biological necessity.
[B]After years of non-stop toil in an atmosphere that rewarded frantic overwork, Rudenstine collapsed.
[C]Hundreds of channels of cable and satellite television; phones with multiple lines and call-waiting. begging us to talk to more than one person at a time; mail, e-mail and overnight mail, fax machines; billboards; magazines; newspapers; radio.
[D]Sometimes you can have a rest on Sundays. But your heart and soul is no longer quiet.
[E]Sabbath is the time that consecrated to enjoy and celebrate what is beautiful and good ― time to light candles, sing songs, worship, tell stories, bless our children and loved ones, give thanks, share meals, nap, walk and even make love.
[F]Once upon a time. Sabbath is our heaven. We often walk in the green parks with friends or have a picnic lunch with the family. Listening to the birds on the tree makes me feel peaceful. But whatever happened to Sunday now?
[G]Today our life and work rarely feel light, pleasant or healing.
答案及详解
1.B。通读全文,不难掌握大意,作者试图回答一个人人都困惑的问题“我们的休息日,我们舒适的,轻松的生活哪里去了”。本文用哈佛大学校长的例子作引,空白处下首的句子意为“在三个月休假后,他才能重新工作”说明空白处的`句子依然谈论的是校长当时疲惫的状况,因此选项B符合要求。
2.G。第三段段首空出,而下句用一个Instead连接说明上下文是转折关系,而同时我们结合第二段来分析,第二段主要说明现在的人,不管职业、年龄、身份,都整日处于奔波劳碌中,所以起到承上启下作用的选项G是最佳选择。
3.E。上文是单句段“我们已经将礼拜日尘封脑后了”,而下文则提出“家务事和重要规划暂且搁在一边,让我们好好享受”承接前文,后面顺理成章的回忆了礼拜日快乐的时光,最后振臂高呼“让我们好好享受吧”可见,空白处是关于对以往快乐礼拜日的重现,所以,运用了一系列排比句子的选项E很贴切,有极强的感染力。
4.A。 此处答案较为简单,从上下文看都有很明显的暗示,而选项A“休息不仅是心理上的舒适也是生理上的必需”,不但能够前后呼应,而且浑然一体,逻辑十分严密。
5.C。 从上文“我们的欲望是无穷无尽的”下面列举了一系列的娱乐方式,如电视、电话、邮件、传真等等,意在渲染强烈的感情色彩,以证明“无穷无尽”的论点,所以选项C为正确答案。
中心思想
本文引用哈佛大学的校长的例子展开全文,指出现在人们的生活越来越乏味,工作越来越忙,时间越来越不够用,总是处于疲于奔命的状态,原本轻松,愉快的休息日早已销声匿迹了,面对越来越快的生活节奏,越来越多的娱乐活动,我们反而再也找不到往昔的欢乐,逐渐地在物欲横流的叫嚣声中迷失了自我。
