For many years,artists have flocked to Paris,France,to paint or to learn to paint.Perhaps artists first went there because of the city’s beauty.They went to paint pictures of the broad,treelined streets,the great churches,and the graceful river bridges.
The artists felt comfortable in Paris because the people of the city had always enjoyed art.Paris had great art museums,filled with famous paintings and statues from many countries.And the people of Paris had always welcomed new ideas.In this city,artists felt free to experiment with new ways of painting.
As soon as famous artists painted in Paris,students came to learn from them.People came to buy paintings.People called art dealers set up galleries where paintings were bought and sold.Others kept shops that sold artists’paints and supplies.
Students and artists who were not yet famous could live in Paris for very little money.They learned by studying great art in the museums,and they learned from one another.They held art fairs,hanging their paintings outdoors along the streets.
Today,New York City and Florence,Italy,are also famous art centers.But the world’s principal art exhibits are still held in Paris.Important judges of art live there.Most of the new ways of painting that have started in the last hundred years began in Paris.So artists and art dealers still go to Paris because it is the world’s leading art center.

While climbing the career ladder can be rewarding, it often comes with one big downside: weight gain!
New research published this week in the International Journal of Obesity shows that working women are more likely to be overweight, and the more you work, the more pounds you’re likely to pile on. Like many women, I work... a lot! As a self-employed nutrition communications specialist, I sit at my desk, in front of a computer, for hours on end. Sitting alone is one of the worst things you can do for your health, and it’s directly linked to being overweight and increased fatness, so the fact that women in the workforce gain weight isn’t that surprising. If you work, you have less time to move around. Obesity(肥胖症)researchers are revealing many other ways that employment is harmful to your diet and waistline.
In the International Journal of Obesity study, some 9,276 Australian women aged 45-50 had their body weight and employment status monitored for two years. Results? Those who worked more than 35 hours were likely to gain weight compared to those who worked fewer hours or were out of the workforce. What’s more, the more hours a woman worked in a week, the more weight she gained.
The authors of the Australian study attribute weight gain among working women to inactivity, lack of time for food preparation, more use of prepared foods, high levels of stress, lack of sleep and consuming more alcohol. I’ll also add in travel, meals eaten out and working at night as other factors that I can find to make balancing work with a healthy diet a challenge.
1. The text above is probably taken from ______.
A. a sports report
B. a fashion journal
C. a health and fitness magazine
D. an advertisement post
2. A woman who works as an accountant is more likely to ______.
A. gain more weight
B. have more time to move around
C. work a full time job
D. keep a balanced diet
3. Which is NOT the cause of working women weight gaining according to the passage?
A. Lacking time for food preparation. B. Using more prepared food.
C. Consuming too much alcohol.
D. Taking part in more activities.
4. What can be a suitable title for the test?
A. Less activity leads to fat.
B. Ways of gaining weight.
C. Effects of weight gaining.
D. Working women more likely pile on pounds.

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,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。There’s a “culture of walking and texting” on the Utah Valley University campus, according to conversations with students, but that’s not the main reason Matt Bambrough, the creative director at UVU, came up with an idea to paint a “texting lane” on a staircase leading up to the Wellness Center.
According to Bambrough, it’s first and foremost a design project—the texting lane was a tongue-in-cheek(戏谑)reference to the college-wide epidemic(流行)of kids walking around with their faces buried in their iPhones.
“You have 18–24-year-olds walking down the hall with smart phones. You’re almost bound to run into someone somewhere; it’s something we’re dealing with in this day and age,” Bambrough said. “But preventing collisions isn’t the reason we did it—we did it to arouse the students’ attention. It’s meant to be there for people to look at and enjoy.”
Still, when talking to Utah Valley students, it sounds like texting and walking can be quite the annoyance.
Robbie Poffenberger, an assistant news editor at the UVU Review, said that most collisions he witnesses aren’t human-on-human; rather, it’s generally human-on-inanimate-object. “They walk into barriers—chairs on the side of the hallway, or railings,” Poffenberger said, “I’m sure they’re fairly embarrassed.”
1. What do we learn about the “texting lane” from the text?
A. It is a special campus culture in Utah Valley University.
B. It is used to encourage the campus culture.
C. It is painted on a staircase leading to everywhere.
D. It is popular with students in universities.
2. According to Bambrough, ______.
A. the “texting lane” is to attract students’ attention
B. we don’t have to face the problem in this age
C. what they did is to prevent the collisions
D. students enjoy looking at each other
3. How do students feel about texting and walking?
A. They are worried.
B. They are annoyed.
C. They are puzzled.
D. They are surprised.
4. What would most students run into from what Robbie said?
A. Students in the same direction.
B. Teachers opposite to them.
C. Barriers on campus.
D. Grass on campus.

The Pew report---which was based on surveys carried out in Britain, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Greece, Poland and the Czech Republic --- concluded that the European Union was “ the new sick man of Europe”.
The percentage of Europeans with a favorable view of the EU has plunged from 60 percent last year to 45 percent now.
The UK may be considered the most Eurosceptic(欧洲怀疑论者)country, but its support for the union has barely changed in the past 12 months, slipping only two points to 43 percent.
By contrast, France’s backing for the EU has slipped sharply, from 60 percent last year to 41 percent today.
On the question of whether to remain in the EU, 46 percent of the British want to leave the union and surprisingly, the same percentage went to stay.
The Pew report’s authors said, “The long-drawn economic crisis has created bad forces that are pulling European public opinion apart, separating the French from the Germans and Germans from everyone else.”
They added, “The effort over the past half century to create a more united Europe is now the main disaster of the euro crisis. The European project now stands in a bad reputation across much of Europe.”
The only European leader rated highly by their own voters was the German Chancellor Angela Merkel, with 74 percent voters in favor of her.
Prime Minister David Cameron was the next highest with a positive score of 37 percent among the British public, although he can take some comfort from the fact that 58 percent of Poles and half of all French people think he is doing a good job.
In spite of the dark economic future and growing doubt of the EU, there were strong majorities of more than 60 percent in favor of keeping the euro in the five countries surveyed that use the single currency.
1. Which of the following is TRUE about the recent Pew report?
A. The UK has the smallest number of people against the EU.
B. There’s a slight change of the UK’s support for the EU.
C. More than half the Germans raise doubt about the EU.
D. A vast majority of French people are in favor of the EU.
2. As to whether to remain in the EU, ______.
A. The British are divided equally
B. few British want to stay
C. half British want to leave
D. many British don’t care about it
3. What’s the Pew report’s authors’ attitude towards the relation between France and Germany?
A. Enthusiastic.
B. Optimistic.
C. Negative.
D. Neutral.
4. Why does Prim Minister David Cameron feel a little bit comfortable?
A. Only a score of 37 percent of Britons go against him.
B. Many of the Poles and French think well of him.
C. More than 60 percent of the Europeans are in favor of keeping the euro.
D. Angela Merkel has 74 percent voters supporting her.
参考答案1—4、BACB
2024高考训练题----阅读理解阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中,选出最佳选项。Dear Miss Manners, Friends of mine lost their home in a house fire. It was terrible. Another friend set up a "go fund me" type page for friends to donate and help the couple. Many friends, including me, helped with money, meals, lamprey and their dog while they were getting back on their feet.
Last week, they sent thank-you notes. My roommate received one addressed to her and I did not. The notes were not in modularized. It was a printed one-size-fits-all message.My roommate realized I didn't receive a thank you note, so she sent a private message to the couple just letting them know I had been left out.
I didn't know she had done this until later.
The next day, I got a text message apologizing and saying that I had been left out because their friend who addressed the notes must have missed me! (Miss Manners, they didn't even address the notes themselves!)It was accompanied by a picture of the thank-you note, which was texted to me with the message, "Here is a thank you just for you. "
I was a little annoyed. I helped them in their need and didn't get a second thought. I have not responded to her text message. Is it fair of me to consider this friendship over? Should I tell her that I am upset, or should I accept that this rude thank you was better than nothing?
