高一英语阅读理解题20套(带答案) 一、高中英语阅读理解 1．阅读理解 Even a small increase in light activity such as washing dishes, or walking around the house might help prevent an early death among older adults, researchers say. "It is important for elderly people, who might not be able to do much moderate intensity（强度）activity, that just moving around and doing light intensity activity will have strong effects and is beneficial," said Ulf Ekelund, who led the research. Published in the BMJ, the latest research was based on a review of eight studies involving a total of more than 36,000 people with an average age of almost 63 years. Participants were followed for five to six years; 2,149 deaths were recorded. All of the studies involved monitoring the physical activity of individuals who had activity trackers, and the studies did not rely on self-reporting, which, the experts noted, could be unreliable. For each study participants were split into four equal-sized groups, based on the total amount of time spent actively, and the risk of death assessed, taking into account factors such as age, sex, body mass index, and socioeconomic status. This was then repeated for an amount of activity at different levels of intensity. The results were analyzed together to give an overview. The team found a greater amount of activity was linked to a lower risk of death. The results held for different intensities of activity. The team said the study supported the message "sit less and move more and more often". However, the study had limitations. It only looked at the situation for middle age and older adults, most of whom lived in the US or Europe, and some of the effect could be due to those people with a higher risk of death being less likely to be related to physical activity. Physical activity levels also were only measured over one period of time. Dr Gavin Sandercock, from the University of Essex, said the results suggested moving more brought bigger benefits than simply reducing the time of sitting, another factor measured in the study. "This study reinforces the important message that getting the least active people to do even just a little bit more physical activity can have important public health benefits," he said. （1）Which of the following may Ulf Ekelund suggest elderly people do? A.lying on the sofa reading. B.Doing a little gentle gardening. C.Going out to hike with friends. D.Playing basketball sometimes. （2）What can we know about the research? A.It lasted about 8 years. B.The researchers admitted they used fake data. C.The participants didn't include younger people. D.Some participants died because of doing too much physical activity （3）What is the author's attitude towards the researchers' conclusion? A.Doubtful B.Critical C.Supportive D.Neutral （4）Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined word "reinforces" in the last paragraph? A.Highlights B.Conveys C.Excludes D.Denies 【答案】 （1）B （2）C （3）D （4）A 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，研究发现轻微活动能帮助预防老年人过早死亡，对老年人健康很有好处。 （1）考查推理判断。根据第二段中的“It is important for elderly people, who might not be able to do much moderate intensity（强度）activity, that just moving around and doing light intensity activity will have strong effects and is beneficial.”对于无法做中等强度活动的老年人来说，轻度活动对健康很有好处。故选B。 （2）考查细节理解。根据第三段中的“Published in the BMJ, the latest research was based on a review of eight studies involving a total of more than 36,000 people with an average age of almost 63 years.”可知参与调查的36,000人平均年龄是63岁，因此不包括年轻人，故选C。 （3）考查推理判断。根据文中…researchers say , …said Ulf Ekelund, who led the research. Dr Gavin Sandercock, from the University of Essex, said…, …he said.等内容可知，作者只是陈述了研究结果和专家观点，并未掺杂自己观点，作者对研究结果是中立观点，不带感情色彩。故选D。 （4）考查词义猜测。根据第一段中的“Even a small increase in light activity such as washing dishes, or walking around the house might help prevent an early death among older adults”, 陈述研究结果，小的轻微活动能帮助预防老年人过早死亡；以及最后一段中的“This study reinforces the important message that getting the least active people to do even just a little bit more physical activity can have important public health benefits”.提到的 getting the least active people to do even just a little bit more physical activity can have important public health benefits即让最不爱运动的人多做一点点体育活动，对公众健康也有重要的好处，这是对研究结果的进一步强调，由此推知画线词语表示“强调”，与Highlights同义，故选A。 【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解，词义猜测和推理判断三个题型的考查，是一篇科研类阅读，考生需要准确掌握细节信息，同时根据上下文的逻辑关系，进行分析，推理，从而选出正确答案。
