科目:高中英語 來源:2015屆山東濟寧市高一上學期期中質量檢測英語試卷(解析版) 題型:閱讀理解

A subject which seems to have been insufficiently studied by doctors and psychologists is the influence of geography and climate on the psychological and physical health of mankind. There seems no doubt that the general character of the landscape, the relative length of day and night, and the climate must all play a big part in determining what kind of people we are.

It is true that a few studies have been made. Where all the inhabitants of a particular area enjoy exceptionally good or bad health, scientists have identified contributory factors such as the presence or absence of substances like iodine, fluoride, calcium, or iron in the water supply, or perhaps types of land that provide breeding places for pests like mosquitoes or rats.

Moreover, we can all generalize about types of people we have met. Those living in countries with long dark winters are apt to be less talkative and less vivacious than inhabitants of countries where the climate is more equable. And where the olive and the orange grow, there the inhabitants are cheerful, talkative, and spontaneous.

But these commonplace generalizations are inadequate: the influence of climate and geography should be studied in depth. Do all mountain dwellers live to a ripe old age? Does the drinking of wine, rather than beer, result in a sunny and open temperament? Is the strength and height of one of the Kenyan tribes due to their habitual drinking of the blood of cows?

We are not yet sure of the answers to such questions, but let us hope that something of benefit to mankind may eventually result from such studies.

1._____ might serve as a suitable title for this selection.

A.The Importance of Geographical Environment

B.The Influence of Geographical Environment on Man

C.Generalization of Types of People

D.Geographical Environment, a Mysterious Subject

2.Using context clues we may infer that " iodine, fluoride and calcium" are _____.

A.substances which act positively or negatively on man's health

B.harmful substances in the water supply

C.substances which help provide breeding places for pests

D.substances contributory to good health

3.We may infer from the third paragraph that geography and climate play an important role in determining the inhabitants' _____.

A.health condition

B.personality

C.life-span

D.a(chǎn)ll of the above

4.According to the author, research into the influence of geography and climate should_____.

A.focus on some unknown aspects

B.be pursued on a larger scale

C.be carried out within a larger scope

D.go much deeper

5.The author hopes that studies on the influence of geographical environment will enable us to           

A.generalize better about types of people

B.find better water supplies

C.gain an insight into its influence on mankind

D.live to a ripe old age

A new era is upon us. Call it what you will: the service economy, the information age, the knowledge society. It has changed the way we work. Already we’re partly there. The percentage of people who earn their living by making things has fallen dramatically in the Western World. Today the majority of jobs in America, Europe and Japan (two thirds or more in many of these countries) are in the service industry, and the number is on the rise. More women are in the work force than ever before. There are more part-time jobs. More people are self-employed. But the breadth (廣度) of the economic transformation can’t be measured by numbers alone, because it also is giving rise to a basic new way of thinking about the nature of work itself. Long-held concepts about jobs and careers, the skills needed to succeed, even the relation between individuals and employers — all these are being challenged.

We have only to look behind us to get some sense of what may lie ahead. No one looking ahead 20 years possibly could have foreseen the ways in which a single invention, the chip (芯片), would transform our world thanks to its applications in personal computers, digital communications and factory robots. Tomorrow’s achievements in biotechnology, artificial intelligence or even some still unimagined technology could produce a similar wave of dramatic changes. But one thing is certain: information and knowledge will become even more important, and the people who possess it, whether they work in manufacturing (制造業(yè)) or services, will have the advantage and produce the wealth. Computer knowledge will become as basic a requirement as the ability to read and write. The ability to solve problems by applying information instead of performing routine tasks will be valued above all else. If you cast your mind ahead 10 years, information services will be predominant (最重要的). It will be the way you do your job.

1.One of the great changes caused by the knowledge society is that ______.

A.most people have to take part-time jobs

B.people have to change their jobs from time to time

C.people’s traditional concepts about work are no longer completely true

D.the difference between the employee and the employer has become unimportant

2.The future will probably belong to those who ______.

A.have more brains

B.a(chǎn)re involved in the service industries

C.cast their mind ahead instead of looking back

D.possess and know how to make use of information

3.Which of the following would be the best title of the passage?

A.Computers and the knowledge society

B.Features and meanings of the New Era

C.Service Industries in the Modern Society

D.Rapid Advancement of Information Technology
