2017高考英语真题阅读理解分类训练一
The railroad industry could not have grown as large as it did without steel. The first rails were made of iron. But iron rails were not strong enough to support heavy trains running at high speed. Railroad officials wanted to replace them with steel rails because steel was ten or fifteen times stronger and lasted twenty times longer. Before the 1870‘s, however, steel was too expensive to be widely used. It was made by a slow and expensive process of heating, stirring, and reheating iron ore.
Then the inventor Henry Bessemer discovered that directing a blast of air at melted iron in a furnace(熔炉) would burn out the impurities(杂质)that made the iron brittle(易脆).As the air shot through the furnace, the bubbling metal would erupt(喷发)in showers of sparks. When the fire cooled, the metal had been changed, or converted, to steel. The Bessemer converter made possible the mass production of steel. Now three to five tons of iron could be changed into steel in a matter of minutes.
Just when the demand for more and more steel developed, prospectors discovered huge new deposits(矿床) of iron ore in the Mesabi Range, a 120-mile-long region in Minnesota near Lake Superior. The Mesabi deposits were so near the surface that they could be mined with steam shovels.
Barges and steamers carried the iron ore through Lake Superior to deposits on the southern shores of Lake Michigan and Lake Erie. With dizzying speed Gary, Indiana and Toledo, Youngstown, and Cleveland, Ohio, became major steel manufacturing centers. Pittsburgh was the greatest steel city of all.
1.The best title for the passage is______.
A. The Railroad Industry B. Famous Inventors C. Changing Iron into Steel D. Steel Manufacturing Centers
2.According to the passage, how did the Bessemer method make the mass production of steel possible?
A. It directed air at melted iron in a furnace, removing all impurities. B. It slowly heated iron ore, then stirred it and heated it again.
C. It changed iron ore into iron, which was a substitute(替代物) for steel. D. It could be quickly found deposits of iron ore under the ground.
3.The furnace that Bessemer used to process iron into steel was called a______.
A. heater B. steamer C. converter D. shower
4.It can be inferred from the passage that the mass production of steel caused______.
A. a decline(衰退) in the railroad industry B. a revolution in the industrial world C. an increase in the price of steel
D. a feeling of discontent among steel workers

It doesn‘t come as a surprise to you to realize that it makes no difference what you read or study if you can‘t remember it. You just waste your valuable time. Maybe you have already discovered some clever ways to keep yourself from forgetting.
One dependable aid that does help you remember what you study is to have a specific purpose or reason for reading. You remember better what you read when you know why you‘re reading.
Why does a clerk in a store go away and leave you when your reply to her offer to help is ―No, thank you. I‘m just looking‖ ? Both you and she know that if you aren‘t sure what you want, you are not likely to find it. But suppose you say instead, ―Yes, thank you. I want a pair of sun

glasses.‖ She says,‖ Right this way, please.‖ And you and she are off-both eager to look for exactly what you want.
It‘s quite the same with your studying. If you choose a book at random(随意), ―just look‖ for nothing in particular, you are likely to get just that-nothing. But if you do know what you want, and if you have the right book, you are almost sure to get it. Your reasons will vary; they will include reading or studying ―to find out more about‖, ―to understand the reason for‖, ―to find out how‖ .A good student has a clear purpose or reason for what he is doing.
This is the way it works. Before you start to study, you say to yourself some thing like this: ―I want to know why Stephen Vincent Benet happened to write about America. I‘m reading this article to find out.‖ Or, ―I am going to go over this story to see what life was like in medieval (中世纪的)England.‖ Because you know what you are reading or studying, you relate the information to your purpose and remember it better.
Reading is not one single activity. At least two important processes go on at the same time. As you read, you take in ideas rapidly and accurately. But at the same time you express your own ideas to yourself as you react to what you read. You have a kind of mental conversation with the author. If you express your ideas orally, they may sound like this:‖ Yes, I agree. That‘s my opinion too.‖ or ―Ummmm, I thought that record was broken much earlier. I‘d better check those dates,‖ or ―But there are some other facts to be considered!‖ You don‘t just sit there taking in ideas-you do something else, and that something else is very important.
This extra process of thinking about what you read includes judging it, relating it to what you already know, and using it for your own purposes. In other words, a good reader is a critical reader. One part of critical reading, as you have discovered, is to distinguish(辨认)between facts and opinions. Facts can be checked by evidence(证据). Opinions are one‘s own personal reactions. Another part of critical reading is judging source(出处). Still another part is drawing accurate conclusions.
1.If you cannot remember what you read or study______.
A. it is no surprise
B. it means you have not really learned anything C. it means you have not chosen the right book D. you realize it is of no importance
2.Before you start reading, it is important______.
A. to make sure why you are reading
B. to relate the information to your purpose C. to remember what you read D. to choose an interesting book
3.Reading activity includes______.
A. only two reasons
B. mainly drawing exact conclusions
C. mainly learning about ideas and judging them critically D. only distinguishing between facts and opinions
4.A. good reader is one who______.
A. relates what he reads to his own knowledge B. does lots of thinking in his reading C. take a critical attiutude in his reading
D. is able to check the facts against what he has known
