重庆市2024高考英语阅读理解选编（117）（附解析）
社会生活类In 1986，when Carlo Petrini first coined the term “Slow Food，” he organized locally in his native Italy to preserve the food and wine culture and protest fast food.
Today, slow food has spread to 132 countries with over 85, 000 members, addressing worldwide issues like farmer equity and
environmental_stewardship—the actions people take to respect the rights of all living things and all environments, to contribute to healthy and livablecommunities.
Characterized by Slow Food International as “good, clean, and fair food，” slow food must enrich the eaters' life，have no negative impact on human or environmental health，and compensatefairly for food producers' work.
The average American meal travels about 1,500 miles to its final destination, with producing of food traveling by plane from overseas and other items shipped across the country.
However，cost for food travel and heavy processing are not the only problems in the foodindustry that the environment faces. Industrial agriculture also has unsustainable practices likeinefficient water use and decreased biodiversity. Our ideas in feeding ourselves are exceptional,but at various points our technologies come into conflict with nature's ways of doing things. A great many of the health and environmental problems created by our food system owe to our attempts tooversimplify natures complexities, at both the growing and the eating ends of our food chain.
“Slowing” food, by purchasing locally and sustainably, allows consumers to reduce theimpact of “food miles” and develop a closer relationship with their food producers.“ We need tochange our food system，” said David Prior, organizer of Slow Food Nation EatIn. “Our currentfood system is sick and we need to support farmers and agriculture to ensure that everyone has theright to nutritious food.”
1．The main idea of the passage can be summarized as________.
A．why slow food is so important
B．the food and wine culture is rich in Italy
C．what you're eating always travels a long way
D．slow food makes the current food system sick
2．According to the second paragraph, “environmental stewardship”refers to________.
A．measures of environmental protections
B．ways to establish healthy and livable communities

D．actions to protect the rights of all living things and environment
3．Slow food's characteristic doesn't lie in________.
A．improving the quality of eaters' life

【要点综述】本文的作者告诉我们，如果想吃得更健康、更营养，那就提倡“慢食物”吧！
．A 主旨大意题。本文主要探讨“慢食物”的重要性，以及“慢食物”给人们带来的好处，故答案选A项。
．D 细节理解题。从第二段中的“environmental stewardship—the actions people take to respect the rights of all living things
and all environments”可知，环境管理(environmental stewardship)的内容就是“破折号”后的解释，即“人们尊重所有生物和环境的权利的行动”，故D项正确。
3．D 细节理解题。从第三段可知，“慢食物运动”的特色就在于改善饮食者的饮食质量；不对人类健康和环境卫生产生副作用；给食物供应商以合理的报酬。D项则没有提到，故答案选D项。
．B 推理判断题。从最后一段David Prior所说的话可知，他认为当前的食物系统很糟糕，需要改进，所以他的态度应该是不满意的(unsatisfied)。A项表示“怀疑的”；C项表示“漠不关心的”；D项表示“支持的”，都不符合语境。, 从给的四个选项 (A、B、C和D) 中, 选出最佳选项。
When was the last time someone did something unexpectedly nice for you？Not someone you knew，but a total stranger？It's happened to me a few times，but two instances really stand out.
A few years ago，I was dining out with a person who kept going on and on about himself，completely oblivious to the fact that I was sitting there in misery.It wasn't his company that disappointed me.I was recovering from a broken heart，and just sitting down to dinner reminded me of my last relationship.I could have collapsed in tears right there at the table.
When we picked up the check，the waitress said，“Your meal was already paid for.”My friend and I didn't have a clue how it happened.Then I remembered a man coming in out of the corner of my eye.He was dressed in mostly white，sat down at the bar，had a glass of wine，stayed for maybe ten minutes，and then left.The waitress said，“Yes，the gentleman who was in here a while ago paid for you.”
Just last year，I was running a halfmarathon.With just 0.1 mile to go，I was out of breath. Runners call it“hitting the wall”；I thought I couldn't move another muscle .Out of nowhere，a teenager jogs up next to me and says，“What's your name，sweetie？Jennifer？Okay，Jennifer，let's go！Come on! It's just around the corner！You can do it！”And he ran with me until I picked up my pace. I found him at the finish line to thank him for the encouragement only to learn he wasn't even supposed to be in the race that day. He was running in place of someone else.
I still shake my head when I think of these momentary angels that came to me at my point of need. Do you have any experiences like this?
1．Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A．The Kindness of StrangersB．An Unpleasant Companion
C．Two Special ExperiencesD．Hitting the Wall
答案：A 推理推断题。文章第一段便是文章的主题，句中的something unexpectedly nice for you则说明了作者想在下文中谈的内容，由此可知答案选A项。其他几个选项，则是文中的细节部分。
．Why did the author say he was in misery?
A．Because he couldn't enjoy his meal.
B．Because he fell into conflict with his companion.
C．Because his companion talked a lot.
D．Because he was then disappointed in love.
答案：D 细节理解题。作者谈到自己坐在那里痛苦的样子，后面提到了痛苦的原因是“I was recovering from a broken heart(刚刚失恋了)．..”，由此可知答案D项正确。
．What do you think of the man paying for the meal?
A．He showed his kindness for his former girlfriend.
B．He is an acquaintance to the two persons.
C．He is generous and warmhearted to others.
D．He enjoys making fun of others by doing that.
答案：C 推理判断题。文中讲述的是陌生人的帮助，由此排除A、B两项；作者只谈了这位陌生人帮他们付了账单，并没有说陌生人如何捉弄他们，因此排除D项；帮助不认识的人付账单，说明了这位陌生人的慷慨和热心，由此可知C项正确。
．How did the teenager help the author?
A．He gave the author a glass of water.
B．He gave the author orders firmly.
C．He ran after the author.
D．He ran with the author.
答案：D 推理判断题。根据第四段的“And he ran with me until I picked up my pace.”可知，这位年轻人陪着作者跑了一段时间，直到作者加快了脚步，由此可知D项符合文意。
．What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A．The author still believes his experience today.
B．The author feels grateful for the help he received.C．The author thinks everyone is an angel.
D．The author often gets help expectedly.
答案：B 推理判断题。根据文章前面的叙述可知，作者对别人给予的帮助充满感激，认为帮助过他的两位都是天使级人物，所以选B项。
阅读下列材料，从每题所给的选项中选出最佳选项。A black hole is a place in space where gravity pulls so much that even light cannot get out. The gravity is so strong because matter has been squeezed into a tiny space. This can happen when a star is dying.
Because no light can get out, people can't see black holes. Space telescopes with special tools can help find black holes. The special tools can see how stars that are very close to black holes act differently from other ones.
Black holes can be big or small. Scientists think the smallest black holes are as small as just one atom. These black holes are very tiny but have the mass of a large mountain. Mass is the amount of matter, or “staff”， in an object.
Another kind of black hole is called “stellar”(星球黑洞). Its mass can be up to 20 times more than the mass of the sun. There may be many stellar mass black holes in Earth's galaxy. Earth's galaxy is called the Milky Way.
The largest black holes are called “supermassive”(超大质量黑洞). These black holes have masses that are more than one million suns together. Scientists have found proof that every large galaxy contains a supermassive black hole at its center. The supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way galaxy has a mass equal to about four million suns and would fit inside a very large ball that could hold a few million Earths.
Scientists think the smallest black holes formed when the universe began. Stellar black holes are made when the center of a very big star falls in upon itself, or falls apart. When this happens, it exploded part of the star into space. Scientists think supermassive black holes were made at the same time as the galaxy they are in.
A black hole can not be seen because strong gravity pulls all of the light into the middle of the black hole. But scientists can see how the strong gravity affects the stars and gas around the black hole. Scientists can study stars to find out if they are flying around, or orbiting a black hole.
When a black hole and a star are close together, high－energy light is made. This kind of light cannot be seen with human eyes. Scientists use satellites and telescopes in space to see the high－energy light.
【语篇解读】 本文主要讲述太空黑洞的形成原因和科学家们如何了解黑洞现象的。

2．According to the passage，which of the following is NOT true?
A．A black hole can be very tiny but extremely heavy.
B．The gravity of a black hole holds all light in its center.
C．Scientists observe high－energy light through their own eyes.
D．Some small black holes came into being as early as the universe.
答案 C

A．Every galaxy must have a black hole.
B．A galaxy is the center of the universe.
C．A galaxy consists of a large group of stars and planets.
D．Earth's galaxy is called the Milky Way.
答案 C
4．What does the last sentence in Paragraph 5 suggest?
A．Neither the sun nor the earth is as heavy as a black hole.
B．There is only one supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way.
C．The supermassive black hole had existed before the Milky Way was formed.
D．There is a reason why the large black holes are called “supermassive”．
