2019-2020年高考英語二輪專題復習精練 閱讀理解（15） [xx銀川、吳忠部分中學高三年級聯(lián)考] A degree can be a valuable virtue for increasing your ine. However, the job market for the highest paying jobs is also extremely petitive. If you are a new member into those job markets, without job experience to match your education, a degree will not help you get a job. Fortunately, the majority of job openings in xx do not require a degree. This includes many of the most reliable employment opportunities in the fastest growing fields. Degrees are not required to work as a personal care assistant or home health assistant, both among the fastest growing occupations in the US today. As the US baby boomer generation grows steadily older, this trend is certain to continue. For the same reason, many other nondegree health care careers in various health care specialties are also promising in the future. Physical and occupational therapist assistants are in constant demand, as audiologists and dental hygienists(牙科保健員). Medical technology experts, such as diagnostic medical sonographers, can often find work with only minimal, specialized college training. As a result, the need for medical secretaries has never been higher. A skilled and experienced medical secretary can expect to make an average of $ 30,530 annually. The collapse of the US housing market hit the construction industry very hard. However, the need for skilled trade workers is as high as ever. Glaziers(裝玻璃的工人)，brick and stonemasons can all expect to enter secure, highpaying jobs after passing all industry exams. In fact, an apprenticeship in nearly any of the skilled trades is likely to pay off. Thus, delegating(委托) most of this basic work to bricklaying helpers saves builders money. At the same time, some fully qualified bricklayers can be replaced by 2 or more helpers. As long as this trend continues, the demand for bricklayer assistants will keep growing. 1. From Paragraph 1, we know some of the jobs________. A. dont require work experience B. dont need a college degree C. emphasize diplomas D. need highly educated talents 2. What is the service target of a personal care assistant or home health assistant? A. Babies and children. B. The elder and patients. C. Household duties. D. Private security. 3. The author intends to tell you________. A. why a degree may not help you get a job in xx B. the importance of getting a degree in xx C. some suggestions about how to find a good job D. diplomas will be less important in the future [文章大意]　本文主要論述了xx年大多數(shù)職位不需要學歷的原因。 1. B。細節(jié)理解題。由第一段中的“Fortunately, the majority of job openings in xx do not require a degree.”可知，xx年大多數(shù)的職位并不需要學位證書。 2. B。推理判斷題。由第二段的最后一句“As the US baby boomer generation grows steadily older, this trend is certain to continue.”可知，由于美國的嬰兒潮一代正在老去，個人醫(yī)療助手和家庭健康助理的需求增長趨勢將繼續(xù)，由此可推知，這類崗位主要是為病人和老年人服務的。 3. A。主旨大意題。由文章內容可知，xx年大多數(shù)職位空缺并不需要學歷。作者告訴讀者學歷不能幫你找到工作的原因。 B LowCost Gifts for Mothers Day Gift No. 1 Offer to be your mothers health friend.

That is greater than the number of users in the United States and European Union. Samia Melhem works for the World Bank to increase information technologies in Africa. She says mobile phones are the fastest growing technology on the continent. “More people municate by phone.

Orange Money says it serves four million customers in ten countries. The World Banks Samia Melham says, “The mobile banking is a huge trend. And people in the West dont understand it, because most people have bank accounts and credit cards. It provides cash at a much lower cost.

Indeed，a rosy picture is painted for the longterm future of the holiday industry. Every month sees the building of a new hotel somewhere. And every month another rockbound Pacific island is advertised as the ‘last paradise (天堂) on earth’． However, the scale and speed of this growth seem set to destroy the very things tourists want to enjoy. In those countries where there was a rush to make quick money out of seaside holidays，overcrowded beaches and the concrete jungles of endless hotels have begun to lose their appeal. Those countries with little experience of tourism can suffer most. In recent years, Nepal set out to attract foreign visitors to fund developments in health and education. Its forests, full of wildlife and rare flowers, were offered to tourists as one more untouched paradise. In fact, the nature all too soon felt the effects of thousands of holidaymakers traveling through the forest land. Ancient tracks became major routes for the walkers, with the consequent exploitation of precious trees and plants. Not only can the environment of a country suffer from the sudden growth of tourism. The people as well rapidly feel its effects. Farmland makes way for hotels, roads and airports; the old way of life goes. The onetime farmer is now the servant of some multinational organization；he is no longer his own master. Once it was his back that bore the pain; now it is his smile that is exploited. No doubt he wonders whether he wasnt happier in his village working his own land. Thankfully, the tourist industry is waking up to the responsibilities it has towards those countries that receive its customers. The protection of wildlife and the creation of national parks go hand in hand with tourist development and in fact obtain financial support from tourist panies. At the same time，tourists are being encouraged to respect not only the countryside they visit but also its people. The way tourism is handled in the next ten years will decide its fate and that of the countries we all want to visit. Their needs and problems are more important than those of the tourist panies. Increased understanding in planning worldwide tourism can preserve the market for these panies. If not, in a few years time the very things that attract tourists now may well have been destroyed. 4. What does the author indicate in the last sentence of Paragraph 1? A. The Pacific island is a paradise. B. The Pacific island is worth visiting. C. The advertisement is not convincing. D. The advertisement is not impressive. 5. The example of Nepal is used to suggest________. A. its natural resources are untouched B. its forests are exploited for farmland C. it develops well in health and education D. it suffers from the heavy flow of tourists 6. What can we learn about the farmers from Paragraph 4? A. They are happy to work their own lands. B. They have to please the tourists for a living. C. They have to struggle for their independence. D. They are proud of working in multinational organizations. 7. Which of the following determines the future of tourism? A. The number of tourists. B. The improvement of services. C. The promotion of new products. D. The management of tourism. 8. The authors attitude towards the development of the tourist industry is________. A. optimistic　　　　　　　 B. doubtful C. objective D. negative [文章大意]　本文為議論文，題材是世界和環(huán)境類。眾所周知旅游業(yè)可以給當?shù)亟洕l(fā)展帶來無限商機，尤其是一些欠發(fā)達國家和地區(qū)。但是盲目無序地發(fā)展旅游業(yè)也會給當?shù)丨h(huán)境帶來危害，甚至是致命危害。那我們該怎么平衡旅游業(yè)和環(huán)保之間的關系呢？ 4．C。推理判斷題。第一段中作者描述：每個月都會看到某個地方在建一座新賓館，每個月都會看到太平洋中的某個小島打出廣告：這兒是世上最后的一處天堂。由作者的語氣我們可以推斷出這樣的廣告已經沒有什么說服力了，故選C項。 5．D。推理判斷題。第三段作者引用了尼泊爾發(fā)展旅游業(yè)為例，其初衷是為當?shù)氐慕逃托l(wèi)生事業(yè)提供資金，但是很快這兒的人們自然環(huán)境就受到了旅游業(yè)的影響。現(xiàn)在這個國家正經受著旅游業(yè)帶來的痛苦，故選D項。 6．B。推理判斷題。根據第四段中的Once it was his back that bore the pain；now it is his smile that is exploited.”過去是他的脊背在承受痛苦，現(xiàn)在是人們開發(fā)利用他的微笑”推斷出現(xiàn)在他們?yōu)榱酥\生不得不用自己的微笑來取悅游客，故選B項。 7．D。推理判斷題。倒數(shù)第二段第二句說，野生生物的保護，國家公園的創(chuàng)建要和旅游業(yè)的發(fā)展同時進行，又根據倒數(shù)第一段第一句，未來十年，如何管理旅游業(yè)將決定旅游業(yè)和我們要去參觀的國家的命運。由此可推斷出D項符合題意。 8．C。觀點態(tài)度題。綜觀全文可知作者的態(tài)度是客觀的。A：樂觀的；B：懷疑的；C：客觀的；D：消極的。故選C項。
