　　2017高考英语阅读理解解析版汇编（26）
　　阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A.B.C和D项中，选出最佳选项。
　　The 400 phone messages said it all. Veterans(老兵) wanted to talk, and Jeff Beers, a military history buff and the son of a retired Navy man, was ready to listen. Beers had volunteered for the Veterans History Project, a program at the Library of Congress dedicated to preserving the oral histories of American’s 19 million veterans. Local newspapers listed Beer’s number, and the response was tremendous. He’s videotaped 52 vets ever since.
　　“Most of them are shocked that anyone would be interested in their small story,” says Beers, 33, an assistant engineer for the city of Poway, Calif. “They ask, ‘Why now?’ But it has to be now, before it’s too late.” The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs estimates that 1,847 veterans die each day.
　　Beers and the other volunteers are collecting the I-was-there detail. One of the most moving came from a World War II POW (prisoner of war): “He had to march 500 miles through the Black Forest in winter. They ate barp and slept at local farm.”
　　The WW II generation comprises(包含) most of the 700 histories gathered since the program began in 2001. But, says director Ellen Lovell, they want to hear from vets of every war. “I interviewed my brother-in-law, an army surgeon in Vietnam,” she says. “He said he shared things with me that he’s never told anyone.”
　　1. What do we know from the text about the veterans?
　　A. They live a very happy life after the war.
　　B. They often told their stories to others.
　　C. They were highly respected by people.
　　D. They are becoming fewer and fewer in numbers.
　　答案解析：答案为D。本题为细节推理题。由第二段最后一句话 “The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs estimates that 1,847 veterans die each day.”可知，每天有1847位老兵死去，也就意味着老兵的数目越来越少，故D选项正确。
　　2. How did the veterans feel when they were interviewed?
　　A. Happy. B. Sad. C. Surprised. D. Disappointed.
　　答案解析：答案为C。本题为细节题。由第二段首句 “Most of them are shocked that anyone would be interested in their small story,” 可知，老兵对于有人对他们的故事感兴趣感到非常吃惊，故答案为C。
　　3. What does the underlined word “it” (Paragraph 1) refer to?
　　A. Veterans wanted to talk. B. Jeff Beers was ready to listen.
　　C. The veterans had many stories. D. There were many phone messages.
　　答案解析：答案为A。本题为词义推断题。由第一段前面的内容 “The 400 phone messages said it all. Veterans wanted to talk, and Jeff Beers, a military history 2017高考英语阅读理解解析版汇编（27）
　　【2016高考训练】阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A.B.C和D项中，选出最佳选项。
　　Digging a Hole in China's Black Gold.
　　China's love affair with coal is set to last, but for investors the romance has come out of the relationship.
　　For the last few years, investors in China's coal section have been mining a rich seam(煤层). From the beginning of 2005 to the end of 2011, the level Qinhuangdao coal price rose 81%, supporting strong growth in profitability (利润)and enviable degree at mining majors like China Shenhua Energy.
　　But as any miner will tell you, the longer you work a seam, the more difficult it is to get value. China's coal prices have fallen nearly 10% in the last three months. A seasonal fall from the winter peak, and a cyclical（周期性的）slowdown brought about by China's slowing construction and money tightening, is only part of the picture. Those effects will fade, but coal miners will still have to battle against structural pressure for lower prices.
　　In 2008, China's 60 biggest miners the efficient excellences from a section with 9,000-plus firms accounted for just over half of civil production. Since then, the big have gotten bigger and the small are disappearing. Michael Parker, coal mining analyst at Sanford Bernstein, estimates in 2012 the top 60 miners will account for 80% of output.
　　The assumption has always been that it's the very low-cost little mining operations that will go to the wall, pushing prices up. In fact, Mr. Pares that it's small industrial operations working difficult seams, and with poor access to convey that will be the first to go. The exit of these high-cost means that spot prices will increasingly be set by bigger more efficient producers and that means pressure for prices to stay low.
　　With structural forces against a return to rising coal prices, investors in China's black gold should dig a huge stone hit their foot into a hole.
