　　广东海康县2017高考英语一轮阅读理解选练（二）及答案
　　2016高考训练题。阅读理解。
　　阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
　　Music lessons in early childhood bring about changes in the brain that  could improve its performance far into adulthood, researchers say. Brain scans of young adults showed those who had formal musical training before seven
　　had thicker brain areas dealing with hearing and self-awareness .The findings note how brain development can be influenced by the age when children start to learn a musical instrument , and how those changes can continue into later life.
　　"Early musical training benefits kids more than just making them enjoy music. It changes
　　the brain, which could bring about cognitive advances as well," said Yunxin Wang of Beijing Normal University.
　　“Our results suggest it’s better to start musical training before seven, which agrees with what most piano teachers recommend,” she added. She hoped the results might help parents decide when was the best for their children to learn an instrument.
　　The brain’s cortex(皮层) plays a leading role in one’s abilities, from thought and language to memory and attention. The area matures rapidly in the early years of life, and its development could be affected more if a person starts musical training before it fully matures.
　　Wang studied 48 Chinese students aged between 19 and 21 who had received formal music training for at least a year sometime between the ages of 3 and 15. Each had a scan to measure the thickness of the brain’s cortex.
　　After considering sex and the number of years spent having music lessons, Wang found that musical training that started before seven appeared to thicken areas of the brain involved in language skills and executive function, which is a person’s ability to plan and accomplish tasks.
　　“We’re not sure why these changes occur, but a reasonable explanation is that early starters might depend more on hearing clues(线索) when learning music, since it might be more difficult for younger children to read music,” Wang said.
　　1. According to the researchers, musical training before the age of seven can _______________.
　　A. contribute to future work.         B. create a successful life
　　C. develop all-round abilities         D. deal with puzzling problem
　　2. When conducting the research with the students, Wang __________.
　　A. tested their language abilities  
　　B. watched their musical performances
　　C. focused on school behavior and achievements
　　D. measured the thickness of the brain’s cortex
　　3. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that _____________.
　　A. it must be hard for kids to read music
　　B. kids are more likely to learn music by hearing
　　C. Wang’s explanation has been the most reasonable
　　D. Wang will research into the reasons for the brain change
　　4. For what purpose does the author write the text?
　　A. To describe the development of brain.
　　B. To challenge the previous discoveries.
　　C. To present the findings of the research.
　　D. To give advice on how to learn music.

　　2016高考训练题----阅读理解。
　　阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项。
　　PEOPLE may use the expression “birdbrain” in English to talt someone who is stupid, but crows prove that this is unfair. Now it has been discovered that crows may understand analogies（类推法） .
　　To test this ability in animals, scientists do “relational matching-to-sample (RMTS)”tests. If a pair was AA, for example, then picking BB to match it would be correct.
　　An international team led by Edward Wasserman in the US first trained two crows to match things by color, shape, and number in what is called“ identity matching-to-sample (IMTS)” , then moved onto RMTS.
　　For the IMTS test, the birds were put in a cage with a plastic tray that had three cards and two cups in it. The card in the middle was the sample card. The cups on either side were covered with the other two cards. One was the same as the sample, while the other wasn’ t. The cup with the card that matched the sample card contained two worms to eat.
　　In the second part of the experiment, the birds were tested with relational matching pairs. A card with two same- sized circles, for example, meant they should pick the test card with two same-sized squares and not two different-sized circles.
　　The birds did well in the more difficult test and picked the correct card more than three quarters of the time.
　　Wasserman was surprised that crows were able to solve the problem without any training in RMTS. He said in a news release: “Honestly, if it was only by force that the crows showed this learning, then it would have been an impressive result. But this was spontaneous.”
　　So perhaps it’ s time to stop saying ” birdbrain” permanently.
　　28. Why does the author mention the expression “birdbrain” in the opening paragraph?
　　A. To get the reader interested in the origins of the expression.
　　B. To urge people to stop saying that birds are stupid.
　　C. To introduce the topic of Edward Wasserman and his experiment.
　　D. To introduce recent findings about crow’ s intelligence.
　　29. Which of the following is TURE about the tests on the crows?
　　A. The birds did better in RMTS than in IMTS.
　　B. The birds were first made to do RMTS, then IMTS.
　　C. The birds picked almost all the correct cards in RMTS
　　D. In the IMTS test, the birds needed to identify the sample card to get rewards.
　　30. The underlined word“spontaneous”is closest in meaning ______.
　　A. natural B. creative C. typical D. brilliant
　　31. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
