高三英语完型填空简单题查看答案及解析

What were you like as a teenager? I was a nightmare. I was rude to my parents, always stayed out late, never did my homework, hung out with the wrong people and made lots of bad decisions. Apparently, this is the age when teenagers are out of control and behave badly. Maybe，if you’re a teenager now, you think this is unfair criticism or it’s not your fault. Well, you might be right!

Experts have found that it’s a teenager’s brain that is to blame. Between the ages of approximately 13 to 19—a period known as adolescence—the brain is still developing in areas that control behavior. This has an influence on learning and multitasking(同时做多件事情), stress and memory, sleep, addiction, and decision-making. For parents, these consequences often manifest themselves in a variety of behaviors that they may have previously blamed on hormones or just moodiness(喜怒无常).

This is quite a new discovery, according to Professor Sarah-Jayne Blakemore, who, speaking on the BBC radio program The Life Scientific, says, “when I was at university, the dogma(教条) in the text books was that the vast majority of brain development goes on in the first few years of life and nothing much changes after mid-childhood. That dogma is completely false.”

According to Professor Sarah-Jayne Blakemore, students’ not being able to get their homework done on time has something to do with our prefrontal cortex—that’s the part of our brain right at the front, just behind the forehead. She says, “it’s involved in a whole range of very high-level cognitive(认知的) tasks such as decision making and planning—we know that this region is undergoing very large amounts of development during the adolescent years.” This is the part of the brain, mainly involved in planning, and, for a teenager, this hasn’t developed yet. So getting organized to do their homework, for example, can come as a bit of a challenge.

I wish I’d known about this because instead of telling my teacher I’d left my homework on the bus or that the dog had eaten it. Now I could say, “Sorry sir, my brain isn’t developed enough for the cognitive task of planning my homework.”

1.What is the main idea of the text?

A. The growing pains of teenagers.

B. The dogma in the text hooks was false.

C. A new discovery about the teenager’s brain.

D. The students’ new challenge of doing their homework.

2.According to the author, why is it a bit of challenge for students to do their homework?

A. The students are moody.

B. Hormones are to blame.

C. There is too much homework.

D. The brains of the students haven’t been developed.

3.What does the underlined word manifest mean?

A. Develop. B. Show.

C. Abandon. D. Experience.

4.What can we know from the text?

A. The vast majority of brain doesn’t develop after mid-childhood.

B. All of the students are nightmares for parents during adolescence.

C. Prefrontal cortex is undergoing large amounts of development during childhood.

D. The prefrontal cortex has something to do with many high-level cognitive tasks.

What were you like as a teenager? I was a _______. I was rude to my parents, always stayed out late, never did my homework, hung out with the wrong people and made many _______ decisions.

Let's pretend we're sailing down the Rhine River on a pleasure boat. The Rhine is one of the main waterways of Germany, and the river traffic is heavy. It's interesting to watch the many boats going up and down the river. But the river traffic is not nearly so interesting as the beautiful scenery along the banks and hillsides. The boat is passing many old castles. We can see people working in the vineyards (葡萄园) on the hillsides. There are vineyards as far as the eye can see. Wine from the Rhine Valley is famous all over the world.

Suddenly our boat slows down and begins to turn a little. We are coming to a sharp bend in the river. On our right we can see a rocky cliff over 400 feet high. At first it looks quite ordinary, but there is nothing ordinary about it. There are many stories, poems, and songs about the cliff. We are looking at the Lorelei. Then someone on the boat begins to sing in German, the song of the Lorelei. It is a song about a beautiful siren (妖妇) who has lured(引诱) many sailors to their deaths.

The siren is supposed to sit on the rock combing her long golden hair and singing. The sailors who hear her forget to steer（掌舵）, and the current of river hurls (掀翻) their boats on the rocks and dashes（猛撞）them to pieces.

Soon other people on the boat begin to sing. The beautiful song adds to special magic to the moment, and you begin to realize why so many people have made this trip down the Rhine to see the rock of the Lorelei.

1.The most interesting thing to those who are sailing down the Rhine River on a pleasure boat is________.

A. to watch many boats going up and down the river

B. to see the beautiful scene along the banks and hillsides

C. to hear a song about beautiful siren

D. to see a beautiful siren combing her golden hair

2. Which of the following is famous all over the world?

A. The Rhine River.                 B. The River Traffic.

C. Wine from the Rhine Valley.        D. The Lorelei.

A. on our right when coming to a sharp bend           B. on the Rhine hillsides

C. from the Rhine Valley                     D. on the boat

4. The song of the Lorelei is about________.

A. The Rhine wine

B. a rocky cliff
