On a hot African morning, Leila was lying on her stomach and an elephant was walking towards her. Leila waited. Then she pushed the button on her camera. “And I got my best photo of an elephant ever, by lying under my car,” Leila explained. “I wanted to get close to the elephants, but of course this was dangerous; they had their babies with them. So every morning I used to park my car in the open near the path (小道). They used to take the same path every morning when they left the water hole. After a week, they were used to seeing my car. So the next morning, I lay under it and got my photo!”

Many of the best wildlife photos come from good planning. In Africa, photographers set up their hides (隐匿处) near water holes. They also set up hides near forest paths, as animals use the same paths every night. For bird-watching, many lakes have hides. Inside the hides, bird-watchers can watch all day in the shade (荫处) out of the wind and rain.

Good wildlife photos are needed for books, postcards, magazines and newspapers. But a success rate of 1 in 20 is good.

1.Why did Leila lie under her car on the stomach?

A．Because she wanted to sleep.

B．Because she wanted to take photos but was afraid of the animals.

C．Because it’s easy to see the elephants.

D．Because it’s very comfortable.

2.How can photograpers take good photos?

A．By making good preparation.               B．By going into the forest at night.

C．By walking around the holes.               D．By going to the nearest lake.

3.Which of the following statements is right according to the passage?

A．All animals go to water holes at night.

B．Lakes are good places for bird-watching.

C．Leila used her car to prevent the sunshine.

D．Animaals pay no attention to photographers.

4.What can we know from the underlined sentence?

A．The successf rate of taking wildlife photos is 50% at most.

B．Photographers who take wildlife photos need more practice.

C．To take good wildlife photos is not difficult.

D．It’s hard to take good wildlife photos.

高一英语阅读理解中等难度题查看答案及解析

At this very moment you’re thirsty and hunting for something to drink. So you start walking towards the drinks machine at school. As you drink you hear your teacher say those frightening words: “Could I see you for a moment in the classroom, please?”

You can almost feel your blood pressure rise as you walk to your English class. She’s always picking on you. What can it be this time? You think of the test you did last Friday. Now your mind is racing, your heart is pounding, and your forehead is pouring with sweat. In situations like this you will often feel like running away but you may also feel like hitting someone on the nose.

Your teacher asks you to go into the class. “Here it comes,” you think. But what you hear is: “Well done. Your test was excellent.” You can hardly believe your ears.

Our fight or flight response is designed to protect us from tigers that would have once hidden in the woods around us, threatening(威胁) our survival. At times when our survival is threatened, there is no greater response to have on our side. When activated(刺激), the response causes stress hormones to pump through our body.

When we face very real dangers to our survival, it is invaluable. However, few of the “tigers” we face in our lives cause a serious physical threat to our existence. They cause us no end of stress, triggering(引发) the full activation of our fight or flight response. They tend to cause us to overreact to the situation in a counterproductive (事与愿违的) way. It is counterproductive to hit someone (the fight response) or run away (the flight response).

By recognizing the symptoms, we can begin to take steps to handle the stress overload. By learning to recognize the signals of fight or flight activation, we can avoid reacting excessively (过度地) to events and fears that are not life threatening. In doing so, we use this extra energy to help ourselves, borrowing the beneficial effects in order to change our emotional environment and deal productively with our fears, thoughts and potential dangers.

1.You feel nervous when walking to the classroom because ________.

A.you broke the school rules B.you failed the test last Friday

C.your teacher spoke to you loudly D.your teacher always blames you

2.What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?

A.The power of our fight or flight response.

B.How our fight or flight response works.

C.The benefits of our fight or flight response.

D.How we control our fight or flight response.

3.The underlined word “They” in Paragraph 5 probably refers to ________.

A.fierce tigers B.real dangers

C.dangers we face D.serious physical threats

4.A good understanding of our fight or flight response can help us ________.

A.get rid of unnecessary stress B.face real dangers bravely

C.find hidden dangers D.take threats seriously
