Unit 2 Cloning李仕才一、阅读理解AEnjoying a musical performance no longer requires a costly ticket or a trip to a theater. These days, musicians are performing in private homes, at haircutting shops, at airports... even on ferry boats.Musicians like house concerts. At music clubs, they often have to perform over loud conversation or deal with people who have had too much alcohol. People at house concerts are more focused on listening to the music.Just a few hours before the Bombadils started singing at the O' Hair Salon, Lindsay was cutting hair and Tamera was doing facials. Then, they moved chairs and microphones to create a small performance space. The Bombadils made music in the front part of the hair salon, near the hairdryers and make­up tables.“T his is our first show at a hair salon,” Sarah Frank of the Bombadils told concertgoers at last week's performance. Frank said she and band members, Luke Fraser and Kaitlyn Raitz had a great time “interacting” with the audience.Concerts in people's homes, or small businesses such as O' Hair's, are becoming more popular, musicians say. “There is a more relaxed atmosphere,” said Domenic Cicala, a musician who opened up his O' Hair Salon to concerts. “People really get to know the artists.”At house concerts, people get time before and after concerts to meet the performers. Often, the hosts or guests will provide food and drink.“People really like listening to music in the living room of a friend,” said Matt Hart, with Aubrey Zoli making up the Local Stran gers, a folk­rock group based in Seattle. At many such concerts, the musicians do not need microphones. Yet, every word of their songs can be heard.【文章大意】本文主要介绍了现代音乐会在举办场地的选择上更加多样化。

Unit 2 The Olympic Games第四节完形填空题常见问题与解决方法完形填空是学生最犯怵的题型之一,由于文章的残缺性和不连贯性使得很多学生难以正确理解文章的内容,所以导致大量失分。

根据完形填空测试特点,阅卷老师无论是在校研究生或老师,都非常一致地认为,在做完形填空时,学生非常容易出现的错误如下:问题一:没有注意上下文的内在联系,而只拘泥于个别词句的意思。

问题二:基础知识不牢固,对同义词、近义词的辨析能力不强,以及对一词多义掌握不全面。

问题三:文章的意思无法准确掌握,把握不好文章主旨大意而大量失分。

下面我来一一讲解:问题一:没有注意上下文的内在联系,而只拘泥于个别词句的意思问题描述与分析完形填空出题的理论依据是,人类在阅读的时候,由于阅读思维的惯性,即使信息残缺也可以得到完整的理解,但是因为个别学生的思维习惯并没有得到很好地养成,所以有时太局限于个别词句,而没有上下联系,造成理解的偏误,因而失分。

Unit 2 Cloning阅读理解组块专练——练速度(限时:30分钟)Ⅰ. 阅读理解AAt your next meeting, wait for a pause in conversation and try to measure howlong it lasts.Among English speakers, chances are that it will be a second or two at most.But while this pattern may be universal,our awareness of silence differs dramatically across cultures.What one culture considers a confusing or awkward pause may be seen by othersas a valuable moment of reflection and a sign of respect for what the last speakerhas said. Research in Dutch (荷兰语) and also in English found that when a silencein conversation stretches to four seconds, people start to feel uneasy. In contrast, a separate study of business meetings found that Japanese people are happy withsilences of 8.2 seconds—nearly twice as long as in Americans' meetings.In Japan, it is recognised that the best communication is when you don't speakat all.It's already a failure to understand each other by speaking because you're repairing that failure by using words.In the US, it may originate from the history of colonial (殖民地的) America as a crossroads of many different races. When you have a complex of difference, it'shard to establish common understanding unless you talk and there's understandablya kind of anxiety unless people are verbally engaged to establish a common life.This applies also to some extent to London.In contrast,when there's more homogeneity,_perhaps it's easier for some kinds of silence to appear. For example, among your closest friends and family it's easier to sit in silence than with people you're less well acquainted with.语篇解读:本文主要讲述了谈话中的沉默文化。

Alex Dzyuba, 31, who runs his own IT firm, recently moved to New York with his family due to work. For nearly three weeks, Alex and his wife, Kelly, were busy cleaning and decorating the new home to make it cozy for the kids. They have three cute children:two­year­old Anne, six­year­old Vicky, and Isabelle, 11. Anne often sits on the windowsill (窗台) of her sixth floor bedroom, where she likes to play with her toys. There is a variety of toys and dolls for the little girl. The window, overlooking Mosholu Ave. in Riverdale, was never open and her mum Kelly thought that Anne was too small to work the latch(插销). However, Alex insisted that when things settled down, they should notify the homeowner that they needed window guards and safety bars to protect Anne and Vicky.One rainy evening, Anne, acpanied by Isabelle, was playing with her toys in her bedroom as usual, while their mother busied herself with doing the housework, Anne and Isabelle shared the small bedroom, where Anne's name is painted in rainbow colours on the wall. After a while, Isabelle wanted to listen to the rain — so she opened the window. Minutes later, Isabelle felt a bit hungry and left the room for a moment to get a slice of pizza from the dining table, leaving Anne alone. Instantly, she heard a thundering sound and the cries of her younger sister ing from five floors below.Isabelle turned pale and realised something went wrong. She rushed into the bedroom, looked out of the window and saw Anne was on the awning (雨篷) over the entrance to the building. Her heart sank and she felt so scared that she screamed. Hearing her daughter's screams from a room away, Kelly ran into Anne's room and was too shocked to speak. “It's all my fault, Mum. I shouldn't have opened that window.” Isabelle cried hard. It felt like a nightmare but Kelly managed to keep calm. “We need to go downstairs to get Anne down from the awning, the sooner the better!”注意:续写词数应为150左右。

The father said,“Look! There’s a horseshoe. Pick it up and put it in your bag.” Thomas said,“It isn’t worth the trouble.” His father said nothing but he picked it up himself. When they got to a nearby town, they had a rest. There the farmer sold the horseshoe and with the few pennies he bought some cherries(樱桃).The father and the son continued their way. The sun was well up in the sky, and there wasn’t a house or even a tree where they could have a rest. Thomas felt too thirsty to walk on. At this time, his father dropped a cherry on the ground and Thomas picked it up quickly and ate it. After a while, his father dropped another cherry and once again, his son lost on time in picking it up and putting it in his mouth.And so they went on. The old farmer dropped the cherries and the son picked them up. When Thomas had eaten up all the cherries, his father said to him,“My drarson, if you had bent(弯腰) down early to pick up that horseshoe, it would not have been necessary for you to bend so many times for the cherries. Always remember the lesson that he who does not worry about the little things will find that he cannot do the great things.”1.Who picked up the horseshoe at last? .A.The sonB.The fatherC.Both the father and the sonD.Neither the father nor the son2.The farmer bought with the money after he sold the horseshoe.A.some breadB.some watere cherriesD.some pennies3.When the son refused to pick up the horseshoe, the father .A.beat the sonB.said nothingC.felt very happyD.became very angry4.From the story, we can learn that .A.cherries are so delicious that most of us like to eat themB.a horseshoe is so expensive that it can bring us a lot of moneyC.if we want to eat cherries, we must pick up a horseshoeD.if we don’t worry about the little things, we cannot do the great thingsCEarthquakes are something that people fear. There are some places that have few or no earthquakes. Most places in the world,however,have them regularly (有规律地)).Countries that have a lot of earthquakes are usually quite mountainous.The earthquake which was talked about most in the United States was in San Francisco in 1906. Over 700 people died in it. The strongest one in North America was in 1964. It happened in Alaska.Strong earthquakes are not always the ones that kill the most people. In 1755,one of the strongest earthquakes ever recorded was felt in Portugal. Around 2,000 people died.In 1923,a very strong earthquake hit Tokyo,the Yo-kohama area of Japan. One hundred and forty thousand people died. Most of them died in fires which followedthe earthquake.One of the worst earthquakes ever was in China in 1976. It killed a large number of people.The worst earthquake ever recorded was also in China, in which about 80,000 people were killed or injured. This earthquake happened in 2008.Earthquakes worry people a lot. The reason is that we often do not know when they are coming. People can not prepare for them.1.Earthquakes happen .A.in all the places in the worldB.only in the countries that have a lot of mountainsC.regularly in most places in the worldD.only in a few places along the mountains2.When and where was the worst earthquake ever recorded?A.1964; Alaska.B.2008;ChinaC.1923; Japan.D.1976;China.3.According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?A.The stronger the earthquake is, the more people are killed.B.Earthquakes can cause fires.C.People still don’t know when an earthquake will come.D.Earthquakes often come unexpectedly (出乎意料地).4.What may be talked about in the paragraph followed?A.How do earthquakes worry people?B.What will people do to prepare for earthquakes?C.How can we save people when earthquakes happen?D.How do earthquakes happen?DA new study has found that social media could be affecting the sleep of young adults.The study is a project of researchers at the University of Pittsburgh's School of Medicine. They found that young people who often use social media are more likely to suffer from sleep disorders than those who use social media less. The researchers say doctors should ask young adults about their use of social media when treatingsleep issues.“This is one of the first pieces of evidence that social media use really can influence your sleep.” said Jessica C Levenson. She was the lead author of a report on the study.The researchers set out to examine the connection between social media use and sleep among young adults.. Levenson noted that these young adults are possibly the first “generation to grow up with social media. ”The researchers wanted to find out how often young people used social media sites like Face book, Twitter, Credit and Tumbler. For the study, they gave questionnaires to nearly 1,800 adults, aged 19 to 32. On average, members of the study group used social media sites one hour a day. They also "visited various social media 30 times per week. ”Thirty percent of the study's participants reported having serious problems with sleeping. Those people who used social media a lot were three times more likely to have a sleep disorder. And those who spent the most time on social media were two times as likely to suffer from sleep disturbances.Levenson said the number of times a person visits social media is a better predictor of sleep problems than overall time spent on social media. If this is true, she adds, then practices that stop such behaviors may be the most effective.1.What's the main idea of the text?A.The researchers focus on social media.B.The researchers manage to handle sleep problems.C.Social media affects sleep.D.Doctors treat young patients.2.When treating sleep problems, doctors are advised to________________ .A.offer some advice about giving up social mediaB.ask the patients about young adults’ use of social mediaC.give young adults some medicineD.ask about the patients' living conditions3.How did the researchers mainly carry out the study?A.By doing online research.B.By doing questionnaires.C.By collecting published data.D.By giving an example.4.What can be inferred from the text?A.Men are more likely to suffer from a sleep disorder than women.B.People often using social media are less likely to have a sleep disorder.ing computers less helps avoid sleep problems completely.D.Sleep problems can be determined by the times of a person visiting social media.5、 Some people learn a second language easily. Other people have trouble learning a new language. How can you help yourself learn a new language,such as English?①__________◆Be patient.You do not have to understand everything all at once. ②__________We can learn from our mistakes.◆Practice your English.For example,write in a journal(日记) every day. You will get used to writing in English,and you will feel comfortable expressing your ideas in English.

I should have known that my new job at the hospital was too good to be true. Throughout the day, rumors (传言) warned that the newest employee from each department would be laid off. I was the newest one in the trainingdepartment.My boss appeared. “You probably know we’re cutting back,〞he said. “Administrat ion wants us to offer outplacement classes to help those employees find other jobs, showing them how to act in an interview, for example.〞“Fine,〞 I answered unwillingly, not knowing what else to say.I decided to go home early that day. In the hall, I met the lady who brought us cookies every Friday. She was a little woman with gray hair. Only her head and the top of her green apron were visible over the cart (小车) loaded with cleaning supplies. At least she had a job!At the final meeting, laid-off workers formed a line at the door. A colleague whispered, “I can’t believe our Cookie Lady is being laid off. We’ll miss her as much as we’ll miss her cookies.〞 When the colleague spoke to her in Spanish, I knew my classes would be useless for her and I realized how much better off was than this poor woman.I decided to do something for her. I wrote to a newspaper expressing how I felt about the unselfishness of the Cookie Lady who needed a job. A few days later, my article appeared in the newspaper and the Cookie Lady was allowed to stay in herposition.

A new survey also shows more than 28 million people in the UK regularly get no more than seven hours sleep a night. Prof Richard Wiseman, who commissioned the YouGov poll described the findings as "extremely worrying". Of the 2,149 adults questioned, 78% said they used electronic devices before going to bed. This rose to 91% among the 18 to 24-year-oldsquestioned in the survey.Getting less than seven hours sleep a night is below the recommended guidelines, and is associated with a range of problems, including an increased risk of weight gain, heart attacks, diabetes and cancer. "The blue light from these devices suppresses(压制)the production of the sleep-inducing hormone melatonin, so it's important to avoid them before bed time," said Prof Richard Wiseman, from the University of Hertfordshire.Everyone needs different amounts of sleep, but adults are generally thought to require a minimum of seven to eight hours a night. Teenagers are recommended to get more, about nine hours. The proportion(比例)of people thought to be getting too little sleep had risen by a fifth since a "bedroom poll" conducted last year by the National Sleep Foundation.Last week revealed opticians were warning that overuse of smartphones may be increasing people's risk of eye damage. Optician Andy Hepworth said: "Blue violet light is potentially harmful to the back of your eyes. "So over a long period of time it can damage your eyes. When you're looking at a smart phone, the light peaking out of that is blue violet. The news came as a survey of 2,000 people suggests under-25s check their phones 32 times a day.1.The purpose of the passage is to ______.A.stress that people don’t use smartphones.B.remind people of enough sleep.C.ask people not sleep too much.D.tell people not to use smartphoness before bed2.Which of the following statements is TURE according to the passage?A.According to a new survey, more than 28 million people in the UK get more than seven hours sleep a night.B.More than 90% young people expose themselves to the blue light from smartphones before bed.C.Of the 2,149 adults questioned, 91% said they used electronic devices before going to bed.D.The news came as a survey of 2,000 people suggests under-25s check their phones30 times a day.3.According to what Andy Hepworth said, overuse of smartphones may be increasing people's risk of __________.A.weight gainB.cancerC.eye damageD.heart attacks4.Teenagers are generally thought to get sleep of _________ a night.A.about 9 hoursB.7-8 hoursC.less than 7 hoursD.more than 10 hours4、Many of us have read stories or seen films about space creatures. They come to the Earth in spaceships that look like flying saucers. These space­creatures do not look like human beings at all,but they are usually very intelligent(聪明).In one film,they were tiny little men with large heads. When they landed on the Earth,they knew exactly what to do. They went straight to the President's palace and made him their prisoner!The stories about space creatures are,of course,not true. Space­creatures exist only in story books and films,just like giants and fairies. But many scientists are asking this question—“Is there life on other planets?〞There are millionsof planets in the universe,and the Earth is just one of them. Could there be living things on other planets? Many people believe that the other planets in the universe are most suitable for living things.Are scientists sure that there is no life on other planets?At this stage we still cannot be sure. All the planets,except the moon and Mars,are so far away that it will take hundreds of years for our spaceships to reach them. 1.The BEST title for the passage is“________〞.A.Scientific Wonders—Space­creatures B.Is There Life on Other Planets? C.Are Scientists Sure? D.Stories about Space­creatures 2.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage? A.The stories about space­creatures are true. B.Space­creatures are in stories. C.Space­creatures are in films. D.Many scientists are asking if there is life on other planets.3.In the passage “straight〞 means________.A.upright B.level C.directly D.honest5、根据短文内容,从短文后的选项里面选出能填入空白处的最正确选项。

Suddenly he saw a beautiful painting lying on the floor. John picked it up and gave it to the director〔负责人〕 of the museum.The director called several museums to check and see if it was a stolen painting, but no one claimed(认领) it. So the director decided to hang it in the museum. Allthe experts 〔专家〕came to look at the painting. Each one said it was beautiful and had very deep meaning. The director was proud to have such a painting in his museum and congratulated John on his discovery.Some weeks later a woman and her little son came to the museum. While they were looking at the new painting, the little boy began to cry. The director went over and asked him.“Why are you crying?〞The child pointed to the painting and said, “That’s my painting on the wall and I want it back.〞“Yes,〞said his mother, “he left it on t he floor a few weeks ago. If you look carefully, you can see his name on the painting.〞1. John was perhaps _______.A. a painterB. an expert on paintingC. a visitor to the museumD. a man working in the museum2.

Everybody knows that. Yet many people do not seem to know that memory〔记忆力〕 works in the same way. When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong. If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault(过错). But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents are to blame(受责备), and few of us know that it is just his own fault. Have you ever found that some people can’t read or write but usually they have better memories? This is because they cannot read or write and they have to remember things; they cannot write down in a little notebook. They have to remember days, names, songs and stories; so their memory is the whole time being exercised. So if you want to have a good memory, learn from the people: Practice remembering.1. The main reason for one’s poor memory is that _______.A. his father or mother may have a poor memoryB. He does not use his name or legsfor some timeC. his memory is not often usedD. he can’t read or write2. If you do not use your arms or legs for some time _______.A. you can’t use them any moreB. they will become strongerC. they become weak and won’t become strong until you use them again.D. they will become neither stronger nor weaker3. Which of the following is NOT true?A. Your memory works in the same way as your arms or legs.B. Your memory, like your arms or legs, becomes weak if you don’t give it enough chance for practice.C. Don’t learn how to read and write if you want to have a better m emory.D. A good memory comes from more practice.4. Some people can’t read or write, but they usually have better memories, because _______.A. they have save much troubleB. they have saved much time to remember thingsC. they have to use their memo ries all the timeD. they can’t write everything in a little notebook5. Which is the best title for this passage?A. Don’t Stop Using Your Arms Or LegsB. How To Have a Good MemoryC. Strong Arms And Good MemoriesD. Learn From the People4、 On a college camping trip, curiosity about waves and sand caused Rob Thieler to study shorelines around the world. Thirty years later and now a U.S. Geological Survey research geologist, Thieler, is combining science and smartphone technology to help study an endangered bird, the Atlantic coast piping plover.The piping plover is a shorebird that breeds(繁殖)along the Atlantic Coast, the Great Lakesand the Great Plains. Rising sea levels associated with climate change, as well as increased development in their beach habitats(栖息地), threaten the species(物种). To help track changes in piping plover habitats, Thieler developed a free app called iPlover in 2021. This is a marked change from the typical way scientists collect data, which involves gathering information using specialized equipment or writing in notebooks and then putting into spreadsheets.Since releasing iPlover, scientists have gathered data across 1500 km of breeding range. Thatequals about a third of the distance across the U.S., which is a large area to cover for only two thousand breeding pairs of piping plovers on the east coast. Instead of having to travel and spend days at each site, a number of cooperators in the field use the app to collect and send data, allowing scientists to gather data more efficiently. It also allows them to collect data at the same time during each breeding season, providing a better picture of changes that happen over longer periods of time. And fast, centralized access means scientists can look at data quickly to get a real-time idea of where and how piping plovers are using their habitats.While iPlover is used by trained field staff, other apps like the U. S. Geological Survey’s web-based “iCoast—Did the Coast Change?〞 invite citizen scientists to identify c oastal changes by comparing bird’s-eye-view photographs taken before and after storms. All the information scientists and citizen scientists alike collect helps federal and state agencies create policy plans for addressing climate change impacts (影响) worldwide.1.What can we know about the piping plover?A.Its behaviour is changing.B.Its habitat is growing bigger.C.Its living environment is becoming worse.D.Its breeding is limited to the Atlantic Coast.2.Why did Thieler develop iPlover?A.To study shorelines across America.B.To advance information technology.C.To find out global climate change.D.To monitor changes of piping plover habitats.3.Which of the following benefits the shorebirds?A.The camping equipment.B.Research on smartphones.C.The changeable coast.D.Progress in technology.4.What would be the best title of the text?A.Protecting Endangered ShorebirdsB.Rob Thieler, a Creative ScientistC.IPlover, Tool for Training Field StaffD.Differences Between IPlover and ICoast5、How to Discover Your TalentTalent tends to refer to that inborn skill that everyone seems to be born with.Revisit your childhood. A good way to figure out where your talents lie is togo back to your This is often the time when you had plans that weren’t limited by what people tend to think of as ‘reality’.Consider what it is you do when you lose track of time. One of the chief things you can do is focus on what you love to do so much that you have a tendency to forgeteverything else for a You might have to research a bit deeper into the things you enjoy to discover what makes you feel satisfied.Sometimes, when you’re having difficulty seeing clearly, it’s g ood to get an outside opinion. Your friends and family members know you well and they should be able to offer you some insights into the areas they think you’re talented in.Try new things. Especially if you’re not sure what your talents might be, you shou ld get out and try new things. This way you’re more likely to hit on what itquest for your own talent you should look into the talents of other people.A. It’s true that havi ng a talent can help you in lifeB.
