一轮复习阅读材料Unit20 New Frontiers阅读下列文章，完成阅读任务AIn the future, the Internet will be different from what it is now. There will be many more websites. It is predicted that in the year 2100, there will be hundreds of billions of websites. This means that the use of search engines will become much 1 (importance). And there will also be many more sites in different languages. This means that on every proper website, therewill be 2 (link) with the language you want.Another prediction on the Internet is 3 data transmission (传输) speed will increase 4 (global). According to Akamai Technologies, the average global data transmission speed in late 2009 5 (be) 1.7 megabits per second. Compare that to the record for data transmission speed set by Bell Labs：100 billion megabits per second. 6 that speed, you could transmit 400 DVDs worth of data every second. That's 7 enormous gap between what's currently possible and what's commercially available. But as time 8 (pass) , the costs of producing super-high-speed networks will decrease.In the future, people will live under the sea and the housing shortage will 9 (solve). There will be lots of glass domes (穹状建筑物) under the sea, 10 allow people to look all around into the sea. Air will be provided via air pipes which lead to the open air. You can travel from one dome to another via a kind of submarine which will also be made of glass. The domes will be so beautiful and the view under the sea will be so impressive that many people will prefer to live under water, and less people will prefer to live on land. This will have a positive effect on the environment on land.In the future we won't use oil or gas as energy any more. We will make use of sunlight, water and wind. Cars will run on water. Just fill your tank with water, and you can drive further than you could drive with the same amount of gasoline. Also, the exhaust won't be damaging to the environment, because it'll just be water vapor. So the water cycle won't change, we'll keep the same amount of water on the earth, and we won't run out of water. Also, all energy will be supplied by natural sources: sunlight, wind and water.Task1: Fill in the blanksTask2：Summarize the main idea of the passage.Task3: Choose the best answers1．What can we know about the Internet in the future from the first two paragraphs?A．It will be more important to use search engines.B．Most of the websites will be designed in English.C．People not knowing a foreign language will find it hard to surf the Internet.D．The gaps between developed countries and developing countries in Internet usage will be great 2．Why are super-high-speed networks not available to the public at present?A．Because the cost is too high. B．Because there are technical difficulties. C．Because Bell Labs doesn't want to sell its technique.D．Because governments haven't recognized their value.3．The underlined word “exhaust”in Paragraph 4 probably refers to “________”．A．oil product B．waste air C．solar energy D．wind energy 4．What can we infer from the text?A．The Internet is the most advanced invention in history.B．Water will run out sooner than we have expected.C．Houses under the sea will be made from metal.D．Sunlight, wind and water will benefit people more in the future.BWould you like to live in a city where buildings turn the lights off for you, where self-driving cars find the nearest parking space, and where even the rubbish bins know when they're full?Although it might sound like science fiction, living in a “smart” city like this could happen sooner than you think.Towns we have lived in for centuries are being upgraded，while completely new cities arebeing built.One such place is Songdo in South Korea. Every home there will have a built-in “telepresence” system－allowing users to control the heating and locks; take part in video conferences；and receive education, healthcare and government services.Around the city, escalators(自动扶梯) will only move when someone is on them, and offices and schools will all be connected to the network.The digital mastermind(策划者) behind Songdo is the company Cisco. Indeed, technology firms around the world such as IBM, Siemens and Microsoft are already selling software to solve a range of city problems, from water leaks and air pollution to traffic jams. For example, IBM is gathering traffic data in Singapore which it uses to predict where traffic jams will occur—an hour before they happen.So what is all this smart technology for? Many hope all this connectedness will make cities greener, more sustainable(可持续的), and more efficient.And with 75% of the world's population predicted to live in cities by 2050, the transport system and emergency services will need to modernise to cope with all the new arrivals.But making cities smarter is only part of the solution，according to Dan Hill, chief executive(主管)of research firm Fabrica. He said，“We don't make cities to be efficient, we make cities for culture, commerce, community—all of which are very inefficient.”In the rush in order to make cities perform better, we could be missing their greatest asset(财富). “It is going to be smart citizens that make smart cities，”He said.Task1: Give a title to the passage:Task2: Choose the best answers1．Which of the following is TRUE of smart cities?A．They are unrealistic science fiction. B．They are already being built.C．They need to be upgraded at present. D．They are not suitable to live in.2．Citizens of Songdo will use their “telepresence” systems to do the following EXCEPT ________.A．control heating system B．attend teleconferencesC．recycle water efficiently D．receive government services3．IBM has designed a software in Singapore to ________.A．forecast weather condition B．solve air pollutionC．protect water resources D．predict traffic jams4．What will happen halfway through the 21st century?A．3/4 of the world's population are expected to live in cities.B．All the cities will be greener and more efficient.C．The present transport system remains to be well operated.D．Emergency services will be completely modernised.CAs a design student in Detroit，Veronika Scott was worried about the increasing numbers of homeless people suffering deeply during the cold winters.At the age of 21，she created The Detroit Empowerment Plan not to solve homelessness，but to provide much-needed warmth to the city's 20,000 street homeless people by designing a sleeping-bag coat.It is self-heated，waterproof(防水的)，and transforms into a sleeping bag at night.It's made by a group of homeless women who are paid，fed and housed while creating these coats made for those living on the streets.The focus is on the humanitarian system to create jobs for those that desire them and coats for those that need them at no cost.The goal is to employ，educate，and instill (灌输)pride.The importance is not with the product but with the people.Veronika Scott is a product design student at the College for Creative Studies.When she was working in studio class，a humanitarian group came in to sponsor the studio.They said“to design to fill a need”．Detroit has a pretty large number of people，about 20,000 living on the streets.She spent three days a week，every week，for five months working in a homeless shelter.The people there became part of the entire design.When the term ended，the project did not.She continued the project not just because she was crazy about it but because actually people needed it.She realized she had to take it to the next level and make it a system.On the beginning the empowerment plan was total about the coat. She could produce somecoats by her but she really wanted to reach out to people who need jobs. Now the importance of the project lies not within the product，and but within the people who are involved and affecting by the system. Thus it is one way to break the homeless cycle by giving homeless woman jobs while in the shelter. In this way they can earn money and find a place to live . More important, they can gain back their independent for themselves and their loved one .Task1: Find the ten mistakes in the last paragraph.Task2: Choose the best answers1．Veronika Scott's sleeping-bag coat ________.A．is very expensive B．has many functionsC．is mainly used at night D．is made by some students2．What first drove Veronika Scott to create The Detroit Empowerment Plan?A．Her studio class. B．The visiting group.C．Her college teachers. D．The homeless people.3．People CANNOT get ________ through the empowerment plan.A．clothing to wear B．houses to live inC．family to feed D．jobs for independenceTask3: What’s the main idea of the passage?DQuicker and faster 3-D printers have allowed not just amazing objects to be created, but have started to affect how doctors treat patients.We've put together a list of some of the most amazing medical breakthroughs made possible with 3-D printing.Life-Saving AirwayIn 2013, doctors created a new airway for Kaiba Gionfriddo, a boy born with an airway that kept collapsing (萎陷). To save his life doctors printed tiny tubes to join together in different shapes and sizes until one finally worked for Kaiba. It was placed in Kaiba's bronchus (支气管) so that it no longer collapsed. Even more remarkably, once the plant was placed it could stay there. It's designed to eventually be absorbed into the body.New “Bionic” HandsOne of the most remarkable ways 3-D printing is now being used is as a way to create prosthetics (假肢). A boy born without an arm named Alex was able to get a new “bionic” hand thanks to it. Last year a college student spent 8 weeks coming up with a special prosthetic design that only cost a few hundred dollars in materials. He said he wanted to create a prosthetic far cheaper than other choices that can run tens of thousands of dollars.A Practice HeartIn Seattle, doctors have been able to use 3-D printing technology to “practice” risky operations so that they will face fewer surprises in the operating room. Kami Sutton was born with her heart “in the wrong place”. For a recent operation her doctor was able to take many scans of Sutton's heart and print out a model. “Kami's heart is truly one-of-a-kind，” Dr. Stephan Seslar, a heart disease specialist said. “Operating on her without understanding the structure of her heart better could be very dangerous.”A New SkullA U．K. man was able to have part of his skull rebuilt thanks to a 3-D printer. Stephen Power broke his cheek bones in a crash. To help Power his doctors instead created 3-D bones all carefully printed in the shape of his face. “This is really the first time we've taken it to this stage, where everything has been planned and modeled in advance — and worked sweetly，” said Adrian Sugar, a doctor.Task1: What kind of writing is the passage? Where is it likely to be read? Who do you think are interested in the passage?Task2: Choose the best answers1 ．What is special about the 3-D printed airway?A．It uses high-tech materials. B．It varies in shapes and sizes.C．It can be absorbed by the body. D．It can prevent any disease in the airway. 2．What is the advantage of the new “bionic” hand?A．Its price. B．Its effects. C．Its materials. D．Its shape design. 3．How can 3-D printing technology help doctors in the operating room?A．It helps them get better scans. B．It guarantees the success of operations. C．It enables them to practice and learn more. D．It helps them to deal with patients' anxiety. 4．What does Adrian Sugar think of the new skull printed by 3-D technology?A．He has doubts about it. B．He thinks highly of it.C．It needs to be better planned. D．It functions well but needs improving.EPupils don't often think their teachers really exist outside the school gates; now robot classroom assistants could make this a reality. Almost 30 egg-shaped robots have started teaching English at primary schools in South Korea.The 3.3-foot-high machines have a TV panel (仪表盘), which displays a female face, and can wheel around the classroom while speaking to the students. The robots are also able to read books and dance to music, moving their heads and arms. But despite appearances, the robots are not autonomous beings. They are actually controlled remotely by English teachers living in the Philippines, who can see and hear the children by a remote control system. Cameras then detect the teachers' facial expressions and reflect them on the panel face.Apart from reading books, the robots use pre-programmed software to sing songs and play alphabet games with the children. The kids seem to love them since the robots look cute and interesting. Some adults also express interest, saying they may feel less nervous talking to robots than to a real person.The robots are still being tested. But officials might consider hiring them full time, if scientists upgrade them and make them easier to handle and more affordable. “Having robots in the classroom makes the students more active in class, especially shy ones afraid of speaking out to human teachers，” said Education official Kim Mi-Young.Some may be sent to remote rural areas of South Korea avoided by foreign English teachers. The robots, which cost ￡5,600 each, will provide extra support for teachers, but not replace them. Ms Mi-Young added, “Well-educated, experienced Filipino teachers are far cheaper than any teachers elsewhere, including South Korea. But robot teachers won't complain about health insurance, sick leave and severance package (遣散费), or leave in three months for a better-paying job in Japan ... All you need is a repair and upgrade every once in a while.”Task1: Give a title to the passageTask2: Choose the best answres1．What is the main idea of the passage?A．The most advanced robots go public. B．People find a good way to learn English. C．Robots teach English in class. D．Improving the relationship between humans and robots. 2．What does the underlined word “autonomous” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A．Unable to speak.B．Acting independently.C．Being under repair. D．Having memories.3．According to the passage, the robot teachers .A．can speak two different foreign languagesB．can wheel around the classroomC．have been hired full time to teach English in South KoreaD．demand more than human teachers4．What can we learn from the passage?A．The robot teachers will take the place of human teachers.B．The English level of South Korea children has decreased because of the robot teachers.

So when her teacher Andrea Smeeton received information about the national challenge, Smeeton said she immediately had one student in mind.“I knew she would love the challenge and that she would go way beyond in her search，” Smeeton said. “She immediately started researching bone density(密度) of astronauts and how to have food on Mars.”“My design will ensure the safety of the astronauts but also make sure their comfort is out of this world，” Dobek says.Dobek’s design calls for building the MSS or Mars Storage Station to put the supplies in. It also includes the SGF or SelfGrowing Farm, and she details how it would work with the elements on Mars.Then there is physical and leisure activity for the astronauts under Dobek’s design. A simulator(模拟装置) allows astronauts to choose their exercise machine and virtual reality environment. Rooms have circular ceilings so astronauts will be able to watch downloaded shows and even see places on Earth, such as their homes.“I want to tell other kids to follow their passions，” Dobek said. “Whatever they want to do, they should push for it and always try their best.”【解题导语】本文主要介绍了小学生Emilia Dobek设计太空站，并赢得挑战的相关内容。

Unit 20 New Frontiers李仕才【阅读理解】“It hurts me more than you”, and “This is for your own good” — these are the statements my mother used to make years ago when I had to learn Latin, clean my room, stay home and do homework.That was before we entered the permissive period in education in which we decided it was all right not to push our children to achieve their best in school. The schools and the educators made it easy for us. They thought that it was all right to be parents who take a letalone policy. We stopped making our children do homework. We gave them calculators, turned on the television, left the teaching to the teachers and went on vacation.Now teachers, faced with children who have been developing at their own pace for the past 15 yea rs, are realizing we’ve made a terrible mistake. One such teacher is Sharon Clomps who says of her students—“so passive” —and wonders what has happened. Nothing is demanded of them, she believes. Television, says Clomps, contributes to children’s passivity. “we’re talking about a generation of kids who has never been hurt or hungry. They have learned somebody will always do it for them, instead of saying ‘go and look it up’, you tell them the answer. It takes greater energy to say no to a kid.”Yes, it does. It takes energy and it takes work. it’s time for parents to end their vacation and e back to work. It’ s time to take the car away, to turn the TV off, to tell them it hurts you more than them but it’ s for their own good. It’s s time to start telling them “no” again.1.We learn from the passage that the author’s mother used to lay emphasis(重点) on ______.A.learning LatinB.being well behavedC.natural developmentcation at school2.By “permissive period in education” (L1, para.2) the author mean s a time ______.A.when children are allowed to do what they wish toB.when everything can be taught at schoolC.when every child can be educatedD.when children are permitted to receive education3.The main idea of the passage is that _______.A.parents should leave their children aloneB.kids should have more activities at schoolC.it's time to be more strict with our kidsD.parents should always set a good example to their kids参考解析：本文是一篇夹叙夹议文章,本文介绍了父母亲对孩子疏于管教,听之任之对孩子的学习带来的负面影响,建议父母严格要求自己的孩子。

Unit 20 单元主题语篇训练Ⅰ.阅读理解AA tablewaiting robot cat built by a Chinese technology firm can carry plates of food, navigate a restaurant, miaow (喵喵叫) at diners —and even react to having its ears stroked.Making its debut at the 2020 Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, the socalled BellaBot was built for Chinese restaurants lacking enough waiters.It is the brainchild (智慧结晶) of the Chinese robotics and artificial intelligence firm PuduTech.It features four shelves in the center of its towerlike body to carry plates.Having been loaded up with meals by its human colleagues, the catthemed robotic waiter miaows when it delivers food to diners to encourage them to take their plates.If customers thank BellaBot by stroking its ears, it will initially respond with a look of pleasure on its onboard screen, which displays animations of a cat's face.“The owner's hand is so warm，” BellaBot has been programmed to respond.However — much like a real cat — the robot's reaction soon changes if it is petted for too long.“It gets mad to remind you not to interrupt its job，” the designers introduced.The Bella Bot waiter robot is a more personalityrich update to PuduTech's previous model, which featured a more utilitarian (实用主义的) design and user interface.Both BellaBot and its predecessor were designed with a particular mind to Chinese restaurateurs which are often short of waiting staff.In a realworld foodservice setting, however, BellaBot may find it difficult to operate at peak times.Nevertheless, restaurants are expected to increase their trust on automation — whether in the form of robotic waiting staff or otherwise.Furthermore, the technology improvements of robotic waiters designs will be grown steadily, especially better at communicating with humans and tackling new activities.语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。

AScientific discoveries have changed man's life a great deal during the past century. First of all, they have greatly improved material wellbeing in several areas of life. In the field of medicine, cures for life threatening diseases have enabled people to live longer. In communication, the telephone and email have made it possible for us to communicate with anyone in the world without leaving our homes or offices. Advances in transportation allow businessmen to fly across the ocean in the morning and return home the same evening. Space technology has put men on the moon. More efficient ways of using available resources, such as coal and solar power, have been explored.Scientific discoveries have also changed man's moral atmosphere. Ethical (伦理的) issues are raised by these discoveries. Should we keep a terminally ill person alive through drugs and machines or should we allow him to die in dignity? With advances in transportation has come the problem of pollution for nearly every major city in the world. If cities become uninhabitable, then such technical advances may come with too great a price to pay. Many people also question the wisdom of sending men to the moon when there are urgent problems that have not been solved on earth. During future years, increasing attention must be given to the moral as well as the practical applications of science.1．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A．Scientific discoveries have only changed man's moral atmosphere.B．Scientific discoveries have only changed man's material well-being.C．Scientific discoveries have helped people find efficient ways of using available resources.D．Men are sent to the moon because there are urgent problems that have not been solved on earth.2．At the end of the passage the author says that increasing attention must be given to ________．A．the moral applications of scienceB．the practical applications of scienceC．urgent problems on the earthD．both A and B3．The best title for the passage is ________．A．Science discoveriesB．Science and daily lifeC．Advances in transportationD．City pollution【语篇解读】本文主要讲了科学发现对人们的日常生活的影响。

Unit 20 New Frontiers课时练(一) 阅读理解组块专练——练速度(限时：35分钟)Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2019·贵阳监测)In no particular order, here are some songs on the Music app of my phone：On a Sunday Afternoon by Lighter Shade of Brown—A student of mine introduced this rap song to me all the way back in the early 1990s, when I was teaching Spanish at a local university. The story in the song takes place not too far from where I live in Los Angeles. It's a good “driving” song, nothing complicated or “deep”．Say Something by A Great Big World— A more recent song about a couple losing contact with each other. The piano part is of very little playing but beautiful.American Pie by Don McLean— Another song from my youth in the 1980s, very popular with almost every American of my generation. It retells some of the key events of the middle 20th century, a song of happy memories of the past and wanting to return to those better times.The Weight by The Band— Another old song, originally made public in 1968, but one I didn't hear until I was in high school more than 10 years later. I don't understand the words to the song completely, but the feeling of the song is very comforting to me.Under the Bridge by Red Hot Chili Peppers — This Los Angeles group wrote a song that I used to listen to when I first moved to LA more than 25 years ago. I didn't know anyone here when I first arrived. When I got bored, I used to drive up and down the major streets that cross the city from east to west, listening to this song about “the city of angels” being as “lonely as I am”. (Don't worry! I have plenty of friends now.)语篇解读：本文是一篇应用文，主要介绍了在作者的手机音乐播放器中存的几首歌曲的相关信息。
1．What does the underlined word “deep” probably mean?A．With skill.B．With comfort.C．With a normal meaning.D．With a significant meaning.解析：选D 词义猜测题。
根据第二段最后一句中的“It's a good ‘driving’ song, nothing complicated”可知，此处表示这首歌是一首说唱乐，适合驾车时听，含义不复杂，故可推知这首歌没有重大的意义，所以选D。
2．When did the author probably hear The Weight by The Band?A．In 1968. B．In 1970.C．In the 1980s. D．In the 1990s.解析：选C 细节理解题。
根据第五段第一句“The Weight by The Band ... more than 10 years later”可知，这首歌于1968年发行，但是作者在十多年后才听到，所以作者有可能是在20世纪80年代听到这首歌的。
3．When the author first moved to LA, the song he used to listen to was ________.A．Say Something B．American PieC．The Weight D．Under the Bridge解析：选D 细节理解题。
根据最后一段第一句可知，作者最开始到洛杉矶时经常听的一首歌是Under the Bridge。
B(2019·昆明调研)When she was found off the coast of California four years ago, the fur seal, known as Ziggy Star, was skinny and fragile. She was unfit to return to the wild. And though a professional rescue team took her in to care for her, Ziggy continued to decline. “I wouldn't have given her next week，” says Uriarte, a surgeon who led a recent firstofitskind brain operation on the seal.The operation was the first of its kind to treat hydrocephalus in fur seals. The surgical team at Tufts was unable to find any documented evidence of a similar procedure, so they needed a lot of preparation to operate on Ziggy's brain. The biggest concern in operating on Ziggy was how to control the animal's anesthesia (麻醉). “When they're under anesthesia their body's reaction includes decreasing their heart rate, blood pressure, and breathing，” says Flower, who observes Ziggy and the other animals' care, describing the special challenges of operating on seals. On the day of the surgery, Flower says that she and her team “were all quite anxious not knowing what would happen”. Moving quickly was extremely important; the longer she was under anesthesia, the more likely that she could lose her breathing, says the surgeon. The seal has been kept on land to prevent water from entering the cut on her head.Now, Ziggy is eating a full diet and is beginning to gain weight again. “Recently I've allowed her to go swimming，” says Flower. However, the source of Ziggy'sneurological disorder (神经紊乱) is still a mystery. “My theory is that when she was found, she had a head injury，” Uriarte says. “Hit by a boat maybe ... That happens a lot with seals.” Flower is less willing to guess. “I don't think there's enough information to make that assumption. We just don't know what happened to her.”语篇解读：本文是动物保护类记叙文。
Ziggy Star是一只在加利福尼亚海岸被发现的非常瘦弱的海豹，因为Ziggy有脑积水，医生为她进行了手术，她现在已经能够正常进食，体重也在逐步恢复，但究竟是什么导致了她的神经紊乱，这依旧是一个谜。
4．When first found, Ziggy Star looked ________.A．thin and weak B．active and excitedC．bloody and fierce D．strong and energetic解析：选A 细节理解题。
