It’s the simplest and easiest form of paper art. And paper art can be traced back to Japan, where it originated over a thousand years ago. However, there’s a special minority who takes paper art to the next level, magically turning the plain white or colored paper into some of the most amazing artworks. Check out the following artists and their works!The Danish artist Peter Callesen is famous for his talent in combining the minimalism(极简主义)of a white sheet of paper with the complexity of carefully cut and folded paper and uses the two to build out some pleasing works.The British artist Su Blackwell often goes to secondhand bookstores—to look for materials with which she can carve out delicate sculptures. The models look as if they “grow”naturally from the pages of the books. The artist finds inspiration from the book title or a paragraph or picture inside and then spends months carefully slicing each one into an eye-catching paper model. Her old book sculptures sell for up to ￡5, 000 each.By carefully folding simple pieces of paper, German artist Simon Schubert creates amazing masterpieces. He turns paper into architectural masterpieces by folding a simple piece of paper to shape the creases (褶痕), then unfolding it to show the fascinating artwork.Another master of paper-folding is Jen Stark. Her artwork is often in the form of colorful caves and topographic (地形的) maps. Using her vivid imagination and a special knife, she is a modern day magician who turns humble materials like construction paper and glue into fantastic, complicated sculptures that puzzle the eyes. Her work draws inspiration from nature.【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文。

It takes strength to ask for help. It’s a hard thing to do. The truth is，there are more good people than bad. People truly want to help others. No one should ever have to be in that darkplace.I have a friend called Diane. Diane is one of the most positive people I have ever known. She is smart and funny，and by looking at her you would certainly think she had a perfect life. No one knew the terrible things she was dealing with. She never asked anyone for help when she was in great trouble. She thought that she would just be bothering(打搅) people if she told them the truth. She thought loneliness was her answer. She masked her loneliness，but one day she hit her breaking point.Diane tried to take her life one morning. She was lucky，though. Someone found her before it was too late. People finally knew her problems and with their help she got rid of them. She once told me that her biggest regret was not reaching out to someone sooner. Diane has greatly changed. She’s become positive and is always ready to help others.Diane and I have grown quite close. She has helped me battle my own problems. She is an example of what help looks like.To anyone out there who feels they are alone，I hope you know you are not. Even if you feel the world is closing in on you，there are people who care—people who will surprise you in the best ways. The best thing about our technological world is how easily you can reach people. Don’t be afraid to ask for help. You are not alone.【解题导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。

课时练1阅读理解提速练Ⅰ阅读理解A(2018·唐山一模)A new research brings some good news for loversof spicy(辛辣的) foods, after finding that eating hot red chili peppersmight help to extend lifespan(寿命)．Consuming hot red chili peppers might reduce death risk, say Chopan and Littenberg from the research team. In hot peppers，such as Mexico peppers, the strong flavor comes from a compound(化合物)，which does not exist in sweet peppers or onions. Studies have suggested that this compound can offer wealth of health benefits.A study of more than 16，000 people in the United States showed that individuals who consumed red chili peppers had a lower risk of death from all causes over an average of 18 years than those who did not eat the spicy food. Compared with participants who did not consume hot red chili peppers, those who did were found to be at a 13 percent reduced risk of all－cause death.For example, a recent study reported by Medical News Today, found that the compound might have the potential to stop breast cancer, while an earlier study linked the compound to a reduced risk of digest system cancers. Still, the available data suggested that hot red chili pepper consumption was most strongly associated with a reduced risk of death from heart disease.While the researchers are unable to identify the specific compound by which red chili peppers might extend lifespan, the team says that it is likely due to the compound that is effectively against obesity(肥胖症)．Overall, the team says that these latest findings support those of the 2015 study, linking spicy foods intake to reduced risk of death by showing “a significant decrease in death associated with hot red chili pepper consumption”. However, Chopan and Littenberg note that the earlier study was only conducted in Chinese adults, so the new research makes these findings more credible．【解题导语】一项新的研究发现，食用红辣椒之类的辛辣食物可能会降低死亡风险，延长人类的寿命。

genius、A major Vermeer exhibition opens this month at the Louvre in Paris,whose permanent collection includes his great painting of a womanabsorbed in close, visually demanding work, The Lacemaker (about 1669－1670)、Like other paintings by Vermeer, this image represents modernculture、So attracted are today’s art lovers by Vermeer that it was thought shocking when a recent survey found that 82% of Americans can’t name who painted Girl with a Pearl Earring、Well, maybe they don’t go to the movies much、It is not true to say he was forgotten—that would suggest he was famous in his lifetime、He was not、Vermeer was one more painter among the many who worked for money in the Dutch Republic in the 17th century、He was not a star like Rembrandt、He obviously took himself and his art seriously、His self-referential painting The Art of Painting proves that、Even though he worked all his life in Delft, he painted only 35 known works and left his family poor when he died in 1675 at the age of 43、It is fitting that Paris is celebrating Vermeer, because it was the French avantgarde(先锋派) in the 19th century who saved him from being completely forgotten、Compare his painting Woman in Blue Reading a Letter or The Little Street with, say, Edouard Manet’s A Bar at the Folies-Bergère(1882)or Camille Pissarro’s The Boulevard Montmartre at Night(1897) and it is easy to see why the art of Vermeer found its natural audience in Parisian Bohemia、All these artists are likely to have known about and admired Vermeer due to the efforts of thecritic Thoré-Bürger, a veteran of the 1848 Revolution、Vermeer’s

Ⅰ阅读理解AKieron Graham has known from a young age that he was adopted. While he loves his adoptive family, he has always wondered about his birth mother and brother. When his adoptive mom gave him a DNA test tool, they both hoped it might help him find his birth family. But neither of them guessed it would work so quickly. And when it did, Graham learned he and his longlost brother should have crossed paths every day.It took just one week from the time Graham, a college student at Georgia’s Kennesaw State University, received his DNA results on for him to connect with his brother. Graham’s DNA results showed that his closest match was a man named Vincent Ghant, and it turned out that Ghant lived just a few minutes away.Graham reached out and learned that the two were in fact longlost brothers. Their mother, Shawn Ghant, made the diffcult decision to place Kieron in adoptive care when he was just a baby.And she has worried and wondered about her youngest son ever since. Graham has since been reunited with his mother and both of his brothers on his mother’s side.“It’s all surreal(离奇的). Too many words are needed to describe exactly what I’m feeling about the entire situation, but it’s a good situation，”Graham tells MNN.As fate would have it, Kieron and Vincent are both students at Kennesaw State University. They even have the same major—Political Science. So it’s a safe bet the two have crossed paths many times over the past three years. And now, thanks to some DNA sleuthing(侦查), the two will cross paths many more times in the years to come.“We’re getting together on Christmas with everyone, birth mother included，”Graham says. “That’s sure to be a very indelible Christmas indeed, which will always be remembered by us.”【解题导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了Graham在一家网站的帮助下，找到了自己的哥哥及亲生母亲的故事。

Compared with participants who did not consume hot red chili peppers, those who did were found to be at a 13 percent reduced risk of all－cause death.For example, a recent study reported by Medical News Today, found that the compound might have the potential to stop breast cancer, while an earlier study linked the compound to a reduced risk of digest system cancers. Still, the available data suggested that hot red chili pepper consumption was most strongly associated with a reduced risk of death from heart disease.While the researchers are unable to identify the specific compound by which red chili peppers might extend lifespan, the team says that it is likely due to the compound that is effectively against obesity(肥胖症)．Overall, the team says that these latest findings support those of the 2015 study, linking spicy foods intake to reduced risk of death by showing “a significant decrease in death associated with hot red chili pepper consumption”. However, Chopan and Littenberg note that the earlier study was only conducted in Chinese adults, so the new research makes these findings more credible．【解题导语】一项新的研究发现，食用红辣椒之类的辛辣食物可能会降低死亡风险，延长人类的寿命。

ButTheodor Seuss Geisel —better known as the children’sbooks author Dr. Seuss —who came into the world on2 March, 1904, was an unusual man.Like generations of children I was raised on his wonderful stories. But when Inow read them to my children it’s not just the childhood memories I enjoy. His writing is brilliant and imaginative and flows with a self-confidence as sure as the word s of a Shakespeare poem. Readers ride his c haracteristic rhythm with an effortless joy that cannot be matched by any other modern writer:You have brains in your headYou have feet in your shoesYou can steer yourself any direction you chooseAnd will you succeed ?Yes indeed, yes indeed!Ninety-eight and three-quarters percent guaranteed.Seuss’s brilliant cartoons and clever words make his books a delight for adults but they appeal most to children of course. His stories teach kids moral lessons but in indirect and entertaining ways.The first Seuss book I was given was The Lorax, written just as the 60s were becoming the 70s. Seuss was ahead of his time, and in this book the dawn of concern for environmental problems are shown as the Lorax “who speaks for the trees” battles against an evil businessman who wants to destroy the forest and make goods “which everyone needs”.It’s not only a warning of the heavy price of env ironmental destruction, written well before most people had thought to worry, but it’s also a smart analysis of consumer societies: “Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It’s not. ” This is of course a moral message, but not of the kinddesigned to persuade the youngsters into behavior that adults want.I could go on, but hey, it’s a birthday, and I’m sure you folks have some good toasts to raise for the party. . .1. What’s the purpose of t his passage?A. To introduce Dr. Seuss’s life.B. To analyse Dr. Seuss’s books.C. To describe Dr. Seuss’s writing style.D. To celebrate Dr. Seuss’s achievements.2. Why does the author include Dr. Seuss’s poem?A. To encourage readers to use their brains and choose their own way.B. To give readers a sample of Seuss’s story The Lorax.C. To provide readers with an example of Seuss’s writing style.D. To explain how relevant Seuss’s stories remain today.3. Why do adults also enjoy Seuss’s book s?A. His words and pictures are imaginative enough to be enjoyed by all.B. His books give children obvious moral messages to learn from.C. He writes about adult topics in a way that is understandable to children.D. He was the first person to write about the environment.4. When was the book The Lorax written?A. Early 1960s.B. Early 1970s.C. Late 1960s.D. Late 1970s.5. Which of the following is true about Seuss?A. Many of the issues he discussed attracted greater concern in later years.B. He is widely considered as the twentieth-century Shakespeare.C. His books are more popular now than when they were first published.D. Most readers thought his ideas were difficult to understand.Ⅳ. 阅读表达阅读下面短文并回答问题（请注意问题后的词数要求）。

Ⅰ阅读理解A(2018·甘肃重点中学协作体联考)In ancient Egypt, the pharaoh(法老) treated the message runner like a prince when he arrived at the palace, if he brought good news. However, if the exhausted runner had the misfortune to bring the pharaoh unhappy news, his head was cut off.Shades of that spirit spread over today’s conversations. Once a friend and I packed up some peanut butter and sandwiches for an outing. As we walked lightheartedly out of the door, picnic basket in hand, a smiling neighbor looked up at the sky and said, “Oh boy, a bad day for a picnic. The weatherman says it’s going to rain.”I wanted to strike him on the face with the peanut butter and sandwiches. Not for his stupid weather report, but for his smile.Several months ago I was racing to catch a bus. As I breathlessly put my handful of cash across the Greyhound counter, the sales agent said with a broad smile, “Oh, that bus left five minutes ago.”Dreams of headcutting!It’s not the news that makes someone angry. It’s the unsymp athetic attitude with which it’s delivered(传递). Everyone must give bad news from time to time, and big winners do it with the proper attitude. A doctor advising his patient that she needs an operation does it in a caring way. A boss informing an employee he fails to get the job takes on a sympathetic tone. Big winners know, when delivering any bad news, they should share the feeling of the receiver.Unfortunately, many people are not aware of this. When you’re tired from a long flight, has a hotel clerk ch eerfully said that your room isn’t ready yet? When you had your heart set on the toasted beef, has your waiter merrily told you that he just served the last piece? It makes you as a traveler or diner want to land your fist right on their unsympathetic faces.Had my neighbor told me of the upcoming rainstorm with sympathy, I would have appreciated his warning. Had the Greyhound salesclerk sympathetically informed me that my bus had already left, I probably would have said, “Oh，that’s all ri ght. I’ll catch th e next one.” Big winners, when they bear bad news, deliver bombs with the emotion the bombarded(被轰炸的) person is sure to have.【解题导语】本文主要讲述当我们要告诉别人不好的消息的时候，要注意说话的方式和语气，还要带有同情心。

Ⅰ阅读理解ATom Dreesen’s life has equally contributed to comedy and philanthropy(慈善). He is excellent at both, and has achieved great success in both areas.Dreesen has made over 500 appearances on national television as a stand-up comedian, including more than 60 appearances on The Tonight Sho w. He is a favorite guest of David Letterman, and frequently hosts the show in Letterman’s absence. For 13 years he toured across the country, and has appeared countless times in Las Vegas, Reno and Atlantic City. Tom has acted in many television shows—from Columbo to Murder, She Wrote—and appeared in movies including Man on the Moon and Spaceballs. He has starred in his own TV comedy special, Dreesen Street, and hosted a late night talk show in Chicago, Night Time Starring Tom Dreesen.Dreesen’s comic style is warm. Daily Variety called him “a professional comedian and one of the most respected family comedians of our time”. Larry Wilde, author of The Great Comedians said about Tom’s performances, “Excellent material, perfect timing, Tom Dreesen is the greatest comedian.”Frank Sinatra, who called himself a “pub singer”，described Dreesen as a “pub comedian”. “We’re a couple of neighborhood kind of guys，”said Sinatra.Dreesen has also made an unbelievable mark with his philanthropic activities. For 30 years he has lent his talent(才能) to over 100 charities, and founded a “Day for Darlene”to benefit Multiple Sclerosis(多发性硬化症) Research. He ran 26 miles on three occasions for the event, which is named for his late sister who was suffering from multiple sclerosis.And he’s still going strong. A proud veteran(老兵) of the United States Navy, he continues to perform for US troops all over the world. Tom Dreesen’s hometown of Harvey, Illinois named a street after him. He received the Ellis Island Medal of Honor in 2005.【解题导语】本文是一篇记叙文。

考查非限制性定语从句的引导词。
which代替前面的整个句子。
in fact 属插入语，考生在做题时可将其忽略。
2．(2011·福建顺昌高三模拟)________is known to us all that the old scientist，for ________life was hard in the past，still works hard in his eighties.A．It；whomB．As；whomC．As；whoseD．What；whom解析：选A。
句意：我们都知道，那位老科学家八十多岁的时候还在努力工作，对他来说过去的生活是艰苦的。
It是形式主语，that从句是真正的主语；第二空的whom引导定语从句修饰the old scientist。
3．________felt funny watching myself on TV.A．OneB．ThisC．ItD．That解析：选C。
本题考查代词的用法。
本题少的是一个主语，而后面的watching myself on TV 则是真正的主语，是watching myself on TV这件事让人感到有趣，所以空格处应是形式主语it。
A、B、D三个选项都无此用法。
4．The road conditions there turned out to be very good，________was more than we could expect. A．itB．whatC．whichD．that解析：选C。
句意：那里的路况证明是非常好的，这超出了我们的想象。
which引导非限制性定语从句，which指代前面整个句子的内容。
A、B、D三项均不能引导非限制性定语从句。
5．Tom worked hard，but________didn’t please the boss.A．oneB．itC．whatD．which解析：选B。
but为并列连词，故后句为一独立的句子。
it代替前面的事情，在后句中作主语。
Ⅲ.语法专练本单元语法——虚拟语气(Ⅰ)1．I failed in the final exam again；how I wish I________ so much time playing computer games. A．haven’t spentB．didn’t spendC．hadn’t spentD．don’t spend解析：选C。
考查虚拟语气。
wish后的宾语从句如果表示对过去情况的虚拟，谓语动词用过去完成时。
2．(2011·高考陕西卷)I__________through that bitter period without your generous help. A．couldn’t have goneB．didn’t goC．wouldn’t goD．hadn’t gone解析：选A。
考查虚拟语气的用法。
句意为“没有你的慷慨帮助，我是不可能度过那段痛苦的时期。
”that bitter period表示过去的时间，对过去的虚拟语气用主语＋should/would/could/might ＋have done表达，故选A。
3．(2012·南昌调研)—I hear your journey was not very pleasant.—But for the sudden rain we ________a wonderful time.A．will haveB．should have hadC．should haveD．had解析：选B。
考查虚拟语气。
答句句意：若不是因为突如其来的雨，我们本可以玩得很开心的。
根据上一句可知是对过去情况的叙述，而but for经常用于虚拟语气中，所以是对过去事实的假设。
4．(2011·潍坊教学检测)________this afternoon，you would have to come again next week. A．The boss didn’t returnB．The boss were not to returnC．Were the boss not to returnD．Didn’t the boss return解析：选C。
考查虚拟语气及倒装。
由主句中的“would have to...next week”判断出，这是对将来发生事情的虚拟，所以从句的谓语用“were to＋动词原形”结构。
把were放在句首，省略了if。
5．—Y ou could have done a better job，Lucy.—That’s true.If only I ________mo re careful!A．wereB．had beenC．would beD．has been解析：选B。
if only表示“要是……就好了”，其引导的句子常用虚拟语气，由于句中是表示与过去事实相反的情况，所以B项正确。
答句第二句是说“要是我更认真一些就好了！”。
Ⅰ.单项填空1．This white table is much smaller than the red one，but it is three times __________ heavy. A．asB．soC．tooD．very解析：选A。
此句中的as heavy后面省略了as the red one。
2．The idea of working abroad really __________ me，and I’m trying to apply for a job abroad. A．adapts toB．relates toC．responds toD．appeals to解析：选D。
句意：去国外工作的想法吸引着我，我正试图在国外找到一份工作。
appeal to 意为“有吸引力”，符合句意。
adapt to适应(新环境等)；relate to sb./sth.理解或同情某人(某事物)；respond to回应，反应。
3．John applied for the post of Eliot’s secretary.Does he __________ the necessary patience and ability to do the job well?A．performB．possessC．observeD．support解析：选B。
句意：John申请做Eliot的秘书。
他有做好这项工作必备的耐性和能力吗？possess 具有，拥有，符合句意。
perform表演，演奏；observe观察，观测；support支持，支撑。
4．Currently eleven of her works are in print，and a good number of others __________ available in public libraries.A．areB．wereC．isD．was解析：选A。
由Currently可知，此句应该用一般现在时，a number of...作主语时，谓语动词要用复数形式。
5．(2012·山西临汾模拟)—How long has Mark been occupied with his new book?—__________ August last year.A．AfterB．InC．FromD．Since解析：选D。
此处考查省略句，答句补充完整应为Mark has been occupied with his new book since August last year.。
6．The earthquake __________ several months before didn’t cause much loss.A．to be predictedB．predictingC．predictedD．predicts解析：选C。
句意：这次在几个月以前就发布了预报的地震没有造成太大的损失。
