airplanes,in airports and hotels.These laptops connect peopleto their workplace.In the United States today,laptops also connect students to their classrooms.Westlake College in Virginia will start a laptop computer program that allows students to do schoolwork anywhere they want.Within five years,each of the 1,500 students at the college will receive a laptop.The laptops are part of a $10 million computer program at Westlake,a 110yearold college.The students with laptops will also have access to the Internet.In addition,they will be able to use emails to “speak” with their teachers,their classmates and their families.However,the most important part of the laptop program is that students will be able to use computers without going to computer labs.They can work with it at home,in a fastfood restaurant or under the trees—anywhere at all!Because of the many changes in computer technology,laptop use in higher education,such as colleges and universities,is workable.As laptops become more powerful,they become more similar than desktop computer.In addition,the portable computers can connect students to not only the Internet but also libraries and other resources.State highereducation officials are studying how laptops can help students.State officials are also testing laptop programs at other universities.At Westlake College,more than 60 percent of the staff use computers.The laptops will allow all teachers to use computers in their lessons.As one Westlake teacher said,“Here we are in the middle of Virginia and we’re giving students a window of the world.They can see everything and do everything.”1.The main purpose of the laptop program is to give each student a laptop to________.A.use for their schoolworkB.access the InternetC.work at homeD.connect them

Unit 4 Warming Up & Reading阅读理解AElizabeth Blackwell was born on February 3, 1821 in Bristol, England. Her father was a rich sugar businessman at the time. Because her parents thought boys and girls should be equal, Elizabeth received the same education as her brothers.In 1832, her father’s business was destroyed by fire, so her family moved to New York City. But her father’s business there failed. Then in 1837, the family moved to Cincinnati, Ohio. Not long after, her father died. After her father’s de ath, Elizabeth, at the age of 16, had to go to work.When she was 24, she visited her dying friend Mary. Her friend said, “You’re young and strong; you should become a doctor. ”That was nearly impossible for a woman in the middle of the nineteenth century. But she knew this was what she was going to do.After several rejections from medical schools, she finally was accepted by Geneva Medical College. By studying hard, she graduated successfully in 1849.After graduating from medical school, she went to Paris to learn more about medicine. She wanted to be a surgeon, but a serious eye problem forced her to give up the idea.When she returned to America in 1851, she found it difficult to start her own practice because she was a woman. In 1857, Elizabeth and her sister, also a doctor, along with another woman doctor, managed to open a new hospital, the first for women and children. Besides, she also set up the first medical school for women in 1868, where she taught the women students about disease prevention. It was the first time that the idea of preventing disease was t aught in a medical school.Elizabeth Blackwell started the British National Health Society in 1871, which helped people learn how to stay healthy. In 1889, Elizabeth Blackwell became the first woman doctor in the United States. Most importantly she fought for the admission of women to medical colleges.Elizabeth Blackwell died on May 3, 1910, when she was 89. She opened a world of chances for women. She always fought for what was right in all her life. In 1949 the Blackwell medal was established. It’s given to women who have excellent achievements in the field of medicine. She’ll always be remembered as a great woman.1. According to the passage, Elizabeth Blackwell .A. received bad education in her childhoodB. spent a happy and lucky childhoodC. moved to America with her family at elevenD. decided to be a doctor due to her father’s death2. Elizabeth Blackwell could not become a surgeon because .A. she was a womanB. she had a serious eye problemC. she went to Paris for further educationD. she didn’t go to medical school3. Elizabeth Blackwell opened her first hospital for woman and children .A. eighteen years after her father diedB. seven years after returning to America from ParisC. ten years before setting up her first medical schoolD. eight years after graduating from medical school4. Elizab eth Blackwell spent most of her life in .A. AmericaB. ParisC. EnglandD. Geneva5. Which of the following is NOT true about Elizabeth Blackwell?A. She built the first hospital for women and children with others.B. She was the first woman doctor in the United States of America.C. She set up the first medical school for women in the world.D. She built a medal for women with excellent achievements in medicine.BThe Erie Canal was the first important national waterway builtin the US. It crossed New York from Buffalo on Lake Erie Troy toAlbany on the Hudson River. It joined the Great Lakes with theAtlantic Ocean. The canal served as a route over which industrialgoods could flow into the west, and materials could pour into theeast. The Erie Canal helped New York develop into the nation’s largest city.The building of the canal was paid for entirely by the state of New York. It cost $7, 143,789, but it soon gained its price many times over. Between 1825, when the canal was opened, and 1882, when toll charges(过运河费)were stopped, the state collected $121, 461, 891.For a hundred years before the Erie was built, people had been talking about a canal which could join the Great Lakes and the Atlantic Ocean. The man who planned the Erie Canal and carried the plan through was De Witt Clinton. Those who were against the canal laughingly called it “Clinton’s Ditch(沟)”. Clinton talked and wrote about the canal and drew up plans for it. He and Governor Morris went to Washington in 1812 to ask for help for the canal, but they were unsuccessful.Clinton became governor of New York in 1817, and shortly afterwards, on July 4, 1817, broke ground for the canal in Rome, N. Y. . The first part of the canal was completed in 1820. As the canal grew, towns along its course developed fast. The length of the canal is 363 miles.6. We can see that the Erie Canal .A. joined the Gre at Lakes togetherB. crossed New York from north to southC. played an important part in developing New York CityD. was the first waterway built in the US7. It can be inferred that into the Atlantic Ocean.A. the Great Lakes flowB. the Hudson River flowsC. Lake Erie flowsD. the Erie Canal flows8. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Clinton broke ground for the canal at both ends.B. Clinton started building the canal before he became governor of New York.C. All parts of the canal were c ompleted at the same time.D. Construction of the canal took eight years.CToday, one can trace Venice’s rich past from its buildings.Most cities can claim at least a handful of outstanding churches,palaces or houses of historical interest, and nearly everything is。

人教版高中英语选修六课后阅读训练13.【Unit 4 Period 1】及答案解析
人教版高中英语选修六课后阅读训练13.【Unit 4 Period 1】及答案解析Ⅰ. 阅读理解AGlobal warming is the process of earth’s atmosphere heating up. Over the last 100 years, the average temperature ofearth’s atmosphere has gone up 1 degree Fahrenheit. The weather has not changed exactly the same way in every area of the planet. But scientists think that the rise in average temperature is already affecting the earth’s climate.Many scientists now believe that global warming is caused by cutting down trees, producing more trash, and polluting the environment and so on. Many scientists believe that the biggest cause of global warming is new human technologies that release greenhouse gases into the atmosphere.The greenhouse effect is not new. Certain gases in the atmosphere, like carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide and methane, make it hard for he at energy to go into space. In the past, the climate didn’t change much because nature produced just the right amount of greenhouse gases to deal with it. Today, most scientists are pretty sure that the rising temperature can’t be blamed on nature. Ever si nce the industrial revolution in the 1700s, humans have relied on machines for daily life. And many of those machines give off a lot of greenhouse gases. An increase in the release of greenhouse gases from human activities is throwing nature off balance.The climate is a very complicated thing, but many scientists agree that the rising atmospheric temperature has already damaged the environment. Sheets of ice, called glaciers, are melting in Antarctica and other parts of the globe. As glaciers break off and melt into the oceans, they are adding warm water to the oceans and causing the sea level to rise.Over the past 100 years, the sea level has risen 6~8 inches around the world. That means land along the coasts is beginning to disappear under water. Bigger and warmer oceans are also adding to other weather problems caused by pollution in the atmosphere. Some places have received more rain, others have had bigger storms and a few areas in the world have experienced unusual droughts.【语篇概述】本文主要讲述了全球变暖的原因及影响。
2019-2020学年高中英语 Unit 4 Global warming Period One
Unit 4 Global warmingThe Arctic will soon be free from ice,experts say.The change is sure to take place,but global warming and climate change are changing the earth’s landscape(地形) rapidly,causing anxiety worldwide.Experts say that the Arctic sea ice is melting quite faster than expected and it can affect not just the region,but Earth in general.A scientist even says that next year,or maybe the year after that,the Arctic will be free of ice.Peter Wadhams,director of the Scott Polar Institute in Cambridge,said,“Most people expect this year will see a record low in the Arctic’s summer sea ice cover.Next year or the year after that,I think it will be free of ice in summer and by that I mean the central Arctic will be icefree.” “You will be able to cross over the North Pole by ship,” he added.Wadhams’ study says that melting sea ice will have a great influence on the planet since the sea ice is more capable of reflecting(反射) sunlight compared to water that can only reflect 10% of the sunlight.Once the sea ice melts,the water can only reflect a small amount of sunlight.This means that the Earth will receive and absorb more sunlight,making the planet even hotter.The year 2016 had already broken records of the hottest temperature ever recorded and the trend doesn’t seem to show any decrease in global warming.“It doesn’t look like the ice is healing and growing back,” Tom Wagner,NASA’s manager said in a report.Like Wadhams,scientists and researchers all over the world are lecturing around to educate people to help lighten global warming that has already changed the planet’s landscape.判断正(T)误(F)1.The speed of the Arctic sea ice being melting is beyond expectation.(T) 2.The Arctic won’t be free from ice soon because of global warming and climate change.(F)Period One Warming Up & Reading—Prereading匹配左边的单词与右边的汉语意思[第一组]1.consume A.n.燃料2.random B.vi.同意;捐赠;订阅3.phenomenon C.vt.消费;消耗;耗尽4.subscribe D.adj.胡乱的;任意的5.fuel E.n.现象答案 1.C 2.D 3.E 4.B 5.A[第二组]6.quantity A.vt.反对;反抗7.oppose B.n.量;数量8.state C.n.大灾难;浩劫9.trend D.n.趋势;趋向;走向10.catastrophe E.vt.陈述;说明答案 6.B 7.A 8.E 9.D 10.C[第三组]11.range A.n.洪水;水灾12.consequence B.n.旱灾;干旱13.mild C.n.结果;后果;影响14.flood D.adj.温和的;温柔的;淡的15.drought E.n.种类;范围答案11.E 12.C 13.D 14.A 15.B[第四组]16.famine A.vi.趋向;易于;vt.照顾;护理17.data B.n.资料;数据18.byproduct C.n.化石19.tend D.n.饥荒20.fossil E.n.副产品答案16.D 17.B 18.E 19.A 20.CStep 1FastreadingSkim the text and do the following exercises.1.This article may be from .A.an environmental magazineB.a diaryC.a novelD.a story答案 A2.Find out the main idea of each paragraph.Para.1 A.the cause of the earth’s beco ming warmerPara.2 B.the consequence of burning fossil fuelsPara.3 C.the increase of carbon dioxidePara.4 D.global warming will go onPara.5 E.puzzles about global warmingPara.6 F.different attitudes to global warmingPara.7 G.an introduction to the passage答案Para.1:G Para.2:A Para.3:B Para.4:C Para.5:D Para.6:F Para.7:E Step 2CarefulreadingRead the text carefully and choose the best answer.1. made accurate measurements of the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere from 1957 to 1997.A.Dr Janice FosterB.Charles KeelingC.George HambleyD.Sophie Armstrong答案 B2.Some scientists like George Hambley think that the temperature increase will .A.cause a rise of several metres in the sea levelB.cause the spread of diseases and the disappearance of speciesC.encourage a greater range of animalsD.cause severe storms,floods,droughts and famines答案 C3.The main difference between Dr Janice Foster’s theory and George Hambley’s lies in .A.how to prevent global warmingB.what causes global warmingC.whether global warming would cause serious problems or notD.whether the levels of carbon dioxide have increased or not over the years答案 C4.Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?A.Greenhouse gases refer to some byproducts of the burning of fossil fuels.

Communicating effectively means more than knowing what to say andwhen to say munication involves the small signals your bodylanguage sends to those listening.Over half of the information you provideas you connect with others comes from your body language.Some bodylanguage provides positive information and some negativeinformation.Positive body language says,“I am interested in what you are saying.”Negative body language says,“I don’t believe anything you are saying,and I am bored besides!”Here are some common body actions and the impressions they create:Fiddling(摆弄)—Playing with your watch or a pen looks like you are bored or impatient.Clock watching—It looks like you’re anxious to move onto something else.Tapping—Tapping your foot or fingers suggests you are impatient or nervous.Drumming your fingers,scratching,twitching,and moving eyes around the room all discredit what you are saying and your image as a person good to know.Staring—An unblinking stare conveys boredom.Blink normally and nod your head to show agreement and that you are still alive and not bored to death.Body hunched (弯曲)—Closing up your body profile—becoming smaller—looks like you lack confidence.Stand tall and believe what you are saying.Arms crossed—If you keep your arms folded during communication,you appear to be defending yourself against the others.Keep your posture open,except your legs.Crossing at the knee or ankle is O.K.(That depends a lot on the culture.For example,in Thailand don’t cross your legs and point your toes at anyone!)Hiding your hands—Evasive(逃避的) people with secrets don’t show their hands.Touching your face—When you have your hand in front of your mouth,you appear timid(胆怯).Rubbing your nose,eyes,ears,head,or neck—It shows doubt in what you are saying or hearing. No eye contact—If you won’t look at the other speaker in the eye,you seem to have low interest or a lack of confidence.How you say things in communication is just as important as what you say.Watch your body language and control the unconscious message you might be sending.根据上文完成下列各题1.What does the body language “fiddling” mean?Fiddling means listeners are bored or impatient.2.What does “rubbing your nose,eyes,ears,head,or neck” show in communication?It shows doubt in what one is saying or hearing.3.What kind of body language do you often use in your daily life?The answers may vary.Period One Warming Up & ReadingⅠ.单词1.v.迎接;问候greet代表;象征represent接近;靠近approach保卫;保护defend误解;误会misunderstand猛冲;突进dash2.n.社团;联想association陈述;说明statement航班flight成人adult宿舍dormitory面颊cheek食堂canteen3.adj.好奇的curious主要的major口语的spoken可能的likelyⅡ.短语1.保卫……以免受defend against 2.相反地on the contrary3.总的来说;通常in general 4.很可能……be likely to5.在防守;在保卫in defence1.Yesterday,another student and I,representing our university’s student association,went to the Capital International Airport to meet this year’s international students.昨天,我和另一个学生代表我们学校的学生会,到首都国际机场迎接今年的国际学生。

B.Benefit.C.Share. D.Endanger.4.Which of the following best shows how the plan would work?5.What serious problems might the plan cause according to the passage?A.Earth might be moved too far away and man might be frozen to death.B.The comet might hit Earth and man might lose the moon.C.The comet might hit Jupiter or Saturn and never return to Earth.D.Earth’s working life might be greatly shortened.dissolve v.溶解生义:v.解散;解除;终止Their marriage was dissolved in 2009.他们于2009年解除了婚姻关系。
