人教新课标版高中英语选修6Unit 5测试卷Unit 5 Module 6 The power of nature一、阅读理解What would make you happy? Really happy? A nice holiday, relaxing on a tropical beach? Maybe a blowout meal with friends at an expensive restaurant? Or possibly splashing out on a pair of the latest designer jeans? All these pleasures cost money, so does that mean we need lots of cash to feel good or does the old saying ‘Money can’t buy happiness’ still ring true?This well-worn proverb has been put to the test by scientists in Canada. They found that when used in the right way, money can bring us happiness. They discovered that when you use money to free up time, by paying someone to do your chores (杂务) for example, you are happier. In an experiment, individuals reported greater higher life satisfaction if they used $40 to save time rather than spend it on material goods such as a new pair of shoes. But surprisingly, the researchers found that fewer than a third of individuals spent money to buy themselves time each month.In our hectic lives time is one thing we seem to be short of. People are reporting a ‘time famine’, where they get stressed over the daily demands on their time. Psychologists say stress over lack of time causes lower well-being and contributes to anxiety and sleeplessness. But in many countries now, as incomes are rising, there is an option to buy more time.Professor Dunn, who worked with colleagues at Harvard Business School, says that “money can in fact buy time. And it buys time pretty effectively… and so my take-home me ssage is, ‘think about it, is there something you hate doing that fills you with great fear and could you pay somebody else to do that for you?’ If so, then science says that’s a pretty good use of money.”I would agree that buying more time makes me feel happier and more relaxed. But making time a priority (优先) over making money does come at a price; you have less cash to spend on the things you now have time to do. However, there's another old saying 'life is short and time is swift', so there’s no time t o waste and there's more to life than doing abundant and boring housework.1. How can people get happiness according to the experiment?A. By saving money without eating out.B. By buying time to be free from chores.C. By doing the housework in person.D. By spending cash on material goods.2. Why do people get stressed according to their own reports?A. They have less cash.B. Daily demands take them much time.C. Pleasures cost them much money.D. They suffer poor health.3. What does the underlined word “hectic” in the third paragraph probably mean?A. Busy.B. Boring.C. Stressful.D. Relaxing.4. What does the text mainly tell us?A.Money is more to life than a pleasure.B. Money can’t buy hap piness.C. Life is short and time is swift.D. Saving time is prior to saving money.二、完形填空It seemed to happen daily in our house that my sisters and I argued about almost everything.

To err is human. Failure is also a part of life, not the end of life. Be happy facing life’s challenges. When you make the effort to be happy and to improve your life, you are actually rewarded along the way.Life is like a game and maybe you can award(奖励) points for every effort that has been a success for you. Try it. Add ten points for every achievement. And when you have reached 50 points, ju st yell, “ Hey, I’ve won!〞 and give yourself a reward. If you happen to have missed your points for whatever reason, tell yourself, “Well, I tried!〞which is better than not trying at all. Don’t let it be said you didn’t try.What is it that you want to make yourself happy? Actually happiness means different things to different people. For example, an athlete will be happy winning his first race. For a new mother happiness would be seeing her baby’s first steps. Happiness for a poor person would mean having a meal just for today. So happiness for you is really something simple that you want for yourself.It really doesn’t have to be big. As a matter of fact you should always have realistic expectations. Make the best out of every given situation. If you expect a certain result from a situation and it does not happen, don’t get despondent. This just means trying harder next time. We all have in us the power to succeed. Don’t let “ give up 〞 be a part of your vocabulary.47.By saying “To err is human〞, the author means that________.A. human beings should try to avoid(防止) making mistakesB. no one is perfect(完美的) and everyone makes mistakesC. mistakes and failures make up our lifD. human beings make mistakes easily48. What’s the main idea of Paragraph 2?A. Try to reach 50 points.B. Never stop trying in your life.C. Award yourself for your successD. Don’t be afraid of missing your points.49. The author proves his idea in Paragraph 3 through_________.A. exampesB. numbersC. experimentsD. stories50. The underlined word “ despondent 〞 in the last paragraph means________.A. frightenedB. disappointedC. surprisedD. excitedB篇Weather changes when the temperature and the amount of water in the atmosphere change. We can see and feel water coming from the atmosphere when we have rain. But the water must somehow get back to the atmosphere. Meteorologists call this the water cycle.There are many stages in the water cycle. Rain falls when water vapour in clouds condenses(凝结). Drops of water form and fall to the ground. The water soaks intothe ground and feeds streams and rivers. A lot of rain falls into the sea. The heat of the sun evaporates some of the water in the ground and in the rivers, lakes, and the sea. It changes the liquid water into water vapour. The vapour rises onto the air. Water vapour is normally invisible. On a very damp or humid day, however, you can sometimes see water vapour rising from a puddle(水坑) or pond in a mist(薄雾) above the water. Water vapour also gets into the air from living things. Trees and other plants take in water through their roots and give off water vapour from their leaves. People and land animals drink water and breathe out water vapour. In all these ways the water returns to the air. There it gathers to form clouds and condenses to form rain. The rain falls to earth, and the cycle starts again. It continues even if snow or hail(冰雹) fall instead because both eventually melt to form water. The amount of water vapour in the air depends on the temperature. The air is more moist(潮湿) in the tropics(热带) than in the cold polar regions.51. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Water cycle.B. Water vapour.C. How rain forms.D. Water, vapour, rain.52. How many ways of the water returning to the air are discussed in the text?A. Two.B. Three.C. Four.D. Five.53. Whether water vapour can be seen or not depends on _______.A. how much water is evaporatedB. how good your eyes areC. in which way water is evaporatedD. climate or weather54. From the passage we get to know _______.A. there is more water vapour in the air in the tropics than in cold polar regionsB. there is more water vapour in the air in cold polar region than in the tropicsC. it gets more rain in the tropics than in cold polar regions because there is less vapourD. the amount of water vapour in the air depends on how often it rains26-45BACDB CDABA .

She is nervous and feels unprepared. After being at home with her kids for fourteen years, she' s decided it' s time to work again outside her home・ I know she，11 be a great colleague wherever she works but I also know she is nervous・ So here are some tips：First impressions are important as everybody says. If you like the person within the first nine minutes of your first meeting, it is likely that the sense of a “good fit” will endure for a long time.Don" t buy fancy new clothes・ Dress in a way that doesn' t call attention to itself. Black trousers or a black skirt and comfortable shoes are OK.Make sure they know they can count on you to accept responsibilities. They want to be sure you' 11 work on your own without being fearful or asking for permission for every little thing; they want to feel confident about you. If you are not confident, fake"段装）it.Keep your hands in your lap or on the arms of the chair. Don' t play with your hair or your fingernails or anything that shows nervousness.If you don' t know something, don' t pretend you do, but tell them you are eager to learn it. Saying “No J ve never done that" or “No, I have no experience^ won' t help your case・ Instead, say "That，s something V ve been fascinated by but never had a chance to deal with before^ or T m a quick learner, and if somebody will give me points V 11 learn them/'There are some details. Show up early. Bring a newspaper to read while you wait. Laugh when something is funny・ Send a thank-you note or e-mail immediately and make it enthusiastic. Don，t call the office to see how you did.5.From Paragraph 1, we learn that Shirley ______ .A • has never worked beforeB • hasn，t worked for a long timeC •doesn，t want towork D•won' t be a good colleague6.The underlined word "endure^ in Paragraph 2 is similar in meaning to “ _______stB. improveC.disappearD. agree7.What should you dowhen you don, t know something in an interview?A.Pretend to know a lot about it.B.Think about it for a while.C.Admit it and say you want to know more about it.D・ Say sony to the interviewers and ask for the right answer.8.After the interview, you should _______ .A. express thanks soon afterwardsB. call the office to see how you didC・ wait without doing anything D. send a telegram immediatelycLooking back on my childhood, 1 am convinced that naturalists are born and not made. Although we were brought up in the same way, my brothers and sisters soon abandoned their pressed flowers and insects・ Unlike them, I had no ear for music and languages. I was not an early reader and I could not do mental arithmetic.Before World War I we spent our summer holidays in Hungary・ I have only the dim（模糊的）memory of the house we lived in, of my room and my toys. Nor do I recall clearly the large family of grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins who gathered next door. But I do have a crystal clear memory of dogs, the farm animals, the local birds and above all, the insects.I am a naturalist, not a scientist. I have a strong love of the natural world, and my enthusiasm has led me into various investigations. I love discussing my favorite topics and enjoy burning the midnight oil reading about other people' s observations and discoveries.Then something happens that brings these observations together in my conscious mind. Suddenly you fancy you see the answer to the riddle. Because it all seems to fit togethe匚This has resulted in my publishing 300 papers and books, which some might honor with the title of scientific research•But curiosity, a keen eye, a good memory and enjoyment of the animal and plant world do not make a scientist: one of the outstanding and essential qualities required is self-discipline, a quality I lack・ A scientist can be made a naturalist. If you can combine the two, you get the best of both worlds.9・ According to the author, a born naturalist should first of all be ______ ・A. full of ambitionB. self-disciplinedC. full of enthusiasm D・ knowledgeable10.The author says that he is a naturalist rather than a scientist probably because he thinks he A. justreads about other people' s observations and discoveriesB • lacks some of the qualities required of scientistC. has a great deal of trouble doing mental arithmeticD・ comes up with solutions in most natural ways11 • The autho r can' t remember his relatives clearly because _________ .A.he didn? t live very long with themB.he was too young when he lived with themC.the family was extremely largeD・ he was fully occupied with observing nature12.Which of the following statements is true?A. The author believes that a born naturalist cannot be a scientist.B • The author read a lot of books about the natural world and oil industry.C. The author" s brothers and sisters were good at music and languages.D・ The author spent a lot of time working on riddles.DWhat will people die of 100 years from now? If you think that is a simple question, you have not been paying attention to the revolution that is taking place in bio-technology （生物技术）• With the help of new medicine, the human body will last a very long time. Death will come mainly from accidents, murder and war. Today?s leading killers, such as heart disease, cancer, and aging itself, will become distant memories.In discussion of technological changes, the Internet gets most of the attention these days・ But the change in medicine can be the real technological event of our times・ How long can humans live? Human brains were known to decide the final death. Cells （细胞）are the basic units of all living things, and until recently, scientists were sure that the life of cells could not go much beyond 120 years because the basic materials of cells, such as those of brain cells, would not last forever. But the upper limits will be broken by new medicine. Sometime between 2050 and 2IOO? medicine will have advanced to the point at which every 10 years or so, people will be able to take medicine to repair their organs. The medicine, made up of the basic building materials of life, will build new brain cells, heart cells, and so on 一in much the same way our bodies make new skin cells to take the place of old ones.It is exciting to imagine that the advance in tech no logy may be changing the most basic condition of human existenc® but many technical problems still must be cleared up on the way to this wonderful future ・13.According to the passage, human death is now mainly caused by _______ .A. diseases and agingB. accidents and warC. accidents and agingD. heart disease and war14.Humans may live longer in the future because _______ .A. heart disease will be far away from usB • h uman brains can decide the final deathC・ the basic materials of cells will last foreverD・ human organs can be repaired by new medicine15.We can learn from the passage that ________ ・A. human life will not last more than 120 years in the futureB- humans have to take medicine to build new skin cells nowC.much needs to be done before humans can have a longer lifeD.we have already solved the technical problems in building new cellsII.任务型阅读Your teen is falling asleep in classTeens have a busy morning schedule as they need to wake up and get moving very early in order to catch a bus and gel to school by the required time.

姓名，年级：时间：Unit 5 课下能力提升（二十）Ⅰ.阅读理解Krubera Cave in the western Caucasus Mountains is the deepest known cave in the world。

An international team prepared to descend into Krubera。

The team members hoped to be the first cavers to reach a depth of 2，000 meters， brought five tons of equipment and other necessities with them， and established camps at key locations along the route。

They worked for up to 20 hours each day。

In the third week， progress was blocked at 1,775 meters by a sump - a cave passage filled with water that gives cavers few options. There are basically three techniques available： dive through it， empty it, or go around it。

Gennadiy Samokhin dove to the bottom but was disappointed. “No chance to get through，”he said. Searching for a way around the sump, Garcia Dils risked entering a waterfall of near freezing water and discovered that his dry suit had holes in it。

人教新课标版高中英语选修6Unit 5考试测试卷

人教新课标版高中英语选修6Unit 5测试卷Uni t 5 Module 6 The power of nature一、阅读理解What would make you happy? Really happy? A nice holiday, relaxing on a tropical beach? Maybe a blowout meal with friends at an expensive restaurant? Or possibly splashing out on a pair of the latest designer jeans? All these pleasures cost money, so does that mean we need lots of cash to feel good or does the old saying ‘Money can’t buy happiness’ still ring true?This well-worn proverb has been put to the test by scientists in Canada. They found that when used in the right way, money can bring us happiness. They discovered that when you use money to free up time, by paying someone to do your chores (杂务) for example, you are happier. In an experiment, individuals reported greater higher life satisfaction if they used $40 to save time rather than spend it on material goods such as a new pair of shoes. But surprisingly, the researchers found that fewer than a third of individuals spent money to buy themselves time each month.In our hectic live s time is one thing we seem to be short of. People are reporting a ‘time famine’, where they get stressed over the daily demands on their time. Psychologists say stress over lack of time causes lower well-being and contributes to anxiety and sleeplessness. But in many countries now, as incomes are rising, there is an option to buy more time.Professor Dunn, who worked with colleagues at Harvard Business School, says that “money can in fact buy time. And it buys time pretty effectively… and so my take-home m essage is, ‘think about it, is there something you hate doing that fills you with great fear and could you pay somebody else to do that for you?’ If so, then science says that’s a pretty good use of money.”I would agree that buying more time makes me feel happier and more relaxed. But making time a priority (优先) over making money does come at a price; you have less cash to spend on the things you now have time to do. However, there's another old saying 'life is short and time is swift', so there’s no time to waste and there's more to life than doing abundant and boring housework.1.

By spending cash on material goods.2. Why do people get stressed according to their own reports?A. They have less cash.B. Daily demands take them much time.C. Pleasures cost them much money.D. They suffer poor health.3. What does the underlined word “hectic” in the third paragraph probably mean?A. Busy.B. Boring.C. Stressful.D. Relaxing.4. What does the text mainly tell us?A.Money is more to life than a pleasure.B. Money can’t buy ha ppiness.C. Life is short and time is swift.D. Saving time is prior to saving money.二、完形填空It seemed to happen daily in our house that my sisters and I argued about almost everything.

My complaints, even self-justified shouting, were always landing on2 ears. Very often a whole hou r’s scolding would end with their3into tears, I felt very frustrated. I realized I needed to4my method of “mothering”.One day when they were at school, I spent some time5their rooms. On their desks, in brief6, I left the cards: “Dear Bill(the ot her card was7to Sarah), your room was messy this morning and I’m sure you like it clean. Love, the Room Fairy. ”8arriving back, the children were9excited to receive the little note from the Room Fairy. The next day, their rooms were fairly tidy. Sure enough, there was another note from the Room Fairy10for them, thanking them for their nice “gift”of a clean room and11asking them to play a certain violin 12. Each day, thank-you notes would be written differently to keep the ideas13.Sometimes the Room Fairy would propose a small14: “If you can finish your homework and15your lessons before dinner, I’d liketo watch a particular television program with you tonight. ”Sometimes some colored markers or other little items would be left in16of well done jobs the day17.18I can’t remember how long“the Room Fairy”continued leaving her love notes. When they were age appropriate, we used various versions of Post-Its(便条). The bathroom mirror became the19 centre of our home. Appointments, notices about visiting relatives, lesson schedules, and changes in plans could be posted.We all benefited from and20the idea of sharing reminders and daily details of life through notes. I believe the true advantage of the Room Fairy notes survives in our frequent and enjoyable communication. 【语篇概述】本文讲述一位母亲教育孩子的故事。

Cars, trains and buildings cannot survive, 5 the people who stand in the 6 . When the ocean is deep , tsunamis can travel unnoticed 7 a speed of up to 800 kilometers per hour . They can cross the 8 ocean in a day or less.Tsunamis can be very 9 -----as much as 100 kilometers an hour. They are able to cross entire oceans without losing much energy . One of the most 10 facts about tsunamis is 11 an earthquake on one side of the Pacific Ocean can cause large waves and destruction on the other side.The wave may only be a few meters high in the ocean but when it is near the 12 and reaches shallow water , the wave 13 very quickly in height .

Even with modern technology it’s still impossible to know exactly when or where one is going to occur. Mountain climbers are wise to be careful , as avalanches kill many of them each year,.The physics of how and why an avalanche occurs is complex. There are times of higher probability. During the year , the transition from winter to spring will cause some snow and ice to melt, which may trigger avalanches . Also at daybreak there is a higher probability due to the temperature change.While climbers hike up slopes (斜坡)，some distance between the climbers should be kept . If an avalanche occurs , there will be fewer lives lost and higher probability that someone will be able to seek help. Since an accident is more likely to happen when a top layer of snow is loose, avoid areas where heavy snow or rain has recently occurred .Try to choose areas that you are familiar with and stay in areas with rocks , bushes and trees . Trees and bushes allow snow to pile up and keep the layers stable . If an avalanche occurs , trees will take the impact of the snow, so there is a better chance of being safe.Climbers must also pay attention to the degree of the slope. Avalanches won’t occur on level ground and there is little snowfall on very steep areas. The greatest danger is in areas where the slope is between 25 and 40 degrees.Remember that , if you get stuck in an avalanche , there is no car hire available to take you to the nearest airport.( )21. What do we know from the first paragraph?A. Many mountain climbers die of avalanches each year.B. Of all the natural disasters , avalanches cause the greatest damage.C. Most climbers who meet avalanches die for not paying enough attention to avalanches.D. With the development of science and technology , avalanches can now be predicted exactly.( )22. The underlined word “trigger”in the second paragraph probably means ““.A. make use ofB. result inC. put an end toD. slow down( )23. Why is there a higher probability that an avalanche occurs at daybreak?A. Because daybreak is the coldest time of the day in the mountains.B. Because it often snows heavily in the mountains at daybreak.C. Because temperature changes at daybreak.D. Because the top layer of snow is loose at daybreak.( )24. It wouldn’t be a good idea for a climber to while climbing a mountain.A. keep some distance from other climbersB. avoid areas where heavy snow or rain has recently occurredC. choose areas that he or she is familiar withD. climb up a slope which is between 25 and 40 degreesBIt’s nine o’clock on a Tuesday night . You are trying to finish your math homework .25 Almost done !You are looking forward to a nice snack and your favorite TV show . But you don’t have a clue about how to do the last problem . You may check your notes from class. Or you may try reading your textbook. 26Does this sound familiar? Most people who have taken any kind of math class have had this experience. What do you do when you get stuck? Perhaps you call a friend. Or you ask a family member for help. 27Years ago there were very few ways to get help if you were stuck on a math problem . Math is different from other school subjects . You often cannot find what to do in a book. A dictionary or even an encyclopedia probably won’t help you. 28In many areas there are homework telephone lines . These hot lines have volunteers .They can help you do homework in all subjects . A math volunteer can explain the steps in a math problem for you .29 There are several homework-help programs and web-pages . In some , you leave your question on a message board . Or you write it in an e-mail note. In other math-help programs there are live volunteer teachers . You can wait for them to help you.A. But it seems the problem is written in a foreign language.B. It’s like learning to play a musical instrument.C. But what if it’s late at night?D. You have only two problems left to go.E. You read the next problem and almost cry.F. Today you can also get help on the Internet.G. You need someone to show you the stops.四、改错Today is Sunday . The sky is full of sunshine, so does my life. At about 9:00 am. I go to the bookstore with my friends . There was a lot of new books , I didn’t know which one to buy , because these books were both useful to me . At last , I chose two. At 10:00 , we went to the cinema, the film calling Titanic was very popular. It took us about 3 hours to see . Having seen the film , and everyone was deeply moved . Some friends even burst out tears. From the story , I understand that love is noble and valuable . That’s a really wonderful film. It is very worth seeing again. What a happy day! I hope tomorrow I will be even happy!五、书面表达假定你是李华，你看到班上有部分同学不自己独立完成作业而是抄袭。

The moneylender, who was old and ugly, fancied the businessman’s beautiful daugh ter. So he proposed a bargain.The moneylender told them that he would put a black pebble and a white pebble into an empty bag. The girl would then have to pick one pebble from the bag. If she picked the black pebble, she would become the moneylender’s wif e and he would forgo her father’s debt. If she picked the white pebble, she need not marry him and her father’s debt would still be forgiven. But if she refused to pick a pebble, her father would be thrown into jail.They were standing on a pebble-strewn path. As they talked, the moneylender bent overto pick up two pebbles. The sharp-eyed girl noticed that he had picked up two black pebbles and put them into the bag. He then asked the girl to pick a pebble from the bag. No doubt she was caught in a dilemma.What would you have done if you were the girl? Careful analysis would produce three possibilities:1.The girl should refuse to take a pebble.2.The girl should know that there were two black pebbles in the bag and expose the money-lender as a cheat.3.The girl should pick a black pebble and sacrifice herself in order to save her father from his debt and imprisonment.The above story is used with the hope that it will make us appreciate the difference between lateral (横向的)and logical thinking.Read on…The girl put her hand into the moneybag and drew out a pebble. Without looking at it, she fumbled and let it fall onto the pebble-strewn path where it immediately became lost among all the other pebbles. “Oh, how clumsy of me!” she said. “But never mind, if you look into the bag for the one that is left, you will be able to tell which pebble I picked.” Since the remaining pebble is black, it must be assumed that she had picked the white one. And since the moneylender dared not admit his dishonesty, the girl changed what seemed an impossible situation into an extremely advantageous one.1. The underlined word “forgo” in paragraph 2 may mean ________.A. pay offB. run outC. take overD. give up2.Which of the following indicates lateral thinking?A.
