Unit 4 EarthquakesⅠ.阅读理解A(2017·山东潍坊高三统一考试)“There's a mother in PICU(儿童重症监护病房)who wants to talk about a kit she received，” the nurse told me. “Something about it made her cry.”I've been a childlife specialist at the Cleveland Clinic Children's Hospita l since 2000. I help families understand diagnoses and treatment plans and manage the ups and downs that come with caring for a sick child. Tough talks with parents are part of the job，which still makes me feel nervous.The kits the nurse was talking about were something I had recently introducedto the hospital: Comfort Kits from Guideposts. They were supposed to make a child's experience here easier，not upsetting.When I came across the kits at a conference，I fell in love with them. A treasure box of items designed not only to entertain kids，but to comfort and inspire them. There's a coloring book，a stress ball，a CD of relaxing music，a hairy star named Sparkle，a journal and much more. I really believed these kits would help kids. I wished I hadn't been mistaken.At the patient's room in PICU I saw a little girl，sleeping soundly，surroundedby tubes and machines. My eyes met her mother's. The kit was open on her lap and tears were running down her cheeks.“I'm Shannon. I manage the Child Life Departm ent，”I said. “I'm sorry if thekit upset you. It's a new item ...”The mother shook her head. “This has been one of the worst days of my life.I felt so scared and alone. Then I was handed this box. I know it's for my daughter，but it's just the comfort I n eeded. I wanted to say thankyou.”With that I knew Comfort Kits belonged here. We've been using them for almost three years now. Each child who's admitted to the hospital receives one. Every day I see kids coloring，journaling，playing with Sparkle.But as this mom showed me Comfort Kits aren't just for kids. The hope they bring, which_can_be_in_short_supply_in_hospitals_sometimes,_is felt by the whole family.【解题导语】作为一名儿童医护专家，作者引进了一套工具，这套工具对患者及其家属产生了很大的影响。

This was the case in many eastern European countries for several years after 1986.Scientists are putting the first spike down to the atomic bomb tests of the 1960s and 1970s where radioactive atoms were blasted into the atmosphere. Air currents caught these atoms and then distributed them around the world.They think the second spike is due to the 1986 Chernobyl disaster in which the reactor exploded in the Ukraine(乌克兰)．The effects of Chernobyl were felt locally and no effect was seen in the U．S., probably because it was too far from the disaster to have an effect.“The closer the country was to Chernobyl, the stronger the effect，” said study coauthor Hagen Scherb, a biostatistician(生物统计学家) at the German Research Center for Environmental Health in Munich.More males were born relative to females in Belarus—the Ukraine's neighbour—than in France.The study is based largely on Cold Warera statistics, but the findings are highly relevant for how gender could be affected after future nuclear disasters.And in the wake of Japan's Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant accident experts are predicting another baby boy boom could come, especially on the U．S. West Coast.Previous radiation experiments on animals may give a clue for the increase in male births. Tests showed that radiation caused damage to the X chromosome(染色体) in sperm, Dr Scherb said.A human sperm cell contains either an X or Y chromosome, while an egg only has an X chromosome. An XY combination will become a boy, while an XX combination will be a girl.31．How many nuclear radiation accidents are mentioned in the passage?A．1. B．2. C．3. D．4.32．Which of the following is true according to the passage?A．The ontheground incidents like Chernobyl, effected birth gender across the globe.B．There was an increase in the number of baby boys in many eastern European countries for several years after 1986.C．The Japan's nuclear accident will not effect the birth gender of the U．S. because of the long distance.D．Where radioactive material has spread, women can't give birth to children.33．How does radiation effect birth gender?A．It damages the Y chromosome in sperm.B．It stops X chromosomes and Y chromosomes combining.C．It kills baby girls before they are born.D．It damages the X chromosome in sperm.34．What does the passage mainly tell us?A．Nuclear age has led to millions of fewer baby girls being born.B．Nuclear radiation has bad effects upon people's health.C．Worries about radiation risks.D．Nuclear age helps reduce the world population.Ⅳ.完成句子阅读下列各小题，根据每句后的汉语提示，用句末括号内的英语单词完成句子。

Unit 4 EarthquakesⅠ.阅读理解A导学号 42492081 One winter, my cousin and I were playing toy blocks in the yard.My mom was out for shopping to get groceries and my dad was asleep upstairs in his room.Suddenly, it started to snow.First it was just a little.But then it started to pour heavily.Then, we put the finishing touches to our blocks and headed back inside.Right when I opened the sliding glass door, my cousin fell down on the slippery wooden stairs.I let go of the door, my worst mistake, you see.The door locks automatically but I had put a rock, right next to the door so it wouldn't close.But while I was running to my cousin's aid I'd accidentally kicked the rock.Now，my cousin and I were locked outside.And unfortunately it started to get really windy.It was really freezing with the snow.First we started to call my dad, but he was sleeping soundly.I mean, slept through a tornado soundly.It was of no use.Then I tried to climb over the fence but it didn't work because the fence was iced by snow and wind, and the fence is six feet high.So, I climbed up to my tree house and brainstormed some ideas on ways to get in.At one point, I was seriously considering jumping out of the tree house and using the trampoline(蹦床) to jump over the fence.So, we got to work.First, I took out the trampoline.Then I started to jump.First try—I almost cracked my head.Second try—this time I convinced my cousin to do it but at the last second, he chickened_out.Third try—I jumped and missed but at the last second, my hand caught the fence, and with a lot of pushing I finally climbed over the fence and luckily, I fell on a big snowdrift.Then I got inside and unlocked the door for my cousin to get in.Finally, my mom came back.Then we shared this story with my mom and dad.文章大意：本文是一篇记叙文，讲述的是作者与表弟在后院玩耍时突遇风雪天气，因意外他们被锁在门外的经历。

Unit 4 EarthquakesⅠ.阅读理解APeople love cellphones，which is why nine in ten Americans own one.But does heavy use of cellphones pose a risk of cancer? This question has caused controversy for many years.A new study in rats now augments those concerns.Its data linked longterm，intense exposure to radiation from cellphones with an increased risk of cancer in the heart or brain.The results have yet to be confirmed，the authors note.Indeed，although the rat study found a link between cellphone radiation and cancer，it offers no clues to why such a link might exist，notes Jonathan Samet.He teaches preventative medicine and directs the Institute for Global Health at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles.Still，he calls the new study's findings “significant”．They could lead to studies researching how cellphone radiation might cause cancer，he says.Phone signals are relayed between cell towers and cellphones via radio waves.This radio frequency—or RF—radiation is a type known as nonionizing(非电离的)．Unlike Xrays，nonionizing radiation does not deposit enough energy into cells to release electrons from atoms or molecules，producing ions. So it tends to be far less harmful than ionizing radiation，such as Xrays.But that does not mean radio waves might not cause harm.In very large doses(量) this radiation will heat the body and cause tissuedamage.But it's not yet known what much lower RF levels might do，such as those from cellphone use.Five years ago，the World Health Organization's International Agency for Research on Cancer，or IARC，concluded that cellpho ne use “is possibly carcinogenic (致癌的)”．Its conclusion was based on what little research data was available at that time.But notice that IARC was not certain.It said only that phone use might “possibly”cause cancer.So scientists at the National Toxicology Program，or NTP，investigated further.[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文。

Coming across me wandering through the traffic, motorists probably would have to step rapidly on their brakes.Apart from that, there were all sorts of disasters that used to occur on the way to and from work.One evening, I got off the bus about halfway home where I had to change buses, and as usual I ran into something. “I'm awfully sorry，” I said and stepped forward only to run into it again.When it happened a third time, I realized I had been apologizing to a lamppost.This was just one of the stupid things that constantly happened to me.So I carried on and found the bus stop, which was a request stop, where the bus wouldn't stop unless passengers wanted to get on or off.No one else was there and I had to try to guess if the bus had arrived.Generally in this situation, because I hated showing I was blind by asking for help, I tried to guess at the sound.Sometimes I would stop a big lorry and stand there feeling stupid as it drew away.In the end, I usually managed to swallow my pride and ask someone at the stop for help.But on this particular evening no one joined me at the stop. It seemed that everyone had suddenly decided not to travel by bus.Of course I heard plenty of buses pass, or I thought I did.But because I had given up stopping them for fear of making a fool of myself, I let them all go by.I stood there alone for half an hour without stopping one.Then I gave up.I decided to walk on to the next stop.11．The girl refused to ask for help because she thought ________．A．she might be recognizedB．asking for help looked sillyC．she was normal and independentD．being found blind was embarrassing12．After the girl got off the bus that evening, she________．A．began to runB．hit a person as usualC．hit a lamppost by accidentD．was caught by something13．At the request stop that evening, the girl________．A．stopped a big lorryB．stopped the wrong busC．made no attempt to stop the busD．was not noticed by other people14．What was the problem with guessing at the sound to stop a bus?A．Other vehicles also stopped there.B．It was unreliable for making judgments.C．More lorries than buses responded to the girl.D．It took too much time for the girl to catch the bus.BPhil Moriarty, one of the most successful American swimming and diving coaches and a legend at Yale, died on Saturday in Connecticut, US.He was 98.Moriarty, who coached the United States diving team at the Rome Olympics in 1960, helped train some of his time's greatest swimmers, among them the Olympic gold medalists Don Schollander, Steve Clark, Mike Austin, John Nelson and Jeff Farrell.He also coached Olympic diving champions like Bob Clotworthy and David Browning.In 1960, Moriarty's divers won two gold and four silver medals in Rome.Moriarty had been the diving coach at Yale since 1939 when, in 1959, he succeeded Bob Kiphuth as the swimming team coach.“When I came to Yale，” Clark said, “I was a restless little boy depending on blazing speed and luck.I matured with Phil so that he didn't have to hold my hand.He let me grow and gave me confidence.”Philip Edward Moriarty was born on April 12, 1914, in New Haven.He graduated from high school in 1932. Though he did not have a college degree, he got a job teaching swimming to Yale students of his age.He also designed a revolutionary starting block that allowed backstrokers(仰泳运动员)to avoid pushing off a slippery wall.It was successful in the United States, but after three years the international federation refused to approve it．Moriarty promoted backstroke as healthy recreation for the young.When municipal authorities proposed closing public swimming pools to save money in 2008, he opposed the idea in a letter to The Stuart News, a Florida newspaper, saying athletics can help prevent youths from falling into gangs (帮派)and drifting into crime.“The only gangs on swimming teams are relay teams，”he wrote.“The only gun they see is the starter's pistol (发令枪), pointed upward, not at someone.”15．Paragraph 2 is mainly developed ________．A．by time B．by spaceC．by examples D．by comparison16．The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 4 refers to ________．A．the use of a starting block for swimmersB．the admittance of backstroke style into the OlympicsC．the acceptance of Moriarty as a swimming judgeD．the practice of pushing off a slippery wall17．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A．There are criminal relay gangs on swimming teams.B．Moriarty trained a group of swimming champions like Browning.C．Moriarty had performed as a diving coach since 1939 in Kiphuth's place.D．In Moriarty's opinion, athletics can help the youths grow up healthily in society. 18．The passage is probably written to ________．A．take a different look at Moriarty's legendary lifeB．advocate promoting swimming among the youthsC．inform readers of Moriarty's death and achievementsD．describe a few swimming and diving medalists at the OlympicsⅢ.完成句子19．A meteor exploded over Russia's Ural Mountains. So far, around 1，200 peopleare reported __________________________．(injure)一颗陨石在俄罗斯乌拉尔山脉地区上空爆炸。

前一空应该用不及物动词rise。
第二空应该用及物动词raise，而且是现在分词形式，表示伴随状况。
答案 B2．The American Civil War________four years________the North won.A．was lasted；until B．had lasted；beforeC．were lasted；when D．lasted；after解析句意：美国内战持续了四年，最后北方获得了胜利。
last没有被动式；由win 用过去时可推知前面的last应该用过去完成时。
答案 B3．The people there were greatly ______ to see everything changed overnight.A．pleased B．shockedC．interested D．moved解析句意：看到在一夜之间所有的一切都改变了，那里的人们感到非常震惊。
根据句意，B项为正确答案，shock意思是“(使)震惊；震动”。
答案 B4．In the big fire all their houses were________，so they had to build new ones.A．hurt B．injuredC．destroyed D．harmed解析句意：他们所有的房子都在大火中被烧毁了，所以不得不建造新的了。
根据后半句句意可知空处要表达“烧毁”的含义，故选C。
答案 C5．Threefourths of the surface of the earth________covered by water.A．is B．are C．were D．has been解析“分数＋of＋名词(代词)”作主语时，谓语动词的单复数取决于其后名词(代词)的形式和意义。
答案 A6．A bomb________two buildings and caused many deaths.A．destroyed B．damagedC．harmed D．injured解析destroy指彻底的、不能或很难修复的“破坏”，程度较深；damage是程度较小的“破坏”。
harm强调“有危害”；injure指“损伤，损害”，从后面的many deaths 可知，程度较深，故选A项。
答案 A7．I got caught in the rain and my suit______.A．has ruined B．had ruinedC．has been ruined D．had been ruined解析句意：我淋雨了，我的衣服被毁坏了。
此题是由两个并列句组成，第一个句子用一般过去时说明过去发生的事情，第二个句子强调过去发生的事情对现在造成的影响，用现在完成时；又因此处my suit与ruin之间存在着被动关系，故用现在完成时的被动式。
答案 C8．I burst out________when hearing the amusing story.A．laugh B．to laughC．laughter D．laughing解析burst out doing“突然……起来”，为固定搭配形式。
答案 D9．________in his study，he didn't know that all the others had left.A．Burying B．BuriedC．Buried himself D．He buried解析句意：他专心于学习，因此不知道其他人都走了。

答案 B10．______ children whose parents had died in the earthquake ______ sent to live with families in other cities.A．A great number of；wasB．A great number of；wereC．The great number of；wasD．The great number of；were解析the number of后面接复数名词表示“……的数量”，它的谓语动词一般是be动词，表语则常是表示数量的词。
在本句中这种结构明显不符合句意，因此排除C、D两项。
另外，a number of接复数名词作主语，其谓语动词应用复数形式，故此题应选B项。
句意：许许多多在地震中失去父母的孩子被其他城市的家庭收养了。
答案B11．The meeting________at six o'clock in the afternoon.A．at an end B．came to an endC．brought to an end D．put to an end解析A项为介词短语，不能充当谓语；C、D两项中brought与put为及物动词，后需要加宾语，因此只有B项正确。
come to an end“结束；终结”。
答案 B12．She ______ into tears the moment she knew she had failed that exam.A．burst B．brokeC．shocked D．cried解析burst into后接名词，表示“突然(进入某种状态或发生某种情况)”；break into 闯入，破门而入，后面接地点名词。
而shock与cry不和into搭配。
句意：一得知没有通过那次考试，她就哭了起来。
答案 A13．Broadly speaking，I would agree with Shirley，though not________.A．entirely B．widelyC．extremely D．eventually解析考查副词词义的辨析。
entirely完全地；widely广泛地；extremely极端地；eventually最后。
句意：我大体上同意Shirley的话，尽管不完全同意。
答案 A14．—Jack fell off the bike yesterday，but he is all right now.—What a lucky dog！He________himself badly.A．should injure B．might injureC．should have injured D．could have injured解析考查情态动词的用法。

答案 BⅡ.阅读理解“Tiger Mother”parenting raises media storm.A new book written by a selfdescribed Chinese descent(血统)on her superstrict parenting—Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother has raised media storm and fierce debates in the U．S.Amy Chua is a Yale Law School professor and the mother of two teenage girls.She is the daughter of immigrants of Chinese descent.In the Chinese culture，the tiger symbolizes strength and power.In her book Ms.Chua writes about how she demanded excellence from her daughters.For example，her daughters，Sophia and Louisa，were never allowed to attend a sleepover，be in a school play，watch TV or play computer games.They couldn't choose their own afterclass activities or get any grade less than an A．They had to play piano or violin—and no other musical instruments.She writes that if a Chinese child gets a B—which she says“would never happen”—there would be“a screaming，hairtearing explosion”．She describes making her 7yearold daughter play a piano piece perfectly—yelling and not letting her leave the bench even to use the bathroom—until it was.Many people have criticized Chua.Some say her parenting methods were abusive.She even admits that her husband，who is not Chinese，objects to her parenting style.But she says that was the way her parents raised her and her three sisters.Stacy DeBroff，who has written four books about parenting，says Amy Chua's parenting style is not limited to Chinese families.She says it represents a traditional way of parenting among immigrants seeking a better future for their children.But she also sees a risk.When children have no time to be social or to follow their own interests，they might not develop other skills that they need to succeed in life.Stacy DeBroff advised parents not to just repeat the way they were raised.“In that sence，a young adult's giftedness can be born，or made，”Lo continued.【语篇解读】耶鲁大学华裔教授Amy Chua的新书《虎妈战歌》成为美国人热议的话题，她提出的“中国式”严苛教子方法引发了巨大争议。
