课时规范练2(模块一Unit2)Ⅰ.阅读理解(2018·湖南益阳高三第三次质检)GrowingpainsandgainsIt’s not easy growing up.Actually it’s far from easy.Growing up can be a real “pain” for some of us.We are always doing things that someone else makes us do and aren’t allowed to do all the things we like.Sometimes we feel trapped,sometimes we are fearful,sometimes we just don’t understand why we can’t stay young forever.But we should take a look back on all the hardships in life with a positive attitude and realize that all of our growing pains actually turn into growing gains!As a young girl my parents pressured my sisters and me to do so many things that I neverliked.They made me learn to play the violin and then the piano.At that time I hated music,just because it was what they wanted me to do.But looking back now,I am so glad that my parents encouraged me to take music lessons.Music has enriched my life in so many countless ways.I realized that my parents and teachers were always pushing me along,not because they wanted me to suffer but because they wanted me to succeed in life.They’ve always wanted me to have a better life than they did themselves.Every moment of our lives we are either living or dying,so live life to its fullest!We are all going to experience growing pains,but they are just small pains in the scheme of life.They might seem so huge at the time but we must be strong.Think about how we would feel if we had no fear and live life like that.The future is ours!A little hard work and sweat never hurt anyone!If we realize that these pains are just small bumps on our road to success we

模块测试六第一部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
AIf Confucius were still alive today and could celebrate his September 28 birthday with a bigcake,there would be a lot of candles.He’d need a fan or a strong wind to help him put them out.While many people in China will remember Confucius on his special day,few people in the United States will give him a passing thought.It’s nothing personal.Most Americans don’t even remember the birthdays of their own national heroes.But this doesn’t mean that Americans don’t care about Confucius.In many ways he has become a bridge that foreigners must cross if they want to reach a deeper understanding of China.In the past two decades,the Chinese studies programs have gained huge popularity in Western universities.More recently,the Chinese government has set up Confucius Institutes in more than 80 countries.These schools teach both Chinese language and culture.The main courses of Chinese culture usually include Chinese art,history and philosophy.Some social scientists suggest that Westerners should take advantage of the ancient Chinese wisdom to make up for the drawbacks(缺点)of Western philosophy.Students in the United States,at the same time,are racing to learn Chinese.So they will be ready for life in a world where China is an equal power with the United States.Businessmen who hope to make money in China are reading books about Confucius to understand their Chinese customers.So the old thinker’s ideas are still alive and well.Today China attracts the West more than ever,and it will need more teachers to introduce Confucius and Chinese culture to the West.As for the old thinker,he will not soon be forgotten by people in the West,even if his birthday is.1.The opening paragraph is mainly intended to .A.provide some key facts about ConfuciusB.attract the readers’ interest in the subjectC.show great respect for the ancient thinkerD.prove the popularity of modern birthday celebrations2.We can learn from Paragraph 4 that American students .A.have a great interest in studying ChineseB.take an active part in Chinese competitionsC.try to get high scores in Chinese examsD.fight for a chance to learn Chinese3.What is the best title for the passage?A.Forgotten Wisdom in AmericaB.Huge Fans of the Chinese LanguageC.Old Thinker with a Big FutureD.Chinese Culture for WesternersBA record 6.15 million trips were made by Chinese mainland tourists to overseas destinations during the seven-day Spring Festival holiday,which ended on Thursday,according to the China National Tourism Administration.That is an increase of 7 percent compared with 2016’s Spring Festival.About 374,000 trips were organized by travel agencies,a 2.5 percent increase.The administration also reported growth from individual and high-end(高端的)travelers and said that in addition to first-tier and coastal cities,inland cities—such as those in the Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region—became important source markets.With many Chinese now traveling abroad for Spring Festival,their choice of destinations has expanded along with their growing interest in foreign cultures and services.“Chinese tourists are increasingly willing to experience local culture and services,including staying in private homes,appreciating plants and watching monkeys in hot springs,”Li Xuejing,the agency’s marketing manager,said.。

课时规范练3(模块一Unit3)A(2017·辽宁沈阳省示范协作校一模)Did you know that sixty percent of your body weight is water?However,a loss of only two percent of this water through dehydration(脱水) during exercise can significantly affect your performance.The more you sweat,the more your exercise performance declines,unless you drink enough to replace your loss of fluids.When you lose too much water,you can overheat quite easily,especially in a warm environment.But this is not the only problem you may be faced with.Dehydration leads to your heart pumping much faster,which means exercise becomes more difficult and requires more effort.Despite theseproblems,however,many of us simply do not take enough fluids in when we head for the gym or set out on a run.So why is this?How do we manage to lose so much water without simply drinking more to replace it?Well,it is easier than you think.When we are at rest,we quickly become aware that we are thirsty and will put that right by having a drink.When we exercise,on the other hand,our thirst mechanism(结构) does not work as effectively,so we don’t notice early enough that we are actually thirsty.In fact,we only start to feel thirsty when we have already lost around two percent of our body weight.Another problem is that,the more dehydrated we become during exercise,the more difficult it is to prevent further dehydration—because our stomachs become intolerant to fluids and we do not absorb water properly,just when we need it most.The key thing about fluids and exercise is to manage your intake properly—regular small amounts are better,and some should be drunk before the period of exercise begins.You also need to match your intake to the sort of exercise you are doing.For instance,for one hour of exercise,such as taking part in a 10 km run,you need to drink about two extra liters of water.For longer periods of exercise,sports drinks are recommended.1.We know about dehydration during exercise?A.It can be easily avoided.B.It will lead to poor performance.C.It can cause many health problems.D.It will be controlled whenever we drink again.2.Why do people suffer from dehydration easily during exercise?A.Their thirst mechanism stops working.B.Their focus is on the exercise.C.Their thirst response is slow.D.Their stomachs are full.3.What are you advised to do when exercising?A.Have regular breaks.B.Drink water accordingly.C.Drink sports water in advance.D.Have at least two liters of water.4.What would be the best title for the text?A.Keep FitB.Say No to SportsC.Time to Get DrinkingD.Ways to Avoid DehydrationB(2017·广东揭阳一模)In agrarian(农业的),pre-industrial Europe,“you’d want to wake up early,start working with the sunrise,have a break to have the largest meal,and then you’d go back to work,” says Ken Albala,a professor of history at the University of the Pacific.“Later,at 5 or 6,you’d have a smaller supper.”。

课时规范练13(模块五Unit1)A(2017·全国Ⅱ卷)I first met Paul Newman in 1968,when George Roy Hill,the director of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid,introduced us in New York City.When the studio didn’t want me for the film — it wanted somebody as well known as Paul — he stood up for me.I don’t know how many people would have done that;they would have listened to their agents or the studio powers.The friendship that grew out of the experience of making that film and The Sting four years later had its root in the fact that although there was an age difference,we both came from a tradition of theater and live TV.We were respectful of craft(技艺)and focused on digging into the characters we were going to play.Both of us had the qualities and virtues that are typical of American actors:humorous,aggressive,and making fun of each other — but always with an underlying affection.Those were also at the core (核心)of our relationship off the screen.We shared the belief that if you’re fortunate enough to have success,you should put something back — he with his Newman’s Own food and his Hole in the Wall camps for kids who are seriously ill,and me with Sundance and the institute and the festival.Paul and I didn’t see each other all that regularly,but sharing that brought us together.We supported each other financially and by showing up at events.I last saw him a few months ago.He’d been in and out of the hospital.He and I both knew what the deal was,and we didn’t talk about it.Ours was a relationship that didn’t need a lot of words.1.Why was the studio unwilling to give the role to the author at first?A.Paul Newman wanted it.B.The studio powers didn’t like his agent.C.He wasn’t famous enough.D.The director recommended someone else.2.Why did Paul and the author have a lasting friendship?A.They were of the same age.B.They worked in the same theater.C.They were both good actors.D.They had similar characteristics.3.What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 3 refer to?A.Their belief.B.Their care for children.C.Their success.D.Their support for each other.4.What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?A.To show his love of films.B.To remember a friend.C.To introduce a new movie.D.To share his acting experience.B(2017·浙江杭州考前热身)There is plenty of complains about how social media-texting in particular—may be harming children’s social development.But a new study suggests that constant instant messaging(IM’ing)and texting among teens may also provide benefits,particularly for those who are introverted(内向的).British researchers studied instant messages exchanged by 231 teens.The researchers analyzed 150 conversations in the study.In 100 of these chats,the study participant began IM’ing while in a negative emotional state such as sadness or anger.The rest were conversations begun when the participant was feeling good or neutral(中立的).After the chat,participants reported about a 20% reduction in their distress—not enough to completely eliminate it,but enough to leave them feeling better than they had before reaching out.。

课时规范练11(模块四Unit2)A(2017·天津卷改编)Fifteen years ago,I took a summer vacation in Lecce in southern Italy.After climbing up a hill for a panoramic(全景的) view of the blue sea,white buildings and green olive trees,I paused to catch my breath and then positioned myself to take the best photo of this panorama.Unfortunately,just as I took out my camera,a woman approached from behind,and planted herself right in front of my view.Like me,this woman was here to stop,sigh and appreciate the view.Patient as I was,after about 15 minutes,my camera scanning the sun and reviewing the shot I would eventually take,I grew frustrated.Was it too much to ask her to move so I could take just one picture of the landscape?Sure,I could have asked her,but something prevented me from doing so.She seemed so content in her observation.I didn’t want to mess with that.Another 15 minutes passed and I grew bored.The woman was still there.I decided to take the photo anyway.And now when I look at it,I think her presence in the photo is what makes the image interesting.The landscape,beautiful on its own,somehow comes to life and breathes because this woman is engaging with it.This photo,with the unique beauty that unfolded before me and that woman who “ruined” it,now hangs on a wall in my bedroom.What would she think if she knew that her figure is captured(捕捉) and frozen on some stranger’s bedroom wall?A bedroom,after all,is a very private space,in which some woman I don’t even know has been immortalized(使……永存).In some ways,she lives in my house.Perhaps we all live in each others’ spaces.Perhaps this is what photos are for:to remind us that we all appreciate beauty,that we all share a common desire for pleasure,for connection,for something that is greater than us.That photo is a reminder,a captured moment,an unspoken conversation between two women,separated only by a thin square of glass.1.What happened when the author was about to take a photo?A.Her camera stopped working.B.A woman blocked her view.C.Someone asked her to leave.D.A friend approached from behind.2.According to the author,the woman was probably .A.enjoying herselfB.losing her patienceC.waiting for the sunsetD.thinking about her past3.In the author’s opinion,what makes the photo so alive?A.The rich color of the landscape.B.The perfect positioning of the camera.C.The woman’s existence in the photo.D.The soft sunlight that summer day.4.The photo on the bedroom wall enables the author to better understand .A.the need to be close to natureB.the importance of private spaceC.the joy of the vacation in ItalyD.the shared passion for beautyB(2017·辽宁大连三模)If you think that running marathons will help you live a long and healthy life,new research may come as a shock.According to a recent scientific study,people who do a very strenuous workout are as likely to die as people who do no exercise at all.。

课时规范练5(模块二Unit2)A(2017·内蒙古二模)The journey two divers made some time ago to the deepest point on the earth makes us realize how much of the world still remains to be studied.The two men went down seven miles to the bottom of the Pacific Ocean inside a small steel ball to find out if there were any ocean currents(水流) or signs of life.It was necessary to set out early,so that the ball would come to the surface in daylight,and be easily found by the mother ship which would be waiting for it.The divers began preparations early in the morning and soon afterwards,when all was ready,the steel ball disappeared under the surface of the water.The divers felt as if they were going down steps as they passed through warm and cold layers(层) of water.In time the temperature dropped to the freezing point.They kept in touch with the mother ship by telephone telling how they felt.Then,at a depth of 3,000 feet,the telephone stopped working and they were quite cut off from the outside world.All went well until some four hours later at 30,000 feet,the men were frightened by a loud,cracking noise.Even the smallest hole in the ball would have meant instantdeath.Luckily,though,it was only one of the outer windows that had broken.Soon afterwards,the ball touched the soft ocean floor raising a big cloud of “dust” made up of small dead seacreatures.Here,powerful lights lit up the dark water and the men were surprised to see fish swimming just above them quite untroubled by the great water pressure.But they did not dare to leave the lights on for long,as the heat from them made the water boil.Quite unexpectedly,the telephone began working again and the faint but clear voices of the divers were heard on the mother ship seven miles away.After a stay of thirty minutes the men began their journey up,arriving three hours later,cold and wet through,but none was worse for their experience.1.What was the purpose of the divers’ journey to the deepest point on the earth?A.To know if there were steps in the great depths.B.To explore if the telephone worked well in the great depths.C.To find out if there were water currents or life in the great depths.D.To learn if people could stand the severe cold in the great depths.2.Why did the divers set out early in the morning?A.They could avoid the cold at night.B.They could see at the bottom of the ocean.C.They could return to the surface during the day.D.They could stay long at the bottom.3.How about the telephone as the divers went down to the ocean floor?A.It kept working all the time.B.It stopped working at a depth of 3,000 feet and began working again at 30,000 feet.C.It stopped working at a depth of 3,000 feet and began working again after they reached the bottom.D.It stopped working at a depth of 3,000 feet and began working again when they returned to the same depth.4.What did the diver find on the ocean floor?A.Fish were not swimming freely in the dark water.B.There was no life but some small dead sea creatures.C.Fish were swimming as freely as they did near the surface.D.Fish were not swimming freely under the high water pressure.B(2017·江西丰城月考)Robert Ballard was born in 1942.From an early age,he loved the sea.Ballard grew up in Southern California.He spent his free time at the beach near his home.He enjoyed fishing and swimming.He even learned to dive.。

课时规范练1(模块一Unit1)A(2017·河北衡水中学五调)Given the tradition of students bringing apples to their teachers,it somehow seems fitting that an old apple barn(谷仓)will find a new life as a one-room schoolhouse.And it is just as fitting that a retired schoolteacher will become the caretaker of that historic treasure.My friend Velma,a teacher for more than 30 years,has been retired for some time now,but that doesn’t stop her giving history lessons at the old Englewood School,located on her family’s California farm.The lovingly restored building was constructed around 1850 as a home for a woodsman and later was used as apple barn.Then,in 1870 it began a new life as a schoolhouse.Originally located in the nearby Englewood meadow,it was now moved its current site in 1978 by Velma’s late husband and his brother,Robert and Richard,who thought it would help keep Velma busy in retirement.No nails had been used in the original construction,so each piece of wood had to be carefully marked and the building was reassembled(重装) on its new site.The brothers worked with much care and hard work to ensure a perfect fit of mitered(斜接的) corners.After the relocation,Velma and her family furnished the school with some of its original desks.They also added a collection of schoolbooks,the oldest dating back to 1845.Perhaps the school’s most cherished souvenir is the diploma of student Hettie Essig,who graduated on June 30,1904.Hettie’s daughter,Flora,presented Velma with the precious keepsake.Nowadays Velma gives tours to local schoolchildren and other groups,who learn what it was like to attend school back in the good old days.She has kids ring the school bell,recite the Pledge of Allegiance and sing GoodMorningtoYou as they might have done in days gone by.Then,with twinkling eyes and much enthusiasm,she tells the history of the school,and gives a short sample lesson.1.The Englewood School was originally built as .A.a man’s houseB.a schoolhouseC.a restroomD.an apple barn2.Which word can best describe the school’s being relocated?A.Inspiring.B.Refreshing.C.Fashionable.D.Challenging.3.What does the underlined part “the precious keepsake” in Para.4 mean?A.The school’s original supplies.B.The collection of schoolbooks.C.The oldest schoolbook.D.The diploma of Hettie Essig.4.Which can serve as the best title of the passage?A.The Good Old Days in the SchoolhouseB.A Mysterious Building with a Long HistoryC.A Historic One-Room SchoolhouseD.A Teacher Devoted to Restoring Old BuildingsB(2017·哈尔滨一模)In colleges around the country,most students are also workers.The reality of college can be pretty different from the images presented in movies andtelevision.Instead of the students who wake up late,party all the time,and study only before exams,many colleges are full of students with pressing schedules of not just classes and activities,but real jobs,too.This isn’t a temporary phenomenon.The share of working students has been on the rise since the 1970s,and one-fifth of students work all year round.About one-quarter of those who work while attending。

课时规范练15(模块五Unit3)A(2017·云南师范大学附中适应性考试)Marvin Minsky is often called the Father of Artificial Intelligence.His work helped inspire the creation of the personal computer and the Internet.Artificial IntelligenceBefore Minsky,computers were more like calculators,performing maths operations at speeds much faster than humans.Minsky was the first to say that computers can one day be as intelligent as human beings.He was so convinced about this,that in 1959,he and his friend John McCarthy invented the term “Artificial Intelligence” at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.Minsky wrote a book called Perceptrons,describing a particular type of “artificial neural(神经的)network”.Neural networks have made a comeback in a new field of Computer Science called Deep Learning.Deep Learning is used to recognize things and people in pictures(as seen in Facebook and Google Photos),language translation(try Google Translate sometimes),and so on.Robotics,Microscopes and Virtual RealityHow many of you have done Robotics at school and loved it?You have Minsky to thank again,for his work on Robotics.One of his biggest inventions was the confocal scanning microscope,an instrument that is still widely used today in medical and scientific research.Minsky was really futuristic.He created one of the first head-mounted graphics displays(头戴式图形显示),which gave rise to the exciting area of Virtual Reality.This year,Facebook is releasing Oculus,a virtual reality headset,which you can use to play games with your friends in a 3-D environment.Minsky’s major prediction that computers will one day become as intelligent as humans is now called the Theory of Singularity.1.Which of the following statements is TRUE?A.Minsky himself invented the term “Artificial Intelligence” in MIT.B.Minsky transformed computer into a machine more intelligent than human beings.C.Apart from Information Technology,Minsky’s invention is also used in medical field.D.Minsky invented a headset,with which players can play games in a 3-D environment.2.Which is NOT the function of Deep Learning?A.Recognize people in Facebook.B.Spot items in Google Photos.C.Summarize main idea of a passage.D.Translate English into French.3.Which is NOT one of Minsky’s characteristics according to the passage?A.Far-sighted.B.Creative.C.Pioneering.D.Considerate.4.In which section of a newspaper can you read this passage?A.Technology.B.Travel.C.Environment.D.Life.B(2017·广东华南师范大学附中三模)The exact work of ancient astronomers has led to a modern observation—our days are longer than they used to be.Not that you’d noticed: The new research in the Proceedings of the Royal Society A shows that it takes the Earth a tiny bit longer these days to complete a single rotation(转动)than it did millions of years ago.It’s the kind of stuff that’s measured in milliseconds per century,but those milliseconds add up.Over the 2,500 years or so,they’d total seven hours,which the Los Angeles Times puts this way,“If humanity had been measuring time with an atomic clock that started running back in 700 BC,today that clock would read 7 p.m.when the sun is directly overhead rather than noon.” Maybe more remarkable is that the work is the result of a tireless 40-year research into ancient timekeeping records dating back 2,700 years.。

课时规范练20(模块七Unit1)(2018·湖南益阳质检)The new film Chappie features an artificially intelligent robot that becomes self-aware and must learn to distinguish the competing forces of kindness and dishonesty in a human world.Directed by Neill Blomkamp,the film takes place in the South African city of Johannesburg.The movie’s events occur when the city has organized a force of police robots to fight crime.One of these robots,named “Chappie”,receives an upgrade that makes him self-aware.Existing AI computer systems modeled on the human brain are able to learn from experience.But Chappie goes beyond what current systems can do,because he becomes sentient.There’s a moment during the film when he says,“I am Chappie.”“That statement,if that’s truly result of a reasoning process and not trained,that is huge,” Wolfgang Fink,a physicist and AI expert at Caltech and the University of Arizona,said.The machine would be able to discriminate between self and nonself,which is a “key quality of any truly self-governing system,” Fink said.To create Chappie,actor Sharlto Copley performed the part,and a team of animators “painted” the robot over his performance.But unlike many other special-effects-heavy films,Chappie did not use motion capture,which involves an actor wearing a special suit with reflective markers attached and having cameras capture the performer’s movements.Instead,the animators did that by hand.Because Chappie is a robot,Chappie was given an expressive pair of “ears”,a forehead bar and a jaw bar,which could express a fairly wide range of emotions.In the film,Chappie’s “humanity” is sharply contrasted with the inhumanity of Hugh Jackman’s character Vincent Moore,who is developing a robot called the “Moose” in opposition to artificial intelligence.Jackman himself takes a more positive view of AI.“I’m a firm believer that the pull for human beings is toward the good generally outweighing the bad,” Jackman said.But Stephen Hawking have sounded alarms about the dangers of artificial intelligence,calling it humanity’s “biggest threat”.1.What can the underlined word “sentient”(Paragraph 2)be replaced by?A.Self-confident.B.Self-directed.C.Self-employed.D.Selfish.2.What would Sig,a robot,say if it has the ability of reasoning?A.This is Sig’s book.B.This book is mine.C.Sig’s book is over there.D.Who takes the book over there?3.How did the film show the inner feelings and affections of Chappie?A.By painting the robot over Copley’s performance.B.By attaching reflective markers on Copley’s suits.C.By using plenty of special effects in motion capture.D.By giving Chappie a pair of moving ears on the face.4.Why does Stephen Hawking see AI as the biggest threat to humans?A.He fears AI may be beyond our control one day.B.He fears AI may learn dishonesty from humans.C.Many scientists are still so optimistic about AI.D.Many people are developing robots against AI.

For centuries,medical pioneers have refined a variety of methods and medicines to treat sickness,injury,and disability,enabling people to live longer and healthier lives.“A salamander (a small lizard-like animal) can grow back its leg.Why can’t a human do the same?”asked Peruvian-born surgeon Dr.Anthony Atala in a recent interview.The question,a reference to work aiming to grow new limbs for wounded soldiers,captures the inventive spirit of regenerative medicine.This innovative field seeks to provide patients with replacement body parts.These parts are not made of steel;they are the real things—living cells,tissue,and even organs.Regenerative medicine is still mostly experimental,with clinical applications limited to procedures such as growing sheets of skin on burns and wounds.One of its most significant advances took place in 1999,wh en a research group at North Carolina’s Wake Forest Institute for Regenerative Medicine conducted a successful organ replacement with a laboratory-grown bladder.Since then,the team,led by Dr.Atala,has continued to generate a variety of other tissues and organs—from kidneys to ears.The field of regenerative medicine builds on work conducted in the early twentieth century with the first successful transplants of donated human soft tissue and bone.However,donor organs are not always the best option.First of all,they are in short supply,and many people die while waiting for an available organ;in the United States alone,more than 100,000 people are waiting for organ transplants.Secondly,a patient’s body may ultimately reject the transplanted donor organ.An advantage of regenerative medicine is that the tissues are grown from a patient’s own cells and will not be rejected by the body’s immune system.Today,several labs are working to create bioartificial body parts.Scientists at Columbia and Yale Universities have grown a jawbone and a lung.At the University of Minnesota,Doris Taylor has created a beating bioarti ficial rat heart.Dr.Atala’s medical team has reported long-term success with bioengineered bladders implanted into young patients with spina bifida (a birth defect that involves the incomplete development of the spinal cord).And at the University of Michigan,H.David Humes has created an artificial kidney.So far,the kidney procedure has only been used successfully with sheep,but there is hope that one day similar kidney will be implantable in a human patient.The continuing research of scientists such as these may eventually make donor organs unnecessary and,as a result,significantly increase individuals’ chances of survival.【解题导语】本文属于医学类短文阅读。

课时规范练7(模块三Unit1)A(2017·江西南昌四模)Soup on my nose,a nearly spilled glass of wine and chocolate down my white blouse,as blind dates suggest,this was a really messy one.I have never made so much noise with plates and glasses,nor had I dined with a never-before-met companion.This blind date was quite different: we could see nothing.“Put your left hand on my shoulder,and then we’ll take small steps forward,” said Michael,the visually impaired(视力障碍的)server,in an East London accent.We three felt our way carefully bumping past heavy curtains before being arranged at the dining table,where we would eat and drink three completely secret and unseen courses.Welcome to Alchemy in the Dark,Hong Kong’s first full-time restaurant in total darkness.Upon arrival,diners briefly tell the chef on their allergies(过敏性反应),lock away their mobile phones and enter the windowless restaurant,which can seat 25.When the meal is over,the contents of the delicious menu are shown—often to the diners’ surprise.“This is definitely duck,” my friend said,while eating chicken.“This soup,” I declared,“is carrot and coriander.” Even the too-close smell did not reveal the real tomato and cumin flavors.Dining in the dark changes everything:the sense of smell is heightened,manners go out of the window—using your hands to feel around the plate becomes normal—and there is a strange thrill in being able to ignore your facial expressions.Best of all?You don’t have to spend hours beforehand(事先)wondering what to wear.Alchemy in the Dark is at 16 Arbuthnot Road,Central,and is open Monday to Saturday,from 7 pm to 11 pm.Reservations are required.A three-course meal with wine pairing costs HK$700 per person.Five percent of all profits go to the Hong Kong Society for the Blind.1.How did the author and his companion arrive at their dining table?A.By using a map.B.By being led.C.By feeling their way.D.By finding it by themselves.2.According to the passage,which of the following is true?A.The diners might eat what they are allergic to.B.The author enjoyed a special lunch at Alchemy in the Dark.C.The restaurant donated some money to the H.K Society for the Blind.D.The diners aren’t allowed to take phones to the restaurant at any time.3.What can we learn about the author?A.He had the table booked.B.He shared the meal with a friend.C.He practiced how to eat in total darkness.D.He chose his clothes in advance for the meal.4.What is the last paragraph intended to do?A.Present some facts about eating in the dark.rm what to do at Alchemy in the Dark.C.Conclude the experience of eating at Alchemy in the Dark.D.Provide some information about Alchemy in the Dark.BMagic is the performance of tricks.It has been a part of almost every culture in the world.Magic shows might include a disappearing act,card tricks,or pulling a rabbit out of a hat.But what could that have to do with health?Kevin Spencer,an American magician goes beyond just entertaining crowds.He also makes magic to improve the lives of people with disabilities.What made him change the focus of his work was an accident.It took him almost a year to regain the skills he’d lost as a result of the accident and this made him think about using magic tricks as a tool for。

It is quite reasonable to blame traffic jams,the cost of gas and the great speed of modern life,but manners on the road are becoming horrible.Everybody knows that the nicest men would become fierce tigers behind the wheel.It is all right to have a tiger in a cage,but to have one in the driver’s seat is another matter.
Road politeness is not only good manners,but a good sense.It takes the most cool-headed drivers great patience to give up the desire to beat back when forced to face rude driving.On the other hand,a little politeness goes a long way towards reducing the possibility of quarrelling and fighting.A friendly nod or a wave of thanks in answering to an act of politeness helps to create an atmosphere of good will and becomes so necessary in modern traffic conditions.But such behavior of politeness is by no means enough.Many drivers nowadays don’t even seem able to recognize politeness when they see it.
However,misplaced politeness can also be dangerous.A typical example is the driver who waves a child crossing the street at a wrong place into the path of oncoming cars that may not be able to stop in time.The same goes for encouraging old ladies to cross the road wherever and whenever they want to.
An experienced driver,whose manners are faultless,told me it would help if drivers learnt to correctly join in a traffic stream without causing total blockages that give rise to unpleasant
feelings.Unfortunately,modern drivers can’t even learn to drive,let alone master the roadmanship(公路驾车技能).Years ago,experts warned us that the fast increase of the car ownership would demand more give-and-take from all road users.It is high time for all of us to take this message to heart.

In Los Angeles,drivers spend sixty-one hours every year stuck in traffic.These drivers know all too well how bad the traffic can be.“There’re too many cars,and you can’t move around a lot.”
Professor Cyrus Shahabi also knows about traffic jams.He lives more than 65 kilometers from his office at the University of Southern California,in Los Angeles.He is always late even with the help of a navigation(导航)system.He decided to develop a program called ClearPath for that.He says his program uses historical data to predict traffic conditions even before the driver leaves the house.“What’s
unique(独特的)is that we use a lot of data that’s currently become available including traffic
data,weather data,and we analyze that so that we can predict what’s going to happen in front of you when leave home.” Professor Shahabi says his system does more than just respond to current traffic。
