Unit 1 Tales of the unexplained一、阅读理解Nowadays more and more people are talking about genetically modified foods ( GM foods). GM foods develop from genetically modified organisms (有机体), which have had specific changes introduced into their DNA by genetic engineering techniques. These techniques are much more precise where an organism is exposed to chemicals to create a nonspecific but stable change. For many people, the hightech production raises all kinds of environmental, ethical, health and safety problems. Particularly in countries with long farming traditions, the idea seems against nature.In fact, GM foods are already very much a part of our lives. They were first put on the market in 1996. A third of the corn and more than half the cotton grown in the U. S. last year was the product of biotechnology, according to the Department of Agriculture. More than 65 million acres of genetically modified crops will be planted in the US this year. The genetic genie is out of the bottle.However, like any new product entering the food chain, GM foods must be subjected to careful testing. In wealthy countries, the debate about biotech is not so fierce by the fact that they have a large number of foods to choose from, and a supply that goes beyond the needs. In developing countries desperate to feed fastgrowing and underfed populations, the matter is simpler and much more urgent: do the benefits of biotech outweigh the risks?The statistics on population growth and hunger are disturbing. Last year the world's population reached 6 billion. The UN states that nearly 800 million people around the world are unhealthy. About 400 million women of childbearing age don' t have enough iron, which means their babies are exposed to various birth defeats.As many as 100 million children suffer from vitamin A deficiency, a leading cause of blindness.How can biotech help? Genetic engineering is widely used to produce plants and animals with better nutritional values. Biotechnologists have developed genetically modified rice and they are working on other kinds of nutritionally improved crops.Biotech can also improve farming productivity in places where food shortages are caused by crop damage attributable to drought, poor soil and crop viruses.1.The passage mainly talks about________.A. the world's food problemB. the development in biotechC. the genetically modified foodsD. the way to solve food shortages2.According to the passage, GM foods________.A. will replace naturally grown foodsB. are far better than naturally grown foodsC. may help to solve the problem of poor nutritionD. can cause serious trouble in developing countries3.The underlined sentence “The genetic genie is out of the bottle.” in Paragraph 2 probablymeans that________.A.GM foods are available everywhereB. the technology in producing GM foods is advancedC. genetic technology may have uncontrollable powersD. genetic technology has come out of laboratories into markets4.What's the writer's attitude towards GM foods?A. Enthusiastic.B. Cautious.C. Disapproving.D. Unbelievable.【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了转基因食品及其对人类生活的影响。

Unit 1 Tales of the unexplained一、阅读理解。
“BANG!” the door caused a reverberation (回声). It was just standing there, with father standing on one side, and me on the other side.We were both in great anger. “Never set foot in this house again!” stormed father. With tears welling up in my eyes, I rushed out of the flat and ran along the street.The street lights were shining, causing rather sad feelings. I wandered aimlessly.A young father who held a child in his arms walked past me. I felt as if I saw my childhood from another space: happy and carefree.But now … I don’t know whether it is because I have grown up or because dad is getting old. We differ in our ways of thinking. We are just like two people coming from two different worlds. It feels like there is an iron door between us that can never be opened.I wandered the streets, without a destination in mind. My heart was frozen on this hot summer night. As I walked on, there were fewer and fewer people on the streets, until I had only the street lights to keep me company. When I finally reached the high-rise apartment block in which I lived, I saw that the light was still on.I thought to myself: “Is father waiting for me, or is he still angry with me?”In fact, it was nothing. Perhaps, dad was throwing away some of his old stamps. Perhaps he thought they were useless. I never had the courage to tell him that I liked collecting stamps.All the lights were off except father’s.Dad was always like this. Maybe he didn’t know how to express himself. After shouting at me, he never showed any pity or any moments of regret.This was how he always was. He has been a leader for so long that telling everyone else what to do has become his second nature.The light was still on. “Am I wrong?” I whispered, maybe… With the key in my hand, I was as nervous as I had ever been. At last, I decided to open the door. As soon as I opened the door, tears ran down my cheeks. I suddenly realized that the irondoor that I had imagined between us did not exist at all. Love----it’s seco nd to none.1.Which is the correct order of the following events according to the passage?a. I opened the door and entered the house.b. I ran out into the street angrily.c. I reached the place where I lived and saw my house still brightly lit.d. I recalled my happy childhood.e. I began to walk about in the street without any aim.A. e, b, d, c, aB. b, e, d, c, aC. b, e, c, d, aD. e, b, c, a, d2.According to the author, why did his father often shout at him?A. Perhaps the father was getting older and older.B. Perhaps the son had already grown up.C. Perhaps they never agreed with each other.D. Perhaps the father had been used to doing that.3.What did the author mean by the underlined sentence “My heart was frozen on this hot summer night”?A. He felt lonely because there were so few people on the street.B. He felt uncomfortable because it was a very hot night.C. He didn’t know where to go at all.D. He had a bad cold on such a hot day.4.What was the author’s attitude towards his father at the end of the story?A. He loved his father.B. He was worried about his father.C. He was afraid of his father.D. He was dissatisfied with his father.【文章大意】因思维不同和观点迥异,父子俩仿佛是来自两个不同世界的人,两个人心里隔着一道铁门。

【译林湖南版】2011高考英语一轮复习提能训练Module 2Unit 1Tales of the unexplainedⅠ.填词Another US President won the Nobel Peace Prize for his calls to reduce the world’s stockpile of nuclear weapons and working for world peace on October 9,2009.US President Barack Obama won the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize on Friday.The Norwegian Nobel Committee praised Obama for “his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples”.The first African-American to hold his country’s highest office,Obama has called for disarmament(裁减军备)and worked to restart the stalled(陷入泥潭)Middle East peace process since taking office in January.“Very rarely has a person to the same extent as Obama captured the world’s attention and given his people hope for a better future,” the Committee said.Jimmy Carter won the Nobel Peace Prize in 2002 as ex-president for what the Nobel Prize Committee said “his decades of untiring effort to find peaceful solutions to international conflicts,to advance democracy and human rights,and to promote economic and social development”.Woodrow Wilson won the 1919 prize in recognition of his Fourteen Points peace programme and work in achieving inclusion of the Covenant of the League of Nations in the 1919 Treaty of Versailles at the end of World War One.“The President succeeded in bringing a design for a fundamental law of humanity into present-day international politics,”the Nobel Committee said.Theodore Roosevelt won the 1906 prize for his role in ending the bloody 1905 war between two of the world’s great powers,Japan and Russia.The result was the Treaty of Portsmouth signed by Russia and Japan on September 5,1905,at Portsmouth,New Hampshire. Title:__1__who won the Nobel Peace PrizeⅡ.简答题A vast dust storm that blew in from the deserts of Australia’s red centre has blanketed the country’s largest city and eastern coast in a red fog,causing widespread traffic chaos and severe flight delays.Residents from Sydney in New South Wales to Canberra inland and towns in southern Queensland awoke to a red sky and greatly reduced visibility after the country’s worst dust storm in 70 years blew in overnight.The Sydney Harbor Bridge and Opera House were covered in the red fog and hundreds of people were reported to suffer from breathing problems.Children,the elderly and those suffering from asthma(哮喘)were advised to stay indoors as even healthy adults reported “itchy throats” after walking through the thick fog.Commuters used face masks,originally intended to protect them from the spread of swine flu,to negotiate(越过)the blocked streets on their way to work.Some schools were closed and sports activities were called off as the conditions pushed air pollution levels to 1,500 times their normal levels—the highest on record.Passengers at the busy Sydney Airport faced delays of up to six hours for international flights and three hours for domestic trips,and some international flights were cancelled as visibility was reduced to just a few feet.Locals,ringing in to radio stations to express their shock at the red dawn.“It’s like a nuclear winter morning,”Daniel Hall told the Daily Telegraph,adding that when he awoke the sky was “bright red” and “all the cars were covered in dirt”.The dust hanging over Sydney had largely cleared by mid-afternoon,although nationalcarrier Qantas said severe delays would last all day because of diverted and late-running flights.The sandstorm,which measured more than 310 miles wide and 620 miles long,was caused by dust clouds blowing east from Australia’s dry interior,which has been attacked by the worst drought on record.It covered dozens of towns and cities in two states as strong winds snatched up tons of topsoil,threw it high into the sky and carried it hundreds of miles.1.Who were warned not to stay in the open air?(no more than 10 words)________________________________________________________________________2.What was the face mask originally intended for?(no more than 10 words)________________________________________________________________________3.What effect did the dust storm have on the flight?(no more than 8 words)________________________________________________________________________4.What is the main idea of the last paragraph?(no more than 8 words)________________________________________________________________________Ⅲ.阅读理解What 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 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 2100,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,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 technology may be changing the most basic condition of human existence,but many technical problems still must be cleared up on the way to this wonderful future.1.According to the passage,human death is now mainly caused by ________.A.diseases and aging B.accidents and warC.accidents and aging D.heart disease and war2.In the author’s opinion,today’s most important advance in technology lies in ________.A.medicine B.the InternetC.brain cells D.human organ3.Humans may live longer in the future because ________.A.heart disease will be far away from usB.human brains can decide the final deathC.the basic materials of cells will last foreverD.human organs can be repaired by new medicine4.How long can humans live in the future according to the passage?A.Over 100 years. B.More than 120 years.C.About 150 years.

Chinese paper cutting or "jianzhi" is the art of cutting paper designs, and the cut-outs are also used to decorate doors and windows, so they are sometimes called "chuang hua". Paper cutting has long been a symbol of Eastern charm.There are symmetrical(对称的)designs that are usually created by some folding and cutting. When unfolded, it forms a symmetrical design. Chinese cut-outs are normally symmetrical and are usually in an even number series of 2, 4, 24,etc.The oldest surviving paper cut-out is a symmetrical circle from the early 6th century found in Xinjiang, China. From the 7th to 13th century, paper cutting became popular especially during Chinese festivals. The art spread to the rest of the world in the 14th century. Throughout the Qing Dynasty many paper cutting skills were developed including drafting and the use of smoked papers. By the end of the Qing ruling, however, paper cutting was once on the decline because new art forms were being introduced. The Republic of China later tried to revive the art in the 1980s.Today, paper cut-outs are chiefly decorative. They decorate walls, windows, doors, columns, mirrors, lamps and lanterns in homes and are also used on presents or are given as gifts themselves. Entrances decorated with paper cut-outs are supposed to bring good luck. Paper cut-outs used to be used as patterns, especially for embroidery(刺绣).There are two methods of manufacture: one uses scissors, the other uses knives. In the scissor method, several pieces of paper —up to eight —are fastened together. The image is then cut with sharp, pointed scissors. Knife cuttings are fashioned by putting several paper on a relatively soft foundation consisting of a mixture of oil and ashes. Skilled crafters can even cut out different drawings freely without stopping.1.When can the existing oldest paper cutting date back to?A. about 1 500 years ago.B. about 1 600 years ago.C. about 1 400 years ago.D. about 600 years ago.2.The underlined word "revive" in Paragraph 3 can be replaced by "_______".A. surviveB. restoreC. copyD. fix3.Which of the following words can best summarize the last paragraph?A. History.B. Origin.C. Uses.D. Process.4.What may be the best title of the text?A. Paper — the Eastern CharmB. The History of Paper CuttingC.A Brief Introduction to Paper CuttingD.

The brightest star in the night sky, Sirius, is believed to be about 200300 million years old. The sun and the moon are much older — about 4.5 billion years old.New pictures taken by a telescope in space show ancient galaxies (星系) that blow those numbers away. Some of these images show galaxies that are about 13 billion years old. The universe itself is only about 13.7 billion years old, so these galaxies formed when the universe was very young.“We are looking back 13 billion years and seeing galaxies just 600 to 700 million years after the Big Bang,” says Richard Ellis who studied the pictures. The pictures came from the Hubble Space Telescope, which floats through space around the Earth, 353 miles up.Scientists found that the most distant reaches of space have fewer bright galaxies than closer regions. The decrease in the number of galaxies was not surprising, based on what astronomers have already learned about the universe. To look deep into space is the same as looking back in time, because light from faraway galaxies takes a long time to reach the Earth. When astronomers look at a picture of a distant star of galaxy, they are seeing light that took billions of years to travelto the Earth. So when scientists look at these new pictures of distant galaxies, they see the star or galaxy as it looked millions or billions of years ago, at a time when the first galaxies were just forming.To take these pictures, the telescope used a new tool called the Wide Field Camera 3, or WFC3. Like an ordinary camera, this one takes pictures using visible light. But in addition, it also records pictures at wavelengths the eye can not see, including ultraviolet(紫外线的) light and infrared(红外线的) light.All of the galaxies in these pictures showed up in a tiny area of the sky. This part of sky is so small that 150 pieces the same size would fit into the apparent size of the full moon. Because this part of the sky is so small and the WFC3 just started taking pictures this summer, the scientists say they're not sure that they'll find similar galaxies in every direction.But they do believe WFC3 will give scientists some very interesting information about the early universe. “This is a golden moment.” says Ellis.1. When did the Big Bang happen?A. About 13 billion years ago.B. About 13.7 billion years ago.C. About 600700 years ago.D. About 4.5 billion years ago.2. Why do fewer bright galaxies exist in deep space?A. Because the galaxies were too old.B. Because the telescope can't take pictures of them.C. Because the light of the galaxies can't be seen yet.D. Because their light is blocked by those in closer regions.3. The unique function of the WFC3 is that it can ______.A. provide information of galaxies in every directionB. be fixed on the outside of the Hubble Space TelescopeC. focus on the tiny area of the skyD. take picture using invisible light4. By saying “This is a golden moment.” in the last paragraph, Ellis meant ______.A. it is a special chance to find gold in other starsB. it is a wonderful time to observe a full moonC. it is an exciting time to research the early universeD. it is very convenient to take photos with WFC35. The purpose of the text is to ______.A. express the writer's interest in the universeB. describe astronomers' work on galaxiesC. present a scientific research report on the origin of the universeD. imagine traveling in space in the futureⅢ.阅读简答(10 min.)In the animal kingdom, weakness can bring about aggression in other animals. This sometimes happens with humans also. But I have found that my weakness brings out the kindness in people. I see it every day when people hold doors for me, pour cream into my coffee, or help me to put on my coat. And I have discovered that it makes them happy.From my wheelchair experience, I see the best in people, but sometimes I feel sad because those who appear independent miss the kindness in others I see daily. They don't get to see this soft side of others. Often, we try every way possible to avoid showing our weakness, which includes a lot of pretending. But only when we stop pretending we're brave or strong do we allow people to show the kindness that's in them.Last month, when I was driving home on a busy highway, I began to feel unwell and drove more slowly than usual. People behind me began to speed, horn or even shout at me. At the moment I decided to do something I had never done in twentyfour years of driving. I put on the car flashlights and drove on at a really low speed.No more angry shouts and no more horns!When I put on my flashlights, I was saying to other drivers, “I have a problem here. I am weak and doing the best I can. ” And everyone understood. Several times, I saw drivers who wanted to pass. They couldn't get around me because of the stream of passing traffic. But instead of getting impatient and angry, they waited, knowing the driver in front of them was in some way weak.Sometimes situations call for us to act strong and brave even when we don't feel that way. But those are few and far between. More often, it would be better if we don't pretend we feel strong when we feel weak or pretend that we are brave when we are scared.1. How do people feel when they offer their help? (No more than 2 words)________________________________________________________________ ________2. What reaction did other drivers have when the author drove very slowly at first? (No more than 5 words)________________________________________________________________ ________ 3. Why did other drivers behave differently when the author put on the car flashlights? (No more than 8 words)________________________________________________________________ ________4. What does the author advise us to do at last? (No more than 8 words)________________________________________________________________ ________Ⅳ.写作(25 min.)请你根据以下提示,结合生活中的一个事例,用英语写一篇短文,谈谈如何对待朋友。

This month, the singing competition, American Idol, will come to an end. For years, the popular show was a platform for rising artists. With a group of famous judges and a wide range of talents, it is clear that the competitive atmosphere of American Idol will remain unrivaled by any other show. After all, its success has been "unmatched in broadcasting history."American Idol came from the British series Pop Idol. Through an application, contestants came into the competition and thereafter, were chosen to audition(试音)for the show. Each candidate would have to perform a piece to the judges, and participate in a strict selection process. Not only would contestants have to sing in groups, they were sometimes tasked to perform pieces without musical instruments. At the end of this stage, only 24 o 36 artists were chosen to enter the semi-final stage. Soon, the fate of the contestants would be decided by the public. During the candidate’s live performance, a free telephone number was displayed on the screen for viewers to dial, to cast their vote. At the end of the night, only 13 lucky singers would be left in the competition; by the finals, only 8 contestants would remain. Finally, a runner-up(亚)and a winner were announced every season. Though only the winner would receive a million dollar reward and a significant record deal, other contestants would have had a chance to be known by the public. As the famous producer Simon Cowell once said, "The point of the show is not to be mean to loser, but to find a winner."As the final season of the program begins, past winners will return to the stage to say goodbye and a new winner will be announced. With amazing performances and an excellent cast of singers, the show’s conclusion will leave audiences nostalgic(怀旧的), but more satisfied than ever.1. Those who enter American Idol will _______.A. share the one million dollar reward togetherB. be asked to perform in pairs in the semi-finalsC. experience at least three rounds of performancesD. have the chance to become famous even if they fail2.
