B.Fridays.C.Sundays.答案:A【技巧点拨】听力题中词语的替换是非常常见的一种考查手段,如第5题中答案是A,因为在听力材料中有“do not open on Mondays”,这与题干中的“is closed”互相呼应。
英语试题中这种意义对等但是采用不同表达法进行替换的情况很常见。
抓住这一点,能大大提高得分率。

题组层级快练7 Unit 2 The Olympic GamesⅠ. 阅读理解(2017·广州市一模)Dujiangyan is the oldest man-made water system in the world, and a wonder in the development of Chinese science. Built over 2,200 years ago in what is now Sichuan Province in Southwest China, this amazing engineering achievement is still used today to irrigate over 6,000 square kilometres of farmland, take away flood water and provide water for 50 cities in the province.In ancient times, the region in which Dujiangyan now stands suffered from regular floods caused by over flow from the Minjiang River. To help the victims of the flooding, Li Bing, the region^ governor, together with his son, decided to find a solution. They studied the problem and discovered that the river most often overflowed when winter snow at the top of the nearby Mount Yulei began to melt as the weather warmed.The simplest fix was to build a dam, but this would have ruined the Minjiang River. So instead Li designed a series of channels built at different levels along Mount Yulei that would take away the flood water while leaving the river flowing naturally. Better still, the extra water could be directed to the dry Chengdu Plain, making it suitable for farming.Cutting the channels through the hard rock of Mount Yulei was a remarkable accomplishment as it was done long before the invention gunpowder and explosives. Li Bing found another solution. He used a combination of fire and water to heat and cool the rocks until they cracked and could be removed. After eight years of work, the 20-metre-wide canals had been carved through the mountain.Once the system was finished, no more floods occurred and the people were able to live peacefully and affluently. Today, Dujiangyan is admired by scientists from around the world because of one feature. Unlike modern dams where the water is blocked with a huge wall, Dujiangyan still lets water flow through the Minjiang River naturally, enabling ecosystems and fish populations to exist in harmony.1. What are the benefits of Dujiangyan according to the first paragraph?A. Reducing flooding and watering farmland.B. Protecting the mountain and reducing flooding.C. Watering farmland and improving water quality.D. Drying the river and supplying cities with water.2. What was the main cause of the Minjiang River's flooding?A. Heavy rains.B. Melting snow.C. Low river banks.D. Steep mountains.3. How was Li Bing able to break through the rocks of Mount Yulei?A. By using gunpowder.B. By flooding the rocks with water.C. By applying a heating and cooling technique.D. By breaking the rocks with hammers and spades.4. Why is Dujiangyan greatly admired by scientists today?A. It preserves much of the natural river life.B. It took very little time to complete the project.C. The building techniques used were very modern.D. It has raised the living standards of the local people.答案与解析【文章大意】本文介绍了中国古代水利工程都江堰的历史以及作用、优点。

The Olympic Games李仕才***阅读理解Have you heard of the following people?Maybe yes,maybe no.But they may be an inspiration for you.The Tree LadyKate Sessions was an American botanist and landscape architect closely associated with San Diego,California.After becoming the first woman to graduate from the University of California,Berkeley,she took a job as a teacher far south in the dry desert town of San Diego.Kate decided that San Diego needed trees more than anything else.Therefore this young woman singlehandedly started a movement transforming the town into the leafy,gardenfilled place as it is today.The Snowflake(雪花) ManWilson Bentley is one of the first known photographers of snowflakes.His enthusiasm for taking photos of snowflakes began from his boyhood and was often misunderstood in his time,but his determination revealed two important truths:no two snowflakes are alike;and each one is surprisingly beautiful.In 1931,he worked with William J.Humphreys of the U.S.Weather Bureau to publish Snow Crystals,a book containing 2,500 photographs.The Father of His CountryBy the late 1760s,George Washington had experienced firsthand the effects of rising taxes imposed(征收) on American colonists by the British,and came to believe that it was in the best interests of the colonists to declare independence from England.During the American War of Independence,he led the colonial forces to victory.In 1787,he was elected president of the Convention that wrote theU.S.Constitution.Two years later,Washington became America’s first president.His retirement from office after two terms established a tradition that lasted until 1940,when Franklin Delano Roosevelt won a third term.The 22nd Amendment(1951) now limits the president to two elected terms.【解题导语】本文是一篇应用文。

练案[17]必修四Unit 2Working the landⅠ.阅读理解A(2018·河南省高三一轮复习诊断调研联考) There's a revolution happening in the way that food is grown around the world.Vertical farming piles crops on top of one another in a climate controlled, indoor facility, and uses advanced technology to produce food in the most environmentally friendly way the world has ever seen.At AeroFarms in Newark, New Jersey, crops are piled more than 30 feet high in a 30,000 square foot space.They use aeroponic(气雾栽培) technology, involving misting the roots of the plants, using an astonishing 95% less water than conventional farming methods.David Rosenberg, CEO of AeroFarms told Seeker, “Typically, in indoor growing, the roots sit in water.If we mist nutrition to the root structure, the roots have a better oxygenation(氧合作用) .”AeroFarms uses no pesticides.The plants are grown in a reusable cloth made from recycled plastic, so no soil is needed to grow them.They also use a system of specialized LED lighting instead of natural sunlight, reducing their energy footprint even further.“Many people say ‘Sunless? Wait.Plants need sun.’ Actually the plants don't need yellow spectrum(光谱) .So we reduce our energy footprint by doing things like reducing certain types of spectrum to make it function as sunlight,” Rosenberg said.Dickson Despommier, an ecologist from Columbia University, was one of the first advocates of vertical farming.In 1999, he proposed that vertical farming could help feed our ever-growing, overpopulated cities, while using less water than current farming methods and reducing the need to transport food long-distances.Despommier likely imagined his idea would be taking shape on a global level, just 18 years later.There are now vertical farms in Canada, Panama, Britain, and throughout America.AeroFarms is currently building another vertical farm facility in an old steel factory that's larger than a football field.They expect it will grow up to 2 million pounds of greens every year.Rosenberg believes that vertical farming is truly the way of the future.“It's a tough business, but it's one that'll stay with a bigger and bigger impact.”文章大意:文章主要讲述了垂直农业的好处。

高三英语一轮复习课时作业17:Unit 2 Working the land
Unit 2 Working the landⅠ.阅读理解AA couple of months ago, we were in a hurry to get somewhere, but it seemed that my 6yearold daughter had an instinctive (本能的) capacity to slow things down. In response I had become impatient, frustrated and unkind. As I unloaded my apology, she said, “Mom, it's OK. You've never been a mom before. This is your first time. You're just trying. It's OK.”Her response made me feel ashamed. She had been able to give me what I had refused to give her just moments before —mercy, understanding and sympathy. And I needed it. We all do. In fact, there may be nothing more needed today in our nation and communities.It's no wonder that former Westboro Baptist Church member Megan has transformed her idea. She spent 20 years representing her family's beliefs with messages of hate towards blacks, Jews and those who support abortion. When she finally started being able to engage in (参与) civil dialog with her “enemies”,she found that “people on the other side were not the ones I had been led to believe ...”Finally, she left the faith of her family. What surprised her most was the forgiveness and understanding she experienced from those who had been her former “enemies”.My experience with my daughter teaches me that the ability to engage “with the other”,to form a judgment, to avoid tough judgements, and to show sympathy is learned first, and practiced best, at home —even if, as in my case, it is my children who teach me the lesson. Researchers believe the key to developing those abilities in our children lies in how we respond to their feelings, especially the negative ones.We should all make efforts to create a world where we are all better able to take the perspective (观点) of others, stay away from tough judgments and recognize and respect the humanity in the souls around us. This desire makes my own struggling to be better worth all the efforts every day.1.What did the author think of her daughter's reaction?A.Her daughter was not so kind.B.Her daughter did better than her.C.Her daughter's words annoyed her.D.Her daughter should make an apology.2.The author mentions the example of Megan in order to ________.A.show that blacks and Jews are treated unfairlyB.judge whether what Megan did was right or notC.show that there are no forever enemies in our lifeD.prove that people should show understanding to each other3.Why did Megan change her attitude towards her former “enemies”?A.Because she forgave them at last.B.Because she knew them better later.C.Because she made herself understood by them.D.Because she felt great sympathy towards them.4.What's the author's attitude toward our future?A.Hopeful.B.Doubtful.C.Cautious. D.Worried.BRecently I and other Red Cross volunteers met a group of victims from Hurricane Katrina. We were there, as mental health professionals, to offer “psychological first aid”and I was struck by the simple healing power of presence. As we walked in the gate to the shelter, we were greeted with a burst of gratitude (感激) from the first person we met. I felt appreciated, but also guilty, because I hadn't really done anything yet.I first realized the power of presence many years ago when a friend's mother passed away unexpectedly. I received a call saying she had just passed away. I wanted to rush down there immediately, but didn't want to intrude (打扰) on this very personal period of sadness. I was torn about what to do. Another friend with me then said, “Just go. Just be there.”I did, and I will never regret it.Since then, I have not hesitated to be in the presence of others. Once I sat at the bedside of a young man suffering from the pain of his AIDSrelated dying. He was not awake, and obviously unaware of others' presence. However, the atmosphere was by no means solemn. His family, playing guitars and singing, allowed him to be present with them as though he were still fully alive.In my life, I am repeatedly struck by the healing power of presence. In it, none of us are truly alone. It not only is something we give to others but also changes me for the better.5.Why were the hurricane victims grateful to the author?A.He built shelters for them.B.He gave immediate first aid to them.C.He came to stay with them.D.He brought mental health professionals.6.What did the author do when his friend's mother passed away?A.He hesitated over whether to go.B.He went to his friend's at once.C.He knew what to do instantly.D.He decided not to disturb his friend.7.What does the underlined word “solemn”in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A.Heavy but warm.B.A little sad but cosy.C.Relaxing and delightful.D.Very serious and unhappy.8.What has the author learned from his experience?A.A friend in need is a friend indeed.B.Being present can make a big difference.C.The family harmony is the happiest thing in life.D.Being a volunteer can make one's life more significant.CSquare foot gardening is a type of gardening made popular by Mel Bartholemew.It is based on the idea that the wide rows in traditional gardening are a waste of time, work, water and area.It shows that quality vegetables can be grown in less space with less work.In this method, the garden space is divided into “beds”.Each bed is 4’×4’(16 sqft) (120cm×120cm, 1.4m2).The beds are separated by paths (小路).These beds are further divided into squares of about one square mon spacing is one plant per square for larger plants such as broccoli, four per square for medium large plants like lettuce, nine per square for medium small plants like spinach, and sixteenper square for small plants such as onions and carrots.The weeds (杂草) are removed from the beds and the plants are watered from the paths.This stops the soil from being compacted (压紧).Benefits of square foot gardening:·Much less work.Normal gardening needs heavy tools to loosen the soil.In this method, the soil is never compacted and it remains loose.·Water savings.The loose ground holds the water better.This type of garden needs water less often than other methods.Also, water is placed very near the plant roots.Less water is wasted.·Very few weeds.The vegetables form a living mulch (覆盖物) and shade out many weeds before they can start to grow.·Pesticides (杀虫剂) are not needed.Natural ways to keep pests away work very well in a closespace.Many different types of plants in a small area also stop plant diseases from spreading easily.9.Why does square foot gardening become popular?A.It makes full use of space.B.It is suggested by Mel Bartholemew.C.It provides more vegetables for people.D.It produces vegetables of higher quality.10.Why is the gardening called square foot gardening?A.Because vegetables are grown in the squares.B.Because you can grow vegetables anywhere by using it.C.Because the smallest bed in it is only one square foot.D.Because the places where vegetables are grown are too small.11.What can we infer from the text?A.Loose soil is good for plant growth.B.Onions and carrots need more space.C.Compacted soil is important to some plants.D.Square foot gardening needs some heavy tools.12.Why are there fewer weeds in square foot gardening?A.Because weed killers are used.B.Because weeds can't get sunlight.C.Because weeds are short of water.D.Because weeds have been removed.DI used to believe courtesy was a thing of the past. Very seldom have I encountered a courteous human being in this modern era.Recently, I had to change my thinking, when I came face to face with just such a human being in a coffee place, with my two daughters. The place was crowded as usual and we had to climb steep (陡的) stairs in order to find an empty table. After enjoying coffee and snacks, we went down the narrow stairs, where there was hardly any space for another person to either climb up or come down.Just as I was in the middle of the stairs, a man entered the main entrance of the restaurant which was right in front of the staircase (楼梯). I was sure I would be pushed roughly by this man going up. I kept coming down as fast as I could. My daughters were already down, looking up at me worriedly, hoping I would reach them before the stranger started walking up the stairs, knowing I was a nervous sort.Nearly reaching them, I noticed the man still standing near the door. I reached my daughters and passed the stranger at the entrance door which he kept holding open. I looked back, thinking he was still at the door, deciding whether to go in or find another less crowded place. I saw him going up the stairs, two at a time. I told my daughters about it and all three of us felt bad that we did not even thank the courteous gentleman who was actually holding the door open for us ladies to pass through before going up.Such well mannered people are hard to find these days when pushing is very common in our advanced but aggressive society. We applauded for his chivalry (彬彬有礼).13.What is the meaning of the underlined word “courtesy”in Paragraph 1?A.A brave action. B.Sacrifice spirit.C.A considerate action. D.Selfish behavior.14.What did the author think of the man at the first sight of him?A.He was in a hurry.B.He would wait for her.C.He would pass her rudely.D.He was a man with good manners.15.What can we learn about the man from Paragraph 4?A.He might be a waiter of the café.B.He might have an urgent business to do.C.He loved a daughter of the author.D.He would hold the door open for all.Ⅱ.阅读七选五Do People Need Small Talk to Be Happy?Psychologists (心理学家) have long said that connecting with others is an important part of happiness, but just how much conversation we require is under examination. In one study, researchers found that small talk made up only 10% of their conversation related to happiness. __1__ Scientists believe that small talk could promote bonding. Late last year, Princeton researchers reported that small talk keeps closeness with loved ones, and isn't merely the stuff of awkward exchanges with strangers.Still, chatting with strangers could brighten your morning. In a series of experiments, psychologists gave Chicago passengers different directions about whether to talk with fellow passengers —something they typically avoided. __2__ None of the chatters reported being rejected.Small talk can also help us feel connected with our surroundings. People who smiled at, made eye contact with, and briefly spoke with their Starbucks baristas (服务员) reported a greater sense of belonging than those who rushed through the transaction (交易). __3__ One report found that when volunteers broke the silence to chat with gallery goers, the visitors felt happier and more connected with the exhibit than those who were not approached.__4__ In one study, people who were rated “less curious”by researchers had trouble getting a conversation rolling on their own, and had greater luck building closeness with others when they were supplied with questions that encouraged personal disclosure (透露). But people who were considered “curious”needed no help when transforming conversations about ordinary things into personal exchanges. __5__A.The same is true of gallery goers.B.But don't play down small talk just yet.C.They found that small talk is related to happiness.D.Those told to chat with others reported a more pleasant journey.E.Making small talk is an important skill for all the social situations.F.A “curious mindset”,the author concluded, can lead to “positive social interactions”.G.Of course, some people are better than others at turning small talk into something bigger.【『答案』『解析』】Ⅰ.阅读理解1.『解析』选B细节理解题。

题组提分练17 Unit 2 Working the land限时35分钟加黑体小题训练推理判断题之观点态度题阅读理解A(2018·天津红桥区模拟) 体裁:应用文话题:旅游与交通难度:★★☆☆☆Some adventure travel types may laugh at the idea of getting on a cruise ship, thinking of it as being too usual. They should get over that.There are places in the world that are best seen and experienced on water, including new destinations. Check out our picks for the 4 best cruises.Antarctica and the South Shetland IslandsIcebergs, glaciers (冰川), whales, penguins and elephant seals are the big attractions to the “Great White Continent”. In this destination list, you'll dress a heavy jacket for tours exploring the cold, bare landscape, bluelighted icebergs and other sights. Upscale French line Ponant Cruises' 264passenger ships cruise the region late November through January.The GalapagosNature rules over these islands, about 600 miles off the coast of Ecuador (厄瓜多尔), and local creatures are surprisingly unafraid of humans. You may find yourself stepping over sea lions to cross a beach, eyetoeye with a bluefooted bird, diving with young sea lions and getting very close to a curious iguana (鬣蜥). The 92passenger Celebrity Xpedition cruises the islands yearround.AlaskaSeeing a glacier break brings high drama. On small ship line Alaskan Dream Cruises you'll also communicate with bald eagles and seals as you quietly paddle in a remote bay. Travel routes avoid the tourist spots in favor of a Southeast Alaska wild experience—you're more likely to see a leaping whale than a jewelry store. The line's ships carry fewer than 60 passengers on spring and summer cruises.The ArcticCome for the polar bears that rule the North Pole, but stay for the astonishing event of the Midnight Sun, plus the sights of glaciers, icebergs and surprising areas of wildflowers. Keep your telescope balanced to spot elephant seals, white whales,bearded seals, rare birds and arctic deer in an extremely beautiful landscape. Hurtigruten's 328passenger polar discovery ship MS Fram sails her June to August.【语篇解读】本文介绍了四个最有趣的游轮之旅。

词汇微存①think of...as...把……看作……;②surprisingly adv.令人吃惊地;出乎意料的阅读理解B(原创) 体裁:记叙文话题:社会难度:★★☆☆☆“Panda fever” is in the air in Japan, as Tokyo's Ueno Zoo begana limited public exhibition—two and a half hours each day—of its sixmonthold giant panda cub, Xiang Xiang, on Dec. 19.Tokyo Governor Yuriko Koike was all smiles after coming out of the zoo's panda house, telling reporters that the baby panda was “just adorable”. “She climbed a tree and even showed us her cute little back,” Koike said. “I was very anxious to see how she would climb down.”Xiang Xiang's parents, Shin Shin and Ri Ri, arrived from China in February 2011 and were introduced to the public soon after the following month's devastating earthquake and tsunami, offering a piece of good news for an anguished (极度痛苦的) nation. Xiang Xiang is the first cub to be born in the Ueno Zoo in five years.For decades, the animal has never failed in its duty as China's ambassador of friendship and has won the hearts of thousands of people worldwide.(说明熊猫的作用)Panda diplomacy started in 1957, when a giant panda named Ping Ping was sent to the former Soviet Union as a national gift. But the animals didn't draw worldwide attention until 1972, when then—Premier Zhou Enlai announced that China would give two pandas, Lin Lin and Xing Xing, to the US during then—US President Richard Nixon's icebreaking visit to China. On April 20, 1972, over 8,000 people waited in the rain for Lin Lin and Xing Xing's arrival at the National Zoo in Washington, DC. The zoo received over one million visitors in the first month after the pandas arrived.(回顾熊猫外交政策)A series of pandas were sent to Japan, France, Germany and the UK, respectively, in the years that followed. As of today, China has bu ilt longterm “panda relations” with 14 countries, with 48 giant pandas now living abroad.Nearly 60 years later, the fever for these Chinese duties has not cooled. And they'll keep bringing joy and happiness to people across the world.(说明益处,暗示作者态度)【语篇解读】“香香”初亮相,在日本掀起“熊猫热”。
