Unit 8 Adventure单元综合检测Ⅰ.阅读理解(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)AExactly a decade has passed since a man called Oxygen first threw himself across America.Known for his jumping ability，Oxygen，a Czech，who jumped a nearly 10footwide abyss (深渊)．Today，Petr Kops，21，is wearing Oxygen's pants．“I did not know Oxygen personally，but my sister did，” Kops said.“I wear his trousers for good luck.” Minutes later，Kops was standing at the edge of a 70foot abyss called Broken Bones.While it may seem suicidal (自杀的)，jumping across a gap is actually an extreme sport that is gaining in popularity.Called rock jumping，or simply jumping，this activity is taking place in the AdrspachTeplice Rocks，a remote nature preserve in the northeast part of the Czech Republic.Known for its 11 square miles of sandstone，the region has been loved by lifelong rock climbers.“The aim is to get to the top of as many towers as you can.” said Vladimir Prochazka，known as June Bug，a 59yearold climber and a collector of Czech rock climbing histories.Jumping is often the most possible way to get to the tower.In most cases，climbers jump with a rope tied around their waist.If they miss the landing — which is not uncommon — they will fall into the wall of the base tower.“Jumping requires fearlessness，” Prochazka said.“Broken or damaged bones are fairly common.” Still，there are those who prefer to experience by jumping without a rope.Among the most wellknown of these adventurers are Petr Prachtel and his wife，Zorka，who helped create the sport in the 1960s.They pioneered countless jumps，sometimes without the safety of a rope.【语篇解读】文章介绍了起源于捷克共和国的跳岩运动。

father，Nicolo Polo，and his uncle were wealthy traders who regularly travelled to parts of the East.They visited Cathay(the old name for China) and became friends with Kublai Khan，the great Mongol Emperor.Itwas only when they returned to Italy from China that Marco，who was now 15 years old，first met his father.Marco decided to join them for their next trip.It took them more than three years to travel the 9,000 miles to Shangtu，capital of the Mongol Empire.The great Khan gave them a warm welcome and they stayed in his huge marble palace.Soon young Marco became a great favourite of the Emperor and was one of his most trusted friends.Marco quickly learned the Chinese language and customs because he travelled around and talked to many people.Before he reached the age of thirty he was made Governor of Yangchow Province.The rest of his time was spent either at the emperial court or on long tours of the outlying regions，gathering information for the Emperor.After nearly seventeen years in the East，Marco and his father prepared to return home.The first part of their journey was by sea，then they continued by land from the Persian Gulf.When they finally arrived back in Venice their family and friends were surprised to see them again.They had been away for almost 25 years and everybody thought that they must have died a long time before.36．Why did Marco Polo decide to travel to the East?A．Because his father was a traveler.B．Because he wanted to seek wealth in the East.C．Because he loved to see more of the world.D．Not stated in the passage.37．How long did Marco travel back from the East to Italy?A．3 years. B．8 years.C．5 years. D．None of the above38．Which of the statements inferred from the passage is NOT true?A．Marco was born in his father's absence.B．Marco was a learned scholar on Chinese culture.C．When Marco finally returned home，the new century had just begun.D．The journey back home was more difficult than the journey to China.39．Where can you most probably find this passage?A．In a historical symposium(研讨会)．B．In a historical reader.C．In a daily newspaper.D．In a popular magazine.BChildren who spend more time reading with their parents have a greater chance of becoming better readers than those who don't.With the help from their parents，children can learn techniques to improve their reading skills.“A lot of parent s think after their child learns to read，they should stop reading to them，”Donna George said.“They are sadly mistaken.”George offers her services to parents at the Title I Learning Centers.She said reading aloud to children may be the most valuable thing parents can do.“It is better for children to hear things at a higher level than where they are，”George said.“Parents are their child's first teacher.”Paren ts help their children build listening，phonics(语音), comprehension and vocabulary skills when they read aloud to them.Before parents can identify reading problems, they should escape the enemytelevision and limit the time their children spend watching tel evision.George suggested not allowing kids to have a TV in their bedrooms，setting a schedule of when kids can watch or keeping a list of how many programs children watch.Louise Joines said while her 14yearold daughter and 10yearold son enjoy reading，the television sometimes becomes a distraction.So she tries to build the situation by suggesting books the entire family will enjoy reading together，like the Harry Potter series.Parents who do not read themselves should not count on their children being enthusiastic about it.If parents would read to their children at least 15 minutes every day, children would not have so many problems in school.It is the parents' job to help build that desire in their children，and of course to know what kind of books to read is also important.40．According to George，reading aloud to children________.A．help them correct mistakesB．is helpful to their readingC．is parents' first duty to their childrenD．can get children out of television's attraction41．The underlined word in Paragraph 4 means something that ________.A．can improve children's readingB．can help children's right way of readingC．can make children interested in readingD．can make children not attentive42．What does the fourth paragraph mainly want to show is important?A．Reading skills.B．Reading speed.C．Reading materials.D．Reading environment.43．If the passage is not completed，which of the following can follow the fifth paragraph?A．Parents choose reading materials for their children.B．Advice is given to control their children.C．What TV programs children can watch during reading.D．How children improve their reading by themselves.CThere are lots of sights to see on the Big Island of Hawaii.The island is filled with lush foliage (叶子)，tropical wildlife，and natural views.There are things such as volcanoes，pineapple farms.Visitors get to see things that many tourists never even know exist.Visitors are kept safe and secure by using an experienced guide company.Sightseeing can be completed by many means of transportation.There is something for everyone；they just have to decide the time they have and the amount of energy they wish to expend(花费)．One of the favorite forms of sightseeing is by hiking.The island has a number of hiking trails.Kayaking(划独木舟)is another favored method of getting around.Kayaks can take the tourist to areas inaccessible by other means.There is also horseback riding，fourwheeling，and helicopters.There are several choices to choose from，offering something that attracts everyone.What the tourist gets to see and do is directly affected by the choice they make in moving about the Hawaiian Islands.Helicopters can show the entire Big Island in one trip，but the tourist does not get to see anything up close and personal.Seeing the island by air，offers a view that is unequaled(无可比拟的)by any other method.An ecotour is more than the thing for people who wish to get up close and personal with the land and nature in the Big Island.Hiking，biking，kayaking，and more are the order of the day.However，these tours offer unbelievable experiences.Participants get to interact with nature.The Big Island of Hawaii also offers coach tours.Tourists are able to move quickly，efficiently，and comfortably from sight to sight.It gives the tourist the opportunity to see a lot of things in a short period of time.This is perfect for those who prefer to enjoy the culture of the island.44．What would be the BEST title for the passage?A．Big Island Sightseeing Tour Offers Many OpportunitiesB．Several Tips on Traveling on the Big Island of HawaiiC．The Most Popular Places of Interest on the Big IslandD．The Different Cultures and Customs of the Big Island45．If you want a safe and secure tour of the Big Island，you should________.A．make a good plan ahead of timeB．travel with your close friendsC．choose the best transportationD．use an excellent guide company46．The underli ned word“inaccessible”in Paragraph 3 probably means________.A．easy to get to B．difficult to reachC．dangerous to cover D．impossible to find47．If you want to enjoy the whole view of the island，you'd better travel________.A．by hiking B．by bikeC．by air D．by kayakingDThe man who found an easier way for people to cut grass and weeds died in Houston on June 25th.He was 85 years old.George Ballas was born in Louisiana.He joined the military at 17.He served in World War Ⅱ and the Korean War.After the military，he became a dance teacher in the dance school.In the 1950s，he built a dance studio of his own in Houston.People called it the biggest in the world.But Mr.Ballas sold the studio in 1964.By the early seventies，he was on to the next big thing.The idea had come to him at a car wash.He watched the needlelike bristles(刷子毛)of the brushes as they went round and round against his car.Could a similar idea be used to cut grass in places out of reach of someone pushing a lawn mower(割草机)？To find out，he placed lengths of fishing line through holes in a tin can.He attached the can to the spinning(旋转)part of a grass machine.The result？A revolution for millions of people who cut grass for a living or just to keep their neighbors happy.George Ballas be came known as the “Weed King”．As he once told the Houston Chronicle，“A Weed Eater comes along once in a lifetime.”His invention now still works well in corners and along walls and fences.The noise may not be the nicest，but nor is a loud mower.Just as weed expert Bill Curran at Penn State University points out，they avoid the use of chemicals.Or the labor of pulling weeds by hand.48．Before teaching in a dance school，George ________.A．served in the armyB．studied in a military schoolC．was a dance studio builderD．made a living by cutting grass49．How long did George keep his dance studio?A．15 years. B．20 years.C．Less than 14 years. D．More than 50 years.50．Which of the following is NOT true of George's invention?A．It is welcomed by people.B．It made him become a weed expert.C．It could be used where mowers can't reach.D．He thought of the idea when washing his car.51．We know from the last paragraph that________.A．the machine makes loud noiseB．the machine can work on walls and fencesC．George Ballas became famous for his inventionsD．George Ballas had worked at Penn State UniversityEOutdoor Survival Provides Adventure Worldwide Although there are no state controlled survival courses in Britain or the United States，there are various independent organizations offering similar activities.Students can take part in outdoor training courses through university clubs and societies.Anyone can register(登记，注册)with such groups，which then organize courses，training and trips for all members.One of the most popular outdoor training programmes in both the US and Britain，is Outward Bound(户外训练)．It was founded in 1941 in Wales and attracts hundreds of thousands of adventurous types every year.The courses are intended to broaden minds through experiences that buildconfidence，selfesteem(自尊)and character.As well as specialist courses such as canoeing，leadership skills and sailing，participants can take part in week long adventure training camps which include a host of sports and survival training education skills.Michael Williams，an American student，took part in an Outward Bound course last year.He said：“We learned lots of first aid skills，lots of natural history，lots of environmental facts，and took part in a wildlife preservation programme.Beyond that，my favourite skills learned were sailing and rock climbing.”Courses can last up to 40 days and are open to anyone over the age of 14.Students must be in general good health，but do not need to be experienced in outdoor sports.There is no selection process；everyone is welcome，although new participants are advised to pick a course matching their physical capacity(体力)．Most of the British courses take place in the Brecon Beacons in Wales.Another similar organization is the UK Survival School，which includes courses on learning to live with the environment，sailing and winter survival.On a basic survival weekend students will learn how to get water and food，how to make fire and cook with it，to find and build a shelter，control survival life support，how to cross rivers，send off a distress signal，and to use compasses by day and night.According to the leaders，such adventures are“an awakening，an exploration into the unknown”．Outward Bound believes that participants will“use mind and body traveling some of the Earth's roughest wilderness areas.”52．From the first paragraph，we know________.A．students are not allowed to take courses in the state schoolsB．students can take survival courses in the state schoolsC．survival courses are banned in Britain and the USD．survival courses are not offered in the state school53．The advantage of the training courses is that________.A．participants can make friends with othersB．participants can visit some places of interestC．participants can experience different adventuresD．participants can learn how wonderful nature is54．In an Outward Bound course last year，the most exciting experience Michael Williams had was________.A．Learning first aid skillsB．collecting facts of environmentC．rock climbing and sailingD．preserving wildlife55．What's the writer's purpose to write this passage?A．To persuade readers to take part in the training courses.B．To tell readers the danger of this training course.C．To introduce the wonders of the world to readers.D．To introduce the training course to readers.Ⅳ.任务型读写(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分)Psychologists tell us that there are four basic stages that human beings pass through when they enter and live in a new culture.This process, which helps us deal with culture shock, is the way our brain and our personality reacts to the strange new things we meet with when we move from one culture to another.Culture shock begins with the “honeymoon stage”．This is the period of time when we first arrive in which everything about the new culture is strange and exciting.We may be suffering from “jet lag” but we are thrilled to be in the new environment.You see new sights, hear new sounds and language and eat new kinds of food.This honeymoon stage can last for quite a long time because we feel we are involved in some kind of great adventure.Unfortunately, the second stage of culture shock can be more difficult.After we have settled down into our new life，we can become very tired and begin to miss our homeland and our family.This period of cultural adjustment can be very difficult and lead to the new arrival rejecting or pulling away from the new culture.This “rejection stage”can be quite dangerous because the visitor may develop unhealthy habits.This stage is considered a crisis in the process of cultural adjustment and many people choose to go back to their homeland or spend all their time with people from their own culture speaking their native language.Almost all the little problems that everybody has in daily life seem to be much bigger and more disturbing when faced within a foreign culture.The third stage of cul ture shock is called the “adjustment stage”．This is when you begin to realize that things are not so bad in the host culture.Your sense of humour usually becomes stronger and you realize that you are becoming stronger by learning to take care of yourself in the new place.Things are still difficult, but you are now a survivor!The fourth stage c an be called “adaptation stage”．Now you feel quite comfortable in your new surroundings.You can cope with most problems that occur.You may still have problems with the language, but you know you are strong enough to deal with them.If you meet someone from your country who has just arrived, you can be the expert on life in the new culture and help them to deal with their culture shock.There is a fifth stage of culture shock which many people don't know about.This is called “reverse culture shock”．Surprisingly, this occurs when you go back to your native culture and find that you have changed and that things there have changed while you have been away.Now you feel a little uncomfortable back home.Life is a struggle!Title：Culture Shock学校网站新开设了一个“英语写作”栏目(column)，以便学生发表(post)英语作文，进行交流，提高写作能力。

This daring Frenchman was about to 21 on a tight rope between the two towers of the World Trade Center.Philippe took his first 22 with great care. The wire held. Now he was 23 he could do it. 24 only a balancing pole, Philippe walked his way across a 25 of 131 feet. Soon the rush-hour26 began to notice.

He wasn’t satisfied with just 30 .At times, he would turn, sit down, and 31 go to his knees. Once, he had the astonishing 32 to lie down on the thin thread.

Some tourists go to see battlefields or religious shrines．Others are looking for culture, or simply want to have their picture taken in front of famous places. But most European tourists are looking for a sunny beach to lie on.Northern Europeans are willing to pay a lot of money and put up with a lot of inconveniences for the sun because they have so little of it. Residents of cities like London, Copenhagen, and Amsterdam spend a lot of their winter in the dark because the days are so short, and much of the rest of the year in the rain. This is the reason the Mediterranean has always attracted them．Every summer, more than 25 million people travel to Mediterranean resorts and beaches for their vacation．They all come for the same reason：sun!The huge crowds mean lots of money for the economies of Mediterranean(地中海)countries ．Italy’s 30,000 hotels are booked solid every summer ．And 13 million people camp out on French beaches, parks, and roadsides. Spain’s long sandy coastline attracts more people than anywhere else.37 million tourists visit yearly, or one tourist for every person living in Spain.But there are signs that the area is getting more tourism than it can handle. The Mediterranean is already one of the most polluted seas on earth. And with increased tourism, it’s getting worse. The French can’t figure out what to do with all the garbage(垃圾)left by campers around St. Tropez. And in many places, swimming is dangerous because of pollution.None of this, however, is spoiling anyon e’s fun. The Mediterranean is more popular every year with tourists. Obviously, they don’t go there for clean water and solitude. They tolerate traffic jams and seem to like crowded beaches. They don’t even mind the pollution. No matter how dirty the water is, the coastline still looks beautiful. And as long as the sun shines, it’s still better than sitting in the cold rain in Berlin, London, or Oslo.36. The writer seems to imply that Europeans travel mostly for the reason that .A. they want to see historic remains or religious spotsB. they are interested in different cultural traditions and customC. they would like to take pictures in front of famous sitesD. they wish to escape from the cold, dark, rainy days back at home37. Which country attracts more tourists than the others? A. Italy. B. France. C. Spain. D. Greece.38. At the end of Paragraph 3, the word “for” is used in the expression “one tourist for every person living in Spain”. Here, “for” can best be replaced by .A.in comparison withB.toC. on behalf ofD. against39. According to the passage, which of the following Mediterranean resorts and beaches?A. Polluted water.B. Crowded beaches.C. Traffic jams.D. Rainy weather.BNervous suspects(嫌疑犯) locked up in Britain’s newest police station may feel relieved by a pleasant yellow colour on the door. If they are close to confessing a crime, the blue on the wall might tip the balance.Gwent Police have abandoned colours such as greys and browns of the 20th-century police cell(牢房) and have used colour psychology to decorate them.Ystrad Mynach station, which recently opened at a cost of ￡ 5 million, has four cells with glass doors for prisoners who suffer from claustrophobia(幽闭恐惧症).Designers have painted the frames yellow, which researchers say is calming colour. Other cells contain a royal blue line because psychologists believe that the colour is likely to encourage truthfulness.The station has 31 cells, including 12 with a “live scan” system for drunken or disturbed prisoners , which detects the rise and fall of their chest. An alarm alerts officers if a prisoner’s breathing stops and carries on ringing until the door is opened.Designers and psychologists have worked for years on colour. Blue is said to suggest trust, efficiency, duty, logic, coolness, thinking and calm. It also suggests coldness and unfriendliness. It is thought that strong blues will stimulate clear thought and lighter, soft colours will calm the mind and aid concentration.Yellow is linked with confidence, self-respect and friendliness. Get the colour wrong and it could cause fear, depression and anxiety, but the right yellow can lift spirits and self-respect.Ingrid Collins, a psychologist who specializes in the effects of colour, said that colour was an “energy force”. She said , “Blue does enhance communication but I am sure it would enhance truthful communication.”Yellow, she said, affected the mind. Red, on the other hand, should never be considered because it could increase aggression. Mrs Collins praised the designers for using colours in the cells. Gwent is notthe first British force to experiment with colour to calm down or persuade prisoners to cooperate. In the 1990s Strathclyde Police used pink in cells based on research carried out by the US Navy.40. The expression “tip the balance” in paragraph 1 probably indicates that the blue might . A. let suspects keep their balanceB. help suspects to confess their crimesC. make suspects cold and unfriendly in law courtD. enable suspects to change their attitudes to colours41. Which of the following colours should NOT be used in cells according to the passage? A. Pink. B. Yellow. C. Blue. D. Red.42. Which of the following helps alert officers if someone stops breathing? A. Scanning equipment. B. Royal blue lines. C. Glass doors. D. Yellow frames.43. The passage is mainly concerned with . A. the relationship between colours and psychologyB. a comparison of different functions of coloursC.psychologyD. scientific ways to help criminals reform themselves in prisonCIn 1901, H. G. Wells, an English writer, wrote a book describing a trip to the moon. When the explorers(探险者)landed on the moon, they discovered that the moon was full of underground cities. They expressed their surprise to the “moon people” they met. In turn, the “moon people” expressed their surprise. “Why”, they asked, “are you traveling to outer space w hen you don’t even use your inner space?”H. G. Wells could only imagine travel to the moon. In 1969, human beings really did land on the moon. People today know that there are no underground cities on the moon. However, the question that the “moon people” asked is still an interesting one. A growing number of scientists are seriously thinking about it.Underground systems are already in place. Many cities have underground car parks. In some cities, such as Tokyo, Seoul and Montreal, there are large underground shopping areas. The Chunnel, a tunnel(隧道）connecting England and France, is now complete.But what about underground cities? Japan’s Taisei Corporation is designing a network of underground systems, called “Alice Cities”. The designers imagine using surface space for public parks and using underground space for flats, offices, shopping, and so on. A solar dome(太阳能穹顶)would cover the whole city.Supporters of underground development say that building down rather than building up is a good way to use the earth’s space. The surface, they say, can be used for farms, parks, gardens,and agree. Would you?44.surprised to find that the “moon people” . A. knew so much about the earth B. understood their languageC. lived in so many underground citiesD. were ahead of them in space technology45. What does the underlined word “it” (Paragraph 2)refer to?A. Discovering the moon’s inner space.B. Using the earth’s inner space.C. Meeting the “moon people” again.D. Traveling to outer space.46. What sort of underground systems are already here with us?A. Offices, shopping areas, power stations.B. Tunnels, car parks, shopping areas.C. Gardens, car parks, power stations.D. Tunnels, gardens, offices.47. What would be the best title for the text? A. Alive cities —cities of the future B. Space travel with H. G. Wells C. Enjoy living underground D. Building down, not upDIn 1997,a group of twenty British women made history. Working in five teams with four women in each team, they walked to the North Pole. Apartfrom one experienced female guide, the other women were all ordinary people who had never done anything like this in their lives before. They managed to survive in an environment which had defeated several very experienced men during the same period.Once on the ice, each woman had to ski along while dragging a sledge(雪橇) weighing over 50 kilos. The Arctic ice is pushed up into huge piles of two or three meters high, and the sledges had to be pulled up one side and carefully let down the other all on rough surface so that they didn’t become damaged. The temperature was always below the freezing point and sometimes strong winds made walking while pulling so much weight almost impossible. It was also very difficult for them to put up their tents when they stopped each night.In such conditions, the women were making good progress if they covered fourteen or fifteen kilometers a day. However, part of the journey was across a frozen sea with moving water underneath the ice and at some points the team would drift(漂流) back more than five kilometers during the night. That meant that after walking in these very severe conditions for ten hours on one day, they had to spend part of the next day covering the same ground again.So, how did they manage to succeed? They realized that they were part of a team. If anyone of them didn’t pull her sledge or get her job done, she would endanger the success of the whole expedition. Any form of selfishness could result in the efforts of everyone else’s being completely wasted, so personal feelings had to be put to one side. At the end of their journey, the women agreed that it was mental effort far more than physical fitness that got them to the North Pole.48. The expedition was extraordinary because.A. there was no one to lead itB. the women did not have any men with themC. it was a new experience for most of the womenD. the women had not met one another before49. On the expedition, the women had to beparticularly careful to avoid.A. falling over on the iceB. being left behindC. damaging the sledgesD. getting too cold at night50. The women could not cover 15 kilometers a day mainly because.A. they got too tiredB. the ice was movingC. they kept getting lostD. the temperature was too low51. The passage seems to tell us that.A. motivation and teamwork achieve goalsB. women can do anything that they wantC.it is good to experience difficult conditionsD. the Arctic conditions are very severeEOver the last 70 years, researchers have been studying happy and unhappy people and finally found out ten factors that make a difference. Our feelings of well-being at any moment are determined to a certain degree by genes. However, of all the factors, wealth and age are the top two.Money can buy a degree of happiness. But once you can afford to feed, clothes and house yourself, each extra dollar makes less and less difference.Researchers find that, on average, wealthier people are happier. But the link between money and happiness is complex. In the past half-century, average income has sharply increased in developed countries, yet happiness levels have remained almost the same. Once your basic needs are met, money only seems to increase happiness if you have more than your friends, neighbors and colleagues.“Dollars buy status, and status makes people feel better,” conclude some experts, which helps explain why people who can seek status in other ways—scientists or actors, for example—may happily accept relatively poorly-paid jobs.In a research, Professor Alex Michalos found that the people whose desires—not just for money, but for friends, family, job, health—rose furthest beyond what they already had, tended to be less happy than those who felt a smaller gap(差距）.Indeed, the size of the gap predicted happiness about five times better than income alone. “The gap measures just blow away the only measures of income.” says Michalos.Another factor that has to do with happiness isage. Old age may not be so bad. “Given all the problems of aging, how could the elderly be more satisfied？” asks Professor Laura Carstensen.In one survey, Carstensen interviewed 184 people between the ages of 18 and 94, and asked them to fill out an emotions questionnaire. She found that old people reported positive emotions just as often as young people, but negative emotions much less often.Why are old people happier? Some scientists suggest older people may expect life to be harder and learn to live with it, or they’re more realistic about their goals, only setting ones that they know they can achieve. But Carstensen thinks that with time running out, older people have learned to focus on things that make them happy and let go of those that don’t.“People realize not only what they have, but also that what they have cannot last forever,” she says. “A goodbye kiss to a husband or wife at the age of 85, for example, may bring far more complex emotional responses than a similar kiss to a boy or girl friend at the age of 20.”52. According to the passage, the feeling of happiness.A. is determined partly by genesB. increases gradually with ageC. has little to do with wealthD. is measured by desires53. Some actors would like to accept poorly-paid jobs because the jobs.A. make them feel much betterB. provide chances to make friendsC. improve their social positionD. satisfy their professional interests54. Aged people are more likely to feel happy because they are more.A. optimisticB. successfulC. practicalD. emotional55. Professor Alex Michalos found that people feelless happy if.A. the gap between reality and desire is biggerB. they have a stronger desire for friendshipC. their income is below their expectationD. the hope for good health is greaterⅣ.短文改错（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）The Story about Growth is my favorite American TV play because it is very interested.
