Unit 4 PygmalionⅠ.阅读理解A体裁：记叙文话题：人物与事件词数：288 时间：5′Eight years ago，I was a busy housewife.My life always revolved (旋转) around my children and husband.I felt my brain was stuck.One day my friend Judy called and told me that she was going to join an oil painting class on Friday evenings.She asked me to join the class together with her.I was hesitant to join her because I had never painted before.Judy encouraged me to join for fun.I finally accepted her invitation.The first day in the class，we met our teacher，Mr.Chiou，who just came back from France.He showed us a lot of pictures of paintings of famous artists all around the world and told us some stories about art history.He said everyone is an artist.Everyone can draw or paint.Art is a silent language which can express human feelings.We started to paint the things we liked or hated.We also painted the most beautiful and ugly thing in our minds.When I'm painting，I forget everything that I worry about.Sometimes I even forget the time.Mr.Chiou not only opened the door of art for me but also gave me a way to broaden my life.I started to borrow art books from the library and visit museums in my free time.I'm not really good at painting，but I certainly enjoy it.Every painting represents the artist's personality and feeling.For example，when I imitated(模仿) Vincent Van Gogh's painting，I can sense the passion and the energy from his painting.I think this is why，after I started to paint，I felt like my dried－out brain began receiving a new source of refreshing water.【语篇解读】作者通过自己8年前开始学习画画的感受说明了一个问题：发展自己的一项兴趣和爱好能使自己的精神得到恢复，也能使自己学到很多这种兴趣和爱好以外的有价值的东西。

Do you wish you could invent something new? Here we look at a few British inventions of recent times.Adaptive glassesDo you wear glasses? If so，can you imagine life without them? In 1985，Joshua Silver，a professor at Oxford University，asked himself，“Can I invent a pair of glasses that could be changed by the wearer？” He designed two plastic lenses(透镜) that are filled with a special ing syringes(注射器) you change the liquid between the lenses until you can see clearly.The glasses are not beautiful but they are easy to use and cheap to make.The windup radioWhen you switch your TV on tonight，think about all those people without electricity.Thinking about this，Trevor Baylis came up with the idea of designing a radio that could be powered by hand.In common with Joshua Silver he wanted his invention to be cheap and easy to use.He wanted even the poorest people in developing countries，who don't have electricity and cannot afford batteries，to use it.The radio has a generator(发电机) which is powered by turning a handle.In 1996 it won the BBC Design Award for Best Product and Best Design.The Dyson vacuum(真空) cleanerIn many homes around the world you can see a cleaner that looks like a spaceship.This is the Dyson vacuum cleaner which uses something called “cyclonic，separation” to separate the dirt.You do not need a b ag for your cleaner and it does not get blocked so it is very practical.The idea came to Sir James Dyson after he kept having problems with his vacuum cleaner.He decided he could design a better one and in 1993 he opened his own factory.The Dyson is now one of the bestselling cleaners in the UK and Dyson is believed to have earned over a billion pounds.The Zapata FlyboardHave you ever dreamed of zooming through the water and leaping in the air like a dolphin? Now you can thanks to a flyboard，built by water sports enthusiast Frank Zapata.With it you can dive back in the water and out again.It's possible to jump to incredible heights out of the water—over 30 feet.The basic flyboard model comes in at ￡4，200.So keep dreaming and inventing.One day you might get it right.11．Which might be the best title for the passage?A．Greatest InventionsB．Scientists' StoriesC．Magic GlassesD．Beautiful Minds12．What can we learn about adaptive glasses?A．They are very expensive.B．The inventor is a student.C．The glasses are fragile.D．They don't look very nice.13．Which invention won an award?A．Adaptive glasses.B．The windup radio.C．The Dyson vacuum cleaner.D．The Zapata Flyboard.14．The Dyson vacuum cleaner was invented with the purpose of ________．A．helping people use cleaners more easilyB．making Dyson a rich businessmanC．keeping the house cleaner than beforeD．taking the place of human cleanersBCommuters(上下班往返的人) who drive to work will face a parking charge of up to￡350 a year.Ministers are backing a workplace parking charge which will come into force in Nottingham in 2013 and is likely to be adopted across the country.The scheme will see firms with more than ten parking places for staff charged ￡ 350 a year for each space in two years.Employers would be free to pass on the charge to their staff－meaning it would effectively be a tax on driving to work.The scheme aims to reduce traffic by preventing unnecessary car journeys and raise funds to improve public transport，but critics say it is just an excuse for councils to fill their coffers(金库)．Some ten million Britons drive to work each day，and the British Chambers of Commerce says the new charge could total ￡ 3.4 billion a year if rolled out nationwide.Already some firms in Nottingham have threatened to leave the city，where 40，000 commuters use their cars to get to work.A spokesman said the scheme was nothing more than a tax on jobs.“It is very unfair to discriminate against those employers who have parking spaces，which get vehicles off the streets，” he said.“And these charges apply around the clock，which is especially unfair on shift workers who rely on their cars because public transport is not available.This is more about increasing the government's income than reducin g traffic.”However，Transport Minister Sadiq Khan gave the plan an official approval during a visit to Nottingham.The council says the tax will raise as much as ￡100 million over ten years—one fifth of the cost of a new transport system for the city.Another transport spokesman Theresa Villiers said the tax would have a devastating impact on businesses struggling to cope with the economic decline.But Richard Hebditch of the Campaign for Better Transport said the tax would raise money to invest in better transport.“We put forw ard the idea of workplace parking taxes as a fairer way to raise money to invest in the future local transport services.We are pleased that the people of Nottingham will be the first to benefit.”15．Supporters argue that the scheme ________．A．can help improve the parking conditions for the staffB．should be applied to all commuters driving to workC．is certain to be carried out despite the objectionsD．will relieve traffic pressure and improve public transport16．According to the objectors，the scheme is unfair for ________．A．the firms with parking lotsB．the workforce without carsC．the employees parking their cars on the streetsD．the staff driving to work in the daytime17．Which word can best describe Theresa Villiers's attitude towards the scheme?A．Neutral.

They are brothers.The result: the Boston Celtics won the 2008 NBA championship and are considered the favorites to win the Eastern Conference championship again this year.

These may show strengths that you can use in your work. A boy who is good at mathematics can use that in an engineering career. A girl who spells well and likes English may be good at office work .So it is important to know the subjects you do well in at school. On the other hand, you may not have any specially strong or weak subjects but your records show a general satisfactory standard. Although not all subjects can be used directly in a job, they may have indirect value. Knowledge of history is not required for most jobs but if history is one of your good subjects you will have learned to remember facts and details. This is an ability that canIf you have had a part-time job on Saturdays or in the summer, think what you gained from it. If nothing else, you may have learned to get to work on time, to followinstructions and to get on with older workers. You may have learned to give correct change in a shop, for example. Just as important, you may become interested in a particular industry or career you see from the inside in a part-Facing your weak points is also part of knowing yourself. You may be all thumbs when you handle tools; perhaps you are a poor speller or cannot add up a column of figures. It is bitter to face any weaknesses than to pretend they do not exist. Your school record, for instance, may not be too good, yet it is an important part of your background. You should not be apologetic about it but instead recognize that you will have a chance66．Which of the following best sums up the first paragraph?A．Using school performance to help to choose a career.B．The importance of doing well at school.C．The importance of being good at all subjects.D．The indirect value of school work.67．The writer thinks that for a student to have a part-time job is probably .A．B．a good way to find out his weak pointsC．D．68．According to the passage, if a students school record is not good, he ______.A．B．C．will not be able to find a suitable jobD．will regret not having worked harder at school69．Which subject is supposed to have no direct vaA．Mathematics. B．English. C．Technical Drawing. D．70．A．finding ones strong and weak pointsB．C．choosing a career according to whatD．Part IV Writing (45 marks)Section A (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage.Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.Scientists, doctors and mental health professionals have been studying the connection between color and mood for years. Many now believe that colors can not only cause emotional reactions, but can also correct mood. Colors behave in three basicways: active, passive and neutral (中和的).Active colors are warm colors, includingyellow, orange and red. These colors bring confidence. Warm colors can also bring cheerful attitudes. Yellows and golden colors work well in offices, kitchens and study areas. Reds heat up a room. Passive colors or cool colors make people calm, quiet and satisfied. Bedrooms, private areas and bathrooms are great places for blues and greens. Beige, gray and white are thought of as neutral colors.They help to put the focus on other colors or serve to tone down (使柔和) colorsthat might otherwise be overpowering on their own. You can easily change the look or feel of a room by making good use of different colors. Mixing and matching colors is an excellent way to balance color and emotion, and provide a welcoming feel for guests. To create a feeling of warmth and comfort in a room, use bright, warm colors like yellow, orange and red. These colors are good choices for rooms that appear cool due to limited sunlight. Yellow adds cheerfulness to dull rooms. You can add yellows to rooms which are not closely related to happy thoughts, such as kitchens and laundry room. In rooms where there’s plenty of sunshine, cool colors can provide a calming environment. Sage greens and sky blues are perfect for bedrooms, playrooms and activity areas.Neutral colors, such as pale gray, white and beige, send a peaceful message to your brain. It’s not a coincidence that most doctor’s offices, coffee shops and mental health centers are decorated in neutrals. To make your wall color choices better, pick out furniture that will provide a visual contrast. Cool colors make a room seem larger than itis and warm colors make rooms feel smaller.Title: The Connection Between 71.____________Section B (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage.Planting trees around poultry farms （禽类农场）can improve air and water quality –and relations with neighbors. Research has shown that just three rows of trees near poultry houses can reduce the release of dust and ammonia (氨). They can also reduce the strong odor(气味) of ammonia gas.The trees take dust, ammonia and odors in their leaves. They also provide shade from the sun, so they reduce cooling costs in summer. And they act as a windbreak, so they reduce heating costs in winter. Trees can also improve water quality around farms by removing pollutions from soil and groundwater.Several years ago, people were objecting to the odor of poultry farms on the Delmarva Peninsula in the eastern United States. Delmarva is where the states of Delaware, Maryland and Virginia come together. Two thousand farms there can eachhouse and average of seventy – five thousand chickens.Traditionally the farms used windows to provide fresh air in the chicken houses. Farmers rarely planted trees or tall crops around the buildings, so there would be no barrier to the airflow.But then farms began to use new ventilation(通风) systems. Instead of windows,the new systems used tunnel fans to circulate air. The fans directed airflow from the poultry houses toward the homes of neighbors.Researchers began dealing with the problem in 2000. They found that over a period of six years, planting three rows of trees reduced total dust and ammonia by more than half. And they found that smells were reduced by 18%.Farmers may think trees will take too long to grow and be effective. But some trees can grow quickly. At least one –third of the Delmarva farms have planted trees,technically known as vegetative environmental buffers(环境缓冲器). The idea offers away to cut pollution, save money and energy, and make the neighbors happy.81．How does the new ventilation system work? (No more than 7 words)82．What are the benefits planting trees can bring about? (No more than 11 words)83．What is the maximum capacity（容量）of poultry farms in Delmarva? (No more than 2 words)84．What is the best title of the passage?

informed me they only accepted cash.I was $7.00 short，which meant I had to carry the books back home.It would be an exhausting (令人筋疲力尽的) twohour journey back home with all those books.An elderly gentleman nearby noticed my problem.He asked how much cash I needed.When I told him I was $7 short，he quickly took out the money from his wallet.“You don’t have to pay me back，”he said.I was speechless；I didn’t know whether to take the money or come back with the books the next day.A young student who was work ing there noticed my hesitation.“He’s really nice，”said the student.“I was starving this morning and he bought breakfast for me.He always helps people in different ways.”The next day，I went to him and thanked him for trusting me and lending me the money.H e said he forgot about it and didn’t expect I would give it back.“I’m very happy，”he said，“not because I’m getting my money back，but because this is the right way to go—whatever you get from this world，give it back as much as you possibly can.Spread kindne ss around the world with the smallest things you can do.”Later，I found out he wasn’t involved with any charity organizations.He has been performing these types of acts for years.Earlier，someone had done something incredibly kind for him and he has been spreading the kindness ever since.He taught me a very important lesson in life—we come to this world with nothing and we will leave with nothing.Whatever we own，it will become somebody else’s and whatever we leave，it will become somebody else’s.36．Why did the writer need a locker in the school?A．To store his large quantity of books.B．To help him get away from the sudden rain.C．To carry it back home with his books inside.D．To make it easier for him to go on a trip.37．When the old gentleman offered the
