Life in the future李仕才第一节阅读理解阅读下面的短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中选出最佳选项。

AEven as we breathe a sigh of relief watching the rescue of 33 miners trapped in a Chilean mine for more than two months, there is recognition that their recovery from this traumatic experience involves more than just their physical health. Surrivors of disasters are at significant risk for such problems as depression and anxiety.In an upcoming report,George A.Bonanno and colleagues note that disasters result in extreme psychological harm in a minority of individuals—less than 30% of samples experience severe levels of these psychological problems. Just as there are a wide range of problems experienced following disasters, Bonanno and his coauthors observe there are also a number of outcome patterns.Some survivors will exhibit chronic dysfunction (慢性功能障碍) but the majority will go on to recover psychological function within a few months or years.Following disasters, the most common form of immediate psychological intervention(介入) is Critical Incident Stress Debriefing (CISD) (危机事件应激晤谈).However, following a review of studies on the effectiveness of CISD, Bonanno and co authors conclude, “Multiple studies h ave shown that CISD is not only ineffective but,as suggested earlier,in some cases can actually be psychologically harmful.“The data on crisis debriefing suggest that imposing such interventions on individuals doesn't work,”Lilienfeld says.“If some of the miners want to talk to somebody to express their feelings, then by all means mental health professionals should be there to listen to them and support them.But for miners who would prefernot to talk much about the experience, it's best to leave them alone and respect their own coping mechanisms (应对机制).”According to Bonanno and his coauthors,there are treatments that may be effective in helping survivors recover from disasters.Psychological first aid (PFA) ——which,among other things,provides practical help and helps develop a sense of safety and calmness among survivors——is a promising approach.For example,the communitycentered intervention—which helps maintain a sense of connectedness and quality of community life——is beneficial to survivors of disasters.1.Which of the following can replace the underlined word“traumatic”in the first paragraph?A.Amusing B.UpsettingC.Impressive D.Memorable2.What can be inferred from Lilienfeld's words?A.The choices of interventions should follow the survivors' will.B.The survivors should often ask health professionals for advice.C.It's beneficial for the survivors to communicate with each other.D.The miners should be respected for their hard and dangerous work.3.According to the passage,which of the following methods is generally more effective?A.Help survivors fit in their communities.B.Urge survivors to join in volunteer programs.C.Ask survivors to speak out their experiences.D.Leave survivors alone to improve their emotions.4.What is the passage mainly about?A.The types of psychological problems.B.The harmful effects of mine accidents.C.The new research about the mental activity.D.The psychological help for survivors of disasters.语篇解读:绝大多数灾难幸存者都会产生一定的心理问题,因此对他们进行心理疏导是极其重要的。

It’s an annual argument. Do we or do we not go on holiday? My wife says no because we have no savings to save us. I say you only live once and we work hard and what’s the point if you can’t go on holiday. The joy of a recession (不景气) means no argument next year —we just won’t go.Since money is known to be one of the things most likely to bring a relationship to its knees, we should be grateful. For many families the recession means more than not booking a holiday. A YouGov survey of 2,000 people found 22% said they were arguing more with their partners because of concerns about money. A recent research shows arguments about money were especially damaging to couples.Kim Stephenson, an occupational psychologist, believes money may be different things to men and women. "People can say the same things about money but have different ideas of what it’s for, " he explains. "They’ll say it’s to save, to spend, for security, for freedom, to show someone you love them." He says men are more likely to see money as a way of buyin g status and of showing their parents that they’ve achieved something."The biggest problem is that couples assume each other know what’s going on with their finances, but they don’t. There seems to be more of a taboo (禁忌) about talking about money than about death. But you both need to know what you’re doing, who’s paying what into the joint account and how much you keep separately. In a healthy relationship, you don’t have to agree about money, but you have to talk about it."1. What does the author say about going on holiday in Paragraph 1?A. It will cost them too much money.B. Few people can afford it without working hard.C. It makes all the hard work worthwhile.D. It is the chief cause of family quarrels.2. According to the text, what does Kim Stephenson believe?A. Money is often a symbol of a person’s status.B. Money means a great deal to both men and women.C. Men and women spend money on different things.D. Men and women view money in different ways.3. The author suggests that couples should________.A. put their money together instead of keeping it separatelyB. discuss money matters to maintain a healthy relationshipC. make efforts to reach agreement on their family budgetsD. avoid arguing about money matters to remain romantic【文章大意】文章通过度假的问题引入话题,男人和女人对钱的看法是不一样的,夫妻应该就钱的问题多进行讨论,这样可以建立健康的关系。

If you have a chance to go to Finland,you will probably be surprised to find how “foolish” the Finnish people are.Take the taxi drivers for example.Taxis in Finland are mostly high­class Benz with a fare of two US dollars a kilometer.You can go anywhere in one,tell the driver to drop you at any place,say that you have some business to attend to,and then walk off without paying your fare.The driver would not show the least signs of anxiety.The dining rooms in all big hotels not only serve their guests,but also serve outside diners.Hotel guests have their meals free,so they naturally go to the free dining rooms to have their meals.The most they would do to show their good faith is to wave their registration cards to the waiter.With such a loose check,you can easily use any old registration card to take a couple of friends to dine free of charge.The Finnish workers are paid by the hour.They are very much on their own as soon as they have agreed with the boss at the rate.From then on they just say how many hours they have worked and they will be paid accordingly.With so many loopholes(漏洞) in everyday life, surely Finland must be a heaven to those who love to take “petty_advantages”.But the strange thing is that all the taxi passengers would always come back to pay their fares after they have attended to their business and that not a single outsider has ever been found in the free hotel dining rooms.And workers always give an honest account of the exact hours they put in.As the Finns always act on good faith in everything they do,living in such a society has turned everyone into a real “gentleman”.1.The underlined words in Paragraph 5 means to “________”.A.be ready to help othersB.make good use of one's friendsC.be a little ahead of othersD.gain something at other's expense2.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A.While taking a taxi in Finland,you can get off without first paying your fare.B.In a big hotel in Finland, you can enjoy free meals if you're living in the hotel.C.The bosses in Finland pay the employees according to the registration of theirworking hours.D.The workers are always honest with their working hours.3.We can learn from the passage that ________.A.the Finnish society is of very high moral(道德的)levelB.there are many loopholes in everyday life in FinlandC.in Finland,most taxi drivers will not charge you anythingD.everyone in Finland is like a gentleman,for they have faith in themselves 4.Which of the following is the best title of the passage?A.Life in FinlandB.A Society with “Foolish” PeopleC.What a LifeD.Honest accounts of the Finns【解题导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文,主要通过一些例子,介绍了芬兰人的诚实,并且诚实让他们成为真正的“绅士”。

One of the main challenges facing many countries is how to maintain their identity in the face of globalization and the growing multi-language trend. "One of the main reasons for economic failure in many African countries is the fact that, with a few important exceptions, mother-tongue education is not practiced in any of the independent African states." said Neville Alexander, Director of the Project for the Study of Alternative Education in South Africa at the University of Cape Town.In response to the spread of English and the increased multi-language trends arising from immigration, many countries have introduced language laws in the last decade. In some, the use of languages other than the national language is banned in public spaces such as advertising posters. One of the first such legal provisions(规定) was the 1994 "Toubon law" in France, and the idea has been copied in many countries since then. Such efforts to govern language use are often considered as futile by language experts, who are well aware of the difficulty in controlling fashions in speech and know from research that language switching among bilinguals is a natural process.It is especially difficult for native speakers of English to understand the desire to maintain the "purity" of a language by law. Since the time of Shakespeare, English has continually absorbed foreign words into its own language. English is one of the most mixed and rapidly changing languages in the world, but that has not been a barrier to acquiring superiority and power. Another reason for the failure of many native English speakers to understand the role of the state regulation is that it has never been the Anglo-Saxon way of doing things. English has never had a state-controlled authority for the language, similar, for example, to the Academic Francaise in France. The need to protect national languages is, for most western Europeans, a recent phenomenon- especially the need to ensure that English does not unnecessarily take over too many fields. Public communication, education and new ways of communication promoted by technology, may be key fields to defend.1.Neville Alexander believes that __________.A. mother-tongue education is not practiced in all African countriesB. globalization has resulted in the economic failure of AfricaC. globalization has led to the rise of multi-language trendD. lack of mother-tongue education can lead to economic failure2.The underlined word "futile" (in paragraph 2) most probably means "_________".A. workableB. practicalC. uselessD. unnecessary3.What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. English has taken over fields like public communication and education.B. Many aspects of national culture are threatened by the spread of English.C. Most language experts believe it is important to promote a national language.D. Europeans have long realized the need to protect a national language.4.The best title for the passage is __________.A. Fighting against the rule of EnglishB. Protecting local languages and identitiesC. Globalization and multi-language trendD. To maintain the purity of language by law【文章大意】现在世界全球化导致很多国家的独特的文化收到了冲击和影响,本文讲述的正是这方面的话题。

It is high time we __9__ (take) effective measures to remove the burden upon them.Please give students __10__ (little) homework and leave them more free time.Ⅰ.阅读理解AMy dearest son and daughter,The story of New Jersey high school student Rachel Canning suing her parents for child support and high school education inspired me to write you a little letter.Let me just put this out there:the only way I expect to see you in a court is as a lawyer or a judge.There are two things about this case that seem to be disaster.First,it’s natural for parents and children to argue.I can guarantee that we will disagree.One or both of you will,at some point,scream at the top of your voice the various ways you hate me.And I won’t always like you,either.But I will always love you and do everything I can to keep your best interests as my focus,even when I’m so angry.We are family.That means we are asmuch a part of one another as the flesh,blood and bones in our body.And we all should think about it very deeply instead of breaking that bond.Second,to be honest,no matter how far apart we are on your life choices,your father and I will most certainly pay everything we can for your higher education.But that doesn’t mean you deserve it.To be clear,that is a privilege we happily extend(给予) to you—not a right you are born with.And you will have to work hard to earn that privilege.Growing up is hard work.If I do my job properly as your mother—and you do yours as my children—you would sooner get a job or two,and find a way to make your dreams come true rather than go to trial over what you think you are entitled to.Love always,Mom1.The mother writes this letter because she wants her children to.A.be prepared for educationB.learn a lesson from the caseC.take up the legal professionD.remember Rachel Canning2.When in disagreement,the mother expects her children not to.A.guarantee anythingB.scream out their angerC.break the family bondD.forget their best interests3.The mother thinks of parents’ paying for their children’s higher education as .A.a way in which children realize their dreamsB.a test of whether parents love their childrenC.a privilege that children should earnD.a right that parents are born withBSusan Brownell Anthony was a lady ahead of her time.She fought for women’s rights long before it became a popular issue.Susan was born on February 15,1820,in Adams,Massachusetts.At that time,women had few rights.They could not own property.Money earned by a married woman belonged to her husband.Major decisions regarding children were made by the fathers.Women could not vote.At the age of 15,Susan became a schoolteacher.She taught for 15 years.Then she began organizing women’s groups to promote causes that were important to women.She helped gain better educational rights for women.She helped give married women possession of their earnings.After the Civil War,Susan became very involved in the Wom en’s Suffrage Movement.After years of lecturing,writing,and appealing by Susan and other women,some parts of the United States changed their laws to give women the right to vote.The first state was Wyoming in 1869.Other areas and states gradually followed Wyoming’s decision.It was not until 1920 that the U.S.Constitution was changed to give all women voting rights.Susan Brownell Anthony died in 1906 at the age of 86.She was elected to the Hall of Fame for Great Americans in 1950.She was the first American woman to have a li keness(肖像) of her face on a coin.It was the 1979 Susan Brownell Anthony dollar.4.What was the situation of American women like when Susan was born?A.They had low social status.B.They could vote after getting married.C.They managed money for their husbands.D.They were responsible for decision-making.5.What is the third paragraph mainly about?A.Susan’s teaching experiences.B.Susan’s educational background.C.Susan’s efforts to abolish slavery.D.Susan’s fighting for women’s causes.6.What does the word “decision”in the fourth paragraph refer to?A.Promoting the social movement.B.Changing the U.S.Constitution.C.Giving women voting rights.D.Uniting other areas and states.7.What may be the best title for the text?A.The first American woman to invent coinsB.The problem of women’s rights in the U.S.C.The most popular women organizationsD.A pioneer in fighting for women’s rightsⅡ.阅读七选五How to run international meetingsAs more of us do business across cultures,it’s best to prepare ahead of time before heading to the meeting table.Here are four rules for different countries.Stick to the schedule.Where:Germany, Austria, JapanWe’ve all been to meetings that have a loose agenda,if any at all.They don’t start on time and they seem to repeat.1Japanese are more likely to create a detailed agenda and pass out supporting documents several days before a meeting.2Meetings that run long in Germany are often taken to mean that the parties are not communicating efficiently.3Where:China,Malaysia, SingaporeDebating a topic can go against the traditional Chinese concept of “saving face”,which means avoiding any mistakes or actions that could bring ughing at even an obviously amusing answer or pointing out a potential mistake can spoil the entire meeting.Enjoy the interruptions.Where:Italy,France,SpainWhen Pascal Soboll meets with clients in Italy or Spain,he’s no longer offended if they leave early or arrive late.Rather than attend the entire three-hour meeting,he has learned that his colleagues there—and in some parts of France—attend based on their own timetable.4Rather than expect people to sit through his entire presentation,he makes it easier for them to turn up as needed.Please,no small talk.Where:Finland,SwedenIn places like Finland and Sweden,where non-meeting related discussions like chat about the weather can be regarded as a way to be off a formally-set agenda and as a waste of other people’s time.In some countries,including Finland,there are long pauses in the conversation.5These breaks are used as a way to process what the other person is saying without interrupting.A.Not so in these countries.B.Germans and Austrians are similar.C.Don’t even think about a brainstorm.D.There’s often no way to tell how things are going.E.Don’t try to fill them,though,with small talk or anything else.F.What do the long silences,idle chit-chat and serious faces really mean in context?G.For Soboll,that means changing his own German-based expectations of client behaviour.Ⅲ.语法填空Can knots (结) be a form of art? It is in China.They have a long history and a1.__________(culture) meaning even today.A Chinese knot is 2. is woven (编) from a single length of rope to be a variety of shapes.Each shape has 3.(it) own meaning,and Chinese knots are usually woven in the red color,which indicates good fortune.Originally,people may have made them 4. (record)information and convey messages before they started to write.It is known that they 5.

(fasten) traditional clothes instead of buttons. And silk is most 10. (wide) used to make these clothing knots.【『答案』『解析』】Ⅰ.语法填空语篇解读:现在,许多高中生除了三餐外都在抓紧时间学习;然而太多的作业让他们失去了学习兴趣,甚至危害到他们的健康。

She is here to tell us about her time in Kansas in the city of Manhattan.What were the best things about it?Manhattan has a great university feel to it. I loved going to the football games. We would spend the whole day tailgating (开车尾派对) outside the stadium, drinking beer and having a big barbecue.What do you think of the people there?People from Kansas are so friendly. However, I'd say that many Kansans are very sheltered and don't pay much attention to life outside the US. But as the grandma of my Kansan friend might say, “We're still sweet as pie.”What were the worst things about being there?It's very difficult to get around Kansas without a car. Everything's so spread out and there isn't really a public transportation system.What was the funniest thing that happened while you were there?I remember one trip I took with my friend to her grandparents'house. They had horses and asked me if I wanted to go for a ride. I had never ridden a horse before but I decided to have a try. I hopped (跳上) on and everything was fine for a minute. But then the horse went crazy. It started bucking (猛然弯背跃起) and making these crazy noises. I thought I was going to die. My friend eventually calmed the horse down but not before I had destroyed an entire section of the fence. I thought they would be mad but they were just in shock — they couldn't believe I had stayed on the horse for that long.Did you have any other problems?I'm Swedish, but my English is pretty good because my dad's English. But it took a little while to get used to the accent. The people from the cities don't have a strong accent, but the people from the country are hard to understand sometimes. You also have to be careful with the weather. In the winter it was absolutely freezing, and during the summer it was so hot I thought I might die. Of course, they have heating and air conditioning everywhere.语篇解读:本文是一则访谈。

Tea,the most typical English drink,became established in Britain because of the influence of a foreign princess,Catherine of Braganza,the queen of Charles Ⅱ.As a lover of tea since her chil dhood in Portugal,she brought tea­drinking to the English royal court and set a trend for the_beverage in the 17th century.The fashion soon spread beyond the circle of the nobility to the middle classes,and tea became a popular drink at the London coffee houses where people met to do business and discuss events of the day.Many employers served a cup of tea to their workers in the middle of the morning,thus inventing a lasting British institution,the“tea break”.However,drinking tea in social settings outside the workplace was beyond the means of the majority of British people.It came with a high price tag and tea was taxed as well.Around 1800,the seventh Duchess of Bedford,Anna Maria Russell,began the popular practice of“afternoon tea”,a ceremony taking place at about four o'clock.Until then,people did not usually eat or drink anything between lunch and dinner.At approximately the same time,the Earl of Sandwich popularized a new way of eating bread—in thin slices,with something like jam or cucumbers between them.Before long,a small meal at the end of the afternoon,involving tea and sandwiches, became part of the British way of life.As tea became much cheaper during the 19th century,its popularity spread right through all corners of the British society.Thus,tea became Britain's favorite drink.In working­class households,it was served with the main meal of the day,eaten when workers returned home after a day's labor.This meal has become known as“high tea”.Today,tea can be drunk at any time of the day,and accounts for over two­fifths of all drinks consumed in Britain—with the exception of water.1.What is mainly discussed about tea in the text?A.Its development in Britain.B.Its traditional ways of drinking.C.Its influence around the world.D.Its popularity in Europe.2.What do the underlined words“the beverage”probably refer to?A.Tea drinking.B.A small meal.C.A way of eating bread.D.A choice of drinks.3.Why was tea unable to be accepted as a common drink in Britain in the 17th century?A.It was merely served in London.B.It was taxed as an alcoholic drink.C.It was forbidden in business settings.D.It was too expensive for most people.4.How is the text organized?A.By cause and effect.B.By comparison.C.In time order.D.In frequency order.【解题导语】本文介绍了茶在英国的发展历史及其受欢迎的原因。

Plastic-Eating WormsHumans produce more than 300 million tons of plastic every year. Almost half of that winds up in landfills(垃圾填埋场), and up to 12 million tons pollute the oceans. So far there is no effective way to get rid of it, but a new study suggests an answer may lie in the stomachs of some hungry worms.Researchers in Spain and England recently found that the worms of the greater wax moth can break down polyethylene, which accounts for 40% of plastics. The team left 100 wax worms on a commercial polyethylene shopping bag for 12 hours, and the worms consumed and broke down about 92 milligrams, or almost 3% of it. To confirm that the worms’ chewing alone was not responsible for the poly ethylene breakdown, the researchers made some worms into paste(糊状物) and applied it to plastic films.14 hours later the films had lost 13% of their mass — apparently broken down by enzymes (酶) from the worms’ stomachs. Their findings were published in Current Biology in 2019.Federica Bertocchini, co-author of the study, says the worms’ ability to break down their everyday food — beeswax — also allows them to break down plastic. "Wax is a complex mixture, but the basic bond in polyethylene, the carbon-carbon bond, is there as well, "she explains, "The wax worm evolved a method or system to break this bond. "Jennifer DeBruyn, a microbiologist at the University of Tennessee, who was not involved in the study, says it is not surprising that such worms can break down polyethylene. But compared with previous studies, she finds the speed of breaking down in this one exciting. The next step, DeBruyn says, will be to identify the causeof the breakdown. Is it an enzyme produced by the worm itself or by its gut microbes(肠道微生物)?Bertocchini agrees and hopes her team’s findings might one day help employ the enzyme to break down plastics in landfills. But she expects using the chemical in some kind of industrial process — not simply "millions of worms thrown on top of the plastic. "1. What can we learn about the worms in the study?A. They take plastics as their everyday food.B. They are newly evolved creatures.C. They can consume plastics.D. They wind up in landfills.2. According to Jennifer DeBruyn, the next step of the study is to .A. identify other means of the breakdownB. find out the source of the enzymeC. confirm the research findingsD. increase the breakdown speed3. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that the chemical might .A. help to raise wormsB. help make plastic bagsC. be used to clean the oceansD. be produced in factories in future4. What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To explain a study method on worms.B. To introduce the diet of a special worm.C. To present a way to break down plastics.D. To propose new means to keep eco-balance.【文章大意】本文为说明文。

You might make a disgusted face when you notice that the person waiting in their car at the red light next to you is picking their nose,but admit it,you do it too。

And while it might be the natural option when there isn't a box of tissues around,it can be bad for you.The main reasons why people feel the need to pick their nose are to clear it of dried liquid,stop an itch(痒),or just because it feels good.Boogers(鼻屎)form when dried liquid and cilium,the tiny hairs that line the nostrils(鼻孔),trap the dust,dirt,and other things。

单元检测(十九)Life in the FutureⅠ.阅读理解ALindha was a student at Kansas State University. She is here to tell us about her time in Kansas in the city of Manhattan.What were the best things about it?Manhattan has a great university feel to it. I loved going to the football games.

BQuicker and faster 3-D printers have allowed not just amazing objects to be created, but have started to affect how doctors treat patients.We've put together a list of some of the most amazing medical breakthroughs made possible with 3-D printing.Life-Saving AirwayIn 2013, doctors created a new airway for Kaiba Gionfriddo, a boy born with an airway that kept collapsing (萎陷). To save his life doctors printed tiny tubes to join together in different shapes and sizes until one finally worked for Kaiba. It was placed in Kaiba's bronchus (支气管) so that it no longer collapsed. Even more remarkably, once the plant was placed it could stay there. It's designed to eventually be absorbed into the body.New “Bionic” HandsOne of the most remarkable ways 3-D printing is now being used is as a way to create prosthetics (假肢).A boy born without an arm named Alex was able to get a new “bionic” hand thanks to it. Last year a college student spent 8 weeks coming up with a special prosthetic design that only cost a few hundred dollars in materials. He said he wanted to create a prosthetic far cheaper than other choices that can run tens of thousands of dollars.。
