教材练习答案及听力原文Unit 1WARMING UPAnswers:1 Archimedes, Ancient Greek (287-212 BC) He was a mathematician. He found that if you put an object into water the water pushes the object up. It rises and partly floats. The force of the water pushing it up is the same as the weight of the object.2 Charles Darwin, British (1808-1882) The Origin of Species was published in 1859. It explained how plants and animals had changed over time to fit in with a changing environment. At the time it was published it was very controversial. Many people believed the Bible when it said that God made the first two people (Adam and Eve) and that all other people came from these two. Darwin’s book showed that people had developed from apes instead. So this caused a lot of argument between religious and scientific people. However Darwin’s idea became very influential and is still accepted today.3 Thomas Newcomen, British (1663-1729) He improved the first steam pump built by Thomas Savery in 1698 and turned it into a steam engine for taking water out of mines in 1712. James Watt improved it still further in the 1770s turning it into the first modern steam engine used on the railways.4 Gregor Mendel, Czech (1822-1884) He grew pea plants and developed ideas on heredity and inherited characteristics. He concentrated on cross-fertilising pea plants and analyzing the results. Between 1856-1863 he grew 28,000 pea plants. He examined seven kinds of seed and plant characteristics and developed some laws of inheritance. The first is that inheritance factors do not combine but are passed to the next generation intact. Second, he found that each partner gives half the inherited factors to the young. Third, some of these factors show up in the offspring (and so are dominant). The other factors are masked by the dominant ones (and so are recessive).5 Marie Curie, Polish and French (1867-1934) She was born in Poland and came to study in France in 1891 and she lived there for the rest of her life. In 1898 she discovered radium. She received two Nobel prizes, one (with Pierre Curie) for physics (1903) and one for chemistry (1911). She is the only person to have been so honoured. On the death of her husband she took over his job at the Sorbonne in Paris. Her work on radioactivity and the discovery of radium meant that she began a new scientific area of research. She was the first woman to receive a Nobel Prize and the first woman to teach at the Sorbonne.6 Thomas Edison, American (1847-1931) He was already an inventor of other electrical devices (phonograph, electric light bulb) when in 1882 he designed a system for providing New York with electricity from a central power station. This was a tremendous achievement, which hadpreviously been thought impossible.7 Leonardo da Vinci, Italian (1452-1519) He was a famous artist whose skill for showing human skin tones made his paintings seem to come alive. He used to study dead people in order to make his paintings as accurate as possibile. Some of his famous paintings include “The Adoration of the Magi” and the “The Last Supper”. Later in his life he lived in France where he designed a submarine and a flying machine.8 Sir Humphry Davy, British (1778-1829) He did research into different gases and discovered the medicinal value of nitrous oxide (or laughing gas) as an anaesthetic. In 1815 he developed a safety lamp for miners. Previously there had been many accidents when candles on the miners’ helmets had exploded when it came into contact with underground gas from the coal the miners were digging. The safety helmet made working underground very much safer.9 Zhang Heng, Chinese (78-139) He invented the first seismograph to indicate in the direction of an earthquake. It was in the shape of a cylinder with eight dragon heads round the top, each with a ball in its mouth. Around the bottom were eight frogs directly under a dragon’s head. When an earthquake occurred, a ball fell out of the dragon’s mouth, making a noise.10 Stephen Hawking, British (1942-) He has worked in astronomy and studied black holes in space. He has shown that black holes do not only absorb everything around them but, from time to time, throw out matter as well. This may mark the beginning of new galaxies. This is an advance on the old theory which said that black holes “eat” everything they come across. COMPREHENDINGAnswer key for Exercise 1:1 An outbreak of cholera hit London in 1854.2 John Snow began to test two theories.3 John Snow investigated two streets where the outbreak was very severe.4 John Snow marked the deaths on a map.5 He found that most of the deaths were near a water pump.6 He had the handle removed from the water pump.7 He announced that the water carried the disease.8 King Cholera was defeated.Answer key for Exercise 2:1 John Snow finally proved his idea because he found an outbreak that was clearly related to cholera, collected information and was able to tie cases outside the area to the polluted water.2 No. The map helped John Snow organize his ideas. He was able to identify those households that had had many deaths and check their water-drinking habits. He identified those houses that had had no deaths and surveyed their drinking habits. The evidence clearly pointed to the polluted water being the cause.3 Three diseases, which are similar today, are SARS, AIDS and bird flu, because they are serious, have an unknown cause and need public health care to solve them. Sample summary for Exercise 3:John Snow wanted to find the cause of cholera. He believed that people became ill after eating infected food. He used the next outbreak of cholera to test his idea. He studied a small area of houses which got their water from the same pump. Many people in the area died. John Snow showed that this was because the water in the pump was infected. He showed that cholera could be defeated if people drank clean water.LEARNING ABOUT LANGUAGE Discovering useful words and expressions Suggested answers to Exercise 1:1 victim2 physician3 analyse4 defeat5 challenge6 enquiry7 pump 8 blame 9 absorb10 link...toAnswer key for Exercise 2:1 severe2 suspected3 exposed4 experts5 cure6 foresaw7 concluded 8 announced 9 attended Answer key for Exercise 3:make a suggestion make a decision make a plan make a contributionmake a speech make a noise make a change make a descriptionmake an investigationSome possible examples for Exercise 4: 1 The teacher asked us not to make faces in class.2 I tried to make friends with my neighbour but he was too old and did not want to talk to me.3 The best way to make money is to study hard and gain good qualifications.4 I didn’t like them to collect me in their car so I made my way to the restaurant on foot by myself.5 I’m too tired to make dinner, so I decide to eat out.6 Before you pay for that new car make sure it has a guarantee, which will protect you against any problems during the first year.7 Don’t make up your mind about buying that house till you have seen a few more.8 When you leave your flat in the morning, it looks tidier if you make the bed before you go.9 I have tried to make room for her on that course but there are just too many people already attending it.Discovering useful structuresSome possible answers for Exercise 1:1 ...when he thought about helping ordinary people exposed to cholera.(attribute)2 He immediately told the astonished people in Broad Street to remove the handle from the pump.(attribute)3 He became interested in two theories.(pre-dicative)4 Neither its cause, nor its cure was under- stood.(predicative)Answer key for Exercise 2:Past Participle as theAttribute (1)Past Participle as theAttribute (2)1 terrified people 1 people terrified of(cholera)2 reserved seats 2 seats reserved by...3 polluted water 3 water polluted by...4 a crowded room 4 a room crowdedwith...5 a pleased winner 5 a winner pleasedwith...6 astonished children 6 children astonishedat/by...7 a broken vase 7 a vase broken by...8 a closed door 8 a door closed by...9 the tired audience 9 the audience tiredof...10 a trapped animal 10 an animal trappedin/by...Answer key for Exercise 3:1 blamed/upset2 tired3 disappointed 4shocked/depressed5 excited6 infectedUSING LANGUAGELISTENING TEXTA GREAT CHINESE SCIENTISTFather of the Chinese space programmeYu Ping (YP) is talking to her friend Steve Smith (SS) about Qian Xuesen and his work as a rocket scientist.Part 1YP: What do you want to be when you grow up, Steve?SS:I want to be an astronomer and visits stars.

I hope you will publish it for several reasons.I understand the problems with the present theory. The way the planets move is not what you would expect if the earth was the centre of the universe. It is also odd that the brightness of some stars seems to change. So I agree with you that we need a new theory.I know your observations have been very carefully carried out over many years. Now you must have the courage to publish them. Science can never advance unless people have the courage of their beliefs. I know you worry about what will happen if you publish your new theory.

More about this appears in the first reading passage.Question 2: It takes ten hours to fly from Beijing to London Heathrow Airport if you take a direct flight.Question 3:It may appear to an outsider that the Queen has an important role in ruling the country. However, this is not so. Her position is ceremonial: opening Parliament, welcoming Heads from other countries, going on tours to other countries to encourage trade with Britain, etc. The Prime Minister together with his most important ministers (called the Cabinet) and his Members of Parliament (each from a different part of the country) make the important political decisions and the laws. Question 4: The counties of Britain are much smaller than provinces in China. They have local government powers for their area. Counties have several Members of Parliament depending on the size of their population. Large towns such as Reading have two MPs and the largest city in England outside London, which is Birming- ham, has ten MPs.Question 5: The Rivers Thames and Severn are very similar in length but the River Thames is slightly longer. The River Thames is 338 km and the River Severn is 290 km. The River Avon is much shorter.

高中英语 必修5作业手册答案
课时作业(二十一)Ⅰ.【文章大意】本文主要介绍了杰出的英国物理学家斯蒂芬·霍金去世的消息以及他的生平的信息。
1.D细节理解题。
根据第四段“He was able to move only a few fingers on one hand and was completely dependent on others or on technology for everything—bathing, dressing, eating, even speech.”可知,霍金不得不依靠其他人和科技来做生活中的每一件事。
故选D项。
2.C细节理解题。
根据第三段“It will be difficult enough to avoid disasters on planet Earth in the next 100 years, let alone next thousand, or million.”可知,在接下来的一百年、一千年或一百万年内,这些地球灾难是难以避免的。
C项表述与之相反,所以C项不是霍金所认为的。
故选C项。
3.A句义猜测题。
画线句的字面意思是指“人类不应该把鸡蛋放在一个篮子里”,结合上下文可知,此处比喻如果把鸡蛋放在一个篮子里,就如同人类仅仅选择在地球居住一样,地球一旦毁灭,就会全军覆没。
据此推断,画线句子的深层意思是“人类应该探索其他星球来生存,以躲过地球的毁灭性的灾难”。
故选A项。
4.A标题判断题。
本文主要介绍了杰出的英国物理学家斯蒂芬·霍金去世,享年76岁。
他在科学界有着举足轻重的地位,所以他的去世,就如一颗恒星在宇宙中消失了一样,是人类的巨大的损失。
所以最佳题目是A项“A star went out in the cosmos(一颗恒星在宇宙中消失)”,既说明了霍金去世这一事件,又有深刻寓意。
故选A项。
Ⅱ.【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文。
文章介绍了书信在人类历史中的重要作用,分析了人类写信的原因以及现在书信的变化趋势。

教材练习答案及听力原文Unit 1WARMING UP1 Archimedes, Ancient Greek (287-212 BC) He was a mathematician. He found that if you put an object into water the water pushes the object up. It rises and partly floats. The force of the water pushing it upis the same as the weight of the object.2 Charles Darwin, British (1808-1882) The Origin of Species was published in 1859. It explained how plants and animals had changed over time to fit in with a changing environment. At the time it was published itwas very controversial. Many people believed the Bible when it said that God made the first two people (Adam and Eve) and that all other people came from these two. Darwin’s book showed that people had developed from apes instead. So this causeda lot of argument between religious and scientific people. However Darwin’s idea became very influential and is still accepted today.3 Thomas Newcomen, British (1663-1729) He improved the first steam pump built by Thomas Savery in 1698 and turned it into a steam engine for taking water out of minesin 1712. James Watt improved it still furtherin the 1770s turning it into the first modern steam engine used on the railways.4 Gregor Mendel, Czech (1822-1884) He grew pea plants and developed ideas on heredity and inherited characteristics. He concentrated on cross-fertilising pea plants and analyzing the results. Between 1856-1863 he grew 28,000 pea plants. He examined seven kinds of seed and plant characteristics and developed some laws of inheritance. The first is that inheritance factors do not combine but are passed to the next generation intact. Second, he found that each partner gives half the inherited factors to the young. Third, someof these factors show up in the offspring (and so are dominant). The other factors are masked by the dominant ones (and so are recessive).5 Marie Curie, Polish and French (1867-1934) She was born in Poland and came to study in France in 1891 and she lived there for the rest of her life. In 1898 she discovered radium. She received two Nobel prizes, one (with Pierre Curie) for physics (1903) and one for chemistry (1911). She is the only person to have been so honoured. On the death of her husband she took over his job at the Sorbonne in Paris. Her work on radioactivity and the discoveryof radium meant that she began a new scientific area of research. She was the first woman to receive a Nobel Prize and the first woman to teach at the Sorbonne.6 Thomas Edison, American (1847-1931) He was already an inventor of other electrical devices (phonograph, electric light bulb) when in 1882 he designed a system for providing New York with electricity from a central power station. This was a tremendous achievement, which hadpreviously been thought impossible.7 Leonardo da Vinci , Italian (1452-1519) He was a famous artist whose skill for showing human skin tones made his paintings seem to come alive. He used to study dead people in order to make his paintings as accurate as possibile. Some of his famous paintings include “The Adoration of the Magi ” a nd the “The Last Supper ”. Later in his life he lived in France where he designed a submarine and a flying machine.8 Sir Humphry Davy , British (1778-1829) He did research into differentgases anddiscovered the medicinal value of nitrous oxide (or laughing gas) as an anaesthetic. In 1815 he developed a safety lamp for miners. Previously there had been many accidents when candles on the miners ’ helmets had exploded when it came into contact with underground gas from the coal the miners were digging. The safety helmet made working underground very much safer. 9 Zhang Heng , Chinese (78-139) He invented the first seismograph to indicate in the direction of an earthquake. It was in the shape of a cylinder with eight dragon heads round the top, each with a ball in its mouth. Around the bottom were eight frogs directly underadragon ’s head.Whenanearthquake occurred, a ball fell out of the dragon ’s mouth, makin g a noise.10 Stephen Hawking , British (1942-) He has worked in astronomy and studied black holes in space. He has shown that black holes do not only absorb everything around them but, from time to time, throw out matter as well. This may mark the beginning of new galaxies. This is an advance on the old theory which said that black holes “eat ” everything they come across. COMPREHENDINGAnswer key for Exercise 1:1 An outbreak of cholera hit London in 1854.2 John Snow began to test two theories.3 John Snow investigated two streets where the outbreak was very severe.4 John Snow marked the deaths on a map.5 He found that most of the deaths were near a water pump.6 He had the handle removed from the water pump.7 He announced that the water carried the disease.8 King Cholera was defeated. Answer key for Exercise 2:1 John Snow finally proved his idea because he found an outbreak that was clearly related to cholera, collected information and was able to tie cases outside the area to the polluted water.2 No. The map helped John Snow organize his ideas. He was able to identify those households that had had many deaths and check theirwater-drinkinghabits.Heidentified those houses that had had no deaths and surveyed their drinking habits. The evidence clearly pointed to the polluted water being the cause.3 Three diseases, which are similar today, are SARS, A IDS and bird flu, because they are serious, have an unknown cause and need public health care to solve them. John Snow wanted to find the cause of cholera. He believed that people became ill after eating infected food. He used the next outbreak of cholera to test his idea. He studied a small area of houses which got their water from the same pump. Many people in the area died. John Snow showed that this was because the water in the pump was infected. He showed that cholera could be defeated if people drank clean water.LEARNING ABOUT LANGUAGEDiscovering useful words and expressions1 victim2 physician3 analyse4 defeat5 challenge6 enquiry7 pump 8 blame 9 absorb10 link...to1 severe2 suspected3 exposed4 experts5 cure6 foresaw7 concluded 8 announced 9 attended3:make a suggestion make a decision make a plan make a contributionmake a speech make a noisemake a change make a descriptionmake an investigation4:1 The teacher asked us not to make faces in class.2 I tried to make friends with my neighbourbut he was too old and did not want to talkto me.3 The best way to make money is to studyhard and gain good qualifications.4 I didn’t like them to collect me in their car so I made my way to the restaurant on footby myself.5 I’m too tired to make dinner, so I decideto eat out.6 Before you pay for that new car make sureit has a guarantee, which will protect you against any problems during the first year.7 Don’t make up your mind about buying that house till you have seen a few more.8 When you leave your flat in the morning,it looks tidier if you make the bed before you go.9 I have tried to make room for her on that course but there are just too many people already attending it.Discovering useful structures1 ...when he thought about helping ordinary people exposed to cholera.(attribute)2 He immediately told the astonished people in Broad Street to remove the handle from the pump.(attribute)3 He became interested in two theories.(pre-dicative)4 Neither its cause, nor its cure was under- stood.(predicative)Past Participle as theAttribute (1)Past Participle as theAttribute (2)1 terrified people 1 people terrified of(cholera)2 reserved seats 2 seats reserved by...3 polluted water 3 water polluted by...4 a crowded room 4 a room crowdedwith...5 a pleased winner 5 a winner pleasedwith...6 astonished children 6 children astonishedat/by...7 a broken vase 7 a vase broken by...8 a closed door 8 a door closed by...9 the tired audience 9 the audience tiredof...10 a trapped animal 10 an animal trappedin/by...1 blamed/upset2 tired3 disappointed 4shocked/depressed5 excited6 infectedUSING LANGUAGELISTENING TEXTA GREAT CHINESE SCIENTISTFather of the Chinese space programmeYu Ping (YP) is talking to her friend Steve Smith (SS) about Qian Xuesen and his work as a rocket scientist.Part 1YP: What do you want to be when you grow up, Steve?SS:I want to be an astronomer and visitsstars.

I’d like to be a rocket scientist like Qian Xuesen.SS:What did he have to do to become arocket scientist?YP:Well, he first studied at university to bean engineer. Later he went to America tostudy for his doctor’s degree. It was then he began to work on rockets.SS:So it was lucky for our space programmethat he came back to China.YP:Very much so. There was no work onspace rockets in China before he began hisinstitute to design and build rockets to gointo space.Part 2SS:Do you think he wanted to travel intospace in one of his rockets?YP:I have no idea but I believe he looked forward to the first space flight by a Chinese astronaut.SS:Yes. N ow that China has sent satellitesinto space. I hope we’ll be the first to land on Mars. That would really be somethingspecial and if I were that astronaut I wouldput Qian Xuesen’s picture on Mars to showhow much we admire his work.YP:Indeed.

I hope you will publish it for several reasons.I understand the problems with the present theory. The way the planets move is not what you would expect if the earth was the centre of the universe. It is also odd that the brightness of some stars seems to change. So I agree with you that we need a new theory.I know your observations have been very carefully carried out over many years. Now you must have the courage to publish them. Science can never advance unless people have the courage of their beliefs. I know you worry about what will happen if you publish your new theory. No matter how people oppose it, time will show whether your ideas are right or wrong.So I hope you will feel you can publish your new theory.Yours sincerely,(your name)Unit 2 WARMING UP1 C2 B (direct flight)3 B4 A5 B Question 1: The United Kingdom consists of England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. More about this appears in the first reading passage.Question 2: It takes ten hours to fly from Beijing to London Heathrow Airport if you take a direct flight.Question 3:It may appear to an outsider that the Queen has an important role in ruling the country. However, this is not so. Her position is ceremonial: opening Parliament, welcoming Heads from other countries, going on tours to other countriesto encourage trade with Britain, etc. The Prime Minister together with his most important ministers (called the Cabinet) and his Members of Parliament (each from a different part of the country) make the important political decisions and the laws. Question 4: The counties of Britain are much smaller than provinces in China. They have local government powers for their area. Counties have several Members of Parliament depending on the size of their population. Large towns such as Reading have two MPs and the largest city in England outside London, which is Birming- ham, has ten MPs.Question 5: The Rivers Thames and Severn are very similar in length but the River Thames is slightly longer. The River Thames is 338 km and the River Severn is 290 km. The River Avon is much shorter.

LISTENING TEXTCAN PEOPLE REALLY LIVE ON MARS LI Qiang(LQ) isinterviewingWalkerHiller(WH) on the space station about his idea for building a new town called “Wonderworld ” on Mars.LQ: Well, Mr Hiller Why did you think of building a new town on Mars?WH: It sounds astonishing, doesn ’t it? I imagine that it ’ll be difficult and the atmosphere, gravity, and climate will have to be just like the earth or nobody will travel there.LQ: Can you imagine how that ’ll be achieved?WH: Yes, I think so. The atmosphere ’s too hot and has no oxygen. So people couldn ’tbreathe Mars ’air and live. We ’ll m ake a covered area for people to live in with a special air supply.LQ: Is it likely you can find and use water to keep the climate similar to that on the earth?WH: Perhaps. We hope there’s water under the planet ’s surface. People will have to collect all the used water so it can be cleaned and recycled as rain. Then it can be used again to water plants and crops and provide clean drinking water.LQ: Yes. I suppose everyone will have to put their dirty water in special tanks. Even animals will have to be trained to go to the toilet in special places. WH: Yes, I suppose so.LQ: So is it likely that bacteria will clean the water? WH: Well, that’s a possibility.LQ: I wonder if the houses can be made strong enough against the gravity on Mars? WH: Yes, they can. The robots will provide special building material.LQ: Still life sounds quite uncomfortable. So what ’s the advantage of going to live on Mars?WH: There will be opportunities for scien- tific work and to look for gold or other metals. So people may become rich or famous.LQ: How healthy will the people be, I wonder?Ticks for: living on another planet, atmos- phere and gravity, how to get water on Mars, houses in a town on Mars1 “Wonderworld ” will provide a covered area for people to live in with a special air supply.2 “Wonderworld ” will make sure there is enough water by collecting some fromunder the planet ’s surface.

Every single day, about 4,000 kids between the ages of 12 and 17 start smoking. Most junior school students don’t smoke－only about 1 in 10 does. Most senior school students don’t smoke either －about 1 in 4 does.But why do those who smoke ever begin? There’s more than just one simple answer. Some kids may startsmoking just because they’re curious. Others may like the idea of doing something that grown-ups do n’t want them to do. Still others might think smoking is a way to act or smoking makes them look like an adult.Luckily, fewer people are starting to smoke than a few years ago. Maybe that’s because more and more people have learned that smoking can cause cancer and heart disease. Sometimes kids don’t worry about what future illness they might get.Nicotine and other poisonous chemicals in tobacco cause lots of diseases, like heart problems and some kinds of cancer. If kids smoke, it will hurt their lungs and hearts each time they light up. It can also make it more difficult for blood to flow in the body, so smokers may feel tired. The longer they smoke, the worse the damage becomes.The human body is smart, and it knows when it’s being poisoned. When kids t ry smoking for the first time, they often cough a lot and feel pain or burnt in their throats and lungs. This is their lungs’ way of trying to protect them. Also, many kids say that they feel sick to their stomachs or课时训练2Section ⅢLearning about Language & Using LanguageⅠ.品句填词1．The origins of the ________(宇宙)are still a mystery.2．The May 4th ________(运动) of 1919 is very important in the history of China.3．Our teacher tells us that exercise ________(有助于)to good health.4．Several ________(热情的) young teachers have just started working at the school.5．She’s got a really ________(积极的)attitude to life.6．When her husband left home she felt ________(抛弃)and useless.Ⅱ.选词填空reject；be strict with；enthusiastic；make sense of；make sense；cautious1．I can’t ____________________this poem，but perhaps I will if I read it again.2．Although I ____________________ by the university, I didn’t lose heart.3．As she ____________ very __________________ her children, they developed a good studying habit.4．Only after finishing reading the passage can you find it ____________________.5．With so many people watching him, Jim was very ________________.6.

time.Studies are moving closer to designing robots that could do dangerous work，create prosthetic limbs(假肢)for humans that work much better than in the past，or even help some people who use wheelchairs to get“walking”abilities.“Researchers have been working toward robot movement for a long time，”said Jonathan Hurst，a professor at OSU.“What we’ve done is to study what behavior is really possible for a robot.”The movement of humans and other animals is difficult to ing little energy，they can move easily over hard areas，and enjoy balance from muscles(肌肉)．They have different ways to deal with forces，such as holding something hard in place rigidly(牢牢地)，like the act of holding a cup of coffee level during a car ride.In their recent studies，the OSU researchers proved that these two_abilities are mutually exclusive(相互排斥的)．Humans deal with this problem by using pairs of muscles.For a robot，the more it’s able to do one of these tasks，the less able it is to do the other.Presently，robots that can walk and run must be as rigid as possible while walking.But this way uses a lot of energy.The OSU researchers are working toward something that has similar or better performance，but uses far less energy，and is closer to the abilities of animals.“So there’s no reason why we shouldn’t be able to build robo ts with good movement ability，”Hurst said.“Clearly this might be useful in highly dangerous situations.But I could also see great improvements possible with prosthetic limbs that work much better than present technology.”1．The robots being studied by researchers at OSU________.A．are successful nowB．use little energyC．do better than beforeD．can run faster than humans2．Which of the following have researchers been studying all the time?A．The robots’ movement.B．The robots’ weight.C．The robots’ size s.D．The robots’ walking speed.3．The underlined words“two abilities”in Para.4 refer to________.A．walking and runningB．walking and holdingC．moving and using little energyD．moving and balancing4．According to Jonathan Hurst，we know that robots with good movement ability________. A．can be used in medical scienceB．are only used in highly dangerous situationsC．will hardly be created in the futureD．will have a bad influence on man5．Which section of a newspaper is this passage probably taken from?A．Business.B．Science.C．Environment.

It is the longest river in the world and flows about 6,677 km through Eastern Africa from its most remote sources in Burundi to a delta on theMediterranean Sea in Northeast Egypt. The main headstreams, the Blue Nile and the White Nile, join at Khartoum in Sudan to form the Nile proper. The river has been used for irrigation in Egypt since at least 4000 B. C．，a function now regulated largely by the Aswan High Dam.The source of the Nile and its life－giving flood were a mystery to the people of the world for centuries. First, Ptolemy held that the source was the “Mountain of the Moon”，and the search for the origin of the Nile attracted much attention of the people in the 18th and 19th centuries.Then James Bruce, the Scottish explorer, went to look for the source and identified Lake Jana as the source of the Blue Nile in 1770. And later, John Spike, the British explorer, went to search for the source of another branch of the Nile. He is credited with the identification of Lake Victoria and Ripon Falls as the source of the White Nile.Now the people along the Nile love it so much that they are trying all their best to protect it while they make good use of it for agriculture irrigation, industry and their daily life.课时训练4Section ⅢLearning about Language & Using LanguageⅠ.品句填词1．We were very busy so there was no time to go

German battleship Bismarck，the most powerful warship in the world，was moving out into the Atlantic Ocean.Her task：to destroy the ships carrying supplies from the United States to war-torn England.The British had feared such a task.No warship they had could match the Bismarck in speed or in firepower.The Bismarck had eight 15-inch guns and 81 smaller guns.She could move at 30 nautical miles(海里)an hour.She was believed to be unsinkable.However，the British had to sink her.They sent out a task force headed by their best battleship Hood to hunt down the Bismarck.On May 24，the Hood found the Bismarck.It was a meeting that the German commander Luetjens did not want to see.His orders were to destroy the British ships that were carrying supplies，but to stay away from a fight with British warships.The battle didn’t last long.The Bismarck’s first torpedo(鱼雷)hit the Hood，which went down taking all but three of her 1,419 men with her.But in the fight，the Bismarck was slightly damaged.Her commander decided to run for repairs to France，which had at that time been taken by the Germans.The British force followed her.However，because of the Bismarck’s speed and the heavy fog，they lost sight of her.For two days，every British ship in the Atlantic tried to find the Bismarck，but with no success.Finally，she was sighted by a plane from Ireland.Trying to slow the Bismarck down so that their ships could catch up with her，the British fired at her from the air.The Bismarck was hit.On the morning of May 27，the last battle was fought.Four British ships fired on the Bismarck，and she was finally sunk.1．The Bismarck sailed into the Atlantic Ocean ________.A．to sink the HoodB．to gain control of FranceC．to cut off American supplies to BritainD．to stop British warships reaching Germany2．Many people believed that the Bismarck could not be defeated because she ________. A．was fast and powerfulB．had more men on boardC．was under Luetjens commandD．had bigger guns than other ships3．We learn from the text that on May 24________.A．the British won the battle against the BismarckB．the Bismarck won the battle against the BritishC．the British gunfire damaged the Bismarck seriouslyD．the Bismarck succeeded in keeping away from theBritish4．Luetjens tried to sail to France in order to ________.A．have the ship repairedB．join the other GermansC．get help from the FrenchD．get away from the British5．Which of the following is the immediate cause of the sinking of the Bismarck?

Every single day, about 4,000 kids between the ages of 12 and 17 start smoking. Most junior school students don’t smoke－only about 1 in 10 does. Most senior school students don’t smoke either －about 1 in 4 does.But why do those wh o smoke ever begin? There’s more than just one simple answer. Some kids may startsmoking just because they’re curious. Others may like the idea of doing something that grownups don’t want them to do. Still others might think smoking is a way to act or s moking makes them look like an adult.Luckily, fewer people are starting to smoke than a few years ago. Maybe that’s because more and more people have learned that smoking can cause cancer and heart disease. Sometimes kids don’t worry about what future ill ness they might get.Nicotine and other poisonous chemicals in tobacco cause lots of diseases, like heart problems and some kinds of cancer. If kids smoke, it will hurt their lungs and hearts each time they light up. It can also make it more difficult for blood to flow in the body, so smokers may feel tired. The longer they smoke, the worse the damage becomes.The human body is smart, and it knows when it’s being poisoned. When kids try smoking for the first time, they often cough a lot and feel pain or burnt in their throats and lungs. This is their lungs’ way of trying to protect them. Also, many kids say that they feel sick to their stomachs orUnit 1Great scientistsSection ⅡWarming Up & Reading－Language PointsⅠ.品句填词1．characteristics 2.enquiries 3.instructed4．challenges 5.suspect 6.cureⅡ.选词填空1．drawing a conclusion 2.was absorbed in 3.cured4．attended on 5.exposeⅢ.单项填空1．【解析】选C。

Naturally第三部分阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分，满分40分)阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出选项：Everyone wants some degree of success. Many people believethat they deserve success simply because they believe thatthey deserve success.But there is a widespread belief that people who get on inlife may be successful not because they deserve it, but because of influential (有影响的) friends or the right background. Sometimes it may just be a comforting andharmless belief, while at the other extreme it can be very destructive. I once met a brilliant young engineer who worked in a chemical plant. Because of her knowledge and experience, she should have been promoted to Production Manager. Instead, the job went to a man who was totally unsuited for the post.Everyone knew that he only got it because he was politically acceptable to his superiors (上司). This injustice discouraged the young engineer and many of her colleagues. It also meant that the factory was much less efficient than it could have been.At the same, we should not be pessimistic (悲观的). More and more then modern world depends on having people who are in the job because they are good enough, not just because their faces fit. There is a story of a factory owner who sent for an engineer to see to a machine which would not go. He examined it, then took out a hammer and tapped, once. The machine started up immediately. When he presented his bill, the owner protested, “This can't be right! $ 100 just for tapping a machine with a hammer?” The e ngineer wrote out a new bill：“For tapping a machine, $1; for knowing where to tap. $99.”56. The engineer at the chemical plant was not promoted because _____.A. it was politically less good for the boss to accept her than the manB. her boss did not think she had the fight qualificationsfor the jobC. the man who got the promotion was more experienced than she wasD. it is more difficult for a woman to get a promotion than for her male colleague57. The engineer who repaired the machine was right in charging $ 100 because____.A. he hit the machine to get it started againB. the factory owner could not have repaired it himselfC. he was charging for his knowledge and expert skillsD. he was the only person who could find out what was wrong with it58. What can we learn about the author's attitude toward the widespread belief that “people get on in life may be successful not because they deserve it”?A. He quite agrees with it.B. He doesn't express his opinion his opinion at it.C. He completely disagrees with it.D. He doesn't quite agree with it.59. According to the text, which of the following is NOT true?A. Having influential friends or right background seems helpful sometimes.B. The engineer had good reason to overcharge the factory owner.C. Not all those who are good in their jobs have the chanceto be promoted.D. Those who are good in their jobs are still largely needed by the modern society.Art Lecture：Artist Zhang Xiaogang from Tsinghua Academy of Fine Arts will give a lecture on Chinese contemporary culture and art on Saturday afternoon.A painter himself, Zhang will mainly talk about the past twenty years.Tickets： 50 Yuan (US$6)Time/ Date： 8：00 to 10：00 pm, March 8 (Sat.)Lee’s Antique Carpet, in the Kent Centre,Liangmaqiao Lu, Chaoyang DistrictTel： 88545731Make-up FunLearn to paint Peking Opera masks (脸谱) with artists on Sunday.The artists will explain the basic meaning of each type.After that, you get a chance to paint your own face or to be painted by the artists as a monkey, lady and so on.

A library is one place where wecan see changes. Many innovative(革新的) things are happening in both public and university libraries. Libraries using new equipment and techniques for research, and librarians are teaching students the new techniques.One service that some university libraries are now providingis a computer search of materials for students doing research. Before starting a research project, students may check with their library to see if a computer search is worthwhile. This kind of search cannot help with all research projects, but it can save time if the topic is in the computer's database(数据库). When you are doing a manual (人工的) search for a research paper, you look at all the indexes(索引) suitablefor the research topic. You look up the words related to the topic in the indexes. It takes many hours to look up this information and write down the references. A computer searchis faster and easier. You and a librarian decide on the words to enter the computer. The computer looks for these words in this database and gives you a list of reference for your topic. A computer can take two or more ideas and produce references that combine those ideas. A computer search canalso be more complete than a manual search.College and university libraries are providing other technological services as well. Another change is thefrequent use of microfilm. Libraries are able to collect building by having newspapers, magazines, and other documentson microfilm. Students use microfilm readers in the library for these materials.These innovations in libraries are helpful to library users, but they are also expensive. Many libraries are facing budget problems. There is more technology available today; as a result, libraries are facing budget problem. There is more technology available today; as a result, libraries are paying higher costs for the equipment that makes researches easier.64. Before a research begins, students may find out in the library_____.A. if librarians are helpful to themB. if a computer search will be usefulC. if a computer writes out a list of the words they enteredD. if the computer looks through its database to choose their topic65. When the computer's database includes the researchtopic_____.A. computer searches can save timeB. computer searches are useless for most kinds of researchC. computer searches are not helpful before the research projectD. a computer search for materials is the best way to begin any type of research66. Libraries can keep larger amounts of materials by _____.A. buying a lot of newspapersB. using different indexes from other university librariesC. collecting more information on other university buildingD. having microfilm copies of newspapers and other documents67. What can be concluded from the last paragraph?A. Technological innovations are helpful but expensive.B. Libraries have budget problems because it is easier to use newspapers.C. Libraries have budget problems because of the many library users.D. Technological equipment makes research easier for thelibraryMany people like the feeling of the gentle wind in spring. Many like to see the falling leaves dancing in the wind in autumn. But sometimes, when the wind becomes a storm, it canbe very destructive (毁灭性的).A series of such storms struck the US last month and caused very serious damage and human pain.Every year, major storms cause many problems around the world. There is nothing people can do to stop these powerful forcesof nature. But new techniques are helping scientists topredict(预测) how, when, and where big storms will happen.The more exact scientists’ warnings are, the better people can prepare for the storms.Predictions are improving. “We’ve gotten better over the years, especially the last few years,” says Phil Klotzback, a scientist at an American university. How is a storm formed? Even if scientists know where a storm will happen, winds can suddenl y change, carrying the storm to a new direction. “For a hurricane to happen, conditions have to be just right,” Klotzback says.。
