单元综合测评(三)Ⅰ.阅读理解(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)A(2016·西安质量检测)Stephen Hawking,who spent his career exploring the universe and even experienced weightlessness,is urging the continuation of space exploration—for future generation's sake. The 71yearold Hawking said he did not think humans would survive another 1,000 years “without escaping beyond our fragile planet”.The British scientist made the remarks Tuesday before an audience of doctors, nurses and employees at CedarsSinai Medical Center,where he toured a stem cell (干细胞) laboratory that's focused on trying to slow the progression of Lou Gehrig's disease (“渐冻人”病).Wellknown for his work on black holes and the origins of the universe, Hawking is famous for bringing mysterious physics concepts to the masses through his bestselling books, including A Brief History of Time, which sold more than 10 million copies worldwide. Hawking titled his hour-long lecture to Cedars-Sinai employees “A Brief History of Mine”.Hawking was diagnosed (诊断) with Lou Gehrig's disease 50 years ago when he was a student at Cambridge University. He recalled how he became depressed and at first didn't see a point in finishing his education,but he continued his studies.Hawking has survived longer than most people with Lou Gehrig's disease because few people with Lou Gehring's disease live longer than a decade. People gradually have more and more trouble breathing and moving as muscles weaken and waste away. What's worse, there's no cure. Dr. Robert Baloh, director of CedarsSinai's ALS program said he had no explanation for the physicist's longevity. Balohsaid he has treated patients who lived for 10 years or more.“But 50 years is unusual,to say the least,”he said.Despite his diagnosis, Hawking has remained active. In 2007,he floated like an astronaut on an aircraft that creates weightlessness. Hawking had some valuable advice:Look up at the stars and not down at your feet. Be curious.“Ho wever difficult life may seem, there is always something you can do and succeed at.”【语篇解读】本文是一篇人物介绍。

He is said to be “undersized”,with “s hort legs” and a “round stomach”. The issue here is not the accuracy of Tolstoy's description—it seems not that far off from historical accounts but his choice of facts: Other things that could be said of the man are not said. We are meant to understand the difference of a warring commander in the body of a fat little Frenchman. Tolstoy's Napoleon could be any man wandering in the streets and putting a little of powdered tobacco up his nose—and that is the point.It is a way the novelist uses to show the moral nature of a character. And it turns out that, as Tolstoy has it, Napoleon is a crazy man. In a scene in Book Three of War and Peace, the wars having reached the critical year of 1812, Napoleon receives a representative from the Tsar(沙皇), who has come with peace terms. Napoleon is very angry: Doesn't he have more army? He, not the Tsar, is the one to make the terms. He will destroy all of Europe if his army is stopped. “That is what you will have gained by engaging me in the war!” he shouts. And then, Tolstoy writes, Napoleon “walked silently several times up and down the room, his fat shoulders moving quickly.”Still later, after reviewing his army amid cheering crowds, Napoleon invites the shaken Russian to dinner. “He raised his hand to the Russian's face,”Tolstoy writes, and “taking him by the ear pulled it gently.”To have one's ear pulled by the Emperor was considered the greatest honor and mark of favor at the French court. “Well, well, why don't you say anything?” said he, as if it was ridiculous in his presence to respect any one but himself, Napoleon.Tolstoy did his research, but the composition is his own.【语篇解读】这是一篇议论文。

A(2016·抚州高二模拟)Fading beautyShe is widely seen as proof that good looks can last for ever. But, at nearly 500 years of age, time is catching up with the Mona Lisa.The health of the famous picture, painted by Leonardo Da Vinci in 1505, is getting worse by the year, according to the Louvre Museum where it is housed.“The thin, wooden panel on which the Mona Lisa is painted in oil has changed shape since experts checked it two years ago,”the museum said. Visitors have noticed changes, but repairing the world's most famous painting is not easy. Experts are not sure about the materials the Italian artist used and their current chemical state.Nearly 6 million people go to see the Mona Lisa every year, many attracted by the mystery of her smile. “It is very interesting that when you're not looking at her, she seems to be smiling, and then you look at her and she stops,”said Professor Margaret Livingstone of Harvard University. “It's because direct vision is excellent at picking up detail, but less suited to looking at shadows, Da Vinci painted the smile in shadows.”However, the actual history of the Mona Lisa is just as mysterious as the smile. Da Vinci himself loved it so much that he always carried it with him, until it was eventually sold to France's King Francis Ⅰin 1519.In 1911, the painting was stolen from the Louvre by a former employee, who took it out of the museum hidden under his coat. He said he planned to return it to Italy.The painting was sent back to France two years later.During World War Ⅱ,French hid the painting in small towns to keep it out of the hands of German forces.Like many old ladies, the Mona Lisa has some interesting stories to tell.1.What does the writer mean by “time is catching up with the Mona Lisa”?A.The painting woman is not so beautiful any more.B.Aging is something that affects us all.C.At such an old age, she is no longer popular.D.The painting needs repairing.【解析】句意理解题。

Sometimes I treated children who had been poisoned by medicine for older family members. The children didn’t know the medicine was dangerous; they just knew it tasted sweet. Children easily open the bottle that we now use in China.Some days ago I talked about medicines with an American. He showed me a sort of plastic bottle. The design was quite simple and I’m sure our Chinese factories could produce these bottles. The top of the bottle licks but can be opened by pressing down on it while turning.

I was raised to respect others and value education.“You can be anything you want to be, ”my parents always say. My parents are never without a helpful word of advice or a bit of encouragement when life gets tough.I always knew that going to college was expected of me.After all, both of my parents are college graduates with many degrees.Even after I decided that I'd ratherget married to a man who was so clearly wrong for me than go to college at 16, they never stopped telling me that they loved me and that I could do anything I wanted to do.Thankfully, they talked some sense into me. I graduated from high school and currently attend the University of Oklahoma. I want to make the world a better place. And I know that my parents are the reason for this.Every time I call home to tell them about a grade I received, they tell me how proud of me they are. I know there are college students out there that have no one to call home to when they get an “A”on a project and I feel lucky to have my parents.Don't get me wrong. We've had our share of problems,I was the angry teenager and they were the terrible parents that wouldn't let me stay out all night or let me get my tongue pierced(穿透). But we managed to work through those issues. They never stopped loving me or believing in me.Without their constant love and encouragement, I can't be successful.My parents taught me to always fight for what I believe in. And so I'm working toward something really great and can only hope that I continue to make them proud.【语篇解读】文章主要介绍了父母永恒的爱和鼓励对作者所产生的巨大作用.5.We can know from the passage that the author's parents .A.are very strict with childrenB.never give advice to childrenC.live in Dallas all their livesD.are both welleducated【解析】细节理解题.由第二段“After all,both of my parents are college graduates with many degrees.”可知,作者的父母都是大学毕业并有多个学位,由此可知答案.【答案】D6.According to Paragraph 3 the following are true EXCEPT that .A.the author likes to show off her achievementsB.not every college student has supportive parentsC.the author feels lucky to have such good parentsD.the author's parents give her much encouragement【解析】细节理解题.由第三段内容可知,作者在学校每次往家里打电话并向父母汇报学习成绩时,她的父母都为她自豪.这样作者一方面安慰了父母,自己同时也得到了父母的鼓励.这让作者感到无比的幸福,因为并不是每个人都有这样的父母.由此可知答案.【答案】A7.What can we infer from the passage?A.The author feels very sorry for her parents.B.The author is a fashionable but troubled teen.C.Nothing can prevent the author's parents loving her.D.There is no gap between the author and her parents.【解析】推理判断题.由第二段“...they never stopped telling me that they loved me...”及第四段“They never stopped loving me or believing in me.”可知,无论以前作者如何不懂事,父母都没有放弃对她的爱.现在作者与父母之间也存在分歧,但是他们都努力解决了,作者的父母对她的爱与信任从来没有停止过.由此可推断,没有什么能够阻止作者的父母对她的爱.【答案】C8.The author writes the passage to .A.encourage us never to give upB.remind us to have a great aim in lifeC.express her gratitude to her parentsD.talk about her growing experiences【解析】写作意图题.作者通过讲述父母一生中对自己永恒不变的爱,表达了自己对父母的感激之情,并以此为动力,继续努力奋斗.【答案】CⅢ.语法填空(2015·全国卷Ⅰ)Yangshuo,ChinaIt was raining lightly when I 1.
