Unit 1 A land of diversityⅠ.阅读理解A［2018·宁夏石嘴山高三模拟］There is a large percentage of Asian people in the US. They’re hard working, respectful but strange sometimes. If you don't understand the culture, you will get some problems with them。

Asian people are different from any other cultures。

If you think you know them, you might want to think again。

How are they different？ When it comes to most Asian culture, respect is everything。

Beijing’s Forbidden City is a place full of wonder. From its thousands of rooms to its many beautiful artifacts, there’s no wonder it’s one of China’s most popular tourist destinations.But even more than 600 years after it was built, it’s still managing to serve up surprises. Since it was built during the Ming Dynasty, it’s estimated that the Forbidden City has survived more than 200 earthquakes. And while most structures aren’t made to survive natural disasters, let alo ne ones built hundreds of years ago, it seems that the Forbidden City was built to withstand anything.A recent television documentary by UK broadcaster Channel 4 explored the skills of the ancient building’s designers. A group of Chinese carpenters and e ngineers were shown building a scale model (成比例模型) of one of the Forbidden City’s palaces, at one fifth of the size.To show how strong ancient Chinese architecture really is, the model was put to the test. It was subjected to a simulated (模拟的) earthquake of 9.5 on the Richter scale – equivalent to the largest ever recorded quake – and survived. Instead of falling apart, the model was just moved gently during the test.According to experts, the answer to the Forbidden City’s strength, as well as other anc ient Chinese structures’, lies in dougong– a centuries-old building method invented in China. This is the name for special brackets on buildings. Despite being held together without any nails or glue, the brackets are perfect at keeping structures together when the weather gets rough.“Dougong design is an important earthquake-resistant feature of classical Chinese structures because the framework changes in shape when under pressure, much like the shock absorbers (减震器) of a car,” according to Chinese Nati onal Geography. “Ancient Chinese craftsmen created structures that were both enduring and aesthetically (在美学方面) pleasing using dougong, revealing their advanced understanding of mathematics, architecture, materials, and structural science.”The Forbidden City draws visitors because of its rich history and cultural significance, but perhaps it should add one more thing to its list of attractions: earthquake shelter.1. What is the article mainly about?A.What has made the Forbidden City a popular tourist destination.B.What has helped the Forbidden City survive so many earthquakes.C.The characteristics of Chinese architecture during the Ming Dynasty.D.A variety of building methods used in ancient Chinese structures.2. Which of the following can best replace the underlined phrase “was subjected to” in Paragraph 4?A. sufferedB. was controlled byC. obeyedD. was affected by3. What was the aim of the test in the UK documentary?A. To reproduce a real earthquake from the Ming Dynasty.B. To discover a long-lost Chinese building methodC. To explain the impact of earthquakes on ancient buildings.D. To prove the strength of ancient Chinese architecture.4. What is “dougong” according to the text?A. A paint that gives Chinese buildings an attractive look.B. A tool used by ancient people to measure earth-quakes.C. Special building parts that keep a traditional Chinese building together,D. A building piece located in the center of a traditional Chinese house.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了紫禁城的斗拱设计帮助它能够在多次地震中幸存。

“Her grades are fine；I'm not worried about that，but she just doesn't seem to love learning any more，” Alice's mum said.She's absolutely right.I'd noticed the same thing about her daughter over the previous two or three years when I'd been Alice's middle school English，Latin，and writing teacher，and I have an answer，right there on the tip of my tongue，to what has gone wrong.Yet I'm torn between my responsibility to help Alice and the knowledge that what I have to say is a truth I'm not sure this mother is ready to hear.The truth for this parent and so many others is this：Her child has sacrificed her natural curiosity and love of learning at the altar(圣坛)of achievement，and it's our fault.Alice's parents，her teachers，society at large—we are all supposed to be blamed in this crime against learning.From her first day of school，we pointed her toward that altar and trained her to measure her progress by means of points，scores，and awards.We taught Alice that her potential is tied to her intellect(智力)，and that her intellect is more important than her character.We taught her to come home proudly bearing grade As，championship prizes，and college acceptance，and not on purpose，we taught her that we don't really care how she obtains them.We taught her to protect her academic and extracurricular perfection at all costs and that it's better to quit when things get challenging rather than risk losing that perfect record.Above all else，we taught her to fear failure.That fear is what has destroyed her love of learning.1．Both the mother and the author have noticed that ________.A．Alice hates to tell them the truthB．Alice's test scores are not so goodC．Alice chooses several subjects to learnD．Alice doesn't enjoy studying any more2．What do es the underlined word“torn”mean in the passage?A．pained to choose B．guilty to quitC．tired to manage D．certain to decide3．What does the teacher think of the girl?A．Her academic perfection results from her character.B．She is a gifted girl with spirits of challenging.C．She is perfect in her character development.D．Her academic performance is great.4．What leads to the girl's change?A．A few failure experiences.B．Fear of failing to get good grades.C．Her mother's overprotection.D．Her not being accepted by colleges.【解题导语】本文通过Alice的例子说明了父母、老师和社会有时会扼杀孩子的好奇心和对学习的热爱。

Unit 1 A land of diversity完形填空之利用递进关系解题方法指导在语言表达中,为了表达的需要,经常用到“原词复现(包括派生词)”,即主题词或其他重要词汇一般会在短文中反复出现,考生需要捕捉此信息点。

完形填空有时会对这一阅读技能进行考查。

语篇复现的信息包括原词复现、同义词和反义词复现、上义词和下义词复现、概括词复现和代词复现等。

语篇中有词汇和结构同现的现象,如与语篇话题相关、意义相关的词汇同时出现,结构同现,同义同现,修饰同现,因果同现等。

因此,要利用上下文寻找解题信息,确定正确答案。

Fidel Castro was born at his father’s farm on August 13, 1926. His father, Angel Castro, was a migrant to Cuba from Galicia, Northwest Spain. He had become financially successful by growing sugarcane at Las Manacas farm in Biran, Oriente Province.Aged six, Castro was sent to live with his teacher in Santiago be Cuba, before being baptized(洗礼)into the Roman Catholic Church at the age of eight. Being baptized enabled Castro to attend the la Salle boarding school in Santiago, where he regularly misbehaved, so he was sent to the privately funded Dolores School in Santiago. In 1945 he transferred to a more famous school, De Belen in Havana. Although Castro took an interest in history, geography and debating at Belen, he did not excel academically, instead devoting much of his time to playing sport.In 1945, Castro began studying law at the University of Havana, where he became involved in student activism, and the violent gangsterism culture within the university. Passionate about anti-imperialism and opposing U.S. interference in the Caribbean, he unsuccessfully campaigned for the presidency of the Federation of University Students on a platform of “honesty, decency and justice”.

2019年高考英语一轮复习 Unit 1 A land of diversity考点规范练新人教版选修8Ⅰ.阅读理解AIn the fifteenth century Italy had no single ruler.Instead it was a collection of independent states,known as “city states” because each one was run by a centralcity such as Florence.Some were small;some were large.Most states had their own government,la ws and money.During the Middle Ages,five city states became very rich and powerful.For example,Venice became rich from its trade with the Far East,the Mediterranean and the rest of Europe.Banks in Florence lent money to businesses and governments all over Europe.There was great competition between the city states—which led to regular wars—and between the families which ruled them.The city states also competed with each other to build the grandest or tallest buildings.Let’s look in detail at one city—Florence.In 1400 Florence was one of the largest cities in Italy.It was the centre of a rich trade in wool and cloth.One-third of the workers in Florence worked in the wool trade.The most powerful family in Florence was the Medici family,who had made their money through banking.The most famous member of the family was Lorenzo de’ M edici who ruled the city between 1469 and 1492.The other powerful people who had influence in Florence were the members of the guilds (行业协会).Craftsmen such as carpenters each had their own guild.If you were a member of a guild and over 25 years old then you could be involved in governing the city.The rulers of Florence wanted their city to be impressive and famo us.The Medici collected books and built a huge library to house them.They spent money on renovating (修复) old buildings and putting up new ones.They built a splendid palace and employed painters and sculptors to decorate it.Some of the best and most famousartists were brought to work in Florence.1.What do we know about the city states?A.They ruled themselves.B.They were made up of fi ve cities.C.They didn’t trade with each other.D.They disappeared during the Middle Ages.2.The relationship between the city states can be described as .A.strongB.inflexibleC.unfriendlyD.cooperative3.According to the text,the Medici family .A.created their own guildB.contributed a lot to FlorenceC.was the single ruler of FlorenceD.became rich through doing woodwork4.Why did some artists go to Florence?A.Because there was great demand for art in Florence.B.Because there were

A land of diversity李仕才***阅读理解。

I love to read before I go to sleep.It usually makes me feel calm.But a big part of this depends on what I read.I love to read Oor Wullie and The Broons.Very often I'm smiling before I go to sleep.I decide to write about this in a blog because I find that so many of us go to sleep with stress.Before we go to sleep，we may run over the day in our minds，and worry about tomorrow.We also may watch the news on TV，read the news on our smart phones or tablets，or even answer work emails.But the news is rarely proclaiming(宣告)all the good that's happening in the world and work emails make us feel that we're still at work.All these things may leave us a stressful sleep.Oor Wullie and The Broons are not the only things I ever read at night.I sometimes read novels but，with the odd exception，I mostly avoid anything that is too mentally taxing or stimulating late at night unless it's something that inspires me or is clearly helpful in my life.And even if I do read something mentally stimulating，when I feel myself getting tired I lay that book down and pick up a trusty old Oor Wullie or The Broons for the last 10 or 15 minutes.Doing this makes my mind quiet and helps ensure I get a peaceful night's sleep.Reading about Wullie or Maw and Paw Broon is like a comfort blanket for me.I'd suggest you find lighthearted reading as a comfort blanket at bedtime，especially if you find yourself stressed or depressed a lot of the time，or if you find difficulty winding at the end of a day.It is the thing that can gently turn your attention towards lightness and ease.If your material makes you laugh，then you may feel even better.Several studies show that laughter boosts happy chemicals in the brain，it strengthens the immune system，it's good for the heart，and it is most definitely good for mental health.It even helps us improve our relationships.And if you do happen to pick up a copy of Oor Wullie or The Broons，I hope you find it just as entertaining as I do.1．What can we learn about Oor Wullie and The Broons?A．They make people run over the past days.B．They are the best books to be read before people sleep.C．They are extremely popular with young people.D．They make people feel relaxed and happy.2．What can we know from the text?A．Oor Wullie and The Broons are the author's favorite books.B．A comfortable blanket makes people go to sleep easily.C．The author sometimes reads something about inspirations.D．Reading something stimulating at night helps get a peaceful sleep.3．What is Paragraph 6 mainly about?A．What material brings us laughter.B．How laughter affects our health.C．What benefits laughter brings to us.D．Why laughter is good for us.4．What's the main purpose of the text?A．To show the importance of reading before sleeping.B．To prove the importance of a good mood before sleeping.C．To tell us how to make ourselves stay relaxed before sleeping.D．To explain how to choose a book worthy to be read before sleeping.【解题导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。

Unit 1 A land ofdiversityⅠ.阅读理解(2017山西第一次五校联考)Often a nickname is a shortened form of a person’s name, and it can also be a descriptive name for a place or a thing. Many American cities have nicknames. These can help build up an identity, spread pride among citizens and build their unity. Nicknames can also be funny.Los Angeles, California is the second largest city in population, after New York City. Los Angeles has several nicknames. One is simply the city’s initials, L.A.It is also called the City of Angels because Los Angeles means “the angels” in Spanish.Los Angeles often has warm, sunny weather.

He was forced by his father to give up the sport in order to obtain gainful employment, which meant he wouldn’tbe able to win a medal for his country. Therefore, he made a vow that his unborn son would do that. 1He was about to give up hope when one day, my younger sister Babita and I beat up two boys accidentally in response to critical comments. My dad found our potential to become wrestlers and began coaching us. 2 We were required to undergo physical training early in the morning and have short haircuts to avoid lice.3 We would complain all the time. Gradually, I realized that he wanted us to have a good future, instead of growing up to be ordinary housewives. Motivated, we willingly participated in his coaching.With great efforts, he made us competitive wrestlers and I won the junior and senior championships, which provided me with a chance to receive training in the National Academy of Sports, where pride and agony filled my mind. 4 As a result, I found myself losing every match at the international level. After that, I tearfully turned to my father for help. Then he coached me patiently.Despite the difficulty, I finally became the first Indian female wrestler to qualify for the Olympics, inspiring dozens of Indian women to take to wrestling. Even now, my father’s words are still in my mind:“Geeta, think about all the girls who are thought to be inferior to boys, girls who are forced to do the household chores, girls who are married and have children. You will compete not only with other countries, but also with those wh o look down upon women!”I will never forget father’s instruction. 5A.But his methods were cruel.B.I almost abandoned what my father had taught me.C.Disappointingly, my mother gave birth to two girls.D.My sister and I tried to escape.E.I will always owe my success to him.F.At first, my sister and I did not understand our father.G.However,my mother didn’t agree with him.Ⅲ.完形填空(2017安徽黄山二次质检)Men and women may have different experiences in shopping for clothes.A man goes shopping because he needs something.

To be sure, only children experienced some things differently fromthose with sisters and brothers. Many feel more pressure to succeed.They also tend to look only to their parents as role models in theabsence of brothers and sisters.In India, 10-year-old Saviraj Sankpal founded a support group forthe tiny minority of only children. Among other things, the group does volunteer work to counter(反对) the myth that they are not responsible. “People think we’re treat ed too kindly and ruined, ”says Sankpal, a computer engineering student. “But I’d like to remind them how lonely it can get. ”Most only children, however, say they wish for sisters or brothers only when it comes to caring for aging, unhealthy parents. Bri tain’s David Emerson, co-author of the book, The Only Child, says that such a person bears terrible burden in having to make all the decisions alone. Emerson knows from experience: After his father died, he chose to move his elderly mother from their family home, where she was vulnerable(易受攻击的) to house breakers, to a new one with more security. “The move was quite hard on her, and she might feel that I pushed her into it, ” he says. “After all, I am left with that responsibility. ”In the future, more and more only children will likely face similar choices. With working mothers increasing, many families are finding they simply don’t have the time, money or energy to have more than one child. As only children become common, perhaps the world will realize that the charge made against them is unjust. 【文章大意】本文主要讲述了独生子女在社会生活中所遇到的种种困难和各种挑战, 他们要面对社会对独生子女的诸多偏见。

Unit 1 A land of diversityⅠ.阅读理解AA new study by the British government has discovered the mental health of the country's teenage girls has become worse.The survey, which included 30,000 14yearold students in 2005 and 2014, showed 37 percent of girls with psychological stress, up from 34 percent in 2005. British boys' stress level was actually seen to fall over the same time period, from 17 percent to 15 percent.The report's authors pointed out the “advent of the social media age”could be a major contributing factor for increased stress among teenage British girls.“The adolescent years are a time of rapid physical，cognitive (认知的) and emotional development，”Pam Ramsden, a lecturer in psychology at the University of Bradford in the United Kingdom, wrote in a recent blog post.“Teenagers interact with people in order to learn how to become competent (有能力的)adults. In the past, they would engage with parents, teachers and other adults in their community as well as extended family members and friends. Now we can also add social media to that list of social and emotional development.”Throughout adolescence, girls and boys develop characteristics likeconfidence and selfcontrol. Since teenage brains have not comp letely developed, teens don't have the cognitive awareness and impulse (冲动)control to keep from posting inappropriate content. Furthermore, this content can easily be spread far and wide with disastrous influences.Social media can also fe ed into girls' insecurities about their appearance, Ramsden said. These sites are often filled with images of people with body type unattainable to the normal person. However, these images and the messages tied to them gradually become societal standards.[语篇解读] 一项新研究发现，英国少女的心理健康状况变得更糟；分析表明，社交媒体时代的到来可能是造成英国少女心理压力加大的主要因素。

选修8Unit 1 A land of diversity李仕才【短文语法填空】We live in a world where snapping (抓拍) photos of your kids and posting them to social media is about as natural to parents as kissing them.But when enjoying __1__ (they) with little ones, sharing pictures at birthday parties, or wearing new __2__ (cloth), parents should keep some moments private.Otherwise, you may put kids into embarrassment, or even __3__ (bad), make them a potential target for child traders.__4__，children at certain stages hate their photos to be made public too.Now, parents __5__ post pictures of their children on social media could be accused by their sons or daughters under France’s privacy laws.Mothers and fathers are likely __6__ (face) a year in prison and a fine of ￡35,000, if they __7__ (find) guilty of posting details of their children’s private lives without their permission.And adults, who accuse that their parents damaged their right to privacy when they __8__ (be) children, could receive a large amount of money from their parents.In February, Eric Delcroix，__9__ expert on Internet law, posted a message on WeChat, reading：“Please stop __10__ (post) pictures of your kids on WeChat.”语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文，主要呼吁父母不要轻易将孩子的照片放到社交媒体上以保护其隐私。

1．themselves enjoy oneself为固定搭配，意为“玩得高兴”，故用反身代词themselves。

2．clothes clothes是名词，意为“衣服”，这里指“穿新衣服”，故用clothes。

cloth意为“布料”。

3．worse even用来修饰比较级，故用worse，意为“甚至更糟糕的是”。

4．Besides/Furthermore/Moreover 根据对空格前后语境的理解可知，这里并列叙述了将孩子的照片放到社交媒体上的两个缺点，所以这两点之间应用承接副词Besides/Furthermore/Moreover，意为“此外”。

注意首字母大写。

5．who/that parents后为定语从句，定语从句中缺少主语，且先行词是parents，指人，故用关系代词who/that引导从句。

6．to face be likely to do sth.为固定搭配，意为“很可能做某事”，故用to face。

7．are found find与前面的主语they之间是被动关系，且全文时态主要是一般现在时，故用are found。

8．were 根据前面的“And adults, who accuse that their parents damaged their right to privacy ...”可知，此处指当他们是孩子的时候，是过去的事情，应用一般过去时。

故填were。

9．an an expert on Internet law为同位语，解释说明了Eric Delcroix。

同位语中常用不定冠词，表示“一……”；因为expert的读音是以元音音素开头的，故用an。

10．posting stop doing sth.为固定搭配，意为“停止做某事”，符合语境。

故填posting。
