高中英语Unit3AtasteofEnglishhumour培优练习（含答案）

Unit 3 A taste of English humour培优练习Ⅰ.阅读理解AA nation's humor is linked to the historical development of the country. How funny somebody finds a certain thing depends on many things including ages，personal experiences，levels of education and locations. Therefore，humor is something that is not always transferable (可转移的) in another country.What about when both countries speak the same mother tongue？Does that mean they will then share the same sense of humor，or can differences still take place？Let's take the example of Britain and America. Time and time again，people say that Brits and Americans don't “get” each other's sense of humor. It is often argued that one of the most common differences between the British and American sense of humor is that Americans don't understand irony (反话)．Simon Pegg explores this topic in depth in his article What Are You Laughing At？He concludes that this statement isn't true and I agree with him.In fact，Brits use irony on a daily basis while Americans don't. I think Americans understand British irony (most of the time anyway)；what they don't understand is the need to use it so frequently. When Americans use irony，they tend to say that they are “only kidding”．They feel the need to make a joke more obvious than Brits do. Maybe this comes from a fear of offending (冒犯) people.The American sense of humor is generally more slapstick (闹剧的) than that in Britain. I think this arises from a cultural difference between the two. Their jokes are more obvious and forward，a bit like Americans themselves. British jokes，on the other hand，tend to be more subtle．This may stem from the fact that British culture is more reserved (矜持的) than American culture.1．What does Paragraph 1 mainly show?A．Humor is difficult to get.B．Humor is influenced by culture.C．Not all people have a sense of humor.D．It is important to have a sense of humor.2．What is the author's point of view in Paragraph 2?A．Americans don't get Brits' humor.B．Americans know how to use irony.C．Simon Pegg is professional in using irony.D．Britain and America share the same sense of humor.3．What can we learn about Brits and Americans from Paragraph 3?A．Americans' jokes often offend people.B．Brits' irony is not easy to understand.C．They are different in how often to use irony.D．They are not sure about the need to use irony.4．What does the underlined word “subtle” mean?A．Hidden. B．Funny.C．Obvious.D．Special.BHobbies in general are becoming something of the past. Our lives are already filled with classes，homework，working，relationships and sleeping. When we do have a spare moment，it is all too easy to spend it on the endless entertainment and media that are right at our fingertips.I do not doubt that there are some people who could become a great writer or musician. I only fear that so many people are busy pursuing their education and their careers，but they never even see the potential (潜能) they have. The next great photographer or singer could be going to college right now. But they might not even know they have a gift for photographing or singing if they've never picked up a camera or a guitar.Of course，the final goal of pursuing a new hobby shouldn't be to become rich and famous. For most people，a hobby is just something they enjoy doing for the purpose of the thing itself. Such hobbies are still very useful. Studies have shown that people who have a hobby are less likely to have stress and more likely to have more meaningful lives.Most importantly，a hobby is just something you do to make you happy. I hate to break it to you，but we all have a long lifetime of work and stress ahead of us. It will make things much easier if we can practice the piano or make some collections after work.Sure，it's not easy to start a new hobby while going to school，but it will likely never get easier than it is right now. So think about the thing that youhave always wanted to try but were too embarrassed or busy or whatever. You never know，you might become the world's next great people. If not，you'll at least be a little more well-rounded，more interesting and less stressed.5．What does Paragraph 1 mainly show?A．All people should learn to relax.B．Today's people have little time for hobbies.C．People in the past took their hobbies seriously.D．People's lives have been negatively affected by media.6．What does the author think of hobbies?A．They may take up too much time.B．They can help us enjoy a better life.C．They sometimes can bring us stress.D．They should make us famous one day.7．What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph mean?A．We should start a hobby now.B．Starting a new hobby isn't easy.C．We'd better develop a hobby at school.D．Developing a hobby will get easier as time goes by.8．What's the author's purpose in writing the text?A．To introduce some helpful hobbies.B．To encourage us to have a hobby.C．To tell us how to create a happy life.D．To tell us how to find our potential.Ⅱ.阅读七选五Having good study habits is key to success in college. 1 To begin making the change，you need to get organized to study.Create a fixed study space. Find a quiet space in your room or somewhere on campus where you can focus. Studying in the same place every day makes your brain combine a certain environment with work. 2Find a regular time for studying. If you study at the same time each day，your brain will be prepared for learning when you sit down. Review your schedule and see when you have free time. 3 You can study during gaps between classes or in the evening after your classes are done for the day.4 Make sure you have everything you need to study at your study space.If you're studying in a place in your home，keep things like your books，pencils，pens，and paper in that area. If you go out to study，you can take a book bag and keep all your studying materials stored there.Avoid distractions (干扰)．When you prepare your study space，it's important to keep it away from distractions. Remove any technologies that will take your mind off your work，like your iPad. 5 Besides，keep other distracting materials such as outside reading，away from your study area.A．Organize your materials.B．Start with difficult material first.C．Your room may be an ideal place for studying.D．This will help you quickly get into the state of study.E．Schedule an hour or two for studying during those times each day.F．However，many students find their former study habits are not suitable for college.G．You can also use apps to stop distracting websites like Facebook while you're studying.Ⅲ.语法填空I was only in China for about 4 months last year. I stayed in Shanghai and visited some other cities 1.(include) Beijing. While the price feels a bit too much for a high speed train，the Chinese infrastructure (基础建设) is 2. (true) far ahead of any other developing country and even some developed ones in Europe. The train stations are as big 3. airports：almost everything in 4. (they) is like airports. They have all the high standards of airports but without the waiting time. The trains are just like those from Germany or France，5. are clean，modern and highly developed and run at very high speeds. It is about 1，200 kms from Shanghai to Beijing，and each high speed train 6. (take) around 4 and a half hours to reach its destination and 7. are more than 2 trains every hour，each day.I also had the experience of 8.(sit) in Maglev (磁力悬浮列车) in Shanghai. There is a public maglev train that runs from Shanghai city to its international airport. The 9.(distant) from the city to the airport is 40 kms and the speed of the train is 430 kms/hr. It took us just around 6 mins 10. (cover)40 kms and it felt rather smooth.答案及解析Ⅰ.阅读理解A【语篇解读】　本文为说明文，话题是社会文化类。

They said plants had been the key object of study be cause their reaction to climate change could have an effect on food chains and ecosystem services.The study, published on the Nature website, uses the findings from plant life cycle studies and experiments across four c ontinents and 1,634 species. It found that some experiments had underestimated（低估）the speed of flowering by 8.5 times and leafing by 4 times.“Across all species, the experiments under-predicted the speed of the advance — for both leafing and flo wering — that results from temperature increases,” the study said.The design of future experiments may need to be improved to better predict how plants will react to climate change, it sai d.Plants are necessary for life on the Earth. They are the bas e of the food chain, using photosynthesis（光合作用）to produce sugar from carbon dioxide and water.

高中英语真题：Unit3AtasteofEnglishhumour_16

Unit3AtasteofEnglishhumour李仕才一、阅读理解。

Two of the saddest words in the English language are “if only”. I live my life with the goal of never having to say those words , because they convey regret, lost opportunities, mistakes, an d disappointment.My father is famous in our family for saying, “Take the extra m inute to do it right.” I always try to live by the “extra minute” rul e. When my children were young and likely to cause accident s, I always thought about what I could do to avoid an “if only ”moment, whether it was something minor like moving a cup fu ll of hot coffee away from the edge of a computer, or somethin g that required a little more work such as taping padding (衬垫) onto the sharp corners of a glass coffee table.I don’t only avoid those “if only” moments when it comes to sa fety. It’s equally important to avoid “if only” in our personal rel ationships. We all know people who lost a loved one and regr etted that they had foregone an opportunity to say “I love you” or “I forgive you”. When my father announced he was going t o the eye doctor across from my office on Good Friday, I toldhim that it was a holiday for my company and I wouldn’t be th ere. But then I thought about the fact that he’s 84 years old an d I realized that I shouldn’t give up an opportunity to see him.I called him and told him I had decided to go to work on my da y off after all.I know there will still be occasions when I have to say “if only”about something, but my life is definitely better because of my policy of doing everything possible to avoid that eventuality(可能发生的事). And even though it takes an extra minute to do something right, or it occasionally takes an hour or two in my busy sche dule to make a personal connection, I know that I’m doing the right thing. I’m buying myself peace of mind and that’s the bes t kind of insurance for my emotional well-being.1.Which of the following is an example of the “extra minute” ru le ?A. Start the car the moment everyone is seated.B. Leave the room for a minute with the iron working.C. Wait for an extra minute so that the steak tastes better.D. Move an object out of the way before it trips someone.2.The author decided to go to her office on Good Friday to __ ________.A. keep her appointment with the eye doctorB. meet her father who was already an old manC. join in the holiday celebration of the companyD. finish her work before the deadline approaching3.The underlined word “foregone” in Paragraph 3 is closed in meaning to “_________”.A. abandonedB. lackedC. avoidedD. wasted4.What is the best title for the passage ?A. The Emotional Well-beingB. The Two Saddest WordsC. The Most Useful RuleD. The Peace of Mind【文章大意】这篇文章主要讲解的是作者对于最悲哀的两个单词if only 的理解及看法。

Unit 3 A taste of English humour第Ⅰ卷第一部分阅读理解(共两节，满分40分)第一节(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。

ANot all memories are sweet.Some people spend all their lives trying to forget bad experiences.Violence and traffic accidents can leave people with terrible physical and emotional scars.Often they relive these experiences in nightmares(噩梦)．Now American researchers think they are close to developing a pill，which will help people forget bad memories.The pill is designed to be taken immediately after a frightening experience.They hope it might reduce，or possibly wipe out the effect of painful memories.In November，experts tested a drug on people in the US and France.The drug stops the body releasing(释放)chemicals that fix memories in the brain.So far the research has suggested that only the emotional effects of memories may be reduced，not that the memories are wiped out.The research has caused a great deal of argument.Some think it is a bad idea，while others support it.Supporters say it could lead to pills that prevent or treat soldiers’ troubling memories after war. They say that there are many people who suffer from terrible memories.“Some memories can ruin people’s lives.They come back to you when you don’t want to have them in a daydream or nightmare.They usually come with very painful emotions，” said Roger Pitman，a professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School.“This could relieve a lot of that suffering.”But those who are against the research say that maybe the pill can change people’s memories and that changing memories is very dangerous because memories give us our identity.They also help us all avoid the mistakes of the past.“All of us can think of bad events in our lives that were terrible at the time but make us who we are.I’m not sure whether we want to wipe those memories out，”said Rebecca Dresser，a medical ethicist.1．The passage is mainly about .A．a new medical inventionB．a new research on the pillC．a way of wiping out painful memoriesD．an argument about the research on the pill答案 D解析主旨大意题。

I would have to ring doorbells, address adults with self-confidence, and persuade the by sayingthat no one, no atter how poor, could afford to be without the SaturdayEvening Post in the hoe.One day, I told y other I’d changed y ind. I didn’t want to ake asuccess in the agazine business.“If you think you can change your ind like this,” she replied, “you’ll becoe a good-for-nothing.” She insisted that, as soon as school was over, I should start ringing doorbells, selling agazines.

A new study shows that black people and Native Hawaiians are ore likely to develop lung cancer fro soking. It copared their risk to whites, Japanese-Aericans and Latinos.Researchers at the University of Southern California and the University of Hawaii did the new study. The New England Journal of edicine published the findings. The eight-year research studied ore than 180,000 people. They included present and forer sokers and people who never soked. Alost 2.000 people in the study developed lung cancer.Researchers say genetics(遗传学) ight help explain the racial and ethnic （种族的） differences. There could be differences in how people's bodies react to soke. But environental influences, including the way people soke, could also ake a difference.African-Aericans and Latinos in the study are reported soking the fewest cigarettes per day. Whites are the heaviest sokers. But the scientists pointout that blacks have been reported to breathe cigarette soke ore deeply than white sokers. This could fill their lungs with ore of the cheicals in tobacco that cause cancer.Scientists know that soe diseases effect different groups differently. And soe drug copanies have begun to develop racially targeted(针对) edicines. Last June, the United States Food and Drug Adinistration approved a drug designed to treat heart failure in black patients. The nae is BiDil. The agency called it "a step toward the proise of personalized edicine."61．Which of the following orders is fro higher to lower risk of having lung cancer?A．Whites―Native HawaiiansB．Africans―Aericans―LatinosC．Asians―Native HawaiiansD．Africans―Aericans―Native Hawaiians62．Researchers agree that it is that ay probably deterine black people’s risk of lung cancer.A．the larger aount of soking than white peopleB．the living style or habit of the blacksC．the depth of cigarette soke into their lungsD．the physical strength to react to cigarette soke63．People in the new study are ade up of .A．heavy sokers in AericaB．the black and white peopleC．the Asians and HawaiiansD．sokers and non-sokers64．The production of BiDil referred to in the last paragraph is to .A．explain different races react to soe diseases differentlyB．tell the readers that racial differences exist in sokersC．show a big step people have taken in the edicine areaD．support the idea that it is easy for blacks to have cancers65．Which of the following stateents is TRUE according to the author?A．The way of soking ay increase the risk of lung cancer.B．Race has nothing to do with the risk of having a lung cancer.C．The research was started by the New England Journal of edicine.D．The risk of lung cancer lies I how uch a person sokes.C"The world's oceans are slowly getting ore acidic．”say scientists．The researchers fro California report that the change is taking place in response to higher levels of carbon dioxide in the atosphere.The lowering of the waters’pH value is not great at the oent but could cause a serious threat to current ocean life if it continues, they warn. Ken Caldeira and ichael Wickett, fro the Lawrence Liverore National Laboratory, report their concerns in the journal Nature.Increasing use of oil fuels eans ore carbon dioxide is going into the air, and ost of it will eventually be absorbed by seawater. Once in the water, it reacts to for carbonic acid. Scientists believe that the oceans have already becoe slightly ore acidic over the last century.These researchers have tried to predict what will happen in the future by cobining what we know about the history of the oceans with coputer odels of cliate change．"This level of acidity will get uch ore extree in the future if we continue releasing COZ into the atosphere," said Dr Caldeira. "And we predict the aount of future acidity will exceed（超过）anything we have seen over the last several hundred illion years, let alone perhaps after rare disastrous events such as asteroid（小1j-%+.'_) ipacts．”However, it is not absolutely clear what that eans for ocean life．ost organiss live near the surface, where the greatest pH change would be expected to occur, but deep-ocean life fors ay be ore sensitive to pH changes．Coral reefs and other organiss whose shells contain calciu carbonate（小行星) ay be particularly affected if the water's acidity levels keep going up, the tea predict. They could find it uch ore difficult to build these structures in water with a lower pH.In recent years soe people have suggested storing carbon dioxide fro power stations in the deep ocean as a way of dealing with global waring．But Dr Caldeira said that such a strategy should now be re-considered. "Previously, ost experts had looked at ocean absorption of carbon dioxide as a good thing一because in releasing CO2 into the atosphere we war the planet, and when CO2, is absorbed by the ocean, it reduces the aount of greenhouse waring.”66 ．The ocean is becoing ore acidic due to＿．A，the lower water pH value B．the waring atosphereC ．the higher level of COZ in the air D．the increasing use of oil fuels67． According to Dr Caldeira,＿．A ．ocean absorption of carbon dioxide is a good thingB ．ore oil fuels will be used in the near futureC ．scientists ay predict cliate changes with coputer odelsD ．the future situation of the aount of acidity is extreely serious68．If the water's acidity level keeps rising,＿．A ．ocean life whose structures contain calciu carbonate ay be affectedB ．the waters’pH value will becoe higher and higherC ．organiss living near the surface are ore sensitive to pH changesD ．soe disastrous events will occur ore often than before69．ost experts once believed storing carbon dioxide in the ocean would reduce＿．A ．the COZ absorbed by the oceanB ．the aount of greenhouse waringC ．the acidity of the oceanD ．the gradul release Of CO270．The purpose of this passage is to＿．A ．show people the findings of a research teaB ．infor people of how acid the ocean is nowC ．introduce Dr Caldeira and his tea's researchD ．warn people of the higher level of COZDAs you ove around your hoe, take a good look at the things you have.

Your bedroo drawers will befilled with alost three ties as any clothes as you need. You alost certainly own a car and possibly a hoe coputer, holiday abroad at least once a year and eat out at least once a week.Now, perhaps, ore than ever before, people are wondering what life is all about, and what it is for. Seeking aterial success is beginning to trouble large nubers of people around the world. They feel that the long hours work culture to ake ore oney is eating up their lives, leaving the very little tie or energy for faily or pasties. any are turning to other ways of living and downshifting is one of the. Six percent of workers in Britain took the decision to downshift last year.One couple who downshifted is Daniel and Liz. They used to work in central London. He was a newspaper reporter and she used to work for an international bank. They would go to work by train every day fro their large house in the suburbs, leaving their two children with a nanny. ost evenings Daniel wouldn’t get hoe until eight or nine o’clock and nearly twice a onth he would have to fly to New York for eetings. They both earned a large aount of oney but began to feel that life was passing the by.Nowadays, they run a far in the ountains of Wales. “I always wanted to have a fa r then,” says Daniel, “and we took alost a year to ake the decision to downshift. It’s taken soe getting used to, but it’s been worth it. We have to think twice now about spending oney on car repairs and we no longer have any holidays. However, I think it’s ade us stronger as a faily, and the children are a lot happier.Liz, however, is not quite sure. “I used to enjoy y job, even though it was hard work and long hours. I’ not really a country girl, but I suppose I’ gradually getting used to looking after the anials. One thing I do like, though, is being able to see ore of y children. y advice for other people wanting to do the sae is not to think about it too uch or you ight not do it at all.”71．The passage tells us that .A．people seldo work long hours to ake oneyB．people hardly buy ore things than necessaryC．people are sure everything they own is in the right placeD．people realize there is ore to life than just aking oney72．When Daniel was a reporter he ___.A．lived in central London B．disliked his jobC．issed his children D．was well paid73．Daniel and Liz both agree that the ove to the far ____.A．was easy to organize B．has iproved faily lifeC．was extreely expensive D．has been a total success74．What does the author ean by saying“the long hours work culture to ake ore oney is eating up their lives” in the second paragraph ?A．People work long hours to earn their living.B．To ake ore oney through hard work is the ai of people’s life.C．Long hours of hard work occupy too uch of people’s life.D．People spent too uch tie and oney eating eals.75．The underlined word “downshifting” in the second paragraph refers to _________.A．repairing your car by yourselfB．spending oney carefullyC．oving out to the countryside to live a sipler and better lifeD．living in a big house in the suburbs and dining out once a week第Ⅱ卷（共45分）第四部分书面表达（共两节，满分45分）第一节表达（共5小题；每小题3分，满分15分）xkb1.co阅读下面的短，并根据短后的要求答题（请注意问题后的字数要求）。

And because schools with high minority enrollments（入学）generally place a greater reliance（相信）on scores from these tests，the study finds，there tends to be "a gap in instructional emphases between high and low minority classrooms that differs from our national concern for the quality of education. "George F. Madaus and his colleagues at Boston College analyzed not only the six most widely used national standardized tests，but also the tests designed to accompany（go with）the four most commonly used science and math texts in fourth-grade，eighth-grade，and high-school classrooms. Though curriculum（teaching program）experts argue that schools should place greater emphasis on problem solving and reasoning，the new study shows that the tests focus on lower-level skills—primarily mechanical memorization of routine formulas（公式）.Researchers surveyed more than 2，200 math and science instructors, interviewing in depth some 300 teachers and administrators. Especially in schools with high minority enrollments，teachers reported feeling pressured to help students perform well on these tests. Some states judge schools and some schools determine teacher assignments（工作安排）based on students' test scores."With so much worry，"Madaus says，"teachers feel forced to focus their instruction on drilling what the tests will measure—at the expense of the more valuable，higher-level skills. "56. The author of this article states that _____ .A. the tests don't affect teaching in most elementary and high schoolsB. the science and math teaching is influenced by the present testsC. no study is performed on tests for the National Science FoundationD. the United States exerts a strong influence on science and math teaching57. It can be inferred that in high minority classrooms _____ .A. the students can not get high score from the testsB. scores from the tests are not importantC. instructional emphases are unfavorableD. teaching doesn't focus on the quality of education58. According to the second paragraph，the study has discovered that _____ .A. emphasis of teaching is on problem solving and reasoningB. curriculum is good for national standardized testsC. the tests mainly center around the memorization of some formulasD. routine formulas are not useful for students to memorize59. According to Madaus' opinion，teachers are forced to _____ .A. evaluate（评估）students' skills every yearB. suffer so much worry on the textsC. teach what will be testedD. focus their instruction on useful drillingsBEveryone has got two personalities—the one that is shown to the world and the other that is secret and real. You don't show your secret personality when you're awake because you can control your behavior，but when you're asleep，your sleeping position shows the real you. In a normal night，of course，people frequently change their position. The important position is the one that you go to sleep in.If you go to sleep on your back，you're a very open person. You normally trust people and you are easily influenced by fashion or new ideas. You don't like to upset people，so you never express your real feelings. You're quite shy and you aren't very confident.If you sleep on your stomach，you are a rather secretive（不坦率的）person. You worry a lot and you're always easily upset. You're very stubborn（顽固的），but youaren't very ambitious. You usually live for today not for tomorrow. This means that you enjoy having a good time.If you sleep curled up（卷曲），you are probably a very nervous person. You have a low opinion of yourself and so you're often defensive. You're shy and youdon't normally like meeting people. You prefer to be on your own. You're easily hurt.If you sleep on your side，you have usually got a well-balanced personality. You know your strengths and weaknesses. You're usually careful. You have a confident personality. You sometimes feel anxious，but you don't often get depressed. You always say what you think even if it annoys people.60. According to the writer，you naturally show your secret and real personality_____.A. only in a normal nightB. only when you go to sleepC. only when you refuse to show yourself to the worldD. only when you change sleeping position61. Which is NOT mentioned in the second paragraph about a person's personality？A. He or she is always open with others.B. He or she always likes new ideas earlier than others.C. He or she is always easily upset.D. He or she tends to believe in others.62. Point out which sentence is used to show the personality of a person who is used to sleeping on his or her stomach？A. He or she is careful not to offend others.B. He or she doesn't want to stick to his or her opinion.C. He or she can't be successful in any business.D. He or she likes to bring others happiness.63. Maybe you don't want to make friends with a person who sleeps curled up. Why？A. He or she would rather be alone than communicate with you.B. He or she is rarely ready to help you.C. He or she prefers staying at home to going out.D. He or she wouldn't like to get help from you.64. It appears that the writer tends to think highly of the person who sleeps on one side because ______ .A. he or she always shows sympathy for peopleB. he or she is confident，but not stubbornC. he or she has more strengths than weaknessesD. he or she often considers annoying peopleCAmerican magician David Blaine left the glass box in which he had lived for 44 days without food on October 19. 2003. Hundreds of people came to watch the end of his starvation experiment, which has become one of London's main tourist attractions.Looking thinner and darker, 30 year-old Blaine was taken out of his box over the River Thames（泰晤士河）and immediately went to hospital. He was then slowly reintroduced to food, a process (过程)doctors say could be life threatening. He had been drinking only water since September 5.A native of Brooklyn, New York, Blaine first became known as a street magician in the early 1990s. He soon found himself doing magic tricks in bars for the likes of American actor Leonardo DiCaprio and his super model friends.Over the last decade Blaine has become famous with a combination of breathtaking magic and clever tricks aimed at getting a lot of attention.In 1999, he was buried in a coffin (棺材) for one week and, in 2000, he spent 62 hours in a giant block of ice. Last year he stood on top of a 25-meter pillar(柱子) in the center of New York for 35 hours before jumping into a pile of boxes."I think a lot of people are unable to accept that they're able to do what they can do," he said. "They don't realize we can survive. The human being is an amazing creation."But he seems to have suffered from spending so long in the glass box. He said that at times he was unable to see, had serious back pains and lost his sense of taste. 65. It is ___ for David Blaine to eat food after such a long starvation.A. pleasantB. deliciousC. dangerousD. important66. Having spent such a long time in the glass box, he suffered the following EXCEPT that ____.A. he had become blindB. he had serious back painsC. he lost his sense of tasteD. he was in weak health67. Which of the following can best describe David Blaine?A. SeriousB. AdventurousC. MadD. Crazy68. Which of the following is NOT true of David Blaine?A. Blaine immediately went to hospital after he was taken out of his box.B. Blaine was born and brought up in England.C. In Blaine's opinion, people can create a wonder.D. Blaine didn't have any food for 44 days.DHow can you find out what is going on inside a person' s body without opening the patient up? Regular X-rays can show a lot. CAT scans can show even more. They can give three-dimensional(三维) view of body organs(器官).What is a CAT scan? CAT stands for Computerized Axial Tomography(层面X 线照相术). It is a special X-ray machine that gets a 360 - degree picture of a small area of a patient's body.Doctors use X-rays to study and examine diseases and injuries within the body. X-rays can find foreign objects inside the body or to take pictures of some organs inside if special things as dyes or special liquids are added to the organs to beX-rayed.A CAT scanner, however, uses a beam(光束) of X-rays to give a cross-sectional view of a particular part of the body. A fine beam of X-rays is scanned across the body and circled around the patient from many different angles(角度). A computer analyzes(分析) the information from each angle and produces a clear cross-sectional picture on the screen. This picture is then photographed for later use. Severalcross-sections, taken one after another, can give a clear "photo" of the entire body or of any body organs. The newest CAT scanners can even give a clear picture of active,moving organs just as a fast-action camera can "stop the action" giving clear pictures of what appear only mistily(模糊) to the eye. And because of the 360 - degree pictures, CAT scans show 3-dimensional views of organs in a manner that was once only seen during surgery or autopsy (examining a dead body).69. According to the first two paragraphs, doctors can see the inside of a patient's body by ______.A. giving the patient an operationB. checking body organsC. getting a 360-degree picture of a small area of a patient's bodyD. examining the CAT70. From the last paragraph, we can infer that ______.A. the newest pictures become more mistyB. many pictures can be taken at the same timeC. the information about the scanned patient is not highly valuedD. some pictures of the scanned parts of the body are developed for furtherexaminations in the future71. The best title of this passage might be ______.A. Modern X-rayB. Three-dimensional ViewC. Fast - moving CameraD. CAT ScanEThe impression you make at the beginning of an interview is very important. Employers often decide to hire someone in the first three minutes of the interview. They judge you by your appearance，attitude(态度)and manners.A friendly smile when you walk into the room is important. A smile shows a confident（自信的）and positive attitude.When you introduce yourself，make eye contact with the interviewer. Some interviewers offer a handshake. Others don't.Try to be as natural as possible. But pay attention to your body language. The way you sit，walk，gesture，use your voice and show feelings on your face is all part of your body language. It makes the interviewer know how you feel about yourselfand the situation you are in. Are you feeling positively about yourself? Your abilities? Your interest in the job?Speak clearly and loudly enough. Show interest and enthusiasm in your voice. When you speak，look at the interviewer. Also，don't say negative things about yourself，or former employer.Listen to questions carefully. If you don't understand a question，ask the interviewer to repeat or explain："I'm sorry，but I didn't catch that.""I'm not sure exactly what you mean."Almost everyone is nervous in a job interview. Interviewers know that. They don't expect you to be totally calm and relaxed. But they expect you to try to control your nervousness. They expect you to show confidence in your ability to do the job.At the end of the interview，thank the interviewer for her or his time.It's a good idea to send a short thank-you letter right after the interview，or deliver it by hand.Phone the company if you have not heard anything after one week. Ask if they have made a decision about the job.Good luck！72. It can be inferred from the passage that ______.A. you should always put on a smile when meeting the employerB. you should stand still with respect before the employerC. the first impression is very important in an interviewD. employers understand and like employees' nervousness73. Why should we pay attention to our body language?A. Because it can help us win the employer's positive impression.B. Because it can help us feel about the employer.C. Because it is needed by our employer.D. Because we need it to improve our feelings.74. The main purpose of the passage is ______.A. to give you some advice on the art of finding a jobB. to tell right from wrong about job interviewsC. to explain why we should do something about an interviewD. to suggest not being shy in an interview75. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A. A Friendly SmileB. Making a Good ExpressionC. Don't Be NervousD. Sending a Thank-You Letter第四部分：写作第一节：短文改错此题要求改正所给短文中的错误。

I had a quarrel with my wife and my son didn’t get up on time for school again. However, it was not because of these but because of the following fact that I was angry. We had been out of milk for a while and I could only find three dollars to get a small carton of it (which would last only a day or two).After eating some bread, I was on the bus to work when I saw a little “Donate a Ride” envelope up front. I read that some of those donations would go to women at abuse shelters(避难所) so that they could get to doctors’ appointments and court dates, etc. I thought I could donate the three dollars in my pocket I had. However, I needed to drink some milk before work, so I changed my decision. I decided to keep the three dollars to buy some milk.Well, since I made that decision, I continued to feel bad and regretted my decision. When I was getting off the bus at the bus stop and was ready to make the short walk to work, I changed my mind again. I decided I could go another week without milk and I would donate that three dollars to “Donate a Ride”.After I finished making that decision, I felt a lot better having done so. That was better than drinking milk in the morning. It is worth doing something when you can because it will make you happy.41.The author was in a bad mood yesterday morning because____.A. he had had a quarrel with his wifeB. his home had been out of milkC. he refused to donate his moneyD. his son didn’t get up on time for school again42.The purpose of “Donate a Ride” was to help____.A. people pay to ride the busB. people buy milkC. women at abuse sheltersD. passengers know the bus stops43.The author decided not to donate the money at first because he____.A. had milk for a weekB. needed money on his way to workC. had ever donated money beforeD. needed the money to buy milk44.The moment the author saw the donation envelope, he____.A. wanted to put his three dollars into itB. put all his money into itC. decided not to donate anythingD. ignored it45.The best title for this passage would be____.A. Money for MilkB. Drinking Milk Is ImportantC. Donation vs. MilkD. How to Help OthersBA year ago, I paid no attention to English idioms, though my teacher emphasized(强调) the importance again and again. But soon, the importance of English idioms was shown in an amusing experience.One day, I happened to meet an Englishman on the road, and soon we began to talk. As I was talking about how I was studying English, the foreigner seemed to be astonished. Gently shaking his head, and shrugging his shoulders, he said, “You don’t say!” “You don’t say!” I was puzzled. I thought perhaps this was not an appropriate topic(适当的话题). “Well, I’d better change the topic.” So I said to him. “Well, shall we talk about the Great Wall? By the way, have you ever been there?” “Certainly, everyone back home will laugh at me if I leave China without seeing it. It is magnificent.” He was deep in thought when I began to talk like a tourist guide. “The Great Wall is one of the wonders in the world. We are very proud of it.” Soon I was interrupted again by his words: “You don’t say!” I couldn’t help asking, “Why do you ask me not to talk about it?” “Well, I didn’t request you to do so,” he answered, greatly surprised. I said, “Didn’t you say ‘You don’t say?’” Hearing this, the Englishman laughed to tears. He began to explain, “‘You don’t say’ actually means ‘really’! It is an expression of surprise. Perhaps you don’t pay attention to English idioms.” Only then did I know I had made a fool of myself. Since then I have been more careful with idiomatic expressions. Remember: what the English teachers said is always right to us students.46. A year ago, I paid no attention to English idioms because____.A. English idioms were not importantB. I was not careful with English idiomsC. my teacher didn’t emphasize the importance of themD. I had no interest in them47. At first, on hearing “You don’t say” I thought the foreigner meant____.A. he was not interested in the topicB. he was only interested in the Great WallC. I had talked too muchD. I had to stop talking48. The underlined word “amusing” in the first paragraph probably means____.A. interestingB. importantC. terribleD. unlucky49. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. The Englishman left China without seeing the Great Wall.B. The Englishman wanted to see the Great Wall after I talked about it.C. The Englishman wanted me to act as his guide.D. The Englishman visited the Great Wall and thought it worth visiting.50. After the Englishman explained the idiom,____.A. I thought the Englishman had made me a foolB. the Englishman became a real foolC. I felt very sillyD. I became more careful in everything四、单词拼写（共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分）51.

高中英语真题：Unit3AtasteofEnglishhumour_19

Unit3AtasteofEnglishhumourⅠ.阅读理解AWhen Danny Wallace, 26, got bored, he put an ad on the Wor ld Wide Web reading simply，“Join Me. Send a passport photo.” A year and a half later his east London flat is the headquarters for a global internetbase d “club” whose members carry out good deeds for strangers e very Friday.It's not common for people in to talk to strangers. If you see s omeone struggling with something, part of the brain goes “I w ant to help”. But the trained part of the brain says, “They will t hink you are mad or going to mug them”， so you walk away. Join Me now has about 3,000 members around the world who do an act of kindness every Friday. For example, I'm usually out on Friday so I go for one of the standard acts—the unexpected cup of coffee. You might be sitting in a cafe a nd see an old man in the corner drinking coffee or tea, and yo u walk up with another cup of whatever they are drinking, and say, “I've bought you a coffee” and walk away. It's a pleasureto see the look of surprise on their faces. There can be some suspicion, but I think that was mostly in the early days when I didn't know how to do it properly. I would walk up quite nervou sly like I was doing something wrong and I didn't know when t o leave. In the end, I learned through __trial_and_error__. So metimes it worked, and other times it didn't. I discovered that you have to walk up with confidence and humour and not “get in their faces”. You say, “This is for you”， then you go. It's hi tandrun kindness. And there is no point in doing it halfheartedl y. You've got to do it because you really mean it.Join Me is without geographical boundaries, but there are quit e a few members in , and such stories about things happen o n the underground or on the buses. One lady got on the bus a nd put a ￡10 note down and said, “That's for me and the next nine people.” So at every stop, anyone who got on was told it was paid for. A lot of people were doing this sort of thing any way. For them it's an excuse or reason to do something nice f or a complete stranger, and it gives them the confidence to w alk up and start chatting.语篇导读本文为记叙文，简述了公益组织“Join Me”的成立和发展，介绍了作者作为成员之一，每周五做一件善事的经历，最后说明了这一组织存在的意义。

Unit3AtasteofEnglishhumourⅠ.阅读理解A(2017·9月浙江金丽衢12校高三联考)My Dear Stuart,We are overjoyed at your generously long letter.We have bee n rather worried about you since your reticent Xmas card from Spain.We thought that your indignation at Fascist (Natsi) terr ors might have made you join the Spanish Republican army o n leaving Oxford.In that case,the world would certainly gain a hero,but we might (O horrible thought!) lose a friend.You can i magine our relief to hear from you again.We shall be here for another four or five months yet,and we s hall sail home in September.Not that we have homes to return to!Our houses,spared by the shell-fire,have been looted and gutted of all their valuable contents. Our families have taken refuge in mountains.My wife lost her mother,and I myself have no hope of getting jobs in China.Ho wever,one’s lot is with one’s own people;I don’t mind suffering a bit.The revolution of the Fortune’s wheel might bring us up, and,as Goethe (歌德,著名诗人) was fond of saying,abwarten Sie.Yes,Stuart,I have been working entirely on my own.I have trie d to read French literature systematically downwards,beginnin g with Villon,and already got as far as the mid-nineteenth century.I have also read the German romantics.I a m reading Taine’s novel.Besides,I have not neglected my Eng lish and Chinese studies.Oh,my baby daughter is bursting fat.She already boasts of six teeth (each tooth meaning a week or so of worries and sleepl essness on her part as well as our own).She is very naughty and self-willed.She will be able to walk a little next month.My wife sends you her best wishes.Write to me at your earlies t convenience.Yours ever,Chung-shu Tchi’ienP.S.My wife wants me to tell you that the baby is really “her fa ther’s daughter”.She loves nothing so much as books—to tear and nibble at,certainly not to read.She throws away he r toys to grab at the books we happen to be reading.【语篇导读】本文是一篇钱钟书1938年留学巴黎时写给外国友人司徒亚的书信,司徒亚是钱钟书在牛津大学的同学。
