Unit 1 Living wellⅠ.阅读理解(共15小题;每一小题2分,总分为30分)阅读如下短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最优选项。

AMy mother is the only living person who has never used email to send a letter.In all her life,she has never turned on a computer,opened an email account and touched the Internet.She has a phobia(恐惧症) about technology.When Dad was deadly sick she began to use a cell phone.Mom is far from the information age.She likes the way of her living.In 1955 she met her new husband.Since then she has lived in Silicon Valley.The man is an expert who is rich in computer technology.Mom is still that farm girl,and she is proudest of it.She sees her friends and her life “real〞.She shows no interest in the information and technology life.My mother experienced Depression,World War Ⅱ and the Co ld War.She enjoyed country music on TheSonsofthePioneers,a Canadian broadcast.But she had no way to listen to the radio.In the age when a lot of people were moved by Churchill for the first time with radio broadcasts,she only experienced them monthly.In her early twenties,Mom had worked in the field before she was a wife.Thus family and church became her life's center.She was never really interested in television,though I think she enjoyed a few of the TV series we had watched before,like AllintheFamily puters,the Internet and mobile phones are simply not parts of her life.Mom disagrees with the opinion that technology can make the life easier.In her life,she sees online music,email and information which are “unreal〞.However,I can partly understand.I like to read the books in my schoolbag.And also I am a child who enjoys the online books and music.I've written down my love­hate feelings with my computer.Mom's technophobia surely plays a role here,but it works for her.She's the happiest as she is.【语篇导读】本文作者讲述了自己母亲不同寻常的生活方式。

ADr Dian Fossey,one of the world's leading women scientists,had a remarkable career.The work she devoted her life to protecting and studying the mountain gorillas (大猩猩)of Africa --- has proved highly effective and has resulted in the steady (平稳的)increase of this most endangered great apes.Fossey made her first trip to Africa in 1963.Three years later,she returned to Africa to begin a long-term study of the mountain gorillas.She set up camp in the Democratic Republic of Congo but moved to Rwanda because of political reasons in 1967.She established her "Karisoke" Research Centre camp on September 24,1967.Fossey's aims were to study gorilla ecology (生态学)and social organization.She found that in order to achieve this,she needed to recognize individual gorillas,which required that the gorillas get used to her presence (出现).By copying gorillas' behaviour and sounds,Fossey began to gain their trust,and in 1970 an adult male gorilla she had named "Peanuts" reached out to touch her hand.Close observations over thousands of hours enabled Fossey to gainthe gorillas' trust and bring forth new knowledge about their behaviour.Stories and photographs of her work were published in National Geographic Magazine and elsewhere.In 1977,one of Fossey's favorite gorillas,Digit,was killed by poachers and she established the Digit Fund lo he p raise money for gorilla protection efforts in the same year.On December 26,1985,Fossey was murdered while going back to her house in Karisoke.Her body was discovered near the research centre.Most probably,Dian Fossey had been killed by the poachers she'd fought against.On her tombstone (墓碑)"No one loved gorillas more …"In 1988,the life and the work of Fossey were made into a movie based on her story.(1)Why does the author say that Dr Dian Fossey had a remarkable career?___A.Because she travelled all over the world.B Because she liked to play with gorillasC.Because she studied gorilla ecologyD.Because she made great apes increase steadily.(2)Which of the following shows the right time order of the events in Fossey's life?___a.She established the Digit Fund.b.Her story was shown in a movie.c.She was killed probably by the poachers.d.She established her "Karisoke" centre.A.a.d.c.bB.a.c.d.bC.d.c.b.aD.d.a.c.b(3)The underlined word "poachers" in Paragraph 5 probably refers to people who___.A.sell drugs against the lawB.hunt animals against the lawC.hate successful peopleD.like to do harm lo people(4)From the words on Fossey's tombstone,we can infer that___.A.Fossey was the person who loved gorillas mostB.after Fossey died,no one loves gorillasC.Fossey was the first one to study gorillasD.everybody loves gorillas as Fossey didBI work with V olunteers for Wildlife, a rescue and education organization at Bailey Arboretum in Locust Valley. Trying to help injured, displaced or sick creatures can be heartbreaking;survival is never certain. However, when it works, it is simply beautiful.I got a rescue call from a woman in Muttontown. She had found a young owl(猫头鹰)on the ground. When Iarrived, I saw a 2- to 3-week-old owl. It had already been placed in a carrier for safety.I examined the chick(雏鸟)and it seemed fine. If I could locate the nest, I might have been able to put it back, but no luck. My next work was to construct a nest and anchor it in a tree.The homeowner was very helpful. A wire basket was found. I put some pine branches into the basket to make this nest safe and comfortable.I placed the chick in the nest, and it quickly calmed down.Now all that was needed were the parents, but they were absent. I gave the homeowner a recording of the hunger screams of owl chicks. These advertise the presence of chicks to adults;they might also encourage our chick to start calling as well. I gave the owner as much information as possible and headed home to see what news the night might bring.A nervous night to be sure, but sometimes the spirits of nature smile on us all!The homeowner called to say that the parents had responded tothe recordings. I drove over and saw the chick in the nest looking healthy and active. And it was accompanied in the nest by the greatest sight of all—LUNCH!The parents had done their duty and would probably continue to do so.24.What is unavoidable in the author’s rescue work according to paragraph 1?A.Efforts made in vain.B.Getting injured in his work.C.Feeling uncertain about his future.D.Creatures forced out of their homes.25.Why was the author called to Muttontown?A.To rescue a woman.B.To take care of a woman.C.To look at a baby owl.D.To cure a young owl.26.What made the chick calm down?A.A new nest.B.Some food.C.A recording.D.Its parents.27.How would the author feel about the outcome of the event?A.It’s unexpected.B.It’s beautiful.C.It’s humorous.D.It’s discouraging.CIn the 1940s, Lena Horne was the first African--American in Hollywood to sign a long -term contract with a major movie studio. Her deal with MGM stated that she would never play the role of a servant. During this period, African--American actors were mostly limited to playing servants or African natives.But this refusal also limited her movie career. Horne was generally only offered the role of a nightclub singer. Her characters did not interact with white characters in these movies. This way, her part could be cut from the version of the movie that played in Southern States.Lena Horne later wrote that the movie producers did not make her into a servant, but they did not make her into anything else, either. Lena Horne once said that World War Two helped make her a star. She was popular with both black and white servicemen. She sang on army radio programs and traveled to perform for the troops. During one event, she noted that German prisoners of war were permitted to sit closer to the stage than black soldiers. These experiences led to Lena Horne's work in the Civil Rights Movement.She protested racial separation at the hotels where she performed. She took action so that she and her musicians would be permitted to stayin those hotels. Black musicians at the time generally stayed in black neighborhoods. Lena Horne also sang at civil rights gatherings. She took part in the March on Washington protest in 1963. It was during this event that Martin Luther King gave his “I Have a Dream” s peech.Lena Horne performed in a strong and expressive way. One expert said she was not warm and amiable like white female singers at the time. Instead, she was a fierce black woman.1. From Paragraph 2, we know that Lena Home's deal with MGM .A. won her a lot of respectB. didn't bring her any good rolesC. made her popular in the USD. made her become a famous singer2. When Lena Horne saw how German prisoners and black soldiers were seated, how did she most probably feel?A. Angry.B. Satisfied.C. Interested.D. Moved.3. Paragraph 4 mainly tells about Lena Horne's .A. hope for a bright futureB. effort she put into musicC. effort against racial separationD. relationship with Martin Luther King4. What does the underlined word “amiable” in the last paragraph mean?A. Ugly.B. Boring.C.Brave.D. Friendly.根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。

Governments' incentive to require producers to take responsibility for the packaging they produce is usually based on money.Why, they ask, should cities or towns be responsible for paying to deal with the bubble wrap (气泡垫) that encased your television?From the governments' point of view, a primary goal of laws requiring extended producer responsibility is to transfer both the costs and the physical responsibility of waste management from the government and taxpayers back to the producers.()1.By mentioning the Swiss study, the author intends to tell us that ________.A.the weight of egoods is rather smallB.ewaste deserves to be made good use ofC.natural minerals contain more precious metalsD.the percentage of precious metals is heavy in ewaste()2.The responsibility of ewaste treatment should be extended ________.A.from producers to governmentsB.from governments to producersC.from individuals to distributorsD.from distributors to governments()3.What does the passage mainly talk about?A.The increase in ewaste.B.The creation of ewaste.C.The seriousness of ewaste.D.The management of ewaste.B(2016山东临沂高三10月检测,A)One day I saw Harold, my neighbor, putting some metal sheets around the base of his tree where he kept his bird feeder(喂鸟器).I didn't understand why until another neighbor explained to me that Harold was trying to keep the squirrels(松鼠) from eating the bird food.By putting the metal sheets around the base, Harold thought the squirrels wouldn't be able to climb up the tree.The next morning, the food was gone.The following week Harold figured he'd put the bird feeder on a string and hang it from the tip of one of the branches.I believe his thinking as that thesquirrel couldn't go out to the edge of the branch because the branch wouldn't support the weight thereby(因此) not allowing the squirrel to get to the feeder.Next day, you got it, the food was gone, too.I felt sorry for Harold.Although Harold was stronger and smarter than the squirrel, he lacked the one quality that would guarantee him victoryfocus.You see Harold thinks about ways of preventing the squirrel from getting the food on occasion, when he has time.The squirrel, on the other hand has its mind on getting that food 24 hours a day.The squirrels' survival depends onit.Survival brings about, not just focus but an intense focus on solving a problem by removing an obstacle.Success is not about who is stronger.Success is not about who has a better GPA(平均分数).Success is about who is more focused and committed to achieving their objectives.You, the reader, can compete with any person no matter who they may be.The only thing you have to do is commit yourself to focusing on the very subject that interests you.()4.Harold was worried because the squirrel ________.A.ate his bird foodB.hurt many of his birdsC.could climb the tree quicklyD.reached the end of the branches()5.What made the squirrel succeed according to the passage?A.Its cleverness.B.Its fixed attention.C.Its strength.D.Its very survival.()6.What does the writer advise you to do if you want to succeed?A.To be brave enough to compete with others.B.To try to keep your body healthy.C.To work much harder than others.D.To put your heart into what interests you.参考答案Ⅰ.完形填空【主旨大意】委曲求全是懦弱的表现,很容易被别人踩在脚下。

I always promised myself that I’d get out as soon as possible. Now, at the age of 20, I have a good job and a nice house, and I’m really proud of the independence I’ve achieved.Here’s the problem: several of my friends who still live with their parents wish they had places like mine—so much so that they make mine theirs.It started out with a couple of them spending the weekends with me. But now they seem to take it for granted that they can show up any time they like. They bring boyfriends over, talk on the phone and stay out forever.I enjoy having my friends here sometimes—it makes the place feel comfortable and warm—but this is my home, not a party house. I was old enough to move out on my own, so why can’t I seem to ask my friends to respect my privacy(隐私)?Joan Edward’s reply to JoanDear Joan,If your family didn’t pay attention to your needs when you were a child, you probably have trouble letting others know your needs now.And if you’ve gathered your friends around you to rebuild a happy family atmosphere(气氛),you may fear that saying no will bring back the kind of conflict you grew up with—or destroy the nice atmosphere you now enjoy. You need to understand that in true friendship it’s Okay to put your own needs first from time to time.Be clear about the message you want to send. For example,“I really love your company but I also need some privacy. So please call b efore you come over.”Edward1.We can learn from the first letter that Joan .A. lives away from her parentsB. takes pride in her friendsC. knows Edward quite wellD. hates her parents very much2. We can infer from the first letter that .A. Joan considers her friends more important than her privacyB. Joan’s friends visit her more often than she can acceptC. Joan doesn’t like the parties at allD. Joan dislikes the boyfriends her friends bring over3. According to Edward, why can’t Joan tell her friends her feelings?A. She is afraid of hurting her friends.B. She does not understand true friendship.C. Her family experience stops her from doing so.D. She does not put her needs first.4.The underlined word “conflict” in the second le tter means .A. dependent lifeB. fierce fightC. bad mannersD. painful feeling5. The second letter suggests that Edward .A. is worried about Joan’s problemB. warns Joan not to quarrel with her friendsC. advises Joan on how to refuse peopleD. encourages Joan to be brave enoughB“The pen is more powerful than the sword.” There have been many writers who used their pens to fight things that were wrong. Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe was one of them.She was born in the U.S.A. in 1811.One of her books not only made her famous but has been described as one that excited the world, and was helpful in causing a civil war and freeing the enslaved race. The civil war was the American Civil War of 1861,in which the Northern States fought the Southern States and finally won.This book that shook the world was called "Uncle Tom's Cabin". There was time when every English-speaking man, woman, and child has read this novel that did so much to stop slavery. Not many people read it today, but it is still very interesting. The book has shown us how a warm-hearted writer can arouse(唤起)people's sympathies(同情).The author herself had neither been to the Southern States nor been a slave. The Southern Americans were very angry at the book, which they said did not at all represent(描述)true state of affairs, but the Northern Americans were wildly excited over it and were so inspired by it that they were ready to go to war to set the slaves free.1.

What do you learn about Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe from the passageA. She had been living in the north of America before the American Civil Warbroke out.B. She herself encouraged the northern Americans to go to war to set the slavesfree.C. She was better as writing as swinging(挥舞)a sword.D. She had once been a slave.4. Why could Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe's book cause a civil war in AmericaA. She wrote so well that Americans loved her very much.B. She disclosed the terrible wrongs that had been done to the slaves in theSouthern States.C. The southern Americans hated the book while the northern Americans like it.D. The book had been read by many Americans.5. What can we learn from the passageA. We needn't use weapons(武器)to fight things that are wrong.B. A writer is more helpful in a war than a soldier.C. We must understand the importance of literature(文学) and art.D. No war can be won without such a book as 〝Uncle Tom's Cabin".CAIDS’ Threat to Asia GrowsNEW DELHI-Just a few years ago. Mala was a typical middle-class Indian housewife. She cooked,cleaned and looked after her two small children.Last year, her life took a tragic turn. Her husband died of AIDS; she was found out HIV-positive(爱滋病病毒检验呈阳性反应)and her mother-in-law took her children away from her, saying they would get the disease. “When friends dr opped for a visit, she would introduce me, saying, ‘She is my son’s widow. She has AIDS,’”said Mala. AIDS is now described as “explosive(炸药)“ around the world. A study of a hospital in the port city of Durban in South Africa, where the world’s biggest and Africa’s first AIDS conference opened last Sunday, found that almost half the beds in medical wards(病房) were occupied by AIDS patients.South Africa has one of the world’s fastest growing HIV infections(传染), with 1,700 people infected daily, adding to the 4.3 million, or 10 percent of its population, living with HIV. Until now, Asia has been more successful in holding the AIDS virus(病毒) than Africa, where the disease has killed about 12 million people .AIDS is now threatening to surround many of Asia’s pov erty-stricken countries.Countries in Asia, such as Cambodia, and Thailand, have HIV infection speeds over 1 percent. But the low speeds hide huge numbers of affected people because of the population base.In India, for example, 3.7 million are infected, more than in any other country except South Africa. In China, an estimated 500,000 people, mainly drug users, live with HIV/AIDS. Gordon Alexander, a senior advisor for UN AIDS in India, estimates (估计) that the number hit by AIDS in Asia will climb about eight million over the next five years from about six million.In many Asian countries, the battle against HIV is a social and cultural one against public discussion of sexual health put a nationwide media campaign into action to limit the speed of HIV through unsafe sex. Brenton Wong, an official for Singapore’s Action for AIDS, says the actual HIV incidence in the city state of 3.9 million people is at least eight times higher than official data.”Shame and deny is still very, very common so people are afraid to get tested and many times won’t even tell their families if they test positive,” said Wong.1. What does the underlined word “she” refer to?A. MalaB. Mala’s motherC. Mala’s mother-in-lawD. Mala’ssister2. It is judged that there are_people hit by AIDS in Asia or so.A. 4.3 millionB. 6 millionC. 8 millionD. 3.7 million3. According to the passage, the main reasons that AIDS spread in Asia is through_______. A. blood B. unsafe sex C. love D. drugs4.__________is the second largest country which has more HIV infection all over the world. A. China B. South Africa C. India D. Thailand5. Why are people afraid of being infected by AIDS?a. Because people who have AIDS are looked down upon.b. Because they will suffer a lot.c. Because they will die sooner or later.A. abB. acC. bcD. abcDparticular Marathron“Get out of the plane!” Justin shouted. Teddy and he dropped to the g round,…. When Kathy and Victor reached the edge of the meadow, flames(火焰)were shooting more than five meters into the air.Kathy couldn’t believe what she was seeing. One glance told her they needed medical attention immediately. She questioned Justin, “ Is there anyone in the plane?”“No,” he said.“Where are you able to radio for help?”“There was no time.”“ I’m a distance runner.” Kathy said, “I’ll go for help.” Looking at the seriously injured men, she said, “It may take me several hours to get out.” She started out. When she was 23, Kathy set a women’s-course record in a Marathon. She had run 42 kilometers. But now she was running the race of her life. She had nearly 30 kilometers of hard wilderness to cover to get help.Kathy had been running for two hours. This was far back into the wiilerness. The trail(小径) grew vague. She stopped to take a quick campass(指南针) reading. She had run for more than 20 kilometers. Her heart fell, her muscle(肌肉) aching. Finally she saw her car in the distance.She jumped into the car and sped away. She reached a holiday house and called the police.During the wait she walked around, relaxing her legs and drinking water. It took almost two hours for a helicopter to reach her at the trail head. They needed her for one more task.1. “Now, she was running the race of her life” means that ________________.A. she would set up a new recordB. she was running for the lives of othersC. she would run a race without othersD. she couldn’t rely on Victor this time2. Why did Kathy stopped to have a look at her campass? Because______________.A she didn’t trust her memoryB she had lost her wayC. The trail grew vagueD. Of the wilderness3. Why did she walk around, relax her legs and drink water? Because______________.A. She was too tiredB. she felt thirstyC. she wanted to regain lost energyD. nothing else could be done then4. What do you think of her final task was?A. Giving the injured food and drinksB. Taking them to the nearest hospitalC. To show the police the crash siteD. To go back to put the big fireEIf you have recently started collecting stamps, or thinking about starting, you may be wondering if the hobby is expensive.Can you enjoin it with limited money? What if you have no money at all for the hobby?The answer is an absolute positive one.Not all collections consist mainly of unused stamps that you buy in the post office. Used stamps are worth saving., have value and they may cost you nothing. In fact, many stamp collectors save only used stamps!The first place to search for stamps, then, is your own mailbox. You can ask people who write to you to use commemorative(纪念性的) stamps on their mail.Also, if you write away for offers that require a self-addressed stamps envelope, you can put commemoratives on your return envelopes, knowing that they will come back to you later.Neighbors, friends, and relatives are another good source of stamps. A majority of people are only to happy to save the stamps on their mail for someone who will appreciate them. You may even know someone who works in an office that gets a lot of mail. Many businesses get a lot of foreign mail and regularly throw away stamps that may have interest or value to a collector. And don’t forget to ask parents if they have any old letters which may still have stamps on the envelopes.Now that you have stamps on paper, what do you do with them? The most common way to get stamps off paper is to soak them in water, then dry them on paper. To understand more about soaking stamps, it is best to find a handbook on stamp collecting at the library.Stamp club are another place to get stamps. A club may offer stamps as prizes, or have inexpensive stamps you can offer to buy.If you don’t have a stamp club around you, try to start one with a few others. All it takes are four or five other stamp collectors who are interested in getting together to learn about and trade stamps and ideas.Obtaining a pen pal(笔友) in another country is a good way to get stamps from that country. His or her extra stamps may seem really common in that country, but over here they are much scarcer.1. Which of the following has the closest meaning to the underlined word“ positive”?A. certainB. InterestingC. ImpossibleD. Clear2. Which of the following is true?A. Collecting stamps is a bad habitB. Collecting stamps is a hobby for rich people .C. Used stamps are all worth collecting .D.

The writer suggests that you should _______.A. ask your friends to write to you as often as possibleB. ask your friends to write to each other as often as possibleC. tell your pen pals to write to you as often as possibleD. get used stamps from all kind of people you know4.

AAudrey Hepburn (奥黛丽·赫本) won an Academy Award as Best Actress for her first major American movie, Roman Holiday, which was released in 1953. But she is remembered as much for her aid work as for her acting.Born in Belgium in 1929, Audrey's father was British and her mother was Dutch.Audrey was sent to live at a British school for part of her childhood. During World War Ⅱ,she lived and studied in the Netherlands. Her mother thought it would be safe from German attacks. Audrey studied dance as a teenager and during college. But when she returned to London after the war she realized she wasn't going to be a ballerina (芭蕾舞女演员). So she began taking acting parts in stage shows. Later she began to get small parts in movies.But it was Audrey Hepburn's move to America in 1950s that brought her true fame. In 1951, she played the character “Gigi” in the Broadway play of the same name and received great critical praise. Two years later, Roman Holiday made her a star at the age of 24.Audrey made more than 25 movies. Among her roles, the most popular one was Holly Golightly in Breakfast at Tiffany's in 1961. Three years later she played Eliza Doolittle in My Fair Lady.She was married two times and had one child with each husband. In 1989, the UN Children's Fund named Audrey a goodwill ambassador. She travelled all over the world in support of UNICEF (联合国儿童基金会) projects. The UN agency said she was a tireless worker. She often gave 15 interviews a day to gain money and support for UNICEF projects.Audrey Hepburn often said her loyalty to UNICEF was the result of her experiences as a child during World War Ⅱ. She said she knew what it was like to be starving and to be saved by international aid. She was a goodwill ambassador until her death in 1993 from colon cancer.语篇解读:本文是一篇人物传记,主要介绍了奥黛丽·赫本的生平及她在电影方面的成就和对慈善事业的贡献。
