He told the BBC what he had observed.He explained that when you are the only one inside a lift, you can do whatever you want—it’s your own little box.If there are two of you, you go into different corners，standing diagonally (对角线地) across from each other to create distance.When a third person enters，you will unconsciously form a triangle.And when there is a fourth person it becomes a square，with someone in every corner.A fifth person is probably going to have to stand in the middle.New entrants (新进入者) to the lift will need to size_up the situation when the doors slide open and then act decisively.Once in，for most people the rule is simple—look down，or look at your phone.Why are we so awkward in lifts?“You don’t have enough spac e，”Professor Babette Renneberg，a clinical psychologist at the Free University of Berlin，told the BBC.“Usually when we meet other people we have about an arm’s length of distance between us.And that’s not possible in most elevators.”In such a small，enclosed space it becomes very important to act in a way that cannot be construed (理解) as threatening or odd.“The easiest way to do this is to avoid eye contact，”she said.语篇解读本文是一篇说明文。

2021-4-29 20XX年复习资料教学复习资料班级：科目：课时作业40 Meeting your ancestors Ⅰ.阅读理解(武汉市第二中学第一次质检)Ancient Chinese folk painting and many other art styles have been passed down from generation to generation, and are still practiced in different parts of China. Here's a look at four unique Chinese folk art forms.Chinese Opera is the traditional form of Chinese drama. According to incomplete statistics, in China's various ethnic regions there are about more than 360 kinds of operas. The most famous ones include Peking Opera, Kunqu Opera, Yueju Opera, Yuju Opera, Sichuan Opera, Fujian Opera, Hebei Opera, Huangmei Opera and so on, in total more than 50, among which Peking Opera is the most popular in China.Shadow Play dates back to Western Han Dynasty in Shaanxi more than 1,000 years ago. The moving figures, usually carved out from leather, are operated by folk artists, accompanied by music and singing. It is the world's first dubbed (配音的) motion picture art form, thus considered the “ancestor” of modern film. Today this art form is still popular in northern China.Papercutting is one of the most popular traditional decorative arts in China with a long history. Papercutting can be seen across China and it has even developed into different local genres (流派). They are usually used to decorate gates and windows during festivals.The Kite was invented by Chinese people. According to legend the earliest kite in China was a wooden bird by Mo Di in the Eastern Zhou dynasty. Later his student Lu Ban improved the tech and used bamboo as material to make a kite. Today, various kiteflying activities can be found in different regions of China. Shandong Weifang Kite Festival is held every year and attracts lots of kite lovers and travelers.本文是一篇说明文。

becomes a nightmare (噩梦) when someone is screaming，“Get up！”It’s just what every teenager goes through each morning!Now，there seems to be one school that finally understands that requiring teens to show up at 9 am is not just cruel but also harmful to both the kids and the school.Monkseaton High School in North Tyneside，Britain，recently decided to experiment to see ifthere is any difference in student behavior if they just pushed back the start of their day by one hour，from 9 am to 10 the results are surprising.Since carrying out the later start，Monkseaton has seen a 28% drop in truancy，even hardly any lateness，and best of all，higher test of the reasons is that the teenagers are much happier to have the extra hour of sleep，but there is also a scientific reason behind why they need the extra sleep.The school’s decision to push back the time was based on the research done by Oxford Professor Russell Foster，who pointed out that teenagers and adults have different sleep cycles，explaining why teenagers go to bed late and wake up late.While adults are wide awake and ready at 8 am，teenagers are not fully awake until 10 am，sometimes even may argue that their students perform better in the morning，but in fact，it is because they are in the zone while their students are still sleepy，making the students easier to tests prove that the more difficult classes should be in the afternoon when teenagers are most wide awake.The Monkseaton school officials are encouraged by the results and plan on voting to make it a permanent change.5．What’s the meaning of the

课时作业(二十六)一．阅读理解language learning in the UK.By using a new technology，it speaks to you as you prepare a French dish.The kitchen breaks new ground by taking language learning out of the classroom and linking it with an enjoyable and rewarding real life activity.The new kitchen is designed to be used in schools，universities and even people’s homes.It could also be an existing kitchen.The first version of the technology was tested in the kitchens of project partner Newcastle University.The kitchen could be available for schools and universities，and for the UK market by the June of 2014.The Newcastle University team is now working on ways to put it on the market.And the European Union has given money to begin programs in six other languages，including English，Italian and Spanish.Finally，versions could be developed for any language cuisine (烹饪法) in the world.Professor Paul says，“By international standards，the UK students are now poor when it es to learning languages—a problem that certainly has an economic influence.We believe that developing skills in a country’s language and its cuisine will help change the trend.”On a puter fixed into the kitchen，the user first selects the French recipe (菜谱) they want to follow.Digital sensors built into dishes，containers and other equipment then municate with the puter to make sure the right instructions are given at the right time，the user can ask the puter to repeat an instruction，or translate it into English，simply by pressing the touch screen.After cooking，the user can test what they have learned by carrying out a short test on the puter.All grammar and vocabulary has been carefully selected to make sure that using the kitchen adds to basic proficiency (熟练) in understanding French.Now three easycarrying versions of the kitchen are being prepared.They’re to be fixed in Newcastle University and at Institute Francais，a London-based charity devoted to teaching the French language.1．The new kitchen is designed mainly to ________.A．increase people’s interest in cookingB．teach people how to cook French dishesC．offer people a new way to learn languagesD．help cooks learn spoken French in the kitchen2．Which of the following is TRUE about the kitchen?A．It has versions in six languages now.B．It is already available for sale in the UK.C．It has received strong support from the EU.D．It can be used only in schools and university.3．When a person is using the kitchen，________.A．it will give him a test on his cooking skillsB．it can translate French into another languageC．the cooking process will stop if he goes wrongD．he must be careful so as not to make mistakes4．What would be the best title for the text?A．UK Students Have Problems in Language Learning.B．New Technology Helps Students Learn Cooking.C．An Enjoyable and Rewarding Real-life Activity.D．A Talking Kitchen That Teaches You French.[语篇解读]本文主要讲述的是一种能够帮助我们进行语言学习的特殊的厨房系统，并介绍了它的诸多特色。

B．Scientists from Singapore.C．Researchers in Yale. D．Susan Mayne.5．We can infer from Pereira's words that ______.A．the healthcare in Singapore should be greatly improvedB．2 soft drinks a day are considered harmful to healthC．87 out of 140 volunteers developed pancreatic cancerD．sugar might not be the only cause of pancreatic cancer6．How does Susan seem to feel about the findings of the study?A．Satisfied. B．Doubtful.C．Worried.

families，taking a job is not a matter of choice，but necessity.They need to work to save for college，or even to supplement family ine.Counselors should help students who have a real need to work improve time management skills and seek employment that helps their educational goals.“College costs are high，and young adults also want the amenities (便利设施) that extra money brings，” according to John B．Boshoven，counselor for continuing education at munity High School inMichigan.However，he warns，“School is my students’ fulltime job.”Studies show that students who work are more confident and possess better time management skills than students who are not employed.In addition to offering a paycheck，some independence and satisfaction，a parttime job can provide teenagers with both training and experience.Working teaches students about responsibility and can also reinforce (充实) what they are learning in school.“Colleges want to find candidates who demonstrate maturity，responsibility，independence and initiative，and good workers certainly demonstrate those important character traits，” Boshoven says.“Employers can write excellent remendation letters for the students who have worked for them.”On the other hand，experts agree that students who work more than 15 to 20 hours per week often experience lessened school success，which can lead to dropping out entirely.Working long hours can also limit opportunities to build friendships and explore interests that enhance a teenager’s intellectual and emotional development.The major point that students should keep in mind is the importance of balance.Dan Crabtree，College and Career Counselor at Wheaton Academy in Illinois，explains，“We want our students to establish a healthybalance in life and work to maintain it throughout their lives.” If working will interfere with pleting school work，participating in extracurricular activities，spending time with family and friends，or getting enough rest，it may not be a wise decision.1．What’s the purpose of the passage?A．To show how students can find a parttime job.B．To explain what is a parttime job.C．To stress the importance of students’ parttime work.D．To discuss the issue of students’ parttime work.2．In Boshoven’s opinion，students________.a．shouldn’t depend on their families financiallyb．should take their studies as the first priorityc．can benefit from parttime workd．can form healthy habits in their livesA．bc B．bdC．ab D．ac3．According to the passage，we know that________.A．without counselors’ help，few students can get employedB．teenagers show strong interest in parttime workC．too much parttime work can lead to bad academic performance D．experts encourage students to do more parttime work4．What can be concluded from the passage?A．Parttime work is important for most students at college.B．Students should balance parttime work well with other things.C．Experts’ advice is the key to finding a good parttime job.D．All in

help you expand your scope of knowledge，especially geographical and historical learning.It will provide more chances for you to enjoy food and try on clothes that you otherwise cannot possibly have.A famous English author Francis Bacon (156l－1626) makes a point when he says that，“Travel，in the younger sort，is a part of education；in the elder，a part of experience.”Evidence of leisure travel can be traced (追溯) as far back as ancient Babylon.But this sort of travel only really took off after World War Ⅱ.This year，according to the World Travel & Tourism Council，the 1billionth tourist will cross an international boundary before the end of this month.That means that one in seven people on the planet travelled this year，something that would not have been possible a few decades ago.Around 20 years ago only the rich could travel.While the US and France remain the two largest destinations for world travel，experts say much of the explosive growth in tourism has been to countries like Guatemala，the Dominican Republic，and the Ivory Coast，which weren’t even on the world tourism map a decade ago.The top five destinations in the world，according to the United Nations World Tourism Organization，are Paris，London，New York，the Mediterranean and Turkey.Several factors have led to the boom in world travel.The prosperity of people in Asia is one factor.People in Asian developing countries have lifted their ines above middleclass levels in the past few years.And a lot of them have used their new wealth to travel.In addition，travel costs have been reduced thanks to the rapid development of transportation and petition between airlines to give customers the best prices.课时作业(四十)Ⅰ.单项填空1．解析：考查情景交际。

2021年高考英语一轮总复习课时作业40 Meeting your ancestors 新人教版

2021年高考英语一轮总复习课时作业40 Meeting your ancestors 新人教版Ⅰ.阅读理解(xx·河北省衡水中学四调)Four schoolchildren from Belgrade, England were out on their bikes on Wednesday evening. Unexpectedly, they saw an elderly man grasping for breath(喘息) in the street. They tried to call the police and ambulance service, but their phones were not working, due to network problems.Before the Polish man became unconscious, the children kept him calm while they flagged down(招停)a passing driver. The children used words they had picked up from their Polish classmates to translate the injured man's answers to the driver's questions. Gary, 10, and his sixyearold sister, Lily, stayed with the man while Thymus and Owen, both 11, led the ambulance to the spot where he lay. Soon the man was taken to hospital.The fantastic four children who came to the aid of the elderly man deserve the highest respect for their quickthinking and courage in an emergency situation. They are a credit not only to themselves, but to their families and their school. And it is great to be able to hear such a positive story about young people.What is not so positive about this story is the fact that several adultsapparently walked by without stopping to help. This seeming indifference to an emergency situation is a well noted phenomenon which psychologists sometimes refer to as “the bystander effect”. Research suggests that when a group of people witness an emergency, people are likely to assume that somebody else will intervene and they feel that the burden of responsibility is lifted from their shoulders.Perhaps the answer to this sort of things is to introduce a “Good Samaritan” law. This already exists in France and places a legal responsibility on people who witness an emergency situation to help out as long as they can do so. This certainly seems to remove any doubt about who bears the burden of responsibility for offering assistance—everyone.1．What can we learn about the elderly man?A．He spoke Polish with the children.B．He fell from his bike and got injured.C．He was taken to hospital by the driver.D．He recovered consciousness in the street.2．In Paragraph 3, the author mainly ________.A．shows his great sympathy for the manB．gives high praise to the four childrenC．offers his special thanks to the driverD．expresses his anger at several adults3．The underlined word “intervene” in Paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to ________.A．be curious B．go onC．give up D．get involved4．In France, if an emergency happens to someone，________.A．offering help to him is required by lawB．people have the right to leave the sceneC．others must get permission before helping himD．the witnesses will be punished if the rescue fails答案与解析本文是关于四个孩子帮助一位波兰老人，用他们所学到的知识来送老人去医院的事，这些孩子应得到表扬，这些事在不同的国家有不同的看法。

课时作业40Ⅰ.阅读理解(2017·广东实验中学月考)Parents will do anything for their children. Whether it would be the food, clothes, or the place they live in, parents will always make sure their children have the best of everything. One of the biggest concerns that parents currently have is educating their children. They are faced with lots of difficulties when it comes to education for their young ones. Choices include private school, charter school, public school or homeschooling.Fortunately for parents, there are a variety of different strategies that they can take in order to increase their child's overall intelligence. According to Ross A．Thompson, PhD, professor of psychology at the University of California at Davis, a child's brain will actually reach 90% of its full size by the time they start kindergarten.Researchers at Northwestern University in Chicago concluded that playing a musical instrument directly affected the brain stem, the lower section of the brain. Moreover, children that learn an instrument at an early age tend to continue it when they are older. And numerous studies show that a well-balanced meal is essential for a child's mental as well as physical health. Some other researchers recommended that a second language should be taught when children are in preschool. They state that three to four years of age is the perfect time and that any age under four would work perfectly fine for a child's brain development.The average child will learn how to read between kindergarten and second grade. Many parents can give their children a jump start by teaching them to read before they start school. Children could have an adequate background of the alphabet and sounds of words before attendingschool. This can be done by simply reading to them whenever you want. The more comfortable they get, the easier the process will be.1．From the first paragraph, we can infer that ________.A．parents have more choices in offering education to their kidsB．parents find it hard to satisfy their kids' various demandsC．parents get actively involved in the process of their kids' growth D．parents meet a new challenge when raising their kids2．What suggestion may the researchers in the passage make?A．To try as many means as possible.B．To train kids as early as possible.C．To help kids develop as fully as possible.D．To use as many available resources as possible.3．What does the third paragraph mainly discuss about?A．The effective ways to help develop children's brains.B．The proper time to teach children to learn languages.C．The vital factors to have a great effect on children's health.D．The practical steps to arouse children's interest in study.4．We can replace the words “jump start” in the last paragraph with ________.A. inspiration B．promotionC．suggestion D．introduction答案与解析文章介绍父母愿意为孩子做一切.父母最关心的是教育问题.文章建议父母要从孩子小的时候就开始教育.1．D推理判断题.根据第一段的句子“They are faced with lots of difficulties when it comes to education for their young ones.”可知，父母在教育孩子的时候遇到新的问题.故选D.2．B推理判断题.根据第二段的句子“a child's brain will actually reach 90% of i ts full size by the time they start kindergarten.”可知，研究人员建议父母尽可能早地训练孩子.故选B.3．A段落大意题.根据第三段的句子“playing a musical instrument；a well-balanced meal；a second language”可知，这段主要介绍帮助发展孩子大脑的有效的方法.故选A.4．B词义猜测题.根据第四段的句子“Many parents can give their children a jump s tart by teaching them to read before they start school.”可知，很多父母在孩子上学之前教孩子阅读可以让他们得到提高.“jump start”意为promotion.故选B.Ⅱ.七选五(2017·湖南省益阳市高三质检)Maybe you are an average student. You probably think you will never be a top student. This is not necessary so，however. Anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to. Here is how.1. Plan your time carefully.When you plan your week, you should make a list of things that you have to do. After making the list，you should make a schedule of your time. First time for eating，sleeping，dressing，etc. Then decide a good, regular time for studying. __1__. A weekly schedule may not solve all your problems，but it will force you to realize what is happening to your time.2．Find a good place to study.__2__. Keep this space，which may be a desk or simply a corner of your room. Free from everything but study materials. No games，radios，or television.

You will probably discover many others after you have tried these.A．Look around the house for a good study areaB．No one can become a top student unless he or she works hardC．This will help you understand the next classD．Really listening in class means less work laterE．Make full use of class time to take notes of what the teacher says in classF．The world won't end if you don't pass a testG．Don't forget to set aside enough time for entertainment答案与解析这篇短文告诉我们：如果你是一个很平常的学生，那么怎样才能变成一个更好的学生，使自己的学习成绩提高？这篇短文中给了我们很多好的建议.1．G根据下一句 A weekly schedule may not solve all your problems. 说明很满的时间安排不一定能解决所有的问题，一定要有娱乐的时间.故G正确.2．A根据空格后两句Keep this space, which may be a desk or simply a corner of your room. Free from everything but study materials.在你房间里找个地方，比如书桌或者只是一个角落，这地方除了学习用品，其他什么都别放.可知上句的意思是：环顾房子，找一个适合学习的地方.故选A.3．D根据上句Take advantage of class time to listen to everything the teachers say.利用上课时间听老师说的一切.可知下句应该说：真正地在课堂上听意味着以后更少的工作.故选D.4．C根据前一句If you know what your teacher is going to discuss the next day, read that material.说明预习的重要性，预习以后会让我们的学习更高效.故C项内容符合上下文.5．F根据上句They help you remember your new knowledge.他们帮助你记得你的新知识.空格下句：所以不要太担心.可知此空的意思是：如果你不通过一个测试，这个世界不会结束.故选F.Ⅲ.语法填空(2017·湖南省衡阳市质检)Our foreign teacher Mr. Brown, __1__came to China for the __2__(one) time. He wanted to visit the Great Wall last weekend. Having been told about the history of the Great Wall, he was __3__(amaze) at this world wonder.

In The Future of Life, he takes us on a tour of the world's natural resources. How are they used? What has been lost? What remains and is it able to continue with the present speed of use? Wilson also points out the need to understand fully the biodiversity(生物多样性)of our earth.Wilson begins with an open letter to the pioneer in environment protection, Henry David Thoreau. He compares today's Walden Pond with that of Thoreau's day. Wilson will use such comparisons for the rest of the book. The problem is clear: man has done great damage to his home over the years.Can the earth, with human help, be made to return to biodiversity levels that will be able to support us in the future?Biodiversity, Wilson argues, is the key to settling many problems the earth faces today. Even our agricultural crops can gain advantages from it. A mere hundred species(物种) are the basis of our food supply, of which but twenty carry the load. Wilson suggests changing this situation by looking into ten thousand species that could be made use of, which will be a way to reduce the clearing of the natural homes of plants and animals to enlarge farming areas.At the end of the book, Wilson discusses the importance of human values in considering the environment. If you are to continue to live on the earth, you may as well read and act on the ideas in this book.16．What is the purpose of writing the book?A．To call people on to protect the environment.B．To explore the nature.C．To make good use of the natural resource.D．To call on people to explore, make good use of and protect the earth.17．We learn from the text that Wilson cares most about ________.A．the environment for plantsB．the biodiversity of our earthC．the waste of natural resourcesD．the importance of human values18．How many species are most important to our present food supply?A．Twenty.B．Eighty.C．One hundred.D．Ten thousand.19．Wilson suggests that one way to keep biodiversity is to ________.A．learn how to farm scientificallyB．build homes for some dying speciesC．make it clear what to eatD．use more species20．We can infer that the text is ________.A．a description of natural resourcesB．a research reportC．a book reviewD．an introduction to a scientistB[2011·广东卷]In the animal kingdom, weakness can bring about aggression in other animals.This sometimes happens with humans also. But I have found that my weakness brings out the kindness in people.I see it every day when people hold doors for me, pour cream into my coffee, or help me to put on my coat. And I have discovered that it makes them happy.From my wheelchair experience, I see the best in people, but sometimes I feel sad because those who appear independent miss the kindness I see daily. They don't get to see this soft side of others.Often, we try every way possible to avoid showing our weakness, which includes a lot of pretending. But only when we stop pretending we're brave or strong do we allow people to show the kindness that's in them.Last month, when I was driving home on a busy highway, I began to feel unwell and drove more slowly than usual. People behind me began to get impatient and angry, with some speeding up alongside me, horning (按喇叭) or even shouting at me. At that moment，I decided to do something I had never done in twenty－four years of driving. I put on the car flashlights and drove on at a really low speed.No more angry shouts and no more horns!When I put on my flashlights, I was saying to the other drivers, “I have a problem here.I am weak and doing the best I can.” And everyone understood. Several times, I saw drivers who wanted to pass. They couldn't get around me because of the stream of passing traffic. But instead of getting impatient and angry, they waited, knowing the driver in front of them was in some way weak.Sometimes situations call for us to act strong and brave even when we don't feel that way. But those are few and far between. More often, it would be better if we don't pretend we feel strong when we feel weak or pretend that we're brave when we're scared.21．The author has discovered that people will feel happy when ________.A．they offer their helpB．they receive others' helpC．they feel others' kindnessD．they show their weakness22．The author feels sad sometimes because ________.A．he has a soft heartB．he relies much on othersC．some people pretend to be kindD．some people fail to see the kindness in others23．What did the other drivers do when they saw the flashlights?A．They speeded up to pass.B．They waited with patience.C．They tried their best to help.D．They put on their flashlights too.24．In this passage, the author advises us to ________.A．handle problems by ourselvesB．accept help from othersC．admit our weaknessD．show our bravery25．Which of the following is the best title of this passage?A．A Wheelchair Experience.B．Weakness and Kindness.C．Weakness and Strength.D．A Driving Experience.答案课时作业(四十)Ⅰ.1.D名词辨析。

many people，volunteering is a way of life.Holidays are the time of the year that more people are in a giving mood.Homeless shelters，children’s hospitals，and nursing homes are excellent places to give of one’s time.Volunteering in Homeless SheltersThere is a homeless directory online that anyone can easily access to find the closest homeless shelter to their home.According to the homeless shelter directory，currently there are 3,233 shelters in the US，so it is not difficult to find a shelter.Helping to serve food，picking up donations of food，preparing meals，and cleaning up are things that one can do to help at a homeless shelter.Volunteering in Children’s HospitalsEvery child needs comfort and joy，especially during the holiday seasons.By visiting sick children in hospitals，an individual provides helping hands by supplementing the services usuallydone by the hospital staff.Personalizing the hospital experience adds to the comfort and happiness of the children and their families.V olunteers provide help，and positive interactions (相互交流) which enhance the patient’s quality of care.Help is needed almost everywhere in a hospital；from the lobby，parking lot，cafeteria，to admitting，helping with the gift cart，and even reading to children in the waiting rooms or their hospital rooms.Volunteering in Nursing HomesAccording to the National Center for Health Statistics，“Over 50% of those living in nursing homes do not have close relatives and 46% have no living children.”Life in a nursing home is lonely，confusing，and frightening for many residents.V olunteering at a nursing home is a great opportunity to make a difference in someone else’s life.Playing cards，sitting with and talking to a resident，taking a walk，or sharing a meal makes a huge difference，especially when they have no other sole on earth to visit them.The three examples above are only a small fraction of institutions in which volunteers are needed.Giving of oneself，especially during the holidays blesses and cheers others.1．According to the passage，what can a volunteer do in nursing homes?A．Visiting the sick children.B．Picking up the donated food.C．Helping with the gift cart.D．Playing cards with a lonely old man.2．What can we learn about the volunteering?A．You can only volunteer during the holidays.B．You can help prepare meals in a nursing home.C．It is easy to find a homeless shelter to volunteer.D．Help is needed everywhere in a homeless shelter.3．In a children’s hospital，which of the following is true?A．Over 50% of those living there do not have relatives.B．A personal visit brings happiness to a sick boy.C．Children live a lonely and frightening life.D．Children love listening to volunteers’ reading.4．The best title for the passage would be________.A．Giving of oneself cheers othersB．V olunteering is a way of lifeC．V olunteering during the holidaysD．Giving is better than takingB(2013·合肥第二次质量检测) Wisdom teeth are normally the last teeth to appear.This usually happens when people are in their late teen years or early twenties，in other words，when they are older and wiser.Wisdom teeth can grow into place normally and never cause a problem.But often there is not enough room for them in the mouth；they might crowd other teeth.Sometimes they even push sideways through the gums (齿龈)．An impacted wisdom tooth is one that fails to completely rise through the gums.Wisdom teeth that only partly break through can leave space for bacteria to enter around the teeth.Infection (感染) is a risk in these cases.Wisdom teeth that are not well lined and become impacted are often removed.The American Dental Association says removal is generally advised when wisdom teeth only partly break through the gums.Removal is also advised if there is a chance that wisdom teeth ate poorly lined.The best time to remove is before the teeth cause any problems or pain.Young adults are the best candidates for wisdom teeth removal.But why do we have wisdom teeth if we often need to get them removed？One theory has to do with our diets.Scientists say the diet of ancient humans probably required more chewing teeth.Life was probably a little rougher on the teeth back then，too.So it was good to have extras.5．According to the passage，which of the following statements is NOT true?A．Just older and wiser people can have wisdom teeth.B．Wisdom teeth can cause problems if not in their right place.C．Impacted wisdom teeth can’t grow out of the gum fully.D．Wisdom teeth that only partly break can get bacterial infections.6．Wisdom teeth should be removed________.A．when they break through the gumsB．when they are below the gumsC．if they are not well lined or get impactedD．if they take up enough room in the mouth7．We can learn from the passage that________.A．impacted wisdom teeth have the risk of getting infectedB．ancient humans need chewing teeth because of their happy lifeC．older adults are the best candidates for wisdom teeth removalD．more chewing teeth are needed for the diet of modern humans8．The main purpose of the passage is to________.A．advise B．persuadeC．comment D．introduce详解答案课时作业(四十)Ⅰ.单项填空1．解析：take advantage of...利用……；make a good impression on sb.给某人留下好印象。
