program for immigrant children.No one was surprised，then，when she chose to volunteer in an orphanage in Khayelitsha，one of South Africa’s poorest areas，during her junior year abroad.At the orphanage，Johnson discovered most of the children infected with HIV at birth，many abandoned by parents too sick to care for them，or neglected by surviving relatives.Few were receiving the care needed to stay healthy.Many died.When she left，all she wanted to do was go back and change what she had seen.After graduation，Johnson began a fund－raising effort that eventually collected enough money to found UBA，a nonprofit organization intended to provide services for HIV－positive(阳性的)kids aged 4 to 18 in Khayelitsha.Now UBA is housed in a church big enough for offices and the children.The staff includes counselors(咨询师)，a social worker，a nurse，a cook，and a handful of volunteers，ensuring that each child has access to proper care，a free healthy meal，and emotional support.Once a week，she makes sure the children receive age－appropriate lessons about AIDS.The social worker sees to it that the kids are enrolled(注册)in school and have safe living conditions－especially those without parents.Johnson plans to soon relocate UBA to an even larger location with more medical staff and a field“so the kids can run around and just feel like kids.”She’s also working with the South African Department of Health so that the new center can distribute drugs and give blood tests.“Many people think that HIV means death，but it doesn’t，”Johnson says.“There’s so much that can be done.”In the five years since the center opened，not one of the 200 kids in the program has died.“It’s so emotional to see the strong，independent people they become.”One teenage girl who had received help at UBA even announced that she wanted to become a nurse.1．What is the text mainly about?A．A kind girl caring for children with HIV.B．A poor area stricken by poverty and disease.C．A nonprofit organization providing services for kids.D．Abandoned children infected with HIV.2．After graduating from college，Whitney Johnson________.A．volunteered at soup kitchens in New YorkB．went to study abroad for a yearC．started an English－language tutoring programD．began collecting money to found UBA3．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A．Johnson was infected with HIV at birth.B．Johnson opened UBA during her junior year.C．Johnson majored in English at college.D．Johnson began to volunteer at an early age.4．According to the passage，UBA________.A．distributes drugs and give blood testsB．is located in South AfricaC．is an orphanage in KhayelitshaD．trains girls to be nursesBA music festival is a festival determined towards music that is sometimes presented with a theme such as musical type，nationality or locality of musicians，or holiday.They are commonly held outdoors，and are often inclusive of other attractions such as food and merchandise vendors(卖主)，performance art，and social activities.The Pythian Games at Delphi included musical performances，and may be one of the earliest festivals known.During the Middle Ages festivals were often held as competitions.Many festivals are annual，or repeat at regular interval.Some，including many rock festivals，are held only once.Some festivals are organized as for－profit concerts and others are benefits for a specificcause.Another type of music festival is the educative type，organized annually in local communities，regionally or nationally，for the benefit of amateur musicians of all ages and grades of achievement.While entrants(参加竞赛者) perform prepared pieces in the presence of an audience which includes competitors，the essential feature of this type of festival is that each participant receives verbal and written feedback(反馈)，there and then，from a highly qualified，professional adjudicator(判决者)—someone who they might never meet in any other way.They also usually receive a certificate，classified according to merit，and some may win trophies.The competitive element is often played down，however，as the important aspect is that participants can learn from one another.Such festivals aim to provide a friendly and supportive platform for musicians to share in the excitement of making music.For many they provide a bridge between lessons & examinations and performing confidently in public.5．What is TRUE about a music festival?A．It must be performed with a theme once a year.B．A common music festival is held outdoors.C．Some may not only include musical performances.D．Music festivals date from the Middle Ages.6．The music festivals can be held as the following EXCEPT________.A．competitionsB．for－profit concertsC．benefits for a specific causeD．rock－moving games7．Which is NOT the characteristic of an educative music festival?A．It can be held in a community or in a whole country.B．Some competitors can also enjoy others’ performances.C．It can be beneficial for all kinds of musicians.D．Each participant can receive judgments from a specialist.8．What’s the most important significance for holding a music festival?A．Musicians can communicate and benefit from one another.B．Performers can get guidance from professional adjudicators.C．Participants can receive classified certificates.D．The competitive element is often played down.必修4Module 6课后达标检测24Ⅰ.单项填空1．解析：选C。

角顿市安康阳光实验学校Unexplained mysteries of the natural world本试卷分第Ⅰ卷(选择题)和第Ⅱ卷(非选择题)两部分，共150分。

考试时间120分钟。

第Ⅰ卷(选择题)第一部分听力第二部分阅读理解(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。

APeople use their mouths for many things. They eat，talk, shout and sing. They smile and they kiss. In the English language, there are many expressions using the word “mouth”．For example, if you say bad things about a person，the person might protest(抗议)and say “Do not bad mouth me.” Sometimes, people say something to a friend or family member that they later regret because it hurts that person. Or they tell the person something they were not supposed to tell. The speaker might say, “I really put my foot in my mouth this time. ”If this should happen, the speaker m ight feel down in the mouth. In other words, he might feel sad for saying the wrong thing.Another situation is when someone falsely claims another person said something. The other person might protest，“I did not say that. Do not put words in my mouth.”Some people have lots of money because they were born into a very rich family. There is an expression for this, too. You might say such a person，“was born with a silver spoon in his mouth.” This rich person is the opposite of a person who lives from hand to mouth. This person is very poor and only has enough money for the most important things in life, like food.Parents might sometimes keep a child off sweet food as a form of punishment for saying bad things. For example, if a girl says things she should not say to her parents, she might be described as a mouthy child. The parents might even tell the child to stop mouthing off.But enough of all this talk. I have been running my mouth long enough.语篇解读：人们用嘴做很多事情，比如吃饭，谈话，喊叫，唱歌，微笑，接吻等。

Module 6 Unexplained Mysteries of the Natural World Section Ⅰ Introduction & Reading-Pre-readingMonsters in ScotlandIt is said that Nessie is a lake monster inhabiting Loch Ness in Scotland. This monster is one of the bestknown cryptids (未知生物) studied by cryptology (密码学). Popular belief and interest in the animal has fluctuated over the years since it came to the world's attention i n 1933.Evidence of its existence is largely anecdotal (轶闻趣事的), with minimal, and much disputed, photographic material and sonar reading, there has not been any physical evidence (skeletal remains, capture of a live animal, definitive tissue samples or spoor) uncovered as of 2008.A similar loch monster named Morag is reported to live in Loch Mora, Scotland.After Nessie herself, Morag is among the best known of Scodand's legendary monsters.Secrets in StoneStonehenge is a group of huge stones in England.It was probably built about 5,000 years ago.So how did its makers manage to transport, shape, raise and connect the giant stones？Even more mysterious, how did they know how to position the stones in exactly the right spots to measure the movements of the sun and the moon? Theanswer is: no one knows.There are megaliths, or big stones, all over the world.On Easter Island there are about 900 giant stone heads. The statues are from 3 to 12 metres high.Some weigh over 45 tons.That's more than the weight of seven elephants! How did the statues get on Easter Island? A legend says they walked there.The mystery is still waiting to be solved.Section_ⅠIntroduction & Reading —Prereading[原文呈现]The Monster①of Lake TianchiThe “Monster of Lake Tianchi” in the Changbai Mountains in Jilin province, northeast China, is back in the news②after several recent sightings③. The director of a local tourist office, Meng Fanying, said the monster, which seemed to be④black in colour⑤， was ten metres from the edge of the lake during the most recent sighting. “It jumped out of the water like a seal⑥— about 200 people on Changbai's western peak⑦saw it，” he said. Although no one really got a clear look at⑧the mysterious⑨creature, Xue Junlin, a local photographer, claimed⑩ that its head looked like a horse.In another recent sighting, a group of soldiers claim they saw an animal moving ⑪ on the surface⑫ of the water. The soldiers, who were walking along the side of the lake⑬，watched the creature swimming⑭for about two minutes. “It was greenishblack and had a round head with⑮10centimetre horns⑯，” one of the soldiers said.A third report⑰ came from⑱ Li Xiaohe, who was visiting the lake with his family ⑲. He claims to have seen⑳ a round black creature moving quickly through the water. After three or four hundred metres it dived○21 into the water. Ten minutes later○2223 again and repeated the action.
