In 1931, Addams became the first American woman to win the Nobel Peace Prize.Rachel Carson(1907—1964)If it weren’t for Rachel Carson, the environmental movement might not exist today.

（全国通用）2019高考英语一轮复习考点规范练16 Unit 1 Women ofachievement 新人教版必修4Ⅰ.阅读理解AAlthough she was to become one of the world’s most attractive sexsymbols,Marilyn Monroe’s start in life was very,very far from attractive.Born in Los Angeles on June 1,1926,Norma Jeane Mortenson spent most of her childhood in and out of foster homes(寄养家庭) and orphanages(孤儿院).“No one ever told me I was pretty when I was a little girl,”she once said.“All little girls should be told they’re pretty,even if they aren’t.”By 16,Norma Jeane was a high school dropout and married,although she was a greedy reader and lover of the classics and would later take literature courses atUniversity of California at Los Angeles.When her husband was sent to the South Pacific,19-year-old Norma Jeane worked in a munitions factory(军工厂) in Southern California.David Conover,a photographer working on a story for Yank magazine about women helping the war effort,photographed the curly-haired lady working on an airplane.He then referred her to another photographer,Bill Carroll,who was seeking a “good looking plain Jane” to photograph and gave her $20 for the work.From there,her modeling career was launched.She landed an agent and a contract with Twentieth Century Fox,and divorced her first husband.Marilyn Monroe,the curly-haired bombshell,was born.She then became a very famous actress,model,and singer,starring in a number of commercially successful motion pictures during the 1950s and early 1960s.Monroe died at the age of 36.Throughout her all-too-short life,Monroe had the rare ability to combine an intense sensuality with a genuine innocence.As her friend and favorite photographer,George Barris,observed,“She was a sweet little girl in a woman’s body.”Monroe herself once explained she knew what the photographers sa id about her.“Don’t let anyone tell you it is in her body.You know where it is.It’sin her mind.”1.Marilyn Monroe had .A.a tough childhoodB.a happy childhoodC.a normal childhoodD.an interesting childhood2.What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?A.Mon roe’s family life.B.Monroe’s main achievements.C.How Monroe helped the war as a worker.D.How Monroe started her career as an artist.3.We can infer that Monroe made a success of her career mainly due to .A.her friendsB.her attractive bodyC.her family backgroundD.her charming personality4.What can we infer from the text about Monroe?A.She was a gifted artist.B.She worked very hard.C.She had a happy marriage.D.She performed well at school.BYour door just gets smarterLockitron device(设备)After you fix the Lockitron device($179) on your door and download the app,you can unlock the door by texting your password(密码) or tapping the app on your phone.The device is placed on the inside of your door,and the app works with any smartphone.August Smart LockSecurity gets very social with the August Smart Lock($199),which uses an app to sense and give access to those with approved smartphones.Approach the entry while logged(登录) in to your account,and the door will automatically unlock.You can temporarily add a friend who wants to borrow a measuring cup or set up a schedule to admit the cleaner each weekday morning.Goji systemFor the Einstein of digital unlocking devices,go for the Goji system($245).It replaces your lock and features an LED display that flashes a personalized greeting as you approach the front door.It also has a built-in camera,which takes a photo of visitors(expected or not) and sends it straight to your smart-phone.Watch out for thieves.Kwikset Kevo lockThe Kwikset Kevo lock($219) offers the ease and convenience of digital access with a traditional “key” feel.A little device called the Fob—roughly the size of a stick of gum—easily fits on your key chain and operates with the lock:All you have to do is tap the two of them together to unlock the door.5.What is special about the August Smart Lock?A.It is updated every August.B.It provides the highest security.C.The door automatically locks after your guests leave.D.The door automatically opens for your expected friends.6.The underl ined word “them” in the last paragraph refers to .A.the gum and the keyB.the Fob and the lockC.the Fob and the key chainD.the key chain and the lock7.Which of the following can help you text your way home?A.The Lockitron device.B.The August Smart Lock.C.The Goji system.D.The Kwikset Kevo lock.Ⅱ.七选五Montreal mermaid school lets you shake your tailIn Disney’s classic The Little Mermaid(美人鱼),the main character Ariel sings her little heart out about wanting to walk among the humans.But in real life,many water enthusiasts long for the opposite experience:acting out a fantasy of swimming as beautifully and happily as a mermaid.1.AquaMermaid,which opened earlier this month in Montreal,Quebec,is a fitness program,offering classes in which people can slip on a monofin(单蹼) and live to tell the tale.“I’d been doing some modeling and a friend asked me to do an underwater photo shoot wearing a mermaid tail,”explained founder Marielle Chartier Hénault,24,on howshe came up with the idea.“2. And I felt like it was such a happy environment.”Inspired by the response she’d received at the photo shoot,Chartier Hénault decided to launch her own business offering the experience to others as part of a fitness program.“Some people think it’s a joke,”she said.“And in general they assume it’s really easy to move around wearing a monofin.3.”Because of the dual(双的) languages spoken in Montreal,the school operates under two names,AquaMermaid and the French translation AquaSirene.4.Since launching in the first week of February,more than 150 people have signed up for classes,birthday parties or other private events featuring mermaid school instruction.“It has been cool that so many men have come out,”said Chartier Hénault,of her mermen students.More than any h ealth benefits,Chartier Hénault feels she is allowing anyone from age 7 and up to live out a fantasy.She said,“5.”A.And now they can.B.I am hoping to bring the idea to the U.S.soon.C.But a mermaid’s appeal appears to be universal.D.But once they put the tail on they realize it is hard.E.People kept stopping by the pool,laughing and smiling.F.It’s more about having fun and having a dream come true.G.You really need to understand the weight movement of your body.Ⅲ.书面表达日常生活中,你或你身边的人可能为一点小事而大发脾气,事后又感到后悔。

Women of achievement一、阅读理解You may not think it very much—a used ice cream tub(纸杯) on the beach,a cigarette butt in the sand. But these little pieces of litter amount to around8.8 million tons of trash in the world's oceans, poisoning and choking sealife, according to figures from the World Wildlife Foundation.Now, in a set of images titled The Price Of Convenience by Waters has shown the destroying effects that casual littering has on creatures. In one image called “your convenience is their extinction”, a sea turtle's shell is hollowed out(掏空) and filled with banana skins, soda cans, and other debris.“It is shocking the amount of trash in the oceans,” Waters, 23, said, describing his project which he has begun a campaign to the WWF. “When you leave litter on the beach,you are treating the ocean like a trash can. When you throw trash over the side of a boat, you're treating the ocean like a trash can. And when you leave litter at a beach festival or party, it's the same.Obviously it would be impossible to clean the oceans but I felt I had to try something.”Waters explained that he, like many other Westerners, has always been aware of environmental concerns but did not begin to do something about i.The turning point came as he visited Malaysia with his girlfriend last year. He reached the shore to find piles of trash.But it was beautiful, the smell of the air, of the ocean.I had a strong feeling for it after I started researching trash in the ocean. A few months later, he came across the video of a sea turtle in obvious agony(痛苦) with a drinking straw stuck up its nostrils(鼻孔).That video inspired the first of Waters' three images. “Sea turtles are such gentle creatures. I felt sick watching that video.Trash left on a beach by humans caused so much pain and suffering.These animals don't have voices so we've got to speak up for them.” he added.Waters has not yet received a response from WWF regarding his images.For now, he says, he is inspired to develop more campaigns that raise awareness of environmental concerns.1.What can be found in the sea turtle's shell according to the passage?A.Some ice cream.B.Some drawings.C.Some litter.D.Some creatures.2.Why did the turtle in the video seem very painful?A.Because its nostrils were full of cigarette butts.B.Because it had been poisoned and seemed to be dying.C.Because most of its body parts had been injured seriously.D.Because there was a drinking straw stuck up its nostrils.3.Water's trying something aims to ________.A.make the polluted ocean bee cleanB.remind people awareness of ocean pollutionC.improve his skill of drawing picturesD.get some support from the WWF参考答案：1.C; 2.D; 3.B解析：1.[细节理解题。

Women of achievement李仕才一、阅读理解Aging brings wrinkles, sagging bodies and frustrating forgetfulness. But getting older is not all bad for many people. Mounting evidence suggests aging may be a key to happiness. There is conflicting research on the subject, however, and experts say it may all boil down to this: Attitude is everything.Older adults tend to be more optimistic and have a more positive outlook on life than their younger and stressed opposites. The big question is why seniors are happier.A recent study suggests one reason: Older adults remember the past through happy memories. Aging can bring more cheer as people become more comfortable with themselves and their roles in society. The older adults said they were enjoying more time with their family, spending more time on hobbies and having greater financial security and did not have to work.But others are doubtful about the link between happiness and growing older."The notion that those in old age are happiest is misleading," said Richard Easterlin, a professor of economics at the University of Southern California. "It is based on comparing people of different ages who are the same in terms of income, health, family life." Easterlin added, "When you take account of the fact that older people have lower income than younger, are less healthy, and more likely to be living alone, then you will find it hard to accept that they are happier.In fact, scientists have found that as people age, their health declines and social networks disappear as their friends die, which can make the elderly less happy.Even if one does give in to age's dark side, health and happiness don't always go hand-in-hand. It's all about attitude. Research by the University of Chicago’s Yang suggests that attitude about life and happiness, is partly shaped by the era in which a person was born. It turns out that individuals who adapt the best to changes also have the highest expected levels of happiness.Despite the conflicting findings about aging and happiness, the good news is that there doesn’t appear to be a limit to how much happiness one can achieve in one’slife. “Most people desire happiness,” Easterlin said. “To my knowledge, no one has identified a limit to attainable happiness.”1.What does the last paragraph mainly tell us?A. The key factor to older adults’ happinessB. There is a conflict between aging and happinessC. No one can define the limit to happiness.D. The relationship between health and happiness.2.Why are some seniors happier according to some experts?A. They focus on what makes them feel good.B. They have their own circle of friends.C. They have better income after retirement.3.What can we learn from the passage?A. People of the same age have the same sense of happiness.B. Attitude may play a very important role in happiness.C. People who adapt the best to changes are more likely to be unhappy.D. Older adults who have more valuable life experience are more optimistic.4.What’s the topic discussed in the passage?A. Whether aging or attitude brings happiness.B. Why seniors adapt the best to changes in society.C. What the limit to an elder person’s happiness is.D. How older people feel compared with younger people.【文章大意】随着年龄的增加变老，人们的幸福感也是不一样的。
