While help has always been available for Emma, Alison and her husband also have to fight to get Cameron the support he needs. ＂People could see that Emma has special needs but because Cameron was doing so well at school, his teachers never thought there was a problem with him.＂ says Alison.It took Alison and her husband a while to realize their son was different. Cameron’s ability didn’t become clear until he began primary school. Once he even corrected the teacher when she told the class that zero was the lowest number. Cameron told her she was wrong because there were negative numbers (负数). He was four at the time. Now 14-year-old Cameron is at secondary school, studying for a distance learning math degree with the Open University, having sailed through his GCSE at 11 and his A-level at 12, achieving top grades.Bethany, another daughter of Alison, is bright too but not gifted.

The 22-year-old biology major at Huazhong University of Science and Technology found a job as an IT technician in Shanghai. ＂My experience in the club gave me another ‘diploma’,＂ said Mu. ＂More importantly, I found something I am good at and can make a living from.＂Now campuses (校园) around the country have started recruiting (招收) fresh faces for all kinds of clubs. Upperclassmen and experts suggest a hobby-based choice of clubs, which might have a lasting impact (影响)on one’s life and career. Zhang Ling did not get many chances to write stories as an environmental protection major at Jiangxi University of Science and Technology. But this changed when she joined the university broadcasting station. Her daily interviews with students and teachers expanded her horizons. Now she is determined to become a journalist on environmental issues with her degree in environmental protection. ＂Journalism changed my life track,＂ said the 22-year-old girl. ＂I only wanted to be a science teacher in a local senior high school. But now I am applying for a graduate school in journalism.＂Lan Yujie, a professor at Anhui University of Technology, regards Mu and Zhang as good examples of choosing ＂what I like＂ instead of ＂what is practical＂ in finding jobs and seeking further study. ＂Some freshmen don’t know what to choose,＂said Lan. ＂Just following a hobby and doing something you like can easily give you the experiences that make you happy and special.＂Lan further says that joining clubs should not necessarily have a purpose. As part of campus life, a club experience will impact one’s life and career in one way or another. ＂The point of clubs is to have as many diverse(多样的)experiences as possible so that students can explore more of their life,＂ said Lan.8.Why did Mu Yumin join the computer club?A. To get another diploma.B. To change his major.C. To find a good job.D. To have a good time.9.According to the text, joining the campus club has many advantages EXCEPT _________.A. offering you many pleasuresB. making you plan your career betterC. helping you make more friendsD. helping you get more life experiences10.What can we learn from Lan Yujie’s words in the last paragraph?A. Club experiences will affect students’ life and career.B. Students should be practical in finding jobs.C. Joining clubs should have a clear goal.D. Students will have a colorful campus life by joining clubs.11.What is the main idea of the text?A. How to change your major.B. Joining a campus club for a diploma.C. How to find a job after graduation.D. Joining a club to explore more of your life.DMonty Hempel is a professor of environmental sciences at Redlands University in California. He studies ecological literacy —or eco-literacy, for short. Eco-literacy is the ability to think about and understand the natural processes that make life possible.Monty Hempel says eco-literacy gives people knowledge about environmental problems. But he says it does not always work on getting them to change their behavior.Mr. Hempel wrote part of the Worldwatch Institu te’s latest State of the World report. He says in his article, ＂Some people think that eco-literacy is just a green form of science literacy. And what I have tried to ask is whether that’s enough. In other words, what an ecologically-literate person needs to know might include things like the effect of environmental pollution on ecosystem, the energy systems, and all of those kinds of things that we would call the science of ecology.＂＂That doesn’t seem to lead to action to protect our environment — to protect our life-support system to the level that we need to. Just knowing a lot about theenvironment doesn’t mean that we actually act to save it. After all, actions speak louder than knowledge. ＂He adds that people may not be very worried about environmental problems if they seem far away. ＂Some people call it psychological distance. A lot of climate issues are worse in the Arctic and most of us don’t spend time in the Arctic. And so, there’s a certain distance. But there’s also a distance that’s happening in the world as it urbanizes — people spending more time in front of screens and less time out in nature. We become, if you will, disconnected from the natural systems that used to be the key to success for a human being. ＂To help children discover the wonders of nature, he adds that children should learn about nature in school. But he also points out we have a high mountain for people to climb from knowledge to action.12.From what Monty Hempel says in Paragraph 3, we learn that _________.A. knowledge on environmental protection is not enoughB. knowledge that children learn at school is uselessC. eco-literacy can help people understand how nature worksD. people with enough knowledge will protect the environment well13.What is especially important for environmental protection in Mr. Hempel’s opinion?A. Knowledge.B. Action.C. Green living.D. Psychological distance.14.Mr. Hempel thinks people show no concern about some environmental problems because .A. they lack knowledge on environmental protectionB. they have no awareness of environmental protectionC. some environmental problems are not worse at allD. some environmental problems happen far away15.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. Experts think it is the best way to learn nature in school.B. Climbing a high mountain is a good way to exercise well.C. Changing people’s attitude to environmental protection is hard.D. Knowledge can help children take action to protect the environment.第二节 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)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。

领兑市安插阳光实验学校Unit 2 Working the land阅读理解·组块专练——练速度(限时：35分钟)Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2017·高中毕业班高考适性测试)Last Friday, 6yearold Landon Johnson went to the RiverTown Crossings Mall in Grandville with his family. While there, the boy and his cousins took turns chatting with Santa, sharing their Christmas desires.After telling the man in red he wanted a Wii, atoy dinosaur and a remote control car, Landon hoppedoff Santa's lap to rejoin his family. But a few momentslater, he raced back to Santa's side: he'd forgotten to tell him something important. Specifically, Landon shared his worry with Santa that his autism (自闭症) would land him on the “naughty list”．His mom, Naomi Johnson, explained to WOODTV this week that Landon is often told he's “naughty” by people who mistake his autism for bad behavior. “You get the stares when you're at the grocery store if he's too loud，” Johnson said. “He's been told by other people before, ‘You don't need to be so naughty，’ or ‘Why are you naughty？’．”Johnson says Santa took the time to listen to Landon's worries, and held the boy's hands all the while. “Santa sat him next to him and took Landon's hands in his and started rubbing them, calming them down. Santa asked Landon if it bothered him, having Autism? Landon said yes, sometimes. Then Santa told him it shouldn't. It shouldn't bother him to be who he is，” Johnson said.Landon told Santa that he sometimes “gets in trouble at school and it's hard for people to understand that he has autism”， but that he's “not a naughty boy”．“You know I love you and the reindeer love you and it's OK. You're a good boy，” Santa told WOODTV about the chat with Landon. “You're a good boy, you know.”Johnson said she was incredibly moved by Santa's thoughtful words. “This stranger in a red suit told m y son the same message I've been trying to get through to him for a while now — that he's special and I lovehim just the way he was made，” the mom told . “Seeing Landon's face light up in that moment was just incredible. I couldn't stop crying.H e was the real Santa Claus.”语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。

Unit 2 Working the landⅠ.阅读理解As Leonardo da Vinci’s interests were varied,his research covered a great range,including various aspects of applied mechanics(应用力学).Therefore,some of his biographers think such a man,having great artistic genius,would “waste”precious years of his life on such a “lowly” pursuit as engineering.To appreciate Leonardo’s contribution to technology,one need only examine his analysis of the main problem of technology.In Leonardo’s time,the main burden of human industry still relied on the muscles of humans and animals.But little attention was given to analyzing this primitive muscle power so that it could be used most effectively for the required tasks.Against this background,Leonardo’s approach to work was revolutionary.When he searched for the most efficient ways of using human muscle power,the force of every leg and arm was analyzed and measured.Consider Leonardo’s painstaking approach to the construction of canals.After analysis of constructing a particular canal by hand,he concluded that the only reasonable solution was to mechanize the whole operation.Then he considered and finally abandoned numerous plans in the course of the construction.Having systematically rejected several solutions in this way,Leonardo began to consider using a system of cranes (吊车).Power was again his main concern.To activate a crane,the only transportable motor available at the time would have been a treadmill(踏车).This is not to suggest that Leonardo invented the treadmill.However,it was Leonardo who first used the principle of the treadmill reasonably and in accordance with engineering principles.Because Leonardo’s insights were sometimes so far beyond the standards of his time,their importance to the development of modern engineering is often undervalued.Many scholars,in fact,still refused to concede that Leonardo was one of our earliest and most significant engineers.1.Why does the author consider Leonardo’s approach to work “revolutionary” in Paragraph 2?A.Because he attempted to replace humans and animals with machines.B.Because he adapted traditional solutions to previously impossible tasks.C.Because he studied muscle power in a way that no one had used before.D.Because he moved the main burden of industry from human to animal power.2.Which of the following can best describe Leonardo?A.Cautious but anxious.B.Considerate but painful.C.Cooperative and efficient.D.Determined and creative.3.What does the underlined word “concede” in the last paragraph mean?A.Admit.B.Prove.C.Explain.D.Revalue.语篇解读:本文是议论文。

入舵市安恙阳光实验学校Unit 2 Working the land阅读理解·组块专练——练速度(限时：35分钟)Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2016·青岛高三自主诊断)My dad is the kind of parent that has to know where I am and what time I’ll be home. He is strict with me because he cares about me more than anything in the world. My dad’s strictness comes from the way he was raised. He grew up working long hours on his family farm and his dad would throw wooden boards at him when he did something wrong. In high school, my dad woke up at four in the morning to get his chores (日常杂务) done and walked to school so that he would make it to basketball practice by five. After school he went home to start a long night of chores.On top of all the responsibilities my dad had at home, he played three sports and went to school. School would have been easy, but my dad had dyslexia (诵读困难)．Every teacher my dad had thought that he was just unable to learn. My dad struggled in school until one teacher took the time to sit down and teach him how to read and write. To this day my dad tells me how grateful he is to that teacher who gave him a chance.The best part about my dad is his attitude toward our family. When he comes home from a terrible day at work, he always puts a smile on his face because he knows the family is a lot more important than his own problems.I know that I get my best qualities from my dad. He has shown me that with hard work I can accomplish something, and have fun while doing it.I know that my dad has strict rules because he loves me and wants me to learn responsibility.语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。

I was barely 10 years old when my dad gave me the responsibility (责任) of feeding the chickens and cleaning up the stable. He believed it was important for me to have those jobs to learn responsibility. Then, when I was 22, I found a job in Natchbill at a country music club called the Natchbill Palace, I washed dishes and cooked from 4: 00 pm to 9: 00 pm and then went on stage and sang until 2:00 in the morning. It wasn ’t long before I became known as a singing cook. I had been rejected so many times by record companies that it was hard not to be discouraged. One night, a woman executive (懂事) from a company named Warner Brothers Records came to hear me sing. When the show was over, we sat down and talked and after she left, I said to myself it was one more rejection. A few weeks later, my manager received a phone call — Warner Brothers wanted to sign me to a record deal. Soon after, I released my first record in June 1986. It sold over 2 million copies. My best efforts had gone into every job I ’ve ever held. It was the sense of responsibility that made me feel like a man. Knowing that I had done my best filled me with pride. I still feel that way today, even though I have become a well-known singer.46. Why was the writer once known as the singing cook?A. Because he was a cook at a country-music club.B. Because he sang for guests while he worked as a cook.C. Because he often sang while cooking.D. Because he liked singing better than cooking.47. Who first recognized his talents and helped make his career successful?A. Wamer Brothers.B. His manager.C. His father.D. A businesswoman.48. What made the writer proud of himself?A. His ability to live independently.B. His sense of responsibility in he did.C. His courage in the face of rejections.8D. His hard work in his early days.BSome people make you feel comfortable when they are around. You spend an hour with them and feel as if you have known them half your life. These people have something in common. And once we know what it is, we can try to do it ourselves.How is it done? Here are several skills that good talkers have. If you follow the skills, they ’ll help you put people at their ease, and make friends with them quickly.First of all, good talkers ask questions. Almost anyone, no matter how shy he is, will answer a question. One well-known businesswoman says, “At business lunches, I always ask people what they did that morning. It ’s a common question, but it will get things going.” From there you can move on to other matters —sometimes to really personal questions. And how he answers will let you know how far you can go.Second, once good talkers have asked questions, they listen to the answers. This point seems clear, but it isn ’t. Your questions should have a point and help to tell what sort of person you are talking to. And to find out, you really have to listen carefully and attentively.Real listening at least means some things. First it means not to change the subject of conversation. If someone sticks to one topic, you can take it as a fact that he ’s really interested in it. Real listening also means not just listening to words, but to tones of voice. If the voice sounds dull, then, it ’s time for you to change the subject.Finally, good talkers know well how to deal with the occasion of parting. If you ’re saying good-bye, you may give him a firm handshake and say, “I ’ve really enjoyed meeting you.” If you want to see that person again, don ’t keep it a secret. Let people know what you feel, and they may walk away feeling as if they ’ve known you half their life.49. Asking questions might be a quite good and suitable way _______.A. for you to make more and more new friendsB. to begin your business talksC. to get the conversation going smoothly9D. for you to make a deep and lasting impression on others50. After having asked somebody a question, it ’ll be polite of you to _______.A. make clear what kind of person he isB. listen to his reply attentivelyC. wait quietly and patiently for his answerD. go on asking him more questions51. Generally speaking, good talkers are persons who _______.A. are good at making any topic interestingB. never talk too much or too littleC. always speak in a gentle wayD. know how and when they should change the topic of the talk52. If you really take delight in meeting someone again, _______.A. you may take him as your lifelong trustworthy friendB. it seems necessary for you to let him know itC. it ’s proper for you to give him a second handshakeD. it ’ll be helpful for you to have further understanding of himC__53__ .Being angry doesn ’t really solve much, but what people do when they feel angry is important. The goal is to calm down and try to solve what is bothering you. This is hard for some kids and adults, too. Instead of calming down, some kids might keep getting more and more upset until they explode like a volcano!10__54___ .Their anger might be so strong that they lose control of their temper. They may act in ways unacceptable and hurtful. People may say that someone has trouble controlling their temper.__55___Some kids might get so angry that they scream at their parents, break something , or even worse , hit their brothers or sisters._56____ .However, it ’s not OK for a kid to do any of those things .Kids don ’t want to act in this way , but sometimes angry feelings can be hard to manage. So what to do?Well, the good news is that kids don ’t just have to keep making the same mistakes over and over again.__57___ .Imagine your temper as a puppy inside you that needs some training. The puppy is not bad ---- it will probably turn out a great dog. It just needs to learn some rules because, right now, that puppy is causing some problems to you.A. You can train you temper.B. You don ’t want to cause trouble.C. Kids should be allowed to express their feelings, even angry ones.D. Everybody gets angry sometimes.E. In fact, they usually mean that a kid behaves badly when feeling angry.F. Instead of thinking of the person you ’re angry with, think of something else.G. Some kids get angry more often or more easily than some other kids.IV 短文改错文中共有10处语言错误，每句中最多有两处。

入舵市安恙阳光实验学校Unit 2 Working the land(建议用时：35分钟)Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2020·沈阳高三质监)China is a large producer and consumer of rice. But, as a result of climate change, the amount of land available for rice growing in the country is shrinking. The concern has motivated scientists led by Yuan Longping，known as “the father of hybrid rice”， to look for new ways of growing the grain.Now they’re celebrating successful efforts to grow rice—in sand and seawater. Rice is traditionally grown in soil and fresh water. Starting from January, according to the official Xinhua News Agency, the scientists have grown dozens of varieties of rice in the deserts of Dubai. They experimented with seawater because it is easier to obtain in the desert than fresh water.China is not the only country facing the issue of overly salty soil. Around the world, there are around 2.35 billion acres of highly saline(含盐的) land. And the number is increasing because of rising sea levels and climate change.“Probably only a small part of the world’s saline land could be brought into production with seawater rice，but that would still have a very important effect on food security，” Even R. Pay, a senior analyst, said.Yuan told Xinhua that one of the varieties of rice grown in Dubai produced over three tons, per acre, which Yuan said was beyond expectations.Rice is the basic food in many parts of the world. About 90% of rice consumption is from Asia, but demand in Africa and Latin America is on the rise.A climate change researcher said the successful experiment could potentially benefit many countries. “This is a fantastic development, which is likely to have a good effect on agricultural resource and water poor countries, particularly in North Africa region.”Even though the cost of growing salttolerant rice is still high，it will also have strategic value once it’s commercialized.【解题导语】本文主要介绍了在“杂交水稻之父”袁隆平带领下的科学家们进行了在沙子和海水中种植水稻的试验。

when he arrived at the palace, if he brought good news.However, if the exhausted runner had the misfortune to bring the pharaoh unhappy news, his head would be cut off.Shades of that spirit spread over today's conversations.Once a friend and I packed up some peanut butter and sandwiches for an outing.As we walked lightheartedly out of the door, picnic basket in hand, a smiling neighbor looked up at the sky and said, “Oh boy, a bad day for a picnic.The weatherman says it's going to rain.” I wanted to strike him on the face with the peanut butter and sandwiches.Not for his stupid weather report, but for his smile.Several months ago I was racing to catch a bus.As I breathlessly put my handful of cash across the Greyhound counter, the sales agent said with a broad smile, “Oh, that bus left five minutes ago.” Dreams of headcutting!It's not the news that makes someone angry.It's the unsympathetic attitude with which it's delivered.Everyone must give bad news from timeto time, and big winners do it with the proper attitude.A doctor advising his patient that she needs an operation does it in a caring way.A boss informing an employee he fails to get the job takes on a sympathetic tone.Big winners know, when delivering any bad news, they should share the feeling of the receiver.Unfortunately, many people are not aware of this.When you're tired from a long flight, has a hotel clerk cheerfully said that your room isn't ready yet? When you had your heart set on the toasted beef, has your waiter merrily told you that he just served the last piece? It makes you as a traveler or diner want to land your fist right on their unsympathetic faces.Had my neighbor told me of the upcoming rainstorm with sympathy, I would have appreciated his warning.Had the Greyhound salesclerk sympathetically informed me that my bus had already left, I probably would have said, “Oh, that's all right.I'll catch the next one.” Big winners, when they bear bad news, deliver bombs with the emotion the bombarded (被轰炸的) person is sure to have.1．From “Dreams of headcutting！” (Paragraph 3), we learn that the writer ________．A．was reminded of the cruel pharaohB．was mad at the sales agentC．wished that the sales agent would have bad dreamsD．dreamed of cutting the sales agent's head that night2．Which of the following is TRUE?A.The author really appreciated the neighbor's warning.B．From the passage we know that it is the bad news that makes someone angry.C．If the runner brought the pharaoh unhappy news, he would be treated like a prince.D．When we want to deliver any bad news, we should share the feeling of the receiver.3．In the writer's opinion, his neighbor was ________．A．not helpful B．not considerateC．friendly D．warmhearted4．What is the main idea of the text?A．Receiving bad news requires great courage.B．Helping others sincerely is the key to business success.C.Delivering bad news with sympathy is important in communication.D．Learning ancient traditions can be useful.Unit 2 Working the land能力检测一、1.regretted 2.equipping 3.production4．freedom 5.confused 6.on 7.have expanded8．to explain 9.to focus plaining二、1.is→are 2.that→what 3.去掉to4．struggle→struggling 5.lead后加to6．him→himself 7.to→on8.去掉out9．thanks→due 10.focus→focusing三、本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了作者的撒哈拉沙漠之旅，作者意识到旅游是要体验一个地方的真正精神，同时伴随着惊喜和失望。

But is it really true that the wolf stands for devil and ugliness ？Have you read the book “The Wolf Totem” by a famous writer Jiang Rong, which tells the story of the relationship between wolves and human beings? Have you ever 26 the wolves' world? If you had, you would 27 the wolves.In the book, wolves are heroes on the large grassland. They know more about 28 than humans. They can attack lambs without disturbing their mothers. They also know how to 29 full use of the shape of land to 30 sheep. I believe that if wolves were humans, they wouldbe 31 experts good at fighting.The wolf is a kind of special creature that can deeply understand 32 . Each wolf serves its group with its heart and soul. A 33 wolf has little power, but a pack of wolves 34 nothing. All the wolves obey the rules. 35 they are defeated, they run away together. It is their teamwork 36 makes wolves powerful.The wolves also have great self-respect and won't 37 to anyone. The writer, who wrote the book “The Wolf Totem”,38 stole a one-month-old baby wolf and raised it very carefully. To his 39 , he found the little wolf still wanted to go back with 40 wolves. He bit through the iron chain that limited him. The wolf was 41 and he never gave in, fighting 42 his death.

Once MP3 music is on your PC’s hard drive, you can play it through your computer’s speakers, “burn” it onto blank CDs or exchange MP3 files with friends using E-mail.How much?Software needed to play and convert MP3 music is often free. It comes preinstalled on most new computers or can be downloaded from manywebsites, including MP3. com. Some MP3 sites are free. Just type “MP3 sites” into any search engine. The popular MP3 players start at around $50and can hold hundreds of songs. A blank CD on which you can record music costs about a dollar.AdvantagesMP3 turns your home PC into a tape recorder.
