课时作业(三十六)题型组合练——练速度(限时:30分钟)Ⅰ.阅读理解AA new study by the British government has discovered the mental health of the country's teenage girls has become worse.The survey, which included 30,000 14-year-old students in 2005 and 2014, showed 37 percent of girls with psychological stress, up from 34 percent in 2005. British boys' stress level was actually seen to fall over the same time period, from 17 percent to 15 percent.The report's authors pointed out the “advent of the social media age” could be a major contributing factor for increased stress among teenage British girls.“The adolescent years are a time of rapid physical,cognitive (认知的) and emotional development,”Pam Ramsden, a lecturer in psychology at the University of Bradford in the United Kingdom, wrote in a recent blog post.“Teenagers interact with people in order to learn how to become competent (有能力的)adults. In the past, they would engage with parents, teachers and other adults in their community as well as extended family members and friends. Now we can also add social media to that list of social and emotional development.”Throughout adolescence, girls and boys develop characteristics like confidence and self-control. Since teenage brains have not completely developed, teens don't have the cognitive awareness and impulse (冲动)control to keep from posting inappropriate content. Furthermore, this content can easily be spread far and wide with disastrous influences.Social media can also feed into girls'insecurities about their appearance, Ramsden said. These sites are often filled with images of people with body type unattainable to the normal person. However, these images and the messages tied to them gradually become societal standards.[语篇解读]一项新研究发现,英国少女的心理健康状况变得更糟;分析表明,社交媒体时代的到来可能是造成英国少女心理压力加大的主要因素。

because each one was run by a central city such as Florence.Some were small;some were large.Most states had their own government,laws and money.During the Middle Ages,five city states became very rich and powerful.For example,Venice became rich from its trade with the Far East,theMediterranean and the rest of Europe.Banks in Florence lent money to businesses and governments all over Europe.There was great competition between the city states—which led to regular wars—and between the families which ruled them.The city states also competed with each other to build the grandest or tallest buildings.Let’s look in detail at one city—Florence.In 1400 Florence was one of the largest cities in Italy.It was the centre of a rich trade in wool and cloth.One-third of the workers in Florence worked in the wool trade.The most powerful family in Florence was the Medici family,who had made their mone y through banking.The most famous member of the family was Lorenzo de’ Medici who ruled the city between 1469 and 1492.The other powerful people who had influence in Florence were the members of the guilds (行业协会).Craftsmen such as carpenters each had their own guild.If you were a member of a guild and over 25 years old then you could be involved in governing the city.The rulers of Florence wanted their city to be impressive and famous.The Medici collected books and built a huge library to house them.They spent money on renovating (修复) old buildings and putting up new ones.They built a splendid palace and employed painters and sculptors to decorate it.Some of the best and most famous artists were brought to work in Florence.1.What do we know about the city states?A.They ruled themselves.B.They were made up of five cities.C.They didn’t trade with each other.D.They disappeared during the Middle Ages.2.The relationship between the city states can be described as .A.strongB.inflexibleC.unfriendlyD.cooperative3.According to the text,the Medici family .A.created their own guildB.contributed a lot to FlorenceC.was the single ruler of FlorenceD.became rich through doing woodwork4.Why did some artists go to Florence?A.Because there was great demand for art in Florence.B.Because there were many famous artists in Florence.C.Because Florence was well-known for its art trade.D.Because other cities had no interest in art.B(2016·广东五校协作体第一次联考)WelcometoAdventureland!Everyone loves Adventureland!The parks and exhibitions were built for you to explore,enjoy,and admire their wonders.Every visit will be an unforgettable

2019年人教高考英语一轮练习题:选修8U1含答案一、阅读理解。
Much information can be conveyed,purely through our eyes, so the expression “eyes also talk”is often heard.Can you recall any experience that further proves this statement?On a bus you may quickly glance at a stranger,but not make eye contact.If he senses that he is being stared at,he may feel uncomfortable.It is the same in daily life.If you are stared at for more than necessary,you will look at yourself up and down to see if there is anything wrong with you. If nothing goes wrong,you will feel angry about other’s staring at you that way.Eyes do convey information,right?Looking too long at someone may seem to be rude and aggressive.But things are different when it comes to staring at the opposite sex.If a man looks at a woman for more than 10 seconds and refuses to turn away his gaze(注视),his intentions are obvious.That is,he wishes to attract her attention,to make her understand that he is showing affection for her.However,the normal eye contact for two people engaged in conversation is that the speaker will only look at the listener from time to time, in order to make sure that the listener does pay attention to what the former is speaking, to tell him that he is attentive.If a speaker looks at you continuously when speaking,as if he tries to control you, you will feel uneasy.A poor liar usually exposes himself by looking too long at the victim, since he believes the false idea that to look straight in the eye is a sign of honest communication.In fact, continuous eye contact happens between lovers only, who will enjoy looking at each other tenderly for a long time, to show love that words cannot express.Evidently, eye contact should be done according to the relationship between two people and the specific situation.【解题导语】本文介绍了“眼睛会说话”的观点,告诉我们不同场合的眼神交流所代表的不同含义。

课时练1阅读理解提速练Ⅰ阅读理解A(2018·湖北部分重点中学联考)Jon Hoffman was sitting at a red light when he saw a man run out of a store carrying a plastic donation jar full of cash.Dressed in plain clothes,Jon Hoffman caught the man and pressed him against the hood(引擎盖) of his car. But Hoffman had trouble controlling the thief,and they got into a struggle.“The detective has a military background,and he said he thought the suspect must have a military background,too,because he was able to break away so easily,” a local police spokesperson said.The detective called out for help as a crowd gathered. Among those watching were Harvey and Kirby,two day laborers.Harvey did what has become common these days—he took out his phone to shoot the video. “I hate to say it,but I thought that this policeman was doing something stupid,”Harvey said. “But when he asked for help,I thought,well,there wouldn’t be shooting if I got over there in time.”Harvey jumped into action,while he was still recording the video. So did Kirby.“Harvey caught hold of the suspect’s arms,while Kirby seized his legs,and they were able to get the suspect to the ground to help Detective Hoffman put the handcuffs(手铐) on,”said the police spokesperson. The 27-year-old suspect was charged with resisting arrest and other offenses. The charity jar he stole held less than $50.“I’ve been on the wrong side of the law several times in my life,”Harvey said. “It feels good to be on the right sid e and do something positive.”After the arrest,the three men got to know each other at a local steak house—Hoffman’s treat,as a thank you.【解题导语】本文是一篇新闻故事,讲述了一位侦探在两位临时工的协助下制服一名嫌疑人的过程.1.What made Hoffman call for help when arresting the suspect?A.He was not on duty.B.He couldn’t control the suspect.C.He needed witnesses to support him.D.He wanted to push the thief into the car.B解析:细节理解题.根据第一段的最后一句可知,Hoffman控制住那个嫌疑人有困难,并且他们扭打在一起.故选项B正确.2.What can be inferred about Harvey?A.He was ready to break the law.B.He was out of work at that time.C.He had a good military background.D.He might have had some illegal deeds.D解析:推理判断题.根据第六段中的“I’ve been on the wrong side of the law several times in my life”可知,Harvey曾经违反过法律,所以选项D “他可能有过一些违法行为”是正确的.3.What is Hoffman’s attitude towards Harvey and Kirby?A.Grateful.B.Prejudiced.C.Skeptical. D.Admirable.A解析:推理判断题.根据最后一段中的“Hoffman’s treat,as a thank you”可知,嫌疑人被捕后,Hoffman请Harvey和Kirby吃饭,作为对他们的感谢.所以选项A正确.B(2018·湖北八校高三联考)We do not usually think about how our language works.Talking is such a natural, everyday activity that we do not often stop to consider how it actually works.When we do study our language, though, we are often surprised that we are able to understand our conversations.Words can mean so many different things.However, it turns out that the speaking situation helps a lot in making language work.First, the speaking situation helps make words more particular.For example, the word “dog”can describe a dog that a speaker saw in a dream.It can also be used to discuss a neighbor’s dog.No language has a separate word for the idea “dog that I saw yesterday”and another word for the idea “dog that I saw in a dream”.This is because the speaking situation makes it clear what speakers mean when they use words.So, when you have a conversation with your neighbor, the knowledge that you have a dog tells your neighbor what the word “dog”probably means in that situation.The speaking situation also helps make language clearer.For example, the word “bank” has two possible meanings.It can mean “a place where people keep money”,but it can also mean “the side of a river”.So the sentence “I went to the bank”is not clear.It could mean I went to the side of the river or it could mean I went to the place where my money is kept.However, if the speaker is talking about fishing or going to the mountains, others probably know that “bank”means “the side of a river”.The things that speakers say may not always be clear.Sometimes the words are not very particular, but the speaking situation can provide the meaning.Other times words may have many meanings.Then the speaking situation limits the right meaning.This extra knowledge from the situation is very important to understand language.【解题导语】本文讲述了语境对语言的理解起着很大作用.4.The passage is mainly about ________.A.the best time and place to talk to othersB.how the speaking situation helps language workC.what to say in difficult situationsD.how our language worksB解析:主旨大意题.本文讲述了语境对语言的理解起着很大作用,故选B. 5.According to the passage, we can safely say that ________.A.the speaking situation does not affect the meaning of wordsB.speaking is not very natural for most peopleC.the speaking situation is not importantD.people often do not consider how talking worksD解析:细节理解题.根据第一段中的“We do not usually think about how our language works.Talking is such a natural, everyday activity that we do not often stop to consider how it actually works.”可知,故选D.6.By using the example of the word “dog”,the writer wants to show that ________.A.a word may need to be explained in a conversationB.a word may have different meaningsC.the speaking situation helps people understand the particular meaning of a wordD.the meaning of words is not particularC解析:推理判断题.根据第二段的第一句话“First, the speaking situation helps make words more particular.”和下文的“For example”可知,下文正是用dog一词举例来论证第二段的第一句话,故选C.7.According to the passage, we can know the meaning of the word “bank”by referring to ________.A.the time and the place where the conversation happensB.the occupation of the person who uses the wordC.earlier or later parts of the conversationD.a reliable dictionaryC解析:细节理解题.根据第三段所讲,作者用bank一词举例说明对话中这个词之前或之后的部分决定了这个词的含义,故选C.C(2018·济南模拟)A European Union program is letting blind peopleexperience famous paintings for the first time. It uses three-imensional(3-D) printing to recreate famous paintings so they can be touched.One painting printed with the new technology is Gustav Klimt’s“The Kiss”.It is a popular attraction at the Belvedere Museum in Vienna, Austria. The painting shows a man and a woman standing in a field filled with flowers. They are wearing gold robes and have their arms around each other. The man leans down to kiss the woman.Klimt finished the painting in 1908. Until now, people who had trouble seeing could not appreciate the artwork. But thanks to the reproduction they can touch the piece and feel the ridges and depressions. Andreas Reichinger started making 3-D versions of artwork in 2010. He said this reproduction was his most difficult project because the couple’s robes are so detailed.Dominika Raditsch is a blind museum visitor. She touched the reproduction. As she moved her hands around it she said, “Exactly, can you see these? There are so many details.”Raditsch said she could imagine what the original painting looks like when she touched the reproduction. “It’s somehow round. You can feel it. You can feel it. It comes with it. And in many places it’s so smooth. And then I think to myself: it probably shines too!” Raditsch said.The Belvedere is not the only museum to have 3-D versions of its artwork. Some of the pieces at the Prado Museum, in Madrid, Spain have reproductions that can be touched.

You’ll eat more.Is your waitress overweight? You’ll eat more.A wide variety of food? You’ll eat more.Plates can decide how sweet dessert tastes.If people ate it off a paper plate, they’d say, “This is good.”If they ate it off a fancy silver plate, they would say, “This is the greatest cake I’ve eaten in my entire life.”Your knowledge about what makes food good or bad also affects how much you eat. You tend to eat more when you think the food is good, and less when you think it is bad.So Grandma’s cookies always taste better than other cookies.“Good fo od”even has a “health halo(光环) effect”.If we’re eating something healthy, we feel that everything in that meal is healthy.Due to this, people often believe that a cheese cake with a salad has fewer calories(卡路里) than the cheese cake alone.That’s perhaps also why eating organic(有机的) food might turn you into an annoying guy. Your brain may use anything that makes you feel good about your own morality to excuse your immoral behaviour.Food and hunger affect your judgment too.Hungry judges give more serious sentences. Kids who don’t eat breakfast behave worse than kids who eat their breakfast.People who have low blood sugar are more likely than the average person to have trouble concentrating and controlling their unpleasant emotions.【解题导语】本文主要介绍了哪些因素会导致人们吃得更多.12.What is mentioned as a cause of overeating?A.Suffering from great loneliness.B.Being served by a helpful waitress.C.Being treated to high quality food.D.Eating with many friends.D解析:细节理解题.根据第一段的“People eating with one other person eat 35 percent more than they do at home.”可知,和许多朋友一起吃饭是吃得多的一个原因,故D项正确. 13.According to the passage, an annoying person may be one who________.A.finds any excuse for eating moreB.is crazy about the quality of platesC.competes with others in making cookiesD.teaches people to stick to moralityA解析:推理判断题.根据第一段的内容和第三段中的“That’s perhaps also...your immoral behaviour.”可知,一个让人讨厌的人可能总会找到多吃的借口,故A项正确. 14.According to the passage, people are more likely to make a bad judgment when ________.A.they don’t feel hungryB.they aren’t overweightC.they have low blood sugarD.they know little about foodC解析:细节理解题.根据文章最后一段的“People who have low blood sugar are more likely than the average person to have trouble concentrating and controlling their unpleasant emotions.”可知,低血糖的人比常人更难以集中注意力和控制自己的情绪,判断力会更差,故C项正确.15.What would be the best title for the passage?A.When Can’t We Go on a Diet?B.What Affects Eating?C.How to Make Good FoodD.Where to Find Safe FoodB解析:标题归纳题.通读全文可知,本文的主题句是第一段的第二句“Often you eat not because you are hungry, but because you are affected by many other things.”,结合下文内容可知,本文主要介绍影响吃饭的因素,故B项最能概括文章大意.Ⅱ七选五(2018·云南三校高考适应性考试)Unless you think you’re the smartest, who doesn’t want to be smarter? Of course I want to be smarter too.So I try to find out who’s the real smart guy that maybe I can learn from.1.________They probably do social media.Not always, but probably.2.________ They also use this to ensure they can feed their brains with things they otherwise wouldn’t have come across.3.________ They never bother their head about the problem of “work-life balance” and somehow manage to seem 100% engaged in what they’re doing, on all fronts simultaneously(同时), even though you know they’re taking appropriate steps behind the scenes to make sure their lives are well balanced.They know they are the smartest in the room, but they don’t spend much time talking about that.4.________ That is, they challenge themselves to make everyone else in the room the smartest person too.They never, ever, under any circumstances, make you look stupid, even though it would be easy to do so.They’ve learnt through bitter experience that the only thing that happens when you make someone look bad is that you look bad yourself.If they are managers, they will make every effort to get people more connected and more popular than them in their teams.5.________ They’re not threatened because they know that smartness is synergistic (相互促进的).A.It’s not only a chance to listen.B.They know it is an advantage to them.C.They take it as a personal challenge instead.D.They will be smiling even when things go wrong.E.Now I’ve got an answer about whether someone’s smart.F.They also ensure their smart people look smarter than them.G.They deal with home, work and personal interests perfectly.【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了聪明人的特征.1. E解析:本空承接上文,并引出下文内容,空前提到“So I try to find out who’s the real smart guy that maybe I can learn from.”,下文罗列了一些聪明人的特征,故本空填E项“现在我对一个人是否聪明已经有答案了”.2.A解析:根据语境可知,下句中的“this”指代的是“a chance to listen”,而且A项中的“not only”与下句中的“also”呼应,故A项符合语境.本空易错选B项,但如果对他们来说是有利的,空前就不会说“Not always, but probably.”了.3.G解析:本空总结本段的内容,是本段的主旨句.根据下文中的“work-life balance”“make sure their lives are well balanced”可知,本段讲的聪明人的特征就是“他们能完美地处理家庭、工作和个人爱好(之间的关系)”,G项符合语境.4.C解析:下文中的“they challenge themselves”与C项中的“as a personal challenge”相呼应.5.F解析:根据上文中的“they are managers”及“they will make every effort to...than them intheir teams”与F项的“ensure their smart people look smarter than them”相呼应.课时练2知识运用板块练Ⅰ完形填空(2018·西宁检测)Many students often say that they don’t have “enough time”to do all their schoolwork.

Ⅰ阅读理解A(2018·广西适应性检测)Where should an adventurous tourist go? Afteryou’ve done sightseeing in London,shopping in New York,tasted the localfood in Paris,and danced to your heart’s content at the Brazilian Carnival,where else can you go? What exotic(异国风情的) tourist destination awaitsyou?Well,Antarctica sounds like the holiday of a lifetime! It’s considered the last great wilderness on Earth.Just a few scientists in research stations share the icy landscape with penguins and other animals which can cope with the low temperatures.Tourism began in Antarctica in the 1950s and it’s still a small scale.About 37,000 tourists are expected there this season,but many won’t even leave the boat.The BBC’s Juliet Rix visited the frozen continent and asked herself if she should be there at all,causing potential problems to such a sensitive environment.Her tour guide admitted that all visitors leave footprints and they all go to the same place,the accessible coastline,which is also where the penguins and seals go to breed.But some people believe that if carefully controlled,tourism can be good for Antarctica.It has no native population and it needs advocates.Visitors to the icy continent might be ready to support and even to fund its preservation.And they’re likely to engage in the discussion about global warming,which has led to the melting of glaciers.According to Rix,guidelines are followed when you’re about to set foot in Antarctica and tourists have to disinfect (为……消毒) their boots to make sure no alien species are introduced.And once on land,there’s no eating or smoking.Rocks,bone fragments—nothing should be taken as a souvenir and nothing should be left behind.Tourists fortunate enough to visit Antarctica must be aware that this is not their home and keep their fingers crossed that future generations will also be able to enjoy such breathtaking views.【解题导语】游客应该去南极洲旅游吗?本文介绍了去南极洲旅游的情况和对游客的要求。
