阅读强化训练(一)[学生用书P157(单独成册)](建议用时:15分钟)Ⅰ阅读理解It is saddening to learn that fewer of us now own pets.According to Mintel, just 56% of UK households todayinclude a pet, compared with 63% in 2012. It is down toour smaller homes. The housing crisis(危机) is taking awayone of our life’s joys: pets.Pets can help us get over serious illness. Pets lessen our anxiety. Pets can be a godsend for people experiencing various forms of mental disorders. As if all that were not enough, pets also help their owners get a date because of complex psychological reasons.There do, of course, remain oppositions to the very idea of pets. The charity PETA puts it thus: “This selfish desire to own animals and receive love from them causes immeasurable suffering, which results from selling or giving them away casually, and taking away their opportunity to enjoy their natural behaviour.”This is undoubtedly true in some situations. But seen from a different point of view, there’s something quite lovely about the story of people and their companion animals.What was once a relationship based only on the animal’s functional effects —its ability to kill pests, guard houses and the like—has developed into something much more about care and love.We share 84% of our DNA with dogs. We share 90% of our DNA with mice, for goodness sake. I have no idea how that works. But still: pets remind us we’re part of something bigger. Pets break down the barriers between us and the animal kingdom. We may teach pets to roll over, stand up, shake hands and so on. But they teach us much more: that life is actually really quite short and so should be filled as much as possible with life-giving experiences.【解题导语】本文是一篇议论文。

阅读强化训练(一)[学生用书P141(单独成册)](建议用时:15分钟)Ⅰ阅读理解Friends are very important in our lives.Everyone needs friends.Ifyou don’t have friends,you’ll feel lonely.However,some people don’t try to build the friendships they’d like to have.Why?Some people don’t build friendships because they think they haveno time for that.Today many people live a very busy life,so it’s not strange that some people don’t think they have time for friendships.However,this is wrong.You should know that if you really want to do something,you can spare time for it,no matter how busy you are.My friend Tom used to think he had no time to build friendships.He was working almost all the time.However,one day,he realized that he didn’t have any friends in the city and became scared.He didn’t want to be lonely in the future.He decided to make a change.He didn’t bring home as much work as before.Instead,he went to a gym and started working out there.He not only became healthier,but also made some friends there.Some people don’t try to make friends because the idea of making new friends is scary to them.They’re afraid people will refuse to make friends with them.If someone does reject to make friends with you,it doesn’t mean that you’re useless or unlovable.Maybe they’re having a bad day.Ma ybe they don’t know you well.Or maybe they’re not a nice person.If you’ve been turned down by someone before,don’t think others will do the same to you.My friend David was afraid of making new friends,too,because he didn’t want to be turned down by others.But later he found some people were really nice. Slowly he made some good friends.Now he is no longer afraid of talking to new people and believes he can make more friends.So all you have to do is to believe you’ll make more friends and spare time for it.【解题导语】朋友对于我们每一个人来说都很重要,所以我们要去交一些朋友。

The experiment was designed by me and another student called Aisha,who to this day remains a very close friend of mine。
We chose to learn about the effect of antioxidants (抗氧化剂)on the growth of African violets(紫罗兰).We cloned a lot of African violets and planted them into baby food jars。
To learn about the effect of antioxidants,we decided to count the number of little baby leaves that appeared on the cloned leaf every day。
I was not sure why we decided to choose antioxidants to do the experiment。
We were just 14 after all and we didn’t know much about plants。

阅读强化训练(六)[学生用书P162(单独成册)](建议用时:25分钟)Ⅰ阅读理解In this day and age, knowing exactly what and how muchyou’re eating is necessary. You’ve probably used caloriecalculators(计算器) on your smartphones before. Forexample, a calculator will tell you the average number ofcalories in a hamburger. However, it acts only as a guide, and it can’t tell you exactly how many calories are in the hamburger at your favorite fast food joint. Now Panasonic’s new device, CaloRieco, can actually give you accurate information on exactly what is on your plate in a few seconds.Showcased at the CEATEC 2017 tech show, CaloRieco is a high-tech device that uses light reflection technology to offer accurate and expeditious calorie information so as to determine the nutritional values of any food. All you have to do is place your plate in the box-shaped device and wait between 10 and 20 seconds for it to analyze all the food there.Once it’s done analyzing the various foods in your meal, CaloRieco displays the number of calories, as well as the nutritional content on an LED display. According to Panasonic, the device is able to recognize the vast majority of foods, except soups and similar food. CaloRieco can also connect to your smartphone via an app, and send all the data about analyzed foods to your Personal Digital Assistant, so you can access it whenever you need.Panasonic said that its invention is aimed at people going on a diet and diabetes(糖尿病) sufferers, both of whom make up a sizable market. Unfortunately, you’ll have to wait a bit longer to get your hands on your very own CaloRieco, as the device presented at CEATEC is just a model. It’s scheduled to hit the market sometime in the next few years, but the price remains a mystery.【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了一款可以快速准确提供食物热量信息的最新设备。

Now 22, the musician will betravelling to the United States with the Australian ChamberOrchestra for the first time.Mr. Murray comes from an Aboriginal(土著的) community and said his love of the didgeridoo had grown out of his culture. He was taught by his father Lazarus Murray from a young age, but said he was also inspired by his grandfather Peter Apaak Jupurrula Miller. “My father learnt from David Blanasi. Then he taught me what he learnt from David,” he said.As the youngest member of a Tiwi Islander band called B2M (Bathurst to Melville) in the Northern Territory, Mr. Murray played the didgeridoo for the opening act of the Tina Arena Darwin concert in 2014. Now his didgeridoo skills have caught the attention of the Australian Chamber Orchestra, where he was invited to perform in the show The Reef Revisited, which will be touring the U.S. next week.“It’s exciting for me to be travelling over to America,” he said. Mr. Murray said there were challenges for young Aboriginal artists to break into the industry but said it is all about having the right attitude.Richard Tognetti, artistic director of the Australian Chamber Orchestra, said the team was excited to have Mr. Murray join the 25-person orchestra. “He’s bringing a really traditional approach. We respect the sound that he brings into the orche stra. We’re used to the sound of a didgeridoo but playing it in LA, New York and Richmond Virginia will be interesting for the audience,” he said.Another member of the orchestra, Aboriginal musician Steve Pigram, said he was proud of Mr. Murr ay’s achievement at such a young age. “He’s coming through that thing of performing in a reggae (popular music in the West Indies) rock band, same as what I did. But he’s got to this kind of level a little quicker. Well it’s taken me 40 years,” he said.【解题导语】本文是一篇记叙文。

姓名,年级:时间:阅读强化训练(八)[学生用书P164(单独成册)](建议用时:25分钟)错误!阅读理解The most wonderful time of t he year isn’t all that wonderful for those who hate opening presents in front of other people.Imagine it’s the Christmas morning. Your large family are looking at you because it's your turn to open a present. You try to make a response that will seem both grateful and genuine。
Instead, it comes across as awkward—even when you really like the present.According to the study by Professor Stefan Hofmann and Professor Mark Leary, this is a sign of ordinary social anxiety. Let’s explain some of the reasons why opening presents in front of others can make the gift opener so anxious.Some people just don’t like being the center of attention。
“Being the focus of everyone's attention puts pressure on people to be ‘perfect’ or follow social norms(规范). Everyone is more on their guard when lots of other people are watching,”Leary said。

阅读强化训练(七)(建议用时:25分钟)错误!阅读理解As dusk was approaching, we made our way down to the beach, as did everyone else. Some people had even brought along a picnic, a family day out. As it got darker, people became quiet and talked less, keeping an eye out on the beach.Suddenly there was movement at the edge(边缘) of the surf and all heads turned as one。
There, standing by the edge of the water was the smallest penguin we had ever seen. He looked left, then right, as if he was considering crossing a busy road and then he ran quickly across to the sand and the penguin burrows(洞穴).He must have been the scout,__because after him, there came groups of penguins: some consisted of two or three penguins and some had about ten or fifteen, but they all made that same mad dash across the sand into the burrows,as if they couldn’t get there fast enough. The crowd of penguin watchers was quiet,except for the occasional “oohs" and “ahs” from adults as well as children. The groups started to become fewer in number and finally no more penguins came from the sea。

阅读强化训练(十四)[学生用书P170(单独成册)](建议用时:25分钟)Ⅰ阅读理解The science of happiness has turned up evidence that food can make you happy. However, a lack of certain foods or at least some of their essential ingredients can actually make you sad.A fatty acid called docosahexaenoic acid(DHA)is the most plentiful fat found in the brain.It’s an essential ingredient for brain structure. It’s also easy to get; two major sources of DHA are fish and shellfish. A study by the National Institutes of Health(NIH)uncovered a link between lack of DHA and an increase in the prevalence(患病率) of depression in the United States.Other studies support the link the NIH found. One study turned up the fact that North American and European countries that don’t eat a lot of fis h have 10 times the prevalence of depression in their populations than does Taiwan, where fish is a main course of the popular diet.Strangely, while some foods have been shown to improve mood in the human brain, researchers have found that putting a limit on food intake can have an even more obvious effect on happiness. A hormone called ghrelin within the stomach heads over to the brain and tells it that it’s time to eat. When ghrelin is produced, you feel hungry. After you take food into the body, ghrelin production stops. When you don’t eat, however, ghrelin production continues and the hormone builds up in the brain. While the increased ghrelin will make your hunger last longer, researchers have found that the hormone also acts as a natural antidepressant(抗抑郁剂).Whether it’s psychological or physiological, it’s clear that foods have a powerful effect on our moods. It would appear that eating only nutrientpacked(富含营养的) foods that affect brain chemistry might be the best way to achieve happiness. But the occasional indulgence(放纵) should make you just as happy. Perhaps a healthy balance of nutritious foods and snacks can help keep the balance in a person’s mood best of all.【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文。

姓名,年级:时间:阅读强化训练(一)(建议用时:15分钟)Ⅰ阅读理解A group of scientists in the Netherlands recently used high-tech methods to examine a secret hidden inside an ancient Chinese statue(雕像). It was sent to the Drents Museum in the northeastern Netherlands as part of an exhibit。
But while working on the statue, researchers took the chance to study the body of a Buddhist monk(佛僧) inside it。
The statue was shipped to a medical center for CT scans, which are tests that produce X-ray pictures. Scientists used the technology to find out the statue’s hidden secrets。
The body of the monk was sitting on top of a roll of cloth marked with Chinese characters(字). The cloth shows that the monk was named Liu Quan and lived around the year 1100。
“On the outside, it looked like a large statue of Buddha," said Vincent van Vilsteren from the Drents Museum。

阅读强化训练(七)[学生用书P147(单独成册)](建议用时:25分钟)Ⅰ阅读理解If you want to become a fluent English speaker you should takesome advice: there are four skills in learning English. They are reading,listening,speaking,and writing. The most important thing you mustremember is that if you want to improve your speaking and writing skillsyou should first master the skills of reading and listening.Read as much as you can. But your reading must be active. It means that you must think about the meaning of the sentence,the meaning of the unfamiliar words,etc. There is no need for you to pay much attention to grammars or try to understand all the unfamiliar words you come across,but the fact that you see them for the first time and recognize them whenever you see them,for example in other passages or books,is enough. It would be better to prepare yourself a notebook so you can write down the important words or sentences in it.As for listening,there are two choices: besides reading,you can listen every day for about 30 minutes. You can only pay attention to your reading and become skillful at your reading,then you can catch up on your listening. Since you have lots of inputs in your mind,you can easily guess what the speaker is going to say. This never means that you should not practice listening.For listening you can listen to cartoons or some movies that are specially made for children. Their languages are easy. Or if you are good at listening you can listen to VOA or BBC programs every day. Again the thing to remember is being active in listening and preferably taking some notes.If you follow these pieces of advice,your speaking and writing will improve automatically,and you can be sure that with a little effort they will become perfect.【解题导语】本文介绍了如何通过提高阅读和听力,从而提高说和写的能力。

阅读强化训练(十)[学生用书P166(单独成册)](建议用时:25分钟)Ⅰ阅读理解I grew up in a middle-class neighborhood. It’s n otfamous for producing success stories, or CEOs. My childhoodwas fairly free and uncared-for. My parents only caredabout partying and themselves, which left me to figure outlife on my own.Being fairly successful now and living in a much better neighborhood, I still think about the days of working to buy my own school lunch. Even though growing up privileged(享有特权的) would have been great, there are so many things I wouldn’t trade from growing up poor.You had to learn to survive on your own. Your neighborhood was rough and full of people looking to take advantage of you. These experiences have made you stronger. You observe your environment, keep up your guard at any time, and learn to trust your courage. A Harvard education is an amazing thing, but street smarts will give you something that you can never learn from books.When you have nothing, your dreams fill the emptiness. You desire success, money, power, happiness, etc. You grew up watching rich people on TV and wanting to be someone like them. These dreams lead to passion, goals, and achievements. Even if you never make millions, you fulfill your dreams by doing better than your parents did, and going further in your career.From a very young age, you had to learn to budget for gas, food, weekend money, and clothes. You had to work harder for everything in your life, so you appreciated it more and it has taught you that work ethic(职业道德) is usually not a natural, but a learned thing. It’s hard to teach. When the privileged ones quit for the day, you didn’t, because for you there was no fall back plan or safety net. At the end of the day, you’ll do what it takes to survive.【解题导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。

姓名,年级:时间:阅读强化训练(七)[学生用书P147(单独成册)](建议用时:25分钟)错误!阅读理解Living a healthy lifestyle lies in forming the right eating habits。
Here are some of the good habits you can develop when it comes to healthy eating。
Drink plenty of water。
You must drink at least 8 glasses of water a day。
You may need even more water if you are in a hot environment or if you are exercising.Eat breakfast. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day。
A recent study has shown that those who eat breakfast will consume an average of 100 calories less during the day than their colleagues(同事) who skip breakfast. They will also be able to concentrate better.Don’t skip lunch. If you do so, your blood sugar level will drop and your metabolism(新陈代谢) will slow down. When you get home you are starving and eat everything you can find。
We all need to snack from time to time, but please choose your snacks carefully. In fact, it's a good idea to eat two healthy snacks besides your three main meals. Choose healthy snacks like fruits, low fat yogurt, cottage cheese with apple sauce。

Feeding wild polar bears is illegal in Canada, and even if it weren’t, feeding the bear would only prolong(延长) his sufferings.Nicklen said, “My entire team was controlling their tears and emotions while documenting this dying polar bear. It’s a heart-breaking scene that still makes me hurtful, but I know we need to share both the beautiful and the heartbreaking if we are going to break down the walls of indifference(冷漠).”“This is what starvation looks like. The muscles atrophy(萎缩). No energy. It’s a slow and painful death. When scientists say polar bears will be extinct in the next 100 years, I think of the global population of 25,000 bears dying in this manner.”“There is no quick solution. People think that we can put platforms in the ocean or we can feed the single starving bear. The simple truth is this—if the earth continues to warm, we will lose bears and entire polar ecosystems(生态系统).

We must reduce our carbon footprint, eat the right food, stop cutting down our forests, and begin protecting the Earth—our home —first.”【解题导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。
