He told Big Think, “We've made remarkable progress in the last hundred years. But if we want to continue beyond the next hundred years, our future is in space.”Getting to another planet will prove a challenge, not to mention colonizing it for humanity. Katherine Freese from University of Michigan told Big Th ink, “ the nearest star to Earth is Proxima Centauri which is 4.2 light years away. That means, if you were traveling at the speed of light the whole time, it would take 4.2 years to get there — or about 50,000 years using current rocket science.”1．Humans are advised to abandon Earth mainly because ________.A．aliens will take up our home planet soonB．it was discussed in the forum Big ThinkC．many scientists like Hawking are concerned about itD．many disasters will happen on Earth2．Thinking about the future of humans, Hawking feels that ________.A．humans can't live on Earth any longerB．Earth will not be habitable for humansC．other planets are ready for humans to reachD．aliens are the biggest future threat to humans3．What is the writer's key point in the last paragraph?A．It is impossible to get to another planet in space.B．It is urgent for Hawking to develop the space science.C．The near future can't see human's move to another planet.D．The planet Proxima Centauri is far away from Earth.4．This passage is most probably taken from ________.A．a conference interviewB．a science fictionC．a history bookD．a forum reportB(2014·江苏常州市水平检测)Beautiful people are indeed happier, a new study says, but not always for the same reasons. For handsome men, the extra kicks are more likely to come from economic benefits, like increased wages, while women are more likely to find joy just looking in the mirror. “Women feel that beauty is naturally important，” says Daniel Hamermesh, a University of Texas at Austi n labor economist and the study's lead author. “They just feel bad if they're ugly.”Hamermesh is the acknowledged father of pulchronomics, or theeconomic study of beauty. It can be a dangerous job. He once made angry an audience of young Mormon (魔门教) women, many of whom wished to stay home with future children, by explaining that homemakers tend to be less attractive than their workinggirl peers (同伴). “Since beautiful women tend to be paid more, they have more motivation to stay in the workforce，” he s ays.The pursuit of good looks drives several huge industries — in 2010, Americans spent $845 million on facelifts alone —but few economists focused on beauty's financial power until the mid1990s, when Hamermesh and his colleague, Jeff Biddle of Michi gan State University, became the first scholars to track the effect of appearance on earnings potential for a large sample (样本) of adults. Like many other desirable commodities (商品), “beauty is rare，” Hamermesh says, “and that rareness commands a price.”A handsome man is estimated to make 13 percent more during his career than a “lookschallenged” peer, according to calculati ons in Hamermesh's recent book, Beauty Pays. Interestingly, the net benefit is slightly less for pretty women, who may make up the difference by trading on their looks to marry men with higher earning potential. And some studies have shown that attractive people are more likely to be hired in a recession (经济衰退)．Hamermesh argues that “there's not much we can do to improve our pulchritude (美丽)”. There are even studies suggesting that for every dollar spent on cosmetic products (化妆品), only 4 cents returns as salary — making lipstick a truly awful investment.________.One 2006 study showed that the less beautiful may actually profit from their lack of looks. People tend to expect less from the unattractive, so when they go beyond those lowexpectations they are rewarded. And the beautiful ones are often primarily held to a higher standard —“then hit with a ‘beauty penalty’ if they fail to deliver.” Hamermesh says.5．What is the best title of this passage?A．How Much does Being Attractive Cost?B．How Much is Being Attractive Worth?C．How can We Make Use of Our Beauty?D．How Happy do Attractive People Feel?6．Which of the following is RIGHT according to the passage?A．Handsome men are happier because they can make profits from their pulchritude.B．Housewives are usually less beautiful and thus less motivated than their working peers.C．Beauty's financial power has long been noticed historically as a most desirable commodity.D．Beautiful women usually make more as they can trade their looks to wealthy and handsome men.7．What is the topic sentence of the last paragraph?A．But inborn beauty isn't always profitable.B．But people always desire to be more beautiful.C．But inborn beauties don't need to improve themselves.D．But being more attractive deserves great efforts.8．Which one of the following words of Hamermesh's can best explain the fact that attractive people are more likely to be hired in a recession?A．“Women feel that beauty is naturally important.”B．“Beauty is rare, and that rareness commands a price.”C．“There's not much we can do to improve our pulchritude.”D．“... then hit with a ‘beauty penalty’ if they fail to deliver.”Tomorrow's world 单元检测(B卷——自主选做)Ⅰ.完形填空(2014·苏州高三检测)One day I was doing a big cleanup when I __1__ a knotted handkerchief with an old dark brown coin inside.

A littleknown fact is that over 60 percent of the older people live in developing countries. According to the World Health Organization, by 2020 there will be 1 billion, with over 700 million living in developing countries.It is a surprising fact that the population ageing isparticularly rapid in developing countries. For example, it took France 115 years for the proportion of older people to double from 7 percent to 14 percent. It is estimated to take China a mere 27 years to achievethis same increase.What are the implications of these increased numbers of older folk? One of the biggest worries for governments is that the longer people live, the more likelihood there is for diseases and for disability. Attention is being paid to the need to keep people as healthy as possible, including during old age, to lessen the financial burden on the state.Another significant problem is the need for the younger generations to understand and value the older people in their society. In some African countries, certainly in Asia, older people are respected and regarded as the ones with special knowledge. Yet traditions are fading away daily, which does not ensure the continued high regard of older people. As society changes, attitudes will change.Much needs to be done to get rid of age discrimination (歧视) in employment. Lifelong learning programs need to be provided to enable older people to be active members in a country's development.Social security policies need to be established to provide adequate income protection for older people. Both public and private schemes are vital in order to build a suitable safety net.To achieve equality in such matters will take considerable time and effort. One thing is sure: there is no time to be lost.1．The proportion of older people ________.A．is bigger in developed countries than in developing countriesB．is oneseventh of the population in developing countriesC．will increase much faster in China than in FranceD．will be sixty percent in developing countries by 20202．According to the passage, which of the following are governments most worried about?A．The diseases and disability of older people.B．The longer life and good health of people.C．The loss of taxes on older people.D．The increasing respect for older people.3．It is stated directly in the passage that older people should ________.A．be treated differently in different culturesB．enjoy a similar lifestyleC．be ignored as society changesD．be valued by the younger generations4．Which of the following measures is NOT mentioned to solve the population ageing problem?A．Getting rid of age discrimination in employment.B．Ensuring adequate income protection for older people.C．Providing free health care for sick older people.D．Supplying lifelong learning programs to older people.5．The author concludes in the last paragraph that ________.A．governments have spent lots of time in solving the ageing problemB．population ageing is a hard problem, but it needs to be solved urgentlyC．people are too busy to solve the population ageing problemD．much time and effort will be lost in solving the ageing problemⅢ.任务型阅读(2014·泰州高三模拟)Job stress hits studentsAs the jobhunting season kicks off, many graduates are suffering from anxiety. Job interview results are becoming the most common conversation topic in dormitories. Worried about not getting satisfactory offers, some students have sleep problems, or lose their appetite. Some might even display symptoms of depression.According to a survey across several universities in Wuhan conducted by Wuhan Yangtze Business University, over 72 percent of student participants were worried about finding a job. Students in the first one or two years were also uneasy about their job prospects, which contributed to spreading anxiety further.Lang Lei, 22, a business major from Renmin University in Beijing, admitted having mood swings when job hunting. The student hoped to get positions with large stateowned enterprises in his hometown of Yantai, Shandong. But when it turned out that things wouldn't be so easy, Lang became concerned. After some struggling moments, he has now changed to more realistic goals.Others feel tortured (受折磨) while waiting for interview results. Mo Tong, a senior software engineering major at South China Normal University, would fall into a nervous state every time after he attended a job interview.“For a day or two I couldn't help but keep thinking about how I performed in front of the interviewers, how well I dealt with their questions, and whether they would consider giving me a chance in the end，” Mo was unable to focus on other things as his anxiety grew.Media reports about rising unemployment rates and a difficult job market have touched students' nerves.“I'm alarmed by articles saying ho w bachelor's degree holders are losing ground，” said Wang Hongjuan, a sophomore English major from Putian University in Fujian Province. “It suggests to me that good jobs are only available to graduate or doctoral students.”As Wang has no plans to further her education, she has to commit herself to all sorts of extracurricular activities to improve her prospects. This throws her into a packed schedule.Wen Fang, a wellknown education psychology expert and consultant in Beijing, advises students not to be misled by depressing surveys and reports about the job market. “Unemployment rates are not linked to an individual's chances of getting a job，” he said. “An individual's chances are actually mainly determined by his or her capability.”According to Wen, a moderate degree of anxiety is normal — it can even be helpful. But if it constantly affects a student's normal life, one should pay more attention. “Focus on adapting yourself to the needs of society, and never ever overestimate your goals，” Wen added.答案Tomorrow's world 单元检测(A卷——全员必做)Ⅰ.1.选C 句意：政府出台了一系列政策和措施以确保人民生活水平的提高。

More than two thousand years ago the ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle defined(定义) jokes as the pleasure that results from a feeling of triumph by sh owing we‟re better than someone else in a certain way. According to Aristotle and many other philosophers，all jokes depend mainly on showing inferiority in another person or group of persons — that is，putting it clearly，on showing that they are worse off t han ourselves. Jokes raise our good opinion of ourselves at someone else‟s expense.Showing how much better than other people we are is only one reason we like jokes. Someone may also use a joke to express their anger or their cruelty or any other kind of action that is not acceptable to us. We feel free to laugh when we hear about someone sliding on a banana skin. The joke lets us express those attitudes which are usually unacceptable to society. This is probably the reason why some of the jokes，especially those involving cruelty，are so popular with certain people.Besides，all jokes depend on our enjoyment of laughing at something that is strange and out of place because it‟s different from things which are happening around it. The same situation can be either sad or pleasant，depending entirely on how strange and out of place it is. If a girl in a bathing suit falls into a swimming pool，we don‟t laugh because nothing unusual has happened. But if a man in a smart suit falls in，the situation is at once unusual in a pleasant way and we laugh. A good joke-teller will always try to build up a situation in which one thing is expected until something unexpected suddenly happens，and so we laugh.56. The underlined word “inferiority” (in Paragraph 1) means ______.A. something that is not as good as something elseB. something that is better than something elseC. someone that is not as good as someone elseD. someone that is better than someone else57. According to Aristotle, all jokes depend mainly on ______.A. showing inferiority in another person or groupB. resulting in a sense of successC. having a good opinion of other peopleD. making people laugh unexpectedly58. What‟s the main idea of Paragraph 2?A. Showing we are better than other people is the only one reason we like jokes.B. When people are angry, they would like to hear jokes.C. People who like jokes are usually cruel.D. To express those attitudes usually unacceptable to society is one of the reasons we likejokes.59. What will a good joke-teller always try to do?A. Make a sad situation into a pleasant one.B. Make different things happen at the same time.C. Make an unexpected thing happen in an expected situation.D. Make people laugh at something unusual and out of place.第二节：阅读下面短文，并根据短文所提供的信息完成表格。

In West Africa as well as Greece，Italy and Middle East，the thumbs-up is pretty much the biggest insult(侮辱)．Rather more charming is a thumbs-up in Germany and in parts of Japan—they just see it as the hand signal for the number one.The “A-OK”This sign is mainly used by divers(潜水员)to mean “OK”(to prevent being confused with the thumbs-up sign，which means “rise”)．Basically the meaning comes o ut as “great”，or “completely fine”．However，in a few countries in Europe，people may think you're telling them that you think they're a “zero”．The “V Sign”The sign comes in two formats，one with the palm faced outwards，and one with the palm inwards. In America they mean the same thing—“victory”．However，if the outside of your hand is facing your target，you're giving somebody a long-established insult in Great Britain and many English-speaking countries such as Australia，Ireland and New Zealand. Winston Churchill(丘吉尔)famously used the “incorrect” version of the “V” sign during the early years of the war，turning the outside inside later. The “V” sign is also considered rude in Italy.The “Corna”The corna hand gesture has most recently been accepted by fans of rock and heavy metal music. Nowadays many Americans use the gesture simply to mean “rock on” or in support of the University of Texas in Austin(known as the “Hook'em Horns”)．Today it is still popular in Spain，Brazil and Slovakia(斯洛伐克)．Historically，however，the symbol possibly dates back to Ancient Greece.21．Which of the following signs doesn't have an insulting meaning?A．The “Thumbs-up”. B．The “A-OK”．C．The “V sign”. D．The “Corna”．22．The pilots in World WarⅡused to make the “Thumbs-Up”sign to show________.A．the plane was very goodB．the plane was ready to take offC．they were going to land on the groundD．they were thankful to the ground crews23．What information can we get from the passage?A．Italians often use the “Thumbs-Up” to praise others.B．The “A-OK” and the “Thumbs-Up” have the same meaning to the divers.C．The “V Sign” was first used by Churchill.D．You can see the “Corna” in a heavy metal music concert.24．If you travel abroad，you'd better not use the“V sign” in ________.A．Greece or Italy B．Germany or JapanC．Ireland or Italy D．Spain or BrazilBEven a child knows that nodding(点头)the head means “Yes”．But some people will probably be puzzled when they first come to India. When they talk to an Indian，he often shakes his head. They might think that the Indian does not like what he said，but on_the_contrary he is expressing agreement.The Indians have a habit of shaking their heads slightly when they talk to somebody.It doesn't mean“No”，but“Yes”．If a person doesn't know this，it might cause misunderstanding.At one time a foreigner in India told his driver who was an Indian to take him to his office.The driver shook his head.The foreigner repeated his request and the driver shook his head again.At last，the foreigner shouted angrily，“Drive me to my office at once！”The driver said in a low voice，“Yes，sir，”smiling and shaking his head again at the same time.25．Generally speaking，nodding the head means ________，and shaking the head means ________.A．Yes；No B．No；YesC．Yes；Yes D．No；No26．According to the habit of India，if someone agrees with you，he will ________.A．nod his headB．shake his headC．neither nod his head nor shake his headD．either nod his head or shake his head27．Why did the foreigner become angry？Because________.A．the Indian driver didn't want to send him to his officeB．he misunderstood the meaning of shaking the head in IndiaC．he asked the driver to send him to his office，but the India driver didn't say any wordsD．the Indian driver asked him for a lot of money28．The underlined phrase “on the contrary” means ________.A．just the oppositeB．clear difference between two thingsC．doing what you want to doD．on the other handCVisitors to Britain may find the best place to sample local culture is in a traditional pub. But these friendly pubs can be dangerous places of potential gaffes(失礼)for the newcomers.A team of researchers have discovered some of the unknown customs of British pubs—starting with the difficulty of getting a drink. Most pubs have no waiters—you have to go to the bar to buy drinks. A group of Italian youths were waiting 45 minutes before they realized they would have to fetch their own. This may sound inconvenient，but there is a hidden purpose.Pub culture is designed to promote sociability(社交)in a society known for its reserve. Standing at the bar for service allows you to chat with others waiting to be served. The bar counter is possibly the only site in the British Isles in which friendly conversation with strangers is considered entirely suitable and really quite normal behavior. “If you haven't been to a pub，you haven't been to Britain.”This tip can be found in a booklet，Passport to the Pub：The Tourists' Guide to Pub Etiquette，a customers' rule of conduct for those wanting to sample “a central part of British life and culture”．The trouble is that if you do not follow the local rules，the experience may fall flat. For example，if you are in a big group，it is best if only one or two people go to buy the drinks. Nothing annoys the regular customers and bar staff more than a group of strangers blocking all access to the bar while they chat and hesitate about what to order.29．The underlined word“sample”in the first paragraph probabl y means“________”．A．taste B．experienceC．test D．record30．The culture of pub in Britain is developed to________.A．encourage people to communicate with each otherB．encourage more people to consume drinksC．attract more tourists to the pubsD．form its own character of culture31．If you don't follow the local rules in a pub，________.A．you won't buy good local drinksB．you may annoy the regular customers and bar staffC．you may fail to feel the local cultureD．you might get into a dangerous place32．What may be the BEST title for the passage?A．Self-service Pubs in BritainB．British Local Pubs：Special Chat PlacesC．Local Pub Culture in BritainD．Manners in British Local PubsDThe human nose has given to the language of the world many interesting expressions. Of course，this is not surprising. Without the nose，we could not breathe or smell. It is the part of the face that gives a person special character. Cyrano de Bergerac said that a large nose showed a great man—courageous，manly，and wise.A famous woman poet wished that she had two noses to smell a rose！Blaise Pascal made an interesting remark about Cleopatra's(埃及艳后)nose. If it had been shorter，he said，it would have changed the whole face of the world!Man's nose has had an important role in his imagination. Man has referred to thenose in many ways to express his emotions. Expressions dealing with the nose refer to human's weakness，anger，pride，jealousy and revenge(报复)．In English there are a number of phrases about the nose. For example，to hold up one's nose expresses a basic human feeling—pride. People can hold up their noses at people，things，and places.The phrase，to be led around by the nose，shows man's weakness. A person who is led around by the nose lets other people control him. On the other hand，a person who follows his nose lets his instinct(本能)guide him.There are a number of others. However，it should be as plain as the nose on your face that the nose is more than an organ for breathing and smelling.33．The passage is about________.A．an organ，with which people can breathe and smellB．the nose，which gives different and useful expressionsC．the nose giving a person special characterD．the interesting remarks about the nose made by some people34．From the passage we know________.A．Cleopatra's nose changed the whole face of the world indeedB．Cleopatra had a strong will to change the whole look of the worldC．Cleopatra's nose was not shortD．Cleopatra hoped that people would change the whole face of the world35．A person who follows his nose________.A．won't take others' adviceB．is easily controlled by othersC．is weak-mindedD．will let his will guide him36．How many emotions can be shown by expressions about the nose in the passage?A．Two. B．Three.C．Four. D．Five.第二卷（共24分）Ⅰ.单词拼写(1*10)1．Someone who has an________(攻击性；挑衅的)attitude may be violent. 2．Being deaf and dumb makes________ (交流)very difficult.3．Housework has ________(传统地)been regarded as women's work.4．The fire ________(蔓延)very rapidly because of the strong wind.5．One must be ________(意识到的)of his shortcomings.6．Several officials were ________(卷入)in the matter.7．She ________(变化)her dress as fashion changes.8．Since he took over the case，he always receives ________(恐吓的)e-mails. 9．It was so quiet that he made some ________(姿势)to express what he wanted. 10．Each of the houses is ________(稍微的)different.Ⅱ. 翻译句子(2*7)11.入乡随俗。

AMy heart beat with that feeling, pumping it like blood to my body as my fingers flew across the piano keys. As the piece neared the end, I stood up to take my final bow. For a second, the room was quiet. Yet, even in that one second, I had enough time to doubt whether I had done everything perfectly. Then, suddenly, the applause came.“Thank you… so much,” I said, turning to Olga, my piano teacher for six years. “You’ve been an amazing student all these years,” she said, “and I hope that whatever you do, you never stop practicing.”I leaned forward, promising I would always keep playing because I loved piano, and hugged her.It turned out to be that promises weren’t as meaningful as I’d hoped for the m to be. Right after quitting, I kept up my strict practicing schedule. Soon, it began slipping away from me. After all, the reason I had stopped taking lessons was that my schedule was busy with homework. Not long after, I stopped practicing altogether. It was pleasing not to have to stress about piano anymore. But something was shifting inside of me. I was empty inside.One day I met Michelle, who had also taken piano lessons from Olga for quite a while.“So, are you still taking lessons from Olga?” S he asked.“Um, no, actually I just quit a while ago,” I replied quickly.“Oh, that’s a shame,” she responded, “You used to be so good —I remember your performance a year ago; it was breathtaking.”Two days after talking to Michelle, I subconsciously(潜意识地)sat down on the bench and started playing. I wasn’t even trying to make the notes sound musically correct…I was simply doing what I should have been this entire time: playing, just to be playing.As the music spread, a familiar feeling rose inside me.21. According to the passage, the quiet room made the writer doubt .A. whether she ended the music a little earlierB. whether she expressed her feeling in musicC. whether she played the piano perfectlyD. whether she was polite to make a bow22. Why did the writer stop practicing the piano?A. She lost interest in playing the piano.B. She was satisfied with her performance.C. She thought Olga to be too strict with her.D. She was busy with her homework.23. After stopping the piano, the writer felt .A. she seemed to have no purpose in lifeB. she got rid of the pressure of lifeC. she had more time to do other activitiesD. she changed herself into another person24. Michael seemed to think .A. the writer could become a famous pianistB. it was a pity for the writer to stop practicingC. the writer should be ashamed of her decisionD. the performance of the writer made her heart brokenBFree Wi-Fi has become very important to us: many stores and shopping malls offer it, restaurants use it to attract customers, and for libraries and coffee shops it is a must-have service.Even when people are traveling, they scan for free Wi-Fi. When selecting or rating a hotel, six in ten travelers believe that unlimited Wi-Fi is the most important factor.“Today, people will never forget to pack their smart phones, tablets and laptopsinto the suitcase,” said the Daily Mail. “We rely on free Wi-Fi heavily whentraveling—especially when it comes to checking social media, checking out travel tips, and accessing websites.”However, despite the opportunities that free Wi-Fi gives us, “our over-reliance on technology has come at a price, with travelers feeling unable to escape social media”, said Lonely Planet, the w orld’s largest travel guide brand.Anita Isalska, Lonely Planet editor and tech addict, was forced to unplug when in an isolated (隔绝的) camp in Greenland recently. “Adjusting to this slower pace, I began to realize that: social media had changed into a habit,” she wrote. “I had believed I was capturing（捕捉）moments, but in reality my busy fingers were preventing me enjoying travel’s deepest pleasures. How fully can you appreciate a huge glacier or wild flowers when your brain is selecting the right photo filter (滤镜) or the perfect six seconds to take photos?”In September, Lonely Planet released 10 predictions for the future of global travel. One of them was that true escapes will be highly valued in future, so remote hotels will start to make their lack of the Internet into an appealing feature. Would you like to have an unplugged holiday?25. According to the passage, people nowadays tend to do the following EXCEPT.A. getting out of a library that has no access to the InternetB. thinking ill of a hotel without Wi-FiC. enjoying travelling better without carrying any Hi-Tech equipmentD. making travel plans via the Internet26. Through the fourth paragraph, the author intends to .A. show a different opinion on the topicB. give more evidence to the view mentionedC. get into another topicD. summarize the previous paragraphs27. What has Anita Isalska realized in Greenland?A. Travelers cannot survive without Hi-Tech.B. Her fingers are not flexible enough to take enough pictures.C. Taking pictures doesn’t affect appreciating nature.D. Her over-reliance on technology has come at a price.28. What does “an unplugged holiday” mean in the last paragraph?A. A camping holiday.B. A holiday without Wi-Fi.C. A holiday in a remote hotel.D. A holiday without taking pictures.CStudy finds being sociable is good for your health, while loneliness is as bad for you as smoking 15 cigarettes a day.A circle of close friends and strong family ties can imp rove a person’s health more than exercise, losing weight or quitting cigarettes and alcohol, psychologists say. Sociable people seem to benefit extra rewards from their relationships by feeling less stressed, taking better care of themselves and having less risky lifestyles than those who are more lonely, they say.A review of studies into the effect of relationships on health found that people had a 50% better survival rate if they belonged to a wider social group, be it friends, neighbors, relatives or a mix of these.The obvious effect of social connections on health has led researchers to call on health officials to take loneliness as seriously as other health risks, such as alcoholism(酗酒) and smoking.“We take relationships for granted as humans,” said Julianne Holt-Lunstad, a psychologist at Brigham Young University in Utah. “ That continuous interaction(相互影响) is beneficial not only psychologically but physically.”Holt-Lunstad’s team reviewed 148 studies that followed the social interactions and health of 308,849 people over an average of 7.5 years. From these they worked out how death rates differed depending on how sociable a person was.Holt-Lunstad said friends and family can improve health in many ways, from help in tough times to finding meaning in life. “When someone is connected to a group and feels responsibility to other people, that sense of purpose and meaning changes into taking better care of themselves and taking fewer ri sks.”29. What’s the main idea of the passage?A. The serious consequence of loneliness.B. Studies of Holt-Lunstad’s team.C. Being sociable makes you live longer.D. Cigarettes and alcohol do harm to health.30. What’s the author’s attitude towards the connection with friends?A. Concerned.B. Worried.C. Negative.D. Approving.31. Which is NOT mentioned in the passage?A. Death rates depend on serious smoking.B. Being social is good for physical health.C. A strong family tie is helpful for your health.D. Loneliness will cause other health risks.DWelcome to ! We have great deals on many of our products.

Two days before Valentine's Day in 2002，Alfred received a 19-year-old heart，marking the first time on record that twin adults each received heart transplants.“I'm 15 minutes older than him，but now I'm younger because of my heart and I'm not going to respect him，”Alfred said with a grin，pointing to his brother while talking to a roomful of reporters，who laughed frequently at their jokes.While the twins knew that genetics might have played a role in their condition，they recognized that their eating habits might have also contributed to their heart problems. “We'd put half a pound of butter on a steak. I overdid it on all the food that tasted good，so I guess I deserved what I got for not dieting properly.”The discussion moved to Anthony's recovery. In the five years since his heart transplant，he had been on an exercise program where he regularly rode a bicycle for five miles，swam each day，and walked a couple of miles. He was still on medication，but not nearly as much as Alfred，who was just in the early stage of his recovery.“Right now I feel pretty young and I'm doing very well，”Anthony said. “I feel like a new person.”Alfred said his goal，of course，was to feel even better than his brother. But，he added，“I love my brother very much. We're very close and I'm sure we'll do just fine.”55．This article is mainly about ______.A．the danger of heart transplant surgeryB．becoming young by getting a new heartC．the effect of genetics on the heartD．the twin brothers who received heart transplants56．What did Alfred and Anthony have in common?A．Lifespan. B．Career goals.C．A sense of humour. D．Love for bicycling.57．What did Alfred and Anthony think also caused their heart problems?A．Exercise. B．Diet. C．Surgery.

Book 4 Unit 3 测试题2015.6.10 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。
AOn a cold winter day Nasruddin was having a chat with some of his friends in a coffee house. Nasruddin said that cold weather did not trouble him, and in fact, he could stay, if necessary, all night without any heat.“If you stand all night in the village square without warming yourself by any other means, we with treat you to a feast,”they said, with looks of total disbelief.“But if you fail, you will treat us all to dinner.”Nasruddin accepted the bet.The very night, Nasruddin stood in the village square till morning despite (尽管) the bitter cold. In the morning, he ran proudly to his friends and told them that they should keep their promise.“But as a matter of fact you lost the bet,”said one of them.“At about midnight, I saw a candle burning in a window about three hundred yards away from where you were standing. That certainly means that you warmed yourself by it.”“How can a candle behind a window warm a person three hundred yards away?”Nasruddin argued. But no matter what he said, the men were not convinced. And it was decided that he had lost the bet. He had to invite all of them to dinner that night at his home.They all arrived on time, laughing and joking, awaiting the feast. But dinner was not ready. Nasruddin told them that it would be ready in a short time, and left the room to prepare the meal. A long time passed, and still no dinner was served. Finally, they went into the kitchen. What they saw, they could not believe. Nasruddin was standing by a huge pot which hung from the ceiling. There was a lighted candle under the pot.“Be patient, my friends,”Nasruddin told them.“Dinner will be ready soon.”“Are you out of your mind, Nasruddin?”they shouted.“How could you with such a tiny flame boil such a large pot?”“If the flame of a candle behind a window three hundred yards away can warm a person, surely thesame flame will boil this pot which is only three inches away,”answered Nasruddin.21．According to Paragraph 1, the attitude of Nasruddin’s friends toward what he said was _____.A．supportive B．worried C．satisfied D．doubtful 22．Nasruddin’s friends insisted that _____.A．he stayed inside a house that nightB．he ran quickly to keep warm that nightC．he warmed himself with a candleD．he spent that night in a wrong place23．What did Nasruddin’s friends find in the kitchen?A．Nasruddin was not in the kitchen at all.B．Nasruddin was boiling his pot with a candle.C．There was only an empty pot on the ground.D．There was no fire to boil the large pot.BFalling through thin ice kills many people every year. Knowing the conditions and thickness of the ice can save your life or the life of someone close.Snow-covered ice makes it difficult to check the thickness. Stay away from cracks or darker areas. It is always a good idea for ice fishers to drill (钻孔) test holes as they go further out onto the lake. This is because ice can vary(变化) in thickness from one part of the lake to the other. Daily changes in temperature can cause ice to change so be sure to ask the locals before you set out.Four inches of ice is okay for a group of people to walk on, six inches for snowmobiles, twelve inches for an automobile and fifteen inches for a truck. During the early winter it is advised to double these figures.When you are not sure of the ice you should also be wearing a life jacket and carry a cellphone. If someone falls through be sure to act quickly by calling 911. Try to reach the victim with a long pole, a rope, or something long. If you can’t do that, throw the victim a life jacket or wood or something else that you can find. Only go to the victim if you can’t do anything else. Do this by forming a human chain where everyone lies down and grabs the person in front by the ankles (踝).After the victim is saved, his wet clothing should be removed and replaced with dry clothing quickly,or he would be freezing. If possible, you should put the victim in a sleeping bag. Immediately take him to the hospital for further treatment.With this knowledge you can have safer ice fishing and save someone’s life.]24．Why are ice fishers advised to drill holes as they go further out onto the lake?A．Because in different areas the thickness of ice is different.]B．Because ice fishers can catch fish through these holes.C．Because ice fishers can look for fish through the holes.D．Because there are many cracks in the ice of the lake.25．How thick should the ice be for a truck to drive on in the early winter?A．Twelve inches. B．Fifteen inches.C．Twenty inches. D．Thirty inches.26．What should people do to go to the victim according to the passage?A．Rush to him and pull him out.B．Jump into the water to save him.C．Throw a life jacket and help him swim out.D．Lie on the ice forming a human chain to save him.27．After saving the victim, one should immediately _____.A．put him into a sleeping bagB．change his wet clothes for dry onesC．give him first aidD．take him to hospitalCEvery weekday, I begin my morning with water aerobics (有氧运动). What a wonderful start to the day! And as our exercise group work out, there is plenty of talk and laughter.Last Friday, we had a long conversation about the importance of laughter to health. During the conversation, I mentioned one of my life-changing books—“Anatomy of an Illness”by Norman Cousins. In this book, Cousins tells how laughter was important in his healing when he was fighting against a deadly disease. Friday’s exercise group was made up of 20-somethings to 70-somethings, and, to my surprise, no one remembered Cousins. How quickly we forget!Norman Cousins (1915 to 1990) was the editor of Saturday Review for 30 years and a well-known political journalist. In 1964, after returning from a visit to Moscow, he became suddenly ill. He was told he had Anklyosing Spondylitis, a deadly illness of unknown cause. When he was told he had only a short time to live, he left the hospital and moved to a hotel with his wife. Then, with the permission of his doctor, he took charge of his healing using a positive attitude, laughter and large amounts of vitamin C. He watched funny movies and shows, such as Marx Brothers movies and“Candid Camera”. And he laughed heartily.The treatment proved to be so effective(有效的) that in very little time Cousins was off all painkillers and sleeping pills. At the end of one month, Cousins returned to the hospital for a checkup. The doctors found no sign of the killer disease. He completely recovered! Then he returned to work and wrote about his experimental treatment in his book“Anatomy of an Illness”. It was with this book that Cousins inspired a“humor therapy”movement.When I first read“Anatomy of an Illness”30 years ago, I was struck by the idea that if laughter could heal illness, why wait to get sick. As a result, we watch at least one old situation comedy every day and purposely laugh as hard as we can. Cousins said,“Hearty laughter is a good way to jog (慢跑) without having to go outdoors.”So why not try it today?28．The first two paragraphs are used to _____.A．introduce a good bookB．bring the topic upC．explain the cause of a diseaseD．show the value of exercise29．What do we know about Norman Cousins?A．He was fully healed just after a month.B．He recovered mainly because of vitamin C.C．He was treated in a local hospital.D．He was a doctor before he fell ill.30．The author’s attitude towards Cousins’ experimental treatment is that of _____.A．unconcern B．satisfaction C．doubt D．belief31．In the passage, the author intends to tell us _____.A．sport is important for healthB．where there is life, there is hopeC．laughter is the best medicineD．good health is more important than wealthDMore than half of all parents believe modern life is so hectic that it is impossible to devote enough time to playing with their children, new research reveals.The study blames(指责) the pressures of modern life for harming childhood. It finds that long working hours, lengthy journeys to work and“unavoidable duties”have left millions disappointed by the lack(缺乏) of opportunities to have fun with their families. More homework is also considered as something that takes a lot of time away from children.“Children—especially younger ones—want to play with their parents, and their parents want it too. But this research shows they are missing out,”said Adrian Voce, director of Play England. The vast majority(大多数) of adults think lack of play leaves children bored and less happy, reduces their concentration and makes them naughtier.“It makes us question whether schools are getting the balance right. Children need time to relax and to form the friendships that are so important. It helps them to go back into the classroom to learn,”said Voce, who argued that unstructured play led to an instinctive(本能的) form of learning that formal lessons could never match.But some parents said they felt that there were not enough places for their children to play safely. Others felt that children were so used to having things bought for them that they did not know how to make up games any more. Parents are so busy that they think they can make up by buying things—and the result is that children are always looking for something that is paid for.When Amanda Allard, 43, puts her son James Bailes, six, to bed he sometimes says：“Mummy, in the morning I want you to play the Playmobil with me.”“And I know that is going to be impossible,”says Amanda.“I wish I could say‘No problem, let’s play with the Playmobil’. It is not like they are asking to go to Legoland—they just want to spend time with their parents.”32．What does the underlined word“hectic”in the first paragraph mean?A．Limited. B．Simple. C．Busy. D．Hard.33．According to Voce, playing will make children _____.A．learn something effectively in classB．unable to pay attention in classC．fail to finish their homework on timeD．get smarter and naughtier34．What will happen to children if parents always buy things for them?A．They will spend money as they please.B．They will be less creative in making up games.C．They will be unhappy about something cheap.D．They won’t understand how hard it is to make money.35．What is the main idea of the passage?A．Many families can’t stand the pressures of life.B．Most parents worry about children’s safety in playing.C．Many children improve their behaviors in playing together.D．Most parents can’t find enough time to play with their children.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。

Such quasi-pets set the psychological stage for what Turkle is really worried about: robot lovers. One woman even says that if a robot acted like it cared, she'd trade in her boyfriend.The book's second half explores the “network” — instant messages, social networks, confessional websites, and the like — and how it reshapes the self. Fifteen-year-olds send and receive close to 6,000 messages a month.“They communicate all day but are not sure if they have connected.They develop friendships on social networking sites and then wonder if they areamong friends.” In texting, a typical question is “Where are you？”，not an open-ended one like “How are you？” Just as robots produce confusion about whether one is alone or with another, Turkle sighs，“We_are_connected_to_each_other,_but_strangely_more_alone.”“What can't be denied (否认) is that technology, with all its faults, makes life a lot easier. It allows us to get in touch with more people in less time; it can make conversation simple — no small talk required. But are any of those feelings equal to the kind we feel when engaged in a real, face-to-face setting? Online, you can ignore others' feelings. In a text message, you can avoid eye contact. A number of studies have found that this generation of teens is becoming unconcerned. That doesn't spell disaster, but it does mean we might want to start thinking about the way we want to live. We've gone through terribly rapid change, and some of these things just need a little sorting out.” Turkle says.This book is not to be missed and worthy of every dollar you spend.26．In her book, Turkle worries that ________.A．the robotic creatures are not alive B．all women would fall in love with robotsC．children are addicted to keeping animal pets D．more people are lost in the world of technology27．What can be implied from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3?A．Internet sets us apart from each other. B．Social network is not the real world.C．Internet brings us closer to each other. D．Messages are used a lot in people's daily life.28. If a child keeps using messages a lot, he or she may ________.A．get engaged in small talks B．care little for others' feelingsC．get stuck in many disasters D．well sort out personal relationship29．The purpose of writing this passage is to ________.A．recommend a good book to readersB．urge people to keep away from technologyC．analyze the dangers of keeping robots as loversD．explore the relationship between human and technologyIt was half an hour before midnight on December 24th last year.
