Unit 4 Making the newsⅠ.阅读理解ANowadays there are many new cars on the road.Some new models are flashy and others are fuel efficient，and embedded technology(嵌入式系统技术) is at the heart of all of them.The new Ford Escape has a radar enabled adaptive cruise control(巡航车速控制装置) to avoid collisions，with sensors on the front and side of the car.Ford's Mark Schirmer says the electronic system can be accessed through the dashboard or a smartphone.“I am from Michigan.If it is a cold morning，I can have it start up right before I am scheduled to leave to go to the airport or go to work.You can find your car or if one of your family members borrows the car，it will show you exactly where it is，”said Schirmer.Third party products now in development，like this emergency warning system，help drivers who fail to hear an approaching siren.A near miss with an ambulance inspired the product from the Chicago start up HAAS，co founded by Cory Hohs.“It scared me enough that I started looking for a product that would alert me when they are coming，”said Hohs.A sobriety detector(清醒度检测器) from a Canadian company called Sober Steering is sold to companies with fleets of vehicles，such as buses.Chief Operating Officer Catherine Carroll says a sensor on the steering wheel can detect alcohol vapors emitted from the skin.“If I am drinking and I have levels above a preset limit，it immobilizes the vehicle，so you cannot move the vehicle that you are driving，”said Carroll.One company founder says the connected technology is playing an important role in people's daily life.He says，“You can buy a washing machine，you can buy a microwave that has Wi Fi and connects to a router.Also the connected technology of the cars has become as important as performance and styling.”[语篇解读] 本文为一篇说明文。

（2018·四川成都高中毕业班检测）Fans of the movie Finding Nemo may remember the terrifying fish that scares Dory and Marlin at the bottom of a trench.But in reality this “monster”， a black seadevil， is only about 9 cm long，which would make it about a third of the size of Dory and potentially smaller than Marlin or Nemo.While this inaccuracy may seem harmless， it could cause problems for future conservation efforts， as people are more likely to support conservation of adorable rather than scarylooking animals.The black seadevil is just one of the mysterious “monsters”. From 2000 to 2010，scientists described about 1，200 new species in the Census of Marine Life. While this figure may seem astonishing， a further 5，000 individual dead creatures are in specimen（标本） jars， waiting to be described.Specimens must be methodically collected， identified， and then the identity of new deepwater species must be confirmed.If we call unusual deepsea animals monsters， then we may harm their conservation as people are unlikely to be connected with them or care about saving them.On the other hand， their rarity clearly makes them popular on social media sites. For other species， this has already resulted in increases in illegal trading for unusual p ets. Deepsea species may potentially become illegally obtained specimens or food. Humans may end up eating these animals of the deep sea to extinction before their species are even known to science.Every habitat on earth is interconnected， and whatever we as humans do has an influence on marine ecosystems. In reality， about 80% of our oxygen is produced by microorganisms（微生物） in the oceans. This makes our oceans both the lungs and lifeblood of our planet and we must all try harder to save them.【解题导语】本文主要从电影里对深海物种的不准确认识，谈到了保护深海物种的重要性。

阅读理解（时文报道类+说理议论类）完形填空（记叙文）Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2017·甘肃天水甘谷二中一模)Men are spending more and more time in the kitchen encouraged by celebrity(名人) chefs like Gordon Ramsay and Jamie Oliver，according to a report from Oxford University.The effect of the celebrity role models，who have given cooking a more manly picture，has combined with a more general drive towards sexual equality and men now spend more than twice the amount of time preparing meals than they did in 1961.According to the research by Prof.Jonatahn Gershuny，who runs the Centre for Time Research at Oxford，men now spend more than half an hour a day cooking，up from just 12 minutes a day in 1961.Prof.Gershuny said，“The man in the kitchen is part of a much wider social trend.There has been 40 years of sexual equality，but there is another 40 years probably to come.”Women，who a generation ago spent nearly two hours a day cooking，now spend just one hour and seven minutes—a great fall，but they still spend far more time in the kitchen than men.Some experts have nam ed these men in aprons as “Gastrosexuals (men using cooking skills to impress friends)”，who have been inspired to pick up a kitchen knife bythe success of Ramsay，Oliver as well as other male celebrity chefs such as Hugh FearnleyWhittingstall，Marco Pierre White and Keith Floyd.“I was married in 1974.When my father came to visit me a few weeks later，I was wearing an apron when I opened the door.He laughed，” said Prof.Gershuny.“That would never happen now.”Twothirds of adults say that they come together t o share at least three times a week，even if it is not necessarily around a kitchen or dining room table.Prof.Gershuny pointed out that the family meal was now rarely eaten by all of its members around a table—with many “family meals” in fact taken on the s ofa in the sitting room，and shared by family members.“The family meal has changed a lot，and few of us eat—as I did when I was a child—at least two meals a day together as a family.But it has survived in a different format.”1.What is one reason behind the trend that men spend more time cooking than before?A.The development of sexual equality campaign.B.The influence of popular female chefs.C.The change of female’s view on cooking.D.The improvement of cooks’ status.2.What does the author think about the time men and women spend on cooking?A.Men spend more time cooking than women nowadays.B.It will take 40 years before men spend more time at the stove than women.C.Women spend much less time on cooking than before.D.There is a sharp decline in the time men spend on cooking compared with 1961.3.How did Prof.Gershuny see the family meal according to the passage?A.It has become a thing of the past.B.It is very different from what it used to be.C.It shouldn’t be advocated in modern times.D.It is beneficial to the stability of the family.4.Which is the best title for the passage?A.The Changes of Family MealsB.Equality Between Men and WomenC.Cooking—a Thing of the Past for WomenD.Cooking into a New Trend for MenB(2018·河北故城高级中学期中)At heart，parents always wish the best for their children，and they work hard for that.Nowadays，we see parents deciding the schools for their little ones before the babies are even born.Once kids start going to school，some parents want to have a timetotime update(最新的情况) of their kids’ activities.They want to come to their classroom every day，keep an eye on whom they talk to，know the friends they keep，start telling them how to do their jobs，and keep talking to them about everything under the sun.Besides，they send their kids to extra hobby classes，as they want their children to do best in every field.When it comes to the education，super mum and dad have all the plans made for their children，and I am sure that they have come up with the best.So，try to fight for the dreams that your parents have seen for you.However，in some cases，it may happen that the kids have some different dreams.Parents sometimes don’t even consider the choices of their kids and may force them to do what they wanted to do in life.It’s good to plan the future for the children，but leave at least some decisions to them.So what should the children do？First，hear out all the plans that your parents have made for you.If you have some different ideas，then sit down and talk to your family about it.Be patient and respect their decisions，but put your plan forth，and make them understand what you want to do and why.Many times，you don’t know the difficulties that you may have to face while pursuing your dreams.Ask your parents for suggestions，which will make them feel good and involved.That way，they may support you if you are going on the right path.5.The parents described in Paragraph 1 .A.have a good understanding of their childrenB.worry a lot about their childrenC.take part in activities with their childrenD.expect too much from their children6.About educational plans，the writer advises .A.children to do as they are toldB.children not to listen to their parentsC.children to communicate with their parentsD.children not to follow their parents’ suggestion s7.The underlined word “pursuing” in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to “”.A.going afterB.planning foring toD.preparing for8.What’s the writer’s attitude towards these super parents’ behaviors?A.He is against them.B.He is doubtful of them.C.He doesn’t care about them.D.He supports them.Ⅱ.完形填空(2018·山东滨州期中)During the month I spent studying in England last summer，one day stood out.I was only 16 and I was loose on the streets of London.The freedom was wonderful， 9 for

必修5 Unit 4 Making the news李仕才Ⅰ.阅读理解AAt 23, my career got going. I was midway through a master's degree at the London School of Economics and Political Science and had been hired as a parttime reporter for a finance website. I got a great onemonth review and my boss asked if I was interested in staying at the company after graduation.However, balancing graduate studies with work was challenging. To deal with it, I checked my real self at my office door. I came in to work, greeted my colleagues and listened more than I contributed in each morning meeting. The small team I worked with often seemed busy, so rather than giving ideas that might get turned down, I stayed back.After four months, my boss called me into his office. The meeting was going well until he told me that despite the great work I had produced, the team had held a meeting and decided, “We don't think it's the right fit.”I must have looked confused.“You're ambitious, intelligent and will be very successful，” my boss said. “But you haven't made enough effort to join the team. You lost the enthusiasm you showed in your interview. That won't work long term, and if I could give you one piece of advice, it would be to get your guard down.”I couldn't believe that performing well at my job wasn't enough to keep it. But I knew my boss was right. They knew that when they hired me, I had no experience in finance reporting, yet they took a chance on me. In meetings I usually contributed last, after I had heard everyone else's suggestions.I did it to show that I was a listener, but also to hide my fears. They liked the person who walked into the interview, and they didn't respect me when I hid that person from them.“Don't leave before you leave.” That advice is essential for women at all stages of our careers. Because we work so hard for success, we don't like to think that we hurt ourselves sometimes. But each of us must change when necessary. In trying to earn a fulltime job, I “leaned back” in order not to show too much of myself or my lack of expertise(专门知识). I learned that the hard way wasn't the way to achieve our goals.【文章大意】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。

2019年高考英语一轮复习精选提分专练第五周星期四阅读理解（时文报道类+说理议论类）完形填空（记叙文）Ⅰ.阅读理解(xx·广东佛山顺德区教学质量检测)Growing up can sometimes seem like a roller coaster.There are ups and downs and unexpected turns.Abuse or neglect by an adult can make the ride even rougher.But being bullied(欺凌) by another child can leave especially lasting scars.That’s the finding of a new study.Bullied kids face a high risk of mental health problems as teens and as young adults.Indeed bullied kids might be worse off than those who had suffered physical abuse or neglect，the study found.Dieter Wolke works at the University of Warwick in England.Until recently，most studies of child victims focused not on bullying but on maltreatment，this psychologist says.Maltreatment includes physical or emotional abuse，neglect or other behaviors that can harm a child.Wolke’s team wanted to better understand how bullying’s longterm effects pare to those due to maltreatment.They focused on 4,026 children in the United Kingdom and 1,420 more in the United rmation about bullying and maltreatment was collected for American children to age 13.They collected the same information for British youth up to age 16.The researchers also gathered data on each individual’s mental health as a young adult.Among the Americans,36 percent of bullied kids had mental problems later.Those problems included anxiety，which is a state of excessive worry.They also included depression.That is a feeling of hopelessness that can last a long time.Among kids who had been maltreated by adults,17 percent later suffered mental health problems.That was less than half the rate seen in people who had been bullied as school kids.In the U.K.group，the difference was less spectacular.Roughly 25 percent of the bullied kids reported mental health problems later，pared with about 17 percent who had been maltreated.But however you look at it，the finding are disturbing，Wolke says.They show that bullied children have similar or worse mental health problems later in life.And that’s why he says schools，health services and other agencies must work together to end bullying.1.According to the passage，which of the statements is TRUE?A.Kids treated cruelly recover soon after they grow up.B.All bullied kids have mental health problems.C.Most kids with maltreatment experience tend to bee violent adults.D.Most studies didn’t pay much attention to bullying until recently.2.How does the author support the theme of the text?A.By providing research results.B.By stating arguments.C.By explaining statistical data.D.By giving examples.3.The underlined word “spectacular” in Paragraph 6 could be best replaced by “”.A.slightB.dramaticC.specificD.similar4.According to the text，what does Wolke suggest doing?A.Taking good care of children.B.Joining hands to stop bullying.C.Keeping psychologically healthy.Dparing different types of abuse.B(xx·甘肃兰州一中期中)Have you ever imagined traveling to a foreign country without having to worry about the headache of municating in a different language?In a recent Wall Street Journal article，technology policy expert Alec Ross argued that，within a decade or so，we’ll be able to municate with one another via small earpieces with builtin microphones.That’s because technological progress is extremely rapid.It’s only a matter of time.Indeed，some parents firmly hold the idea that this technology is approaching and they’re wondering if their kids should even learn a second language.It’s true that an increase in the quantity and accuracy of the data loaded into puters will make them cle verer at translating “No es bueno dormir mucho” as “It’s not good to sleep too much.” Replacing a word with its equivalent(同义词) in the target language is actually the “easy part” of a translator’s job.But even this seems to be a discouraging task for puters.It’s so difficult for puters because translation doesn’t—or shouldn’t—involve simply translating words，sentences or paragraphs.Rather，it’s about translating meaning.And in order to infer meaning from a specific expression，humans have to interpret a mass of information at the same time.Think about all the related clues that go into understanding an expression：volume，gesture，situation，and even your culture.All are likely to convey as much meaning as the words you use.Therefore，we should be very skeptical of a machine that is unable to interpret the world around us.If people from different cultures can offend each other without realizing it，how can we expect a machine to do better？Unless engineers actually find a way to breathe a soul into a puter，undoubtedly when it es to conveying and interpreting meaning using a natural language，a machine will never fully take our place.5.What view does the author hold about translation?A.Proper translation can be tough for humans.B.Slight differences matter little in translation.C.Some machines will interpret our world properly.D.Cultures deserve more attention than words used.6.What is the best title for the text?A.An Expert’s Precise PredictionB.The plexity of TranslationC.Who Will Be a Better TranslatorD.Will Language Barrier Actually Disappear?7.What is the author’s attitude to the modern technology?A.Unclear.B.Objective.C.Optimistic.D.Negative.8.In which column can you read the article in a newspaper?nguage Learning.Bments on hot issues.C.Science Development.D.Translation tips.Ⅱ.完形填空(xx·江西南昌二中联考)Be a Traveler，not a TouristLast summer，I had just enough money saved to buy a golden ticket—a 3month train pass that would take me to the furthest reaches of Europe.Excited for

2019版高考英语阅读理解一轮提升选练（4）李仕才AIn a bid to convince drivers in Aichi Prefecture to keep their hands on the wheel and their eyes on the road，a new Japanese smartphone app offers free coffee coupons(优惠券)to drivers who don’t check their phones for at least 100 km.For the last 13 years，Aichi Prefecture has recorded the highest rate of death in traffic accidents in st year，there were 443,691 accidents that resulted in injuries or deaths，and 50,101 arrests involving the use of smartphones while driving.Wit h handhelds becoming such a big part of people’s lives，there appears to be an increase in violations of this nature，and authorities have yet to come up with an effective plan to deal with the problem.Interestingly，a Japanese company seems to think that a creative new app could in some way help drivers to keep themselves from checking their phones at the wheel and reduce the number of traffic accidents.Toyota Motor Corporation，Komeda Coffee and KDDI Corporation of Communication have teamed up to create Driving Barista，an app that uses the phone’s sensor to sense the tilt(倾斜)of the device，and the GPS to determine the distance driven.This allows it to calculate the number of kilometers a driver has traveled with the smartphone facing down.When Driving Barista determines that the smartphone has not been checked for at least 1 00 kilometers，it will reward the driver with a coupon for a cup of blended or iced coffee at a Komeda Coffee Shop.The reward is earned after every 100 kilometers driven without checking the phone.If you try to change the number before it reaches 100 km，the app will reset back at 0 km.Toyota claims that this is the first smartphone app that attempts to deal with traffic safety issues.“In line with contributing to the final goal of achieving zero death and zero traffic accidents，Toyota has taken automobile safety measures as one of its top priority management concerns，”said Shuichi Murakami，managing officer at Toyota.“By carrying out a new traffic safety regulations together with Komeda Coffee and KDDI，we hope to further reduce traffic accidents.”文章大意：文章以爱知县和日本的交通状况为线索，谈到政府和一些汽车企业为降低因使用手机带来的交通事故而发明的一种新设备。

Nowadays more and more people are talking about genetically modified foods ( GM foods). GM foods develop from genetically modified organisms (有机体), which have had specific changes introduced into their DNA by genetic engineering techniques. These techniques are much more precise where an organism is exposed to chemicals to create a nonspecific but stable change. For many people, the hightech production raises all kinds of environmental, ethical, health and safety problems. Particularly in countries with long farming traditions, the idea seems against nature.In fact, GM foods are already very much a part of our lives. They were first put on the market in 1996. A third of the corn and more than half the cotton grown in the U. S. last year was the product of biotechnology, according to the Department of Agriculture. More than 65 million acres of genetically modified crops will be planted in the US this year. The genetic genie is out of the bottle.However, like any new product entering the food chain, GM foods must be subjected to careful testing. In wealthy countries, the debate about biotech is not so fierce by the fact that they have a large number of foods to choose from, and a supply that goes beyond the needs. In developing countries desperate to feed fastgrowing and underfed populations, the matter is simpler and much more urgent: do the benefits of biotech outweigh the risks?The statistics on population growth and hunger are disturbing. Last year the world's population reached 6 billion. The UN states that nearly800 million people around the world are unhealthy. About 400 million women of childbearing age don' t have enough iron, which means their babies are exposed to various birth defeats.As many as 100 million children suffer from vitamin A deficiency, a leading cause of blindness.How can biotech help? Genetic engineering is widely used to produce plants and animals with better nutritional values. Biotechnologists have developed genetically modified rice and they are working on other kinds of nutritionally improved crops. Biotech can also improve farming productivity in places where food shortages are caused by crop damage attributable to drought, poor soil and crop viruses.1.The passage mainly talks about________.A. the world's food problemB. the development in biotechC. the genetically modified foodsD. the way to solve food shortages2.According to the passage, GM foods________.A. will replace naturally grown foodsB. are far better than naturally grown foodsC. may help to solve the problem of poor nutritionD. can cause serious trouble in developing countries3.The underlined sentence “The genetic genie is out of the bottle.”in Paragraph 2 probablymeans that________.A.GM foods are available everywhereB. the technology in producing GM foods is advancedC. genetic technology may have uncontrollable powersD. genetic technology has come out of laboratories into markets4.What's the writer's attitude towards GM foods?A. Enthusiastic.B. Cautious.C. Disapproving.D. Unbelievable.【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了转基因食品及其对人类生活的影响。

Making the news李仕才一、阅读理解Taylore is a kid who passes by to ride sometimes and help us with chores. Barely 15, she’s never short of advice, and one of her favorite pastimes is teasing me about being afraid to go too fast on a horse.Last summer four of us rode down the trail behind our woods: my wife Karen, Taylore, Taylore’s friend Kendall and me. I was riding my 13-year-old, Tawny.We were two miles from home when, for some unexplainable reason, I pushed Tawny into a gallop（飞驰）. The other horses were anxious to catch up, and just like that, the race was on.Taylore brushed past my left leg and, seconds later, Kendall went by on my right.I realized Tawny was covering ground faster than I’d ever seen her. She strained every muscle in her body to catch up with the girls. It was like a truck winding over a mountain road without brakes (闸). Part of me felt perfectly in control, while another part screamed that I wasn’t.In half a mile I knew we’d be crossing the highway, so I prayed that the girls would be fine. I gave up calculating how long it might take before my horse would be tried enough to want to slow down.I was just about out of answers when I saw the girls slowing in front of me. Their horses were relaxed and comfortable, not even breathing hard. Taylore’s face glowe d. She gave me a high five. ＂Wow, you did well, ＂she said. ＂I knew you’d go fast when you were ready.＂No one in the group had even broken a sweat, except me. I was still nervous from the crazy pace. My heart pounded too, but not from exercise. Karen claims I was showing off for the girls that day, and maybe she’s right. But I think I had something to prove. Because despite my wrinkles (皱纹), glasses and gray hair, I was feeling young at heart. And, like a horse on a warm summer day, I’m always ready to kick up my heels.1. How did the race between the girls and the author begin?A. His horse’s gallop made the other horses want to catch up.B. He wanted to show off his riding skills for the girls.C. They wanted to know whose horse could run fastest.D. They teased him about being afraid to go too fast on a horse.2. During the race, ___________.A. the author’s horse outran the girl’s horses the whole timeB. the author was confident that Tawny was in controlC. the girls were so anxious to win that they sweated a lotD. the author’s good performance took Taylore by surprise3. When the race ended, the author’s heart pounded because ________.A. he was feeling thrilled and youngB. it was really tough exercise for himC. he was worried that the girls might be in dangerD. he felt quite embarrassed that he had lost the race4. The phrase ＂ kick up my heels＂ at the end can be replaced by _________.A. devote myselfB. enjoy myselfC. accept my challengeD. take part in running competition【文章大意】文章描述作者和两个女孩骑马比赛，这让作者感到兴奋，也感到虽然自己上了年纪，但是有一颗年轻的心。
