高考英语一轮复习学案:必修3Unit 7 The Sea主题: 人与自我子话题: 自然环境、自然遗产保护对应教材: 必修3 Unit 7 The Sea; 选修8 Unit 22 Environmental ProtectionⅠ. 细品味经典文章(2020·全国Ⅱ卷阅读理解C) When you were trying to figure out what to buy for the environmentalist on your holiday list, fur pr obably didn’t cross your mind. But some ecologists and fashion (时装)enthusiasts are trying to bring back the market for fur made from nutria(海狸鼠).Unusual fashion shows in New Orleans and Brooklyn have showcased nutria fur made into clothes in differ ent styles. “It sounds crazy to talk about guilt-free fur—unless you understand that the nutria are destroying vast wetlands every year, ” says Cree McCree, project director of Righteous Fur.Scientists in Louisiana were so concerned that they decided to pay hunters $5 a tail. Some of the fur ends up in the fashion shows like the one in Brooklyn last month.Nutria were brought there from Argentina by fur farmers and let go into the wild. “The ecosystem down there can’t handle this non-native species(物种). It’s destroying the environment. It’s them or us, ” says Michael Massimi, an expert in this field.The fur trade kept nutria in check for decades, but when the market for nutria collapsed in the late 1980s, the cat-sized animals multiplied like crazy.Biologist Edmond Mouton runs the nutria control program for Louisiana. He says it’s not easy to convince people that nutria fur is green, but he has no doubt about it. Hunters bring in more than 300, 000 nutria tails a year, so part of Mouton’s job these days is trying to promote fur.Then there’s Righteous Fur and its unusual fashions. Model Paige Morgan says, “To give people a guilt-free option that they can wear without someone throwing paint on them—I think that’s going to be a massive thing, at least here in New York. ” Designer Jennifer Anderson admits it took her a while to come around to the opinion that using nutria fur for her creations is morally acceptable. She’s trying to come up with a label to attach to nutria fashions to show it is eco-friendly.Ⅱ. 按要求完成任务1. 写出文章中与科学和环境相关的单词和短语。

课时作业(七) [模块3 Unit 7 The Sea](限时:35分钟)Ⅰ.阅读理解Amelia Earhart's(1897—1937) childhood was not the typical girl's.She liked nothing better than to explore the banks of the Missouri River,where she climbed trees and hunted rats with her rifle (步枪).She also built her own roller coaster(过山车).The exciting life of the American aviation(航空)pioneer is dramatized in the movie Amelia,which is due to come out on October 23.After Earhart paid a pilot $1 to take her up for a short fly in his plane,aviation became her love and career.As she later explained,“Never do things others can do and will do,if there are things others cannot do or will not do.”Earhart found herself a flying teacher and started to learn to fly.She took all sorts of jobs to pay for the lessons and to buy a secondhand plane on her 24th birthday. In 1932,Earhart flew solo(单飞) across the Atlantic.She became the first woman to make the solo crossing.She also made a flying suit for women and went on to design other clothes for women who led active lives.“Now and then women should do for themselves what men have already done—occasionally what men have not done—thereby establishing themselves as persons,and perhaps encouraging other women towards greater independence of thought and action,”she said.When she was nearly 40,Earhart was ready for a final challenge—to be the first woman to fly around the world.However,in midflight,she and her navigator (导航员)disappeared in bad weather.Earhart will be forever remembered as a brave pioneer for both aviation and women. 1.According to the passage,which of the following statements is TRUE?A.A movie about Earhart's exciting life has come out.B.Earhart never did things others could and would do.C.Earhart's love for aviation came after she flew a plane for a short time. D.In Earhart's opinion,women should think and act more independently.2.The underlined word in Paragraph 2 means“________”.A.presented B.adoptedC.published D.created3.From the passage we can know that ________.A.Earhart showed most interest in adventure trips to the Missouri River during her childhoodB.Earhart's ambition was to fly across the AtlanticC.Earhart challenged herself constantlyD.Besides flying,Earhart also designed planes and clothes4.You can probably find this article in________.A.a bookletB.a newspaperC.a guidebookD.an advertisementⅡ.阅读填空根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Many people feel that the United States has the worst taxes in the world.Taxes are the money that people pay to support their government. There are generally three levels of government in the United States: federal, state, and city; therefore, there are three types of taxes.Salaried people who earn more than four to five thousand per year must pay a certain part of their salaries to the federal government. The percentage varies for different people. It depends on the salaries. The federal government has a two level income tax: that is, 15 or 28 percent. $17,850 is the cutoff. The tax rate is 15 percent below $17,850 and 28 percent above.The second tax is for the state government: New York, California, or any of the other fortyeight states. Some states have an income tax similar to tha t of the federal government. Of course, the percentage for the state tax is lower. Other states have a sales tax, which is a percentage charged to any item which people buy in the state. Some states use income tax and sales tax to raise their revenues (收入).The third tax is for the city. This tax comes in two forms: property tax (people who own a house have to pay taxes on it ) and excise (执照) tax, which is collected on vehicles in a city. The cities use this money for education, police, public works, etc.Since Americans pay such high taxes, they often feel that they are working oneday each week just to pay their taxes. People always complain about taxes. They often say that the government misuses their tax dollars. They all believe that taxes are too high in this country.31. How much money does an American earning $40,000 per year pay to the federal government as income tax according to the passage?A.$11,200. B.$6,000.C.$17,850. D.$5,000.32.What happens to buyers when a sales tax is collected?A.They have to pay more than what the item costs.B.They can pay less than what the item costs.C.They have to pay exactly what the item costs.D.They will all give up buying the item.33. What tax does an American have to pay to the city if he owns a car?A.Property tax. B.Excise tax.C.Income tax.
