They said plants had been the key object of study be cause their reaction to climate change could have an effect on food chains and ecosystem services.The study, published on the Nature website, uses the findings from plant life cycle studies and experiments across four c ontinents and 1,634 species. It found that some experiments had underestimated（低估）the speed of flowering by 8.5 times and leafing by 4 times.“Across all species, the experiments under-predicted the speed of the advance — for both leafing and flo wering — that results from temperature increases,” the study said.The design of future experiments may need to be improved to better predict how plants will react to climate change, it sai d.Plants are necessary for life on the Earth. They are the bas e of the food chain, using photosynthesis（光合作用）to produce sugar from carbon dioxide and water. They let out oxygen which is needed by nearly every organism on the plan et.Scientists believe the world’s average temperature has rise n by about 0.8℃ since 1900, and nearly 0.2℃ every ten year s since 1979.So far, efforts to cut emissions（排放）of planet-warming greenhouse gases are not seen as enough to preve nt the Earth heating up beyond 2℃ this century — a point sci entists say will bring the danger of a changeable climate in which weather extremes are common, leading to drought, floods, crop failures and rising sea levels.57. What is the key information the author wants to give in Pa ragraph 1?A. Plants’ reaction to weather could have damaging effects on ecosystem.B. The increasing speed of flowering is beyond scientists’ exp ectation.C. Climate change leads to the change of food production patt erns.D. Food chains have been seriously damaged because of we ather.58.

Scientists pay special attention to the study of plants beca use _______.A. they can prove the climate change clearlyB. they are very important in the food chainsC. they play a leading role in reducing global warmingD. they are growing and flowering much faster than before60.

高中英语Unit3AtasteofEnglishhumour单元加餐练(含解析)新人教版必修4

单元加餐练Ⅰ.阅读理解Mr Bean is an internationally recognized comedy character on TV and in films. He always gets into awkward and absurd (荒谬的) situations, which greatly amuses audience regardless of their nationality orculture. The humour is always made clear through a series of simple and funny acts that rely simply on body language.One of my favourite shows is Mr Bean in a restaurant. After being seated at his table, Mr Bean takes out a card, writes a few words on it, seals (密封) it in an envelope and places it on the table. After a moment, he looks back at the envelope but this time he looks surprised, as if he did not know it was there. He opens it to find a birthday card and happily puts it on the table for everyone to see.When he looks at the menu, a surprised look quickly appears on his face. He takes all the money out of his wallet, counts it and puts it in a saucer (茶托). He then looks from the menu to the money with concern until he finds one thing that makes him smile. Then he orders a dish called “steak tartare”. When the dish arrives, he is shocked to discover that “steak tartare” is actually raw hamburger. He makes an attempt to eat it, but it is clear from the look on his face that he finds the taste truly disgusting. He can't hide his feelings, except when a waiter asks if everything is all right. When this happens, he smiles and nods, showing that everything is fine. When the waiters are not looking, however, he hides the raw meat anywhere he can reach — the sugar bowl, the tiny flower vase, and under a plate. He becomes so desperate (孤注一掷的) in the end that he even hides some inside the purse of a woman sitting near him and throws some down the trousers of the restaurant's violinist!I like to watch Mr Bean on TV, but I wouldn't like to meet someone like him in real life and I certainly wouldn't like to have dinner with him!语篇解读：本文主要描述了憨豆先生是一位著名的幽默大师，并列举了他在餐馆的搞笑表演。

高二英语下Unit 3 A taste of English humour

Unit 3 A taste of English humour I. 单元教学目标II. 目标语言Ⅲ. 教材分析与教材重组1．教材分析本单元的中心话题是“感受英语幽默”，其中涉及到了幽默的种类及其代表人物，并就中外幽默进行了粗略的比较，以此让学生感受英语幽默的内涵。

1.1 WARMING UP中提出了三个问题：How many kinds of humour do you know？Do you know these kinds of humour？Do you have other kinds of humour in China？这三个问题直指本单元中心话题，为下一步的阅读理解作了准备。

1.2 PRE-READING在WARMING UP 的基础上提出了另外三个问题：What do you like to laugh at？What does humour mean？Is humour always kind？这三个问题进一步让学生了解幽默的含义，即把缺陷与完美、荒唐与合理、愚笨与机敏等两极对立的属性不动声色地结合起来，在对立统一中见其深刻的意义。

1.3 READING以美国著名喜剧大师Charlie Chaplin的表演为例，为学生展示了幽默的内涵。

第一段以常见的踩香蕉皮滑倒为例，指出了幽默的内涵之一：“Perhaps it makes us feel more content with our life because we feel there is someone else worse off than ourselves”.从第二段开始介绍卓别林以其独特的表现方式成为著名的幽默大师，文中列举了两部他的喜剧片，一部是The Little Trump，另一部是The Gold Rush。

前者以其穿着及行为而受到了人们的喜爱；后者通过吃皮鞋这一片段，让人领略了他的无与伦比的想象力与幽默感。

Unit 3 A taste of English humour第Ⅰ卷第一部分听力(略)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。

AThe influence of America is increasing in my country.Spanish people drink Coca Cola，wear blue jeans，watch Hollywood movies，listen to American music，and eat fast food，and they do these things every day.I think that American movies are a good way to spread American culture because people are often influenced by what they see in the movies.Most of the programs and documentaries (纪录片) we watch on TV are from America，and most of the movies we go to see are made in Hollywood.In the last few years，the government has tried to protect the Spanish movies.Now，in our cinemas，at least twenty percent of the movies which are shown must be from Spain or from other countries in Europe.American culture is a part of Spanish life now.It’s certain that many things from America are as much a part of people’s lives as Spanish things.For example，Coca Cola is as familiar to everybody as any typical Spani sh product.I’ve known about Coca Cola for my whole life.However，it’s different with Western fast food.For example，I don’t think McDonald’s is as successful in Spain as it is in other countries.In my opinion，one of the reasons may be the lifestyle of the Spanish people.The Spanish people normally eat at home.On the other hand，maybe McDonald’s hamburgers will eventually replace the famous Spanish tapas.It’s true that in every city in Spain you can find a McDonald’s，and it is more popular among the Spanish children than among the adults.In any case，it’s obvious that American culture is becoming more and morea part of our lives every day.21.From the first paragraph we can know that .A.the influence of America on Spain can be found everywhereB.most S panish people don’t like to listen to their own musicC.fast food spreads from Spain to the United StatesD.some Spanish actors go to America to improve their acting skills答案 A解析推理判断题。

根据文章第一段可知，西班牙人喝可乐，穿牛仔裤，看好莱坞电影，听美国音乐，吃快餐，并且他们每天都做这些事情，由此推断出美国对西班牙的影响到处可见。

故选A。

22.What plays an important part in the spreading of American culture in Spain?A.American novels.B.Hollywood movies.C.McDonald’s.D.American music.答案 B解析细节理解题。

根据文章第二段首句“I think that American movies are a good way to spread American culture because people are often influenced by what they see in the movies.”可知，看美国电影是传播美国文化的好方法，因为人们经常受到他们所看的电影的影响。

故选B。

23.Why did the government set some rules for the films shown in Spain?A.To protect foreign culture in Spain.B.To earn more money from Spanish films.C.To limit the number of foreign movies.D.To unite the European Community.答案 C解析推理判断题。

根据文章第二段中的“In the last few years，the government has tried to protect the Spanish movies.”可知，政府为了保护西班牙电影而限制外国电影的数量，因此制定了一些在西班牙放映的电影的规定。

故选C。

24.What do you think Spanish tapas might be?A.The name of a drink.B.The name of a restaurant.C.A clothing brand.D.A certain kind of food.答案 D解析推理判断题。

根据最后一段中的“On the other hand，maybe McDonald’s hamburgers will eventually replace the famous Spanish tapas.”可知，在西班牙，麦当劳汉堡将最终取代著名的西班牙小吃，由此推断出tapas可能是一种小吃。

故选D。

BWalking along a lake in the cold winter，Birbal and the king made a bet(打赌)that a man would do anything for money.The king said，“I don’t think a man would spend an entire night in the cold water of this lake for money.”Birbal replied，“I’m sure I can find such a person.”The king asked Birbal to find such a person and said that he would reward the person with a thousand gold coins.Birbal searched far and wide and finally found a poor man.When he entered the lake，the king had guards around him to make sure that he really did as promised.The poor man made it.He told the king that there had been a street lamp nearby and that he had kept his attention on the lamp and managed to avoid the cold.The king then said that there would be no reward as he relied on the warmth of the street lamp.The poor man went to Birbal for help.The next day，Birbal did not go to court(上朝).The king went to Birbal’s house and see what he was up to.He found Birbal sitting on the floor near some burning branches and a bowl filled with rice hanging five feet above the fire.The king and his followers couldn’t help but laugh.The king then said to Birbal，“How can the rice be cooked if it is so far away from the fire？”Birbal answered，“The same way the p oor man received heat from a street lamp that was more than two thousand meters away.”Finally，the king gave the poor man his reward.25.The poor man used the lamp to .A.keep him warm in the cold waterB.light his way around the lakeC.stop him from being afraid in the darknessD.keep his attention away from the cold答案 D解析细节理解题。
