高考英语一轮复习 Module 6 The Tang Poems War and Peace课时作业
Module 6 The Tang Poems War and Peace(建议用时40分钟)Ⅰ. 阅读理解ALast year my summer holiday was spoiled by my bringing along a modern convenience that was too convenient for my own good: the iPad. Instead of looking at nature, I checked my e-mail. Instead of paddling a small boat, I followed my Twitter feed(推特简讯). Instead of reading great novels, I stuck to reading four newspapers each morning. I was behaving as if I were still in the office. My body was on vacation, but my head wasn’t.So this year I made up my mind to try something different: withdrawal from the Internet. I knew it wouldn’t be easy, since I’m bad at self-control. But I was determined. I started by giving the iPad to my wife.The cellphone signal at our house was worse than in the past, making my attempts at cheating an experience in frustration(沮丧). I was trapped, forced to go through with my plan. Largely breaking away from e-mail, Twitter and my favorite newspaper websites, I had few ways to connect to the world except for the radio and how much radio can one listen to, really? I had to do what I had planned to do all along: read books.This experience has had a happy ending. With determination and the strong support of my wife, I was in my vacation struggle against the Internet, realizing finally that it was I, not the iPad, that was the problem. I knew I had won when we passed a Starbucks and my wife asked if I wanted to stop to use the Wi-Fi. “I don’t need it, 〞I said.However, as we return to post-vacation life, a harder test begins: Can I continue when I’m back at work?There are times when the need to know what’s being said right now is great.I have no intention of giving up my convenience completely. But I hope to resist the temptation to check my e-mail every five minutes, which leads to checking my Twitter feed and a website or two.I think a vacation is supposed to help you rest yourbrain to become more productive. Here I hope this one worked.【文章大意】本文作者通过自己的个人经历告诉大家要抵制住高科技(手机)带来的诱惑, 让大脑得到休息。

入舵市安恙阳光实验学校Module 6 The Tang Poems Old and New(建议用时40分钟)Ⅰ. 阅读理解AHotels that use locally-sourcedmaterials are quite popular, so fordevelopers looking to build hotels on aBolivian salt plain, in Southern America, itwould perhaps make sense that some of the white stuff might find its way into the restaurant’s mills(磨坊). However, the builders behind the Palacio de Sal resort(度假胜地)took this idea and ran with it, for the hotel is built entirely of salt.The hotel has all the modern equipment you would expect, including a steam room, and, unsurprisingly, its own saltwater baths. But there is one rule—it is against the rules to lick(舔)the walls. It took two years to construct the amazing structure.Creator, Don Juan Quesada, dreamt up the idea of the world’s first salt hotel as it was naturally the most practical building material in the area. It was first built in the mid-nineties but had to be pulled down in 2002 before being rebuilt.Pedro Pablo Michel Rocha said, “The hotel is certainly invaluable. All our guests are amazed by it and tend to try to lick the walls or furniture made of salt just to be sure it is made of salt. We can promise that it all is. As the name shows, our hotel is like a palace. It has a unique structure and is a treat for the eyes. ”Even the swimming pool, tables and chairs in the dining room are made of salt. It sleeps up to 48 people across 16 twin rooms and 8 double rooms with prices starting at 85 pounds a night. Mr Rocha added, “Our dining room is indescribable. Guests can enjoy our special meals prepared on the basis of salt, flame and lamb meat from the region, or salted chicken. The bedrooms attract attention because they look like igloos(冰屋)built with salt blocks. ”【文章大意】文章介绍了在南美用盐建造的宾馆。

Good morning, everyone!Summer is the best season for us students.________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Thank you for listening.答案：范文赏读Good_morning,_everyone!Summer_is_the_best_season_for_us_students.It's the time when we can relax and enjoy the family time.Here are some ways to enjoy a meaningful summer after the college entrance examination.First of all, outdoor activities are clearly needed because, as we all know, spending too much time at home in front of our computer or TV is not the best way to spend the vacation.Of course, I'll devote much time to my family.Spending a few hours with our parents or grandparents helps develop a strong family bond.If possible, plan to have a family picnic, or go for a walk to a local park or any other green space.Finally, if we intend to do something more meaningful, we can look for a parttime job and earn some pocket money.The earlier we star t working, the earlier we become independent.Thank_you_for_listening.大题巧练48Module 6The Tang Poems[授课提示：对应学生用书第375页]一、阅读理解A(2017·福建检测)This summer I volunteered at the China Conservation and Research Center for the Giant Panda in Sichuan and had a once in a lifetime chance to get within three feet. Born and raised in America, very rarely had I ever seen a panda. I had expected this moment ever since my mother told me that we would be volunteering at the Center.When my cousin and I arrived at the Center and received our uniforms and gloves,any nervousness I had felt during the car ride quickly faded and changed into excitement. Our first task was to clean up the panda's cage. Although it was a boring job, it was interesting to be in the panda's living area and see how big the animals really are. Pandas actually fear heat, so the Center provides each animal with an ice block to keep it comfortable.When it was time to feed the pandas, the keeper gave us five pieces of food each, which consisted of bamboo, carrots, or bread to feed a oneyearold male. Never having dreamed of being so close to a panda, I was delighted by the action and after listening to it munch(用力嚼) on the food, I hurriedly offered a piece more.Next, we watched a video on China's goal to help giant pandas back into the wild. It explained China's efforts to raise them to increase the population, and detailed measures taken to train the pandas to enter their nature reserve once again.The workers had to spend lots of time teaching the animals how to live in nature and guaranteeing their safety at all times. I am grateful to have been able to volunteer for a day and will treasure the experience for the rest of my life.语篇解读本文是一篇记叙文。

高考英语一轮复习课时作业详答48 Module 6 The Tang Poems 外研版选修8
Ⅰ.1.D本题考查反意疑问句的回答。
由答句His foreign language is far better than expected. (他的外语比预料的要好得多。
)可推知，这本书对他来讲很容易理解。
2．D 本题考查非谓语动词。
不定式和动名词均可用来作主语，但要注意它们的一致性。
另外“introduce”是及物动词，这里要用被动式。
3．D 考查情态动词。
句意为：可惜，考虑到他的能力和经验，他本可能会做得更好。
可知，应用might have done，表示对过去事情可能性的推测“本可能……”；must have done表示对过去事情的肯定推测“一定……”；need have done本需要做而未做；can have done多用于疑问句或否定句。
4．A 本题考查定语从句。
先行词为situations，应用介词“in”，即in the situations。
5．C 本题考查“make sure＋that从句”的用法。
从句用一般现在时表将来。
6．B 本题考查名词辨析。
句意为：孩子的行为举止常常是其家庭环境的反映。
7．A 本题考查动词短语辨析。
句意为：一些学生发现很难理解新老师的方言。
take in领会，理解；take up占据，从事，拿起，继续；take over接收，接管；take on呈现，承担，雇用。
8．D 本题考查强调句。
这是一个强调句，后面省略了that are making so much noise in the garden。
9．C 本题考查固定句型。
在这里用的是一个固定结构： A is to B what C is to D，意思是A对于B就像C对于D一样(这个句式有时也会见到这种表达：A to B is what C to D )。
例如： Water is to fish what air is to human.10．B 句意为：你难道不知道吸烟有害健康么？而且我们老师不准许我们抽烟。

William found it increasingly difficult to read, for his eyesight was beginning to_________．A．disappear B．fallC. failD. damageⅡ.阅读理解Poor listening skills form an obstacle to effective communication.A study by Dr. Paul Panklin at a university found that 9 percent of communication time is devoted to writing, 16 percent to reading, 30 percent to speaking and 45 percent to listening.We spend more time listening than we do in any other form of communication. However, most of us don't pay much attention to it.Research indicates that normal listening results in a 50percent retention immediately after a 10minute presentation, which then declines to only about 25 percent after 48 hours. Extension Specialist Bob Linda says the average person will hear 7. 5 minutes of a onehour presentation and will forget half of that.One reason we listen so poorly is that our minds work much faster than our mouths. The average person thinks 600—700 words per minute but speaks at a rate of about 125. His listeners' minds are occupied with hearing only onefifth of the time he is speaking. The listeners may consider and react to what is being said during the other fourfifths of the time, or become absorbed in coming up with his response, or think other thoughts and miss the rest of what is being said.If we really listen, we may be forced to accept a different perspective of reality. Most of us have a firmly developed view of realitythat we do not want to change. Carl Rogers, the psychiatrist, points out that if you are really willing to listen to another, to enter his private world and see reality as he sees it, you run the risk of being changed. “This risk of being changed is one of the most frighte ning prospects most of us can face.”16．From the passage, we can learn that listening .A. always forms a barrier to our communicationB．occupies the largest part in communicationC．will take the place of other ways of communicationD．is a difficult skill to master17．The underlined word “retention” in the 3rd paragraph means “________”.A．attention B．presentationC．memory D．occupation18．In normal listening, the reason why an average person can only keep half of what the speaker says in mind is that ________.A．half of that will be forgottenB．our mouths work much more slowly than our mindsC．most of us pay little attention to itD．he is afraid of being changed19．According to Carl Rogers, ________.A．we should let listeners enter our private worldB．the opinions of the speakers may affect us if we listen to them willinglyC．we shouldn't make us changed while listeningD．it is wrong that we don't want to change while listening20．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A．The listeners can only occupy themselves with 20% of the time when listening.B．We spend more time speaking than we do in any other form of communication.C．The listeners miss the rest of what is being said only because they think other thoughts.D．If we listen, we may be forced to accept a different perspective of reality.Ⅲ.书面表达假设你是李华，明年即将进入大学学习，但是不知怎样适应(adapt to)大学的生活。

at all.“We weren’t seeing weight loss necessarily，and that wa s confusing to us，” said Rogers.So why would diet soda cause weight gain？No one knows for sure yet，but it could be that people think they can eat more if they drink diet sodas，and so overcompensate for the missing calories.A related study found some sweeteners (甜味剂) raised blood sugar levels in some mice.“Da ta from this and other
