高考提能练(三十二) Module 2 Fantasy LiteratureⅠ.阅读理解A[2019·辽宁五校高三上学期模拟]“We all know that exercise is good for us, but can you get the benefits without actually doing the exercise?” asks Michael Mosley.Having a hot bath or a sauna is a good way to soothe your arms and legs after exercise, but what happens if you do it instead of exercise? Dr. Steve Faulkner of Loughborough University asked me to take part in an experiment comparing the relative benefits of having a long, hot bath versus an hour of hard cycling.For this study I join a group of volunteers who have all been fitted with monitors which continuously record blood sugar levels. Keeping your blood sugar level within the normal range i s an important measure of your “metabolic” fitness.The first part of the experiment is very relaxing, consisting of having a long, hot bath. While I sit in the bath, which they keep at 40 ℃, Steve closely monitors my core temperature. Once it has risen and stayed there, I am allowed out.A couple of hours after my bath I have a light meal. Since we want to see how having a hot bath compares with exercise we repeat the experiment.So what's the result?“One of the first things that we were looking at,” Steve says, “is the energy expenditure (消耗) while you're in the hot bath and what we found was an 80% increase in energy expenditure just as a result of sitting in the bath for the course of an hour.”This is nothing like as many calories as cycling for an hour (which comes out at an average of 630 calories), but we do burn 140 calories, the equivalent of a brisk 30minute walk.体裁:说明文题材:锻炼身体主题:热水浴消耗热量【解题导语】实验发现,一个小时的热水浴虽然没有骑一个小时自行车所消耗的热量多,但其所消耗的热量相当于半个小时的快步走所消耗的热量。

高考提能练(三十四) Module 4 MusicⅠ.阅读理解A[2019·郑州市质量预测]US student Vanessa Tahay stands out from the other teenagers in her school. Her skin is dark and her accent is thick. If you ask her, she will tell you these are the things she is proudest of. Tahay is a poet, and at 18 she was considered among the best in Los Angeles.When she is on the stage, audiences often go silent. They also laugh, shout and cry. But this doesn't come easily for someone who comes from a village that sits at the base of a huge mountain range in Central America. When she first appeared at school, she was teased by others for being short and different. She never spoke, so they called her “mouse”.“How do I defend myself?” Tahay thought. “I don't know how.”“Keep going,” her mother would tell her. “At some point, you'll learn.”She spent hours after school and on weekends watching the same DVD: English Without Barriers.Tahay's elder brother, Elm er, persuaded her to go to the afterschool poetry club. In the last six years, her English teacher Laurie Kurnick has turned Cleveland Charter High School's poetry program into one of the most respected in the city. Her team draws from the likes of D.H. Laurence, Pat Mora and Kendrick Lamar to create poems about their own lives. The poems focus on many things —some funny, some painful.The first time Tahay read the group's poems, she was wild with joy. “I wish I could write like that,” she thought. “I want to say something.”She wrote her first poem about her first year in America.She called it Invisible. The day her turn came to recite poems in front of the team, she broke down crying. She cried for 15 minutes. “I had so much held in,” Tahay said. “I cou ldn't even finish it.”But she kept at it despite her lessthanperfect grammar, spelling and diction (措辞). Still, she wouldn't tell her friends about her poetry because she worried they would make fun of her.But with time, her poems changed her. “They g ave me pride,” Tahay said. “They told me that I'm worth something.”“She had this innocence,” Kurnick said. “This willingness to be genuine shows you things you don't ever see.”体裁:记叙文题材:成长主题:战胜别人的嘲笑【解题导语】本文主要讲述了美国学生Vanessa Tahay的故事:她通过自己的努力战胜了别人的嘲笑,并找到了自己的人生价值。

A.Disapproving.B.Supportive.
C.Sympathetic.D.Skeptical.
答案与解析:B 考查观点态度。根据第四段最后两句“And what a great decision that was.I mean,just look at her”及最后一段对Larkins夫妇的情况的描述可知,作者对她的这种生活方式是支持的。
Mrs. Larkins says the secret to her beauty lies in her special diet, consisting of organic vegetables, fruits, seeds and nuts grown in her own garden; she callsitthe “fountain of youth”. The woman doesn't touch anything that has been cooked.
译文:Larkins夫人说她的美丽的秘诀在于她的由那些被种植在她自己的园子里的有机蔬菜、水果、种子和坚果组成的特殊饮食,她把这种特殊饮食称为“年轻的源泉”。
1.What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A.The organic food.B.Her beauty.
And another strange thing she does is to collect rainwater, to keep her garden blossoming, but also to drink. But the resident of Miami Dade County, Florida, didn't always have such a healthy lifestyle. In fact, she consumed meat regularly, as her husband used to own a meat factory way back in the 1960s. It was then that she decided to change her eating habits forever. And what a great decision that was. I mean, just look at her!

8.If the finding is true, it's best to ________.
A.do your work at the energy peak
B.manage to control your temper
C.work at the bottom of energy cycle
D.manage to keep you clean all day
You can't change your energy cycle, but you can learn to make your life fititbetter. Habit can help, Dr. Kleitman believes. Maybe you're sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway. If so, staying up later than you want to may counteract your cycle in some way. If our energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day, rise before your usual hour. This won't change your cycle, but you'll get up steam and work better at your low point.

高考提能练(三十三) Module 3 Interpersonal Relationships— FriendshipⅠ.阅读理解A[2019·南昌市重点中学段考]In high school I was very shy, content to hang around with my small group of friends and concentrate on my courses. I was quickly regarded as a “brain”. I did so well th at by the end of the senior year I had perfect grades and enough credits to give up an entire quarter of coursework.But in early June of the senior year, the principal called me into his office. He asked me to give a speech at graduation. I gaped (目瞪口呆地凝视) at him, my heart thumping. This was the reward for my hard work? I mumbled something and fled the office, blaming myself for staying away from physics, a subject sure to have ruined my perfect record.I finally agreed to a compromise. I would share the honor with five other students. And my friend Judy would then give her own, fulllength speech.Graduation day soon arrived. I'd been practicing my speech for days, and I had it memorized. The first half hour of the ceremony passed in a blur, and then my moment came. My name was announced. I managed to reach the podium (讲台) without falling down. I faced my classmates. My voice trembled a little, but mostly it was clear and strong. But within seconds, I was done and headed back to my seat. I accomplished something I'd never dreamed of — I spoke in front of hundreds of people.Although I didn't realize it at the time, the successful completion of that speech gave me the confidence to participate in class at college, to give verbal reports, and to eventually break free from my shyness. I never would have chosen to give a speech at graduation ever. But I'm glad I did. I no longer hesitate when I'm faced with the prospect of doing something I dread. I know it may very well turn out to be one of my shining moments.体裁:记叙文题材:学校生活主题:“我”的第一次演讲【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。

高考提能练(三十六)Module 6 War and PeaceⅠ.阅读理解[2019·惠州市第一次调研]I was selfish as a teenager. I usually spent my time thinking about myself and taking care of my own needs. I let my older brother do most of the work around the house until he left for college. I let my mom and dad worry about our bills and problems while I read books, played, and lost myself in my own imagination. This didn't change even when I went to college either. I studied hard but only to make my own life better. Even when I started to explore my faith, it was only to increase my own happiness.I married after graduation and decided to start a family. Of course, I had no idea what hard knocks reality had in store for my selfish soul. Soon I found myself unemployed, deeply in debt, and with a new baby on the way. I found out that life has little sympathy for spoiled people. In fact, all of the struggles I was going through were beating the selfishness slowly out of me.Still, I didn't give up on happiness. I knew that there must be a way to find it.I finally realized, however, that it had to include more than just my own needs, wants, and desires. The answer began to make itself clear one night shortly after my baby boy was born. I got a bottle and held him in my arms. As I was feeding him I looked down and saw his big, innocent, trusting eyes. I smiled and talked to him. Then he smiled and I could feel my heart growing, expanding with love. I felt such peace and joy. At that moment I had a hint of the truth: it is by growing our hearts with love that we find our happiness.Carolyn Arends wrote: “The more people you let into your heart, the bigger your heart gets. The more love you get, the more love you have to give. It just keeps growing.” So, keep loving, keep living and keep caring. Keep growing your heart today, tomorrow, and always.体裁:夹叙夹议文题材:人生感悟主题:爱他人即幸福【语篇解读】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文,主要讲述作者由一个自私的人成长为一个心中对他人有爱的人,也明白了“爱他人即幸福”的道理的经历。

外研版高中英语选修六高考一轮复习选修6参考答案
课时作业(三十一)Ⅰ.1. B考查“情态动词+have done”的结构。
第二句话用了虚拟语气,表示与事实相反的虚拟假设。
根据前后逻辑,本句的意思应该是:你本没有必要自己拿着这些包裹的。
要是当时你跟商店说一声,他们就会把东西送来的。
needn't have done本不需要做某事但事实做了。
2.A考查动词短语辨析。
句意:许多父母涌入城市找工作而把孩子留在乡下。
leave behind“把……留下”,符合语意。
leave off中断,停止(做某事);leave aside搁置一边;leave out省略;遗漏。
3.A考查动词短语辨析。
be well aware of对……非常清楚;be well worth非常值得;be content with对……满意;be satisfied with对……满意。
句意:当尤塞恩·博尔特准备在伦敦奥运会卫冕的时候,他很清楚他将为观众带来什么。
4.D考查介词搭配。
apologize to sb for sth/doing sth意为“因某事向某人道歉”。
5.C考查非谓语动词。
lead to sb doing sth意为“导致某人做某事”。
因为punish与the boy之间是动宾关系,因此用被动形式。
6.D考查动词短语辨析。
句意:无论你怎样读这个句子,它还是讲不通——句中最重要的词被漏掉了。
leave out意为“遗漏,删掉”;put out意为“扑灭”;pick out意为“挑出”;take out意为“拿出来,(动手术)切除,摘除”。
7.C考查动词的时态。
本句中的unless引导条件状语从句,主句是祈使句,谈论将来的事情,因此从句要用一般现在时表将来,且lights 与turn off 之间是被动关系。
8.C考查动词短语辨析。
根据语境可知,他是一个爱炫耀的人。
show off炫耀;show up 到场,出席;make up编造;make out看清,分清。

While there are certainly happy memories tied up in the wedding ring you and your spouse (配偶) purchased together years ago or your teddy bear from childhood, new research finds that we typically feel calmer and experience a greater sense of well-being when we focus on a place that reminds us of happier times rather than a thing, even if it holds great value.The report, called Places That Make Us, was conducted by National Trust's and Surrey University's researchers. Experts performed functional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) (磁共振成像) scans on 20 volunteers and conducted an online survey of 2,000 people to better understand this deep draw toward special places.“Working with leading researchers and academics, and using cutting-edge MRI brain technology, we examined how places affect people, how they become special, and why we feel a pull towards them,”explained Nino Strachey, head of research for the National Trust.The 20 volunteers were shown images of landscapes, houses, and other locations, as well as personally meaningful objects. Measuring their brain activity, the researchers found that it was the places, as opposed to the objects, that caused the brain to get the most excited.V olunteers were also interviewed at great length two times, once at home and the other time at their special place. The research made discoveries that had never known before —the favorite places awoke feelings of belonging, physical and emotional safety, and an intense internal pull to the place.Dr. Andy Myers weighed_in_on the research, saying, “For the first time we have been able to prove the physical and emotional benefits of places, far beyond any research that has been done before.”体裁:说明文题材:幸福主题:回忆美好时光提升幸福感【解题导语】文章介绍了回忆某个与美好时光相关的地方时,我们会感到平静,幸福感也更加强烈。

(建议用时:35分钟)Ⅰ阅读理解(2019·太原第一学期高三年级阶段测评)Nothing succeeds like success, as every parent of a straightA student knows, but trying to stress academic excellence by telling your child “You’re so smart!” may be counterproductive.Why? According to a 2017 study, children who think their intelligence is fixed are less likely to pay attention to and bounce back(重整旗鼓) from mistakes than children who think intelligence can grow and change.In the study, researchers looked at 123 children.The team assessed the children to determine whether they had a “growth mindset” (believing that you can work harder to get smarter), or a“fixed mindset”(believing that your intelligence is unable to change).They then asked the children to complete a fast-paced computer accuracy task while their brain activity was recorded.During the recording, researchers noted that brain activity stopped within a halfsecond after making a mistake, as children became aware of their mistake and paid closer attention to what went wrong.The larger the brain response was, the more the child focused on the mistake.Based on the data, they concluded that children with a “growth mindset”were much more likely to have a larger brain response after making a mistake.While children with a “fix ed mindset” were able to“bounce back”,only if they gave their full attention to the mistake.For parents, the lessons are clear: Don’t pay your children compliments that suggest that intelligence is fixed. If your children hands you an A+score, don’t say, “You’re so smart!”Instead, say,“Wow, that studying really paid off!” or “You clearly mastered this material—way to go!”Note the effort, not the intelligence.Besides, many parents shy away from addressing their children’s mistakes, telling them “I t’s OK. You’ll get it the next time” without offering them the chances to figure out what goes wrong. Instead, it’s better to reassure your children that mistakes happen, and work to figure out where andhow they make the mistake.【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲了父母要留意孩子的努力而非智力,在孩子犯错后,父母要引导孩子正确地对待错误。

B[2019·重庆调研]Many people have long dreamed of being able to fly around as simply as riding a bicycle. Yet the safety and strength of a flying bike was always a big problem. Over the past 10 years, developments in technology have moved the dream of personal flying vehicles closer to reality. Now, two groups of inventors say such vehicles may be available soon.The British company Malloy Aeronautics has developed a prototype (原型) of its flying bicycle. Grant Stapleton, marketing sales director of Malloy Aeronautics, says the Hoverbike is able to get in and out of small spaces very quickly. “It can be moved across continents very quickly because it can be folded and packed,” he adds.Mr. Stapleton says safety was the company's main concern. He says the designers solved the safety issue by using overlapping rotors (交叠式旋翼) to power the vehicle.The company is testing a fullsize prototype of the Hoverbike, which will most likely be used first by the police and emergency rescue teams.In New Zealand, Martin Aircraft Company is also testing a fullsize prototype of its personal flying device, called the Jetpack. It can fly for more than 30 minutes, up to 1,000 meters high and reach a speed of 74 kilometers per hour.Peter Coker is the CEO of Martin Aircraft Company. He said the Jetpack “is built around safety from the start”. In his words, “Reliability is the most important element of it. We have safety built into the actual structure itself, very similar to a Formula One racing car.”The Jetpack uses a gasolinepower ed engine that produces two powerful jet streams. Mr. Coker says it also has a parachute (阵落伞) that would be used, if there should be an emergency. “It starts to work at very low altitude and actually saves both the aircraft and the pilot,” he adds. Mr. C oker says the Jetpack will be ready forsale soon.体裁:说明文题材:科技发明主题:个人飞行工具将应用于现实【语篇解读】本文介绍了飞行工具的最新发展,个人飞行工具将应用于现实。
