Unit 5 First Aid李仕才一、阅读理解。
Recently I and other Red Cross volunteers met a group of victims from Hurricane Katrina. We were there, as mental health professionals, to offer ＂psychological first aid＂and I was struck by the simple healing power of presence. As we walked in the gate to the shelter, we were greeted with a burst of gratitude (感激) from the first person we met. I felt appreciated, but also guilty, because I hadn’t really done anything yet.I first realized the power of presence many years ago when a friend’s mother passed away unexpectedly. I had received a call saying she had just passed away. I wanted to rush down there immediately, but didn’t want to intrude (打搅) on this very personal period of sadness. I was torn about what to do. Another friend with me then said, ＂Just go. Just be there.＂I did, and I will never regret it.Since then, I have not hesitated to be in the presence of others. Once I sat at the bedside of a young man suffering from the pain of his AIDS — related dying. He was not awake, and obviously unaware of others’ presence. However, the atmosphere was by no means solemn. His family, playing guitars and singing, allowed him to be present with them as though he were still fully alive.In my life, I am repeatedly struck by the healing power of presence. In it, none of us are truly alone. It is not only something we give to others but also changes me for the better.1.Why were the hurricane victims grateful to the author?A. He built shelters for them.B. He gave immediate first aid to them.C. He came to stay with them.D. He brought mental health professionals.2.What did the author do when his friend’s mother passed away?A. He hesitated over whether to go.B. He went to his friends’ at once.C. He knew what to do instantly.D. He decided not to disturb.3.What does the underlined word ＂solemn＂ in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. Heavy but warm.B. A little sad but cosy.C. Relaxing and delightful.D. Very serious and unhappy.4.What has the author learned from his experience?A. A friend in need is a friend indeed.B. Being present can make a big difference.C. The family harmony is the happiest thing in life.D. Being a volunteer can make one’s life more significant【文章大意】本文是一篇记叙文。

AStrange Museums You Never KnowSome museums hold stranger collections than others. Here's our list of the extremely unusual ones.The Museum of Bad ArtThey say beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and to the curators at the Museum of Bad Art, none of these pieces are beautiful. They're either bad pieces made by otherwise talented artists, or bad pieces made by untalented artists. The collection includes portraits, landscapes, and still life pieces.International Banana MuseumYou can find practically every object shaped like a banana at this museum in Mecca, California. Some examples: staplers, statues, record players, and salt and pepper shakers. Even better, you can also eat practically any banana-flavored treat here, like banana ice cream, banana soda, and, of course, banana splits.Busy Beaver Button MuseumLearn about the history of buttons. Appreciate a collection of political, humorous, and just plain entertaining buttons. You can even make your own button at this hidden Chicago museum. And you can get a reward if you complete some 18th century puzzles.National Museum of Roller SkatingThis museum in Lincoln. Nebraska. has the largest collection of historical roller skates, in the world. Some skates are almost 200 years old! There are also skating costumes, thousands of photos of skaters and programs from national and international roller skating competitions.International UFO Museum and Research CenterDo aliens(外星人)exist? If so, what is their preferred mode of transportation? The IUFOMRC in Roswell, New Mexico, is dedicated to answering these questions and researching UFO activity. It includes exhibits on crop circles, Area 51 and other alien-related events. It even keeps an official record of UFO sightings across the country.1. What can we do in the Busy Beaver Button Museum?A. Learn about the museum's history.B. Admire buttons of all kinds.C. Find the hidden buttons in the museum.D. Reward those who complete puzzles.2. If you are crazy about outer space civilization, which museum could be your choice?A. The Museum of Bad Art.B. International Banana Museum.C. National Museum of Roller Skating.D. International UFO Museum and Research Center.3. What do these museums have in common?A. Rich history.B. Practical impact.C. Unusual exhibition.D. International influence.BLast week, my younger brother visited me for five days. To ensure I could spend as much time with him as possible, I worked extra hard during the weekend before he arrived.It amazed me how much I could accomplish when I had a strong motivation to be efficient.During the week, I put in a couple of hours in the mornings to handle pressing issues and then spent the afternoons and evenings going out with him. Once again, I was surprised to realize justhow much free time was available to me if I consciously(有意识地)chose to be more effective while working.This made me think of Parkinson's Law: Work expands to fill the time available for its completion.I realized then that I'd given myself more time than necessary for work, and as a result, I ended up spending a lot of time delaying needlessly and entertaining myself online.How might things change for me, I wondered, if I chose to commit to more social and recreational(休闲娱乐)activities, made them priorities(优先事项)and was motivated to finish work quicker?I realize not everyone has flexible work schedules, but I believe we could all create more time for ourselves if we were motivated to cut out the choices that don't match our strongest desires and intentions. Maybe it's being absent-minded in front of the TV or searching the web.I believe what English musician John Lennon said is true: Time that you enjoyed wasting was not wasted. I don't think there's anything wrong with using technology if we've consciously chosen to do it.However, we owe it to ourselves to get out in the world and explore different possibilities-to be playful, curious, engaged and just to be.Perhaps it would be easier to do that if we asked ourselves: How can I be more effective? Can I minimize what I am currently doing? How can I start using the time I've created in a way that will excite and inspire me?4. How did the author feel when she finished her work in advance?A. Guilty.B. Amazed.C. Stressed.D. Exhausted.5. made the author think of Parkinson's Law?A. Her working habitB. Her workload during that timeC. The change in her work efficiencyD. The time spent with her younger brother6. What does the author advise us to do to make more time for ourselves?A. Commit to more social activities.B. Create a tight work schedule for ourselves.C. Don't waste time on technology for any reason.D. Focus on the most important tasks, and ignore anything unimportant.7. What is the author's main purpose in writing this article?A. To explain what Parkinson's Law is.B. To introduce how to balance work and life.C. To reflect on better time management.D. To show the importance of accompanying family members.CSeveral Chinese companies are temporarily hiring-or "sharing"-employees from businesses that haven' t resumed operations or are only partially operating due to concerns over the novel coronavirus epidemic(传染病). The so-called shared employees, known as gongxiangyuangong in Chinese, are being hired by supermarkets, e-commerce platforms' retail stores, and other companies or factories to ease the lack of workforce.According to domestic media outlet National Business Daily, more than 3, 000 new employees had joined Hema by Feb 19, while over 4, 000 people had signed up for the "talent-sharing" plan under Suning by Feb 21.The American supermarket chain Walmart has also joined in the trend, hiring more than 3, 000 temporary workers from other sectors to work at its branches in cities like Beijing, Fuzhou, and Shenzhen.Bike-sharing company Hello bike has opened 8, 000 positions nationwide for bicycle maintenance, according to Xinhua News Agency. In Hefei, capital of the eastern Anhui province, Hello bike is seeking 300 temporary workers, while 40 employees from a local hotel have started working at an industrial park on one-month contracts.Yao Junchang, a lawyer with Beijing Weiheng Law Firm, told Workers' Daily that companies hiring temporary workers should guarantee detailed provisions(规定, 条款)in their agreements, including the time of employment, salary and policy for work-related injury compensation."At the same time, the companies lending the employees should sign a complete secondmentarrangement, pay employees in full, and pay social security on time," he said. "Employees should pay more attention to safety measures and require a tripartite(三方)agreement or labor agreement to be signed during the temporary employment period and keep records as evidence."8. During the novel coronavirus epidemic, what's the reason for sharing employees?A. These employees are free.B. These employees are more capable.C. These employees are badly in need.D. These employees hope to earn more money.9. How does paragraph 2 develop?A. By making comparison.B. By providing examples.C. By following the time order.D. By doing analysis.10. What does the underlined word probably mean in paragraph 4?A. Investment.B. Payment.C. Reward.D. Interest.11. What is the writer's attitude towards the shared employees?A. Objective.B. Subjective.C. Indifferent.D. Opposed.DEach night, small groups of a species called free-tailed bats emerge from their habitat in the Panamanian rain forests to hunt for the prey(猎物)using echolocation."When bats are hunting, especially when they're in open areas, they produce two really different call types. They have their 'search-phase' calls when they're just scanning the environment. And then they have 'feeding buzzes' when they actually detect food, like insects." said Jenna Kohles, a graduate student at the Max Planck Institute of Animal Behavior in Germany.Both types of calls are typically too high-pitched for us to hear. Other bats can hear those feeding buzzes and use them as a hint for finding food. But it's always been assumed that the other call, search-phase call, doesn't include that kind of social information. Kohles and her team wondered if search-phase call might also be social and help bats stick together in the dark."This is why we then tested first whether these echolocation calls they produce when they're scanning the environment contain information about a bat's identity, like in the form of an individual signature. And then, more importantly, we wanted to test whether bats can actually usethis information to tell between different individuals, just using these search-phase echolocation calls."The researchers captured wild bats and exposed them to a particular call over and over again until they became bored and stopped reacting. Then the researchers played the same type of call but recorded from a different bat. If the bats reacted, it means that they noticed that the identity of the caller had changed.And that's exactly what happened, which suggests that some kind of individual signature is encoded(编码)within search-phase call. The results are in the journal Behavioral Ecology.Many other animals that hunt in groups use vocalizations(发声)to keep connected. But bats already invest most of their vocal resources in echolocation for hunting. So it appears that these bats have figured out how to accomplish both tasks-hunting and cooperation-using a single type of vocalization.12. How does the free-tailed bats hunt for their prey?A. Finding the sound of their prey.B. Locating the echoes they produce.C. Producing the sound like a group of insects.D. Using search-phase calls.13. What do we know about "search-phrase call" in the passage?A. The call sounds low.B. The call acts as a signal of finding food.C. The call is commonly thought to be social.D. The call may contain some kind of bats' identity.14. What does the writer intend to tell us in the fourth paragraph?A. The purpose of the experiment.B. The content of the experiment.C. The background of the experiment.D. The steps of the experiment.15. What is the best title of the passage?A. Do you know bats' calls?B. Why do bats produce two types of calls?C. Let's explore the usage of vocalization.D. Bat says hi as it hunts.第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)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。

高考英语一轮复习 考点51 书面表达之读后续写(试题特征与句式策略)考点归纳-人教版高三全册英语试题
考点33读后续写〔试题特征与句式策略〕一、试题特征读后续写原文所提供短文词数在350左右，划线词语涉与到名词(词组)、动词(词组)、介词(词组)和形容词等，其中，以名词(词组)为主，在续写中至少要使用5个关键词语，需要注意：在使用关键词语时根据时态和语态的需要，可以改变动词的形式，可以改变名词的单复数，但不要改变关键词语在原文中的含义和词性；多以记叙文故事类文章或者夹叙夹议类文章为主，故事情节有曲折、有起伏，但故事线索的逻辑性比拟强。
1.创造性：即发挥想象力，该题型具有一定的开放性，考生需用自己的语言对故事情节进展内容创造；2.逻辑性：即根据已提供的关键信息，按照可能的合理的方向续写，使文章逻辑结构完整；3.丰富性：即语言能力的充分表现，词汇句法的准确与复杂程度，细节描写的生动性等都将让故事更加立体饱满。
读后续写操作简便，通常的做法是从外语读物中截留一篇结尾缺失的材料，让学习者读后写全内容。
此法用于外语学习，大致有以下优点(王初明，2012)：〔1〕释放想象力，培养创新思维能力。
在理解阅读材料的根底上创造性地构思续写内容，必须发挥想象力，而想象力是创新的源头，续写有助于培养创新思维能力。
〔2〕理解与产出严密结合。
如前所述，这是提高外语学习效率的重要条件。
假设要完成好续写任务，必须充分理解阅读材料的内容，同时接着续写，记忆新鲜，模仿容易，协同效应佳。
〔3〕与阅读材料与其作者互动。
续写时，学习者需要回读原文，以保持所写的内容和语言与原文连贯，因而迫使产出和理解协同，如同与比自己语言水平高的本族语者互动，产生拉平效应。
〔4〕创造性地模仿和使用语言。
续写必须生成新的内容，在表达新内容遇到语言障碍时，可直接使用阅读材料中出现的词句，为写作纤困。
这是一种语言模仿，但具有创造使用的特征：模仿阅读材料中的词语句型，表达自己创造的内容。
学习者马上运用新学到的词语或进展熟词新用，不仅学得好记得牢，而且容易产生成就感，增强外语学习兴趣和动力。
高考英语阅读理解基础精品练习题(51)及答案
2014高考英语阅读理解基础精品练习题（51）及答案阅读理解A study of English learning problems was carried out among a total of 106 foreign students. It shows that most students considered understanding spoken English to be their biggest problem on arrival. This was followed by speaking. Writing increased as a problem as stude nts discovered difficulties in writing papers that they were now expected to hand in. Reading remained as a significant(显著的) problem.The information gained helped us in determining where special attention should be paid in our course. Although many students have chosen to join the course with a reasonable motivation(动机), we considered it important to note what seemed to encourage interest. Nearly all the students have experienced some kind of grammar-based English teaching in their own country. To use the same method would be self-defeating because it might reduce motivation, especially if it has failed in the past. Therefore a different method may help because it is different.Variety of activity was also seen as a way of maintaining(保持) or increasing motivation. Several years ago we had one timetable that operated throughout, but we soon found that both the students and the teachers lost interest by about halfway through the ten weeks. This led us to a major re-think, so finally we brought it into line with the expressed language needs of the students.65. What is the text mainly about?A. Foreign students have more problems.B. There are many ways to improve English.C. Teaching should meet students’needs.D. English learning problems should be studied again.66. Writing became a bigger problem when foreign students________.A. had to write their papersB. became better at speakingC. became less interested in readingD. had fewer problems with listening67. We may infer from the last two paragraphs that ________.A. different teaching methods should be usedB. grammar-based teaching seems to be encouragingC. English courses are necessary for foreign studentsD. teaching content should bechanged halfway.68．The word “it”underlined in the last paragraph refers to “______________”.A. re-thinkB. activityC. motivationD. timetable3、(8分)65.C 66.A 67.A 68.D65．解析：这是一道主旨题。
高考英语阅读理解一轮练5含解析
2019年高考英语阅读理解一轮练（5）李仕才ANowadays, especially in China, everything seems to favor social intercourse, such as gatherings of friends, KTV, group travel, dining tighter, playing cards and Mahjong, plus the Chinese-style “street-crossing group.” Back home, discussions can still be boisterously carried on within the “circle of friends” of WeChat.However, these scenes cannot always ease a sense of loneliness. Zhu Ziqing, awell-known professor of Tsinghua University, signed with emotion: “My loneliness increases as scene becomes much busier.” One popular song today is also called “A lonely man in crowds.” Actually, engaging in social intercourse requires ability, while being alone involves the whole character.These days, it is not easy to calm down totally and return to one’s true self. Willpower, intellect and discipline are required. Einstein said: “It is not your working time but your spare time that determines the possibility of whether you will be successful or not.” The “spare time” he referred to could be taken as “spending time by yourself.”Lonely life could be either dull, boring and tasteless or abundant, interesting and colorful, depending on one’s quality, ambition and inspiration.Just as the body constantly requires energy, the mind and soul also demand unceasing inputs. However, information, to processed and integrated(融入)into knowledge, thoughts and feelings, instead of bustle(忙碌)seems to be the right condition. Successful careers in all walks of life worldwide have proved that “the soul grows in peace and talent isnurtured in loneliness”. In a sense, it may be reasonable to say that “Happiness tends to be shallow while loneliness involves profundity”.Man, in fact, needs loneliness more than happy time, and only abundant loneliness can produce quality happiness.1.Which of the following can replace the underlined the word “boisterously” in paragraph 1?A. surprisinglyB. sadlyC. busilyD. peacefully2.What can we infer from the second paragraph?A. Being alone marks people depressed.B. Social intercourse improves our happiness.C. One may feel lonely even when surrounded by peopleD. We should attend social intercourse to decrease our loneliness.3.What can we know from Einstein’s words?A. You should be successful if you spend all your time by yourself.B. You should exercise more if you want to keep your minds healthy.C. You will not become successful if you join in more social intercourse.D. You will be more successful if you can make your lonely time meaningful.4.Which may be the best title for this passage?A. Live On Your OwnB. Happiness and LonelinessC. The secret of successD. Practice Your Social Ability【文章大意】这是一篇议论文，讲述了幸福和孤独之间的关系。
2021年高考英语新课标版一轮专题复习之阅读理解54Word版含答案
阅读理解专题卷54Last year more than 13 Korean TV series were introduced in China. Turn on the TV, and Korean beauties are appearing during peak viewing times(黄金时段). Some of the dramas are being repeated, but audiences continue to watch them. Why are the South Korean TV series loved by so many Chinese people? Cheng Yiting, a student from East China Normal University, gives us her reasons. She thinks that the good-looking actors with cool clothes and the beautiful sight in the dramas are the selling points for South Korean TV dramas. But what attracted the young audiences most is the pure and moving love stories.And it seems that South Korean TV series has also won the hearts of middle-aged people. They are touched by the morals(道德)in the shows. These include the importance of respecting elders and social order. Though some people think South Korean TV series are too slow and too long, most of the Chinese audiences like them. Maybe we are really tired of Western TV series. Compared with that, South Korean TV series are not bad.1．What does the underlined word "repeated" in the third line mean?A．大长今B．流行 C．重播D．垃圾时段2．Which of the following is not mentioned（提及）about South Korean TV series in the passage?A．Love. B．Morals.C．Social order. D．The youth self-respect.3．What is the main reason why South Korean TV series are popular?A．The series are slow and long.B．The actors wear cool clothes.C．The stories with morals in them are pure and moving.D．The actors are cool.4．What do you know about South Korean TV series from the passage?A．Thirteen more South Korean TV series will be introduced to China.B．Young audiences like South Korean TV series better than middle aged people.C．All the South Korean TV series will be repeated this year.D．Some Chinese think part of South Korean TV series are worth watching twice.Reading is the key to success in all school subjects. With a bit of creativity, you can help your child enjoy reading more, and encourage him to do more!Buy or borrow a lot of “fun” books. Choose books that are slightly below his level of reading ability. Don’t forget what your child likes to do when choosing books for him. Don’t comment about the books. Simply leave the books lying on the table where your child is sure to see them. Computer games are not as harmful as most parents usually think them to be. Instead, you should take advantage of your child’s love of computer games to purchase those that require a lot of reading and avoid those that are simply computerized video games.Buy your child a bedside reading lamp, or a tiny book light. Tell him that from now on, he must be in bed by a specific time (say 8:30) and that he can either sleep or read. Most kids will do anything else ra ther than go to sleep, so there’s a chance you’ll create a new bedtime reading habit. Many children will read when they are sitting alone having a snack, or when they have a few minutes of unplanned free time. Put a box of books and magazines near the kitchen table so that reading material is available.Often, once children learn to read independently, parents stop reading to them. This change of routine causes great sadness to a child who has come to love falling asleep as you read. Even a teenager will enjoy being read to if you pick books that interest him. Select books together, and make sure they’re ones you enjoy as well, so your enjoyment will come through as you read to them.5．To make children become interested in reading, parents should _______.A. choose books based on their interestB. tell them what they can learn from these booksC. choose the easiest books for them to readD. always read books together with them6．Which of the following is NOT what parents are advised to do?A. Pick the right computer games.B. Reduce children’s sleeping time.C. Have reading material available.D. Read to children when possible.7．What attitude do most parents hold towards children playing computer games?A. Supportive.B. Doubtful.C. Negative.D. Neutral (中立的).8．The main idea of the passage is to ________.A. help children succeed in school subjectsB. give parents advice on how to educate childrenC. remind parents of the importance of readingD. teach parents how to encourage children to readWhen you get in your car, you reach for it. When you're at work, you take a break to have a moment alone with it. When you get into a lift, you play with it.Cigarette? Cup of coffee? No, it's the third most addictive thing in modem life, the cell phone. And experts say it is becoming more difficult for many people to curb their longing to hug it more tightly than most of their personal relationships.The costs are becoming more and more evident, and I don't mean just the monthly bill. Dr.Chris Knippers, a counselor at the Betty ford Center in Southern California, reports that the overuse of cell phones has become a social problem not much different from other harmful addictions: a barrier to one-on -one personal contact, and an escape from reality. Sounds extreme, but we' ve all witnessed the evidence: The person at a restaurant who talks on the phone through an entire meal, ignoring his kids around the table; the woman who talks on the phone in the car, ignoring her husband; the teen who texts messages all the way home from school, avoiding contact with kids all around him. Jim Williams, an industrial sociologist based in Massachusetts, notes that cell - phone addiction is part of a set of symptoms in a widening gulf of personal separation. He points to a study by Duke University researchers that found one-quarter of Americans say they have no one to discuss their most important personal business with. Despite the growing use of phones, e - mail and instant messaging, in other words, Williams says studies show that we don't have as many friends as our parents. “Just as more information has led to less wisdom, more acquaintances via the Internet and cel l phoneshave produced fewer friends,” he says.If the cell phone has truly had these effects, it's because it has become very widespread. Consider that in 1987, there were only l million cell phones in use. Today, something like 300 million Americans carry them. They far outnumber wired phones in the United States.9．From the first two paragraphs, we can know ．A ．cell phones have become as addictive as cigarettesB．cell phone addiction is good for building personal relationshipsC．people are longing to have their own cell phonesD．cell phones are the same as cigarettes10．Cell phone addiction has caused the following effects EXCEPT .A．a barrier to personal contact B．fewer friendsC．an escape from reality D．a serious illness11．The underlined word "curb" in Paragraph 2 means “．”A．ignore B．control C．develop D．rescue12．The example of a woman talking on the phone in the car supports the idea that . A．women Use cell phones more often than menB．talking on the phone while driving is dangerousC．cell phones do not necessarily bring people togetherD．cell phones make one - on - one personal contact easy13．Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A． Cell phones Are the New CigarettesB．Cell phones Are Harmful to the SocietyC．The New Report about the Cell phoneD．The Disadvantages of the Cell phoneImagine that someone in your neighborhood broke the law, and the judge put the whole neighborhood under suspicion. How fair will that be? Well, it happens every day to high schoolers. Just because some students have stolen things in shops, all of us are treated like “shoplifters”. Even though I’d never steal, s tore employees looked at me like I’m some kind of hardened criminal mastermind. For example, during one lunch period, my friend Denny and I went to the Grab “n” Go on Tuesday. We arrived to find a line of students waiting outside. A new sign in the window told the story:“NO MORE THAN TWO STUDENTS AT A TIME.” After 15 minutes, we finally got in. But the store manger laid the evil eye on us. I asked him about the new sign, and he said, “You kids are lifting too much stuff.” You kids? Too much stuff? Not only were we considered to be shoplifters, but brilliant, greedy shoplifters.The Grab “n” Go isn’t an isolated case. Earlier this year, a department store worker told me to leave my backpack at the front of the store. When I asked who was going to keep an eye on my stuff, she said, “Don’t worry. It is n’t going anywhere.”In other words, I had to risk losing my stuff so that the store wouldn’t have to risk losing theirs. “Don’t worry,”I replied, “I don’t need to shop here.”The most annoying thing, though, is the way employees watch my friends and me. It’s almost strange and frightening. Once, at a drug store, I went down an aisle and found a guy standing on a box, stocking the shelves. He was watching my hands, which were empty.

By exampleB. By classificationC. By comparison and contrastD. By cause and effectDevelopment of a widely accepted chronology for the arrival of humans has been equally difficult, and it was only with the development of optically stimulated luminescence dating that a human presence in Australia was confirmed at 53,000 to 60,000 years ago. Older dates for a human presence in Australia have now been shown to be erroneous .The importance of Australia as a separate natural laboratory in which to test extinction theories lies in the fact that humans arrived there much earlier than they arrived in the other continental areas (the Americas and northern Eurasia) that experienced substantial megafaunal extinction. What Miller et al. have shown is that the extinction of Genyornis occurred simultaneously across southeastern Australia (indeed probably right across the continent) about 50,000 years ago. This is very close to the presently accepted time of arrival of humans in Australia. It was also a period of modest climate change, well before the dramatic climatic fluctuations of the terminal Pleistocene. The data of Miller et al., therefore, support those who see human hunting rather than climate as causing the extinction of the megafauna.Genyornis was a ponderous bird, around 80 to 100 kg in weight, about twice as heavy as the living emu and cassowary. It was an inhabitant of Australia s inland plains and some coastal regions, but its legs were relatively short and thick, suggestion that it was a slower runner than the emu. Proponents of human caused extinction suggest that it is just such characteristics that made the megafauna vulnerable to human hunting.A new school of thought has recently established itself in the extinction debate. It advocates the idea that a combination of human impact and climate change was responsible for the extinction of。

UNIT 5 单元主题训练Ⅰ.阅读理解A2024·山东淄博模拟To deal with a changing world, we have to change as well. Transforming land into farms removes forests and worsens climate change. But we need to grow more food to support a growing global population. What can we do?Scientists have discovered that plants grow best under a certain type of light, which can be provided by red and blue LEDs. The combination of these lights at the right level makes a space look pink. Since “pinkhouses” supply their own light, they don't need to have fragile glass walls and ceilings. And they can be set up anywhere, including the places that don't get the amount of light greenhouses need.Since pinkhouses can pack food in huge columns, one of these farms doesn't need a lot of land. Farmers can set up pinkhouses in cities. They completely control temperature and light, which can help some plants grow twice as well in pinkhouses as they do in traditional farming. Pinkhouses can allow for many more harvests per year since farming doesn't have to stop in winter.Even though pinkhouses are a great way to grow crops, lighting and heating an indoor space can be very expensive. It doesn't make sense to grow foods that take up a lot of space or that we need to grow lots of, like wheat, rice, and corn, in a pinkhouse. We will still need to grow those crops in fields. We can start farming smarter.Farmers will use satellite imagery to figure out exactly where to plant each crop. Think of a mixture of just the right crops, rather than a rectangle(长方形) of one type of plant. Sensors in the fields will measure the soil's water level, temperature, and chemical content. They will even be able to detect insects and send out notifications to a smartphone app. Irrigation systems will be tied to weather forecasting programs, allowing for very precise watering and care, all calculated to get the best plant growth and yield.语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。

练习55 阅读理解＋读后续写Ⅰ.阅读理解Ais a celebration of an everyday object—the book, represented here in almost three hundred artworks from museums around the world. The image of the reader appears throughout history, in art made long before books as we now know them came into being. In artists' representations of books and reading, we see moments of shared humanity that go beyond culture and time.In this “book of books，” artworks are selected and arranged in a way that emphasizes these connections between different eras and cultures. We see scenes of children learning to read at home or at school, with the book as a focus for relations between the generations. Adults are portrayed (描绘) alone in many settings and poses—absorbed in a volume, deep in thought or lost in a moment of leisure. These scenes may have been painted hundreds of years ago, but they record moments we can all relate__to．Books themselves may be used symbolically in paintings to demonstrate the intellect (才智), wealth or faith of the subject. Before the wide use of the printing press, books were treasured objects and could be works of art in their own right. More recently, as books have become inexpensive or even throwaway, artists have used them as the raw material for artworks—transforming covers, pages or even complete volumes into paintings and sculptures.Continued developments in communication technologies were once believed to make the printed page outdated. From a 21stcentury point of view, the printed book is certainly ancient, but it remains as interactive as any batterypowered ereader. To serve its function, a book must be activated by a user: the cover opened, the pages parted, the contents reviewed, perhaps notes written down or words underlined. And in contrast to our increasingly networked lives where the information we consume is monitored and tracked, a printed book still offers the chance of a wholly private, “offline” activity.1．Where is the text most probably taken from?A．An introduction to a book.B．An essay on the art of writing.C．A guidebook to a museum.D．A review of modern paintings.2．What are the selected artworks about?A．Wealth and intellect.B．Home and school.C．Books and reading.D．Work and leisure.3．What do the underlined words “relate to” in Paragraph 2 mean?A．Understand. B．Paint.C．Seize. D．Transform.4．What does the author want to say by mentioning the ereader?A．The printed book is not totally out of date.B．Technology has changed the way we read.C．Our lives in the 21st century are networked.D．People now rarely have the patience to read.BThere is nothing quite like enjoying the sights, sounds and culture of a city while tasting a cup of coffee outdoors. But it is not that enjoyable when heat waves sweep the city. An outdoor cooling system produced by Green Kinonko , an Israeli (以色列的) company , began to be tested in Tel Aviv. The sweltering city is a perfect place to try the new technology.With global warming heating up the temperature, it will soon be too hot to sit outside in cafes. While outdoor cooling systems have existed for a while，most of them use some sort of water or a misting system to cool the air around them, consuming too much water and power. After two years of development, the perfect solution to the problem was found. “We ha ve invented a new generation of air conditioners，” Green Kinonko's CEO Leizer said.As Leizer introduced, the energy is from the pressure created between liquid nitrogen (氮) and gas nitrogen. When liquid nitrogen at －196 ℃ turns into gas, it produces a very strong pressure and the pressure is used to run a mechanical engine. It is the mechanical engine that slowly releases freezing nitrogen gas to cool down the air around it.The technology is unique and amazing. Beyond the coolness of the concept，i t also has other advantages. The work unit doesn't need to be powerdriven, and doesn't blow out harmful warm air as it works. As for the potential price, it will probably be no more expensive than any other air conditioner. In addition, the liquid nitrogen container will need to be replaced every seven to ten days, depending on usage. This makes it an affordable option for all sorts of businesses. The cooling system is expected to be on the market in 2024.5．What does the underlined word “sweltering” in Paragraph 1 mean?A．Warm. B．Dry.C．Hot. D．Freezing.6．What problem does the existing outdoor cooling systems have?A．They are wasteful.B．They overheat easily.C．They often break down.D．They are slow to cool the air.7．What does Paragraph 3 mainly explain?A．What powers the engine.B．What turns liquid into gas.C．How the pressure is formed.D．How the new system works.8．What is the purpose of this text?A．To promote a company.B．To settle an energy crisis.C．To introduce a technology.D．To market a misting system.Ⅱ.读后续写[2022·新高考Ⅰ卷]阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

手惰市安逸阳光实验学校课时跟踪练30 Unit 5 The power of natureⅠ.阅读理解AIf humans pump enough carbon dioxide(CO2)into the atmosphere，stratocumulus clouds(层积云)could disappear，and the Earth's temperature could climb sharply to heights not predicted in current climate models.It would burn the planet.That's the conclusion of a paper published in the journal Nature Geoscience and described in detail by Natalie Wolchover for Quanta Magazine.As Wolchover explained，clouds have long been one of the great uncertainties of climate puter models that easily capture the complexity and detail of most climate systems just aren't powerful enough to predict worldwide changes in the behaviour of clouds.But clouds are important.They reflect sunlight away from the Earth'ssurface.And stratocumulus clouds are those white blankets you might have seen as you look out the window of the airplane，rolling out below you and hiding the ground.Researchers suspect that certain sudden jumps in temperature may have been caused by changes to clouds like these.For the new research，scientists modeled just a small patch of sky using a supercomputer.They found that if carbon dioxide levels reach about 1，200 parts per million(ppm)in the atmosphere，stratocumulus clouds will break up.That's a very high carbon dioxide concentration.Right now，levels have climbed past 410 ppm—a dangerous change from 280 ppm before the Industrial Revolution.But humans put more and more CO2 into the atmosphere every year.If current trends continue，the Earth could reach 1，200 ppm within 100 to 150 years.This could happen if our society doesn't follow through on any of its commitments to reduce emissions(排放物)，Wolchover reported.And even if it does，the result would be another 8 degrees Celsius of heat added to the global an average，on top of the dangerous changes already underway due to greenhouse gases.That's an enormous change，and it goes beyond predictions of worldwide ice melt and catastrophic sea level rise.And，once stratocumulus clouds are gone，Wolchover reported，they likely wouldn't reappear until atmospheric carbon dioxide levels dropped below wherethey are currently.There's still some uncertainty in the data.The 1，200 ppm figure could change as scientists look into the issue further.1．What can we learn from Paragraph 2?A．Most climate systems are not complex.B．The behaviour of clouds is uncertain and hard to predict.C．Temperature changes affect stratocumulus clouds.D．The stratocumulus clouds protect planes from sunlight.2．What does “it”refer to in Paragraph 4?A．The atmosphere. B．The earth.C．Our society. D．The result.3．Which of the following statements would Wolchover most probably agree with ?A．The effects of CO2 emissions have been fully assessed.B．Stratocumulus clouds won't return if they are gone.C．The breakup of stratocumulus clouds could result in catastrophes.D．Once CO2 level reaches 1，200 ppm，stratocumulus clouds will go extinct.【语篇解读】本文主要介绍了人类如果继续向大气中排放二氧化碳可能造成的后果及原因。

Unit 5 PoemsⅠ.阅读理解A(2024·淮南市高三第一次模拟)Louise Gluck has been no stranger to awards over her long and storied career since her first publication in 1968. In 1993, she won the Pulitzer Prize for her collection of poems, The Wild Iris. And on Oct 8 (2024) she became the 16th woman to win the Nobel Prize in literature with the Nobel prizes first awarded in 1901.Gluck was honored “for her unmistakable poetic voice that, with plain and simple beauty, makes individual existence universal”. Often said to be an au tobiographical poet, drawing from the inner parts of her life, “Gluck seeks the universal，” Nobel Committee Chair Anders Olsson said in a statement.Gluck, 77, the author of 12 poetry collections, has been able to turn her life experiences into universal themes covering life, loss, and isolation. Because of this, readers have often found her poetry to be “dark”. However, there is much more than darkness in her voice, as noted by Olsson. “It is candid and also a voice full of humor and biting wit.” he said.For example, in her poem Snowdrops, she uses the coming of spring after winter to show rebirth of life after death. She leads readers down a depressing path only to reconnect with the light at the near end. At the conclusion of the poem, readers are left t o feel the “raw wind of the new world” as they watch a new spring. This is often the case in Gluck's poetry, being able to feel joy even after not having done so for a long time.When her work Faithful Virtuous Night received a National Book Award for Poetry in 2014, a judge for the award went on to say, the collection comes from “a world where darkness blurs (模糊) ordinarily sharp edges around the oppositions of our lives-loss and renewal, male and female, the living and the dead”．Talking of prizes, she ac knowledged that they can make “existence in the world easier” but did not amount to the immortality (永生) of a true artist. “I want to live after I die, in that ancient way.” she said. “And there's no way of knowing whether that will happen, and there will be no knowing, no matter how many blue ribbons have been used to cover my body.” The remark is in line with Olsson's description of Gluck's poetic voice as “candid and uncompromising” but frequently witty.语篇导读：本文是一篇说明文。

Do you know how it is when you see someone yawn and you start yawning too? Or how hard it is to be among people laug hing and not laugh yourself? Well, apparently it’s because we have mirror neurons (神经元) in our brains.Put simply, the existence of mirror neurons suggests that ever y time we see someone else do something, our brains imitate (模仿) it, whether or not we actually perform the same action. Thi s explains a great deal about how we learn to smile, talk, walk , dance or play sports. But the idea goes further: mirror neuro ns not only appear to explain physical actions, they also tell u s that there is a biological basis for the way we understand ot her people.Mirror neurons can undoubtedly be found all over our brains, but especially in the areas which relate to our ability to use lan guages, and to understand how other people feel. Researcher s have found that mirror neurons relate strongly to language.A group of researchers discovered that if they gave people sentences to listen to (for example: “The hand took hold of the b all”) , the same mirror neurons weretriggered as when the acti on was actually performed (in this example, actually taking hol d of a ball) .Any problems with mirror neurons may well result in problems with behavior. Much research suggests that people with soci al and behavioral problems have mirror neurons which are not fully functioning. However, it is not yet known exactly how the se discoveries might help find treatments for social disorders. Research into mirror neurons seems to provide us with ever more information concerning how humans behave and interac t (互动) . Indeed, it may turn out to be the equivalent (相等物) for neuroscience of what Einstein’s theory of relativity was for physics. And the next time you feel the urge to cough in th e cinema when someone else does—well, perhaps you’ll understand why.1. Mirror neurons can explain .A. why we cry when we are hurtB. why we cough when we suffer from a coldC. why we smile when we see someone else smileD. why we yawn when we see someone else stay up late2. The underlined word“triggered”in the third paragraph probably means“”.A. set offB. cut offC. built upD. broken up3. We can learn from the passage that mirror neurons .A. relate to human behavior and interactionB. control human physical actions and feelingsC. result in bad behavior and social disordersD. determine our knowledge and language abilities4. What is the passage mainly about?to find mirror neurons. B. Problems of mirror neurons.C. Existence of mirror neurons.D. Functions of mirror neurons.【参考答案】1—4、CAAD社会生活类----阅读理解。

The Pacifi c Ocean is the largest of the world’s four oceans. Its name comes from the Latin meaning “peaceful sea”， and was given by the Portuguese explorer Ferdinand Magellan, whose voyage was plain there. However, the Pacific is not always peaceful. Its islands are often hit by typhoons, and the countries surrounding it have many volcanoes and are often hit by earthquakes. Tsunamis (海啸 ), caused by underwater earthquakes, have destroyed many low－lying coastal towns.The Ocean contains about 46% of Earth’s surface water, and makes up about 32% of its total surface area, more than all of the planet’s land areas. The equator (赤道) divides it into the North Pacific and the South Pacific Oceans, the latter of which contains most of its largest 25,000 islands. The largest landmass entirely within the Pacific Ocean is the island of New Guinea, with Australia to its south；it has been the world’s second－largest island since separating from the Australian mainland.The lowest point on Earth, the Mariana Trench (海沟), lies 10,911 meters below the surface of the Pacific, but the Ocean’s average depth is 4,280 meters.The water temperature of the Pacific varies from freezing at the poles to about 300C near the equator. Its salinity (盐分) also varies from place to place. The water near the equator is less salty because of the rainfall there, but at the poles salinity is also low, because little evaporation (蒸发) takes place in the cold water of these areas.The exploitation (开采) of the Pacific’s mineral wealth is difficult in its deeper parts. However, in the shallow waters of the continental shelves off the coasts of Australia and New Zealand, oil and natural gas are exploited, and pearls are harvested along the coasts of Australia, Japan, Nicaragua and the Philippines.The Pac ific’s greatest wealth is its fish, but the fishing industry has been harmed greatly by marine pollution. The biggest harm comes from rivers that carry into the Ocean many chemicals used as fertilizers in agriculture, as well as waste. These days many countries are coming together to try to protect the Ocean.1. Ferdinand Magellan gave the Ocean its name because he________.A. expected to live a peaceful lifeB．hoped there would be no more warsC．came upon no serious storms while crossing itD．expected to stay safe and healthy there2. From the passage, what do we know about the Pacific Ocean?A．It contains about 32% of the Earth’s surface water.B．It has suffered many natural disasters.C．Its deeper parts haven’t been exploited.D．New Guinea is on the north of it.3. Why is the water at the poles less salty?A．Little of it turns into steam.B．There is abundant rainfall there.C．The ocean currents are slow there.D．Melting snow adds water to the ocean.4. We can infer from the passage that________.A. countries near the Ocean benefit from being on itB．pearls are a major source of income in JapanC．most people prefer to live near the OceanD．all the countries along the Ocean are developed[解题导语] 本文从几个方面简要介绍太平洋。

(2014·九江模拟)It’s commo n for parents to feel emotional when the moment comes for their child to leave home and go to university. Even parents who don’t speak about the event are likely to fe el a sense of sadness because it’s the end of an era when you and your family were at the centre of your child’s world. As a parent you’ll probably continue to support your child in different ways, but the main job of raising your child is over. It’s a hug e change for everyone involved.There are a few things that you can do to make the transition easier. Plan carefully for your child’s departure and think about how you can help. Many parents take their child to university for the first time. If you decide to do that, be ready to feel a real wrench when the time comes to say goodbye. Your child will probably be as nervous as you are about the moment when you finally say goodbye—but that might not show!Be positive and cheerful about the choice your child has made to continue studying, and plan to leave once you’ve unpacked the car and looked around your child’s new living accommodations. If you can, save your tears for the car—you’ll make things easier on your child and yourself.The more you’ve invested in being a parent, the more you’ll feel a sense of loss, so the sadness you feel now is a sign that you’ve been a good mom or dad. Remind yourself that parenting is all about raising an independent and confident child who functions well without you. If your child quickly settles and starts enjoying himself, you should congratulate yourself.It’s also only fair to allow yourself some time to grieve(悲痛). Don’t expect to pick yourself up and move on straight away. But you may decide to find a hobby or sport to fill your extra time. Perhaps you’ve always wanted to learn a new language, go to yoga classes or take up swimming. You may decide to spend more time with family and close friends, who are likely to be feeling the absence of your child as well.Agree on the best approach to staying in touch before your child leaves, and stick to your agreement. Try not to panic if your child doesn’t respond immediately—remember, he is starting a new and busy life.【文章大意】本文主要讲述孩子上大学后, 父母如何避免过度伤心。

So what should you teach your children?Calling for helpOnce your child reaches the age of four, he should know all about calling 911 in the event of an emergency. Explain all about what a real emergency is. For example, he should call 911 if an adult asks him to, if an adult passes out and cannot be woken, if there is a fire and he can't find an adult, or if people are hurt.As I am typing this, I just realized that although my kids are taught about 911, the telephones in the house are out of reach for all but my oldest child (to prevent the other two from playing with the phone). Don't make this_mistake yourself, or your children wouldn't get in touch with the police in time.Cuts and scrapes (擦伤)T each children about basic care for cuts and scrapes. In my house, the kids all know that cuts must be cleaned and know where the bandages are. They also know how to put pressure on a cut to make it stop bleeding. Of course they should ask an adult for help, but they should also know a bit about self care. Believe it or not, I had to help a teenage neighbour once who had no idea what to do when he cut his hand on broken glass. He just ran around in a circle.BurnsT ell your child that if he ever gets a burn, he should immediately call for help and then run the cool but not cold water for the burn. Getting a burn cooled down quickly can reduce the damage to the skin. This is important if no adult is with your child when a burn occurs.语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。

Hu Liang, from Central China's Hubei province, moved to Finland after graduation at 21. Twelve years on, he has seen more and more Chinese tourists visiting the country to enjoy the winter holiday, Aurora Borealis—and of course, the home of Santa Claus. “Chinese people are becoming richer and more international. What has not changed is their stomachs. So I made the decision to op en the restaurant.”Hu's restaurant serves reganmian, a traditional Wuhan noodle dish with spicy flavor and a sesame paste dressing, as well as Chinese hot pot. He orders food materials from Chinese trade corporations through ecommence platforms and offers epayment popular among Chinese people such as Alipay.

As scientists look deeper into our genes (基因), they are finding examples of human evolution in just the past few thousand years. People in Ethiopian highlands have adapted to living at high altitudes. Cattleraising people in East Africa and northern Europe have gained a mutation (突变) that helps them digest milk as adults.On Thursday in an article published in Cell, a team of researchers reported a new kind of adaptation—not to air or to food, but to the ocean. A group of seadwelling people in Southeast Asia have evolved into better divers. The Bajau, as these people are known, number in the hundreds of thousands in Indonesia, Malaysia and the Philippines. They have traditionally lived on houseboats; in recent times, they've also built houses on stilts (支柱) in coastal water s. “They are simply a stranger to the land，” said Rodney C. Jubilado, a University of Hawaii researcher who studies the Bajau.Dr. Jubilado first met the Bajau while growing up on Samal Island in the Philippines. They made a living as divers, spearfishing or harvesting shellfish. “We were so amazed that they could stay underwater much longer than us local islanders，” Dr. Jubilado said. “I could see them actually walking under the sea.”In 2015, Melissa Ilardo, then a graduate student in genetics at the University of Copenhagen, heard about the Bajau. She wondered if centuries of diving could have led to the evolution of physical characteristics that made the task easier for them. “It seemed like the perfect chance for natural selection to act on a population，” said Dr. Ilardo. She also said there were likely a number of other genes that help the Bajau dive.5．What does the author want to tell us by the examples in paragraph 1?A．Environmental adaptation of cattle raisers.B．New knowledge of human evolution.C．Recent findings of human origin.D．Significance of food selection.6．Where do the Bajau build their houses?A．In valleys.

湖南汨罗市2017高考英语阅读理解一轮选练（五）【2015高考复习】阅读理解Public bookshelves are appearing across Germany on street corners，city squares and in suburban supermarkets.In these freeforall libraries，people can grab whatever they want to read，and leave behind anything they wa nt for others.There’s no need to register，no due date，and you can take or give as many as you want.“This project is aimed at everyone who likes to read.It is open for everybody，” Michael Aubermann，one of the organizers of the free book exchange said.The western city’s lat est public shelf was put up next to Bayenturm.It is the fourth free shelf that Aubermann’s group，the Cologne Citizen’s Foundation，has placed outside.“We set up our other outdoor shelves last year and it’s been working really well，” said Aubermann.The public bookshelves，which are usually financed by donations and cared for by local volunteer groups，have appeared independently of each other in many cities，suburbs and villages.Each shelf holds around 200 books and it takes about six weeks for a complete turnover，with all the old titles replaced by new ones.Even commercial book stores and online book sellers seem to support the idea of free book exchanges.“We see this project rather as a sales promotion than as competition，” said Elmar Muet her.“If books are present everywhere，it helps our business，too.”So far，the Cologne book group has had few problems with damage or other problems.Aubermann said，“Propaganda (宣传) is the only kind of literature we do not allow here.”At another bookshelf in the Bayenthal neighborhood，the lower shelves are reserved for children’s literature only.“It is important that we make it easy for everyone to participate in this ‘reading culture on the street’—from old readers to kids to immigrants，” Aubermann said.While most of the shelves have so far been put up in upscale_neighborhoods，Aubermann and the 20 volunteers who help look after the project are planning to put up future shelves in poor neighborhoods，where citizens often don’t have as much access to literature.【语篇解读】在德国的城市街角、广场和郊区超市，一排排公共书架出现在人们的视野中。
