Coming across me wandering through the traffic, motorists probably would have to step rapidly on their brakes.Apart from that, there were all sorts of disasters that used to occur on the way to and from work.One evening, I got off the bus about halfway home where I had to change buses, and as usual I ran into something. “I'm awfully sorry,” I said and stepped forward only to run into it again.When it happened a third time, I realized I had been apologizing to a lamppost.This was just one of the stupid things that constantly happened to me.So I carried on and found the bus stop, which was a request stop, where the bus wouldn't stop unless passengers wanted to get on or off.No one else was there and I had to try to guess if the bus had arrived.Generally in this situation, because I hated showing I was blind by asking for help, I tried to guess at the sound.Sometimes I would stop a big lorry and stand there feeling stupid as it drew away.In the end, I usually managed to swallow my pride and ask someone at the stop for help.But on this particular evening no one joined me at the stop. It seemed that everyone had suddenly decided not to travel by bus.Of course I heard plenty of buses pass, or I thought I did.But because I had given up stopping them for fear of making a fool of myself, I let them all go by.I stood there alone for half an hour without stopping one.Then I gave up.I decided to walk on to the next stop.11.The girl refused to ask for help because she thought ________.A.she might be recognizedB.asking for help looked sillyC.she was normal and independentD.being found blind was embarrassing12.After the girl got off the bus that evening, she________.A.began to runB.hit a person as usualC.hit a lamppost by accidentD.was caught by something13.At the request stop that evening, the girl________.A.stopped a big lorryB.stopped the wrong busC.made no attempt to stop the busD.was not noticed by other people14.What was the problem with guessing at the sound to stop a bus?A.Other vehicles also stopped there.B.It was unreliable for making judgments.C.More lorries than buses responded to the girl.D.It took too much time for the girl to catch the bus.BPhil Moriarty, one of the most successful American swimming and diving coaches and a legend at Yale, died on Saturday in Connecticut, US.He was 98.Moriarty, who coached the United States diving team at the Rome Olympics in 1960, helped train some of his time's greatest swimmers, among them the Olympic gold medalists Don Schollander, Steve Clark, Mike Austin, John Nelson and Jeff Farrell.He also coached Olympic diving champions like Bob Clotworthy and David Browning.In 1960, Moriarty's divers won two gold and four silver medals in Rome.Moriarty had been the diving coach at Yale since 1939 when, in 1959, he succeeded Bob Kiphuth as the swimming team coach.“When I came to Yale,” Clark said, “I was a restless little boy depending on blazing speed and luck.I matured with Phil so that he didn't have to hold my hand.He let me grow and gave me confidence.”Philip Edward Moriarty was born on April 12, 1914, in New Haven.He graduated from high school in 1932. Though he did not have a college degree, he got a job teaching swimming to Yale students of his age.He also designed a revolutionary starting block that allowed backstrokers(仰泳运动员)to avoid pushing off a slippery wall.It was successful in the United States, but after three years the international federation refused to approve it.Moriarty promoted backstroke as healthy recreation for the young.When municipal authorities proposed closing public swimming pools to save money in 2008, he opposed the idea in a letter to The Stuart News, a Florida newspaper, saying athletics can help prevent youths from falling into gangs (帮派)and drifting into crime.“The only gangs on swimming teams are relay teams,”he wrote.“The only gun they see is the starter's pistol (发令枪), pointed upward, not at someone.”15.Paragraph 2 is mainly developed ________.A.by time B.by spaceC.by examples D.by comparison16.The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 4 refers to ________.A.the use of a starting block for swimmersB.the admittance of backstroke style into the OlympicsC.the acceptance of Moriarty as a swimming judgeD.the practice of pushing off a slippery wall17.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A.There are criminal relay gangs on swimming teams.B.Moriarty trained a group of swimming champions like Browning.C.Moriarty had performed as a diving coach since 1939 in Kiphuth's place.D.In Moriarty's opinion, athletics can help the youths grow up healthily in society. 18.The passage is probably written to ________.A.take a different look at Moriarty's legendary lifeB.advocate promoting swimming among the youthsC.inform readers of Moriarty's death and achievementsD.describe a few swimming and diving medalists at the OlympicsⅢ.完成句子19.A meteor exploded over Russia's Ural Mountains.

Such quasipets set the psychological stage for what Turkle is really worried about: robot lovers. One woman even says that if a robot acted like it cared, she'd trade in her boyfriend.The book's second half explores the “network”—instant messages, social networks, confessional websites, and the like—and how it reshapes the self. Fifteenyearolds send and receive close to 6,000 messages a month.“They communicate all day but are not sure if they have connected.They develop friendships on social networking sites and then wonder if they are among friends.” In texting, a typical question is“Where are you?”,not an openended one like “How are you?” Just as robots produce confusion ab out whether one is alone or with another, Turkle sighs.“We_are_connected_to_each_other,_but_strangely_more_alone.”“What can't be denied(否认) is that technology, with all its faults, makes life a lot easier. It allows us to get in touch with more people in less time; it can make conversation simple—no small talk required. But are any of those feelings equal to the kind we feel when engaged in a real, facetoface setting? Online, you can ignore others' feelings. In a text message, you can avoid eye contact. A number of studies have found that this generation of teens is becoming unconcerned. Thatdoesn't spell disaster, but it does mean we might want to start thinking about the way we want to live. We've gone through terribly rapid change, and some of these things just need a little sorting out.”Turkle says.This book is not to be missed and worthy of every dollar you spend.31.In her book, Turkle worries that ________.A.the robotic creatures are not aliveB.all women would fall in love with robotsC.children are addicted to keeping animal petsD.more people are lost in the world of technology32.What can be implied from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4?A.Internet sets us apart from each other.B.Social network is not the real world.C.Internet brings us closer to each other.D.Messages are used a lot in people's daily life.33.If a child keeps using messages a lot, he or she may ________.A.get engaged in small talksB.care little for others' feelingsC.get stuck in many disastersD.well sort out personal relationship34.The purpose of writing this passage is to ________.A.recommend a good book to readersB.urge people to keep away from technologyC.analyze the dangers of keeping robots as loversD.explore the relationship between human and technologyⅣ.完成句子35.The minute the shopping mall opened, the customers came ________________________________. (crowd)购物中心一开业,顾客们便蜂拥而入。
2020版高考英语(人教版)一轮复习考点规范练4(必修1Unit+4)Word版含答案
考点规范练4(必修1Unit4)Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2018·天津)Fire Prevention InformationThe University of Adelaide employs a full-time staff of fire prevention professionals.They inspect all campus buildings and test and maintain all sprinkler(喷水灭火装置) systems,fire alarms,and fire extinguishers(灭火器).They also provide educational programs on fire safety in the residencehalls.Whenever you move to a new area,you should locate the fire alarm pull stations and the two exits nearest your room.Fire AlarmsThe floors of all campus buildings are equipped with manual(手动的) fire alarm systems which include fire alarm pull stations and pipes.Most are also equipped with automatic fire alarm systems consisting of heat detectors,smoke detectors and sprinklers.For your safety,never tamper with(胡乱摆弄) these systems.False fire alarms are illegal and may lead to imprisonment.Fire DrillsA fire drill will be conducted in your residence hall every semester.During a fire drill,please do the following:·Take your room key and ID,close and lock the door to your room.·Exit immediately from the nearest emergency exit;do not use a lift.·Meet outside of your residence hall and wait for further instructions.Fire ExtinguishersFire extinguishers are located on each floor and in each e a fire extinguisher only if you have been trained to do so.Irresponsible use of a fire extinguisher can create a dangerous situation for other residents and could result in damage to personal property.Misuse of a fire extinguisher will result in fines. Smoke DetectorsA smoke detector is on the ceiling in your room.Some buildings also have heat detectors on the ceilings.Do the following to ensure the safe operation of your smoke detector:·If your smoke detector is working properly,the red light should be on.If the red light is notblinking(闪动),contact residence hall staff immediately.·Do not cover or block your smoke detector in any way.·If a smoke detector sets off an alarm and there is no fire or smoke, inform your hall staff.1.What is the main duty of the fire prevention professionals?A.To provide part-time jobs for students.B.To lead the students to the nearest exits.C.To check and maintain fire prevention equipment.D.To train teachers to be fire prevention professionals.2.What do the automatic fire alarm systems include?A.Pipes and smoke detectors.B.Smoke detectors and sprinklers.C.Fire alarm pull stations and pipes.D.Sprinklers and fire alarm pull stations.3.In a fire drill,the students should .A.rush quickly to a liftB.gather at the nearest exitC.shut the door and leave at onceD.wait for instructions in the hall4.What do we know about the use of fire extinguishers?ing them wrongly results in punishment.B.Irresponsible use of them can damage them.C.Improper use of them can destroy the apartment.ing them without a trainer present is forbidden.BWant to help fight global warming?Take off your tie,says the Italian health ministry.It has urged employers to let their staff dress casually at work in the summer so that the air conditioning can be turned down.“Taking your tie off immediately lowers the body temperature by 2 or 3 degrees centigrade,”the ministry said in a statement.“Allowing a more sensible use of air conditioning brings about electricity savings and protects the environment.”It called on all public and private offices to let employees wear no ties during heat waves like the one that has brought Africa-like temperatures to many parts of Italy this week.The move echoes(回应) a similar action from Italy’s biggest oil group,ENI,which told its staff earlier this month they need not wear a tie at work.The tie makers,however,were left hot under the collar.“Italy confirms that it is a strange country,”Flavio Cima said angrily in a letter to financial daily Il Sole 24 Ore under the headline:“I,tie maker,am responsible for global warming.”“We can now happily continue with our lifestyle,using cars,consuming fuel,heating and cooling our homes at leisure.On one condition:we should not wear a tie while we do so,”he wrote.“I should have listened to my friends and become an oil producer instead.”Italy is one of the European Union’s worst performers on the pollution front and is among the EU countries expected to exceed(超出) their greenhouse gas emission(排放) targets.5.What’s the purpose of the move of taking off ties?A.To dress casually.B.To fight global warming.C.To keep the body temperature.D.To improve working conditions.6.Who first encouraged employees to take off ties?A.ENI.B.Flavio Cima.C.A financial daily.D.The Italian health ministry.7.What does the underlined part “hot under the collar” in Paragraph 6 probably mean?A.Angry.B.Speechless.C.Delighted.D.Puzzled.8.Which of the following is TRUE about Flavio Cima?A.He stands by the oil group.B.He agrees with the ministry.C.He admits his responsibility.D.He argues against taking off ties.Ⅱ.七选五阅读A laugh track,sometimes called canned laughter,is a collection of pre-recorded audience laughter and applause sounds added to television programs during post-production.The main purpose of the track is to trigger(激发) a response from home viewers who may not understand all of the intended humour when watching a taped sitcom(situation comedy).1Therefore,canned laughter causes natural reactions to comedies.2The producers of the Hank McCune Show added canned laughter after the show’s taping.Until that time,other radio and television comedies used a live studio audience or no canned laughter at all.In 1953,a sound engineer named Charley Douglass invented the Laff Box,a small electronic device(装置) containing numerous sounds of recorded laughter and applause.It is said that Charley Douglass selected almost all of his laugh track material from in-studio recordings of several different comedy shows.3 During the 1970s,many sitcoms chose to get rid of the practice altogether or mix live audience reactions with the canned laughter.Filming a show in front of a live audience became a symbol of honour.4 Live audiences did not always provide a usable response,especially after a long day of retakes.Today,the same company created by Charley Douglass offers an improved digital version of the original Laff Box.5Most sitcoms produced today are still recorded in front of a live audience,but a more subtle laugh track can be used to improve weak responses.A.However,there was a problem.B.The belief is that laughter creates laughter.C.The first known use of a recorded laugh track is said to be in 1950.D.The effective use of canned laughter is considered more of an art than a science.E.Douglass recorded different styles of laughter and applause without the sound of dialogue.F.If this is true,audience reactions in modern sitcoms may have actually been recorded several years ago.G.In addition to the original laughter and applause,there are tracks for foreign audiences and children’s shows.Ⅲ.书面表达假如你是新华中学的高三学生李华,你的美国朋友John最近在网上看到中国谚语“He who has never been to the Great Wall is not a true man”,想了解相关信息,因此给你写了一封信。

Chicago presented new studies showing how food and its production affect global warming.They offered some suggestions for how to eat in a more environmentally friendly way.For many years,scientists have warned us that our planet is getting warmer.If current trends continue,animals may start to die off and life could get very difficult for everyone.The temperature is rising because humans have been releasing massive amounts of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere,which surround the planet and keep heat from escaping.One of these gases is carbon dioxide.Most carbon dioxide we produce comes from the process of making and eating food,the scientists reported in Chicago.The production of meat contributes to a lot of carbon dioxide.And much of meat’s contribution comes from beef,which is responsible for releasing even more greenhouse gases into the atmosphere.The process of making a hamburger,for example,requires a lot of energy.A cow has to be fed and raised,and cow’s wastes are a major source of greenhouse gases.After the cow is killed,the meat has to be processed and shipped to a consumer,which takes fuel.And most of the cow won’t even be used for meat people eat.By the time a hamburger finally lands on a dinner plate,it has taken a heavy toll on the environment.It is believed that the process of making a half-pound all-beef burger adds about 19 times the weight of hamburgers in carbon dioxide.The message is clear:We can greatly reduce the production of greenhouse gases by eating less beef.Other kinds of meat like pork and chicken do less harm to the environment—at least in terms of the amount of greenhouse gases released.Nathan Pelletier,a scientist at Dalhousie University in Canada,reported that if everyone in industrial countries ate chicken instead of beef,we would cut the Earth’s greenhouse gases by more than half.All kinds of meat,the scientists reported,are harder on the planet than vegetables.To grow and eat a pound of potatoes,for example,sends less than one quarter pound of carbon dioxide into the air.So shifting our diet to less meat and more vegetables may do the world some good.36.The text mainly tells us ________.A.what we eat can affect the whole planetB.the way we live affects the environmentC.how we can save energy on the EarthD.how we can produce environment-friendly food37.What is likely to happen if the climate is getting warmer according to the passage?A.Sea level will continue to rise sharply.B.Human beings won’t have enough food.C.It would be very hard for man to survive.D.All the animals and plants will disappear.38.Why does the author mention the process of making a hamburger?A.To show meat is usually part of a hamburger.B.To illustrate that our food contributes to greenhouse gases.C.To prove making a hamburger is a complex process.D.To suggest a lot of energy is needed to make hamburgers.39.The author believes one effective way to fight global warming is ________.A.we should eat no pork and no chickenB.we should eat more chicken than beefC.we should eat not meat but vegetablesD.we should eat less meat and more vegetables40.Which of the following statements would Nathan Pelletier agree to?A.Eating pork and chicken is more environmentally friendly.B.Meat consumption is the main cause of greenhouse gases.C.People in industrial countries consume more beef than fish.D.Eating more beef is a more efficient way to save more energy.答案Ⅰ.单项填空1.D 2.B[burst(感情的)爆发。

Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
People love cellphones,which is why nine in ten Americans own one.But does heavy use of cellphones pose a risk of cancer? This question has caused controversy for many years.A new study in rats nowaugmentsthose concerns.Its data linked long term,intense exposure to radiation from cellphones with an increased risk of cancer in the heart or brain.The results have yet to be confirmed,the authors note.
Phone signals are relayed between cell towers and cellphones via radio waves.This radio frequency—or RF— radiation is a type known as non ionizing(非电离的).Unlike X rays,non ionizing radiation does not deposit enough energy into cells to release electrons from atoms or molecules,producing ions. So it tends to be far less harmful than ionizing radiation,such as X rays.But that does not mean radio waves might not cause harm.

On the night we arrived, we discovered that “our family” was living in a trailer(拖车) that was in poor condition. A crew had been working on it for two weeks, but every time they finished one problem, another surfaced.We decided the only reasonable solution was to build a new house—something unusual but necessary under these circumstances. The family was overjoyed with their new house that was twenty by thirty feet with three bedrooms, a bath and a kitchen.On Tuesday of that week, while we were eating lunch together, I asked the family's three boys, Josh, Eric and Ryan, “What do you want for your new room?”Expecting toys and other gadgets that children usually ask for, we were astonished when Josh responded, “I just want a bed.”The boys had never slept in a bed! They were accustomed to plastic mats. That night we had a meeting and decided that beds would be the perfect gift. On Thursday night, a few adults in our group drove to the nearest city and bought beds and new bedding.When we saw the delivery truck coming, we told the family about the surprise. We could hardly contain ourselves. It was like watching excited children on Christmas morning.That afternoon, as we fitted the frames of the beds together, Eric ran into the house to watch us. Too dirty to enter his room, he observed with wideeyed enthusiasm from the doorway.As my father slipped a pillowcase onto one of the pillows, Eric asked, “What is that?”“A pillow, ” he replied.“What do you do with it?” Eric continued to ask.“When you go to sleep, you put your head on it, ” I answered softly. Tears came to my eyes as my father handed Eric the pillow.“Oh…that's soft, ” he said, hugging it tightly.Now, when my sister or I start to ask for something that seems urgent, mydad gently asks, “Doyouhaveapillow?”We know exactly what he means.16.The writer's first volunteer project was________.A.working on a poor trailerB.helping a poor familyC.donating beds and beddingD.dealing with a housing problem17.On hearing Josh's answer, the writer was shocked because________.A.the family lived in a trailerB.he expected to get some toysC.he didn't know what a bed wasD.the boys had no bed to sleep in18.From the passage, we can learn that Eric had never seen________ before.A.a trailer B.a truckC.a pillow D.a house19.By saying “Doyouhaveapillow?”, the writer's father meansthat________.A.what they want to get may be unnecessaryB.they should not waste money on small thingsC.they should do more volunteer work for the poorD.what he will buy is not what they want but a pillowⅢ.阅读表达Women make better drivers than men for many reasons. Why is that? Wouldn'tyou think that competing at who has better driving abilities is pointless? If you ask me, I'd like to say, men know that women are better drivers but do not havethe courage to admit the truth.Unlike men, women stop for directions when they have no idea where they are going. Women don't drive around for hours pointlessly wasting a tank of gas only to find themselves heading in the wrong direction. Have you ever been in a car with a man who is lost? He tells you to shut up when you begin to open your mouth. And every five minutes or so he takes a turn going fortyfive miles per hour only to find out he's made another wrong turn.Speeding is what men do best on the road. Traffic is not a race. There is a reason why men get more speeding tickets than women. Not because women trick to get out of tickets but only because they don't speed. Women don't risk puttingtheir own lives and the lives of others in danger. In other words, they have more responsibility for life.My largest issue with male drivers is how a majority of them drive with one hand on the wheel and the other hand doing only God knows what. The seat is backed as far as possible. They're totally lost in loud music beyond a necessary level. You don't ever see women driving like that.I feel that the above evidence more than proves my points that women are queens of the road. Oh, men, if you want to continue criticizing women for being bad drivers, bring it on. We know you lack confidence, or else you wouldn't be wasting your valuable time making jokes about the ones you may choose to spend the rest of your days with.20. Who does the author think are the better drivers? (1 word)________________________________________________________________________21. When will women drivers stop to ask for help?

This was the case in many eastern European countries for several years after 1986.Scientists are putting the first spike down to the atomic bomb tests of the 1960s and 1970s where radioactive atoms were blasted into the atmosphere. Air currents caught these atoms and then distributed them around the world.They think the second spike is due to the 1986 Chernobyl disaster in which the reactor exploded in the Ukraine(乌克兰).The effects of Chernobyl were felt locally and no effect was seen in the U.S., probably because it was too far from the disaster to have an effect.“The closer the country was to Chernobyl, the stronger the effect,” said study coauthor Hagen Scherb, a biostatistician(生物统计学家) at the German Research Center for Environmental Health in Munich.More males were born relative to females in Belarus—the Ukraine's neighbour—than in France.The study is based largely on Cold Warera statistics, but the findings are highly relevant for how gender could be affected after future nuclear disasters.And in the wake of Japan's Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant accidentexperts are predicting another baby boy boom could come, especially on the U.S. West Coast.Previous radiation experiments on animals may give a clue for the increase in male births. Tests showed that radiation caused damage to the X chromosome(染色体) in sperm, Dr Scherb said.A human sperm cell contains either an X or Y chromosome, while an egg only has an X chromosome. An XY combination will become a boy, while an XX combination will be a girl.31.How many nuclear radiation accidents are mentioned in the passage?A.1. B.2. C.3. D.4.32.Which of the following is true according to the passage?A.The ontheground incidents like Chernobyl, effected birth gender across the globe.B.There was an increase in the number of baby boys in many eastern European countries for several years after 1986.C.The Japan's nuclear accident will not effect the birth gender of the U.S. because of the long distance.D.Where radioactive material has spread, women can't give birth to children.33.How does radiation effect birth gender?A.It damages the Y chromosome in sperm.B.It stops X chromosomes and Y chromosomes combining.C.It kills baby girls before they are born.D.It damages the X chromosome in sperm.34.What does the passage mainly tell us?A.Nuclear age has led to millions of fewer baby girls being born.B.Nuclear radiation has bad effects upon people's health.C.Worries about radiation risks.D.Nuclear age helps reduce the world population.Ⅳ.完成句子阅读下列各小题,根据每句后的汉语提示,用句末括号内的英语单词完成句子。

Unit 1 Women of achievement课时作业Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2019·河北省普高质监)Martha Graham,born in 1894,was one of the most famous dancers and creators of dance,whose influence on dance has been compared with the influence Picasso had on the modern visual arts.Stravinsky had on music,or Frank Lloyd Wright had on architecture.She created almost two hundred dance pieces.She is often called the Mother of Modern Dance.Earlier in her life,however,Martha did not know that she would become a dancer.At that time,the dancers were looked down on.So Martha's parents didn't approve of her desire to dance at the beginning.Until 1916,she began her studies at the newly created Denishawn School of Dancing and Related Arts,founded by Ruth St.Denis and Ted Shawn,where Graham worked very hard to improve her ability to dance because she was considered too old to begin dancing.In 1936,Graham made her defining work,“Chronicle”,which signaled the beginning of a new era in modern dance.The dance brought serious issues to the stage for the general public in a dramatic manner.Influenced by the Wall Street Crash of 1929,the Great Depression that followed,and the Spanish Civil War,it focused on depression and isolation,reflected in the dark nature of both the set and costumes.Graham continued to dance past the age of seventy.Once again,she was met with criticism from people who came to watch her shows.But she didn't give up.Her last completed ballet was 1990's Maple Leaf Rag.“A Dancer's World” is an introduction to Graham and her work.She tells about her dances and her dance group shows some of their methods.Martha Graham received many awards during her lifetime,including the Presidential Medal of Freedom in nineteen seventy-six.She was the first dancer to receive the country's highest civilian honor.She died in 1991 at the age of ninety -six.In 1998,Time magazine listed her as the “Dancer of the Century” and as oneof the most important people of the twentieth century.【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。

Unit 4 EarthquakesⅠ.阅读理解APeople love cellphones,which is why nine in ten Americans own one.But does heavy use of cellphones pose a risk of cancer? This question has caused controversy for many years.A new study in rats now augments those concerns.Its d ata linked longterm,intense exposure to radiation from cellphones with an increased risk of cancer in the heart or brain.The results have yet to be confirmed,the authors note.Indeed,although the rat study found a link between cellphone radiation and cancer,it offers no clues to why such a link might exist,notes Jonathan Samet.He teaches preventative medicine and directs the Institute for Global Health at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles.Still,he calls the new study's findings “significant”.They could lead to studies researching how cellphone radiation might cause cancer,he says.Phone signals are relayed between cell towers and cellphones via radio waves.This radio frequency—or RF—radiation is a type known as nonionizing(非电离的).Unlike Xrays,nonionizing radiation does not deposit enough energy into cells to release electrons from atoms or molecules,producing ions. So it tends to be far less harmful than ionizing radiation,such as Xrays.But that does not mean radio waves might not cause harm.In very large doses(量) this radiation will heat the body and cause tissue damage.But it's not yet known what much lower RF levels might do,such as those from cellphone use.Five years ago,the World Health Organization's International Agency for Research on Cancer,or IARC,concluded that cellpho ne use “is possibly carcinogenic (致癌的)”.Its conclusion was based on what little research data was available at that time.But notice that IARC was not certain.It said only that phone use might “possibly” caus e cancer.So scientists at the National Toxicology Program,or NTP,investigated further.[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文。

For the next hour Dad did the dishes, singing songs like“Who Put the Chow in Mrs. Murphy's Chowder”?I suppose it was strange for a father to wear an apron—even one with race cars—but I never thought much of it until that Sunday when we walked home from church together.“Tommy”, he said,“There comes a time in every boy's life when he must take on responsibilities.” “Responsibilities?” I asked. “Yes. It's time you took a greater role in the household. Starting today, I want you to do the dishes on Sunday morning so your mother and I can relax.” “The dishes?” “Anything wrong with taking over the dishes?”I started to say something about a man's job, but I knew immediately that my protests would fall on deaf ears.I didn't taste a bit of breakfast that morning. My father announced to my mother, “Let's go to read the paper, honey.Our oldest son has generously offered to fill the position.”So this was what my life had come to.People often say there is a special chemistry between a father and a son. He came back into the kitchen just as I was about to storm out. In his right hand was the old apron.“I want you to have this, Tommy. It'll keep your clothes from getting wet.” And before I could do anything, he had put that apron on me. “Thanks, Son. Your mother and I appreciate this.”With that he disappeared into the Sunday paper. I looked down at the apron.It had seen better days.I could see my dad reaching for the dishes. Soon I was singing about Mrs. Murphy's Chowder.11.What is the main purpose of the underlined sentences in the first paragraph?A.To show the unwillingness of his father when doing dishes.B.To instruct the main steps of how his father does dishes.C.To emphasize his father's clumsy way of doing dishes.D.To stress the enjoyment and happiness of his father's doing dishes.12.Wha t does the underlined word “responsibilities” in the second paragraph refer to?A.Taking care of the brothers.B.Making progress academically.C.Doing all the dishes.D.Washing the apron with race cars.13.What did the author mean by saying “People often say there is a special chemistry between a father and a son” in the fourth paragraph?A.Mind acts upon mind.B.Like father like son.C.A child is better unborn than untaught.D.Obedience is the first duty of a boy.14.How did the author feel at the end of the passage?A.Proud. B.Enjoyable.C.Surprised. D.Regretful.BAll over the world, libraries have begun the Herculean task of making faithful digital copies of the books, images and recordings that preserve the intellectual effort of humankind. For armchair scholars, the work promises to bring such a wealth of information to the desktop that the present Internet may seem amateurish in retrospect. …Librarians see three clear benefits to going digital. First, it helps them preserve rare and fragile objects without denying access to those who wish to study them. The British Library, for example, holds the only medieval manuscript of Beowulf in London. Only qualified scholars were allowed to see it until Kevin S. Kiernan of the University of Kentucky scanned the manuscript with three different light sources(revealing detail not normally apparent to the naked eye) and put the images up on the Internet for anyone to peruse(细读). Tokyo's National Diet Library is similarly creating highly detailed digital photographs of 1,236 woodblock prints, scrolls and other materials it considers national treasures so that researchers can scrutinize them without handling the originals.A second benefit is convenience. Once books are converted to digital form, patrons can retrieve them in seconds rather than minutes. Several people can simultaneously read the same book or view the same picture. Clerks are spared the chore of reshelving. And libraries could conceivably use the Internet to land their virtual collections to those who are unable to visit in person.The third advantage of electronic copies is that they occupy millimeters of space on a magnetic disk rather than meters on a shelf. Expanding library buildings is increasingly costly. The University of California at Berkeley recently spent $46 million on an underground addition to house 1.5 million books—an average cost of $30 per volume. The price of disk storage, in contrast, has fallen to about $2 per 300page publication and continues to drop.15.The best title for this passage would be “________”.A.Three Benefits of LibrariesB.Libraries Going DigitalC.Spacesaving ElearningD.Security of Electronic Reading16.Which paragraph(s) in the text offer(s) further explanation of the central idea?A.Paragraphs 2, 3 and 4 B.Paragraphs 3 and 4C.Paragraphs 2 and 4 D.Paragraph 417.Which one of the following is mentioned as an advantage of elibraries?A.Old manuscripts can be moved more easily.B.Materials can be examined without being touched.C.Fewer staff will be required in libraries.D.Libraries will be able to move underground.18.What does the word “scrutinize” probably mean?A.Keep for a while. B.Reprint.C.Restore. D.Examine carefully.Ⅲ.完成句子19.With ________________________, many animals are facing the danger of dying out. (destroy)大部分森林毁掉了,很多动物面临着灭绝的危险。

【Ⅰ】阅读理解Whenever the word “hero” comes to me, I immediately think of three words: honourable, hard-working, and happy.When I think more about this word, I picture someone who has accomplished good things for people and tried to do the right thing. Hattie Elizabeth Alexander is one person whom I find to be very heroic.Hattie was born in Baltimore, Maryland on April 5, 1901.During her time at college she earned her Bachelor's Degree in Bacteriology and Physiology.These were just the first steps towards what she was finally going to be remembered for.After college Hattie attended the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine and received her Medical Degree.After her education, she pursued her career, and after much time and hard work, she drastically reduced the number of infants (幼儿) dying of meningitis (脑膜炎).Hattie was very dedicated to her work and helped at as many locations as she could.Spending substantial (大量的) time in the laboratory, Hattie successfully developed a cure against the disease, which decreased the death rate to 20 per cent.At the same time, she was also a teacher working in Columbia University.She was a caring lady interested in other people's lives.When she was teaching at Columbia University, other members would talk to her about students that were failing their classes, and somehow Hattie could always find convincing reasons as to why they should not be driven ter, Hattie became an instructor in Pediatrics at New York City's Babies Hospital.After many honours, she became the first woman president of the American Pediatric Society in 1964.This was her last major achievement, for soon after, Hattie died of cancer on June 24, 1968.Hattie is my hero because her positive attitude and strength helped her accomplish great things for others.She gave them her strength by developing medicines against diseases, which, by doing so, made them stronger.This is what makes Hattie Elizabeth Alexander my hero.1.According to the passage, Hattie Elizabeth Alexander________.A.received her Bachelor's Degree in Johns Hopkins University School of MedicineB.spent all her time in the laboratory developing cures for illnessesC.cared a lot about others' private livesD.always tried her best to help prevent students from dropping out of college2.What does the underlined word “drastically” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A.Slightly.

课时作业Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2019·邯郸模拟C)Have you ever noticed tiny raised areas on the branches of a tree?These may have been insects.These small insects feed on tree sap(汁液).Insects on urban trees are notably more abundant than those on rural trees.As a result,urban trees suffer from heavy infestations(害虫横行),and are often unhealthy or die.To protect and restore urban trees' health,we need to determine the factors that make these tree pests more successful in urban habitats.Living organisms interact closely with their environment.The warmer,more drought-stressed trees harbor more successful pests than cooler,less drought-stressed trees.As cities and natural habitats become hotter and drier,damaging insects will become more abundant on urban trees.Trees within urban forests are valuable economically and for the environmental sustainability(可持续性)of the region.More than half of the world's population lives in cities.Across the globe,people are moving into cities at a faster rate than ever.Rapid growth may turn cities into places with harder conditions.Although cities are primarily made of buildings,roads,parking lots,and vehicles,there are still plants in them.The trees within a city are referred to as the urban forest.Urban forests offer very big benefits to human and environmental health.They improve air and water quality,provide habitat for wildlife,cool down temperatures and beautify our environment.They make cities livable.However,being a city tree is not easy.Heat released by human activities is trapped in cities.As a result,temperatures in urban areas are often warmer than their surrounding rural areas.We call this urban warming or the urban heat island effect.Urban habitats are mostly made of surfaces of asphalt(沥青)and concrete.These surfaces reduce the amount of rainwater that reaches tree roots.As a result,urban forests may suffer,which can negatively affect people and the environment.What can we do to restore urban forests?Regular irrigation when possible mayhelp keep pest populations under control.Planting tree species that are suitable to handle heat and drought stress would also reduce the occurrence of insect pest outbreaks.【语篇解读】本文主要介绍了城市中的森林使城市宜居,但是人类的活动对城市的树木产生了极大的影响,所以我们应该为保护城市树木采取行动。

B(2018·天津D)Give yourself a test.Which way is the wind blowing?How many kinds of wildflowers can be seen from your front door?If your awareness is as sharp as it could be,you'll have no trouble answering these questions.Most of us observed much more as children than we do as adults.A child's day is filled with fascination,newness and wonder.Curiosity gave us all a natural awareness.But distinctions that were sharp to us as children become unclear;we are numb(麻木的)to new stimulation(刺激),new ideas.Relearning the art of seeing the world around us is quite simple,although it takes practice and requires breaking some bad habits.The first step in awakening senses is to stop predicting what we are going to see and feel before it occurs.This blocks awareness.One chilly night when I was hiking in the Rocky Mountains with some students,I mentioned that we were going to cross a mountain stream.The students began complaining about how cold it would be.We reached the stream,and they unwillingly walked ahead.They were almost knee-deep when they realized it was a hot ter they all admitted they'd felt cold water at first.Another block to awareness is the obsession(痴迷)many of us have with naming things.I saw bird watchers who spotted a bird,immediately looked it up in fieldguides,and said,a “ruby-crowned kinglet” and checked it off.They no longer paid attention to the bird and never learned what it was doing.The pressures of “time” and “destination” are further blocks to awareness.I encountered many hikers who were headed to a distant camp-ground with just enough time to get there before dark.It seldom occurred to them to wander a bit,to take a moment to see what's around them.I asked them what they'd seen.“Oh,a few birds,” they said.They seemed bent on their destinations.Nature seems to unfold to people who watch and wait.Next time you take a walk,no matter where it is,take in all the sights,sounds and sensations.Wander in this frame of mind and you will open a new dimension to your life.【解题导语】本文是一篇议论文。
