I remember it like it was yesterday though. We were just eating breakfast when we received a phone call. We received phone calls all the time, so it was nothing new to me. However, this phone call was an important one. I soon heard and saw my mother crying on the couch(沙发)with my father comforting her. My brother, sister, and I didn’t know what had happened, as they had not told us yet. Later, I was told that my grandfather was in the hospital because he had a heart attack. I did not know what to think. I had never heard of a heart attack, but I figured (认为) that it must be serious if he was in the hospital.My grandfather and grandmother lived far away from us and we did not get to see them often. It was a long trip. My mother rushed to the hospital while my father stayed at home with my brother, sister and me.I do not think my young sister was really understanding it all yet. My mother returned a little later with bad news. My grandfather had died before she got there. I was speechless. I had loved my grandfather greatly. He was the one who taught me how to fish and enjoy the outdoors.36. W hy didn’t the morning phone call surprise the autho r?A. Because he/she was only 6 years old.B. Because the phone call was a case as usual.C. Because he/she was just eating breakfast.D. Because it was a normal Saturday morning.37. T he author’s mother began to cry .A. after the father comforted her on the couchB. before she received the important phone callC. when she knew her father was in the hospitalD. as her children didn’t understand what had happened38. T he author’s family seldom got to see the grandparents because .A. they had no spare timeB. the old couple lived too far awayC. the old couple were often in hospitalD. they didn’t have a private car39. W e can know from the passage that .A. both the father and the mother went to the hospitalB. the author cared much about his/her grandfatherC. people with a heart attack should be in hospital at onceD. the mother was in time for having a word with her father40. I t can be inferred from the passage that .A. the author’s family was poor in 2000B. the author’s father wasn’t sad at allC. the author’s sister knew a heat attack was a serious diseaseD. there were three children in the author’s familyBLi Denghai, with his muddy boots and tanned(晒黑的) face, may not look like he is one of China’s famous agricultural pioneers. But the 61-year-old man from Shandong Province has made scientific breakthroughs(突破), which made great contributions to China’s food security(安全). His main work has been in achieving the higher output of corn production.Li, who holds the world record for the highest output of summer corn, once says, “Corn has a life; it sings and dances. If you listen clearly, it can speak to you.” He started his research in 1969 when he was 20 and just dropped out of a high school. He then read an article which pointed that corn output per mu in the USA was six times higher than that in China. He was shocked and set out to work on just a small piece of land round the clock to see if he could increase the output. He often went to the field with a flashlight late at night, if he had been away during the day. By careful nurturing (照料) he managed to double the output.Li Denghai was awarded the “China Award for Significant Contr ibution to the Maize (玉米) Industry” in 2005, and the same year the company named after his own name came into the market on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange. Li, however, is never happier than when he is in the middle of his cornfields. “I can forget my tiredness when talk to my corns,” he says.41. W hen Li Denghai began the study of corn,.A. he just graduated from an ordinary high schoolB. he was shocked that the corn output in China was so lowC. he was only in his thirtiesD. he wasn’t really f ond of his work42. I n 1960s’, if the corn output of 10 mu was 2,000kg in China, the same size field in America could produce .A. 4,000kgB. 8,000kgC. 12,000kgD. 20,000kg43. T he underlined phrase “round the clock” means.A. day and nightB. sooner or laterC. face to faceD. now and then44. F rom Mr. Li’s words in this passage, we can learn that.A. he is not good at communicating with peopleB. he is too tired to go to the corn fieldsC. he talks to his corn when feeling lonelyD. he loves his career deeply45. B y mentioning the company on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange, the author means that Mr. Li.A. has become very richB. has changed into a businessmanC. has succeeded in enlarging his careerD. has been too busy to go on his corn studyCCleaning became an obsession (使人痴迷的事) with Will Palmer after he had a operation of a cornea (角膜) transplant. Before the operation, Mr. Palmer was happy to leave the housework to his wife. However, since he had a cornea transplant, he has become liking to do the dusting and washing up, and developed the good habit he didn’t have before.Mr. Palmer said, “Since having the transplant operation, my vision is almost 20/20. I can now notice every spot of dust and dirt, and can’t help but have a go at cleaning it up. For some reason seeing the grime(尘垢) gets on my nerves and I have to do something about it. It started as a joke that I must have been given the cornea of a woman. There’s a reason why men don’t clean like this and I think it’s because we just don’t see the dirt, but I see it everywhere I go.”Mr. Palmer developed corneal disease Fuchs Dystrophy six years ago. The condition caused the inner surface of the cornea — the thin layer that covers and protects the iris (虹膜) and pupil (瞳孔) that is responsible for two thirds of the eye’s vision — to slowly die. This meant that over time, the sight of Will’s right eye had dropped so much that everything appeared unclear. It was also sensitive to light. Later, Mr. Palmer got the cornea transplant.Scientific studies have suggested that up to a third of organ transplant patients have inherited changes in their personalities, preferences and skills from their donors. Researchers have proposed various theories, including the idea that memories are stored in organ tissue as well as the brain and can therefore be passed on to transplant patients.46. W ill Palmer almost lost his vision as a result of.A. an incidentB. a kind of cancerC. an eye diseaseD. the short-sight47. W hy did Will Palmer think his cornea was from a woman?A. Because he was more anxious than beforeB. Because he became obsessed with cleaningC. Because he developed a habit of fast readingD. Because he could see things more clearly48. S ome memories can be passed on to transplant patients from the donors for .A. they are sensitive to choose the bodyB. they are likely to live in the donors for everC. they are unchangeable once they came into beingD. they are stored well in organ tissue49. W hich of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Will Palmer’s vision recovered well after the operation.B. Will Palmer can see nothing except the dirt around him.C. Will Palmer develops all the same preferences as the donor.D. Will Palmer used to do housework together with his wife.50. T he passage intends to.A. warn us to protect our sightB. give an example of transplantC. introduce a new cure for eye diseaseD. offer us some news on medicineDDolphins are the second brightest creatures after humans in the world — even more clever than chimpanzees(黑猩猩). Experts say it is now time for dolphins to be treated as “non-human persons” after research showed their brains have many features connected with high intelligence. Just like us: A bottlenose dolphin shakes hands. They believe it is cruel to keep such intelligent animals in amusement parks, or to kill them for food or by accident when fishing. Some 300,000 whales and dolphins die in this way every year.A study carried out by Lori Marino, a zoologist at Emory University in Atlanta, scanned (扫描) the brains of dolphin species and compared them to the brains of humans, monkeys and chimpanzees. She said, “Many dolphin brains are l arger than our own and second in whole only to the human brain when corrected for body size.”Dolphins have long been known for their intelligence. However it had been believed that chimpanzees —who can achieve the intelligence levels of three-year-old children —were the brighter of the two.New studies suggest that in fact dolphins —especially species such as the bottlenose — are more intelligent. They have particular personalities, a strong sense of the self and can think about the future. They are al so “cultural” animals, with new types of behavior being picked up by one dolphin from another. In one piece of research, bottlenose dolphins were shown to be able to recognize themselves in a mirror and use it to observe various parts of their bodies.Dolp hins’ famous intelligence has also made its way into fiction. In Douglas Adams’s story, the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, dolphins escape from Earth after humans fail to understand their warnings that the planet is about to be destroyed.51. W hy are do lphins considered as “non-human persons”?A. Because they are highly intelligent creatures.B. Because they can shake hands like humans.C. Because they can amuse humans in parks.D. Because they are more lovely than chimpanzees.52. T he brains of dolphins are smaller than those of.A. whalesB. monkeysC. chimpanzeesD. humans53. A ccording to the research, bottlenose dolphins can .a. think about the futureb. learn from each otherc. recognize themselves in mirrorsd. help humans protect the earth betterA. a, b, dB. a, c, dC. a, b, cD. b, c, d54. W hat can we infer from the passage?A. People haven’t treated dolphins well enough.B. Whales are just as intelligent as dolphins.C. Monkeys have larger brains than chimpanzees.D. Dolphins will develop more human behaviors.55. D ouglas Adams let dolphins appear in the story to .A. draw people’s attentionB. show their intelligenceC. prove humans’ intelligenceD. express their warnings四、书面表达(共两节，满分45分)第一节阅读表达(共5小题；每小题3分，满分15分)Many international students choose large schools. But a growing number of them are attending smaller ones.Douglas Bennett, the president of Earlham College in Indiana, has written several articles aimed at helping students choose a college that best fits their needs. He says one of the important things for the international students to consider is the size of a school. He says Earlham College is small for a reason. “We’re that small because we think we educate much more e ffectively and much more powerfully because we stay small. It stretches everyone more. It draws everyone into more different kinds of activities.”Of course, there are also good arguments for attending a larger school. Many big schools are widely recognized. And in some cases that might lead to more job interviews than a degree from a lesser known college. Larger schools also have more money, which can mean more resources for education and research.In addition to size, Douglas Bennett says there are other important things to consider. For example: Which programs at the school are the strongest? Some schools have stronger programs in the sciences. Others are stronger in the liberal arts. Also, what do the school’s top students go on to do after they graduate? What kinds of activities are offered that might add to the educational experience? Are there sports teams? What about a radio station or newspaper?But Douglas Bennett says . “The most important choice you make is who you choose to be yourself. If you’re prepared to bring your best self to the college, then it matters where you go to college. On the other hand, if you choose not to prepare to work very hard, it doesn’t matter where you go.”56. W hat’s the best title of the passage? (within 8 words)57. W hich sentence in the text is the closest in meaning to the following one?A graduate from a larger school may get a job more easily than one from a school of smaller size.58. Fill in the blank in Paragraph 5 with proper words. (within 6 words)59. Which kind of school will you choose if you are an international student, a large one or a smaller one? Why? (within 20 words)60. Translate the underlined sentence in Paragraph 5 into Chinese.第二节写作(满分30分)请根据下列要点提示写一篇关于一则交通事故的英语短文：时间：上午9点40分地点：邮局附近十字路口经过：一红色卡车闯红灯后与一白色轿车相撞结果：轿车司机受轻伤入院，卡车及司机被带往警察局处理词数：120左右。

Module2 单元能力测评第一部分阅读理解第一节阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A（2018吉林长春外国语学校高二月考）People aren't walking any more-if they can figure out a way to avoid it.I felt superior about this matter until the other day I took my car to mail a small parcel. The journey is a matter of 281 steps. But I used the car. And I wasn't in any hurry, either. I had merely become one more victim of a national sickness: motorosis.It is an illness to which I had thought myself immune（免疫的），for I was bred in the tradition of going to places on my own two legs. At that time, we regarded 25 miles as a good day's walk and the ability to cover such a distance in ten hours as a sign of strength and skill. It did not occur to us that walking was a hardship. And the effect was lasting.When I was 45 years old I raced-and beat-a teenage football player the 168 steps up the Statue of Liberty.Such exercise today is regarded by many middle-aged persons as bad for the heart. But a well-known British physician, Sir Adolphe Abrhams, pointed out recently that hearts and bodies need proper exercise. A person who avoids exercise is more likely to have illnesses than one who exercises regularly. And walking is an ideal form of exercise-the most familiar and natural of all.It was Henry Thoreau who showed mankind the richness of going on foot. The man walking can learn the trees, flowers, insects, birds and animals, the significance of seasons, and the very feel of himself as a living creature in a living world. He cannot learn in a car.The car is a convenient means of transport, but we have made it our way of life. Many people don't dare to approach Nature any more; to them the world they were born to enjoy is all threat. To them security is a steel river thundering on a concrete road. And much of their thinking takes place while waiting for the traffic light to turngreen. I say that the green of forests is the mind's best light. And none but the man on foot can evaluate what is basic and everlasting.【1】What is the national sickness?A. Walking too much.B. Travelling too much.C. Driving cars too much.D. Climbing stairs too much.【2】What was life like when the author was young?A. People usually went around on foot.B. People often walked 25 miles a day.C. People used to climb the Statue of Liberty.D. People considered a ten-hour walk as a hardship.【3】The author mentions Henry Thoreau to prove thatA. middle-aged people like getting back to natureB. walking in nature helps enrich one's mindC. people need regular exercise to keep fitD. going on foot prevents heart disease【4】What's the author's intention of writing this passage?A. To tell people to reflect more on life.B. To recommend people to give up driving.C. To advise people to do outdoor activities.D. To encourage people to return to walking.B（2017北京四中高一期中）Singapore's public transport system is one of the best in the world, so you have no problem finding your way around like a local.

It's very convenient for visitors to travel in Singapore.C（2018河北衡水中学高三一调）The Indian government may use 3D paintings as virtual speed breakers on major highways and roads, in an attempt to check speeding and careless driving, andeventually make its deadly roads a little safer. “We are trying out 3D paintings used as virtual speed breakers to avoid unnecessary requirements of speed breakers,” India's transport minister Nitin Gadkari tweeted.The visual illusions（幻象）are supposed to encourage drivers to slow down automatically. Earlier this month, India had ordered the removal of all speed breakers from highways, which are considered to be a danger to safety for high-speed vehicles.India has the highest number of road accident deaths in the world. According to the World Health Organisation, over 200,000 people are killed by road accidents due to poor application of road safety laws. This is considerably higher than its official figures of 141,526for 2014.The use of visual illusions as speed breakers was first pioneered in the American city of Philadelphia in 2008, as part of a campaign against speeding motorists. The technique has also been tried out in China to create floating 3D crossings.In India, cities such as Ahmedabad and Chennai have already experimented with 3D zebra crossings in the last one year. In Ahmedabad for instance, two artists, mother and daughter have painted 3D crosswalks in the first few months of this year. The artists say their motto is" to increase the attention of drivers", and that the concept has been successfully tested in zones where accidents easily occur on a highway.However, critics argue that once drivers know that these speed breakers are visual illusions, they may ignore them. Others also point out that India's decision does not consider the safety of a large number of walkers. In the end, the new policy may be just one step towards improving road safety.【8】What caused the high number of road accident deaths in India?A. Speeding motorists.B. Floating 3D crossings.C. Free use of visual illusions.D. Bad application of traffic laws.【9】The author explains the experiment of 3D zebra crossings by .A. giving examplesB. analysing causesC. providing figuresD. making comparisons【10】What's the author's attitude towards 3D zebra crossings?A. Subjective.B. Objective.C. Supportive.D. Critical.第二节根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填人空白处的最佳选项。

2019-2020学年高中英语外研版必修4Module 2 模块综合测评
模块综合测评(时间：100分钟，满分：120分)Ⅰ.阅读理解(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)AIt is quite reasonable to blame traffic jams，the cost of gas and the great speed of modern life，but manners on the road are becoming horrible.Everybody knows that the nicest men would become fierce tigers behind the wheel.It is all right to have a tiger in a cage，but to have one in the driver's seat is another matter altogether.Road politeness is not only good manners，but good sense too.It takes the most coolheaded drivers great patience to give up the desire to beat back when forced to face rude driving.On the other hand，a little politeness goes a long way towards reducing the possibility of quarrelling and fighting.A friendly nod or a wave of thanks in answer to an act of politeness helps to create an atmosphere of good will and calm so necessary in modern traffic conditions.But such behaviours of politeness are by no means enough.Many drivers nowadays don't even seem able to recognize politeness when they see it.However，misplaced politeness can also be dangerous.Typical example is the driver who waves a child crossing the street at a wrong place into the path of oncoming cars that may be not able to stop in time.The same goes for encouraging old ladies to cross the road wherever and whenever they want to.It always amazes me that the highways are not covered with the dead bodies of these grannies.An experienced driver，whose manners are faultless，told me it would help ifdrivers learnt to correctly join in traffic stream without causing total blockages that give rise to unpleasant feelings.Unfortunately，modern drivers can't even learn to drive，let alone master the roadmanship.Years ago，experts warned us that the fast increase of the car ownership would demand more giveandtake from all road users.It is high time for all of us to take this message to heart.1．According to the passage，troubles on the road are often caused by ________.A．road conditionsB．the speed of modern lifeC．the behaviour of the driversD．the large number of cars【解析】 细节理解题。

To the Egyptians, green was a color that represented the hope and joy of spring, while for Muslims, it means heaven. Red is a symbol of good luck in many cultures. In China, children are given money in a red envelope to bring good fortune in the New Year. For many nations, blue is a symbol of protection and religious beliefs. Greek people often wear a blue necklace hoping to protect themselves against evils（灾祸）.People’s choice of colors is also influenced by their bodies’ reactions （反应）toward them. Green is said to be the most restful color. It has the ability to reduce pain and relax people both mentally and physically. People who work in green environment have been found to have fewer stomach aches.Red can cause a person’s blood pressure to rise and increase people’s appetites（食欲）. Many decorators will include different shades of red in the restaurant. Similarly, many commercial websites will have a red “Buy Now”button because red is a color that easily catches a person’s eye.Blue is another calming color. Unlike red, blue can cause people to lose appetite. So if you want to eat less, some suggest that eating from blue plates can help.The next time you are deciding on what to wear or what color to decorate your room, think about the color carefully.41. Muslims regard green as a symbol of heaven mainly because of their .A. cultural valuesB. commercial purposesC. personal experienceD. physical reactions to the color42. Why will many commercial websites have a red “Buy Now” button?A. To relax people physically.B. To increase people’s appetites.C. To encourage people to make a purchase.D. To cause a person’s blood pressure to rise.43. What color might help lose weight according to the text?A. RedB. Green.C. Blue.D. Purple.44. Which of the following would be the most proper title for the text?A. Colors and Human BeingsB. The Cultural Meaning of ColorC. Colors and Personal ExperiencesD. The Meaning and Function of ColorBWhen Frida Kahlo’s paintings were on show in London, a poet described her paintings as “ a ribbon （丝带）around a bomb”. Such comments seem to suggest Kahlo had a big influence on the art world of her time. Sadly, she is actually a much bigger name today than she was during her time.Born in 1907 in a village near Mexico City , Kahlo suffered from polio（小儿麻痹症）at the age of seven. Her spine （脊柱）become bent as she grew older. Then, in 1925, her back was broken in several places in a school-bus accident. Throughout the rest of her life, the artist had many operations, but noting was able to cure the terrible pain in her back. However, the accident had an unexpected side effect. While lying in her bed recovering, Kahlo taught herself to paint.In 1929, she got married to Diego Rivera, another famous Mexican artist. Rivera’s strong influences on Kahlo’s style can be seen in her early works, but her later works from the 1940s, known today as her best works, show less influence from her husband.Unfortunately, her works did not attract much attention in the 1930s and1940s, even in her home country. Her first one-woman show in Mexico was not held until 1953.For more than a decade after her death in 1954, Kahlo’s works remained largely unnoticed by the world, but in the 1970s her works began to gain internationalfame at last.45. What does the phrase “a much bigger name” in paragraph 1 most nearly mean?A. a far better artistB. a for more gifted artistC. a much stronger personD. a much more famous person46. The terrible pain Kahlo suffered was caused by .A. polioB. her bent spineC. back injuriesD. the operations she had47. Kahlo’s style had become increasingly independent since the .A.1930sB. 1940sC. 1950sD. 1970s48. What is author’s attitude toward Kahlo?A. DevotionB. SympathyC. WorryD. EncouragementCTwo friends have an argument that breaks up their friendship forever, even though neither one can remember how the whole thing got started. Such sad events happen over and over in high schools across the country. In fact, according to an official report on youth violence, "In our country today, the greatest threat to the lives of children and adolescents is not disease or starvation or abandonment, but the terrible reality of violence". Given that this is the ease, why aren't students taught to manage conflict the way they are taught to solve math problems, drive ears, or stay physically fit?First of all, students need to realize that conflict is unavoidable. A report on violence among middle school and high school students indicates that most violent incidents between students begin with a relatively minor insult (侮辱). For example, a fight could start over the fact that one student eats a peanut butter sandwich each lunchtime. Laughter over the sandwich can lead to insults, which in turn can lead to violence. The problem isn't in the sandwich, but in the way students deal with the conflict.Once students recognize that conflict is unavoidable, they can practice the golden rule of conflict resolution (解决) : stay calm. Once the student feels calmer, he or she should choose words that will calm the other person down as well Rude words, name-calling, and accusations only add fuel to the emotional fire. On the other hand, soft words spoken at a normal sound level can put out the fire before it explodes out of control.After both sides have calmed down, they can use another key strategy (策略) for conflict resolution : listening. Listening allows the two sides to understand each other. One person should describe his or her side, and the other person should listen without interrupting. Afterward, the listener can ask non-threatening questions to clarify the speaker's position. Then the two people should change roles.Finally, students need to consider what they are hearing. Tiffs doesn't mean trying to figure out what's wrong with the other person. It means understanding what the real issue is and what both sides are trying to accomplish. For example, a shouting match over a peanut butter sandwich might happen because one person thinks the other person is unwilling to try new things. Students need to ask themselves questions such as these: How did this start? What do I really want? What am I afraid of? As the issue becomes clearer, the conflict often simply becomes smaller. Even if it doesn't, careful thought helps both sides figure out a mutual solution.There will always be conflict in schools, but that doesn't mean there needs to be violence. After students in Atlanta started a conflict resolution program, according to Educators for Social Responsibility, "64 percent of the teachers reported less physical violence in the classroom; 75 percent of the teachers reported an increase in student co-operation; and 92 percent of the students felt better about themselves'. Learning to resolve conflicts can help students deal with friends, teachers, parents, bosses, and coworkers. In that way, conflict resolution is a basic life skill that should be taught in schools across the country.49. This article is mainly aboutA. the lives of school childrenB. the cause of arguments in schoolsC.how to analyze youth violenceD.how to deal with school conflicts50. From Paragraph 2 we can learn thatA. violence is more likely to occur at lunchtimeB. a small conflict can lead to violenceC. students tend to lose their temper easilyD. the eating habit of a student is often the cause of a fight51. Why do students need to ask themselves the questions stated in Paragraph 5?A. To find out who is to blame.B. To get ready to try new things.C. To make clear what the real issue is.D. To figure out how to stop the shouting match.52. After the conflict resolution program was started in Atlanta, it was found thatA. there was a decrease in classroom violenceB. there was less student cooperation in the classroomC. more teachers felt better about themselves in schoolsD. the teacher-student relationship greatly improved53. The writer's purpose for writing this article is toA. complain about problems in school educationB. teach students different strategies for school lifeC. advocate teaching conflict management in schoolsD. inform teachers of the latest studies on school violenceAfter read your advertisement, I want to offer myself for theposition.

I stared down at my sweat-covered, shaking hands.I looked up again at the audience, realizing that these were real people. They were not just my mum and dad, who would say, "Good job!" even if I missed up the entire piece.What if I had the wrong music? What if I played the wrong notes?As it turned out, I was never able to answer these questions because the spotlight was waiting for me. I grasped my hands tightly together, drying off the sweat.Slowly I walked to the mud-brown piano in the centre of the room. It contained 88 demanding keys, which were waiting impatiently to be played. I swallowed the golfball-sized lump in my throat and sat down. Slowly, I opened the music. Next, I rested my still shaking hands on the ivory keys.As my fingers played across the keys, I was becoming more unsure of my preparation for this moment. But the memory of my year of training came flooding back. I knew that I had practiced this piece so many times that I could play it backwards if requested. Although at one point I accidentally played two keys instead of the intended one, I continued to move my fingers automatically.My eyes burned holes into the page in front of me. There was no way that I was going to lose my concentration. To keep this promise to myself, I leaned forward and focused carefully on the music.When I came to the end of the page, a warning went off inside my head. Don't make a mistake when you turn the page!Needless to say, I obeyed myself with all my heart and mind, and, proud of my "page-turning" feat, I finished the rest of the piece without making a single mistake.After the final note died away, a celebration went into action inside my head. I had finished. I had mastered the impossible.31. Before the writer gave her first performance,A. she could see nothing but her own shaking handsB. her parents encouraged her, saying, "Good job!"C. she missed up the whole pieceD. her heart beat very fast32. The underlined word "demanding" in the sixth paragraph meansA. proper-numberedB. necessary for a pianoC. needing great attention or effortsD. being familiar to a person33. The sentence "I swallowed the golf ball-sized lump" in the sixth paragraphshows___________.A. the writer was too nervous to playB. the writer managed to calm downC. the writer had put something in her mouthD. there was something wrong with her throat34.

Which one is the best title for this story?A. My First SuccessB. My First Piano ShowC. My First DateD. My First Music LessonBLooking for someplace to fall in love? Then look no further than Florence—if you want to fall in love with art, that is! Europe’s art capital has more masterpieces per square kilometer than any other place. World-renowned artists Michelangelo and Leonardo da Vinci lived and worked in Florence.Walk the streets and admire the centuries old architectural wonders. Gaze at some of the world’s best paintings. Window-shop at the city’s fancy sho ps. The hardest thing will be deciding what to do first!The art of Florence lies not just outside its buildings but inside them, too. Visit the Academia museum to see Michelangelo’s statue of David. A crowd always surrounds the beautiful, 4-meter-tall statue.Michelangelo carved it when he was just 26. Unlike most sculptors, he did not make a model of his statue first. He did not draw on the marble to show where to carve, either. He worked freehand. He believe that he was freeing the figure that God had put into the marble.Continue your museum tour with the Uffizi gallery. It has the greatest collection of Italian painting anywhere. The paintings are displayed from oldest to newest. You can see how art changed through the centuries. Paintings in Middle Ages looked flat. Once the Renaissance began, paintings began to look 3-D and more lifelike.Had enough art? Take some time to earn about the beginnings of modern science in the Science Museum. Here you'll get an over view of technical innovations from the year 1000 to 1900. You can see early clocks, maps, telescopes and scientific experiments.Next, move into modern times and take a look in some of the city's shops. Florence is a great palace to shop and has been since Renaissance times. Visit the market in the streets around San Lorenzo. You can find some great deals--but bargain hard.36. The passage is mainly about_____________.A. the right place that you can fall in loveB. some of the world's famous arts in FlorenceC. the interesting places to go in ItalyD. the art capital in Europe37. We can infer from the passage that___________.A. many famous artists have lived and worked in FlorenceB. artists used to make models to carve statues before MichelangeloC. the city is home to Michelangelo's famous statue of DavidD. you cannot only see the oldest paintings but also the newest in this city38. The underlined word "world-renowned" in Paragraph 1 means __________.A. well-known all over the worldB. strange to people all over the worldC. new discovered in the worldD. popular all over the world39. If you want to discover the beginning of science, you should go to_______________.A. the Accademia museumB. the Uffize GalleryC. Science MuseumD. San Lorenzo40. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. Florence is a great place to shop in modern times.B. Art around almost every corner makes Florence a special place~C. Paintings began to look more lifelike since Renaissance began.D. The beginning of modern science was around year 1000.CMore perhaps than any other European nation, the Swiss are accustomed to looking after foreign travelers. As early as the 18th century, wealthy French, Germans and Italians were treating the country as a amusement center while, in the 19th century, it became the major holiday playground for the British nobles. Today, it attracts visitors from all over the world.The Swiss are clear about the importance of tourism to their economy, which contributes about eight percent of Gross National Product, and they help the industry greatly. Managers of hotels the world overgo to Switzerland to learn how to do the job, and a generally high standard can be expected from the great majority of the country's hotels, most of which are small and pride themselves on a personalized service. Public transport is the best in Europe. Both the Swiss Federal railways and the private railways are fully electrified, and the total network is made up of about 5,000 kilometers of track.Under the Fly Baggage system passengers can check luggage in at 116 railway stations and have it automatically carried to their flight. The national highway system is equally well planned, and the mountain roads offer views of some of the country's most breathtaking scenery. Also serving the mountains is an effective system of railways and cable ways, while more than 160 passenger cars cross the lakes and rivers to and fro. Hiking in the mountains is equally popular with Swiss nationals and foreign visitors. For those who want to view the country from a height without having to climb the mountain themselves, it is always possible to take in the view from a balloon.41. Which of the following statements is true?A. Most of the hotels in Switzerland are big in size.B. The hotels in Switzerland offer exactly the same service.C. Most of the hotels in Switzerland offer first class service.D. The hotels in Switzerland are accustomed to learn from the world.42. The Fly Rail Baggage system is service to carry your luggage between the railway station andA. the airportB. the hotelC. the motorway stationD. the cable ways44. The best title for this passage is in Switzerland, the best place is_____________.A. Scenery in SwitzerlandB. Life in SwitzerlandC. Tourism in SwitzerlandD. Transportation in Switzerland45. According to the passage, Switzerland is now often visited by ____________A. wealthy FrenchB. rich Germans and ItaliansC. noble BritishD. People from various countriesDMedical JournalsMedical journals are publications that report medical information tophysicians and other health professionals.In the past, these journals were available only in print. With the development of electronic publishing, many medical journals now have Web sites on the Internet, and some journals publish only online. A few medical journals, like the Journal of the American Medical Association, are considered general medical journals because they cover many fields of medicine. Most medical journals are specialty journals that focus on a particular area of medicine.Medical journals publish many types of articles. Research articles report the results of research studies on a range of topics varying from the basic mechanisms of diseases to clinical trials that compare outcomes of different treatments. Review articles summarize and analyze the information available on a specific topic based on a careful search of the medical literature.Because the results of individual research studies can be affected by many factors, combining results from different studies on the same topic can be helpful in reaching conclusions about the scientific evidence for preventing, diagnosing or treating a particular disease. Case conferences and case reports may be published in medical journals to educate physicians about particular illnesses and how to treat at them. Editorials in medical journals are short essays that express the views of the authors, often regarding a research or review article published in the same issue.Editorials provide perspective on how the current article fits with other information on the same topic. Letters to the editor provide a way for readers of the medical journal to express comments, questions or criticisms about articles published in that journal.46. The main readers of medical journals are__________.A. the general publicB. healthy professionalsC. medical criticsD. news reporters47. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. Many medical journals also publish online.B. A few medical journals are general medical journals.C. Most medical journals publish only online.D. Most medical journals are specialty journals.48.

高中英语外研版必修四精品单元测试卷Module 2 Traffic Jam
高中英语外研版必修四精品单元测试卷Module 2 Traffic Jam 学校：___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解1. Summer has finally arrived, which means kids are bound for the outdoors. It can be exciting for kids and parents to have a great opportunity to go swimming, picnicking or on adventures. This time of year is also a dangerous time of year as almost half of all injury-related deaths in children occur between May and August. Whether it be in the pool, on bike, out in the sun or in the backyard is always important. Here are some tips to keep the family safe over the summer.Water SafetyAt this time of year, drowning deaths among children skyrocket(飞涨) compared to the rest of the year. Never leave your child alone in the water, even in shallow water. A child can drown in as little as one inch of water. Enroll your children in swimming lessons. Some swim schools offer class for children as young as 6 months.Sun SafetyWe are fortunate enough to live in the Sunshine State, where sun shines year-round. But with all the time you and the kids will be spending outdoors this summer, it’s important to protect yourself. Make sure to use a widely-used sunscreen(防晒霜) that blocks both UVA and UVB sunlight. Cotton clothing has an estimated SPF of only 6, so even if your kids are going out wearing T-shirts and shorts, make sure they are covered up.Bike SafetyNothing says summer like a nice neighborhood bike ride. But bikes are not toys and can certainly cause injury. Don’t forget to always wear a helmet. Head injuries are reduced by 85 Percent when riders wear a helmet and other safety equipment like knee and wrist pads. It’s estimated that 75 percent of bicycle-related deaths could have been prevented with bicycle helmets. When riding on the street, make sure kids understand all riding hand signals, ride with the traffic flow and stay as far right as possible.1.Summer is called a dangerous time because children ____________.A.are easily injuredB.enjoy staying in the sunC.want to learn swimmingD.refuse to accept advice2.What can be learned from the second paragraph?A.Swimming is a dangerous activity.B.Shallow water is harmless to children.C.Some swim schools offer class for free.D.Deaths from drowning increase suddenly in summer.3.In order to avoid getting sunburned, what should you do?A.Avoid riding bikes.e a sunscreen.C.Buy expensive clothes.D.Wear T-shirts and shorts.2. The Song Dynasty (960—1279) is often thought of as the Chinese Renaissance (文艺复兴). For about three and a quarter centuries, under its rule, China enjoyed a period of economic growth with great and amazing artistic achievements.One of the most important factors in the Song Renaissance was the printing press(印刷机) which made for a rebirth of classical Confucian(儒学的) learning. By the 10th century, printers had produced a large number of copies of the classical Confucian texts. With this increase in the production of books, education spread and became widely available.Printing also had its greatest influence on the Chinese political system. In the Song Dynasty, government examinations became the most important way to gain political power in China. For almost 1,000 years, China was governed by men who had done very well in examinations. Thousands of students studied for the exams, and thousands of inexpensive books were required. Without printing, such a system would not have been possible.The Song period was also the golden age of Chinese painting. Emperor Huizong was a talented painter who encouraged the arts. A royal painting school was created and many fine artists were supported. The period is best known for nature subjects and landscape paintings. Guo Xi used perspective (透视法) in his paintings and The Quiet Valley is one of his best-known works. One of the greatest landscape painters of the period was Fan Kuan. His famous work, Travelling among Mountains and Streams, is one of the most famous Chinese paintings. Completed around the year 1000, it was inspired by the power of nature and the relative insignificance of humans.1.When was the Chinese Renaissance?A.Immediately after the Renaissance in Europe.B.During the Song Dynasty.C.At the time of Confucius.D.In the year 1000.2.What contributed to spreading the ideas of Confucius?A.The spread of education to all people.B.People's new interest in classical texts.C.The development of painting.D.The printing press and a wide availability of books.3.How did people become politicians at the time?A.By studying Confucian ideas.B.By reading many printed books.C.By learning painting.D.By taking government examinations.4.Which of the following is the painter of Travelling among Mountains and Streams according to the passage?A.Guo Xi.B.Emperor Huizong.C.Fan Kuan.D.Confucius.3. I realized something this morning. I have been writing for 34 years. It all started when I was just 18 years old. As a boy I had read literally(确实) hundreds of books. I had a thirst for knowledge that seemingly could never fade. Then suddenly I found I had something I wanted to share. I tried to ignore it,but as any writer will tell you once the ideas awaken inside of you they won't leave you alone until you write them down. I didn't have a computer, a word processor, or even a typewriter. Still, I grabbed a pen and lined notebook paper and wrote everything that was burning inside of me.When I was done I didn't know how to share it. There was no Internet back then, no smartphones, or no social media. I sought out the editor (编辑) of my local county newspaper and asked him to print what I had written. He was a good man full of both wisdom and kindness. He not only printed my first story but agreed to publish (刊登) anything else I was willing to write. I continued to write new articles each week and shared them first with other local papers and later online as well. Years later at the urging of my readers I even self-published two collections of my stories.Through my writing I slowly became better than I was. In my writings I encountered my best self. In my writings I discovered the goodness and light that lie in us all. In my writings I found great love and joy and encouraged others to choose love and joy as well. I also found that we all are writers whether we put pen to paper or not. With every choice we make, with every thought we hold, and with everything we do we are writing our own life story.Lance Wubbels once wrote, "I hope you realize your life is truly your life. It belongs to you. It is your story to write with love. Day by day, line by line, write it well."1.As a boy, when the author found he had something he wanted to share, _________.A.he wrote it downB.he managed to ignore itC.he shared it on social mediaD.he told it to a writer2.How did the author begin his writing career?A.He was hired as a newspaper editor.B.He put his stories online by himself.C.He self-published two books.D.He was helped by a local newspaper editor.3.What does the author think of writing?A.Writing takes practice and efforts.B.Writing can benefit oneself and others.C.Writing helps people tell right from wrong.D.Only with a pen can one write his life story.4.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A.A way to be a writerB.A way to share ideasC.Living is writingD.Writing is the source of love4. Traffic jams and cities, it seems, go hand in hand. Everyone complains about being stuck in traffic, but, like the weather, no one seems to do anything about it. In particular, traffic engineers, transportation planners, and public officials responsible for transportation systems in large cities are frequently criticized for failing to solve the traffic jam.But is the traffic jam a sign of failure? Long queues at restaurants or theater box offices are seen as signs of success. Should transportation systems be viewed any differently? I think we should recognize that the traffic jam is an unpreventable by-product(副产品) of successful cities, and view the "traffic problem" in a different light.Cities exist because they improve social communication and economic trade. The traffic jam occurs where there are lots of people but limited space. Culturally and economically successful cities have theworst traffic problems, while decaying cities don't have much traffic. New York and Los Angeles are America's most crowded cities. But if you want access to major brokerage houses(经纪行), you will find them easier to reach in crowded New York than in any other large cities. And if your company needs access to post-production film editors or satellite-guidance engineers, you will reach them more quickly through the crowded freeways of LA than through less crowded roads elsewhere.Despite the traffic jam, a larger amount of social communication and economic trade can be made better in large, crowded cities than elsewhere. Seen in this light, the traffic jam is an unfortunate result of prosperity(繁荣), not a cause of the economic fall and urban decay. So while we can consider the traffic jam as increasing cost in the areas of big cities, the cost of inaccessibility in uncrowded places is almost certainly greater.There is no doubt that the traffic jam brings the terrible economic and environmental damage in places like Bangkok, Jakarta, and Lagos. But mobility(流动性) is far higher and traffic jam levels are far lower here in the US, even in our most crowded cities. That's why, for now, we don't see people and capital streaming out of San Francisco and Chicago, heading for cities like El Centro and McAllen.1. We can conclude from the first paragraph that _____.A. the traffic jam and weather are the two factors preventing the development of big citiesB. the traffic jam seems to be very difficult to deal withC. if traffic engineers try their best, the traffic jam can be solvedD. public officials are always criticized for misusing their power2. By saying "decaying" (in Para. 3), the author probably means _____.A. less powerful and influentialB. developingC. rich and successfulD. small-sized3. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. The traffic jam has caused terrible effects in cities such as Bangkok and Lagos.B. The traffic jam in San Francisco has resulted in the capital flowing out.C. The traffic jam level in Jakarta is lower than that in the US.D. McAllen is as crowded and successful as San Francisco.4. What's the author's opinion on the traffic jam?A. In cities, the traffic jam is avoidable.B. The traffic jam is both a sign of failure and a sign of success.C. The traffic jam is the result of successful cities.D. The traffic jam can promote social communication and economic trade.二、七选五5.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。

主要介绍了Denver交通系统的整体情况。
21．According to the passage, the underlined word “pass” in Paragraph 1 may refer to ________.A．the ticket for entering or leaving the bus stationB．the book for 10 ticket coupon or for free chargeC．a long time ticket for admitting a passenger to a busD．the book containing all the service information答案：C词义猜测题。
由第一段“All monthly passes...”可知实际上指的是月票，故pass 在文中应当是指车票，故选C项。
22．The biggest advantage of the RTD bus service may lie in the fact that ________.A．the driver may actively help you set your bike on the trainB．passengers can ask for the driver to get their bikes off the busC．the driver can make room for the bikes any timeD．the passenger can carry his bike to the train during some time答案：D细节理解题。
由第一段中的“You can bring a bicycle on the light rail trains during off peak hours...”可知，在非高峰时间，乘客可以将自行车带到轻轨火车上去，故选D项。
根据上文，司机是不允许帮助乘客搬动或卸下自行车的，故A、B两项不对；在高峰时间车上不得装载自行车，故C项不对。
23．From the passage，we can infer that ________.A．many people turn to riding bikes during rush hoursB．many people prefer sitting on wheelchairs on busesC．it takes 15 minutes to go to Santa Fe & Mineral from 30th & Downing streetsD．the fare for the trip from Downing streets to Hampden Ave is $ 1.25答案：A推理判断题。
由文章的内容可知，在高峰时间一般是不允许将自行车带到汽车或火车上的，那么更多的人就会改骑自行车，故选A项。
轮椅并不是任何人都可以坐的，故B项错误，由第二段的内容可知，从30th & Downing streets到Santa Fe & Mineral的火车每15分钟一班，并不是坐车15分钟就到了，故C项错误；D项不能从原文中得到答案。
24．The best title for this passage may be ________.A．Denver Travel Guide B．RTD Works BestC．Denver Light Rail D．RTD Special Service答案：A主旨大意题。
纵观全文，文章介绍了Denver交通系统的运作、服务及票价情况，是一篇旅行指南。
故选A项。
BRush hour traffic is a problem in many big cities around the world. Commuters(道勤者)rush to and from their jobs in cars, buses, subways, trains, and even on bicycles. Large cities in the United States have two rush hours—one in the morning and one in the evening. But in cities in other parts of the world, there are four rush hours. In Athens and Rome, for example, many workers go home for lunch and a nap. After this midday break, they rush back to their jobs and work for a few more hours.In Tokyo, there's a big rush hour underground. Most of the people in Tokyo take the subways. The trains are very crowded. Subway employees called packers wear white gloves and help pack the commuters into the trains when the doors close. They make sure that all purses, briefcases,clothes, and hands are inside the trains.In Seoul, many commuters prefer to take taxis to get to work. To hail_a_cab,_many people stand at crossroads and raise two fingers. This means they'll pay the cab driver double the usual fare. Some people even raise three fingers! They'll pay THREE times the normal rate.Streets in Rome are very crowded with automobiles and mopeds(摩托自行车)during rush hours. The city can't make its streets wider, and it can't build new highways, because it doesn't want to disturb many historic sites in the city, such as the Forum and the Colosseum. It took the city fifteen years to construct a new subway system. Construction had to stop every time workers found old artifacts and discovered places of interest to archaeologists(考古学家)．In many big cities, there are special lanes on highways for carpools. These are groups of three or more people who drive to and from work together. They share the costs of gas and parking and take turns driving into the city.Getting to work and getting home can be difficult in many places around the world.
