课时作业(八)Using Language Ⅰ.单词拼写1.The drug is effective but has a ________(倾向)to cause headaches.2.There was________(普遍的)support for the war.3.Many experts________(提倡)rewarding your child for good behaviour.4.The________(平均的)cost of making a movie has risen by 15%.5.On________of(代表……一方)everyone here,may I wish you a very happy retirement.6.Prisoners can only leave their cells under certain________(情况).7.He________(使振作)himself with a glass of iced tea.8.The fire was caused by an________(与电有关的)fault.9.Einstein was awarded the Nobel Prize for his________(贡献)to Quantum Theory.10.We've had a few________(分歧),but we're still good friends.Ⅱ.阅读理解AAlthough our reliance on fossil fuels(化石燃料) has created global warming, we now have the opportunity to begin a_transformation towards a clean energy economy —one that is supported by highly efficient industries, fueled by clean, renewable resources, like wind, solar and geothermal (地热的) energy, and based on modern smart transportation planning.A clean energy economy is a win for American jobs. Studies by leading research institutions have shown that if we invest in clean energy over fossil fuels, we will create more American jobs. A report released by the United Steelworkers and the Sierra Club, for example, found that thanks to the growth of wind energy, about 5,200 manufacturing jobs could be created in Iowa alone over the next decade. Additional studies have found that thousands more jobs could be created in other states that have suffered industry job losses and that welcome the opportunity to train workers for the new energy economy.But, in order to fully transit to a clean energy economy,we need our electedofficials to take action. Without policies from the government, the private field may continue to invest in old-fashioned, polluting technologies. More than 70 coal plants without technology to capture carbon pollution are now being considered. If these projects go ahead, this will be billions of dollars invested in technology that is outdated and not “clean coal”. We need effective policies to push growing clean energy industries forward.Each of us can play a role in bringing about this much-needed transition. Tell your business and elected leaders that the next generation deserves to grow up in a world powered by clean energy. Tell your mayor that you want city planning that encourages more efficient new buildings and sidewalks and bike paths that make it easy to walk or ride a bike. Tell your state and national officials to invest in energy grids (电力网) that can deliver renewable energy to everyone. Tell your company that instead of old-style coal power you want to buy solar, wind, or geothermal energy. Tell your elected officials that you want national policies that encourage investors to make long-term commitments to clean energy.1.The underlined part “a transformation” in Paragraph 1 refers to “________”.A.a change from fossil fuels to clean energyB.a choice for fossil fuelsC.a chance of developing modern industriesD.a choice for global warming2.According to Paragraph 2, a clean energy economy________.A.has helped develop more wind energyB.is quite beneficial to ordinary peopleC.has developed fast in most states of the USD.is valued by the governments around the world3.Which of the following is a major concern to the government according to the passage?A.Investments in clean energy.B.Coal plants without advanced technology.C.Technology for capturing carbon pollution.D.Policies on the good use of clean energy.4.What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?A.Everyone can contribute to the clean energy.B.Citizens have the right to talk to the mayor.C.Elected leaders should be responsible for the next generation.D.More investments should be put into energy grids.5.If this passage is taken from a newspaper, in which part would you most probably find it?A.Culture.B.Society.C.Economy. D.Nature.B(2013·佛山高二检测)Beijing had its biggest snowfall since 1951.Britain is suffering through its longest cold snap(寒潮)since 1981.And freezing weather is hitting the Deep South,including Florida's orange groves and beaches.Whatever happened to global warming?Such weather doesn't seem to fit with warnings from scientists that the Earth is warming because of greenhouse gases.But experts say the cold snap doesn't contradict global warming at all—it's just a temporary phenomenon in the long-term heating trend.“It's part of natural variability,”said Gerald Meehl,a senior scientist.With global warming,he said,“we'll still have record cold temperatures.We'll just have fewer of them.”Scientists say man-made climate change does have the potential to cause more frequent and more severe weather extremes.But experts did not connect the current cold snap to climate change.So what is going on?“We basically have seen just a big outbreak of Arctic air over populated areas of the Northern Hemisphere”,Arndt said.In the atmosphere,large rivers of air travel roughly west to east around the globe between the Arctic and the tropics.This air flow acts like a fence to keep Arctic air restricted.But recently,this air flow has become bent into a zigzag(之字形)pattern,wandering north and south.If you live in a place where it brings air up from the south,you get warm weather.In fact,record highs were reported this week in Washingtonstate and Alaska.But in the eastern United States,like some other unlucky parts of the globe,Arctic air is coming from the north.And that's how you get a temperature of 3 degrees in Beijing,a reading of minus-42 in mainland Norway,and 18 inches of snow in parts of Britain.The zigzag pattern arises naturally from time to time,but it is not clear why it's so strong right now.6.What is the BEST title of the text?A.Freezing weather is hitting the Deep SouthB.We'll still have record cold temperaturesC.The air flow has become a zigzag patternD.Cold snap doesn't contradict global warming7.With global warming,we will________.A.also meet with severe cold snapB.have more hot temperatures foreverC.never experience cold temperaturesD.have more cold temperatures8.According to experts,the current cold snap________.A.suggests that the climate has changed greatlyB.is not related to the climate changeC.shows that the climate will turn coldD.is affected by global warming9.Beijing had its biggest snowfall since 1951 because of ________.A.a fence from the ArcticB.a cooling trend in climateC.a big outbreak of Arctic airD.its large population10.We can conclude that________.A.not all the parts of the Northern Hemisphere are cold in face of the cold snap B.the zigzag pattern arises naturally accidentallyC.Beijing will get cold weather next yearD.Washington state and Alaska will not face cold weather next yearⅢ.翻译句子1.我想火车是正午开,你最好坐出租车去,否则可能会误车的。

rainy seasons,which is expected to provide guidance for experts making weather predictions.Every year,moist(潮湿的)air masses,known as monsoons,produce large amounts of rainfall in India,East Asia,Northern Australia and East Africa.All this wet air is pulled in by a high pressure area over the Indian Ocean and a low pressure area to the south.According to Edward Cook,a weather expert at Columbia University in New York,the complex nature of the climate systems across Asia makes monsoons hard to predict.In addition,climate records for the area are too recent and not detailed enough to be of much use.Therefore,he and other researchers spent more than 15 yearstraveling across Asia,looking for trees old enough to provide long-term records.They measured the rings inside thousands of ancient trees in more than 300 places.Rainfall has a direct link to the growth and Width of rings on some kinds of trees.The researchers put together a Monsoon Asia Drought Atlas(地图集)documenting monsoons over seven centuries,beginning in the 1,300s.“If the monsoon fails or is a very weak one,the trees affected by monsoons at that location might have a very narrow ring,”said Professor Cook.“But if the monsoon is very strong,the trees affected by that monsoon might have a wide ring for that year.”With all the information,researchers say they can begin to improve computer climate models for predicting the behavior of monsoons.“There has been widespread starvation and loss of human life in the past during large droughts while a particularly heavy monsoon can cause serious flooding,”said Eugene Wahl,a scientist with America's National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.“So,the regional moisture models,dryness and wetness over such along period of time in great detail mean a kind of victory for climate science.”1.What's the passage mainly about?A.The effects of Asian monsoons.B.The necessity of weather forecast.C.The achievements of Edward Cook.D.A breakthrough in monsoon predictions.2.It is difficult for experts to predict Asian monsoons because ________.A.it is hard to keep long-term climate recordsB.they are formed under complex climate systemsC.they influence many nationsD.there is heavy rainfall in Asia3.What can be inferred from the passage?A.Long and detailed climate records can offer useful information for monsoon research.B.The Monsoon Asia Drought Atlas has a monsoon record for about 1,300years.C.The trees affected by monsoons grow fast if the monsoon is weak.D.The rainfall might be low although the monsoon is strong in monsoon-affected areas.4.According to Professor Cook,the rings of the trees ________.A.determine the regional climateB.have a great influence on the regional climateC.offer people information about the regional rainfallD.reflect all kinds of regional climate information5.What do we know about the research according to Eugene Wahl?A.It is a great achievement in climate science.B.It should include information about human life in the past.C.It has analyzed moisture models worldwide.D.It will help people prevent droughts and floods.BGreenwich,in the south of the Thames,the longest river in England,has a long history.Throughout time different buildings have been constructed on the same site.The Palace of Placentia,an English Royal Palace built in 1447,no longer exists apart from a few remains under the present buildings.The impressive buildings on the south bank of the Thames at Greenwich were designed by the English architect Sir Christopher Wren.The buildings were finally completed in 1745,although some parts started to be used as early as in 1705.They're now part of a university—having served as a naval(海军的)hospital and a naval college and the setting for several movies.But the buildings stand on a site which has a much longer history.For nearly two hundred years,from around 1450 to 1650,Greenwich was one of the main royal palaces of England.Some of the most famous English rulers,such as Henry Ⅷ and Elizabeth Ⅰ,not only lived there,but were also born there.Henry Ⅷput an armory(军械库)there,and there were also gardens and a mass of buildings.The Palace of Placentia was also in a strategic location,because at the time either side of Greenwich on the Thames was important places where ships werebuilt and repaired.Eventually,however,the palace fell into bad condition.In 1664,the King at the time,Charles Ⅱ,decided to replace it with completely new buildings in a modern style.Only a cellar(地窖)from the former royal palace now remains,under one of the new buildings.Its red brick,typical of the sixteenth century,contrasts sharply with the white stone above it.Would you like to join us to have a good view of Greenwich?6.The buildings on the south bank of the Thames at Greenwich________.A.are now still used as part of a universityB.are similar to those in the 16th centuryC.were designed in the style of Elizabeth ⅠD.are the most impressive buildings in England7.The Palace of Placentia ________.A.ever served as a naval hospitalB.was constructed of white stonesC.was designed by Christopher WrenD.was of particular importance in time of war8.Why did Charles Ⅱ replace the palace?A.Because it was in need of repair.B.Because he didn't like its color.C.Because it was located underground.D.Because it was in an old style.9.When did the Palace of Placentia disappear from the ground according to the passage?A.In the late 1400s.B.In the early 1600s.C.In the late 1600s. D.In the early 1700s.10.This passage can most probably be found in ________.A.a science report B.a personal diaryC.a history textbook D.a travel magazineⅢ.翻译句子1.据说,这个小女孩在英语考试中得了第一。

For me, it's the smell of freshly brewed coffee. Just a sniff of it makes me jump out of bed and rush to the kitchen for a gulp of the hot black liquid。
If you're a big fan of coffee, you'll understand that opening a new packet of coffee releases an amazing smell—fresh, roasted coffee beans。
And you’ll be able to identify the beans' origin-Colombia, Vietnam or Brazil. Tim Hayward is a food writer and coffee shop owner; he believes the smell is absolutely vital. “When you walk into the coffee shop in the morning and that smell hits you, you're getting physiological responses。
”I know from experience when I walk into a cafe, my mouth begins to water and it’s the smell that makes me feel good. However, this feeling sometimes turns to disappointment. This is particularly the case whenI order a coffee to go in a tall paper cup and sip the liquid througha hole in the lid。

It was my mama's love and encouragement 10.______gave me the confidence to overcome my own doubt.Ⅱ.阅读理解Increasingly over the last few years,we have become familiar with the range of small electronic devices or “smart” accessories(附件,饰品). Pocket heart-rate monitors for joggers and electronic maps are just the first examples of many new products that promise to change our lives in all sorts of surprising ways.As a scientist at New York University, Rosalind Picard tries out different smart accessories before they go on the market. One of these was the so-called “frown (皱眉)headband”. Rosalind was shocked to realize just how often she frowned. Stuck in a traffic jam recently, Rosalind kept hearing the sounds of the tiny sensor inside the band worn around her forehead—each time she frowned in annoyance, the sensor gave out a signal.Another computer scientist, Steven Feiner, is working on a pair of glasses that will do more than help you to see.Imagine you want to try a restaurant in a foreign city but you're not familiar with the dishes on the menu. If you are wearing a pair of Steven's glasses, all you have to do is a glance above the restaurant's doorway and your glasses will immediately become windows to the Internet, offering you full details of the meals served inside. The glasses could also be used to help people make speeches,give chefs access to the latest recipes and even provide doctors with patient information while they carry out operations.At the moment, Steven' s invention looks more like a large skin mask than a pair of glasses.It's a headset connected to a hand-held computer and a Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver, which tracks the wearer's position. But he says that these head-worn displays will eventually get smaller and lighter as technology improves.And, of course, this new technology has a fashionable as well as a useful application.A chemical engineer named Roben Langer has invented a new microchip that, if put inside a ring,can give off different smells according to a person's mood. That, of course, may or may not appeal to you. And,in the end, it is shoppers, not scientists, who will determine which of these smart accessories will succeed as fashionable items and which are sure to join history's long list of crazy inventions.It is clear,however,that as computers get smaller and cheaper, they will pop up in all sorts of easily-wearable accessories,even in the buttons on your coat. What's more, this is something that's going to happen a lot sooner than we all expect.11.When Rosalind wore the headband, she was surprised at ________.A.how well the sensor workedB.how she was affected by trafficC.how strong the signal wasD.how uncomfortable it was12.For people eating out, Steven's glasses can ________.A.give them a restaurant's locationB.let them see a restaurant's environmentC.inform them about a restaurant's menuD.tell them about a restaurant's quality13.What is the current problem with Steven's glasses?A.Limited function.B.Inconvenience.C.High cost.D.Poor Internet access.14.In general, what does the writer think about smart accessories?A.They will soon be widely available.B.More research is needed to put into them.C.Only a few of them will appeal to shoppers.D.Most of them are considered to be crazy inventions.15.What's the writer's purpose of writing this passage?A.To advertise some smart accessories.B.To tell interesting stories about smart accessories.C.To argue that smart accessories are fashionable.D.To introduce the idea of smart accessories.Ⅲ.信息匹配阅读下列应用文及相关信息,并按照要求匹配信息。

As a result, Taylor suffers from cerebral palsy (CP). It is a condition that affects the brain. Kids who are born with CP have trouble controlling the muscles in their body. Taylor is 8 years old now. She uses a power -wheelchair to get around. Her twin sister Sydney participates in sports, but Taylor has a different interest: art.Taylor submitted(提交) a watercolor painting of a sunset in Chesapeake Bay, Virginia, to an art contest. Of the more than 5,500 students who took part in the contest, only 51 were selected. Taylor was one of them. Her winning painting is now being displayed in Union Station, in Washington,D.C. After leaving Union Station, the exhibit will tour the country.The contest was sponsored by VSA, the international organization on arts and disability. The nonprofit group was started to give people with disabilities an opportunity to participate in the arts. Submissions for the contest came from students with and without disabilities. The exhibition is part of VSA's International Arts Festival and was also sponsored by CVS Caremark's All Kids Can program.Art Changed Her LifeAmanda LaMunyon represented Oklahoma in the exhibition. She just finished her freshman year of high school. When Amanda was in elementary school, she had problems focusing and following rules. She has Asperger Syndrome, which is a form of autism.“People started looking at her differently,”her mother, Sherry LaMunyon, said.“They stopped looking at her as a girl who was struggling and started looking at her as an artist. It's changed her whole life.”The president of VSA, Soula Antoniou, said that the point of the exhibition is to focus on students' abilities, rather than their disabilities.“What we're trying to do i s make sure each student finds something they're good at,”she said.That's exactly what Taylor's done. While she has some difficulty with fine motor skills, she's found that she's talented with wide brush strokes(画) in painting.Inspiring OthersBefore fin ding painting, Amanda said she had trouble fitting in.“I didn't have anything that I felt was my talent,”she said. Now she's more focused on school and is interested in studying fashion design and theater.Amanda hopes the exhibition will show others that even if they have disabilities, they have abilities they don't even know yet.

B.A magazine.C.The Internet. D.A report.BThe Lord of the Rings, one of the best sellers in the new millennium (千年), was made up of three parts—The Fellowship of the Ring, Two Towers, and The Return of the King. Millions upon millions of people have read it in over 25 different languages, but fewer know about the author and the history of the composition of the creative masterwork.John Ronald Reuel Tolkien was born in South Africa in 1892.His parents died when he was a child.Living in England with his aunt, Tolkien and his cousins made up play languages, a hobby that led to Tolkien's becoming skilled in Welsh, Greek, Gothic, Old Norse and Anglo-Saxon.After graduating from Oxford, Tolkien served in World War I. In 1917, while recovering from trench fever, he began composing the mythology (神话) for The Rings. As a professor of Anglo -Saxon in 1930s at Oxford, Tolkien was part of an informal discussion group called the Inklings, which included several writers. The group was soon listening to chapters of Tolkien's imaginative work The Hobbit.Hobbit was a name Tolkien created for local people that could best be described as half -sized members of the English rural (乡村的) class.

Critics call her one of the greatest writers of our time.Lucille Clifton was born Thelma Lucille Sayles in Depew, New York in 1936. She was named Thelma after her mother. Lucille was the name of one of her father's ancestors. When the younger one got older she chose to call herself Lucille.Lucille Clifton began writing poetry when she was about ten years old. She had developed an interest in poetry because of her mother, Thelma Sayles. Her mother was also a poet although her poems were never published. As a child Lucille would sit on her mother's lap and listen as she read poetry. She learned to love words and the power of words. That stayed with her as she grew.While her mother taught her to love poetry, her father gave her the gift of storytelling. He would tell Lucille interesting stories about her ancestors, especially the one named Lucille who was his grandmother. Samuel Clifton said she was the first black woman to be legally hanged in the state of Virginia. Lucille Clifton wrote about it in her poem called Lucy.She often talked about her love for words. She loved the sound of words and the way the words felt in her mouth. She loved finding interesting ways to use words to express what was happening in the world.Unlike her mother, Lucille Clifton's poetry was anything but traditional. Her poems do not rhyme or follow a special kind of pattern. They do not use fancy words. They do not deal in makebelieve. Her poetry is known for being simple, truthful and direct. It is written the way people speak, in a casual, relaxed language. There is very little punctuation(标点) and even less capitalization. Many of the poems are uncomfortably honest. Lucille Clifton often said that she tried to comfort the afflicted and afflict the comfortable. Over the years, she seems to have perfected that art.11. Which of the following may be the reason why Lucille Clifton chose to call herself Lucille instead of Thelma?A.To show her love to her mother.B.To show her love to her beloved teacher.C.To show respect to her great-grandmother.D.To show her respect to a great poet.12. From the passage, we know that Lucille Clifton is ________.A.funny B.creativeC.selfish D.beautiful13. What can be inferred from the passage?A.Lucille Clifton's parents affected her a lot.B.Lucille Clifton's poetry was very traditional.C.Thelma Sayles published many poems.D.Lucille Clifton's poetry was very formal.14. What is the main idea of the last paragraph?A.Lucille Clifton's great works.B.Lucille Clifton's poem background.C.Lucille Clifton's poem style.D.Lucille Clifton's poem words.15. The u nderlined pronoun “it” in the fourth paragraph probably refers to ________.A.Samuel CliftonB.Samuel Clifton's experienceC.Samuel Clifton's grandmotherD.Lucille's great-grandmother's storyBDu Fu(712~770) was one of the greatest poets in the Tang Dynasty. His poetry first came to be recognized at the Tang Dynasty. Readers of many different periods have considered Du Fu to be the greatest poet of the Chinese tradition. Such general agreement can partially be explained by the immense variety of his works, which hold up quite well to different tastes and historical changes in fashion. Like Shakespeare in English tradition, Du Fu's poetry came to be so deeply bound up with the constitution of literary value that generation after generation of poets and critics rediscovered themselves and their interests in some aspect of the poet.Chinese critics from the Song Dynasty referred to Du Fu as the “poet-historian”. Both before and after the An Lushan Revolt, Du Fu witnessed a typical political and social situation: the common people still lived in poverty while the emperor and his top officials enjoyed a foolishly luxurious life. He composed many poems such as Song of the War Chariots, Three Officials,and Three Departures. His poems expressed his dissatisfaction with the government and his great pity for the common people. Du Fu used his poems to comment on current events and historical images. Du Fu became the historian by creating his responses to particular situations.Du Fu was talented. When he was young, he wanted to get a good job in the government. Unfortunately Du Fu was refused several times. It was in his fifties that he began to serve asa minor official in Chang'an (Xi'an). Gongbu was his official title and probably he was in charge of the local industry.Du Fu was not a skilled survivor in government politics. He was dismissed in the form of a transfer to the post of personnel administrator in Huazhou and so left Chang'an. Du Fu soon gave up this minor post in disgust and set off with his family to Qinzhou in the northwest. After a short stay he moved on again and in 759 he arrived in Chengdu. He set up a modest cottage with some money he borrowed from his friend who served as a local governor. In the cottage he had a simple and peaceful life for three years, writing about 240 poems. Mostly inspired by the cottage, the stream nearby and the scenery in Chengdu, these poems give the impression that he was happier in Chengdu than any other time in his life. The poems of this period sound relaxed and happy.Du Fu left Chengdu after 762 and wandered in the southern provinces and eventually died of illness in 770. After his death, the people of Chengdu built a shrine on the site of his garden to honor him, which is known as part of Du Fu Thatched Cottage now.16.Why does the author compare Du Fu to Shakespeare?A.Du Fu's poetry was written following Shakespeare's style.B.Du Fu's poetry referred to the social change critically.C.Du Fu and Shakespeare were best friends.D.Shakespeare read a lot of Du Fu's poems.17.Du Fu ________ when he was young.A.didn't want to be an officialB.was worried about the educationC.wasn't liked by the emperorD.was not offered an opportunity to work in the government18.What did Du Fu describe in most of his poems?A.The luxurious life that the emperor and his top officials enjoyed.B.His happy life.C.His responses to particular situations.D.His dissatisfaction with the government and his great pity for the common people.19.What did people do after Du Fu died according to the passage?A.They built a shrine to honor him.B.They rebuilt the cottage he had lived into a high building.C.They destroyed his cottage.D.They made a carved statue of him.20.What's the best title of the passage?A.Du Fu-the most important politician in the Tang DynastyB.The origin of Du Fu Thatched CottageC.Du Fu-one of the greatest poets in the Tang DynastyD.Du Fu was not a skilled survivor in government politicsⅢ.读写任务阅读下面的短文,然后按要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。

Children know this very well. Fred Epstein, in his book If I Make It to Fi v e, tells a story he heard from one of his friends about Tom, a four-year-old boy with a cancer in his back bone. He came through several operations and a lot of pain by mastering his imagination.Tom loved to pretend, and he particularly loved to play superheroes. Dr. Epstein explained that it was actually a brilliant way for his young mind to handle the terrifying and painful life he led.The day before his third trip to the operating room, Tom was terribly afraid. “Maybe I could go as Superman,”he whispered to his mom. Hearing this, the mother hesitated for a while. She had avoided buying the expensive costume(戏装), but finally she agreed.The next day Tom appeared as the powerful Superman, showing off through the hospital halls and coolly waving his hand to the people greeting him along the way. And Tom, with the strength of his fantasy, successfully made it through the operation.The power of imagination need not be reserved for children only. We all have the power to use our fantasies to attempt things we never thought possible, to go through those things that seem impossible,and to achieve what we never believed we could. Just as Dr. Epstein puts it,“If you can dream it, you can do it.”It doesn't mean that you should dress as a superhero for your next job interview. But, next time you are tested in a way that seems impossible, imagine what it would take to overcome it. Become the person you need to become to win over your challenge and do it in your mind first. So, let your imagination run wild,and dare todream.1.What do we know about Tom?A.He was seriously ill.B.He was a dishonest boy.C.He was crazy about magic.D.He was Dr. Epstein's patient.2.What can be inferred about Tom's mother?A.She was a rich lady.B.She refused Tom's request.C.She wanted Tom to be a superhero.D.She wanted to get Tom through the pain.3.When Tom went for the third operation, he________.A.pretended to be painfulB.acted like a superheroC.appeared in poor spiritsD.argued with his mother4.In the last paragraph, you are advised________.A.to go through some difficult testsB.to wake up from your wild dreamsC.to become a powerful person in your mindD.to wear expensive clothes for job interviews5.What is the purpose of the passage?A.To tell us an interesting story.B.To help us make right decisions.C.To advise us to care about children.D.To encourage us to use our imagination.Ⅳ.翻译句子1.我对那个男孩失去了信心,不再相信他了。

(three-tenths of an ounce).To complete a voyage that can be thousands of kilometers long,birds have to fatten themselves up to twice their normal weight.Some even shrink their internal organs (收缩内脏)to become more fuel efficient,so any additional distance may be dangerous.The study finds that from 2071 to 2100,nine out of 17 species examined are going to face longer migrations,particularly birds that cross the Sahara Desert.Some birds traverse the Sahara and the Mediterranean Sea in a one-go,while others have a break in northern Africa before crossing.Many fly at night,when temperatures are cooler.A few—such as the Blackcap—have started to adapt by spending winters in Britain,but such behaviour remains exceptional,the study said.The study forecaststhat the migration distance of the Orphean Warbler will jump from 2,700 kilometers(1,700 miles)to between 3,050 and 3,350 kilometers(1,900 and 2,1 00miles),with even longer increases for the Subalpine and Barred Warblers.1.What does travelling extra distance mean for some migrating birds?A.Better living conditions.B.Better physical health.C.Stronger ability to fly.D.Bigger threat to life.2.To complete the marathon migrations,some birds have to do the following except________.A.have a break in SaharaB.put on more weightC.reduce the size of internal organsD.fly at night to avoid the heat3.What does the underlined wo rd“traverse”in the fourth paragraph mean?A.Examine. B.Face.C.Cross. D.Challenge.4.What can we infer from the text?A.Birds have to migrate from Africa to Europe in winter.B.Global warming is bad for all birds worldwide.C.Birds that are of small size don't need to migrate.D.Some birds have to migrate unless they adapt to climate change.5.What's the BEST title of the text?A.Climate change leads to disastrous consequenceB.The annual voyage of some speciesC.How birds migrate for longer distancesD.Climate change pushes birds to migrate fartherⅣ.翻译句子1.如不问他,他什么也不说。

While fighting world hunger continues to be the matter of vital importance according to a recent report from the World Health Organization (WHO), more people now die from being overweight, or say, from being extremely fat, than from being underweight. It's the good life that's more likely to kill us these days.Worse, nearly 18 million children under the age of five around the world are estimated to be overweight. What's going on?We really don't have many excuses for our weight problems. The dangers of the problem have been drilled into us by public-health campaigns since 2001 and the message is getting through—up to a point.In the 1970s, Finland, for example, had the highest rate of heart disease in the world and being overweight was its main cause. Not any more. A public-health campaign has greatly reduced the number of heart disease deaths by 80 per cent over the past three decades.Maybe that explains why the percentage of people in Finland taking diet pills doubled between 2001 and 2005, and doctors even offer surgery of removing fat inside and change the shape of the body. That has become a sort of fashion. No wonder it ranks as the world's most body -conscious country.We know what we should be doing to lose weight—but actually doing it is another matter. By far the most popular excuse is not taking enough exercise. More than half of us admit we lack willpower.Others blame good food. They say: it's just too inviting and it makes them overeat. Still others lay the blame on the Americans, complaining that pounds have piled on thanks to eating too much American-style fast food.Some also blame their parents—their genes. But unfortunately, the parents are wronged because they're normal in shape,or rather slim.It's a similar story around the world, although people are relatively unlikely to have tried to lose weight. Parents are eager to see their kids shape up. Do as I say—not as I do.1.What is the “strange” point mentioned in the first sentence?A.The good life is a greater risk than the bad life.B.Starvation is taking more people's lives in the world.C.WHO report shows people's unawareness of food safety.D.Overweight issue remains unresolved despite WHO'sefforts.2.Why does the author think that people have no excuse for being overweight?A.A lot of effective diet pills are available.B.Body image has nothing to do with good food.C.They have been made fully aware of its dangers.D.There are too many overweight people in the world.3.The example of Finland is used to illustrate________.A.the cause of heart diseaseB.the fashion of body shapingC.the effectiveness of a campaignD.the history of a body-conscious country4.Which would be the best title for the passage?A.Actions or Excuses?B.Overweight or Underweight?C.WHO in a DilemmaD.No Longer Dying of HungerBIt is well known that the Japanese people's love of fish is almost as strong as a bee's interest in honey.As fish populations were decreasing,fishing companies were forced to fish further and further away from the shore.Then they had a big challenge—how to keep the fish fresh for longer.So they decided to keep the fish stored in freezers on the boats.But the public did not like frozen fish.So again the fishing companies had a new bigger challenge.What they decided to do was have fish tanks on their boats.After catching fishes,they would put them in the tanks and keepthem living there until they got back to shore.But in this protected environment,lacking predators(掠食者),the fish stopped moving around.The Japanese public felt these dull fish did not taste fresh,which had an unpleasant effect upon sales.Once again the fishing companies had an even bigger challenge...Stop for a minute!Before we go any further,I would like to ask “What are your challenges?How do you handle an unexpected challenge?”May I think it this way that you should try to attack your challenges?Conquer them with a Swiss Army knife.Take the most proper and simple tool that you can adopt to deal with your situation.Now back to our story.How did the Japanese finally figure out the fresh fish problem?Sharks!You might think the same.Sharks were caught and put into the tanks with other fishes.Don't sharks eat fish?Well,they do eat a few fish,but they did also keep more fish active and alert(警觉的).The fish stay fresh because they are challenged.Now,try_to_keep_yourself_fresh_by_finding_your_own_shark_to_offer_yourself_a_challenge_in_your _own_business_and_career.5.The main reason for the fishing companies to fish in the far sea is that________.A.the fish resource near the shore was decreasingB.the fishes farther away from the sea tasted fresherC.people would prefer eating fresh fishes to less fresh onesD.it was getting harder and harder to keep fishesfresh6.Which was the BEST way for the fishing companies to keep fishes fresh?A.Getting the fishes frozen.B.Storing the fishes with salt.C.Putting the fishes in tanks.D.Keeping the fishes with sharks.7.The relationship between fishes and sharks is similar to that between________in nature.A.dogs and catsB.monkeys and mosquitoesC.wolves and antelopesD.tigers and lions8.The purpose for the author to write the passage is to________.A.tell the readers how the Japanese fishing companies workB.tell the readers how the Japanese keep the fishes freshC.suggest readers looking for challenges to makeprogressD.suggest readers finding a shark to keep the fishes freshⅣ.翻译句子1.我们习惯于早起做早操了。

are advertised on its TV channels,radio stations and websites will have to meet the company's nutrition standard for limiting calories and reducing fat,sodium and sugar.Many foods,such as fruit drinks,candy and snack cakes,won't meet the standard.First Lady Michelle Obama called it a“game changer”.“Disney is doing what no major media company has ever done before in the U.S.-and what I hope every company will do in the future.”“This is a landmark(里程碑),because a major media company is taking responsibility for what food they advertise to children.”says Margo Wootan,director of nutrition policy for the Center for Science in the Public Interest.“This should be a real wake-up call to Nickelodeon(an American children's channel)and the Cartoon Network to do the same.”But the company will still be able to advertise“better-for-you versions(种类)of products that are not perfectly nutritious.”Under the new standards,breakfast cereals that are advertised will have to contain fewer than 10 grams of sugar in a serving,Wootan says.“That's a good step forward,but it's not perfectly nutritious.”Jon Leibowitz,chairman of the Federal Trade Commission,says Disney is making this move“at perhaps some risk of affecting their incomes,so that's why we should praise them.”Food marketing is really“important because it shapes the way kids are fed,”Wootan says.“If we don't deal with food marketing to kids,we don't have any chance of addressing childhood obesity.”Currently,a third of children are overweight,putting them at a greater risk for serious health problems.At its theme parks,Disney began offering healtheir kids' meals,serving carrots and other vegetables,fruits,low-fat milk and yogurt at meals,instead of fries and soft drinks.1.The underl ined word “it” in Paragraph 3 probably refers to ________.A.the wake-up callB.the Walt Disney CompanyC.the habit of eating junk foodD.the nutrition standard in the US2.What does Margo Wootan think of Disney's new move?A.He thinks it is a risk.B.He thinks very highly of it.C.He thinks it will get wide support.D.He thinks it will affect their incomes.3.According to Disney's new standards,________.A.soft drinks are not allowed to be advertisedB.foods that are advertised should be fat-freeC.only perfectly nutritious products can be advertisedD.foods advertised should contain fewer than 10 grams of sugar4.What can we learn from Margo Wootan's words in Paragraph 7?A.The cause of childhood obesity.B.The importance of food marketing.C.Childhood obesity is not a big problem.D.Many kids are worried about their shapes.5.What is the main idea of the text?A.Disney calls for a ban on junk food.B.Disney aims to help kids lose weight.C.Disney is to serve healthier food for kids.D.Disney is to quit taking ads for junk food aimed at kids.B(2013·中山高二调研)It is well known that the Japanese people's love of fish is almost as strong as a bee's interest in honey.As fish populations were decreasing,fishing companies were forced to
