He developed unmanned vehicles to explore the ocean bottom. His first find, the wellknown ship Titanic, made Ballard famous. He was not happy with just one big find, however. He looked for — and found —other wellknown ships. One was the German battleship Bismarck. Another was th e U.S.S. Yorktown, an aircraft carrier (航空母舰) that sank during World War Ⅱ.

Stiviano says Donald Sterling’s racist comments on an audio recording leaked to the public were not the first by the Los Angeles Clippersowner in conversations with her.“There’s been a number of occasions where Mr. Sterling and I had conversationsjust like this one. This was one of very many,” Stiviano told Barbara Walters on ABC’s “20/20” in an interview that aired Friday night. “Part of what the world heard was only 15 minutes. There’re a numb er of other hours that the world doesn’tknow. ”Sterling, who has b een banned for life by the NBA for the remarks, also spoke forthe first time since the scandal. “I wish I had just paid her off,” Sterling told DuJour. com, referring to Stiviano. According to the person who conducted theinterview, Sterling “expressed remorse”.Sterling told Stiviano in the recording that she should not post online photos of herself with black people, including basketball great Magic Johnson, or bring blackpeople to Clippers’ games. The recording, which an attorney for Stiviano said was leaked by a third party,led to public outcry across the country and the NBA. Some sponsors dropped the Clippers and others reevaluated their rela tionship with the NBA. On Tuesday, NBA Commissioner Adam Silver banned Sterling for life, fined him $2.5 million, and urged league owners to force him to sell the team. A threequarters voteby the NBA owners is required to force him to sell. Though Stivia no told Walters that Sterling should “absolutely” apologize, she said she still loves him like a father figure and does not beli eve he is a racist.“I think Mr. Sterling is from a different generation than I am,” she said. “I think he was brought up to believe these things ...segregation, whites and blacks. But through his actions he’s shown that he’s not a racist. He’s shown to be a verygenerous and kind man.”Stiviano said that since the ban, Sterling has felt confused, alone, and notsupported by those around him.“I think he’s highly more traumatized and hurt by the things that he said himself,” she said.“I think he can’t even believe or understand sometimes the thing he says, an d I think he’s hurt by it. He’s hurting right now. ”A realestate mogul, Sterling has been accused of racial missteps before.The billionaire had paid a $ 2.76 million settlement to resolve a federal lawsuit accusing him of systematically excluding blacks and Hispanics from his rental properties. He also won a wrongful termination lawsuit by general manager ElginBaylor, who accused him of various slurs and slights.5.Which of the section does this article probably appear in a newspaper?B.Business Section.A.Sports Section.D.Science Section.C.Lifestyle Section.6.Which of the following is TRUE about Sterling according to the passage?A.He is a wealthy sportsman doing realestate business.B.He has got a big ticket for the racist remarks he made.C.He is very generous and kind to his daughter Stiviano.D.He feels it hard to believe or understand what he says.7.What do you think will probably happen as the story develops?A.Sterling will probably no l onger own his team under certain pressure.B.The NBA will have trouble existing for the lack of financial support.C.Stiviano will continue loving Sterling in spite of his racist remarks.D.Blacks and Hispanics will accuse Sterling of his constant racist words.8.The passage is meant to ________.A.show the strong anger of the whole public against racism B.warn the public of racism that still exists in American societyC.tell readers how the audio recording was leaked to the publicD.report Donald Sterling’s racist comments and consequences答案Ⅰ.1.选 C 句意:调查显示:一些主要的出版社、机构和企业已经开始针对新时期作出调整,为的是满足社会和经济变革的需求。

The part of the brain devoted to attention is connected to the brain’s emotional center. Any strong emotion —quarrels with colleagues, problems at home —can interrupt our attention. Studies over the last decade have shown that too much work to do at a time can easily lead to distraction.Refocusing is hard for many people. Robert Epstein suggests the following, “Stop and listen to music for a few minutes. Go for a short walk or take a deep breath, when you breathe in deeply, count to five slowly, hold it and breathe out very slowly.” This can “blow out all the tension and the unwanted in your mind to restore your focus.”Take more control by structuring your time and becoming more aware of your behaviors. “Setting the phone alarm to go off every hour is my way of creating awareness,” Mr.Bregman says,“You have to inform yourself that you’ve lost focus in order to do something about it”. Starting the day with a todo list is important, such as when to eat, when to go to the gym or take a walk.But if it’s overly ambitious, you will put yourself in a state of anxiety, which makes it hard for the brai n to concentrate.“Choosing three or four things as your priority for the day allows your brain to settle down and focus,” he says.Topic How to become more (1)________ on the work?(2)________ of getting distracted ●People tend to get away fro m things that they’re(3)________up with.●Strong (4) ________affect the brain s part for attention.●People get distracted easily if (5)________ multitasks ata time.(6) ________ of strong emotions ●having a (7) ________ with a colleague.●meeting with problems a t home.Tips on holding attention ●Stop working to restore your focus by (8) ________your breath and try different relaxing things.●(9)________ your time effectively and create awareness of your behaviors.●Make a todo list at the beginning of a working day.●Focus on 3 or 4 things and get them done (10) ________ for the day.答案Ⅰ.语篇解读:失去朝夕相处的丈夫,悲伤犹在,为了找回过去的温馨,作者走进过去和丈夫经常去的超市,就在这里,作者意外感受到了温暖,原来自己并不孤独,仍然有人关心。

课后分层集训Unit 3 Understanding each otherⅠ.阅读理解A(2017·长春高三质检)It's hard to talk to Dad sometimes.His silence about his feelings and thoughts made him mysterious and hard to see through.You could never break his hard shell and get to know him.And he seemed to want to stay that way too.But a year ago when my relationship with my wife and career took a hit,I needed my dad to pull_back_the_curtain so I could see him as real and accessible.I was facing serious problems,and I wanted to know whether he had faced them before and how he had found his way,because I felt like I had lost mine.In desperation,it occurred to me that sending an email might be the key,so I wrote him one,telling him about my regrets and fears,and I asked him to answer,if he felt like it.Two weeks later,it showed up in my inbox:a muchthought,threepage letter.Dad,a 68yearold retired technologist and grandfather of four,had carefully considered my message,and crafted a response.He mentioned his lost love,the foolish mistake he made in career and the stupid pride he had between him and his parents.He comforted me that “life will still find its right track despite many of its twists and turns”.I closed the email and started to cry,because I wished I had opened it up earlier but was grateful it wasn't too late.I cried because at 33,in the midst of my own struggles,his letter instantly put me at ease.And I cried because in the end,it was so simple:I just had to hit “Send”.We've since had many email exchanges.This increasing communication opened a door into his world.My problems haven't been magically solved,but getting to know my dad better has made the tough stuff more manageable and life sweeter.It's hard to talk to dads sometimes,but I'm glad I found a way to talk to mine.【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。

Or does the thoughtof wandering round the shops fill you with terror? For some of us,shopping is an enjoyable way of spending our spare time and ourmoney.For me,it’s something I would rather avoid.Thank good ness for the Internet! It’s more convenient to buy CDs,electrical items,even food,from the comfort of your sofa.But that’s not the only reason: price is an important factor.We can buy goods and services cheaper online.But sometimes the problem is knowing what to buy.This has led to a type of shopping called“showrooming”.Showrooming is something I’ve done.I will go to a shop to see,touch and try out products but then go home and buy them online at a knock-down price. I’m not alone in doing this.Research by a company called Foolproof,found 24% of people showroomed while Christmas shopping in 2013.Amy Cashman,Head of Technology at TNS UK,says the reasons for this new shopping habit are that“people are lacking time,lacking money and they want security about the products they are buying”.She explains that consumers are not only shopping online at home but they are using the Internet in store or on their smartphones to shop around.But does this mean technology will kill shops? Certainly shops will change.They will have to offer more competitive prices or encourage people to buy more by giving in-store discounts or free gifts.We mustn’t forget that buying in a shop means you can get expert advice from the sales assistant and you can get good aftercare.I t’s good to speak to a real human rather than look at a faceless computer screen but at least by showrooming,you get the best of both worlds!1.The two questions in Paragraph 1 are raised to ________.A.introduce the topicB.give two examplesC.compare different opinionsD.get answers from readers2.What does showrooming mean in the text?A.Trying in shops and buying online.B.Showing products in a room.C.Buying something in a store.D.Shopping on the Internet.3.According to Amy Cashman,which is NOT the reason for showrooming?A.The lack of time.B.The comfort of the sofa.C.The shortness of money.D.The security of the product.4.What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?A.Online shops will disappear.B.Free gifts will surely promote sales.C.Shops need necessary changes.D.Shops will be replaced by online shops.5.The author’s attitude towards showrooming is ________.A.critical B.neutralC.supportive D.casualB(2015·湘潭高三调研)When a shop is authentic and the workersare friendly,it can feel like a second home for consumers,according to a new study in the Journal of ConsumerResearch.“People often feel strong ly attached to particular places.Such places typically include their homes,but can also include commercial places such as stores and restaurants,”wrote authors Alain Dehenedetti (Univerisité Paris Est—IRG),Harmen Oppewal(Monash University),and Zeynep Arsel (Concordia University).“How do people develop and experience place attachment when the place concerns a commercial setting,where they are just customers,and the place is owned or controlled by someone else?”Consumers from strong emotional bonds with locations when they experience familiarity.Consumers also value authenticity and personal relationships.“It also helps if it is a place where one can feel safe and secure,protected from not only disturbing staff but also from aggressive promotional activities,”the authors wrote.“The place does not have to be a splendid flagship store.People can build attachments with quite ordinary places,as long as the place meets the above criteria(标准) of familiarity,authenticity and security.”The authors gained these insights from interviews with a sample of French consumers who talked about their experiences with the places they most treasure:Cafés,restaurants,department stores,concert halls,and libraries.The final phase of the study focused on patrons of a particular French wine bar.The authors also found that once consumers bond with a commercial space,they are willing to make efforts or sacrifices to support it.Satisfied customers may pay higher tips,volunteer to help the business,and serve as ambassadors,linking other c onsumers to the business.“Consumers treat their special place as a treasured gift and in return want to support the establishment beyond what is expected of them as customers,”the authors concluded.6.Which of the following does NOT contribute to consumers’ attachment?A.Splendour. B.Familiarity.C.Authenticity. D.Safety.7.Where was the study probably carried out?A.America. B.China.C.France. D.Unknown.8.The last paragraph mainly deals with ________.A.extra reward from attached consumersB.the importance of treating consumers wellC.how to develop bonds with consumersD.the relationship between consumers and commercial places9.Who will benefit most from the result of the study?A.Consumers. B.Store managers.C.The store staff. D.Ambassadors.10.What’s the best title of the passage?A.Ways to Attract More ConsumersB.The Secret of Successful ManagementC.Consumers’ AttachmentD.The Criteria of Successful CompaniesⅤ.阅读填空(2015·长沙重点中学高三月考)Scientists,doctors and mental health professionals have been studying the connection between color and mood for years.Many now believe that colors can not only cause emotional reactions,but can also correct mood.Colors behave in three basic ways: active,passive and neutral (中和的).Active colors are warm colors,including yellow,orange and red.These colors bring confidence.Warm colors can also bring cheerful attitudes.Yellows and golden colors work well in offices,kitchens and study areas.Reds heat up a room.Passive colors or cool colors make people calm,quiet and satisfied.Bedrooms,private areas and bathrooms are great places for blues and greens.Beige,gray and white are thought of as neutral colors.They help to put the focus on other colors or serve to tone down (使柔和) colors that might otherwise be overpowering on their own.You can easily change the look or feel of a room by making good use of different colors.Mixing and matching colors is an excellent way to balance color and emotion,and provide a welcoming feel for guests.To create a feeling of warmth and comfort in a room,use bright,warm colors like yellow,orange and red.These colors are good choices for rooms that appear cool due to limited sunlight.Yellow adds cheerfulness to dull rooms.You can add yellows to rooms which are not closely related to happy thoughts,such as kitchens and laundry room.In rooms where there’s plenty of sunshine,cool colors can provide a calming environment.Sage greens and sky blues are perfect for bedrooms,playrooms and activity areas.Neutral colors,such as pale gray,white and beige,send a peaceful message to your brain.It’s not a coincidence that most doctor’s offices,coffee shops and mental health centers are decorated in neutrals.To make your wall color choices better,pick out furniture that will provide a visual contrast.Cool colors make a room seem larger than it is and warm colors make rooms feel smaller.Title: The Connection Between 1.____________Ⅵ.阅读简答(2015·湖南高考命题研究专家原创卷)Does Physical Activity Lead to Higher Grades?Now,research shows that physical activity may help students do better in their classes. The research comes as educators in some countries are reducing time for activities like physical education. They are using the time instead for academic subjects like math and reading.Researcher Amika Singh says the studies showed a link between physical activity and scores on subjects such as math,English and reading.Based on the results of our study we can conclude that being physically active is beneficial for academic performance.Ms.Singh offers some possible explanations.There are,first, physiological explanations, like more blood flow, and so more oxygen to the brain.Being physically active means there are more hormones produced like endorphins.And endorphins make your stress level lower and your mood improved, which means you also perform better.Also, students involved in organized sports learn rules and how to follow them. This could improve their classroom behavior and help them keep their mind on their work.The study leaves some questions unanswered, however.Ms.Singh says it is not possible to say whether the amount or kind of activity affected the level of academic improvement.This is because of differences among the studies.Also,they were mostly observational studies. An observational study is where researchers do not do controlled comparisons.They only describe what they observe.So they might observe a link that students who are more active often have better grades.But that does not necessarily mean being active is the cause of those higher grades.Still, the general finding was that physically active kids are more likely to do better in school.Ms.Singh says schools should consider that finding before they cut physical education programs.1.What did the research conclude about the relationship between physical activity and academic performance?(No more than 10 words)________________________________________________________________________ 2.What’s the function of endorphins?(No more than 10 words)________________________________________________________________________ 3.What are the benefits of learning organized sports rules and how to follow them for students?(No more than 15 words)________________________________________________________________________ 4.What is the purpose of writing the passage?(No more than 10 words)________________________________________________________________________课后达标检测18Ⅰ.单项填空1.解析:选B。

Unit 3 Understanding each other一、阅读理解。
Doctors in hospital emergency rooms often see accidental poisonings. A frightened parent arrives with a child who swallowed a cleaning liquid. Or perhaps the harmful substance is a medicine. Or it might be a chemical product meant to kill insects. These are mon causes of accidental poisoning.In cases like this, seek medical help as soon as possible. Save the container of whatever caused the poisoning. And look on the container for information about anything that stops the effects of the poison. Save anything expelled from the mouth of the victim. That way, doctors can examine it.Millions of people know a way to save a person who is choking on something trapped in the throat. The method is monly known as the Heimlich Maneuver or abdominal thrusts(腹部按压), which you can do by getting directly behind a sitting or standing person. Put your arms around the victim’s waist. Close one hand to form a ball. Place it over the upper part of the stomach, below the ribs. Place the other hand on top. Then push forcefully inward and upward. Repeat the abdominal thrusts until the object is expelled from the mouth. For someone who is pregnant or very fat, place your hands a little higher than with normal abdominal thrusts.Red Cross experts say taking these steps can save many lives. But they also warn that abdominal thrusts are not for people who have almost drowned. They say use of the method could delay other ways to re-start breathing in the victim. Abdominal thrusts should be used only in cases where a near-drowning victim is choking on an object.To learn more about first aid, ask a hospital or organization like a Red Cross or Red Crescent Society for information. There may be training classes offered in your area.1. According to the first paragraph, which of the following is NOT the mon cause of accidental poisonings?A. A harmful medicineB. A cleaning liquidC. Poisonous insectsD. Dangerous pesticide(杀虫剂)2. The underlined word “expelled” in paragraph 2 can be replaced by “_________ ”.A. ing outB. taking upC. going awayD. getting down3. Why abdominal thrusts are not for people who have almost drowned?A. Because people are unwilling to attempt rescue effortsB. Because it is hard to performC. Because it is no need to do soD. Because it could hold up other ways to re-start breathing in the victim4. What is the author’s purpose in writing this text?A. To promote medical researchB. To share some knowledge about first aidC. To show how to perform abdominal thrustsC.To help people deal with accidental poisoning【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了意外中毒的主要原因及急救方法。

Once, when we were discussing death, my son jokingly remarked, “Well, I certainly hope there are heavenly guides, Mother, otherwise, you will never find theway.”Smiling, I assured him that I wasn't worried. “I'll just watch for t he hill withthe privet hedge (女贞树篱),” I said. When his eyebrows came together in aquestioning frown, I began to tell him a story about my father. Pop was raised in a fatherless home at a time when government assistance was unheard of, so the family of five struggledmightilyto survive. That Spartan (斯巴达人) upbringing caused my father to be extremely mean. When we children —two older brothers and myself —became aware that other children got spending money from their parents, we made the mistake of asking Pop for some. His face turned stone cold.“If you're old enough to ask, you're old enough to earn,” he rumbled. And so, when the need arose, we went to the neighborhood quicklyseeking odd jobs or selling produce from the garden. His attitude didn't soften as we grew into adulthood and drifted away to jobs or college. There was a period of time when none of us had a car, so we had to ride the bus whenever we came home. Though the bus stopped about two miles from home, Pop never met us, even in severe weather. If someone complained, he'd say in his loudestfathervoice, “That's what your legs are for!”So when I went away to college, I knew I was in for a long walk whenever I came home. The walk didn't bother me as much as the fear of walking alone along the highway and country roads. I also felt less than valued that my father didn't seem concerned about my safety. However, that feeling was canceled one spring evening. It had been a particularly difficult week at college. Tests and long hours in labshad left me exhausted. I longed for home and a soft bed. As other students were met at their stops, I gazed wistfully out the window. Finally, the bus stopped at my destination point, and I stepped off, lugging my suitcase to begin the long trek home.A row of privet hedge edged the driveway that climbed the hill to our house. OnceI had turned off the highway to start the last lap of my journey, I was alwaysrelieved to see the hedge because it meant that I was almost home. On that particular evening, the hedge had just come into view when a gentle rain began to fall. I stopped to put a book in my suitcase and when I stood up, I saw something gray skimming along the top of the hedge, moving toward the house. Uponcloser observation, I realized it was the top of my father's head. Then I knew — each time I'd come home, he had stood behind the hedge, watching, until he knew I had arrived safely. I swallowed hardagainst the threatening tears. He did care, after all. On later visits, that spot of gray became my beacon (指路明灯). I could hardly wait until I was close enough to watch for its covert (若隐若现) movement above the greenery. Upon reaching home, I would find my father sitting innocently in his chair.“So! It's you!” he'd say, his face lengthening into mock surprise.“So you see,” I told my son, “I'm not worried about finding my way to heaven when I die.”I think I'll see a row of privet hedge climbing a hill, and my fatherwill be waiting at the top. “So! It's you!” he'll say.And I'll reply as I did then, “Yes, Pop,it's me.
