高中英语学习材料（灿若寒星*制作整理）Book 5 Unit 2 The United Kingdom单元测试第二部分：阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
A★★☆☆☆What does family mean to you? Could you capture it in a photograph? If so, our great new competition is for you! All you have to do is take a picture that sums up your sense of family life.The competition will be judged by the RD (Reader’s Digest) team andaward-winning photo-grapher Barry Marsden. To get your creative juices flowing, here are two of our regular photographers’ tips for taking great pictures.Pal HansenThe most important thing is to carry a camera around with you at all times. Use manual (手动的) settings as much as possible. Now that everything is digital I’d also say, “Shoot as much as possible,” because it doesn’t cost a nything.Michelle McCarronKids find wonder in the simplest things, so as a photographer it helps to be ready for those moments. The connection across generations is sometimes best captured in a photograph. Frame your subject well. Get close to the action, or your subject, and choose your angle (角度) carefully. A slightly odd angle can make a photo different.HOW TO ENTER★ Take a clear photo with either a phone or digital camera. Send it to rdphotocomp@readersdigest. by 5 pm, August 30, 2014. Please include a brief explanation of who’s in the entry (参赛作品).★There are two categories — one for adults and one for under-18s.★In the adult category, the winner will receive £500. The under-18 winner will receive £250 of high-street vouchers (代金券) for a store of their choice.Rules:Please make sure that pictures are not published before.If you are under 16 you must ask your parent’s permission to enter this competition.We will use entries in all print and electronic media. We cannot return your entry.Entry is not open to employees of Vivat Direct Ltd (trading as Reader’s Digest) and all other persons associated with this competition, their immediate families, and relatives living in an employee’s household. The judges’ d ecision is final.21. What do we know about the photo competition?A. It is designed for readers of RD.B. Entries must be about family.C. Photos must be taken by a camera.D. Pal Hansen is one of its judges.22. To take part in the competition, one should _____.A. be 18 years old or aboveB. send in his entry in AugustC. ask his family’s permissionD. give a description of his entry23. According to the text, winners of the competition will _____.A. each win￡500B. get their entries backC. see their pictures publishedD. be offered some vouchersB★★☆☆☆He runs from explosions, drives over waterfalls and jumps from tall buildings. That might sound like Superman, but stuntman (特技演员) Vince Deadrick Jr. is very much human.As a stuntman in movies and television shows, Deadrick admits he’s no stranger to getting hurt. He has suffered broken bones, bled, gotten knocked out and nearly fallen to his death, but he considers himself lucky to be alive after some of the stunts he has performed.Deadrick has been a stunt coordinator (协调员) for the Nickelodeon channel for 12 years. He has worked with famous actors, directors and producers, and he has traveled all over the world. But that doesn’t mean his work is easy.It took him years of hard work to g et where he is today. Deadrick’s father, Vince Deadrick Sr., was also a stuntman, but his family connection didn’t give Deadrick a free pass into the movie business. He learned from his dad how to set up cardboard boxes and fall pads for high falls, and he started training on his own once he decided to follow in his father’s footsteps.As a stunt coordinator, Deadrick takes danger seriously. When he hires a new stunt performer, he looks for a professional.“You’re only as good as the people you hire,” he sa ys. A stuntman needs to know his own abilities and limitations so he won’t shy away from doing his best but also won’t be such a daredevil (铤而走险的人) that he could hurt himself or others.When the actors and stuntmen are going to do something dangerous, they need to know they’re trusting the right person. With over 40 years in the business, Deadrick is an expert at making stunts both realistic and safe.Though he has a large amount of responsibility, Deadrick loves his job.“I’m in a position where I have to make decisions on risk factors, keeping the actors and stuntmen safe while still making it look impressive. I love my business, and I love the excitement.”24. It can be inferred from Paragraph 2 that Deadrick is _____.A. carelessB. optimisticC. unfortunateD. generous25. What do we know about Deadrick’s path to success?A. He picked up his stunt skills from a stuntman.B. He made it with hard work and great effort.C. His dad offered him great encouragement.D. His dad led him into the movie business.26. When hiring stuntmen, Deadrick _____.A. can’t be too carefulB. prefers the fearless onesC. likes those with no limitationsD. puts experience above all else27. What does Deadrick think of his job?A. Hard and boring.B. Easy and attractive.C. Skilled but relaxing.D. Challenging but exciting.C★★★☆☆Many of the inventions that form part of our everyday lives had their roots right here in the UK. Let’s take a look at some of the most important inventions.The bagless vacuum cleaner (真空吸尘器) James Dyson, 1979There are some things we don’t know we need until someone invents them. Step forward, the bagless vacuum cleaner. James Dyson came up with the idea after spending a lot of money on an expensive cleaner that simply pushed dirt around.Most of us would have left it that, but Dyson went on to change the basic principle of a vacuum cleaner —an idea that hadn’t been challenged for 100 years —by designing a system that removed the necessity of the bag for good. His final version took five years of research.However, when Dyson first approached manufacturers (制造商) with his idea, he couldn’t interest them. But he didn’t give up and set up a factory in Wiltshire in 1993 to produce them himself. Two years later, Dyson products were outselling the competition.The Mini Alec Issigonis, 1959While the Americans were driving supersize Cadillacs, Britain famously went in the opposite direction and came up with a small car.Alec Issigonis was responsible for the design and made a name for himself in motoring history with its launch (投放市场) in 1959 for the British Motor Corporation (BMC). The Mini’s success wasn’t overnight. Many thought it “strange”, but it developed into a love affair with the British that’s never decreased, helped by the fact that many stars loved it.The London sewage system (污水处理系统) Joseph Bazalgette, 1865Like any major city, London has always produced large amounts of waste. Give thanks, then, to Joseph Bazalgette, an engineer who developed a far-reaching underground sewage system. It changed the process of getting rid of waste by dumping it into the Thames River. Even more impressive was his idea to construct pipes that would function for nearly 150 years and still be large enough to meet the need of an increasing population. As he said, “We’re only going to do this once.”28. What do we know about James Dyson and his idea?A. His efforts paid off at last.B. He enjoyed immediate success.C. His idea attracted many manufacturers.D. He set up the first vacuum cleaner factory.29. The Mini won its popularity _____.A. soon after its launch in 1959B. because it was advertised by starsC. with the help of some famous peopleD. because people lost interest in supersize cars30. The underlined sentence “We’re only going to do this once” in the last paragraph shows Bazalgette was _____.A. cautiousB. confidentC. far-sightedD. strong-minded31. What did the three British inventors have in common?A. Their success came after many failures.B. They influenced many other inventors.C. They made their inventions by accident.D. Their inventions changed people’s lives.D★★★☆☆As each semester begins, my colleague greets his students wearing a jacket and tie.“You make only one first impression,” he says. So while the rest of the semester he teaches class in his usual, more casual clothes, the first week he presents a different image.His thought is that students will remember their first meet positively and more readily think highly of him as the semester goes on because that favorable first impression has an influence on them.The sequence (顺序) that we meet matters in how we judge subsequent (后来的) information. The big influence of first impressions is related to the halo effect, where the perception (看法) of positive qualities in one thing or part gives rise to the perception of similar qualities in related things or in the whole.Here is an example: You meet a friendly person at a party and later are asked to collect money for a worthy cause. You call that person because you think she will make a contribution. In reality, there is no connection between being pleasant and being generous. Yet the halo effect leads you to think that the two are related.The halo effect is powerful, but it is questionable whether it matters much in long-term relationships, such as that between teacher and student. While dressing up may make students think the teacher must know his subject matter because he creates a professional first impression, the effect wears thin if the person turns out to be a poor teacher after all.First impressions matter but they don’t have the final word. Facts speak louder. If you had never seen or heard of Einstein, the first time you saw him your impression would most likely be negative. Now his face is connected with genius (天才), not madness because he is the person who has come to define what genius is.The problem is tha t few of us are Einsteins and we often don’t get the chance to change a negative first impression.32. The author explains the halo effect mainly by _____.A. giving an exampleB. making a comparisonC. setting down general rulesD. following the order of importance33. In the author’s eyes, the halo effect _____.A. is surprisingly powerfulB. matters more in the long runC. may affect our judgment of othersD. makes some teachers irresponsible34. The author uses the example of Einstein to show the importance of _____.A. appearanceB. truthC. impressionsD. fairness35. The author seems to advise readers _____.A. to mind their first impressionsB. not to judge a book by its coverC. not to follow others’ judgmentsD. to pay no attention to the halo effect第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Cycle book series，which consists of the books Eragon，Eldest，Brisingr, and Inheritance.Christopher Paolini lives in Paradise Valley，Montana，where he wrote the first book Eragon.Homeschooled by his parents，Paolini graduated from high school at the age of 15，but felt he was not yet mature enough for college，so in his spare time he wrote Eragon.After writing the first draft for a year，he spent a second year rewriting it，and then presented it to his parents.They saw the book's potential and published it in 2001 through their home-based publishing company，Paolini International.Paolini and his family toured across the US to promote the book.Over 135 talks were given at bookshops, libraries, and schools，but the book did not receive much attention.Paolini said，“I would stand behind a table talking all day without a break—and would sell maybe forty books in eight hours if I did really well...It was a very stressful experience.I couldn't have gone on for very much longer.”In the summer of 2002，American novelist Carl Hiaasen was on vacation in one of the cities that Paolini gave a talk in.While there，his stepson bought a copy of Eragon that he “immediately loved”．He showed it to his stepfather，who brought the book to the attention of the publishing house Alfred A．Knopf.Michelle Frey，executive editor at Knopf，contacted Paolini and his family to ask if they were interested in having Knopf publish Eragon.The answer was yes，and Knopf republished Eragon in August 2003, which was followed by Eldest in 2005, Brisingr in 2008, and Inheritance in 2011.36．According to the text，Eragon was________.A．completed in two yearsB．written by Paolini at collegeC．named after a fictional worldD．created in Southern California37．What was the attitude of Paolini's parents towards his efforts to write?A．Amazed. B．Unconcerned.C．Tolerant. D．Supportive.38．Eragon was recommended to Alfred A．Knopf by ________.A．Paolini's fatherB．Carl HiaasenC．Carl Hiaasen's stepsonD．Michelle Frey39．For what purpose is the text mainly written?A．To advertise the book Eragon.B．To show Paolini's personal life.C．To describe the history of Eragon.D．To introduce a series of fantasy novels.BIt is important to diagnose (诊断) cancer as early as possible.Some kinds of cancer, however, are especially hard to spot, including cancer of the head and neck.This is why a study published in The Journal of Cancer Research seems to hold good news for cancer diagnosis.The study shows that a tool called Nano Artificial Nose (or shortened to Na-Nose) is able to detect the breath of patients with the head and neck cancer.In other words，Na-Nose can “smell” the head and neck cancer.Israeli researchers at the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology collected breath samples from volunteers: 22 with various head and neck cancers, 24 with lung cancer，and 36 healthy and cancer-free.The technology of Na-Nose is based on its ability to detect different chemical compounds (混合物) in the breath.The tool is so sensitive that it can tell the difference between people with and without cancer，as well as detecting which patients have the head and neck cancer.The significance of this study is the possibility of detecting these hard-to-diagnose cancers at an earlier stage, leading to quicker treatment.Lead researcher Professor Hossam Haick said, “There's a desperate need to develop new ways to detect the head and neck cancer because diagnosis of the disease is complicated, requiring specialist examinations.We've shown that a simple breath test can spot the patterns of molecules (分子)which are found in head and neck cancer patients in a small，early study.”The Journal of Cancer Research，which published the study，is owned by Cancer Research UK.The charity's head of cancer information, Dr.Lesley Walker，said，“It's important to be clear that this is a small study，at a very early stage，so many more years of research with patients will be needed to see if a breath test could be used in the clinic.”40．The main function of Na-Nose is to________.A．treat various kinds of cancerB．collect the breath of patientsC．check whether people are healthyD．help spot the head and neck cancer41．From what Hossam Haick said we know________.A．Na-Nose is convenient to useB．the breath test is not always effectiveC．the head and neck cancer is a rare diseaseD．cancer researchers are making slow progress42．Lesley Walker seems to think that________.A．Na-Nose will play a great part in people's livesB．the new technology will soon be used in the clinicC．more study about Na-Nose should be conductedD．the head and neck cancer can be cured in the near future43．The main purpose of the text is to________.A．report an important development in cancer researchB．explain why cancer patients'breath is differentC．show the features of the head and neck cancerD．introduce a new way of treating cancerCLet's be honest：If you like to take lots of vacation，the United States is not the place to work.Besides a handful of national holidays，the typical American worker gets two or three precious weeks off out of a whole year to relax and see the world—much less than what people in many other countries receive.Only 57% of the US workers use up all of the days they're entitled (授权) to，compared with 89% of workers in France, a recent research found.So what's going on here？A big reason for the difference is that paid time off is supported by law in many parts of the world.Germany is among more than two dozen industrialized countries—from Australia to Slovenia to Japan—that require employers to offer four weeks or more of paid vacation to their workers，according to a 2009 study by the human resources consulting company Mercer.Finland, Brazil and France are the champions, guaranteeing six weeks of time off.But employers in the United States have no duty under federal law to offer any paid vacation, so about a quarter of all American workers don't have access to it，government figures show.That makes the US the only advanced nation in the world that doesn't guarantee its workers annual leave，according to a report titled “No-Vacation Nation” by the Center for Economic and Policy Research, a liberal policy group.But the fear of layoffs(下岗) and the ever-faster pace of work mean many Americans don't want to be absent from the office—anxious that they might look like they're not willing to workhard.Or they worry they won't be able to deal with the backlog (积压未办之事)of work waiting for them after a vacation.Working more makes Americans happier than Europeans, according to a study published recently in the Journal of Happiness Studies.That may be because Americans believe more than Europeans do that hard work is associated with success, wrote Adam Okulicz-Kozaryn，the study's author and an assistant professor at the University of Texas at Dallas.“Americans increase their happiness by working, and Europeans increase their happiness through vacation，” he found.44．Which of the following countries has the longest paid vacation?A．America. B．Germany.C．Australia. D．France.45．What does the underlined word “it”in Paragraph 3 refer to?A．Federal law. B．Paid vacation.C．Annual leave. D．Long vacation.46．What is the text mainly about?A．Why American workers have fewer vacations.B．The reasons why American workers dislike work.C．How workers in different countries take vacations.D．Why American workers are happier than Europeans.DIn the last two years, we've watched kids on reality TV working like dogs for 14 hours per day，getting yelled at by bad-tempered caretakers and receiving toilet training in front of a national audience.All bad enough.But it wasn't until people saw the bad situations of Falcon Heene, the child who has sadly come to be known as Balloon Boy，that they really paid attention.He was sick on the Today Sho w，which made the entire nation feel sick as lions of us stayed glued to our TVs on October 15, praying and watching the live drama as helicopters and jets flew over Colorado tracking a silver balloon which was thought to be holding 6-year-old Falcon.But in the end we found out that the child had been hiding in the attic(阁楼) of his house.The whole thing was a trick played by Falcon's parents who hoped to get their own reality TV show.“This affair made all of us feel sick，”said reporter Jere Hester on .The national reaction against Falcon's parents has encouraged activists to push for ethical (伦理的) treatment of kids on reality TV.“Now everybody gets it! We cannot keep doing this to kids，”said Paul Petersen，a kid star on The Donna Reed Sho w and now an advocate for kids on TV.His organization, A Minor Consideration, has been trying for years to put an end to the action of making use of children ontelevision.“Children are treated like slaves，”said Petersen，“They don't have freedom.”That's absolutely true, says Dr.Drew Pinsky, host of VHI's Celebrity Rehab.And Petersen says the effects are long-term.“The images of these kids on the potty (便壶)and being angry will open them up to unkind laughter or remarks as they get older.”Protecting children from being made use of by TV shows may finally be an issue for lawmakers.Petersen says no reality shows are filmed in California because the state's child labor laws are the strictest in the country.He would like to see a similar federal law to protect kids.47．Falcon Heene's story told in Paragraph 2 is mainly to________.A．tell us that kids nowadays lack courageB．explain why kids take part in reality TV showsC．prove that reality TV shows are usually not trueD．show that kids on reality TV shows are badly treated48．After watching Falcon Heene's show, activists realized that they must________.A．encourage kids to say no to their parentsB．ask TV producers to be honest with the publicC．try to prevent kids from being hurt by TV showsD．help the public know the challenges facing TV stations49．Paul Petersen would agree that kids on TV shows________.A．may suffer in the futureB．are usually very popular at schoolC．can easily lose their temper in the futureD．are likely to be admired by people around them50．In the author's opinion, reality TV shows involving kids are________.A．boring B．excitingC．reasonable D．unacceptableEIn an effort to save fuel，reduce traffic congestion and encourage greater use of public transportation，police in Central City are enforcing new driving restrictions through the use of specially marked license plates.These restrictions apply to all vehicular traffic within a two-mile radius(半径) of the city center and are effective Monday through Friday.Vehicles with an “A” license plate are considered essential to city services and may travel and park freely in the city center.Police，fire and emergency vehicles are examples of vehicles that would be issued an “A” license plate.Public transportation vehicles such as buses and taxis will be issued a “K” license plate，and they too may travel freely through the city center，though they maynot park anywhere within the city center.Delivery vehicles will be issued a “B”license plate which allows them access to the city center for loading and unloading between 8 and 10 a．m.and 4 to 6 p．m.only.There is no restriction on deliveries over the weekend.Shop and business owners within the city center will be issued a “Q” license plate which allows them access to their place of business；however，parking within the city center must be off-street.Privately-owned vehicles with an “X” license plate may be driven and parked within the city center on Monday，Wednesday and Thursday only.Vehicles issued a “Z” plate may be driven and parked within the city center on Tuesday，Wednesday and Friday only.Central City police are authorized to ticket and arrange for the immediate towing(拖) of vehicles violating these new license regulations.The objective of these changes is to make the city center less congested and more shopper-friendly.51．According to the passage，a package delivery service may deliver medicine to a drugstore in the city center________.A．at any time of dayB．on weekends onlyC．between 8 a．m.and 10 a．m.each dayD．on Monday，Wednesday and Thursday only52．What type of license plate will be issued to Lucy，who owns a clothing store in the city center?A．“Q” license plate.

Our country has been industrialized; our cities have grown and traffic has increased. For these reasons there has come an increase in the number of byproducts released into the air, such as particles from burning fuels and poisonous gases from chemical reactions. These gases become pollutants.Air pollution has a bad effect on the earth and our environment. Air pollution can result in acid rain, and it can also lead to the greenhouse effect-a condition in which pollution stops radiation from traveling out of the earth's atmosphere. Due to the greenhouse effect, the temperature on the earth becomes warmer, which is known as global warming. What's more, air pollution may produce holes in the ozone layer—this layer of ozone naturally keeps ultraviolet rays of the sun from reaching the earth. The holes make it possible for the rays to reach us.Don't let all the bad news about air pollution get you down because there are many ways to help fight the air pollution. Every one of us can employ a variety of solutions to air pollution. A smoker can give up smoking. While shopping, you can choose organic and natural products. Driving less and carpooling more can also contribute to less pollution. Next time , keep your air conditioning low. Of course you can plant more trees.Air pollution is a major problem for our planet. However, as long as we realize how serious the air pollution is and take action now, everyone can make a difference.Title: Air(56)________(57)________ Industrialization, the (58)________ of cities and the increase intrafficBad effectsIt leads to (59)________rain.It causes the greenhouse effect, thus (60)________the earth.It may produce holes in the ozone layer.(61)________We should ban (62)________．While shopping, choose organic and natural products.We should drive less and (63)________more.We should keep air conditioning low and plant more trees.(64)________ As long as we take it (65)________ and take action now, we cansolve it.Ⅴ.书面表达(满分25分)2011年10月31日是世界人口70亿人口日。

The problems started in the 16th century when English rulers tried to conquer (征服) Ireland. For hundreds of years, the Irish people fought against the English. Finally, in 1921, the British government was forced to give independence to the south of Ireland. The result is that today there are two “Irelands”. Northern Ireland, in the north, is part of the United Kingdom. The Republic of Ireland, in the south, is an independent country.In the 1840s the main crop, potatoes, was affected by disease and about 750,000 people died of hunger. This, and a shortage (短缺) of work, forced many people to leave Ireland and live in the USA, the UK, Australia and Canada. As a result of these problems, the population fell from 8.2 million in 1841 to 6.6 million in 1851.For many years, the majority of Irish people earned their living as farmers. Today, many people still work on the land but more and more people are moving to the cities to work in factories and offices. Life in the cities is very different from life in the countryside, where things move at a quieter and slower pace.The Irish are famous for being warmhearted and friendly. Oscar Wilde, a famous Irish writer,once said that the Irish were “the greatest talkers since the Greeks”. Since independence, Ireland has revived (复兴) its own culture of music, language, literature and singing. Different areas have different styles of old Irish songs which are sung without instruments. Other kinds of Irish music use many different instruments such as the violin, whistles, etc.5．What does the author tell us in Paragraph 1?A．How the Irish fought against the English.B．How Ireland gained independence.C．How English rulers tried to conquer Ireland.D．How two “Irelands” came into being.6．We learn from the text that in Ireland________.A．food shortages in the 1840s led to a decline in populationB．people are moving to the cities for lack of work in the countrysideC．it is harder to make a living as a farmer than as a factory workerD．different kinds of old Irish songs are all sung with instruments7．What can be the best title for the text?A．Life in IrelandB．A Very Difficult HistoryC．Ireland, Past and PresentD．The Independence of IrelandCOn March 30, 1867, the United States signed a treaty (条约) to buy what would later become its largest state. U．S. Secretary of State William Seward agreed to pay D|S7.2 million to Russia for Alaska.Russia had established permanent settlements in Alaska beginning in the late 1700s. (At the time, the area was already home to tens of thousands of native Alaskans.) But after losing an expensive war with England and France in the 1850s, Russia badly needed money. Its leadersturned to the U．S. to sell the territory (领土), and Seward was eager to buy. He thought that having a huge territory along the northern Pacific Ocean would make it easier for the U．S. to trade with countries in Asia. Though much of Alaska was unexplored, Seward believed it had abundant resources that could lead to a boom in the fur trade, fishing, and other industries.The Alaska Purchase was approved quickly by the U．S. Senate (参议院) and signed by President Andrew Johnson.Despite the bargain price of roughly two cents an acre, the Alaska Purchase was ridiculed in Congress (国会) and in the press as “Seward’s folly”. Critics believed the land was worthless — nothing more than snow and ice.But any question about Alaska’s value was forgotten after several major discoveries of gold during the 1880s and 1890s. As word spread, an estimated 100,000 people flocked there, hoping to strike it rich. It made critics change their tune. Unfortunately, Seward never got to see his decision acknowledged for the great accomplishment it was, as he passed away in 1872, before the gold reserves had been found. Today, “Seward’s Day” is celebrated in Alaska on the last Monday of March each year, in honor of Seward’s purchasing the Alaskan territory from Russia.Nowadays, Alaska is still recognized for its wealth of natural resources. Two of its biggest industries are oil and fishing. Alaska has also turned into a tourist destination for people who love the outdoors. Each year, nearly 2 million people visit Alaska to see its scenic national parks and abundant wildlife.8．Why did Russia sell Alaska?A．The U．S. made a very high bid.B．Because of its preparations for war.C．Because of the history of native Alaskans.D．Russia was suffering from financial problems.9．Which can best replace the underlined word “folly” in Paragraph 4?A．Illegal trade.B．Smart idea.C．Stupid act. D．Fair deal.10．It was proved that Seward ________.A．was hotheaded B．was farsightedC．made a huge mistake D．made a great sacrifice11．What is the last paragraph mainly about?A．Alaska’s culture.B．Alaska’s economy.C．Alaska’s land ownership.D．Alaska’s climate and wildlife.DAlthough fires are still a danger in every major city today, they were a much more serious problem in earlier centuries. The historic Fire of London was a serious example of the damage fire can cause. Finally, however, this disaster also positively affected the city.In 1666, the Great Fire of London burned out of control for three days, destroying most of the central district of the city. The disaster caused a huge amount of damage — around seventy thousand people lost their homes. At the time, there were only about eighty thousand living in the city. There are no accurate records of how many people died in the fire because the worst damage happened in poor neighborhoods. Unfortunately, the government didn’t record the deaths of poor people in those early times.When the fire happened, people in London were already struggling to survive a large plague (瘟疫) outbreak that had begun in 1665. London’s housing troubles were a major cause of the problem. At the time, much of central London consisted of closely packed and poorly made wooden buildings. This created an unhealthy environment because germs travelled freely from home to home. In addition, the buildings were on narrow, dirty streets where people threw their garbage. Rats were attracted by the garbage, and they brought fleas (跳蚤) — the carriers of the plague. Once people caught the plague from flea bites, the disease spread rapidly throughout the city especially in the cramped central district. It was in these terrible conditions that the Great Fire raged through London.Despite the damage, the fire had a positive effect because it destroyed the old, poorly made wooden buildings. It also killed most of the rats and fleas, which slowed the spread of the plague. After the fire, the government rebuilt the damaged areas. Whenever possible, they used brick or stone. Thus, the new houses were much more solid and more difficult for rats to enter. Widened streets and improved garbage collection also helped to stop the disease from spreading from person to person because there was simply more room to walk.12．Which of the following is TRUE about fires in the past?A．They mainly happened in large cities.B．They always had some positive effects.C．They caused small amounts of damage.D．They were more dangerous than fires today.13．Why are there no accurate death records of the fire?A．The numbers were beyond counting.B．The government intended to hide the facts.C．The records were destroyed in another fire.D．The deaths of poor people were unrecorded.14．What does the underlined word “cramped” in Paragraph 3 mean?A．Ancient. B．Crowded.C．Damaged. D．Popular.15．Why did the government rebuild the city with brick and stone after the fire?A．To reduce building costs.B．To make houses stronger.C．To keep fleas out of the city.D．To stop the plague spreading.第二节：.阅读七选五（共5小题，每小题2分，共10分）Breaking bad reading habitsAre you eager to become a faster reader? Reading faster isn’t about finishing books without comprehension or enjoyment. __16__ To do so, you need to change some bad reading habits.Avoid sounding out the words in your head. Many people sound out the words as they read — either by moving their lips or hearing the words in their head. __17__ This is because it onlyallows you to read the words as fast as you can say them, which isn’t very fast at all.__18__ Another common practice which slows down reading speed hugely is the practice of reading each individual word separately. Instead, you should try to read in chunks (语块)．Overcome inefficient eye movement. When children learn how to read, they are taught to look at each word individually before moving onto the next. __19__ Therefore, this practice makes reading a lot less efficient.Avoid distractions.Many people are slow readers simply because they often read in an inappropriate environment. If you want to read quickly and absorb the material in front of you, you need to avoid all kinds of distractions. Don’t try to read in a loud environment. __20__ Read in a quiet, peaceful environment where reading is your only focus.A．Avoid reading word by word.B．Don’t read the same sentence two or three times.C．It won’t improve your understanding of the material.D．Otherwise, you’ll find yourself getting distracted and rereading paragraphs. E．However, your eyes are able to take in much more than a single word at a time.F．It’s about learning to pick up the speed and still take in the information in an enjoyable way.G．Although it is an effective way of teaching kids how to read, it is not beneficial to reading faster.第二部分：语言知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节（共20小题，每小题1.5分，满分30分）I will never forget one summer in my childhood．While walking in the attic (阁楼), I stepped on something and __21__down, with my hand landing on a floorboard that popped up and almost hit my head．When I __22__ and looked inside the open space, I could not believe my eyes: There was gold in there! I __23__ a handful of shining gold cubes, ran to the bottom stair and __24__，“Mama, I found gold up there under the floor！”Back up the stairs I dashed, __25__ my brothers almost knocked me down as they ran right by me．When Mama opened the door and __26__ her head in, she __27__ said,“Honey, that’s insulation (隔热材料)．Now put it all back．”I felt really disappointed．I had thought I made a real __28__．When I __29__ inside to put the fake gold back, my hand touched what felt like a book．I pulled it out．It was old and small: Bartlett’s Familiar Quotations, which I’d never heard of．And __30__ I was bored, I decided to see what was inside this little book．To my __31__，it was a book of passages, phrases and proverbs, and I could tell that this was going to be __32__．So I spent quite much time on it and found __33__ in these pages．As I didn’t know how to express things clearly, I often __34__ to talk about them．This book helped me __35__ that I didn’t need to feel ashamed or __36__，because other people had similar experiences．When I went to college, Bartlett’s Familiar Quotations came with me．Over the years, I’ve kept my original __37__，which to this day I often __38__．Although it was a __39__ to find the book, it liberated me in a way．It helped me see more than my young mind and heart were able to understand．The book discovered under those floorboards was, __40__，gold．21．A．slowed B．calmedC．looked D．fell22．A．bent over B．showed upC．lay down D．broke in23．A．stole B．producedC．seized D．hid24．A．yelled B．sighedC．admitted D．complained25．A．or B．soC．but D．for26．A．nodded B．stuckC．lowered D．lifted27．A．simply B．thoughtfully C．honestly D．angrily 28．A．difference B．choice C．mistake D．discovery 29．A．sat B．slid C．reached D．walked 30．A．until B．now that C．unless D．so that 31．A．surprise B．regret C．relief D．disappointment 32．A．absurd B．controversial C．boring D．interesting 33．A．sympathy B．comfort C．honor D．doubt 34．A．tended B．offered C．managed D．hesitated 35．A．expect B．remember C．realize D．imagine 36．A．embarrassed B．satisfied C．astonished D．tired 37．A．mind B．copy C．plan D．file 38．A．put away B．show offC．refer to D．pick up39．A．dilemma B．disasterC．pity D．coincidence40．A．still B．indeedC．normally D．hopefully第二节.语法填空（共10小题，每小题1.5分，满分15分）Whenever Prince George steps out for an engagement, like on the royal tour of Canada, or poses for __41__(office) photographs, he only ever wears shorts, __42__ has long confused royal watchers．According to William Hanson, __43__ expert in ceremony, there’s a very good reason for this — and it has nothing to do __44__ fashion, but rather a royal tradition that __45___(date) back to the sixteenth century．A new born baby would __46___(dress) in a gown for his first year or two．Then he was “breeched (穿裤礼)” and wore articles of clothing like shorts．The usual custom is that a boy graduates to trousers around eight years old．With times__47__(change), middleclass boys began to wear trousers but they are considered suburban (呆板的) by the upper．Hanson explains, “ __48__ is a very English thing to dress a young boy in shorts．” The British upper are always keen to hold on to the tradition, and this also __49__(silent) marks them out from “the rest”．However, as for William and Kate, the __50__(decide) to dress George in shorts is more likely down to the tradition than a class issue．第三部分写作（共两节，满分35分）第一节短文改错（共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分）假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文, 请你修改你同桌写的以下作文．文中共有10处语言错误, 每句中最多有两处错误仅涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改．增加：在缺词处加一个漏字符号(), 并在其下面写出该加的词．删除：把多余的词用(＼)划掉．修改：在错的词下画一横线, 并在该词下面写出修改后的词．Last week, my friends and I spend our last day of freedom at a new indoor ski slope before school started again. When we arrived there, we went to get boot and skis and then went onto the snow. I was ski down the slope fast when suddenly a man who came out of nowhere just in front of me. I couldn’t change direction or I hit him and went flying through the air. When I came back down, I knew straight away that his knee was serious hurt. They sent me hospital and I needed a operation on my knee. I regretted it. If I’d known it was going to be so a bad day, I probably would have stayed in bed.第二节书面表达（满分25分）假如你是李华，由于高考临近，你的好友王平感到前所未有的焦虑和压力。

One example is ＂clicktivism＂, a compound of ＂click＂and ＂activism＂. It refers to ＂armchair activists＂— people who support a political or social cause, but only show their support from behind a computer or smartphone. And ＂otherize＂is a verb for ＂other＂that means to alienate (使疏远)people who are different from ourselves — whether that be different skin color, religious belief or sexuality.Lifestyle is also changing our language. For example, ＂fitspiration＂— a compound of fit and inspiration —refers to a person or thing that encourages one to exercise and stay fit and healthy.The phrase ＂climate refugee＂— someone who is forced to leave their home due to climate change—reflects people's concern for the environment.According to Stevenson, social media was the main source for the new expressions. ＂People feel much freer to coin their own words these days,＂he said.But still, not all newly-invented words get the chance to make their way into a mainstream (主流的) dictionary. If you want to create your own hit words, Angus Stevenson, Oxford Dictionaries head of content development, suggests that you should not only make sure that they are expressive (有表现力的) and meaningful, but also have an attractive sound so that people will enjoy saying them out loud.（1）What is the article mainly about?A. Some new word that got included into the online Oxford Dictionary.B. The application of new words and phrases.C. How a language mirrors the changing world.D. The impact of social media on our language.（2）The underlined word ＂coin＂in the second-to-last paragraph probably means .A. useB. recordC. changeD. create（3）How is the article mainly written?A. By giving examples.B. By making comparisons.C. By following a timeline.D. By presenting research findings.（4）According to Stevenson, to make the words you invent popular, they should .A. be easy to rememberB. have unique meaningsC. reflect the changing worldD. be meaningful, expressive and catchyBA glass a day keeps obesity at bay. Wine has always been thought to cause weight gain because of its high sugar content, but new research suggests a glass a day could form part of a diet. Looking at past studies they found that, while heavy drinkers do put on weight, those who drink in moderation can actually lose weight.A scientist for the research team at Navarro University in Spain says, “Proper drinking may be more likely to protect against, rather than promote, weight gain.” An official organization reviewed the findings and agreed with most of the conclusions, particularly that present data do not clearly show if proper drinking increases weight.Boston University's Dr. Harvey Finkel found that the reasons relating alcohol (酒精) to changes in body weight are not properly understood. His team pointed out the strong protective effects (效果) of proper drinking on the risk of getting conditions like diabetes (糖尿病), which relate to increasing obesity. Some studies suggest that even very fat people may be at lower risk of diabetes if they are moderate drinkers.The group says alcohol provides energy that is quickly absorbed into the body and is not stored in fat, and that this process could explain the differences in its effects from those of other foods. They agree that future research should be directed towards assessing the roles of different types of alcoholic drinks, taking drinking patterns into consideration.For now there is little evidence that drinking small to moderate amounts of alcohol on a regular basis increases one's risk of becoming too fat. What's more, a study three years ago suggested that a chemical found in grapes and red wine, destroys fat cells.（1）Who is the passage intended for?A. Those who sell alcohol.B. Those who produce wine.C. Those who have a drinking habit.D. Those who wish to quit drinking.（2）What does the ph rase “in moderation” in the first paragraph refer to?A. Excitedly.B. Carefully.C. Properly.D. Frequently.（3）What can we learn from the passage?A. A chemical found in grapes increases the risk of becoming fat.B. The specific roles of different types of alcoholic drinks are clear.C. Present data clearly show that moderate drinking increases weight.D. The research found proper drinking has a strong protective effect.（4）What is most likely to be discussed in the paragraph that follows?A. How to do some easy experiments.B. How to make wine in a healthy way.C. How to prove the finding mentioned above.D. How to reduce the calories contained in wine.三、改错题假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。

Unit 2 The United Kingdom单元检测Ⅰ.阅读理解AMore than a decade after they first met on Mount Bamian in western Hunan province, a photographer from Shenzhen, has kept his promise of finding funding for a young woman whose arms were amputated(截肢) as a child.Chen Yongheng has taken about 5,000 photos of Xiang Liping, who he first met when she was 13 in December 2002. She appeared on a hillside as he was coming down the mountain, followed by two other children, carrying large bundles(捆) of straw on their backs. Intrigued by the sight, Chen raised his camera to take a picture of the three —but it was then that he noticed the sleeves of the girl in red blowing in the wind. He approached and touched the girl's sleeves, only to discover there were no arms inside.After returning home and reviewing his photographs, Chen decided he had to find the girl again. Chen finally found the girl one year later. He learned that she touched an exposed electrical wire when she was only 4 and had to have both her arms amputated. It was then that an idea occurred to him —hand in his pictures of Xiang to the World Press Photo Contest, which offers a 10,000 euro ($11,080) top prize. From 2003 to 2013, Chen visited the family and took photos of Xiang every year. He entered the contest every year, but every time he failed to win the top prize. That was until December last year, when his pictures caught the attention of journalists at a photo exhibition. After the photos were published online in June, 2016, they were viewed more than 100 million times and attracted more than 80,000 comments. With the support of the China Social Assistance Foundation, more than 300,000 yuan was donated to Xiang. "She now has more confidence and told me over phone that she wants to open an online store," Chen said.1.

ADo you think Great Britain and the United States are alike？Winston Churchill once joked that the people of Britain and the people of America are separated(分离的)only by their language. Do you think that is true？The British and the Americans both speak English as the official language. However，each uses some different words. We Americans are similar to the Britain. After all，our country was once owned by Great Britain，so we have a lot in common. But there are many differences between us.Great Britain has a king or queen，and the leader of the government is the Prime Minister.The United States has no kings or queens.Our leader is the President.Both the British and Americans use pounds and ounces，pints，quarts，and gallons. Both use miles，yards，and feet. Our money is different，though. The British use pounds and pence. Americans use dollars and cents.Driving in a car is very different in England. They drive on the left side of the road. We drive on the right. What we call the hood of the car，the British call the “bonnet”．British cars run on “petrol”，which we call gasoline.In our everyday lives，we do many of the same things as the British.But we describe them differently.A young mother here might push a baby in a baby carriage.A British mom pushes a“pram”．The British watch the“telly”，while we watch TV.We like to eat French fries，but the British call them “chips”．Millions of Americans drink coffee，but most British prefer tea.So we are different in many ways.But we stay friendly anyway.1．Winston Churchill's words mean that________.A．Britain and the US are very similarB．the people of Britain and the US are friendlyC．the languages of Britain and the US are the sameD．there are many differences between Britain and the US2．The British and Americans both use________.A．miles and dollars B．pints and penceC．gallons and feet D．yards and cents3．Which of the following is used by the British?A．TV.B．Pram.C．Hood.

作者在文中主要介绍了英国和美国在语言使用方面的一些异同。
B项以反问的形式表达了“英美语言有差异”之意，形象、准确地概括了本文的主要内容，作为标题很贴切。
A、C两项片面；D项太泛，且未涵盖“相同之处”。
BQuestion：I'd like to know about fluency.What can I do to feel better when I'm talking to other people？Do you have some ways to learn it faster？Please help me!——Roberto in BrazilAnswer：Roberto wants to know how to become more fluent in English，and this is something you want to be able to do “fast”．First，if you get to meet English speakers much，the important rule is to listen not just to native speakers of English，but also to very good users of English.If you don't，then listen to the radio，TV or films in English.The next step is to notice what it is that speakers of English do，which makes them sound fluent.The first trick(诀窍)is to probably have confidence.Some people think they might make mistakes.Don't worry about that.Your listeners will usually try hard to understand you—a few grammar mistakes aren't going to worry them.What you do need to worry about is pronunciation，especially stress(重音)．When you learn a new word or expression，learn it with its stress.Notice how a native speaker says it or look it up in a dictionary.Another good thing that speakers of English do is to_have_a_few_tricks_up_their_sleeves(袖子)for when they need to give themselves thinking time. Sometimes they use “filler sounds” like er，um and so on.It is also useful to know how to bring other speakers into your conversation so that you keep them interested—and this is often done by asking questions like“What do you think？”“How do you feel about this？”and so on.So，to become a fluent speaker，you'll need to put into practice all these kinds of things.And there's the key：practise，practise，practise.—Susan Fearn5．Roberto wants to know how to________.A．learn EnglishB．speak English fluentlyC．talk to other peopleD．become confident6．When mentioning pronunciation，Susan pays special attention to________.A．stress B．expressionsC．dictionaries D．words7．What do the underlined words“to have a few tricks up their sleeves”pr obably mean?A．To wear a lot of clothes.B．To have a secret plan or idea.C．To hide some tricks into their sleeves.D．To have sleeves covering their whole arms.8．What do we know from the passage?A．One can only learn stress from dictionaries.B．Grammar mistakes worry one's listeners a Int.C．Asking questions can make one's conversation attractive.D．One can become fluent if one practises one of the suggestions.语篇解读：每个学习英语的人都渴望知道怎样把英语说得很流利，本文就此介绍了几条好的建议。
