2023版新教材高考英语一轮总复习:UNIT 3 单元主题训练Ⅰ.阅读理解ANational Space Centre, LeicesterAn interactive museum of super-size space experiences: from a giant planet Earth you can touch to the UK's biggest domed planetarium (穹顶天文台) and a 42-metre rocket tower. You can't miss the latter as you drive into Leicester — the structure looks like it's wrapped in giant inflatable pillows. Inside, it houses Blue Streak and Thor Able rockets. Take in the full scale of them by riding a glass-sided lift up to the viewing platform. Elsewhere, there are six galleries with plenty of buttons to press and screens to touch. It's all under cover so it's a good place to visit on a rainy day!What about lunch?The Boosters Cafe serves reasonably priced hot and cold snacks and drinks (hot dog from £4.95, plus jacket potatoes, soups, sandwiches and salads) at the foot of the centre's two rockets. The cafe offers vegetarian and vegan options too.Getting thereThere is a regular bus service (No.54 with a stop two minutes' walk from the centre), as well as a park and ride service from Birstall. East Midlands Trains and Cross-Country Trains operate services to Leicester station, from which the centre is a 25-minute bus ride. If driving, it's just off the A6, north of the city centre. Parking is £3 for the day.Value for moneyIt's not cheap — adult: £15, 5 to 16-year-old: £12, but once you've paid you can revisit as many times as you want in a year, and admission is free for kids under five.Opening hours10 a.m.-4 p.m. Monday to Friday, 10 a.m.-5 p.m. weekends and school holidays.语篇解读:本文是一篇应用文。
必修第三册UNIT3Ⅰ.阅读理解AThewaywedothingsroundhereSome years ago,I was hired by an American bank.I received a letter from the head of the Personnel Department thatstarted,“Dear John,I am quite pleased that you have decided to join us.” That “quite” saddened me.I thought he was saying “we’re kind of pleased you decided to join us although I wish we had hired someone else.” Then I discovered that in American English “quite” sometimes means “very”,while in British English it means “fairly”.So the first lesson about working in other countries is to learn the language and by that I don’t just mean the words people speak.It is body language,dress,manners,ideas and so on.The way people do things highlights many of the differences we see between cultures.Some of these differences may be only on thesurface—dress,food and hours of work—while others may be deeperand take longer to deal with.Mostly,it is just a question of getting used to the differences and accepting them,like the climate,while getting on with business.Some of the differences may be an improvement.People are more polite;the service is better;you ask for something to be done and it happens without having to ask again.However,other differences can be troubling,like punctuality.If you invite people to a party at 7 o’clock,your guests will consider it polite to turn up ee in Germany,five minutes early in the American Midwest,an hour early in Japan,15 minutes afterwards in the UK,up to an hour afterwards in Italy and some time in the evening in Greece.I prefer not to use the word “late” because there is nothing wrong with the times people arrive.It is simply the accepted thing to do in their own country.1.The author was unhappy as mentioned in paragraph 1 because he thought .A.the American bank didn’t think much of himB.the American bank might hire another personC.it’s difficult to get used to American cultureD.it’s easy to misunderstand Americans2.The word “highlights” in paragr aph 2 probably means .A.encouragesB.helps to narrowC.increasesD.draws attention to3.According to the author,what should we do with most cultural differences?A.Ask the native people for help.B.Understand and accept them.C.Do things in our own way.D.Do in-depth research.4.When invited to a party the people who are usually punctual are .A.ItaliansB.GermansC.GreeksD.the BritishB(河南洛阳二模)Song Lam,or Waiata to some of her New Zealand Maori friends,argues that Mandarin and Maori have much incommon,particularly the five vowels which sound the same in both languages.And the mythological figure Maui of Maori legend has a Chinese “twin brother”,the Monkey King.Both could turn themselves into any shape or figure at any time.Some academics claim that one of the native tribes in Taiwan,China speaks a language similar to Maori,notably in the naming of numbers.Evidence gleaned by archaeologists(考古学家) shows an ancient link between the peoples of Australasia and Taiwan,with the native language of Taiwan having similarities to the prehistoric Australasian language.Confused by Maori place names and customs when she first moved to New Zealand,Song Lam spent eight years researching and three years writing her book,TheMaoriofNewZealand,which is believed to be the first Chinese-language publication to include Maori words,values and customs.The 120-page book,including 10 pages ofphotos and maps,describes Maori legends,traditions,history and folk tales.Song Lam was inspired to write the book in 1990 when she tried to sign up for an education course in New Zealand and was asked for her comments on a local historical event,which she knew nothing about.She involved her two sons in her project and research after e the stories behind Maori place names.The younger boy,aged 10,used his skill at drawing to contribute a historic map of Maori tribes in New Zealand.“Both Chinese and Maori like to present a gift when visiting others or receiving a warm reception,” Lam says.“My book will bea good gift when I visit a Maori community.”5.According to Song Lam,what do Mandarin and Maori have in common?A.Fairy tales of the same character.B.Confusing place names and customs.C.Similar pronunciation of vowels.D.The magic power of the Monkey King.6.What does the underlined word “gleaned” in paragraph 2 probably mean?A.Controlled.B.Gathered.C.Grown.D.Switched.7.Why is Song Lam’s younger son mentioned in paragraph 4?A.To tell his curiosity about Maori.B.To prove his unique talent in painting.C.To stress the importance of education.D.To show his help with the publication.8.What is the best title for the text?A.Cultures Share Language BondB.The First Book about MaoriC.Adaptation to Life in New Zealandnguages Bridge MisunderstandingⅡ.七选五(湖南长沙雅礼中学一模)It can be very easy to stick with what you know,instead of trying to meet people who are different from you. 1 Here’s what you can do:Become self-aware. 2 This includes biases about your own cultural background.It can be confronting,but by doing this you’ll be able to think about how these traits might impact on your approach to and understanding of differences.You could try:Think about what assumptions you make about your friends,peers,and people you work with.Talk to someone from a different cultural background.Try and get to know someone from a different cultural background better.3 You’ll automatically find out more about their life and experiences.Just being curious and open-minded can be helpful.Be more accepting.Sometimes,for one reason or another,it’s not all that easy to understand some cultural differences. 4 In other words,you don’t have to understand,or even agree with someone in order to accept them.5 One of the biggest difficulties to overcome in understanding cultural differences is making judgments based on one opinion.You should do some research to actually learn about people,instead of making broad-brush assessments.Stereotyping(模式化) people from different cultural backgrounds can impact their quality of life and opportunities.A.Do your own research.B.Think beyond stereotypes.C.Practice being sympathetic towards people.D.Work out your own beliefs,values and personal biases.E.Instead of asking them questions directly,treat them as friends.F.And the best approach is to acknowledge people are different and to accept that’s okay.G.However,trying to understand people from other countries can help you eore.Ⅲ.语法填空(安徽合肥二模)China is known as a state of etiquette(礼仪) and ceremonies.Take the example of an interesting story.Once upon a time,a man went on a long tour 1. (visit) his friend with a swan as a gift.But it escaped from the cage on the way and in his effort to catch it,he caught nothing but a feather.When his friend received this unexpected gift—the swan feather,he was 2.

必修第三册Unit3Ⅰ.阅读理解A(原创预测题)For decades,the smart home has been a mainstay in pop culture,from Disney’s 1999 flick SmartHouse,in which an artificially intelligent home takes on the personality of a mother,to the retro high-tech home of TheJetsons.Now,we’ve got their smart watches and digital assistants.In our homes,devices like smart doorbells identify friends or strangers at the door,while smart lights can be programmed to shift their colors based on weather.When we plan meals for the week,a smart refrigerator photographs what’s left in the fridge and makes suggestions based on our diets.We could see a future in which electronics exist everywhere,interconnected and responsive parts of our homes,and we’re on the point of making this vision a realit y.The ebient technology promises innovative,easily-used electronics that fadeinto the background sound of our lives.“Soon,you’re going to have systems that will be proactive,” said Joseph Paradiso,a professor at MIT.Our devices are “going to see and hear as we do,and they’re going to be suggesting and prompting”.But all of this innovation could come at a cost:Our privacy.And in the current situation,it’s a price consumers may be unwilling to pay.These fears aren’t entirely unfounded.Massive breaches to major websites have compromised the data of hundreds of millions of people in the past few years,and the comprehensive data ambient technology relies on will include far more than our addresses and credit card numbers.The digital assistant that will be able to identify when you’ll be most attentive for a Spanish lesson—a function that Paradiso said is being heavily researched—will have the type of information that could be used to control you.Identifying these problems will become crucial as more people opt in to giving their tasks to ambient technology.In a world with billions and billions of connected devices that learn us in detail to make our lives more efficient,it will be harder to opt out.1.How is the second paragraph developed?A.By making a comparison.B.By analyzing causes.C.By giving examples.D.By following the order of time.2.What is the third paragraph about?A.The side effects of electronics on daily life.B.The electronic life in future.C.The reasons for the prevalence of the smart home.D.The risk of information disclosure on the Internet.3.What does the underlined word “compromised” in paragraph 4 mean?A.Endangered.B.Updated.C.Rearranged.D.Deleted.4.In which section of a website may this teent.
