When things happen at such a 1 pace, it is easy to lose sight of what you are learning. It is important to 2 every now and then to think about what you've been learning.Self-reflection means stopping the mad rush and 3 yourself so your brain can evaluate what it has already 4 . Some people prefer to do their self reflections5 , while others keep a journal. Either method can work, depending on what your own personal6 is.School textbooks are often divided into units. This can make it 7 for someone to begin the process of self-reflection. Watch for the times when you complete a unit of study. Sometimes you are reminded that the unit is 8 because there is some kind of test or quiz. Use these natural 9 as opportunities to stop and reflect.You should find a 10 place—anywhere without noise is OK. This can even be sitting at your desk at school when you finish something 11 and the other students are still working. If you are going to take notes, take out your journal. Write down some notes on things that you 12 learned in this unit. Let your mind think about the notes you have written and make some 13 .Sometimes just pausing to think deeply allows your brain to make connections 14 new information can quickly appear when you 15 it again. Next, think about things that you still wonder about. 16 maybe you learned about a certain body system, but you don't 17 how it works with the other body systems. Maybe you learned a new way to solve a math problem, but you're not sure when to use it.

While I was right about that, I discovered there are lots of other psychological factors that make people laugh other than the funny part of a joke. When someone laughs at a joke, there will usuallybe more than one reason that makes him laugh—and the more reasons there are, the more powerful the joke will be.I was attending a stand-up comedy show in Egypt, and when the man started to make fun of pedestrians crossing streets, everyone laughed their hearts out. The main reason those people strongly laughed was that almost all of them felt angry towards pedestrians who crossed streets carelessly. The joke wasn't only funny, it also made the audience feel that they were right about being angry at those pedestrians. That is, people were laughing both because of the funny joke and because of the happiness experienced as a result of the psychological support they got.The better a joke makes a person feel, and the more it includes other psychological factors, the more the person will like it. For example, if you envy one of your friends, and someone tells a joke that is funny and, at the same time, makes your friend seem stupid, then you will probably laugh at it louder than if you weren't jealous of him.In short, we don't laugh only when we hear something funny; we also laugh when we experience some kind of happiness that results from the other psychological factors involved in the joke. I strongly discourage making fun of anyone or belittling someone to make someone else laugh. All I want to explain is that if your joke supports a person's emotions, he will certainly like it a lot. (1)What did the author find out after studying psychology?()A. Only good jokes make people laughB. Many factors lead to people laughing.C. Funny things can make people laughD. Laughter can make people healthy.(2)Why did the audience laugh loud at the pedestrians? ()A. They played a trick on the pedestrians.B. The pedestrians behaved in a funny way.C. They could feel the pedestrians' happiness.D. Their emotion was approved of by the show. (3)What does the underlined word “belittling” probably mean? ()A. AnnoyB. BlameC. Look down onD. Make up to(二)The Crowne Plaza Hotel in Copenhagen is offering a free meal to any guest who is able to produce electricity for the hotel on an exercise bike linked to a generator (发电机). The idea is to get people fit and reduce their carbon footprint. Guests will have to produce at least 10 watt hoursof electricity — roughly 15 minutes of cycling for someone of average fitness. Guests staying at Plaza Hotel will be given meal tickets worth $ 36 once they have produced 10 watt hours of electricity. The bicycles will have smart phones attached to the handlebars measuring how much power is being generated for the hotel.The plan, a world-first, will start on 19 April and run for a year. Only guests staying at the hotel will be able to take part. Frederikke Toemmergaard,hotel spokeswoman, said, “Many of our visitors are business people who enjoy going to the gym. There might be people who will cycle just to g et a free meal, but generally I don't think people will take advantage of our programme.”Copenhagen has a long-standing cycling tradition and 36 % of locals cycle to work each day, one of the highest percentages in the world, according to the website visitcopenhagen. dk. US environmental website treehugger. com recently voted Copenhagen the world's best city for cyclists. “Because Copenhagen is strongly connected with cycling, we felt the bicycle would work well as a symbol of the hotel's green profile (形象).”If successful,the electric bicycle meal programme will be spread to all Crowne Plaza hotels in the UK, the hotel said in a statement.(1)What is the main purpose of the free meal programme? ()A. To promote the hotel's green concept.B. To make the city known to the world.C. To attract people to the hotel restaurant.D. To get guests to stay longer at the hotel.(2)How can a participant get a free meal?()A. By becoming a professional cyclist.B. By cycling to produce some electricity.C. By linking a smart phone to a bicycle.D. By monitoring his or her carbon footprint. (3)Who are most likely to enter for the programme? ()A. The poor local people.B. The environment activists.C. Health-conscious hotel guests.D. Visitors fond of Copenhagen food.(4)According to Paragraph 3, Copenhagen has one of the world's .A. best chain hotelsB. greenest natural environmentsC. longest bike pathsD. highest rates of people cycling to work四、任务型阅读(共5分)Eating together as a family is a rare thing these days________.Once I start my own family, I'll definitely do anything possible to establish a tradition of eating together as a family.

选修七 Unit 3 Under the sea单元测试A第一部分阅读理解(共两节;满分30分)第一节(共10小题;每小题2分,满分20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。
AIf you travel to a new exhibit at the San Francisco Greenhouse of Flowers, you will have a chance to see some meat-eating plants. Take bladderworts, a kind of such plant, for example. They appear so small and grow in a quiet pool. But these are the fastestknown killers of the plant kingdom, able to catch a small insect in 1/50 of a second using a trap (陷阱) door!Once the trap door closes on the animal falling into it, the enzymes (酶) similar to those in the human stomach slowly digest the insect. When dinner is over, the plant opens the trap door and is ready for trap again.Meateating plants grow mostly in wet areas with soil that doesn't offer much food value. In such conditions, these amazing plants have developed insect traps to get their nutritional (营养) needs over thousands of years. North America has more such plants than any other continent.Generally speaking, the traps may have attractive appearance to fool the eye, like pitcher plants, which get their name because they look like beautiful pitchers( a container like a bottle) full of honey.The Asian pitcher plant, for example, has bright colors and an attractive half-closed cover. Curious insects are attracted to come close and take a drink, then fall down the slippery wall to their deaths.Some of these pitchers are large enough to hold two gallons(7.5 liters). Meat-eating plants only eat people in science movies, but sometimes a bird or other small animals will discover that a pitcher plant isn't a good place to get a drink.1.From Paragraph 1, we can know that meateating plants can ________.A. catch 50 small insects in a secondB. catch an insect in the shortest timeC. be found floating on a quiet lakeD. notice an insect in 1/50 of a second2.What does it mean if the trap door of a meateating plant is closed?A. The plant is fooling insects into taking a drink.B. The plant is producing honey.C. The plant is attracting insects to come close.D. The plant is enjoying a dinner.3.Meateating plants can grow in wet and poor soil because they ________.A. can get nutrition from animalsB. don't need much food valueC. can make the most of such conditionsD. have developed digestive enzymes4.We learn from the text that meateating plants ________.A. are big and tallB. like to grow in dry landC. look bright and beautifulD. are usually covered with hairBSetting up wildlife reserves is not just a matter of building a fence around an area and letting it grow “wild”.●First the area that is suitable for the creation of a reserve has to be identified and delimited (确定界限). This requires surveys to collect data on key species.●A legal framework may need to be set up to control human activities in the area and in its immediate surroundings. (e.g. hunting, fishing, agriculture, industry and tourism)●Policing the area may also be necessary.●If part of the area has been worse due to bad land use it may need restoring. (e.g. 90% of tourists do not wander more than 100m from their cars, so the placing of car parks can greatly influence the impact of visitors.)●Constant management will be needed to maintain the habitat of the species being conserved.What are the advantages and disadvantages of in situ conservation?In situ means conserving species where they are naturally found. This is preferable for several reasons:●The species will have all the resources that it is adapted to (species in captivity have to adapt to special diets and artificial environments).●In situ species have more space.●Bigger breeding populations can be kept in situ.●It is cheaper to keep an organism in situ.However there are problems.●In situ it is difficult to control illegal exploitation (非法开发).●In situ the environment may need restoring and species belonging to other different area or country are difficult to control.5.Which one has nothing to do with building a wild life reserves?A. Doing surveys to collect data on key species.B. Setting up a legal framework to resist the human's activities.C. Maintaining the habitat of the species being conserved.D. Parking the cars everywhere in order to have an easy life. 6.What will be found in situ conservation?A. The species will have all the resources made by machine.B. The species will have a usual life just like their wild life.C. The species will be trapped in different cages.D. The species will be fed with man-made food. 7.What's the main idea of this passage? A. The reason why we should set up reserves. B. The method of setting up reserves. C. The conditions of setting up reserves.D. Something about reserves and in situ conservation.CA Day of HopeA Day of Hope is a student run non profit (非营利性的) organization that sends baskets of food for Thanksgiving to poor families in Northern California. Over the past three years, A Day of Hope has sent baskets of food to 405 families in need.Arts for All AgesArts for All Ages is a non profit organization that travels to schools, day care centres (日托所), and homeless shelters with the intention of giving children the opportunity to experience and experiment with the performing and fine arts in central Florida. We set up lessons and workshops for all children, who show an interest in learning any one of the arts we teach, free of any cost to them.Charity MusicCharity Music is a non-profit public service organization that lends musical instruments free of charge to people wishing to explore their musical talents. Its goal is to help develop future musical artists. Theorganization's Musical Instrument Donation Program was established in 1996 by former Macomb Symphony Orchestra President, Roger Fachini.The Food for Everyone FoundationThe Food for Everyone Foundation is a non-profit organization that travels to poor areas throughout the world, teaching people how to grow gardens that will produce 5 to 10 times more than traditional methods.House Rabbit SocietyHouse Rabbit Society is a volunteer based international non profit organization with two primary goals :1) To rescue abandoned rabbits and find permanent homes for them.2) To educate the public and assist caring societies, through the website, articles on rabbit care, phoneconsultation, and classes upon request.One Note at A TimeOne Note at A Time brings free professional music education to Haitian students living in rural mountain towns.

Today, _1_, a lot of things in science stories have been science facts. Robots are starting to _2_ in our everyday lives. These robots have different sizes, shapes and colors. But they all have the same _3_ of man-made “_4_”. Leading the robot revolution(革命) are industrial robots that work in factories. Industrial robots can do different kinds of jobs that are often _5_ and sometimes dangerous. Robots are also coming to American homes, though not as quickly as they are entering _6_. These robots aren’t as friendly and _7_ as those you saw in Star Wars. But, their makers say, today’s home robots “walk” and sense objects in their own way. They even _8_ objects though they may sometimes drop. Well, nobodyis _9_.We may _10_ home robots today, but some day they may see and hear _11_ than humans do. We _12_ can only see certain wave lengths of light and hear certain _13_. That’s becaus e the _14_ of our eyes and ears are _15_. Robots, however, need not have the same limits _16_ we have. Robots may also be _17_ with devices(装置) that _18_ information humans can’t. However, to understand _19_ their sensing devices pick up is a hard job. Remember, man-made brains _20_ information, including all kinds of data, as zeroes and ones.

He completed the task in just a few minutes at the show, which was held in Beijing last Saturday. Just imagine the tiny parts that make up a watch. You have to wonder how the disabled man developed such a skill.It was reported that 28-year-old Wang Jianghai lost his arms in an accident when he was five and began learning to repair watches at the age of 17. He has repaired more than 10,000 watches in the past 11 years.What strong self-confidence he must have to overcome the difficulties in getting this skill! What optimism he must have to face the unfairness of his hard life! And what strong determination he must have to go through the hardship in his struggle for a normal life! Such confidence, optimism and willpowerare exactly the qualities many physically healthy people lack nowadays. Wang has set a good example for young people.But today's youth seem to be more interested with their TV stars and pop singers but less interested in learning from the examples of working and studying hard to achieve higher goals. . That is undoubtedly the result of the influence of a changing social atmosphere. One must admit that there is a trend towards hedonism in our society. People are increasingly more concerned about material gains than about spiritual pursuits. While adults know they must work hard whatever way they choose to materialize the gains, the younger generation are more likely to seek ease and comforts of their senses.This pleasure-seeking trend provides a huge market for the entertainment industry and the mass media. The media devote excessive too much coverage to anecdotes of pop and TV stars, which in turn fans wider and stronger enthusiasm for entertainment among the public, especially young people.Ours is a developing country. Global competition in the growth of national strength presents a demand for China to be quicker in its development. We cannot afford to lose time. We need to make our economy more powerful. To meet this need, all of us should maintain our tradition of working hard and overcoming difficulties.1. A particular mention made of Wang Jianghai’s story in the first two paragraphs _____.A. serves as a description of the trend todayB. serves as an introduction to the discussionC. shows a disagreement of viewsD. show the popularity of the TV stars and pop singers2. Which of the following is the reason for young people’s increasing interest in entertainment?A. Young people are taught by adults to seek pleasure of senses.B. Young people have given up our traditional value of hard working completelyC. Young people are not interested in learning from the examples of hard working at all.D. Young people are far too much influenced by too much entertainment news in media.3. The underlined word “hedonism” (paragraph 4) means “________”.A. a materialB. spiritual gainsC. thinking pleasure is the most importantD. amusementBEvery artist knows in his heart that he is saying something to the public. Not only does he want to say it well, but he wants it to be something which has not been said before. He hopes the public will listen and understand-he wants to teach them, and he wan to them to learn from him.What visual artists like painters want to teach is easy to make out but difficult to explain, because translate their experiences into shapes and colors, not word. They seem to fell that a certain selection of shapes and colors, out of the countless billions possible, is exceptionally interesting for them and worth showing to us. Without their work we should never have noticed these particular shapes and colors, or have felt the delight which they brought to the artist.Most artists take their shapes and colors from the world of nature and from human bodies in motion and response: their choices indicate that these aspects of the world are worth looking at, that they contain beautiful sights. Contemporary artists might say that they merely choose subjects that provide an interesting pattern, that there is noting more in it. Yet even they do not choose entirely without reference to the character of their subjects.If one painter chooses to paint a decaying(腐烂的) leg and another a lake in moonlight, each of them is directing our attention to a certain aspect of the world. Each painter is telling us something, showing us something, emphasizing something—all of which means that, consciously or unconsciously, he is trying to teach us.4. It is hard to understand a painting because_____A. the artist wants to teach the othersB. a painter uses shapes and colors instead of works.C. the painter doesn’t express his idea well enoughD. the painting is meaningless5. A painter uses certain shapes and colors because he feels that they ____.A. haven’t been used beforeB. are worth showing to the publicC. are interesting to themD. haven’t been noticed by the public6 Implied but not stated_____.A. paintings are more easily understood than music.B. to find what the artist is saying we must look beyond the shape and colorC. painting is only the arranging of shape and colorD. all artists are trying to teach something to the public7. Why do painters want to teach is easy to make out but difficult to explain?A. Because painters cannot express themselves clearly in words.B. Because painters change their into shapes and colors, not words.C. Because people cannot understand painters’ words.D. Because people are not interested in what painters want to tell us.8. Where do most artists take their shapes and colors?A. From natureB. From human bodies in motion and repose.C. From artists’ own imagination.D. Both A and B四完成句子1. 每次我沮丧的时候,爸爸总是想尽办法来鼓励我。
