第一部分必修五Unit 3Ⅰ.阅读理解导学号01830936See a cellphone cover that you like on Taobao? Forget about placing an order, paying the bill online and waiting for days for it to be delivered to you. In the near future, you'll be able to get it in minutes just by hitting “print” on your computer.You might find it hard to believe that you could actually “print”an object like you would a picture. But it is not that hard to understand how it would work. Just as a traditional printer sprays (喷) ink onto paper line by line, modern 3D printers spread material onto a surface layer by layer, from the bottom to the top, gradually building up a shape.Instead of ink, the materials the 3D printer uses are mainly plastic, resin(树脂) and certain metals. The thinner each layer is—from a millimetre to less than the width of a hair—the smoother and finer the object will be.This may sound like a completely new technology, but the truth is that 3D printing has been around since the late 1980s. Back then, it was barely affordable for most people, so few knew about it.Last year, though, saw a big change in the 3D printing industry—printers became much cheaper. For example, 10 years ago a desktop 3D printer might have cost £20, 000, while now they cost only about £1, 000, according to the BBC.Taken out of the factory and introduced to more diverse and common uses, 3D printing can create just about anything you can think of—flutes (笛子), bikinis, jewelry, aircraft parts and even human organs. In fact, scientists from Cornell University in New York have just made an artificial ear using a 3D printer, according to Science Daily. The fake ear looks and acts exactly like a natural one.However, as 3D printing becomes more common, it may bring about certain problems—such as piracy. “Once you can download a coffee maker, or print out a new set of kitchen utensils (餐具) on your personal 3D printer, who will visit a retail (零售的) store again? ”an expert in 3D printing told Forbes News. Even more frightening, what if anyone in the world could use a 3D printer to print out a fully functioning gun?文章大意:本文介绍了3D打印机的使用材料和工作原理等,它在未来的广泛使用能够改变人们的生活,同时也会产生盗版行为等问题。

In the book he used the full power of his great ability to forecast the coming century. Unfortunately, the manuscript (手稿) was lost until his great-grandson happened to discover it lying in a safe where it had been carefully locked away for almost 130 years. Realizing what a treasure he had found, he arranged to have it published (出版) in 1994, and it became a bestseller at once.Back in 1863, kings still ruled the ancient world in Europe, with so many poor people performing backbreaking work in the fields. And steam power was just beginning to change the world. But Verne predicted that Paris in 1960 would have glass skyscrapers, air conditioning, TV, elevators, high-speed trains, gas-powered vehicles, and even something similar to the Internet. Verne described life in modern Paris almost without any mistakes.Just two years later Verne made another amazing prediction. He wrote From the Earth to the Moon, in which he predicted the details of the task that sent several astronauts (宇航员) to the moon more than 100 years later in 1969. He correctly predicted the size of the space capsule, the number of astronauts who would carry out the task, the length of time the journey would take, the weightlessness that the astronauts would experience, and the final landing in the ocean.How was Jules Verne able to predict 100 years into the future successfully? Although he was not a scientist himself, Verne often turned to scientists, asking them questions about their opinions of the future. He collected a vast amount of information about the great scientific discoveries of his time. Verne realized that science would make it possible for many amazing things to appear in the future. The secret of his successful prediction was his belief in the power of science to change society.25. Paris in the Twentieth Century is a novel that _____.A. people thought little of at firstB. took Jules Verne five years to finishC. didn’t sell well when published at firstD. was published long after it was finished26.

According to the text, Jules Verne _____.A. showed strong interest in writing and scienceB. could predict what would happen to someoneC. was well-known as both a novelist and a scientistD. had Paris in the Twentieth Century published in 199428. What would be the best title for the text?A. The early life of Jules VerneB. Jules Verne’s opinions about scienceC. Jules Verne: A writer ahead of his timeD. Jules Verne’s inventions came trueC★★★☆☆Known as a radio host, Rush Limbaugh landed his first radio job when he was in high school. Then Limbaugh attended Southeast Missouri State University, where he showed interest in nothing but radio. After dropping out of college, Limbaugh went to work at a radio station,but he did not last long. For the next few years, he changed from station to station. Tom Leathers, publisher of The Squires, knew Limbaugh at the time and recalls, “Limbaugh was nothing special. He did not have that powerful personality you hear now. He was painfully shy.” Finally, under pressure from his father, who wanted him to give up radio, Limbaugh took a job as a public relations assistant for the Kansas City Royals (a Major League Baseball team).After five years, Limbaugh left the job because he wanted to work in radio. He soon landed a position at a Kansas City station as a talk show host and commentator. Ten months later, he was fired (解雇). In fact, he once admitted that he had been fired from all but two of the jobs he ever held. A year went by before a San Diego radio station agreed to give him a chance, mainly because it was in serious financial trouble. The job was exactly the chance he needed. Soon Limbaugh’s three-hour morning show became the most popular program in the city and spread to radio stations across the United States.In 2001, Limbaugh faced a new problem that threatened to take him off the air — deafness. Limbaugh went completely deaf in his left ear and had serious hearing loss in his right. At first, he made an effort to change the way he did his program to cover up his disability. Finally, he told the truth to his listeners and received a cochlear implant operation, which helped him regain some hearing in his left ear. As of 2008,Limbaugh’s radio show was still being broadcast on almost six hundred AM radio stations in the United States and on audio streams over the Internet. Limbaugh’s popularity is often said to have breathed new life into AM radio.29. What Tom Leathers said suggests that _____.A. Limbaugh’s hosting style was not attractiveB. Limbaugh was too shy to work as a radio hostC. Limbaugh used to be a man with a strong personalityD. Limbaugh shouldn’t have dropped out of college30. What’s the right order of the events about Rush Limbaugh?a. He worked as a public relations assistant.b. He had an operation because of hearing loss.c. He attended Southeast Missouri State University.d. He was offered a job by a San Diego radio station.e. He worked as a talk show host at a Kansas City station.A. c, a, d, e, bB. a, b, e, d, cC. c, a, e, d, bD. a, d, e, b, c31. What can we learn from Rush Limbaugh’s story?A. Think twice before you act.B. Where there is a will, there is a way.C. A good beginning makes a good ending.D. Don’t put off till tomorrow what should be done today.32. What is the text mainly about?A. Ways to help the deaf to hear.B. Rush Limbaugh’s career in radio.C. How to be an excellent radio host.D. Rush Limbaugh’s influence in the USA.D★★★★☆Don’t we all know a “Happy Meal” when we see one — the famous boxed meal that includes a hamburger, a kid-sized portion of fries, a side of fruits and milk, served with a toy that’s extremely popular with children who love to collect them?But collectors of these little toys will soon be in for a surprise. For the book lovers though, there is some good news. McDonalds will replace the plastic toys with books. However, each of these books will mainly pass on nutritional messages.Do you know that McDonalds has been marketing the boxed kid’s meal since 1979? Happy Meals are extremely popular with kids, especially for its collectible toys, when you consider that over 1.3 billion of these packages are sold each year! These packages have been very controversial (有争议的). Health supporters believe that drawing kids to these meals with toys is a clever way of promoting unhealthy food choices. They see it as an advertising strategy (策略) of “catching its customers young” — a move that has paid off very well for the fast food company.Child development experts say that food habits get formed in children by age six and continue through to their adult life. Fatty and sugary foods such as those served in McDonalds’ Happy Meals are believed to play a big role in growing health problems such as obesity and diabetes. Public healthcare costs have gone up and untold amounts of money have been spent in caring for obesity and other health problems. In 2010, the State of California tried to ban (禁止) toys in Happy Meals. But it was strongly opposed (反对) by some as being heavy-handed, and the ban was thrown out by the government.While some people believe that McDonalds, with its large following of children, can create a powerful message through the books, others believe its actions are contradictory (矛盾的). Anyway, the company is trying to spread the message of nutrition while it is serving food that is anything but healthy.33.

It begins when one person writes down a message but doesn't show it to anyone.Then the person whispers it, word for word,to another person.That person,in turn,whispers it to still another, and so on, through all the people playing the game.The last person writes down the message word for word as he or she hears it.Then the two written statements are compared.Typically, the original message has changed.That's what happens in daily life.The simple fact that people repeat a story in their own words changes the story.Then, too, most people listen imperfectly.And many enjoy adding their owncreative touch to a story, trying to improve on it, stamping it with their personal style.Yet those who hear it think they know.This process is also found among scholars and authors:A statement of opinion by one writer may be re-stated as a fact by another,who may in turn be quoted by yet another,and this process may continue,unless it occurs to someone to question the facts on which the original writer based his opinion or to challenge the interpretation he placed upon those facts.[语篇导读]本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了被动获得知识所存在的一个严重的问题——被告知的可能是谣言,并用现实生活中简单的事例加以说明。

Grand Song of the Dong ethnic group.The Grand Song of Dong dates from more than 2,500 years ago.The way Dong singers use their vocal cords(声带) is different from how formally trained singers do.It is a

both,and thus the relationship.But books don’t change,people do.And that’s what makes the act of rereading so rich and transformative.The beauty of rereading lies in the idea that our bond with the work is based on our present mental register.It’s true,the older I get,the more I feel time has wings.But with reading,it’s all about the present.It’s about the now and what one contributes to the now,because reading is a give and take between author and reader.Each has to pull their own weight.There are three books I reread annually.The first,which I take to reading every spring,is Ernest Hemingway’s A Moveable Feast.Published in 1964,it’s his classic memoir of 1920s Paris.The language is almost intoxicating(令人陶醉的),an aging writer looking backon an ambitious yet simpler time.Another is Annie Dillard’s Holy the Firm,her poetic 1975 ramble(随笔) about everything and nothing.The third book is Julio Cort zar’s Save Twilight:Selected Poems,because poetry.And because Cort zar.While I tend to buy a lot of books,these three were given to me as gifts,which might add to the meaning I attach to them.But I imagine that,while money is indeed wonderful and necessary,rereading an author’s work is the highest currency a reader can pay them.The best books are the ones that open further as time passes.But remember,it’s you that has to grow and read and reread in order to better understand your friends.8.Why does the author like rereading?A.It evaluates the writer-reader relationship.B.It’s a window to a whole new world.C.It’s a substitute for drinking with a friend.D.It extends the understanding of oneself.9.What do we know about the book A Moveable Feast?A.It’s a brief account of a trip.B.It’s about Hemingway’s life as a young man.C.It’s a record of a historic event.D.It’s about Hemingway’s friends in Paris.10.What does the underlined word “currency” in paragraph 4 refer to?A.Debt.B.Reward.C.Allowance.D.Face value.11.What can we infer about the author from the text?A.He loves poetry.B.He’s an editor.C.He’s very ambitious.D.He teaches reading.D(2021·江苏徐州高二期末)I fell in love with the Little Free Library concept years ago on vacation.The concept of free literature-sharing boxes posted in neighborhoods and public spaces hooked me.For a booklover,this represented pleasure.At home,my bedside table sprouts(长出) books and from the floor rises a mountainous to-be-read pile.My husband wasn’t the least bit surprised when I suggested starting our own Little Free Library.As a writer and introvert(内向的人),I welcomed the idea of saying hello to other booklovers on occasion.The following winter,my husband built a copy of our Irish garden shed(棚屋) with a framed glass door on the front and,in the spring,fixed it on a post in front of our house.We filled the shelves with books,and since then,visitors have refilled them with literary fiction,romances,mysteries,science fiction,cowboy westerns,young-adult fiction,poetry,how-to’s,self-help and a range of other nonfiction.For a time after the pandemic first struck,public libraries shut down,and Amazon prioritized the delivery of essential and high-demand items.Books were less easily attained.Traffic to our library increased.I posted reminders about handwashing,andstill,readers kept coming.We wondered if we should close the Little Free Library and revisited(再次讨论)our original motivations for hosting it:to facilitate the exchange of books,to create a sense of community.Reading provides the necessary relief to the emotional pressure of life.With this in mind,we added a written reminder on staying safe in the library.Through my teens,reading transported me to other places and eras.Books taught me about life and how people overcame adversity.I no longer felt alone in the things I struggled against.Aside from the entertainment books offer,studies show that reading exposes us to other cultures and perspectives.Literature sheds light on the justice to be found in social inclusion and community cohesion(凝聚).Self-esteem and understanding grow in equal measure as we come to understand ourselves and our place in the world.During this pandemic,the Little Free Library has reinforced the importance of literature and reading to our emotional and mental health.It’s become an alternate means of creating a community of people with mutual regard for humanity and the written word.We are together even when apart.12.What attracted the author to host the Little Free Library?A.The emotional crush of life.B.The free literature-sharing concept.C.The sense of self-esteem and social justice.D.The importance of exchanging books with each other.13.What is the husband’s attitude toward building the Little Free Library?A.Objective.B.Supportive.C.Indifferent.D.Doubtful.14.What happened to the author’s Little Free Library during the pandemic?A.It was not allowed to be used.B.The number of books dropped sharply.C.It was getting more popular than before.D.Readers questioned the motivations for hosting it.15.What is the benefit of the Little Free Library during the pandemic?A.It has offered solutions to the pandemic.B.It has relieved the pressure of public libraries.C.It has exposed readers to foreign perspectives.D.It has helped create a united and cohesive community.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
必修5 Unit 3 高考试卷分块专练阅读理解提速练(4篇阅读+1篇七选五,限时35分钟)Ⅰ.阅读理解AIf I had to choose what language to learn next, it's a tough decision but it'd probably be German because many people that know several languages tell me that German is their favourite language in terms of expressing themselves. And I think it might have something to do with the vast amount of vocabulary the German language has. So I think it'd be really difficult but a fun challenge.Elena (Canada, teacher)I think I'd like to learn French next because it's a very romantic (浪漫的) language and it could be very useful in different job situations. Besides, I think it could help me understand English a bit more as well, since it was previously the language of diplomacy (外交).Bryan (USA, writer)I'd love to learn Italian next. I visited Milan last year and I think it would be great to be able to speak to some of the locals. Also, it's quite similar to Spanish, so I don't think it would be too confusing.Georgina (England, Olympic swimmer)I'd really like to learn French. I actually learned it some years ago, but I haven't used it in a long time and I've forgotten it but it's a language that I really enjoy speaking, and I think France is a wonderful country.James (New Zealand, travel writer)语篇解读:本文是一篇应用文。
文中四人分别表述了自己最想学习的下一种语言并给出了理由。
1.One of the reasons why Bryan wants to learn French is that ________.A.it is easy to learnB.it is used frequentlyC.it sounds more beautiful than EnglishD.it allows him to express himself more clearly解析:选B推理判断题。
根据第二段中的“it could be very useful in different job situations”可知,在不同的工作场景中法语都非常有用。
由此可推测,正是因为法语的使用频率很高,所以Bryan想学法语。
2.We can infer that Georgina ________.A.will live in MilanB.can speak SpanishC.feels puzzled about her careerD.wants to make some Italian friends解析:选B推理判断题。
根据第三段中的“it's quite similar to Spanish, so I don't think it would be too confusing”可推测,因为Georgina会西班牙语,所以她认为和西班牙语很像的意大利语应该不会很难学。
3.Who is the most fearless learner?A.Elena.B.Bryan.C.Georgina. D.James.解析:选A推理判断题。
根据第一段中的“... the vast amount of vocabulary the German language has. So I think it'd be really difficult but a fun challenge”可知,Elena明明知道德语的词汇量很大,学起来会很困难,但仍然想去尝试学德语,并认为这是项很有趣的挑战。
由此不难看出,Elena是个不畏困难的学习者。
BWhat will man be like in the future — in 5,000 or even 50,000 years from now? We can only make guesses, of course, but we can be sure that he will be different from what he is today, for man is slowly changing all the time.Let us take an obvious example. Man, even five hundred years ago, was shorter than he is today. Now, on average, menare about three inches taller. Five hundred years is relatively a shortperiod of time, so we may assume that man will continue to grow taller.Again, in the modern world we use our brains a great deal. Even so, westill make use of only about 20% of the brain's capacity. As time goes on,however, we shall have to use our brains more and more, and eventuallywe shall need larger ones! This is likely to bring about a physical change to the head, in particular, the forehead will grow larger.Nowadays our eyes are in constant use. In fact, we use them so much that very often they become weaker and we have to wear glasses. But over a very long period of time it is likely that man's eyes will grow stronger.On the other hand, we tend to make less use of our arms and legs. These, as a result, are likely to grow weaker. At the same time, however, our fingers will grow more sensitive because they are used a great deal in modern life.But what about hair? This will probably disappear from the body altogether in course of timebecause it does not serve a useful purpose any longer.
