2021版高考英语一轮复习第一部分教材重点全程攻略Unit5Thepowerofnature限时规范特训新人教版选修6202105131100Ⅰ.阅读明白得A[2020·长沙一模]Evidence of violent storms that destroyed a lost town known as Britain's Atlantis has been uncovered. The finds were uncovered off the coast of Dunwich, Suffolk—a small village which in the 11th century was one of the largest towns in England.The town was hit by a series of storms in the 13th and 14th centuries and is now largely below the sea.Researchers said sediment (沉积物) gathered from the cliffs independently proved the historical record.“They were like the south coast storms of 2020, at least once a year for decades，” Professor David Sear, of the University of Southampton, said.The three­year research on Dunwich has been funded by Touching the Tide, a ￡900,000 Heritage Lottery Fund plan to explore the changing Suffolk coast.A diver used ultrasound (超声波) to “illuminate” findings on the seabed, and the marshes (沼泽) and eroding cliffs were surveyed.“It offers a marvelous history of climate change and coas tal erosion，” said Prof. Sear with regard to the findings.In the 11th century, Dunwich was the 10th largest town in England, but now has about 120 residents.Two great storms in 1286 and 1326 resulted in the loss of its harbour and started its decline. Prof. Sear said analysis showed how people gave up on Dunwich after 1338, when another great storm choked up the port for good, and food production declined. “Sediment gathered from the cliffs，” he said, “independently confirmed the sequences of storms reco rded in the historical record.”The underwater research has been carried out using acoustic (声音的) imaging technology, and has unearthed a series of buildings. We found the ruins of about four churches and we've also found ruins of what we think was a toll house. We've also found shipwrecks (沉船), which no one's known before.A dig in 2020 discovered evidence of Dunwich's prehistoric origins, as well as evidence that it was a prosperous Saxon port, prior to its rapid growth followingthe Norman invasion.Bill Jenman, from Touching the Tide, said，“We found loads of pottery, a lot more than we've found before, sort of High Medieval—the peak of the wealth of Dunwich. We know it was a fairly major town in the Anglo­Saxon period.”篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。

Nowadays, especially in China, everything seems to favor social intercourse, such as gatherings of friends, KTV, group travel, dining tighter, playing cards and Mahjong, plus the Chinese-style “stree t-crossing group.” Back home, discussions can still be boisterously carried on within the “circle of friends” of WeChat.However, these scenes cannot always ease a sense of loneliness. Zhu Ziqing, a well-known professor of Tsinghua University, signed with emotion: “My loneliness increases as scene becomes much busier.” One popular song today is also called “A lonely man in crowds.” Actually, engaging in social intercourse requires ability, while being alone involves the whole character.These days, it is no t easy to calm down totally and return to one’s true self. Willpower, intellect and discipline are required. Einstein said: “It is not your working time but your spare time that determines the possibility of whether you will be successful or not.” The “spare time” he referred to could be taken as “spending time by yourself.”Lonely life could be either dull, boring and tasteless or abundant, interesting and colorful, depending on one’s quality, ambition and inspiration.Just as the body constantly requires energy, the mind and soul also demand unceasing inputs. However, information, to processed and integrated(融入)into knowledge, thoughts and feelings, instead of bustle(忙碌)seems to be the right condition. Successful careers in all walks of life worldwide have proved that “the soul grows in peace and talent is nurtured in loneliness”. In a sense, it may be reasonable to say that “Happiness tends to be shallow while loneliness involves profundity”.Man, in fact, needs loneliness more than happy time, and only abundant loneliness can produce quality happiness.1.Which of the following can replace the underlined the word “boisterously” inparagraph 1?A. surprisinglyB. sadlyC. busilyD. peacefully2.What can we infer from the second paragraph?A. Being alone marks people depressed.B. Social intercourse improves our happiness.C. One may feel lonely even when surrounded by peopleD. We should attend social intercourse to decrease our loneliness.3.What can we know from Einstein’s words?A. You should be successful if you spend all your time by yourself.B. You should exercise more if you want to keep your minds healthy.C. You will not become successful if you join in more social intercourse.D. You will be more successful if you can make your lonely time meaningful.4.Which may be the best title for this passage?A. Live On Your OwnB. Happiness and LonelinessC. The secret of successD. Practice Your Social Ability【文章大意】这是一篇议论文，讲述了幸福和孤独之间的关系。

been rushing toward the town,outside the city of Hilo.It has become a tourist attraction,and visitors gather near a trash transfer station where the lava has destroyed a home.Its roof can be seen in thedistance,above the black hardened lava.The lava flow near Pahoa,one of two active holes,is an irregular eruption.For a short period,scientists were trying to forecast that,and every one of those forecasts was wrong because of this start-and-stop feature.There’s almost no way of forecasting more than a day or two in advance.In Honolulu,University of Hawaii researcher Bruce Houghton is analyzing the eruption using high-speed photography.He said that our understanding of volcanoes is improving with input from many scientific disciplines.This photo of the Kilauea lava flow at Pahoa,Hawaii,was taken Jan.22.The lava is now flowing on another,nearby leg.In Pahoa,as the lava approaches within 500 meters of the local highway, some businesses are open,while others have moved to other places.Business owner Constance Rojcewicz is keeping an eye on the flowing lava.“It’s a l ittle bitfrightening,”she said.“You want to be ready.I’ll be ready to move out if I need to,in a day or two.”The uncertainty is hard on residents.Scientists have discovered the stress level on families,on interpersonal relationships,on children—that’s th e crisis(关键时期) right now.The lava is bringing long-lasting changes.When the lava flow comes through,its effects remain for hundreds of years.The hardened lava rock remains there for a very long time.But that’s how the islands were built.That’s how the isl ands grow as a state.The volcano is a part of life on these islands.1.What’s the good part about the volcanic eruption?A.It is exciting to watch.B.It benefits the tourism.C.It brings little damage.D.It is valuable for research.2.It is hard to forecast the lava flow because .A.the volcano is erupting continuouslyB.it is a long time between two eruptionsC.the volcano doesn’t erupt regularlyD.it is impossible to forecast eruptions3.The photo of lava flow was taken to .A.record the great natural phenomenaB.attract more visitors in the worldC.judge its harm done to local peopleD.gather up information to study it4.What’s the local people’s attitude towards the volcano?A.They are afraid of it.B.They suffer from it.C.They are used to it.D.They are proud of it.BWith any sandwich you buy in the United States you will receive an all toofamiliar side dish without any explanation.The pickle(泡菜).But why?How did thepickle become such an important part of our deli(熟食店) experience?Where did thepickle come from,and more importantly,why does one always come with your sandwich?Pickles have been around for thousands of years and were considered a type of delicious food as early as 2400 BC.The pickle became popular in the U.S. though when the first Jewish immigrants came to New York from Eastern Europe.Famous for their unique combinations of meat,Jewish delis in the city used the pickle as a palate(味觉) cleanser.The acidity allows you to experience the sharp contrast in flavors and more fully appreciate the taste of your sandwich.The specific deli that was the first to place a pickle alongside a sandwich is unknown,but the practice quickly spread beyond Jewish delis.Across the city of New York,the pickle’s popularity grew and by the 1930s there had been many pickle sellers across the Lower East Side.In fact,there were famous “Pickle Wars” that occurred between the sellers competing for the complete controlof trade in the sour sensation.Today the pickle has even been given its own festivalin New York that is celebrated in October.Once the pickle became a staple(不可缺少的食物) in New York,the tradition of including the pickle with a deli sandwich grew in appeal and it quickly became a popular choice for an easy-to-prepare side dish across the U.S. In fact,the pickle is now the most commonly used side dish for a sandwich and the combination makes up the majority of all pickle consumption.It has become so standard that restaurants nolonger list it on the menu.5.The pickle has been enjoyed by many people in the U.S. since .A.2400 BCB.thousands of years agoC.sandwiches became popularD.the first Jews immigrated to New York6.According to Paragraph 2,the pickle .A.is usually very saltyB.is much tastier than meatC.helps clear our sense of tasteD.helps enrich the flavor of food7.What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?A.Pickle sellers in New York.B.The popularity of the pickle.C.The advantage of the pickle.D.Pickle festivals in New York.8.What can we infer from the text?A.There are many kinds of pickles across America.B.The pickle is usually listed on restaurants’ menus.C.Most pickles are used as a side dish for sandwiches.D.Many dishes are accompanied by a variety of pickles.Ⅱ.七选五Feeling both positive and negative emotions is a natural part of being human.We might use the word “negative” to describe difficult emotions,but it doesn’t mean those emotions are bad or we shouldn’t have them.Still,most people would probably rather feel a positive emotion than a negative one.1.What matters is how our emotions are balanced—how much of each type of emotion,positive or negative,we experience.Negative emotions warn us of threats or challenges that we may need to deal with.For example,fear can make us aware of possible danger.2. Angry feelings warn us that someone is stepping on our toes,crossing a boundary,or losing ourtrust.Anger can be a signal that we might need to act on our own behalf.Negative emotions focus our awareness.3. But too many negative emotions can make us feel anxious,exhausted,or stressed out.When negative emotions are out of balance,problems might seem too big to handle.Positive emotions balance out negative ones,and they have other powerful benefits,too.Instead of narrowing our focus like negative emotions do,positive emotions affect our brains in ways that increase our awareness,attention,and memory.They help us take in more information and hold several ideas in mind at once.4.When positive emotions open us up to new possibilities,we are more able to learn and build on our skills.5.A.What helps you feel confident?B.That leads to doing better on tasks and tests.C.It’s a signal that we might need to protect ourselves.D.They help us focus on a problem so we can deal with it.E.For example,it’s likely you’d prefer to feel happy instead of sad.F.And they then make us understand how different ideas relate to each other.G.Pay attention to these powerful tools and find ways to make time for them.Ⅲ.短文改错(2020·辽宁大连双基测试)One day,I was walking home after school when an old man fell heavy onto the snow-covering road.Many people passed by,and no one took action.Some of them said it was none of their business;others worried that if they helped him,they might got into a difficult situation.Seeing what had happened,I called 120 immediately.While waiting the ambulance,I took down my coat to keep the old man warm.In no time did the ambulance came.Having helped the doctors carry him into an ambulance,I feltrelieved.In my opinion,this is our duty to help those who are in troubles.##考点规范练30(选修6Unit5)Ⅰ.【语篇导读】夏威夷一座活火山喷发,该火山差不多喷发三十多年了,但这次岩浆流得比较远,威逼到了都市。

But new research suggests that teens who get along with their friends may end up healthier as adults.Scientists have known that close friendships help boost health. That's true for both teens and adults. The finding inspired Joseph Allen, a psychologist at the University of Virginia, and his team to study whether experiences during teen years can influence adult health.So they followed 171 teens, starting when the kids were just 13.They interviewed each one every year in a period of five years, and also spoke to these teens' closest friends, who provided additional information about the quality of their friendships. The same 171 people were interviewed again at ages 25, 26 and 27.This time, the questions surveyed each person's overall health. When the researchers analyzed the data, they found a strong connection between a teen's friendship and his/her future health. Teens who had close friends grew up to be healthier adults. Whether teens held back their feelings or expressed them to close friends also influenced their later health. Those who held back their feelings were more likely to be sick as adults. The connection held up even after the scientists accounted for other possible influences on health. Weight, family income and drug use were all examined. So were mental health issues, such as anxiety and depression. And in these people,such other factors did not explain adult health as well as teen friendships did.“Following the crowd may have benefits,” says Allen,“but there are also drawbacks.”Teens who are more independent tend to do better at school and work. And peer pressure may lead some teens to engage in risky behavior, such as smoking,drinking and taking drugs.Dealing with it isa challenge, Allen acknowledges. “Finding the right balance is the key.Teens shouldn't lose heart for not finding this easily,”he adds.“Parents need to understand the press ures teens face.”1.Where can you probably read this passage?A.In science fiction.B.In a health column.C.In a fashion magazine.D.In an entertainment newspaper.2.We can learn from Allen's study that .A.many other factors have a greater influence on adult health than teen friendshipsB.mental health issues have nothing to do with adult healthC.the 171 teens were interviewed each year from 13 to 27 years of ageD.the teens who can't express themselves may grow up to be unhealthier3.According to what Allen said, we can know that .A.in order to do better at school,teens should not follow the crowdB.though it's challenging for teens to deal with peer pressure, they should not give upC.teens will engage in smoking, drinking and taking drugs when facing peer pressureD.parents should understand their teens and stop them facing peer pressure4.What can be inferred from the passage?A.There is nothing bad for teens to follow the crowd.B.Close friendships are the most important for people's health.C.Teen friendships may turn out healthier adults.D.Adult health is only influenced by teen friendships.Ⅱ.语法填空阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

典例引领 (2020湖北,E)Science has a lot of uses.It can uncover laws of nature,cure diseases,make bombs,and help bridges to stand up.Indeed science is so good at what it does that there’s always a temptation(诱惑)to drag it into problems where it may not be helpful.David Brooks,author of The Social Animal:The Hidden Sources of Love,Character,and Achievement,appears to be the latest in a long line of writers who have failed to resist the temptation.Brooks gained fame for several books.His latest book The Social Animal,however,is more ambitious and serious than his earlier books.It is an attempt to deal with a set of weighty topics.The book focuses on big questions:What has science revealed about human nature?What are the sources of character?And why are some people happy and successful while others aren’t?To answer these questions,Brooks surveys a wide range of disciplines(学科).Considering this,you might expect the book to be a dry recitation of facts.But Brooks has structured his book in an unorthodox(专门规的),and perhaps unfortunate,way.Instead of introducing scientific theories,he tells a story,within which he tries to make his points,perhaps in order to keep the reader’s attention.So as Harold and Erica,the hero and heroine in his story,live through childhood,we hear about the science of child development,and as they begin to date we hearabout the theory of sexual attraction.Brooks carries this through to the death of one of his characters.On the whole,Brooks’s story is acceptable if uninspired.As one would expect,his writing is mostly clear and,to be fair,some chapters stand out above the rest.I enjoyed,for instance,the chapter in which Harold discovers how to think on his own.While Harold and Erica are certainly not strong or memorable characters,the more serious problems with The Social Animal lie elsewhere.These problems partly involve Brooks’s attempt to translate his tale into science.1.The author mentions the functions of science at the beginning of the passage to .A.illustrate where science can be appliedB.demonstrate the value of Brooks’s new bookC.remind the reader of the importance of scienceD.explain why many writers use science in their works2.According to the author,which of the following could be a strength of the book?A.Its strong basis.B.Its convincing points.C.Its clear writing.D.Its memorable characters.3.What is the author’s general attitude towards the book?A.Contradictory.B.Supportive.C.Cautious.D.Critical.4.What is the author likely to write about after the last paragraph?A.Problems with the book.B.Brooks’s life experiences.C.Death of the characters.D.Brooks’s translation skills.方法运用[语篇解读] 本文为议论文,题材为社会科学类。
