Unit 3 Computers李仕才一、阅读理解The wedding tradition of“something old，something new，something borrowed and something blue”has been around for hundreds of years.The tradition of carrying or wearing one of each item is said to bring luck and fortune to the newly married couple.Have you ever stopped to think what the saying really means？What is its origin and what does each item represent?The original saying dates back to the Victoria times and states，“something old，something new，something borrowed，something blu e and a silver sixpence in your shoe.”Something old A bride may wear or carry something old to represent her continued ties to her family and her old life.Many brides wear a piece of family jewelry as their old item.Some brides wear the wedding dress worn by their mother or grandmother.In many cases，something old may also be something borrowed.Something new Wearing something new is supposed to represent success and hope in the bride's new life and in her marriage.If the bride purchases her wedding dress，it may represent her new item，but any item that is new may be used.Something“new” is usually the easiest kind to fill.Something borrowed The borrowed item should be something borrowed from a friend that is happily married.It is said that their happiness will rub off on you and bring lasting happiness to your marriage.Some brides borrow an item of clothing，a piece of jewelry，a handkerchief or perhaps a beaded(饰以珠子的)purse.Something blue Wearing something blue dates back to ancient times when a blue wedding dress was worn to represent purity，fidelity and love.A silver sixpence Placing a silver sixpence in the bride's left shoe is said to be a symbol of wealth.This not only refers to financial wealth，but also a wealth of happiness and joy throughout her married life.Since most brides probably don't even know what a sixpence is，this part of the tradition is not used very often in modern times.However，if a bride would like to include it in her wedding，she can purchase a silver sixpence from many companies that sell bridal supplies such as garters (袜带)and invitations.1．Why does the first paragraph end with two questions?A．To invite readers to answer them at once.B．To show the importance of this tradition.C．To have readers' interest and attention.D．To test readers' knowledge about wedding.2．Which of the following statements is TRUE?A．Something old might also be something borrowed actually.B．The part of the tradition“a silver sixpence”is never used now.C．The borrowed item can be something borrowed from any friend.D．Something new is usually the most difficult and expensive kind to fill.3．What can we infer from the passage?A．No brides now are not familiar with the silver sixpence.B．Every item represents something good for the new couple.C．The bride will be more beautiful with all these five items.D．Of the five items，something blue is the most important one.4．Which word can replace the underlined word“fidelity” in the sixth paragraph?A．Success. B．Wealth.C．Loyalty. D．Opportunity.【解题导语】本文是一篇总分结构的说明文，介绍了西方一种传统的婚礼习俗的起源和含义。

My mother has always lived by some simple rules:Go to church every Sunday,help people in need,and don’t worry about unchangeable things.These simple rules have allowed her to live a content life,and in doing so,she sets an example for her children to follow.However,I had broken all of these rules by the time I set off for college.It was September,and I should have been ecstatic as I stood on my college campus saying goodbye to my parents and embarking my new independent life.However,I was just quietly crying.I had never been away from home without family.My mom hugged me,“Little girl,we’ll come back to get you next weekend and you can come home for a visit!”My homesickness made my freshman year in college difficult,and I comforted myself by throwing myself into my academics.I spent all my time studying,including weekends when everyone else attended parties.I had always been a good student.I would not settle anything but an A,and when I got a 4.0 my first semester,a frie nd said to me,“That’s great,but you can only go down from there!” Suddenly,I was more driven than ever.My mom was worried about my social life.She was happy that I got good grades but had always told me there was more to life.What about faith?What about helping others?She encouraged me to go to church.She believed that weekly attendance was the answer to my pathetic social situation.Sometimes,I find myself being critical (批评的) of my mother’s simple ways.It’s difficult with busy schedules to go to church every Sunday.And while I admire my mom’s ability to help anyone in need,I complain that I do not have as much time as I wish to follow her example.Her simple rules have served her well,and though I don’t follow them as much as I should,they are there like a beacon(灯塔),calling for me to follow.1.The underlined word “ecstatic” in Paragraph 2 probably means____.A.tearyB.excitedC.homesickD.sad2.What can we infer from the third paragraph?A.The author didn’t like any social activities.B.The author was angry with what her friend said.C.The author had a difficult time learning in college.D.The author couldn’t adapt to university life at first.3.What is the author’s opinion about her mother’s life rules?A.She values the rules because they are guiding in her life.B.She ignores the rules because they are meaningless to her.C.She supports the rules because they are suitable for her.D.She disapproves the rules because they are difficult to follow.参考答案：1.B; 2.D; 3.A解析：作者母亲的生活法则虽然简单,但却蕴含人生智慧,就像灯塔,指引作者在人生道路上前进。

Taylore is a kid who passes by to ride sometimes and help us with chores. Barely 15, she’s never short of advice, and one of her favorite pastimes is teasing me about being afraid to go too fast on a horse.Last summer four of us rode down the trail behind our woods: my wife Karen, Taylore, Taylore’s friend Kendall and me. I was riding my 13-year-old, Tawny.We were two miles from home when, for some unexplainable reason, I pushed Tawny into a gallop（飞驰）. The other horses were anxious to catch up, and just like that, the race was on.Taylore brushed past my left leg and, seconds later, Kendall went by on my right.I realized Tawny was covering ground faster than I’d ever seen her. She strained ever y muscle in her body to catch up with the girls. It was like a truck winding over a mountain road without brakes (闸). Part of me felt perfectly in control, while another part screamed that I wasn’t.In half a mile I knew we’d be crossing the highway, so I prayed that the girls would be fine. I gave up calculating how long it might take before my horse would be tried enough to want to slow down.I was just about out of answers when I saw the girls slowing in front of me. Their horses were relaxed and comfortable, not even breathing hard. Taylore’s face glowe d. She gave me a high five. ＂Wow, you did well, ＂she said. ＂I knew you’d go fast when you were ready.＂No one in the group had even broken a sweat, except me. I was still nervous from the crazy pace. My heart pounded too, but not from exercise. Karen claims I was showing off for the girls that day, and maybe she’s right. But I think I had something to prove. Because despite my wrinkles (皱纹), glasses and gray hair, I was feeling young at heart. And, lik e a horse on a warm summer day, I’m always ready to kick up my heels.1.

On Christmas Eve, 1944, my grandmother urged my uncle, then 12 years old, to slip out of the concentration camp where they were imprisoned near 15 miles east of Vienna to go to Deutsch-Wagram. “People are charitable around Christmastime,”Grandma Lili said to her son, Gyuri. “Ask for some food. Anything they can spare. Tell them that we’re on the edge of starvation. Tell them that your 3-year-old sister can not get off the bed because she’s outgrown her shoes.”In the dark of that night, Gyuri secretly left the camp and walked nearly four miles to Deutsch-Wagram, the closest town. He happened upon a house and knocked on the front door. A woman opened that door. She was probably alone, her man far away, fighting in the war, her children asleep in their beds. The 12-year-old pieced together in German exactly what his mother had told him to say.“Come back tomorrow," whispered the woman. The next day, my uncle returned. The woman opened the door with a smile. She piled his hands with bread, clothing, a pair of shoes that her child had outgrown and a pair of socks. The woman had knitted warm socks for my mother. After putting on the socks and shoes that fit, my mother got off the bed in delight. Her ragged shoes were passed on to a younger child who was also living in the camp. They shared their unexpected harvest with the entire camp. It was a quiet celebration of human kindness around Christmastime.In April 1945, my mother, uncle and grandmother were liberated. And it was those very socks and shoes that my mother wore as she walked some 28 miles over two days to Bratislava on her walk to a new life.To the unknown giver, I thank you. In the desperation of a cold and snowy land, when many hearts were closed and death was more likely than life, especially forJews, you gave them hope and comfort.1.What did Gyuri manage to do on Christmas Eve?A. Get permitted to go out.B. Receive food and clothing.C. Express what his family needed.D. Celebrate Christmas in the camp2.Why does the author mention shoes so many times?A. To prove the truth of the story.B. To help the development of the story.C. To attract readers’ attention to the story.D. To make clear the background of the story.3.What feeling did the author write the text with?A. DesperationB. Gratefulness.C. ExcitementD. Sorrow.4.What is the passage mainly about?A. Light in darknessB. Peace to common peopleC. Courage in face of dangerD. The influence of Christmas【文章大意】本文是一篇记叙文。

B．China.C．India. D．USA.【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了中国、俄罗斯、印度和美国的登月计划.【难句分析】It is currently working an a project whose idea is that the landers will explore the south pole of the Moon，exploring for resources such as minerals and water ice to be used to provide for a human outpost(前哨站)．分析：该句为主从复合句.句中whose idea is that the landers will explore the south pole of the Moon，exploring for resources such as minerals and water ice to be used to provide for a human outpost(前哨站)为whose引导的定语从句，修饰先行词a project；该定语从句中含有that引导的表语从句.译文：当前(俄罗斯)正启动一项工程，其思路是登陆器将探索月球的南极，寻找矿物质和水冰等资源以供人类前哨站使用.1．C 考查细节理解.根据第二段第三句“Named Chang'e 4, the mission is scheduled to touch down in the Aitken Basin near the end of 20xx”可知，嫦娥四号将在20xx年底降落在月球Aitken Basin地区.据此可知，中国的下一步空间计划是嫦娥四号登月，故C项正确.根据第三段第二句“It is currently working on a project whose idea is that the landers will explore the s outh pole of the Moon”可知，探索月球南极是俄罗斯的计划，而不是中国的计划，故D项错误；A、B项文中没有提及.2．B 考查细节理解.根据第四段第三句“But when the Russians failed to deliver the promised lander in 20xx, India decided to go it alone”可知，由于俄罗斯没能给印度提供着陆器，故印度决定自己实施登月计划，故B项正确.根据第四段第二句“Chandrayaan­2 was meant to cooperate with Russia”可知，印度Chandrayaan­2任务计划和俄罗斯合作完成，故A项错误；根据第四段第三句可知，俄罗斯没能给印度提供着陆器，而不是拒绝合作，故C项错误；D项文中没有提及.3．A 考查细节理解.根据第三段第二句“It is currently working on a project whose idea is that the landers will explore the south pole of the Moon，exploring for resources such as minerals and water ice to be used to provide for a human outpost(前哨站)”可知，当前俄罗斯正启动一项工程，其思路是登陆器将探索月球的南极，寻找矿物质和水冰等资源以供人类前哨站使用.故A项正确.二、单句语法填空1．Every year a flood of farmers arrive in Shenzhen for the money­making jobs they ________(promise) be fore.答案：have been promised 由主句谓语动词的时态及从句的时间副词before可知，本从句的谓语动词应用现在完成时，且they 和promise之间存在被动关系，故填have been promised.2．________(person), I think he is a very good man, but you may not agree.答案：Personally 副词personally “就我个人而言”，相当于personally speaking.3．It won't be long ________we know the result of the experiment.答案：before It won't be long before ... “不久之后就……”，是固定句式.4．He was ________(total) uninterested in sports.答案：totally 应用副词修饰形容词uninterested，故填totally.5．An hour later, I woke up suddenly with the ________(solve) clearly in mind.答案：solution 由空前the可知此处应用名词solution “解决方法”.6．A man stood up and crossed his arms over his head, ________ (signal) that he was strongly opposed.答案：signalling 句中已有谓语动词stood和crossed，由空前逗号知应用非谓语动词形式，且signal与逻辑主语A man之间是主动关系，且signal和句子谓语stood up及crossed所表示的动作同时发生，因此填signalling.7．Several problems like those ________(arise) at the power plant so far.答案：have arisen 由“so far”可知应用现在完成时.8．The students are looking forward to having an opportunity ________(explore) society for real­life experience.答案：to explore have an opportunity to do sth. “有机会做某事”.9．The law needs to be ________(simple)．答案：simplified need to do sth. “需要做某事”，由设空前的be动词及句意可知，此处需用动词的过去分词构成被动语态，故填simplified.10．We received 400 ________(apply) for the job.答案：applications 由修饰限定词400可知，此处应填名词，且用其复数形式.三、完形填空阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可能填入空白处的最佳选项.I lived in Dallas，Texas nearly all my life with my dad，mom and younger brother.We were raised to __1__ others，value education，and get all that we could out of life.My parents always say，“Work __2__ and

D．continue【解题导语】爸爸、妈妈、弟弟和“我”住在达拉斯，父母教育我们要尊重别人，重视教育，他们的爱和鼓励对“我”意义重大.1．B 根据全文内容可知，父母教育我们要尊重别人，重视教育.respect意为“尊敬，尊重”，符合语境.2．A 父母总是教育我们：“努力工作，世界就是你们的.”故选A.3．D 当生活变得艰难时，父母总会给我们有益的建议或一些鼓励.never without为双重否定，表示肯定的意思.4．B 参见上题解析.a helpful word of advice表示“有用的建议”.5．A 参见3题解析.tough“艰难的，艰苦的”.6．D 根据该段中的“Thankfully, they persuaded me”可知，父母一直期望“我”上大学并最终说服了“我”.expect“期望，期待”.7．A

takes many valuable resources with it.Waste water is rich in carbon and nutrients.__2__ A number of nations and major cities have already built waste water treatment plants.They can effectively recover nutrients and bioenergy，and produce “new water” that can be reused.But more than 80% of all waste water still currently flows into natural ecosystems，polluting the environment and taking valuable nutrients and other recoverable materials with it.__3__ This is still better than the situation in smaller cities.In Latin American countries，those living in small and medium­sized cities at most treat it in the form of septic tanks (化粪池)that lack regular and proper maintenance.Imagine that outside one of these small cities lies a lovely piece of land：on the surface it is pleasingly built and provides habitats for local wildlife.Beneath the surface is a wetland that treats waste water and produces energy.The energy produced saves families from having to use firewood collected in the wild.This is not a dream project.__4__ A team of scientists have been looking into the potential of constructed wetland environments.Having analyzed 800 examples of biomass in more than 20 countries，they found that，depending on climate and the type of plant used in the construction of this type ofwetland，up to 45 hectares of land could be irrigated with waste water.__5__A．But that is exactly what we do.B．This can provide easy access to clean water.C．There is no longer any good reason to waste any type of water.D．A constructed wetland environment is already in practice on a small scale.E．This would reduce the need for fresh water for irrigation and energy for pumping.F．If collected and treated properly，it could provide “new water”，fertilizer，and energy.G．Although waste water systems in large cities are effective，the whole procedure usually costs much.【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了当前世界水资源的现状以及有效利用水资源的方法.1．A 上文说在水资源短缺的大环境下，很多国家不能承担浪费(的后果)，下文说我们用完水后，就直接把水冲走.根据上下文可知，A项“但是那正是我们所做的”与此处匹配，起承上启下作用，故选A.2．F 上文说废水富含碳元素和养分，而F项说如果收集和处理得当，它就能提供“新的水”、肥料和能量，前后形成语义上的衔接，故选F.3．G 下文讲述的是拉丁美洲的中小城市的废水处理系统缺乏常规和合适的维护，而G项提到大城市的废水处理系统有效但成本高，与本段内容吻合，故选G.4．D 上文提到在这些小城市建造湿地环境的设想，下文提到已经有科学家在研究建造的湿地环境的潜力了，由此可知，D项“建造的湿地环境已经在小范围的实践中了”符合语境.5．E 上文讲述的是这种解决方案的另一种好处是人们可以用废水灌溉农田，而E说这可以减少用淡水灌溉的需求及抽水所需的能量，前后语义衔接，故选E.。

When it's five o'clock，people leave their office.The length of the workday，for many workers，is defined by time.They leave when the clock tells them they're done.These days，the time is everywhere：not just on clocks or watches，but on cellphones and computers.That may be a bad thing，particularly at work.New research shows that clock­based work schedules hinder morale(士气)and creativity.Clock­timers organize their day by blocks of minutes and hours.For example：a meeting from 9 a．m.to 10 a．m.，research from 10 a．m.to noon，etc.On the other hand，task­timers have a list of things they want to accomplish.They work down the list；each task starts when the previous task is completed.It is said that all of us employ a mix of both these types of planning.What，then，are the effects of thinking about time in these different ways？Does one make us more productive？Better at the tasks at hand？Happier? In experiments conducted by Tamar Avnet and Anne­Laure Sellier，they had participants organize different activities—from project planning，holiday shopping，to yoga—by time or to­do list to measure how they performed under “clock time” vs.“task time”．They found clock­timers to be more efficient but less happy because they felt little control over their liv es.Task­timers are happier and more creative，but less productive.They tend to enjoy the moment when something good is happening，and seize opportunities that come up.The researchers argue that task­based organizing tends to be undervalued and under­support ed in business culture.Smart companies，they believe，will try to bake more task­based planning into their strategies.This might be a small change to the way we view work and the office，but the researchers argue that it challenges a widespread characteristic of the economy：work organized by clock time.While most people will still probably need，and be，to some extent，clock­timers，task­based timing should be used when they are performing a job that requires more creativity.It'll make those tasks easier，and the task­doers will be happier.1．What is the way people often do their work according to the author?A．They give priority to the most urgent task on hand.B．They set a time limit for each specific task.C．They combine clock­based and task­based planning.D．They accomplish their tasks one by one.2．What did the researchers find in their experiments on clock­timers?A．They tend to be more productive.B．They seize opportunities as they come up.C．They always get their work done in time.D．They have more control over their lives.3．What is the researchers' opinion about today's business culture?A．It does not support the strategies adopted by smart companies.B．It attaches more importance to work efficiency than to workers' lives.C．It aims to bring employees' potential and creativity into full play.D．It does not lay enough emphasis on task­based practice.4．From the passage，we can conclude that ________.A．it is important to keep a balance between work and lifeB．task­based timing is preferred for doing creative w orkC．performing creative jobs tends to make workers happierD．a scientific standard should be adopted in job evaluation【解题导语】本文是一篇对时钟型和任务型两种工作方式的研究报告。

My mother has always lived by some simple rules:Go to church every Sunday,help people in need,and don’t worry about unchangeablethings.These simple rules have allowed her to live a content life,and in doing so,she sets an example for her children to follow.However,I had broken all of these rules by the time I set off for college.It was September,and I should have been ecstatic as I stood on my college campus saying goodbye to my parents and embarking my new independent life.However,I was just quietly crying.I had never been away from home without family.My mom hugged me,“Little girl,we’ll come back to get you next weekend and you can come home for a visit!”My homesickness made my freshman year in college difficult,and I comforted myself by throwing myself into my academics.I spent all my time studying,including weekends when everyone else attended parties.I had always been a good student.I would not settle anything but an A,and when I got a 4.0 my first semester,a frie nd said to me,“That’s great,but you can only go down from there!” Suddenly,I was more driven than ever.My mom was worried about my social life.She was happy that I got good grades but had always told me there was more to life.What about faith?What about helping others?She encouraged me to go to church.Shebelieved that weekly attendance was the answer to my pathetic social situation.Sometimes,I find myself being critical (批判的) of my mother’s simple ways.It’s difficult with busy schedules to go to church every Sunday.And while I admire my mom’s ability to help anyone in need,I complain that I do not have as much time as I wish to follow her example.Her simple rules have served her well,and though I don’t follow them as much as I should,they are there like a beacon(灯塔),calling for me to follow.1.The underlined word “ecstatic” in Paragraph 2 probably means____.A.tearyB.excitedC.homesickD.sad2.What can we infer from the third paragraph?A.The author didn’t like any social activities.B.The author was angry with what her friend said.C.The author had a difficult time learning in college.D.The author couldn’t adapt to university life at first.3.What is the author’s opinion about her mother’s life rules?A.She values the rules because they are guiding in her life.B.She ignores the rules because they are meaningless to her.C.She supports the rules because they are suitable for her.D.She disapproves the rules because they are difficult to follow.参考答案：1.B; 2.D; 3.A解析：作者母亲的生活法则虽然简单,但却包含人生智慧,就像灯塔,指引作者在人生道路上前进。
