Gradually, however, the number of nails that were driven into the fence each day reduced. Before long the boy had noticed that it was easier to hold his temper than to drive all those nails into the fence.Finally, the day arrived when the boy did not lose his temper at all. “I’m not angry any more, Papa!” said the boy. “Very well, then! Why don’t you pull one nail out for every day that you can hold your temper?” And then one day the nails on the fence were all gone.Now the father took his son’s hands and led him to the fence.“Y ou have done well, my son. But look at all those holes in the fence. This fence will never be the same again. That’s how it is when you say thingsin anger. The words leave scars, like the ones in this fence. Put a knife in a man and then take it out. It doesn’t matter how many times you apologize afterwards, that wound is still there!”A verbal wound is as bad as a physical one. So there cannot be any good reason for your acting in such a manner as to hurt another. Friends are very important in our lives. They can make you smile and encourage you to succeed.56. From the passage we can conclude that _________.A. hammering nails into the fence can stop a person losing his temperB. saying sorry is just like hammering nails into the fenceC. losing one’s temper may do harm to your friends foreverD. it is easier to lose one’s temper than to hold one’s temper57. According to the passage, the “scars” (paragraph 5) probably means “_________”.A. the wound in one’s bodyB. the harm you have done to a friendC. the wound you leave to a personD. the hole you leave in the fence58. It is suggested in the passage that _________.A. you should hammer nails in the fence when you lose your temperB. you should hold your temper and not hurt your friendsC. you should always make your friends laughD. you say sorry to your friends when you lose your temperBMany grown-ups worry that spending too much time playing video games isn’t good for a kid’s health. But some doctors have noticed that kids who bring their game players to the hospital seem less worried about being there. They also seem to feel less pain when they are giving all their attention on a car race or other games.At a children’s center in Baltimore, Maryland, young kids are finding hospital visits easier to deal with, thanks to a test program called HOPE. Patients in HOPE have a life-threatening condition where their kidneys(肾) no longer get rid of wastes from their blood. To get their blood cleaned, these kids must use the dialysis (透析) machines at the hospital three times a week, for at least three hours each time.HOPE allows kids to play Internet sports, racing, and other games with each other. They will be able to connect with kids in other hospitals who have the same problem.“We want to use the Internet to bring together kids who are ill, and let them know they are not alone,” said Arun Mathews, the doctor of theprogram. He loved video games himself and got the idea to connect kids all over the country.Many researchers elsewhere are testing video programs that might help young patients. For example, nine-year-old Ben Duskin of San Francisco, California, who was struggling with cancer helped to design a video game where players got rid of cancer cells.That’s all great news, because doctors already know that reducing pain and worry helps patients heal(痊愈) faster.59. According to the passage, the sick kids may feel less pain when they_________.A. use the dialysis machinesB. are in a car raceC. are playing video gamesD. stay alone with illness60. HOPE allows the sick kids to play Internet games in order to_________.A. get rid of their pain and worryB. encourage them to fight against the illnessC. let the kids make more friendsD. bring the kids in the country together61. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. Grown-ups all think video games are bad for kids’ health.B. Some doctors think video games may help the sick kids reduce pain.C. The HOPE is a famous organization all over the world.D. Arun Mathews is against the testing program.62. Which can be the best title for the passage?A. Video Games Are Bad for HealthB. Video Games May Help Reduce PainC. A Famous American OrganizationD. HOPE Allows Kids to Play Online GamesCWendy was sitting by her bedroom window, wondering what she was going to do for the summer vacation. Just then her mother came into the room. “What’s the matter, Wendy? Why are you so sad?” her mother asked. “Mommy, I can’t decide what to do this summer. I know I can play outside and go swimming in Grandma’s pool, but what else can I do?”Her Mom thought and thought. Then she said, “I have an idea. There’s a really nice lady living down the street. She is a friend of mine. She lives alone with her four cats. Her family lives far away. I think it would be nice if you would visit her once in a while this summer.”The next day Wendy and her mother went down the street to see the lady. She was Mrs. Martin. She and Wendy seemed to like each other right away.Wendy told her that she would spend three days visiting her. On her first visit, Mrs. Martin told her that there was a dollhouse upstairs. Wendy had a lot of fun playing with all the dolls, and the dollhouse was furnished and decorated. She loved going to Mrs. Martin’s.When summer was just about to end, Mrs. Martin told her that one of her cats was going to have kittens (小猫) and as soon as they were ready, she could pick one out for herself. Wendy would miss her visits to Mrs. Martin’s. She promised that she would see her as often as she could.Later that year, Wendy went to visit. Mrs. Martin let her pick out her kitten. She picked out a little brown kitten. Do you know what she named her? She named her “Summer” because that’s when she met her best friend.63. Wendy felt sad because she_______.A. had to visit a friend of her motherB. had nothing to do but stay at homeC. couldn’t play outside and go swimmingD. couldn’t think of something new to do64. Why did Wendy love going to Mrs. Martin’s?A. Because she liked Mrs. Martin.B. Because Mrs. Martin was very kind.C. Because there were lots of dolls and a dollhouse.D. Because she could play with cats.65. What can be inferred from the passage?A. Mrs. Martin was fond of cats.B. Wendy was the only child in the family.C. Wendy’s mother is not a good mother.D. Parents should care about their children.第四部分写作（共两节，满分25分）第一节阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）Body language can be read by each person through watching the facial expressions, hand gestures, posture, and leg movements made by another person.How many times have you cleared your throat, bitten your fingernails, wrung your hands, or paced the floor? These are all body signs of nervousness. Confidence（自信）, or a feeling of power, on the other hand, can be seen in a person when they lock their fingers together and place them behind their heads or backs. If a person keeps the distance, this usually means he is either shy or nervous. This is also true with a person who won’t look you in the eye or who keeps his face down. This means either he is telling a lie, or he is nervous.Smiles are normally regarded as showing happiness, affection, and honesty,but be careful when a person smiles through clenched-teeth, or smiles in atight-lipped manner. These are forced smiles and perhaps they want to fool you.How many times have you shaken hands with a person? Sometimes the other person will grasp your hand in a strong manner and shake it firmly. Or you feel like you’re shaking a wet noodle. The strong, firm handshake is usually given by a person who is sure and _________________. The wet noodle-type shake is usually the opposite. People who give these types of handshakes are nervous, shy, insecure, or afraid of interaction（交往）with other people.It is important to read the body language and not just listen to the words that are said. Because no matter what words you are hearing, remember that sometimes, “Actions can speak louder than words.”66. What is the best title of the passage? (Please answer within 10 words.)67. Which sentence in the passage can be replaced by the following one?Or sometimes you shake a soft and sweaty hand.68. Please fill in the blank in paragraph 4 with proper words or phrases to complete the sentence (Please answer within 10 words). 69. Do you know another kind of body language? Explain its meaning (Please answer within 30 words).70. Translate the underlined sentence in the last paragraph into Chinese.第二节书面表达（满分15分）假如你是李华，昨天学校为你们举办了十八岁成人仪式。

人教版高一英语必修四Unit3检测试题及答案（2）

人教版高一英语必修四Unit3检测试题及答案(2)第二部分阅读理解(共两节，满分40分)第一节(共15小题，每小题2分，满分30分)AMany years ago my student asked me the question, "Mrs. Kindred, why do you teach?" Without taking time to reflect, I answered, "Because someday I might say something that might make a difference in someone's life." Even though I was sincere, that wasn't a very good answer and my student didn't let it slide."Let me get this straight," he said, "You went to college for four years so you could come here every day because you have the hope that someday you might say something that will influence someone?" He shook his head as if I were crazy and walked away looking confused . I'm one of those people who look back and wish they had said something smart or witty, or swift.Even though that particular student might no longer wonder why I teach, there are days when I wonder. On those days, I remind myself of the real reasons I teach:It's in my blood. My mother was my most influential teacher, and she was a 6th grade reading teacher until her death in 1990. She instilled(逐渐灌输) in me a love of reading and the knowledge that education opens doors.Teaching is a way to make a difference. If you throw a stone in a pond the ripples go on and on until they reach the shore. You can't have ripples without a "stone." Good teachers throw stones that make a positive difference, and that's what I strive to do.I genuinely love teenagers.I want to share with others what I know and what I have learned through the years. Life is full of ups and downs, and if I can help students avoid some potholes on the road of life, I want to do so. If they'll allow me to celebrate their victories with them, I want to do too.Teaching isn't for everyone, but I know I made the right career choice.46. Why did the student continue to ask the question about the writer’s being a teacher?A. Because he thought her answer was unbelievable.B. Because the writer was insincere.C. Because the student was naughty.D. Because the answer was difficult to understand.47. What do you think of the writer?A. Stupid.B. Honest.C. Conservative.D. Polite.48. According to the text, which of the following is NOT true?A. The writer’s mother has the greatest influence on her.B. The writer’s answer made the student confused.C. In the writer’s opinion, some people in the world are unfit to teach.D. The writer annoyed the student who asked the question.49. We can infer from the text that _________.A. the writer was also a good teacher in schoolB. the writer often plays with her students beside a pondC. the writer devotes herself to teaching and her studentsD. the writer often accompanies the students on their way homeBAmong various programs, TV talk shows have covered every inch of space on daytime television. And anyone who watchesthem regularly knows that each one is different in style. But no two shows are more opposite in content, while at the same time standing out above the rest, than the Jerry Springer and Oprah Winfrey shows.Jerry Springer could easily be considered the king of "rubbish talk". The topics on his show are as surprising as can be. For example, the show takes the ever-common talk show titles of love, sex, cheating, and hate, to a different level. Clearly, the Jerry Springer show is about the dark side of society, yet people are willing to eat up the troubles of other people's lives.Like Jerry Springer, Oprah Winfrey takes the TV talk show to its top. But Oprah goes in the opposite direction. The show is mainly about the improvement of society and different quality of life. Contents are from teaching your children lessons, managing your work week, to getting to know your neighbors.Compared to Oprah, the Jerry Springer show looks like poisonous waste being poured into society. Jerry ends every show with a "final word". He makes a small speech about the entire idea of the show. Hopefully, this is the part where most people will learn something very valuable.Clean as it is, the Oprah show is not for everyone. The show's main audiences are middle-class Americans. Most of the people have the time, money and ability to deal with life's tough problems. Jerry Springer, on the other hand, has more of a connection with the young adults of society. These are 18-to 21year-olds whose main troubles in life include love, relationship, sex, money and drug. They are the ones who see some value and lessons to be learned through the show's exploitation.50. Compared with other TV talk shows, both the Jerry Springer and the Oprah Winfrey shows are ______.A. more interestingB. unusually poplarC. more detailedD. more formal51. Though the social problems Jerry Springer talks about appear unpleasant, people who watch the shows ______.A. show disbelief in themB. are ready to face up to themC. remain cold to themD. are willing to get away from them52. Which of the following is likely to be a topic of the Oprah Winfrey show?A. A new type of robot.B. National hatred.C. Family income planning.D. Street accident.53. W e can learn from the passage that the two talk shows ____.A. have become the only ones of its kindB. exploit the weaknesses in human natureC. appear at different times of the dayD. attract different peopleCCan people change their skin colour without suffering like pop king Michael Jackson? Perhaps yes. Scientists have found the gene that determines skin colour.The gene comes in two versions, one of which is found in 99 per cent of Europeans. The other is found in 93 to 100 per cent of Africans, researchers at Pennsylvania State University report in the latest issue of Science. Scientists have changed the colour of a dark-striped zebrafish to uniform gold by inserting a version of the pigment(色素) gene into a young fish. As with humans, zebrafish skin colour is determined by pigment cells, which contain melanosomes(黑色素). The number, size and darkness of melanosomes per pigment cell determines skin colour.It appears that, like the golden zebrafish, light-skinnedEuropeans also have a mutation(变异) in the gene for melanosome production. This results in less pigmented skin.However, Keith Cheng, leader of the research team, points out that the mutation is dif ferent in human and zebrafish genes.Humans acquired dark skin in Africa about 1.5 million years ago to protect bodies from ultra-violet rays of the sun(太阳光紫外线), which can cause skin cancer.But when modern humans leave Africa to live in northern latitudes, they need more sunlight on their skin to produce vit amin D. So the related gene changes, according to Cheng.Asians have the same version of the gene as Africans, so they pr obably acquired their light skin through the action of some other gene that affects skin colour, said Cheng.The new discovery could lead to medical treatments for skin cancer. It also could lead to research into ways to change skin colour without damaging it like chemical treatment did on Michael Jackson.54. The passage mainly tells us that ________.A. people can not change their skin colour without any painB. the new discovery could lead to search into ways to change skin colour safelyC. pop king Michael Jackson often changed his skin colour as he likedD. scientists have found out that people’s skin colour is determined by the gene55. It can be inferred from the passage that ________.A. nowadays people who want to change their skin colour have to suffer a lot from the damage caused by the chemical treatmentB. Europeans and Africans have the same geneC. the new discovery could help to find medical treatments for skin cancerD. there are two kinds of genes56. Scientists have done an experiment on a dark-striped zebra fish in order to ________.A. find the different genes of humans’B. prove the humans’ skin colour is determined by the pigment geneC. find out the rea son why the Africans’ skin colour is darkD. find out the ways of changing peopl’s skin colour57.

AInterviewer: Good morning to all our listeners. This morning I’m talking to Fran Mason, a clown (小丑) doctor.

We go to children’s hospitals and do all kinds of crazy things to make the sick children laugh.Interviewer: _____Ms Mason: I wear a doctor’s white coat and I pretend to examine a little boy or girl, for example, but then I make funny faces. They love it!Interviewer: Does it help the children to get better?Ms Mason:Oh, yes. But we don’t give the children medicine. We think laughter is the best medicine. It’s very impor tant for them to laugh, smile and enjoy themselves. Interviewer: How long have you been a clown doctor?Ms Mason: For three years. And before I became a clown doctor I taught at our local school for ten years.

Since we did not have many toys, we used rubber bands (橡皮筋) to make a jump rope. Three years ago, when my daughters Michelle and Theresa were 9 and 12 years old, they were making bracelets (手环) using rubber bands. It struck me that I knew how to do that. I like to impress my daughters and show them that their dad is cool, so I tried it too. To my surprise, I couldn’t work with the bands because my fingers were too big.Since I studied engineering, I decided to come up with a solution (解决办法). I ran down to my basement and found a piece of wooden board, some pushpins and hooks (图钉和钩子). With the help of these things, I managed to make a bracelet. One of my daughters said, “Wow, that’s cool, but I can make it by hand.” So I startedto put two, three, four, five rows together. I crossed the bands into diamond patterns using rainbow colors, which is how the Rainbow Loom (彩虹织机) got its name.My daughters were so excited that they showed the bracelets to their friends. We started to get requests for them. But they were still difficult to make. I thought, “If I can make a small, easy-to-use loom, I’m onto something big.” It took six months and a lot of support from my kids to perfect the idea.I tried to sell the loom by making videos about how to use it and taking my daughters to stores to show it. Many store owners thought it might be too difficult to use. For a year, we sold it only on our website. When it became popular with kids, it got noticed by toy stores.It is so exciting that a simple idea my kids and I came up with together at our living-room table has become a nationwide fad.24. The author tried to show his daughters how to make bracelets but _____.A. was refusedB. regrettedC. failedD. was misunderstood25. The author made up his mind to find a method of _____.A. making braceletsB. using a jump ropeC. impressing his daughtersD. inventing the Rainbow Loom26. The underlined word “them” in Paragraph 3 refers to _____.A. loomsB. braceletsC. friendsD. rainbows27. What did store owners think of the author’s invention at first?A. They thought highly of it.B. They had a long wait for it.C. They showed a great interest in it.D. They thought there was no market for it.CLots of kids love video games. In fact, they like them so much that they might hear something like this from Mom or Dad: “Enough! Unplug that thing and find something else to do!”It can be good advice, even if you were just about to crash through to the next level. Why? Too much of anything is just too much. It’s true that some studies have shown certain video games can improve hand-eye coordination (协调性),problem-solving skills, and the mind’s ability to deal with information. But too much video game playing may lead to health problems. It’s hard to get enough active play and exercise if you’re always inside playing video games. And without enough exercise, kids can become overweight. Really overdoing video games also could affect other important stuff, like friendships and how well a kid does in school. And kids who play violent video games might act more aggressively (攻击性地).But here’s the good news: Pl aying video games some of the time can be OK. Just choose quality games and limit screen time — which includes TV, computer, smartphone, and video game time combined — to no more than 2 hours a day.A good game will be the right one for how old you are. Games are graded like movies and your mom or dad can help figure out which ones you should use. If you can choose one that gets you up and moving, that’s even better.You might challenge (挑战) your mom, dad — or even your grandma — to swing the bat (球拍) in a game of baseball or try out some fancy moves in one of the dancing games. Could your grandma be a dancing queen? Time to find out!28. What does the underlined word “Unplug” in Paragraph 1 mean?A. Wait for something.B. Take something back.C. Leave something alone.D. Think about something.29. The second paragraph mainly discusses video games’ _____.A. dos and don’tsB. present and futureC. chances and challengesD. advantages and disadvantages30. For kids who love video games, the author suggests they _____.A. try different kinds of gamesB. stay away from video gamesC. choose games according to their ageD. spend more time on TV than on games31. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. People of all ages can get fun from playing video games.B. Dancing is the best form of relaxation for adults.C. Baseball is a game suitable for all age groups.D. Games are a big challenge for adults.DLiving on mountainous La Gomera, one of Spain’s Canary Islands off West Africa, Juan Cabello takes pride in not using a mobile phone or the Internet to communicate. Like his father and grandfather, he uses Silbo Gomero, a language that is whistled (吹口哨), not spoken, and that can be heard more than two miles away.“I use it for everything: to talk to my wife, to tell my kids something, to find a friend if we get lost in a crowd,” Cabello says. “I also make a living from Silbo, performing daily exhibitions at a restaur ant.”People throughout La Gomera are known to have used Silbo in the past as a way of communicating over long distances. A strong whistle saved farmers from walking over the hills to give messages or news to neighbors. Then came the phone. Nowadays, it’s hard to know how many people still use Silbo. In 1999, it was introduced as a compulsory subject (必修学科) in La Gomera’s primary schools, in an effort to prevent the language from going silent. Now 3,000 students are studying it, but only a few people are believed to be able to communicate fully in the whistling language.“Silbo is said to be the most important cultural heritage (遗产) we have,” said Moises Plasencia, the director of the Canary Islands’ government’s historical heritage department.In fact, litt le is known about Silbo’s origins. Silbo-like whistling has been found in parts of Greece, Turkey, China and Mexico, but none is as developed as Silbo Gomero. One study is looking for signs of Silbo in Venezuela, Cuba and Texas, all places to which Gomerans have gone in the past during hard economic times.“Silbo has many historical and linguistic (语言学上的) values,” Plasencia said. And, as Cabello explains, “It’s good for just about anything except for romance: everyone on the island would hear what you’re saying!”32. Juan Cabello uses Silbo Gomero _____.A. in his daily lifeB. to learn computersC. just to make a livingD. only when eating at restaurants33. What can we learn about Silbo Gomero?A. It first started in Greece.B. It is in danger of dying out.C. It is helpful in keeping secrets.D. It is the oldest way of communicating.34. Plasencia thinks it’s very important to _____.A. know the origins of Silbo GomeroB. find the values of Silbo GomeroC. have more cultural heritagesD. protect Silbo Gomero35. What is mainly described in the text?A. A school’s subject.B. A famous performer.C. An unusual language.D. A mountainous island.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
