Unit 21 Human Biology李仕才【阅读理解】There are two types of people in the world.Although they have equal degree of health and wealth and other comforts of life,one becomes happy and the other becomes unhappy.This arises from the different ways in which they consider things,persons,events and the resulting effects upon their minds.People who are to be happy fix their attention on the convenience of things: the pleasant parts of conversation,the well prepared dishes,the goodness of the wine and the fine weather.They enjoy all the cheerful things.Those who are to be unhappy think and speak only of the opposite things.Therefore,they are continually dissatisfied.By their remarks,they sour the pleasure of society,offend(hurt) many people,and make themselves disagreeable everywhere.If this turn of mind was founded in nature,such unhappy persons would be the more to be pitied.The intention of criticizing(批评) and being disliked is perhaps taken up by imitation(模仿).It grows into a habit,unknown to its possessors.The habit may be strong,but it may be cured when those who have realized its bad effects on their interests and tastes.I hope this little warning may be of service to them,and help them change this habit.Although in fact it is chiefly an act of the imagination,it has serious results in life since it brings on deep sorrow and bad luck.Those people offend many others; nobody loves them,and no one treats them with more than the most common politeness and respect.This frequently puts them in bad temper and draws them into arguments.If they aim at getting some advantages in social position or fortune,nobody wishes them success.Nor will anyone start a step or speak a word to favor their hopes.If they bring on themselves public objections,no one will defend or excuse them,and many will join to criticize their wrongdoings.These should change this bad habit and be pleased with what is pleasing,without worrying needlessly about themselves and others.If they do not,it will be good for others to avoid any contact(接触) with them.Otherwise,it can be disagreeable and sometimes very inconvenient,especially when one becomes mixed up in their quarrels.1.People who are unhappy_____.A.always consider things differently from othersually are affected by the results of certain thingsually misunderstand what others think or sayD.always discover the unpleasant side of certain things2.The phrase “sour the pleasure of society” means “_____ ”.A.have a good taste with social lifeB.make others unhappyC.tend to scold others openlyD.enjoy the pleasure of life3.In this passage,the writer mainly____.A.describes two types of peopleughs at the unhappy peopleC.suggests the unhappy people should get rid of the habits of unhappinessD.tells people how to be happy in life参考答案： 1.D; 2.B; 3.C解析：生活中有些人拥有相同的健康、财富和生活条件,但由于考虑事情、人物、事件的角度不同,一些人感到幸福,而另一些人则感到不幸福。

Unit 21Human Biology目前，科技的发展如此之快已超出了我们的想象，克隆技术成为世界上最先进的技术之一。

针对这一技术，有人支持，有人却反对。

根据下面的表格，用英语写一篇100词左右的文章，并阐述自己的态度和看法。

________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________Science is developing so fast that it is beyond our imagination.Cloning is one of the most advanced technologies.Is it good or bad？Different people have different opinions.Some people are in favor of cloning technology.①They think the technology is of great benefit.Firstly，it can be used to produce valuable tissues and organs that could be used to cure diseases like cancer.Secondly，it can help those who are unable to have a baby but want a baby genetically related to themselves.Besides，it can help those who want to clone their dead relatives.However，a few people object to it.They believe cloning shows no respect for human life，and human life would no longer be unique.More seriously，it would create more diseases in the animal world and cause Earth’s population to increase fast.②In my opinion，although the technique is beneficial to mankind in many aspects，cloning human beings will be at the cost of the existence of mankind itself.根据①句临摹临摹1：许多人赞成这个计划，因为它有益于身体健康。

选修7U21李仕才一、阅读理解ABeijing’s Forbidden City is a place full of wonder. From its thousands of rooms to its many beautiful artifacts, there’s no wonder it’s one of China’s most popular tourist destinations.But even more than 600 years after it was built, it’s still managing to serve up surprises. Since it was built during the Ming Dynasty, it’s estimated that the Forbidden City has survived more than 200 earthquakes. And while most structures aren’t made to survive natural disasters, let alone ones built hundreds of years ago, it seems that the Forbidden City was built to withstand anything.A recent television documentary by UK broadcaster Channel 4 explored the skills of the ancient building’s designers. A group of Chinese carpenters and engineers were shown building a scale model (成比例模型) of one of the Forbidden City’s palaces, at one fifth of the size.To show how strong ancient Chinese architecture really is, the model was put to the test. It was subjected to a simulated (模拟的) earthquake of 9.5 on the Richter scale – equivalent to the largest ever recorded quake – and survived. Instead of falling apart, the model was just moved gently during the test.According to experts, the answer to the Forbidden City’s strength, as well as other ancient Chinese s tructures’, lies in dougong– a centuries-old building method invented in China. This is the name for special brackets on buildings. Despite being held together without any nails or glue, the brackets are perfect at keeping structures together when the weather gets rough.“Dougong design is an important earthquake-resistant feature of classical Chinese structures because the framework changes in shape when under pressure, much like the shock absorbers (减震器) of a car,” according to Chinese National Geography. “Ancient Chinese craftsmen created structures that were both enduring and aesthetically (在美学方面) pleasing using dougong, revealing their advancedunderstanding of mathematics, architecture, materials, and structural science.” The Forbidden City draws visitors because of its rich history and cultural significance, but perhaps it should add one more thing to its list of attractions: earthquake shelter.1. What is the article mainly about?A.What has made the Forbidden City a popular tourist destination.B.What has helped the Forbidden City survive so many earthquakes.C.The characteristics of Chinese architecture during the Ming Dynasty.D.A variety of building methods used in ancient Chinese structures.2. Which of the following can best replace the un derlined phrase “was subjected to” in Paragraph 4?A. sufferedB. was controlled byC. obeyedD. was affected by3. What was the aim of the test in the UK documentary?A. To reproduce a real earthquake from the Ming Dynasty.B. To discover a long-lost Chinese building methodC. To explain the impact of earthquakes on ancient buildings.D. To prove the strength of ancient Chinese architecture.4. What is “dougong” according to the text?A. A paint that gives Chinese buildings an attractive look.B. A tool used by ancient people to measure earth-quakes.C. Special building parts that keep a traditional Chinese building together,D. A building piece located in the center of a traditional Chinese house.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了紫禁城的斗拱设计帮助它能够在多次地震中幸存。

高考英语复习Unit 21Human BiologyⅠ.阅读理解Almost every day we come across situations in which we have to make decisions one way or another.Choice，we are given to believe，is a right.But for a good many people in the world，in rich and poor countries，choice is a luxury，something wonderful but hard to get，not a right.And for those who think they are exercising their right to make choices，the whole system is merely an illusion，a false idea created by companies and advertisers，hoping to sell their products.The endless choices give birth to anxiety in people’s lives.Buying something as basic as a coffee pot is not exactly simple.Easy access to a wide range of everyday goods leads to a sense of powerlessness in many people，ending in the shopper giving up and walking away，or just buying an unsuitable item that is not really wanted.Recent studies in England have shown that many electrical goods bought in almost every family are not really needed.More difficult decision­making is then either avoided or trusted into the hands of the professionals，lifestyle instructors，or advisors.It is not just the availability of the goods that is the problem，but the speed with which new types of products come on the market.Advances in design and production help quicken the process.Products also need to have a short lifespan so that the public can be persuaded to replace them within a short time.The typical example is computers，which are almost out­of­date once they are bought.This indeed makes selection a problem.Gone are the days when one could just walk with ease into a shop and buy one thing; no choice，no anxiety.语篇解读本文主要分析了在面临购物选择时，人们需要作出艰难的决定。
