Some years ago, writing in my diary used to be a usual activity. I would return from school and spend the expected half hour recording the day's events, feelings, and impressions in my little blue diary. I did not really need to express my emotions by way of words, but I gained a certain satisfaction from seeing my experiences forever recorded on pape匚After all, isn't accumulating memories a way of preserving the past?When I was thirteen years old, I went on a long journey on foot in a great valley, well equipped with pens, a diary, and a camera・ During the trip, I was busy recording every incident, name and place I came across. I felt proud to be spending my time productively, dutifiilly preserving for future generations a detailed description of my trave ls. On my last night there, I wandered out of my tent, diary in hand• The sky was clear and lit by the glare of the moon, and the walls of the valley looked threatening behind their screen of shadows・ I automatically took out my pen...At that point, I understood that nothing I wrote could ever match or replace the few seconds I allowed myself to experience the dramatic beauty of the valley. All I remembered of the previous few days were the dull characterizations I had set down in my diary・Now, I only write in my diary when I need to write down a special thought or feeling. I still love to record ideas and quotations that strike me in books, or observations that are particularly meaningful. I take pictures, but not very often only of objects I find really beautiful. Fm no longer blindly satisfied with having something to remember when I grow old. I realize that life will simply pass me by if I stay behind the camera, busy preserving the present so as to live it in the future・I don't want to wake up one day and have nothing but a pile of pictures and notes・ Maybe I won't have as many exact representations of people and places; maybe Fll forget certain facts, but at least the experiences will always remain inside me. I don^ live to make memories-I just live, and the memories form themselves.1.____________________________________________________________ Before the age of thirteen, the author regarded keeping a diary as a way of ______________________________ ・A.observing her school routineB.expressing her satisfactionC.impressing her classmatesD.preserving her history2.What caused a change in the author's understanding of keeping a diary?A.A dull night on the journey.B.The beauty of the great valley・C.A striking quotation from a book.D.Her concerns for future generations・3.What does the author put in her diary now?A.Notes and beautiful pictures.B.Special thoughts and feelings.C.Detailed accounts of daily activities.D.Descriptions of unforgettable events.4.The author comes to realize that to live a meaningful life is _______ ・A.to experience itB.to live the present in the futureC.to make memoriesD.to give accurate representations of it【文章大意】作者曾经把写日记看作保留过去的一种方式，一次山谷旅行的经历让作者对日记的理解发生了变化，现在作者认识到过有意义的生活就是体验生活，而不是记录生活。

ADeborah Cohen is a senior natural scientist at the Rand Corpand the author of the book A Big Fat Crisis: The Hidden Forces Behind the Obesity Epidemic and Ho w We Can End It. According to the book，there are lots of misunderstandings of obesity.1.If you’re obese，blame your genes.Obesity rates have increased. Yet，between 1980 and 2000，the number of Americans who are obese has doubled— too quickly for genetic factors to be responsible.At restaurants，a dollar puts more calories on our plates than ever before，because restaurant meals usually have more calories than what we prepare at home，so people who eat out more frequently have higher rates of obesity than those who eat out less.2.If you’re obese，you lack self- control.Research shows that if we are faced with too much information，we have a tendency to make poor dietary choices. Our world has become so rich in temptation that we can be led to consume too much in ways we can’t understand. Even the most vigilant(警觉的) people may not be up to the task of controlling themselves.ck of access to fresh fruit and vegetables is responsible for obesity.Although the US Department of Agriculture estimates that fewer than 5 percent of Americans live in the “food deserts”，about 65 percent of the nation’s population is overweight or obese. For most of us，obesity is not related to access to more fresh fruit and vegetables，but to the choices we make in supermarkets.4.The problem is not that we eat too much，but that we don’t exercise.Michelle Obama’s “Let’s Move”campaign is based on the idea that if kids exercise more，childhood obesity rates will decrease. But there was no significant decrease in physical activity levels as obesity rates climbed in the 1980s and 1990s. In fact，although a drop in work-related physical activity may account for up to 100 fewer calories burned，leisure physical activity appears to have increased. The problem is that we eat too much.1.The author mentioned Deborah Cohen’s book in Paragraph 1 to________.A.introduce the topicB.draw readers’attentionC.introduce the author of the bookD.advertise the book答案 A解析细节理解题。

课时提升作业二十八选修6Unit 3 A healthy life(限时35分钟)Ⅰ. 阅读理解Popular culture often shows alcohol as a big part of the college experience in the United States. Television programs and movies about American college life have images of wild parties with young people either drinking alcohol or holding a drink.Now, a new study of alcohol use suggests that some college students may be missing meals so they can have more drinks or get drunk faster. Researchers are calling this kind of behavior “drunkorexia”.The study involved 1, 184 college students between the ages of 18 and 26. Researchers found that 80 percent of those studied had demonstrated some kind of drunkorexia in the past three months. They had performed heavy physical exercise, eaten low calorie meals or even missed meals for up to a full day before drinking alcohol.Dipali Rinker organized the study and presented its findings to the Research Society on Alcoholism in June. She says students see drunkorexia as a way to keep their body weight down while drinking alcohol. And it causes them to feel the effects of alcohol quickly and with more intensity(强度). Rinker says unhealthy eating habits are only one of the reasons why this type of behavior is dangerous. Heavy drinking islinked to drunk driving, unprotected sex, and alcohol poisoning.George Koob, who directs a U. S. governmental agency that studies alcohol related problems, says that the percent of students using alcohol has not increased in recent years. But what worries him is that the number of st udents drinking to the point of “blacking out” has increased. Blacking out is when a person drinks so much alcohol he has no memory of his actions when drunk.Koob notes that college students in Canada and Europe also face issues with alcohol. But he feels a big part of the problem is that Americans do not fully understand alcohol’s effects. Most people do not know the part of the brain where decisions are made is not fully developed until age 25 and that alcohol harms the development of that part of the brain, he adds.【文章大意】文章描述美国大学生饮酒过量的现象, 以及饮酒过量所带来的后果。

Mothers' importance shows in family all year long.B. The sacrifices mothers make are huge but worthwhile.C. Mothers' devotion to children can hardly be calculated.D. Investing time in parenting would bring a financial return.7.What can we conclude from the study？A. Mothers' working hours should be largely reduced.B. Mothers should balance their time for work and rest.C. Mothers' labour is of a higher value than it is realised.D. Mothers should be freed from housework for social life.I was almost 10 years old the first time I remembered to move to a new house.One of the things that troubled me most was that I had to leave in the middle of a book.Our fourth grade teacher, Mrs.Rice, was reading aloud to our fourth grade class from Laura Ingalls Wilder's Little House on the Prairie—a few pages each day.I was a child in the fifties and sixties, long before the television series started Michael Landon and Melissa Gilbert, so I couldn't just pick up on the story on the black－and－white television in our new living room.I must have told my teacher how sad I was to leave in the middle of Laura's story, which I'd grown to love.Mrs.Rice, in all her wisdom, told me she was sure the book would be waiting in the library in my new town.She said I should go there once we got settled, check it out and finish reading it.The move was not among the easiest I've made in my lifetime.The new teacher was certainly no Mrs.Rice, and with a few fortunate exceptions, the new kids weren't like the friends I'd left behind.My mother knew the comfort I'd found in books through the years—beginning with the first one I remember her reading to me, Robert Louis Stevenson's A Child's Garden of V erses.So, in her wisdom, she loaded my siblings and me in the car and took us to the Carnegie－style library in our new town.Over the next five decades, I moved more than a half－dozen times, but one thing was constant in each community—the library was one place where I always felt at home and was never worried about what people thought of the “new kid”．8.What does the author intend to tell readers in the passage？A. Books are of great influence.B. Mrs.Rice is a good teacher.C. He is terribly tired of moving.D. His family lives a life of unrest.9.The author felt upset about the first move ____.A. because he had to say good－bye to Mrs.RiceB. because he lost contact with Laura Ingalls WilderC. because he couldn't finish the book he likedD. because he had no chance to watch TV10.What advice did the author get from Mrs.Rice？A. Take Laura's story with him everywhere.B. Laura's story isn't the best one in the world.C. He'd better settle down in a local library.D. Pay a visit to the local library as possible.11.After settling in a new home, the author ____.A. would find many such good teachers as Mrs.RiceB. was able to get on well with his classmatesC. would make a great fortune in lifeD. looked kind of blue to a certain extentThe United Nations reports global warming is reducing rainfall and increasing temperatures in most of the world's deserts.A report suggests the changes are hurting many who farm on desert edges.In West Africa, the effects are serious and making the food produced there not enough.Those living in farming regions along the Sahel desert have found their arable(适于耕种的) land is decreasing as desert sands cover more areas.The town of Podor once was a place where grains grew and cattle ate grass.But now, the people who live there say food is becoming harder and harder to get.The reason is the advancing desert.Oumar Samba Kane is one of the leaders of his village.He carries a bag of grains from a neighbouring village to add to his village's nearly empty storeroom.“In the past years, we had enough food to last a year and we would sell the surplus(剩余) to make money，” Kanesaid.“Now we do not even have enough for ourselves.” Rivers once us ed for fishing and watering cattle are drying up.Pieces of green land are few and far between.Cows are basic food in the area, but now herders(牧人) must drive their cattle for days to look for grass.Crops have also suffered.And for the most part it is only older farmers, like Moussa Aliou Sow, who stay behind to try to do farm work.“I'm 67 years old，” Sow said, “All I know is agriculture.There is nothing else I can do.” He says his hands are tired of growing crops on the land, which is producing less and less.There used to be rice in these fields just a few years ago.Scientists blame not only global warming, but also farming practices such as clearing trees and over planting crops for the desert's advance.But farmers say they can't survive without farming.12.From the passage we know that global warming ____.A. has reduced rainfall worldwideB. has increased temperatures everywhereC. has made the lives of many farmers on desert edges harderD. has caused many deaths in West Africa13.There isn't enough food in the town of Podor mainly because ____.A. there are not enough farmers thereB. a lot of farming land has become desertC. farmers are tired of growing crops on the landD. a lot of farmland has been used to plant grass14.What were things like in Oumar Samba Kane's village in the past？A. The villagers had more than enough food to eat and could sell the rest for money.B. The villagers had to borrow food from a neighbouring village.C. Cattle couldn't get enough water because all rivers were dry.D. Herders drove their cattle for days to find green land.15.The passage mainly talks about ____.A. villagers' life in West AfricaB. climate changes in the worldC. the development of farmingD. the effect of the advancing desert二、完形填空______ swung between what she was going to do with her life and their dinner plans for the evening, she was unexpectedly ______ by an urgent call from her sister “Get over here!

to get the benefits of quitting.If you’ve tried to quit before and failed，it’s time to make up your mi nd and try again.Smoking is responsible for one of every five deaths.That includes 29% of all cancer deaths,87% of all lung cancer deaths，and nearly 20% of all deaths are from cardiovascular disease.But long before smoking kills you，it ages you.You can see that smoking accelerates the drying and wrinkling of the skin.But there are fewer obvious effects as well.Indeed，smoking takes years away from your life.Nearly half of all chronic smokers die an average of 20 to 25 years before their time.Besides an early death from cancer or heart disease，smoking can cause lung disorders.People who smoke over a pack a day have almost three times the risk of contracting pneumonia (肺炎) than that of non­smokers.By lowering levels of estrogen (雌性激素) in men and women，smoking speeds bone less.If a woman smokes a pack of cigarettes every day，she will enter menopause (更年期) with 5% to 10% less bone mass than a non­smoker.The good news is that no matter what your age is or how long you’ve smoked，you’ll live longer if you quit to day.The Coronary Artery Surgery Study examined nearly 2,000 long­term smokers over the age of 54.Those who quit had significantly lower death rates six years later than those who didn’t.Even the oldest ex­smokers had a higher survival rate.Not only will you live longer if you quit，but you’ll feel better，breathe easier，and f ind that you have more energy.You’ll have fewer respiratory infections，headaches，and stomachaches.What’s more，you’ll save money.Your clothes and brea th won’t smell unpleasant a ny longer.And your habit won’t annoy，or threaten the health of the people who live and work with you.1．What is the passage mainly about?A．The ways of

Imagine this scene: it’s blowing outside, and you snuggle (蜷伏) up on the sofa under a warm quilt, chatting and recalling with your closest friends.That content, cosy feeling has a name in Danish —hygge. And, as Denmark recently won the title of “the happiest country in the world”, the concept of hygge is known to more and more people interested in finding ways to understand this concept.Hygge —originally from a Norwegian word meaning well-being —doesn’t have an ex act equivalent (等同物) in English. It’s often translated as coziness, or as blogger Anna West told the BBC, “coziness of the soul”. But, as professor Maren Spark explains, “Hygge was never meant to be translated. It was meant to be felt.”Basically, hygge involves creating a warm, cosy atmosphere and enjoying it with your loved ones. Danish winters are long and dark and so achieving hygge is particularly relevant during this season. A typical Hygge activity during winter could be enjoying delicious homemade food and light-hearted conversation with friends —preferably in the warm glow of candlelight, or maybe sipping a glass of wine in the hot tub after a day spent skiing.However, hygge isn’t only limited to the cold winter months —it can also describe that warm, fuzzy feeling you get after a walk through a forest with friends on summer’s day or a family barbecue in the park. Hygge is meant to be shared.1.The author asks the readers to imagine the scene in the first paragraph to_________ .A. help the readers to calm downB. introduce the topic of the passageC. present the main idea of the passageD. remind the readers of their past memories2.What do the underlined words by Maren Spark mean?A. The translation of the word “hygge” is not good enough.B. Only D anish speakers know what “hygge” means.C. “Hygge” is easy to translate but hard to feel.D. We can get the true meaning of “hygge” by feeling it.3.Which of the following can be best described as a “hygge” activity?A. Skiing in the cold winter months.B. Living through long dark winters.C. Taking afternoon tea with friends.D. Walking alone in the forest.4.The author writes this passage to_________.A. explainB. persuadeC. commentD. advertise【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文，举例说明丹麦语hygge只可意会不可言传，需要用心去感受。

2019版高考（人教）英语一轮基础达标练：选修6U3含答案**阅读理解Aging brings wrinkles, sagging bodies and frustrating forgetfulness. But getting older is not all bad for many people・ Mounting evidence suggests aging may be a key to happiness. There is conflicting research on the subject, however, and experts say it may all boil down to this: Attitude is everything ・Older adults tend to be more optimistic and have a more positive outlook on life than their younger and stressed opposites. The big question is why seniors are happie匚A recent study suggests one reason: Older adults remember the past through happy memories. Aging can bring more cheer as people become more comfortable with themselves and their roles in society. The older adults said they were enjoying more time with their family, spending more time on hobbies and having greater financial security and did not have to work.But others are doubtful about the link between happiness and growing olde匚”The notion that those in old age are happiest is misleading/ said Richard Easterlin, a professor of economics at the University of Southern California・ Tt is based on comparing people of different ages who are the same in terms of income, health, family life-11 Easterlin added, "When you take account of the fact that older people have lower income than younger, arc less healthy, and more likely to be living alone, then you will find it hard to accept that they are happier.In fact, scientists have found that as people age, their health declines and social networks disappear as their friends die, which can make the elderly less happy.Even if one does give in to age's dark side, health and happiness don't always go hand-in-hand・ It's all about attitude. Research by the University of Chicago's Yang suggests that attitude about life and happiness, is partly shaped by the era in which a person was bom .It turns out that individuals who adapt the best to changes also have the highest expected levels of happiness・Despite the conflicting findings about aging and happiness, the good news is that there doesn't appear to be a limit to how much happiness one can achieve in one's lif^・“Most people desire happiness,” Easterlin said. "To my knowledge, no one has identified a limit to attainable happiness： 1 .What does the last paragraph mainly tell us?A.The key factor to older adults' happinessB.There is a conflict between aging and happinessC.No one can define the limit to happiness・D.The relationship between health and happiness・2.Why arc some seniors happier according to some experts?A.They focus on what makes them feel good.B.They have their own circle of friends.C.They have better income after retirement・3.What can we learn from the passage?A.People of the same age have the same sense of happiness・B.Attitude may play a very important role in happiness・C.People who adapt the best to changes are more likely to be unhappy.D.Older adults who have more valuable life experience are more optimistic・4.What's the topic discussed in the passage?A.Whether aging or attitude brings happiness・B.Why seniors adapt the best to changes in society.C.What the limit to an elder person's happiness is.D.How older people feel compared with younger people・【文章大意】随着年龄的增加变老，人们的幸福感也是不一样的。

He didn't have food, water, a phone, or other supplies.He was getting colder by the minute.Nicholas had no idea where he was.He tried not to panic.He thought about all the survival shows he had watched on TV.It was time to put the tips he had learned to use.He decided to stop skiing.There was a better chance of someone finding him if he stayed put.The first thing he did was to find shelter from the freezing wind and snow.If he didn't, his body temperature would get very low, which could quickly kill ing his skis, Nicholas built a snow cave.He gathered a huge mass of snow and dug out a hole in the middle.Then he piled branches on top of himself, like a blanket, to stay as warm as he could.By that evening, Nicholas was really hungry.He ate snow and drank water from a nearby stream so that his body wouldn't lose too much water.Not knowing how much longer he could last, Nicholas did the only thing he could — he huddled (蜷缩) in his cave and slept.The next day, Nicholas went out to look for help, but he couldn't find anyone.He followed his tracks and returned to the snow cave, because without shelter, he could die that night.On Tuesday, Nicholas went out again to find help.He had walked for about a mile when a volunteer searcher found him.After two days stuck in the snow.Nicholas was saved.Nicholas might not have survived this snowstorm had it not been for TV.He had often watched Grylls' survival show Man vs Wild.That's where he learned the tips that saved his life.In each episode(一期节目) of Man vs Wild, Grylls is abandoned in a wild area and has to find his way out.When Grylls heard about Nicholas' amazing deeds, he was super impressed that Nicholas had made it since he knew better than anyone how hard Nicholas had to work to stay alive.1.What happened to Nicholas one Sunday afternoon？A. He broke his skis.B. He got lost.C. He hurt his eyes.D. He caught a cold.2.How did Nicholas keep himself warm？A. He found a shelter.B. He lighted some branches.C. He kept on skiing.D. He built a snow cave.3.On Tuesday, Nicholas ____.A. returned to his shelter safelyB. was saved by a searcherC. got stuck in the snowD. stayed where he was4.Nicholas left Grylls a very deep impression because he ____.A. watched Grylls' TV program regularlyB. did the right things in the dangerous situationC. created some tips for survivalD. was very hard－workingThe United Nations Environment Programme is calling for urgent action to reduce growing risks from chemicals.Better management of chemicals could save millions of lives and billions of dollars.As estimated,143,000 chemicals are now produced.Yet the report says only a small number of these chemicals have been studied for their effects on human health and the environment.It says death and disability rates are high from the unsafe use of chemical products.Sylvie Lemmet，director of the United Nations Environment Programme，says poor management of chemicals has a high economic cost.For example，she says the cost is higher than the amount of overseas development aid，or ODA，for health care in sub－Saharan Africa.She says，“If you look at the estimated c ost of poisoning from pesticide in sub－Saharan Africa，only the injury and the loss of working time is estimated to be 6.3 billion US dollars in 2009.This is higher than the total ODA that is going to the health sector in the same area.”The United Nations Environment Programme estimates that chemical sales worldwide will increase by around three percent a year until 2050.Chemical production is moving quickly from developed to developing countries.By 2020，chemical production is expected to increase by 40 percent in Africa and the Middle East and 33 percent in Latin America.One of its biggest concerns is pollution of rivers and lakes by pesticide and fertilizer.Other major concerns are heavy metal pollution from the production of cement and textiles，and dioxin pollution from mining.The UN report urges the chemical industry and governments to work together to develop safety policies.It says preventing harm costs less than fixing it.5.The purpose of Paragraph 3 is mainly to indicate that ____.A. the use of pesticide causes a great lossB. Africa needs more development aidC. chemicals have a high production costD. the estimated cost of poisoning from pesticide is inaccurate6.Which of the following is NOT a source of danger according to the text？A. Pesticide.B. Fertilizer.C. Heavy metals.D. Minerals.7.According to the text，what is the main reason for the risks from chemicals？A. Poor management of chemicals.B. Lack of research funds on chemicals.C. The mass production of cement and textiles.D. Contradictions between chemical producers and governments.8.What would be the best title for the text？A. The truth is Sylvie Lemmet's commentsB. A UN warning about chemical dangersC. The unpredictable future of chemical industryD. Preventing is much better than fixingNational ForecastFri, Aug 24，LONDON—This Evening and Tonight：Rain, locally heavy across northwest Scotland.Mostly cloudy but dry in other northern and western areas.Dry with clear spells (持续时间) in more central and eastern parts, but some low cloud and fog will develop.Generally mild with light winds.Saturday：Cloud and rain over western Scotland at the beginning will gradually push down over N．Ireland and northwest rgely dry, warm with sunny spells elsewhere, once early fog and low cloud clears.http：//www.times online. /tol/news/weather/The Nation's WeatherFri, Aug 24，NEW YORK—Heavy rain was forecast throughout Friday in parts of the Midwest.The heaviest rainfall was over northern Illinois, with more than 4 inches possible around Chicago.Wet weather was also expected in the plains as the same storm system tracks through the region.Periods of heavy rain were also forecast for the Northeast as the remnant (剩余部分) of tropical storm Erin moves into the Canadian Maritimes.Hot weather was expected to continue in the south and west.http：//www.wunderground. comDeath toll rises to 36 in China typhoonWed, Aug 22，BEIJING—At least 36 people were killed by Typhoon Sepat in four provinces in eastern and central China in widespread destruction that also forced the evacuation(撤退) of 1.37 million people.More than 60,000 homes in the provinces of Fujian, Jiangxi, Zhejiang and Hunan also were destroyed or damaged, Xinhua News Agency said.Total economic losses in the provinces have reached $ 663 million.Fujian was the worst－hit province, with 18 people killed, Xinhua said.Earlier, the storm, named after a Malaysian fish, killed at least one person in Taiwan, and left three dead in the Philippines.http：//news.yahoo. com/s/ap9.On August 25, in N．Ireland and northwest England, there will be ____.A. low cloud and fogB. typhoon and floodC. cloud and rainD. sunshine and mild wind10.What was the weather like in the south and west of the USA on Friday？A.
