Some experts believed that the cooling climate during the Ice Age was to blame for their extinction.Scientists reported last week they had studied genetic data from 59 cave bears. Their bones were recovered from seven countries: France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Serbia, Spain and Switzerland. From the genetic information, the scientists noted a decrease in the cave bear population beginning about 50,000 years ago. That is around the time of the arrival of Homo sapiens (现代人), or modern humans, in Eastern Europe. The researchers said they observed a sharp drop in the bears' numbers about 40,000 years ago. That coincides with(与……同时发生) the spread of Homo sapiens throughout Europe.The animals disappeared about 20,000 years ago. The cave bear lived in the Ice Age at the same time as other now extinct creatures. The bear was as big as a modern polar bear, but ate only plants. It appears often in prehistoric(史前的) cave paintings.There has been a scientific debate about what led to the extinction of the cave bear. Some scientists believe that the climate change greatly reduced the plants they needed, while others have blamed it on human activities, including hunting and taking over the caves where the bears gave birth and slept during winter. The bear's population remained largely unchanged for long periods before climate cooling, including during two noticeably cold periods and other cooling events.Homo sapiens appeared in Africa more than 300,000 years ago and later moved to other areas. The study offered new evidence that the arrival of Homo sapiens led to ruin for many kinds of animals across Eurasia, the Americas and Australia.1.How did scientists research on cave bears?A.By studying the bones found in some countries.B.By observing the paintings on the cave walls.C.By being told from generation to generation.D.By do research on the polar bears.2.When did the cave bear die out?A.About 50,000 years ago.B.About 40,000 years ago.C.About 20,000 years ago.D.More than 300,000 years ago.3.What can we learn according to the fourth paragraph?A.Sudden change in climate made cave bears die out.B.Cave bears couldn't adapt to the cold environment as quickly as possible.C.The loss of cave bears' habitats caused damage to their existence.D.Cold periods were very common thousands of years ago.4.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A.Humans Are Perhaps Partly to Blame for Cave Bears' DisappearanceB.Homo Sapiens Hunting Kinds of Animals across EurasiaC.A Debate about Why Cave Bears Suddenly DisappearedD.Scientists Studied Bones Discovered in Seven CountriesB(2021河北邢台高一上期中,)It is widely believed that biodiversity (生物多样性) is promoted to save species. But in reality species exist only as part of ecosystems and cannot survive unless their ecosystems are protected along with the diversity they contain as much as possible.Protecting habitats is important for keeping biodiversity. In 2003, over 102,000 habitats covering nearly 19 million square kilometres, or 11.5% of theworld's land surface,were under some form of protection. Though this has been a great improvement since 1962, when just l,000 protected habitats were listed, it is still not considered enough to stop the ecocide that is endangering the world's biodiversity.For a number of environmentalists, protecting the world's 25 biodiversity hotspots(热点地区) is critical to saving habitats and species. But many hotspots are endangered already, having lost up to three-quarters of their original plants.The poor state of most biodiversity hotspots results directly from population growth and migration(迁移) into these areas. A study found that by the mid-1990s around 1.1 billion people had lived in these hotspots. Moreover, the annual population growth rate in these areas was 1.8%, higher than the global average of 1.4%. The PAI report concluded that human-related environmental changes would continue to put pressure on hotspots. Therefore, keeping biodiversity requires paying close attention to population size.Protecting hotspots is not simply a matter of putting up fences or employing guards. The best results will be achieved when local people are educated about the value of wildlife, and actually gain a share of the benefits from eco-tourism. Only then do they have a chance to see the benefits of protecting hotspots.5.What can we infer from Paragraph 1?A.The loss of any species can affect humans.B.Endangered species are paid more attention to by humans.C.Species can still survive when their ecosystems are destroyed.D.Ecosystem protection is as important as diversity protection.6.What does the underlined word “ecocide” in Paragraph 2 mean?A.Ecosystem protection.B.Reduction in the number of species.C.Serious damage to habitats.D.Habitat protection.7.What's the direct cause of the terrible state of the hotspots?A.Population growth in hotspots.B.Migration out of these areas.C.Global warming.D.The global average population growth rate.8.What's the author's opinion on protecting the hotspots?A.It's simple to carry out.B.It leads to the increase in tourists.C.It's closely connected with local people.D.It suggests that the local people be well educated.Ⅱ.七选五(2020山东德州高一上期末,)China has made great improvements in environmental protection during the past 70 years. 1 Each species on Earth has a role to play in the ecosystem.In recent decades,a series of wildlife-protection movements has been carried out by the central government. 2 The giant panda and the crested ibis(朱鹮) are among these successful stories.The giant panda used to have a population of 1,114 in the 1970s. It now totals 1,864 thanks to 52 protection areas. 3 By the end of last year, seven of the nine released pandas had survived in the wild. 4 In 1981,only seven crested ibises were found in Yang County,Shaanxi Province.Since then,breeding programs have helped the population reach 2,000. China has even sent crested ibises to Japan and South Korea in recent years to help with the species' survival.5 Key projects will be continually carried out to improveprotection,including making the lists of wild animals and plants under State protection,and also fighting against illegal wildlife trade, which includes the ivory(象牙)trade.A.Another species was once thought to be extinct.B.Protecting wildlife is, without doubt, an important part.C.China will continue its efforts in the wildlife protection.D.People call for immediate protection of the remaining species.E.Scientists have worked to feed pandas and then release them into the wild.F.As environmental damage has increased, signs of change have appeared around the world.G.Several species in danger of extinction have made impressive progress thanks to the methods.1. 2. 3. 4. 5.答案全解全析Part 1 Warming Up, Pre-reading, Reading &Comprehending基础过关练Ⅰ.1.decrease 2.hunt 3.certain 4.contain 5.affected6.employed7.appreciateⅡ.1.are being protected from 2.in peace 3.pay close attention to 4.burst into laughter 5.dying out 6.in relief 7.in danger ofⅢ.1.protection考查名词。

Twenty centimeters from her face researchers have placed a white card with two black spots on it. She stares at it carefully. A researcher removes the card and replaces it by another, this time with the spots differently spaced. As the cards change from one to the other, her gaze(凝视）starts to lose its focus-until a third, with three black spots, is presented. Her gaze returns: she looks at it for twice as long as she did at the previous card. Can she tell that the number two is different from three, just 24 hours after coming into the world?Or do newborns simply prefer more to fewer? The same experiment, but with three spots shown before two, shows the same return of interest when the number of spots changes. Perhaps it is just the newness? When slightly older babies were shown cards with pictures of objects (a comb, a key, an orange, and so on),changing the number of objects had an effect separate from changing the objects themselves. Could it be the pattern that two things make, as opposed to three? No again. Babies paid more attention to squares moving randomly(随意地）on a screen when their number changed from two to three, or three to two. The effect even crosses between senses. Babies who were repeatedly shown two spots became more excited when they then heard three drumbeats than when they heard just two; likewise(同样地）when the researchers started with drumbeats and moved to spots.【4】The experiment described in Paragraph 1 is related to the baby's .A. sense of hearingB. sense of sightC. sense of touchD. sense of smell【5】Babies are sensitive to the change in .A. the size of cardsB. the colour of picturesC. the shape of patternsD. the number of objects【6】Why did the researchers test the babies with drumbeats?A. To reduce the difficulty of the experiment.B. To see how babies recognize sounds.C. To carry their experiment further.D. To keep the babies'interest.【7】Where does this text probably come from?A. Science fiction.B. Children's literature.C. An advertisement.D. A science report.C（2018浙江温州九校高一第二学期期中联考）Sure, it's good to get along with your teacher because it makes the time you spend in the classroom more pleasant.And yes, it's good to get along with your teacher because, in general, it's smart to learn how to understand the different types of people you'll meet throughout your life.“But really, there's one super-important reason why you should get along with your teacher. When you do, learning bursts right open, "says Evelyn Vuko, a longtime teacher who writes an education column(专栏)called“Teacher Says" for The Washington Post newspaper.In fact, kids who get along with their teachers not only learn more, but are more comfortable when asking questions and getting extra help. This makes it easier to understand new material and do their best on tests. When you have this kind of relationship with a teacher, he or she can be someone to turn to with problems, such as problems with learning or school life like bullying.As a kid in a primary or middle school, you're at a wonderful stage in your life. You're like a sponge(海绵)，able to absorb lots of new and exciting information. On top of that, you're able to think about all this information in new ways. Your teacher knows that, and, in most cases, is very excited to be the person who's giving you all that material and helping you make it. Remember, teachers are people, too, and theyfeel great if you're open to what they're teaching you. That's why they wanted to be teachers!Some kids may be able to learn in any situation, whether they like the teacher or not. But most kids are sensitive to the way they get along with the teacher, and if things aren't going well, they won't learn as well and won't enjoy being in class.【8】In the passage, the author mainly talks about .A. how to make the time in the classroom more pleasantB. how much the students are expected of to get along with teachersC. the importance of a good relationship with teachersD. how to get along well with others【9】The underlined part “learning bursts right open”in the third paragraph probably means .A. there'll be no problems at all with learningB. there'll be more problems with learningC. you find an opening for learningD. learning becomes easier for you at once【10】Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. Teachers are excited even if you wouldn't like to accept their teaching.B. Teachers sometimes have the same feelings as students do.C. Some students can still learn even if they don't like the teacher.D. A bad relationship with your teachers does more or less harm to your studies.第二节根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填人空白处的最佳选项。

Unit 1 Women of achievement Period 4 Using Language课后阅读作业Ⅰ. 阅读理解AQueen Victoria was monarch of Great Britain from 1837 until herdeath in 1901. This period is often called the Victorian Age.Queen Victoria was a stern and serious woman. One reason she wasso serious was that she had suffered a great loss. When she was twentyyears old, she married a German prince named Albert. Victoria and Albert were deeply in love, and their marriage was extremely happy. In 1861, after they had been married for twenty-one years, Albert died, leaving Queen Victoria heartbroken. For the rest of her life, the lonely Victoria mourned his loss. It was customary in those days for a widow to dress in black for a short time after the death of her husband. But Queen Victoria dressed in black for forty years. And for forty years, as another sign of her grief, she wrote her letters on white paper edged in black.Even before Prince Albert died, Queen Victoria was known as a very serious woman. She had a strong sense of duty and worked very hard at all her tasks. In her diary she wrote, “I love to be employed; I hate to be idle. ”She never forgot that she was Britain’s queen and always acted with great dignity(尊严). Victoria had high ideals and moral standards(道德标准)that sometimes made her seem stuffy(古板的).She was also very sure of herself. She always thought that she was right, and expected everyone to agree with her.【语篇概述】本文主要讲述了维多利亚女王的故事。

ATate Modern,London,UKTogether with three other Tate museums, Tate Modern located in London is a national museum of international modern art. It is one of the largest museums of modern and contemporary art in the world. Most of the exhibit items are open to the public for free,only charging for major temporary(临时的) exhibitions.The Louvre,Paris,FranceIt is the world's largest and most visited art museum and a historical landmark of Paris. Housed in the Louvre Palace,the museum has been added to many times since its opening in 1793. Its glass pyramid in the main courtyard was designed by Chinese American architect Ieoh Ming Pei,and it later became a signature design of the museum, appearing in the hit thriller The Da Vinci Code starring Tom Hanks and Audrey Tautou.National Museum of China, Beijing, ChinaNear Tiananmen Square in Beijing, it's one of the largest museums in the world and the second-most visited art museum in the world, just after the Louvre. Covering a time span from the Yuanmou Man of 1.7 million years ago to the Qing Dynasty, the museum houses around 1.05 million items—many cannot be found in museums elsewhere.State Hermitage Museum, St. Petersburg, RussiaThe State Hermitage Museum is the second-largest art museum in the world. The public can visit five of the main buildings:Winter Palace, Small Hermitage, Old Hermitage, New Hermitage and Hermitage Theatre.Frequently seen in pop culture, it often appears as a setting for films, TV series, novels and even video games.1.Tate Modern, London, UK is attractive partly in that .A.it is a national museum with three branchesB.entry to most of its exhibitions is free of chargeC.its exhibitions range from ancient art to modern artD.visitors can purchase some wonderful exhibit items2.What do we know about the Louvre?A.It often serves as a setting for films.B.It stays the same as it was when first built.C.It is the most visited art museum in the world.D.It was designed by a Chinese American architect.3.Which museum displays unique items from the Yuanmou Man?A.Tate Modern, London, UK.B.The Louvre, Paris, France.C.National Museum of China, Beijing, China.D.State Hermitage Museum, St. Petersburg, Russia.BI turned 8 years old the day I skipped school for the first time. It was easily done: Both my parents left for work before my school bus arrived on weekdays, so when it showed up at my house on that cold winter morning, I simply did not get on. The perfect crime!And what did I do with myself on that glorious stolen day, with no adult in charge and no limits on my activities? Did I get high?Nope. I built a warm fire in the wood stove, prepared a bowl of popcorn, grabbed a blanket, and read. I was thrilled at a book—it was Hemingway's The Sun Also Rises —and I just needed to be alone with it for a little while. I ached to know what would happen to Jake Barnes and Lady Brett Ashley and Robert Cohn. I couldn't bear the thought of sitting in a classroom taking another exam when I could be traveling through Spain in the 1920s with a bunch of expatriates (侨民).I spent that day lost in words. Time fell away, as the room around me turned to mist, and my role—as a daughter, sister, teenager, and student—in the worldno longer had any meaning. I had accidentally come across the key to perfect happiness: I had become completely absorbed in something I loved.Looking back on it now, I can see that some subtle things were happening to my mind and to my life while I was in that state of absorption. Hemingway's language was quietly braiding itself into my imagination. I was downloading information about how to create simple and elegant sentences, a good and solid plot. In other words, I was learning how to write. Without realizing it, I was hot on the trail of my own fate. Writing now absorbs me the way reading once did and happiness is their generous effect.4.Why did the author skip school on that day?A.Because her parents left home early.B.Because it was a biting cold winter morning.C.Because she was fascinated by a novel.D.Because she was anxious to take the exam.5.What did the author think is the source of true joy?A.Reading fiction by the fire.B.Traveling with a bunch of expatriates.C.Breaking the rules and regulations.D.Being occupied by one's passion.6.Which can best replace the underlined phrase “braiding itself into” in the last paragraph?A.Entering.B.Destroying.C.Mending.D.Blocking.7.What can we infer from the passage?A.The author was tired of her roles in real life.B.Writing has a horrible effect on the author's life now.C.The author often skipped school when she was 8 years old.D.Becoming a writer is the author's childhood dream.CArtist Zsudayka Nzinga Terrell clearly remembers the day in high school when the teacher asked her to write about her family history. She saw that it was impossible to answer the questions “Who am I?” and “Where did I come from?”Nzinga Terrell told VOA about her childhood memories. “So the white kids were able to get up and talk about hundreds of years of their background. And there was me and one other black kid in the class who could go back to a plantation in Virginia and that's it.” She talked about her family's history. “My people were brought here at the bottom of a ship. And they were sold and they were re-named. My dad's side of the family took the last name from the job that they had, which is Butler. My mom's side of the family took the last name from the plantation that owned them.”Today, she and her husband, artist James Terrell, explore that identity in their work. Their new exhibit of paintings is called “Born at the Bottom of the Ship.” The show recently opened at the Center for the Arts in Manassas, Virginia.Over the generations, Africans became African Americans with a new culture, and Nzinga Terrell includes different parts of that story in her art. There are things that look like African cloth and design and things that make you think of American culture and clothing.James Terrell's style is more abstract. Mami Wata, the first painting visitors see in the new exhibit, shows a woman rising from the ocean. Terrell explains the painting, “Mami Wata is a goddess of the sea... There's no light going through; there's not a lot of color being seen, as opposed to the other ones. So, it's just showing the time of the slaves being brought to America.”But the artist says he also likes to play with color. Growing up, Terrell attended a church with colored glass in many windows. Because of that experience, he learned how light goes through the windows. He makes lines in his painting that look like the lines between pieces of colored glass in the church windows.Terrell's works show how he sees himself as an African American. Visitors to the art exhibit say they see themselves and their family members in the works.8.Young Nzinga Terrell's memory of her family history can date back to .A.the time when slaves were sold and re-namedB.the time when she was born at the bottom of a shipC.the time when the black slaves were brought to AmericaD.the time when her family worked on a plantation in Virginia9.How did Nzinga Terrell's father get his family name?A.It was named after a plantation.B.It was named after their owner's name.C.It was named after the job the family did.D.It was named long ago after a place in Africa.10.What's the painting Mami Wata like?A.It's typical of native American style.B.It reflects a dark time of the black slaves.C.It's abstract with rich and bright colors.D.It describes a church James once attended.11.How does the visitors probably feel seeing Terrell's works?A.Strange.B.Curious.C.Depressed.D.Moved.DJason Barnes is a young musician who lives in Georgia. Eight years ago, Jason lost his right arm just below his elbow in an accident. Jason got a prosthetic (假体的) arm. But this arm could only do a few things. Jason still wanted to play music. So he went to see Gil Weinberg, who makes musical robots. To play the piano, Jason needed five fingers that could move just the way he wanted. This was a big challenge.Living arms move when muscles respond to commands from the brain. When you think “open fingers”, your brain sends electrical signals along nerves. Some prosthetic arms use sensors (传感器) to try to read these nerve signals. But they don't work very well. Nerves are tiny, and their signals are faint. Sensors might be able to tell that you want to move a finger. But they aren't very good at telling which finger you want to move.Jason doesn't have his hand anymore, but he still has the arm muscles that move his fingers. When Jason thinks about moving his fingers, those muscles stillmove. To read the muscles inside Jason's arm, the team used ultrasound (超声波). The roboticists taught a computer to read the ultrasound sensor as Jason thought about moving his fingers. The computer learned which muscles moved when Jason wanted his fingers to move in a certain way. Thinking about moving his fingers makes the muscles in his upper arm move. The computer sees the moving muscles and tells the motors in Jason's robotic fingers to move the right way.The team hopes the “Skywalker hand”, their prosthesis, will someday work as well as a real hand. The sensors, motors, and computers inside the hand are not complex. But they need to get smaller and cheaper before lots of these hands can be made. Weinberg and his team are working on this right now. Soon, they hope that anyone who loses a hand will be able to get a new robotic one with five fingers that they can move just by thinking.12.Why did Jason visit Weinberg?A.To save his own life.B.To learn to play music.C.To study musical robots.D.To replace his prosthetic arm.13.What does the underlined word “faint” in Paragraph 2 mean?A.Specific.B.Weak.C.Stable.D.Predictable.14.What makes the invention of the robotic hand possible?A.Moving muscles are simpler to spot than nerves.B.Nerve searching techniques have developed fast.C.Ultrasound sensors vary from finger to finger.D.Motors are much quicker to operate.15.What do Weinberg and his team expect of the “Skywalker hand”?A.It'll be easy to make.B.It'll be customer-friendly.C.It'll be better than real hands.D.It'll be controlled by computers.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

高一英语必修1 Unit 4单元同步练习一、阅读理解：AWhat is the greatest threat to mankind? Maybe different people come up with different answers. However, there is no denying the fact that the only threat to humankind, apart from humankind itself, is, without any doubt, the nature. Natural disasters are the result of natural environmental processes that have a damaging effect on people. Natural disasters can come in many forms: such as geological（地质的）events like earthquakes, tsunamis or mud-rock flows, climatic（气候的）events like storms, hurricanes or tornadoes and fire events like forest fires and wildfires.The damage done by natural disasters is mainly as a result of our inability to predict exactly when they will happen. Although great progress has been made in designing and developing forecasting models（预测模型）for some natural disasters, complete certainty is still impossible. Even to be pessimistic（悲观地说）, there is a possibility that human beings will never achieve accurate prediction（准确预测）of the happening of all natural disasters.What’s more, even though we were able to predict these disasters from nature, preventing them is equally impossible. So we only have two ways to both prevent injuries or deaths and reduce economic losses to the least（把经济损失减到最少）. These two methods are to prepare before a natural disaster comes to hit, and to manage the necessary resources and public services after a natural disaster strikes（袭击）.These two things have always been at the leading position（首要地位）of the projects of both national governments and international organizations. In the United States, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) is responsible for the “preparedness, response and recovery planning” of both man-made and natural disasters.Most natural disasters cannot be prevented, and both emergency preparation and good disaster management are the best ways to deal with them. Although natural events may appear to（似乎）serve no purpose（没有用）but simply to punish and destroy, natural disasters, a perfect symbol of the great power of the nature, are display（显示；表现）of our planet’s evolution（进化；演变）and its state of change.1. According to the passage, both humankind and nature _________.A. can be managed orderlyB. can threaten human beingsC. are hard to controlD. have a large family2. Which can’t be regarded as a similarity between tornadoes and earthquakes?A. They can not be prevented.B. They are both geological events.C. They are both the result of natural environmental processes.D. They cause damage to people.3. The reason why natural disasters cause so much damage is that _________.A. it is very difficult to predict when exactly they will happenB. our forecasting equipment is too old for many natural disastersC. we don’t do enough preparation before natural disasters strikeD. we don’t have the necessary public services to use after natural disasters strike4. It may be concluded from the passage that _________.A. natural disasters can not be predicted at allB. human beings are pessimistic to the futureC. being well-prepared can avoid economic lossesD. good preparation and disaster management are advisable5. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. A Symbol of the Power of NatureB. The Greatest Threat to MankindC. Natural Disasters and MankindD. Reduce Losses to the LeastBPresident Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama ended their first trip to India on Monday. The First Couple set off on the ten-day t our of Asia on Friday.

The drive was typical, textbook beauty: mountains thick with rubber tree forests, pure tea plantations, banana palms and tiny Dai villages. Hidden among the fields of green, I spotted an odd collection of wooden boxes near a tent on the side of the road.1We run into the current home of Wei Dajing, a 17-year-old apprentice (学徒) bee-keeper who was manning his hives. Wei was fresh to the bee-keeping life, and had been on the job for just two months and was here to learn from a master bee-keeper. Their tent and hive set-up is always temporary.2“This particular spot was stationed at a sunny patch ofyellow flowers. Once these flowers die, the rubber trees will be flowering, so we will move toward them,” he told Sam.Like thieves in the night, the bee-keepers will stealthily pack up their hives in the dark once the bees go to sleep. “They are most active around midday when they are collecting their nectar (花蜜). 3” Wei explained.The hives were humming, and bees were invasively buzzing around Wei as he spoke to us. Pieces of fruit laid drying among the hives, used to feed the bees and give them an extra boost of energy once Wei bottled up their hard-earned honey. Sam, who also had a couple of his own small hives in his backyard, told us you must always leave a little bit of honey in the hive.4We waved goodbye to Wei. Back at Sam's house, he gave us a bowl of local honey. 5 Lacking the usual sweetness of honey but instead rich with a more savory, spiced flavor, it tasted just like China.A.It was smooth, thin and runny.B.Wei skillfully collected honey from the hives.C.Otherwise the bees would get fed up and abandon you.D.Maybe it is the flowers that give such unique taste to the honey.E.By 10 pm they are asleep in their hives, which is when we move.F.I asked our excellent guide and new best friend, Sam, to pull over.G.Wei and his master move their camp as the flowers bloom and die.六、书面表达注意：(1)短文必须包括以上所有内容，可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯；(2)词数：100左右。
