2020版高考英语大一轮新优化复习考点强化练13Unit3TheMillionPoundBankNote新人教版必修3Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2018·浙江)Steven Stein likes to follow garbage trucks.His strangehabit makes sense when you consider that he’s an environmental scientist who studies how to reduce litter,including things that fall off garbage trucks as they drive down the road.What is even more interesting is that one of Stein’s jobs is defending an industry behind the plastic shopping bag.Americans use more than 100 billion thin film plastic bags every year.So many end up in tree branches or along highwaysthat a growing number of cities do not allow them atcheckouts(收银台).The bags are prohibited in some 90 cities in California,including Los Angeles.Eyeing these headwinds,plastic-bag makers are hiring scientists like Stein to make the casethat their products are not as bad for the planet as most people assume.Among the bag makers’ arguments:many cities with bans still allow shoppers to purchase paper bags,which are easily recycled but require more energy to produce and transport.And while plastic bags may be ugly to look at,they represent a small percentage of all garbage on the ground today.The industry has also taken aim at the product that has appeared as its replacement:reusable shopping bags.The stronger a reusable bag is,the longer its life and the more plastic-bag use it cancels out.However,longer-lasting reusable bags often require more energy to make.One study found that a cotton bag must be used at least 131 times to be better for the planet than plastic.En vironmentalists don’t dispute(质疑) these points.They hope paper bags will be banned someday too and want shoppers to use the same reusable bags for years.。

Unit 3 The Million Pound Bank NoteⅠ.阅读理解A(2017·浙江五校联考)Filled with much housework,meals and childcare at home,many people feel thatbeing at work sounds more like having a picnic.Even for those who have a happy family life,they feel actually more stressed at home than at work.Recently,a study carried out by the researchers at a university in the USA found lower levels of hormone(荷尔蒙) released in response to stress in a majority of subjects when they were at work compared to when they were at home.This was true for both men and women,and parents and people without children.Both men and women showed less stress at work.But women are more likely to report feeling happier there.Men were more likely to feel happier at home.Experts say there are other reasons why work is less stressful than home for many.“Paid work is more valued in society,” said Sarah Damaske,the lead researcher on the study,“Household work is boring and not particularly rewarding.”We get better at our job with time and the increased competence means less stress and more rewards.Yet none of us,no matter how long we’ve been doing it,ever truly feels like an expert at parenting or even at marriage.The support and friendship of co-workers also offer stress relief.Athome,meanwhile,stress sprea ds and increases quickly.“That’s the reason why most housewives wish they were the bread earners,” Dr.Damaske says.Much of the advice to families and couples includes the warning to “leave work stress at office” and even to change our mind-set from work to home,for example,a walk around the block.The recent findings,though,suggest our home life,not our attitude,might be due for some change.【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了人们更愿意在外上班而不愿在家做家务这一社会现象,并对这一现象进行了分析,给出了解决方法。

Unit 3 The Million Pound Bank Note***阅读理解。

You’re in your office when you learn there’s someone with a gun wandering outside. You can hear gunshots and screams. What do you do?That’s the challenge for users of a new virtual (虚拟)reality program called SurviVR, designed to train employees how to deal with an active shooter situation in the workplace. The program works with HTC Vive, the virtual reality headset released earlier this year.An active shooter situation is when an armed person or people actively shoot in a small, populated area with the intention to kill. There were 20 such situations in the United States last year and 20 the year before, according to FBI statistics, resulting in a total of 231 deaths. This year saw the deadliest active shooter situation in US history, with 49 people killed in a nightclub in Orlando.In the training situation, users have four choices. They can lock themselves in the office. They can hide, perhaps in the office closet. They can run for an exit. Or they can use something in the office—a computer or a cup a pair of scissors-as a weapon to fight the shooter. This is an improvement on standard active shooter training. Gallo says, which typically teachers people to lock themselves in place and hide. The ＂lock down＂ method is often ineffective, he says, and has resulted in many deaths in recent years.In the training’s basic level, no one gets killed. But as the trainings become more advanced, players who make a wrong choice be shot. There’s no blood; the screen simp ly turns black slowly.If this sounds terrifying, that’s the point, says Gallo. There are plenty of training programs to teach employees how to deal with workplace violence, sometimes involving role play with toy guns. But these trainings are basically games. Gallo says, with employees relaxed and even enjoying themselves. To teach people what they really need to know for an active shooter situation, they need to be scared.＂SurviVR will take the fear and turn it into confidence.＂ Gallo says.1. What’s the author’s purpose of describing a dangerous scene in Para. 1?A. To attract the readers’ attention on the new virtual reality program.B. To show the challenge that the readers are required to face.C. To warn the readers of the possible dangers in the working place.D. To inform the readers of the correct response in such a situation2. What is the suggested response in the standard active shooter training?A. Fighting the shooterB. Running for the exitC. Using a computer as a weaponD. Locking down3. What does Gallo think of the training programs involving role play with toy guns?A. SearingB. ViolentC. IneffectiveD. Helpful4. What would be the best title?A. A New Virtual Reality Program on Active Shooter TrainingB. What Should You Do When Meeting Gunshots in the Workplace?C. How to Deal with an Active Shooter Situation?D. Employees Need to Be Scared of the Workplace Violence.【语篇解读】文章介绍一种新的主动射击训练虚拟现实程序，教人们遇到办公室暴力犯罪的时候如何应对。

课时提升作业十三必修3Unit 3The Million Pound Bank Note(限时35分钟)Ⅰ. 阅读理解AWe all know the hard work that filmmakers and actors put in toprovide us with entertainment, but it seems that even regularmoviegoers like us have a big impact on how a movie turns out too.For decades now, film studios have used so-called test screenings to get feedback from members of the public before a movie comes out. While test audience members are usually asked to fill in a questionnaire after a screening, telling the film studio what they liked and didn’t like, media giant Disney has come up with a more high-tech solution.According to a paper published this summer by the company’s researchers, Disney is m easuring test audiences’ reactions by using special cameras placed inside cinemas. Pairing the cameras with custom software, the company can track what each audience member is feeling at any point in the movie, from anger to joy. This works by mapping 68 different points on each audience member’s face. The cameras can see in the dark, and the software can figure out a person’s mood based on the slightest of facial expressions.It’s hoped that this new method will allow more detailed feedback from test audiences. Rather than relying on audience members to recall their feelings after the movie’s over, it can accurately read their reactions in real-time.Test screenings are highly valued in the movie industry, and several well-known movies have been greatly altered following feedback. Viewers of E. T. , the Extra-Terrestrial (1982), would have left the cinema feeling a whole lot differently if it weren’t for its test audience’s feedback. “In one cut of the film that was tested, E. T. died instead of go ing home in his spaceship. You won’t be surprised to hear that the test audience in question didn’t warm to this ending at all, ” wrote media website Den of Geek.But for those who are concerned about privacy, the cameras won’t be installed in public cin emas. After all, unless you’re part of a test audience, being in front of the camera is best left to the movie stars.【文章大意】本文介绍高科技test screenings摄像机能从观众那里读出准确的观影反馈信息。
