模块综合测评(二)Ⅰ.阅读理解(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)AThe Renaissance，considered by modern scholars to have been the time between 1300 and 1600，was a period of European history when many new inventions and beliefs came into being.The Renaissance is traced back to rich Italian cities such as Florence，Milan，and Venice.In these cities businessmen started to spend their extra money on things like painting and education，and to consider new techniques of banking and systems of government.A new type of scholar，the humanist(人文主义者) arose.Humanism was concerned with humankind and tin and Greek，literature and philosophy，music and mathematics were among the subjects humanists studied.The Renaissance gave rise to new forms of painting and sculpture.During the Renaissance，artists were no longer regarded as mere artisans (工匠)．Many artists drew on mathematics in order to become more accurate in their measurements(度量) and to make sure an object was presented in realistic proportions.They also studied the way light hits objects and the ways our eyes perceive(注意到) it.A new kind of paint，called oil paint，was invented.The Renaissance affected all of the society.Many people became interested in politics，and the world outside their towns.They became explorers，businessmen，etc.The effect on religion was especially strong.In the Middle Ages people were primarily concerned with serving the church and getting to heaven.But the increase in arts and education gave people things to look forward to in life，and made them lose interest in the church.The Renaissance produced many great minds.Leonardo da Vinci was one of the greatest，although he was not regarded that way at the time.Among his many works of art were The Mona Lisa and The Last Supper.He is also regarded as a great inventor，and is credited for coming up with the idea of the helicopter.1．According to the second paragraph，the Renaissance________.A．occurred all over EuropeB．started in ItalyC．influenced art，finance，and physical educationD．was the most popular in Florence【解析】细节理解题。

AI've loved books for as long as I can remember. When I was a child and my mother finished washing the evening dishes, she'd read books to me like Curious George and Little Black Sambo in her quiet voice. I always enjoyed listening to the stories, but I wanted to learn to read so that I could read to myself.When I was in first grade I read Go Dog Go by myself. One weekend morning while my parents were still asleep, I got up and read the whole book. When my parents woke up, I told them what I'd done. First they felt quite astounded and couldn't believe their ears, but they soon felt proud.Finally, I got a job in a bookstore and started buying books at a 30% discount (折扣). I kept every book I bought and whenever I looked at the books on my book shelf I felt a lot of excitement and energy. I loved all my books and I began collecting a lot of books. I have a home office with twelve book shelves and two large book cases. My office was filled with books. Every shelf was filled with books and the built-in desk that was completely covered by books that ran across the whole surface of the desk. I even hadbooks lying on the floor.There was one big problem with this. My wife wanted to use the built-in desk and she repeatedly asked me to create space for her. I finally decided to clear out some of the books. In fact, I removed about half the books I owned. Not only was the desk completely clear, some book shelves were only half full. To my surprise, I felt a new sense of peace and freedom.语篇解读本文是记叙文。

At one o’clock in the morning, the water was getting 18 , and a strong 19 had begun to blow. Suddenly 20 were seen in the distance; another ship! The shouts of the swimmers were heard on board, and willing hands pulled them out of the water. The 21 of the ship that had so 22 arrived on the scene in time to save their lives was Ellen. What had brought her to the exact spot through the 23 and the pathless sea? Her captain had known 24 about the wreck(沉船) and had indeed attempted to sail away from it. But let him speak for himself.“I was forced by the wind,” he said long afterwards, “to 25 my course (航道). Just as I did it, a small 26 flew across the ship once or twice and then 27 at my face.

Carson Webster was sitting over by the window trying to listen to the teacher, but his mind was not on the problem Mr. Sims was discussing. Carson’s mind was on a little mouse named Millie that was busily moving around in his pocket. Millie was not very happy. At breakfast, she had climbed into Carson’s pocket and gone to sleep while Carson ate two pieces of bread and read the newspaper. Carson had forgotten Millie was there until he was halfway in class. Now that Millie’s morning sleep was over, she was ready to exercise. Luckily for Carson, Millie was in a pocket with a button, or he might be in serious trouble.“Carson?”Mr. Sims, who was usually rather strict with his students, was suddenly looking at Carson with his eyes wide open, rolling his stick in his hand. Carson had to pay attention.“Could you please repeat the question?” said Carson, feeling his pocket.“I asked if you would agree with the statement,” said Mr. Sims pleasantly.“Well, I’m not really attentive at the moment,”said Carson. “I think I would need to give it more consideration.” Carson did not have the slightest idea as to what Mr. Sims was talking about.“I see,” said Mr. Sims seriously, “Then I guess you’re uncertain about whether the product of zero by any other number is always zero?”“Oh, I know that,” said Carson, who could feel himself turning red as a couple of kids including Bob began to laugh. He knew his punishment would come soon. To his surprise, however, the teacher didn’t seem angry.“I’m so glad,” said Mr. Sims, turning back to the blackboard. “Oh, and by the way, Carson,” he continued, “I think a cage would be a healthier place for your littlefriend. Would you agree with that statement?” Just at that time, Millie let out a weak but clear cry and stuck her head out of Carson’s pocket.“Yes,” Carson said with a smile, “I would totally agree with that statement!”36. Which of the following is NOT a person’s name?A. Carson.B. Sims.C. Millie.D. Bob.37. Which of the following statements is true according to the story?A. Bob was not the only student who laughed at Carson.B. The little mouse escaped from Carson’s pocket in class.C. Mr. Sims was too anxious to satisfy his students in class.D.

He was a teacher who was not only strict but also humorous.C. He liked to ask his students to repeat what he said in class.D.

Sir Edmund Hillary from New Zealand and Tenzing Norgay from Nepal were the first people ever to climb Mount Everest. They climbed it in 1953. Men from several different countries climbed it after that.Jumko Tabei, a Japanese from Hokkaido, was the first woman to make this difficult climb. A Tokyo newspaper television organized the climb in 1975. They chose fifteen women from mountaineering (登山) clubs to go to Nepal. The group climbed for several days. Then there was an avalanche (雪崩). The heavy ice and snow injured ten of the women. They had to stop climbing, the other five women continued.Only Ms. Tabei was able to climbing the last 70 meters. She was standing on the top of the world. She was the first woman there.Ms. Tabei was 35 years old at the time. She is 1 meter 50 centimeters and weighs 42 kilograms. She says that she is an ordinary housewife. She started climbing mountains in 1960. She climbed every mountain in Japan. Then she climbed Mount Annapurna, another high mountain in the Himalayas.

Not many people said yes to it. Today much of that is changing. The first computer system was introduced for use in business in the mid-1950s. Since then, the number of computer systems used in business, government offices, and institutions has grown rapidly. In 1975, about 250,000 systems were in use in the United States. This figure is growing by tens of thousands every year.The computer is an important factor in our lives. Each year we use computer more and more to help us to collect data and to provide us with information. At one time people thought computers were only useful to banks, department stores and governments. But today the rapidly increasing numbers of computers are used for many other purposes. Have you ever stopped to think how you are affected (影响) by a computer? The clothes you wear were probably made with the help of a computer. The newspaper you read could have been edited and typed by a computer. Even radio programmes are often prepared by computers.Computers today are playing important roles in education, transportation and medicine. They are used to predict the weather, to examine the ocean, and to develop defense systems. They are being used by businesses, governments and institutions. There is no doubt that their uses will become a greater part of our lives.The influence (影响) of the computer is great. The list of its uses could go on and on. Computers now affect millions of people in countless ways every day.43. Before the 1950s the computer was_________.A. widely usedB. no use at allC. not understood by many peopleD. liked by people44.

Yale, Princeton, and Columbia were opened soon after Harvard. In the early years, these schools were much alike. Only young men could go to college. All the students studied the same subjects, and everyone learned Latin, and Greek. Little was known about science then. When the students graduated, most of them became ministers or teachers.In 1782, Harvard started a medical school for young men who wanted to become doctors. Later, lawyers could receive their training (训练) in Harvard’s law school. In 1825, besides Latin and Greek, Harvard began teaching modern languages, such as French and German. Soon it began teaching American history.As knowledge increased, Harvard and other colleges began to teach many new subjects. Students were allowed to choose the subjects that interested them.Today, there are many different kinds of colleges and universities. Most of them are made up of smaller schools that deal with special fields of learning. There’s so much to learn that one kind of school can’t offer it all.46.

The Olympic Games were held once every four years to honor the Greek god Zeus. Sportsmen from many nations took part in the games. The Greek Olympics did not have as many sports programmes as the modern Olympic Games. There were only a short race—a race of about three miles and some other matches such as jumping, boxing, etc.During the games all wars stopped. Soldiers were allowed to pass safely through enemy lines on their way to the games.The last Greek Olympics were held in 388 A.D.. Then the Roman rulers ordered the games be stopped.A Frenchman wished to renew the ideas of excellence of body, mind and spirit(精神) shown in the ancient Greek Olympics. He believed that the Olympic Games would bring about healthy competition among nations, so he decided to start the Olympic Games all over again. He succeeded. In 1896, the modern Olympic Games were held in Athens, Greece. Since then the Olympics have been growing steadily (稳健地) with more and more nations and athletes taking part. They have much more programmes than the Greek Olympics. Athletes of many nations compete in various kinds of sports.The Olympics have been held once every four years. They are held in a different city of the world. But they were not held in 1916, 1940, 1944 because of the world wars.The Olympic flame burns throughout the Games. It is the flame of peace.50.

Experts from the Children’s Hospital in Boston, US, have said that some teens don’t get enough of thi s important nutrient.Vitamin D is necessary for developing healthy bones. It is produced by the body with the help of sunlight. It can also be found in certain foods and drinks, such as livers (肝脏) and eggs. However, it is difficult to get enough vitamin D from food alone, which means enjoying the sunshine is very important.The doctors who ran the study tested 307 teenagers to discover how much vitamin D was in their blood. They found that 74 of the children tested—nearly 25 per cent—had vitamin D deficiency (缺乏). Of those 74, 14 were severely short of the nutrient.The doctors also found that the amount of the vitamin found in a child’s blood was affected by a number of factors. Vitamin D levels drop in winter, probably because less time is spent outside in the sunlight. Diet was also a key factor as well.Even skin color has an influence, as people with darker skin find it more difficult to produce the vitamin.Vitamin D deficiency can lead to many health problems for both children and adults. It is also believed that low levels of it can cause depression (抑郁).53. Vitamin D is important to your body in the way that it ______.A. helps to keep your liver work normallyB. helps to build your bonesC. helps to produce fresh bloodD. helps to take in nutrient from food54. We know from this passage that ______.A. 25 percent of the teenagers in the world have vitamin D deficiencyB. vitamin D plays an important role in a child’s bloodC. sunshine is one factor in gaining vitamin D for a humanD. the darker y our skin is, the more vitamin D you’ll get55. The best title for the passage would be ______.A. Vitamin D and Your BloodB. Where to Find Vitamin DC. Teenagers and Vitamin DD.
