Sally had gone upstairs.The people in the hall seemed very nosy (爱窥探的)，keeping their eyes on me with curiosity.What was their problem? I saw some nice sculptures in one room.Suddenly I sensed a man standing behind me.“Where do you think you are? ” he asked.I turned sharply.“The McNay Art Museum！” He smiled，shaking his head.“Sorry，the McNay is on New Braunfels Street.”“What’s this place？”I asked，still confused.“Well，it’s our home.” My heart jolted (震颤)．I raced to the staircase and called out，“Sally! Come down immediately！”“There’s some really good stuff (艺术作品) up there.” She stepped down，looking confused.I pushed her toward the front door，waving at the family，saying，“Sorry，please forgive us.You have a really nice place.” Outside，when I told Sally what happened，she covered her mouth，laughing.She couldn’t believe how long they let us look around without saying anything.The real McNay was splendid，but we felt nervous the whole time we were there.Van Gogh，Picasso.This time，we stayed together，in case anything else unusual happened.Thirty years later，a woman approached me in a public place.“Excuse me，did youever enter a residence，long ago，thinking it was the McNay Museum？”“Yes.But how do you know? We never told anyone.”“That was my home.I was a teenager sitting in the hall.Before you came over，I never realized what a beautiful place I lived in.I never felt lucky before.You thought it was a museum.My feelings about my home changed after that.I’ve always wanted to thank you.”( )11.What do we know about Marian McNay?A．She was a painter.

Unit 1 单元测试一、阅读理解（共两节，满分35分）第一节（共10小题，每小题2.5分，满分25分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
AFrom early times, man has been interested in art. People have often worked together to collect and save the world’s art treasures. Fine art treasures from many countries are kept in an art museum called the Louvre in Paris, France. The works of art have been collected by the people of France over many centuries. It is one of the biggest art museums in the world.The Louvre has not always been a museum. The first building was a fort（堡垒）. In 1190, it was the king’s castle with high walls and a round tower. It had a moat（护城河）to keep out the enemies. Over the years, the number of buildings around the castle grew. By 1350, the castle no longer needed a fort. The Louvre became a palace home for French kings and queens.During the time of peace, new treasures were brought in. During the days of war, many treasures were stolen, and the buildings were damaged.When Francis I became the King of France in 1515, he brought in many artists from other countries. One of the artists was Leonardo da Vinci from Italy. Da Vinci’s Mona Lisa is the best known painting in the museum today.In 1793, the Louvre became a public museum. It is a place where art treasures are kept for everyone to enjoy. Every year millions of people from all over the world come to the Louvre to see the masterpieces.1. Most of works of art in the Louvre have been collected probably by ________.A. the French peopleB. Francis IC. Leonardo da VinciD. people of the world2. Why is it good for the works of art to be kept in public museums?A. The works of art will not be stolen.B. The works of art will not be damaged.C. Artists can study the works of art.D. Everyone has a chance to enjoy the works of art.3. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?A. The Louvre is always a museum since it was built.B. All the art treasures in the Louvre have been destroyed in the war.C. The Louvre was once the king’s castle in history.D. There is still a fort near the Louvre now.BWhat killed King Tut? Historians and scientists have long believed that ancient Egypt’smost famous king was probably murdered. But a recent scientific study claims to have found adifferent answer to this more than 3,300-year-old mystery. A team of researchers now say thatKing Tut, the boy ruler, died of complications （并发症）from a broken leg.Tut’s full name was Tutankhamun. He was just 9 years old when he became the ruler ofEgypt in 1333 BC. His treasure-filled tomb was discovered almost a century ago. It was filled with royal riches, including a solid-gold coffin, a gold mask, and piles of jewelry.Unfortunately Tut died at the age of 19. Many experts have thought that Tut was killed by one of his advisers, named Ay, who wanted to be king. But thanks to a major modern science project, it seems Ay is innocent.Researchers set out to solve the mystery of King Tut’s death by using the tools of science, including DNA tests and electronic scans of his mummy（木乃伊）. Scientist Carsten Pusch carried out the tests on Tut for the new study. He thinks a broken leg led to the young king’s death. More than 100 walking sticks were found in King Tut’s tomb. This supports the team’s findings. But how could a person die from a simple broken leg?Pusch also found DNA evidence in Tut’s body that shows he had malaria, a disease carried by mosquitoes. Malaria seriously weakens the immune system（免疫系统）.Pusch and his fellow researchers believe the malaria and the bone disease together caused the king’s fracture （骨折）to become deadly. Finally, the young king was just too weak to recover. So effects of the disease combined with the bad luck of a broken bone —not a jealous adviser —are likely the real, causes of King Tut’s death.4. It has long been believed by historians and scientists that ________.A. King Tut was the youngest ruler in the world historyB. King Tut was the richest ruler in the history of EgyptC. King Tut was murdered by one of his advisersD. King Tut was poisoned by one of his servants.5. With the help of modern technology, the new study discovered that the king ________.A. died directly of a disease called malariaB. died of complications from a broken legC. died of a simple cut in the broken legD. was bitten to death by deadly mosquitoes6. Researchers uncovered the mystery of King Tut’s death by ________.A. testing the King’s immune systemB. studying the walking sticks found in the tombC. performing experiments on mosquitoesD. applying DNA tests and electronic scan technology7. The passage mainly tells us about ________.A. a different answer to King Tut’s deathB. a famous boy king in ancient EgyptC. a treasure-filled tomb discovered in EgyptD. a team of researchers studying ancient tombsCIn the 1960s, while studying the volcanic history of Yellowstone National Park, Bob Christiansen became puzzled about something that, oddly, had not troubled anyone before: he couldn’t find the park’s volcano. It had been known for a long time that Yellowstone was volcanic in nature —that’s what accounted for all its hot springs and other steamy features. But Christiansen couldn’t find the Yellowstone volcano anywhere.Most of us, when we talk about volcanoes, think of the classic cone（圆锥体）shapes of a Fuji or Kilimanjaro, which are created when erupting magma（岩浆）piles up. These can form remarkably quickly. In 1943, a Mexican farmer was surprised to see smoke rising from a small part of his land. In one week he was the confused owner of a cone five hundred feet high. Within two years it had topped out at almost fourteen hundred feet and was more than half a mile across. Altogether there are some ten thousand of these volcanoes on Earth, all but a few hundred of them extinct. There is, however, a second less known type of volcano that doesn’t involve mountain building. These are volcanoes so explosive that they burst open in a single big crack, leaving behind a vast hole, the caldera. Yellowstone obviously was of this second type, but Christiansen couldn’t find the caldera anywhere.Just at this time NASA decided to test some new high-altitude cameras by taking photographs of Yellowstone.A thoughtful official passed on some of the copies to the park authorities on the assumption that they might make a nice blow-up for one of the visitors’ centers. As soon as Christiansen saw the photos, he realized why he had failed to spot the caldera: almost the whole park —2.2 million acres —was caldera. The explosion had left a hole more than forty miles across —much too huge to be seen from anywhere at ground level. At some time in the past Yellowstone must have blown up with a violence far beyond the scale of anything known to humans.8. What puzzled Christiansen when he was studying Yellowstone?A. Its complicated geographical features.B. Its ever-lasting influence on tourism.C. The mysterious history of the park.D. The exact location of the volcano.9. What does the second paragraph mainly talk about?A. The shapes of volcanoes.B. The impacts of volcanoes.C. The activities of volcanoes.D. The heights of volcanoes.10. What does the underlined word “blow-up” in the last paragraph most probably mean?A. Hot-air balloon.B. Digital camera.C. Big photograph.D. Bird’s view.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

分析句子结构及结合句意可知，该句主句是 Adults, sometimes fail to see the joy in simple things，其中间是一个时间状语从句，后面是一个定语从句；其中，时间状语从句省略句表示“当成年人过度关注名利时”，应该用连接副词when引导；定语从句（simple things ________ children do not fail to see the joy）中先行词是simple things，在从句中做地点状语，应该用关系副词where引导。
故选C项。

They had two cups of coffee but paid for three and left.This time also,the waiter did the same;he posted a piece of paper on the wall saying,"A Cup of Coffee".It seemed that this gesture was quite normal here. However,it was something unique and puzzling us.When we finished our coffee,we paid the bill and left.After a few days,we went to this coffee shop again.While we were enjoying our coffee,a man entered.The way this man was dressed did not match the standard nor the atmosphere of this coffee shop. Poverty was obvious from the looks on his face.As he seated himself,he looked at the wall and said,"One cup of coffee from the wall."The waiter served coffee to this man with the customary respect and dignity. The man had his coffee and left without paying.We were amazed to watch all this when the waiter took offa piece of paper from the wall and threw it in the dustbin.Now it was no surprise for us.The great respect for the needy shown by the inhabitants of this town welled up our eyes with tears.（1）（2分）What's the best title for this passage?A．One More Coffee B．Coffee on the WallC．A Coffee Shop D．A Cup of Coffee（2）（2分）The customers paid extra money for coffee to________.A．help a friend B．tip the waiterC．give a stranger D．treat the writer（3）（2分）The customer who ordered coffee from the wall________.A．was dressed properlyB．felt embarrassed to enter the caféC．was moved to tearsD．was offered a good service（4）（2分）We can learn from the passage that the citizens of Venice are very________. A．generous B．rich C．happy D．careful11．（6分）阅读理解In the early1990s,Staffan Lindeberg from Lund University in Sweden travelled to Papua New Guinea to study the diet(饮食)of the people on the island of Kitava as this was very close to the Stone Age diet,that is,the food people ate many thousands of years ago before humans started farming.While there, he found that the people did not suffer from heart attacks,diabetes(糖尿病),being overweight and many other diseases common in western countries.As a result of his findings,he decided to test patients in Sweden to see how such a diet would influence them.Fourteen patients followed a Stone Age diet while another fifteen followed a Mediterranean diet.All of the patients in the tests had high blood sugar levels,most suffered from diabetes and they all had some problems with their hearts.At the end of three months,the group following the Mediterranean diet had reduced(减少)their blood sugar levels by a small amount but those following the Stone Age diet had much lower levels of sugar in their blood.The patients in both groups also lost weight although the level of sugar in the blood and the patients'weight didn't seem to be related.So,what is it about the Stone Age diet that can make us healthier?The diet contains(包含)some meat,fish,fruit,vegetables and nuts but it doesn't contain any dairy products or grains(牛奶制品和谷物), such as wheat or rice,and there is no salt.The next question is whether the Kitavan people are healthier than us.According to Professor Lindeberg,this is not as simple as we may think.Because of not having enough healthcare,there is more chance of them dying at a young age.However,if people on Kitava manage to reach fifty,they might live as long as people in more developed countries.（1）（2分）What did Lindeberg's tests in Sweden show?A．The Mediterranean diet was unhealthy.B．The Stone Age diet could make people healthier.C．People's blood sugar levels had something to do with their weight.D．People who like eating fruit and vegetables had fewer heart problems.（2）（2分）What's so special about the Stone Age diet?A．No salt.B．No meat.C．A lot of grains.D．Too much sugar.（3）（2分）What can we infer about the Kitavan people according to Professor Lindeberg? A．Most of them need to lose weight.B．They are healthier than westerners.C．Many of them cannot live to the age of fifty.D．They generally have high blood sugar levels.三、任务型阅读(共1题；共5分)12．（5分）任务型阅读Culture shock has many stages.Each stage can appear only at certain times.In the first stage, everything is new and exciting.New arrivals may be pleased by all the new things around them.Afterwards,the second stage presents itself.A person may go through some difficult times in daily life.This happens when a person is trying to fit in with a new culture.It is a difficult process and takes time to complete.The third stage is featured by gaining some understanding of the new culture.The new arrival may not feel lost any more.The person begins to learn more about the new culture and wants to belong to it.In the fourth stage,the person gradually realizes that the new culture has good and bad things tooffer.This process is often accompanied(伴随)by a much stronger feeling of belonging.The fifth stage is the stage that is called the"re-entry shock".One may find that things are no longer the same.For example,some of the newly acquired customs are not in use in the old culture.These stages are present at different times and each person has his/her own way of reacting in the stages of culture shock.As a result,some stages will be longer and more difficult than others.A．This time is called the"honeymoon"stage.B．The person starts to establish goals for living.C．Luckily,this often comes to an end fairly soon.D．A new feeling of pleasure may be experienced.E．Communicating with others is a good way to start.F．This happens when a return to the homeland is made.G．In this stage,there may be feelings of sadness and helplessness.答案解析部分1．【答案】As【解析】【分析】句意：就像你在信中解释的那样,我们应该把钱直接捐给希望工程。

But Christiansen couldn’t find the Yellowstone volcano anywhere.Most of us, when we talk about volcanoes, think of the classic cone（圆锥体）shapes of a Fuji or Kilimanjaro, which are created when erupting magma（岩浆）piles up. These can form remarkably quickly. In 1943, a Mexican farmer was surprised to see smoke rising from a small part of his land. In one week he was the confused owner of a cone five hundred feet high. Within two years it had topped out at almost fourteen hundred feet and was more than half a mile across. Altogether there are some ten thousand of these volcanoes on Earth, all but a few hundred of them extinct. There is, however, a se cond less known type of volcano that doesn’t involve mountain building. These are volcanoes so explosive that they burst open in a single big crack, leaving behind a vast hole, the caldera. Yellowstone obviously was of this second type, but Christiansen co uldn’t find the caldera anywhere.Just at this time NASA decided to test some new high-altitude cameras by taking photographs of Yellowstone.A thoughtful official passed on some of the copies to the park authorities on the assumption that they might make a nice blow-up for one of the visitors’ centers. As soon as Christiansen saw the photos, he realized why he had failed to spot the caldera: almost the whole park —2.2 million acres —was caldera. The explosion had left a hole more than forty miles across —much too huge to be seen from anywhere at ground level. At some time in the past Yellowstone must have blown up with a violence far beyond the scale of anything known to humans.8. What puzzled Christiansen when he was studying Yellowstone?A. Its complicated geographical features.B. Its ever-lasting influence on tourism.C. The mysterious history of the park.D. The exact location of the volcano.9. What does the second paragraph mainly talk about?A. The shapes of volcanoes.B. The impacts of volcanoes.C. The activities of volcanoes.D. The heights of volcanoes.10. What does the underlined word “blow-up” in the last paragraph most probably mean?A. Hot-air balloon.B. Digital camera.C. Big photograph.D. Bird’s view.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

They range from the 1960s Nubian campaign to safeguard Ancient Egyptian monuments from the waters of the Aswan Dam to the removal in 2018 of the Belize Barrier Reef from the List of World Heritage in Danger. Conservation is the core purpose of the World Heritage Convention and it may also be its biggest challenge.The following example shows how successes at specific sites now serve as models for conservation and sustainable(可持续性) development. A year after Vienna was included on the World Heritage List in 2001, the World Heritage Committee (WHC) expressed concerns about the architectural solutions and height of four planned towers of the Wien-Mitte project. This development project, close to the Historic Centre of Vienna in the site’s buffer zone, the one that lies between two or more other areas, affected the urban scale(规模) and visual effects in and around the property(地产). As a result of the Committee’s concerns, Vienna changed its building codes and launched a new design competition for the Wien-Mitte project to work out architectural plans with reduced size in keeping with World Heritage protection.The successful practice inspired the government of the city to invite over 600 experts and professionals from 55 countries to an international conference on World Heritage and contemporary architecture, held in Vienna in May 2005. The global discussion that followed, detailing an approach to managing conservation anddevelopment, was recorded in the UNESCO Recommendation in 2011.The Recommendation put forwards an all-rounded and combined approach to balancing urban heritage conservation and economic development, arguing that active protection and management of urban heritage supports the goal of sustainable development.The Recommendation supports the harmonious combination of contemporary involvement into the historic urban framework while holding on to values linked to history, memory and the environment.1．Why does the author mention the Belize Barrier Reef in Paragraph 1? A ．To explain the goal of the organization. B ．To encourage the public to protect the world. C ．To show the positive effect of conservation. D ．To remind people of the environmental problems. 2．Why was WHC worried about the Wien-Mitte project? A ．It took up too much public land of the city. B ．It had a bad effect on the Historic Centre of Vienna. C ．Its original designs were not environmentally friendly. D ．Its architectural solutions couldn’t me et safety standards. 3．What did the global discussion focus on?A ．The ways to combine conservation and development.B ．The creation of the new UNESCO Recommendation.C ．The international urban management and development.D ．The styles of the contemporary architecture of Vienna. 4．What is the authors purpose in writing the text?A ．To examine the challenges faced by global urban planners.B ．To introduce alternative ways of protecting the environment.C ．To stress the importance of the value of history and memory.此卷只装订不密封班级 姓名 准考证号 考场号 座位号D．To promote active conservation and sustainable development.BImagine walking through an ancient city, then climbing a gate tower to take in a wonderful view of the city and its more than 600-year-old walls.
