高考英语一轮总复习课时作业31Unit1Livingwell（含解析）新人教版选修7课时作业 31Ⅰ.阅读理解(2019·绥德中学高三阶段性测试)Are you sick of going to bed late and waking up tired? Then grab your hiking boots and a tent. A new study suggests that camping in the great outdoors for a couple of days can reset your body clock and help you get more sleep.The body clock is an internal system that tells our bodies when it's time to go to sleep and when it's time to wake up. Scientists track this clock by measuring the amount of melatonin (褪黑激素) circulating in a person's blood at any given time.In a healthy sleeper, melatonin levels rise a few hours before bedtime, stay high through the night, and then settle back down when it's time to wake up.In our modern society, however, most of us stay up many hours past sunset and would probably sleep in many hours after sunrise if we could. And the trouble is, your melatonin levels may still be high when your alarm clock goes off in the morning, which leads to fatigue. It may also have other health consequences as well, such as diabetes(糖尿病), overweight and heart disease.Professor Kenneth Wright of the University of Colorado in the US wanted to see if our body clocks can be reset by a short stay in nature. His team recruited(招募)fourteen physically active volunteers in their 20s and 30s. Nine went on a weekend camping trip, while the other five stayed home. At the end of the weekend, the researchers reported that in just two days, the campers' body clocks had shifted so that their melatonin levels began to rise more than an hour earlier than they did before they left on the trip. By contrast, the body clocks of the group that stayed home shifted even later over the course of the weekend.“This tells us we can reset our clocks fast，”Wright said.Therefore, if you want to change your sleep patterns you could try to increase your exposure to natural light during the day and decrease the amount of artificial light you see at night. And if that doesn't work, there's always camping.本文为说明文。

Recently I and other Red Cross volunteers met a group of victims from Hurricane Katrina. We were there, as mental health professionals, to offer ＂psychological first aid＂ and I was struck by the simple healing power of presence. As we walked in the gate to the shelter, we were greeted with a burst of gratitude (感激) from the first person we met. I felt appreciated, but also guilty, because I hadn’t really done anything yet.I first realized the power of presence many years ago when a friend’s mother passed away unexpectedly.I had received a call saying she had just passed away. I wanted to rush down there immediately, but didn’t want to intrude (打扰) on this very personal period of sadness. I was torn about what to do. Another friend with me then said, ＂Just go. Just be there.＂ I did, and I will never regret it.Since then, I have not hesitated to be in the presence of others. Once I sat at the bedside of a young man suffering from the pain of his AIDS —related dying. He was not awak e, and obviously unaware of others’ presence. However, the atmosphere was by no means solemn. His family, playing guitars and singing, allowed him to be present with them as though he were still fully alive.In my life, I am repeatedly struck by the healing power of presence. In it, none of us are truly alone. It is not only something we give to others but also changes me for the better.1.Why were the hurricane victims grateful to the author?A. He built shelters for them.B. He gave immediate first aid to them.C. He came to stay with them.D. He brought mental health professionals.2.What did the author do when his friend’s mother passed away?A. He hesitated over whether to go.B. He went to his friends’ at once.C. He knew what to do instantly.D. He decided not to disturb.3.What does the underlined word ＂solemn＂ in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. Heavy but warm.B. A little sad but cosy.C. Relaxing and delightful.D. Very serious and unhappy.4.What has the author learned from his experience?A. A friend in need is a friend indeed.B. Being present can make a big difference.C. The family harmony is the happiest thing in life.D. Being a volunteer can make one’s life more significant【文章大意】本文是一篇记叙文。

(xx·天水模拟)He met her at a party. She was outstanding; many guys were after her, but nobody paid any attention to him. After the party, he invited her for coffee. She was surprised, so as not to appear rude, she went along.As they sat in a nice coffee shop, he was too nervous to say anything and she felt unfortable. Suddenly, he asked the waiter, “Could you please give me some salt? I’d like to put it in my coffee.”They stared at him. He turned red, but when the salt came, he put it in his coffee and drank. Curious, she asked, “Why salt with coffee？” He explained, “When I was a little boy, I lived near the sea. I liked playing on the sea. I could feel it salty, like salty coffee. Now every time I drink it, I think of my childhood and my hometown. I miss it and my parents, who are still there.”She was deeply moved. A man who can admit that he’s homesick must love his home and care about his family. He must be responsible. She talked too, about her faraway hometown, her childhood, her family. That was the start to their love story.They continued to date. She found that he met all her requirements. He was tolerant, kind, warm and careful. And to think she would have missed the catch if not for the salty coffee! So they married and lived happily together. And every time she made coffee for him, she put in some salt, the way he liked it.After 40 years, he passed away and left her a letter which said：My dearest, please forgive my life­long lie. Remember the first time we dated?I was so nervous that I asked for salt instead of sugar. It was hard for me to ask for a change, so I just went ahead. I never thought that we would hit it off. Many times, I tried to tell you the truth, but I was afraid that it would ruin everything. Sweetheart, I don’t exactly like salty coffee. But as it mattered so much to you, I’ve learnt to enjoy it. Having you with me was my greatest happiness. If I could live a second time, I hope we can be together again, even if it means that I have to drink salty coffee for the rest of my life.1. She accepted his invitation for coffee because ________．A. she fell in love with himB. she didn’t want to be impoliteC. no one paid attention to himD. no one else was interested in her2. Why the man asked for some salt was because ________．A. salty coffee made him miss his parents.B. he want to catch the attention of the ladyC. he was so nervous that he made a mistakeD. he was telling a lie on purpose3. What might be the woman’s feeling after she read the letter?A. movedB. cheatedC. hurtD. angry4. The best title for the passage might be ________．A. A Life­long LieB. Salty CoffeeC. A Mistake for LoveD. A Homesick Man答案1－4 BCAB(xx·温州模拟)We all love our parents and turn to them when we’re in need, but would you like them to hear the conversations you have with your friends on the school playground or lunch queue? Social networking sites have bee extensions of the school hallways, so would you add your parents as “friends” and allow them to view your online activities and conversations with friends?In the past the generation gap included a technology gap, where children were up to date with latest technology and parents were left behind, content to continue their day to day lives as they always had because they had no need to know more about technology. However, more and more parents are beginning to realize just how important social networks are in their lives. This realization has given many parents the motivation to educate themselves about social networking sites.These days many people are attracted to social networking sites because they can choose who they have around them; there’s also a certain amount of control over privacy that we don’t get in real life. Sometimes we feel that privacy is violated when we must accept a “friend” request from a parent or family member.It’s a difficult choice whether or not to allow a parent to bee a part of our online lives. On the one hand we don’t want to “reject” their request because that might hurt their feelings or make them feel you have something to hide. On theother hand if you do accept, then you could have a sense of being watched and no longer feel free to ment or municate the way you did before.A recent survey suggested that parents shouldn’t take it personally if their child ignores their request, “When a teen ignores a parent’s friend request, it doesn’t necessarily mean that they are hiding something, but it could mean that this is one part of their life where they want to be independent.”Perhaps talking with parents and giving explanations would help soften the blow if you do choose not to add them to your friends list.5. From Paragraph 2, we learn that ________.A. parents feel secure about their privacy onlineB. social networks successfully fill the generation gapC. parents have realized the importance of social networksD. social networks offer a platform for parents to municate6. Teenagers may refuse a parent’s friend request because ________.A. they hide something from their parentsB. they are unwilling to be watched by parentsC. their parents tend to fall behind in technologyD. their parents make negative ments on them7. The passage is mainly about ________.A. privacy onlineB. social networksC. the generation gapD. parents’ friend requests8. The passage is written mainly for ________.A. parentsB. teenagersC. teachersD. researchers答案与解析【文章大意】本文是有关很多父母进入社交网站希望加孩子为好友，但是这样的要求往往被孩子拒绝，因为他们不想被父母注视着。

Unit 1 Living wellⅠ.阅读理解A(2021·山东新高考第一次模拟) Every so often，someone so young does something so amazing that you can't help but wonder how he manages it.That's what happened the first time we heard Matthew Whitaker play the piano.Matthew is a jazz pianist who is blind，and since the age of 11，he's been performing around the world.Matthew Whitaker was born at the 24th week.He weighed 1 pound and 11 ounces.His parents were told he had a less than 50% chance of survival.One of the many complications(并发症)he faced was a disease which led to blindness.No one in Matthew's family was a musician，but his grandfather bought him his first keyboard when he was three years old.It didn't take long for Matthew to show that he had a gift.So the Whitakers decided to get Matthew a teacher，which proved to be difficult.“At the time，we got a lot of answers that he's too young and they don't know how to teach a blind child，”Moses Whitaker said.“He was three years old at the time.”Finally，Dalia Sakas agreed to meet Matthew.Dalia is the director of music studies at a music school in New York City，a school for the visually impaired.To her surprise，Matthew could listen to a piece of music once and then play it.“Because it is rare to meet such a person and I want to make that possible.”She did.Matthew has played in more than 200 clubs and concert halls around the world.His love of music has never been in doubt.Matthew's latest album is called Now Hear This.One critic noted that it sounded like Matthew was playing with six hands.语篇解读本文是一篇记叙文。

Gregory Talley used to sleep in a park or under a bridge. The 50-year-old has been homeless for more than 10 years."It is hard. It's hard to live homeless. You filled every day trying to find out where you are going to get something to eat. If I hadn't found wonderful Fairfax County Kennedy Shelter, I wouldn't know where I would be by now. I might be dead," Talley said.The Kennedy Shelter is one of the facilities New Hope Housing provides for homeless people.Pam Michell has devoted her life to making the lives of this vulnerable (易受伤的)population better as executive director of the non-profit organization."I went to Africa in 1985. And I saw a huge amount of poverty, but I saw so much hope. And I decided that I should try to do something that would bring hope to people," Michell said.When Michell began working with New Hope Housing 25 years ago, its three shelters had about 80 beds. Now, it has 350 beds and serves about 1,500 homeless people every year. She has expanded the program beyond just providing beds for the night."We do outreach(拓展), we do prevention, we do permanent housing, we do transitional housing. We have an education program with all sorts of different things to move people to end their homelessness," she said,"Our Out of Poverty program is not just about money. It's about you could be spiritually poor, you could be relationship poor ... you could be educationally poor. So it is focusing on how you get out of this poverty that has brought you to being homeless." The program tries to teach the shelter residents self-reliance (自立) and work values, and includes courses on planning and personal responsibility. "l learned I still have opportunities to change it and I can change it," said shelter resident Lewis Webster. "It is just about going forth in doing necessary work to do it. I mean if you really want better, you would do better and that's the frame of mind of me now."1. Gregory Talley’s story is told at the beginning of the text to _________ .A.tell readers the situation for the poor in the US is getting worseB.introduce a non-profit organization that is trying to help the poor in the USC.disclose the truth that more and more homeless people are dying from hungerD.remind readers that the homeless people in the US have no trouble getting food2.

What is the final purpose of the education program?A.To tell the homeless people the ways to make money.B.To help the homeless people find the causes of their poverty.C.To encourage the homeless to work and rely on themselves.D.To teach the poor how to live a better life in the shelters.4. What may be the best title for the text?fort in the Kennedy ShelterB.Ways to achieve successC.An Opportunity to Fight HomelessnessD.An Organisation to End Homelessness【文章大意】文章介绍美国非营利组织Fairfax County Kennedy Shelter帮助无家可归者结束流浪生活。

(2020·河南洛阳高三第一次统考)All over the world mothers and fathers teach their children manners.Other children may have manners that are not like yours.There are all kinds of manners.Many years ago，children who had good manners were seen and not heard.They kept quite quiet if grown­ups were talking. Today, well­mannered children have more freedom.Sometimes good manners in one place are bad manners in other places. Suppose you are a visitor in the land of Mongolia. Some friends ask you to eat with them. What kind of manners do they want you to have? They want you to give a loud “burp(打嗝)” after you finish eating. Burping would show that you like your food. In some countries, if you give a loud burp, you are told to say “Excuse me, please.” In many places people like to eat together. But in some parts of Polynesia it is bad manners to be seen eating at all. People show good manners by turning their backs on others while they eat. What are manners like in an East African town? The people try not to see you. They are being polite. You may see a friend. He may not see you at all. If you are polite, you will sit down beside him. You will wait until he finishes what he is doing.Then he will talk to you.Suppose you visit a friend in Arabia.You should walk behind the other tents until you come to his tent.If you pass in front of the other tents，you will be asked into each one.The people will ask you to eat with them.And it is bad manners if you say no.Manners are different all over the world.But it is good to know that all manners begin in the same way.People need ways to show that they want to be friends.【解题导语】本文要紧介绍了世界上一些地点的礼仪。

direct solution，regardless of how I feel about actually implementing (实施) it.What is the clearest，most direct pathto my goal or the most efficient way to get around an obstacle?Many problems will have multiple direct solutions，but often these solutions will be unple asant at first glance because they’ll require courage，self­discipline，creativity，or persistence to implement.__1__For example，suppose you wa nt to lose weight.And suppose we can say that one of direct solutions is to eat the same as you’re eating now and increase your exercise output by 500 calories a day.__2__It may require discipline and persistence，but most people would agree that it will work if you follow through.Another example：__3__However，you don’t know how that person feels about you.One direct solution would be to simply walk up，explain your thoughts and feelings，and ask if she or he is interested in discussing the possibility of a closer relationship.This will take less than a minute to say，and whatever the outcome is，at least you know where you stand.__4__Anyhow it’s very simple and straightforward.__5__What’s the simplest and quickest way to reach your goal，assuming that you had limitless courage and discipline?A．Of course this solution may require a lot of courage to overcome the possibility of rejection.B．But if we can get ourselves to follow through，we know the solutions will actually work.C．See if you can identify the most direct solution to some of your problems.D．So the best way to overcome the difficulty is to ask your friends for advice.E．If you implement this rather simple
