高考英语选修8 Unit 2提分题(精选)Ⅰ阅读理解(2018·四川成都诊断)Wouldn’t it be wonderful to travel to a foreign country without having to worry about the headache of communicating in a different language?In a recent article from The Wall Street Journal, technology policy expert Alec Ross argued that,within a decade or so, we’ll be able to communicate with one another via small earpieces with builtin microphones. That’s because technological progress is extremely rapid.It’s only a matter of time. Indeed, some parents are so convinced that this technology is imminent that they’re wondering if their kids should even learn a second language.It’s true that an increase in the quantity and accuracy of the data loaded into computers will make them cleverer at tra nslating “No es bueno dormir mucho” as “It’s not good to sleep too much”. Replacing a word with its equivalent(对应词) in the target language is actually the “easy part” of a translator’s job.But even this seems to be a discouraging task for computers.It’s so difficult for computers because translation doesn’t —or shouldn’t—involve simply translating words, sentences or paragraphs. Rather, it’s about translating meaning. And in order to infer meaning from a specific expression, humans have to interpret a mass of information at the same time.Think about all the related clues that go into understanding an expression: volume, gesture, situation, and even your culture. All are likely to convey as much meaning as the words you use.Therefore ,we should be very skeptical of a machine that is unable to interpret the world around us. If people from different cultures can offend each other without realizing it, how can we expect a machine to do better? Unless engineers actually find a way to breathe a soul into a computer, undoubtedly when it comes to conveying and interpreting meaning using a natural language, a machine will never fully take our place.【解题导语】技术专家说随着技术的进步,即时翻译机器将在大约十年内出现在市场上。

课时提能练(四十五)选修8Unit 23Conflict(A)Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2020·铜陵第三次摸底)On a February morning 13 years ago we pulled into the driveway, excited and proud, and lined up our kids for photos. It was a big day, but back then we had no idea how it would shape our lives.That van (旅行拖车) is linked to so many great memories —soccer games, camping trips, and a 24hour journey to Florida to visit grandparents and one threeweek holiday to the east coast, full of long conversations and classic rock played on cassette tapes. In that van, I laughed my head off while going out with friends, and cried my eyes out at the death of a loved one. I've dreamed and planned and moved homes while traveling on those four trusty wheels.There were days when it drove_me_nuts,_too. On cold winter mornings, the sliding doors would freeze shut. Anyone who wanted to sit in the backseats had to climb in through the front. Still, we've held on to our van for as long as possible. It never ever let us down, even as the repair bills got a little bigger each year and we faithfully fixed whatever was needed to keep it on the road safely.Yesterday we finally made the decision. It was time to find a newer, smaller, more energyefficient (高效节能的) replacement. The van was telling us it was time.Saying goodbye is never easy. As we close the minivan chapter(篇章)of our lives, my heart sinks -not just for the muchloved metal box on wheels that we've driven for more than a decade, but for the days, months and years that passed by so quickly. The story of our minivan is the story of our family.【语篇解读】这是一篇夹叙夹议的文章。
课时提能练(四十三)选修8Unit 22Environmental Protection(A) Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2020·绵阳市第一次诊断性考试)Wheat is a main source of food for people across the planet,accounting for a fifth of the calories consumed globally.But as a result of climate change,scientists believe most parts of the world where the crop is grown will be hit by water shortages by the end of the century.And the U.S.could be among the countries worst affected,the authors of the research published in the journal Science Advances told Newsweek.If climate change isn't dealt with,by the year 2100,60 percent of areas that grow wheat will be hit by water scarcity — up from the current level of 15 percent,according to the international team of scientists.Coauthors Miroslav Trnka and Song Feng told Newsweek that in their previous research,they had shown climate change may cause soil to become less moist (湿润的)across most mainland U.S.states,including those where wheat is grown.As a result,the U.S.could be “one of the top most affected wheat producers” in terms of the increase in areas affected by severe droughts,they said in a joint statement.Worryingly,existing research has predicted a 4.0 to 6.5 percent drop in global wheat production per 1 degree Celsius of warming if climate change isn't eased.And it's unlikely that wheat can be replaced if water becomes scarce,as it's not as thirsty as other crops and can do without water for a relatively long period of time.“If multiple regions are affected by drought at the same time,it might be difficult to meet the demand even if the trade routes stay open and are not restricted by governmental measures,” warned Feng and Trnka.However,they said,“Studies show that if we continuously improve the sustainability and technologies in the coming decades and allow for international trade,we may overcome the negative impacts of climate change.”【语篇解读】科学家认为由于气候变化,到本世纪末,世界上大部分种植小麦的地区将受到缺水的影响,而如果气候变化得不到缓解,全球小麦的产量将会减少。
课时练1阅读理解提速练Ⅰ阅读理解A(2018·福建高中毕业班质检)The World Health Organization(WHO) said that processed meat may be carcinogenic(致癌的).Do youstill dare eat cancer-linked processed meat? Here are some comments onthe website.Bill (Australia) I’d rather live a short, pleasant life than a long,unhappy one, denying(拒绝给予) myself tasty food just because some experts say it’s not healthy.We should all enjoy the one life we have—if I had listened to every piece of health advice I would never go anywhere, eat anything or enjoy life in any way.So, I won’t change my habit.I am going to have a bacon sandwich, glass of wine, burger, can of coke whenever I feel like it.Tim (America) Is meat really as bad as smoking?I don’t think so.According to the WHO 34,000 people die worldwide per year because they eat processed meat.In 2012, 8.2 million people died of cancer worldwide.That means if you eat a lot of processed meat you have a chance of being among the 0.41 percent of people dying of cancer because of processe d meat.I’ll take the chance.Helen (Switzerland) The WHO doesn’t say that just one bite of meat causes cancer, it is rather saying that people should vary their diet.People who eat more meat often have other unhealthy habits.They usually eat fewer fruits and vegetables and they also often exercise less.Van(China) Perhaps this report will make people consider becoming vegetarians(素食者).So for your health, the environment and future generations, it is not difficult; it just needs a change of attitude.There is a vast variety of other delicious food available to enjoy.【解题导语】本文主要介绍了一些网民对于世界卫生组织公布的食用加工肉制品可能致癌的这一信息的个人看法。

选修八Unit 2 高考提能练阅读理解·组块专练——练速度(限时:35分钟)Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2016·潍坊市高三一模)Blind Dates at Alchemy in the DarkSoup on my nose, a nearly spilt glass of wine and chocolate down my white blouse, as blind dates suggest, this was a really messy one. I had never made so much noise with plates and glasses, nor had I dined with a never-before-met companion. This blind date was quite different: we could see nothing. “Put your left hand on my shoulder, and then we’ll take small steps forward,” said Michael, the visually impaired waiter, in an East London accent. We three felt our way carefully bumping past heavy curtains before being arranged at the dining table, where we would eat and drink three completely secret and unseen courses.Welcome to Alchemy in the Dark, Hong Kong’s first restaurant in total darkness. Upon arrival, diners briefly tell the chef about their allergies (过敏性反应), lock away their mobile phones and enter the windowless restaurant, which can seat 25 customers. When the meal is over, the contents of the delicious menu are shown — often to the diners’surprise. “This is definitely duck,” my companion said, while eating chicken. “This soup,”I declared, “is carrot and coriander.” Even the tooclose smell did not reveal the real tomato and cumin flavors. Dining in the dark changes everything: the sense of smell is heightened, manners go out of the window —using your hands to feel around the plates becomes normal —and there is a strange thrill in being able to ignore your facial expressions. Best of all? You don’t have to spend hours beforehand wondering what to wear.Alchemy in the Dark is at 16 Arbuthnot Road, Central, tel: 6821 2801 and is open Monday to Saturday, from 7 pm to 11 pm. Reservations are required. A three-course meal with wine pairing costs HK$700 per person. 5% of all profits go to The Hong Kong Society for the Blind.语篇解读:本文为一篇记叙文。
文章讲述了作者在Alchemy in the Dark的一次独特的就餐经历,并对该餐厅做了简单的介绍。
1.How did the author and her companion arrive at their dining table?A.By being directed.B.By feeling their way.C.By being led.D.By finding it by themselves.解析:选C细节理解题。

2.According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?A.The diners might eat what they are allergic to.B.The author enjoyed a special lunch at Alchemy in the Dark.C.The diners aren’t allowed to take phones to the restaurant.D.The restaurant donated some money to The Hong Kong Society for the Blind.解析:选D细节理解题。
根据文章第二段的第二句可排除A和C选项;根据最后一段中的“open Monday to Saturday, from 7 pm to 11 pm”可排除B选项;根据最后一段的最后一句可知,餐厅利润的5%捐赠给香港盲人协会,故选D项。
3.From the text we can learn that the author ________.A.had the table bookedB.shared the meal with a friendC.practised how to eat in total darknessD.chose her clothes in advance for the meal解析:选A推理判断题。

B(2016·郑州市第一次质检)Drinks Have No WingsYou may have heard that “Red Bull gives you wings”. But while most people take the advertising slogan as a metaphor (隐喻), some Americans seem to have taken it very seriously.Benjamin Careathers had been drinking the drink for 10 years, expecting to at least feel more energetic, but nothing happened. Feeling fooled by the ad, he took the issue to court in January, 2013.In October, the Austria-based company agreed to pay $6.5 million (39.7 million yuan) tocustomers who have bought the drink since 2002. People in the US can apply for a share through before March,2015.But is the case really that ridiculous?Red Bull said they had done nothing wrong and they only paid the money to save the cost and trouble of legal action.However, the suit told a different story. Even though there is no evidence that Red Bull energy drinks provide more benefit for consumers than a cup of coffee, the company markets their products as a superior source of energy that costs little.“Such conduct means that Red Bull’s advertising and marketing is not just ’puffery’,but is misleading and therefore actionable (可诉讼的),” the suit said.The company said that the drink could promote healthy joints and reduce the risk of eye diseases. However, according to the organization, the product contains a lot of sugar, which could actually lead to many health problems.Coca-Cola agreed to pay $1.2 million in compensation in July. But to fully stop the company from linking the drink to health benefits, Truth in Advertising, another non-profit organization, took the issue to court again in late October.False advertisements have become a common problem around the world. China changed its consumer rights law last year to ban advertising companies and media from making or publishing false advertisements. Celebrities (明星) are also made responsible if they endorse (代言) false or substandard products.语篇解读:本文以“红牛”为例,告诉我们夸大其辞做虚假宣传的商家会受到法律的严惩。
