Unit 2 The United Kingdom Language points课时作业第一部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）AAt the end of March, the Red Cross called back. Six different blood elements were tested; Jennie matched five completely and was about a 3/4 match of the sixth. She was the best match.In April, Jennie went for a complete physical exam by one of the doctors who would perform the operation. The doctor had to make sure that it would be no threat to her. The doctor told her that the operation would entail (需要) having two quarts of bone marrow(骨髓) taken out from her hip bones. Jennie could probably leave the hospital the same day the operation took place and should expect to be sore(疼痛的) for a couple of months.“I didn’t think it was that big a deal until I realized I was a match,” Jennie said. “There wasn’t a question in my head. It didn’t seem like something that was going above and beyond.”Jennie was left two little scars on her lower back from the operation. She still felt a great deal of pressure on her lower back. “Being only 21, I feel like I am not old enough to significantly impact someone’s life,” Jennie said. “It seems odd(奇特的) to me that I could possibly save this overseas woman’s life which was being cut short by cancer.”Three weeks after the operation, Jennie received a call from the Red Cross representative who told her the transplant was successful. “ I feel good, and I think it would actually work for her,” she said. “So many people say they’d only dona te if the bone marrow is for a family member or a close friend. This woman is someone’s family and someone’s friend. Obviously no one she knows is a match, and the fact that you’d be able to help a perfect stranger is great.”1 Before Jennie knew she was t he best match, her feeling could best be described as “________”.A calmB excitedC frightenedD nervous2 The underlined word “impact” in Paragraph 4 most probably means “______________”.A. enjoy the beauty of somethingB. have an important effect on somethingC. devote all one’s life to somethingD. end the dangerous practice of something3 According to the last paragraph, Jennie would probably agree that ____________.A .everyone should donate their bone marrow to a stranger.B .a family member is more important than a friend.C .more people should donate bone marrow.D .there is no need to help a relative or a friend.4 What can we learn about the woman helped by Jennie?A.She has no relatives or friends. B .She and Jennie live in the same country.C.She used to work for the Red Cross.D.She was diagnosed(诊断) with cancer.BFirst aid is emergency care for a victim of sudden illness or injury until more skillful medical treatment is available. First aid may save a life or improve certain vital signs including pulse, temperature, a clear airway, and breathing. In minor emergencies, first aid may prevent a victim’s condition from worsening and provide relief from pain. First aid must be given as quickly as possible. In the case of seriously injured, a few minutes can make the difference between complete recovery and loss of life.First aid measures depend upon a victim’s needs and provider’s level of knowledge and skill. Knowing what not to do in an emergency is as important as knowing what to do. Improperly moving a person with a neck injury , for example, can lead to permanent spinal(脊柱的) injury and paralysis( 瘫痪)。

He has to stay there for long periods of time... I miss him when he is gone, ” Stephanie, who is from Houston, Texas, said in a video. “I think if we could write a really big message he would be able to see it from space. ”Hyundai took her wish to heart and decided to take on the challenge. Using Nevada's Delamar Dry Lake as a canvas (画布), 11 drivers drove Hyundai cars, spelling out “Steph s you” across 2.14 square miles of desert. A promotional video, which Hyundai made to record the process, caught her father's response and showed the picture he took of her message from the ISS.“I am happy that he could see it and knows that we are thinking about him back home, ” Stephanie said. “He has seen so man y things up there, but I hope that this message was the most special. ”There are many misunderstandings about what can and cannot be seen from space. Contrary to popular belief, the Great Wall of China cannot be seen from space, but many seemingly less important things can be seen.“A farmer from Louisiana could be burning wastes in his backyard, and it would make a big smoke trail that astronauts could see from space, ” said Mike Gentry, a photo researcher for NASA's human－tended vehicles. And with a special camera, they can see the earth in great detail and even keep an eye on their favorite sports teams.1．What can we know about Stephanie's father?A．He likes taking pictures.B．He spends little time at home.C．He works in a car company.D．He often sends messages to his daughter.2．How did Hyundai help the girl?A．By offering a free ride.B．By taking her to a guided tour.C．By replaying her father's response.D．By making a large picture with cars.3．Which of the following can be seen from space?A.A moving car.B．A standing farmer.C．The Great Wall of China.D．The smoke of burning rubbish.4．What is the best title for the text?A．Send Love to SpaceB．A Girl of Great TalentC．Observe the Earth Far AwayD．A New Way to Explore SpaceB[2022·福建师大附中高一期末]When it comes to who is happier, people with kids or those without, most research points to the latter. But a new study suggests that parents are happier than non－parents later in life, when their children move out and become sources of social enjoyment rather than stress.Most surveys of parental happiness have focused on those whose children still live at home. These tend to show that people with kids are less happy than their child－free peers because they have less free time, sleep and money.Christoph Becker at Heidelberg University in Germany and his colleagues wondered if the story might be different for parents whose kids have left home. To find out, they analyzed data from a European survey that asked 55，000 people aged 50 and older about their emotional well－being.They found that, in this older age group, people with children had greater life satisfaction and fewer symptoms of depression than people without children, but only if their kids had left home.“This may be because when children grow up and move out, they provide social enrichment to their parents minus (抵消) the day－to－day stress of looking after them，” says Becker. They may also give something back by providing care andfinancial support to their parents, he says. “Hence, children's role as caregivers, financial support or simply as social contact might outweigh negative aspects of parenthood，” he says.If parents disobey the idea of waiting for their kids to move out to maximize their potential happiness, they could move to a country with better childcare support, says Becker. A 2016 study of 22 countries found that parents with children at home were actually slightly happier than their child－free peers if they lived in places like Norway, Portugal and Sweden that have paid parental leave and generous childcare subsidies (补助).5．Why did Christoph Becker and his colleagues analyze data from a European survey?A．To show their opinions are different.B．To prove the earlier findings are wrong.C．To prove if parents can be happier under certain conditions.D．To figure out old people's emotional well－being.6．According to the new study, what is the key point of parental happiness?A．Whether the kids have moved out or not.B．Which country they choose to live in.C．Whether kids are to play roles of caregivers.D．Whether parents are willing to wait for kids' growth.7．How can people with kids at home achieve more happiness according to Becker?A．Moving to another country without trouble from kids.B．Asking their kids to move out as soon as possible.C．Living in a country with better policies on childcare.D．Paying for parental leave, generous childcare subsidies.8．What is the main idea of this passage?A．How people can achieve happiness in their life.B．People without children are happier than those with kids.C．Why people have greater life satisfaction in their older age.D．Parents whose children have left home feel happier than non－parents.Ⅱ.完形填空[2022·海南省琼海市嘉积中学高一下检测]Six years ago when I was told that my father suffered from dementia(痴呆), everything changed overnight.

B．In Vienna.C．In Cologne. D．In Bonn.3．Why in the Viennese's eyes，Beethoven was strange?

Unit 2 The United Kingdom Grammar课时作业Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2019·河北省普高质监)Martha Graham，born in 1894，was one of the most famous dancers and creators of dance，whose influence on dance has been compared with the influence Picasso had on the modern visual arts.Stravinsky had on music，or Frank Lloyd Wright had on architecture.She created almost two hundred dance pieces.She is often called the Mother of Modern Dance.Earlier in her life，however，Martha did not know that she would become a dancer.At that time，the dancers were looked down on.So Martha's parents didn't approve of her desire to dance at the beginning.Until 1916，she began her studies at the newly created Denishawn School of Dancing and Related Arts，founded by Ruth St.Denis and Ted Shawn，where Graham worked very hard to improve her ability to dance because she was considered too old to begin dancing.In 1936，Graham made her defining work，“Chronicle”，which signaled the beginning of a new era in modern dance.The dance brought serious issues to the stage for the general public in a dramatic manner.Influenced by the Wall Street Crash of 1929，the Great Depression that followed，and the Spanish Civil War，it focused on depression and isolation，reflected in the dark nature of both the set and costumes.Graham continued to dance past the age of seventy.Once again，she was met with criticism from people who came to watch her shows.But she didn't give up.Her last completed ballet was 1990's Maple Leaf Rag.“A Dancer's World” is an introduction to Graham and her work.She tells about her dances and her dance group shows some of their methods.Martha Graham received many awards during her lifetime，including the Presidential Medal of Freedom in nineteen seventy－six.She was the firstdancer to receive the country's highest civilian honor.She died in 1991 at the age of ninety－six.In 1998，Time magazine listed her as the “Dancer of the Century” and as one of the most important people of the twentieth century.【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。
