人教版高一英语必修四Unit3检测试题及答案(2)第二部分阅读理解(共两节，满分40分)第一节(共15小题，每小题2分，满分30分)AMany years ago my student asked me the question, "Mrs. Kindred, why do you teach?" Without taking time to reflect, I answered, "Because someday I might say something that might make a difference in someone's life." Even though I was sincere, that wasn't a very good answer and my student didn't let it slide."Let me get this straight," he said, "You went to college for four years so you could come here every day because you have the hope that someday you might say something that will influence someone?" He shook his head as if I were crazy and walked away looking confused . I'm one of those people who look back and wish they had said something smart or witty, or swift.Even though that particular student might no longer wonder why I teach, there are days when I wonder. On those days, I remind myself of the real reasons I teach:It's in my blood. My mother was my most influential teacher, and she was a 6th grade reading teacher until her death in 1990. She instilled(逐渐灌输) in me a love of reading and the knowledge that education opens doors.Teaching is a way to make a difference. If you throw a stone in a pond the ripples go on and on until they reach the shore. You can't have ripples without a "stone." Good teachers throw stones that make a positive difference, and that's what I strive to do.I genuinely love teenagers.I want to share with others what I know and what I have learned through the years. Life is full of ups and downs, and if I can help students avoid some potholes on the road of life, I want to do so. If they'll allow me to celebrate their victories with them, I want to do too.Teaching isn't for everyone, but I know I made the right career choice.46. Why did the student continue to ask the question about the writer’s being a teacher?A. Because he thought her answer was unbelievable.B. Because the writer was insincere.C. Because the student was naughty.D. Because the answer was difficult to understand.47. What do you think of the writer?A. Stupid.B. Honest.C. Conservative.D. Polite.48. According to the text, which of the following is NOT true?A. The writer’s mother has the greatest influence on her.B. The writer’s answer made the student confused.C. In the writer’s opinion, some people in the world are unfit to teach.D. The writer annoyed the student who asked the question.49. We can infer from the text that _________.A. the writer was also a good teacher in schoolB. the writer often plays with her students beside a pondC. the writer devotes herself to teaching and her studentsD. the writer often accompanies the students on their way homeBAmong various programs, TV talk shows have covered every inch of space on daytime television. And anyone who watchesthem regularly knows that each one is different in style. But no two shows are more opposite in content, while at the same time standing out above the rest, than the Jerry Springer and Oprah Winfrey shows.Jerry Springer could easily be considered the king of "rubbish talk". The topics on his show are as surprising as can be. For example, the show takes the ever-common talk show titles of love, sex, cheating, and hate, to a different level. Clearly, the Jerry Springer show is about the dark side of society, yet people are willing to eat up the troubles of other people's lives.Like Jerry Springer, Oprah Winfrey takes the TV talk show to its top. But Oprah goes in the opposite direction. The show is mainly about the improvement of society and different quality of life. Contents are from teaching your children lessons, managing your work week, to getting to know your neighbors.Compared to Oprah, the Jerry Springer show looks like poisonous waste being poured into society. Jerry ends every show with a "final word". He makes a small speech about the entire idea of the show. Hopefully, this is the part where most people will learn something very valuable.Clean as it is, the Oprah show is not for everyone. The show's main audiences are middle-class Americans. Most of the people have the time, money and ability to deal with life's tough problems. Jerry Springer, on the other hand, has more of a connection with the young adults of society. These are 18-to 21year-olds whose main troubles in life include love, relationship, sex, money and drug. They are the ones who see some value and lessons to be learned through the show's exploitation.50. Compared with other TV talk shows, both the Jerry Springer and the Oprah Winfrey shows are ______.A. more interestingB. unusually poplarC. more detailedD. more formal51. Though the social problems Jerry Springer talks about appear unpleasant, people who watch the shows ______.A. show disbelief in themB. are ready to face up to themC. remain cold to themD. are willing to get away from them52. Which of the following is likely to be a topic of the Oprah Winfrey show?A. A new type of robot.B. National hatred.C. Family income planning.D. Street accident.53. W e can learn from the passage that the two talk shows ____.A. have become the only ones of its kindB. exploit the weaknesses in human natureC. appear at different times of the dayD. attract different peopleCCan people change their skin colour without suffering like pop king Michael Jackson? Perhaps yes. Scientists have found the gene that determines skin colour.The gene comes in two versions, one of which is found in 99 per cent of Europeans. The other is found in 93 to 100 per cent of Africans, researchers at Pennsylvania State University report in the latest issue of Science. Scientists have changed the colour of a dark-striped zebrafish to uniform gold by inserting a version of the pigment(色素) gene into a young fish. As with humans, zebrafish skin colour is determined by pigment cells, which contain melanosomes(黑色素). The number, size and darkness of melanosomes per pigment cell determines skin colour.It appears that, like the golden zebrafish, light-skinnedEuropeans also have a mutation(变异) in the gene for melanosome production. This results in less pigmented skin.However, Keith Cheng, leader of the research team, points out that the mutation is dif ferent in human and zebrafish genes.Humans acquired dark skin in Africa about 1.5 million years ago to protect bodies from ultra-violet rays of the sun(太阳光紫外线), which can cause skin cancer.But when modern humans leave Africa to live in northern latitudes, they need more sunlight on their skin to produce vit amin D. So the related gene changes, according to Cheng.Asians have the same version of the gene as Africans, so they pr obably acquired their light skin through the action of some other gene that affects skin colour, said Cheng.The new discovery could lead to medical treatments for skin cancer. It also could lead to research into ways to change skin colour without damaging it like chemical treatment did on Michael Jackson.54. The passage mainly tells us that ________.A. people can not change their skin colour without any painB. the new discovery could lead to search into ways to change skin colour safelyC. pop king Michael Jackson often changed his skin colour as he likedD. scientists have found out that people’s skin colour is determined by the gene55. It can be inferred from the passage that ________.A. nowadays people who want to change their skin colour have to suffer a lot from the damage caused by the chemical treatmentB. Europeans and Africans have the same geneC. the new discovery could help to find medical treatments for skin cancerD. there are two kinds of genes56. Scientists have done an experiment on a dark-striped zebra fish in order to ________.A. find the different genes of humans’B. prove the humans’ skin colour is determined by the pigment geneC. find out the rea son why the Africans’ skin colour is darkD. find out the ways of changing peopl’s skin colour57.

It was my mother’s idea. She wanted me to “make something” of myself, and decided I had better start young if I was to have any chance ofkeeping up with the competition.With my load of magazines I headed toward Belleville Avenue. The crowds were there. There were two gas stations on the corner of Belleville and Union. For several hours I made myself highly visible, making sure everyone could see me and the heavy black letters on the bag that said THE SATURDAY EVENING POST. When it was supper time, I walked back home.“How many did you sell, my boy?” my mother asked.“None.”“Where did you go?”“The corner of Belleville and Union Avenues.”“What did you do?”“Stood on the corner waiting for somebody to buy a Saturday Evening Post.”“You just stood there?”“Didn’t sell a single one.”“My God, Russell!”Uncle Allen put in, “Well, I’ve decided to take the Post.” I handed him a copy and he paid me a nickle(五分镍币). It was the first nickle I earned.Afterwards my mother taught me how to be a salesman. I would have to ring doorbells, address adults with self-confidence, and persuade them by saying that no one, no matter how poor, could afford to be without the Saturday Evening Post in the home.One day, I told my mother I’d changed my mind. I didn’t want to make a success in the magazine business.“If you think you can change your mind like this,” she replied, “you’ll become a good-for-noth ing.” She insisted that, as soon as school was over, I should start ringing doorbells, selling magazines. Whenever I said no, she would scold me.My mother and I had fought this battle almost as long as I could remember. My mother, dissatisfied with my fa ther’s plain workman’s life, determined that I would not grow up like him and his people. But never did she expect that, forty years later, such a successful journalist as me would go back to her husband’s people for true life and love.56．Why did the boy start his job young?A．He wanted to be famous in the future B．The job was quite easy for him.C．His mother had high hopes for him. D．The competition for the job was fierce. 57．From the dialogue between the boy and his mother, we learn that the mother was _______.A．excited B．interested C．ashamed D．disappointed 58．What did the mother do when the boy wanted to give up?A．She forced him to continue. B．She punished him.C．She gave him some money. D．She changed her plan.59．The phrase “this battle”in the last paragraph refers to.A．the war between the boy’s parentsB．the arguing between the boy and his motherC．the quarrel between the boy and his customersD．the fight between the boy and his father60．What is the text mainly about?A．The early life of a journalist.B．The early success of a journalist.C．The happy childhood of the writer.D．The important role of the writer in his family.BResearchers have found more evidence that suggests a relationship between races and rates(率) of lung cancer among smokers. A new study shows that black people and Native Hawaiians are more likely to develop lung cancer from smoking. It compared their risk to whites, Japanese-Americans and Latinos.Researchers at the University of Southern California and the University of Hawaii did the new study. The New England Journal of Medicine published the findings. The eight-year research studied more than 180,000 people. They included present and former smokers and people who never smoked. Almost 2.000 people in the study developed lung cancer.Researchers say genetics(遗传学) might help explain the racial and ethnic（种族的）differences. There could be differences in how people's bodies react to smoke. But environmental influences, including the way people smoke, could also make a difference.African-Americans and Latinos in the study are reported smoking the fewest cigarettes per day. Whites are the heaviest smokers. But the scientists point out that blacks have been reported to breathe cigarette smoke more deeply than white smokers. This could fill their lungs with more of the chemicals in tobacco that cause cancer.Scientists know that some diseases effect different groups differently. And some drug companies have begun to develop racially targeted(针对) medicines. Last June, the United States Food and Drug Administration approved a drug designed to treat heart failure in black patients. The name is BiDil. The agency called it "a step toward the promise of personalized medicine." 61．Which of the following orders is from higher to lower risk of having lung cancer?A．Whites—Native Hawaiians B．Africans—Americans—LatinosC．Asians—Native Hawaiians D．Africans—Americans—Native Hawaiians 62．Researchers agree that it is that may probably determine black people’s risk of lung cancer.A．the larger amount of smoking than white peopleB．the living style or habit of the blacksC．the depth of cigarette smoke into their lungsD．the physical strength to react to cigarette smoke63．People in the new study are made up of .A．heavy smokers in America B．the black and white peopleC．the Asians and Hawaiians D．smokers and non-smokers64．The production of BiDil referred to in the last paragraph is to .A．explain different races react to some diseases differentlyB．tell the readers that racial differences exist in smokersC．show a big step people have taken in the medicine areaD．support the idea that it is easy for blacks to have cancers65．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the author?A．The way of smoking may increase the risk of lung cancer.B．Race has nothing to do with the risk of having a lung cancer.C．The research was started by the New England Journal of Medicine.D．The risk of lung cancer lies I how much a person smokes.C"The world's oceans are slowly getting more acidic．”say scientists．The researchers from California report that the change is taking place in response to higher levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.The lowering of the waters’pH value is not great at the moment but could cause a serious threat to current ocean life if it continues, they warn. Ken Caldeira and Michael Wickett, from the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, report their concerns in the journal Nature.Increasing use of oil fuels means more carbon dioxide is going into the air, and most of it will eventually be absorbed by seawater. Once in the water, it reacts to form carbonic acid. Scientists believe that the oceans have already become slightly more acidic over the last century.These researchers have tried to predict what will happen in the future by combining what we know about the history of the oceans with computer models of climate change．"This level of acidity will get much more extreme in the future if we continue releasing COZ into the atmosphere," said Dr Caldeira. "And we predict the amount of future acidity will exceed（超过）anything we have seen over the last several hundred million years, let alone perhaps after rare disastrous events such as asteroid（小1j-%+.'_) impacts．”However, it is not absolutely clear what that means for ocean life．Most organisms live near the surface, where the greatest pH change would be expected to occur, but deep-ocean life forms may be more sensitive to pH changes．Coral reefs and other organisms whose shells contain calcium carbonate（小行星) may be particularly affected if the water's acidity levels keep going up, the team predict. They could find it much more difficult to build these structures in water with a lower pH.In recent years some people have suggested storing carbon dioxide from power stations in the deep ocean as a way of dealing with global warming．But Dr Caldeira said that such a strategy should now be re-considered. "Previously, most experts had looked at ocean absorption of carbon dioxide as a good thing一because in releasing CO2 into the atmosphere we warm the planet, and when CO2, is absorbed by the ocean, it reduces the amount of greenhouse warming.”66 ．The ocean is becoming more acidic due to＿．A，the lower water pH value B．the warming atmosphereC ．the higher level of COZ in the air D．the increasing use of oil fuels 67．According to Dr Caldeira,＿．A ．ocean absorption of carbon dioxide is a good thingB ．more oil fuels will be used in the near futureC ．scientists may predict climate changes with computer modelsD ．the future situation of the amount of acidity is extremely serious68．If the water's acidity level keeps rising,＿．A ．ocean life whose structures contain calcium carbonate may be affectedB ．the waters’pH value will become higher and higherC ．organisms living near the surface are more sensitive to pH changesD ．some disastrous events will occur more often than before69．Most experts once believed storing carbon dioxide in the ocean would reduce＿．A ．the COZ absorbed by the oceanB ．the amount of greenhouse warmingC ．the acidity of the oceanD ．the gradul release Of CO270．The purpose of this passage is to＿．A ．show people the findings of a research teamB ．inform people of how acid the ocean is nowC ．introduce Dr Caldeira and his team's researchD ．warn people of the higher level of COZDAs you move around your home, take a good look at the things you have. It is likely that your living room will have a television set and a video, and your kitchen a washing machine and a microwave oven. Your bedroom drawers will be filled with almost three times as many clothes as you need. You almost certainly own a car and possibly a home computer, holiday abroad at least once a year and eat out at least once a week.Now, perhaps, more than ever before, people are wondering what life is all about, and what it is for. Seeking material success is beginning to trouble large numbers of people around the world. They feel that the long hours work culture to make more money is eating up their lives, leaving them very little time or energy for family or pastimes. Many are turning to other ways of living and downshifting is one of them. Six percent of workers in Britain took the decision to downshift last year.One couple who downshifted is Daniel and Liz. They used to work in central London. He was a newspaper reporter and she used to work for an international bank. They would go to work by train every day from their large house in the suburbs, leaving their two children with a nanny. Most evenings Daniel wouldn’t get home until eight or nine o’clock and nearly twice a month he would have to fly to New York for meetings. They both earned a large amount of money but began to feel that life was passing them by.Nowadays, they run a farm in the mountains of Wales. “I always wanted to have a farm then,” says Daniel, “and we took almost a year to make the decision to downshift. It’s taken some get ting used to, but it’s been worth it. We have to think twice now about spending money on car repairs and we no longer have any holidays. However, I think it’s made us stronger as a family, and the children are a lot happier.Liz, however, is not quite su re. “I used to enjoy my job, even though it was hard work and long hours. I’m not really a country girl, but I suppose I’m gradually getting used to looking after the animals. One thing I do like, though, is being able to see more of my children. My advice for other people wanting to do the same is not to think about it too much or you might not do it at all.”71．The passage tells us that .A．people seldom work long hours to make moneyB．people hardly buy more things than necessaryC．people are sure everything they own is in the right placeD．people realize there is more to life than just making money72．When Daniel was a reporter he ___.A．lived in central London B．disliked his jobC．missed his children D．was well paid73．Daniel and Liz both agree that the move to the farm ____.A．was easy to organize B．has improved family lifeC．was extremely expensive D．has been a total success74．What does the author mean by saying“the long hours work culture to make more money is eatingup thei r lives” in the second paragraph ?A．People work long hours to earn their living.B．To make more money through hard work is the aim of people’s life.C．Long hours of hard work occupy too much of people’s life.D．People spent too much time and money eating meals.75．The underlined word “downshifting” in the second paragraph refers to _________.A．repairing your car by yourselfB．spending money carefullyC．moving out to the countryside to live a simpler and better lifeD．living in a big house in the suburbs and dining out once a week第Ⅱ卷（共45分）第四部分书面表达（共两节，满分45分）第一节阅读表达（共5小题；每小题3分，满分15分）阅读下面的短文，并根据短文后的要求答题（请注意问题后的字数要求）。

单元综合测评(三)Ⅰ.阅读理解(共10小题；每小题2.5分，满分25分)AThree pretty ladies were being trained to become detectives by a policeman. To test their skills in recognizing a suspect (嫌疑犯), the policeman showed the first lady a picture for five seconds and then asked how she could recognize him.She thought it easy，for the suspect had only one eye.The policeman felt disappointed at this funny answer.He showed the second lady the picture for five seconds and asked her how she would recognize him.The second lady giggled，flipped her hair，and said，“Ha! It's easy to find the one-eared person！”Her answer also made the policeman angry.Turning to the third lady，he asked，“This is your suspect，and how would you recognize him？”He added quickly，“Think hard before giving a stupid answer.”The third lady looked at the picture carefully for a moment and said，“Hmm...the suspect is wearing contact lenses (隐形眼镜)．”The policeman was surprised and speechless，because he really didn't know himself if the suspect wore contacts or not.“Well，that is a good answer.Wait here for a few minutes while I check his file.”He left the room and went to his office，checked the suspect's file in his computer and returned with a beaming smile.“Wow! I can't believe it...It's TRUE! The suspect does in fact wear contact lenses.Good work! How were you able to make such a wise observation？”“That's easy，”the blonde replied，“He can't wear glasses because he only has one eye and one ear！”【语篇解读】本文叙述了警察在培训三个女士做侦探的过程中进行的一次测验。

A★★☆☆☆In 2012,1 had just recovered from a serious illness when I received an invitation to a writer's conference in Orlando, Florida. My family and friends persuaded me that a holiday might be just what the doctor ordered, so off I went.Arriving in the Sunshine State was not easy, but I managed to catch a taxi to the hotel. The next morning, I caught another taxi to do some shopping. Later I went to a cafe to buy some lun ch, but havi ng my san dwich and drink in my han ds, I saw that all the tables were occupied （占用）.Then I heard a friendly voice saying, "You can share my table.〃I thankfully sat down with the smiling elderly lady and we shared a happy lunch together. As the meal drew to a close she asked how long I would be in Orlando. I had already told her that I had n't hired （租用）a car, and had n't realised how costly taking taxis would be. After a while she said, "My dear, don't use any more taxis. It would be my pleasure to drive you wherever you wish•“I told her that I couldn"t put her to that trouble, but she insisted. She took details ofwhere I was staying and the next morning she drove me to Disney World. She took me through the park's gates and spent some time with me before leaving me to explore alone. At the end of the day, she returned to take me back to my hotel. The next few days, she drove me around Orlando's tourist areas. I offered her money but she refused to take any.When we had lunch on my last day, I thanked her for her kindness. I'll never forget that wonderful lady who filled my holiday in Florida with wonderful memories.21.The author went to Orlando to _______ •A.see a doctorB.attend a meetingC.meet a friendD.visit a family member22.What did the elderly lady do?A.She offered her seat to the author.B.She helped the author hire a car.C.She drove the author to a park.D.She bought the author a lunch.23.We can infer from the text that the elderly lady is _________ •A.hard-workingB. good-lookingC. well-known D・ kind-hearted24.What's the best title for the text?A.My holiday heroB.Making a big differenceC.My trip to Disney WorldD.Difficulty in a foreign landB★★★☆☆What you communicate through your body language and nonverbal signals affects how others see you, how well they like and respect you, and whether or not they trust you. Unf ort un ately, many people send confusing non verbal signals without even knowing it.Jack, Ted and Arlene are all speakers who have got disastrous results while communicating with others.Jack believes he gets along great with others, but if you were to ask any of them, they would say that Jack makes them feel afraid. Rather than just look at you, he seems to eat you with his eyes. And he often shakes your hand so hard that it hurts. Jack is a caring guy who secretly wishes he had more friends, but hisnon verbal awkwardness （笨扌!11） keeps people at a dista nee.Ted is good-looking, hard-working, and a smooth talker, but he seems to care more about his thoughts than others. Whe n some one has somethi ng to say, Ted's wild eyes make him look like he wants to speak before they have finished. His in ability to liste n to others makes him un popular with many people.Arlene is funny and attractive, but even though she keeps laughing and smiling, she looks nervous. Her shoulders and eyebrows （眉毛）are noticeably raised, her voice is high, and her body is stiff. Being around Arlene makes many people feel un comfortable ・These smart, well-intentioned people try their best to connect with others. The sad thing is that they have no idea of the nonverbal messages they communicate. If you want to communicate effectively, avoid misunderstandings, and enjoy trusting relationships, its important to understand how to use body Ianguage.25.What's the problem with Jack?A.He can't keep a secret・B.He behaves improperly.C.He hates making friends.D.He means to frighten others.26.What do people think about Ted?A.He is caring.B.He is interesting.C.He is not a good listener.D.He is not a smooth talker.27.How is the text mainly developed?A.By using examples.B.By giving instructions.C.By presenting findings.D.By providing explanations.28.What's the main idea of the text?A.How to read body Ianguage.B.How to improve body Ianguage.C.Types of non verbal communication.D.Non verbal communication in relationships.Only Fools and Horseshe series mixes satire （讽朿此drama and great jokes to produce something that is both laugh-out-loud funny and packed with pity.A hit across the world, from Montenegro to Belgium, Only Fools and Horses can truly be said to be one of the television greats, as it continues to be repeated, loved, and picked up by new audiences almost 30 years since it first appeared on television scree ns.Open All HoursWith comedy giants Ronnie Baker and DavidJas on both on scree n together it isn't a surprise thatthis is a much loved comedy.Granville's half-hearted attempts to find excitementin his boring life and Arkwrights penny・pinching （吝啬白勺），shop-proud ways will make you laugh aloud・There are so many moments that people remember — be it Arkwrights stutter（U 吃）and Granville's adventurous deliveries. It was these moments and many more that will help ensure that Open All Hours will be repeated and loved by audiences for many more years to come.Fawlty Towers comedy of all time, the importance and popularity of Fawlty Towers is difficult to exaggerate （夸大）.The series was set with un reas on able but believable characters and won derful performances. Add in excellent short jokes and exciting dialogue, and you get this most popular and well-loved series.Blackadderseries of Blackadder remain highlyregarded and extremely popular almost 30 yearsafter they began.The only real exception to this is the firstseries, which is considered by many as beingunfunny. However, its completely different fromthe other series ofBlackadder. The humour is darker and less silly.However, because it combines historical research with jokes, satire and some of the cleverest and funniest replies that have ever appeared on British television,Blackadder is hard not to be loved by many people.29.If you're a fan of Ronnie Baker, you may choose ________A.BlackadderB.Fawlty TowersC.Open All HoursD.Only Fools and Horses30.Both Only Fools and Horses and Fawlty Towers ________A.mix short jokes with satireB.are popular among audiencesC.explore the pitiful side of humansD.have been put on across the world31.What can you expect from the Blackadder series?A.Dark humour.B.Un reas on able characters.C.Adventurous stories.D.Historical facts.My pare nts both love to liste n to their car radios. They also love their on going argument about which is better ——satellite radio or local, publicly supported stations. I get a lot of pleasure from hearing them try to persuade each other of their friendly arguments. They each try to persuade me, too. Both cars have nice sou nd systems, so they all sound great to me. I refuse to take sides.When I ride with my mother, she listens to radio programs on one of the two local public stations that serve our area. One is a classical music station broadcast by a university. I have to admit, the music usually sounds great, and they also cover college sports and other local events. The other station is an all-volunteer station that plays different kinds of music and news programs. Both stations are mostly listener・supported, which gives them a nice community （社区）feel. It also gives the programmers freedom to play what they want to hear. Mom loves very much the idea of having members of the community give small amounts of money toward something we can all enjoy.When Km in the car with my dad, he listens to satellite radio. He pays a small amount of money for the satellite radio, and he thinks it is a great bargain. He says he loves having so many stations to choose from, including all kinds of music and news choices.Mom's public radio is certainly simpler and much closer to home, but I also enjoy what Dad plays on his car radio. Each has its own merits. I like things just the way they are. I feel like I have the best of both radio worlds.32.What can we learn about the author's mother?A.She loves satellite radio very much.B.She has a strong sense of community.C.She likes listening to the radio at home・D.She works as a volunteer at a radio station.pared with local public radio, satellite radio _________.A.offers more music programsB.is mainly listener-supportedC.has more station choicesD.is free of charge34.The underlined word "merits" in the last paragraph can best be replaced by//A. advantages B・ problems C. chances D・ mistakes35.Which of the following shows the structure of the whole text?(P: Paragraph)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。

Though it was in broad daylight, I was shy about it and kept some distance when I walked over. She said she couldn't walk and requested me to purchase a Kinect, a popular game, for her as her son's Christmas gift. Because of her leg disease it was painful to her to move around. She called ahead but the employee wasn't willing to help. She gave me about ＄100 in cash and her credit card.I walked back in and bought the Kinect.Then it occurred to me that this woman,a complete stranger, trusted me.What was it that stopped me from lying about the payment method and just pocket her cash? She couldn't know I wasn't a cheat；and how could she possibly believe in someone so much?I handed her the cash back,explaining I had to pay with her card ﹣it was above ＄100 at the time, and handed over the game and her credit card. "This is what my son's been longing for. Thank you! By the way, just from glancing at you, I know you are the one who will be a friend to someone in need. You have a face of anangel!" she said. She gave me ＄10 and refused to take it back.Then she drove away,saying "Merry Christmas!"She had no idea how much of a difference even ＄10 made.I was able to buy a few cheap groceries for the week and it really made a hard time in my life a little better.

Under the ban students are not able to use their phones at all during school hours, including meal breaks."I think it's a good thing. School is not about being on your phone," Paris mum Marie﹣Caroline Madeleine told AFP. "It's hard with kids. You can't control what they see and that's one of the things that worries me as aparent."There is no law like this in Australia, but some Australian schools have banned phones.McKinnon Secondary School in Victoria introduced a total ban in February and Principal Pitsa Binnion said this has been a success.McKinnon students still have a Chromebook to use in every class for day﹣to﹣day learning but they're not allowed to use social media （媒体）. Ms Binnion said at first "teachers cheered and students moaned （抱怨）," but now they're seeing the positives （优势）. "They come to school and they're not allowed to use phones at all during the school day, including lunch breaks," she said."It's been wonderful in terms of students communicating with each other at lunchtime and not looking at their screen," she said.Ms Binnion also leads by example and doesn't use her mobile phone in school. "I think anyone can do it if we've done it."Not everyone agrees with the bans. Western Sydney University technology researcher Dr Joanne Orlando wrote in online magazine The Conversation earlier this year that Australia should not ban phones in schools because it's important to educate kids to live in the age they are raised in."A good education for students today is knowing how to use technology to learn, communicate and work with ideas," she wrote. "Banning students from using smartphones is a 1950s response to a 2018 state﹣of﹣play."12.Why did Madeleine welcome the ban?A.School is for studying.B.Kids behave badly nowadays.C.Teachers find it hard to control kids.D.Her kids depend too much on phones.【答案】A【解析】推理判断题.根据第二段句子可知我觉得这是件好事.学校不是你电话的地方,可见学校是为了学习的地方,所以选A.13.What can we learn about the ban in McKinnon Secondary School?A.Some teachers were against it at first.B.Students can now see the good of the ban.C.Students can use their phones at lunch breaks.D.Teachers have stopped using phones at school as well.【答案】B【解析】推理判断题.根据第五段句子可知但现在他们看到了积极的一面.可见这里的学生们现在可以看到禁令的好处了,所以选B.14.What does the underlined word "Chromebook" in Paragraph 5 probably refer to?A.A book.B.A notebook.C.A learning website.D.A kind of computer.【答案】D【解析】猜测词义题.根据后文句子可知允许学生们用这个东西,但是他们不允许使用社交媒体.可见这是一种不能联网的计算机,所以选D.15.What does Dr Joanne Orlando think of banning phones in schools?A.It will disconnect parents and kids.B.It will cause kids to communicate less.C.It will prevent kids being tech﹣minded.D.It will make education go back 60 years.【答案】C【解析】推理判断题.根据倒数第二段句子可知博士在今年早些时候的在线杂志《对话》中写道,澳大利亚不应该禁止在学校使用手机,因为教育孩子们生活在他们成长的年龄是很重要的.可见他认为禁止孩子用手机可以阻止孩子们的科技意识.所以选C.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分,共10分）根据短文内容,从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

As a matter of fact, senior citizens have taken advantage of the Internet to enrich their life and have benefited greatly from it including looking through news, using mobile payments, and even enjoying online car-hailing (约车）services.Most of the information read by older netizens is focused on national politics and economy. They also like reading encouraging materials and jokes online. Anyway, what brings them the greatest convenience is that they turn to the web for health advice, especially online hospital appointments. Increasingly, old people’s needs can be satisfied by online services，which are more convenient than those in traditional ways.On the other hand, the Internet is not always safe. There exists the risk of being cheated. Some older users easily misunderstand or are cheated by incorrect information on the Internet. Of those cheated online, 60. 3 percent fall for offers to collect free “red packet”money. And some health-related information they read is misleading. So they should be careful to make out the information. It is the responsibility for the government，families and companies to help the old netizens to be away from the danger online. This way, they will be more willing to use the Internet and the experience on the Internet will be more satisfying.【1】What does the first paragraph tell us?A. The Internet is only preferred by young people.B. Online news readers are mainly senior citizens.C. Old people make better use of the Internet than the young.D. Using mobile phones has become common in old people’s life.【2】Which do old people find the most helpfulonline?A. Positive materialsB. Health advice.C. Mobile payments.D. Traffic service【3】What can protect the old people from being cheated online?A. Warning them not to open red packets.B. Telling them not to read too much information.C. Reminding them to be careful about the risks online.D. Advising them to keep away from the smartphonesB(2018浙江宁波诺丁汉大学附属中学高一第二学期期中）Whether in the home or the workplace, social robots are going to become a lot more common in the next few years. Social robots are about to bring technology to the everyday world in a more humanized way, said Cynthia Breazeal，chief scientist at the robot company Jibo.While household robots today do the normal housework，social robots will be much more like companions who you spend time with than just tools. For example, these robots will be able to tell when someone is happy or sad. This allows them to respond more properly to the user.The Jibo robot, arranged to ship later this year, is designed to be a personalized assistant to help. You can talk to the robot, ask it questions, and make requests for it to perform different tasks. The robot doesn’t just deliver general answers to questi ons ；it responds based on what it learns about each individual in the household. It can do things such as reminding an elderly family member to take medicine or taking family photos.Social robots are not just finding their way into the home. They have potential applications in everything from education to health care and are already finding their way into some of these spaces.Fellow Robots is one company bringing social robots to the market. The company’s “Oshbot” robot is built to assist customers in a store, which can help the customers find items and help guide them to the product’s location in the store. It canalso speak different languages and make recommendations for different items based on what the customer is shopping for.The more interaction the robot has with humans, the more it leams. But Oshbot, like other social robots, is not intended to replace workers, but to work alongside other employees. “We have technologies to train social robots to do things not for us，but with us，”said Breazeal.【4】How are social robots different from household robots?A. They can control their emotions.B. They are more like humans.C. They do the normal housework.D. They respond to users more slowly.【5】What can a Jibo robot do according to Paragraph 3?A. Communicate with you and do operations for you.B. Answer your personal questions and make no requests.C. Take pictures and deliver milk.D. Obey your orders and remind an elderly family member to take pills.【6】We can learn from the last paragraph that social robots will_A. train employeesB. be our workmatesC. improve technologiesD. take the place of workers【7】What does the passage mainly present?A. A new design idea of household robots.B. Marketing plans for social robots.C. Information on household robots.D. An introduction to social robots.C(2018江西南康中学高一第二学期第二次大考）Going green seems to be a fad (时尚）for a lot of people these days. Whether thatis good or bad，we can’t really say，but for some of us，going green is not a fad but a lifestyle.On April 22，2011，we decided to go green every single day for an entire year. This meant doing 365 different green things, and it also meant challenging ourselves to go green beyond easy things. Rather than recycle and reduce our energy，we had to think of 365 different green things to do and this was no easy task.With the idea of going green every single day for a year，Our Green Year started. My wife and I decided to educate people about how they could go green in their lives and hoped we could show people all the green things that could be done to help the environment. We wanted to push the message that every little bit helps.Over the course of Our Green Year, we completely changed our lifestyle. We now shop at organic (有机的) stores. We consume less meat, choosing green food. We have greatly reduced our buying we don’t need. We have given away half of what we owned through websites. Our home is kept clean by vinegar and lemon juice, with no chemical cleaners. We make our own butter, enjoying the smell of home-made fresh bread. In our home anyone caught doing something ungreen might be punished.Our minds have been changed by Our Green Year. We are grateful for the chance to have been able to go green and educate others. We believe that we do have the power to change things and help our planet.【8】What might be the best title for the passage?A. Going Green.B. Protecting the Planet.C. Keeping Open-Minded.D. Celebrating Our Green Year.【9】It was difficult for the couple to live a green life for the whole year because_.A. they were expected to follow the green fadB. they didn’t know how to educate other peopleC. they were unwilling to reduce their energyD. they needed to perform unusual green tasks【10】What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. The government will give support to the green people.B. The couple may continue their project in the future.C. Some p eople disagree with the couple’s green ideas.D. Our Green Year is becoming a national campaign.第二节根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填人空白处的最佳选项。

Module3 单元能力测评第一部分阅读理解第一节阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

AIdeas about polite behavior are different from one culture to another. Some societies, such as America and Australia, for example, are mobile and very open. People here change jobs and move house quite often. As a result, they have a lot of relationships that often last only a short time，and they need to get to know people quickly. So it，s normal to have friendly conversations with people that they have just met, and you can talk about things that other cultures would regard as personal.On the other hand, there are more crowded and less mobile societies wherelong-term relationships are more important. A Malaysian or Mexican business person will want to get to know you very well before he or she feels happy to start business. But when you do get to know each other, the relationship becomes much deeper than it would in a mobile society.To Americans, both Europeans and Asians seem cool and formal at first. On the other hand，as a passenger from a less mobile society puts it, it，s no fun spending several hours next to a stranger who wants to tell you all about his or her life and asks you all sorts of questions that you don’t want to answer.Cross-cultural differences aren’t just a problem for travelers，but also for the flights that carry them. All flights want to provide the best service, but ideas about good service are different from place to place. This can be seen most clearly in the way that problems are dealt with.Some societies have “ universalist ” cultures. These societies strongly respect rules, and they treat every person and situation in basically the same way.“Particularist”societies, on the other hand, also have rules，but they are less important than the society’s unwritten ideas about what is right or wrong for a particular situation or a particular person. So the normal rules are changed to fit the needs of the situation or the importance of the person.This difference can cause problems. A traveler from a particularist society, India, is checking in for a flight in Germany, a country which has a universalist culture. The Indian traveler has too much luggage, but he explains that he has been away from home for a long time and the suitcases are full of presents for his family. He expects that the check-in official will understand his problem and will change the rules for him. The check-in official explains that if he was allowed to have too much luggage，it wouldn’t be fair to the other passengers. But the traveler thinks this is unfair, because the other passengers don’t have his problem.【1】Often moving from one place to another makes people like Americans and Australians .A. like traveling betterB. easy to communicate withC. difficult to make real friendsD. have a long-term relationship with their neighbors【2】People like Malaysians prefer to associate with those .A. who will tell them everything of their ownB. who want to do business with themC. they know quite wellD. who are good at talking【3】A person from a less mobile society will feel it when a stranger keeps talking to him or her，and asking him or her questions.A. boringB. friendlyC. normalD. cruel【4】The writer of the passage thinks that the Indian and the German have different ideas about rules because of differentA. habits and customsB. interestsC. culturesD. ways of lifeBThe baby is just one day old and has not yet left hospital. She is quiet but alert (警觉的）. Twenty centimeters from her face researchers have placed a white card with two black spots on it. She stares at it carefully. A researcher removes the card and replaces it by another, this time with the spots differently spaced. As the cards change from one to the other，her gaze (凝视）starts to lose its focus—until a third, with three black spots，is presented. Her gaze returns ：she looks at it for twice as long as she did at the previous card. Can she tell that the number two is different from three, just 24 hours after coming into the world?Or do newborns simply prefer more to fewer? The same experiment, but with three spots shown before two, shows the same return of interest when the number of spots changes. Perhaps it is just the newness? When slightly older babies were shown cards with pictures of objects ( a comb，a key，an orange and so on) , changing the number of objects had an effect separate from changing the objects themselves. Could it be the pattern that two things make, as opposed to three? No again. Babies paid more attention to squares moving randomly (随意地)on a screen when their number changed from two to three, or three to two. The effect even crosses between senses. Babies who were repeatedly shown two spots became more excited when they then heard three drumbeats than when they heard just two；likewise (同样地）when the researchers started with drumbeats and moved to spots.【5】The experiment described in Paragraph 1 is related to the baby’s .A. sense of hearingB. sense of sightC. sense of touchD. sense of smell【6】Babies are sensitive to the change in .A. the size of cardsB. the colour of picturesC. the shape of paternsD. the number of objects【7】Why did the researchers test the babies with drumbeats?A. To reduce the difficulty of the experiment.B. To see how babies recognize sounds.C. To carry their experiment further.D. To keep the babies，interest.CLiving in a culture that is different from your own can be both an exciting and challenging experience. The following are 6 cultural differences between China and the USA to help promote mutual understanding.MoneyAs is well known, the Chinese are conservative when they are planning to spend money, but far fewer American families are saving money for emergencies and education than their Chinese counterparts (对等的人）PrivacyChinese people do not have the same concept of privacy as Americans do. They talk about topic such as ages，income or marital (婚姻的)status，which Americans think is annoying and disturbing.FamilyIn China，elders are traditionally treated with great respect while young are cared for. In America，the goal of the family is to encourage independence，particularly that of the children. Unlike the Chinese, older Americans seldom live with their children.FriendsChinese people have different meanings to define friends. Just hanging out together time to time is not friendship. Friendship means lifelong relationship between friends who feel it necessary to give each other whatever help might seem required. Americans always call people they meet friends，so the definition of friends is general and different. There are work friends, playing friends, school friends and drinking friends.EducationChinese people value education and career more than Americans, who in turn attach more great importance to good character and faith.Basically China values the community and the USA values the individual. If you achieve something in the USA, it’s because you are great. While in China, if you achieve something，it’s because the team，or family，or company is great. Everything you do isn’t owed to the greater whole, while in American individual achievements are celebrated.【8】What can be inferred from the passage?A. Americans lay more stress on faith and good personalityB. Americans think much of the individual and the communityC. Americans are mean with money to spend while Chinese are not.D. Americans define friendship almost the same with Chinese.【9】Which of the following can best describe the last difference?A. Achievements.B. Individuals.C. Teams vs Individuals.D. Teamwork.【10】What is the purpose of writing the passage?A. To promote friendship between China and the USA.B. To help Chinese live well in the USA.C. To have a complete understanding of the USA.D. To introduce the cultural differences between China and the USA.第二节根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
