Distances between them appear no greater to a modern traveler than those which once faced men as they walked from village to village. Jet planes fly people from one end of the earth to the other, allowing them a freedom of movement undreamt of a hundred years ago.Yet some people wonder if the revolution in travel has gone too far. A price has been paid, they say, for the conquest (征服) of time and distance. Travel_is_something_to_be_enjoyed,_not_endured (忍受). The boat offers leisure and time enough to appreciate the ever-changing sights and sounds of a journey. A journey by train also has a special charm about it. Lakes and forests and wild, open plains sweeping past your carriage window create a grand view in which time and distance mean nothing. On board a plane, however, there is just the blank blue of the sky filling the narrow windows of the airplane. The soft lighting, in-flight films and gentle music make up the only world you know, and the hours progress slowly.Then there is the time spent being ‘processed’at a modern airport. People are conveyed like robots along walkways; baggage is weighed, tickets produced, examined and produced yet again before the passengers move to another waiting area. Journeys by rail and sea take longer, yes, but the hours devoted to being ‘processed’ at departure and arrival in airports are luckily absent.No wonder, then, that the modern high-speed trains are winning back passengers from the airlines.Man, however, is now a world traveler and cannot turn his back on the airplane. The working lives of too many people depend upon it; whole new industries have been built around its design and operation. The holiday­maker, too, with limited time to spend, patiently endures the busy airports and the limited space of the flight to gain those extra hours and even days, relaxing in the sun. Speed controls people's lives; time saved, in work or play, is the important thing—or so we are told. Perhaps those first horsemen, riding free across the wild, open plains, were enjoying a better world than the one we know today. They could travel at will, and the clock was not their master.16. What does the writer try to express in Paragraph 1?A. Travel by plane has speeded up the growth of villages.B. The speed of modern travel has made distances relatively short.C. The freedom of movement has helped people realize their dreams.D. Man has been fond of traveling rather than staying in one place.17. How does the writer support the underlined statement in Paragraph 2?A. By giving instructions.B. By analyzing cause and effect.C. By following the order of time.D. By giving examples.18. According to Paragraph 3, passengers are turning back to modern high-speed trains because________．A. they pay less for the ticketsB. they feel safer during the travelC. they can enjoy higher speed of travelD. they don't have to waste time being ‘processed’19. What does the last sentence of the passage mean?A. They could enjoy free and relaxing travel.B. They needed the clock to tell the time.C. They preferred traveling on horseback.D. They could travel with their master.20. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Air travel benefits people and industries.B. Train travel has some advantages over air travel.C. Great changes have taken place in modern travel.D. The high speed of air travel is gained at a cost.BYou're lost in the world of dreams and sleep. You roll over, smiling as you come across a swimming pool filled with chocolate. And then, your wonderful dream becomes a nightmare(噩梦) when someone is screaming, “Get up！”It's just what every teenager goes through each morning!Now, there seems to be one school that finally understands that requiring teens to show up at 9 am is not just cruel but also harmful to both the kids and the school.Monkseaton High School in North Tyneside, Britain, recently decided to experiment to see if there is any difference in student behavior if they just pushed back the start of their day by one hour, from 9 am to 10 am. And the results are surprising.Since carrying out the later start, Monkseaton has seen a 28% drop in truancy,_even hardly any lateness, and best of all, higher test scores. One of the reasons is that the teenagers are much happier to have the extra hour of sleep, but there is also a scientific reason behind why they need the extra sleep.The school's decision to push back the time was based on the research done by Oxford Professor Russell Foster, who pointed out that teenagers and adults have different sleep cycles，explaining why teenagers go to bed late and wake up late.While adults are wide awake and ready at 8 am, teenagers are not fully awake until 10 am, sometimes even noon. Teachers may argue that their students perform better in the morning, but in fact, it is because they are in the zone while their students are still sleepy, making the students easier to control.Memory tests prove that the more difficult classes should be in the afternoon when teenagers are most wide awake.The Monkseaton school officials are encouraged by the results and plan on voting to make it a permanent change.21．What's the meaning of the underlined word “truancy”？A．Grades. B．Classes.C．Absence. D．Practice.22．What can we learn from the passage?A．Teenagers and adults have the same sleep cycle.B．Teenagers are fully awake at 10 am as a whole.C．Teenagers are much happier to sleep than study.D．Teenagers need the extra sleep also for a scientific reason.23．Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?A．Monkseaton High School is satisfied with the result of the experiment.B．It is very cruel for the teenagers to show up in class at 9 am every day.C．Monkseaton High School plans to change the school time forever.D．In fact, teenagers perform better in the morning than in the afternoon.24．What's the best title for this passage?A．Get up early, teenagers!B．Finally, a school understands teenagersC．Why do teenagers stay up late?D．Differences between teens and adults课时作业(二十七)Ⅰ.1.A考查名词辨析。

Obese people are extremely overweight, and those extra pounds are tied to an increase in a person's risk for many different diseases and serious medical conditions, including diabetes, heart disease and cancer.The research reveals “the influence of environmental factors on people's health, in particular obesity，” Laura Kettel Khan, a nutritionist at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta, told Science Ne w s.Lawrence Frank, an urban planner and public health researcher at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, led one of the studies. Urban planners study the design of cities and work to build better places to live in. He and his colleagues looked at hundreds of neighborhoods in California's San Diego County and in Washington's King County, which includes Seattle.They judged all the neighborhoods according to their nutrition and physical activity. The neighborhoods that scored highest on nutrition had a supermarket nearby that sold fresh produce and few fast food restaurants in the area. Neighborhoods that scored highest on physical activity had parks and were “walkable”，which means residents can walk to many places they'd want to go to.The researchers then looked at health information from 681 children, ages 6 to 11, who lived in those areas. About 1 in 12 children who lived in neighborhoods near parks or supermarkets were obese. In neighborhoods lacking parks and markets, the obesity rate among children doubled, to about 1 in 6.The work “will inform the way we think about cities and how to design neighborhoods，”Jennifer Black told Science Ne w s. Black, who didn't work on the new studies, is a nutritionist at the University of British Columbia. “We have a pretty strong sense that if it's easier for people to safely and comfortably walk to the kinds of things they want, they'll be more likely to be physically active and spend less time driving，” she adds.The researchers also found that newer neighborhoods scored lower than older neighborhoods, which suggests that some new housing developments may work against the health of the people who live there.Many communities no longer provide parks and markets within walking distance, Frank told Science Ne w s. “If we want to reverse the obesity epidemic(流行病), we need to reverse the way we're building our communities.”16．The best title for the passage is “________”．A．Obesity related to eatingB．Obesity tied to many diseasesC．Obesity linked to locationD．Obesity linked to city planning17．What did the researchers do for the study?A．They surveyed thousands of neighborhoods in California and in Washington.B．They graded each neighborhood based on nutrition and physical activity.C．They interviewed nearly seven hundred children of the neighborhoods.D．They looked at health information of each neighborhood from its young residents.18．What did Lawrence Frank and his colleagues find in their research?A．Kids living near parks or markets are less likely to be extremely overweight.B．There are parks near the neighborhoods that score highest on physical activity.C．Living in neighborhoods near parks or supermarkets can keep obesity in control.D．More new neighborhoods are built with human health taken into consideration.19．It is inferred from the saying of Jennifer Black that ________．A．driving is bad for healthB．eating right is good for healthC．living actively determines healthD．getting exercise is good for health20．According to the passage, what does Lawrence Frank think of today's urban planning?A．It is amazing.B．It is satisfying.C．It is worrying.D．It is positive.BToday we will explain a very old saying that has had a big influence on rock­and­roll music. That saying is “A rolling stone gathers no moss”．It has several meanings. One meaning is that a person who never settles down in one place will not be successful. Another is that someone who is always moving, with no roots in one place, avoids responsibilities.This proverb was said to be first used in the 1500s. But in the 1960s, the expression “rolling stone” became famous in the world of rock-and-roll music. It became the name of a song, a rock group and a magazine.Experts say it all started with a song by the American singer and guitarist Muddy Waters. He was one of the country's top blues musicians until his death in 1983. His music influenced singers like Elvis Presley and Bob Dylan. In 1950, Muddy Waters recorded a song called “Roll ing Stone”．A British rock group is said to have taken its name from Muddy Waters' song. The Rolling Stones performed for the first time in 1962.The group's members called themselves “the world's greatest rock-and-roll band”．In 1965, Bob Dylan released his song “Like a Rolling Stone”．It is one of his best known and most influential works.It is an angry song about a woman who was once rich and successful. But now she is on her own，“with no direction home, like a complete unknown, like a rolling stone”．In 1967, a young man named Jann Wenner started a magazine and he named it “Rolling Stone”．The magazine reported on rock music and the popular culture that the music created. By 1971，“Rolling Stone” had become the leading rock music and counterculture publication. It is still popular today.21．Which person can be described as a rolling stone according to the proverb?A．A person who always changes his jobs.B．A person who has a successful career.C．A person who has no family.D．A person who is out of work.22．All of them are musicians except ________．A．Elvis PresleyB．Bob DylanC．Muddy WatersD．Jann Wenner23．Who first used “rolling stone”as a name for music?A．Jann Wenner.B．Bob Dylan.C．Elvis Presley.D．Muddy Waters.课时作业(二十二)Ⅰ.1.C句意：要不是这位医生的精心治疗，他不可能活到去年。

I thought. I had changed one long sentence, and corrected grammar—something I thought I was paid to do.It's not that I hadn't been warned. The other women, who had served in my place before me, called him names I couldn't repeat. One co-worker took me aside the first day. “He's personally responsible for two different secretaries leaving the company，” she whispered.As the weeks went by, I grew to despise Jack. One day, another thing left me in tears so I stormed into his office angrily.“What？” he asked.Suddenly I knew what I must do. After all, he deserved it.I sat across from him. “Jack, the way you've been treating me is wrong. I've never had anyone speak to me that way.” I said. Jack seemed nervous and leaned back in his chair.“I want to make you a promise. I'll be a friend. I'll treat you as you deserve to be treated, with respect and kind ness.” With the words, I left.Jack avoided me the rest of the week. Proposals and letters appeared on my desk while I was at lunch; the corrected versions weren't seen again. Another day I left a note on his desk, reading “Hope your day is going great.” Over the next few weeks, Jack reappeared, but nothing unhappy happened again.One year later, I had breast cancer and I would die soon. The last day of my hospital stay, Jack came. He placed a bundle beside me, saying, “Tulips(郁金香)．”I smiled, not understanding. He cleared his throat. “If you plant them when you get home, they'll come up next spring.” Tears clouded my eyes and I whispered, “Thank you.”Jack grasped my hand, saying, “You're welcome. You can't see it now, but next spring you'll see the color s I picked out for you.”I've seen those beautiful tulips push through the soil every spring for ten years now. I'll never forget Jack. After all, that's what friends do.36．What did the author do to make Jack angry?A．She read the papers without telling him.B．She changed the contents of the papers.C．She embarrassed him by pointing out his mistakes.D．She corrected the papers without his permission.37．It can be inferred from the passage that Jack ________.A．was good at making friends with othersB．got along well with his colleaguesC．wasn't popular with his colleaguesD．always respected his co­workers38．One day the author went to Jack's office with the intended purpose of ________．A．saying sorry to Jack for her misunderstandingB．scolding Jack for what he had done to herC．making up with him by forgiving himD．making him a promise to be a friend for ever39．On the last day of her hospital stay, the author cried because she ________．A．was moved by Jack's flowers and wordsB．was happy that Jack became a good manC．was scared that she would die soonD．was angry with Jack for what he did to her课时作业(二十四)Ⅰ.1.C考查固定搭配。

Bicycling in traffic is considered by many to be reckless(匆忙的), foolhardy(草率的), and sometimes rude. The most common advice given to cyclists is to avoid busy roads that provide convenient access to important places; presumably(据推测)cyclists should only go to unpopular destinations on undesirable and inconvenient roads. Another popular idea is that cyclists should stay as close to the edge of the road as possible in order to stay out of the way of cars. Getting in the way of cars is supposedly an invitation to certain death, because car drivers are often expected to run into anything that is slower or more vulnerable(易受伤的)．The rules of the road that apply to bicyclists are considered to be of no use because they involve mixed with motor traffic, which is thought to be suicide. Roads are believed to be designed for cars and not for bicycles, which are tolerated at the pleasure of motorists, who really own the roads. Inferior bicyclists may have an obsolete(不可再用的) legal right to use the road, but they had better stay out of the way of superior users or they will be “dead right”.As a result of these “common­sense”beliefs, American bike-safety programs developed by motoring organizations and “pedestrian-style” bicyclists during the twentieth century attempted to teach cyclists to provide a clear path to motorists at all times by hugging the edge of the road, riding on sidewalks so cyclists can see when to get out of the way. Some towns and states tried to prohibit bicyclists from operating on important roads or roads without shoulders. Engineering projects designed for “bicycle safety”have usually involved construction of mandatory(强制的)side paths to get cyclists off of roads and mandatory bike lanes to keep cyclists out of the way of motorists. The publicized benefit of these efforts is to protect cyclists from collisions from behind, which are widely believed to be the greatest danger to cyclists and caused by cyclists'_failure_to_keep_up_with_the_desired_speed_of_motor_traffic. This is the taboo that afflicts American bicycle transportation policy: bicyclists must be kept out of the paths of motorists or they will surely be killed.16．In many people's eyes, bicycle should be ________．A．supported B．bannedC．controlled D．cancelled17．From the first paragraph, the person riding a bicycle in the city should take ________．A．main roads B．streetsD．highways D．sidewalks18．Why do many people disagree that people should ride on roads?A．Roads are for cars not for cyclists.B．People riding bicycles are considered inferior.C．People's riding on the road is against the law.D．People riding bicycles are not experienced.19．The underlined phrase “cyclists' failure to keep up with the desired speed of motor traffic”in the second paragraph means ________．A．cyclists' speed is beyond the limitB．cyclists' speed is much lower than that of motorists' and they easily get hurtC．cyclists often compete with motorists on the roadsD．motorists usually look down upon cyclists20．The measures taken by government in some states in the second paragraph are for the purpose of ________．A．protecting people's convenienceB．protecting the cars and motorsC．protecting cyclists' safetyD．protecting the flowing of the trafficⅢ.任务型阅读请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。

2014届最新高考英语一轮单元复习精品阅读理解提升文章精选一百篇（17）Unit 23My Greatest Olympic PrizeIt was the summer of 1936. The Olympic Games were being held in Berlin. Because Hitler insis ted childishly that his p erformers were member s of a master race, nationalistic feelings were at all-time high.I had trained, sw eated and disciplined myself for 6 years. I had my eyes especially on the running broad jump, determined to earn one gold medal for America.A year before, as a sophomore at the Ohio State, I'd set the world's record of 26 feet 8 1/4 inches. Nearly everyone expected me to win th is event.I was in for a surprise. When the time came for the broad-jump trials, I was startled to see a tall boy hitting the pit at almost 26 feet on his practice leaps. He turned out to be a German named Luz Long. He had easily qualified for the finals on his first attempt. I guessed that if Long won, it would add new support to the Nazi's "master race" theory. After all, I'm a Negro. Angry about Hitler's ways, I was determined do show Hitler who was superior and who wasn't.An angry athlete is an athlete who will make mistakes. I f ouled twice on my qualifying jumps. Walking a few yards from the pit, I kicked at the dirt disg ustedly. Suddenly I felt a hand on my shoulder. I turned to look into the friendly blue eyes of Luz Long. "Hi, I'm Luz Long. I don't think we've met." He spoke English well, though with a German twist. "Glad to meet you," I said. Then, trying to hide my nervousness, I added, "How are you?" "I'm fine. Something must be eating you. You should be able to qualify with your eyes closed." He said.he seemed to understand my anger, and took pains to reassure me. Although he'd been schooled in the Nazi youth movement, he didn't believe in the Aryan-superiority busine ss any more than I did. For the next few minutes we talked together. Finally, seeing that I had calmed down somewhat, he said, "What does it matter if you're not the first in the trials? Tomorrow is what counts." All the tension left my body as the truth of what he said hit me. Confiden tly, I drew a line a full feet behind the board and proceeded to jump from there. I qualified with almost a foot to spare.As it turned o ut, Luz bro ke his own record. In doing so, he pushed me on to a peak perf ormance. The instant I landed from my final jump -- the one which set the Oly mpic record of 26 feet 5 1/16 inches -- he was at my side, congratulating me. Despite the fact that Hitler glared at us from the stands not a few yards away, Luz shook my hand hard -- and it wasn't a "fake s mile with a broken heart" sort of grip, either.I r ealized then that Luz was just what Pierr e de Coubertin, founder of the mode rn games, must hav e had in his mind when he said, "The important thing in the OlympicGames is not winning but taking part. The essential thing in life is not conquering but fighting well."。

For more than 100 years, libraries have played an important role in keeping Americans informed and educated. But how are these book-filled buildings changing with the times? You may be surprised to find out.Benjamin Franklin famously set up America's first lending library in 1731 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. But the public library system got its biggest boost(推动) in the late 1800s. Businessman Andrew Carnegie donated millions of dollars to help build free public libraries across the country. Between 1886 and 1919, Carnegie's donations helped build 1，679 new libraries!Carnegie believed in the opportunities that libraries could offer Americans, young and old. He knew that the more libraries there were; the more people would have access to books, lectures, news and more. “There are now more public libraries in the United States than McDonalds restaurants，” said Clara Hayden of Baltimore's Enoch Pratt Free Library.Chances are, there is a public library in or near your community. After all, the United States is home to 9，225 public libraries. Today, libraries continue to innovate(创新) and grow. Seven out of ten libraries offer free Internet access. This opens many doors for community members who can not go online at home, including the opportunity to apply for jobs online.Libraries are also teaching kids about the fun of reading. One new program called Read！Build！Play! combines reading with playtime. As kids listen to a book being read aloud, they use Legos(乐高玩具) to build images from the story. “Today's libraries are always looking for creative programming to bring people into the library，” said Lego's Michael McNally. Benjamin Franklin once said, “The doors of wisdom are never shut.” As long as the doors of public libraries are open, his statement is most certainly true!36．Why does the writer want to start the text with the June 25 news?A．To lead in the topic of the text.B．To show the importance of libraries.C．To encourage readers to celebrate public libraries.D．To make readers interested in reading in libraries.37．According to Paragraph 2, ________．A．Benjamin Franklin founded the first free libraryB．free public libraries used to be popular all over the USAC．there were about 1，679 libraries in America in the late 1800sD．the existence of public libraries was thanks to Andrew Carnegie38．Andrew Carnegie made large donations to build libraries in order to ________．A．become well­known around the countryB．earn a large amount of moneyC．help those who are too poor to afford booksD．make people able to read books free of charge39．Today most libraries are innovating mainly by ________．A．making people have fun reading by offering more interesting booksB．providing more books about how to apply for jobs on the InternetC．making people able to read their books on the Internet free of chargeD．attracting more McDonalds restaurants to be built close to them课时作业(九)Ⅰ.1.A分析句子结构可知，the influence/effect在宾语从句中作主语，其后有定语从句“the earthquake has on the children”修饰。
