Ⅰ.阅读理解AGiving Mary Poppins's magic umbrella some serious competition is the all high-tech “Oombrella”—not only can it predict the weather, it's also impossible to lose. The smart umbrella syncs(同步进行) with a smartphone app, sending users updates about weather conditions 30 minutes in advance, and reminders if they happen to leave the device behind. And here's the added bonus—it won't ever flip inside-out.Designed by French company Wezzoo, the rainbow-colored umbrella comes in two versions—classic and modern. The classic is 3.1-ft long with a curved handle, while the modern version is 0.8-ft long with a straight handle. The company describes the device as a “por table weather station”,made of a reflective surface with built in sensors that record real-time data such as light, humidity, pressure, and temperature. The umbrella collects and processes this data as well as information from a social media community before sending out alerts about when it's going to start raining.And if the user happens to accidentally forget it at home on a potentially rainy day, or leaves it in a restaurant, similar alerts will be sent out using GPS technology to make sure you don't lose it.“We wanted to make this umbrella unforgettable in terms of design, too,”explains Alexandre, of Escabo design studio. “We developed an exclusive material. It makes you feel you are holding an aurora borealis(北极光) in your hands. It has effects that are amazing with the light and always changing. It really makes the umbrella special.”The “capsule” that integrates all the technology, making the umbrella smart, is located in the handle.The umbrella is all set to hit global online and physical stores this fall. According to a company spokesperson, it will retail at 79($86), but the early bird price on Kickstarter is59($64). For those who are rather attached to their current umbrellas, the company will also release an “Oombrella capsule” that can transform any umbrella into a smart device. Now, if only it could make us fly like Mary Poppins!语篇导读本文为说明文,介绍了一款高科技雨伞——“欧姆伞”。

Ⅰ阅读理解(2018·江西师大附中、临川一中联考)“My neighbor doesn’t speak English, but her kindness needs no translation.”Angie Morris, an 81yearold Canadian woman who grew up in wartime Britain and now lives in Vancouver, British Columbia, was describing how her nextdoor neighbor, Ms. Wing, a 68yearold Chinese woman, voluntarily cooks meals for her every day. She called it “the ultimate home-delivery service”、Morris’s moving, firstperson narrative which was published last week by the Canadian newspaper The Globe and Mail, has gone popular,with more than 24,000 online reposts.“I know what is inside the paper carrier bag,”she wrote. “A thermos with hot soup and a stainlesssteel container with a meal of rice, vegetables and either chicken, meat or shrimp,sometimes with a kind of pancake. This has become an almost daily occurrence.”Wing started her act of kindness when she learned that Morris had to undergo heart surgery.She took it upon herself to begin feeding her neighbor, even though the two women have no way of communicating verbally. Wing speaks only Mandarin, and Morris’s Mandarin is limited to ni hao(hello)、“So here we are, two grandmothers a world away from where we were raised, neither of us able to speak the other’s language, but communicating one way or another(with some help from technology). The doorbell keeps ringing and there is the familiar brown paper carrier bag, handed smilingly to me by Wing,”Morris wrote.Readers and netizens around the world have been touched by this relationship that crosses national boundaries and focuses on human kindness.“You know that most people in this world just want to live a good life,”one reader commented. “I come from old Ireland, so I can tell you a thing or two about conflict. The point is, most people are very good with big hearts and want their children to grow up safe and in places like this country can offer.”【解题导语】互为邻居的两位老人温女士与安吉·莫里斯虽然语言不通无法交流,但温女士在得知莫里斯要做手术的消息后,主动为其做饭。
课时规范练19(必修4Module1)Ⅰ.阅读理解(2017·河北衡水中学三调)We can have conflict with our important persons like friends,relatives,workmates,etc.But conflict doesn’t necessarily mean that the relationship will be destroyed.In fact,sometimes conflict helps people to let out their silent feelings,allowing them to free their suppressed emotions.However,when in conflict,we usually get angry and say or do things which aren’t linked to the problem athand.Therefore,it is important that we should try to avoid conflict through effective communication.In a heated argument,we usually say things that aren’t related to the real problem,and even use rude words to make sure we gain an advantage over the other person.Then the whole situation goes badly.So we should separate(隔离)the root cause of the problem and build our discussion aroundit.This ensures that there are no rude remarks and the situation moves in a positive direction.It’s easy for us to think we’re right and if something isn’t working out,it surely must be someone else’s fault.However,if you aim to solve conflict,first of all,you should show some respect and allow the other party to express ing remarks like,“I understand your concern on this”or “I know you’re right at your end”,would make the other person feel more appreciated.Sometimes some people get too excited and may behave in a wrong way or say something others may not appreciate.This can cause a worse situation.Actually,they should control their emotions and keep calm.This has to be learned through self-control and observing behavior of other people.The tips mentioned above are useful for most situations.However,we don’t rule out the possibility that there are some people always want to create some sort of trouble for others.You can tell them from others,and putting in an effort to resolve conflict with them may just not be a wise idea.The best way to deal with these people is to forget them.A famous saying can help you and that is:“You should never fight with a pig;you both get dirty and only the pig likes it.”1.What can we learn from Paragraph 1?A.Conflict may help us deal with our emotions.B.Conflict can improve our relations with others greatly.C.Effective communication can help us avoid conflict undoubtedly.D.The closer two friends are,the more conflict is between them.2.When making discussions to solve conflict,we should .A.know others’ personal qualityB.know others’ ability of expressionC.avoid showing our disadvantagesD.avoid the root cause of the problem3.The author suggests that when people get too excited,they should .A.behave like other peopleB.control the situationC.learn to keep their headD.say something unconcerned4.In the author’s opinion,how should you deal with those who always want to create trouble for you?A.Fight with them.B.Ignore them.C.Have a talk with them.D.Give them something they like.〚导学号00420080〛Ⅱ.完形填空(2017·北京卷)Hannah Taylor is a schoolgirl from Manitoba,Canada.One day,when she was five

a group of mothers on low incomes in the US is beginning to discover the precise role of parental income in child development.It is the firstrandomized trial to look at whether a basic income might affect the way a child’s brain develops in this critical period.We know that the first few years of a child’s life are the most influential in their development.Brain development is particularly rapid in early childhood and therefore more likely to be influenced by the environment.Studies of children born into families on low incomes have found they tend to have more behavioral problems and are behind their peers when they start school.However,it isn’t clear whether low income directly leads to these outcomes,or whether they are a result of other factors associated with growing up in poverty.To find out,Kimberly Noble at Columbia University in the City of New York and her colleagues approached women on low incomes who had just given birth at four sites in the US.The team measured several things throughout the study.At each yearlyfollow-up,children are assessed by measures like sleepquality,developmental milestones,overall health and emotional development.One unique aspect of the study is the use of mobile EEGheadsets to monitor the infants’ brain activity in their home environments.Almost $4 million has been given out through the study so far.Though it is too early to draw full conclusions,some preliminary(初步的) results are already of interest.For ee of the parents have allowed the researchers to keep track of their transactions(交易).Those in the high-cash group appear to be spending more on books for their children,and spending more time reading together,according to surveys the team conducted.This is potentially good news because reading to infants is known to be good for cognitive development,vocabulary and promoting important bonds between adults and children.Eventually the findings could help with policyinterventions(干涉) to assist children born into poverty,or even to find ways to buffer the effects of poverty later in life.8.What does the passage mainly talk about?A.The early years of a child’s life are the most influential.B.Women should earn more to promote children’s development.C.M oney affects brain development in one’s childhood.prehensive measures are to be taken to assist children.9.The unconditional cash given out brings positive consequences possibly because .A.the family can live a carefree life with the cashB.it helps to offer a better environment to the childrenC.the family can offer the children more nutritionD.it provides more time for the family to get together10.The underlined word “buffer” in the last paragraph may mean .A.preventB.causeC.reduceD.transform11.How were the conclusions of the study proved?A.By making questionnaires.B.By taking randomized trials.C.By giving participants interviews.D.By doing follow-up researches.D(河北保定一模)E space is an unexplained wonder.Scientists don’t k now ees from.And

gamma rays are sent out.Those hot spots show that our galailky Way,has powerful particle accelerators(加速器).But those particle accelerators aren’t made byhumans.Instead,they come from violent events in the universe.They might be eple.Such violent events make electric and magnetic fields,which can speed up protons(质子) and electrons.Those fast particles can then produce gamma rays with a lot of energy.That canhappen when protons interact with other matter in space,for example.Scientists aren’t sure what could produce gamma rays with the extreme energies observed.But the new observations point to two possibilities.One hot spot was associated with the Crab Nebula.That’s the remains of an exploded star.Another possible source was the Cygnus Cocoon.That’s a region where massive stars are forming.The stars send out intense winds in the process.LHAASO is l ocated on Haizi Mountain in China’s Sichuan Province.It is not yet fully operational.It’s due to be completed later this year.Then,it could find even more gamma rays.12.What can we learn about gamma rays?A.They are invisible.B.They are often ignored.C.They contain little energy.D.They are used to ee eake the explanation lively.B.To help understand the Milky Way.C.To illustrate that the universe is ema rays might be produced.14.Which word can describe the astronomical observation mentioned in this text?A.Disappointing.B.Eed.15.What can be a suitable title for this tema Rays Come from Multiple SourcesB.The Universe Is Exploding with Great EnergyC.Light from Space Has Record-Breaking EnergyD.Gamma Rays Can Only Be Seen by AstronautsⅡ.七选五(福建福州质量抽测)There is no escaping our evolution into a cashless society.The idea that all transactions(交易) can be completed digitally is becoming more realistic day by day. 1 As it is,people increasingly demand low-touch or contactless payments with growing concerns over the spread of viruses and diseases.A cashless society would give rise to a new era for financial deals.The key benefits would include lower crime rates,easier foreign transactions,andreduced risks and costs.The idea of a cashless society appears very common in our society. 2Economic inequality and inclusivity(包容性) are fundamental issues still present worldwide. 3 The unbanked and poor could face significant challenges with digital modes of payment.In fact,most of the unbanked view the cashless movement as an unfair act against those without bank accounts.For a cashless society,there needs to be an understanding and acceptance by governments and payment providers of the financial inclusion issues currently in existence. 4 There are also the elderly and the disabled who face their own challenges with rapid digitalization and technological advancement.There are still parts of society that lack trust in digital payments or have barriers to accessing mobile phones and the Internet.5 It is also about to launch a national digital currency(货币),the world’s first.Nearly everything can be transacted by digital means here.As we prepare for the consequence of the pandemic,and use the model set by China,other countries need to takeit upon themselves to provide a harmonious,effective,and cashless society —one that does not leave anyone behind.A.However,this is far from reality.B.Several countries have entered cashless society.C.A cashless society might actually worsen these problems.D.The pandemic has sped up the move away from physical cash.E.In China,four out of every five payments are now cashless.F.It isn’t just the unbanked who are at risk of being left behind.G.So financial inclusion needs to be the core value in a cashless society.必修4 Module 1 阅读理解题组——练速度Ⅰ.【语篇导读】本文是一篇应用文。
必修四Module 1Life in the Future(建议用时25分钟)Ⅰ.阅读理解AIt’s cold and dark outside,and your bed is so warm and comfortable.Going for a run seems like such a bad idea.But before you hide your running shoes,it might be worth giving that crazy idea a go.According to The Huffington Post,an outdoor run in winter,as opposed to one on a treadmill (跑步机),burns more calories because the body is working hard to regulate (调节) its core temperature.Furthermore,research shows that race times are faster in cold weather than at warmer temperatures—and quicker runs burn more calories.Similarly,cold weather also makes the heart work harder to distribute blood through the body,making that vital organ even stronger.Outdoor exercise also makes you full of energy and rids you of the stress and depression that build up every day.The heat and humidity in summer can drag you down and tire you faster,but cold weather is refreshing.It adjusts you to your surroundings,making you feel alive.Of course,the threat of smog in some built-up areas is a further hurdle (障碍) to winter exercise.Heart attacks,strokes,lung cancer and asthma (哮喘) are all dangers of running in smog.The combination of air pollution and exercise increases the potential problems.If you do choose to run outside on smoggy days,take a path in a park or residential area to avoid car exhaust (废气),and go early in the morning,before rush hour.But staying inside on smoggy days and waiting for the next clear day to run is better.[语篇解读]本文介绍了冬季户外跑步的好处。
Ⅰ阅读理解A(2018·成都诊断)What are your retirement plans? Keep working?Get more exercise? Or learn something new? You mayput__them__on__hold. There’s a chance that, sooner or later, youmight have to move further than you were thinking, as far as Mars(火星).On Thursday, National Geographic will show the first ever Mars show home, giving earthlings an idea of what their life could look like on the Red Planet. Set in the notsodistant year of 2037, the iglooshaped structure could be the home of your future.It shows a house built using recycled spacecraft parts and Martian soil, called regolith, which has been microwaved into bricks. Some parts of the home are recognisable—kitchen, bedroom—but there are fundamental differences that are vital for human survival.As the Martian atmosphere is around one hundredth as thick as the Earth’s, people will need permanent shelter from the sun and society will move largely indoors. Most buildings will be connected by underground passages and the houses won’t have windows. The homes will have simulated solar lighting, or natural light that has been bent several times.Walls will need to be 10 to 12 feet thick, to protect people from dangerous rays that can pass through six feet of steel, and a double airlocked entrance to keep the home under proper pressure.“We don’t think of our houses as things that keep us alive, but on Mars your house will be a survival centre,”says Stephen Petranek, author of How We’ll Live on Mars. This is not just the stuff of scifi. “Ten to twenty years from now there will certainly be people on Mars,”Petranek says.“We’ve had the technology for 30 years to land people on Mars, but we haven’t had the will,”Petranek says. “But two main factors have completely swung public attitudes.”The private companies’participation has forced government agencies to up their game, and influential films such as Gravity and The Martian have caught society’s eye.【解题导语】本文主要对人类未来在火星上居住作了相关介绍。
