If you think that is a simple question, you have not been paying attention to the revolution that is taking place in biotechnology(生物技术). With the help of new medicine, the human body will last a very long time. Death will come mainly from accidents, murder and war. Today's leading killers, such as heart disease, cancer, and aging itself, will become distant memories.In discussion of technological changes, the Internet gets most of the attention these days. But the change in medicine can be the real technological event of our times. How long can humans live? Human brains were known to decide the final death. Cells are the basic units of all living things, and until recently, scientists were sure that the life of cells could not go much beyond 120 years because the basic materials of cells, such as those of brain cells, would not last forever. But the upper limits will be broken by new medicine. Sometime between 2050 and 2100, medicine will have advanced to the point at which every 10 years or so, people will be able to take medicine to repair their organs. The medicine, made up of the basic building materials of life, will build new brain cells, heart cells, and so on—in much the same way our bodies make new skin cells to take the place of old ones.It is exciting to image that the advance in technology may be changing the most basic condition of human existence, but many technical problems still must be cleared up on the way to this wonderful future.16.According to the passage, human death is now mainly caused by ________.A.diseases and agingB.accidents and warC.accidents and agingD.heart disease and war17.In the author's opinion, today's most important advance in technology lies in ________.A.medicineB.the InternetC.brain cellsD.human organs18.Humans may live longer in the future because ________.A.heart disease will be far away from usB.human brains can decide the final deathC.the basic materials of cells will last foreverD.human organs can be repaired by new medicine19.How long can humans live in the future according to the passage?A.Over 100 years.B.More than 120 years.C.About 150 years.D.The passage doesn't tell us.20.We can learn from the passage that ________.A.human life will not last more than 120 years in the futureB.humans have to take medicine to build new skin cells nowC.much more needs to be done before humans can have a longer lifeD.we have already solved the technical problems in building new cellsBToday I went to Sam's school in the UK. It was different from my school in China.The uniforms were a lot more suitlike. Girls wore gray skirts and white shirts, boys wore smart gray trousers, and everyone wore the school tie.We arrived at 8:30 am for registration, and lessons began at 9 am. Like all 15to16yearolds in the UK, Sam is taking her GCSE (General Certificate of Secondary Education) exams this summer. Once you've completed these, you can choose whether to do two more years of school and take your “Alevel exams”, which you need to go to university; do a vocational qualification (职业资格); or leave school and try to get a job. Everyone has to take GCSE English language, math (“maths” in the UK) and science. Because Sam wants to go to university to become a lawyer, she's doing nine GCSEs in total. She'll need to get top grades, the highest being an A.Some of Sam's lessons were a bit strange for me. We were reading Shakespeare in the English lesson, and there were all sorts of oldfashioned words like “thou” and “thee”to mean “you”. In history we studied 20th Century China. It was strange hearing a foreign side of history and hearing English people trying to say all our Chinese names!Classes were a lot smaller than in China; there were only between 15 and 30 students in each class! They were also a lot more relaxed. Male teachers were called “Sir” and female teachers “Miss” out of respect, but everyone shouted out answers and waved their hands in lessons. It was more like a debate than a class. A bell rang at the end of each lesson and everyone leapt up to go to the next class.At break we bought crisps and biscuits in the canteen. Lunch was later than in China—at 1 o'clock. We had big plates of “shepherd's pie”—minced meat topped with mashed potato—together with peas and carrots. For dessert there was hot sweet rice called “rice pudding” with jam in it.It was good that I'd had a decent lunch, because at Sam's school, Monday afternoons are taken up with sport. I had my first introduction to the British game of netball—a bit like basketball. Luckily I'd had a quick look in the rulebook (规则手册) beforeI tried to join in the game.21.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?A.Not everyone in Sam's school wore the school tie.B.The students in Sam's school got to school at 8:30.C.Classes in Sam's school were much smaller than in China.D.The students in Sam's school were also much more relaxed.22.All the things students can choose to do after they finish their GCSEs except ________.A.doing two more years of school and taking their Alevel examsB.doing a vocational qualificationC.leaving school and trying to get a jobD.finding a parttime job23.Which of the following is NOT strange for the author according to the passage?A.There were all kinds of oldfashioned words in Shakespeare.B.Students leapt up to go to the next class after finishing one lesson.C.Foreigners studied 20th Century China.D.English people tried to say Chinese names.24.Why do students call male teachers “Sir” and female teachers “Miss” according to the passage?A.Because the students like teachers.B.Because the students want to show their respect to their teachers.C.Because the school asks them to do it.D.Because it is a custom.25.What might British students eat at break?A.Shepherd's pies. B.Peas and carrots.C.Crisps and biscuits. D.Rice puddings.答案课时作业(二十三)Ⅰ.“让人们快乐”,是妈妈从事艺术工作的根本目标,也是她老人家给“我”的建议,“我”也一直在这样努力着。
Unit 3Life in the future课时作业Ⅰ.阅读AWhat picture do you have of the future? Will life in the future be better, worse or the same as now? What do you hope about the future?Futurologists predict that life will probably be very different in 2050 in all the fields of activity, from entertainment to technology. First of all, it seems that TV channels will have disappeared by 2050. Instead, people will choose a program from a “menu” and a puter will send the program directly to the television. By 2050, music, films, programs, newspapers and books will e to us by puter.In what concerns the environment, water will have bee one of our most serious problems. Demand for water will increase ten times between now and 2050 and there could be serious shortages. Some futurologists predict that water could be the cause of war if we don't act now. In transport, cars will run on new, clean fuels and they will go very fast. Cars will have puters to control the speed and there won't be any accidents. Today, many cars have puters that tell drivers exactly where they are. By 2050, the puter will control the car and drive it to your destination.In the domain of technology, robots will have replaced people in factories. Many factories already use robots. Big panies prefer robots—they do not ask for pay rises or go on strike, and they work 24 hours a day. By 2050, we will see robots everywhere—in factories, schools, offices, hospitals, shops and homes.Last but not least, medicine technology will have conquered many diseases. Today scientists have discovered how to control genes. They have already produced clones of animals. By 2050, scientists will be able to produce clones of people and decide how they look, how they behave and how much intelligence they have. Scientists will be able to do these things—but should they?篇章导读:本文是一篇记叙文。
Unit 3 Life in the futureⅠ.阅读理解A(2018·潍坊商务模拟)My main career has been in information technology: I was “the puter guy”. Where I live in remote northern Minnesota, good tech jobs were rare.Then I got divorced and found myself a single mother with two sons in school. Without a permanent job working on puters, I was concerned about my family's future. So I sat down with my sons to discuss whether we should move to where the higherpaying jobs are. But we decided to stay and I'd go back to college for more training, even though it meant we'd be living on less.While I work toward an education degree, I have bee what's called a Promise Fellow in a local middle school. Among the “promises” we make at the start of each school year is that the students will have a caring adult in their life, no matter what. My fellow “Fellows” and I don't teach. We do what's called “wholelife support” because our students need more than just academics to succeed.Why? Their lives aren't easy. The remote counties I live and work in have experienced a huge downturn in the primary industry of iron mining. The poverty (贫困) experienced by my students and their families is often worsened by mental health problems, plus drug and alcohol abuse.With our attention, the students feel supported, Most of the kids have a lot of abilities and are smarter than they give themselves credit for. We take them to college campuses and get them to visualize their future.I had worked with two students in our 2016 graduating class at Northern Lights Community School. Both are going to college this fall. These are the same kids who laughed at me when I first mentioned college to them, so I know I've played a role in their lives.文章大意本文是一篇记叙文。
Unit 3 Life in the futureⅠ.阅读理解A(2017·江西南昌模拟测试卷)When people introduce themselves, I always hear them say “I'm just a housewife”.I don't understand why their introduction is always filled with regret and selfpity. Is it really a crime to be a housewife? Is it really embarrassing when you choose not to work outside and instead choose to work in your home?How could you be “just a housewife” when the basic social unit of society depends on you and your service? A housewife works for the longest hour, supporting your husband, child's studies, caring for elders, managing finances, paying bills, grocery shopping, cooking according to individual taste, cleaning, etc. A housewife could be anyone: daughter, wife, mother, teacher, financial advisor, fashion designer and nurse, gardener, driver, cook, and so on. Don't think you are not being paid for it. You get the reward that no money can offer — the love and affection of your family, their trust in you, a happy home and your own satisfaction.It is you who choose to be in this occupation, willingly or for any other reason. After a busy day, all wait to return to the comfortable home set by you. They know you will be there to absorb all their stress and tiredness and relax them. Would the life have been the same had you been working outside to earn some money? Would you along with your family have been able to buy all the content in life that you are enjoying now with that money?Respect yourself for what you are. Introduce yourself to the world with the same dignity. The world understands the importance of your job; it's time to make them accept it. Introduce yourself with pride and with twinkle in your eyes “I am a housewife”. Kick that “just” out.【解题导语】本文主要讨论了家庭主妇的伟大之处。

He gave me a cent for every nail I 17 out of old boards. I got my first 18 job, atJM' s Restaurant in town, when I was 12. My main responsibilities (职责) were . 19tables and washing dishes, 20 sometimes I helped cook.Every day after school I would 21 to JM's and work until ten. Even on SaturdaysI 22 from two until eleven. At that age it was difficult going to work and 23 myfriends run off to swim or play. I didn't necessarily like work, but I loved whatworking 24 me to have . Because of my 25 I was always the one buying when my friendsand I went to the local Tastee Freez. This made me 26 .Word-that I was trustworthy and hardworking 27 around town. A local clothingstore offered me credit (赊账) 28 I was only in seventh grade. I immediately 29a $ 68 sports coat and a $ 22 pair of shoes. I was 30 only 65 cents an hour, andI already owed the storekeeper $ 90! So I learned 31 the danger of easy credit. Ipaid it 32 as soon as I could.My first job taught me self-control, responsibility and brought me a 33 ofpersonal satisfaction few of my friends had experienced. As my father, 34 workedthree jobs, once told me," If you 35 sacrifice (奉献) and responsibility, there arenot many things in life you can't have. "How right he was.16. A. Before B. Within C. FromD.

It sometimes means to make a calculation (计算) about thefuture, which is based not on exact data but on past experience. This kind of estimatehas some basis, but it generally has to be changed and corrected later.When you estimate a number, a size, a temperature or a weight, you do not countthings one by one or use a measuring tool. You look at a group of things withoutcounting them and try to get a rough, general idea of their number, you try to weighsomething in your hand instead of on a balance. You feel hot and say "My temperaturemust be 38 degrees" or you look at a room and say that you estimate its area as 10X8feet.But in many situations in ordinary life we do not have time to measure thingsand must depend on estimates. Drivers do not have time to measure the distance betweentheir own car and a car which is ing near. They must guess it; the guess or estimatewill be based on their past experience Experienced cooks do not trouble to measurethe amount of salt they put into the soup or sugar they mix with flour.Suppose a man es into the house and says "There are two inches of snow on theroad", his statement is only an estimate, but we believe it because we think thatit is roughly correct. We put our boots on before we go into the snow.For practical purposes in some situations it is safe to make estimates ofquantity, but in other situations it is obviously dangerous. If it is your job toweigh drugs or make airplanes, do not depend on guessing but use an accurate instru-ment.36. In our daily life the estimate of a value or an amount is usually made________.A. by further dataB. by instrumentsC. by countingD. according to one's past experience37. According to the passage, measuring instruments are not always used in measuringthings in everyday life because________.A. people generally do not carry them alongB. it is more convenient to guess than to measureC. they are not always ready when people need themD. a general idea of things is enough38. We can know from the man's statement on snow that________.A. he wants to inform people that it's snowing heavilyB. it is necessary to depend on estimatesC. his estimate is quite exactD. he has measured the level of the snow39. The writer thinks that depending on estimates________ .A. may save us both time and moneyB. may bring us a sense of safetyC. does not always keep us out of dangerD. is practical but dangerousBHuman's wants seem endless. When a starving man gets a meal, he begins to think about an overcoat; when a man gets a new sports car, visions of country clubs and pleasure boats dance into view.The many wants of mankind might be regarded as making up several levels. When there is money enough to satisfy one level of wants, another level appears.The first and most basic level of wants involves(包括) food. Once this want is satisfied, a second level of wants appears; clothing and some sort of shelter. By the end of World War II these wants were satisfied for a great majority of Americans. Then a third level appeared. It included such items as cars and new houses.By 1957 or 1958 the third level of wants was fairly well satisfied. Then, in the late 1950s a fourth level of wants appeared: the "life-enriching" level. While the other levels involve physical satisfaction—the feeding, fort, safety, and transportation of the human body—these levels stress mental needs for recognition, achievement, and happiness. It includes a variety of goods and services, many of which could be called "luxury" items. Among them are vacation trips, the best medical and dental care, and entertainment. Also included fancy foods and the latest styles in clothing.On the fourth level, a greater percentage of customers spending goes to services, while on the first three levels more is spent on goods. Will customers raise their sights to a fifth level of wants as their ine increase, or will they continue to demand luxuries and personal services on the fourth level?A fifth level probably would involve wants that can be achieved best by munity action. Customers may be spending more on taxes to pay for government action against disease, ignorance (无知), crime, and prejudice. After filling our stomachs, our clothes, our closets, our garages, our teeth, and our minds, we now may seek to ensure the health, safety, and leisure to enjoy more fully the good things on the first four levels.40. It can be inferred from the passage that by the end of World War II most Americans_______.A. were very richB. lived in povertyC. had the good things on the first three levelsD. did not own cars41. What is the main concern of man on the fourth level? ________ .A. More goodsB. More mental satisfactionC. More "luxury" itemsD. More earnings42. According to the writer, a fifth level________.A. would be little better than the fourth levelB. may be a lot more satisfying than the first fourC. can be the last and most satisfying levelD. will e about if the government takes actionsCThe decision to further all or part of your studies outside your country is a serious one, and one which for most students will have a special life-long benefit.

Even more amazing is that the person behind it is just 21.When Alice Pulford was waiting to get into university, she took a fivemonth teaching position in Malawi.She loved the place, and returned in the spring of 2009 to visit her friend Zulu in Tilinanu.His aunt Mercy owned land there and was doing her best to provide an education for the orphans, many of whom had lost parents to AIDS or malaria(疟疾).But after helping Mercy out for some time, Alice realised that what the girls in particular really needed was a safe and permanent place to live.There was a derelict(年久失修的) church on Mercy's land.“If you give me the church, I'll set up a home for these children,” Alice told her.Mercy agreed.Alice phoned home and told her family about her plan.The family had already helped Alice raise £1,800 to assist the orphans.After they received Alice's call, they threw themselves into raising another £6,000, organising theatre trips andspecial parties and dinners.Alice found Malawian builders, selected materials and even helped with the brick laying.In ten weeks, the church became a dormitory with toilets and a living area.In spring last year, Alice raised another £19,000 to build the medical centre and two new dormitories.The girls are happier—and so is Alice, who has been spending around four months in Malawi a year.“The orphans think they're gaining from me, but when I see their smile, it transforms me,” she says.31.Over a year ago, the orphans didn't have ________.A.a classroom B.a teacherC.shelter D.food32.What is known about the home Alice has built for the orphans?A.It looks like a community hall.B.It depends on the villagers' help.C.It provides a place for recreation.D.It benefits both the children and adults.33.Pulford's family are ________.A.short of moneyB.fond of entertainmentsC.supportive of each otherD.unaware of Alice's plan34.What has Alice learned from her experience?A.Moneyraising is a family business.B.Winning orphans' smile calls for skills.C.AIDS has made many children parentless.D.Helping others brings changes in a person.Ⅳ.完成句子35.

If you think that is a simple question, you have not been paying attention to the revolution that is taking place in bio-technology(生物技术). With the help of new medicine, the human body will last a very long time. Death will come mainly from accidents, murder and war. Today's leading killers, such as heart disease, cancer, and aging itself, will become distant memories.In discussion of technological changes, the Internet gets most of the attention these days. But the change in medicine can be the real technological event of our times. How long can humans live? Human brains were known to decide the final death. Cells are the basic units of all living things, and until recently, scientists were sure that the life of cells could not go much beyond 120 years because the basic materials of cells, such as those of brain cells, would not last forever. But the upper limits will be broken by new medicine. Sometime between 2050 and 2100, medicine will have advanced to the point at which every 10 years or so, people will be able to take medicine to repair their organs. The medicine, made up of the basic building materials of life, will build new brain cells, heart cells, and so on—in much the same way our bodies make new skin cells to take the place of old ones.It is exciting to image that the advance in technology may be changing the most basic condition of human existence, but many technical problems still must be cleared up on the way to this wonderful future.16.According to the passage, human death is now mainly caused by ________.A.diseases and agingB.accidents and warC.accidents and agingD.heart disease and war17.In the author's opinion, today's most important advance in technology lies in ________.A.medicineB.the InternetC.brain cellsD.human organs18.Humans may live longer in the future because ________.A.heart disease will be far away from usB.human brains can decide the final deathC.the basic materials of cells will last foreverD.human organs can be repaired by new medicine19.How long can humans live in the future according to the passage?A.Over 100 years.B.More than 120 years.C.About 150 years.D.The passage doesn't tell us.20.We can learn from the passage that ________.A.human life will not last more than 120 years in the futureB.humans have to take medicine to build new skin cells nowC.much more needs to be done before humans can have a longer lifeD.we have already solved the technical problems in building new cellsBCelebrities(名人) have become a powerful influence on some people because of their social position and their economic situation.First, some people admire and imitate stars because they allow themselves to be influenced by the media.Television, radio, and magazines invade(侵扰) the lives of spectators with a variety of shows, information, and publications about stars and their lives.For instance, Britney Spears has become the target of paparazzi(狗仔队).In May, Britney appeared at the front page of the most popular magazines revealing that she married her best friend in Vegas, Nevada.Media also invade stars' lives because reporters know they get high profits from readers who buy and follow their favorite artists' news.Second, some fanatic audiences imitate their celebrities because they lack confidence.Some people who are shy and lack personality may find that imitating others will cause a good impression.For example, my cousin Jenny, who lacks a social life because of her introverted(内向的) personality, believes that acting and dressing like Jennifer Lopez will make her popular in high school.Finally, several fans of stars imitate them because of peer(同龄人) pressure.Since my niece's girl friends formed an Antonio Banderas' fan club, she had also joined the group.Although she wasn't a huge fan of his, now she collects most of Banderas' possessions.In fact, when I asked Arianna, my niece, why she was part of Banderas' fan club, she replied with a doubtful tone that she did not wish to be rejected by the other teens.In conclusion, it is true that celebrities play spectacular roles in their performances in Hollywood, which entertains myriads of people all over the world; however, modern celebrities influence audiences to the point where their fans admire and try to imitate artists' lives.21.What does the passage mainly tell us?A.Why people are influenced by celebrities.B.The harmful influence of celebrities.C.What kind of people are influenced by celebrities.D.How to avoid the influence of celebrities.22.We can infer from Paragraph 2 that________.A.media are on the side of starsB.stars know how to take advantage of mediaC.media can give wrong information about starsD.media invade stars' lives for their own good23.Jenny acts and dresses like Jennifer Lopez because________.A.she admires Jennifer Lopez's personalityB.she wants to become famous tooC.she wants to change her own personalityD.she lacks self-confidence24.Arianna joined the Antonio Banderas' fan club to________.A.seek encouragement from the starB.be accepted by other teensC.become a real fan of the starD.learn more about the star25.The author of the passage probably believes that________.A.it's easy for people to resist the influence of celebritiesB.all young people are easily influenced by celebritiesC.it's no good for people to imitate celebrities blindlyD.people can improve their personality by imitating their favorite stars答案课时作业(二十三)Ⅰ.作者现在是一位17岁的中学生。

It is February 25, 2099, seven o'clock. Time to get up and go to school,” said the clock-robot in a mental voice. Then the kitchen-robot gave him toast and eggs. Billy was amazed. While he was eating, the whole wall became a TV screen and Billy thought that it was great having robots to do everything for him. Billy ate his meal, watching a TV show. When he finished eating, the clothes-robot gave him his clothes very fast and dressed him. Then Billy went off to school.When Billy went outside, he saw a car with no driver waiting for him. The car said, “Hello, I will be driving you to school every day. Now would you please show your school ID card?” said the car. So Billy showed the car his school ID card and got in. The car began to talk to Billy about his school and his schoolwork. After that the car said, “I will check your homework today because you will have a very, very important lesson to learn in school today. Please put your homework on the blackboard.” Billy did so.The car checked Billy's homework and then said, “Well done! You are a great student. All of your homework is correct.” When they got to school, Billy said to the car, “Goodbye. See you later.”The car said to Billy, “Good luck in your school.” Billy got into the classroom and took his seat at the front of the room. Then his teacher came in and said, “Welcome, children! Today we will have a hard but important lesson—‘How do robots help a human being?’…”16.What's the best title of the passage?A.Billy's Daily LifeB.How Billy Go to SchoolC.How Do Robots Help Humans in the FutureD.Robots17.Who cooked breakfast for Billy?A.His mother. B.His father.C.A robot. D.Billy himself.18.When did Billy have to show his school ID card?A.Before getting to school.B.Before getting into the car.C.Before entering the classroom.D.Before classes were over.19.Which of the following is NOT true?A.Billy liked having robots to do everything for him.B.At first Billy was very surprised.C.Billy was glad that the robot teacher would give a very, very important lesson.D.The car itself drove Billy to school.BThe plan: turn Mars into a blue world with streams and green fields, and then fill it with creatures(生物) from the earth.This idea may sound like something from a science fiction (科幻小说), but it is actually being taken seriously by many researchers.This suggested future for the “red planet”will be the main topic for discussion at an international conference hosted by NASA (美国宇航局) this week.Leading researchers as well as science fiction writers will attend the event.It comes as NASA is preparing a multi-billion-dollar Mars research programme.“Turning Mars into a little earth has long been a topic in science fiction,”said Dr Michael Meyer, NASA's senior scientist for astrobiology (太空生物学).“Now,with scientists exploring the reality, we can ask what are the real possibilities of changing Mars.”Most scientists agree that Mars could be turned into a little earth, although much time and money would be needed to achieve this goal.But many experts are shocked by the idea.“We are destroying our own world at an unbelievable speed and now we are talking about ruining another planet,” said Paul Murdin, of the Institute of Astronomy, Cambridge, UK.Over the past months, scientists have become increasingly confident they will find Martian life forms.Europe and America's robot explorers have found proof that water, mixed with soil, exists in large amounts on the planet.In addition, two different groups of scientistsannounced on March 28 that they had found signs of methane (甲烷) in the Martian atmosphere (大气).The gas is a waste product of living creatures and could be produced by microbes (微生物) living in the red planet's soil.But scientists such as Dr Lisa Pratt, a biologist at Indiana University, say that these microbes will be put in danger by the little earth project.“Before we have even discovered if there is life on Mars, we are talking about carrying out projects that would destroy all these native life forms, all the strange microbes that we hope to find buried in the soil,” said Dr Pratt.This view is shared by Monica Grady, a planetary scientist at the Natural History Museum, London.“We cannot risk starting a global experiment that would wipe out the precious information we are looking for.”she said, “This is just wrong.”20.The passage is about________.A.a plan turning Mars into a little earthB.the necessity of changing MarsC.Mars supporting lifeD.finding water in the Mars21.Which of the following is NOT the reason why some scientists are against the plan?A.The project would wipe out all the native life forms on the Mars.B.The project will cost too much money and work.C.We would ruin Mars.D.We are destroying our own world at an unbelievable speed.22.We can infer from the passage that________.A.water is a crucial factor for lifeB.the project will have little effect on the native life forms supposed to live on the MarsC.Monica Grady is in favour of carrying out the little earth projectD.the idea turning Mars into a little earth is nothing but a science fiction23.Which of the following supports the conclusion of microbes living in the Mars soil?A.Scientists found liquid water in the Mars.B.Scientists found signs of methane in the Martianatmosphere.C.Scientists found a lot of good soil on the Mars.D.Scientists found some creatures living on the Mars.Ⅲ.短文填词阅读下面短文,根据以下提示:1)汉语提示,2)首字母提示,3)语境提示,在每个空格内填入一个适当的英语单词,并将该词完整地写在下边相对应的横线上。
