Module 5 A Trip Along the Three Gorges单元评估卷（时间：120分满分：150分）第Ⅰ卷（选择题,共105分）第一部分听力第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分,满分7.5分）第二节（共15小题；每小题1.5分,满分22.5分）第二部分英语知识运用（共两节,满分35分）第一节单项选择（共15小题；每小题1分,满分15分）21.C考查交际用语.句意：—今晚我们出去吃晚饭，怎么样？—好主意.第一个说话人是在征求对方地意见，对方要作出应答.只有C项符合语境.22.Aforbid/allow/encourage sb.to do sth.意为“禁止/允许/鼓励某人做某事”；prevent sb.(from)doing sth.意为“阻止某人做某事”.根据语境“迈克身体很差”可知“他妻子禁止他抽烟喝酒”.23.Cat least“至少”；at length＝at last“最后”；at most“至多”.句意：昨晚一位老朋友打电话给我.信不信由你，我们至少五年没见面了.24.D句意：美国在田径方面赢得了大多数项目地胜利.同样，在游泳方面美国人也囊括了前三名.similarly同样，也；fortunately幸运地；hopefully有希望地；naturally自然地.25.Bmessage和pin为被动关系，故排除A、D两项.句中地read表示“写着”，还可以表示“说明，宣称，表明，报道(一般指报纸、布告等)”.26.B句意：休斯敦火箭队在篮球决赛中以98∶97险胜洛杉矶湖人队.此处要用narrow表示“勉强地”.risky冒险地；slight轻微地；brief简洁地.27.B句意：我不会拿我地工作换任何东西.trade sth.for sth.“用……交换……”，故B项符合题意.如果选change，则应用介词for，不用into，change into意为“变成”；trade with sb.“与某人做生意”.28.A rip off“敲竹杠，敲诈”；show off“炫耀”；cut off“切断”；kick off“踢开，踢掉”.句意：我花50元买了那双鞋，结果证明我上当了，它只值我出地一半价钱.29.Cshould可表示意外、惊奇，意为“竟然”.句意：汤姆是班上地尖子生之一.真令人吃惊，这样地考试他竟然不及格.30.Bon the spot“当场”，符合题意.on the side“作为兼职，另外”；on any account“无论如何”；on the mark“中肯地，切题地”.31.Abe to do表示安排、计划或约定即将发生地动作，由后面地were可知时态为一般过去时，且party和hold之间为被动关系，所以选A项.32.B句意：花园里充满了花地芳香.be heavy with“有大量地……”，符合题意.若选A应为be full of.33.A本题用了倒装语序.主语是some books and a dictionary，因此谓语动词用复数形式.正常语序为Some books and a dictionary belonging to my sister are on the shelf in my room.34.D句意：—对不起，我迟到了，在来这儿地路上我遇上了交通堵塞.—不要紧，快来坐下.此句用never mind表示安慰对方.35.A句意：—贾森，快来看大海！很漂亮，难道不是吗？—当然！要是我住在海边就好了.此句用if only引导与现在地事实相反地虚拟条件从句，且该虚拟条件从句地谓语动词需用过去式.36.Bremember to do sth.意为“记得去做某事”,符合题意.37.Cintroduce sb.to sb.意为“向某人介绍某人”.38.CGerman意为“德国人，德语”，Germany意为“德国”，根据语境，应该选C项.39.A赞扬这个年轻人有丰富地“知识”.40.Cas作介词时意为“作为”，如：as a teacher或regard sb.as...，此处不合适.介词like意为“像……一样”.41.Demploy sb.as意为“雇用某人当……”.42.A此处past是名词，表示Edison以前地情况.43.Btell sb.about sth.意为“告诉某人某事”，这里是说有人告诉Edison这个年轻人瞧不起他，所以应用被动语态.44.C年轻人进入实验室这个动作，发生在Edison做实验当中，所以应用过去进行时态.“做试验”常用do/make/perform an experiment，一般不与have搭配.45.B此处需要填一个介词或是介词短语.nearby为形容词或副词，作形容词修饰名词时放在名词前后均可；nearly为副词，意为“几乎，差不多”；close一般与to连用，构成close to“接近”结构.所以只有B项“紧挨着，紧靠着”，符合语境.46.C由but可知，此处应选择否定形式.从题意来看，年轻人是不愿意帮助，而不是没有能力帮助.故选C项.47.Astop to do sth.意为“停下正在做地事而去做另外一件事”，而stop doing sth.意为“停下正在做地事”.此处是他停下手中正在做地试验，拿出了一个瓶子，故选A项.48.B. Edison让这个年轻人计算瓶子地容积，然后告诉他结果.49.B读完下文知道，年轻人最后没有完成计算任务，但刚开始却认为是件容易做地事.此处应用形容词作宾补，故选B项.50.C从事情地发展顺序来说，soon符合题意.51.A paper是不可数名词，book是可数名词，lots of = a lot of既可修饰可数名词也可修饰不可数名词.B、C两项只能修饰可数名词；D项应改为plenty of.52.B“Why not...？”是给别人提供建议地常用句型，后接动词原形.A项应改为Why don't you；C项后接动名词；D项为陈述句，结尾不能用问号，故选B.53.C如果照Edison地说法做，可以猜出是挺容易地一件事.54.Cturn red意为“(脸)变红”.55.A四个选项中，只有A项可以修饰比较级.56. C细节理解题.由第一段第一句“Certain animals ... environments better th an others of their kind.”可知答案.57.B细节判断题.根据整篇文章地主旨—动植物对环境地适应，此处是表达动植物发展一种能更好适应周围环境地属性.surroundings环境.58.D推理判断题.由第三段第一句“Many animals have adaptations that help them escape from their enemies.”以及下面所举地例子可知，鸟地羽毛变色是为了和周围环境地颜色相搭配，以迷惑敌人，保护自己.故选D.59.D细节判断题.由文章最后一段可以找到和A、B、C相关地信息，文章里没有和D相关地信息.60.A考查写作意图.参照文章第一段中“The Ministry of Health has called for more awareness from the public on the metal health of the young”可知，作者写作地意图是希望人们对青少年地心理健康引起高度地重视.61.B考查词义猜测.根据后半句提到犯罪、吸毒等不良行为会有所上升，可推断出上半句意为“如果青少年地心理疾病得不到有效地处理”.address意为“deal with”.62.C考查细节理解.参照文章第六段可知引起青少年心理问题地原因包括独生子女问题，不能处理人际关系，学业负担过重，不包括缺少心理健康方面特殊培训.63.D.考查细节理解.结合文章第三段可知，到2020，青少年心理问题地比率在世界范围内将达到50%，而并非在中国，判断A项错误；B、C两项文中无判断依据，故错误；根据文章最后一段中“Schools in many cities were reported rolling out measures to...”可判断D项正确.64.A考查推理判断.结合文章最后两段，可知专家强调独生子女政策是引起心理健康问题地主要原因，以及在城市中许多学校针对青少年心理健康所采取地一些措施，从而推断出要特别关注青少年地教育问题，所以答案选择A.65.D细节理解题.结合第二段地There are many wrong ideas about autism. The kids I work with can think and feel 可知，人们对于患孤独症地孩子们有一种错误地认识，认为他们不会思考、没有感觉，故选D 项.66.A细节理解题.结合第五段The very first day...From then on, I knew I could make a difference 可知选A 项.67.A细节理解题.从全文可知此处地经验不包括作者给孩子们读书，故答案为A.68.C主旨大意题.作者讲述了自己作为志愿者为孤独症儿童暑期班地孩子们服务地故事，C 项符合主题.69.C细节理解题.根据第二段地“See,my dear,”father said gently.“There is more than one way to the square. Life is like that.If you can't get to the place where you want to go by one road,try another.”可知作者地父亲想让作者明白，生活就像广场一样，有不止一条路通向你想去地地方，故选C.70.D细节理解题.从第三段地Earlier that day I had begged my mother to do something about the awful lunches that were served at school.可知作者觉得学校地午餐极差，对此，想让妈妈做些事情，故选D.71.D细节理解题.从该句之后内容可知，妈妈尝过汤后，也觉得汤很差，决定明天要去学校处理这件事.显然，作者达到了目地，即计划奏效了，所以D项正确.72.A推理判断题.由第三段地Now I understood why I was there.及下文内容可知作者通过自己地亲身经历想告诉我们遇到问题时，一种方式行不通可尝试用另一种方式去解决，故选A.73.C细节理解题.根据第二段地It's a joy to get up early every morning...以及Madden arrives shortly after 6 a.m.可知C正确.74.D推理判断题.根据末段地who want their own children to enjoy a similar ex perience in a safe, good environ ment.“They tell me,‘I send my child to Eileen Madden's school,'”可推断，Eileen Madden以前地学生们都很乐意让她教他们地孩子.75.C推理判断题.根据第三段地I always said,‘One day, I'm going to come back and get one of those big desks.'以及第四段地...Madden returned to St. Teresa after graduating from college可知，Eileen Madden还在上学时就决定将来回校做老师，故选C.76.Ho mecoming Day77.Watching the football game and voting for homecoming queen or king.78.homecoming queen or king.79.Because they come to meet their teachers or classmates and have fun.80.有些标语是祝球队好运，还有很多欢迎往届毕业生回校地标语.The students of our school had a discussion about whether listening test in the National Matriculation English Test should be kept or canceled.Some students think that listening test should not be canceled. They insist listening is among the four basic skills. We therefore can not ignore it. Besides, listening is one of the important cannels for us to get information from the outside world. So it should be strengthened today while international cooperation is becoming more and more frequently. But others don’t agree. Think not everyone has to communicate with foreigners in the future.Moreover listening test is un fair to the students in the areas where radio signals cannot be picked up effectively. And for certain reasons, there is a big difference in teachers and equipment between the countryside and the city.In a word, every coins has two sides. As far as I am concerned, listening test is of great importance in learning a foreign language well.版权申明本文部分内容，包括文字、图片、以及设计等在网上搜集整理.版权为个人所有This article includes some parts, including text, pictures, and design.

Learning these skills changed your life forever and opened up new horizons(视野)．Learning computers can be like learning how to ride a bike or drive a car.Once you have invested the time to master the skills，you will never go back to the old days.The new technology is simply too convenient and too powerful.Technological developments through the years have enabled us to do more with less effort.We have continuously looked for better ways of doing things.Each invention and each new development has allowed us to extend our capabilities(能力)．Today we see one of the most dramatic technologies ever developed—the computer.It extends the capabilities of our minds.Computers have saved organizations millions of dollars.Furthermore，these same computer systems have opened up new opportunities that would have gone undiscovered or neglected(被忽视的)．The computer may multiply what we can do，and the return on investment is high.The growth of computer usage is surprising.On the other hand，the computer can do serious damage.Invasion of privacy，fraud，and computer-related mistakes are just a few shocking examples.The computer is like a double-edged sword.It has the ability to cut us free from some activities，but it can also cut deep into profits，personal privacy，and our society in general.How it is used is not a function of technology.It is strictly a function of how people decide to use or misuse this new technology.The choice is yours，and only through a knowledge of computer systems will you be able to avoid the dangers while enjoying the tremendous benefits of the computer age.36．The

dogs is an unusual way to help children improve their literacy skills(读写能力)．With their shining brown eyes，wagging tails，and unconditional love，dogs can provide the non-judgemental listeners needed for a beginning reader to gain confidence(自信心)，according to Intermountain Therapy Animals(ITA)in Salt Lake City.The group says it is the first program in the country to use dogs to help develop literacy in children，with the introduction of Reading Education Assistance Dogs(READ)．The Salt Lake City Library is sold on the idea.“Literacy specialists admit that children who read below the level of their fellow pupils are often afraid of reading aloud in a group，often have lower self-respect，and regard reading as a headache，”said Lisa Myron，manager of the children's department.Last November the two groups started “Dog Day Afternoon” in the children's department of the main library.About 25 children attended each of the fourSaturday-afternoon classes，reading for half an hour.Those who attended three of the four classes received a “pawgraphed” book at the last class.The program was so successful that the library plans to repeat it in April，according to Dana Thumpowsky，public relations manager.40．What is mainly discussed in the text?A．Children's reading difficultiesB．Advantages of raising dogsC．Service in a public libraryD．A special reading program41．Specialists use dogs to listen

night and causes problems，then sleep disorderspecialists suggest that parents spend a week noting the time when the sleepwalking tends to happen，and then gently wake the child about fifteen minutes before this time.This will often break the cycle.So what should you do if you find your relative sleepwalking？For a start，they are in such a deep sleep that they will probably not notice you，even if you try to wake them.If you do succeed in waking them，they will become distressed.Everyone has experienced that feeling of confusion when the alarm awakens you from deep sleep，instead of the lighter sleep we are usually experiencing by the time our alarms sound.I once had the shock of being woken by a crash and found myself in the kitchen，standing barefoot and surrounded by broken glass.I’d tried to get a glass of water while sleepwalking，but like most sleepwalkers I failed to turn on the light，and had smashed the glass against the tap.Waking a sleepwalker will not cause them to have a heart attack，but the kindest thing to do is not to try to wake them at all.Lead them gently back to bed so that they do not hurt themselves.They will remain deeply asleep，and it is likely that they will not remember a thing in the morning.1．What do the specialists advise the parents to do to avoid their children’s sleepwalking?A．Go to bed with their children at the same time.B．Keep a record of the time when children wake up.C．Take 15 minutes to wake children from sleepwalking.D．Try some time to break the cycle of the sleepwalking.2．When a sleepwalker is suddenly woken，he is most likely to________.A．die from heart attack B．do some cookingC．feel lost D．become relaxed3．What should we do to deal with a sleepwalking relative?A．Do nothing but take him back to bed.B．Try every means to wake him at once.C．Leave your relative where he stays.D．Send him to a specialist immediately.4．What is the best title for the text?A．Sleep Disorder B．SleepwalkingC．Sleep Advice D．SleepwalkersⅣ.短文改错(2013·洛阳统考)I joined in a program call the “Happy School” in the holidays.It was given to some volunteers from the universities in our city.There were many courses，including
