Word文档，精心制作，可任意编辑Unit 1 Living wellⅠ.阅读理解(2018广东惠州高三一调,B)When I was a boy we used to live across the road from a big hill with huge oak trees growing on it. When winter arrived, thick, heavy snow would fall, and my two brothers would grab their sleds and head for the hill for a day of fun. I remember watching them with envy because I was still too small to go sledding. Finally, one winter I was considered old enough and joined my brothers as they carried their sleds to the hill and prepared to ride down it.During the first few trips I rode with one of my brothers and had the time of my life. It was so exhilarating when the wind whipped across my face as I flew down the hillside on the wooden sled. Near the end of the day, I was overjoyed when my brothers decided to let me try riding the sled all by myself. I climbed on it full of excitement and lay on my stomach. Then with one big push my brothers sent me down to the snowy hillside. I was doing pretty well until I hit an old stump hidden in the snow and went off course, straight towards one of those big oak trees. My heart pounded in my chest and I could hear myself screaming. At the last possible second I rolled off and the sled crashed into the tree. I could hear my brothers running down the hill yelling, “You have to steer!You have to steer!”Sadly, that wasn’t the last time I failed to steer when some obstacle knocked me off course in my life. Many times problems, troubles and my own failures have sent me crashing into the trees of anger, frustration, and despair. I am still learning that life isn’t always safe sledding. I am still learning that it is up to me to steer myself back to love, back to kindness, back to goodness, and back to God.Life is a trip, but no one ever said it was a smooth ride. Steer well then. Steer straight. Steer your soul towards the light and the love we are all meant for.1.What do we know about the author when he was very young?A.He lived on a big hill with huge oak trees on it.B.He was frightened to go sledding with his brothers.C.He longed to go sledding with his brothers.D.He carried his brothers’ sleds as they went sledding.2.Which of the following can replace the underlined word “exhilarating” in Paragraph 2?A.Delightful.B.Terrifying.C.Ordinary.D.Violent.3.Why did the author fall off his sled?A.Because his sled crashed into an oak tree.B.Because he lost control of his sled.C.Because his brothers pushed it so hard.D.Because the hillside was snowy.4.What does the author mean to tell us?A.Losing control of a sled can be dangerous.B.Courage and determination can change one’s life.C.Life can be controlled by ourselves.D.Life is a mystery full of coincidences.Ⅱ.七选五(2018安徽高中十校联盟高三摸底)Johannes Gutenberg was chosen to be the most important figure of the past millennium(一千年)by the media. You may not be familiar with him. 1 Gutenbergis praised for having invented the printing press and therefore preparing the way for printing books.He was born into a wealthy family in the city of Mainz, Germany. In 1428, he moved to Strasbourg and lived there for almost 20 years. 2Gutenberg used his skills in metalwork for the mass production of books. 3 That means that each copy of the Catholic Bible and all of its 73 books were painstakingly handwritten by penmen. Gutenberg fashioned a font of over 300 characters, far larger than the fonts of today. To make this possible, he invented the variable-width mold(模具)and perfected the mixture of materials used by printers.4 Between 1450 and 1455, while preparing to publish a large Latin Bible, Gutenberg is thought to have printed a number of smaller books, a calendar and so on.The invention of the printing press changed the way information was delivered. 5Even today in the computer age, we rely heavily on the printed word or text for information, and for the pleasure of reading literature.A.Gutenberg made the world a much richer place.B.But he has certainly influenced your life in some ways.C.Gutenberg’s idea was the greatest.D.In 1450,Gutenberg was back in Mainz, working on printing press.E.This invention was also responsible for educating the masses worldwide.F.Before the spread of Gutenberg’s idea, literature was primarily handwritten.G.It was in Strasbourg that he probably made his first experiment with moveable type.Ⅲ.完形填空When I opened the box at my 12th birthday party, I couldn’t believe my eyes.I had really gotten a cell phone!As soon as I got to my 1 the next morning I 2 off my phone and asked everyone for their 3 .It felt like I didn’t even 4 in that class any more. I wouldn’t pay much attention to the teachers because I was too busy on my 5 . Luckily I didn’t get 6 using it. I was pretty 7 that the teacher didn’t 8 that I stopped paying attention to her 9 a week later we took a test and I failed. To make matters 10 , my mom had to 11 the paper.It was hard to show my mom the 12 . She was used to seeing A’s and B’s on my tests. Well, eventually, I showed her and she couldn’t 13 it. She was angry but most of all, she was disappointed.Weeks passed and my parents started to 14 the fact that I had a phone. They would say, “We have noticed that you never pay attention to us. It’s like you have your own little 15 now and we don’t communicate as much as before.”I acted like they were wrong, but then I started to wonder if it was true that I was spending too much 16 on the phone.A week later I tried 17 a whole day without a cell phone and it didn’t go that badly. I had so much 18 because I was actually spending time with my family and paying attention to them. From that day, I had a different point of view towards cell phones.Phones really take you away from the rest of the world. I’m not saying that phones are 19 and you should not use them, but you do have to spare some time to spend with your family and should not get 20 with your phone all day. My phone took away time from my homework and from my family. It also affected my grades.I will keep using my phone, but I will have it under better control.1.A.office B.school C.store D.home2.A.took B.put C.turned D.showed3.A.number C.help D.addresse B.hand C.give D.exist5.A.job B.test C.phone D.desk6.A.caught B.allowed C.troubled D.appreciated7.A.proud B.doubtful C.sure D.angry8.A.mention B.notice C.prevent D.punish9.A.until B.before C.though D.because10.A.clearer B.easier C.worse D.better11.A.read B.sign C.do D.make12.A.box B.book C.homework D.paper13.A.believe B.receive C.see D.achieve14.A.ignore B.dislike C.accept D.enjoy15.A.secret B.idea C.world D.dream16.A.time B.force C.money D.control17.A.studying B.working C.going D.thinking18.A.trouble B.worry C.fun D.improvement19.A.good B.bad C.necessary eful20.A.interested B.pleased C.annoyed D.stuck答案精解精析Ⅰ.阅读理解[语篇解读] 本文主要讲了作者小时候从一次乘雪橇的经历中学到一个人生道理,那就是学会掌控。

Unit 1 Living well一、阅读理解Kanda really doesn't like to walk alone.The scientist from a research institute of intelligent robots finds the experience so boring that he'd rather drive—even though he lives close to his lab and knows that walking is healthy.“I enjoy walking with someone，like with my wife，with my daughter，” Kanda said.“But they are not always available.”So Kanda，who specializes in human­like bots，developed a robotic walking partner that could make small talk based on its surroundings，which，he hopes，might motivate people to get out and exercise more.The bot rests on a person's shoulder like a boxy parrot.It weighs about a pound and a half and sits roughly 8.5 inches high，and is 3.5 inches wide and 10 inches long.A microphone，a speaker，and an internal camera allow it to communicate.It's even equipped with a smile.Kanda and his team collected video from five different locations，including a garden and a shopping mall，and created a dataset of small talk topics related to each location.Then they programmed the robot to associate visual cues with specific topics.A special speech software provided the robot with a voice.Near a group of parked cars，for example，it might say，“In a big parking lot，sometimes I forget where I parked.”They tested the robot on 15 volunteers,10 males and 5 females，who were paid and averaged about 26 years old.“Have you ever blown a puff of dandelion(蒲公英)seeds into the air？” The robot asked a participant，who smiled and responded，“Yes, I often did that when I was a child.”Although several participants noted the robot's weight，Kanda wassurprised that no one considered the experience strange or funny.“I guess people enjoy new technologies，” he said.Just like a human partner，Kanda's bot isn't perfect.It's not able to go for walks in heavy rain and，while the robot can make expressions，it can't really hold a conversation，about which Kanda is most worried.Despite its limits，Kanda was comforted by the bot's presence.“I felt a kind of sense of being with someone，”he said，“particularly when it spoke.”1．Why does Kanda have the idea of developing a robotic walking partner?A．Because he wants someone to accompany him while walking.B．Because he has never developed a robot like a parrot.C．Because his family are unwilling to walk with him.D．Because he is crazy about developing robots.2．What characteristic does the robot have?A．It can “speak” and “see”．B．It can walk like a human being.C．It can communicate with people freely.D．It is much more humorous than a real person.3．What is necessary for the robot to function?A．A small size. B．A boxy shape.C．A human partner. D．A speech software.4．What is Kanda most likely to do about his robot next?A．To make it more convenient to carry.B．To improve its conversational skills.C．To enable it to walk in heavy rain.D．To better its sound system.【解题导语】本文主要介绍了新研发的陪人散步的机器人。

Unit 1 Living well李仕才***阅读理解。

For many people，being on the job might just sound like a picnic compared to a day at home filled with housework，meals and childcare.Even for those with a happy family life，home can sometimes feel more taxing than work.In a new study，researchers at Penn State University found significantly and consistently lower levels of cortisol(皮质醇) released in response to stress，in a majority of subjects when they were at work compared to when they were at home.This was true for both men and women，and parents and people without children.Both men and women showed less stress at work.But women were more likely to report feeling happier there.Men were more likely to feel happier at home.Experts say there are other reasons why work is less s tressful than home for many.“Paid work is more valued in society，” says Sarah Damaske, the lead researcher on the study.“Household work is boring and not particularly rewarding.”We get better at our job with time and the increased competence means less stress and more rewards，Yet none of us，no matter how long we've been doing it，ever truly feels like an expert at parenting or even at marriage.The support and friendship of co­workers also offer stress relief.At home，meanwhile，stress spreads and accumulates quickly.“That's the reason why most housewives wish they were the bread earners，” Dr.Damaske says.Much of the advice to families and couples includes the warning to leave work stress at the office and even to change our mindset from work to home，for example，a walk around the block.The recent findings，though，suggest our home life，not our attitude，might be due for some change.1．Which of the following can replace the underlined word “taxing”？A．stressful B．cheerfulC．worthwhile D．rewarding2．What did the research in the second paragraph prove?A．Men felt better at home.B．Women felt they had less time.C．Women were easier to feel happier.D．Most people felt more stress at home.3．What do most people think of work at the office?A．It is competitive.B．It improves ability.C．It can't relieve stress.D．It doesn't always pay off.4．According to the recent findings，what should we change to solve the problem mentioned?A．Our attitude. D．Our mindset.C．Our home life. D．Our working style.【解题导语】本文主要介绍了一项研究，该研究表明越来越多的人认为上班比在家做家务、做饭和带孩子更轻松一些。
