The flight had been delayed by a few hours so it felt good to be so close to take­off. I had my iPod in place and a new book to read. Then, over the loudspeaker came the pilot’s voice：“The ground crew has found a metal instrument in one tire. We regret that we must cancel this flight.”The passengers’reactions that announcement led to were interesting. One man close to me began to argue with a flight attendant. A couple in another row complained loudly. A businessman in a black suit actually kicked the seat in front ofhim. Yet some passengers responded differently. An elderly gentleman smiled as he helped others take their bags down from the overhead compartments. A teenager, rather than trying to rush off the plane like most of the other passengers，stopped to help a woman with a disability. The lady sitting next to me laughed and said：“Hey, it’s not the end of the world，”before she made a call to her kids and shared her adventure with them. The wisest among us have a remarkable ability to maintain grounded when times get tough.No life is perfect; mine certainly isn’t. We all must face challenges, both large and small. You and I have the power to choose to rise above the external circum-stances. We always have the choice to be strong and kind when things fall apart.That’s grace under pressure. My seatmate was right—things could have been so much worse. Anyway, I am safe. I have my health. I have two wonderful children. I have work I love and so much to be grateful for. Sure I now have to wait a few hours to catch the next flight home.1．What caused the passengers’ different reactions?A．The loudspeaker. B．The delay of the flight.C．The ground crew’s fault. D．The pilot’s announcement.2．Who turned his anger on the seat?A．The teenager helping the disabled. B．The old man taking bags down. C．The man in a dark suit. D．The man close to the author.3．What did the woman sitting next to the author do?A．She assisted a disabled woman.B．She made a phone call to her family.C．She helped others carry their luggage.D．She told moving stories to her children.4．What can we learn from the story?A．Our life is full of ups and downs.B．It is natural to be scared under pressure.C．We should help each other in times of difficulty.D．We should be positive and calm when life is hard.BParents on So uth Australia’s Aboriginal(澳大利亚土著的) lands may lose some of their financial aid if they do not send their children to school. The new rules draw wide concern.Mundine is Prime Minister Tony Abbott’s top advisor on issues concerning Aboriginals, native A ustralians. “Now, I know the government needs some necessary measures but I think punishing the parents is really the last choice. ”Mr. Mundine says the situation can be changed if the tribal leaders support education. “We need to work with parents and communities because we are making a huge cultural change here. ” But other officials say they believe the threat of stopping aid will force families to take education more seriously.The State of Southern Australia says it has special programs for Aboriginal children. The students work with their parents and teachers first to develop a personal learning plan and the public schools provide special workers to work individually with Aboriginal students. At the age of seven, Aboriginal students can join a program called Enter for Success designed to attract students to school. The students can choose which high school to attend and receive support in reaching the goals on their individual learning plans.The State of Western Australia also has special programs for Aboriginal and other ethnic(种族的) groups. The state operates a program called Focus Schools which centers on basic skills like reading, writing and counting. 67% of these public Focus Schools serve the students in 79 very rural areas. Most of them are primary schools. The Focus Schools program also includes 118 coaches working with students in 134 schools.5．Wh at’s the aim of the ne w regulations?A．To develop advanced education.B．To improve Aboriginal children’s school attendance.C．To get tribal chiefs to support education.D．To punish parents on South Australia’s Aboriginal lands.6．To change the situation, Mr. Mundine may not agree with________. A．cooperating with the parentsB．limiting the economic aid of the familiesC．winning the favor of the communitiesD．making a cultural change in the communities7．It is known from the statistics in the last paragraph that ________.A．the special program is a successB．the special program covers every area of AustraliaC．the government has tried to help with the Aboriginal educationD．the government has taken action to promote the elementary schools六、语法填空Hotel:Good afternoon.Welcome to the Grand Woodward Hotel.How may I help you?

2014-2015学年高中英语 Unit 3 Australia测试题新人教版选修9Class: Name: Marks: 满分（120）第一部分阅读理解(共两节，满分40分)第一节 (共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。

AOn my first job as a sports editor, I didn’t get a lot of fan mails, so I was su rprised to see a letter on my desk one morning. When I opened it, I read: “Sweet piece of writing on the Tigers. Keep up the good work.”It was signed (署名) by Don Wolfe, the sports editor. Because I was a green hand, his words could not have been more encouraging. I kept the letter in my desk drawer for a long time. Whenever I doubted I had the talent to be an editor, I would reread Don’s note and be confident again.Later, when I got to know him, I learned that Don had a habit of writing encouraging notes to people in all walks of life. “When I make others feel good about themselves,” he told me, “I feel good, too.”Why are encouraging note writers in such short supply? My guess is that many who shy away from the practice are too self-conscious. They are afraid they will be misunderstood. Also, writing takes time and it is far easier to pick up the phone. The disadvantage with phone calls, of course, is that they do not last. It is a matter of record, and our words in a note can be read more than once and treasured.So, who around you deserves a note of thanks or approval? A neighbor, your librarian, a relative, your mate, a teacher, or a doctor? Words such as “greatest”, “smartest”, “prettiest” make us all feel good. Even if your praise runs a little ahea d of reality, remember that expectations are often the parents of dreams realized.1. What might be the author’s purpose in writing the text?A. To express thanks to the sports editor.B. To tell us the power of encouraging notes.C. To explain how to write encouraging notes.D. To ask readers to give encouragement to others.2. Why did the sports editor write the author a letter?A. To comfort him.B. To give him a new task.C. To promote his business.D. To encourage him to work better.3. The author doesn’t suggest making a phone call because _____.A. it doesn’t lastB. it is quite directC. it can be recordedD. it is easier to misunderstand4. From the text, we can infer that _____.A. being a sports editor is not very interestingB. where there is a dream, there is a hopeC. Don Wolfe used to be a sportsmanD. people like to be praisedBMost of the energy we use now is made from “non-renewable” sources. The good news is we have plenty of alternatives–the wind, sun and water can provide “renewable (可再生的) energy” which will never run out and does not give off carbon dioxide and therefore is good for the environment.So, what would a world powered by nature look like? Let’s think about how your day might change.As you are woken up, the solar panels (太阳能电池板) on your roof would heat the water you bathe with. In the kitchen your mum would make breakfast with a kettle that could tell you just how much energy you are using, and where it’s coming from –maybe from solar panels too. As you and your family leave the house, a “Smart” energy meter (仪表) would be able to tell you the amount of energy your family has used so far.You would get in your family’s electric car, which would not give off any bad smoke. On your way to school, you would notice all the houses you pass have solar panels on their roofs and maybe a small wind turbine (风力涡轮机) if they were built on a hill, and some have water tanks collecting rain water to be reused. There would be no petrol stations, but you might see many other stations instead, where you could recharge (再充电) your car.Your school would also look different. Like your house, the roof would probably be covered with solar panels. Inside, the school would be heated by a biomass boiler (生物质锅炉), which burns recycled wood chips. A renewable cooling system in the school means that in the summer it will never get too warm!To make this renewable future possible, we need to think carefully about where our energy comes from and how we use it.5. What wouldn’t you see on the way to school according to the text?A. Petrol stations.B. Solar panels on the roofs.C. Small wind turbines.D. Water tanks collecting rain water.6. Which of the following best describes the world mentioned in the text?A. Healthy and safe.B. Convenient but unpractical.C. Energy-saving but too complex.D. Intelligent and free from pollution.7. Which might be the best title for the text?A. Life in the futureB. A world powered by natureC. The ways to preserve energyD. Renewable energy in the futureCIf you have ever wondered what Noah’ s Ark (诺亚方舟), the enormous boat that saved Noah, his family and two examples of every animal species on the earth, may have looked like, you are in lu ck. That’s because a Dutchman (荷兰人) has created a life-size replica (复制品).Johan Huibers says he was inspired to build a boat after he dreamt that his country was completely flooded! The carpenter began by creating a smaller version of what he likes to call Johan’s Ark in 2004. Not surprisingly, it was an instant hit with tourists. Encouraged by the success, he used the funds generated from ticket sales, and in 2009 recruited (雇用) his two children and some friends, to build a version of the same size as the one described in the Bible.What’s even more amazing is the detail that lies inside. Just like the real deal, Johan has built storage spaces at the bottom of the ship where food can be kept for long periods of time.

Australia－more than two hundred years old, a nation that is still growing.Its big cities lie on the southeastcoast, this is where most Australians live. Australians prefer to own their own houses, though some live in apartments. Australians are a suburban people. The suburbs surround the cities for many miles, and so efficient transport is of great importance. As the economy grows, so do its industries- a higher level of production, a wider range of products.The Australian works hard, but he likes his leisure. The climate makes outdoor activities the most popular.Canberra, the capital of Australia, is a planned modem city located inland. Australia is governed by a parliamentary democracy. The representatives of other countries have their embassies here. Australia wants to strengthen relations with her neighbors.Australia is a strange land, a land of vast expanses- fertile valleys, snow fields and deserts- also a land with unique animal, many that can not be found on any other continent in the world today.Much of the continent is dry, but man has utilized the land, made it productive, with its tools, with its technology. This is the driest continent of all, and water is a precious possession, more precious than all other natural resources. Large dams are built to collect the water, there to irrigate the fields of pastures and crops.But Australia is changing. The land of wool and wheat is now a land of large-scale industry and mining. The costs of developing the new mineral discoveries are enormous, but the rewards are great too.Australia — a young and developing nation. Australia — a nation that wants to communicate with its neighbors.56.Australia is an island located ______ of Asia and its big cities lie ____ of thecoast.A.to the south; on the southeastB.to the north;on the southwestC.to the east;on the northeastD.to the east; on the southwest57. We can infer from the passage that the Australian likes outdoor activities for the _____ climate.A.dull and wetB.fine and shinyC.gloomy and rainyD.wet and cold58.____ is the most precious source in Australia.A.Mineral resourceB.AnimalC.DesertD.Water59.Which of the following statements about Australia is wrong?A.Australians are a suburban peopleB.Australia is governed by a parliamentary democracy.C.Australia prefers to live in the downtown of big cities.D.Wool and wheat used to be the main products of Australia.BInfluenza (流行性感冒)has been with us a long, time. According to some Greek writers on medical history,the outbreak of 412 BC was of influenza. The same has been suggested of the sickness that swept through the Greek army attacking Syracuse in 395 BC. Flu is a disease that moves most quickly among people living in crowdedconditions, hence it is likely to attack armies.In April 1918, flu broke out among American troops stationed in France. It quickly spread through all the armies but caused relatively few deaths. Four months later, however, a second outbreak started which proved to be a killer. It killed not only the old and already sick but also healthy young adults. It went through every country in the world, only a few distant islands in the South Atlantic and the Pacific remaining untouched. Before the great outbreak ended, it had killed at least 15 million people. Medical science is still not certain what hit us in 1918. The virus of influenza (流感病毒) was not found until 1933, so all that today can be said about the 1918outbreak is the kind of antibodies it produced.The first big advance was also made in 1933, then a team of British doctors found the type A influenza virus. In 1940, a doctor of the United States found type B. Later type C was found, along with many subgroups of type A and B. Vaccines (疫苗) were prepared and used widely by the armies during the Second World War to prevent outbreaks.The flu virus proved trickier (奸诈) than most. A vaccine good against one type gave a protection against another. Indeed type A virus changes its nature so quickly that a perfectly good vaccine may lose its value because of the change. This increases the need for the speedy discovery of flu outbreaks, so that stocks(家畜) of the right vaccine can be prepared quickly after an outbreak. Starting such a warning system was one of the first things done by the World Health Organization.60.Why is influenza easier to attack armies?A.Because it moves very quickly.B.Because it spread through Greek army long ago .C.Because it spread through the crowded most quickly.D.Because an army moves more often61.How many types of influenza have been found excluding subgroups?A.One type.B.Two types.C.Three types.D.Four types62.How many people were killed in the flu outbreak of 1918?A.One million.B.Several million.C.Seven millionD.Fifteen million.63.Which of the following is true according to the passage you have just read?A.Before 1936 people didn’t know what caused influenza.B.A Group of American doctors first discovered the types of influenzaC.All kinds of vaccine can not prevent every kind of influenza virus.D.The earliest outbreak of disease mentioned happened in the year 412 BC.CIt is matter of common observation that although money incomes keep going up over years, we never seem to become much better off! Prices are rising continuously. This condition is named one of inflation〔通货膨胀〕;the money supply is becoming inflated so that each unit of it becomes less valuable. We have grown used in recent years to higher and higher rates of inflation. What could be bought ten years ago for one dollar now costs well over two dollars. Present indications (迹象) are that this rate of inflation is tending to rise rather than to fall. If in the real word our money incomes go up at the same rate as prices, one might think that inflation does not matter. But it does. When money is losing value it lacks one of the qualities of a good money—stability〔巩固性〕of value. It is no longer acceptable as a store of value; and it becomes unsuitable standard of deferred(延期的) payments. Nobody wants to hold a wasting asset (财产),so people try to get rid of money as quickly as possible. Inflation therefore stimulates (刺激) consumer spending, and prevents saving.64.Over the years, our incomes have been increasing, and we _______.A.seem to be well off at a quicker rateB.are actually no better, if not worse, in our financial conditionC.can afford to buy more of the things that we wantD.have managed to keep prices down65.Inflation is a situation in which ________.A.we can watch our money increase in is valueB.employment no longer becomes a problemC.people can always find better paying jobsD.money keeps losing its value66.If incomes and prices together, people might think that ________.A.there will be no more market fluctuations〔波动〕B.money will hold its valueC.inflation will remain to be a problemD.inflation causes no problem67.In a period of inflation, people are likely to _______.A.invest heavily on the stock marketB.save moneyC.hold on to money as a dependable assetD.spend money and not bother to saveDDon’t go to Kauai. Go to any of the other Hawaiian Islands --- Maui, Lanai,the Big Island --- but leave Kauai for us. The weather on Kauai is so unpredictable (不可预测的) that sometimes it rains all day --- in fact, it’s the second-wettest spot on the earth. Yes, there are giant double rainbows all the time, and the sunlight through the clouds is magical. But if you are not interested in these, go somewhere else. You just can’t control the nature on Kauai, and who wants to surrender (屈服) to the nature when you could be at a fine hotel, lying in a comfortable chair next to a swimming pool, with food served upon request?So what if Kauai produces surf champions the way Texas produces cowboys？Most of its 300 white-sand beaches are unmarked. Unless you connect with the local people, the hidden spots are hard to find. While Hanalei is the most beautiful town you’ve ever dreamed of, you can forget about discos and clubs. Worse, it doesn’t have one single four-star restaurant. What it does have is the original drive-through places where you pass by a rambutan tree (红毛丹树), and pick a piece of fruit.Shopping in Kauai? Forget it --- unless you are interested in shell necklaces and beautifully carved wood bowls. Kauai is not about pampering. It’s a bout going natural and finding the nature within you. It’s a do-it-yourself place that offers walking along the coast, diving and swimming in the Pacific Ocean, and lying on the beach.Don’t go to Kauai unless you have a lot of time, because there’s on ly one road, which can be slightly dull. It winds through the beautiful scenery of waterfalls, rivers flowing into the ocean, and taro (芋头) fields. You have no choice but to look at everything, because the speed limit is 35 m.p.h.If you’re not interested in color, don’t bother with Kauai, because that’s what you get --- red roads, blue oceans, and a hundred different shades of green. It’s like diving on land. Many people on Kauai believe that this is Lemuria --- a lost island in the Atlantic. Can you imagine? Those Hawaiians, surfers, New Agars, and people who love nature and beauty and want a different quality of life --- what do they know, anyway? Forget about it --- you’re not going to like it. Go somewhere else. Leave Kauai for us.68. After reading the text, we come to know that it is _____.A. a piece of shocking newsB. an exciting storyC. an interesting introductionD. a moving advertisement69. It can be learned from the text that _____.A. Kauai is an island near the Hawaiian IslandsB. Kauai is another name of the Hawaiian IslandsC. Kauai is one of the Hawaiian IslandsD. Kauai does not belong to the Hawaiian Islands70. In the writer’s real opinion, Kauai _____.A. is not worth visiting at allB. is well worth visitingC. is not a beautiful islandD. is a dangerous island71. Who would like to visit Kauai?A. Those who love nature.B. Those who love city life.C. Those who love the comfort in a fine hotel.D. Those who love going shopping.EPeople can be addicted to(沉溺于) different things — e.g.alcohol, drug,certainfoods, or even television. People who have such an addiction are compulsive(强迫的):they have a very powerful psychological need that they feel they must satisfy.According to psychologists,many people are compulsive spenders. They feel that theymust spend money. This compulsion, like most others, is impossible to explainreasonably. For compulsive spenders who buy on credit(以赊欠方式), charge accountsare even more exciting than money. In other words, compulsive spenders feel that withcredit, they can do anything. Their pleasure in spending large amounts is actuallygreater than the pleasure that they get from the things they buy.There is even a special psychology of bargain hunting. To save money, of course,most people look for sales, low prices, and discounts. Compulsive bargain hunters,however, often buy things that they don’t need just because theyare cheap. They want to believe that they are helping their budgets(预算), but theyare really playing an exciting game. When they can buy somethingfor less than other people, they feel that they are winning. Most people,experts claim,have two reasons for their behavior: a good reason for the things that they do andthe real reason.It is not only scientists, of course,who understand the psychology of spendinghabits, but also business people. Stores, companies, and advertisers use psychologyto increase business. They consider people’s needs for love,power, or influence, their basic values, their beliefs and opinions, and so on intheir advertising and sales methods. Psychologists often use amethod called “beh avior therapy(疗法)〞 to help individuals solve their personalityproblems. In the same way, they can help people who feel that they have problems with money.72. According to the psychologists, a compulsive spenderis one who spends largeamounts of money _____.A. and takes great pleasure from what he or she buysB. in order to satisfy his or her basic needs in lifeC. just to meet his or her strong psychological needD. and feels he or she is cheated73. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the text?A. People spend money for exactly the same reasonthat they need to buy things.B. Business people and advertisers can use the psychology of people’s spending habitsto increase sales.C. Business people understand the psychology ofcompulsive buying better thanscientists do.D. Compulsive bargain hunters do not have problems with money.74. What is the text mainly about?A. The psychology of money-spending habits.B. The habits of compulsive spenders.C. A special psychology of bargain hunting.D. The use of the psychology of spending habits in business.75. From the text we may safely conclude that compulsivespenders or compulsive bargainhunters _____.A. are really unreasonableB. need special treatmentC. are really beyond drugsD. can never get any help to solve their problems with money阅读表达阅读下面短文，然后用简洁的语言回答文后5个问题。
