beaches.CapeTribulaton,AustraliaCape Tribulaton is said to be unsafe due to its huge amount of dangerous animals.There are tons of jellyfish and it is not safe to swim near the mouths of the rivers because of crocodile warnings.Poisonous snakes and cassowaries have also been found.According to TheCairnsPost,a 46-year-old woman is believed to have been taken by a crocodile while swimming at Thornton beach,a beach in Cape Tribulaton.Gansbaai,SouthAfricaAlso called “Shark Alley”,this beach is known as the world of the great white sharks.It is so filled with sharks that they have actually

Maya Gabeira was nearly killed during a wipeout in .SnakeIsland,BrazilSnake Island,also known as Ilha de Queimada Grande,is home to the “world’s deadliest snake”—the golden lancehead viper.Itspoison

Greece.The girl was taken to a hospital in an emergency vehicle.Sounds of cheering could be heard from rescue workers and people watching nearby.Health Minister Fahrettin Koca identified the girl on

colleague Ahmet cried,” he told HaberTurk television.Ibrahim Topal,of the Humanit arian Relief Foundation said,“My colleague and I looked at each other like ‘Did you hear that,too?’ We listened again.There was a very weak voice saying something like ‘I’m here.’ Then we shut everything down,the machines,and started listening again.And th ere really was a voice.”Health ministry officials said the girl was in good condition but would be kept under observation.She asked for a special meal of meatballs and a yogurt drink on her way to the hospital,the state-operated Anadolu Agency reported.Another 3-year-old girl and a 14-year-old girl were also pulled out alive recently from collapsed buildings in Izmir,Turkey’s third-largest city.At least 111 people died in the

threatening the country’s uniqu e wildlife —from koalas to native birds to bees —and researchers fear that some species are being pushed to the brink of extinction.The fires have killed at least 26 people,burned thousands of homes and could shave as much as 0.4% of economic growth,according to some eore than 13,000 head of livestock have been killed by the fires in New South Wales state,where more than 20,000 square miles of land has been burned.The fires threaten to rage on into February—summer-time in Australia—or longer.Scientists say at least six species are in danger.“There’s great concern that these fires may have pushed species closer to extinction or potentially over,” said Deakin University wildlife ecologist Euan Ritchie.“We won’t know until we get into the areas,” he said.Some scientists are concerned about a metallic-green bee that lives exclusively in areas that have been ravaged by fire,along Australia’s east coast and on Kangaroo Island in thesouth.Researchers suspect the green carpenter bee has been wiped out on Kangaroo Island.“The species is likely to be in terrible conditions,as all of its habitat has now either burnt or is threatened by fire,” said Katja Hogendoorn,a bee expert at the University of Adelaide,who has been working for half a decade to preserve the population of green carpenter bees on Kangaroo Island.8.What can we learn from paragraph 1?A.The wildlife is well protected in Australia.B.The fires also damage Australian economy.C.The bush fires have lasted for a long time.D.The bush fires are frequent in Australia.9.How might Euan Ritchie feel about ecological losses?A.Curious.B.Concerned.C.Unexpected.D.Surprised.10.Why are scientists worried about the metallic-green bee?A.It will all be burnt to death.B.It is gradually dying out.C.It might lose its natural home.D.It will move to other places.11.Where might you find this text?A.In a storybook.B.In a textbook.C.In a newspaper.D.In a traveling guide.D(贵州铜仁高一期末)With heavy rain and strong winds,Cyclone(飓风) Amphan hit the coast of India and Bangladesh on a Wednesday afternoon,destroying homes and other buildings,after forcing millions to leave home.The storm broke out earlier in the week in the Bay of Bengal,the first “super cyclone” to break there since 1999.Though the storm wasn’t as stron g as it had been when it landed,Cyclone Amphan still arrived with a force the same as a Category 3 storm(3级风暴).With wind speed of 105 miles an hour,Amphan went through villages along the coast.Most people on the coast live in very simple houses.The cyclone destroyed many of these houses,blowing the roofs off and washing the walls away.Amphan also blew down trees and damaged electricity,telephone and Internet lines in many places along its path.The cyclone also caused huge and sudden rises in the sea level,known as “storm surges”.These surges were as high as 16 feet and pushed seawater in,ruining houses and farms along the way.Although the cyclone had terrible power,it might not have been as deadly as people first feared.That’s mainly because governments took action before the cyclone hit.The governments in both India and Bangladesh were using schools as shelters.Several of the shelters were used before for patients with COVID-19.More shelters were needed than usual,because the governments were trying to fill the shelters only half full to allow enough space between people.Because of the disease,many people didn’t want to depart from their homes.This was especially true in India.Part of the reason was fear of catching the disease,but it was also because many people had lost so much during the country’s lockdown(封锁).12.What do we know about Cyclone Amphan?A.It followed a Category 3 storm.B.It slowed down when it landed.C.It wasn’t as strong as a Category 3 storm.D.It was the strongest ever in the Bay of Bengal.13.What is the third paragraph mainly about?A.The causes of Cyclone Amphan.B.The places Cyclone Amphan hit.C.The damage caused by Cyclone Amphan.D.The influence of Cyclone Amphan on the sea.14.What did the governments do to deal with Cyclone Amphan?A.They paid special attention to patients.B.They advised people to keep enough space.C.They built many new shelters before it hit.D.They moved many people to safety before it hit.15.Which can replace the underlined part “depart from” in the l ast paragraph?A.Leave.B.Share.C.Sell.D.Build.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

C onservative.CIf you want to succeed in life,you need to express the proper body language,with or without having to say anything else.You will certainly notice a whole new reaction from people if you use the power of body language.Relax your shoulders,keep your hands at your sides(never inside your pockets) and breathe slowly.Have a wann,welcoming facial expression as if you look fonvard to communicating.Depending on the situation,you may smile when appropriate.Face the other person or your audience and keep eye contact as much as possible throughout the talk.Nodding and tilting（倾斜）your head closer can show that you are listening Do not fold（交叉）your arms,look down at the floor or put your hands in your pockets.These can show that you are uninterested.If you have any comments,you can show them in negative but respectful ways like raising your eyebrowsA lot of your body language can show how confident,i n terested,bored,angry or nervous you are.Keeping your head up throughout the entire conversation can show that you are very much into the conversation at hand.You may feel f r ee to use a few hand gestures to emphasize（强调）a point.If you're� things,it's better to use each of your fmgers as you mention each item to help your audience keep track.Pacing will help you create more ground if you have a larger crowd to communicate with.It will also show confidence on your part as you think of more things to sayBe very careful when touching the other person since you are crossing the boundaries（界限）of body language through actual contact.Remember that in !b ody language,it is your body that does the tal血g for you8.According to the text,if you find a listener raising his eyebrows,he may .A.try to show his anger8.want to give his own opinionC.not understand what you sayD.want to prove his confidence9.The underlined word "enumerating" in paragraph 6 may mean ""A.consideringB.judgingC.numberingD.discussing10.What's the author's suggestion if you have a larger crowd to communicate with?A.To walk at a slow pace.B.To shake hands with every person.C.To look down at the floor.D.To fold your arms.11.What is the most suitable title for the text?A.The Power of Body LanguageB.The Attraction of Body LanguageC.The Origin of Body LanguageD.The Understanding of Body LanguageDIii a world where nearly 6 million fingerprint records of government employees are stolen in one computer hack（非法入侵），and here m.illions of people are victims of identity theft every year,the next step in cybersecurity may well be mapping your brainResearchers at Binghamton University,State University of New York are worki11g on a biometric（生物特征识别的）system that records how your brain reacts to certain images.With alittle more polishing,the scientists'lli:l!in could become the way you get into a safe depositbox,your office or past scanners at the airport.It could replace the password for your onlineban血g,your emai I or your social media accounts.They started their project by measuring the brain waves of 30 subjects.The subjects werefitted with a cap that had 30 electrodes（电极）attached to it,and then shown various images and symbols-celebrity faces, w ords,pictures of food一on a computer screen in 200-millisecond bursts.The brain's reaction was recorded.The idea is that every time a person needs to use a "password",he or she goes through the same procedure,and the results are matched with their first-time reaction.If the "brainpr血“is compromis e d一like what happened with the fingerpri.Jit record s一th e n the system is mere I y reset by running another set of images and collecting a different set of brai.J1 waves."Even if that was stolen,you could just cancel it and record one to something else",says professor Laszlo Laszlo and her team have shown that their system can be l 00 percent accurate.So one of the more difficult parts of making the system practical already has been overcome.Now,they're spending much time recordi.J1g accurate brainprints with as few as three electrodes,which could make recordi.J1g in the future as easy as weari.J1g a pair of special glasses.They're also working with cheaper materials and different methods to see if they can bring the cost down12.What does the underli.J1ed word "brainchild" in paragraph 2 refer to?A.The brai.J1 function.B.The fingerpriJlt recordC.The biometric systemD.The onli.J1e password.13.Why were the images and symbols shown to the subjects?A.To create their brainpri11ts.B.To check the brain's reaction.C.To match brainprints with picturesD.To connect brai.J1waves to electrodes.14.What will happen when a brainprint fails?A.A spare one will be ready beforehand8.A new one will be set againC.The users'security will be leaked.D.The fingerprint record will replace it15.What are the researchers doing with the programme now?A.Making it user-friendly.B.Improving its accuracyC.Recording more brai.J1printsD.Iiicreasing the number of electrodes.第二节（共5小题，每小题2.5分，满分l25分阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以埴入空白处的最佳选项。

人教版（2019）高中英语必修第一册Unit4单元测试（2）一、阅读理解(共3题；共20分)1．（6分）阅读理解Recently,we've been talking about how we need better teachers.There's no doubt that a great teacher can help in a student's achievement but here's what some new studies are also showing:We need better parents.Every three years,the organization called anizes exams as part of the Program for International Student Assessment(评估),or PISA,which tests15-year-olds on their abilities to solve real problems.America's15-year-olds have not done as well as students in Singapore,Finland and Shanghai in the PISA exams.To better understand the reasons,the PISA team,starting with four countries in2006,and then adding14more in2009,went to the parents of5,000students.They interviewed them about how they raised their kids and then compared it with the test results for each of those years.Two weeks ago,the PISA team published the main finding of its study.15-year-olds whose parents often read books with them during their first year of primary school get much higher scores in PISA than students whose parents don't often read with them or not at all.Parents' concern for their children is strongly connected with better results in PISA.According to Schleicher,the leader of the team,just asking your children how their school day was and showing great interest in their learning can help a lot.It is something every parent can do,no matter what their education level is.The study found that getting parents concerned about their children's learning at home is more powerful than parents attending parent-teacher meetings,volunteering in classrooms,taking part in money-raising,and showing up at back-to-school nights.To be sure,nothing can replace a good teacher.But let's stop putting the whole responsibility on teachers.We also need better parents.Better parents can make teaching more effective(有效的).（1）（2分）In how many countries was the study done in2009?A．4.B．14.C．18.D．40.（2）（2分）It is suggested in the study that parents should.A．try to search for better teachersB．put the whole duty on teachersC．care about their children's school lifeD．ask their children to read more books（3）（2分）What's the best title for the passage?A．The Need for Better Parents B．The Importance of TeachersC．A Study by the PISA Team D．An Interview with Parents2．（6分）阅读理解We often hear stories of animals rescuing people.But now someone has managed to return the favor.The event took place one snowy January morning.Thomas Smith was walking his dog,Jack,in the park."As I was walking,I just saw Jack running onto the ice towards the ducks in the middle,and then he fell into the water and couldn't climb out,"said Smith.He realized he had no choice but to try and save his dog."Someone else told me the lake was only one-meter deep,but it was at least twice that.I had to break my way through the6-cm ice.Finally,I got Jack by the neck,and pulled him out.I don't think I have ever felt so cold by the time we got back to dry land.And when we got there,everyone was asking if Jack was okay-no one was particularly worried about me!"A neighbor,Julie Brown,saw it all happen."The dog went onto an icy lake.All of a sudden,it started to go under.There were crowds of people around,and they were all shouting and screaming.Before I knew it,the owner(Smith)was in the water forcing his way through the ice.I can't begin to imagine how cold it was.Everyone was very nervous,but he was as cool as a cucumber—he just crawled back out,put the dog on its lead,and went home."Many regard him as a hero,but Mr Smith is quite laidback about it."Most dog owners are the same as me.They would do what I did without a second thought.But in the future,I'm going to make sure he's on a lead near any icy ponds.Pets are members of our family.Would you do the same for them?"（1）（2分）What happened on a cold January morning?A．Mr Smith met Jack in the park.B．Mr Smith ran after Jack on the ice.C．Jack fell from the ice into the water.D．Jack played with the ducks in the water.（2）（2分）The underlined phrases"as cool as a cucumber"in Paragraph3means.A．relaxed B．proud C．shy D．brave（3）（2分）What is the best title of the passage?A．A Man's Pet Dog B．A Dog's Best FriendC．The Danger on the Icy Lake D．Suggestions for Pets'Owners3．（8分）阅读理解I owe my father a huge thank you!Sure,I need to thank him for all those years of paying my bills, fixing my bikes,and providing a shoulder to cry on.But this year I realized that his contributions to my childhood were much more than that.I grew up as Daddy's Little Girl.If I had a problem that needed fixing or a question that needed answering,he was the one I ran to.He helped me get through everything from math homework as a high school student to career choices as a young adult.He always expected that I do my best in whatever I did, and he believed I could succeed in anything I put my mind to.As a result,I learned to hold myself to those same standards.He always showed me unconditional love,which helped me learn to love myself.It was something I'd taken for granted until I realized from talking with my friends that they had no similar view of their self worth.Having fathers that didn't believe in them left them to grow up not believing in themselves.As I was growing up,my father also modeled how a woman should be lavished.He treated my mom with love and respect.As a result,I grew to expect nothing less than that from the men I dated and from the man I would eventually marry.Dad was a living picture of godliness(虔诚),honesty and responsibility.It was only recently that I realized what a deep effect fathers have on their daughters'lives.That is why I want to thank my dad for the godly example of love that he has been to me throughout my life.（1）（2分）From the second paragraph，the author thinks it is the most valuable that.

APhoenix, Arizona, the USA was struck by a big sandstorm(沙尘暴) recently. It was a huge dust storm that struck Phoenixa little after 7:00 p.m. local time.Arizona has sandstorms particularly during the monsoon(季风) season which usually starts from mid-June until the end of September. However, this was the biggest. The cloud of dust turned day into night. Some trees were downed and gardens were destroyed and it cut off the power of thousands of local people in the area, but luckily no death happened. A number of people's pools became dirty with dust. People who lived in Phoenix for more than 40 years said that this was the first time they had experienced this huge dust storm. It could greatly influence people's health.The big dust cloud started in Tucson traveling north across the desert. The huge storm ran up to 60 miles per hour. It was more than 100 miles wide and a mile high. Besides Phoenix and nearby cities, the storm also reached Yuma County in southwestern Arizona. It reduced the visibility(能见度) in these areas, putting off the flights at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport.The storm only takes place in Arizona, the Sahara Desert and areas of the Middle East, because of the dry environment and large amounts of sand. Because of the serious shortage of rain, there's a large possibility that the water is polluted because of the storm.1.In what season do sandstorms usually take place in Arizona?A.In fall and winter.B.In summer and fall.C.In winter and spring.D.In spring and summer.2.What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A.The storm.B.The wind.C.The desert.D.The state.3.Why was local people lucky after the big sandstorm happened?A.People's health was not influenced.B.It didn't do harm to people's gardens.C.All the local people in the area survived.D.The electricity was not affected at all.4.What can probably be the title of the passage?A.Phoenix, Arizona has more sandstormsB.Sandstorms do a great deal of harm to peopleC.We must do something to prevent sandstormsD.Phoenix, Arizona experienced a huge sandstormBA 9.0-magnitude earthquake off the Indonesian coast sent a wall of water racing toward Thailand, Malaysia and Sri Lanka. Lang was on the island of Phi Phi Don, just south of Phuket, Thailand, shopping on Main Street with her friend Rubina Wong, when suddenly everything changed. "People started running inland. From where we were, we could not see the beach so we had no idea what was going on," she said.Lang and Rubina started running inland in the same direction as everyone else, when she noticed water flooding into the island, but it was so strong and fast that she could no longer lift her feet to run. Rubina had gone down a side street. Lang never saw her alive again.Lang was stuck underwater between pieces of debris(碎片) with the surface just above her face. "The more I struggled(挣扎), the tighter I was stuck. I could not reach the surface. I thought I came here on my vacation to die, and then I got really annoyed," she said. "I must have blacked out because the next thing I remember is waking up underwater."The water was still and black. Lang looked up and could see that at the top, there was a small circle of light. She started swimming through the water and made it to the surface of the water. She pulled herself onto a floating door and could see that the whole island was flooded and a lot of buildings were gone. She could see a house not far away and a man on its roof. She encouraged herself to climb over the floating objects to the balcony(阳台) of the house. From there she saw the water start to slowly go back to the ocean.5.What was Lang doing when the tsunami happened?A.She was running in a race.B.She was playing on the beach.C.She was shopping in the street.D.She was looking for her friend.6.Why was Lang unable to run?A.There was a wall in the way.B.She feared she would get lost.C.She had to wait for her friend.D.The racing water was too powerful.7.What can we learn about Lang from Paragraph 3?A.She didn't want to struggle.B.She was trapped underwater.C.She didn't regret going on vacation.D.She kept awake all the time in the water.8.How did Lang manage to save herself?A.By calling for help.B.By hiding in a house.C.By climbing up a tall tree.D.By making use of floating objects.CWhat do you think of when you hear the word “drought”? Do you think of “dry” “hot” “dusty” “cracked(开裂的)earth” or even “no water”? If so, you’re on the right track!When some places are in drought, they may be dry, hot and dusty. Cracks may appear in the soil, and rivers, lakes, streams, and other sources of water may go dry. Other places in drought get some rain, but not as much as they usually receive during that season. Drought means that a place has less rain or snow than normal over a few months or even longer.Drought has many causes. It can be caused by not receiving rain or snow over a period of time. We learned in the discussions above about the water cycle and weather. The changes in the wind patterns that move clouds and moisture through the atmosphere can cause a place not to receive its normal amount of rain or snow over a long period of time.If you live in a place where most of the water you use comes from a river, a drought in your area can be caused by places upstream from you not receiving enough moisture. There would be less water in the river for you and other people who live along the river to use.People can also play a big role in a drought. If we use too much water during times of normal rainfall, we might not have enough water when a drought happens.9.What’s the purpose of Paragraph 1?A. To introduce the topic.B. To analyze the problem.C. To conclude the article.D. To put forward an argument.10.What will happen if a place is in drought?A. The weather will be dry, hot and windy.B. There won’t be any water left in rivers or lakes.C. There will be less rain or snow for quite a long time.D. The rainy season will be replaced by the snowy season.11.What’s the meaning of the underlined word “moisture” in Paragraph 3?A. Dust in the wind.B. Rain in the soil.C. Snow on the ground.D. Water in the air.12.What topics are discussed before the passage?A. The definition(定义) of drought.B. The water cycle and weather.C. The causes of drought.D. The influence of drought.DThe Horn of Africa was struck by billions of locusts(蝗虫). They flew through fields of crops at an amazing speed, killing crops in the process. The locusts crossed the Gulf of Aden and arrived in Somalia and Ethiopia. They were then found in Kenya and had become the worst disaster there in 70 years.The U.N. says the area is affected by lack of food, and it warns that the international community only has a small window of opportunity to prevent future disaster". "These things are always voracious," says Keith Cressman. A swarm(一大群) the size of Manhattan can, in a single day, eat the same amount of food as everyone in both New York and California, he says. Swarms of desert locusts more than three times the size of New York City have been seen in northeast Kenya.Experts know how to stop the locusts' spread, but say efforts have been prevented by a lack of resources because it's difficult to spray pesticide(喷洒农药) in conflict-racked(冲突肆虐的) places such as Somalia and Yemen. "We do have a chance to solve this problem in the bud, but that's not what we're doing at the moment," Mark Lowcock said. "We're running out of time."Desert locusts are known for their rapid reproduction and ability to move long distances with the wind. "This kind of insect has been around for a long time," Mark Lowcock said. "It has so many different survival ways...to just survive in some of the harshest conditions and remotest parts of the planet. But it has the great ability to take advantage of good conditions." It reproduces rapidly—every three months, and in suitable conditions, the population could increase by 400 times every six months.13.Where might locusts first appear?A.In Ethiopia.B.In Somalia.C.In Kenya.D.In the Gulf of Aden.14.What does the underlined word “voracious” mean?A.Expecting to fly.B.Wanting to eat.C.Being curious.D.Being cautious.15.Which might be the cause of the locusts' spread?A.Experts' unawareness of how to prevent the locusts' spread.ck of people to deal with locusts.C.The good living environment of the desert.D.Losing the chance to solve the locust problem in the bud.16.What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?A.Desert locusts' ability to take advantage of good conditions.B.Desert locusts' long life on the earth.C.Desert locusts' ability to reproduce and survive.D.Desert locusts' different survival abilities.第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

She had never experienced an earthquake before; she only prepared for it. As long as she could remember, preparing for an earthquake was common at her school. Her family had made plans as well in case of a natural disaster.One day, Maggie arrived home from school at the usual time. However, it was not the same as usual. She was home alone. Her mom would be driving home on the busy freeway and her dad was to arrive at the airport. He was coming home from a two-week business trip.After finishing her homework, Maggie felt a little hungry, so she went to the kitchen to find something to eat. Just then she felt a shake, then the violent shaking. Maggie quickly ran under the large table in the dining room. The sounds of breaking glass and the crash of many things were deafening, and Maggie hugged herself in fear.After what seemed like a very long time, the earthquake appeared to be over. Maggie could hear the sound of water rushing below her in the basement. And there was the smell of natural gas in the air. Maggie knew where the main water valve(阀门)was and how to turn it off. Dad had ever shown her before.Slowly and carefully she came out from under the table. The once tidy home was then almost unrecognizable. Walls had fallen down and many things in the room were in a mess. As Maggie approached the open basement door, she could see the steps. Carefully she made her way down into the dark basement.While placing her feet firmly on the floor, Maggie felt a sudden pain as a large wood hit her head and shoulder.

Some suggest playing music for your houseplants, having conversations with them, or even giving them a gentle touch now and then. Most of these practices are probably more for the benefit of the gardener than the garden, and generally harmless enough but except the last one. Your plants really dislike it when you touch them.A new study out of the La Trobe Institute for Agriculture and Food has found that most plants are extremely sensitive to the touch, and even a light touch can significantly stunt(遏制)their growth. “The lightest touch from a human, animals, insects, or even plants' touching each other in the wind, can cause a huge gene response in the plant,”said Jim Whelan, who led the new study. “Within 30 minutes of being touched, 10% of the plan t's genome(基因组)can be changed. This involves a huge expenditure(消耗)of energy which is taken away from plant growth. If the touching is repeated, then plant growth is reduced by up to 30%.”Whelan and his team are still trying to find out why plants respond, at the genetic level, so strongly. They do have some theories, however. “We know that when an insect lands on a plant, genes are activated(激活)to prepare the plant for defending itself against being eaten,” said Dr. Yan Wang, co-author of the study.Until more research is done, it's just a guess at this point. Still, the findings might already lead to new methods for how agriculturalists deal with their crops, to best promote healthier growth.It's worth noticing that while the study has found that plants often respond to just a single touch in negative ways, it's really repeated touch that causes lasting stunted growth. That's because the plants are looking for patterns in the touching, to tell harmful touch from random touch. So it doesn't matter if you accidentally brush up against a bush during a walk through the woods.12.How is the passage mainly developed?A.By comparing.B.By giving examples.C.By listing numbers.D.By showing results of studies.13.Why can touching stunt a plant growing according to the study?A.It leads to the plant's energy expenditure.B.It makes the plant sensitive to threats.C.It causes a genetic disorder in the plant.D.It prevents the plant absorbing nutrients.14.What's the importance of the study by Whelan and his team?A.It gives us more useful gardening tips.B.It helps find ways to ensure plants' healthy growth.C.It contributes to the further study on genes.D.It uses data to warn people not to touch plants.15.What is the passage mainly about?A.Something is done to help plants grow.B.Plants' genome can be changed easily.C.Plants don't really like to be touched.D.What we do every day may destroy plants.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

So it is not unusual for a family to have several full gas cans and bottled water stored in their houses all summer.Though unwilling to evacuate (撤离) from a hurricane, on September 15, my family was forced to leave our home for my grandfather’s house several miles away. We spent the early part of that evening watching the hurricane draw closer on the Weather Channel. Around nine o’clock, a loud sound shook the house, turned over the roof and carried it off. Soon came an indoor rainstorm.Realizing the damage, my grandfather began to be afraid. The storm had started, but he still ran out into the heavy rain and wind to see how much of the roof was left. We got him back inside. I had never seen him so scared. Mom finally asked him to lie down in his room.The leak (渗漏) had progressed rapidly. It soon became a race against time to protect what to be saved. Some people may think it necessary to save material things, but I hoped to save those items with emotional value, such as the photos. I still feared the storm, but I more feared the influence it brought.The next morning, it started to clear up. Thankfully, my family came safely through the storm, though the same could not be said for the house. Only the wooden beams (梁) remained, but inside many of the things were safe. My mom and I had worked tirelessly through the night.It was late, but we were still unwilling to go to bed. We discussed the rebuilding of the house. Under the beautiful sky, we suggested looking after my grandfather more often in the future. After this disaster, I realized the truth that the hurricane itself was not so terrible if we loved each other.4．What can we infer from the first paragraph?A．Many residents living near the coast tend to leave the place.B．Many residents are unwilling to prepare for hurricanes.C．Hurricanes often strike the Florida Emerald Coast.D．Hurricanes seldom hit the Florida Emerald Coast.5．Why did the author’s grandfather go out into the rain and wind?A．To protect something outside.B．To see the condition of the roof.C．To avoid the danger in the house.D．To know how serious the rain was.6．What is the main idea of the fourth paragraph?A．Why the author feared the storm.B．How the storm influenced the house.C．How people helped each other in the storm.D．What the author was ready to save from the storm. 7．What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 5 mean?A．The house contained many valuable things.B．The house was destroyed in the disaster.C．The house could be easy to repair.D．The house survived the hurricane.C（2024·湖南长沙·三模）Rogues (疯狗浪), called “extreme storm waves” by scientists, are large, unexpected, and dangerous waves that are at least twice as high as the other waves around them, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). These abnormal waves, which happen every day and all over the world, are highly unpredictable and can destroy ships that meet with them.Rogue waves appear to form when large rough waves pass through one another, combining to form huge walls of water, according to NOAA．However, why and where they appear is unclear. But using 700 years’ worth of ocean data including historical records and data from buoys (浮标) in 158 locations around the world, researchers have now created a system for predicting these “huge beasts”.“They are caused by a combination of many factors that, until now, have not been combined into a single risk assessment,” said lead author Dion Häfner. Häfner and his co-workers mapped the factors that may lead to rogue waves and used AI to make a single model that could determine the likelihood that a rogue wave will form.The team trained a neural network using historical wave data. This generated a system that learned the causes of rogue waves by itself and could work to predict them. But the AI’s methods were hid in a black box. This means scientists couldn’t know how the AI did its workings. So Häfner’s team applied another form of machine learning, which produced an equation (综合体) when fed data, rather than just a single prediction, helping the researchers to understand how the AI reached its predictions.“Our analysis demonstrates that abnormal waves occur all the time. In fact, we registered 100,000 waves in our data set that can be defined as rogue waves,” Häfner said. This system effectively shows the sign of a rogue wave, Häfner added, and can better protect ships from being destroyed as the sail around the world. Ship companies can use the device with the system to predict when and where rogue waves might arise to seek an alternative course.8．How does the author introduce the topic?A．By using an example.B．By giving a definition.C．By drawing a comparison.D．By making an assumption.9．What can the system do according to paragraph 2?A．Monitor huge sea creatures.B．Guide ships around in the sea.C．Prevent rouge waves from occurring.D．Forecast the hitting of rogue waves.10．What is the disadvantage of the AI’s methods?A．They aren’t visually available.B．They depend on too many factors.C．They make inaccurate predictions.D．They don’t process data systematically.11．How does Häfner find the system?A．It requires more field tests.B．It has been widely used.C．It needs further improvement.D．It has a promising future.D（2024·广西南宁·二模）In Japan, the new year began with disaster as a 7.5 magnitude earthquake struck the Noto Peninsula (能登半岛) on the country’s western edge on Monday. More than 2,000 active fault lines (断层线) lie beneath Japan, making it one of the most earthquake-prone countries in the world.Many scientists have long considered earthquake forecasting to be impossible. But given recent improvements in artificial intelligence, some researchers have been studying whether that could change.Last fall, researchers at the University of Texas at Austin increased such hopes for earthquake prediction witha seven-month trial in China. In all, the algorithm (演算法) successfully forecast 14 earthquakes, each within about 200 miles of its actual epicenter (震中). Meanwhile, it missed one quake and predicted eight that never happened. The trial was part of an international A．I.-design competition, one of a few such events held in recent years to advance earthquake prediction technologies.Sergey Fomel, a geoscientist at UT Austin and a member of the research team, says in a statement. “We’re not yet close to making predictions for anywhere in the world, but what we achieved tells us that what we thought was an impossible problem is solvable in principle.”Additionally, machine learning could help detect hidden patterns in data or collect more data to better inform earthquake forecasting, Hutchison writes for MIT Technology Review. For example, some researchers are showing how A．I. might use recordings from a specific seismic site to anticipate an earthquake’s magnitude. One team has built and trained neural networks to predict where aftershocks may occur after an initial strike. And others are using machine learning to identify and extract seismic waves—the vibrations that spread through the earth during tectonic activity (构造活动)—from other noises in the ground.12．What’s the function of the first paragraph?A．To explain a concept.B．To introduce a new topic.C．To supply a summary.D．To provide an example.13．What made some researchers optimistic about the earthquake forecasting?A．The recent progress in theories.B．The use of traditional methods.C．The increasing number of earthquakes.D．The advancements in artificial intelligence.14．What do we know from the third paragraph?A．The trial was conducted by Chinese.B．The algorithm was totally successful.C．A．I. shows promise in earthquake prediction.D．The A．I. competition only focused on earthquakes. 15．What is the best title for the passage?A．Japan’s Vulnerability to Earthquakes B．Helper in Predicting Earthquakes—A．I.C．The Impossibility of Earthquake Prediction D．International Efforts to Predict Earthquakes第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

【新教材】人教版（2019）高一英语必修第一册 Unit 4 单元测试卷学校：___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________ 一、阅读理解Stages of Hurricane: Simple Storms Grow Into GiantsA storm progresses through four different stages before it is actually considered a hurricane. First is a tropical disturbance (热带扰动), which has thunderstorms and rotating (旋转) winds. Next is a tropical depression (热带低气压), which is similar to a tropical disturbance, but has winds between 23 and 39 miles per hour. A tropical storm is the next level, which has stronger wind speeds between 40 and 73 miles per hour. Once winds reach 74 miles per hour the storm is officially called a hurricane. The wind picks up energy from the warm surface of ocean water.As a hurricane crosses over land, it begins to become weaker or break apart and reduce in strength. This is because it is no longer over the warm ocean water that it needs for energy. At this point, a hurricane can still cause a lot of damage because of high winds, rain, and flooding. But unless it makes its way back over the open ocean, it is downgraded from a hurricane back to a tropical storm.What's Your Name, Hurricane?Hurricanes and tropical storms are given names to help people recognize them. Scientists refer to hurricanes and storms by name as they track them across the ocean.Before 1953, hurricanes were not given official names. From 1953 through 1978, hurricanes were only given female names, like Isabel, Camille, Claudette, and Wilma. Beginning in 1979, hurricanes were given the names of both women and men. Today, the names alternate male and female, and they are named in order of letters.For example, in 2010, storms were named as follows: Alex (male), Bonnie (female), Colin (male), Danielle (female), Earl (male) and so on...There are six different lists of names that change, so the same names are used every six years. The only way that a new name is added is when a hurricane has been particularly deadly or costly and the name is retired, then replaced with a new one.1. What happens when a hurricane crosses over land?A.It breaks apart and forms tornadoes.B.It returns to the ocean afterwards.C.It moves more quickly.D.It becomes less powerful.2.The underlined word "alternate" in paragraph 4 means "_____" .A.take turns betweenB.carry one fromD.cause trouble to3.What do we know about the hurricanes?A.Six common hurricane names are often used.B.An old name will be replaced every year.C.Most of them are deadly and costly.D.They didn't have official names until 1953.After an earthquake most survivors can be expected to recover over time, particularly with the support of family and friends. Some families will be able to return to their normal life quickly, while others will have to contend with the destruction of their homes, medical problems, and injury to family members. Children especially will need time to recover from the loss of a loved one or a pet or from the closing down of their school.Children often turn to adults for information, comfort and help. Parents should try to remain calm, answer children's questions honestly and remain understanding when they see changes in their children's behaviour.Children react differently to an earthquake depending on their ages, developmental levels and former experiences. Some will respond by withdrawing(不与人交往), while others will have angry outbursts(爆发). Parents should remain sensitive to each child's reactions. Parents should spend time talking to their children, letting them know that it's OK to ask questions and to share their worries. Although it may be hard to find time to have these talks, parents can use regular family mealtimes or bedtimes for them. They should answer questions briefly and honestly and be sure to ask their children for their opinions and ideas. Issues may come up more than once and parents should remain patient when they answer the questions again. For young children, parents, after talking about the earthquake, might read a favourite story or have a relaxing family activity to help them calm down. Parents should also tell children they are safe and spend extra time with them. They could play games outside or read together indoors. Most importantly, be sure to tell them you love them.1. The underlined phrase "contend with" in Paragraph 1 can be replaced by "_______".A. deal withB. make upC. put offD. turn back2. When children ask the same question again, parents should _______.A. read a favourite story to comfort themB. ask them to help do some houseworkC. be patient and answer the question againD. take them out to play games3. Which of the following pieces of advice is NOT mentioned in the passage?A. Keep a close watch on children's behaviour.B. Tell the children they are safe.C. Tell the children you love them.D. Ask educational experts for help.4. What can we know from the passage?A. All people will recover from an earthquake quickly.B. Children may need a longer time to recover after an earthquake.C. Children should turn to their classmates for help after an earthquake.D. Children react in the same way as adults do to an earthquake.Last Sunday, an earthquake struck the Napa Valley area of northern California. It happened in the middle of the night, becoming the strongest earthquake to strike the Napa Valley in 15 years. No one was killed, but many people were treated in hospitals.I said to my seven-year-old twins, Brad and Brett, and three-year-old Meghan, "We have so much, and these poor people in trouble now have nothing. We'll share what we have with them."I filled a box with foods and clothes. While I was doing this, I advised the boys to choose their toys and donate some of their less favourite things. Meghan watched quietly as the boys took out their old toys and put them together. Then she walked away. A few minutes later she came back with Lucy, her much-loved doll. She put the doll on top of the other toys."Oh, dear," I said. "You don't have to give Lucy. You love her so much." Meghan said, "Lucy makes me happy, Mummy. Maybe she'll make another little girl happy, too."I looked at Meghan for a long moment. She taught me a lesson. It's easy to give something that we don't want any more, but hard to give what we cherish (珍爱), isn't it?1. How many children does the writer have?A. One.B. Two.C. Three.D. Four.2. Which of the following is TRUE?A. The earthquake caused many deaths.B. The earthquake is the biggest in history.C. The earthquake happened at night.D. The earthquake hit the city of California.3. What did Meghan take out for the people in trouble?A. A toy.B. Clothes.C. A doll.D. Food.4. What's the best title of this passage?A. A Family StoryB. The Spirit of GivingC.A White NightD. A Sad ExperienceHaving lived in California until 1970, my family has felt a number of earthquakes. We have been fortunate, however, to have suffered no bodily harm or property damage.There is a website that lists all California earthquakes recorded from 1769 to the present. The site lists the dates and times as well as the magnitude (震级) and the exact location of any quake that measured more than 6.0.There are only a few quakes that stand out in my memory and, luckily, none is shown in the website. So, my personal experience with earthquakes might be considered insignificant.There are three earthquakes that are difficult to forget. The first one was in 1955 and our oldest daughter was walking with me in our backyard in Redwood City in California. As the shaking became stronger I held her to me with one arm as I held on to one of our fruit trees with the other. All three of us (my daughter, I and the tree) shook for two or three minutes that to us felt like hours.The second one was in 1963. Our entire family was visiting Disneyland in Southern California. The earth started to shake just as we were beginning to walk from our hotel towards the famous landmark.My third experience with an earthquake was a lonely one in California. It was in my sixties and I was alone in an old church. As the building started to shake, I quickly headed for the door to go outside. I remember I said a little prayer-something like, "Help me get out of here in time, Dear Heavenly Father." Minutes later, I was safe outside.1. The author writes the passage mainly to tell us about _____.A. a new film about an earthquakeB. how to survive an earthquakeC. his three earthquake experiencesD. how to save children in an earthquake2.

When the first earthquake happened, the author _____.A. was staying with his daughterB. was planting fruit trees mlC. held on to a tree for hours mD. was in a hotel4. What does the underlined part "the famous landmark" refer to?A. A church.B. Disneyland.C. A building destroyed by an earthquake.D. The place where the author was born.二、七选五Earthquake can strike without warning. But many injuries and deaths from this kind of natural disaster can be prevented if people follow these safety tips.If you're inside a building, stay there! One of the most dangerous things to do in an earthquake is to try to leave a building. ①_____ Drop to the ground. Get under something that is not easily damaged. Hold on to it until the shaking stops. You can also get to a comer formed by two walls with your arms over your head. If you're in bed when the earthquake hits, stay there and protect your head with a pillow.②_____ Don't take shelter under trees, street lights, electric poles or tall buildings. If you are driving, stop as quickly as possible and stay away from overpasses (立交桥), buildings, bridges or anything else that might fall or collapse beneath you. ③ _____If you are trapped in ruins, cover your mouth with a handkerchief or a piece of cloth. Use your cellphone to call for help if possible. Don't shout. ④_____ Tap on a pipe or the wall so rescuers can find you.Be prepared for after shocks. ⑤_____ However, sometimes they even happen months later.
