第一部分选修六Module 1Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2019·宁夏银川高三三模) Many years ago，my dad was facing a serious heart condition.He was unable to do a steady job.He fell suddenly ill and had to be admitted to the hospital.He wanted to do something to keep himself busy, so he decided to volunteer at the local children's hospital.My dad loved kids.It was the perfect job for him.He ended up working with the seriously ill children.He would talk，play, and do arts with them.One of his kids was a girl with a rare disease that paralyzed(瘫痪)her from the neck down.She couldn't do anything，and she was very depressed.My dad decided to try to help her.He started visiting her in her room，bringing paints，brushes and paper.He stood the paper up，put the paintbrush in his mouth and began to paint.He didn't use his hands at all.All the while he would tell her, “See，you can do anything you set your mind to.''At the end of the day, she began to paint using her mouth，and she and my dad became friends.Soon after, the little girl was sent home because the doctors felt there was nothing else they could do for her.My dad also left the children's hospital for a little while because he became ill.Some time later after my dad had recovered and returned to work，in came the little girl who had been paralyzed and only this time she was walking.She ran straight over to my dad and hugged him really tight.She gave him a picture she had done using her hands.At the bottom it read：”Thank you for helping me walk.''My dad would cry every time he told US this story and so would we.He would say sometimes love is more powerful than doctor, and my dad—who died just a few months after the little girl gave the picture—loved every single child in that hospital.语篇解读：这是一篇记叙文。

Some studies have suggested that eating in front of the TV encourages people to eat more,” Robinson added.1. The author tries to tell us in the first two paragraphs that ____.A. children will get fatter if they eat too much.B. children will get thinner if they eat less.C. children will get fatter if they spend less time watching TV.D. children will get fatter if they spend more time watching TV.2. According to the passage, the time American children usually spend on watching TV ____.A. is more than four hours a day.B. is less than four hours a day.C. doubled in the last twenty years.D. is more than on any other activities.3. The time children spend on TV viewing every day is suggested to be about ___.A. six hoursB. eight hoursC. three hoursD. one hour4. Which of the following is right ?A. Children usually eat fewer while watching TV.B. Children usually eat more while watching TV.C. Children eat the same amount of meals while watching TV.D. Children usually eat nothing while watching TV.5. Why can watching TV increase kids’ weig ht according to the passage ?A. They usually eat more while watching TV.B. They burn off fewer calories.C. They change their diet while watching TV.D. Both A and BBEveryone has got two personalities—the one that is shown to the world and the other that is secret and real. You don’t show your secret personality when you are awake because you can control your behavior, but when you are asleep, your sleeping position shows the real you. In a normal night, of course, people frequently change their positions. The important position is the one that you go to sleep in.If you go to sleep on your back, you’re a very open person. You normally trust people and you are easily influenced by fashion or new ideas. You don’t like to displease people. So you never exp ress your real feelings. You’re quite shy and you aren’t quite sure of yourself.If you sleep on your stomach, you are a rather secretive person. You worry a lot and you’re always easily upset. You always stick to your own opinions or judgment, but you don’t raise your hope too much. You usually live for today not tomorrow. This means that you enjoy having a good time.If you sleep curled up, you are probably a very nervous person. You have a low opinion of yourself and so you’re often defensive. You’re shy and you don’t normally like meeting people. You prefer to on your own. You’re easily hurt.If you sleep on your side, you have usually got a well—balanced personality. You know your strengths and weakness. You’re usually careful. You believe in yourself. You sometimes feel anxious, but you don’t often get sad. You always say what you think even if it makes people rather angry.6. According to the passage, a person, who is not willing to change his mind and hard to deal with, probably sleeps ___.A. on his sideB. on his backC. curled upD. on his stomach7. If a person prefers to sleep curled up rather than on his back, he may be well content to ____.A. do things personally.B. stay aloneC. keep things secretD. trust others easily8. Which of th e following people, in the author’s opinion, most likely have personalities opposite to each other ?A. The people sleeping on their stomach and those sleeping on his backs.B. The people sleeping on their sides and those sleeping curled up.C. The people sleeping on their backs and those sleeping on their sides.D. The people sleeping curled up and those sleeping on their stomach.9. What the author mainly intends to tell us is that _______.A. one’s sleeping position has something to do with one’s charac ter.B. everyone has got both real and secret personalities.C. the position in which one goes to sleep is the most important one.D. when awake, one does not show one’s secret personality.CThe use of cars is becoming more and more popular in the twentieth century. A large number of the world's population are now able to buy and use cars.Having a car gives much mobility（活动余地）, enabling the driver to move around freely. The owner of a car is no longer forced to depend on public transport（公共交通）and doesn't, therefore, have to work in a place near his home. Instead, he can choose from a greater variety of jobs and he could change his job frequently.Travelling to work by car is also more comfortable than having to use public transport; the driver can use the heating in winter and the air conditioning in summer to meet his own need andpreference. There is no discomfort caused by waiting forbuses, trains or underground trains etc. With the building of good fast motorways long distances can be covered rapidly and pleasantly. Also, for the first time in the century, many people are able to enjoy their free time to the full by making trips to the countryside or seaside at weekends. This feeling of independence and the freedom to go wherever you please is perhaps the greatest advantage（优势）of the car.10. What does the writer think of the public transport?A. It gives less mobilityB. It is not comfortable at allC. It enables a variety of jobsD. It is becoming more popular than before11. Traveling by bus may be ______.A. less comfortable than by underground trainB. more comfortable than by other transportC. less comfortable than by other public transportD. less comfortable than by car12. What does the underlined word mean?A. from time to timeB. with difficultyC. against his own willD. never13. What does the writer think of having a car of your own?A. It offers lots of advantages.B. It has lots of independence.C. It gives the feeling of freedom.D. It offers free trips.DI was bleeding now. My ears were red, my nose was broken, and the pain of failure was beginning. I had lost. It was over. The match was stopped. The world seemed to stand still for a moment as I looked at who had beaten me. “I’ve lost,” I said in m mind. “The last chance to win and I had lost.” It was the final round of wrestling. It was my last year at camp and I wanted to have an undefeated season. But now, I had lost in the tournament（锦标赛）.My coach came over to help me up. He saw that my nose was broken and realized that the match had to be stopped. He helped me up and I got small applause from my teammates. People on the other team just stared. Coach walked me over to the locker room to work on m nose.“I’ll stop the bleeding,” C oach Matt said. His voice was cold and empty. He had expected meto win—he knew I could have won—but now he saw it was over. I had lost.“Hey, Steve. You did good, man, He, well, he just…” my friend Paul couldn’t find what to say.“Forget it, man.” I said, my nose still bleeding.“Don’t talk or it won’t stop bleeding. Just relax and breath through your mouth.” Coach Matt’s voice was still cold, but warming slowly. He was like a father to me. He had been there through all m years of wrestling, all my wins and lose, all my hopes and dreams—and now he was there, fixing my smashed nose.“This must have happened during that last throw. You fell too much on your face. You should’ve turned and tried to escape. You gotta think more.” Coach Matt began, his voice now warm like an old friend trying to give good advice.“I wanted this so badly.” I said.“Maybe we can get another contest because of the nose. You can still go undefeated! You can still do it…” Paul continued.No, I lost. Nothing was left for me to do this year. This was supposed to be the year—no loses.” I said, cutting him off before he finished.“Steve, you did your best. Come on. Let’s go and get your medal,” Coach said. He looked at me right in the eyes. “You gave it your all. You deserved that trophy（战利品）, not the silver medal. You deserve it, but he is getting it. You really won and the whole team is proud.”I walked up to get my medal, my head held high. I shook the hands of the judges and my opponent, took my medal and saw that, in the eyes of everyone, I had really won. No matter what trophy or medal my opponent took home, no matter what. He may have had my trophy, but he could never have my will.14. The word “applause” in the second paragraph means _____.A. cheers and hand—clappingB. shouts and cryingC. screaming and laughingD. noises and whistling15. “You gave it your all.” means that _____.A. you tried to win but you failedB. you have done your best to do itC. you never gave up doing itD. you succeeded in everything四. 短文改错（共10小题，每小题1分；满分10分）Today I attended a meeting holding by our school. 1．_________At the meeting more than thirty students praised. 2．_________For our happiness, Bruce, monitor of our class, 3. ________who was among them .

单元加餐练Ⅰ.阅读理解How did your friendships begin? Most start with a short conversation on a random day. Asking about a homework assignment in class or complaining about your sore legs after playing in a soccer game, you found your best pal by accident.“Smal l talk is where all your relationships begin，” Forbes magazine summed up.The following is a five step guide to making small talk from Bernardo J. Carducci, the director of the Shyness Research Institute at Indiana University Southeast, US. Let's have a look.1．Getting startedBegin by talking about the setting, such as the weather outside or the room you are in (“It's cold in here, isn't it？”). The purpose of talking about the setting is to show the other person that you are willing to make a conversation.2．The personal introductionYou should mention something about yourself, such as your name. A good personal introduction helps move the conversation forward.3．Looking for topicsAt this point, you and your conversation partner need to find common ground. This is a good time to ask questions or to refer back to things you've said or heard earlier. Don't worry if it gets quiet. The other person is probably just thinking of something to say.4．Expanding the topicThe goal is to keep the conversation going. At every stage, you should be careful not to talk too much. But don't let the other person dominate (支配) the conversation either. If that starts to happen, mention something about yourself when he or she takes a breath.5．A polite endingWhen ending a conversation, let the person know you'll be leaving soon, express gratitude for the conversation and set the stage for a future conversation. For example, you could say，“I really must be going soon, but I had a great time chatting with you. I really liked hearing your opinion about that new movie. Here's my phone number. Call or text me if you know of any other movies you think I might enjoy.”语篇解读：本文向学生介绍了如何通过聊天建立友谊的技巧。
