Nelson Mandela a modern hero Ⅰ.阅读理解Words can hurtI REMEMBER the pain most vividly.My stomach was sick，my heart hurt，and my eyes stung(刺痛的)from holding back tears.“You know，Autumn，” my friend Nick said，“Lisa and Andrea were just talking about you.” I immediately got nervous.“They said that the only reason you start on the basketba ll team is because the coach likes you.It's not because you're good.”I thought I might be sick.“They said they're tired of you always getting what you want.”I struggled to keep myself from crying，sinking to my knees on the cold floor.After Nick told me everything my supposed best friends said about me，I was hurt.Lisa and Andrea came in from lunch break acting as if nothing had happened.Lisa was still my deskmate，and Andrea was still my partner for our history project.I was amazed at their ability to pretend we had the perfect friendship，especially since they'd said such hurtful things.I was a freshman in high school，and I felt like I didn't have a friend in the world，all because of a rumor(谣言)．The tongue(舌头)can be our worst enemy.Rumors harm confidence and separate close friends.They are like sharp knives，cutting one's dignity into pieces.When we say unkind things about others，we're thrusting(插入)knives into their hearts.So how was I to act next？When Lisa and Andrea pretended our friendship hadn't changed，I thought of attacking them back.But instead，I told them directly that they had hurt me.Lisa started crying and Andrea was speechless.I knew they were both sorry for what they had said.They apologized，and I forgave them with grace.Sure，things were a little awkward at first，but soon enough everything was back to the way it had been before.I still deal with gossip，sometimes as a recipient(接受者)and sometimes as aparticipant(参与者)．But the more I learn about love，the more I realize the importance of encouraging others－something gossip never does.1．From the first two paragraphs，we can conclude that Lisa and Andrea________.A．were jealous(嫉妒的)of the authorB．were admiring(赞赏)of the authorC．did not think the author was the coach's favoriteD．made fun of the author's basketball performances2．How did the author react to her friends' comments about her?A．She decided to fight back immediately.B．She pretended that nothing had changed.C．She found it awkward to speak to them.D．She told them how she felt about their words.3．What is the author's attitude towards rumors?A．Worried. B．Careless.C．Tolerant(容忍的). D．Negative(否定的)．4．With this article，the author mainly intends to tell us that________.A．rumors can harm and end friendshipsB．we have to be patient when we have problems with our friendsC．gossip is part of life but it is better to encourage peopleD．we should be careful around our friends since they may cheat usⅡ.完形填空On a Spanish island，there is an ancient whistling language.It once seemed to be__1__out，but now it is undergoing a revival(复兴)．The language，called silbo gomero，has a(n)__2__that is perfectly suited to the native landscape of deep valleys.It can travel up to two miles，much further and with much less effort than__3__.There are no exact records about its__4__.It is known that__5__the first European settlers arrived at La Gomera in the 15th century，the people living on the island，who were of North African origin，__6__with whistles.With the arrival of the Spanish，the locals had to__7__the whistling language to Spanish.So the most__8__theory is that the whistle came with the settlers from Africa，where there are records of other__9__languages.Some locals__10__its widespread use in the 1940s and 50s.In the old days，whenever the mountain caught fire，the fire service always picked up the locals to put out the fire.In order to__11__being picked up，the locals passed on the message through whistling.So the people from the council couldn't__12__what the locals were saying and couldn't find them.At that time，learning to whistle wasn't a matter of__13__，but a necessity.Whistling began to__14__in the 1950s，when economic difficulties forced most of the whistlers to leave.The__15__road network，and later，the development of the mobile phone，deprived(剥夺)the language of its__16__function.By the 1970s and 80s，there were only a few whistlers__17__，but at the end of the 90s there was renewed interest in silbo，__18__due to an attempt to make it a compulsory subject at primary school.Nowadays，silbo is mostly heard in restaurants that provide whistling__19__for tourists.Whistling is__20__to the island's tourism industry，just as in the UK there is a branch of tourism linked to learning English.1.A.breaking B．givingC．dying D．bursting2．A.expectation B．qualityC．shortage D．behavior3．A.shouting B．walkingC．chatting D．calling4．A.functions B．secretsC．origins D．differences5．A.where B．whatC．how D．when6．municated B．contrastedC．equipped D．dealt7．A.refer B．devoteC．adapt D．restrict8．mon B．probableC．flexible D．doubtful9．A.native B．whistledC．familiar D．African10．A.remove B．recallC．relate D．regret11．A.avoid B．forbidC．refuse D．permit12．A.get through B．focus onC．figure out D．hear from13．A.choice B．cultureC．pleasure D．pressure14．A.decline B．reviveC．recover D．increase15．A.changing B．growingC．decreasing D．moving16．A.available B．reasonableC．practical D．convenient17．A.remaining B．succeedingC．staying D．learning18．A.after all B．far fromC．as though D．in part19．A.shows B．signsC．classes D．sites20．A.traditional B．obviousC．important D．healthyⅢ.对话填空阅读下列对话，掌握其大意，并根据上下文填写空白处所需的内容(不多于3个单词)或所提供单词的正确形式。

Unit 5 Nelson Mandela—a modern hero(80分钟106分)Part A一、阅读理解(共8小题;每小题2分,满分16分)ACleverness is a gift while kindness is a choice.Gifts are easy—they’re given after all.Choices can be hard.I got the idea to start Amazon 16 years ago.I came across the fact that the Internet usage was growing at 2,300 percent per year.I’d never seen or heard of anything that grew that fast,and the idea of building an online bookstore with millions of titles was very exciting to me.I had just turned 30 years old,and I’d been married for a year.I told my wife MacKenzie that I wanted to quit my job and go to do this crazy thing that probably wouldn’t work since most start-ups don’t,and I wasn’t sure what to expect.MacKenzie told me I should go for it.As a young boy,I’d been a garage inventor.I’d always wanted to be an inventor,and she wanted me to follow my passion.I was working at a financial firm in New York City with a bunch of very smart people,and I had a brilliant boss that I much admired.I went to my boss and told him I wanted to start a company selling books on the Internet.He took me on a long walk in Central Park,listened carefully to me,and finally said,“That sounds like a really good idea,but it would be an even better idea for someone who didn’t yet have a good job.” That logic made some sense to me,and he convinced me to think about it for 48 hours before making a final decision.Seen in that light,it really was a difficult choice,but finally,I decided I had to give it a shot(尝试).I didn’t think I’d regret trying and failing.And I suspected I would always be haunted by a decision not to try at all.After much consideration,I took the less safe path to follow my passion,and I’m proud of that choice.For all of us,in the end,we are our choices.1.What inspired the author with the idea of building an online bookstore?A.His dream of being an inventor.B.The support of his wife.C.The greatly increasing usage of the Internet.lions of exciting titles.2.Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined sentence?A.The idea of not trying would keep coming to his mind and disturb him.B.He would be very excited if he tried it out.C.He would be always having a doubt if he didn’t try.D.The decision not to try the online bookstore would terrify him.3.We can know from the passage that .A.the boss thought the idea was suitable for the authorB.the author wanted someone else to try the ideaC.the author might not regret if he failed the ideaD.the author might go back to his boss if he failed4.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A.Cleverness and kindnessB.The starting of AmazonC.Following my passionD.We are what we choose【文章大意】本文是一篇自传,作者是亚马逊网站创始人贝佐斯。

Unit 5 Nelson Mandela—a modern heroⅠ.阅读理解US author Henry Rollins once wrote:“Loneliness adds beauty to life.It puts a special burn on sunsets and makes night air smell better.”Indeed,in the eyes of artists,loneliness never seems to go out of style.There are paintings that portray loneliness,songs that are inspired by loneliness,and many works of literature that center around this theme.In the eyes of UK economist Rachel Reeves,however,loneliness is far from romantic (浪漫的).Instead,it’s a “giant evil” that’s become a serious problem in the country.So just how serious is it?On Jan.17,UK Prime Minister Theresa May appointed politician Tracey Crouch as the country’s very first “Minister for Loneliness”.Her job is to tackle (处理) the loneliness that the country’s been feeling—a problem which,according to UK government research,is affecting more than 9 million people in the country,and is more harmful to one’s physical and mental health than smoking 15 cigarettes a day.And the problem hasn’t just appeared recently.Back in 2014,the UK was given the title of the “loneliness capital of Europe” by The Telegraph.A survey carried out by the newspaper found that British people were less likely to get to know their neighbors or build strong relationships with people than those from other European countries.“There is something British about wanting to deal with problems yourself,”Christian Guy,director of the Centre for Social Justice think-tank (智囊团),told The Telegraph.But this doesn’t mean that the problem only affects Britons.In fact,we’re all suffering from loneliness now more than ever,in spite of most of the world now having access to the Internet,which has enabled us to be more connected than ever.What we need,according to Kim Leadbetter,sister of the late UK politician Jo Cox,is to have “proper human connections”.“Our lives nowadays are so busy.We spend the vast majority of our time on our phones,on our laptops.We need to press pause on that and actually sit down and speak to human beings,”Leadbetter said at an event last year.But the first steps toward fighting this problem are to accept its existence and not be ashamed or intimidated (吓倒) by it.After all,without loneliness,many beautiful paintings,songs,and literary works wouldn’t even exist.And “evil” or not,being lonely is simply part of the experience of being human.1.What can we learn about the UK’s loneliness problem?A.The government is working to solve the problem.B.More than half of British people suffer from loneliness.C.The UK became the loneliest country in the world in 2014.D.British people communicate less with their neighbors than ever.2.According to the text,social loneliness .A.does more harm mentally than physicallyB.didn’t attract the public’s attention until recentlyC.is mainly caused by the wide use of the InternetD.has become a problem worldwide3.What does Leadbetter suggest doing to cope with loneliness?A.Making more phone calls to our friends.B.Stopping the use of electronic products.C.Interacting with the people around us face to face more often.D.Accepting its existence calmly.4.Which of the following would the author probably agree with?A.Loneliness is a giant evil of society.B.Only artists can appreciate the beauty of loneliness.C.Loneliness is just a normal part of our life.D.It is hard to find a solution to social loneliness.语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文,介绍了英国流行的一种病,名叫孤独。

We didn't expect to break the record. But when it came true, it was like a dream，” said Li Xiaobing, an English major who graduated in 2014.“Every day we checked how far the Norwegian team was. We felt very nervous and stressed, and we worked hard to keep them away from us. But they were very strong，” said Chen Yuli, a physics major who graduated last year. The worst moment came on Jan. 4 when the boat capsized (倾覆) after three big waves hit one after another.During the joyful times, the girls sang pop songs loudly or ate noodles they had brought from China. The biggest take-away from the trip is about life attitude, Li said. “Everything will be all right in the end. If not, it's not the end.”Meng Yajie and Liang Mintian, majoring in English and finance respectively, graduated from the university last year.【语篇解读】4名汕大女生划艇横渡大西洋，她们不仅是第一支到达的女子队伍，也是比赛中最年轻的选手。

Entertainment.BWhy College Is Not HomeThe college years are supposed to be a time for important growth in autonomy(自主性) and the development of adult identity. However, now they are becoming an extended period of adolescence, during which many of today’s students and are not shouldered with adult responsibilities.For previous generations, college was a decisive break from parental control; guidance and support needed to come from people of the same age and from within. In the past two decades, however, continued connection with and dependence on family, thanks to cell phones, email and social media, have increased significantly. Some parents go so far as to help with coursework. Instead of promoting the idea of college as a passage from the shelter of the family to autonomy and adult responsibility, universities have given in to the idea that they should provide the same environment as that of the home.To prepare for increased autonomy and responsibility, college needs to be a time of exploration and experimentation. This process involves ＂trying on＂ new ways of thinking about oneself bother intellectually(在思维方面) and personally. While we should provide ＂safe spaces＂ within colleges, we must also make it safe to express opinions and challenge majority views. Intellectual growth and flexibility are fostered by strict debate and questioning.Learning to deal with the social world is equally important. Because a college community(群体) differs from the family, many students will struggle to find a sense of belonging. If students rely on administrators to regulate their social behavior and thinking pattern, they are not facing the challenge of finding an identity withina larger and complex community.Moreover, the tendency for universities to monitor and shape student behavior runs up against another characteristic of young adults: the response to being controlled by their elders. If acceptable social behavior is too strictly defined(规定) and controlled, the insensitive or aggressive behavior that administrators are seeking to minimize may actually be encouraged.It is not surprising that young people are likely to burst out, particularly when there are reasons to do so. Our generation once joined hands and stood firm at times of national emergency. What is lacking today is the conflict between adolescent’s desire for autonomy and their understanding of an unsafe world. Therefore, there is the desire for their dorms to be replacement homes and not places to experience intellectual growth.Every college discussion about community values, social climate and behavior should include recognition of the developmental importance of student autonomy and self-regulation, of the necessary tension between safety and self-discovery. 5. What’s the author’s attitude toward continued parental guidance to college students?A. Sympathetic.B. Disapproving.C. Supportive.D. Neutral.6. The underlined word ＂passage＂ in Paragraph 2 means _________.A. changeB. choiceC. textD. extension7. According to the author, what role should college play?A. To develop a shared identity among students.B. To define and r egulate students’ social behavior.C. To provide a safe world without tension for students.D. To foster students’ intellectual and personal development.C(黑龙江省大庆市2017届高三第二次教学质量检测)When I was a freshman, onChristmas break I went home and looked through the bags of clothes Mom intended to give away. I took a baggy red shirt, for I needed something to wear in art class. Mom was surprised. She wore that when she was pregnant with my younger brother.The red shirt became a part of my college wardrobe. After graduation, I wore the shirt the day I moved into my new apartment and on Saturday morning when I cleaned. When I became pregnant, I wore the red shirt during big-belly days. I missed Mom and the rest of my family. But that shirt helped. I smiled, remembering that Mother had worn it when she was pregnant, 15 years earlier. That Christmas, thinking of the warm feelings the shirt had given me, I wrapped it in holiday paper and sent it to Mom. When Mom wrote to thank me for her ＂real＂ gift, she said the red shirt was lovely. She never mentioned it again. The next year, when my husband and I moved the kitchen table, I noticed something red taped to its bottom. It was the shirt! And so the pattern was set.On our next visit home, I secretly placed the shirt under Mom and Dad’s mattress. Two years passed before I discovered it under the base of our living-room floor lamp. The red shirt was just what I needed now while refinishing furniture. The walnut stains added character.Years later, my husband and I divorced. With my three children, I prepared to move back to Illinois, depressed. Suddenly I saw the stained red shirt. I smiled. After unpacking in our new home I visited her, and I hid it in her bottom dresser drawer. Meanwhile, I found a good job at a radio station. A year later I discovered the red shirt hidden in a rag bag in my cleaning closet. The shirt was Mother’s final gift. Mother died three months later.I was tempted to send the red shirt, faded but in decent shape, with her to her grave. But I’m glad I didn’t, my older daughter is in college now, majoring in art. And every art student needs a baggy red shirt to wear to art class.8.Where did the author get the shirt for the first time?A. In art class in college.B. In unwanted bags of clothes.C.

It has the atmosphere of a student party in an old building that might soon be knocked down.Roncs is owned by Hungary’s best-known heavy metal rock band, Tankcsapda. Sometimes referred to as the ＂Hungarian Metallica＂, the band has taken a type of music that is famous worldwide and — through lyrics, album covers, and an annual New Year’s party and concert-made it all about their home city.It’s perhaps fitting that Tankcsapda should be seen as ambassadors for Debrecen—the city sometimes needs loud heavy metal rock music to get noticed. ＂Foreigners think that Hungary is Budapest and there’s nothing else,＂ is a familiar saying on Debrecen’s streets.Debrecen has, at times, been more important than the current seat of power, with locals claiming it takes over in times of trouble.That doesn’t quite add up.Debrecen survived an attack from the Mongols in the 13th century, the Black Death, 150 years of struggle against the Ottomans and numerous conflicts, and yet it has still only briefly bee n the country’s capital twice. This happened for the first time after a short-lived revolution in 1849, and for a second time at the end of World War II.Today, Debrecen may not be well known to tourists, but that only adds to the charm of this relaxed cit y. It’s a small place; the historical center is sized for strolling (散步) and regular cafe stops. There’s also a view of Debrecen’s mix of architectural styles, a result of the frequent large fires that back in the 19th century led the city’sstudents to fo rm one of Europe’s first-ever fire brigades (消防队).You can also see traditional weathercocks from the rooftops, featuring Islamic star and crescent moon symbols that once advertised to Ottoman invaders that the city preferred trading to fighting.Trade mea nt that Debrecen’s skilled people became very successful and the city became famous for — among other things — fine foods, hats and clay pipes. In the early 19th century, 10 million clay pipes were reportedly made a year, with thousands bought for Britain’s navy.12. What do Debrecen citizens expect Tankcsapda to do?A. Introduce heavy metal music to Hungary.B. Hold parties featuring live heavy metal music shows.C. Try to make Debrecen known with its music.D. Create a unique type of heavy metal music.13. Why are locals used to having to make a noise to get heard?A. Because they feel their city is too quiet and relaxed.B. Because they dislike it that the world only knows Budapest in Hungary.C. Because they think it helps create a powerful image of their city.D. Because all kinds of music bars bring their city alive.14. What does the underlined word refer to?A. Styles.B. Conditions.C. Atmosphere.D. Climate.15. What is the key message the author wants to deliver in this passage?A. Debrecen actually is more important than Budapest.B. Debrecen is a place which is worth visiting.C. Debrecen citizens love music and create their unique culture.D. Debrecen citizens are proud of their culture and history.第二节 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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。

2020高考一轮复习教材串讲必修1 Unit 5 Nelson Mandela-a modern hero练习Ⅰ.阅读理解AYou've just finished a heavy meal and are full up. Suddenly, your host announces proudly that he will be serving his “house specialty” dessert, bananas flambe and that he has spent the better part of the afternoon preparing it. Even though you are foil and don’t even like bananas, you accept a serving of his dessert and eat it all.Clearly, biological factors do not fully explain our eating behavior. Social factors, based on societal rules and on what we have learned about appropriate eating behavior, also play an important role. Take, for example, the simple fact that people customarily eat breakfast, lunch and dinner at approximately the same times every day. Because we tend to eat on schedule every day, we feel hungry as the usual hour approaches.Similarly, we put roughly the same amount of food on our plate every day, even though the amount of exercise we may have had, and consequently our need for energy supply, varies from day to day. We also tend to prefer particular food over others. Rats and dogs may be a delicacy in certain Asian cultures, but few people in Western cultures find them appealing despite their potentially high nutritional value. In sum, cultural influences and our individual habits play important roles in determining when, what, and how much we eat.Other social factors relate to our eating behavior as well. Some of us head toward the refrigerator after a difficult day, seeking comfort in a scoop of Heath Bar Crunch ice cream. Perhaps when we were children, our parents gave us food when we were upset. Eventually, we may have learned to associate food with comfort. Similarly, we may learn that eating, which focuses our attention on immediate pleasures, provides an escape from unpleasant thoughts. Consequently,we may eat when we feel upset and anxious.1. What causes you to accept the host's dessert offer at the end of the meal?A. Your hunger.B. The host’s pride.C. The pleasant taste.D.

Hindu(印度教)holy books from around 1500 BC describe meditating on the divine (神)，and art from this time period shows people sitting cross-legged and alone in a garden. In China and India around the fifth century BC, other forms of mediation developed. Several religions, including Taoism, Buddhism, Islam, and Christianity, had meditative ceremonies. In 20th-century Europe and America, secular meditation arrived from India. Rather than focusing on spiritual growth, it emphasizes stress reduction, relaxation, and self-improvement.Although it still isn't exactly mainstream, many people practice meditation. Mindfulness meditation, in particular, has become more popular in recent years. The practice involves sitting comfortably, focusing on one's breathing, and bringing the mind's attention to the present. Concerns about the past or future are let go of. An individual can picture worries popping like a bubble or flying away like a butterfly.Mindfulness is about increasing awareness and practicing acceptance. To be present is to have sharpened attention. According to the Mayo Clinic, "Meditation can give you a sense of calm, peace and balance that benefits your emotional well-being. "Among the emotional benefits are reducing negative emotions, increased self-awareness, and stress management skills. Asthma, depression, and sleep disorders are all conditions worsened by stress. Several studies have shown that patients with these conditions benefit from meditation.Dr. Robert Schneider, director of the Institute for Natural Medicine and Prevention, says, "I have been researching effects of meditation on health for thirty years and have found it has persuasive benefits.
