限时规范练14 Unit 4 Astronomy the science of the stars 核心素养关键词:培养学生人与科学、关注前沿科技的素养能力意识一、阅读理解ASome new comets have been discovered accidentally by amateurastronomers.Surprisingly a few bright comets have been discovered with the naked eye (肉眼) by members of the general public.However,a great number of comets are found by comet hunters carrying out telescope searches of chosen areas of the night sky.As the movement of all comets is directed around the Sun and because these bodies brighten as they move towards the Sun,there is a greater possibility for the discovery of a new comet in the skies towards the Sun rather than away from the Sun’s direction.This means that searches should be put on the western sky after evening light and on the eastern sky before morning light.From the astronomical point there is no time during the year which is the bestfor the discovery of new comets.A search can be done at any time providing there is no bright Moon.Studies done on the discovery conditions of comets discovered before show that more comets have been discovered in the morning sky than in the evening sky.Thus the smart comet hunter should make sure that morning activity receives as much as if not more attention than evening effort.In recent times,the use of advanced CCD technology to discover objects close to the Earth will in the future greatly reduce the chances of new comets being found with small telescopes.An example of the new technology is the very successful LINEAR program operating in New Mexico.However,until a similar system is based in thesouthern half of the Earth there will continue to be chances for the discovery of new comets which come from the south.1.What are comet hunters advised to do?A.Look away from the Sun.B.Stay where there’s bright light.C.Face the western sky in the daytime.D.Turn to the east in the early morning.2.What do we know about the time for the discovery of new comets?A.Days when they’re close to the Earth are great chances.B.Certain fixed days are best for watching comets.C.Every day is the same if there’s no bright Moon.D.Days with the Moon should never be missed.3.Which of the following is a smart idea for comet hunters?A.Paying more attention in the morning than in the afternoon.B.Being equally serious both in the morning and afternoon.C.Being more relaxed in the morning than in the afternoon.D.Forming a habit of working only in the morning.4.What can be inferred about the CCD technology?A.It’s similar to a telescope.B.It’ll disappoint comet hunters.C.It’s spreading all over the world.D.It’ll make comet hunters feel lucky.BIt doesn’t matter how you choose to live your life — whatever you do,someone will judge you.With that in mind,let’s talk about being judged and criticized.When I started writing,it wasn’t the hurtful criticism from readers that prevented me from getting started.It was my worries about what they would think if I wrote about the things I cared about.I wrote my ideas in a private document for a year before I worked up the courage to start sharing them publicly.Usually,haters simply criticize and move on.And that means that you can safely ignore them and continue doing your thing.But that is easier said than done because we all like to be validated.Some people like it more than others,but everyone wants to be respected and appreciated to some degree.I certainly do.I know that whenever I choose to take a risk and share my work with the world,I wonder about how the people around me will see me because of that choice.Will this help my fame? Will this hurt my fame? Should I even be worrying about my fame? Finally,I decided that it was more important to contribute something to the world than it was to protect myself from criticism.The truth about criticism is that it’s almost always in your head.It is natural for most people to hold onto negative criticism.According to a research paper titled “Bad Is Stronger Than Good” by Roy Baumeister and researchers at Florida State University,we are more likely to remember negative criticism than praise.Baumeister found that even happy people are more likely to remember more negative events than positive ones.In fact,Baumeister and his team say that when it comes to your brain,it takes about five positive events to make up for one negative one.5.What prevented the author from getting started on writing?A.Her own fears.B.Her lack of experience.C.People’s judgment on her works.D.People’s different opinions on writing.6.Which word can best replace the underlined word “validated” in Paragraph 4?A.Judged.B.Helped.C.Studied.D.Praised.7.What kind of feeling do the questions in Paragraph 4 show?A.Shock.B.Worry.C.Regret.D.Sadness.8.What can be learned from Roy Baumeister’s research?A.We should try to avoid negative events.B.Criticism can bring about positive influence.C.We remember negative criticism more strongly.D.Criticism helps people know more about themselves.二、完形填空Do you like talking or working together with your parents? It goes without saying that there are many 1 in which young people can 2 the older generation.In both their work and their private lives,youngsters can get a lot from the 3 of their elders.As for work,the older generation can 4 how young people can achieve the career they 5 .For example,they can 6 what to do in order to develop the skills that will give young people the best chance of success.They may 7 be able to give invaluable advice as to which 8 young people should take or not take.It may even be the case that the older person will be able to ask their friends to help the younger one find a 9 .Older people may also be able to use the 10 of their own life experience to help young people with advice on 11 .It can happen that older people wish they had acted 12 in their own relationships,so they may wish to encourage youngsters toavoid similar 13 .If young people are prepared to listen to this kind of 14 ,it may well prove 15 for them.Of the two 16 of life discussed above,I think young people can learn more from the older generation in the field of 17 .After all,no relationship is the same,18 what might be 19 in one situation might not in another.Advice on careers is more likely to be 20 in a variety of differing situations.1.A.places B.waysC.stylesD.habits2.A.hear of B.look afterC.learn fromD.talk about3.A.joy B.experienceC.kindnessD.courage4.A.decide B.predictC.changeD.explain5.A.dream of B.believe inC.give awayD.give up6.A.choose B.requireC.planD.suggest7.A.also B.neverC.insteadD.only8.A.vacation B.examC.jobD.subject9.A.role B.hobbyC.positionD.task10.A.difficulty B.introductionC.improvementD.advantage11.A.travels B.relationshipscationD.housework12.A.unusually B.differentlyC.quicklyD.patiently13.A.questions B.accidentsC.conversationsD.mistakes14.A.answer B.storyC.adviceD.promise15.A.normal B.helpfulC.enoughD.impossible16.A.fields B.rulesC.eventsD.patterns17.A.study B.workC.sportD.art18.A.but B.ifC.becauseD.so19.A.simple B.hardC.specialD.right20.A.given B.noticedC.followedD.found三、短文改错When I was young,my family moved around a lot,but I went to lots of different schools and meet people from different places and backgrounds.I think of that experience gave me a lot of communication skills.I’m a good listener,and I’m good at help people get on with each other.It proves to being,of course,really usefully atwork.For the last two years,I’ve been running a social club with some of myfriend.It’s a club for elderly people,paying for by the government.Of course,I usemy communication skills there.I think being a good communicator is important part of management,maybe the more important of all.参考答案限时规范练14(必修3 Unit4)一、【篇章导读】本文是说明文。
