A ★★☆☆☆In 2012, I had just recovered from a serious illness when I received an invitation to a writer’s conference in Orlando, Florida. My family and friends persuaded me that a holiday might be just what the doctor ordered, so off I went.Arriving in the Sunshine State was not easy, but I managed to catch a taxi to the hotel. The next morning, I caught another taxi to do some shopping. Later I went to a café to buy some lunch, but having my sandwich and drink in my hands, I saw that all the tables were occupied (占用). Then I heard a friendly voice saying, “You can share my table.”I thankfully sat down with the smiling elderly lady and we shared a happy lunch together. As the meal drew to a close she asked how long I would be in Orlando. I had already told her that I hadn’t hired (租用) a car, and hadn’t realised how costly taking taxis would be. After a while she said, “My dear, don’t use any more taxis. It would be my pleasure to drive you wherever you wish.”I told her that I couldn’t put her to that trouble, but she insisted. She took details of where I was staying and the next morning she drove me to Disney World. She took me through the park’s gates and spent some time with me before leaving me to explore alone. At the end of the day, she returned to take me back to my hotel. The next few days, she drove me around Orlando’s tourist areas. I offered her money but she refused to take any.When we had lunch on my last day, I thanked her for her kindness. I’ll never forget that wonderful lady who filled my holiday in Florida with wonderful memories.21. The author went to Orlando to _____.A. see a doctorB. attend a meetingC. meet a friendD. visit a family member22. What did the elderly lady do?A. She offered her seat to the author.B. She helped the author hire a car.C. She drove the author to a park.D. She bought the author a lunch.23. We can infer from the text that the elderly lady is _____.A. hard-workingB. good-lookingC. well-knownD. kind-hearted24. What’s the best title for the text?A. My holiday heroB. Making a big differenceC. My trip to Disney WorldD. Difficulty in a foreign landB ★★★☆☆What you communicate through your body language and nonverbal signals affects how others see you, how well they like and respect you, and whether or notthey trust you. Unfortunately, many people send confusing nonverbal signals without even knowing it.Jack, Ted and Arlene are all speakers who have got disastrous results while communicating with others.Jack believes he gets along great with others, but if you were to ask any of them, they would say that Jack makes them feel afraid. Rather than just look at you, he seems to eat you with his eyes. And he often shakes your hand so hard that it hurts. Jack is a caring guy who secretly wishes he had more friends, but his nonverbal awkwardness (笨拙) keeps people at a distance.Ted is good-looking, hard-working, and a smooth talker, but he seems to care more about his thoughts than others. When so meone has something to say, Ted’s wild eyes make him look like he wants to speak before they have finished. His inability to listen to others makes him unpopular with many people.Arlene is funny and attractive, but even though she keeps laughing and smiling, she looks nervous. Her shoulders and eyebrows (眉毛) are noticeably raised, her voice is high, and her body is stiff. Being around Arlene makes many people feel uncomfortable.These smart, well-intentioned people try their best to connect with others. The sad thing is that they have no idea of the nonverbal messages they communicate. If you want to communicate effectively, avoid misunderstandings, and enjoy trusting relationships, it’s important to understand how to use body language.25. What’s the problem with Jack?A. He can’t keep a secret.B. He behaves improperly.C. He hates making friends.D. He means to frighten others.26. What do people think about Ted?A. He is caring.B. He is interesting.C. He is not a good listener.D. He is not a smooth talker.27. How is the text mainly developed?A. By using examples.B. By giving instructions.C. By presenting findings.D. By providing explanations.28. What’s the main idea of the text?A. How to read body language.B. How to improve body language.C. Types of nonverbal communication.D. Nonverbal communication in relationships.C ★★★★☆Only Fools and HorsesThe series mixes satire (讽刺), drama and great jokes to produce something that is both laugh-out-loud funny and packed with pity.A hit across the world, from Montenegro to Belgium, Only Fools and Horses can truly be said to be one of the television greats, as it continues to be repeated, loved, and picked up by new audiences almost 30 years since it first appeared on television screens.Open All HoursWith comedy giants Ronnie Baker and David Jason both on screen together it isn’t a surprise t hat this is a much loved comedy. Granville’s half-hearted attempts to find excitement in his boring life and Arkwright’s penny-pinching (吝啬的), shop-proud ways will make you laugh aloud.There are so many moments that people remember —be it Arkwright’s stu tter (口吃) and Granville’s adventurous deliveries. It was these moments and many more that will help ensure that Open All Hours will be repeated and loved by audiences for many more years to come.Fawlty TowersOne of, if not the most well-loved British comedy of all time, the importance and popularity of Fawlty Towers is difficult to exaggerate (夸大).The series was set with unreasonable but believable characters and wonderful performances. Add in excellent short jokes and exciting dialogue, and you get this most popular and well-loved series.BlackadderThe four series of Blackadder remain highly regarded and extremely popular almost 30 years after they began.The only real exception to this is the first series, which is considered by many as being unfunny. However, it’s completely different from the other series of Blackadde r. The humour is darker and less silly.However, because it combines historical research with jokes, satire and some of the cleverest and funniest replies that have ever appeared on British television, Blackadder is hard not to be loved by many people.29. If you’re a fan of Ronnie Baker, you may choose _____.A. BlackadderB. Fawlty TowersC. Open All HoursD. Only Fools and Horses30. Both Only Fools and Horses and Fawlty Towers _____.A. mix short jokes with satireB. are popular among audiencesC. explore the pitiful side of humansD. have been put on across the world31. What can you expect from the Blackadder series?A. Dark humour.B. Unreasonable characters.C. Adventurous stories.D. Historical facts.D ★★★☆☆My parents both love to listen to their car radios. They also love their ongoing argument about which is better — satellite radio or local, publicly supported stations.I get a lot of pleasure from hearing them try to persuade each other of their friendly arguments. They each try to persuade me, too. Both cars have nice sound systems, so they all sound great to me. I refuse to take sides.When I ride with my mother, she listens to radio programs on one of the two local public stations that serve our area. One is a classical music station broadcast by a university. I have to admit, the music usually sounds great, and they also cover college sports and other local events. The other station is an all-volunteer station that plays different kinds of music and news programs. Both stations are mostlylistener-supported, which gives them a nice community (社区) feel. It also gives the programmers freedom to play what they want to hear. Mom loves very much the idea of having members of the community give small amounts of money toward something we can all enjoy.When I’m in the car with my dad, he listens to satellite radio. He pays a small amount of money for the satellite radio, and he thinks it is a great bargain. He says he loves having so many stations to choose from, including all kinds of music and news choices.Mom’s public radio is certainly simpler and much closer to home, but I also e njoy what Dad plays on his car radio. Each has its own merits. I like things just the way they are. I feel like I have the best of both radio worlds.32. What can we learn about the author’s mother?A. She loves satellite radio very much.B. She has a strong sense of community.C. She likes listening to the radio at home.D. She works as a volunteer at a radio station.33. Compared with local public radio, satellite radio _____.A. offers more music programsB. is mainly listener-supportedC. has more station choicesD. is free of charge34. The underlined word “merits” in the last paragraph can best be replaced by“_____”.A. advantagesB. problemsC. chancesD. mistakes35. Which of the following shows the structure of the whole text?(P: Paragraph)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。
人教版高一英语必修四Unit3检测试题及答案（2）
人教版高一英语必修四Unit3检测试题及答案(2)第二部分阅读理解(共两节，满分40分)第一节(共15小题，每小题2分，满分30分)AMany years ago my student asked me the question, "Mrs. Kindred, why do you teach?" Without taking time to reflect, I answered, "Because someday I might say something that might make a difference in someone's life." Even though I was sincere, that wasn't a very good answer and my student didn't let it slide."Let me get this straight," he said, "You went to college for four years so you could come here every day because you have the hope that someday you might say something that will influence someone?" He shook his head as if I were crazy and walked away looking confused . I'm one of those people who look back and wish they had said something smart or witty, or swift.Even though that particular student might no longer wonder why I teach, there are days when I wonder. On those days, I remind myself of the real reasons I teach:It's in my blood. My mother was my most influential teacher, and she was a 6th grade reading teacher until her death in 1990. She instilled(逐渐灌输) in me a love of reading and the knowledge that education opens doors.Teaching is a way to make a difference. If you throw a stone in a pond the ripples go on and on until they reach the shore. You can't have ripples without a "stone." Good teachers throw stones that make a positive difference, and that's what I strive to do.I genuinely love teenagers.I want to share with others what I know and what I have learned through the years. Life is full of ups and downs, and if I can help students avoid some potholes on the road of life, I want to do so. If they'll allow me to celebrate their victories with them, I want to do too.Teaching isn't for everyone, but I know I made the right career choice.46. Why did the student continue to ask the question about the writer’s being a teacher?A. Because he thought her answer was unbelievable.B. Because the writer was insincere.C. Because the student was naughty.D. Because the answer was difficult to understand.47. What do you think of the writer?A. Stupid.B. Honest.C. Conservative.D. Polite.48. According to the text, which of the following is NOT true?A. The writer’s mother has the greatest influence on her.B. The writer’s answer made the student confused.C. In the writer’s opinion, some people in the world are unfit to teach.D. The writer annoyed the student who asked the question.49. We can infer from the text that _________.A. the writer was also a good teacher in schoolB. the writer often plays with her students beside a pondC. the writer devotes herself to teaching and her studentsD. the writer often accompanies the students on their way homeBAmong various programs, TV talk shows have covered every inch of space on daytime television. And anyone who watchesthem regularly knows that each one is different in style. But no two shows are more opposite in content, while at the same time standing out above the rest, than the Jerry Springer and Oprah Winfrey shows.Jerry Springer could easily be considered the king of "rubbish talk". The topics on his show are as surprising as can be. For example, the show takes the ever-common talk show titles of love, sex, cheating, and hate, to a different level. Clearly, the Jerry Springer show is about the dark side of society, yet people are willing to eat up the troubles of other people's lives.Like Jerry Springer, Oprah Winfrey takes the TV talk show to its top. But Oprah goes in the opposite direction. The show is mainly about the improvement of society and different quality of life. Contents are from teaching your children lessons, managing your work week, to getting to know your neighbors.Compared to Oprah, the Jerry Springer show looks like poisonous waste being poured into society. Jerry ends every show with a "final word". He makes a small speech about the entire idea of the show. Hopefully, this is the part where most people will learn something very valuable.Clean as it is, the Oprah show is not for everyone. The show's main audiences are middle-class Americans. Most of the people have the time, money and ability to deal with life's tough problems. Jerry Springer, on the other hand, has more of a connection with the young adults of society. These are 18-to 21year-olds whose main troubles in life include love, relationship, sex, money and drug. They are the ones who see some value and lessons to be learned through the show's exploitation.50. Compared with other TV talk shows, both the Jerry Springer and the Oprah Winfrey shows are ______.A. more interestingB. unusually poplarC. more detailedD. more formal51. Though the social problems Jerry Springer talks about appear unpleasant, people who watch the shows ______.A. show disbelief in themB. are ready to face up to themC. remain cold to themD. are willing to get away from them52. Which of the following is likely to be a topic of the Oprah Winfrey show?A. A new type of robot.B. National hatred.C. Family income planning.D. Street accident.53. W e can learn from the passage that the two talk shows ____.A. have become the only ones of its kindB. exploit the weaknesses in human natureC. appear at different times of the dayD. attract different peopleCCan people change their skin colour without suffering like pop king Michael Jackson? Perhaps yes. Scientists have found the gene that determines skin colour.The gene comes in two versions, one of which is found in 99 per cent of Europeans. The other is found in 93 to 100 per cent of Africans, researchers at Pennsylvania State University report in the latest issue of Science. Scientists have changed the colour of a dark-striped zebrafish to uniform gold by inserting a version of the pigment(色素) gene into a young fish. As with humans, zebrafish skin colour is determined by pigment cells, which contain melanosomes(黑色素). The number, size and darkness of melanosomes per pigment cell determines skin colour.It appears that, like the golden zebrafish, light-skinnedEuropeans also have a mutation(变异) in the gene for melanosome production. This results in less pigmented skin.However, Keith Cheng, leader of the research team, points out that the mutation is dif ferent in human and zebrafish genes.Humans acquired dark skin in Africa about 1.5 million years ago to protect bodies from ultra-violet rays of the sun(太阳光紫外线), which can cause skin cancer.But when modern humans leave Africa to live in northern latitudes, they need more sunlight on their skin to produce vit amin D. So the related gene changes, according to Cheng.Asians have the same version of the gene as Africans, so they pr obably acquired their light skin through the action of some other gene that affects skin colour, said Cheng.The new discovery could lead to medical treatments for skin cancer. It also could lead to research into ways to change skin colour without damaging it like chemical treatment did on Michael Jackson.54. The passage mainly tells us that ________.A. people can not change their skin colour without any painB. the new discovery could lead to search into ways to change skin colour safelyC. pop king Michael Jackson often changed his skin colour as he likedD. scientists have found out that people’s skin colour is determined by the gene55. It can be inferred from the passage that ________.A. nowadays people who want to change their skin colour have to suffer a lot from the damage caused by the chemical treatmentB. Europeans and Africans have the same geneC. the new discovery could help to find medical treatments for skin cancerD. there are two kinds of genes56. Scientists have done an experiment on a dark-striped zebra fish in order to ________.A. find the different genes of humans’B. prove the humans’ skin colour is determined by the pigment geneC. find out the rea son why the Africans’ skin colour is darkD. find out the ways of changing peopl’s skin colour57.

人教版-高一英语必修4-unit3单元测试题Unit 3 A taste of English humour第二部分：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。
AI learnt to fly in a balloon in a race across the Atlantic Ocean in 1992 and became extremely interested in the sport. In the same way that a mountain climber dreams of climbing the world's highest mountain, I dreamed about flying non-stop around the world.I spent six years planning the flight and failed twice before I and my team managed to succeed. For some reason, we had to go first to North Africa to catch the right winds. That added 10,000 kilometres, and another week, to our journey. But because of this, our flight broke all the records for distance and time spent in the air.The most memorable part of the trip for me is that we lived in the air for 20 days and that the rising sun was the most amazing thing we saw. We had to go out of the balloon's capsule (舱), in which we were transported, three times while in the air to repair the fuel (燃料) system. We didn't have any safety equipment but when you are in a situation like that, you just do what you have to do without thinking about feeling afraid.Landing was a fantastic moment. I remember that when I got out of the capsule, I looked at my footprint in the sand. I remembered the astronaut Neil Armstrong, who was so happy to put his footprint on the moon, so far away from Earth. At thatmoment, I was so happy to have my foot back on Earth!21. The author became interested in ballooning because of _____.A. a cross-ocean raceB. a mountain climbC. a childhood dreamD. a long sea journey22. What can be inferred from Paragraph 2 about the author and his team's flight?A. They set a new record.B. They shortened their flight.C. Their flight went very smoothly.D. Their flight covered 10,000 kilometres.23. Why did the balloonists get out of the capsule during the flight?A. To fight their fear.B. To do some repair work.C. To admire the rising sun.D. To check safety equipment.24. The author mentioned Neil Armstrong to show his _____.A. regretB. surpriseC. respectD. pleasureBYou probably laugh at something you find funny, but how much do you really know about jokes and humour? Reader's Digest (RD) questioned several experts to give us some facts about them.RD:What’s the oldest joke in the world?“We can't know the oldest joke in the world because it would have existed earlier than writing,” says Christie Davies, professor of sociology at the University of Reading in the UK. The oldest joke book that's been found so far is the Greek Philogelos. It dates from the 4th century AD, although the jokes date from an earlier time. According to psychologist Steve Wilson, director of National Humor Month (April in the US), it contains 265 jokes.RD: Do some people fail to develop a sense of humour?Rod Martin, professor of psychology at the Western University in Canada, believes that while everyone is born without a sense of humour, as we develop, humour and laughter begin to appear. “Of cou rse, some children are more serious, quiet, and less likely to laugh frequently, but this doesn't mean they don't have a sense of humour.” And according to Steve Wilson, there are no adults who don't have asense of humou r. “Almost everyone is able to deve lop a sense of humour, and I teach people how,” he says.RD: Do people share a sense of humour unique to their own nation?Sense of humour does differ a lot by country, according to an author named Scott Weems. British humour is thought to be absurd (荒谬的) in nature, while American humour has an aggressive quality. According to a study, Germans are found to find everything funny.25. What do we know about the oldest joke book?A. It remains unknown.B. It was written in Greek.C. It was found in the UK.D. It contains the oldest joke.26. What does Rod Martin agree with about people's senseof humour?A. Nobody is born with a sense of humour.B. Some adults lose it when they grow up.C. Childhood is the best time to develop such ability.D. Children have a poorer sense of humour than adults.27. What kind of humour has an aggressive feature?A. British humour.B. German humour.C. Canadian humour.D. American humour.28. Where can you probably find the text?A. In a popular magazine.B. In a research paper.C. In a personal diary.D. In a textbook.CWhen people communicate, they use more than words. People's body language shows important information just like speech does. When someone lies with theirwords, their body language often tells the truth. The next time you wonder if someone is telling you the truth, try watching their hands.A person who is being honest will usually turn one or both of their palms (手掌) towards the other person. If a person is beginning to “open up” or share important information, you may notice them turn their palms towards you. Like most body language, this unconscious (无意识的) gesture usually gives the other person the feeling that the speaker is speaking honestly.When people lie, they tend to hide their palms by putting their hands behind their back or holding them. Others will keeptheir hands in their pockets if they are lying or trying to hide information. Salespeople are sometimes trained to watch out for this specific example of body language when a person is saying that they can't afford a product or service. Sometimes professional liars try to use open-palm gestures to fool others. But a careful listener may tell it is a lie through their body language such as lack of eye contact and touching the nose.Research has also suggested that if people normally turn their palms to face their listeners, they tend to be more honest themselves. If you want people's honesty, talk to them and ask them questions while keeping your palms turned out. This will put pressure on the people you are talking to.Human body language, emotion, and communication are directly connected. By showing that you are honest, with your palms towards people, your body language pushes others to tell you the truth.29. Turning one's palms towards others is a symbol of _____.A. confidenceB. politenessC. patienceD. honesty30. How is Paragraph 3 mainly developed?A. By telling stories.B. By giving examples.C. By making comparisons.D. By providing explanations.31. Talking with your palms open will encourage others to _____.A. behave activelyB. gesture carefullyC. be honest with youD. forget their pressureDThe famous website known as Facebook began as a Harvard University dropout's hobby. It was once limited to university students, but it has now become the largest social networking website in the world. It is a good way for old friends to find each other and for new friends to meet.Facebook was started in 2019 and was then a site that only students with an email address e nding in “edu” could join. It was like being part of a huge but exclusive club. College students throughout the USA joined the website to create large networks. As Facebook's popularity grew, its founder, Mark Zuckerberg, realized even more people would love to sign up for the service. In 2019, Facebook opened its membership to anyone with an email address. Facebook experienced another increase in its popularity.In just minutes, anyone can sign up for the service and start enjoying photos or videos. Most new members also enjoy searching for friends they lost touch with years ago. Whether they knew each other from elementary, middle, high school or college, people around the world reconnect using Facebook's simple tools.Facebook also includes many specialized features. Members write on a friend's “wall”, a special part of each person's page. Friends post short public messages on each other's “walls”, or they can send private (私密的) “messages”. Facebook members also “poke (戳)” each other. Sending a “poke” to a friend is like saying “I'm thinking of you”. Like a real-life poke, a “poke” on Facebook shows you want someone's attention. Membersalso send “gifts”. “Gifts” are little icons (图标) of things you might really give. Members can buy these icons at a low price and send them, showing their appreciation.32. What does the underlined word “exclusive” in Paragraph 2 mean?A. Available only to some people.B. Teaching you something modern.C. Strange and difficult to understand.D. Supporting new ideas and methods.33. How did Mark Zuckerberg increase Facebook's popularity?A. By advertising it online.B. By working with schools.C. By making it open to any email user.D. By sharing students' photos and videos.34. Paragraph 3 mainly talks about _____.A. some ways of using Facebook's toolsB. what people can learn from FacebookC. how people make friends on FacebookD. some features that make Facebook popular35. If a Facebook member wants to get noticed by a friend, he can _____.A. send a “gift”B. send a “poke”C. write on the “wall”D. send long “messages”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。

He was sure that no one had entered his bedroom. The same thing happened that day, and the next, but when the fourth day arrived and he went to get his first toy of the day, the toy jumped out of his hands and said, “I don’t want to play with you!”The same happened with every toy he touched. Finally, an old teddy bear said to him, “Are you surprised why we don’t want to play wi th you? You always leave us so far from our proper places, and we feel uncomfortable and unhappy. Do you have any idea how difficult it is for the books to climb back up onto their shelves, or for the pencils to jump into their box? You have no idea how un comfortable and cold the floor is! We won’t play with you any more until you promise to leave us in our little houses before you go to bed.”The boy remembered how comfortable and content he felt in his bed and how bad he felt when he had once slept in a chair.

It is 2.1 centimeters long and weighs 3.46 grams, setting the new world record for the smallest chicken egg.The Guinness World Record for the smallest chicken egg is 2.7 centimeters.Guinness World Records also recognized the world record for the largest Easter egg hunt: it consisted of (包含) 501,000 eggs that were searched for by 9,753 children accompanied (陪伴) by their parents at the Cypress Gardens Adventure Park in Winter Haven, Florida, USA.Donnie Russell said that he found the egg las t month on his farm in West Virginia and it’s difficult to put the find into words. He said that he and his wife kept about a dozen chickens and gave the eggs away. He said the bird that laid the egg is a normal-size chicken.Donnie Russell dubbed it the John Spencer Russell egg in honor of his two grandsons, and brought it to WVDA headquarters (总部). It measured 2.1 cm by 1.69 cm—about the size of a penny.“West Virginia’s hills are full of surprises. We have a little bit of every-thing,” said Commissioner of Agriculture Gus R. Douglass. “I’m very pleased that Russell and others are keeping agriculture alive in the Mountain State, and that he takes obvious pride in being a West Virginia farmer.”43.

Donnie Russell is really lucky to have got such an eggC. life has been very hard for farmers in West VirginiaD. agriculture is of great importance to West VirginiaDHow funny somebody finds a certain incident depends on age, personal experience, level of education and geographical location. Thus humor is something that is not always the same in another country. What somebody from one area finds interesting may not be amusing at all to somebody from another location. Whether or not someone gets humor is determined by their understanding and influenced by their culture.Let’s take the example of Britain and America. It is often argued that one of the most common differences between the British and American sense of humor is that Americans don’t understand irony (讽刺).One of the major differences seems to be how often both nations use irony. The British use irony on a daily basis, while it is not the foundation of American humor. When Americans use irony, they usually say that they are “only joking”. They feel the need to make a joke more obvious than the British do.The American sense of humor is generally more direct than that in Britain. Their jokes are more obvious and forward, a bit like Americans themselves. British jokes, on the other hand, are more indirect. There is usually a hidden meaning. This comes from the different cultures between the two countries.Certain American comedies have got huge success in Britain and some British comedies are also popular with Americans. Although there are differences between both comic (喜剧的) styles, there is still an understanding of the other sense of humor. Both the British and American versions (译本) of the comedy The Office are hugely successful on both sides of the Atlantic. Both shows have their own cultural differences, yet they portray a lifestyle which both Americans and the British can understand.47. What’s the topic of the passage?A. American comedies and British comedies.B. The importance of humor in improving understanding.C. The differences between British and American humor.D. Humor and jokes in Britain and America.48. The example of Britain and America is used to show ______.A. both Americans and British people like to play jokes in their daily livesB. Americans tend to be more satisfied with their life than the BritishC. people in different countries have different ways to express their feelingsD. people using the same language don’t necessarily share the same sense of humor49. According to the author, the differences between British and American jokes ______.A. have resulted from cultural differencesB. have influences on the English languageC. clearly show their different attitudes towards lifeD. may cause misunderstandings between the two countries50. Which of the following words is the closest in mean ing to the underlined world “portray”?A. Include.B. Describe.C. Replace.D. Prove.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。

Unit3 单元能力测评第一部分阅读理解第一节阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A(2018山西太原高一第二学期期末）It seems no longer the privilege (特权）of young people to get access to new technologies. As a matter of fact, senior citizens have taken advantage of the Internet to enrich their life and have benefited greatly from it including looking through news, using mobile payments, and even enjoying online car-hailing (约车）services.Most of the information read by older netizens is focused on national politics and economy. They also like reading encouraging materials and jokes online. Anyway, what brings them the greatest convenience is that they turn to the web for health advice, especially online hospital appointments. Increasingly, old people’s needs can be satisfied by online services，which are more convenient than those in traditional ways.On the other hand, the Internet is not always safe. There exists the risk of being cheated. Some older users easily misunderstand or are cheated by incorrect information on the Internet. Of those cheated online, 60. 3 percent fall for offers to collect free “red packet”money. And some health-related information they read is misleading. So they should be careful to make out the information. It is the responsibility for the government，families and companies to help the old netizens to be away from the danger online. This way, they will be more willing to use the Internet and the experience on the Internet will be more satisfying.【1】What does the first paragraph tell us?A. The Internet is only preferred by young people.B. Online news readers are mainly senior citizens.C. Old people make better use of the Internet than the young.D. Using mobile phones has become common in old people’s life.【2】Which do old people find the most helpfulonline?A. Positive materialsB. Health advice.C. Mobile payments.D. Traffic service【3】What can protect the old people from being cheated online?A. Warning them not to open red packets.B. Telling them not to read too much information.C. Reminding them to be careful about the risks online.D. Advising them to keep away from the smartphonesB(2018浙江宁波诺丁汉大学附属中学高一第二学期期中）Whether in the home or the workplace, social robots are going to become a lot more common in the next few years. Social robots are about to bring technology to the everyday world in a more humanized way, said Cynthia Breazeal，chief scientist at the robot company Jibo.While household robots today do the normal housework，social robots will be much more like companions who you spend time with than just tools. For example, these robots will be able to tell when someone is happy or sad. This allows them to respond more properly to the user.The Jibo robot, arranged to ship later this year, is designed to be a personalized assistant to help. You can talk to the robot, ask it questions, and make requests for it to perform different tasks. The robot doesn’t just deliver general answers to questi ons ；it responds based on what it learns about each individual in the household. It can do things such as reminding an elderly family member to take medicine or taking family photos.Social robots are not just finding their way into the home. They have potential applications in everything from education to health care and are already finding their way into some of these spaces.Fellow Robots is one company bringing social robots to the market. The company’s “Oshbot” robot is built to assist customers in a store, which can help the customers find items and help guide them to the product’s location in the store. It canalso speak different languages and make recommendations for different items based on what the customer is shopping for.The more interaction the robot has with humans, the more it leams. But Oshbot, like other social robots, is not intended to replace workers, but to work alongside other employees. “We have technologies to train social robots to do things not for us，but with us，”said Breazeal.【4】How are social robots different from household robots?A. They can control their emotions.B. They are more like humans.C. They do the normal housework.D. They respond to users more slowly.【5】What can a Jibo robot do according to Paragraph 3?A. Communicate with you and do operations for you.B. Answer your personal questions and make no requests.C. Take pictures and deliver milk.D. Obey your orders and remind an elderly family member to take pills.【6】We can learn from the last paragraph that social robots will_A. train employeesB. be our workmatesC. improve technologiesD. take the place of workers【7】What does the passage mainly present?A. A new design idea of household robots.B. Marketing plans for social robots.C. Information on household robots.D. An introduction to social robots.C(2018江西南康中学高一第二学期第二次大考）Going green seems to be a fad (时尚）for a lot of people these days. Whether thatis good or bad，we can’t really say，but for some of us，going green is not a fad but a lifestyle.On April 22，2011，we decided to go green every single day for an entire year. This meant doing 365 different green things, and it also meant challenging ourselves to go green beyond easy things. Rather than recycle and reduce our energy，we had to think of 365 different green things to do and this was no easy task.With the idea of going green every single day for a year，Our Green Year started. My wife and I decided to educate people about how they could go green in their lives and hoped we could show people all the green things that could be done to help the environment. We wanted to push the message that every little bit helps.Over the course of Our Green Year, we completely changed our lifestyle. We now shop at organic (有机的) stores. We consume less meat, choosing green food. We have greatly reduced our buying we don’t need. We have given away half of what we owned through websites. Our home is kept clean by vinegar and lemon juice, with no chemical cleaners. We make our own butter, enjoying the smell of home-made fresh bread. In our home anyone caught doing something ungreen might be punished.Our minds have been changed by Our Green Year. We are grateful for the chance to have been able to go green and educate others. We believe that we do have the power to change things and help our planet.【8】What might be the best title for the passage?A. Going Green.B. Protecting the Planet.C. Keeping Open-Minded.D. Celebrating Our Green Year.【9】It was difficult for the couple to live a green life for the whole year because_.A. they were expected to follow the green fadB. they didn’t know how to educate other peopleC. they were unwilling to reduce their energyD. they needed to perform unusual green tasks【10】What can we infer from the last paragraph?A.

Our Green Year is becoming a national campaign.第二节根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填人空白处的最佳选项。

Fortunately, the Garden State has plenty of outdoor spaces to offer. These public parks all have unusual qualities that make them stand out among the rest.Boundary Creek Natural Resource AreaBoundary Creek is a 34-acre park designed for quiet nature study. Families can use the grassy open space and the picnic tables near the parking lot for picnics.A special feature is the observation boardwalks for people to watch the animals without being noticed.Challenge Grove ParkChallenge Grove Park is not a challenge for children with special needs.

Here is a very funny joke about how the English and the Scottish save on train fare.Five Englishmen boarded a train just behind five Scots, who as a group had only bought one ticket. Just before the conductor (售票员) came, all the Scots went into the toilet. As the conductor passed the toilet, he knocked and called, “Tickets, please!” One of the Scots slid a ticket out under the door. It was punched (打孔) and pushed back. When it was safe, all the Scots came out and took their seats. The Englishmen were quite impressed by what the Scots had done. On the trip back, the five Englishmen decided to try this themselves and bought only one ticket. They noticed that the Scots had not bought any tickets this time. Anyway, again, just before the conductor came, the Scots went into one of the toilets, the Englishmen into the other. Then one of the Scots leaned out, knocked on the Englishmen’s toilet and called, “Tickets, please!” When the ticket was slid out under the door, he picked it up and quickly closed the door.English humour shows the ups and downs of life in Britain. Humour helps us to look at the lighter side of things. So, if you want a good laugh, and want to change your attitude to what would otherwise be a difficult situation, turn to a good English situation comedy and have a good time.4.

This is done so that the sick fish will not pollute the water and make the other healthy fish sick. Once you have removed the dying goldfish from the fishbowl, place it in a separate bowlwhich has been filled with bottled mineral water. It is advisable that you do not fill the bowl with tap water (自来水) as there might be chemicals in the tap water which might make your goldfish sick.Change the waterOnce you have separated the sick goldfish from the other fish, it is a good idea to change the water in the bowl a couple of times. At this point of time it is advisable that you do not add any additives (添加剂) or salt to the water. Keep the fish under observation for a couple of hours. If you are lucky, your goldfish will be up and swim like a healthy fish.Give the goldfish medicineIf your goldfish is still lying on the bottom of the fishbowl even after the water change, then you need to give it some medicine. But first you need to look out for signs of diseases. For cloudy eyes, tail and fin rot as well as bloody spots, you can use a fungus eliminator, which can be bought from any pet shop.By keeping the water clean and using a water filter (过滤器) you can prevent many goldfish diseases. If your fish is still sick after using the methods listed above, then you need to take it to experts.8. What would be the best title for the passage?A. How to keep fish in a fishbowlB. How to save a dying goldfishC. How to prevent some goldfish diseasesD. How to keep water in a fishbowl clean9. Upon discovering a sick fish in the bowl, we should .A. have the water in the bowl filtered at onceB. add more bottled mineral water to the bowlC. remove the fish and put it in a bowl filled with tap waterD. take the sick fish out and put it in another separate bowl10. What may be the function of “a fungus eliminator”?A. To produce healthy food for fish.B. To help goldfish take medicine.C. To remove harmful things from a fishbowl.D. To check if there are sick fish in a fishbowl.11. According to the writer, in order to prevent goldfish getting sick, we must first of all .A. check the quality of tap water regularlyB. keep the water in the bowl clean all the timeC. change the water in the bowl several times a dayD. keep the fish in separate bowls filled with clean waterDSteve Spangler has seen how math and science seem like magic ever since he was a kid. When he was small, his dad, who was a scientist and a magician, would show how both magic and science worked together at home. Now that Spangler is an adult, it’s his turn to help kids understand the magic in science.“We’re trying to get kids to think, to wonder, to discover, to explore and to ask questions,” s aid Spangler, 45 now.Spangler began as a science teacher in Colorado and is now a science celebrity (名人) making regular TV appearances to show off some of his coolest experiments.Spangler’s experiments are easy and exciting, which he says help make the f rightening subjects of math and science seem more understandable.Spangler has won awards for promoting science education. He has appeared on Ellen DeGeneres’s show several times to do experiments, including blowing large smoke rings, filling her studio with flying potatoes and demonstrating(示范) an exploding pumpkin trick. He has also developed his own show that you can watch on YouTube called “The Spangler Effect” to show other unusual experiments you can try at home.Spangler believes that kids can learn the principles of doing experiments, including making correct measurements and repeating experiments to make sure the results are correct while still having a lot of fun. This kind of active learning is what Spangler discovered with his father when he was a kid. Back then, he just thought it was magic.“It’s more than an activity,” Spangler said. “It creates an unforgettable learning experience.”12. The goal of Spangler’s experiments is to .A. teach children how to play tricksB. show off his unusual abilityC. make children interested in scienceD. make money by giving different shows13. We can learn from the passage that Spangler .A. was greatly influenced by his fatherB. created the way of active learningC. only does experiments onlineD. has a dream of becoming famous14.
