AIn the mornings Alain Pepin works in a surveying office,doing clerical (文书的) work,but in the afternoons and at weekends he does something much more exciting—he is an underwater stuntman (特技演员).In this week’s article he tells us what a summer day in his life is like.What time do you get up?A summer day for me starts around 7 am.I have breakfast and ride my bike to work.I start work at 8 am.I spend all the morning in front of my network computer working until lunchtime.What do you do after work?Well,I leave the office at 1 pm and have lunch.If the weather is fine,I pack my equipment and set off to the location of the stunt.When I get there,I set up the equipment and get into the water.This is when the fun starts.I move about in and under the water in a wetsuit and helmet performing tricks.It’s quite tiring though,because each stunt is different and takes a different length of time.A photo shoot usually takes a long time to complete because everything has to be perfect.What do you do when you are not diving?I enjoy water-skiing,kayaking and snorkelling(带呼吸管潜泳).I spend most of my sparetime,however,planning,practicing and training for my stunts.How do you like working underwater?I love it.It can be a bit boring in the winter,though,when the weather is cold.It is difficult to get a swimming pool all to myself so I can practice.But when I’m diving,I really enjoy it.Every time I come home after work,I feel full of energy and I have a great sense of achievement.【语篇导读】本文是应用文。

高考题型提能练二十三 Unit 23 ConflictⅠ.阅读理解AThe Japanese like parties.From ancient times, a party becomes enlivened (活泼) when someone starts singing and others keep applauding.Having such a custom, the Japanese can easily sing in front of others without feeling embarrassed.This seems to be one of the reasons that karaoke has been largely accepted in Japanese society.It is now widely recognized that the use of karaoke started at a snack bar in KobeCity, one of the three biggest cities in Japan.It is said that when a guitarist could not come to perform at the bar due to illness, the owner of the bar prepared tapes of accompaniment recordings, and people enjoyed singing to the tapes.It was at that time that karaoke appeared.Holding a microphone and singing a son g to the accompaniment of an “orchestra (管弦乐队)〞， you can feel like a professional singer.For soldiers living in a stressful society, there is no other entertainment activity that can make them feel so refreshed.It is a typical way to relax for Japanese businessmen.They use it to take away their stress after work.However, there is an obstacle to this: since most Japanese houses are still made of wood, it would be very annoying to the neighbors to sing into a microphone at night.Seizing upon the opportunity, businessmen created the karaoke box, a roadside facility containing karaoke equipment.Karaoke boxes are soundproofed rooms, closed with a door, placed on roadsides where people can sing.The first “Karaoke box〞 was placed in a rice camp in the countryside in 1984.It wasbuilt from a converted freight car (改装的货运车).Now, the karaoke boom has even spread abroad and it has also been attracting the attention of the countries trying to improve their literacy rate (识字率) as a good educational tool.1.According to the text, we can learn that karaoke ________.A.originated from the biggest city of JapanB.originated in the form of singing to tapesC.can help you achieve the level of professional singersD.first appeared in the army to relieve stress for soldiers2.The underlined word “soundproofed〞 in Paragraph 4 most probably means “________〞.A.recording sounds repeatedlyB.receiving sound signalsC.making sound more clearD.stopping sound from being heard outside3.What can be inferred from the text?A.Karaoke was started in a bar during a party.B.A guitarist was the originator who brought the karaoke into being.C.Karaoke was very common as a form of entertainment at home when it was born.D.Karaoke is used as a way of education in some countries.4.What is the text mainly about?A.What karaoke boxes are like.B.How karaoke boxes were created.C.The origins and development of karaoke.D.Karaoke becomes a popular form of entertainment.B(2016.淮北五校联考)This is the most exciting kayaking expedition (皮划艇探险) possible for beginner kayakers. You can expect to experience a whole range of different conditions and scenery. This expedition is a total of 8.27 km in distance and it actually enters the streams in the North of Ubin and exits in the South.Three and a half kilometers of pure mangroves (红树林), makes this the longest pure mangrove kayaking expedition in Singapore. The distance spent inside the mangrove gives you the maximum opportunity to witness wildlife within the mangrove ecosystem. Come to experience the challeng e of operating your kayak through the labyrinth (迷宫) of waterways and be amazed at the calm and quiet beauty of the wetlands. This last corner of natural wilderness in Singapore is so inaccessible, that very, very few have ever experienced it — which makes this a truly special program.Most Recent Traveler ReviewsTraveler A: Traveled from bottom to top of Singapore in rush hour traffic in order to get to Ubin for a 9：30 start — only to find no guide there. Although, once he arrived, the guide was lovely —offering a very knowledgeable tour and lots of enthusiasm around a beautiful part of the world —our 6hour kayaking trip was actually over before 2：30 pm, despite only hitting the water at 12：00.Traveler B: The guides were nice, however the biggest disappointment was the timing. We thought we were going for a 4hour kayak but were back in 2 hours and that included the prekayak safety talk. The mangroves are lovely but we were told that a storm was near. We felt that there had never been any intention of going out for longer.5.What is special about the kayaking trip for travelers is that they ________.A.have a good relaxation by kayakingB.feel the challenge of kayakingC.enjoy the beauty of the wetlandsD.experience the wonder of mangroves6.Which of the following information is TRUE about the kayaking expedition?A.The time, distance and cost are referred to.B.The kayaking trip starts at 9：30 am and ends at noon.C.The distance spent inside the mangrove is 3.5 kilometres.D.The mangrove wetlands of Ubin lie in the south of Singapore.7.Which is the common point referred to by the two travelers?A.The unpleasant weather.B.The shortened distance.C.The lovely wildlife.D.The guide's service.8.What can we learn from the passage?A.The safety of the kayaking travelers is not well guaranteed.B.The ecosystem of Ubin nature reserve is well protected.C.The timing of the kayaking trip is satisfactory on the whole.D.Travelers' complaints may not be considered by the traveling company.CEveryone looks forward to progress, whether in one's personal life or in the general society.Progress indicates a person's ability to change the way he is living at the moment.Progress must lead to a better life and a better way of doing things.All these, however, remain true only in so far as people want to accept technology andmove forward by finding new and more efficient ways of doing things.However, at the back of the minds of many people, especially those who miss the “good old days〞， efficiency comes with a price.When communication becomes more efficient, people are able to contact one another no matter where they are and at whatever time they wish to.The click of a button allows people miles apart to talk or see each other without even leaving their homes.With the communication gadgets,_such as mobile phones and iPads, people often do not take the effort to visit one another personally.A personal visit carries with it the additional feature of having to be in the person's presence for as long as the visit lasts.We cannot unnecessarily excuse ourselves or turn the other person off.With efficiency also comes mass production.Such is the nature of factories and the success of industrialization today.Factories have improved efficiency.Unskillful tasks are left to machines and products are better made and produced with greater accuracy than any human hand could ever have done.However, with the improvements in efficiency also comes the loss of the personal touch when making these products.For example, many handicrafts (手工艺品) are now produced in a factory.Although this means that supply is better able to increase demand, now that the supply is quick and efficient, the demand might fall because mass production lowers the quality of the handicraft and it is difficult to find unique designs on each item.Nevertheless, we must not commit the mistake of analyzing progress only from one point of view.In fact, progress has allowed tradition to keep up.It is only with progress and the invention of new technology that many old products can be brought back to their old state.New technology is required for old products to stay old.It is people's attitude towards progress that causes the type of influence that technology has on society.Technology is flexible.There is no fixed way of makinguse of it.Everything depends on people's attitude.The worst effects of progress will fall on those who are unable to rethink their attitudes and views of society.When we accept progress and adapt it to suit our needs, a new“past〞 is created.9.The under lined word “gadgets〞in Para. 2 is closest in meaning to“________〞.A.toolsB.messagesC.barriersD.skills10 pared with homemade handicrafts, machinemade products________.ck great accuracyck the personal touchC.are of high valueD.are quite welcome11.What can be learned about technology from Paragraph 4?A.It can destroy old traditions.B.It can lead to social progress.C.It can be used to correct mistakes.D.It can be used to preserve old products.12.What can be concluded from the last paragraph?A.Progress can suit the needs of daily life.B.People review the past with great regret.C.Technology should be introduced in a fixed way.D.People's attitude decides the use of technology.Ⅱ.任务型阅读Christmas comes with its share of joys and celebrations but also comes with its share of headaches. One of the biggest problems that create stress for people during the Christmas season is the shopping. 1.________Shopping onlineOnline shopping has become one of the easiest and most effective means of doing Christmas shopping. 2.________These are usually only online specials that act much like coupons (优惠券). There are almost always special promo codes that will reduce shopping payment or give a percentage discount.Begin the shopping early3.________ The longer the shopping progress is given, the less stress it creates. Make time to go before the lastminute Christmas rushes. Lastminute shopping often causes a great deal of frustration and difficulty. Lastminute shopping often takes more time because there are fewer items left and it is difficult for you to make a choice.Keep away from the crowdsThere are times when people are not regularly shopping that can open up opportunities for more stressfree shopping. Busier times mean larger crowds t o fight, longer lines for checking out and more waiting in general. 4.________ Shopping at less crowded times makes the whole shopping experience much easier.Christmas shopping does not have to be the nightmare that many people dread (害怕). 5.________ Take the time to plan out the shopping, avoid crowds and slow down to enjoy the experience.A.Many shops are extending their hours and making it easier to shop with fewer crowds.B.Search for special promo codes.C.Begin the progress of Christmas shopping early.D.Instead, Christmas shopping can be an enjoyable experience.E.We can do the followings to help make our holiday season more peaceful.F.Online shopping helps keep away from the crowds.G.It is frightening if you don't plan it before.Ⅲ.语法填空(2016·南昌调研)Some inventions happen in strange ways. The potato chip is one of them.Moon's LakeHouse was 1.________ restaurant in New York in the 1850s. George Crum was the cook there. Many rich people often came to the restaurant 2.________ (enjoy) his cooking.The thing 3.________ really upset Crum was when a customer complained about the food and sent it back to the kitchen to be done over.

Ancient Greek theaters were built in naturalopen-air sites on conveniently shaped hills. This allowed a great mass of people to enjoy a show at a time. Due to this, actors placed emphasis on exaggerated （夸张的）action and speech. And colorful symbolic masks and costumes were used.The Medieval TheaterThe Medieval theater started in churches. That's why medieval plays were about Bible stories. At first, it became a custom for priests （牧师）to act out brief scenes during Christmas and Easter. These acts attracted large crowds. Fin ally the church refused to allow priests to participate in any such events again, so ordinary people began these performances outside. Performances were set in the tow n square, with several stage sett ings around it.The Elizabethan TheaterThe England's theater developed rapidly in the years following the defeat of the Spanish Armada. The dominant feature of Elizabethan theater was the stage. It has three parts: The fore stage for outside seen es; the inner stage for scenes in side a build ing; an upper stage or balc ony for various purposes. The reason for this design is that there were no scene changes, or breaks during the play. Very little sce nery was used, so the actors had to create a scene through their voices and dialogues. This led to a more poetic script, and poets became the main source of script writing.The Restoration TheaterSome of the plays told sad stories, but the majority of the plays were really funny. Many specialized mach ines were used to create the scene. The stage was a very clever idea, in that on the sides of the stage large back shutters （百叶窗）were pain ted with the scene.语篇解读：本文主要介绍了几家过去的剧院。

B(2019·湖北四市七校联考)It was a normal school day for senior Solymar Solis until an unexpected visitor arrived. Her dad, Sgt. Carlos Solis Melendez, surprised her by coming home early from Kuwait and visiting her unannounced at Spring Valley High School in South Carolina.After serving in Kuwait for nine months, Melendez returned home a week earlier than his daughter expected. He held balloons and flowers in a classroom as he sat at a student's desk to blend in with the crowd. “It came to my mind like ‘How is she going to react？’，”he recalled the heartwarming moment.“Is she going to be happy and run to me and hug me, or cry? That was all going on through my mind.”As unsuspecting Solymar entered the classroom, she was soon overcome with emotion, immediately bursting into tears and covering her mouth. She didn't talk. She was just crying. She was overwhelmed with everything. She thought it was a dream.Melendez was a single parent so when he was deployed (调动), he got his sister to live with his daughter. When he was coming back and talking to his sister, both of them came to the conclusion that they should do something special for his daughter. Melendez and his sister got in touch with the school, and they planned this whole being-in-the-classroom thing, and it turned out perfect.The two are very much looking forward to some good daddy-daughter time now that he's home.“It means everything，” Melendez said of being able to surprise his daughter this way. “After all the sacrifices she's made, she deserves all the special arrangements and specialoccasions and celebrations.
