Unit 1 A land of diversity 专题练习I.阅读理解A(2019·广东省百校联盟第二次联考)Many people wrongly think that cities don't have farms and that fruits and vegetables are only grown in the country. Believe it or not, there are more and more urban farms popping up in cities all over the world.Alexandra Sullivan, a food system researcher in New York City, studies urban agriculture. Urban agriculture is another name for farming and gardening in a city environment. Ms. Sullivan studies everything from tiny gardens in empty lots between buildings to bigger fields that have been planted and grown. According to Ms.Sullivan, “Urban agriculture has existed since cities have, across the world.”The number of humans living in urban areas, or cities, is increasing. The amount of people who want to garden in urban areas is also rising. Ms.Sullivan says, “In small gardens, on rooftops and indoors, they grow fruits, vegetables, grains, and herbs, and raise animals to produce milk, eggs, honey, and meat. They use these foods as supplements to food produced by rural agriculture.” Even though some people who live in urban areas grow crops, urban residents still need to rely on food grown in rural areas. This is because a city doesn't have enough space to grow enough food for everyone living in it.In New York City, urban farmers have come up with many different ways to grow their own produce, even though there isn't a lot of room. For example, Brooklyn Grange is a farming operation that has two rooftop vegetable farms in New York City. All together, the farms are made up of 2.5 acres of rooftop space. This makes Brooklyn Grange one of the largest rooftop farming operations in the world.Brooklyn Grange grows all kinds of things. The farming company sells its vegetables to local residents and restaurants. And because the farms are on rooftops, they are specially adapted to their urban location. They use available space that is not needed for anything else. As more urban farmers find ways to grow food in cities, urban residents will be better able to get fresher materials for their meals.1.Which of the following is Ms.Sullivan's opinion according to the text?A.The number of people living in cities is increasing slowly.B.Urban residents still rely on food grown in rural areas completely.C.Urban agriculture has a history as long as cities.D.Urban agriculture can provide huge income.2.What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A.Farmers.B.City residents.C.Rural residents.panies.3.What can we learn about Brooklyn Grange in New York City from the text?A.It has large farming areas.B.It can only grow single products.C.It produces enough food for citizens.D.It makes use of rooftop space to grow vegetables.4.What may be the best title for the text?A.Farms in CitiesB.Future Food SystemC.Food Grown in CitiesD.Agriculture of New York CityBToday we were heading out to what is arguably one of the most beautiful natural wonders of this region, Saklikent Gorge (峡谷), a 300­meter­deep canyon that is close to Fethiye. However, first, we had to enter the canyon. Before us was a raging river about 20 meters across, and we would have to wade (蹚水) through to get to the entrance of the gorge.I lost my breath when my foot made contact with the water. My whole foot had turned numb. I shot out of the water, fast as a rabbit, screaming like a wild dog. I'm sure it was a sight to see. Dad and Lalika seemed to bear it better, as they were the first to begin heading through the fast flowing waters.Soon it was up to their knees, but battling their way through they were the first of our family to make it across. During this time I was considering if I really wanted to go through with this. The look on Mom's face showed me that there was no alternative. She took my hand and we began making our way through the ice­cold water to the sound of Lalika's cheers. I nearly slipped at one point but thankfully I recovered in time and Mom and I came out of the water half dry and very happy.Then the canyon was in front of us. I began to wade through the softest flowing grey clay that had deposited itself over thousands of years between this magnificent Moorish pink gorge towering over me. I was surprised that the locals hadn't already made a beauty industry out of this, mining this natural resource, when I remembered that thankfully, it was a protected national possession, located in a national park.That didn't stop Dad and Lalika from making a mud pack, as the two of them smoothed the liquid clay all over their faces, arms and legs. The mud also made great war paint and Lalika and I had a really fun time applying it before role playing a fierce battle of the clans (家族). After about 45 minutes of walking, we came to a fork in the canyon, and we decided to return.5.What did the author think of the river?A.Cold.B.Deep.C.Wide.D.Dirty.6.What made the author decide to cross the river?A.Dad and Lalika's example.B.Mom's facial expression.C.Strong determination.D.Family promises.7.Why could Saklikent Gorge be preserved?A.It was hard to enter.B.It belonged to the locals.C.It had no value to develop.D.It had been protected by the government.8.What can we learn about the canyon?A.It is colorful.B.It is muddy.C.It is boring.D.It is scaring.II.语法填空Berlin has the __9__(distinct) of being one of the most beautiful cities in the world. If you're planning to pay a visit to Berlin in Germany, here are a few basic things you need to know.The best time __10__ (visit) this famous city is during one of its long, hot summers, so book a flight to Berlin during the months of June to late August, better __11__ advance.Now that you have __12__ idea about the best time of the year to visit Berlin, what are the must­see places in this lively __13__ (Europe) city? First you should not miss a stop to the Berlin Wall that __14__ (separate) the eastern and western part of Berlin in the past. You should also check out the Reichstag, Checkpoint Charlie, Treptower Park and the Brandenburg Gate.Just as it is the case when __15__ (travel) in any foreign city, you can find quite a few interesting off­the­beaten path routes, __16__ will allow you to discover more about one of Germany's most historical and dynamic(有活力的) cities: Berlin.With all the attractions Berlin has to offer you'll want to know __17__ you can relax at the end of a busy day of sightseeing, so __18__ is good to know Berlin has a great range of Berlin holiday apartments throughout the German capital.III.短文改错(2019·河南驻马店第一次月考)When I was 12, I met Mary. She came to China with her parents, whom taught English in an university. We soon became good friends. She was fluently in Chinese while I had difficulty with my speaking English. In order to help me with my English, we spoke as much English as we can when we were together. Before long, I could speak English well but at the same time I also made progresses in my written English. Luckily, a year later, she had to return back to her country with her parents. And we have out of touch with each other ever since. How I miss her!I.阅读理解A语篇解读:许多人认为城市里没有农场,水果和蔬菜仅生长在农村。

“Her grades are fine;I'm not worried about that,but she just doesn't seem to love learning any more,” Alice's mum said.She's absolutely right.I'd noticed the same thing about her daughter over the previous two or three years when I'd been Alice's middle school English,Latin,and writing teacher,and I have an answer,right there on the tip of my tongue,to what has gone wrong.Yet I'm torn between my responsibility to help Alice and the knowledge that what I have to say is a truth I'm not sure this mother is ready to hear.The truth for this parent and so many others is this:Her child has sacrificed her natural curiosity and love of learning at the altar(圣坛)of achievement,and it's our fault.Alice's parents,her teachers,society at large—we are all supposed to be blamed in this crime against learning.From her first day of school,we pointed her toward that altar and trained her to measure her progress by means of points,scores,and awards.We taught Alice that her potential is tied to her intellect(智力),and that her intellect is more important than her character.We taught her to come home proudly bearing grade As,championship prizes,and college acceptance,and not on purpose,we taught her that we don't really care how she obtains them.We taught her to protect her academic and extracurricular perfection at all costs and that it's better to quit when things get challenging rather than risk losing that perfect record.Above all else,we taught her to fear failure.That fear is what has destroyed her love of learning.1.Both the mother and the author have noticed that ________.A.Alice hates to tell them the truthB.Alice's test scores are not so goodC.Alice chooses several subjects to learnD.Alice doesn't enjoy studying any more2.What do es the underlined word“torn”mean in the passage?A.pained to choose B.guilty to quitC.tired to manage D.certain to decide3.What does the teacher think of the girl?A.Her academic perfection results from her character.B.She is a gifted girl with spirits of challenging.C.She is perfect in her character development.D.Her academic performance is great.4.What leads to the girl's change?A.A few failure experiences.B.Fear of failing to get good grades.C.Her mother's over­protection.D.Her not being accepted by colleges.【解题导语】本文通过Alice的例子说明了父母、老师和社会有时会扼杀孩子的好奇心和对学习的热爱。

He had become financially successful by growing sugarcane at Las Manacas farm in Biran, Oriente Province.Aged six, Castro was sent to live with his teacher in Santiago be Cuba, before being baptized(洗礼)into the Roman Catholic Church at the age of eight. Being baptized enabled Castro to attend the la Salle boarding school in Santiago, where he regularly misbehaved, so he was sent to the privately funded Dolores School in Santiago. In 1945 he transferred to a more famous school, De Belen in Havana. Although Castro took an interest in history, geography and debating at Belen, he did not excel academically, instead devoting much of his time to playing sport.In 1945, Castro began studying law at the University of Havana, where he became involved in student activism, and the violent gangsterism culture within the university.

To be sure, only children experienced some things differently fromthose with sisters and brothers. Many feel more pressure to succeed.They also tend to look only to their parents as role models in theabsence of brothers and sisters.In India, 10-year-old Saviraj Sankpal founded a support group forthe tiny minority of only children. Among other things, the group does volunteer work to counter(反对) the myth that they are not responsible. “People think we’re treat ed too kindly and ruined, ”says Sankpal, a computer engineering student. “But I’d like to remind them how lonely it can get. ”Most only children, however, say they wish for sisters or brothers only when it comes to caring for aging, unhealthy parents. Bri tain’s David Emerson, co-author of the book, The Only Child, says that such a person bears terrible burden in having to make all the decisions alone. Emerson knows from experience: After his father died, he chose to move his elderly mother from their family home, where she was vulnerable(易受攻击的) to house breakers, to a new one with more security. “The move was quite hard on her, and she might feel that I pushed her into it, ” he says. “After all, I am left with that responsibility. ”In the future, more and more only children will likely face similar choices. With working mothers increasing, many families are finding they simply don’t have the time, money or energy to have more than one child. As only children become common, perhaps the world will realize that the charge made against them is unjust. 【文章大意】本文主要讲述了独生子女在社会生活中所遇到的种种困难和各种挑战, 他们要面对社会对独生子女的诸多偏见。

Thanks to the Internet and technology, the world has become one big market, and you can sit in the comforts of your home and shop for anything you want. You no longer have to drive to the actual shops and fish out what you want. Simply filter (筛选) your search, sitting on your sofa, select the desired product, and make the required payment. The shipment will reach your doorstep.However, everything comes at a price; so does online shopping. It's subject to more threats, especially when you make online shopping mistakes. For example, you may be an impulsive (冲动的) buyer and buy something without reading all the details of the product properly. If you don't read the product description carefully, there are high chances that the item you receive might not match what you expect.The biggest hurdle in online shopping is that you cannot inspect your product beforehand. Therefore, take a cue from the experiences of other consumers from the online posts. Additionally, you may make mistakes like giving an incorrect address, typing incorrect quantity details. Such mistakes can make you end up getting a delayed delivery.Not following safety tips while shopping is also a common mistake you may commit. For instance, you may not take into account other charges, or use a public Wi­Fi to make a purchase, which may give away your card details. So ensure online safety while making a purchase online.Luckily, if some mistake has occurred, you can make an attempt to repair it. For example, you can contact the customer service and register your complaint. It's better to have a written record by also sending an email to the company. It's advisable to have your purchase transaction well documented, so that you can provide legal evidence to the company.1.If you don't read the product descriptions thoroughly, you'll probably ________.A.forget to follow safety tipsB.be addicted to online shopping easilyC.receive an item you don't wantD.make a purchase as you expect2.What can prevent the product reaching you in time?A.Not reading its consumer reviews.B.Not posting letter to the company in advance.C.Not taking other charges into consideration.D.Not checking information before placing an order.3.Your card information may be stolen if you do online shopping ________.A.with a public Wi-FiB.on a private websiteC.in your friend's storeD.in a trustworthy company4.What should we do when online shopping goes wrong?A.Make a list of your requirements.B.Report the online shop to the government.C.Send the purchase information to the police.D.Get your complaint registered at the customer service.参考答案: 1.C; 2.D; 3.A; 4.D解析: 1.[细节题。

“Her grades are fine;I'm not worried about that,but she just doesn't seem to love learning any more,” Alice's mum said.She's absolutely right.I'd noticed the same thing about her daughter over the previous two or three years when I'd been Alice's middle school English,Latin,and writing teacher,and I have an answer,right there on the tip of my tongue,to what has gone wrong.Yet I'm torn between my responsibility to help Alice and the knowledge that what I have to say is a truth I'm not sure this mother is ready to hear.The truth for this parent and so many others is this:Her child has sacrificed her natural curiosity and love of learning at the altar(圣坛)of achievement,and it's our fault.Alice's parents,her teachers,society at large—we are all supposed to be blamed in this crime against learning.From her first day of school,we pointed her toward that altar and trained her to measure her progress by means of points,scores,and awards.We taught Alice that her potential is tied to her intellect(智力),and that her intellect is more important than her character.We taught her to come home proudly bearing grade As,championship prizes,and college acceptance,and not on purpose,we taught her that we don't really care how she obtains them.We taught her to protect her academic and extracurricular perfection at all costs and that it's better to quit when things get challenging rather than risk losing that perfect record.Above all else,we taught her to fear failure.That fear is what has destroyed her love of learning.1.Both the mother and the author have noticed that ________.A.Alice hates to tell them the truthB.Alice's test scores are not so goodC.Alice chooses several subjects to learnD.Alice doesn't enjoy studying any more2.What do es the underlined word“torn”mean in the passage?A.pained to choose B.guilty to quitC.tired to manage D.certain to decide3.What does the teacher think of the girl?A.Her academic perfection results from her character.B.She is a gifted girl with spirits of challenging.C.She is perfect in her character development.D.Her academic performance is great.4.What leads to the girl's change?A.A few failure experiences.B.Fear of failing to get good grades.C.Her mother's over­protection.D.Her not being accepted by colleges.【解题导语】本文通过Alice的例子说明了父母、老师和社会有时会扼杀孩子的好奇心和对学习的热爱。

【难句分析】We taught Alice that her potential is tied to her intellect(智力),and that her intellect is more important than her character.分析:这是一个复合句,含有两个that引导的宾语从句。

We是主语,taught是谓语,两个that在从句中均不充当成分。

译文:我们教给Alice的是她的潜力和她的智力是联系在一起的,并且她的智力比她的性格更重要。

1.D 考查细节理解。

根据第一段中的“but she just doesn't seem to love learning any more”和第二段中的“I'd noticed the same thing about her daughter”可知,Alice 的妈妈和作者都注意到Alice不再喜欢学习。

A项和C项文中没有提到;根据第一段中的“Her grades are fine”可知,B项错误。

2.A 考查词义猜测。

根据画线词后的“between my responsibility...and the knowledge that what I have to say is a truth”可知,作者在两者之间很难选择。

3.D 考查细节理解。

根据第三段中的“We taught her to protect her academic and extracurricular perfection at all costs”可知,Alice的学业表现很好。

根据第三段的“We taught Alice t hat her potential is tied to her intellect(智力),and that her intellect is more important than her character”可知A项错误;根据第三段倒数第三句中的“that it's better to quit when things get challenging rather than risk losing that perfect record”可知B项错误;根据第三段的倒数第二句“Above all els e,we taught her to fear failure”可知C项错误。

4.B 考查细节理解。

根据第三段中的“We taught her to protect...That fear is what has destroyed her love of learning”可知,害怕失败毁掉了Alice对学习的热爱。

二、单句语法填空1.They are likely ________ (fire) by the company just because of their fault.答案:to be fired Sb. be likely to do sth. “某人可能做某事”。

主语they与fire之间为被动关系,故应填不定式的被动形式。

2.The majority of the interviewees ________ (prefer) watching TV at home to going to the cinema.答案:prefer the majority of ... 作主语时,谓语动词的数与of后的名词保持一致。

由interviewees可知谓语动词应用复数形式。

3.It suddenly occurred ________ him that he should adopt the homeless child.答案:to It (suddenly) occurred/occurs to sb. that ... “某人突然想起某事”。

4.Whoever breaks the school rules will surely receive ________ (punish).答案:punishment 句中动词receive后缺宾语,故应填名词punishment作宾语。

5.We should not have ________ (race) discrimination.答案:racial 句中缺少一形容词来修饰名词discrimination, 故填racial “种族的”。

6.She became the first black woman ________ (elect) to the Senate.答案:to be elected 当名词或代词前有序数词或最高级修饰时,则常用动词不定式来充当其后置定语,且elect与black woman之间为被动关系,故填to be elected。
