It speaks1 than words. According to specialists, our bodies send out more2 than we realize. In fact, non-verbal communication takes up about 50% of what we really3 . And body language is particularly4 when we attempt to communicate across cultures. Indeed, what is called body language is so5 a part of us that it's actually often unnoticed. And misunderstandings occur as a result of it.6 , different societies treat the7 between people differently. Northern Europeans usually do not like having8 contact even with friends, and certainly not with9 . People from Latin American countries 10 , touch each other quite a lot. Therefore, it's possible that in 11 , it may look like a Latino is 12 a Norwegian all over the room. The Latino, trying to express friendship, will keep moving 13 .

A. noticed B. pleased C. respected D. treated三、阅读理解(共2题;共24分)(一)There are various ways in which to read body language so that you can understand how someone is feeling. Reading emotional clues(线索) is one of them.Crying is considered to be caused by an explosion of emotion in most cultures. Oftentimes crying is considered a sign of sadness, but crying can also be an expression of happiness. Crying can also come about through laughter and humor. Thus, when judging crying, you'll need to look for other signs to determine the meaning of the crying. Crying can also be forced in order to gain sympathy or to cheat others. This practice is known as "crocodile tears", an expression that draws on the wrong idea that crocodiles "cry" when catching prey(猎物).Signs of threat include v-shaped eye brows, wide eyes, and an open or down-turned mouth. In a similar way, Arm tightly crossed over the other is a common sign that the person is angry and is closing himself off to you.When people show anxiety, they display increased facial movements, and their mouth made into a thin line. Individuals who are anxious may also play with their hands, unable keep them in one spot. Anxiety can also or have nervous legs. It can be conveyed when people seemingly unconsciously(无意识地) tap their feet or have nervous legs.Embarrassment can be expressed by turning the eyes or shifting them away, turning of the head and controlled or even tense smiles. If someone looks down at the floor a lot, they are probably shy, afraid, or embarrassed. People also tend to look down when they are upset, or trying to hidesomething emotional. People are often thinking and feeling unpleasant emotions when they are in the process of staring at the ground.There are also some signs of pride. People show pride by displaying a small smile, holding their head backward, and putting their hands on their hips.(1)In what situation may one have "crocodile tears"?()A.When he is sad.B.When he cheats others.C.When he supports others.D.When he is angry.(2)What might a man do when angry? ()A.Shape his eye brows into a "w".B.Sigh heavily.C.Cross his arms tightly.D.Open his eyes wide.(3)What do we know about the emotional clues in the text? ()A.Most of them show negative feelings.B.They usually express positive emotions.C.They can be controlled well be humans.D.They are good for people's health.(4)What is the best title for the passage? ()A.How to use body languages?B.How to read emotional clues?C.What expressive emotions we have?D.What are body languages?(二)You probably think you know about London’s problems. The people are unfriendly, the prices are expensive, and the food is terrible — so why do so many tourists go there?London was named the world’s most popul ar city between July and September 2013. It edged out other world-famous cities, welcoming 4.9 million visitors. Amazingly, this was an increase of almost 19.5 percent on 2012 — the year when the Olympics happened.So can London’s success be explained? Wel l, maybe. As the English writer Samuel Johnson once said, “When a man is tired of London, he is tired of life.” London life is crazy and expensive, but if you can think of something, you can probably do it there.Anywhere in the city, you can often look around a great museum, watch a concert at a historic interest, or dance the night away in a cool nightclub.And it’s not just about culture — there are also world-famous sporting places. Many tourists like to watch soccer matches at stadiums such as Chelsea’s Stamford Bridge. Tourists even came to watch British tennis player Andy Murray’s famous victory at the Wimbledon tennis tournament (锦标赛) in 2013.Yes, but what about the food? Well, even if you don’t like British food —and if you’ve never had real fish and chips, then perhaps you should wait until you’ve tried them — there is plenty of great food from all over the world available in London’s many restaurants.London, like many of its buildings, has a long history, but also never lacks a vibrant pulse.

Evolving(演变)over the course of human history, languages are a reflection of our cultural and societal attitudes. Today, surrounded(包围)by social media, television, movies, and, of course, books, the ability to read and write is important to expressing one's feelings. Most humans acquire language in early childhood and speak fluently when they are about three years old, but our continued relationship with language gives shape and meaning to our lives.________Take it slow. Many readers feel that they read too slowly, especially compared withothers.________The best readers are flexible(灵活的)— slowing down when needed — and always have a dictionary at hand.Read aloud. When humans first began reading written words, it was unusual to read in silence.________Try listening to the author reading their own work — you'll be surprised to find how clearly it comes through on the page.Write. Writing and reading go hand-in-hand: how and what you read affects how and what you write, and the best readers often make the best writers. But while much can be learned from close, repeated readings, there are many pleasures to language that can only be experienced through the practice of writing.________Tell your friends. All of the literature is essentially communication from an individual's inner voice to an audience.________It's a good way to see the world from someone else's eyes and, in the process, carefully examine your own reaction to what you're reading.A. But the truth is that the faster you read, the less likely you are to understand fully what you're reading.B. Can you remember the first piece of writing that transported you to another world?C. There is something magical about sharing books with friends or a book club.D. Try writing every day for a month, and you will never read the same again.E. Reading out loud is one of the best ways to improve your reading ability.F. Here are 4 ways to become a better reader.G. In no time, you'll be appreciating novels like fine wine.五、语法填空(共6分)1.The man ________( app roach) her and suddenly he took out a dagger, “Give me your purse!”2.We shall defend our motherland ________ the invaders, whatever the cost may be.3.Experts say adults need at least 7 to 8 hours of sleep a night to keep their body ________(function) well.4.When I reached home, my husband was lying on the floor, ________(entertain) the kids with toys.5.The film is so moving that she usually watches it with her face ________(bathe) in tears.6.He will ________(represented) our class to sing at the school singing contest.六、书面表达(共25分)The best example of universally understood body language may be the smile. A smile can help us get through difficult situation and find friends in a world of strangers.A smile can open doors and tear down walls.要求:1)无须写标题;2)内容只需涉及一个方面;3)词数为100左右。

[A]The World Around UsChannel (频道): C8A study of the ancient Egyptian pyramids (⾦字塔) and the area around the River Nile in Egypt. The filming of this programme is a work of art as it is so thoughtfully done. As well as the obvious camels, there are also many other desert animals and plant life.Summer HolidaysChannel: M6Some of the best summer holidays are on offer this year. Tonight’s programme shows a weekend in Disneyland in Paris, cheap sailing holidays in the Mediterranean and a shopping and sightseeing trip to New York.The Creative MindChannel: C4One of the most popular programmes on TV at the moment, The Creative Mind has different artistic themes (主题) from exhibition reviews, information about major and smaller museums, and interviews with artists, writers, actors and musicians. Prepared for Special MomentsChannel: TF1The fun cookery programme that offers lots of exciting ideas from children’s birthday parties to that candlelit dinner for the boss and his wife. Easy to follow step by step instructions that show you how to make your dinner party a little bit special. Born to RunChannel: W9An interesting story of a young man with learning difficulties who overcame (克服) the problems in his life, through his great talent (天赋) for athletics. This is a true story of how one person made the most of his life and also helped many other people with similar problems.21. Which channel should you turn to if you are very interested in wildlife?A. C4.B. M6.C. C8.D. W9.22. Which programme is suitable for those who like watching TV interviews?A. The World Around Us.B. Summer Holidays.C. The Creative Mind.D. Prepared for Special Moments.23. Which of the following words can best describe the hero of Born to Run?A. Creative.B. Dishonest.C. Self-centered.D. Strong-minded.[B]Madeleine Hamilton’s school in Franklin, Tennessee, recently made a big decision: Recess (课间休息) would come back. Madeleine and her sixth-grade classmates would go outside for 20 minutes every day. They could catch up with friends and kick a soccer ball around. “Recess is the one break in the day to relax and have fun,” she says.Most middle school students don’t get that chance. That’s be cause most middle schools don’t have recess anymore. Experts say that about 40 percent of U.S. school districts have cut recess time.Now, more and more experts agree: Schools should put recess back on the schedule.Students have been heading outside for recess since at least the 1800s. But in the 1980s, some U.S. schools started to cut recess. Why? American students weren’t doing as well in school as students in other countries. To catch up, many schools in the U.S. cut recess. This made more time in the schedule for important subjects like science and math.But research shows that taking a break can actually help students learn. Your brain can get overwhelmed (应接不暇的) when you move from subject to subject without a break. That makes it harder for you to remember new information. Scientists say that resting your brain helps it work better.Even adults (成年⼈) have started taking breaks to rest their brains — and play. At Google, employees can stop working to use the office’s LEGO station. And workers at Faceboo k can play video games in the company’s arcade (游戏机厅).Recess doesn’t just help students learn. Moving around can also help keep kids healthy. People who exercise daily can avoid extreme sadness. They are also less likely to become overweight.Of course, kids can get hurt playing sports like dodgeball. Some schools have cut recess to avoid broken arms and legs. Schools also need adults to keep students safe on the playground during recess. Some schools can’t afford to pay anyone to do this job.And 73 percent of school-age kids in America play sports or do other athletic activities after school. Do they really need to take time out of busy school days for recess?24. How does Madeleine feel about her school’s big decision?A. Worried.B. Excited.C. Moved.D. Surprised.25. Why did many U.S. schools cut recess in the 1980s?A. To ensure students’ safety.B. To shorten students’ school days.C. To save time for students to study.D. To let students play sports after school.26. What’s the real purpose of the L EGO station at Google?A. To help workers relax.B. To keep workers strong.C. To provide new information for workers.D. To help workers learn how LEGO works.27. What does the underlined part “this job” refer to?A. Teaching students how to play sports like dodgeball.B. Protecting students from getting hurt during a break.C. Designing after-school athletic activities for students.D. Giving students medical care if they are hurt at school.[C]What do you usually do when a flying insect lands on your arm? Most likely you blow it away. But what if that bug were a ladybug (瓢⾍)? Then chances are you would let it stay. What is it about ladybugs that we like?Farmers once thought ladybugs were a good luck sign. A ladybug in the field meant that the crops (庄稼) would be successful and the weather would be good. The farmers may have been exaggerating (夸⼤) about what a very small bug can do, but in fact ladybugs do help out with the crops. They eat harmful insects.Actually, it is not the adult ladybug that eats t he other insects. It’s the ladybug larvae (幼⾍). Ladybugs lay their eggs on leaves that are covered with aphids or other insects. When the larvae come out of the eggs, they are very hungry and will eat mites, aphids, mealybugs, green flies, and other crop-destroyers.A single ladybug larva can eat over 1,000 aphids in one day. In the 1800s, ladybugs were brought all the way from Australia to California and set free among orange trees that were dying from being eaten by insects. The little red and black “eating machines” completely saved all the trees.Ladybugs go about their daily business without worrying much about anything. Very few birds or insects will eat a ladybug because it gives off something that isdangerous to eat. Ladybugs also protect themselves by playing dead. They fall off leaves and remain very still until their enemy goes away.So next time you see a ladybug, think about what it may be up to. Maybe it is off to save an orange tree. Maybe its next move will be to fall off a leaf and play dead or stand up to a bird about 100 times its size. Maybe it’s letting you know that the weather will be good tomorrow. Who knows? Ladybugs are special that way.28. What do we know about mites and aphids?A. They do harm to the crops.B. They eat more than they should.C. They are food for adult ladybugs.D. They are the enemy of ladybug larvae.29. Why were ladybugs brought from Australia to California in the 1800s?A. To report the weather for farmers.B. To increase their number.C. To do research on them.D. To save orange trees.30. What does the underlined part “stand up to” in the last paragraph probably mean?A. Play with.B. Worry about.C. Get along with.D. Fight back against.31. What does the author think of the ladybug?A. It is a crop-destroyer.B. It is a good luck sign.C. It is a little flying helper.D. It is a big eating machine.[D]Each year, people are becoming more and more worried about the future of our planet. People are now starting to agree —global warming will certainly make a dif ference to the world’s weather. While some parts of the world may have morefloods (洪⽔), some other parts might have long periods of dry weather. All of this will have a serious influence on the world’s agriculture (农业). And that could make it difficult for us to get enough food to survive.This explains the idea behind the Svalbard Global Seed Vault (种⼦库). The Seed Vault is built into a mountain on an island near the North Pole. The purpose is to protect the world’s agriculture from future disasters. This may not just be a question of global warming. Perhaps there will be a major nuclear disaster or war one day. These things won’t be a problem for Svalbard.Some experts think that the population of the earth will probably go up by 50% in the next 40 years. Because of climate change, it probably won’t be easy for some plants to survive. Having many different types of plants will be necessary for agriculture to adapt to (适应) changes in the environment. In the Svalbard Global Seed Vault, there is space for 4.5 million types of seed. At the moment there are over 770,000 different types there.Any country in the world can leave seeds in Svalbard without paying. The seeds of some plants, such as peas, only survive for 20 to 30 years. But others will last for hundreds of years.In 2028, the Svalbard Vault will celebrate its 20th birthday. 200 years in the future, it’s possible that the ice caps will disappear. Even if this happens, Svalbard will be safe. That’s because it is on a mountain and will be above the sea level. And because it is so close to the North Pole, even if their electricity stops working, the ice will keep a cool temperature of -3.5℃ to keep the seeds in good condition. But the best protection is the fact that it is in such a faraway place. After all, maybe one day this will be the most important building in the whole world.32. What does the first paragraph mainly introduce?A. The role of agriculture.B. The reason for global warming.C. The future problems we’ll face.D. The planet where we’ll liv e in the future.33. What is the Seed Vault mainly used for?A. Storing plant seeds.B. Growing more plants.C. Discovering new plants.D. Providing humans with food.34. What do we know about the Seed Vault?A. It needs more space.B. It provides services for free.C. It is built above a mountain.D. It will close in 200 years.35. If there is an electrical problem at the Seed Vault, what will happen to the seeds?A. They will be sent away.B. They will still be safe.C. They will be of no use.D. They will be planted at once.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年(人教版)英语单元测试【必修2】Unit 4(I)(含答案)

2020年精编人教版英语资料必修二Unit 4 单元测试Wildlife protectionI.阅读理解AIreland has had a very difficult history. The problems started in the 16th century when English rulers tried to conquer (征服) Ireland. For hundreds of years, the Irish people fought against the English. Finally, in 1921, the British government was forced to give independence to the south of Ireland. The result is that today there are two “Irelands”. Northern Ireland, in the north, i s part of the United Kingdom. The Republic of Ireland, in the south, is an independent country.In the 1840s the main crop, potatoes, was affected by disease and about 750,000 people died of hunger. This, and a shortage (短缺) of work, forced many people to leave Ireland and live in the USA, the UK, Australia and Canada. As a result of these problems, the population fell from 8.2 million in 1841 to 6.6 million in 1851.For many years, the majority of Irish people earned their living as farmers. Today, many people still work on the land but more and more people are moving to the cities to work in factories and offices. Life in the cities is very different from life in the countryside, where things move at a quieter and slower pace.The Irish are famous for being warm-hearted and friendly. Oscar Wilde, a famous Irish writer, once said that the Irish were “the greatest talkers since the Greeks”. Since independence, Ireland has revived (复兴) its own culture of music, language, literature and singing. Different areas have different styles of old Irish songs which are sung without instruments. Other kinds of Irish music use many different instruments such as the violin, whistles, etc..1. What does the author tell us in Paragraph 1?A. How the Irish fought against the English.B. How Ireland gained independence.C. How English rulers tried to conquer Ireland.D. How two “Irelands” came into being.2. We learn from the text that in Ireland ________.A. food shortages in the 1840s led to a decline in populationB. people are moving to the cities for lack of work in the countrysideC. it is harder to make a living as a farmer than as a factory workerD. different kinds of old Irish songs are all sung with instruments3. The last paragraph is mainly about ________.A. the Irish characterB. Irish cultureC. Irish musical instrumentsD. a famous Irish writer4. What can be the best title for the text?A. Life in IrelandB. A Very Difficult HistoryC. Ireland, Past and PresentD. The Independence of IrelandBMrs. Amatuli was my teacher in the fourth grade. One day at lunch time, I was getting ready to eat my same old tuna fish (金枪鱼)sandwich and suddenly Mrs. Amatuli asked me if she could buy my sandwich from me. She explained that I could use the money to buy a hot lunch from the cafeteria.I was thrilled. I never bought my lunch at the cafeteria. It was too expensive for my family, and I always carried my lunch and brought the bag back home to use again the next day. My sandwiches were either bologna (大香肠)or tuna fish. It rarely varied beyond that.You can understand my delight when I had the opportunity to buy a hot lunch.When we finished lunch that day, Mrs. Amatuli took me aside and said she wanted to explain why she had bought my sandwich. I really didn't care why, but it gave me a few minutes of her precious attention so I was very quiet as she explained. You see, she was Catholic and she told methat Catholics didn't eat red meat on Fridays—they ate fish on Fridays.Oh, I couldn't wait to get home and tell my mama that from now on I wanted tuna fish on Fridays. After my mama understood why, she gladly fixed tuna fish for me on Fridays. She even fixed it on brown bread because she know Mrs. Amatuli liked brown bread. From then on, every Friday I could get in line with the rest of the kids for a hot lunch. I didn't care how many of the kids complained about cafeteria food—it tasted divine to me!I realize now that Mrs. Amatuli could have fixed herself a tuna sandwich of Friday. But she bought my sandwich because she saw a little girl who was thrilled over the simple act of having a hot lunch.I will never forget her for her compassion and generosity and what I should do is to follow her example.5.Mrs. Amatuli bought the writer's sandwich because ______.A.she was tired of cafeteria foodB.she hated getting in line with kidsC.she didn't eat red meat on FridayD.she wanted to show care to the writer6.What can we learn about the cafeteria food?A.It was terrific. B.It was terrible.C.The writer enjoyed it. D.Most kids were fond of it.7.The underlined word“divine”in Paragraph 5 means ________.A.perfect B.sweetC.unpleasant D.special8.Which of the following can best show the theme of this text?A.It is hard to please all.B.Better to give than to receive.C.Love makes the world go around.D.The more you offer, the more you are rewarded.CDear Dr. Cory:I have allergies (过敏反应). It feels like something is in my throat. What is it and what should I do to help it?Christa Dear Christa:You might be feeling mucous in your throat. The membranes there make mucus to keep nasal passages (鼻腔) moist and clean and to warm the air that we breathe. But sometimes our bodies make too much mucus, and it can collect at the back of the throat. Drinking lots of liquids, especially warm ones, may help.Dear Dr. Cory:Sometimes when I don't wear any socks with my shoes I get blisters (水疱). What are blisters? How can I avoid them?Jacy Dear Jacy:Blisters occur when something (like the back of your shoe) rubs against your skin and causes tiny blood vessels to leak fluid (液体). The blister acts like a pillow to protect damaged skin while it repairs itself.The best way to prevent blisters is to avoid“rubbing”spots. If the problem is your shoes, wear socks and shoes that fit to help prevent blisters.Dear Dr. Cory:I like reading your column. It tells me a lot about the body and how it works. I have a question for you:I have not been airing my feet out lately and the bottoms of them have been turning crisp (起皱的)and the skin is peeling. Why?Aaron Dear Aaron:People whose feet get wet or sweaty while wearing shoes may develop athlete's foot, caused bya fungus that likes warm, damp skin. The fungus is easily passed from one person to another, so public places such as locker rooms or showers are real hot spots. It's most common during summer in people who rarely remove their shoes, and in people who sweat a lot. It can cause bumps, redness, itching, and peeling of the skin, often between the toes.Anti-fungus cream, now available without a prescription (处方), cures the infection. Your doctor or health care provider can help find the cause of the problem.9.What should Christa do with her trouble?A.Drink plenty of warm water.B.Let it be for it can repair itself.C.Consult a doctor immediately.D.Remove the mucus immediately.10.What can we infer from the passage?A.Jacy doesn't like wearing socks.B.Dr. Cory often writes some books about health.C.Athletes are more likely to have foot problems.D.You can cure infection without the help of doctors.11.The following statements are true about blisters EXCEPT that ________.A.the blisters are helpful to skin's recoveryB.wearing suitable socks and shoes can prevent blistersC.blood vessels will leak fluid if rubbedD.the best way to cure blisters is to avoid rubbing spots12.Doctor Cory thinks the most direct reason of Aaron's trouble is ________.A.sweating B.not airing his feet outC.fungus D.rarely removing his shoes13.The letters are about ________.A.ways to keep fit B.health problemsC.suggestions about diet D.knowledge about medicineDShopping in the United States changes a lot. About ninety years ago most people shopped in small stores that were owned by one person or a family. Women went from the bakery to the butcher's to the grocer and on to the fruit and vegetable seller in order to get their food for the week.Then about sixty years ago, supermarkets were born. In a supermarket, people could get all the different kinds of food they needed without going to different stores.The next big change in shopping in the United States was the shopping mall. A shopping mall is a group of stores under one roof. Because malls allowed people to shop without worrying about the weather, they soon became very popular. The mall became a place for people to socialize in addition to shopping. If you walk through a mall, you will see older people sitting, chatting and drinking coffee. Malls are places for teenagers to hang out. Many teens will often just“go to the mall”and spend time with their friends.The recent change in American shopping was the superstore. Large chain stores such as Wal­Mart, Office Depot and Toys“R”Us have been built all across the United States. Because t hey are so large, they can buy goods at a great discount and sell them much cheaper than smaller stores.Sometimes, when they are built near small towns, many of the small town stores have to close. They just cannot compete with their giant neighbors.And now, online shopping is becoming more and more popular all over the States. People are too busy to go to the physical stores, so they go shopping over the Internet. Online shopping has lots of advantages. For instance, online stores are usually available 24 hours a day. Searching or browsing online shops can be faster than browsing the physical stores. While, online shopping also has its disadvantages. People are at higher risk of being cheated on the part of the merchant than in a physical store. And privacy of personal information may be let out.14.Which of the following shows the right order of shopping development in the United States?①small stores②superstores③shopping malls④shopping online⑤supermarketsA.①②③④⑤B.①⑤②③④C.①⑤③②④D.②③④①⑤15.Which is the place for people to spend time with others according to the passage?A.Shopping malls. B.Small stores.C.Supermarkets. D.Superstores.16.Why can the superstores sell products at much lower prices?A.Because they are built near small towns.B.Because they are across the United States.C.Because they sell all kinds of products people need.D.Because they can buy goods at a reduction in the prices.17.What's the disadvantage of online shopping according to the passage?A.Wasting time.B.Leaking personal information.C.Fixed prices.D.No chance to do physical activities.II.七选五Millions of people all over the world use the word“OK”. In fact, some people say the word“OK”means all right or acceptable; it expresses agreement or approval.___18___ Some people say it came from the Native American Indian tribe known as the Choctaw. The Choctaw word “oken”means the same as the American word“okay”. Experts say early explorers in the American West spoke the Choctaw language in the 19th century.But many people doubt this. Language expert Allen Walker Read wrote about the word“OK”in reports published in the 1960s. He said the word began being used in the 1830s. ___19___ Some foreign­born people wrote“all correct”as“o-l-l k-o-r-r-e-c-t”,and used the letters OK. Other people say a railroad worker named Obadiah Kelly invented the word long ago. They said he put the first letters of his names—O and K—on each object people gave him to send on the train._20___ The organization supported Martin Van Buren for president in 1840. They called their group the OK Club. The letters were taken from the name of the town where Martin Van Buren was born-Old Kinderhook, New York.Then there is the expression A-OK. It is a space-age expression. It was used in 1961 during the flight of astronaut Alan Shepard. He was the first American to be launched into space. His flight ended when his spacecraft landed in the ocean, as planned. Shepard reported,“Everything is A-OK.”__21___ One story says it was first used during the early days of the telephone to tell an operator that a message had been received.There are also funny ways to say okay. __22__ These expressions were first used in the 1930s. Today, a character on the American television series, “The Simpsons”,says it another way.

Fine art treasures from many countries are kept in an art museum called the Louvre in Paris, France. The works of art have been collected by the people ofFrance over many centuries. It is one of the biggest art museums in the world.The Louvre has not always been a museum. The first building was a fort(堡垒). In 1190, it(护城河)to keep out thewas the king’s castle with high walls and a round tower. It had a moatenemies. Over the years, the number of buildings around the castle grew. By 1350, the castle nolonger needed a fort. The Louvre became a palace home for French kings and queens.During the time of peace, new treasures were brought in. During the days of war, many treasures were stolen, and the buildings were damaged.When Francis I became the King of France in 1515, he brought in many artists from otherMona Lisa is the best countries.

Historians and scientists have long believed that ancient Egypt’most famous king was probably murdered. But a recent scientific study claims to have founda different answer to this more than 3,300-year-old mystery. A team of researchers now saythat King Tut, the boy ruler, died of complications (并发症)from a broken leg.Tut’s full name was Tutankhamun. He was just 9 years old when he became the ruler ofEgypt in 1333 BC. His treasure-filled tomb was discovered almost a century ago. It was filledwith royal riches, including a solid-gold coffin, a gold mask, and piles of jewelry.Unfortunately Tut died at the age of 19. Many experts have thought that Tut was killed byone of his advisers, named Ay, who wanted to be king. But thanks to a major modern scienceproject, it seems Ay is innocent.Researchers set out to solve the mystery of King Tut’s death by using the tools of science, including DNA tests and electronic scans of his mummy(木乃伊). Scientist Carsten Pusch carriedout the tests on Tut for the new study. He thinks a broken leg led to the young king’s dea than 100 walking sticks were found in King Tut’s tomb. This supports the team’s findings. Bu how could a person die from a simple broken leg?Pusch also found DNA evidence in Tut’s body that shows he had malaria, a disease carried by mosquitoes. Malaria seriously weakens the immune system(免疫系统).Pusch and his fellow researchers believe the malaria and the bone disease together caused the(骨折)to become deadly. Finally, the young king was just too weak to recover. Soking’s fractureeffects of the disease combined with the bad luck of a broken bone —not a jealous adviserlikely the real, causes of King Tut’s death.4.

The passage mainly tells us about ________.A. a different answer to King Tut’s deathB. a famous boy king in ancient EgyptC. a treasure-filled tomb discovered in EgyptD. a team of researchers studying ancient tombsCIn the 1960s, while studying the volcanic history of Yellowstone National Park, Bob Christiansen became puzzled about something that, oddly, had not troubled anyone before: he couldn’t find the park’s volcano. It had been known for a long time that Yellowstone was volcanic what accounted for all its hot springs and other steamy features. Butin nature —that’sChristiansen couldn’t find the Yellowstone volcano anywhere.Most of us, when we talk about volcanoes, think of the classic cone(圆锥体)shapes of aFuji or Kilimanjaro, which are created when erupting magma(岩浆)piles up. These can form remarkably quickly. In 1943, a Mexican farmer was surprised to see smoke rising from a smallpart of his land. In one week he was the confused owner of a cone five hundred feet high. Withintwo years it had topped out at almost fourteen hundred feet and was more than half a mile across. Altogether there are some ten thousand of these volcanoes on Earth, all but a few hundred of them extinct. There is, however, a second less known type of volcano that doesn’t involve mountain building. These are volcanoes so explosive that they burst open in a single big crack, leavingbehind a vast hole, the caldera. Yellowstone obviously was of this second type, but Christiansencouldn’t find the caldera anywhere.Just at this time NASA decided to test some new high-altitude cameras by taking photographsof Yellowstone. A thoughtful official passed on some of the copies to the park authorities on thecenters. As soon as assumption that they might make a nice blow-up for one of the visitors’ Christiansen saw the photos, he realized why he had failed to spot the caldera: almost the wholepark —2.2 million acres —was caldera. The explosion had left a hole more than forty miles across —much too huge to be seen from anywhere at ground level. At some time in the past Yellowstonemust have blown up with a violence far beyond the scale of anything known to humans.8. What puzzled Christiansen when he was studying Yellowstone?A. Its complicated geographical features.B. Its ever-lasting influence on tourism.C. The mysterious history of the park.D. The exact location of the volcano.9. What does the second paragraph mainly talk about?A. The shapes of volcanoes.B. The impacts of volcanoes.C. The activities of volcanoes.D. The heights of volcanoes.-up” in the last paragraph most probably mean?10. What does the underlined word “blowA. Hot-air balloon.B. Digital camera.C. Big photograph.D.Bird’s view.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。
