高中英语创新方案外研版必修1：Unit 4 Section 1讲义含答案

Module 4课时达标训练(十三)阅读理解AToday, people all over the world are moving out of small villages in the country to go and live in big, noisy cities. They are moving from the peaceful hills, mountains, fields, rivers and streams of the countryside to the busy world of streets, buildings, traffic and crowds. This movement from rural areas to urban_areas has been going on for over two hundred years.In many countries, the main reason why people come to live in towns and cities is work. After one or two large factories have been built in or near a town, people come to find work, and soon an industrial area begins to grow. There is usually a residential area nearby, where the factory workers can live. The families of these workers need schools, hospitals and shops, so more people come to live in the area to provide these services and a city grows.In every major city in the world, there is a business district where the big companies have their main offices. In the United States, this area is usually in the city centre downtown. It is here that you can see the huge skyscraper office blocks. The people who work here often travel a long way to work each day. Many of them live in the suburbs of the city, far away from the industrial area and the city centre. Some suburbs are very pleasant, with nice houses and big gardens. There are usually parks for children to play in and large department stores where you can buy all you need.But what is the future of the big cities? Will they continue to get bigger? Perhaps not. Some major cities have actually become smaller in the last ten years, and it is quite possible that one day we will see people moving out of the major cities and back into smaller towns and villages.1．We can easily know that the underlined phrase “urban areas”in paragraph 1 means “________”．A．areas of the countrysideB．areas of a town or cityC．areas near the countrysideD．areas near a town or city2．Why do people move to live in cities or towns?A．Because they can live more comfortably there.B．Because they prefer noisy life to peaceful life.C．Because they want to find work.D．Because they are sure of having better life there.3．In the United States many people work in the centre of a big city ________．A．while living on the far away edge of the cityB．and live thereC．but live in another cityD．but live far away out of the city4．We can infer that this movement from rural areas to urban areas________．A．has been going on for more than 2，000 yearsB．will continue in the futureC．may not continue in the futureD．is sure to stopBAs we all know, it was Thomas Jefferson who wrote the Declaration of Independence(《独立宣言》). He wrote it in two weeks, and after a few changes, it was accepted by the Congress (国会). As a result, he became famous.Born in 1743 in Virginia, Thomas Jefferson, a wonderful student at school and almost talented (天才的) lawyer later, was much interested in politics.Jefferson was elected the Governor of Virginia in 1779, and he was sent to France as the representative of the American government in 1784. Sixteen years later, at the age of 57, he was elected president after Washington and Adams.Far from a handsome man, he was tall with long arms and big hands. Jefferson, who was an amusing (令人愉快的) talker in conversation but a poor speaker, was generally goodnatured.Jefferson was regarded as a defender of freedom in America. As a president, he protected the right of free speech. Interestingly enough, in his eight years as president, Jefferson never vetoed (否决) a bill which the Congress had passed. He did a lot in organizing the new University of Virginia.Thomas Jefferson died on July the fourth, 1826, the fiftieth anniversary of American Independence.5．From the passage we can infer that America won its independence in ________．A．1786B．1800C．1842 D．17766．How old was Thomas Jefferson when he was elected President of the U．S.A.?A．He was 47. B．He was in his forties.C．He was 57. D．We don't know.7．Which of the following statements is TRUE?A．Jefferson was an amusing talker, but not good at speaking in public.B．Jefferson was not an easy person to get along with.C．Jefferson was not only very talented but also very handsome.D．Not being politically minded, Jefferson never vetoed a bill passed by the Congress.8．Jefferson died when he was ________．A．72 B．83C．73 D．92CWhen other nineyearold kids were playing games, she was working at a petrol station. When other teens were studying or going out, she struggled to find a place to sleep on the street. But she overcame these terrible setbacks to win a highly competitive scholarship and gain entry to Harvard University. And her amazing story has inspired a movie, Homeless to Har v ard: The Liz Murray Story, shown in late April.Liz Murray, a 22yearold American girl, has been writing a reallife story of willpower and determination. Liz grew up in the shadow of two drugaddicted parents. There was never enough food or warm clothes in the house. Liz was the only member of the family who had a job. Her mother had AIDS and died when Liz was just 15 years old. The effect of that became a turning point in her life. Connecting the environment in which she had grown up with how her mother had died, she decided to do something about it.Liz went back to school. She threw herself into her studies, never telling her teachers that she was homeless. At night, she lived on the streets.“What_drove_me_to_live_on_had_something_to_do_with_understanding,_by_understanding_th at_there_was_a_whole_other_way_of_being._I_had_only_experienced_a_small_part_of_the_soci ety，”she wrote in her book Breaking Night.She admitted that she used envy to drive herself on. She used the benefits that come easily to others, such as a safe living environment, to encourage herself that “next to nothing could hold me down”. She finished high school in just two years and won a full scholarship to study at Harvard University. But Liz decided to leave her top university a couple of months earlier this year in order to take care of her father, who has also developed AIDS.“I love my parents so much. They are drug addicts. But I never forget that they love me all the time.”Liz wants moviegoers (who often see films) to come away with the idea that changing your life is “as simple as making a decision”．9．In which order did the following things happen to Liz?a．Her mother died of AIDS.b．She worked at a petrol station.c．She got admitted into Harvard.d．The movie about her life was put on.e．She had trouble finding a place to sleep.A．b，a，e，c，d B．a，b，c，e，dC．e，d，b，a，c D．b，e，a，d，c10．The main idea of the passage is ________．A．how Liz managed to enter Harvard UniversityB．what a hard time Liz had in her childhoodC．why Liz loved her parents so muchD．how Liz struggled to change her life11．What actually made her go towards her goal?A．Envy and competition.B．Willpower and determination.C．Decisions and understanding.D．Love and respect for her parents.12．When she wrote “What drove me to live on ... I had only experienced a small part of the society”in, she meant that ________．A．she had little experience of social lifeB．she could hardly understand the societyC．she would do something for her own lifeD．she needed to travel more around the world课时达标训练(十三)语篇解读：也许有一天，曾经由农村涌向城市的人们会再次转向农村。

ALong March (长征) exhibitionThe Shanghai History Museum is putting on an exhibition to remember the Long March which took place 75 years ago. More than 220 photos and 40 other things are on show. All the exhibition is explained in Chinese. The show will end on November 20.Time: 10：00 a. m．－4：00 p．m.Address: 1286 Hongqiao RoadTicket: 8 yuan for Chinese/15 yuan for foreignersThai elephantsEight elephants from Thailand are an attraction for visitors at Changfeng Park by riding bikes, playing basketball, dancing and blowing a musical instrument. The elephants give three shows a day at 9：30 a．m., 3：30 p．m. and 8：00 p．m, and there is an extra show at 1：30 p．m. at weekends. The show will end on November 15.Address: 189 Daduhe RoadTicket: 30－40 yuanDancing dolphinsDolphins jumping from the water to touch a ball, dancing to music, kissing people and doing easy math problems, and seals and sea lions, also performing, have made a large part of the aquarium in Peace Park, which interests children greatly.Time: 10：30 a．m., 4：00 p．m., and 7：30 p．m.Ticket: 20 yuan for adults and 10 yuan for children1．Where can one see the Long March exhibition?A．In Shanghai History Museum.B．In Changfeng Park.C．In Peace Park.D．On 189 Dahude Road.2．How many shows do Thailand elephants give at weekends?A．One.B．Two.C．Three D．Four.3．Which of the following is TRUE?A．The Long March exhibition is explained in English.B．The sea animals can work out difficult math problems.C．Thai elephants' shows can only be seen in the day.D．The sea animals perform three times a day.BToo many people want others to be their friends, but they don't give friendship back. That is why some friendships don't last very long. To have a friend, you must learn to treat your friend the way you want your friend to treat you. Learning to be a good friend means learning three rules: be honest; be generous (宽宏大量的); be understanding.Honesty is where a good friendship starts. Friends must be able to trust one another. If you do not tell the truth, people usually find out. If a friend finds out that you haven't been honest, you may lose your friend's trust. Good friends always rely on one another to speak and act honestly.Generosity means sharing and sharing makes a friendship grow. You do not have to give your lunch money or your clothes. Naturally you will want to share your ideas and feelings. These can be very valuable to a friend. They tell your friend what is important to you. By sharing them, you help your friend know better.Sooner or later everyone needs understanding and help with a problem. Something may go wrong at school. Talking about the problem can make it easier to solve. Turning to a friend can be a first step in solving the problem. So to be a friend you must listen and understand. You must try to put yourself in your friend's place so that you can understand the problem better.No two friendships are exactly alike (相同的). But all true friendships have three things in common. If you plan to keep your friends, you must practice honesty, generosity and understanding.4．Some friendships don't last long because ________．A．there are too many people who want to make friendsB．those who give others friendship receive friendship from othersC．some people receive friendship but don't give friendship backD．they don't know friendship is something serious5．According to the passage, honesty is ________．A．something countableB．the base of friendshipC．as important as moneyD．more important than anything else6．In the third paragraph, the underlined word “they”refers to (指) ________．A．generosity and friendshipB．generosity and sharingC．your ideas and feelingsD．your clothes7．The best title of this passage is ________．A．How to Be a FriendB．Honesty Is the Best PolicyC．A Friend in Need Is a Friend IndeedD．Three Important Points in LifeCIn 1999, twelve percent of public elementary schools in the United States required students to wear uniforms. Just three years later, the amount was almost double that.A study of six big-city Ohio public schools showed students who were required to wear uniforms had improved graduation, behavior and attendance rates. Academic performance was unchanged.Some high schools in Texas have also joined in the movement. Yet studies find mixed results from requiring uniforms. And some schools have turned away from such policies.Supporters believe dressing the same creates a better learning environment and safer schools. The school district in Long Beach, California, was the first in the country to require uniforms in all elementary and middle schools. The example helped build national interest in uniforms as a way to deal with school violence and improve learning.Findings in Long Beach suggested that the policy resulted in fewer behavior problems and better attendance. But researcher Viktoria, who has looked at those findings, says they were based only on opinions about the effects of uniforms.She says other steps taken at the same time to improve schools in Long Beach and statewide could have influenced the findings. The district (the area marked by government) increased punishments for misbehavior. And California passed a law to reduce class sizes.In Florida, for example, researcher Sharon found that uniforms seemed to improve behavior and reduce violence. In Texas, Eloise found fewer discipline problems among students required to wear uniforms, but no effect on attendance.Sociologist David has studied school uniform policies since 1988. He collected the reports in the book. In his own study, he found that reading and mathematics performance dropped after a school in Pennsylvania (宾夕法尼亚州) required uniforms.Political and community pressures may persuade schools to go to uniforms to improve learning. But David and others believe there is not enough evidence of a direct relationship. In fact, he says requiring uniforms may even increase discipline problems.8．Which of the following researchers are NOT supporters of school uniform policies?A．Viktoria and Sharon.B．Sharon and David.C．Eloise and Sharon.D．Viktoria and David.9．The underlined word “misbehavior”in the sixth paragraph probably means “________”．A．serious crimeB．bad performanceC．absence for classD．action against wearing uniforms10．What can we infer from the passage?A．More work is needed to get better information about uniform's effect.B．The number of schools requiring uniforms in the U．S. will become less sharply.C．Wearing uniforms has little to do with behavior and learning.D．Politicians and communities won't vote for uniform policies.11．What's the main idea of this passage?A．More and more students are required to wear uniforms in the U．S.B．Wearing uniforms contributes to good academic performance.C．Researchers in the U．S. argue for school uniform policies.D．Evidence for school uniform polices in the U．S. is seen as weak.DUntil late in the 20th century most Americans spent time with people of different generations. Now middle-aged Americans may not keep in touch with old people until they are old themselves.That's because we group people by age. We put our threeyearolds together in daycare centers, our 13-year-olds in schools and sport activities, and our 80－year－olds in senior citizen homes. Why?We live far away from the old for many reasons. Young people sometimes avoid the old to get rid of fears of becoming old and dying. It is much harder to watch someone we love disappear before our eyes. Sometimes it's got hard that we stay away from the people who need us the most.Fortunately, some of us have found our way to the old. And we have discovered that they often save the young.A reporter moved her family into a block filled with old people. At first her children were disappointed. But the reporter made banana bread for the neighbors and had her children send it and visit them. Soon the children had many new friends, with whom they shared food, stories and projects. “My children have never been lonely，”the reporter said.The young, in turn, save the old. Once I was in a rest home (an organization where old people are cared for) when a visitor showed up with a baby, she was immediately surrounded. People who hadn't gotten out of bed in a week suddenly were ringing for a wheelchair. Even those who had seemed asleep woke up to watch the child. Babies have an astonishing power to comfort and cure.Grandparents are a special case. They give their grandchildren a feeling of security and continuity. As my husband put it “My grandparents gave me a deep sense that things would turn out right in the end.” Grandchildren speak of attention th ey don't get from worried parents. “My parents were always telling me to hurry up, and my grandparents told me to slow down，”one friend said. A teacher told me she can tell which pupils have relationships with grandparents: they are quieter, calmer and more trusting.12．Now in an American family, people can find that ________．A．children never live with their parentsB．not all working people live with their parentsC．old people are supported by their grandchildrenD．grandchildren are supported by their grandparents13．Seeing a baby, the old people got excited because ________.A．they had never seen a baby beforeB．the baby was clever and beautifulC．the baby brought them the image of lifeD．the baby's mother would take care of them14．Why are some children quieter, calmer and more trusting?A．Because they have relationships with their grandparents.B．Because their worried parents ask them to act like that.C．Because they have nothing to worry about.D．Because their teachers ask them to act like that.15．Which of the following can show the fact that the old often save the young?A．The old can become friends of the children and the children may not feel lonely.B．The old get excited when they see a baby.C．The old can cure the young when they are sick.D．Babies have an astonishing power to comfort and cure.Ⅱ.任务型阅读(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。

高中英语创新方案外研版必修1：Unit 4 Section 4讲义含答案

Module 4课时达标训练(十六)Ⅰ.阅读理解More than two thirds of the world's polar bears will be wiped out by 2050, according to a shocking new study. By then, scientists say，global warming will have melted 42 percent of the Arctic sea ice. By 2100, only a very few of these important creatures will be left.The report has been produced by the US Geological Survey. The scientists have publicized their findings in the hope of influencing US Interior Secretary Dirk Kempthorne, who has been asked to put polar bears on the US endangered species list.Polar bears depend on floating sea ice as a platform for hunting seals, which are their main food. Without enough ice, polar bears would be forced to go onto the land, where they are poorly skilled hunters, and would be unlikely to adapt to the life on the land in time. Experts say few little bears would survive and the stress could make many females unable to get pregnant.The team of American and Canadian scientists spent six months studying bears，on the ground，from spotter planes and in the lab, using computer models.Some team members fear the result is even worse for the bears than what their report says. They say the Arctic is warming faster than anywhere in the world and much faster than their computer had been forecasting. Satellite observations have shown that the ice has decreased to an all-time low.However, not everyone in the scientific community believes that global warming is happening on such an alarming scale. Another investigation has found that polar bears are still being hunted by wealthy “sportsmen” who want their skins and heads. At least ten international companies offer bear-hunting trips.1．What do we know about Dirk Kempthorne according to the passage?A．He is an animal scientist.B．He is a protector of animals working for the US government.C．He was asked to put polar bears on the US endangered species list.D．He offered to put polar bears on the endangered species list.2．Why will polar bears die out if there is not enough sea ice?A．Because polar bears can't catch enough food without ice.B．Because polar bears eat ice when they feel thirsty.C．Because polar bears will be easily found by hunters without ice.D．Because most female bears are used to giving birth under ice.3．After a sixmonth study, some scientists fear that ________．A．there is something wrong with their computersB．polar bears will disappear even faster than they ever expectedC．their computer models are not as accurate as they expectedD．global warming will destroy everything in the Arctic4．What does the writer want to tell us in the last paragraph?A．The forecast about the future of polar bears is not correct.B．Global warming won't have any effect on hunting trips in the Arctic.C．Polar bears are an endangered species as a result of bearhunting.D．People don't pay enough attention to the protection of endangered species.Ⅱ.任务型阅读Americans use many expressions with the word “dog”. People in the United States love their dogs and treat them well. 1.________However, dogs without owners to care for them lead a different kind of life. The expression, to lead a dog's life, describes a person who has an unhappy existence.Some people say we live in a dogeatdog world. 2.________They say that to be successful, a person has to work like a dog. This means they have to work very, very hard. Such hard work can make people dog tired. And, the situation would be even worse if they became sick as a dog.3．________This means that every person enjoys a successful period during his or her life. To be successful, people often have to learn new skills. Yet, some people say that you can never teach an old dog new tricks. They believe that older people do not like to learn new things and will not change the way they do things.4．________People who are unkind or uncaring can be described as meaner than a junkyard dog. Junkyard dogs live in places where people throw away things they do not want. Mean dogs are often used to guard this property. They bark or attack people who try to enter the property. However, sometimes a person who appears to be mean and threatening is really not so bad. We say his bark is worse than his bite.Dog expressions are also used to describe the weather. The dog days of summer are the hottest days of the year. A rainstorm may cool the weather. But we do not want it to rain too hard.5.________A．We do not want it to rain cats and dogs.B．Still, people say every dog has its day.C．That means many people are competing for the same things, like good jobs.D．Dogs are their best friends and they are loyal to people.E．There are many other expressions waiting for you to explore.F．Some people are compared to dogs in bad ways.G．They take their dogs for walks, let them play outside and give them good food and medical care.Ⅲ.完形填空Recently, I flew to Las Vegas to attend a meeting.
