His family moved to Cleveland when he was 9.There, a school teacher asked the youth his name.“J.C., ” he replied.She thought he had said “Jesse”, and he had a new name.Owens ran his first race at the age of 13.After high school, he went to Ohio State University. He had to work part time so as to pay for his education. As a second-year student, in the Big Ten games in 1935, he set even more records than he would in the Olympic Games a year later.A week before the Big Ten meet, Owens accidentally fell down a flight of stairs. His back hurt so much that he could not exercise all week, and he had to be helped in and out of the car that drove him to the meet. He refused to listen to the suggestions that he give up and said he would try, event by event. He did try, and the results are in the record book.The stage was set for Owens’ victory at the Olympic Games in Berlin the next year, and his success would come to be regarded as not only athletic but also political. Hitler did not congratulate any of the African-American winners.“It was all right with me, ” he said years later.“I didn’t go to Berlin to shake hands with him, anyway.”Having returned from Berlin, he received no telephone calls from the president of his own country, either. In fact, he was not honored by the United States until 1976, four years before his death.Owens’ Olympic victories made little difference to him. He earned his living by looking after a school playground, and accepted money to race against cars, trucks, motorcycles and dogs.“Sure, it bothered me, ” he said later.“But at least it was an honest living. I had to eat.”In time, however, his gold medals changed his life.“They have kept me alive over the years, ”he once said.“Time has stood still for me. That golden moment dies hard.”36.Owens got his other name “Jesse” when______.A. he went to Ohio State UniversityB. his teacher made fun of himC. his teacher took “J.C.” for “Jesse”D. he won gold medals in the Big Ten meet37.In the Big Ten meet, Owens______.A. hurt himself in the backB. succeeded in setting many recordsC. tried every sports event but failedD. had to give up some events38.We can infer from the text that Owens was treated unfairly in the US at that time because______.A.he was not of the right raceB. he was the son of a poor farmerC. he didn’t shake hands with HitlerD. he didn’t talk to the US president on the phone39.When Owens says “They have kept me alive over the years”, he means that the medals______.A. have been changed for money to help him live onB. have made him famous in the USC. have encouraged him to overcome difficulties in lifeD. have kept him busy with all kinds of jobs40.What would be the best title for the text?A. Jesse Owens, A Great American AthleteB. Golden Moment—A Life-time StruggleC. Making A Living As A SportsmanD. How To Be A Successful AthleteBIt is natural for young people to blame their parents for most of the misunderstandings between them. They have always complained(抱怨), more or less justly, that their parents are out of touch with modern ways; that they always want to control them; that they do not trust them to deal with problems; and that they have no sense ofhumor, at least in parent-child relationships.Young people often irritate their parents with their choices in clothes, hairstyles, and music. Actually this is not what they really intend to do. They feel cut off from the adult world into which they have not yet been accepted. So they create a culture and society of their own. Then, if it turns out that their music or clothes or hairstyles make their parent angry, this gives them additional enjoyment. They feel they are better, at least in a small way, and that they are leaders in style and taste.Sometimes you do not obey orders, and are proud because you do not want your parents to say yes to what you do. If they do, it looks as if you are unfaithful to your own age group. But in that case, you will probably think that you are the underdog:you can’t win but at least you can keep your honor. This is a passive way of looking at things. It is natural enough after long years of childhood, when you were completely under your parent’s control. If you plan to control your life, co-operation can be part of that plan. You can persuade others, especially your parents, into doing things the way you want. Get them to feel your sense of responsibility(责任) and initiative(进取心) so that they will allow you to do what you want to do.41.The first paragraph is mainly about ______.A. children’s complaints about their parentsB. misunderstandings between children and their parentsC. the control of the parents over their childrenD. children’s ability to deal with problems42. The underlined word “irritate” in this passage is closest in meaning to “______”.A. to make someone excitedB. to make someone angryC. to please someoneD. to comfort someone43. Children choose to have certain strange clothes and hairstyles because they ______.A. want to show their existence by creating a culture of their ownB. have a strong desire to be leaders in style and tasteC. have no other way to enjoy themselves betterD. want to make their parents angry44. Children do not want their parents to say yes to whatever they do because they ______.A. have already been accepted into the adult worldB. feel that they are better in a small way than the adultsC. are not likely to win over the adultsD. have a desire to be independentCCentral ParkOutside among the trees, watch the wildlife—both the human and animal varieties.

What is the purpose of these texts?A. To provide information of living in New York.B. To provide directions of city traffic in New York.C. To give visitors a guide to New York.D. To give a brief introduction to the history of New York.DIn my opinion between persons of equal income, there is no social difference except that of achievements and value. Money is nothing, character, behavior and ability are everything. There would be great people and ordinary people and little people, but the great would always be those who had done great things, and never the fools whose mothers had cared for them too much and whose fathers had left them a hundred thousand dollars a year; and the little would be persons of small minds and mean characters, and not poor persons who had never had a chance. That is why fools are always in favor of inequality of income (their only chance of being well-known), and the really great in favor of equality.As for Americans, being hardworking, thrift (care in the use of money or goods), and ambition are positive (practical and constructive) values. They encourage their children to be competitive, to get ahead, to make money, to get possession. In games and in business alike, the aim is to win the game, the award, the contract (business agreement). They go in for labor-saving devices, new inventions, speed and shortcuts. They think every young people should set up a home of their own, and they pity the couple who must share their home with a parent, let alone with other relatives. Actually, of course, not all Americans hold all these values, and those who do may hold other, and at times contradictory(矛盾的), values that affect their ways of behaving. In the main, however, the collective expectation of their society is that these are desirable goals, and each person, whatever his personal opinion may be, is under considerable and similar pressure.48. It seems that the author looks down upon_________.A. the poorB. the greatC. the littleD. the ordinary people49. The author thinks thatA. poor people may succeed in society, given a chanceB. poor people never have a chance to succeed in societyC. the great always do great thingsD. if one’s parents leave one a lot of money, the person will become a fool50.The underlined sentence“character, behavior and ability are everything”means_______.A. money is nothingB. there is no difference between people of equal incomeC. the difference of achievement and value is the most importantD. every person has a chance to succeed, which depends on one’s character, behavior and ability51. To most Americans, it is a pity that_________.A. young couple live with their parents or relativesB. They leave their relatives aloneC. young couples lose their homesD. they do hard workEScientists have tried to come up with biological explanations for the difference between boys and girls.However,none were believable enough to explain the general picture.As one scientist points out,“There are slight genetic（遗传的）differences between the sexes at birth which may affect the subjects boys and girls choose.But the difficulty is that by the time children reach school age,there are so many other effects that it is almost impossible to tell whether girls are worse at science and maths,or whether they’ve been brought up to think of these subjects as boys territory.”Statistics（统计数据）show that in mathematics,at least,girls are equal to boys.A recent report suggests that girls only stop studying mathematics because of social attitudes.One of the reports’ authors says,“While it is socially unacceptable for people not to be able to read and write,it is still acceptable for women to say that they are ‘hopeless’ at maths.Our research shows that,although girls get marks which are as good as the boys,they have not been encouraged to do so.”The explanation for the difference,which is very clear during the teenage years,goes as far back as early childhood experiences.From their first days in nursery school,girls are not encouraged to work on their own or to complete tasks,although boys are.For example,boys not girls,are often asked to ‘help’ with repair work.This encouragement leads to a way of learning how to solve problems later on in life.Evidence（证据）shows that exceptional（例外的）mathematicians and scientists did not have teachers who supplied answers;they had to find out for themselves.A further report on maths teaching shows that teachers seem to give more attention to boys than to girls.Most teachers who took part in the study admitted that they expect their male students to do better at mathematics and science subjects than their female students.All of this tends to encourage boys to work harder in these subjects,gives them confidence（信心）and makes them believe that they can succeed.Interestingly,both boys and girls tend to regard such ‘male’ subjects like mathematics and science as difficult.Yet it has been suggested that girls avoid mathematics courses,not because they are difficult,but for social reasons.Mathematics and science are mainly male subjects,and therefore,as girls become teenagers,they are less likely to take them up.Girls do not seem to want to be in open competition with boys.Neither do they want to do better than boys because they are afraid to appear less females and so,less attractive.52.The underlined word “territory” in the second paragraph most probably means “______”.A.interestB.area of landC.special fieldD.district53.Those who made extraordinary contribution in mathematics and science ______.A. usually had good teachers to help themB. had the abilities to solve problems by themselvesC. usually worked harder than othersD. were encouraged to repair things when young54.Which of the following is not true according to the text?A. It seems socially acceptable for a girl not to be able to read and write.B. It is a social problem rather than a problem of brains that girls are poor at maths.C. Mathematics and science are not easy subjects to either girls or boys.D. There is no connection between a girl’s ability in maths and her appearance.55.What would be the best title for the text?A. Who’s afraid of Maths Anyway?B. Are Boys Cleverer than Girls?C. Boys Are Better at Maths than Girls by BirthD. Maths—A Difficult Subject第三部分：书面表达（共二节，满分45分）第一节：单词拼写（10分）56.If we have a ______（积极的）attitude to our life, we’ll be happier.57.The earthquake put the town into a total ______（毁坏）.58.But in the west, dragons had a different ______（声誉）.59.The cliff is so ______（陡峭）that few people can climb up.60.

If you have the wish and really made a conscious（自觉的）effort, then you can quite easily improve your ability to remember things. But even if you are successful, there are times when your memory seems to play tricks on you.Sometimes you remember things that really did not happen. One morning last week, for example, I gotup and found that I had left the front door unlocked all night, yet I clearly remember locking it carefully the night before.Memory “trick” work the other way as well. Once in a while you remember not doing something, and then find out that you did. One day last month, for example, I was sitting in a barber（理发师）shop waiting for my turn to get a haircut, and suddenly I realized that I had got a haircut two days before at the barber shop across the street from my office.We always seem to find something funny and amusing（有趣的）in incidents caused by people’s forgetfulness orabsent-mindedness.

Get Rid of Absent-mindednessBEverybody has one of those days when everything goes wrong. This is what happened to Harry.He got up one morning very late because he had forgotten to wind up his alarm clock（闹钟）. He tried to shave（刮脸）quickly and cut himself. When he got dressed he got blood all over his clean shirt, so he had to find another one. The only other shirt that was clean needed ironing（熨）, so he ironed it. While he was ironing it, there was a knock at the door. It was the man to read the electricity meter（表）. He showed him where the meter was, said good-bye and found that the iron had burnt a hole in his shirt. So he had to wear the one with the blood on it after all.

The damage and death toll (伤亡) could have been much worse.More than 60 people died in this earthquake. By comparison, an earthquake of similar intensity that shook America in 1988 claimed 25,000 victims.Injures and deaths were relatively less in Los Angles because the quake occurred at 4:31 a.m. on a holiday, when traffic was light on the city’s highways. In addition, changes made to the construction codes in Los Angeles during the last 20 years hav e strengthened the city’s buildings and highway s, making them more resistant (有抵抗力的) to quakes.Despite the good news, civil engineers aren’t resting on their successes. Pinned to their drawing boards are blueprints (蓝图的) for improved quake-resistant buildings. The new designs should offer even greater security to cities where earthquakes often take place.In the past, making structures quake-resistant meant firm yet flexible (柔韧的) materials, such as steel and wood, which bend without breaking. Later, people tried to lift a building off its foundation, and insert rubber and steel between the building and its foundation to reduce the impact (影响) of ground vibrations (颤动). The most recent designs give buildings brains as well as concrete and steel supports, called smart buildings, the structures respond li ke living organisms to an earthquake’s vibrations. When the ground shakes and the buildings tip forward, the computer would force the building to shift in the opposite direction. The new smart structures could be very expensive to build. However, they would save many lives and would be less likely to be damaged during earthquakes.11. One reason why the loss of lives in the Los Angeles earthquake was comparatively low is that ____ .A. new computers had been installed in the buildingsB. occurred in the residential areas (居民区) rather than on the highwaysC. large numbers of Los Angeles residents hadrushed into Los Angeles for holidayD. improvements had been made in the construction of buildings and highways12. The function of the computer mentioned in the passage is to ____ .A. counterbalance an earthquake’s action on the buildingB. predict the coming of an earthquake with accuracyC. help strengthen the foundation of the buildingD. measure the impact of an earthquake’s vibrations13. The smart buildings discussed in the passage ____ .A. would cause serious financial problemsB. would be worthwhile though costlyC. would increase the complexity of architectural designD. can reduce the ground vibrations caused by earthquakes14. It can be inferred from the passage that in minimizing (最小化) the damage caused by earthquakes attention should be focused on ____ .A. the increasing use of rubber and steel in capital constructionB. the development of flexible building materialsC. the reduction of the impact of ground vibrationsD. early forecasts of earthquakes15. The author’s main purpose in writing the passage is to ____ .A. compare the results of the earthquakes that occurred in the USB. encourage civil engineers to make more extensive use of computersC. outline the history of the development of quake-resistant building materialsD. report new developments in constructing quake-resistant building参考答案与解析（module 6）第一部分语法和词汇知识（每题1分，共15分）1.

However, merchants passed silk, gold, fruit, and glass along the Silk Road in more than one direction. They earned their living by traveling the famous Silk Road.The Silk Road was not a simple trading network. It passed through thousands of cities and towns. It started from eastern China, across Central Asia and the Middle East, and ended in the Mediterranean Sea. It was used from about 200 B. C. to about A. D. 1300, when sea travel offered new routes (路线), It was sometimes called the world’s longest highway. However, the Silk Road was made up of many routes, not one smooth path. They passed through what are now 18 countries. The routes crossed mountains and deserts and had many dangers of hot sun, deep snow and even battles. Only experienced traders could return safe.The Silk Road got its name from its most prized product. Silk could be used like money to pay taxes or buy goods. But the traders carried more than just silk. Gold, silver, and glass from Europe were much found in the Middle East and Asia. Horses traded from other areas changed farming practices in China. Indian merchants traded salt and other valuable goods. Chinese merchants traded paper, which produced an immediate effect on the West. Apples traveled from central Asia to Rome. The Chinese had learned to graft (嫁接) different trees together to make new kinds of fruit. They passed this science on to others, including the Romans. The Romans used grafting to grow the apple. Trading along the Silk Road led to world-wide business 2,000 years before the World Wide Web. The people along the Silk Road did not share just goods. They also shared their beliefs. The Silk Road provided pathways for learning, diplomacy (外交), and religion (宗教).53.

2019外研版高中英语选择性必修四Unit6 Understanding ideas能力提升练

Unit6 Starting out and Understanding ideas能力提升练I. 阅读理解(2020山东潍坊一中高二检测)We humans are a curious species. as NASA says on its website, Humans are driven to explore the unknown, discover new worlds, push the boundaries of our scientific and technical limits, and then push further.And space exploration is where we’ve been “pushing” our furthest curiosity.2019 began with two pieces of exciting space exploration news. On Jan. 3. China landed a spacecraft, Chang’e 4, on the moons far side-the side we can’t see from earth--for the first time in human history. and according to a report published on Jan. 9 in Nature. scientists from the Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment (CHIME) detected repeated radio signals from a galaxy 1. 5 billion light years away, possibly sent by intelligent aliens.However, what’s even more exciting than the news is the fact that whenever speaking of space exploration, we forget our political and cultural differences-the things that so obsess us.“When you go into space, you become part of this overall collective called ‘humanity’,” Ken Liu a Chinese-American sci-fi writer and translator told a website. “You’re no longer Chinese. American Russian… Your culture is left behind. You’re now just ‘humanity’ with a capital ‘H’. ”This magic has worked all the way along our journey into space. When the Us astronaut Neil Armstrong (1930--2012) became the first human to set foot on the moon in 1969, for example, he told the world: That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind. Now, with Chang’e 4 touching down on new moon territory China’s aim is to help scientists from around the world find out more about Earth’s only satellite. And with the discovery of the CHIME astronomers, were one step closer to answering a common qu estion in science: “Are humans alone in the universe?” It’s true that we are a curious species. But instead of being curious about the “unknown”, perhaps we’re really more eager to “push further” our own human"“boundaries” and “limits”.1. Which of the following is the discovery of the CHIME Scientists?A. A galaxy with intelligent aliens.B. Repeated radio signals sent by intelligent aliens.C. Repeated radio signals from a distant galaxy.D. Radio signals from a galaxy several light years ago.2. Why does the author quote Ken Liu’s words?A. To introduce the famous writer Ken Liu.B. To show that in space we are just humanity.C. To emphasize that culture is not important.D. To introduce the things that obsess us very much.3. What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 6?A. Further confirm his opinion.B. Add some background information.C. Summarize the previous paragraphs.D. Introduce a new topic for discussion.4. What’s the main idea of the text?A. China takes the lead in space exploration.B. Humans are not alone in the universe.C. Space exploration is a common cause of mankind.D. Humans desire to push the boundaries of scientific limits.B（2020山东日照实验高中高二检测）Artemis is NASA’s new lunar exploration program. Through the Artemis program，NASA will use new technology to study the moon in new and better ways，and prepare for human missions to Mars.NASAS new rocket will carry the Orion spacecraft to the lunar orbit. Then，astronauts will dock（对接）Orion at a small spaceship called the Gateway，from which the crew will take trips to the lunar surface in a new human landing system and then return to the Gateway. The crew will return to Earth aboard Orion.NASA Will test the rocket and the spacecraft in flight，and then send a crew for a test flight.Artemis 1 will be a test flight of the SLS rocket with the Orion spacecraft with no crew.Artemis 2 will fly SLS and Orion with a crew past the Moon，then circle it and return to Earth. This trip will be the farthest of the trips where any human has gone into space.Artemis 3 will send a crew with the first woman and the next man to land on the moon by2024.The Artemis 3 crew will visit the Moon’s South Pole. No one has ever been there. On the moon astronauts will:Search for the moons water and use it.Learn how to live and work on the surface of another celestial body（天体）where astronauts are just three days from home.Test the technologies we need before sending astronauts on missions to mars which can take up to three years round trip.The Moon is a good place to learn new science Nasa will learn more about the moon. Earth and even the sun The moon is a “test bed” for Mars. The Moon is a place to show that astronauts will one day be able to work away from Earth on Mars for long periods of time.5. What is the aim of the Artemis program?A. To help astronauts return to Earth.B. To be ready for the landing on Mars.C. To study Mars using new science.D. To test the Moon landing spacecraft, Orion.6. Which will be the achievement of the Artemis series.A Going to the moon’s South pole.B. Making the first trip into space.C. Sending the first man to the moon.D. Flying to the Moon with four persons.7. What will Artemis astronauts do on the moon?A. Send astronauts to mars.B. Run a three-year-long test.C. Find and make use of water.D. Learn to live not far from home.8. What can we conclude from the text?A. It is possible to live on another planet now.B. The crew will reach the lunar surface from Orion.C. NASA has sent the first woman astronaut to the Moon.D. The Artemis program is of great help in Mars exploring.II. 七选五(2020浙江诸暨中学高二检测)When thinking about placing a human being in space. one of the most important questions is how to design special clothing needed to protect the person from the dangers of the space environment. 1 The fierce heat of the sun can cause severe burns. The lack of the atmosphere can cause gases in the body to expand and even burst. With no oxygen to breathe，a human being will die in only a few moments.2 So is damage from small pieces of rocks and objects like meteoroids（流星体）. In1933，an American flyer，Wiley Post，designed one of the first successful devices to protect a pilot at extreme heights.3 Astronauts in the American space agency flew the first American space flights in the early 1960s. The clothing was similar to that invented by Wiley Post.4 It lets them move do useful tasks and stay outside their spacecraft in comfort and safety for several hours. The spacesuit is called the shuttle extravehicular mobility unit or EMU. It was designed to endure longer and to permit more movement than earlier spacesuits. The EMU has a number of parts that an astronaut can link together by using only one hand which makes it possible for each astronaut to select the parts that fit correctly. Nowadays, NASA scientists are also considering the kind of spacesuit that would be needed for exploration on the planet Mars.5 The equipment may also have to protect astronauts from particles carried in the windon mars And, they must be easy to repair and keep clean during a longer fli ght to and from the red planet.A. Radiation from the sun is another risk in space.B. The cold of space will freeze skin in a short time.C. Today, astronauts wear very different protective clothing.D. Special spacesuits have been used for exploration of Mars.E. EMU has many parts that can be linked together by using two hands.F. It was a large device that looked like a can surrounded the pilots head.G. Because of the gravity on Mars, spacesuits may have to be designed to be lighter than suits used in orbit or on the moon.1. _______2. _______3. _______4. _______5. _______参考答案：I. A【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。

If you have the wish and really made a conscious（自觉的）effort, then you can quite easily improve your ability to remember things. But even if you are successful, there are times when your memory seems to play tricks on you. Sometimes you remember things that really did not happen.

He got up one morning very late because he had forgotten to wind up his alarm clock（闹钟）. He tried to shave（刮脸）quickly and cut himself. When he got dressed he got blood all over his clean shirt, so he had to find another one. The only other shirt that was clean needed ironing（熨）, so he ironed it. While he was ironing it, there was a knock at the door. It was the man to read theelectricity meter（表）. He showed him where the meter was, said good-bye and found that the iron had burnt a hole in his shirt. So he had to wear the one with the blood on it after all. By this time it was very late, so he decided he couldn’t go to work by bus. He telephoned for a taxi to take him to work. The taxi arrived and Harry got in and began to read the newspaper.In another part of the town, a man had killed a woman with a knife and was seen to run away in a taxi. When Harry’s taxi stopped outside his office, a policeman happened to be standing there. He saw the blood on Harry’s shirt, and took him to the police station. He was kept till 3 o’clock in the afternoon before the police were sure that he was not the man they wanted. When he finally arrived at the office at about four, his boss took a look at him and told him to go away and find another job.6. Harry had .A. a lucky dayB. an unlucky dayC. a busy dayD. a good day7.

The damage and death toll (伤亡) could have been much worse.More than 60 people died in this earthquake. By comparison, an earthquake of similar intensity that shook America in 1988 claimed 25,000 victims.Injures and deaths were relatively less in Los Angles because the quake occurred at 4:31 a.m. on a holiday, when traffic was light on the city’s highways. In addition, changes made to t he construction codes in Los Angeles during the last 20 years have strengthened the city’s buildings and highways, making them more resistant (有抵抗力的) to quakes.Despite the good news, civil engineers aren’t resting on their successes. Pinned to their drawing boards are blueprints (蓝图的) for improved quake-resistant buildings. The new designs should offer even greater security to cities where earthquakes often take place.In the past, making structures quake-resistant meant firm yet flexible (柔韧的) materials, such as steel and wood, which bend without breaking. Later, people tried to lift a building off its foundation, and insert rubber and steel between the building and its foundation to reduce the impact (影响) of ground vibrations (颤动). The most recent designs give buildings brains as well as concrete and steel supports, called smart buildings, the structures respond like living organisms to an earthquake’s vibrations. When the ground shakes and the buildings tip forward, the computer would force the building to shift in the opposite direction.The new smart structures could be very expensive to build. However, they would save many lives and would be less likely to be damaged during earthquakes.11. One reason why the loss of lives in the Los Angeles earthquake was comparatively low is that ____ .A. new computers had been installed in the buildingsB. occurred in the residential areas (居民区) rather than on the highwaysC. large numbers of Los Angeles residents had rushed into Los Angeles for holidayD. improvements had been made in the construction of buildings and highways12. The function of the computer mentioned in the passage is to ____ .A. counterbalance an earthquake’s action on the buildingB. predict the coming of an earthquake with accuracyC. help strengthen the foundation of the buildingD. measure the impact of an earthquake’s vibrations13. The smart buildings discussed in the passage ____ .A. would cause serious financial problemsB. would be worthwhile though costlyC. would increase the complexity of architectural designD. can reduce the ground vibrations caused by earthquakes14. It can be inferred from the passage that in minimizing (最小化) the damage caused by earthquakes attention should be focused on ____ .A. the increasing use of rubber and steel in capital constructionB. the development of flexible building materialsC. the reduction of the impact of ground vibrationsD. early forecasts of earthquakes15. The author’s main purpose in writing the passage is to ____ .A. compare the results of the earthquakes that occurred in the USB. encourage civil engineers to make more extensive use of computersC. outline the history of the development of quake-resistant building materialsD. report new developments in constructing quake-resistant building第三部分写作训练（共35分）第一节根据首字母或汉语提示完成单词（每题2分，共10分）1.
