B．3 months.C．4 months. D．7 months.3．What is the main difference between the hotel designed by Alexander Remizov and other hotels?A．It can be built on water.B．It is energy-efficient.C．It is eco-friendly.D．It has enough living space.4．What characteristics will the new hotel have?A．A climate with no rain will form around the hotel.B．The material can protect the hotel from bad weather.C．A power station will be built in the hotel.D．Bricks will be used as the materials instead of glass.B(2013·江苏泰州模拟)Have you ever wondered why each of us has different handwriting? Handwriting, also known as brain writing, is as individual to the person as fingerprints.Occupations, relationships, personal problems as well as health-related issues can be identified in a person's writing. Analyzing handwriting goes back to the 1600s and originated in Europe. Is handwriting analysis scientific?OK, you ask, so what traits can be found while analyzinghandwriting? Many traits can be shown provided the writing is in cursive(草书的), because printing has some limitations. Cursive provides theanalyst with the upstrokes (向上的一笔) in writing which are very important. Many personality traits including being outgoing, temper, anger towards the opposite sex, generosity and hundreds more can be found when analyzing handwriting.Handwriting is very interesting because not only can you change your personality and watch your writing change as well, but also the reverse is true! Sometimes there are personality traits that we wish we did not have, but we don't know how to get rid of them. One way to change your personality is to use handwriting therapy. The person learns how to change their writing to rid themselves of unwanted traits, and practices this under the watchful eye of a trained graphologist (笔迹学家)．Handwriting analysis is becoming a recognized part of therapy. Analyzing handwriting has many different aspects. For instance, it is used in the court of law when dealing with fake documents. Companies are beginning to hire handwriting analysts to assist them in finding the right person for the right job. This is because handwriting analysis is a science —it is not guesswork. It is used as a tool to determine the compatibility (适应性) of an individual to the requirements of a job as well as the compatibility of one individual to another.All in all, handwriting analysis is scientific and has endless possibilities. Next time you see someone's signature or handwriting, you now know that this person's personality is right out there in front of you, just waiting to be discovered!5．Which of the following is NOT associated with handwriting according to the first paragraph?A．fingerprints B．occupationsC．relationships D．personal problems6．Why do people want to make handwriting analysis?A．Because analyzing handwriting goes back to the 1600s.B．Because analyzing handwriting originated in Europe.C．Because many personality traits can be found in handwriting.D．Because printing has some limitations.7．What is the main idea of Paragraph 3?A．Handwriting is very interesting.B．Handwriting therapy can help change your personality.C．Your personality can change your handwriting.D．Your handwriting is hard to change.8．Companies hire handwriting analysts ________.A．to beautify the employees' signatureB．to deal with fake documentsC．to decide the requirements of a jobD．to help find the right employee9．We can infer from the last paragraph that ________.A．there are still many waiting to be discovered in handwritingB．discovering a person's personality is difficultC．handwriting analysis makes no senseD．different person has different handwriting答案The world of our senses单元检测(A卷——全员必做)Ⅰ.1.选B根据There's a car coming (有汽车过来了)和Thank you可知，说话人在提醒对方注意车辆，故选B。
