He graduated from Harvard University, which sends few players to the NBA, and heis the only ChineseAmerican NBA player. But when you watch him on the cour t,there is no doubt that he belongs there. He moves with speed and grace that demonstrate years of faithful practice, which is fueled by a love for basketball.Lin's enjoyment of basketball actually began in Taiwan. When Lin's father moved to U．S., his interest in the sport only grew and he passed on this love of basketball to his son, introducing him to the game at the age of five. The youngLin spent much of his youth playing basketball for fun.In high school, Lin dreamed of playing in the NBA. When he applied for college, he was not offered a single sports scholarship. However, after his admission to Harvard, he was offered a place on its college basketball team.During Lin's time at Harvard, his basketball career began to speed up. He scored 1，482 points, making him one of the highest scorers in Ivy League history.When he graduated, no professional teams offered Lin a contract, but he was invited to play in the NBA Summer League. He played well and ended up eagerly signing a contract with the Golden State Warriors.At first, playing in professional games filled Lin with excitement. He treasured opportunities to meet players he had been watching on TV for years. But slowly, the excitement wore_off and was replaced by anxiety. In a few verydifficult months, he was cut by two teams before the New York Knicks picked him up.But he had the courage and determination to stick to his dream, so he put himself into hard training to get ready for his opportunity to come. Then his moment arrived on February 4，2012, on which his excellent performance made him famous overnight. After that, he led the Knicks to their fifth straight victory.The Associated Press called Lin “the most surprising story in the NBA”. Knicks fans developed the nickname for him “Linsanity” (林发疯). Time magazinereleased its 2012 list of the 100 “Most Influential People in the World”，Jeremy Lin included.No doubt, Lin fever is continuing to spread if you haven't already caught “Linsanity”， get ready.11．Which of the following elements is of little help in Lin's success?A．His father's influence.B．His devotion to basketball.C．His years of hard work.D．His graduation from Harvard University.12．What does the underlined phra se “wore off” in seventh paragraph probably mean?A．arose B．disappearedC．grew D．remained13．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A．Lin learned to play basketball when he was eight.B．Before Lin there was no ChineseAmerican NBA players.C．Lin was excited for professional games and did a good job at the beginning.D．Lin is the most outstanding player in NBA.14．Which is the right order for Lin's life?a．He made an excellent performance on Feb.4.b．He was fired by the Golden State Warriors.c．He was invited to play in the NBA Summer League.d．He graduated from Harvard University.e．He became famous overnight.A．a, d, c, b, e B．d, b, c, a, eC．d, c, b, a, e D．a, e, d, c, b15．It can be inferred from the passage that ________.A．NBA prefers graduates from Harvard UniversityB．Lin got an easy entry into NBAC．Lin didn't show his basketball talents in Harvard UniversityD．Lin didn't have a smooth road in NBAB[2012·广东卷]Sports account for a growing amount of income made on the sales of commercial time by television companies. Many television companies have used sports toattract viewers from particular sections of the general public, and then they have sold audiences to advertisers.An attraction of sport programs for the major U. S. media companies is that events are often held on Saturday and Sunday afternoons—the slowest time periods of the week for general television viewing. Sport events are the most popular weekend programs, especially among male viewers who may not watch much television at other times during the week. This means the television networks are able tosell advertising time at relatively high prices during what normally would be dead time for programming.Media corporations also use sports to attract commercial sponsors that might take their advertising dollars elsewhere if television stations did not report certain sports. The people in the advertising departments of major corporations realize that sports attract male viewers. They also realize that most businesstravelers are men and that many men make family decisions on the purchases of computers, cars and life insurance.Golf and tennis are special cases for television programming. These sports attract few viewers, and the ratings (收视率) are unusually low. However, the audience for these sports is attractive to certain advertisers. It is made up of people from the highest income groups in the United States, including many lawyers and business managers. This is why television reporting of golf and tennis is sponsored by companies selling highpriced cars, business and personal compute rs, and holiday trips. This is also why the networks continue to carry these programs regardless of low ratings. Advertisers are willing to pay high fees to reachhighincome consumers and those managers who make decisions to buy thousands of “company cars” and computers. With such viewers, these programs don't need high ratings to stay on the air.16. Television sport programs on weekend afternoons ________．A．result in more sport eventsB．get more viewers to play sportsC．make more people interested in televisionD．bring more money to the television networks17. Why would weekend afternoons become dead time without sport programs?A．Because there would be few viewers.B．Because the advertisers would be off work.C．Because television programs would go slowly.D．Because viewers would pay less for watching television.18. In many families, men make decisions on ________．A．holiday trips B．sports viewingC．television shopping D．expensive purchases19. The ratings are not important for golf and tennis programs because________．A．their advertisers are carmakersB．their viewers are attracted by sportsC．their advertisers target at rich peopleD．their viewers can afford expensive cars20. What is the passage mainly about?A．Television ratings are determined by male viewers.B．Rich viewers contribute most to television companies.C．Sports are gaining importance in advertising on television.D．Commercial advertisers are the major sponsors of sport events.Ⅲ.读写任务阅读下面的短文，然后按照要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。

It belonged to a friend, and Zach forgot it was there as he played his way to victory in a junior tournament (锦标赛) this summer in Wisconsin, US.The 14yearold accepted his medal, and celebrated with grandparents who hadcome from a long way to watch. But when he stopped by his country club to share the news, a professional player noticed something wrong.“Count your clubs，” he told the teenager.Fifteen — one more than allowed. Zach's eyes filled with tears.If Zach had just won a basketball championship or a soccer game and someone had discovered an offence after the win, it would not have mattered.Bending the rules has become acceptable, if not encouraged, in many sports. It is nothing unusual for soccer players to make a turtle dive (假摔) in the hope of drawing fouls (犯规)．Golf is different. In a winatallcosts world, the game holds itself to a higher standard.Golf isn't a game where referees watch closely. In golf tournaments, dozens of competitors are spread across acres of land, so officials cannot hope to see each shot. Competitors call penalties on themselves.Players feel the weight of history. Golf dates to at least the 15th century, but it became popular as a pastime (消遣) for the wealthy who seemed to have strict codes for every occasion, even when it came to shooting at each other in rights.“It was a sport for gentlemen, not laborers, and gentlemen did not care about winning. They cared about doing the right thing，” said Robert Simon, a golf coach at Hamilton College in New York.Honesty became a symbol of honor. When one of the game's early stars, Bobby Jones, was praised for calling a penalty on himself at the 1925 US Open. He replied: “You might as well praise a man for not robbing a bank.”So even the error had no effect on Zach's final score —he never used the extra club, the teenager packed up his medal and dropped it in the mail. “But this was golf, and rules are rules. I just knew what I had to do，” he said.Then came another tournament. Before teeing_off,_Zach counted his clubs four times.1．How many clubs is a player allowed to take along in a golf tournament ?A．15. B．14.C．16.

And while the study couldn't determine whether soft drinks actually cause violence, the findings add to a growing body of research on the effects of nutrition on behavior.[2]“We hadn't expected to see such a large effect，”said David Hemenway, director of the Harvard School of Public Health's Injury Control Research Center in Boston.[3] There has long been interest in how diet affects behavior. A 2006 study in Norway found that teens who drank a large quantity of soft drinks suffered from worse mental health compared to those who drank fewer. A study published earlier this year found higher levels of antisocial behavi or in American college students who drank the most soda.[4] For the latest study, Hemenway surveyed more than 1,800 students in Boston public schools. During 40minute sessions, kids answered questions about how much nondiet soda they had drunk in the p ast seven days, whether they had been violent towards others, and whether they had carried a knife around in the previous year.[5] Nearly 30 percent of respondents reported consuming more than five cans ofsoda each week. 23 percent of teens who drank less than one soft drink a week reported carrying a weapon, compared to 43 percent who drank five or more cans a week. Also, violence towards peers rose from 35 percent in the lowconsumption group to 59 percent in the heaviest sodadrinkers.[6] It's far too soon to claim that soda causes violence, and the new study only shows a link, says Bernard Gesch, who researches diet and behavior at the University of Oxford in the United Kingdom. Still, there is growing evidence that ________ some of the blame.1．What would be the best title for the passage？(no more than 6 words)________________________________________________________________________ 2．What did David Hemenway think of his findings？(no more than 5 words) ________________________________________________________________________ 3．What did the 2006 study in Norway focus on？(no more than 10 words)________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ 4．How did David Hemenway carry out his study？(no more than 12 words)________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ 5．Fill in the blank in the last paragraph with proper words.(no more than 8 words)________________________________________________________________________答案课时跟踪检测(七)Ⅰ.1.选C 考查交际用语。

Right now the technology is low-resolution. The initial study was conducted in the MIT swimming pool at maximum depths of around 11 or 12 feet. The next steps for the researchers are to see if TARF is workable at much greater depths and under varying conditions—high waves, storms, schools of fish. They also want to see if they can make the technology work in the other direction—air to water.

Unit 2 The Olympic Games课时作业Ⅰ.阅读理解(2019·厦门模拟)Did you know that the color of uniforms can influence the performance of an athlete? It may sound strange，but a study suggests this might be true.Two British scientists studied the results of four sports in the 2004 Athens Olympic Games where the athletes had been given either a red or a blue uniform.They discovered that when there was a big difference in the score，color had no influence on the result.But if it was a close match，the athlete in a red uniform was more likely to win.Then they looked at the uniforms of the soccer teams at the Euro 2004 tournament.Again，teams wearing red won more games.The two scientists got their idea from earlier studies of wild animals.It had been discovered that when a male show red on its body，it sends a signal of its power and strength.For example，in many kinds of monkey，the more the male shows off its red scars，the more females it can attract.Based on this fact，the British scientists thought that the idea might work for humans，too.According to them，when an athlete sees a competitor in a red uniform，he gets a feeling that his competitor could be stronger than him.And that_kind_of_feeling may have a bad influence on the player's performance in the actual game.Although the idea is interesting，most people don't accept that color signals in the animals world can really be useful to humans in sports.They think that it is unreasonable to develop an idea based on such a small number of examples.Much more research has to be done to prove the influence of uniform colors on the performance of athletes.【文章大意】本文属于科普类文章。

Unlike many pop singers，especially those who do not write their own material，Swift has the power of turning her ideas into lyrics that will set people thinking.“Hidden beneath Taylor Swift’s notagirl，notyetawoman sweetness is a very skillful songwriting technique，” wrote Leah Greenblatt in an American magazine.Songwriting，as Swift explains，is to cope with issues.“I tend to write about things that really impact me most.” There certainly seems to be something true and honest running through every one of the 14 songs on her album，Speak Now，about “the lessons and confusion and heartbreak and all the different things that go along with being 18,19 and 20.”“For the audience too young to have experienced real passion or heartbreak，Swift’s songs are like a potential road map，promising things will work ou t OK，” commented Dorian ynskey in a British newspaper.Now Swift is getting ready to go further and has so far written about 10 songs f or her 2012 album，which i s about feelings of growing up and becoming an adult.“They’re sad，if I’m being honest.”“They’re about my heartbreaks and my moving on.But more importantly，they are about achieving contentment.You’re not always going to be perfectly happy as you grow up.”1．What does the writer mean by saying “Werde’s words do not come from nowhere”？A．Swift stands out as a singer and songwriter.B．Only Swift writes her own songs.C．Swift begins to take interest in singing.D．Swift decides to deal with problems in her new album.2．Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?A．Swift has the ability to write songs with deeper meanings.B．Swift is both enthusiastic and skillful now.C．Swift became a multiaward winner when she began to sing on the stage.D．Swift’s album Speak Now has 14 songs.3．Taylor Swift’s 2012 album mainly records________.A．dream and reality B．heartbreak and despairC．pain and growth D．problems and society4．What is the best title for the passage?A．Swift comes to people’s attentionB．Swift rises to fameC．Swift wins many awardsD．Swift experiences real passionB(2013·西安市第一次质量检测)More than half of rich Americans have not shown their full wealth to their children，a new survey showed last Tuesday.The survey，published by the Bank of America，studied the rich with $3 million or more in assets.It found that “surprisin gly few of those surveyed have welldeveloped plans to preserve and pass on their assets to their children”．The majority of the 457 people surveyed are selfmade，firstgeneration rich.Fiftytwo percent of parents have chosen not to tell their children jus t how wealthy they are，and 15 percent have given away nothing about the family wealth.One in three parents said they had never thought to do it.They are worried that their children would become lazy，spend money freely，make bad decisions and even become a target for gold diggers.Only 34 percent strongly agreed that their children would be able to han dle any inheritance (遗产) they plan to leave them.“There is an expectation about the wealthy parents that they have a responsibility to pass down their fortune to the next generation，” said Sallie Krawcheck，president of the Global Wealth and Investment Management of the Bank of America.“Our research，however，uncovered changing views of what one generation owes the next.”The trend is led by the world’s richest m an Bill Gates，who promised in 2008 that he would leave his $58 billion fortune to the charity started by him and his wife，the Bill and Malinda Gates Foundation (基金会)，and not to his children.“We want to give it back to society in the way that it will have the most positive impact，” he said.Of his plans for his children，Gates said：“I will give the kids some money but not a meaningful percentage...they will need to work but they will feel reasonably taken care of.”5．We can learn from the passage that________.A．rich parents may not know how to manage their inheritanceB．rich parents don’t equal rich kids，at least in the USC．American children don’t get to inherit their parents’ wealthD．poor children don’t expect themselves to be as rich as their parents 6．According to the survey，most rich Americans________.A．think they owe their children nothingB．think it best to give their money back to societyC．doubt their children’s ability to handle wealthD．are confid ent of their children’s ability to handle wealth7．The underlined word “they” in Paragraph 6 refers to________.A．responsible children B．Bill Gates and his wifeC．firstgeneration rich D．rich parents8．From the last paragraph，we can see that Bill Gates wants to show________.A．the trend of leaving no inheritance to childrenB．the positive impact of charity on societyC．the way of giving back to societyD．the importance of independence for children答案：课时作业(七)Ⅰ.单项填空1．解析：考查情景交际。

He graduated from Harvard University, which sends few players to the NBA, and heis the only ChineseAmerican NBA player. But when you watch him on the court,there is no doubt that he belongs there. He moves with speed and grace that demonstrate years of faithful practice, which is fueled by a love for basketball.Lin's enjoyment of basketball actually began in Taiwan. When Lin's father moved to U．S., his interest in the sport only grew and he passed on this love of basketball to his son, introducing him to the game at the age of five. The youngLin spent much of his youth playing basketball for fun.In high school, Lin dreamed of playing in the NBA. When he applied for college, he was not offered a single sports scholarship.

He played well and ended up eagerly signing a contract with the Golden State Warriors.At first, playing in professional games filled Lin with excitement. He treasured opportunities to meet players he had been watching on TV for years. But slowly, the excitement wore_off and was replaced by anxiety. In a few verydifficult months, he was cut by two teams before the New York Knicks picked him up.But he had the courage and determination to stick to his dream, so he put himself into hard training to get ready for his opportunity to come. Then his moment arrived on February 4，2012, on which his excellent performance made him famous overnight. After that, he led the Knicks to their fifth straight victory.The Associated Press called Lin “the most surprising story in the NBA”. Knicks fans developed the nickname for him “Linsanity” (林发疯).

Many television companies have used sports toattract viewers from particular sections of the general public, and then they have sold audiences to advertisers.An attraction of sport programs for the major U. S. media companies is that events are often held on Saturday and Sunday afternoons—the slowest time periods of the week for general television viewing. Sport events are the most popular weekend programs, especially among male viewers who may not watch much television at other times during the week. This means the television networks are able tosell advertising time at relatively high prices during what normally would be dead time for programming.Media corporations also use sports to attract commercial sponsors that might take their advertising dollars elsewhere if television stations did not report certain sports. The people in the advertising departments of major corporations realize that sports attract male viewers. They also realize that most business travelers are men and that many men make family decisions on the purchases of computers, cars and life insurance.Golf and tennis are special cases for television programming. These sports attract few viewers, and the ratings (收视率) are unusually low. However, the audience for these sports is attractive to certain advertisers. It is made up of people from the highest income groups in the United States, including many lawyers and business managers. This is why television reporting of golf and tennis is sponsored by companies selling highpriced cars, bus iness and personal computers, and holiday trips. This is also why the networks continue to carry these programs regardless of low ratings. Advertisers are willing to pay high fees to reachhighincome consumers and those managers who make decisions to buy thousands of “company cars” and computers. With such viewers, these programs don't need high ratings to stay on the air.16. Television sport programs on weekend afternoons ________．A．result in more sport eventsB．get more viewers to play sportsC．make more people interested in televisionD．bring more money to the television networks17. Why would weekend afternoons become dead time without sport programs?A．Because there would be few viewers.B．Because the advertisers would be off work.C．Because television programs would go slowly.D．Because viewers would pay less for watching television.18. In many families, men make decisions on ________．A．holiday trips B．sports viewingC．television shopping D．expensive purchases19. The ratings are not important for golf and tennis programs because________．A．their advertisers are carmakersB．their viewers are attracted by sportsC．their advertisers target at rich peopleD．their viewers can afford expensive cars20. What is the passage mainly about?A．Television ratings are determined by male viewers.B．Rich viewers contribute most to television companies.C．Sports are gaining importance in advertising on television.D．Commercial advertisers are the major sponsors of sport events.Ⅲ.读写任务阅读下面的短文，然后按照要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。

核心素养测评七必修2 Unit 2 The Olympic Games(限时35分钟)Ⅰ. 阅读理解ABreakdancing is set to make its debut(首次亮相) as an Olympic sport at Paris 2024, Tony Estanguet, head of the Paris organizing committee, said on February 21. Skateboarding, sport climbing and surfing which have already been added to the 2024 Tokyo Olympics, have been invited to return in Paris.Estanguet said the choices responded to a need to make the Olympics “more urban” and “more artistic”. “We have chosen to present the International Olympic Committee (IOC) with the four sports because they are creative, appealing to youth and completely in line with our vision. They reflect perfectly Paris 2024’s identity. ”Breakdancing is an example of a sport “which can be played anywhere and anytime in urban and other environments. ” It appeared at the 2024 Youth Olympics in Buenos Aires in the form of head-to-head “battles”. In competitive breakdancing, breakers face off in “battles” against each other, either as individuals or teams. Breakdancers use a mix of physical and artistic skills combining elements from gymnastics or acrobatics(杂技).The IOC had announced that the number of competitors at Paris 2024 would be restricted to 10, 500, which limited the opportunity to add sports. But the organizers said the inclusion would not necessitate the construction of permanent facilities and would involve just 248 competitors, including 32 breakdancers. The surfing events are likely to be held in established surf center such as Biarritz or Lacanau in southwest France.The inclusion still needs to be rubberstamped by the IOC, which is expected to decide on which sports to add in Paris after next year’s Tokyo Games.【文章大意】这是一篇新闻报道。
