In past decades,pandas were rarely spotted in Liziba,a situation that only changed in recent years.When experts from Baishuijiang National Nature Reserve and the Beijing-based Shan Shui Conservation Center conducted research into Liziba's bio-diversity,they found that it was facing internal as well as external threats.Criminals would conduct illegal hunting and logging,and the remote location of

人教版高中英语必修三Unit5单元测试卷及答案
人教版高中英语必修三Unit5单元测试卷一、阅读理解AIn the 1950s, a family who owned a farm near Beulah, Michigan kept a bull chained to an elm (榆树). The bull paced around the tree, dragging the heavy iron chain, which led to a groove (槽) in the bark. The groove deepened over the years, though for whatever reason, it did not kill the tree.After some years, the family took their bull away. They cut the chain, leaving the loop (圈) around the tree and one link hanging down.Then one year, agricultural disaster struck Michigan in the form of Dutch Elm Disease. All of the elms lining the road leading to the farm became infected and died. Everyone thought that the old elm would be next.The farm’s owners considered doing the safe thing：pulling it out and cutting it up into firewood before it died. But they simply could not bring themselves to do it. It was as if the old tree had become a family friend. So, they decided to let nature take its course.Amazingly, the tree did not die. Nobody could understand why it was the only elm that was still standing in the country!Plant pathologists(病理学家) from Michigan State University came out to observe the tree. They observed the scar left by the iron chain, now almost completely covered by bark. The plant experts decided that it was the chain that saved the elm’s life. They reasoned that the tree must have absorbed so much iron from the chain that it became immune (免疫) to the fungus (真菌).It’s said that what doesn’t kill you will make you stronger. Or, as Ernest Hemingway put it, “Life breaks us all, but afterwards, many of us are strongest at the broken places. ”1. What happened to the elms in Michigan during the agricultural disaster?A. The elms were tied by iron chains.B. Some of the elms were cut up into firewood.C. All the elms were infected by a disease and died.D. Nearly all of the elms died of a disease.2. From the passage we can learn that the old elm was saved by________.A. the groove in the barkB. the fungus in the treeC. the iron remaining in itD. its own immune system3. The underlined sentence “let nature take its course” means______.A. leave the elm at the mercy of natureB. help the elm grow normallyC. let nature take the elm awayD. have nature give a lesson to the elm4. What is the best title for the text?A. Never Lose Heart in TroubleB. Strike While the Iron is HotC. Brave to Face FailureD. Stronger after SufferingBSome futurologists have assumed that the vast upsurge(剧增)of women in the workforce may portend a rejection of marriage. Many women, according to this hypothesis, would rather work than marry. The converse(反面)of this concern is that the prospects of becoming a multi-paycheck household could encourage marriage. In the past, only the earnings and financial prospects of the man counted in the marriage decision. Now, however, the earning ability of a woman can make her more attractive as a marriage partner. Data show that economic downturns tend to putting offmarriage because the parties cannot afford to establish a family or are concerned about rainy days ahead. As the economy comes to life, the number of marriages also rises.The increase in divorce rates follows to the increase in women working outside the home. Yet, it may be wrong to jump to any simple cause-and-effect conclusions. The impact of a wife’s work on divorce is no less cloudy than its impact on marriage decisions. The realization that she can be a good provider may increase the chances that a working wife will choose divorce over an unsatisfactory marriage. But the reverse is equally plausible(似是而非的). Tensions grounded in financial problems often play a key role in ending a marriage. By raising a family’s standard of living, a working wife may strengthen her family’s financial an d emotional stability.Psychological factors also should be considered. For example, a wife blocked from a career outside the home may feel caged in the house. She may view her only choice as seeking a divorce. On the other hand, if she can find fulfillment through work outside the home, work and marriage can go together to create a stronger and more stable union.Also, a major part of women’s inequality in marriage has been due to the fact that, in most cases, men have remained the main breadwinners. A working wife may rob a husband of being the master of the house. Depending upon how the couple reacts to these new conditions, it could create a stronger equal partnership, or it could create new insecurities.5. The word “portend” (Line 2, Para. 1) is closest in meaning to“_____”.A. defyB. signalC. suffer fromD. result from6. It is said in the passage that when the economy slides_____.A. men would choose working women as their marriage partnersB. more women would get married to seek financial securityC. even working women would worry about their marriagesD. more people would prefer to remain single for the time being7. If women find fulfillment through work outside the home,_____.A. they are more likely to dominate their marriage partnersB. their husbands are expected to do more houseworkC. their marriage ties can be strengthenedD. they tend to put their career before marriage8. One reason why women with no career may seek a divorce is that_____.A. they feel that they have been robbed of their freedomB. they are afraid of being bossed around by their husbandsC. they feel that their partners fail to live up to their expectationsD. they tend to suspect their husbands? loyalty to their marriageCEight days for just ¥ 12,000Departs: May, October 2017Includes:•Return flights from 6 China’s airports to Naples•Return airport to hotel transport•Seven nights’ accommodation at the 3 star Hotel Nice•Breakfast•The service of guides•Government taxesJoin us for a wonderful holiday in one of the Europe’s most wonderful comers—Naples in Italy if you want to have a nice time in a beautiful small quiet place.

Quiet people.D. Old people.DIt is 7 am and the alarm is going off. You know you have to be out of bed to catch the bus. But the urge to bury yourself in the bed is ever so strong. Sounds familiar? Why is it that teens find it difficult to get themselves out of bed in time every morning or stay sharp and focused during the first couple of hours of school?During adolescence, the body goes through many changes and these include a shift in sleep patterns. Researchers from MIT have been tracking the body’s n eed for sleep in teenagers. They found that though adolescents need as much as 9. 5 hours of sleep a day, they get to bed later and later with each passing year. In fact, the sleep cycle shifts later by as much as 12 to 18 minutes each year between the ages of 10 and 20! So by the time a 10-year-old who sleeps at 8 pm grows to be 17 or 18, his body naturally wants to stay up till 10：30 pm or 11 pm.According to researchers, this is because of a hormone called melatonin (褪黑激素) that is secreted (分泌) by the pineal gland — a tiny structure deep inside the brain. Melatonin regulates the body’s natural day night rhythms. It causes a person to become sleepy by lowering his body’s core temperature. In teens, melatonin is secreted much later in the evening and continues to increase throughout the night. This makes it difficult for teens to fall asleep earlier as they did in their younger years. Likewise, the effect of melatonin continues until much later in the morning, making it hard for them to wake up early.A study found that at least one in four teens is tired and falls asleep in school at least once a week. During sleep, important body functions and brain activities happen. So how can teenagersget their sleep enough? The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends that middle and high schools should start later — not before 8：30 am. This should give teens some more time to sleep at night.13. From Paragraph 2, we can learn that if you sleep late, the next day you should ________.A. stay sharpB. skip breakfastC. get up lateD. stay up late14. What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A. The students want to stay up.B. The shifts of the sleep cycle.C. The pineal gland secretes melatonin.D. The adolescents sleep late.15. The teens go to sleep later than before because ________.A. melatonin is secreted much laterB. melatonin regulates the sleep timeC. they sleep a lot in the daytimeD. they need to finish their homework二、七选五Small talk is a good way to make friends. If you travel to other countries or have friends from abroad, do you know how to use small talk to make conversation?In Britain, the best topic is the weather. British weather is changing all the time. 16 Besides weather, it’s good to talk about gardens with British. You could say “Those roses look really beautiful, don’t they?” 17 .So it’s also nice to start with “What a lovely dog! What is his name?”In America, people like to talk about sports news ,such as American football and basketball. 18 So you might say “It’s a nice shirt! Where did you get it?” Weather is a safe topic there, too.19 Don’t ask people “How old are you?” Never ask: “How much money do you make?” It makes people uncomfortable. Don’t ask strangers weather they are married. 20 There are others in our daily life.A. You can start chatting by saying “It’s a lovely day today, isn’t it?”B. There are also a lot of topics to avoid during small talk.C. Friends are important to us all, but how to make friends is a problem.D. Americans also talk about clothes.E. Politics or religion is not a good topic.F. English people love their pets.G. Only a few topics are not used for small talk.三、完型填空I often read of incidents of misunderstanding or conflict. I’m left 21 . Why do these people create mistrust and problems, especially with those from other 22 ?I was growing up in Kuala Lumpur in the early 1960s, 23 children from different races and religions played and studied 24 in harmony. At that time my family lived a stone’s__ 25 from Ismail’s. And no one was bothered that Ismail was a Malay Muslim and I was an Indian Hindu-we just 26 our differences. Perhaps, our elders had not filled our heads with unnecessary advice, well 27 or otherwise.We were nine when we became friends. During the school holidays, we’d 28 the countryside on our bicycles, hoping to 29 the unexpected. At times Ismail would accompany my family as we made a rare shopping trip to town. We would be glad of his 30 .When I was twelve, my family moved to Johor. Ismail’s family later returned to their village, and I 31 touch with him.One spring afternoon in 1983, I stopped a taxi in Kuala Lumpur. I 32 my destination. The driver acknowledged my 33 but did not move off. Instead, he looked 34 at me. “Raddar?”he said, using my childhood nickname(绰号). I was astonished at being so 35 addressed(称呼). Unexpectedly! It was Ismail! Even after two 36 we still recognized each other. Grasping his shoulder, I felt a true affection, something 37 to describe.If we can allow our children to be 38 without prejudice, they’ll build frie ndships with people, regardless of race or religion, who will be 39 their side through thick and thin. On such friendships are societies build and 40 we can truly be, as William Shakespeare once wrote, “we happy few, we band of brothers”.21. A. interested B. pleased C. puzzled D. excited22. A. parties B. cities C. villages D. races23. A. why B. which C. how D. when24. A. together B. around C. alone D. apart25. A. drop B. throw C. move D. roll26.

In 1535 the king of France ordered a navigator Cartier exploring the New World and look a passage to India. Cartier first reached the Gulf of theSt. Lawrence which he wanted to make an exploration. Hope this Gulf was just an arm of the ocean between the island he sailed upstream along the river. However, they arrived at Quebec or Stadacona as he Indians called it instead of the Asia. It was not until then when the term “Canada” entered the country’s history. Now it is apparent known that it comes from an Indian word “Kanata” and meant community or village. What a huge “village” Canada is!六、书面表达如今，我们身边不乏“低头族”。

AWhen I was just 16, my father decided to turn an old guesthouse into a hotel, and he experimented with everything. None of us had ever worked in a hotel before, but my dad was sure of what guests would like to see.For a month that summer, I served as a waitress (女服务员) at breakfast and dinner, which gave me the middle of the day free for studying. Like all the others, I did what the instructions said and treated the guests as though they were special visitors in my own home.I soon learned how to deal with the most daunting person in the kitchen: the cook, Gordon. He had a great ability to become very angry for no clear reason. I avoided him as much as possible and always took the dishes with a frozen expression on my face which was turned into a sweet smile in the space between kitchen and dining room.Breakfast waitressing was, I found, more enjoyable than the dinner service. The guests came wandering into the dining room, looking with appreciation at the viewof the sea and islands through the dining room window. It was funny how differently people behaved in the evenings, dressed up and talking with louder, colder voices, not always returning my smile. However, that all changed when Dad created a special role for me.It began with a few common cakes for the guests' packed lunches and progressed to fancy cakes for afternoon teas. This led to the climax (高潮): a nightly show known as Lucy's Sweet Trolley. Every evening, I carried the most amazing collection of cakes and other desserts. Most were things I had invented myself and I had cooked all of them. Some — Jacobite Grenades, Mocha Genghis Khan and Goat's Milk Bavarios to name a few — were really strange. It was Dad's idea that I should dress smartly and stop at each table and recite the name of each dish.21. What did the people working at the hotel have in common?A.

Edmontonians are hoping more can be done to preserve (保留) more of the city's history.“The reason the area is popular in the first place is because it's a historic neighbourhood. And I think it's important that we preserve that history,” said Mark Wilson, owner of Vivid Print, a shop on Whyte Avenue at 103 Street.Wilson's business is located in a building two doors down from the Etzio, a building that is more than a century old. But after 117 years on Whyte Avenue, the building is coming down to make way for a new three-floor development.“It has become acceptable to simply pull down old buildings and put up new buildings that look old,” said Wilson. “The words on the sidewalks here say historic area. Well, it's not historic if all the buil dings are 10 years old.”It's a move that disappoints Wilson and others on the street who believe more should be done to keep the character of Edmonton.“I think in this area it's important because it keeps the flavour of Edmonton, and Edmon ton is known for Whyte Ave.,” said a woman on Saturday afternoon.“Some of the old culture should still be there, I think,” added a man who was walking along the street. “It makes Edmonton unique (独一无二的). Without it, it just becomes another mall or it coul d be any other city in the world.”Wilson — looking fondly at the old building — believes a little piece of history is lost with every building that's torn down.After the Etzio building is torn down, the Old Strathcona Hotel and the Ross building will be the only two buildings left from the 1800s.25. Why does Wilson consider the Etzio important?A. It helps him develop his business.B. His neighbours live there.C. It's a symbol of history.D. His shop is inside it.26. In Wilson's eyes, what will be done to the city is _____.A. acceptableB. popularC. unpleasantD. strange27. What does the underlined word “it” in the text refer to?A. The Etzio building.B. The old culture.C. Edmonton.D. The street.28. What can be the best title for the text?A. 117-year-old building to be torn downB. New development being met with disagreementsC. Edmonton business owner makes a moveD. Old buildings in Edmonton face an uncertain futureCFC Barcelona's football academy (专门学校), La Masia, has trained some of the best footballers in Europe, such as Pep Guardiola, Lionel Messi and Gerard Pique. Many people believe that Barcelona is the best football team in Europe because of the training programme at the school. Now, FC Barcelona has opened similar academies all around the world, including in Egypt, Japan, America and Dubai.It is difficult to join the Barcelona academy. Every year, over 1,000 students apply (申请), but only 70 students can live and study at the school. They are aged between 11 and 18. Seventy coaches, teachers, doctors and cooks look after the students. The academy costs about £5 million a year to run. But the students all have scholarships (奖学金), so they don't pay any money. FC Barcelona pays for everything: the students' rooms, teachers, books and food.However, the students don't only learn football. FC Barcelona also wants to give their students a good academic education. It is important to the club that their students can still get good jobs if they don't become professional (职业的) footballers.Students travel by bus to local schools each morning for four hours of study. The footballers return to La Masia after lunch and do football training in the afternoons.But is the students' academic education good enough? All the football training must make the students very tired and they spend less time at school than other children. That doesn't matter if you are one of the students who are good enough to become a professional footballer. But what happens to all the children who don't make it onto the team? La Masia produces excellent football players, but it is important to ask what happens to all the other children who train there.29.
