课时作业(十三) Unit 5 Section ⅠWarming up & ReadingⅠ.阅读理解AAustinAustin is home to the fastest growing pre­senior (aged 55-64) population. Many retirees take classes through the Continuing Education Program, and the university system is a primary reason why people decide to relocate. It is the engine that drives the cultural offerings of the community including museums, galleries and open air markets and multiple performing art theaters. Austin is not only energetic but inexpensive. It has a low cost of living, and its cost of housing is 15 percent below the national average. For retirees looking for a quiet and cool place to settle down, Austin may not be your ideal. The summers are hot and humid, and with a population of more than 650,000, the city is fairly large and fast­paced.AtlantaAtlanta has been attracting many retirees looking for an international city since the 1996 Olympics. One of the major selling points for the city is price. Atlantic and its suburbs offer a wide variety of communities and pricing options. It also has a fairly low cost of living. The disadvantage of the city besides its summer heat and humidity is its growth. Its population increases, and so does the amount of traffic and crime.MilwaukeeThe winters may be freezing, but retirees who call Milwaukee their home say that they like the freezing winters. They talk about many ethnic neighborhoods, including German, Polish and Italian, and dozens of festivals that take place throughout the year. The city of Milwaukee has worked to maintain its appeal by building a river­walk system and by trying to make the city pedestrian­friendly. The city also operates five fitness centers where the retirees can work out for free. For many retirees, Milwaukee is a cost­effective alternative to Chicago.Santa FeSanta Fe is a cultural destination at the perfect altitude. It is known for its art and at 7,000 feet its climate is fairly moderate all year round. It is also home to more than 300 art galleries and more than a dozen museums. With a population of little over 70,000, Santa Fe has become a popular retirement destination and its popularity has caused housing prices to be relatively high.1.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the first paragraph?A.Austin is home to the fastest growing pre­senior population.B.Austin is not only energetic but inexpensive.C.Austin is ideal for retirees looking for a quiet and cool place to settle down.D.The summers of Austin are hot and humid.2.Which retirement spot has the most pleasant climate?A.Austin B.Atlanta.C.Milwaukee. D.Santa Fe.3.If you are fond of art, you are advised to settle in ________.A.Austin and Santa FeB.Austin and AtlantaC.Atlanta and MilwaukeeD.Milwaukee and Santa FeBIn the second half of each year, many powerful storms are born in the tropical Atlantic and Caribbean seas. Of these, only about half a dozen generate the strong, circling winds of 75 miles per hour or more that give them hurricane status, and several usually make their way to the coast. There they cause millions of dollars of damage, and bring death to large numbers of people.The great storms that hit the coast start as innocent circling disturbances (气旋) hundreds—even thousands - of miles out to sea. As they travel aimlessly over water warmed by the summer sun, they are carried westward by the trade winds. When conditions are just right, warm, moist (潮湿的) air flows in at the bottom of such a disturbance, moves upward through it and comes out at the top. In the process, the moisture in this warm air produces rain, and with it the heat is switched to energy in the form of strong winds. As the heat increases, the young hurricane begins to turn around in a counter­clockwise motion (逆时针方向).The average life of a hurricane is only about nine days, but it contains almost more power than we can imagine. The energy in the heat released (释放) by a hurricane's rainfall in a single day would satisfy the entire electrical needs of the United States for more than six months.Water, rather than wind, is the main source of death and destroying in a hurricane.A typical hurricane brings 6­to­12­inch downpours resulting in sudden floods. Worst of all is the powerful movement of the sea—the mountains of water moving towards the low­pressure hurricane center. The water level rises as much as 15 feet above normal as it moves towards shore.4.An ordinary tropical storm is called a hurricane when ________.A.it occurs in the Caribbean seasB.its winds reach 75 miles per hourC.it makes its way to the coastlineD.its winds begin to circle on the sea5.The counter­clockwise movement of the hurric ane is caused by ________.A.the low­pressure area in the center of the stormB.the force of waves of waterC.the increasing heatD.the trade winds6.What does the third paragraph mainly talk about?A.The hurricane is extraordinarily powerful.B.The hurricane is used to generate electricity.C.The hurricane can otherwise offer an unusual sightD.The hurricane can give people an unforgettable experience.7.What is the worst thing about a hurricane?A.The rough water. B.The violent winds.C.The heat it gives out. D.The length of its life.Ⅱ.阅读七选五How to pick a great book to readThe world is full of great books, just waiting to be read. How can you pick one you'll really like? Here are some tips:What makes you happy?If you have a favorite hobby or pastime, look for books about that activity.1.________Do there exist a few careers you're interested in? You can find books about almost anything you like,and you're more likely to enjoy reading a book if you're already interested in its subject.Fact or Fiction?2.________ Those are called fiction books. Novels, short stories, and fables are all examples of fiction. These books can transport you to another world or help you imagine something beyond your own experience. Nonfiction books give you the who, what, when, and why. They tell stories using facts - but that doesn't mean they're boring. Nonfiction books can bring everything to life from the first trip to the moon to what it's like to explore the deepest oceans. Many of them read books like novels from start to finish. Try both fiction and nonfiction books to see which you like better.Find a family favorite.What was your mother's favorite book when she was your age? Or your dad's? What about a sibling's?3.________Then you can talk about what they liked about it and share your thoughts. It's a fun way to get to know your family a little better, and to find a book you'll enjoy!4.________Your local library is a great place to find books that you'll love, and you don't have to search all by yourself. Tell a librarian about your interests—rock stars, sports teams, historical events, whatever you're into—and the names of some books you already like. Your librarian can help you find other books that you're sure to love. Your teacher is another good person to ask.Launch a book swap.Why not get some friends together and trade favorite books? It's always fun to see what your friends are reading. Even if they're not exactly bookworms, you can all encourage each other to read and share books and authors you like. You can also look for book swaps in your area. 5. ________A.Ask an expert.B.Set up a local library.C.Ask them and give it a read.D.Read as many books as possible.E.Some books are entirely made up and imagined.F.It's a great way to build your personal library for free!G.Are you really into dinosaurs or dogs or a specific celebrity?课时作业(十四) Unit 5 Section ⅡGrammar——动词­ing形式作状语Ⅰ.阅读理解AYou'll find it amazing to support people when you go out to eat!Just look for restaurants that hire people with disabilities, which are making the world a more inclusive place. Each bakery, cafe, and restaurant below has a wonderful and heartwarming story.Hugs Cafe:McKinney, TexasRuth Thompson once had a vision to create a nonprofit cafe that would be run and operated primarily by adults with special needs. With hard work, a strong passion and an amazing team, Hugs Cafe opened its doors in 2015. “Hugs Cafe is now so much more than a job to our 23 teammates, which is enhancing the meaningful lives of adults with special need s through training and employment at Hugs Cafe.” Thompson says.Vinny & Bay's Coffee and Eatery: Panama City, Florida“A lot of people around plan their vacations coming to this coffee shop,” says the cafe owner Kara Rigby. Vinny & Bay's Coffee and Eatery was established “so that Baylee had a place to work”, Rigby adds. Baylee is Rigby's daughter's friend who has a disability. The coffee shop's goal is to become a training spot for individuals like Baylee. Some workers have even started at Vinny & Bay's and were able to work in a regular workplace. Rigby says that her employees “have a whole lot more abilities than disabilities. They love their work unconditionally, and it changes the whole e nvironment and business”. Rigby believes that incorporating even just one or two disabled individuals into a business can change the whole atmosphere—for the better!Sugar Plum Bakery: Virginia Beach, VirginiaHead to Sugar Plum Bakery to find a delicious carrot cake and see people with disabilities successfully working alongside non­disabled workers. Sugar Plum has been promoting the integration of adults with developmental disabilities by providing training and employment opportunities to more than 1,000 people with disabilities since 1987.

The flight attendant came by and explained the situation. “We have a passenger on the plane who's blind and deaf,” she said. The passenger seemed to want something, but he was traveling alone and the flight attendants couldn't understand what he needed, according to PEOPLE magazine.Clara had been studying ASL for the past year to help with her dyslexia and knew she'd be able to spell on the man's palm by finger. So she unbuckled her seat belt, walked toward the front of the plane, and knelt by the aisle seat of Tim Cook, then 64. Gently taking his hand, she signed, “How are you? Are you OK?” Cook asked for some water. When it arrived, Clara returned to her seat. She came by again a bit later because he wanted to know the time. On her third visit, she stopped and stayed for a while.“He didn't need anything. He was lonely and wanted to talk,” Clara said. So for the next hour, that was what they did. She talked about her family and her plans for the future (she wants to be a politician). Cook told Clara how he had graduallybecome blind over time and shared stories of his days as a traveling salesman. Even thou gh he couldn't see her, she “looked attentively at his face with such kindness”,a passenger reported.“Clara was amazing,” a flight attendant told Alaska Airlines in a blog interview. “You could tell Cook was very excited to have someone he could speak to, and she was such a warm­hearted girl.” Cook's reaction: “Best trip I've ever had.”Looking for ways to offer help?Start with this random act of kindness that can change someone's life right now.4.The flight attendant asked an urgent question because________.A.the passenger was traveling aloneB.the plane was in a dangerous situationC.the passenger asked for something urgentlyD.none of the flight attendants could communicate with the passenger5.Why did Clara talk about her plans for the future?A.Because the flight attendant asked her to do so.B.Because she needed topics to go on talking with Cook.C.Because Cook expected to understand teenagers better.D.Because she wanted to show her ambition for the future.6.Which of the following words can best describe Clara?A.Kind and caring.B.Warm­hearted and cautious.C.Generous and amazing.D.Ambitious and attentive.7.The passage is mainly written to________.A.tell a touching story of an amazing girlB.appeal to readers to lend a hand kindly and randomlyC.stress the great importance of American Sign LanguageD.show how considerate the flight attendant was to help CookⅡ.完形填空Dropping into desperation completely, Jack wandered on the street, knowing he came to the end of life.

课时分层作业(十三) Section Ⅰ(建议用时:30分钟)[高考题型练习提能力]Ⅰ.阅读理解ASeeing a volcano erupt is a wonderful experience,and you can really feel the beat by climbing to the summit (山顶) of Pacaya for a close­up view.There are guided tours every day up this highly active volcano from Antigua,giving travellers a chance to see Mother Nature at her most powerful.Pacaya is an easy drive from Antigua,a beautiful city with many colorful houses along its old streets that are turned into artworks during its Holy Week festival.No matter when you come to Antigua,you won't miss the Pacaya­tour companies.But climbing Pacaya is no easy job:it is 2,560 metres high,and reaching the summit takes two to three hours of seemingly one­step­forward and two­step­back movements.As you climb,you hear the dull sounds of eruptions high above.Steaming hot remains from recent eruptions begin to line the path as you near the active summit —the McKenney Cone(火山锥).Just as though you were going to walk over to the edge of the cone,the road turns to the left and up to the relative safety of the old,inactive summit.Many tours are timed so that you arrive at the cone of the volcano in plenty of time for sunset and the full contrast between the erupting red lava and the darkening sky.On a good day the view from the summit is extremely exciting.The active mouth boils,sending red lava over its sides,and once in a while shoots hot streams up to 100 metres into the air.There is a strong bad smell in the air even if you take care to be upwind of the cone.As evening turns deeper into the night,the burning lava quietly falls down to a side of the volcano.For you,too,it is time to get down.【语篇解读】本文主要介绍帕卡亚火山。

the plants pump through the air is a mixture of chemicals known as volatile organic compounds, VOCs for short.
Scientists have found that all kinds of plants give out VOCs when being attacked. It’s a plant’s way of crying out. But is anyone listening? Apparently. Because we can watch the neighbours react.

Some plants pump out smelly chemicals to keep insects away. But others do double duty. They pump out perfumes designed to attract different insects who are natural enemies to the attackers. Once they arrive, the tables are turned. The attacker who was lunching now becomes lunch.
