The issue here is not the accuracy of Tolstoy’s description--it seems not that far off from historical accounts but his choice of facts:other things that could be said of the man are not said. We are meant to understand the difference of a warring commander in the body of a fat little Frenchman. Tolstoy’s Napoleon could be any man wandering in the streets and putting a little of powdered tobacco up his nose —and that is the point.It is a way the novelist uses to show the moral nature of a character. And it turns out that, as Tolstoy has it, Napoleon is a crazy man. In a scene in Book Three of War and Peace, the wars having reached the critical year of 1812,Napoleon receives a representative from the Tsar(沙皇), who has come with peace terms. Napoleon is very angry:doesn’t he have more army? He, not the Tsar, is the one to make the terms. He will destroy all of Europe if his army is stopped. “That is what you will have gained by engaging me in the war!〞 he shouts. And then, Tolstoy writes, Napoleon “walked silently several times up and down the room, his fat shoulders moving quickly.’’Still later, after reviewing his army amid cheering crowds, Napoleon invites the shaken Russian to dinner. “He raised his hand to the Russian’s…face,〞Tolstoy writes, and “taking him by the ear pulled it gently….〞 To have one’s ear pulled by the Emperor was considered the greatest honor and mark of favor at the French court. “Well, well, why don’t you say anything?’’ said he, as if it was ridiculous in his presence to respect any one but himself, Napoleon.Tolstoy did his research, but the composition is his own.51. Tolstoy’s description of Napoleon in War and Peace is _________.A. far from the historical factsB. based on the Russian historyC. based on his selection of factsD. not related to historical details52. Napoleon was angry when receiving the Russian representative because _________.A. he thought he should be the one to make the peace termsB. the Tsar's peace terms were hard to acceptC. the Russians stopped his military movementD. he didn’t have any more army to fight with53. What did Napoleon expect the Russian representative to do?A. To walk out of the room in anger.B. To show agreement with him.C. To say something about the Tsar.D. To express his admiration.54. Tolstoy intended to present Napoleon as a man who is _________.A. ill-mannered in dealing with foreign guestsB. fond of showing off his iron willC. determined in destroying all of EuropeD. crazy for power and respect55. What does the last sentence of the passage imply?A. A writer doesn’t have to be faithful to his findings.B. A writer may write about a hero in his own way.C. A writer may not be responsible for what he writes.D. A writer has hardly any freedom to show his feelings.单项选择、What 从句1. ______ surprises us most is that she doesn’t even know _____ the difference between the two opinions lies.A It , whichB What , whatC What , whereD That , where2.

高三下学期英语限时练4

新沂三中2023届高三英语限时练(4)限时:40分钟一、阅读理解AAllowing women to give birth in hospital with their pet dog by their side could make them less anxious, one of the first women to use a “birth dog” has said.Charlotte Beard, 24, who suffers from non-epileptic seizures, was supported through her 50-hour labour by her aid pet Flump, who is trained to detect seizures before they happen.Flump was prepared for the birth by being played audio tracks of babies crying at home and being introduced to staff at the maternity ward (产房) in Poole hospital. Beard joked. “He was visiting the maternity hospital on a very regular basis, getting to know staff, getting to know the different rooms and the setups.”It is a legal requirement that assistance dogs are allowed into hospitals, but Beard said a lot of hospitals were not aware of this.“It would have caused high levels of anxiety if Flump was not there,” she said. “I would have certainly been more concerned about my safety.”“I am not suggesting that if I were to have a seizure, staff would not have been able to look after me. But no staff member can detect beforehand whether you are going to have a seizure or not. That is something that Flump can do that nobody else can, and it gives them such valuable time to make sure that I am safe and have the right support in place before it happens. Prevention is always much better than treatment.”Beard got Flump at 10 weeks and has trained him since then. “From a human standpoint I cannot help but think how lovely it is that Flump was there. He was one of the first to see Alfie,” Beard said. “Being present there from the birth and meeting Alfie within moments of him being born, whether it has increased the bond or not, it was such a lovely experience for everyone. Flump was absolutely besotted (痴恋) with Alfie from the moment he first saw him.”1. Why did Beard have an assistance pet present during birth?A. To cure her disease.B. To monitor the doctors.C. To ease her anxiety.D. To keep the door.2. What was the assistance dog trained to do before doing the job?A. Understand human voices.B. Get familiarized with the hospital.C. Play music for babies.D. Learn about medical devices.3. What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 6 refer to?A. Detecting the disease.B. Medical treatment.C. Looking after the patient.D. A seizure.4. What does Beard think of future bond between the dog and her son?A. It will be close.B. It will be tense.C. It needs improving.D. It is hard to say.BEven tree-planting can increase health risks to local human populations if it focuses too narrowly on a small number of species, as is often the case in commercial forests. Outbreaks of infectious diseases are more likely in areas of monoculture plantations, according to a new study.The researchers of the study said this was because diseases are filtered (过滤) and blocked by a range of predators (食肉动物) and habitats in a healthy, biodiverse forest. When this is replaced by a palm oil plantation or soy fields, the specialist species die off, leaving generalists such as rats and mosquitoes to thrive (繁殖) and spread pathogens across human and non-human habitats. The net result is a loss of natural disease regulation.The researchers examined the correlation between trends for forest cover, plantations, population and disease around the globe using statistics from international institutions such as the World Health Organization and the Food and Agricultural Organization. Over the period of study from 1990 to 2016, this covered 3,884 outbreaks of 116 diseases that crossed the species barrier and 1,996 outbreaks of 69 vector-borne infectious diseases, mostly carried by mosquitoes, ticks or flies.The new study adds to a growing body of evidence that viruses are more likely to transfer to humans or animals if they live in or near human-disturbed ecosystems. This is shaped by trade patterns and consumer behaviour. A quarter of global forest loss is driven by the production of commodities such as beef, soy, palm oil and wood fibre.Morand, lead-author of the study, said his study showed that disease risks need to be added to risk-benefit analysis of new projects. “We should take the costs of public health into account when considering new plantations. The risks are first to local people, but thenworldwide because we have seen with Covid how quickly diseases can spread.”Morand is now working on a more detailed study that will use satellite analysis of forest cover to examine links with disease. With more information, he believes it may be possible to predict future outbreaks and to work with local communities to build ecologically diverse and economically productive landscapes that reduce the risks.5. Why are outbreaks of infectious diseases more likely in areas of monoculture plantations?A. The specialist species are wiped out by their predators.B. Biodiversity decline destroys natural disease regulation.C. Local human populations have no knowledge of health risks.D. Commercial forests provide food for disease-carrying insects.6. How did the researchers get their findings?A. By conducting data analysis.B. By referring to another study.C. By making field investigation.D. By consulting authoritative agencies.7. What does Morand intend to do by his words in paragraph 5?A. Criticize policy-makers.B. Offer a solution to Covid.C. Make a suggestion.D. Support evidence for her findings.8. What does the last paragraph talk about concerning Morand-led study?A. Its theoretical basis.B. Its appeal to the public.C. Expectations for future studies.D. Researchers with new perspectives.第二节(共5小题;每小题分,满分分)If you’re going travelling after university or as a career break, an extended period of time of unemployment can leave a gaping hole in your CV. ____1____ As long as you plan your trip carefully and think about what you can do, travelling can actually boost your CV and career.Recharge you batteriesIf you’ve just spent three or four years at university, or working without a break, then you’ll need to recharge your batteries.

But she only began researching the harmful side effects of radiation treatment after her father discussed his experience with ineffective cancer treatments in his work. Since Butson had also recently lost a relative to breast cancer, she felt inspired to conduct her own research on the subject. She tried to begin her medical research by consulting scientific journals, but she found their academic terms almost impossible to understand.She then turned to the internet to find videos that taught how to read scientific journals. As she went deeper in her research, she stumbled upon a key bit of information: copper (铜) has been shown to be effective at protecting skin from radiation. An idea hit this Australian teen as she was viewing a film on medieval wars in her 10th grade history class. When she saw the scaled (鳞片) patterns of the mail (盔甲), she was inspired to create a wearable protective tool out of copper. She then headed back online and watched videos on how to put together tiny scales. She made her own flexible scale-mail which she now calls SMART: Scale Mail for Radiation Therapy.When her invention was tested in a laboratory setting, it reduced surface exposure to unnecessary radiation by 75%. And now Butson is working on getting her SMART into clinical settings for use.4. Why did Macinley Butson start her research?A. To assist her father with his work.B. To save her relative from cancer.C. To publish some articles in journals.D. To find effective ways to treat cancer.5. What does the underlined phrase “stumbled upon” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A.

Soldiers’ defensive clothes.7. Which of the following best describes Macinley Buston?A. Stubborn.B. Creative.C. Selfless.D. Considerate.CYoga is an ancient physical and spiritual practice originating in India. The word “yoga” comes from Sanskrit (梵文) and means to join or to unite, symbolizing the union of body and mind. Today it is practiced in various forms around the world and continues to grow in popularity. Recognizing its universal appeal, the United Nations declared 21 June as the International Day of Yoga in 2014 to raise awareness worldwide of the many benefits of practicing yoga.Yoga is an invaluable gift from an ancient tradition. It’s not just about exercise but a way to discover the sense of oneness with yourself, nature and the world. There is no written record of who invented yoga. Yoga practitioners (从业者) passed down the principles to their students. The earliest written record of yoga is generally believed to have been written by Patanjali, an Indian master who lived somewhere between 2,000 and 2,500 years ago.Various yoga types give you multiple choices. Hatha yoga is the most widely practiced type and is excellent for beginners. It is gentle with slow and smooth movements. Kundalini yoga combines a singing session besides body and mental control. Bikram yoga is practiced in a heated room. It is to loosen muscles and to sweat to clean the body and remove symptoms of disease and pain. Ashtanga yoga is taught as a difficult workout where you move quickly from one gesture to another to build strength and patience.In recent years, the World Health Organization has urged countries to help their citizens reduce physical inactivity, which is among the top ten leading causes of death worldwide, and a key risk factor for non-communicable diseases, such as cancer and diabetes. Yoga is a proper exercise. It is known for its ability to ease stress and anxiety. It may also help reduce several risk factors for heart diseases and promote a better sleep.8. Why did the United Nations set the International Day of Yoga?A. To promote the research into Sanskrit.B. To help people know more about India.C. To popularize Yoga practice worldwide.D. To give a declaration on cultural diversity.9. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?A. The principles of yoga.B. The history of yoga.C. The benefits of yoga.D. An Indian yoga master.10. What will you choose if you’re looking for a challenging exercise?A. Hatha yoga.B. Kundalini yoga.C. Bikram yoga.D. Ashtanga yoga.11. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. Physical inactivity causes deadly diseases.B. Yoga can help prevent communicable diseases.C. Little or no exercise puts people’s health at risk.D. Yoga can be a cure for many kinds of diseases.DAround 45% of plastic waste is recycled annually in the UK and is on the increase. However, one of the problems with present plastic recycling methods is that you end up with a lower-quality plastic with worse properties (特性) than the original. This means that plastic drink bottles cannot simply be recycled into new drink bottles continuously, but instead are used for other lower-grade products like park benches.Now, British scientists have developed a new method of chemical recycling. They use lower temperatures and more environmentally-friendly starting chemicals than previous methods to turn plastics back into their constituent chemical molecules (分子). In this way, they can be used to make new plastics of the same quality as the original.“Most plastic is now recycled using mechanical methods, where they are transformed into liquids before being made into something new,” said a professor named Matthew Jones. “The problem is, melting plastic changes its properties and reduces the quality. Our method of chemical recycling overcomes this problem. Then plastics can be used all over again without losing any properties.”The researchers are recycling some kinds of plastics, including plant-based PLA, a plastic used for food packaging and PET, which is used for drink bottles. So far, the technology has only been demonstrated on a small range. However, scientists are now working to produce larger quantities of starting chemicals.“There is no single solution to the problem of plastic waste—the approach has to be a combination of reducing, reusing and recycling. Our method of chemical recycling could allow carbon to be recycled endlessly rather than digging more up from the ground in the form of fossil fuels, or letting it into the atmosphere as a greenhouse gas,” said Dr. Paul McKeown from the University of Bath.12. What is the problem with the present plastic recycling?A. The quality of recycled plastics declines.B. Plastic drink bottles cannot be recycled.C. The amount of plastic waste is increasing.D. Recycled lower-grade products sell badly.13. How do scientists recycle plastic waste with the new method?A. By transforming it into fuels.B. By heating it into liquid state.C. By keeping its original properties.D. By changing its molecule structure.14. What can we learn from what Dr. Paul McKeown said?A. Fossil fuels are endless resources.B. The plastic waste problem has no solution.C. Recycled carbon leads to greenhouse gases.D. The chemical recycling is environment-friendly.15. In which part of the website can we find the text?A. Business.B. Tech & Science.C. Lifestyle.D. Arts & Culture.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。

It all started when Max put the dirty clothes in the washing machine. After some time, Kevin heard some strange sounds from the washing machine. He went to check and found that Max had put his best pair of shoes into the machine, along with the clothes.One day, Kevin was looking through the newspaper when some interesting news caught his attention. He read it aloud: “The world famous philatelist (集邮家) Dick Brown’s stamps were stolen last week from his house. Several other stamp robberies also have taken place, and police suspect that all the robberies are linked.”This piece of news concluded by warning all stamp collectors to keep their stamps safe.Paragraph 1:Kevin had a nice stamp collection, and it was with his friend Alan.

However, when Kevin checked it, he found that it was not his album.Paragraph 2:On the first blank page of the album, Kevin found there were two small words: Dick Brown. This was a big surprise for both of them. Actually, Max had gone to another house by mistake. The door of the house was unlocked and nobody was there. Max went into the room and found an album that he didn’t notice was not Kevin’s. Kevin called the police and told them about it. Kevin and Max got a reward for helping to solve the stamp robberies. Kevin soon forgot the horrible things Max had done.。
