课时作业(五) [模块2 Unit 5 Rhythm](限时:35分钟)Ⅰ.阅读理解AWilliam Butler Yeats,a most famous Irish writer,was born in Dublin on June 13,1865.His childhood lacked the harmony (和睦) that was typical of a happy ter,Yeats shocked his family by saying that he remembered “little of childhood but its pain”.In fact,he inherited (继承) excellent taste in art from his family—both his father and his brother were painters.But he finally settled on literature,particularly drama (戏剧) and poetry.Yeats had strong faith in coming of new artistic movements.He set himself the fresh task in founding an Irish national theatre in the late 1890s.His early theatrical experiments,however,were not received favourably at the beginning.He didn't lose heart,and finally enjoyed success in his poetical drama.Compared with his dramatic works,Yeats' poems attract much admiring notice.The subject matter includes love,nature,history,time and aging.Though Yeats generally relied on very traditional forms,he brought modern sensibility to them.As his literary life progressed,his poetry grew finer and richer,which led him to worldwide recognition.He had not enjoyed a major public lift since winning the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1923.Yet,he continued writing almost to the end of his life.Had Yeats stopped writing at age 40,he would probably now be valued as a minor poet,for there is no other example in literary history of a poet who produces his greatest works between the ages of 50 and 75.After Yeats' death in 1939,W.H.Auden wrote,among others,the following lines:Earth,receive an honoured guest:William Yeats is laid to rest.Let the Irish vessel(船) lie.Emptied of its poetry.1.Which of the following can describe Yeats' family?A.It filled Yeats' childhood with laughter.B.It was shocked by Yeats' choice.C.It was a typically wealthy family.D.It had an artistic atmosphere.2.According to the passage,what do we know about Yeats'life?A.Yeats founded the first Irish theatre.B.Yeats stuck to modern forms in his poetry.C.Yeats began to produce his best works from the 1910s.D.Yeats was not favoured by the public until the 1923 Nobel Prize for Literature. 3.What kind of feeling is expressed in W.H.Auden's lines?A.Envy. B.Sympathy.C.Emptiness. D.Admiration.4.What is the passage mainly about?A.Yeats' literary achievements.B.Yeats' historical influence.C.Yeats' artistic ambition.D.Yeats' national honour.BWASHINGTON—School lunches have been called many things, but a group of retired military officers are giving them a new label: national security threat.That's not a reference to the mystery meat served up in the cafeteria line either. The retired officers are saying that school lunches have helped make the nation's young people so fat that fewer of them can meet the military's physical fitness standards, and recruitment will be difficult.A new report being released on Tuesday says more than 9 million young adults, or27 per cent of all Americans ages 17 to 24, are too overweight to join the military. Now, the officers are advocating for passage of a wide­ranging nutrition bill that aims to make the nation's school lunches healthier.The military group acknowledges that other things keep young adults out of the armed services, such as a criminal record or the lack of a high school diploma. But weight problems that have worsened over the past 15 years are now the leading medical reason that recruits are rejected.Although all branches of the military now meet or exceed recruitment goals, retired Navy Rear Admiral James Barnett Jr., a member of the officers, says the obesity trend could affect that.“When over a quarter of young adults are too fat to fight, we need to take notice,” Barnett said. He noted that national security in the year 2030 is “absolutely dependent” on reversing child obesity rates.This isn't the first time the military has gotten involved in the debate over school lunches. During World War Ⅱ, military leaders had the opposite problem, reporting that many recruits were rejected because of stunted growth and inadequate nutrition. After the war, military leaders pushed Congress to establish the national school lunch programme so children would grow up healthier.Today, the group is urging Congress to eliminate junk food and high­calorie beverages from schools, put more money into the school lunch programme and develop new strategies that help children develop healthier habits.5. What is the main problem of the lunches in schools according to the military officers?A.The meat in the lunches is mysterious.B.The lunches are too expensive.C.The lunches contain too much fat.D.There is inadequate nutrition in the lunches.6. The underlined word “obesity” in Paragraph 5 means “________”.A.slow in mindB.state of being fatC.quick in movementD.lack of confidence7. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A.The lunches in American schools are not very healthy.B.During World War Ⅱ, many people could not join the army because of overweight. C.According to the author, overweight was the key reason why many recruits were rejected.D.By now, Congress hasn't eliminated junk food and high­calorie beverages from schools.8. Which of the following is the best title for the article?A.School lunches: a national security threat?B.National security in danger?C.Retired officers tired of school lunchesD.The recruitment of 2030Ⅱ.完形填空I have a love­hate relationship with 8 o'clock classes.I like to get__9__ that early;most students don't.They usually come in late and many__10__ bright ones look sleepy at that hour.One day I was really angry at it.I was__11__ about the topic (history of the expansion of Christianity),but no one else seemed to be.I wrote things on the__12__.I moved around the room.I told stories.I tried humour.It was useless.The__13__ looks didn't seem to change.I was__14__.I lost track of time.I was about to turn to a major topic when I glanced__15__ at my watch.I was already two minutes past the__16__ end of class.So I just ended suddenly and the students__17__ their books and headed out the door on their way to another class or to their__18__.As I stood there watching them __19__,I picked up my own books,notes and papers.I picked them up and stepped out into the__20__.I was tired and a bit discouraged.I had put everything I knew how to do into that classroom performance and it had seemed for__21__.Then,as I started across the hall to my nearby office,a student coming out the__22__ door of the classroom caught up with me.Randy sits about halfway back in the classroom.I__23__ he wanted to ask why I didn't have those test papers graded yet or maybe he wanted__24__ to hand in a late paper or…It was none of that.With his eyes sparkling,Randy said,“This is the__25__ time I've not wanted a college class to__26__.”The tiredness lifted.I had done__27__ than I had thought.I don't know if Randy will__28__ understand how much he did for me that day.9.A.dressed B.changedC.started D.caught10.A.otherwise B.thereforeC.anyway D.however11.A.curious B.patientC.fluent D.excited12.A.notebook B.blackboardC.wall D.ground13.A.bright B.blankC.pale D.red14.A.embarrassed B.convincedC.disturbed D.frustrated15.A.down B.upC.inside D.outside16.rmed B.permittedC.scheduled D.changed17.A.picked up B.turned toC.brought out D.laid down18.A.breakfast B.lunchC.supper D.dinner19.A.singing B.practisingC.performing D.leaving20.A.office B.hallC.classroom D.church21.A.something B.anythingC.everything D.nothing22.A.secret B.frontC.narrow D.back23.A.predicted B.thoughtC.declared D.meant24.A.decision B.conclusionC.permission D.expression25.A.first B.secondC.third D.last26.A.pause B.advanceC.end D.continue27.A.more B.betterC.less D.worse28.A.also B.alreadyC.even D.everⅢ.语法填空William: Dr Stone, how did you become an expert __29__smell?Dr Stone: Well, I __30__ (intend) in the first place.

These cards are used for many things.Thus, chips have been the main platform for cards that hold a secure digital identity.Some examples of these cards are:Cards that hold money.Cards that provide safe access to a network.Cards that allow setting stop boxes on televisions to remain safe from privacy.Optical Memory Cards look like cards with a piece of CD on the top.Optical Memory Cards can store up to 4MB of data. But once written, the data can not be changed or removed. Thus, this type of card is good for keeping records, such as medical files, driving records or travel histories.Today, these have no processors in them(although this is coming in the near future).While the cards are almost as cheap as chip cards, the card readers are expensive.Title:21.

课时作业(七)题型组合练——练速度(阅读理解+阅读七选五+语法填空)限时:35分钟Ⅰ.阅读理解AAll over the world mothers and fathers teach their children manners.Other children may have manners that are not like yours.There are all kinds of manners.Many years ago,children who had good manners were seen and not heard.They kept quite quiet if grown-ups were talking.Today,well-mannered children have more freedom.Sometimes good manners in one place are bad manners in other places.Suppose you are a visitor in the land of Mongolia.Some friends ask you to eat with them.What kind of manners do they want you to have?They want you to give a loud “burp(打嗝)” after you finish eating.Burping would show that you like your food.In some countries,if you give a loud burp,you are told to say “Excuse me,please.”In many places people like to eat together.But in some parts of Polynesia,it is bad manners to be seen eating at all.People show good manners by turning their backs on others while they eat.What are manners like in an East African town? The people try not to see you.They are being polite.You may see a friend.He may not see you at all.If you are polite,you will sit down beside him.You will wait until he finishes what he is doing.Then he will talk to you.Suppose you visit a friend in Arabia.You should walk behind the other tents until you come to his tent.If you pass in front of the other tents,you will be asked into each one.The people will ask you to eat with them.And it is bad manners if you say no.Manners are different all over the world.But it is good to know that all manners begin in the same way.People need ways to show that they want to be friends.[语篇解读]本文主要介绍了世界上一些地方的礼仪。

B.Clive.C.Robert Todd Lincoln. D.McKinley.35.What would be the best title for the passage?A.The Fatal WitnessB.Different Fates for Different PeopleC.The Shootings of Three PresidentsD.The Sad Life of Robert Todd LincolnBFinally, there is the evolution of Yao's mind. He has become a wise man who has devoted time and money into life after the NBA.Yao said he did not only see his investment in the current CBA system in purely financial terms, but also as a way to support the development of basketball in China and return the favour to Shanghai for looking after him in his early days.A few days before our most recent interview, Yao was asked to attend an award ceremony for top athletes in China. He realised his superstar friends and fellow athletes were often forced to take low-paying jobs because they had little formal education.As boss of the Shanghai Sharks, Yao has invited both teachers and mentors to help his players better manage their financial futures.Another of Yao's problems has been balancing the knowledge he has gained in the NBA with the traditions of home.As head of the Sharks he has to consider what's best for his team, even if it means hurting some of his closest friends. Like his first coach, Li Qiuping, who was in hospital when Yao told him he was going to have to replace him with an American coach.Navigating traditional Chinese society, he said, can be tricky at times. He sometimes wistfully thinks back to his early days, when he just played basketball. Even so, he never shies away from the challenge.When I think about these aspects of Yao's life, I admire him as an example of someone who is down-to-earth and has not let fame go to his head.As Yao will enter a new phase in his life, his 30s, fatherhood, returning to the NBA, and the next step in his career as manager, he shows the courage to make a difference in the world.Yang Lan One On One is shown on Shanghai Dragon TV, Sat.23:10 PM.36.Which of the following statements is true?A.Yao invests in CBA just because he wants to make money.B. Yao pays his fellow athletes little money.C. Yao has become a father of a boy.D.Sometimes Yao has to hurt some friends for the profit of the whole team.37.What is the meaning of the underlined word “tricky”?A.helpful B.difficult C.easy D. special38.Yang Lan believes that Yao is a person who________.A.is depressed B. runs after fameC. is dependable D.loves the earth39.This article may be extracted from________.A.a TV program B.a novelC.a memoir D.an essay答案课时作业(五)Ⅰ.1.B考查冠词。

These cards are used for many things.Thus, chips have been the main platform for cards that hold a secure digital identity.Some examples of these cards are:Cards that hold money.Cards that provide safe access to a network.Cards that allow setting stop boxes on televisions to remain safe from privacy.Optical Memory Cards look like cards with a piece of CD on the top.Optical Memory Cards can store up to 4MB of data. But once written, the data can not be changed or removed. Thus, this type of card is good for keeping records, such as medical files, driving records or travel histories.Today, these have no processors in them(although this is coming in the near future).While the cards are almost as cheap as chip cards, the card readers are expensive.答案1.D2.A3.B4.C5.C6.B7.A8.C9.D 10.A 11.C 12.B 13.D 14.B 15.D 16.D 17.A 18.D 19.B 20.A21.Smart 22.Advantages 23. security 24.Memory 25.doctor26.travelers 27.cost 28.Unchangeable 29.readers 30.memory。

Ⅰ.阅读理解(建议用时15′)A[2016·石家庄质检]Most people think about donating blood. However, very few actually do it. Even the most consistent W1ones donate an average of just three to four times during their lifetime. Now the officials in Sweden are trying to change the trend w ith the help of P1modern-day technology.The encouragement W2to donate again begins shortly after the donor leaves the clinic when he/she receives a “thank you” text. Though that certainly helps th em feel appreciated, w hat is e v en more pleasing is the text they recei v e each time their blood is used to help someone in need.S Karolina Wiberg, manager of the Stockholm blood service, believes this small gesture not only results in repeat donors, but helps bring in new ones. The_program that was started in Stockholm has received such positi v e W3feedback that it is now being rolled out across the country.However, Swedish officials are not stopping there. They are also encouraging local clinics to publish the exact levels of the different blood groups they have at any given time on their websites. This allows potential donors to realize that their blood can make a difference P2in saving someone's life.While all these outreach programs are great, busy citizens, even the ones with the best intentions have to be occasionally reminded. In order to jog their memories, officials ask people for authorization to send them text, Facebook, and e-mail reminders. Though that may sound disturbing, the citizens do not seem to mind, given that the messages are light-hearted and fun-things lik e “We won't give up until you bleed.”Though Sweden is currently the only country using modern technology to urge W4more donations, don't be surprised if more join in, especially W5if the Nordic (北欧) country's blood banks start to overflow!本文讲述的是瑞典利用信息回馈的方式,向献血者反应用血情况,以此来激发人们献血的热情。

1.Why is another text sent to blood donors after a “thank you” one?A.To ask them for authorization.B.To inform them their blood is used.C.To remind them to donate blood immediately.D.To tell them the levels of blood groups.答案:B细节理解题。

根据第二段“... what is even more pleasing is the text they receive each time their blood is used to help someone in need.”可知。

2.What does “the program” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A.Publishing information about blood donation.B.Giving Facebook reminders to citizens.C.Sending text messages to blood donors.D.Providing people with blood service.答案:C推理判断题。

the program应指代上文中所提到的内容,根据第二段的描述以及第三段首句,可知答案。

3.What do people think of blood donation reminders?A.Disturbing. B.Memorable.C.Authentic. D.Acceptable.答案:D细节理解题。

根据第五段最后一句“Though that may sound disturbing, the citizens do not seem to mind.”可知。

4.What can we infer from the last paragraph?A.Sweden will stop urging blood donation.B.Sweden has benefited little from its program.C.More countries may follow Sweden's example.D.Nordic blood banks are in great need of blood.答案:C推理判断题。

根据最后一段的理解“尽管瑞典是当前唯一使用这样技术的国家,但有更多的国家加入,也不必惊讶”,可推断答案。

W重点词汇1.consistent adj. 一致的 2.encouragement n.鼓励3.positive adj. 积极的;正面的 4.urge v t. 催促,力劝5.especially ad v. 特别地,尤其P重点短语1.with the help of 在……帮助下2.make a difference 有影响,有意义S句式仿写原文:What is even more pleasing is the text they receive each time their blood is used to help someone in need.(主语从句)译文:令人更愉快的是每次他们的血液被用来救助困境中的人时他们收到的信息。

仿写:I think what_impresses_me_about_his_painting is the colours he uses.我认为关于他的绘画使我印象深刻的是他使用的色彩。

B[2016·荆州一中质检] Generally speaking, government regulations W1normally ban anything from smoking in public places to parking in certain zones. But officials in the Brazilian town of Biritiba Mirim, 70 km (45 miles) east of Sao Paulo, have_gone_far_beyond_that. They plan to prohibit W2residents from dying early because the local cemetery (墓地) has reached full capacity.There's no more room to bury the dead, they can't be cremated (火化) and laws forbid a new cemetery. So the mayor has proposed a strange solution W3:outlaw death. Mayor Roberto Pereira says the bill is meant as a protest against federal regulations that prohibit new or expanded cemeteries in preservation areas. “They have not taken local demands into consideration P1”,he claims.A 2003 decree (法令) by Brazil's National Environment Council forbids burial grounds in protected areas. Mr Pereira wants to build a new cemetery, but the project has been stopped because 98% of Biritiba Mirim is considered as a preservation area.Biritiba Mirim, a town of 28,000 inhabitants, not only wants to prohibit residents from passing away. The bill also calls on people to take care of their health in order to avoid death. “I ha v en't got a job, nor am I healthy.S And now they say I can't die. That's ridiculous W4,”Amarido do Prado, an unemployed resident said.The city council is expected to vote on the regulation next week. “Of course the bill is laughable, illegal W5,and will never be approved,” said Gilson Soares de Campos, an assistant of the mayor. “But can you think of a better resolution to persuade the government to P2change the environmental decree that is prohibiting us from building a new cemetery?” The bill states that “offenders will be held responsible for their acts.” However, it does not say what the punishment will be.由于当地墓地空间不足,巴西一城镇计划一条法案:禁止人们死亡。
