课时作业(五) Module 2 Section ⅠIntroduction & Readingand Vocabulary—ComprehendingⅠ.阅读理解ASnow leopards (豹) are so hard to photograph that scientists aren't even sure how many of these endangered animals still live in the wild.The Snow Leopard Conservancy(SLC) set up 20 cameras in Russia in 2010 to learn more about the big cats. After a full six months, they had exactly zero picture! That's when the organization understood they needed help. And the only people who could help them in finding the leopards were the very people from whom they wanted to protect the animals—local hunters (猎人)．Hunting snow leopards is against the law in Russia, but in the terrible climate of Siberia, the few people living there had to turn to poaching (盗猎) to feed their families.In 2013, Russian naturalist Sergei Spitsyn approached Mergen Markov, a local hunter, and told him his project. Markov agreed to set up the camera where he knew he would find leopards, and it worked.Markov, once a poacher, works full time for the conservationists now and has 10 cameras monitoring leopards. “I visit each camera once a month. I have known this whole region since I was a child，” he said proudly.The World Wildlife Fund (WWF) began working with other local villagers in 2015. The village would be paid 40,000 rubles at the end of the year if the image of a snow leopard is caught. WWF also rents horses from the villagers so that they do not need to make money by poaching anymore. “Today there are far fewer leopard poachers but leopards still get caught in traps set for other animals, so I have to stay watchful，” said Markov.Changing guns for cameras has made a big difference in the lives of these former poachers, the village, and the Russian snow leopards. The number of snow leopards has been rising and their population is expected to recover to normal levels within 10 years.1．Why was no picture of snow leopards taken in six months?A．SLC's 20 cameras failed to work properly.B．The number of snow leopards in the wild was too small.C．The local poachers destroyed these cameras on purpose.D．The researchers knew little about the animal's living habits.2．What did Sergei Spitsyn persuade Markov to do?A．Find the poachers.B．Repair cameras in the forest.C．Catch more leopards.D．Work for SLC.3．Why did the WWF begin working with local villagers?A．To get some pictures of snow leopards.B．To help villagers make a living.C．To prevent villagers from hunting animals.D．To rent their horses at a low price.4．How can we describe the WWF's cooperation with the villagers?A．Practice makes perfect.B．Curiosity kills the cat.C．Kill two birds with one stone.D．Old habits die hard.BA young Jewish girl begins a diary just as World War II is about to break out in Europe. She records the details of her daily life, but more than that. Eventually, the diary comes to a heartbreaking end with the girl shot to death by the Nazis. However, it's not the story of Anne Frank. This is Renia's Diary, a journal that was hidden for years in a safe box. Now it's coming to light with the help of Renia's sister and niece.For a long time, Elizabeth didn't even know that her older sister Renia had kept a diary as a teenager in Poland. Then suddenly one day in the 50s, Elizabeth got the diary and started to read it. She was totally stunned and couldn't get very far. “It was too painful to read it，” Elizabeth recalls. “I just put it in the basement and didn't think abou t it.”Alexandra, Elizabeth's daughter, grew up knowing about the locked diary. As Alexandra got older, she was more interested in it. “If I could read this diary, maybe I'll explore some things from the past，” she thought.She got the diary from its hiding place. When she read it, Alexandra was shocked. “It's the description of a wonderful girl who showed great courage in terrible times. My aunt's world comes to life as the diary shifts between a teenage girl's daily life and the war.”Elizabeth and her daughter Alexandra are excited that the diary will be published. “It is a story that needs to be heard now more than ever. We should never repeat the same types of racism(种族主义) and hate that lead to violence，” Alexandra says.5．What does the underlined word “stunned” mean in Paragraph 2?A．Embarrassed. B．Bored.C．Excited. D．Shocked.6．Why was Alexandra so interested in Renia's Diary?A．She was curious about her aunt's experience.B．She wanted to comfort her mother.C．She planned to publish her aunt's dairy.D．She decided to prove how strong Renia was.7．What's the best title of the passage?A．A girl fighting against the racism and hateB．Renia's Diary is to come to lightC．Discovering the history of a Jewish familyD．A Jewish family in World War IIⅡ.七选五根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

He planned to construct a house in 24 hours by applying 3D printing techniques, but he admitted there would be difficulties in meeting his goal.“For example, if you run out of ink while printing on paper, you will throw that paper away. But you cannot throw half－completed buildings away if your material gets stuck.” he said. Although the printed house is not available to visit, there is a chance for people in Shanghai to see items printed in 3D.The Belgium－based company Materialise NV is currently holding a 3D printing exhibition in Shanghai that started in late 2012 and will continue until the middle of this year. The company is eager to show Asia what is possible with 3D printing.“All the pieces shown here are what cannot be made through traditional techniques. A good example of this customization is hearing aids. More than 10 million people already use 3D printed hearing aids, all made according to the size of their ear，” said Wim Michiels, executive vice－president at Materialise NV.“You can produce anything whenever and wherever you like. You don't need to set up production lines for pieces that only need a limited amount of product. Setting up a production line is a lot of work, takes a long time and is very expensive for a limited number of pieces.” said Michiels.Kim Francois, managing director of Materialise China, said their European and American clients have already made the next step toward additive manufacturing with small－series production such as hearing aids.1．What is mainly talked about in the text?A．The development of 3D printing.B．A 3D printing show in Shanghai.C．Varieties of items printed in 3D.D．The company Materialise NV.解析：主旨大意题。

The weather is usually good and there aren't too many tourists in October.We stayed in s small hotel in the West End. It was convenient as we did most of our sightseeing on foot. Taxis were too expensive. We couldn't understand the bus routes. My wife didn't like taking the underground. She said it made her sick.We went to visit the places which all the tourists see. We saw Buckingham Palace and the National Gallery. We went shopping in Oxford Street and spent too much money. What we liked most ,though ,was going to the theatre. We don't have the chance to see such wonderful plays at home. A lot of people say English food is very bad. We don't think so. It is true that most of the restaurants are French or Italian or Chinese ,but we had some very good meals.In fact, we enjoyed our holiday so much that we have already planned another trip this year. We are going to take our umbrellas, though. I'm sure we'll need them.答案：1－5ACBCB6－10ACACB11－15ACACC16－20CBCBC第二局部阅读理解(共两节,总分值40分)第|一节(共15小题；每题2分,总分值30分)阅读以下短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最|正确选项.AWhen my brother and I were young ,my mom would take us on Transportation Days.It goes like this：You can't take any means of transportation more than once.We would start from home ,walking two blocks to the rail station.We'd take the train into the city center ,then a bus ,switching to the tram ,then maybe a taxi.We always considered taking a horse carriage in the historic district ,but we didn't like the way the horses were treated ,so we never did.At the end of the day ,we took the subway to our closest station ,where Mom's friend was waiting to give us a ride home -our first car ride of the day.The good thing about Transportation Days is not only that Mom taught us how to get around.She was born to be multimodal(多方式的)．She understood that depending on cars only was a failure of imagination and ,above all ,a failure of confidence -the product of a childhood not spent exploring subway tunnels.Once you learn the route map and step with certainty over the gap between the train and the platform ,nothing is frightening anymore.New cities are just light rail lines to be explored.And your personal car ,if you have one ,becomes just one more tool in the toolbox -and often an inadequate one ,limiting both your mobility and your wallet.On Transportation Days ,we might stop for lunch on Chestnut Street or buy a new book or toy ,but the transportation was the point.First ,it was exciting enough to watch the world speed by from the train window.As I got older ,my mom helped me unlock the mysteries that would otherwise have paralyzed my first attempts to do it myself：How do I know where to get off ?How do I know how much it costs ?How do I know when I need tickets ,and where to get them ?What track ,what line ,which direction ,where's the stop ,and will I get wet when we go under the river?I'm writing this right now on an airplane ,a means we didn't try on our Transportation Days and ,we now know ,the dirtiest and most polluting of them all.My flight routed me throughPhiladelphia.My multimodal mom met me for dinner in the airport.She took a train to meet me.21．Which was forbidden by Mom on Transportation Days?A．Having a car ride.B．Taking the train twice.C．Buying more than one toy.D．Touring the historic district.答案与解析：B细节理解题.根据第二段第|一句可知,在 "交通日〞那天,乘坐任何交通工具不能超过一次.应选择B项.22．According to the writer ,what was the greatest benefit of her Transportation Days?A．Building confidence in herself.B．Reducing her use of private cars.C．Developing her sense of direction.D．Giving her knowledge about vehicles.答案与解析：A推理判断题.根据第三段最|后一句可以推断,作者认为, "交通日〞的最|大的好处是增强了她的自信心.23．The underlined word "paralyzed〞(in Para.5) is closest in meaning to "________〞．A．displayed B．justifiedC．ignored D．ruined答案与解析：D词义猜想题.该句中that引导的定语从句修饰mysteries ,该从句使用了虚拟语气.表示与事实相反的情况.结合上下文内容可知,该画线词大意为 "毁坏,破坏〞.24．Which means of transportation does the writer probably disapprove of?A．Airplane. B．Subway.C．Tram. D．Car.答案与解析：A推理判断题.根据最|后一段第|一句中的"the dirtiest and most polluting of them all〞可推断,作者最|不赞同的交通方式就是乘坐飞机.BWhen I was a kid ,there was a series of books called Froggy.One particular book was Froggy Goes to Bed by Jonathan London.They would always tell how Froggy would go on these adventures in everyday life and finally his mom would call "Frooooggy〞and tell him to do something he didn't want to do and he would take a long time to do it.After hearing and learning to read these books ,my parents kept giving me new books to read at night before bed and I realized reading wasn't so bad ,because it would help me sleep when I had trouble sleeping.Each story had an interesting plot and lesson.When I was older about the age of 11 ,I got really interested in Harry Potter.Once I started reading that throughout the day ,I would think to myself , "If only I were a wizard and enrolled (入学) in a school like Hogwarts !Each day would be amazing and I could study whatever spells (咒语) I wanted.〞I was totally absorbed in this series.My parents would read me a few chapters at night and my mom/dad would say "Good night ,Evan !〞but I would always want to hear more.Finally ,I would get so interested that I would read sometimes when it was raining ,or I had a long car ride ahead of me.Today looking back on reading as a kid ,I thank my parents for supplying me with the books as well as the willingness to read them.If I hadn't been shown these books ,my life might certainly be a lot more dull and boring ,and I might not be the same person I am right now.25．The underlined word "They〞in the first paragraph refers to ________.A．kids B．parentsC．Froggy D．adventures答案与解析：C代词指代题.根据第|一段中的"there was a series of books called Froggy...in everyday life〞可知,They指代的是上文提到的"a series of books〞,即Froggy ,应选C项.26．Why did the writer consider reading wasn't so bad before bed?A．Reading aroused his learning interest.B．Reading contributed to his sleep.C．Reading enriched his knowledge.D．Reading improved his life habit.答案与解析：B细节理解题.根据第二段中的 "I realized reading wasn't so bad ,because it would help me sleep when I had trouble sleeping.〞可知,睡前阅读有助于睡眠.应选B项.27．What is the writer's attitude to Harry Potter?A．Doubtful.B．Curious.C．Crazy.D．Indifferent.答案与解析：C推理判断题.根据第三段中的"I got really interested in Harry Potter〞以及 "Finally ,I would get so interested that...〞可知,作者对Harry Potter很痴迷.应选C项.28．What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A．The writer wants to be a different person.B．Reading makes the writer's life interesting.C．The writer's life is dull and boring.D．The writer works on literature now.答案与解析：B推理判断题.根据最|后一段中的 "If I hadn't been shown these books ,my life might certainly be a lot more dull and boring〞可知,如果没有这些书,作者的生活会更加沉闷、乏味.因此可推知阅读使作者的生活变得有趣.应选B项 .CIn today's information age ,it's nearly impossible to avoid using social media.According to USA Today,even American universities are increasingly using social media as a learning tool.Their goal is to teach students how to use social media professionally.Jade Johnson is taking an upper level advertising course at the University of North Carolina Wilmington.For the class ,he has had to organize and promote a contest via Facebook ,Twitter and Instagram ,channels that are commonly used by advertising firms."A lot of times students prefer not to use certain social media ,but are forced to because of the class ,〞says Jade.Some students may be reluctant to create an account ,but Jade says that it was helpful because social media skills mean better job opportunities in today's world.More college classes are appearing that are designed specially to teach students about social media ,offering them a different look into something they may use on a daily basis.Jenna Kapsis ,a senior at William Paterson University ,was required to post two Tweets on Twitter and one update on Facebook per week in her Digital and Social Media Communication class.The course had a specific Facebook page where students would create discussion groups and post links."Some of the topics included social media manners ,online marketing and current events ,〞Kapsis says.As technology continues to develop ,colleges and universities will likely continue to find ways to combine it into their teaching.Whether it's to create discussion groups ,carry out plans ,or communicate with students ,professors are ensuring that students can see the potential of mastering social media platforms.29．According to Jade ,what's the benefit of social media skills?A．Improving students' learning efficiency.B．Offering students a different look into things.C．Contributing to the possibility of acquiring good jobs.D．Bettering the communication between teachers and students.答案与解析：C细节理解题.根据文章第四段中的"Jade says that it was helpful because social media skills mean better job opportunities〞可知,掌握这些技能有助于今后有更好的工作时机.30．What can we infer from the passage?A．Most students are reluctant to use social media.B．Social media skills are difficult for students to master.C．Social media skills have been expanded to some courses.D．The learning of social media skills is a heavy burden for students.答案与解析：C推理判断题.根据文章第二段和第六段的内容可知选项C正确.31．Which of the following may not be one way to combine social media into teaching?A．Creating discussion groups.B．Doing some experiments.C．Carrying out plans.D．Communicating with students.答案与解析：B细节理解题.根据文章最|后一段中的"find ways to combine it into their teaching〞和 "Whether it's to create discussion groups ,carry out plans ,or communicate with students...〞可知答案为B .DIt's 5：00 in the morning when the alarm (闹钟) rings in my ears.I roll out of bed and walk blindly through the dark into the bathroom.I turn on the light and put on my glasses.The house is still as I walk downstairs while my husband and three kids sleep ually I go for a long run ,but today I choose my favorite exercise DVD ,Insanity.Sweat pours down my face and into my eyes.My heart races as I force my body to finish each movement.As I near the end of the exercise ,I feel extremely tired ,but a smile is on my face.It's not a smile because the DVD is over ,but a smile of success from pushing my body to its extreme limit.Some people enjoy shopping ,smoking ,food ,work ,or even chocolate.But I need exercise to get through each day.Some shake heads when they see me run through the town.Others get hurt when I refuse to try just one bite of their grandmother's chocolate cake.They raise their eyebrows ,surprised by my "no thank you ,〞or by my choice to have a salad.Over the years ,I have learned it's okay to just say "no.〞I shouldn't feel sorry for refusing food that I don't want to eat.So what drives me to roll out of bed at 5：00 a．m. ?What gives me the reason to just say no to ice cream ?Commitment.A commitment to change my life with a way that reduces daily anxiety ,increases self confidence and energy ,extends life and above all improves my body shape.This is the point where a smile appears on my face as I look at myself in the mirror or try on my favorite pair of jeans that now fit just right.It's through commitment and sweat that I can make a difference within myself inside and out.32．Why is there a smile on the author's face in the morning?A．Because she sees her family sleeping peacefully.B．Because she finishes her favorite exercise.C．Because she enjoys the interesting DVD.D．Because she feels a sense of achievement.答案与解析：D细节理解题.由第|一段最|后一句"...a smile of success from pushing my body to its extreme limit.〞可知作者脸上露出笑容是因为锻炼给她带来了成就感.33．Which of the following is TRUE according to Paragraph 2?A．She doesn't treat others politely.B．She likes to make others surprised.C．Others don't understand what she does.D．Others try to help her by offering her food.答案与解析：C细节理解题.由第二段的 "They raise their eyebrows ,surprised by my‘no thank you , ,or by my choice to have a salad.〞可知,许多人对她的做法不解、惊讶.A、B两项文中未提及；其他人的做法并非是帮助作者,故D项错误.34．What does the underlined word "commitment〞in the last paragraph mean?A．Good health. B．Firm belief.C．A strong power. D．A regular habit.答案与解析：B词义猜想题.由下句对commitment的解释 "A commitment to change my life with a way that reduces daily anxiety ,increases self confidence and energy ,extends life and above all improves my body shape.〞可知指的是她的坚决信念.35．What can we learn about the author from the text?A．She acts in a strange way.B．She wants to look different from others.C．She aims to develop a good body shape.D．She has difficulty getting along with others.答案与解析：C推理判断题.由最|后一段的"...and above all improves my body shape〞可知作者的锻炼是为了保持良好的体型.作者的行为并不乖僻,且文中也未提及她难与别人沟通.第二节(共5小题；每题2分,总分值10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|正确选项.选项中有两项为多余选项.36__Accept your stress.__37__ But it means that you're aware of what is causing your stress and what you need to avoid.Accepting does not mean ignoring it ,but rather that you understand the origin of your stress.Realize that your stress is a healthy response to stimuli (刺激物)．So it can be dealt with in a proper way.__38__ Sometimes ,a stressful situation is just a matter of perspective.Instead of focusing on the negatives and the problems that are causing your stress ,concentrate on the positives.When you change your viewpoint ,you can change your level of stress altogether.Do your best to see things in a positive light ,and avoid cynicism (愤世嫉俗) at all costs.__39__ Often ,stress arises from feeling e a planner to keep track of your "to do lists〞．Being organized and getting your priorities (优先事项) straight can help you break responsibilities down into manageable pieces and focus on the things that really matter to you.Staying on top of chores and errands will keep you in a positive mindest ,and help you get more done in the long run.Learn to say no.You cannot do everything you are asked. __40__ Indeed ,the more you promise and don't deliver ,the less people will think of you as being nice；rather ,they'll consider your supposed largesse a nuisance ,knowing that you'll drop the ball at the last minute.Instead ,be wise and learn to say no politely but firmly and always when you know there isn't a chance at all that you'll get the thing done.A．Be better organized.B．Think about your problems in a different way.C．You should be objective when facing stress.D．It may seem unwise to admit your stress.E．Why do you keep pretending that you can?F．The following tips can help you reduce stress.G．You turn to someone else for help when necessary.答案与解析：现代社会,人们都饱受压力之苦.本文提出四点建议,帮助我们学会减压.36．F本句为过渡语,从第|一段的导入话题过渡到下文给读者提出几点建议 .37．D本段小标题为接受你的压力.成认有压力似乎不明智,但是这意味着你知道什么导致你感到压力、你需要防止什么.因此选D .38．B根据本段中的 "When you change your viewpoint ,you can change your level of stress altogether.〞这一句可知,本段小标题为B .建议读者换个方式思考问题,或者换个角度看问题.39．A根据"Being organized〞及后面的内容可知,A项(更有条理)符合要求.40．E本段的小标题为 "学会拒绝|〞.上句为：你做不了所有要你做的事情,因此选E： "你为什么一直假装能做呢?〞第三局部英语知识运用(共两节,总分值45分)第|一节：完形填空(共20小题；每题1.5分,总分值30分)阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出可以填入空白处的最|正确选项.Whenever we hear about "the homeless〞,most of us think of the Developing World.But the __41__ is that homelessness is everywhere.For example ,how many of us would expect to see people living on the streets of a __42__ country like Germany?Kurt Muller and his wife Rita have spent eleven years making __43__ for the homeless of Berlin ,Germany's capital.They first __44__ one long hot summer when most Germans were __45__ on holiday.Kurt and his wife stayed at home ,made sandwiches ,__46__ a table in the street and gave food to the homeless.The Mullers soon realised that food and clothing weren't __47__.
