人教版高中英语选修六课后阅读训练: 十 Unit 3 Period 2 (含答案)

课后阅读训练十Unit 3 Period 2Ⅰ. 阅读理解AChina now has 380 million smokers, accounting for one-third of the world total. Chinese smokers now become addicted to nicotine at the age of 19, five years earlier than the average starting age of 24 in 1997.Of the 1. 1 billion smokers all over the world, more than 800 million are in developing countries. And as the world’s largest developing country, China also has the largest number of smokers.Some frightening facts start to appear when we examine who China’s smokers are. Of the 380 million addicts, more than 100 million are under the age of 18, while more than 50 percent of male teachers and doctors are smokers.Such a high rate of addicts among male teachers and doctors will certainly have a bad effect on the young generation. Teachers are usually expected to be role models for students who tend to consider whatever they do is right and follow their examples. It is very likely that the number of teenage smokers will increase in the near future unless measures are taken to forbid teachers from smoking in front of their students or designate schools as non-smoking zones.What is truly puzzling is why so many doctors smoke. Theyare aware of the results of the habit, such as high blood pressure and lung cancer. Their examples only help justify the addiction of so many others.If educated people set an example by stopping smoking at least in public places, it would be much easier to drive home the notion that it is uncivilized to smoke in public places.In China, there also should be a national law to ban smoking in public places. These would make a massive contribution to cutting the number of people in China who are smoking themselves into an early grave.【语篇概述】全文探讨了中国烟民的现状, 并提出应该采取措施帮助人们改掉这个毛病。

1. Which of the following can serve as the best title of the passage?A. Time to kick the bad habitB. China bans smoking in public placesC. Smokers in ChinaD. Make people aware of smoking【解析】选A。

主旨大意题。

全文探讨中国烟民的现状, 最后说应该采取措施帮助人们改掉这个毛病, 因此本文的最佳标题是A项。

2. In developing countries, China has the largest number of smokers, which covers__________.A. one-third of its totalB. one-eighth of its totalC. less than half its totalD. more than half its total【解析】选C。

推理判断题。

第一段说中国有三亿八千万烟民; 第二段说发展中国家有八亿多烟民, 由此可知中国烟民几乎占其中的一半。

3. In the writer’s opinion, who have influenced young smokers, especially those under 18?A. Parents.B. Teachers only.C. Advertisements.D. Teachers and doctors.【解析】选D。

细节理解题。

由第四段可知, 男教师和男医生中烟民比例如此之高, 这无疑会对年轻人有坏的影响。

4. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the text?A. In China, those who get into the habit of smoking seem to be younger and younger.B. More than half of teachers and doctors are smokers in China.C. The writer suggests schools should be designated as non-smoking zones.D. It is of great benefit to ban smoking in public places. 【解析】选B。

细节理解题。

由第三段可知, 在中国50%以上的男教师和男医生抽烟; 而B项的“在中国超过一半的教师和医生抽烟”显然不对。

B(2017·浙江高考) Getting less sleep has become a bad habit for most American kids. According to a new survey(调查) by the National Sleep Foundation, 51% of kids aged 10 to 18 go to bed at 10 pm or lateron school nights, even though they have to get up early. Last year the Foundation reported that nearly 60% of 7-to 12-year-olds said they felt tired during the day, and 15% said they had fallen asleep at school.How much sleep you need depends a lot on your age. Babies need a lot of rest: most of them sleep about 18 hours a day! Adults need about eight hours. For most school-age children, ten hours is ideal(理想的). But the new National Sleep Foundation survey found that 35% of 10-to 12-year-olds get only seven or eight hours. And guess what almost half of the surveyed kids said they do before bedtime? Watch TV.“More children are going to bed with TVs on, and there are more opportunities(机会) to stay awake, with more homework, the Internet and the phone, ” says Dr. Mary Carskadon, a sleep researcher at Brown University Medical School. She says these activities at bedtime can get kids all excited and make it hard for them to calm down and sleep. Other experts say part of the problem is chemical. Changing levels of body chemicals called hormones not only make teenagers’bodies develop adult characteristics, but also make it hard for teenagers to fall asleep before 11 pm.Because sleepiness is such a problem for teenagers, some school districts have decided to start high school classes later than they used to. Three years ago, schools in Edina, Minnesota, changed the start time from 7: 25 am to 8: 30 am.Students, parents and teachers are pleased with the results. 【语篇概述】本文是一篇说明文。

人教版高中英语选修六课后阅读训练12.【Unit 3 Period 4】及答案解析

人教版高中英语选修六课后阅读训练12.【Unit3Period4】及答案解析Ⅰ.阅读理解ANow,we know that if we do not get enough vitamins,we are at risk of developing a number of diseases.As a result,vitamin supplements(补品),though expensive,are popular with people who worry that they are not getting enough vitamins from the foods they eat.But contrary to what many people think,medical experts have found little evidence that most supplements do anything to improve health or protect against disease.In fact,medical experts warn that taking too many of some vitamins can be harmful.For example,too much vitamin E can cause bleeding.People should discuss what vitamins they take with their doctors,as some vitamins can produce harmful side effects when mixed with medicines.Experts,however,do say that sometimes vitamins can help prevent disease.People who know they lack a particular vitamin should take vitamin supplements.Some older adults,for example,may not have enough vitaminB-twelve.This is because,as people get older,their body loses its ability to take it from foods.Also,people who spend much time inside may need some extra vitamin D as the skin makes this vitamin from sunlight.Different vitamins are found in different foods.Vitamin A is found in fish liver oil.It is also in the yellow partof eggs.Sweet potatoes,carrots and other darkly colored fruits and vegetables contain substances that the body can change into vitamin A.Vitamin B-twelve is found in green leafy vegetables and other foods,like fruits.Vitamin K can be found in pork products.In fact,for most people,a balanced diet can ensure enough of the vitamins our bodies need.So,it is important for us to eat a mixture of foods every day to ensure that we get enough vitamins our bodies need.【语篇概述】本文是说明文。

Glass,of the University of Michigan’s Addiction Research Centre said. “Cigarette smoking has bad effect on IQ and thinking,” she said.This finding may seem counter-intuitive (违反直觉的), since many smokers show that they feel quicker and focused after smoking. Indeed, research shows that improved mental functioning is one of the immediate effects of nicotine exposure. Chronic(长期的) smoking, however, is known to have the opposite effect.Studies show that up to 87 per cent of alcoholics smoke cigarettes. Yet, few studies have looked into cigarette smoking as a factor that might explain the cognitive(认知的) lack reported among alcoholics. To search for that association, Glass and her colleagues examined brain function among 172 men from the same area, including 103 men who abused alcohol. The team found that men with higher scoreson the lifetime alcohol problems scale (LAPS) and those who reported a higher number of packs—years of smoking—both had lower IQ scores. Upon further research, the researchers found that smoking also appeared to be independently associated with weaker word and space reasoning.Thus, though smoking did not account for all of the decreased mental functioning observed among the alcohol abusers, it did seem to account for some of the effects, the report indicates.1. What is the passage mainly about?A.Cigarette smoking contributes to decreased IQ and thinking.B.Alcohol abuse is to blame for the poorer mental function.C.Most of the alcoholics are also heavy smokers.D.Non-smokers mostly have higher IQ scores.2. The underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 suggests .A.chronic smoking can improve mental functioningB.chronic smoking has an immediate influence on mental functioningC.chronic smoking has side effects on mental functioning improvementD.chronic smokers feel quicker and focused after smoking3. From the passage we can learn that .A.cigarette smoking is not related to reasoningB.nicotine exposure can improve mental functioning temporarilyC.the long-term effects of nicotine cause alcoholicsD.men with lower scores on the LAPS have lower IQ scores4. It can be inferred from the passage that .A.many alcoholics suffer a great deal from smokingB.giving up smoking is significantly challenging for the alcoholicsC.alcoholics who do not smoke much have higher IQ scoresD.other factors can cause the poorer mental functioning besides smokingⅤ.语法填空阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。

课后阅读训练三Unit 1 Period 3Ⅰ. 阅读理解AJack Ma, whose Chinese name is Ma Yun, became the richest man in China, when the company he founded floatedon the stock market last year with a value of around£140 billion. Here are some interesting stories about him.1. “Beer”was the first word that Jack Ma searched for on the Internet.In 1995 Ma made his first trip to the US and used the Internet for the first time. After searching for “beer”and then “China”, he saw that no results came up relating to China. He decided to set up a Chinese website—the seed for Alibaba had been sown.2. Jack Ma applied to study at Harvard 10 times and was rejected each time.Ma failed the entry exams for colleges in China three times and was also rejected for many jobs in China, including one at KFC. He was turned down by Harvard 10 times after applying.3. Jack Ma learnt English by giving tourists free guides—every day for nine years.Limited resources meant it was difficult to learn English when Ma was young. However, he found that he could learn the language by giving tourists free tours around his hometown ofHangzhou—something that he did during his teenage years every morning for nine years. He found everything they said and did was so different from what he had been taught at school and by his parents, which opened his mind.4. Jack Ma named his company Alibaba because it’s a globally known story.Ma simply wanted his company to have a global and interesting name, and realised that Alibaba is a story known across the world and it begins with A, appearing top of lists.The company was founded in 1999 and since then has grown from 15 employees to more than 30, 000. Ma hopes to keep expanding Alibaba outside of China.【语篇概述】阿里巴巴公司上市以后, 马云成了中国最富有的人。

人教版高中英语选修六课后阅读训练10.【Unit 3 Period 2】及答案解析

人教版高中英语选修六课后阅读训练10.【Unit 3 Period 2】及答案解析Ⅰ. 阅读理解AChina now has 380 million smokers, accounting for one-third of the world total. Chinese smokers now becomeaddicted to nicotine at the age of 19, five years earlier than the average starting age of 24 in 1997.Of the 1. 1 billion smokers all over the world, more than 800 million are in developingcountries. And as the world’s largest developing country, China also has the largest number ofsmokers.Some frightening facts start to appear when we examine who China’s smokers are. Of the 380 million addic ts, more than 100 million are under the age of 18, while more than 50 percent of male teachers and doctors are smokers.Such a high rate of addicts among male teachers and doctors will certainly have a bad effect on the young generation. Teachers are usually expected to be role models for students who tend to consider whatever they do is right and follow their examples. It is very likely that the number of teenage smokers will increase in the near future unless measures are taken to forbid teachers from smoking in front of their students or designate schools as non-smoking zones.What is truly puzzling is why so many doctors smoke. They are aware of the results of the habit, such as high blood pressure and lung cancer. Their examples only help justify the addiction of so many others.If educated people set an example by stopping smoking at least in public places, it would be much easier to drive home the notion that it is uncivilized to smoke in public places.In China, there also should be a national law to ban smoking in public places. These would make a massive contribution to cutting the number of people in China who are smoking themselves into an early grave.【语篇概述】全文探讨了中国烟民的现状, 并提出应该采取措施帮助人们改掉这个毛病。
