Module 1 Life in the FutureⅠ.话题延读Over the next decade, technology will decimate more jobs in many professions.Some robots already cost less to operate than the salaries of the humans they replace, and they are getting cheaper.Boston Consulting Group predicts that, by 2025, the operating cost of a robot that does welding (焊接) will be less than $2 per hour, for example.That’s more affordable than the $25 per hour that a human welder earns today in America.Uber and many other companies are working on developing cars and trucks that don’t need a driver in the driver’s seat.According to the American Trucking Associations, approximately 3 million truck drivers were employed in the United States in 2010, and 6.8 million others were employed in other jobs relating to trucking activity.So roughly one of every 15 workers in the country is employed in the trucking business.We could be talking about millions of jobs disappearing in the early 2020s.And then there is the “Gig Economy (零工经济)” that has some businesses moving toward part-time, on-demand employment.Uber has already done this to taxi drivers, and other technology companies are doing it to a wide range of jobs.A study by INTUIT predicted that, by 2020, 40% of American workers will be self-employed, and that full-time jobs will be harder to find.We are talking about 60 million people in this category.The problem is that not only do such part-time workers lack reliable full-time jobs and sick pay, but they can’t enjoy health insurance and longer-term benefits.The measures to be taken are to raise trade barriers.But closing the doors to foreign trade won’t bring jobs back.It will only slow the global economy and hurt American exports, shrinking the U.S.economy and accelerating job loss.1.The underlined word “decimate” in Paragraph 1 can be replaced by “”.A.make someone interested inB.equip someone forC.wipe outD.bring back2.What will happen with technologies developing according to the text?A.Robots will become smarter and smarter.B.Uber’s labor cost will be lower and lower.C.More and more truck drivers will be needed.D.Taxi drivers can enjoy more health insurance.3.Which of the following does the writer agree on?A.Welcoming foreign trade.B.Offering more part-time jobs.ing fewer robots to stop job loss.D.Developing more new technologies.4.What’s the writer’s main purpose in writing the text?A.To show technology advances in our daily life.B.To prove technologies cause low incomes.C.To introduce what the Gig Economy is.D.To warn the Gig Economy is coming.语篇解读:本文为一篇议论文。
作者认为,在未来十年里,新科技的运用会缩减大量工作岗位,零工经济将会出现。
答案及剖析:1.C 猜测词义题。
根据第三段最后一句We could be talking about millions of jobs disappearing in the early 2020s.可以推断出,随着新科技的运用,许多工作会消失,由此可以推测出与C项wipe out(消灭,摧毁)同义。
2.B 推理判断题。
根据第三段中Uber and many other companies are working on developing cars and trucks that don’t need a driver in the driver’s seat.可知,Uber 公司将大幅减少劳动力成本。
故B项正确。
3.A 推理判断题。
根据最后一段中But closing the doors to foreign trade won’t bring jobs back.It will only slow the global economy and hurt American exports,shrinking the U.S.economy and accelerating job loss.可知,作者认为关闭外贸之门不会带来就业,它只会使全球经济变缓,使美国出口受损,从而收缩了美国经济,加剧了失业,因此作者应该是赞同对外贸易的。
故A项正确。
4.D 推理判断题。
本文论述科技对社会的影响,并告诫人们科技的发展使得工作岗位大量减少,零工经济将会出现。
故选D项。
Ⅱ.七选五(2018安徽六校教育研究会联考) Americans use many expressions with the word dog.People in the United States love their dogs and treat them well.They take their dogs for walks,let them play outside and give them good food and medical care.1. The expression,to lead a dog’s life,describes a person who has an unhappy existence.Some people say we live in a dog-eat-dog world.2. They say that to be successful,a person has to work like a dog.This means they have to work very,very hard.Such hard work can make people dog-tired.And,the situation would be even worse if they became sick as a dog.Still,people say every dog has its day.This means that every person enjoys a successful period during his or her life.To be successful,people often have to learn new skills.Yet,some people say that you can never teach an old dog new tricks.3.Some people are compared to dogs in bad ways.People who are unkind or uncaring can be described as meaner than a junkyard dog.Husbands and wives use this doghouse term when they are angry at each other.For example,a woman might get angry at her husband for coming home late or forgetting their wedding anniversary.She might tell him that he is in the doghouse.4.However,the husband may decide that it is best to leave things alone and not create more problems.He might decide to let sleeping dogs lie.5. The dog days of summer are the hottest days of the year.A rainstorm may cool the weather.But we do not want it to rain too hard.We do not want it to rain cats and dogs.A.She may not treat him nicely until he apologizes.B.Dog expressions also are used to describe the weather.C.They firmly believe that dogs are the best friends of human beings.D.She will drop a line to remind him of it or ring him back at once.E.However,dogs without owners to care for them lead a different kind of life.F.That means many people are competing for the same things,like good jobs.G.They believe that older people do not like to learn new things and will not change the way they do things.答案:1—5 EFGABⅢ.完形填空(2018江西八所重点中学联考) Like most young couples,my husband and I didn’t have money for luxurious gifts on our first wedding anniversary.We were 1 to have a meal and watch a romantic movie at home.Simply being able to enjoy each other’s 2 was enough.No gift on earth could come close to 3 our love for one another.So when the mailman knocked on the door,I was very 4 to see a medium-sized package from my mother.Both eager and curious to see what was awaiting us in the package,I 5tore open the box and immediately my eyes were filled with tears.Inside the box was a 6 folded quilt my mother had made by hand.It was white with rose 7 and gold thread.The backing 8 beautiful tiny purple flowers.Accompanying the quilt was a 9 from my mother:“Happy Anniversary ! 10 is a quilt.The purple was your wedding colour and the gold thread 11 the golden rings you two exchanged on your wedding day.May this quilt keep you warm when times are cold and 12 you of the day you said your vows-Love,Mom.”I was touched 13 words.I knew my mom surely had sacrificed to be able to afford this.The time alone to sew such a detailed quilt was 14 to me.I just 15 my mother coming home from a long day at work and staying up 16 the early hours of the next morning delicately 17 the quilt together.We both knew a part of my mom’s 18 was sewn right into the quilt.How could any gift ever compare to such a genuine gift?Many years have passed since our first anniversary,but neither of us has 19 the beautiful quilt.My husband always jokes that the best anniversary 20 I have ever received wasn’t from him but from my mother,and I agree.1.A.eager B.discouraged C.content D.upset2.A.concentration pany fort D.reliance3.A.expressing B.explaining C.declaring D.describing4.A.depressed B.disappointed C.scared D.surprised5.A.carelessly B.slowly C.quickly D.casually6.A.roughly B.neatly C.messily D.totally7.A.patterns B.smells C.shapes D.colors8.A.consisted of B.made up C.turned into D.took up9.A.bill B.check C.poster D.note10.A.Donated B.Attached C.Purchased D.Sewn11.A.represents bines C.fastens D.bearsrm B.warn C.remind D.convince13.A.in B.beyond C.between D.without14.A.unimaginable B.improperC.dissatisfyingD.unfair15.A.saw B.foundC.picturedD.heard16.A.before B.afterC.sinceD.until17.A.wrapping B.piecingC.gatheringD.piling18.A.attention B.interestC.hobbyD.love19.A.remembered B.abandonedC.forgottenD.missed20.A.ring B.roseC.ceremonyD.present语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。

Module 1 Life in the Future(建议用时：30分钟)Ⅰ阅读理解A(2019·广州调研测试)Petrol and diesel cars may stilldominate our roads，but their days are numbered. A recentuniversity study found that current electric cars could be usedfor 87 per cent of daily car journeys in the U．S. That figurecould rise to 98 per cent by 2020.One hurdle to the widespread adoption of electric cars has been “range anxiety”—driver s’ concerns about running out of juice on a journey. While petrol stations are conveniently located across national road systems，the necessary network of electric charging stations is still being developed. That said，charging points are becoming increasingly common throughout the U．S.A.Attitudes towards electric vehicles have changed quite considerably over the last few years. Not that long ago，electric cars were met with distrust，and their large price tags drove customers away. Thanks to improvements in battery capacity，recharging times，performance and price，the current generation of electric cars is starting to persuade critics. Plugin cars will soon give internal combustion engine models a run for their money.As well as advancements on the road，electric vehicles are taking to the seas and skies. Electric boats are among the oldest methods of electric travel，having enjoyed several decades of popularity from the late 19th to the early 20th century before petrolpowered outboard motors took over. Now，the global drive for renewable energy sources is bringing electric boats back. Steps towards electric air travel are also being made，with Airbus and NASA among the organizations developing and testing battery powered planes. The experiments could soon make commercial electric flight a reality.Electric vehicles do not produce any emissions. Were the U．S. to act on the study’s findings and replace 87 per cent of its cars with electric vehicles，it would reduce the national demand for petrol by 61 per cent. However，because of the production processes and the generation of electricity required to charge these vehicles，they cannot claim to be completely emissionfree. That said，as manycountries continue to increase their use of renewable energy sources，electric vehicles will become even cleaner.【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文。

2019-2020年高考英语一轮复习高考提能练十九Module1LifeintheFuture外研版必修Ⅰ.阅读理解A(xx·黑龙江哈尔滨六中一模)With fuel costs rising and airlines finding more fees to impose (强加，征税)on travelers every day, airfare isn't getting any cheaper. Since you can't drive to all your dream destinations, flying is the only way to go sometimes and, undeniably, the fastest. Luckily, there are plenty of ways to find the most affordable fares and also avoid paying as many extra charges as possible when you plan ahead.Get the best fare. Airlines put out their fare sales on Tuesday morning, making this day the best day to book a flight for less.Fly during the least popular times. Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday are the slowest days to fly, which means cheaper deals than the rest of the week. You can also find reduced rates on early morning flights, since many people don't like to get up before the sun to get to the airport. Earlier boarding times can also considerably cut down your chances of getting bumped on an overbooked flight or delayed because of other delayed flights or mechanical issues.Choose your seat later. Some airlines charge you to pick your seat when you book online, adding even more to the bottom line of your ticket cost. If you show up early on your travel day, you can still get suitable seats. Some of the best seats get held back until flight day, unless others are willing to pay extra for them ahead of time, so you still have the chance at one of those.Fly on holidays. You already know that summer is the most expensive time to fly, and even though most other times are more affordable, the days surrounding holidays can be crazy. Save big if you're willing to travel on major holidays, such as Thanksgiving and Christmas.Don't wait until the last－minute to book. Many travelers don't know that there's a sweet spot for booking and getting the best price on your tickets. Book too early or too late and you could end up paying more than you need to. The best time to book is between three months and six weeks from when you want to travel.【语篇解读】本文主要讲述了在燃油费和机场建设费日益增长的今天，乘坐飞机会是非常昂贵的。

基础自测(十九)必修4Module 1Life in the Future姓名:时间:30分钟Ⅰ.阅读理解主题词数体裁人工智能在农业中350 说明文的运用Nearly every week, we hear news about the latest successes and failures in driverless vehicles. But we hear little about how other industries are developing this same kind of technology. One industry heavily involved in researching and developing artificial intelligence, or AI, is agriculture. Companies are experimenting with high-tech tools that can help farmers save time and money, while reducing environment-harming chemicals.One of the companies is ecoRobotix of Switzerland. It created a robot equipped with AI and cameras to identify all plants on a farm. The robot has four wheels to carry it through the fields in search of weeds.Computer-controlled arms then lower and spray the weeds with small amounts of herbicide(除草剂). Company officials say the robot can fully operate on its own for up to 12 hours a day while being powered by the sun. It uses the samekind of sensor and positioning technology used to guide driverless vehicles. A farmer can also control the equipment through a smartphone.The co-founder of ecoRobotix, Aurelien Demaurex, says the farming robot can kill weeds with 20 times less herbicide than traditional methods. This is because the system uses exactly the right quantity of chemicals in the exact place required to kill the weeds. Currently, farmers spread weedkillers over massive areas to destroy unwanted plants.Another company developing farm robotics is California-based Blue River Technology. The company has a system called “See & Spray”, which it claims is the world’s first smart sprayer. The system—which connects to the back of a tractor—is also equipped with AI to identify and chemically kill only the weeds. It can also spray chemicals on wanted plants to help them grow. Ben Chostner, vice-president of business development at Blue River Technology, explains in a company video that See & Spray technology uses the same deep learning methods used in facial recognit ion. “The first time the machine saw a pigweed, it didn’t know what kind of plant it was. But we taught it—by giving it tens of thousands of examples of that pigweed—and now it’s an expert in pigweed.”()1.How will AI benefit agriculture?A.It will fund agriculture research.B.It contributes to low-cost farming.C.It can avoid harmful chemicals.D.It frees all farmers from farm work.()2.What do the products of the two companies have in common?A.They use recognition technology.B.They are powered by solar energy.C.They are connected with smartphones.D.They can help wanted plants grow rapidly.()3.What do Ben Chostner’s words suggest about the robot?A.It is environmentally friendly.B.It is good at self-improving.C.It has the learning ability.D.It can track various plants.()4.What is mainly talked about in the text?A.The experiment in farming robots.B.The new trend in artificial intelligence.C.Modern See & Spray technology.D.Artificial intelligence in agriculture.Ⅱ.阅读七选五主题词数体裁出国留学的大学生268 说明文如何在校外租房If you’re going abroad for college, you might be thinking about how to get yourself a safe and cozy home for the years ahead. Of course, dormitories are always a good place to start, but some large state colleges require juniors to live off campus due to the limited number of dorm rooms.1..How to find a house2.. If you are just a freshman or don’t know many people, don’t hesitate to approach some upperclassmen in your classes or clubs. More often than not, upperclassmen have more experience with renting and are more familiar with the area your school is in.Another good idea is to talk to seniors who are currently living off campus. These seniors’ landlords will most likely be looking for new tenants(房客) after the students graduate from college.Also, registered Realtors(房地产经纪人) might be able to find you a place for a fee. In addition, Facebook groups can also provide some useful information.3..Room-matesHaving room-mates can not only save us some money, but also give us valuable companionship. However, remember that finding the right room-mate for yourself is the most important thing, other than safety concerns.4., definitely do not lie about your preference, schedule, or habits, even if talking about them could make you uncomfortable. On the other side, also remember to ask your potential room-mates to tell you about themselves in detail.5., please do everybody a favour by being upfront about it.

入舵市安恙阳光实验学校【志鸿优化设计】高考英语一轮复习 Module1 Life in the Future考点规范练19（含解析）外研版必修4Ⅰ.阅读理解According to a new analysis,we are rapidly approaching major climate change and the effects on society and the environment could be quite serious.Geographers predict that within the next eighty years,climate zones could completely disappear,determining where crops will be grown.Polar regions get colder while tropical regions get even hotter,forcing animals to move to the north.Climate changes like these could lead to the spread of diseases.Tropical storms and hurricanes will not only increase but may also become stronger.If the changes come too quickly,animal and plant species may not be able to adapt fast enough and could disappear.According to Science Daily,a new study predicts that,by the year 2100,many of today’s familiar climates will be replaced by climates unknown in today’s world.It is urgent that we reduce the risks of far-reaching results for the whole world.The planet itself has been showing signs of change.In 2004,a huge tsunami created by a major earthquake killed thousands in Sumatra and in2008,thousands more died in China in another big earthquake.Egypt was hit in 2009 with a major earthquake and Haiti was destroyed seriously in 2010 by yet another big earthquake.Not long ago,scientists discovered ice melting in west Antarctica.This is very worrying because temperatures in this area have remained rather constant and actually even lower attimes.Melting occurs when temperatures increase and since the temperatures have remained normal,the ice should not bemelting.However,satellite data shows melting around west Antarctica.Within just the last few months,new reports from around the world have been coming in and most all agree that our climate situation is much worse than previously thought.At this point,it doesn’t matter what is causing it,but rather,what can be done about it.On the other hand,our world is getting more and moreunstable every year.Natural disasters are becoming more frequent and serious.However,other planets are experiencing global warming as well as our own and some scientists believe there may be some connections between these.No one knows anything for sure at this point because there is simply not enough data.1.What would happen if the climate changes too quickly?A.Animals and plants will have to grow in the north.B.Animal and plant species may die out at last.C.Natural disasters will increase but less serious.D.Climate zones will shift and might disappear.2.Why does the author mention the earthquakes happened?A.To show the damage earthquakes have caused.B.To show people’s inability to adjust to the changes.C.To remind people climate changes have begun.D.To tell us more earthquakes are approaching.3.What does the author think matters more?A.To explore the reasons for the climate changes.B.To explore the possible measures against the climate changes.C.To collect more data of the climate changes.D.To figure out what causes the ice in Antarctica to melt.4.The text is mainly about .A.how to protect our planetB.solutions to the climate changesC.how to prepare for the climate changesD.effects of the climate changesⅡ.完形填空The concept of solitude(独处)in the digital world is almostnon-existent.In the world of digital technology,e-mail,social networking and online video games,information is meant to be 1 . Solitude can be hard to discover 2 it has been given up.In this respect,new technologies have 3 our culture.The desire to be connected has brought solitude to a(n) 4 as we’ve known it.People have become so 5 in the world of networks and connections that one can often be contacted 6 they’drather not be.Today we can talk,text,e-mail,chat and blog(写博客),not only from our 7 ,but from our mobile phones as well.Most developed nations have become 8 on digital technology simply because they’ve grown accustomed to it,and at this point not 9 it would make them an outsider. 10 ,many jobs and careers require people to be 11 .From this point ofview,technology has changed the culture of work.Being reachable might feel like a 12 to those who may not want to be able to be contacted at all times.I suppose the positive side is that solitude is still possible for anyone who 13 wants puters can be shut 14 and mobile phones can be turned off.The ability to be“connected”and “on”has many 15 ,as well as disadvantages.Travelers have ended up 16 on mountains,and mobile phones have saved countlesslives.They can also make people feel 17 and forced to answer unwanted calls or 18 to unwanted texts.Attitudes towards our connectedness as a society 19 across generations.Some find today’s technology a gift.Others consider it a curse.Regardless of anyone’s view on the subject,it’s hard to imagine what life would be like 20 daily advancements in technology. 1.A.updated B.receivedC.sharedD.collected2.A.though B.untilC.onceD.before3.A.respected B.shapedC.ignoredD.preserved4.A.edge B.stageC.endD.balance5.A.sensitive B.intelligentC.considerateD.reachable6.A.even if B.only ifC.as ifD.if only7.A.media putersC.databasesD.monitors8.A.bent B.hardC.keenD.dependent9.A.finding ingC.protectingD.changing10.A.Also B.InsteadC.OtherwiseD.Somehow11.A.connected B.trainedC.recommendedD.interested12.A.pleasure B.benefitC.burdenD.disappointment13.A.slightly B.hardlyC.merelyD.really14.A.out B.downC.upD.in15.A.aspects B.weaknessesC.advantagesD.exceptions16.A.hidden B.lostC.relaxedD.deserted17.A.trapped B.excitedC.confusedD.amused18.A.turn B.submitC.objectD.reply19.A.vary B.ariseC.spreadD.exist 20.A.beyond B.withinC.despiteD.withoutⅢ.语法填空Do you know you can become a better student if you want to?You may say,“It takes me lots of time to study,but I still make little progress.”But 1. you can use your time well,you may improve your study.Here 2.(be) a few ways to help you.Plan your time 3.(care).You should make a list of things that you have to do in a week.First,write down the time4.meals,sleep,exercise,and so on.Then you should use the time that you can to study.Of course,don’t forget5.(leave) some time for your hobbies.Find 6. good place to study.It can be a desk or a cornerof your room.No games,radios in this place!When you sit down to study,think only about the subject!Make good 8. of your time in class.Listen carefully to9. the teacher says,and take notes if necessary.If you doso,it will be 10.(easy) and take less time for you to study later.Can you give any other ways to study?Ⅳ.短文改错I prefer my English classes to be taught in English only.What we all know,a good learning environment is of greatly importance if we want to study English well.Classes teaching in English provide students for a better environment.When English is an only language in class,students will have more opportunity to practise listening and speaking.However,there were problems with this method.Sometimes we may find difficult to follow the teacher and some slow learners may even give up learn English.In spite of these difficulties,but I believe practice makes perfect.With enough practice,we can overcome the difficulties and benefit from English classes in the long run. ##Ⅰ. 【语篇导读】本文主要讲述了气候变化对社会和环境产生的影响。
