Airlines have stopped or changed the flights across the Atlantic Ocean, leaving hundreds of passengers stuck in airports.Grimsvom is one of the largest and most active volcanoes in Europe. What makes Grimsvom different is that it lies under a huge glacier(冰川) of ice up to 12 meters thick. The hot volcano heats up the ice above it, which then forms a layer(层)of water between the glacier and the volcano.This layer of water puts pressure on the volcano, keeping it stable. As the water flows out from under the glacier, the pressure lifts. The lava(岩浆) from the volcano then comes up to the surface. This is exactly what happened today.Now, airlines have to make changes to their flights so as not to fly through the clouds of volcanic ash. According to KLM，one of Europe's biggest airlines, airplanes cannot go under the cloud or over it. Going through the cloud can result in ash getting stuck in the airplane's engines,causing damage to the plane.The eruption has also caused problems for animals in Iceland. The volcano left ash and sharp glasslike rocks all over the countryside. Farmers are keeping their animals inside to stop them from eating ashcovered grass or the sharp object.11．What makes Grimsvom different from other volcanoes?A．It is below ice.B．It lies under the sea.C．It is the largest volcano.D．Its lava affects the airlines.12．What keeps Grimsvom still?A．The slow flow of water.B．The low water temperature.C．The thick glacier.D．The water pressure.13．Which of the following is the result of the volcanic eruption?A．People stop traveling in Europe.B．Airlines suffer from the loss of planes.C．It becomes dangerous for animals to eat outside.D．Farmers have lost many of their animals.14．This text is most probably taken from________.A．a research paper B．a newspaper reportC．a class presentation D．a geography textbookⅢ.完成句子阅读下列各小题，根据每句后的汉语提示，用句末括号内的英语单词完成句子。

课时作业 30Ⅰ.阅读理解(2019·银川一中高三模拟)During lunch all my friends were talking about their families' plans for winter break, and I was a little jealous since my parents couldn't take a vacation during Christmas week.I came home from school that day to find a newsletter from the Jewish Community Center, which contained an ad for an “alternative vacation” communityservice trip to New Orleans during Christmas week. I wondered whether cleaning neighborhoods destroyed by Hurricane Katrina and sleeping on the floor in a sleeping bag were really the way I wanted to spend Christmas vacation. I sent in an application anyway, went for an interview, and was actually very excited when I was accepted into the program.We arrived in New Orleans on December 23. First, we had dinner at a pizza place that had been destroyed by the hurricane. The owners told us about what they had gone through to rebuild their homes.On Christmas Eve, we spent the day removing garbage as part of a beautification project in the Lower Ninth Ward, which was most heavily damaged by Hurricane Katrina.On Christmas Day, we worked at a center for homeless people. The people really appreciated our work, and we felt like we had made Christmas a little more special for them. My favorite project was helping at an animal rescue center. We walked the animals, cleaned their places, and fed them. Six thousand dogs and cats, separated from their owners, were rescued by that shelter after the hurricane.When I returned to New York and told my friends about my trip, I realized how ridiculous I had been to be jealous of their Christmas plans. I looked around at my house, my dog, my family and everything I owned and felt really spoiled. All the things I saw in New Orleans, all the amazing people I met and the small ways l was able to contribute to the rebuilding of the city made that week the most memorable vacation I can imagine.本文是一篇故事，讲述的是作者去飓风灾区过了一个不同寻常的圣诞节假期的故事。

A businessman named Milton Levine did.He created the Uncle Milton Ant Farm more than half a century ago.Today，grandchildren of the first ant colony owners are watching ants working hard on the ton Levine was not trained in the study of insects，also known as entomology.But he knew a lot about ants，and he designed an appealing way to share his knowledge.Mr.Levine began his career as a maker of unusual toys after World War Ⅱ.He had retur ned to his birthplace in Pittsburgh，Pennsylvania，after serving in the United States military.He got the idea for his future career from a business newsletter，which suggested that the best chances for jobs at the time were in toys.He decided to make toys.They understood that American society was about to change.The huge population increase known as the Baby Boom was beginning.There would be a huge demand for children’s toys.One day，he saw ants parading around a swimming pool.The sight made Mr.Levine remember how much he had liked watching ants as a boy on his uncle’s farm.Those thoughts gave him the idea for the Uncle Milton Ant Farm.Milton Levine developed a narrow，green plastic container.The top looked like a farm，showing a farmhouse，a barn，a bridge and a windmill (风车)．Under those images was a divider that separated theants’underground and aboveground areas.Under that was the sand where people could watch the ants digging passageways.The first Uncle Milton Ant Farms were an immediate success.They were sold in 1956.Two years later，two million of the educational toys had been sold.Through the years the toys continued to attract antwatchers.People buy Uncle Milton Ant Farms from stores and order from websites.During his life，Mr.Levine saw the sale of more than twenty million of his ant colonies.The Uncle Milton Ant Farm tells far more than how to care for the ants.For example，people receiving an Uncle Milton Ant Farm learn that the little insects are strong.Some can carry loads fifty times heavier than they are.A writer remembers owning an Uncle Milton Ant Farm when he was about five years old.He says he became very good at numbers by counting the ants.5．Which of the following words can best describe Milton Levine?A．Strong. B．Creative.C．Loyal. D．Humorous.6．________may be studied in the science of entomology.A．Roses B．ButterfliesC．Tigers D．Sharks7．Milton Levine got his idea from the following EXCEPT________.A．a business newsletterB．the Baby BoomC．ants paradingD．a farmhouse8．What is the main idea of the last paragraph?A．How to care for the ants.B．Ants are strong and diligent.C．The Uncle Milton Ant Farm is more than a toy.D．The Uncle Milton Ant Farm is very popular.Ⅲ.短文改错I’m middle school student，I like to make friend with people and always try my best to get along with them.And last week I happened to hear one of my classmate speaking ill of me with others behind my back，it made me very sad.She said what I was fat and acted as stupid as a bear.I had been kind to her，but why did she laughed at my appearance?

According to Layla，the leader of the group is the five-month-old tiger Bella，who controls everything including trying to get the biggest share during mealtimes.The lions—Delano，Romeo and Maximus who are also five months old，are surprisingly shy.As for six-month-oldMilika，the hyena？She is the naughty and noisy one，always ready to pick a fight with her temporary friends.Temporary，because this group will not last forever.Within about two years，as soon as the animals turn into dangerous predators，they will be given their own living places.But it is thanks to this unusual relationship that they will be able to see that day，because none of them would have been able to survive alone in the wild.What would be interesting to observe is their relationship if they ever meet each other in the wild.Will they compete with each other as fiercely for the same prey as they normally do or，will they remember the fact that they were once friends and share their kill?1．The third paragraph is mainly about the baby animals________.A．names B．charactersC．happy life D．living habits2．The animals will be separated in the future mainly because________.A．it will be too dangerous for them to live togetherB．their big sizes won’t allow them to stay togetherC．they will have to find their own preyD．they will have to live in the wild3．From the text we can learn that________.A．Milika is the leader of the special groupB．the five animals can not survive in the wild right nowC．the animals will compete with each other for the same foodD．Layla raised the animals immediately after they were abandoned4．What would be the best title for the text?A．No longer competitors B．Hello，lovely animalsC．Unusual friendship D．Fierce animals?Ⅱ.七选五People living in the country enjoy several advantages that people living in the city cannot enjoy.__1__They make friends with trees and stones.They breathe fresh air.They fight with strong winds.__2__This contact with nature is good for health.There are many diseases that are common in the city，but are not to be found in the country.For example，near-sightedness is almost unknown to country people.Because of the absence of cars，one can walk more freely in the country than in the city，__3__People living in the country can easily get fresh vegetables，fresh fruit and fresh milk，and they get them at lower prices than in the city.__4__There are practically no temptations to waste money.__5__They say what they mean，and make and keep promises with sincerity.They do not put on air (摆架子)．They do not pretend to have those ridiculous manners which are necessary in what we call polite society.A．They listen to the song of birds.B．Country people are mostly honest.C．They are in close contact with nature.D．Country people are far from town life.E．Country life is economical in other ways，too.F．Country life provides much more enjoyment.G．There are no rules of the road nor traffic signs to obey.Ⅲ.书面表达你校的外教Richard打算假期去杭州游玩。

Since you've been away, has this country changed for the better—or for the worse?If you've just arrived back in the UK after a fortnight's holiday, small changes have probably surprised you—anything from a local greengrocer suddenly being replaced by a mobilephone shop to someone in your street moving house.So how have things changed to people coming back to Britain after seven, ten or even 15 years living abroad? What changes in society can they see that the rest of us have hardly noticed—or now take for granted? To find out, we asked some people who recently returned.Debi: When we left, Cheltenham, my home town, was a town of white,middleclass families—all very conservative(保守的). The town is now home to many eastern Europeans and lots of Australians, who come here mainly to work in hotels and tourism. There are even several shops only for foreigners.Having been an immigrant(移民) myself, I admire people who go overseas to find a job. Maybe if I lived in an inner city where unemployment was high, I'd think differently, but I believe foreign settlers have improved this country because they're more openminded and often work harder than the natives.Christine: As we flew home over Britain, both of us remarked how green everything looked. But the differences between the place we'd left behind and the one we returned to were brought sharply into focus as soon as we landed.To see policemen with guns in the airport for the first time was frightening—in Cyprus, they're very relaxed—and I got pulled over by customs officers just for taking a woolen sweater with s ome metalmade buttons out of my case in the arrivals hall. Everyone seemed to be on guard. Even the airportcarhire firm wanted a credit card rather than cash because they said their vehicles had been used by bank robbers.But anyway, this is still a green, beautiful country. I just wish more people would appreciate what they've got.16．After a short overseas holiday, people tend to ________．A．notice small changesB．expect small changesC．welcome small changesD．exaggerate small changes17．How does Debi look at the foreign settlers?A．Cautiously. B．Positively.C．Sceptically. D．Critically.18．When arriving at the airport in Britain, Christine was shocked by________．A．the relaxed policemen B．the messy arrivals hallC．the tight security D．the bank robbers19．Which might be the best title for the passage?A．Life in Britain. B．Back in Britain.C．Britain in Future. D．Britain in Memory.BCan you imagine living in a house built by recycled waste?Texas home builder Dan Phillips transforms trash into artful treasures,creating beautiful floors with wood pieces, kitchen counters from ivo rycolored bones and roofs out of license plates(牌照)．The fantastic houses which spring from his imagination are made almostentirely of materials which would otherwise have ended up in a garbage area.“People have been doing this for hundreds of thousands of years; using whatever is available to build shelter，” Phillips said，“If you think about carefully what could be used, then building materials are everywhere.”The thirteen homes he has built so far would fit better in an art museum than the residential streets of Huntsville, a conservative town of about 35，000 people.Living in these houses is a bit like living in a roadside attraction.“Almost every day, somebody knocks on the door and says ‘Is there any way that we could see？’”said Edie Wells, an artis t who rents a room in the Bone House.Her home features a stairway made of bones, floors covered in wine corks(软木塞) and beer bottle caps.Wells said visitors are most impressed when they see a bathroom withits walls, floor and ceiling entirely covered with broken mirror pieces.In addition, each house is highly energyefficient with plenty ofinsulation(隔热材料), an ondemand solar hot water heater and a system that can collect and recycle rainwater to clean the toilet and wash clothes.Phillips founded Phoenix Commotion 12 years ago with the aim of creating a new model for sustainable housing.For as little as $10，000 it builds affordable homes for single parents, lowincome families and artists.The company has used hundreds of tons of construction waste by recycling the materials into habitable buildings.Phillips tries to spread his recycledhouse idea by speaking at events across the United States, and by using the Internet to reach out to likeminded individuals.Phillips said, “I'm not going to be saving the world anytime soon.But there needs to be at least some visibility for this model in this century.”20．Which of the following is NOT the advantage of the homes built by Phillips?A．Environmentallyfriendly. B．Energyefficient.C．Convenient. D．Cheap.21．What do we know about Dan Phillips?A．He is serious and hardworking.B．He is full of imagination and intelligence.C．It didn't take him long to build the houses.D．He didn't give speeches in the United States.22．According to the passage, the houses are like artful treasures because they are ________．A．made of bones B．museumsC．admired by people D．made of various trash23．Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?A．Home Builder Dan PhillipsB．Green HomesC．Home Builder Dan Phillips Turns Trash into Green HomesD．A Home Builder' s LifeⅢ.书面表达假设你叫张林，你的英国朋友Andrew下月要来你校学习两个月。
