人教版高中英语必修一Unit 1 单元测试题 1(含答案)

Unit 1 单元测试题第二部分:阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。

A21. What’s worrying Anna?A. Her friend keeps telling lies.B. Her friend is not interesting.C. Her friend does not believe her.D. Her friend reads her terrible stories.22. Dani suggests that Tom _____.A. leave his two friendsB. tell his friends his thoughtsC. go on an outing with one of his friendsD. invite another to join his group of friends23. Whose friend has a big mouth?A. Tom.B. Mary.C. Anna.D. Daisy.24. The underlined word “teasing” in the last paragraph probably means “_____”.A. avoidingB. hatingC. making fun ofD. taking pity onBOn my first day of high school, I asked an eleventh-grader where my class was. And he told me it was “on the fourth floor, next to the pool.” I found out five minutes later th at we don’t even have a fourth floor and there’s no pool either! Besides that, I didn’t have any trouble with the older kid.I think the biggest difference between middle and high school is the homework load (工作量) and size of the school. I went from maybe fifteen minutes of homework a night to several hours, so I had to learn how to make full use of time! Our class size is around 550, but joining in clubs, sports, music, and other activities at school makes it easier to get to know people in every grade.The best advice I can give about the years you spend in high school is to learn things for yourself, not just to get a good grade. There have been so many tests that I’ve prepared for the night before, gotten an A, and not remembered anything later. I’ve changed that this year, and I enjoy school so much more. Don’t take easy classes just to have a simple year. If you have a choice between chemistry and sports, the first will prove to be a lot more useful!While drinking and smoking might be present i n some middle schools, they’re also around in high school. I have a lot of friends who promised they’d never drink or smoke, but are now partying every weekend. If you have “fun” and spend your nights wasted instead of studying, you will regret it when you’re applying for (申请) college. The “friends” who say you’re a loser for not partying are really not your friends at all. It’s hard to see your closest friends grow apart and go in different directions, but don’t follow their footsteps. Create your own path in life and make your own decisions.25. What happened to the author on his first day of high school?A. He had a fight with an eleventh-grader.B. He fell into a pool on the fourth floor.C. He was five minutes late for class.D. He was fooled by a schoolboy.26. The author advises high school students to _____.A. give up sportsB. choose useful classesC. try their best to get good gradesD. get ready for tests the night before27. The last paragraph mainly tells us _____.A. about the trouble caused by drinking and smokingB. about the importance of making friendsC. not to go to any party in high schoolD. not to lose ourselves in high schoolCIn the book The Best Little Girl in the World, Kessa has a serious eating disorder (进食障碍) called anorexia nervosa. But she is not alone. Many people have this eating disorder.In the beginning of her story, Kessa is a normal 15-year-old. She is good at many things, especially dancing. She has danced for many years and loves it. One day her dance teacher tells her to continue eating right, but maybe lose a few pounds. Once Kessa hears this, she takes things too far. Instead of cutting down on snacks and junk food, she decides not to eat at all. She does not eat breakfast, lunch, or dinner. She begins losing weight and becomes slimmer (更加苗条的) and slimmer. But she loses weight to a point where she is unhealthy.As her poor eating habits continue, her parents start getting as much help as possible to cure (治疗) their beautiful daughter. But it is just as hard for Kess a’s parents to deal with her disorder as it is for her. Everyday she exercises to lose more pounds and plans what and when she will eat. Her parents try everything, but Kessa decides not to have any fat on her body.Kessa’s doctor and parents finally take her to the hospital. She is now so thin that she can hardly walk. There, she is given good care.In the rest of the book, Kessa goes through a lot of trouble in order to cure her eating disorder. This book, I think, can help to prevent people from doing this to themselves. It shows the trouble that people go through just to be slimmer, and all theterrible things they must experience to be cured. It is a book I think every teenager should read.28. What does Kessa do to lose weight?A. She stops eating.B. She eats less junk food.C. She has three small meals a day.D. She dances many more hours a day.29. What do we know about Kessa’s eating disorder?A. It is caused by her dance teacher.B. It’s too serious to be cured.C. It makes her suffer a lot.D. It’s an unusual illness.30. The book mentioned in the text is mainly about _____.A. how to cure eating disordersB. the importance of eating rightC. a girl’s fight against an eating problemD. why so many people have eating disordersDTime for Kids (TFK) gets the great news on the coolest toys for 2014 at the 111th American International Toy Fair.What’s four days long, bigger than seven football fields, and filled with thousands of toys? It’s Toy Fair 2014!Each year, hundreds of toy companies from across the country come together in New York City. All kinds of products are shown as a way to know what’s to come in the new year. This year’s trends (款式) include oversize toys. “In 2014, everything is really big and really out there,” says Adrienne Appell, a toy-trends expert.Toy Fair is the largest toy trade show in the Western Hemisphere (西半球). Toy-store buyers go to the event to decide which toys they may want to sell during the holiday season. Members of the media, like TFK, go to the fair to report back on all the cool trends. Unfortunately, Toy Fair is not open to the public.This year’s Toy Fair was the biggest in its 111-year history. More than 1,000 toy companies showed products from simple card games to high-tech robots. “Larger Than Life” was a Toy Fair favorite. This trend is all about big toys with a big play value.Though it is all fun and games at Toy Fair, we saw lots of products making a push towards education, with STEAM. That stands for science, technology, engineering, art, and math. This trend includes word games. And of course, we saw some super cool, high-tech games. “Technology is always going to influence toys,” says Appell. “This year we saw lots of 3D games, and robots.”To know more information about the event, click (点击) here to watch the video.31.

Examples including automated weaving machines, ATMs , production-line welders( 焊接工 )and phoneanswering systems. It might seem that these advances would simply throw people out of work .But look at the example of the weaving machines. They increased productivity 50-fold and dropped the price of cloth by 98 percent.The demand for cloth exploded as the price fell,thus creating more weaver jobs. In the years between 1830 and 1900 , the number of weaver jobsincreased 4-fold despite automation .Automation increased demand for weavers ,but also changedthe nature of the weaver.’Asimilarjob process happened with ATMs,which didn’ t remove theneed for human tellers ,whose numbers actually have risen since A TMs were introduced in the1970s.The intelligent response is for the public and private sectors to create worker training programs toteach new skills that will be required despite the spread of automation . This will require allinvestment in on-the-job training and lifelong learning .8. What can we know about AI from Paragraph 1?A . It has a history of no more than 10 years .B. It leaves many people worrying about job loss .C. It is already too advanced to be further improved .D. It is unable to learn or solve problems like humans .9. What does the author say about automation in Paragraph 2?A . It will surely reduce job chances for humans .B. It will certainly help improve productivity.C. It wi11 enable machines to enslave humans .D. It will eventually take the place of all human labor.10. What is the author’ s mainepurposoflisting the examples in Paragraph 3?A . To tell us how to expand the job market to cut costs .B. To explain why certain jobs suffer greatly from automation .C. To show what is the best way to have productivity improved .D. To prove automation doesn ’ssarilytnecemake humans jobless.11. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A . How AI will develop in the futureB. How AI will transform the job marketC. How man will benefit from automationD. How man will survive in the age of automationDThere is a change of attitude toward the pink and blue divide in toys. Target, the second-largestdiscount retailer ( 折扣零售店 ) in the US, announced in 2015 that it would get rid of signs labelingtoys for boys or for girls. A UK campaign called Let Toys Be Toys seeks to get retailers to stopdividing toys and books for one gender ( 性别 ) only.Researchers have worried about the effect of having toys that were so segregated ( 分开的 ) bygender for some time, says Lisa Dinella, associate professor at Monmouth University.Clearly divided pink and blue toys—with dolls and tea sets on one side and trucks andbuilding blocks on the other — are actually a pretty recent development. As recently as the 1970s,toys sold in the US were not always marketed with clear gender distinctions. By the 1980s and1990s, however, toys started to become more gender segregated, though it was still not so sharplydivided as today, says Elizabeth Sweet, a lecturer in sociology at the University of California,Davis.While it may seem like a small issue, toys help children to develop new skills, says Dinella.Dolls and pretend kitchens are good at teaching kids early language skills. Building blocks likeLego and puzzles teach skills related to space, which help set the groundwork for learning math.” says Dinella. “ Both genders lose out if we put kids on one track and they can't explore,Some parents try to introduce other types of toys and get away from the strictly pink and bluedivide. But it's difficult for parents to ignore the marketing and get their kids toys or costumes meantfor the other gender, says Dinella. While some parents try to broaden the toys their children areexposed to, there is often a social cost to the child for crossing gender boundaries. So it ishard for parents to throw out the rules,” she says.Researchers hope that one day, toys will stop being broken up by gender and will instead becategorized (分类 ) by type, like puzzle toys, dolls or children's bikes. Toy choices, Sweet says,should be based on kids' personal interests, and not on their gender.12. What trend is described in the first paragraph?A. Offering different toys to boys and girls.B.
