BWhen I was eleven, my parents gave me the first book I ever owned —The Tales of Edgar Allan Poe.It was written by the famous novelist Edgar Allan Poe.I clearly remember opening it, reading the first lines of the book, and saying to myself, “So this is what reading is！” I was delighted.Little did I know at the time that I was at the beginning of a lifelong journey.So, if I read my first real book at the age of eleven, what was I readingbefore then？In a word, these books are relatively plotless (没有情节的) andrepetitive, and they attempt to teach children to recognize letters and theirsounds and to build their vocabulary.But I still had no idea what writingwas.In Poe's stories, the sentences were more complex and stylish than anything I had ever read before.Poe, in short, was a start.My parents gave me that first book, but then I searched for other books.I liked science, which led me to discover Jules Verne and H．G.Wells.Other writers followed in quick one after another, Isaac Asimov, Ray Bradbury, and Arthur C．Clarke.But I didn't limit myself to science fiction.Other books that deeply impressed me, and which I have carried on my life's journey, include: The Yearling, Shane, I v anhoe, Of Mice and Men, To Kill a Mockingbird, and The Good Earth.It went on from there.I became that kid who, long after his parents turned the lights off, hid under the covers with a flashlight, a book, and his greatest fear of being discovered and having his flashlight taken away.I realized that my parents must have known I was defying them.But in their wisdom they pretended to ignore it.And so I owe my start as a reader to my parents.语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。

Unit 4 Wildlife protection阅读理解·组块专练——练速度(限时：35 分钟)Ⅰ. 阅读理解A(2020 ·洛阳高三第一次月考)I find it humorous sometimes that even themost ordinary incidents can have an impact on our awareness.My wife, daughter, and I moved into our home nine years agoand we spent a lot of time and energy in the yard to get it looking likeit does today. We live on a corner, higher than streetlevel, and the entire side of the yard is surrounded by a professionally built rock wall. The front of the housethough is another story because instead of a wall along the sidewalk, therocks appear to be just thrown up onto the dirt as if someonewere in a hurry to finish.We did the best we could with what we had to work with and called thisarea our “rock garden”. Whenever we had leftover fl owers or plants,Denise or I would stick them out front, just to bring some color to the area.Last summer I had reached the end of the rock garden and found a tinylittle plant that I could not immediately identify. I knew I didn’t plant it and Denise claimed that she didn ’t either. Wedecided to let it continue growing until we could figure out what it was.Weeks passed and as I made my way back to the mystery plant, it appeared to be a Sunflower. It had a tall skinny stalk (茎) and only one head on it.I decided to baby_it_along and weed around it. As I pulled rocks from thearea to get to the weeds, I noticed something unusual. The Sunflower had notstarted where I saw the stalk begin. It actually had begun under a bigrock and grown under and around it to reach the sun.That ’ s when I realized that if a tiny little Sunflower didn ’t let a big rock stand in its way of developing, we too have the ability to do thesamething. Webelieve in ourselves like that little Sunflower, we can attain the same food and nutrition as well.Stand tall like the Sunflower and be proud of who and what you are andthe environment will begin to support you. You will find a way to go underor around your big obstacle (阻碍) in order to reach your desires.语篇解读：本文为夹叙夹议文。

The Frilled Lizards frill normally hangs around its neck, and is made out of a flap of skin. When threatened the Frilled Lizard will raise its frill making it seen more dangerous.BandicootThere are several species of Bandicoot around Australia, and although occasionally they can be seen during the day, they are generally nocturnal. Bandicoots are small creatures only about the size of a rat and eat small insects and plants. Several of the Bandicoots around Australia include the Eastern Barred Bandicoot, which is now rare around Australia and the Southern Brown Bandicoot found in eastern and western parts of Australia.KoalaKoalas are small bear­like creatures that live along the east coast of Australia, with their habitat amongst(在……之中) the famous Eucalyptus trees. However, koalas only like to eat a small percentage of the Eucalyptus trees found around Australia. Koalas have hard black noses, with sharp claws and a thick furry coat and can grow to a weight of about 10kg. Most of their time is spent asleep in the trees, which is the best place to see a koala.DingoDingoes are found in various areas across Australia, and unlike domestic dogs they do not bark. Instead,the Dingo makes a howling sound that is very particular. Dingoes generally eat mice, rabbits and rats, although sometimes they can also attack livestock when hungry.1.When in danger the Frilled Lizard will raise its frill to ________.A.look more beautifulB.make itself comfortableC.frighten its enemyD.attract the opposite sex2.What does the underlined word “nocturnal” mean in the passage?A.Dangerous when attacked.B.Active at night.C.Small in size.D.Gentle in the daytime.3.According to the passage, which animal likes resting in the tree?A.Frilled Lizard.B.Dingo.C.Bandicoot.D.Koala.参考答案：1.C; 2.B; 3.D解析：1.[细节理解题。

My next-door neighbor and fellow mother, Christie, and I were out in our front yards, watching seven children of age 6 and underride their bikes up and down. “I wish I could take one of my children out alone, ”said Christie.Then we worked out a plan: When Christie takes one of her children out, I’ll watch her other three. And when she watches two of mine, I’ll take someone out.The children were extremely quick to accept the ideaof“Mommy and Me”time. Christie’s daughter, McKe nzie, went first. When she returned, the other children showered her with tons of questions. McKenzie was smiling broadly. Christie looked refreshed and happy. “She’s like a different child when there’s no one elsearound, ”Christie shared with me quietly. With her mother all to herself, McKenzie didn’t have to make an effort to gain attention.Just as Christie had noticed changes in McKenzie, I also discovered something different in each of my children during our alone time. For example, I am always surprised when my daughter, who is seldom close to me, holds my handfrequently. My stuttering(口吃)son, Tom, doesn’t stutter once during our activities since he doesn’t have to struggle for a chance to speak.

考点规范练9(必修2Unit4)Ⅰ.阅读理解(2017·全国Ⅰ)I work with Volunteers for Wildlife,a rescue and education organization at Bailey Arboretum in Locust Valley.Trying to help injured,displaced or sick creatures can be heartbreaking;survival is never certain.However,when it works,it is simply beautiful.I got a rescue call from a woman in Muttontown.She had found a young owl(猫头鹰) on the ground.When I arrived,I saw a 2-to 3-week-old owl.It had already been placed in a carrier for safety.I examined the chick(雏鸟) and it seemed fine.If I could locate the nest,I might have been able to put it back,but no luck.My next work was to construct a nest and anchor it in a tree.The homeowner was very helpful.A wire basket was found.I put some pine branches into the basket to make this nest safe and comfortable.I placed the chick in the nest,and it quickly calmed down.Now all that was needed were the parents,but they were absent.I gave the homeowner a recording of the hunger screams of owl chicks.These advertise the presence of chicks to adults;they might also encourage our chick to start calling as well.I gave the owner as much information as possible and headed home to see what news the night might bring.A nervous night to be sure,but sometimes the spirits of nature smile on us all!The homeowner called to say that the parents had responded to the recordings.I drove over and saw the chick in the nest looking healthy and active.And it was accompanied in the nest by the greatest sight of all — LUNCH!The parents had done their duty and would probably continue to do so.1.What is unavoidable in the author’s rescue work according to paragraph 1?A.Efforts made in vain.B.Getting injured in his work.C.Feeling uncertain about his future.D.Creatures forced out of their homes.2.Why was the author called to Muttontown?A.To rescue a woman.B.To take care of a woman.C.To look at a baby owl.D.To cure a young owl.3.What made the chick calm down?A.A new nest.B.Some food.C.A recording.D.Its parents.4.How would the author feel about the outcome of the event?A.It’s unexpected.B.It’s beautiful.C.It’s humorous.D.It’s discouraging.Ⅱ.完形填空In the wild,it often comes down to predator and prey(捕食者与猎物),the hunter and the hunted.Most animals want to stay 1.They have developed ways of adapting to 2habitats,and hiding or escaping from those who would like to 3 them.So how do they do that?One very helpful adaptation is called camouflage(伪装).You may have been 4by an animal that was using camouflage in the past.It looked so similar to its surroundings that you nearly 5 seeing it at all.Its colouring,markings,or other physical features resemble its 6so much that you can look directly at it without 7 it at first.This is often good enough to fool a predator that is scanning an area to look for 8.This helps prey to 9 from its predator.But did you know that it often works the other way around,too?Predators can use camouflage to 10 their prey.If a predator wants to eat a certain animal,and that animal cannot see it lying in 11,it can catch its prey 12,swallowing it before it even knows what is happening.Another popular adaptation is mimicry(拟态).Mimicry is when an animal has markings or other 13 characteristics that allow it to look like some other kind of animal or plant.If it can make its predators 14that it is something that preys on them,or would at least be difficult or 15 to catch,its predator will often go off in search of a(n) 16 target.Sometimes animals are able to 17 when their habitat changes because they adapt to the new conditions.For example,birds that were accustomed to nesting in tall 18 have survived industrialization of their habitat by learning to nest in the narrow openings of tall buildings.Raccoons(浣熊) easily adapt to residential areas that have 19 their woodland homes.They often help themselves to any food they can get,such as food in trash cans,or 20 inside people’s homes!1.A.warm B.aliveC.activeD.youngfortable

Ⅰ.阅读理解Do you want to improve your memory？Are you struggling to remember names and faces as you get older？Try picking up the phone and speaking to someone.Scientists have found that holding a simple conversation could be just as effective as playing popula r ‘braintraining’ games that have reproduced a multimillion pound industry.Researchers compared 36 studies on memory exercises performed between 1970 and 2007.Some studies suggested both healthy older adults and those with mild cognitive impairment (轻度认知缺陷)could remember words better after some memory training.However，other studies found this improvement was matched by those who were asked to hold a discussion about art.The finding that social interaction could be just as effective at keeping memory loss at bay comes after Age Concern warned more than a million people aged over 65 lived alone in their own homes.The charity warned solitary lifestyles were a ‘silent epidemic (静默的流行病)’spreading through the nation quickly.Dr Martin said most people experienced a cognitive decline in old age.This can include memory loss and inability to plan，pay close attention or perform tasks as quickly as before.The normal rate of decline seems to speed up in some people，leading to a condition called mild cognitive impairment，which some researchers see as a reason for developing mental diseases later in life.Although several studies have suggested that braintraining exercises could delay signs of cognitive decline，the studies and the types of training have many different kinds.The findings do not mean that longer，more intense or different exercises might not be effective，but that those which have been reported thus far have only limited effect.Dr Martin concluded researchers needed to improve the way they used their studies to eventually determine ways of preventing cognitive decline in old age.1．What is the main idea of Paragraph 1?A．People should play more ‘braintraining’ games.B．Training has a great effect on our health.C．Having a conversation can improve memoryD．People have no ways to improve memory【解析】段落大意题。

to build us up ortear us down.It doesn’t matter if the words come fromsomeone else or ourselves—the positive and negativeeffects are lasting.We all talk to ourselves sometimes.We’re usually too embarrassed to admit it，though.But we really shouldn’t be，because more and more experts believe talking to ourselves is a healthy habit.This “selftalk” helps us motivate(激发) ourselves，remember things，solve problems and calm ourselves down.Be aware，though，that as much as 77% of selftalk tends to be negative.So in order to stay positive，we should only speak words of encouragement to ourselves.We should also be quick to give_ourselves_a_pat_on_the_back.The next time you finish a project，do well on a test，or finally clean your room，join me in saying，“Good job！”Often，words came out of our mouths without us thinking about the effects they will have；but we should be aware that our words will cause certain responses to others.For example，when returning an item to a store，we might use warm，friendly language during the exchange.And the clerk will probably respond in a similar manner.Or we can use harsh (苛刻的)，critical language，which will most likely cause the clerk to be defensive.Words possess power because of their lasting effects.Many of us regret something we once said.And we remember unkind words said to us！Before speaking，we should always ask ourselves：Is it true？Is it loving？Is it needed？If what we want to say doesn’t pass this test，then it’s better left unsaid.Words possess power：both positive and negative.Those around us receive encouragement when we speak positively.We can offer hope，build selfes teem(自尊) and motivate others to do their best.Negative words destroy all those things.Will we use our words to hurt or to heal？The choice is ours.36．The author argues in the first paragraph that ________.A．words will never hurt us at allB．words have lasting effects on usC．inspiring words give us confidenceD．negative words may let us down37．Why should not we feel embarrassed when it comes to talking to ourselves?A．Talking to ourselves is believed to be good for our health.B．Almost everybody has the habit of talking to oneself.C．Talking to ourselves helps us to solve all the problems.D．It is harmful to have “selftalk” when we are alone.38．The underlined phrase “give ourselves a pat on the back” in Paragraph 3 means “________”．A．blame ourselvesB．punish ourselvesC．talk to ourselvesD．praise ourselves39．Which of the following statements would the author agree to?A．Unkind words are unlikely to be forgotten.B．Positive words may destroy all the good relations.C．It is better to think twice before talking to others.D．Kind words are sure to cause unfavorable responses.40．Why should we talk in a friendly way when returning an item to a store? A．Because kind words destroy true relationships.B．Because the clerk in a store is hard to deal with.C．Because critical language may hurt your feelings.D．Because friendly words cause positive responses.1.B2.C3.C4.A5.B6.D7.C8.A9.C 10.B 11.C 12.C 13.B 14.A15.A16.C 17.B 18.A 19.D 20.B 21.C 22.D 23.C 24.B 25.A 26.B 27.C 28.B 29.A 30.D 31.B 32.D 33.C 34.B 35.A36.B 37.A 38.D 39.C 40.D。
