Unit 1 Women of achievement课时作业reading阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）AZinc Can Cut Colds ShortZinc isn't the cure for the common cold, butmounting evidence indicates it can be a bighelp. An analysis of three randomisedcontrolled trials found that 15 per cent ofpatients who had taken zinc acetatelozenges(80 to 92 mg per day)within 24hours of noticing cold symptoms hadrecovered on the fifth day, compared with 27per cent of patients who had received aplacebo. While that dosage is higher than thedaily recommended amount, no serious sideeffects were observed. Be sure your zinclozenge doesn't also contain citric acid(柠檬酸),which can make it less effective.Dairy Helps Fight Early MenopauseCalcium and vitamin D have long been knownscientists have discovered that they may also play a role in preventing early menopause(which is associated with an increased risk of osteoporosis, heart disease and other health issues. In a study of 116,430 premenopausal women,from food-especially dairy-had the lowest riskany beneficial effect, perhaps because they lack the other vitamins, fats and hormones(such as progesterone and oestrogen)found in dairy.1. Which of the following is True according to the passage?A. Zinc can help treat any common cold effectively.B. Despite time participants spent watching TV, their test scores are still high.C. Language lessons are beneficial to mental activity.D. Calcium is more functional than vitamin D in curing menopause.2. What's the main purpose of the passage?A. To sell some medicines to the customers.B. To inform readers of some pieces of medical news.C. To offer some statistics about scientific researches.D. To promote some products about milk.BAirborne dust is normally seen as an environmental problem, but the lack of it is making air pollution over China considerably worse.A new study suggests less dust means more solar radiation hits the land surface, which reduces wind speed. That lack of wind in turn leads to an accumulation of air pollution over heavily populated parts of China. The researchers found that reduced dust levels cause a 13% increase in human-made pollution in the region.Hundreds of millions of people across China continue to be impacted by air pollution from factories and coal-fired power plants. Studies suggest that the dirty air contributes to 1.6 million deaths a year, about 17% of all mortalities. But this new research says that the human-induced pollution is being made worse or better by naturally occurring dust that blows in from the Gobi desert. Using models to simulate 150 years of wind and dust patterns in the region, the researchers found that the dust deflects significant amounts of sunlight. Without it, more heat from the Sun hits the land. Differences in the temperatures between land and sea cause the winds to blow. Without the dust, the land warms up more and that changes the temperature differential with the sea leading to weaker breezes - and more air pollution."There are two dust sources. One is the Gobi and the other is the highlands of north-west China, but we found the Gobi had much more influence," said lead author Yang Yang, from the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory in Washington State, US. "Less dust in the atmosphere causes more solar radiation to reach the surface. It weakens the temperature difference between the land and the sea and impacts the circulation of the winds and causes a stagnation over eastern China and that causes an accumulation of air pollution."Another study has recently shown a link between declining Arctic sea ice and a major air pollution event in China in 2013. The authors of the new study believe that both theories could be true."Our study has the same mechanism: the weakening of winds causes more pollution, and what is behind this needs to be studied," said Yang Yang, "We have two views on this kind of weakening of wind. They found the sea ice, we found the dust-wind interaction can also lead to weakening of the wind. I think both of them are important."The researchers believe that the study may inform broader questions about how natural andhuman-created aerosols interact.Many parts of the world, in addition to China, are now suffering from increased levels of air pollution and understanding how dust, winds and emissions work together may help limit some of the worst impacts of dirty air.One of the key lessons from this study is that the absence of dusty conditions could mean the air you are breathing is worse for you, not better.3. According to the new study, the formation of air pollution over heavily populated parts of China is due to ________.A. the accumulation of dustB. the lack of temperatureC. the high level of living standardsD. the shortage of wind4. What’s the right sequence of cause and effect leading to the air pollution?①the worse circulation of the winds②more heat from the sun③lessening temperature between the land and the sea④less dust⑤a worse stagnationA. ④①③②⑤B. ①④②⑤③C.④②③①⑤D. ①⑤②④③5. What can be inferred from the passage?A. Millions of people die of diseases caused by dirty air every year in China.B. The theory of the consequences caused by declining Arctic sea ice is less scientific.C. The new study must invite questions about how natural and human-created aerosols interact.D. The absence of dusty conditions means a more healthier environment.CIT is fashionable to say that tech firms will conquer the financial services industry. Yet in the case of Apple, it seems that the opposite is happening and finance is taking over tech by stealth(悄然). Since the death of Steve Jobs, its co-founder, in 2011, the world’s biggest firm by market value has sold hundreds of millions of phones with bionic chips (仿生芯片)and know-it-all digital assistants. But it has also grown a financial operation that is already, on some measures, roughly half the size of Goldman Sachs.Apple does not organize its financial activities into one subsidiary, but Schumpeter has lumped them together. The result—call it “Apple Capital”—has $262bn of assets, $108bn of debt, and has traded $1.6trn of securities since 2011. It appears to be run fairly cautiously and is part of a thriving firm, but it still deserves scrutiny. Companies have a history of being hurt by their financial arms; think General Electric (GE) or General Motors (GM).Apple Capital has lots of responsibilities b ut three stand out. It invests the firm’s mountain of surplus profits, mainly in “highly rated” instruments (this task seems to fall to Braeburn Capital, a subsidiary in Nevada, which uses some external fund managers). Apple Capital also uses derivatives (衍生品)in order to protect the firm against currency and interest-rate gyrations. And itmanages America’s fifth-biggest corporate-debt pile by issuing Apple bonds as part of an elaborate strategy to limit tax bills.Apple Capital has become important to its parent. Since Jobs died, its assets have risen by 221%, twice as fast as the company’s sales, reflecting Apple’s huge build-up of profits. Its investments are worth 32% of Apple’s market value, and its profits (investment income, plus gains on derivati ves, less interest costs) have been 7% of Apple’s pre-tax profits so far this year. It is also sizeable compared with other financial firms. Consider four measures: assets, debt, credit exposure and profits. Depending on the yardstick, Apple Capital is 30-85% as big as Goldman Sachs. It is 22-42% as large as GE Capital was at its peak in 2007, just before things went down the tubes during the subprime crisis.Apple Capital is different from these firms in important ways. It does not take deposits and has much lower leverage. In their prime Goldman and GE Capital were run by hard-charging financiers, and made lots of loans. By contrast, Apple Capital does not make loans, and is not meant to be a profit centre in its own right.Apple’s core business is so profitable that it is—almost—incredible that a blow-up at Apple Capital could lead to it needing taxpayer or central-bank support, as was the case for GM and GE. Still, it is easy to imagine how Apple Capital could hurt its parent. A market shock could lead to losses on its portfolios. A two-percentage-point rise in interest rates would result in a loss of $10bn. If bond markets dried up, Apple might struggle to issue so much debt and have to bring home funds, incurring a big tax bill. It might also become tricky to run such a big derivatives portfolio.According to a former manager who left in 2012, Apple’s financial gurus were careful because “nobody wanted that 3am call from Steve Jobs”. But Jobs isn’t there any more. In any case, a fear of rebuke is not enough. If the tax laws change Tim Cook, Apple’s boss should wind down the structure that the firm has created. Tech firms should seek to disrupt finance, not be seduced by it.6. Which of the following is Not the responsibility of the "Apple Capital"?A. using its surplus profits to re-invest.B. providing related financial derivatives.C. issuing bonds to avoid high tax.D. exploring new electronic products.7. The sentence " Nonetheless, it still has become riskier in different ways." should be put in the end of ________.A. paragraph 3B. paragraph 4C. paragraph 5D. paragraph 68.What can be concluded according to the last two paragraphs?A. Apple 's development should be in line with GM and GE.B. The change of interest rates makes great difference to Apple.C. Apple's home funds can compensate for its loss in bond markets.D. Tech firms should be attached to finance.9. The passage is mainly developed by the followings except _________A. making comparisonsB. provide dataC. following the order of importanceD. giving examplesDLONDON –Hillary Clinton got closer than any American woman to the nation’s top job, but her loss has thrown a spotlight back onto the question: Why has the United States lagged behind so many countries around the world in choosing a female leader?Tiny Sri Lanka became the first to shatter the political gender barrier more than a half-century ago, back when that island nation was known as Ceylon. Its giant neighbor, India, followed a few years later.Since then women have attained top leadership posts –president, prime minister or its equivalent –in more than 15 countries in Europe, Latin America and the Asia-Pacific. Today women run two of Europe’s most powerful nations, Angela Merkel in Germany and Theresa May in Britain. So why not the United States?Historians have offered a range of reasons. Many of the earlier women’s pathways were eased because their husbands or fathers were autocratic or charismatic leaders first. Some were chosen via parliamentary deal-making, not direct elections. Others were initially tapped as temporary leaders.Some scholars theorize that European democracies may view women as more suited to high political office because their governments are known for generous social-welfare programs, something that seems maternal. In contrast, the president of the United States is primarily seen as commander in chief, which is a frame more difficult for women to fit into.“America is still seen as the policeman of the world, the guardian of the world, and we still have a very gendered version of what leadership means,” said Laura A. Liswood, secretary-general of the United Nations Foundation’s Council of Wo men World Leaders, a network of current and former female prime ministers and presidents. “Not only do we have to be liked, we also have to be tough.”Sue Thomas, a senior research scientist at the Pacific Institute for Research and Evaluation in Santa Cruz, California, said that unlike political leadership posts elsewhere, the U.S. presidency “is seen as a very masculine(男性) institution that for historical reasons is extremely hard for a female to approach.”Gender was never far from the surface in the protracted presidential campaign, but experts cautioned against seeing the election as merely a referendum(公民投票权) on the idea of a female president.“It’s hard to build a generalization about women candidates based on Hillary Clinton,” said Timothy Garton Ash, professor of European studies at Oxford University. “She is such a special case and unique figure, having been around for so long. Did people vote against her because she was a woman or because her name is Clinton? Of course it could be both.”Still, many experts see an underlying（潜在的）bias that has discouraged American womenfrom seeking political office, impeding the flow of potential female presidential candidates.“What we have in the United States is a pipeline problem,” said Kathleen Dolan, chairwoman of the department of political science at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. “Not enough women in the high-visibility, high-credibility offices. Not enough women running for school boards, county councils.”The United States ranks 97th among 193 nations worldwide in the percentage of women in the lower house of Congress, according to data compiled by the Inter-Parliamentary Union.10. The passage mainly focuses on _________.A. how women are popular in European democracies.B. why there is no female president in the USA.C. when women can come into power in the world.D. what can be done to change women’s status in America.11. The underlined word in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to ________.A. crushB. challengeC. attackD. interfere12. According to historians, many of the earlier women’s pathways were eased because________.A. they took advantage of their family resources.B. they were elected directly by the public.C. they were appointed as permanent leaders.D. they gained help from abroad.13. Why women in European countries are recognized as more suitable for high political duty?A. Women in Europe are much more generous than those in other continents.B. The democracies in Europe well match women’s roles in society.C. Women in Europe are better at regulate their governments.D. The democracies in Europe naturally have a preference for women.14. From the passage, we can conclude that________.A. The president of America is extremely hard for a female to approach for intellectual reasonsB. Election can be viewed as merely a referendum on the idea of a female president.C. Hillary Clinton would help set up a generalization about women candidates.D. Women in America can’t seek proper ways to be involved in politics.15. The passage is most probably an introduction of ________.A. conference summaryB. scientific researchC. remarks on current affairsD. political campaign阅读理解参考答案1-2 CB 3-5 DCA 6-9 DCBC 10-15 BAABDC。

综合测评Unit 1 Book4本套试卷分为第Ⅰ卷和第Ⅱ卷两部分。
总分120分。
考试时间100分钟。
第Ⅰ卷Ⅰ.阅读理解(共两节,满分35分)第一节(共10个小题;每小题2.5分,满分25分)AHollywood is still seen as a “man´s world”, but one woman is doing her best to change that.In May, 2017, the US director Sofia Coppola,46,became the second woman in the history of the Cannes Film Festival to win the Best Director Award for her movie The Beguiled. The last time a woman won the award was 56 years ago.Coppola seemed to be born for a career in film. Her father is Francis Ford Coppola, who directed the famous movie The Godfather. Coppola first appeared as a baby in The Godfather.However, it didn´t make her path to success easier. Instead, she grew up in the shadow of her father. People often criticized her for nepotism(裙带关系) and bad acting. She was named the “Worst Supporting Actress(女配角)” and “Worst New Star” at the 1991 Golden Raspberry Awards for her acting in The Godfather PartⅢ.After that, she turned to directing—what she really wanted to do all along. Her first film Lick the Star came out in 1998. And Lost in Translation soon won her an Academy Award in 2003. She gradually became famous for films focusing on women. “I just think, half the world is females,” she told Elle. She makes films with these females in mind. From the cute Lisbon girls in The Virgin Suicides to the teen queen Marie Antoinette, Coppola brings us into the amazing worlds of girls, rather than simply showing them as stupid, unimportant or useless.1. Sofia Coppola directed the following movies except .A. The GodfatherB. The BeguiledC.The Virgin SuicidesD. Lick the Star2. What do Sofia Coppola´s movies usually focus on?A. Peace.B. Love.C. Society.D. Women.3. Which of the following is true of Coppola?A. She was the 2nd female director to win an Oscar.B. She was praised for acting in her father´s movies.C. She actually started her film career as an actress.D. She won an Academy Award for Lick the Star.BAs the first woman Chancellor(总理) in Germany´s history, Angela Merkel topped Forbes magazine´s list of “The World´s 100 Most Powerful Women” from 2006 to 2018 except 2010. She has even been compared to Margaret Thatcher and many people called her “Iron Lady”.Merkel was born in Hamburg in then-West Germany, on July 17, 1954. Six weeks after she was born, her family moved to Templin. As a small child, Merkel quickly learned to speak but took longer to walk. “I was a stupid person when it comes to moving,” Merkel said. “A normal person could do something naturally, but I had to think about it in my mind and practise.” As a teenager, she was a top student and graduated from high school with perfect marks. In 1973, Merkel went to the Leipzig University, where she studied physics. At 32, she got her Doctor´s degree in Physics.She stepped into politics in 1989. In her first big political job as Federal Minister for the Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety in 1994, her scientific background and strong will proved very useful. In 2005, she became Germany´s Chancellor. She has been re-elected to a second term as German Chancellor on September 27, 2009.Through her political career, Merkel´s persistence (坚持) and patience helped her a lot. “She´s bright and open-minded,” said Hubert Merkel. “She is the person who wants to know exactly what is going on, and how never giving up will influence our society and future.”4. The underlined part “stepped into politics” in Paragraph 3 most probably means “”.A. fought the governmentB. began her scientific careerC. offered political guidanceD. became a government official5. We can infer from the passage that Angela Merkel .A. is a powerful woman with a strong will and determinationB. got her Doctor´s degree in Politics in the Leipzig UniversityC. has worked as German Chancellor since September 27, 2009D. showed her best talent as Federal Minister for the Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety6. In the last paragraph, the author mainly wants to express .A. one must be brave in the political careerB. persistence can help one´s dream come trueC. one should be patient when making decisionsD. one can have a strong will when others don´t haveCBarbara McClintock was one of the most important scientists of the twentieth century. She made important discoveries about genes and chromosomes(染色体).Barbara McClintock was born in 1902 in Hartford, Connecticut. Her family moved to the Brooklyn area of New York City in 1908. Barbara was an active child with interests in sports and music. She also developed an interest in science.She studied science at Cornell University in Ithaca, New York. Barbara was among a small number of undergraduate students to receive training in genetics in 1921. Years later, she noted that few college students wanted to study genetics.Barbara McClintock decided to study botany, the scientific study of plants, at Cornell University. She completed her undergraduate studies in 1923. McClintock decided to continue her education at Cornell. She completed a Master´s degree in 1925. Two years later, she finished all her requirements for a doctorate.McClintock stayed at Cornell after she completed her education. She taught students botany. The 1930s was not a good time to be a young scientist in the United States. The country was in the middle of the Great Depression. Millions of Americans were unemployed. Male scientists were offered jobs. But female geneticists were not much in demand.An old friend from Cornell, Marcus Morton Rhoades, invited McClintock to spend the summer of 1941 working at the Cold Spring Harbour Laboratory. It was a research centre on Long Island, near New York City. McClintock started in a temporary job with the genetics department. A short time later, she accepted a permanent position in the laboratory. This gave her the freedom to continue her research without having to teach or repeatedly ask for financial aid.By the 1970s, her discoveries have had an effect on everything from genetic engineering to cancer research. McClintock won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1983 for her discovery of the ability of genes to change positions on chromosomes. She was the first American woman to win an unshared Nobel Prize.7.When did McClintock get a doctorate degree?A.In 1921.B.In 1923.C.In 1925.D.In 1927.8.In the middle of the Great Depression in the US, .A.male geneticists were in great demandB.young scientists might have trouble finding a jobC.female geneticists were not in demand at allD.male scientists lost their jobs and were out of work9.Which of the following jobs was beneficial to McClintock´s research?A.A job as a botany teacher.B.A temporary job in the genetics department.C.A permanent position in the laboratory.D.A job to research cancer.10.Why was McClintock awarded a Nobel Prize?A.Because she received a degree in genes and chromosomes.B.Because she contributed to genetic engineering and cancer research.C.Because she made important discoveries about genes and chromosomes.D.Because she was the first American woman who studied genes and chromosomes.第二节(共5个小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Unit1 Women of achievement单元教案This unit stays focused on the topic: women. Six women with various national backgrounds are featured, and different aspects of their life are explored, like, their social position, contributions and hardships ;meanwhile, their achievements in a wide variety of fields are highly praised. Ss will know better the roles women play in social life, with their(esp. girl students’)self-esteem and sense of social responsibility boosted.Warming-up requires Ss to comment on the 6 women and give their opinions and reasons as well. This part connects Unit5,Module1.The rules concluded in the earlier unit can be applied here to identify great women. Ss should be encouraged to discuss what these women did for other people, and what problems they had to overcome or what they had to give up to achieve their ambition.Pre-reading is also a discussion but focused on Jane Goodall. The two questions raised here prompt Ss to think over the pros and cons of two approaches to scientific study(lab research & field research). Then, Ss are asked to predict the content based on the title and pictures.Reading-A Student of African Wildlife depicts a scene where Jane and her colleagues studied chimps in an African forest and explains the significance of their work and the achievements she reached. Despite the fact that it was a dirty and tiring job to do the field research in the wild,they all regarded it as worthwhile. Some of their valuable discoveries would not have been made in the lab;for the very reason Jane Goodall had chosen the primitive African forest to study in.Her years of observing and recording chimps’ daily activities attributed to a better understanding of their behaviour. She has argued that wild animals be left in the wild and not used for entertainment or advertisements. She has endeavored to enhance people’s awareness of understanding, respecting and protecting wild animals. She is an inspiring role model !Comprehending consists of 4 Exx, guiding Ss to comprehend the reading passage at different levels. Exx1-3 are intended to aid Ss to obtain important details ,grasp paragraph main ideas and transfer text information in the form of multiple choice, summing-up and filling in a chart. The 4 open-ended Qs in Ex4 encourage Ss to think in oth ers’ shoes, which helps strengt hen Ss’ faith in animals protection.Learning about Language is to discover and practice useful words, expressions and structures. Discovering useful words and expressions is meant to help Ss to further study word formation, key words & phrases; Discovering useful structures centers on “subject-verb agreement”, determining the number of collective noun being the priority for the moment. Form-Meaning-Use approach is encouraged in grammar study. Using language is to train Ss’ in tegrating skills in listening, speaking , reading and writing. Reading features Lin Qiaozhi,a famed specialist inwomen disease, who achieved great success in her career with remarkable perseverance and efforts. She cared about women and mothers, esp. those living in poverty, and earned respect with her kindness and warn heart. Plus, she dedicated all her life to her patients and Chinese medical care. Ss are expected to learn about an outstanding woman’s life, and, more importantly, get enlightened when considering their future career choice.
