Waves begin to form, and each wave is called a tsunami.A tsunami is less than one metre high and can move at a speed of almost 800 kilometres per hour while it is far out in the ocean.

必修一Unit 4 earthquakes单元测试Ⅰ.阅读理解AThe spread of Western eating habits around the world is bad for human health and the environment. These findings come from a new report in the journal Nature.David Tilman, a professor of ecology at the University of Minnesota, America, examined information from 100 countries to identify what people ate and how a diet affected health. He noted a movement beginning in the 1960s. He found that as nations industrialized (工业化), population increased and earnings rose, more people began to adopt what has been called the Western diet.The Western diet is high in sugar, fat, oil and meat. By eating these foods, people began to get fatter and sicker. David Tilman says overweight people are at greater risk of non-infectious diseases like diabetes (糖尿病) and heart disease.Unfortunately when people become industrialized, if they adopt this Western diet, they are going to have these health problems, especially in developing countries in Asia. China is an example where the number of diabetes cases has been jumping from less than one percent to 10 percent of the population as they began to industrialize over a 20-year period. And that is happening all across the world, in Mexico, in Nigeria and so on.And, a diet bad for human beings is also bad for the environment. As the world's population grows, more forests and tropical (热带的) areas will become farmlands for crops or grasslands for cattle. We are likely to have more greenhouse gas in the future from agriculture than that coming out of all forms of transportation right now.Mr Tilman calls the link between the diet, the environment and human health, “a trilemma”—a problem offering a difficult choice. He says one possible solution is leaving the Western diet behind.篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。

必修一Unit 4 earthquakes单元测试Ⅰ.阅读理解ANASA's New Horizons probe (宇宙探测器) flew by Pluto (冥王星) this morning, sending back history's first up－close looks at the vast freezing－cold world. Closest approach came at 7：49 am EDT. To celebrate, NASA gave out the latest photo of Pluto. It showed a reddish world with an amazing heart－shaped feature on its surface.After today's close encounter, all the nine solar system's traditionally recognized planets have now been visited by a spaceship—a huge project begun in 1962 when NASA's Mariner 2 probe flew past Venus, a planet in the solar system. More than 1,200 scientists, NASA guests and important persons, including 200 reporters, watched the flyby live at New Horizons' mission control center.That close encounter has been a long time coming. The $723 million New Horizons mission launched in January 2006 but began taking shape in 1989. “New Horizons is ‘a capstone mission’，” Glen Fountain, mission project manager told Space. com. “It is the first completion of the observations of our solar system. It is giving us a new idea about how we human beings fit into the universe.”“New Horizons faced a crazy number of challenges，”Stern, a driving force behind New Ho rizons said, “So many people stuck with this for so long. They got knocked down; they stood up. They got knocked down again; they stood up again.”In a coincidence, today's close approach falls on the 50th anniversary of the first flyby of Mars, another planet, which was completed by NASA's Mariner 4 spaceship.There are no longer nine officially recognized planets, of course. The International Astronomical Union regarded Pluto as “a dwarf planet” in 2006, in a decision that remains controversial (有争议的) today.篇章导读：本文是一篇新闻报道类文章，主要讲述了科学家对太阳系行星冥王星的最新探测成果。

However, you may not be convinced that the ability to write will be important in your own future. If so, you will be surprised at the results of a recent survey by the National Institute of Education. More than four thousand working men and women who had graduated fifteen years earlier were asked to name the courses they would have taken in college if they had known better. The designer of the survey expected people to name courses in computer science, mathematics, or business. But the course most often mentioned was writing.If you already have a job, you are probably not surprised at their answers. Many jobs require the ability to write. Despite the increasing use of the telephone and the computer, much information must be communicated in writing.Some ten million people—managers, engineers, sales representatives, andmany others—write regularly as part of their jobs. Summaries, reports, letters and speeches are required in today's work world. The ability to write, therefore, is an important skill. The successful individual is almost always the one who can communicate successfully in writing.Writing communicates your thoughts and feelings to others; it also tells you something about yourself. Maybe this is what Eldridge Cleaver had in mind in his autobiography, “I started to write…to save myself…I had to seek out the truth…I had to find out who I am and what I want to be，what type of man I should be，and w hat I could do to become the best of which I was capable.”1．Why does the author say writing is very important?A．Because it is a required course at high school and college.B．Because it is a way to communicate your thoughts.C．Because it is an important skill for many jobs.D．Because it shows your good quality.2．The survey conducted by the National Institute of Education shows that _____．A．more than 4，000 working people value the course of writingB．many people regard computer science as a useful courseC．some people would study business if they had a chanceD．most people consider writing to be an important course3．Why is Eldridge Cleaver's autobiography mentioned in the passage?A．To clarify what writing means to people.B．To show what good writing is.C．To encourage people to write.D．To provide evidence for the survey.Ⅲ.完形填空I lay there buried alive under our house when the bomb hit our city. The great __1__ started by the bomb came nearer and nearer to us as workers tried to __2__ us. “Hurry！” They cried to one another as the flames came nearer. At last they reached us and __3__ me and my mother out from under everything __4__ the flames reached us.Later, as I thought of the pilot of the plane that __5__ the bomb on our city, I c ried, “I hate him.

2019-2020学年人教版高一英语单元测试卷：必修1 Unit 4 Earthquakes(原卷版)
Unit 4 Earthquakes第一节阅读理解AAfter the earthquake had stopped, when the rescuers reached the ruins of a young woman's house, they saw her dead body through the cracks. But her pose was somehow strange that she knelt on her knees like a person was worshipping(礼拜); her body was leaning forward, and her two hands were supported by an object. The collapsed house had crashed her back and her head.With so many difficulties, the leader of the rescue team put his hand through a narrow gap on the wall to reach the woman's body. He was hoping that this woman could be still alive. However, the cold and stiff body told him that she had passed away for sure.He and the rest of the team left this house and were going to search the next collapsed building. For some reasons, the team leader was driven by a compelling force to go back to the ruined house of the dead woman. Again, he knelt down and used his hand through the narrow cracks to search the little space under the dead body. Suddenly, he screamed with excitement，“A child! There is a child！”The whole team worked together; carefully they removed the piles of ruined objects around the dead woman. There was a 3monthold little boy wrapped in a flowery blanket under his mother's dead body. Obviously, the woman had made a sacrifice for saving her son. When her house was falling, she used her body to make a cover to protect her son. The little boy was still sleeping peacefully when the team leader picked him up.The medical doctor came quickly to examine the little boy. After he opened the blanket, he saw a cell phone.There was a text message on the screen. It said, “If you can survive, you must remember that I love you.”This cell phone was passed around from one hand to another. Everybody that read the message wept. “If you can survive, you must remember that I love you.” Such is the mother's love for her child!【文章大意】本文是一篇记叙文。

D．The airport system has been closed since last night.BOn Sept. 24, an earthquake struck the south-west of Pakistan, taking more than 300 people's lives and leaving hundreds of thousands homeless. But after the horrible disaster, people living by the coast received another shock—they saw a new island, which seemed to have appeared out of nowhere in the sea just over a kilometre from the shore, reported BBC News.“I stepped out and was flabbergasted，” local journalist Bahram Baloch told the BBC. “I could see this grey, dome-shaped (圆顶形的) body in the distance, like a giant whale swimming near the surface. Hundreds of people had gathered to watch it in disbelief.”This island has become a global curiosity. How was it formed in just a few minutes?As you might already know, many islands in the sea are formed by volcanoes. There are numerous volcanoes under the sea. As the hot lava erupts and cools down, it piles up and forms the shape of a mountain. When the mountain “grows” to higher than the sea level, the part that's above the water is what we call an “island”．This is how the island was formed after the Pakistan earthquake, except that instead of a regular volcano, it was a “mud volcano”that brought about this island. Lava is not the only thing that's locked under the earth's crust—there is also gas. When an earthquake happens and breaks part of the crust, the gas is released at an extremely high speed, pushing mud up to the surface, according to National Geographic.But only earthquakes that are extremely powerful can cause mud volcanoes to push up enough mud toproduce islands—and this 7.7magnitude earthquake in Pakistan was strong enough. The island is about 20 metres high, up to about 90 metres wide and 30 metres long, nearly the size of a soccer field.In fact, mud volcano islands aren't new. This is the fourth island of this kind in the region since 1945. But those islands usually didn't last long.“It will probably be gone within a couple of months，”said Bill Barnhart, a researcher with the US Geological Survey. After all, “It's just a big pile of mud that was on the seafloor that got pushed up.”5. What is the article mainly about?A．The disastrous effects of coastal earthquakes.B．The difference between mud volcanoes and regular volcanoes.C．How islands are formed by mud volcanoes.D．The great natural wonders of Pakistan.6. The underlined word “flabbergasted” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to “________”．A．surprised B．disappointed C．worried D．curious7. We can infer from the article that ________．A．the new island near the coast of Pakistan actually took a few months to formB．scientists still know little about different types of volcanoesC．another earthquake is likely to happen in Pakistan within a couple of monthsD．not all volcanoes change the geological appearance of the earthCSuppose you have everything: a good job, good health, good relationships and a lot of money to spend. But still there is something missing from your life. Guess what? The love. It is not something that you should ignore. Life without love is just like body without soul.Love gives meaning to life as without love life is meaningless. Lucky is the person who gets love and keeps the flames of love burning forever. It is not a matter of days or months. Love__is__for__life__and__life__is__for__love.It is easy to fall in love but difficult to keep the flames of love burning. Before having serious long-term love relationships, be sure that the person you love is also sincere with you. A selfish person can make your life terrible. If this is the case with you then try to get rid of that person as soon as possible.Most people do not give importance to their love life as they give importance to their professional life. This is a bad choice which ruins the whole life. A balance between the two is necessary in order to enjoy life in itsentirety. Do not lose the love you need.In order to make your life more exciting and enjoyable, you need a loving and caring person with whom you can share your values, dreams, joys and jokes. In difficult times of failure, pain, or loss of dear ones, this person should stand firm beside you and comfort you in every possible manner.Love your life and love the person who is in your life. Keep the flames of love burning to live a great life.8. What's the meaning of the underlined sentence in the second paragraph?A．Love is only for life. B．Life is designed only for love.C．Life is not separated from love. D．When you have a good life, you can own a real love.9.

第Ⅰ卷Ⅰ.阅读理解(共两节，满分35分)第一节(共10小题；每小题2.5分，满分25分)AElizabeth Blackwell was born in England in 1821, and moved to New York City when she was ten years old. One day she decided that she wanted to become a doctor. That was nearly impossible for a woman in the middle of the nineteenth century. After writing many letters asking for admission(录取)to medical schools, she was finally accepted by a doctor in Philadelphia. She was so determined that she taught school and gave music lessons to get money for the cost of schooling.In 1849, after graduation from medical school, she decided to further her education in Paris. She wanted to be a surgeon(外科医师), but a serious eye problem forced her to give up the idea.Upon returning to the United States, she found it difficult to start her own practice because she was a woman. By 1857 Elizabeth and her sister, also a doctor, along with another woman doctor, managed to open a new hospital, the first for women and children. Besides being the first woman physician and founding her own hospital, she also set up the first medical school for women.1．Why couldn't Elizabeth Blackwell realize her dream of becoming a surgeon?A．She couldn't get admitted to medical school.B．She decided to further her education in Paris.C．A serious eye problem stopped her.D．It was difficult for her to start a practice in the United States.2．What main obstacle(障碍) almost destroyed Elizabeth's chances for becoming a doctor?A．She was a woman.B．She wrote too many letters.C．She couldn't graduate from medical school.D．She couldn't set up her hospital.3．According to the passage, all of the following are “firsts” in the life of Elizabeth Blackwell EXCEPT that she ________.A．became the first woman physicianB．was the first woman doctorC．and several other women founded the first hospital for women and childrenD．set up the first medical school for womenBThere are many ways to find a job. It can be as easy as walking into a neighbourhood store to look at its announcement board. Local stores often have areas where people can put small signs telling what kind of service they need or can provide. Such services include caring for children or cleaning houses.Or, job searchers can look in the newspaper. Local newspapers have employment announcements placed by companies seeking workers.Another popular tool for finding jobs is the Internet. For example, people in four hundred and fifty cities around the world can use the Craigslist website to buy objects, meet people or find a job. Craigslist says that it receives two million new job listings each month.Another useful way to find a job is through a college or university. For example, students at the University of Texas at Austin can go to the Career Exploration Centre to get help in finding a job. Of course, looking for a job requires knowing what kind of work you want to do. For example, there is a book called What Colour is Your Parachute? by Richard Nelson Bolles. This book has been helping people choose a career (职业) since it was first published in 1970.Some experts also help people find jobs. Susan W. Miller owns a company called California Career Services in Los Angeles. She says her company helps people find jobs by first helping them understand their strengths, goals and interests. Then she provides them with methods and resources to help them find the right job.4．What Colour is Your Parachute? is a book which gives tips to those who want to ________．A．work on the airplane B．buy a parachute C．publish a book D．find a suitable job 5．It can be learned from the passage that ________．A．companies often put job information in local shopsB．the Internet is the most popular tool for jobhunters in the USAC．Susan W.

D．Six.CLi Bingyin is now studying law at the Stern School of Business at New Y ork University. She wrote this letter just before Hurricane Sandy destroyed the East Coast.Dear readers，The storm will really take__a__toll on the city! Right now I am sitting in my dormitory, waiting for the blackout(停电) to come at any second, and listening to the wind howl outside my windows. Hurricane Sandy is supposed to hit the East Coast hard today. Due to the bad weather, most schools and universities have cancelled classes for Monday and Tuesday.Luckily, the university has taken measures to prepare for this storm. University officials sent out e-mails with explanation in the case of a blackout, evacuation(撤离), or other emergencies. Just recently, I received several text messages from the school about power off in certain dormitories. They advised us to prepare a bag with essentials(生活必需品), in case we need to leave the building and relocate to a safer location.Yesterday I went out to buy a flashlight, but all of the nearby stores were sold out. Everyone was stocking up on(存储) water, food and other supplies for the storm.Right now the city is unusually quiet. On any other day, there would be the sounds of cars, people chatting, and street artists performing. Tonight, there's just the wind and rain hitting the windows. The subway system has been closed since last night, and there is rarely anyone on the streets. Hopefully Hurricane Sandy will soon pass without leaving much damage.Sincerely，Li Bingyin7．From the passage we can know that________．A．Hurricane Sandy has already caused great damage to New YorkB．the author went out to buy a flashlight but failedC．most people haven't been prepared for the coming of Hurricane SandyD．most schools and universities have cancelled classes for three days8．What measures has the university taken to prepare for the storm?A．The university has asked students to leave the school at once.B．The university has asked students to close all the windows and doors.C．The university has sent text messages to students about what time the storm will come.D．The university has asked students to prepare necessary things in case of evacuation.9．The underlined phrase “take a toll”means “________”．A．cause a loss B．hurt C．flood D．bury10．What can we infer from the last paragraph?A．New York is a quiet city at other times.B．New York is a busy city at other times.C．Hurricane Sandy has already come.D．The airport system has been closed since last night.第二节(共5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。

2019-2020学年高一上学期训练卷必修一 Unit4 Earthquakes英 语（本卷满分100分）一、阅读理解（每小题2分，共16分）AOne Sunday, Nicholas, a teenager, went skiing at Sugarloaf Mountain in Maine. In the early afternoon, when he was planning to go home, a fierce snowstorm swept into the area. Unable to see far, he accidentally turned off the path. Before he knew it, Nicholas was lost, all alone! He didn't have food, water, a phone, or other supplies. He was getting colder by the minute.Nicholas had no idea where he was. He tried not to panic. He thought about all of the survival shows he had watched on TV. It was time to put the tips he had learned to use.He decided to stop skiing. There was a better chance of someone finding him if he stayed put. The first thing he did was find shelter from the freezing wind and snow. If he didn't, his body temperature would get very low, which could quickly kill him.Using his skis, Nicholas built a snow cave. He gathered a huge mass of snow and dug out a hole in the middle. Then he piled branches on top o f himself, like a blanket, to stay as warm as he could.By that evening, Nicholas was really hungry. He ate snow and drank water from a nearby stream so that his body wouldn't lose too much water. Not knowing how much longer he could last, Nicholas did the only thing he could —he huddled (蜷缩) in his cave and slept. The next day, Nicholas went out to look for help, but he couldn't find anyone. He followed his tracks and returned to the snow cave, because without shelter, he could die that night. On Tuesday, Nicholas went out again to find help. He had walked for about a mile when a volunteer searcher found him. After two days stuck in the snow, Nicholas was saved.Nicholas might not have survived this snowstorm had it not been for TV. He had often watched Grylls' survival show Man vs. Wild . That's where he learned the tips that saved his life. In each episode (一期节目) of Man vs. Wild, Grylls is abandoned in a wild area and has to find his way out.When Grylls heard about Nicholas' amazing deeds, he was super impressed that Nicholas had made it since he knew better than anyone how hard Nicholas had to work to stay alive.1．What happened to Nicholas one Sunday afternoon? A ．He got lost. B ．He broke his skis. C ．He hurt his eyes. D ．He caught a cold. 2．How did Nicholas keep himself warm? A ．He found a shelter. B ．He lighted some branches. C ．He kept on skiing.
