人教版高中英语选修六课后阅读训练17.【Unit5Period1】及答案解析Ⅰ.阅读理解ADuke Ellington(1899—1974)may be America’s greatest composer.He led an orchestra,played the piano and composed over2,000pieces of music.Duke began his life as Edward Kennedy Ellington in Washington,D.C.He wasnicknamed by a classmate who admired him.This nickname was proper for Dukebecause of his elegant and proud manners.Even as a child,Duke had fans.Duke’s parents got him in piano lessons when he was in primary school.Duke was very afraid of his lessons and preferred to play baseball instead.He grew bored with practising and gave up his lessons.Duke didn’t become interested in learning the piano again until he was a teenager.Duke often joked that he learned to play the piano to attract girls.While washing dishes for his summer job, Duke met a waiter who invited him to go and see ragtime(an early form of jazz)pianist,Harvey Brooks.Brooks played ragtime in a way that did not follow the rules of classical piano music—he had freedom to change the rules and express himself more freely.Duke discovered that he wanted to make his own music too and then he taught himself how to play the piano like Harvey Brooks.He practised until his fingers could fly and even arranged melodies as he played.Soon Duke began playing for his high school dances.When he was19,he started playing at parties and dance halls.Duke then moved to New York.There he played in different jazz clubs,saloons and dance halls.Soon he was leading his own band,the Washingtonians at the Kentucky Club,located in Times Square.In1927,after giving a performance at the Cotton Club,he began to produce sophisticated(高水平的)arrangements of his own.He toured the world with his orchestra and composed thousands of songs.Duke led his orchestra until his death.【语篇概述】本文主要讲的是美国著名作曲家Duke Ellington(艾灵顿公爵)的生平。

BWhen my brother and I were children,we spent a few weeks each summer in the countryside with our uncle. He was a geologist and loved to go on long walks to find stones to add to his collection at the university.More often than not,we followed him.One day,we left early,and this time,our uncle had bought us backpacks.“You can help me carry the samples,”he explained.Sure,why not?The whole day,we walked around the countryside,and every now and then,our uncle put stones in our bags.We were a bit surprised that he also took some stones out from our bags at times,but figured he had just found better samples than the ones we already had.Still,when we reached the house in the late afternoon,we were exhausted.The backpacks were so heavy that we gave a big sigh of relief when we put them on the ground.Yet our uncle’s backpack was half-empty.“Why did you give us so many stones?”we asked.“I didn’t.You did,”he said,waiting for a while before continuing.“You did not know it,but I made you go through a little attitude test today.”“What do you mean an‘attitude test’?”we wanted to know.“It is something someone once did to me—and I shall always remember it.You see,I listened to every word you said.And whenever you complained about anyone or anything,I added a stone to your bags.And whenever you talked about something with an attitude of gratitude and positive thinking,I took out a stone.And now look at your backpacks.”We did.They were full.“I hope you remember this little attitude test.You see,your negative thoughts are like stones.You carry them in your mind just like those stones in a backpack.The more negative thoughts you have,the heavier your mind is.A positive thought,however,cancels out a negative one.So look at those bags and start paying attentionto what you say and how you say things.”This little lesson was one of the most important I ever had.And I remember my uncle with great love for teaching us one of the most important lessons in life—the power of attitude.【语篇概述】本文是记叙文。

人教版高中英语选修六课后阅读训练5.【Unit 2 Period 1】及答案解析
人教版高中英语选修六课后阅读训练5.【Unit2Period1】及答案解析Ⅰ.阅读理解APoetry is one of the important art forms of literature,and is an easy way to express your feelings.Moreover, everyone understands it in their own way.Some find relief in poems;some read them simply for peace;some read poems for simple artistic pleasure.There are some special features of poetry,which make it quite different from other forms of literature.First of all,poems have rhythmic patterns.Generally most parts of a poem follow the same form of rhythm.Poems may have rhyme,but they don’t have to.The lines are neatly arranged together so that they express a particular feeling or emotion.There can be various types of poems but according to the pattern or the form,there are mainly three types:Lyrics(抒情诗):The lyric mainly concentrates on human thoughts and emotions rather than a story.Lyrics always bear song-like appeal.These are mainly short poems.Popular lyric poem forms are the elegy(挽歌),theode(颂歌)and the sonnet(十四行诗).William Shakespeare,Edmund Waller and Keats are some of the greatest lyric writers of all times.Narrative poems:This type of poetry tells a story.Narrative poems are usually long poems.Epics(史诗)and ballads fall under this type.Some of the greatest epic poets are John Milton,Dante,Edgar Allan Poe,Alexander Pope, William Shakespeare,etc.Dramatic poems:Any drama that is written in verse is a dramatic poem.These poems generally tell a story. Black verse,dramatic monologues and closet drama belong to this type.William Shakespeare,Christopher Marlowe and Ben Jonson are some of the great dramatic poets.Whatever the form is,one thing,which cannot be denied,is that poetry is one of the most powerful tools to express our feelings.【语篇概述】本文主要讲了诗歌的一些特点以及诗歌的几个类别。

AEven though you can watch a movie on your TV, laptop or iPad these days, great theatres still make going to the movies worth buying a ticket-and sometimes even worth a trip.1.AMC Loews Uptown, Washington, D.C.Local movie critics will tell you ＂The Uptown＂is the best place to see a movie in the Washington, D.C. area. Op ened in 1936, it’s not a movie theatre, but a movie palace featuring a single screen—a curved (弧形的), 70-foot long and 40-foot high screen, one of the largest in the area.2.ArcLight Cinemas Hollywood, Los AngelesThis Hollywood theatre isn’t just a place t o see stars on screen you might catch a few sitting next to you in the audience. The theatre offers 14 screens with reserved stadium seating (the seats are wider than average), and the famous Cinerama Dome (全景电影).3.Tampa Theatre, Tampa, FloridaA classic movie palace designed by famed theatre architect John Eberson, the Tampa landmark was built in 1926. The theatre now shows both new and classic films. Come early to hear the Mighty Wurlitzer theatre organ played before most films.4.Grauman’s Chinese Theatre, Los AngelesIt’s not just a movie theatre. It’s a Hollywood experience. Opened in 1927, the theatre was known in its early days for lavish (奢华的) Hollywood premieres (首映) and hosting three Academy Award ceremonies. Check out the nearby Hollywood Walk of Fame before watching a movie on the big screen, and when your movie is over, stop by the next-door Kodak Theatre, where the Oscars were once held.1.What do ArcLight Cinemas Hollywood and Grauman’s Chinese Theatre have in common?A. They both hosted the Oscars.B. They were built in the same year.C. They offer presents to customers.D. They are situated in the same city.2.What can we learn about Tampa Theatre?A. It was opened in 1936.B. It has a single curved screen.C. It has an outdoor courtyard.D. It offers Mighty Wurlitzer play.3.What is the text mainly about?A. Famous buildings in the USA.B. Four largest theatres in the world.C. Four theatres worth visiting in America.D. Modern theatres with advanced facilities.BWant to help fight global warming? Take off your tie, says the Italian health ministry.It has urged employers to let their staff dress casually at work in the summer so that the air conditioning can be turned down.＂Taking your tie off immediately lowers the body temperature by 2 or 3 degrees centigrade, ＂the ministry said in a statement. ＂Allowing a more sensible use of air conditioning brings about electricity savings and protects the environment.＂It called on all public and private offices to let employees wear no tie during heat waves like the one that has brought Africa-like temperatures to many parts of Italy this week.The move echoes (回应) a similar action from Italy’s biggest oil group, ENI, which told its staff earlier this month they need not wear a tie at work.The tie makers, however, were left hot under the collar.＂Italy confirms that it is a strange country,＂Flavio Cima said angrily in a letter to financial daily Il Sole 24 ORE under the headline: ＂I, tie maker, am responsible for global warming.＂＂We can now happily continue with our lifestyle, using cars, consuming fuel, heating and cooling our homes at leisure. On one condition: we should not wear a tie while we do so,＂he wrote.＂I should have listened to my friends and become an oil producer instead.＂Italy is one of the European Union’s worst performers on the pollution front and is among the EU countries expected to exceed(超出) their greenhouse gas emission (排放) targets.4.What’s the purpose of the move of taking off ties?A. To dress casually.B. To fight global warming.C. To keep the body temperature.D. To improve working conditions.5.Who first encouraged employees to take off ties?A.ENI.B. Flavio Cima.C.A financial daily.D. The Italian health ministry.6.What does the underlined part ＂hot under the collar＂in Paragraph 6 probably mean?A. Angry.B. Speechless.C. Delighted.D. Puzzled.7.Which of the following is TRUE about Flavio Cima?A. He stands by the oil group.B. He agrees with the ministry.C. He admits his responsibility.D. He argues against taking off ties.CExperts believe that storms and severe weather in North America and Asia have disrupted bird flight paths across the world and swept huge numbers of bird species towards the British Isles.Birds flying to the other side of the Atlantic or to the Pacific to lay their eggs have been trapped in Britain and Ireland, adding their numbers to native species, and causing great excitement in the bird-watching community.Local birdwatchers have already observed a total of 442 species in the British Isles this year. The highest number ever seen in one year is 445, in 2008.＂We only need four more to break our record,＂said Lee Evans, who runs the British Birding Association. ＂With three months to go, I’m sure we’ll do it.＂Last month an extremely rare Siberian Rubythroat bird was seen in Scotland, sending hundreds of birdwatchers north in the hope of catching a glimpse of this colourful Asian beauty. Another very uncommon bird, the bufflehead duck was cited in Cornwell and caused similar excitement. ＂I couldn’t believe it,＂said Evans. ＂The poor thing was completely knackered. It must have been blown to England by the storms while trying to fly from Canada to the southern United States for the winter. That’s 3000 miles!＂Evans said that global warming over the past decade was playing a key role in transforming bird movements across the world. In addition, melting Arctic sea ice may also be opening up bird flight paths over the North Pole, making it easier for birds from the Pacific—such as the slaty-backed gull and tufted puffin, both of which appeared in London earlier this year—to reach Britain.Bird-watching is becoming an increasingly popular hobby among all age groups, added Evans. ＂A fifth of our members are under 18. This is a round-the-year hobby that you can enjoy from the kitchen window or from a car. More and more people are bird-watching, and as a result, more and more unexpected species are being spotted in the British Isles.＂zx&xk8.What is the passage mainly about?A. The results of global warming.B. Changes in the British bird population.C. Increasing environmental pollution.D. Worsening British weather.9.The underlined word ＂knackered＂is closest in meaning to ________.A. boredB. knockedC. spottedD. tired10.According to the passage, which of the following birds comes from Asia?A. Slaty-backed gull.B. Bufflehead.C. Rubythroat.D. Tufted puffin.11.Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a possible reason for seeing more bird species in Britain?A. An increase in the number of birdwatchers.B.A growth in the number of native species.C. Storms due to global warming.D. The melting Arctic ice cap.DWhere should an adventurous tourist go? After you’ve done sightseeing in London, shopping in New York, enjoyed the local food in Paris, and danced to your heart’s content at the Brazilian carnival, where else can you go? What attractive tourist destination awaits you?Well, Antarctica sounds like the holiday of a lifetime! It's considered the last great wilderness on Earth. Just a few scientists in research stations share the icy landscape with penguins and other animals which can struggle with the low temperatures.Tourism began in Antarctica in the 1950s and it's still small part. About 37,000 tourists are expected there this season, but many won't even leave the boat.The BBC’s Juliet Rix visited the frozen continent and asked herself if she should be there at all, causing potential problems to such a sensitive environment. Her tour guide admitted that all visitors leave a footprint and they all go to the same places, the accessible coastline, which is also where the penguins and seals go to raise.But some people believe that if carefully controlled, tourism can be good for Antarctica. It has no native population and it needs advocates. Visitors to the icy continent might be ready to support and even to fund its preservation. And they're likely to engage in the discussion about global warming, which has led to the melting of glaciers.According to Rix, guidelines are followed when you’re about to set foot in Antarctica and tourists have to disinfect(消毒)their boots to make sure no alien species are introduced.And once on land, there's no eating or smoking. Rocks, bone fragments—nothing should be taken as a souvenir and nothing should be left behind.Tourists fortunate enough to visit the Antarctic must be aware that this is not their home and keep their fingers crossed that future generations will also be able to enjoy such breathtaking views.12.Who lives in Antarctica?A.37,000 tourists.B. The BBC's Juliet Rix.C.A few scientists and animals.D. People in London and Paris.13.Why can tourism be good for Antarctica?A. People can bring some animals into it.B. People may take interest in the protection of it.C. People can give advice to the native population.D. People will go to the coastline to play with the seals.14.What are the guidelines when you go on the shore?A. You can leave rubbish on the shore.B. You can smoke and eat on the shore.C. You can take something as souvenirs.D. You can help to protect the environment.15.What is the author’s attitude towards the tourists going to Antarctica?A. Positive.B. Ambiguous.C. Subjective.D. Negative.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。
