So when everyone else in the class was focusing on tasks, I couldn’t.In my first class, Mrs Green asked us to read a story and then write on it within 45 minutes. I raised my hand right away and said, “Mrs Green, you see, I have attention problems. I might .not be able to do that.”She looked at me and said, “You are no different from your classmates, young man.” I tried,but I didn’t finish the reading. So I took it home.In my bedroom, it was so quiet and the story suddenly became clear to me. It was about a blind person, Louis Braille. He lived in a time when the blind couldn’t get much education. But Louis didn’t give up. Instead, he invented a reading system which opened up a new world to the blind.Wasn’t I the “blind” in my class, being made to learn like the “sighted(有视力的) ” students? My thoughts spilled out and my pen started to dance. I completed the task within 40 minutes. Indeed, I was, no different from others. If Louis could find his way out of his problems, why should I ever give up?I didn’t expect anything when I handed in my paper to Mrs Green, so when it came back to me the next day with an “A” on it, I couldn’t believe my eyes. At the bottom of the paper were these words, “See what you can do when you keep trying.”1.What did Mrs Green do after hearing the writer’s words?A. She told the writer to think it over at home.B. She believed what the writer said to herC. She asked the writer to finish the reading soon.D. Sheen coy raged the writer to do as well as others.2.What can we know about Louis Braille from the passage?A. He was a blind man with an attention disorder.B. He played an important role in the world of the bind people.C. He thought he was different from others.D. He finally gave up getting education.3.How did the writer feel when he got his paper at last?A. Strange.B. Excited.C. SurprisedD. Embarrassed(尴尬的)Passage BYou’re sitting in class and your stomach is starting to rumble(咕咕). Finally, the bell rings and it’s time for lunch! After class, you should have a chance to go to the dining room and sit down, relax, and enjoy the time with your friends at lunchtime. You eat and talk together happily. But wait a minute―what exactly are you eating?When you choose what to eat for lunch, making a healthy choice is really important? Eating various heathy foods gives you energy to study, helps you grow in the way you should, and can even keep you away from getting sick. Think of your school lunch as the fuel(燃料) you put in your car. If you choose the wrong kind of fuel, you might run out of energy before the day is over. Most kids have the choice of packing lunch or buying one at school. The good news is that a kid can get a healthy lunch in either way. Probably, some foods served at school are healthier than others. That doesn’t mean you shouldn’t buy your lunch. It just means you need to give the menu a closer look.A packed lunch isn’t always healthier than one you buy at school. If you pack chocolate cake and potato chips, that’s not a heathy meal! But a packed lunch, if you do it right, does have a clear advantage. When you pack your lunch, you can be sure it includes your favorite healthy foods. If your favorite food is the fruit salad, just make it and pack it. Then you can cat it for lunch.If you want to pack your lunch, you’ll need some help from your parents. Talk to them about what you want in your lunch so they can stock(储备) up on those foods. Parents might offer to pack your lunch. It is nice of them, but you may want to watch how they do it and ask if you can start making your lunch yourself. It’s a way to show that you’re growing up.4.Why does the writer compare a person to(把人比作) a car?A. To explain the importance of healthy food.B. To prove(证明) that a lot of things can be put into a car.C. To describe the relationship between a car and its fuel.D. To show that lunch is as important as the fuel in a car.5.What can we learn about a packed lunch?A. It’s cheaper than other types of lunch.B. It’s better than the one bought at school.C. It can be satisfying if the food is chosen properly.D. Most people like junk food as their lunch.6.What is the purpose of the last paragraph?A. To interest kids in cooking lunch.B. To encourage kids not to depend on (依赖) their parents.C. To ask kids to pack lunch for their parents.D. To support parents in packing lunch for their kids.Passage CInstead of hitting the beach, fourteen high school students sold swimming suits for lab coats last summer and turned their attention to scientific experiments.The High School Research Program offers high school students guidance(引导) with researchers in Texas A&M’s Collage of Agriculture and Life Sciences. Jennifer Funkhouser,academic adviser for the Department of Rangeland Ecology and Management, directs this four-week summer program designed to make students know more about research and its career potential(潜能) .Several considerations go into choosing students, including grades, school involvement(参与) and interest in science and agriculture(农业). And many student come from poorer school districts, Funkhouser says. “This is their chance to learn techniques and do experiments they never would have a chance to do in high school.”Warner Ervin of Houston is interested in animal science and learned how to tell male from female mosquitoes(蚊子). His adviser (导师), Craig Coates, studies the genes of mosquitoes that allow them to fight against malaria(疟疾) and yellow fever. Coates thought this experience would be fun and helpful to the high school students.The agricultural research at A&M differs from the old ones. It’s “molecular(分子) science on the cutting edge,” Funkhouser says. The program broadened(拓展) students’ knowledge. Victor Garcia of Rio Grande City hopes to become a biology teacher and says he learned a lot about chemistry from the program.At the end of the program, the students wrote papers on their research? They’re also paid $ 600 for their work--another way this program differs from others, which often charge a fee. Fourteen students got paid to learn that science is fun, that agriculture is a lot more than miking and plowing and that research can open many doors.7.The research program is mainly designed for________.A. high school advisers from HoustonB. college students majoring(专业为) in agricultureC. high school students from different placesD. researchers at the College of Agriculture and Life Science8.It can be inferred (推断) from the text that the students in poorer areasA. had little chance to go to collegeB. could often take part in the programC. found the program useful to their futureD. showed much interest in their high school experiments9.When the program was over, the studentsA. entered that collegeB. wrote research reportsC. paid for their research.D. found way to make money10.What would be the best tile for the text?A. A Program for Agricultural Science StudentsB. A Program for Animal Science StudentsC. A Program for Medical Science LoversD. A Program for Future Science Lovers四、词汇运用(10分)1.By the time you get home, I will have cleaned the house from top to____________ (底部).2.Every muscle in your body _____________(放松) and goes loose when you are sound asleep.3.We withdrew four thousand ____________(美金) from the bank after checking out of their hotel.4.These products are of high quality and able to compete(竞争)____________ (国际).5.We can use prefixes to make____________ (反义词) such as unhappy, dislike, impossible and so on.6.The man with a pair of sun glasses seems one of Britain’s best known rock ________(music).7.The Palace Museum which used to be different ____________(rule) home has turned into a museum.8.Malta is a beautiful _____________(Europe) county, which has a rich history and culture.9.The longer people have been out of job, the____________ (hard) it’ll be for them to find a satisfyingjob in the labour market.10.He regained his listening after_____________ (receive) proper treatment.五、动词填空(10分)1.You can never imagine the difficulty he had____________ (control) the company at the age of 21.2.I’m sorry I___________(forget) his address, would you please tell me again?3.The purpose(目的) of new technology is to make life easier, ____________ (not make) it moredifficult.4.Never ____________(copy) others’ answers without thinking is what we must keep in mind.5.I ____________(visit) Mount Fuji twice when I studied in the university.6.Could you tell us which place you ____________(wait) then? We couldn’t find you.7.Please cat more heathy food, otherwise you ____________(get) sick gradually(渐渐地).8.They never knew that population____________(become) a big problem in such short time.9.Since he ____________(stop) drinking, you needn’t worry about his health has much as before.10.I noticed him carelessly ____________(throw) some litter onto the ground. Ask him pick it up.六、阅读填空(5分) (每空一词)Taking out a cash advance (预支现金) is a bad idea. If you are ever in the position in whi ch you feel as if you have to take a cash advance, you should learn something about it.Understand what a cash advance is. Generally, when someone refers to a cash advance, they are talking about using their credit cards(信用卡) to get cash. Instead of paying for groceries or a book with your credit card and later paying back you credit card, you are borrowing cash from your credit card and later paying it back.Know they are expensive. There are two reasons why a cash advance is considered as an expensiveloan(借款): the high interest rate(利率). Now the average yearly percentage rate of credit card cash advance is 22.11 percent. With few exceptions, it’s more expensive to borrow actual cash from a credit card than to use your credit card to pay for things and services. The second reason is short grace period. For example, if youborrow $400, you are probably paying back your lender $460 in two weeks.Read the contract(合同). Because you'll never be able to carefully read a contract with a salesperson waiting at his or her desk or looking over your shoulder, you might want to consider taking the paperwork home and coming back next day--or at least in an hour or two, giving yourself some time to read through everything and think about what you're doing.七、完成句子1.此城自19世纪早期起因作为自然美景之地而举世闻名。

高二英语选修八_Unit3_单元测试卷(名师)
Unit3 单元测试卷(名师)Book 8 Unit 3 单元测试题一、阅读理解ADo you have imagination? Do you like to solve problems? Can you? If so, you could be the next great inventor. “But I'm just a kid”, you might be! Don't worry about a little thing like age. For example, one famous inventor-Benjamin Franklin-got his start when he was only 12.At that young age, he created paddles for his hands to help him swim faster. Finally, his creation led to what we know is called flippers!So, you don't have to be adult to be an inventor. One thing you do need, though, is something that kids have plenty of: curiosity and imagination. Kids are known for looking at things in new and unique ways.So, what should you do if you have what is a great idea for an invention? Talk to a friend or family member about it. Get input from others about your idea. Then ask them to help you create a working model-called a prototype(原型) of your idea.Once you have a prototype, you can test it. Sometimes your idea turns out to be not as great as you thought. At other times, though, you realize it is a good idea and your prototype can help you figure out how to make it even better.If your idea is really a good one, an adult can help you contact companies that might be interested in it. You will also want an adult's help to get a patent for your idea, so that it is protected and can't be stolen by someone else. If you need some inspiration, consider these kids and their inventions:Jeanie Low invented the Kiddie Stool when she was just 11. It's a folding stool that fits under the kitchen sink. Kids can unfold it and use it to reach the sink all by themselves.At the age of 15, Louis Braille invented the system named after him that allows the blind to read.Chelsea Lanmon received a patent when she was just 8 for the “pocket diaper(尿布)”, a new type of diaper that includes a pocket for holding baby wipes and powder. 1.By saying “But I'm just a kid”,you probably mean you .A.are too young to achieve anythingB.can do anything though you are youngC.are old enough to become an inventorD.have to learn knowledge from other people2. Kids are most likely to be inventors probably because they .A.would like to make friends with othersB.usually work hard at their lessons at schoolC.like playing all kinds of toys at homeD.think about things in quite different ways3.Who invented something that helps the blind to read?A.Jeannie Low.B.Benjamin Franklin.C.Chelsea Lanmon.

But now a study has found it really does help people nod off—if it is milked from a cow at night.Researchers have discovered that “night milk” contains more melatonin(褪黑激素), which has been proven to help people feel sleepy and reduce anxiety.The study, by researchers from Seoul, South Korea, involved mice being fed with dried milk powder made from cows milked both during the day and at night.Those given night milk, which contained 10 times the amount of melatonin, were less active and less anxious than those fed with the milk collected during daytime, according to the study published in The Journal of Medicinal Food.Night milk quickened the start of sleep and caused the mice to sleep longer.While the effect of cows milk harvested at different time has not been tested onhumans up to now, taking melatonin drugs has been suggested to those who are struggling to fall asleep at night.Previous studies have also indicated that milk can be excellent for helping sleep because of the calcium content, which helps people to relax.Milk is also sugar-free and additive-free with nutritionists recommending skimmed milk as the best choice before bed as it is the least fattening. The more fat you take in before bedtime, the greater burden you will put on your body at night.5.According to the text, the mice fed with daytime milk_______.A. started sleep more easilyB. were more anxiousC. were less activeD. woke up later6.Which of the following is true of melatonin according to the text?A.
