Some tourists go to see battlefields or religious shrines. Others are looking for culture, or simply want to have their pictures taken in front of famous places. But most European tourists are looking for a sunny beach to lie on.Northern European are willing to pay a lot of money and put up with a lot of inconveniences for the sun because they have so little of it. Residents of cities like London, Copenhagen, and Amsterdam spend a lot of their winter in the dark because the days are so short, and much of the rest of the year in the rain. This is the reason the Mediterranean has always attracted them. Every summer, more than 25 million people travel to Mediterranean resorts and beaches for their vacation. They all come for the same reason: sun!The huge crowds mean lots of money for the economies of Mediterranean countries. Italy's 30，000 hotels are booked solid every summer. And 13 million people camp out on French beaches, parks and roadsides. Spain's long sandy coastline attracts more people than anywhere else. 37 million tourists visit yearly, or_one_tourist_for_every_person_living_in_Spain.But there are signs that the area is getting more tourism than it can handle.The Mediterranean is already one of the most polluted seas on earth. And with increased tourism, it's getting worse. The French can't figure out what to do with all the garbage left by campers around St Tropez. And in many places, swimming is dangerous because of pollution.None of this, however, is spoiling anyone's fun. The Mediterranean gets more popular every year with tourists. Obviously, they don't go there for clean water and solitude. They tolerate traffic jams and seem to like crowded beaches. They don't even mind the pollution. No matter how dirty the water is, the coastline still looks beautiful. And as long as the sun shines, it's still better than sitting in the cold rain in Berlin, London, or Oslo.11. The writer seems to imply that Europeans travel mostly for the reason that________．A．they want to see historic remains or religious spotsB．they are interested in different cultural traditions and social customs C．they would like to take pictures in front of famous sitesD．they wish to escape from the cold, dark and rainy days back at home12. In Paragraph 2，cities like London，Copenhagen，and Amsterdam are mentioned________．A．to show that they are not good cities in terms of geography and climate B．to tell us how wealthy their residents areC．to suggest that these cities lack places of historic interest and scenic beauty D．to prove that they have got more tourism than they can handle13. According to the passage, which of the following countries attracts more tourists than the others?A．Italy. B．Spain.C．Greece. D．France.14. The underlined part in Paragraph 3 means ________．A．all the 37 million people living in Spain are touristsB．every year almost as many tourists visit Spain as there are people living in that countryC．every person living in Spain has to take care of a touristD．every Spanish is visited by a tourist every year15．According to the passage, which of the following factors might spoil the tourists' fun at Mediterranean resorts and beaches?A．Polluted water. B．Crowded buses.C．Traffic jams. D．Rainy weather.BIf you were walking around a supermarket and saw a woman with a shaved head, a ring through her nose, a tattoo design on her arm and she has a small child in her shopping trolley,_what would your opinion be? Do you think this kind of body decoration is attractive or ugly? Different people have different ideas. The following are some examples of body decoration from around the world.In many parts of Africa, it is thought that an attractive girl should have really shiny skin.On Bali, a little island in Indonesia, they believe that a beautiful woman or handsome man must have perfectly straight, flat teeth. The Balinese believe that teeth with pointed edges make you look like an ugly wild animal. So when a girl or boy becomes a teenager, he or she is taken to a special person in their village who will file off teeth points to make them smooth and flat. There is no anesthetic (麻药) and this tooth filing is really painful. It is a kind of test. If you can stand it without screaming or crying too much, then you are thought ready to become an adult.In Myanmar, there is a small group of people who are called the “Papaung”. They believe that a woman can only be really beautiful if she has a long neck. I mean a very long neck. Now you might think that you are either born with a long or short neck and that there's nothing whatever you can do about it. But you would be wrong! At around the age of 5, a Papaung girl has heavy metal rings fitted around her neck, tightly between the chin and shoulders. Each year more rings are added and very, very slowly their weight pushes the shoulders down, in this way making the neck look longer.A Papaung woman will wear her neck rings all her life, never once taking them off.So now I'm sure you will all agree that different people have different ideas about what is beautiful.16．What is mainly talked about in Paragraph 1?A．Women's design. B．Beautiful body decoration.C．Attractive decoration. D．Body decoration.17．What does the underlined word “trolley” mean?A．Handbag. B．Luggage.C．Shopping cart. D．Basket.18．On Bali, it is believed that ________.A．a person with sharp teeth looks uglyB．a person with straight, flat teeth looks uglyC．a teenager's teeth points must be filed off with anestheticD．no one will scream or cry when having his/her teeth points filed off19．Which of the following is NOT true?A．Most African people think that a girl with shiny skin is beautiful.B．Many people think that a woman with a ring through nose is neither attractive nor ugly.C．It is thought that a beautiful woman should have straight, flat teeth on Bali.D．Some people think it beautiful that a woman has a long neck in Myanmar.20．What is the best title of the passage?A．Who is a beautiful woman?B．What is beautiful?C．Different ideas about decorationD．Body decorationⅢ.读写任务阅读下面的短文，然后按照要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。

There are different types of cloning however, and cloning technologies can be used for other purposes besides producing the genetic twin of another organism.Scientists have been cloning animals for many years. In 1952, the first animal, a tadpole, was cloned. Before the creation of Dolly, the first mammal cloned from the cell of an adult animal, clones were created from embryonic cells. Since Dolly, researchers have cloned a number of large and small animals including sheep, goats, cows, mice, pigs ,cats, rabbits, and a gaur. All these clones were created using nuclear transfer technology.汉语⼤意：当媒体报道的克隆的消息，他们通常所说的只有⼀种称为⽣殖性克隆的类型。

The Internet plays a big part in human life. We use it for work and entertainment. We can find new recipes on the Internet or advice on staying healthy. We can even use it to learn a new language. We use the Internet to connect with family and friends and stay in touch with issues we care about.The list goes on and on.As far as the Internet being a part of our lives—well, that train has left the station. That expression means there is no going back. If you prefer boating, you can say that ship has sailed.So, there may be no going back to an Internet-free life. But can using the Internet too much be bad for our health?It might be, say researchers.Study results show that teens who spend at least 14 hours a week online were more likely to have high blood pressure.High blood pressure makes your heart and blood vessels work too hard. Over time, this extra strain increases your risk of a heart attack or stroke.High blood pressure can also cause heart and kidney disease. It is also closely linked to some forms of dementia, a brain disease. Dementia is marked by memory disorders, personality changes, and a reduced ability to reason.Let’s introduce something about the study of it.The Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit, Michigan did the study. It involved 335 young people, from 14 to 17 years old. One hundred thirty-four of the teens were described as “heavy Internet users”. Researchers found that out of these 134 teens, 26 had high blood pressure.The researchers say the study is the first to connect heavy web use and high blood pressure. Other research has connected that heavy Internet use with health problems including anxiety, depression and obesity.The lead researcher of the study is Andrea Cassidy-Bushrow. In a statement shes aid, “Using the Internet is part of our daily life but it shouldn’t consume us. ”For the purpose of the study, she explains, teens considered heavy Internet users were online on “average 25 hours a week. ”Ms Cassidy-Bushrow adds that it is important for teens to take “regular breaks from their computers or smartphones” and to do some “kind of physical activity. ”She also suggests that parents limit their children’s use of the Internet to two hours a day, five days a week.【文章大意】互联网如此有用并且融入我们的生活, 但过度使用它, 会导致多种健康问题。

课时作业37 CloningⅠ.阅读理解(2015·山西忻州一中月考)Cooking food over a smoky fire is found everywhere in the world. It is often difficult to find wood for the fire. People who do not have wood must spend large amounts of money on cooking fuel. However, there is a much easier way to cook food using energy from the sun. Solar cookers, or ovens, have been used for centuries.A Swiss scientist made the first solar oven in 1767. Today, people are using solar cookers in many countries around the world. People use solar ovens to cook food and to heat drinking water to kill bacteria and other harmful organisms.There are three kinds of solar ovens. The first is a box cooker. It is designed with a special wall that shines or reflects sunlight into the box. Heat gets trapped under a piece of glass or plastic covering the top of the cooker. A box oven is effective for slow cooking of large amounts of food.The second kind of solar oven is a panel(嵌板式) cooker. It includes several flat walls, or panels, which directly reflect the sun's light onto the food. The food is inside a separate container of plastic or glass that traps heat energy. People can build panel cookers quickly and with very few supplies. They do not cost much. In Kenya, for example, panel cookers are being manufactured for just two dollars.The third kind of solar oven is a parabolic(抛物线的) cooker. It has rounded walls that aim sunlight directly into the bottom of the oven. Food cooks quickly in parabolic ovens. However, these cookers are hard to make. They must be reai med often to follow the sun. Parabolic cookers can also cause burns and eye injuries if they are not used correctly.You can make solar ovens from boxes or heavy paper. They will not catch fire. Paper burns at 232 degrees Celsius. A solar cooker never gets that hot. Solar ovens cook food at low temperatures over long periods of time. This permits people to leave food to cook while they do other things.To learn more about solar cooking, you can write to Solar Cookers International. The postal address is ni neteennineteen TwentyFirst Street, Sacramento, California, ninefiveeightoneone, USA. Or you can visit the group's Internet Web site. The address is .1．How long is the first solar cookers invented?A．About 1767 year.B．More than 300 years.C．More than 250 years.D．Less than 250 years.2．In which of the following column could we find the passage?A．Development Report.B．Agricultural Report.C．Health Report.D．Education Report.3．Which of the following is TRUE?A．The first suncooker was made by a Swiss soldier.B．Parabolic cookers can be dangerous sometimes.C．Suncookers often get hotter than 232℃.D．It is more expensive to cook with a suncooker than on fire.4．Which of the following could be the best title of the passage?A．Different Ways of CookingB．The History of the Solar CookersC．How to Choose Solar CookersD．Cooking Meals with the Sun for Fuel答案与解析1．D 细节理解题。

课时作业37Ⅰ.阅读理解(2019·烟台一中高三适应性考试)China became the first country to clone a monkey using nonreproductive cells, reducing the need to breed lab monkeys and paving the way for more accurate, effective and affordable animal tests for new drugs, scientists said on Thursday.By December, the Institute of Neuroscience of the Chinese Academy of Sciences had created two clone macaques(猕猴) named“Zhong Zhong” and “Hua Hua” by nuclear transferring of somatic cells(体细胞)—any cell in the organism other than reproductive cells.Tetra, a monkey born in 1999, is the world's first cloned monkey, but it was done by using a simpler method called embryo splitting(胚胎分割); but it could only generate four cloned offspring at a time and cannot be genetically changed to suit the experimental need.Cloning a monkey using somatic cells has been a worldclass challenge because it is a primate(灵长类) that shares its genetic makeup, and therefore all of its complexity, with humans.For drug and other lab tests, scientists have to purchase monkeys from all over the world, which is costly and bad for the environment, and produces inaccurate results because each monkey might have different genes.By cloning monkey using somatic cells, we can massively cultivate large numbers of genetically identical offspring in a short amount of time, and we can even change their genes to suit our needs. This can save time, cut down experiment costs, and produce more accurate results, leading to more effective medicine.Sun Qiang, d irector of the nonhuman primate research facility at the institute, said most of the drug trials are currently done on lab mice. However, drugs that work on mice might not work or even have severe side effects on humans because the two species are so different.“Monkeys and humans are both primates, so they are much closely related and testing on monkeys is supposed to be as effective as testing on humans，”he said. This is especially useful in testing drugs for neural (神经的) diseases such as Parkinson's disease, metabolic syndrome (代谢综合征) and immune system diseases, and tumors, he added.“This achievement will help China lead the world research in the international science projects related to neural mapping of primate brains，”he said. “However, bio labs from the United States, Japan, and European countries are also very capable, and they will quickly catch up with China after the monkey cloning technology ismade public，” Sun added.“This means we have to innovate continuously and work extra hard this year to stay ahead，” he said.本文是一篇科普类说明文。

Some parents can understand that wish, but it must first be recognized that the copy would be a new baby and not the lost child. Here lies the_difficulty,_for the sad parents are seeking not a new baby but a return of the dead one. Since the original would be fondly remembered as having particular talents and interests, would not the parents expect the copy to be the same? It is possible, however, that the copy would develop quite differently. Is it fair to the new child to be placed in a family with such unnatural expectations?Copying is also suggested as a means by which parents can have the child of their dreams. Couples might choose to have a copy of a film star, baseball player or scientist, depending on their interests. But because personality is only partly the result of genetic inheritance, conflicts would be sure to arise if the cloned child failed to develop the same interests as the original. What if the copy of Einstein shows no interest in science? Or the baseball playerturns to acting? Success_also_depends_on_fortune. What if the child does not live up to the hopes and dreams of their parents simply because of bad luck?Every child should be wanted for itself, as a person. In making a copy of oneself or some famous person, a parent is purposely specifying the way he or she wishes that child to develop. In recent years, particularly in the U．S., much importance has been placed on the right of individuals to reproduce in ways that they wish. So I suggest there should be a greater need to consider the interests of the child and to reject these suggested uses of cloning.11．The underlined part “the difficulty” in Paragraph 1 refers to ________.A．cloning a baby is difficultB．it's difficult to give birth to a new babyC．the dead child can't come back againD．the cloned baby can't replace the lost child12．According to the passage，one of the reasons why couples usually decide to clone babies is ________.A．to bring back a child killed unfortunatelyB．to exchange their childrenC．to develop the same interests as their childD．to succeed in making fortune13．The sentence “Success also depends on fortune” implies that ________.A．the result may be unpredictableB．the child does not live up to the parents' hopesC．the cloned child fails to develop the same interest as the originalD．the baseball player turns to acting14．We CAN'T conclude that ________ according to the observation made by the author.A．it's important to consider the interests of the child rather than the suggested uses of cloningB．parents can't expect to get the lost child back by cloning a new babyC．much importance should be placed on the right of parents to reproduce babies in ways that they wishD．every child should be wanted as a unique individualBRide With The LeaderCitySights NY has become the recognized leader in NYC's sightseeing.We operate the first topdeckseatingonly buses.

well.Then，suddenly，the interviewer asks an unexpected question，“Which is more important，law or love？”Job applicants in the West increasingly find themselves asked strange questions like this.And the signs are that this is beginning to happen in China.Employers want people skilled，enthusiastic and devoted.So these are the qualities that any reasonably intelligent job applicants will try to show no matter what his or her actual feelings are.In response，employers are increasingly using questions which try and show the applicant's true personality.The question in the first paragraph comes from a test called the Keirsey Personality Sorter.It is an attempt to discover how people solve problems，rather than what they know.This is often called an aptitude test(能力倾向测验)．According to Mark Baldwin many job applicants in China are finding this type of questions difficult.When a Chinese person fills out an aptitude test he or she will think there is a right answer and they may fail because they try to guess what theexaminer wants to see.This is sometimes called the prisoner's dilemma.Applicants are trying to act cleverly in their own interest.But they fail because they don't understand what the interviewer is looking for.Remember that in an aptitude test，the correct answer is always the honest answer.16．The writer wrote the passage to ________．A．give a piece of advice for job intervieweesB．tell you how to meet a job interviewerC．describe the aptitude testD．advice you how to find a job17．Why do the interviewers ask such questions?A．They want to discover what the interviewees know.B．They are curious about the answers.C．They try to discover the ability of the interviewees' solving problems.D．They just ask questions without thinking much.18．According to the writer，in an aptitude test，Chinese job applicants should ________．A．not tell the truthB．learn to tell what they really thinkC．be more enthusiasticD．try to find out what the examiner really wants to know19．From the passage we know that ________．A．job applicants are always asked such questionsB．more Chinese applicants fail to find a jobC．applicants should not act as reasonably as a prisonerD．the aptitude test is becoming popular worldwideBImagine it's 2035.You have a good job，a big family and you're about 40 years old.Welcome to your future life.Getting ready for work，you pause in front of the mirror.“Turn red，” you say.Your shirt changes from sky blue to deep red.Tiny preprogrammed electronics are rearranged in your shirt to change its color.Looking into the mirror，you find it hard to believe that you are 40.You look much younger.With amazing advances in medicine，people in your generation may live to be 150 years old.You're not even middleaged.As you go into the kitchen and prepare to pour your breakfast cereal(谷类食物) into a bowl，you hear: “To lose weight，you shouldn't eat that，” from your shoes.They read the tiny electronic code on the cereal box to find out the nutrition details.You decide to listen to your shoes.“Kitchen，what can I have for breakfast？” A list of possible foods appear on the counter as kitchen checks its food supplies.“Ready for your trip to space.” You ask your son and daughter.Before the 21st century only specially trained astronauts went into space—and very few of them.Today anyone can go to space for day trips or longer vacation.Your best friend even works in space.Handing your children three strawberries each，you add，“The doctor said you need these for space travel.” Thanks to medical advice，vaccination shots(疫苗注射) are a thing of the past.Ordinary foods contain specific vaccines.With the berries in their mouths，the kids head for the front door.It's time for you to go to work.Your car checks your fingerprints and unlocks the doors.“My office.Autopilot.” You command. Your car drives itself down the road and moves smoothly into traffic on the highway.You sit back and unroll your enewspaper.The latest news downloads and fills the viewer.Looking through the pages，you watch the news as video films rather than read it.20．What changes the color of your shirt?A．The mirror. B．The shirt itself.C．The counter. D．The medicine.21．How do the shoes know that you shouldn't eat breakfast cereal?A．By pouring breakfast cereal into a bowl.B．By listening to the doctor's advice.C．By testing the food supplies in the kitchen.D．By checking the nutrition details of the food.22．How is the text organized?A．In order of time.B．In order of character.C．In order of preference.D．In order of importance.Ⅲ.情景作文假设你是李华，你的澳大利亚朋友Dick写信给你，询问你校有关减轻中学生学习负担的情况。

高考英语一轮复习Unit2Cloning课时作业含解析新人教版选修8081349课时作业Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2019·潍坊市高三一模)Blind Dates at Alchemy in the DarkSoup on my nose，a nearly spilt glass of wine and chocolate down my white blouse，as blind dates suggest，this was a really messy one.I had never made so much noise with plates and glasses，nor had I dined with a never－before－met companion.This blind date was quite different: we could see nothing.“Put your left hand on my shoulder，and then we'll take small steps forward，” said Michael，the visually impaired waiter，in an East London accent.We three felt our way carefully bumping past heavy curtains before being arranged at the dining table，where we would eat and drink three completely secret and unseen courses.Welcome to Alchemy in the Dark，Hong Kong's first restaurant in total darkness.Upon arrival，diners briefly tell the chef about their allergies(过敏性反应)，lock away their mobile phones and enter the windowless restaurant，which can seat 25 customers.When the meal is over，the contents of the delicious menu are shown —often to the diners' surprise.“This is definitely duck，” my companion said，while eating chicken.“This soup，” I declared，“is carrot and coriander.” Even the too－close smell did not reveal the real tomato and cumin flavors.Dining in the dark changes everything: the sense of smell is heightened，manners go out of the window — using your hands to feel around the plates becomes normal — and there is a strange thrill in being able to ignore your facial expressions.Best of all？You don't have to spend hours beforehand wondering what to wear.Alchemy in the Dark is at 16 Arbuthnot Road，Central，tel: 6821 2801 and is open Monday to Saturday，from 7 pm to 11 pm.Reservations are required.A three－course meal with wine pairing costs HK$700 per person.5% of all profits go to The Hong KongSociety for the Blind.【语篇解读】本文为一篇记叙文。
