高一英语必修1 Unit 4单元同步练习一、阅读理解：AWhat is the greatest threat to mankind? Maybe different people come up with different answers. However, there is no denying the fact that the only threat to humankind, apart from humankind itself, is, without any doubt, the nature. Natural disasters are the result of natural environmental processes that have a damaging effect on people. Natural disasters can come in many forms: such as geological（地质的）events like earthquakes, tsunamis or mud-rock flows, climatic（气候的）events like storms, hurricanes or tornadoes and fire events like forest fires and wildfires.The damage done by natural disasters is mainly as a result of our inability to predict exactly when they will happen. Although great progress has been made in designing and developing forecasting models（预测模型）for some natural disasters, complete certainty is still impossible. Even to be pessimistic（悲观地说）, there is a possibility that human beings will never achieve accurate prediction（准确预测）of the happening of all natural disasters.What’s more, even though we were able to predict these disasters from nature, preventing them is equally impossible. So we only have two ways to both prevent injuries or deaths and reduce economic losses to the least（把经济损失减到最少）. These two methods are to prepare before a natural disaster comes to hit, and to manage the necessary resources and public services after a natural disaster strikes（袭击）.These two things have always been at the leading position（首要地位）of the projects of both national governments and international organizations. In the United States, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) is responsible for the “preparedness, response and recovery planning” of both man-made and natural disasters.Most natural disasters cannot be prevented, and both emergency preparation and good disaster management are the best ways to deal with them. Although natural events may appear to（似乎）serve no purpose（没有用）but simply to punish and destroy, natural disasters, a perfect symbol of the great power of the nature, are display（显示；表现）of our planet’s evolution（进化；演变）and its state of change.1. According to the passage, both humankind and nature _________.A. can be managed orderlyB. can threaten human beingsC. are hard to controlD. have a large family2. Which can’t be regarded as a similarity between tornadoes and earthquakes?A. They can not be prevented.B. They are both geological events.C.

The reason why natural disasters cause so much damage is that _________.A. it is very difficult to predict when exactly they will happenB. our forecasting equipment is too old for many natural disastersC. we don’t do enough preparation before natural disasters strikeD. we don’t have the necessary public services to use after natural disasters strike4. It may be concluded from the passage that _________.A. natural disasters can not be predicted at allB. human beings are pessimistic to the futureC. being well-prepared can avoid economic lossesD. good preparation and disaster management are advisable5.

The drive was typical, textbook beauty: mountains thick with rubber tree forests, pure tea plantations, banana palms and tiny Dai villages. Hidden among the fields of green, I spotted an odd collection of wooden boxes near a tent on the side of the road.1We run into the current home of Wei Dajing, a 17-year-old apprentice (学徒) bee-keeper who was manning his hives. Wei was fresh to the bee-keeping life, and had been on the job for just two months and was here to learn from a master bee-keeper. Their tent and hive set-up is always temporary.2“This particular spot was stationed at a sunny patch ofyellow flowers. Once these flowers die, the rubber trees will be flowering, so we will move toward them,” he told Sam.Like thieves in the night, the bee-keepers will stealthily pack up their hives in the dark once the bees go to sleep. “They are most active around midday when they are collecting their nectar (花蜜). 3” Wei explained.The hives were humming, and bees were invasively buzzing around Wei as he spoke to us. Pieces of fruit laid drying among the hives, used to feed the bees and give them an extra boost of energy once Wei bottled up their hard-earned honey. Sam, who also had a couple of his own small hives in his backyard, told us you must always leave a little bit of honey in the hive.4We waved goodbye to Wei. Back at Sam's house, he gave us a bowl of local honey. 5 Lacking the usual sweetness of honey but instead rich with a more savory, spiced flavor, it tasted just like China.A.It was smooth, thin and runny.B.Wei skillfully collected honey from the hives.C.Otherwise the bees would get fed up and abandon you.D.Maybe it is the flowers that give such unique taste to the honey.E.By 10 pm they are asleep in their hives, which is when we move.F.I asked our excellent guide and new best friend, Sam, to pull over.G.Wei and his master move their camp as the flowers bloom and die.六、书面表达注意：(1)短文必须包括以上所有内容，可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯；(2)词数：100左右。
