Restaurant Week.2.Which restaurant provides specialties in a limited time?A.Bounce Sporting Club.B.Beaumarchais.C.Pho Grand.D.Fatty Crab.3.From the text,we know that .A.a specialty is served in Peking Duck House anytimeB.Martini Week is a great pride of the AmericanC.18.88 is a minimum charge for these eventsD.Italian Restaurant Week will last two weeksBThere you are,looking through your WeChat moments or your Weibofeed,and you come across a post saying something like this:“I just got accepted to Harvard and Oiebody else’s?”This person is clear ly humblebragging.The term “humblebrag” was first coined back in by the late US comedian Harris Wittels,and it describes when someone makes a seemingly modest statement,but the actual purpose is to bring attention to something they are proud of.The eodesty-based humblebrag.The person wants to tell others:“I got accepted to Harvard and Oxford!”However,they don’t want to seem too proud of theiraccomplishments.So,instead,they word it in a way to be more modest and bring down the importance of their achievements.Although people who humblebrag think it will make them more likeable because they aren’t talking proudly about their victories,a study published in the JournalofPersonalityandSocialPsychology showed that humblebragging actually has the opposite effect.“Humblebragging doesn’t have the intended result because it seems insincere.That‘poor me’ attitude combined withself-promotion does not lead to a favorable impression,” said OvulSezer,the lead author of the study and an assistant professor of organizational behavior at the University of North Carolina,US.“Even simply bragging or complaining (抱怨) is better,because at least people eessages are seen as the sincere ones.”Sezer’s study also found that nearly 60% of humblebrags were complaint-based humblebragging,with most people humblebragging about their looks,followed by their money or wealth,and finally about their performance at work.“It’s such a common phenomenon.All of us know some people in our lives,whether in the social media or in the workplace,who do this annoying thing,” commented Sezer,adding that we all do it to some extent.So,if you want to share your achievements with others,what’s the best way to do it then?Sezer suggests that people admit their self-promotion and harvest the rewards of being sincere.She also suggests findinga go-between,adding,“If someone brags for you,that’s the best thing that can happen to you,because then you don’t seem like you’re bragging.”4.The underlined word “coined” in Paragraph 2 probably means “”.A.recognizedB.inventedC.boughtD.copied5.Which of the following can be considered as humblebragging?A.Hesitating to talk about your achievements.B.Bringing people’s attention to your achievements.C.Talking proudly about your achievements in the social media.D.Pretending to be modest when talking about your achievements.6.What is Sezer’s attitude towards humblebragging?A.Cautious.B.Ambiguous.C.Supportive.D.Disapproving.7.What does Sezer suggest people do when it comes to sharing achievements?A.Share their achievements with their best friends.B.Bring down the importance of their achievements.C.Find someone else to talk about their achievements.D.Talk about their achievements after someone else does.CIn the past five years,about 2.8 billion of school textbooks were sold per year,with total spending of 20 billion yuan,a news magazine reported,citing data released recently by the National Press and Publication Administration.If these textbooks are reused for one year,the costs saved can be used to help build around 40,000 Hope Schools in impoverished regions.The figures show that in ,the number of retailed teary and secondary schools was 2.93 billion copies,totaling 25.99 billion yuan.If all of them are reused,a total of over 20 billion yuan will be saved per year.Zhao Dehua,in charge of a company recycling resources,said many college graduates sell the teulated over the years at an average price of 1 yuan per kilogram.As these teostly used to producerecycled paper,the cost is even higher than that of producing raw paper as the processing procedure of recycled paper is complicated.At present,free teusic,art and PE for the nine-year compulsory education have been reused,but account for less than a fraction of the total number of textbooks.Because of the supply chain obstruction,which increases the costs of matching supply with demand,the lack of sound platforms and service supporting systems for the second-hand teost of the tepulsory education and higher education end up as waste.“Every year,second-hand booksellers collect textbooks at a price of about 4,000 yuan a ton,which is more than twice the price of ordinary waste paper,but there are few people who come to collect second-hand books,” Zhao Dehua said.Besides,the incomplete policies and regulations might bring second-hand book sales platforms and sellers to legal risks.“Establishing the system of textbook recycling can not only save resources,but also help to cultivate students’ consciousness and sense of responsibility,” said Zhu Pin,deputy hea d of a schoolof nine-year compulsory education in Jiangxi Province.The school has set up a system for reusing the textbooks and the books are disinfected every week.8.What can we learn from Paragraph 4?A.College students sell teake profits.B.Recycled paper is mainly used for environmental considerations.C.The cost of producing recycled paper is greater than that of producing raw paper.D.Certain groups of collectors tend to choose second-hand te of reusing textbooks?A.It is blocked because of lack of funds.B.The supply of recycled teeet the demand.C.The regulation of second-hand textbooks has not been carried out yet.D.A large number of second-hand textbooks are not used properly.10.What measure does the school take to use the second-hand textbooks?A.The school frees recycled te bacteria regularly.B.The school proposes regulations for wasting second-hand textbooks.C.The school calls on students to participate in the system of textbook recycling.D.The school requests the government’s sup port.11.What is the best title for the text?A.Textbooks Recycled for Less WasteB.Recycled Tepulsory EducationC.Reusing Teent and WalletD.Reusing Textbooks Good for CollectionDBig,old trees are dying faster than in thepast,leavingyounger,lessbiodiverse forests that store less carbon worldwide.They give us paper and fuel,as well as vital ecological services—like cleaning the air,storing carbon and providing habitat.We’re talking about trees,ofcourse.But human changes to the environment appear to be causing profound changes to trees around the world.In a new study,scientists reviewed global research on trends in tree seedlings,growth and death.They combined those data with an analysis of deforestation.And they found that worldwide,older trees are dying at a higher rate than in the past due to factors like rising air temperature,wildfire,drought and pathogens (病原体).“And most of the drivers of that decrease in large,old trees are increasing themselves.Foreperature is going up,droughts are more severe,andwildfire,windstorms and deforestation are all on the increase—although variable across the globe.The loss has already occurred,but we expect more continued loss ofbig,oldtrees,”said Nate McDowell,an earth scientist at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory,who was one of the study’s authors.“So if we have an increasing rate of death,particularly of the larger,oldertrees,what’s left are the younger trees.So that’s why,onaverage,through the loss of bigger,oldertrees,our forests are becoming inherently (内在地) younger and shorter.”This trend is a problem,because old trees are vitally important.“Forsure,the increase in death does limit the carbon storage of an ecosystem and can force the system to become a carbon source to the atmosphere.The second reason we care is from a biodiversity perspective:old trees tend to house higher biodiversity than young forests do.And the third reason is aesthetic:as a society,we care about these trees.We have national parks named after these big trees.So there’s a personal reason for people to care about this as well.”12.What has the new study found?A.Forests are getting younger and shorter.B.Many factors cause the death of young trees.C.Young trees are beneficial to humans in many ways.D.The death of big old trees doesn’t in fluence biodiversity.13.What do the underlined words “the drivers” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A.The death rates of big old trees.B.The trends in the death of big old trees.C.The human changes to the environment.D.The factors causing the high death rate of old trees.14.How is the significance of big old trees illustrated?A.By giving examples.B.By analyzing reasons.C.By listing facts.D.By providing figures.15.What’s the purpose of the teore trees.B.To illustrate a phenomenon about old trees.C.To share the findings of a new study about old trees.D.To analyze the reasons why some trees are dying faster.Ⅱ.七选五Don’t brag (自夸),but be proud of what you’ve done.These two pieces of advice were tough to balance before the social media existed. 1 We are unable to draw a line between the humble bragging and the straight-up bragging.But we certainly know that oversharing doesn’t do your friendship any favors.Social media bring us convenience. 2 Once upon a time,only your family and close friends would be there to see you eagerly open presents on your birthday party.Now the photos you take on your mobile phone will likely appear on your social media in a second.Maybe you just post it subconsciously.But your sharing behavior could easily be considered annoying or evennarcissistic(自恋的).3 Maybe we should all ask ourselves the question before hitting the share button.Our personal fame grows alongside our social media presence,so does the number of people we could potentially impress or bother.According t o therapist Jessica Michaels,providing“emotional conteight be seen as the bragging.Think about how you say something,not just what you say.Frame it in a way that makes it more of a sharing idea.Forexample,if you plan a party for your birthday,you could pos t “Hey,friends of mine!Let’s plan this together.Maybe we could all go” instead of saying “Oh I can’t wait to enjoy my party”. 4Remember,the original intention behind social media is a connector,and your true best friends definitely do want to know when things are becoming good for you.Next time when you post a photo of your fantastic winter vacation,foreake sure to tag your friends. 5A little bit of social media love goes a long way!A.To post or not to post?B.Will it make me a celebrity?C.Tell them you wish they were by your side.D.They are the most important friends in our life.E.Meanwhile,they can put us in danger of oversharing.F.It makes a big difference how you express your ideas.G.Even today’s share-it social media haven’t made it any easier.答案：Ⅰ.【语篇导读】这是一篇应用文。

2023版新教材高考英语一轮总复习：UNIT 4 单元主题训练Ⅰ.阅读理解2022·广州质检When my 8-month-old cries, I ask him if he's hungry, or wet or just needs a hug.“Babububuu，” he says.What I need is a baby cry translator. That's just what a team of researchers say they've developed.“Experienced nurses or pediatricians (儿科医师) can identify why baby is crying because they have experience，”says Lichuan Liu, a professor of electrical engineering at Northern Illinois University, who conducted the research. “We talked to them, and they mentioned that based on the cry's sound there're some clues (线索)．”So Liu set out to identify the features of cries that can help mark them as expressions of pain or discomfort. These features include differences in pitch (音高) and frequency. The team then developed an algorithm (算法) based on automatic speech recognition to detect and identify these features. This “cry language recognition algorithm” was trained on recordings of baby cries taken from a hospital. It uses compressed sensing, a process that reconstructs a signal based on incomplete data. It can identify a baby's cry against a background of, say, adult speech or loud television sounds. By classifying different cry features, like pitch, the algorithm can suggest whether the cry is due to sickness or pain, and identify the degree of urgency.The team had experienced pediatric care providers assess forty-eight baby cry recordings for probable cause of crying — hunger, tiredness, etc. They then compared these to the algorithm's assessments. The algorithm agreed with the humans 70% of the time. Generally, so-called “uncommon cry signals”— signs of pain or sickness — are high-pitched and very loud compared to ordinary crying.Liu and her team continue to train the technology for greater accuracy. They also plan to add more features, like the ability to identify and classify movement and facial expressions. This could help give a more detailed reading of baby's emotional (情感的) and physical state. They also hope to begin human trials in the near future.语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。

高考英语一轮总复习必修第一册Unit4NaturalDisasters提能训练(含答案及范文)
高考英语一轮总复习必修第一册提能训练：Unit 4 Natural DisastersⅠ.阅读理解A(2024·浙江1月高考题) On September 7, 1991, the costliest hailstorm (雹暴) in Canadian history hit Calgary's southern suburbs. As a result, since 1996 a group of insurance companies have spent about $2 million per year on the Alberta Hail Suppression Project. Airplanes seed threatening storm cells with a chemical to make small ice crystals fall as rain before they can grow into dangerous hailstones. But farmers in east-central Alberta—downwind of the hail project flights—worry that precious moisture (水分) is being stolen from their thirsty land by the cloud seeding.Norman Stienwand, who farms in that area, has been addressing public meetings on this issue for years. “Basically, the provincial government is letti ng the insurance companies protect the Calgary-Edmonton urban area from hail，” Mr. Stienwand says, “but they're increasing drought risk as far east as Saskatchewan.”The Alberta hail project is managed by Terry Krauss, a cloud physicist who works for Weath er Modification Inc. of Fargo, North Dakota. “We affect only a very small percentage of the total moisture in the air, so we cannot be causing drought，” Dr. Krauss says. “In fact, we may be helping increase the moisture downwind by creating wetter ground.”One doubter about the safety of cloud seeding is Chuck Doswell, a research scientist who just retired from the University of Oklahoma. “In 1999, I personally saw significant tornadoes (龙卷风) form from a seeded storm cell in Kansas，” Dr. Doswell says. “Doe s cloud seeding create killer storms or reduce moisture downwind? No one really knows, of course, but the seeding goes on.”Given the degree of doubt, Mr. Stienwand suggests, “it would be wise to stop cloud seeding.” In practice, doubt has had the opposite effect. Due to the lack of scientific proof concerning their impacts, no one has succeeded in winning a lawsuit against cloud-seeding companies. Hence, private climate engineering can proceed in relative legal safety.语篇导读：本文是一篇说明文。

UNIT 4 单元主题训练Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2022·佛山二模)The future of space exploration may depend on an art form from the past: origami (折纸艺术), the ancient art of paper folding.Researchers from Washington State University (WSU), US, have used origami to possibly solve the problem of storing and moving fuel to rocket engines, a key challenge in space travel, according to Newswise.They've developed a foldable plastic fuel “bladder (囊状物)” resistant to super cold temperatures, which could be used to store and pump fuel in spacecrafts of the future.Their findings have recently been published in the journal Cryogenics.“Folks have been trying to make bags for rocket fuel for a long time，” said Jake Leachman, one of the lead researchers.“We currently don't do large, long-duration trips because we can't store fuel long enough in space.”Meanwhile, NASA is also looking to paper folding to help observe distant planets.The agency is currently developing Starshade, a foldable, sunflower-shaped piece of hardware that would help block starlight and enable telescopes to view distant objects more clearly in space.“A huge part of my job is looking at something on paper and asking, ‘Can we fly this？’” Manan Arya, a technologist in California, said.“Once I realized this is how you fold spacecraft structures, I became interested in origami.I realized I was good at it and enjoyed it.Now, I fold constantly.”Using origami for space purposes isn't new, however.Solar arrays (太阳能阵列), experimental wings for space shuttle programs and an inflatable (可充气的) satellite were also inspired by origami in both past and present space projects.“With most origami, the magic comes from the folding，” Robert Salazar, who helped design the Starshade and now works on the Transformers project, said in a statement.“There are so many patterns to still be explored.”语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。
