Ⅰ阅读理解AJon Hoffman was sitting at a red light when he saw a man run out of a store carrying a plastic donation jar full of cash.Dressed in plain clothes，Jon Hoffman caught the man and pressed him against the hood(引擎盖) of his car. But Hoffman had trouble controlling the thief，and they got into a struggle.“The detective has a military background，and he said he thought the suspect must have a military background，too，because he was able to break away so easily，” a local police spokesperson said.The detective called out for help as a crowd gathered. Among those watching were Harvey and Kirby，two day laborers.Harvey did what has become common these days—he took out his phone to shoot the video. “I hate to say it，but I thought that this policeman was doing something stupid，”Harvey said. “But when he asked for help，I thought，well，there wouldn’t be shooting if I got over there in time.”Harvey jumped into action，while he was still recording the video. So did Kirby.“Harvey caught hold of the suspect’s arms，while Kirby seized his legs，and they were able to get the suspect to the ground to help Detective Hoffman put the handcuffs(手铐) on，”said the police spokesperson. The 27yearold suspect was charged with resisting arrest and other offenses. The charity jar he stole held less than$50.“I’ve been on the wrong side of the law several times in my life，”Harvey said. “It feels good to be on the right side and do something positive.”After the arrest，the three men got to know each other at a local steak house—Hoffman’streat，as a thank you.【解题导语】本文是一篇新闻故事，讲述了一位侦探在两位临时工的协助下制服一名嫌疑人的过程。

I told my friend Graham that I often cycle two miles from my house to the town centre but unfortunately there is a big hill on the route. He replied, “You mean fortunately.”He explained that I should be glad of the extra exercise that the hill provided.My attitude to the hill has now changed. I used to complain as I approached it but now I tell myself the following. This hill will exercise my heart and lungs. It will help me to lose weight and get fit. It will mean that I live longer. This hill is my friend. Finally I comfort myself with the thought of all those silly people who pay money to go to a gym and sit on stationary exercise bicycles when I can get the same value for free. I have a smile of satisfaction as I reach the top of the hill.Problems are there to be faced and overcome. We cannot achieve anything with an easy life.anyone who tells you that you can’t do this or that. That’s nonsense. Make up your mind, and you’ll never use crutches or a stick, andthen have a go at everything. Go to school, and join in all the games you can. Go anywhere you want to. But never, never let them persuade you that things are too difficult or impossible.”The biographies of great people are full of examples of how they took steps to overcome the difficulties they faced. The common thread(思路) is that they did not become depressed. They chose their attitude. They chose to be positive. They took on the challenge. They won. Nevertheless, there is still the problem of how you change your attitude towards adversity. 【解题导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。

课时提升作业三十八选修8Unit 3Inventors and inventions(限时35分钟)Ⅰ. 阅读理解AAt the end of every year, Time picks the best 25 inventions that are “making the world better and smarter”. Here we h ave picked three of this year’s inventions that could be a part of your life in the near future. The levitating(悬浮的) lightbulbThis special lightbulb was invented by US artist and scientist Simon Morris. He got the idea of making a lightbulb float from hoverboards(悬浮滑板), which he used to dream of having as a kid.But the floating is not the most amazing part. The rejection force between the opposite ends of the magnets(磁铁), which were put in the bottom of the bulb and in the wooden base, does the j ob. What’s new here is a technology called induction (电磁感应). It allows the lightbulb to get power from the base even they are not in contact.Shoes that tie themselvesThey’re not what you think—shoelaces that tie themselves in the way we tie them. Instead, the new shoes have small motors that control their laces. When you step in them, your feet will hit a sensor(传感器)in the shoes and the motor will automatically tighten the laces.But the shoes weren’t just designed for lazy people’s needs. Th ey could actually give athletes an advantage during competition. They are also useful for people who cannot move their arms or fingers easily.The no-touch thermometer(体温计)Taking your body temperature usually means putting a thermometer in your armpits (腋窝) and staying still for minutes. It may be easy for you, but it’s an impossible task for little kids.Now, with the new thermometer, users can simply put it 2. 5 centimeters from a patient’s forehead and press the button, and it can get the reading in two seconds.【文章大意】本文为科技说明文。
