高中英语人教版必修四习题:Unit 5课下能力提升二十 含答案
Unit 5 课下能力提升(二十)Ⅰ.阅读理解Millions of people pass through the gates of Disney's entertainment parks in California, Florida and Japan each year. What makes these places an almost universal attraction? What makes foreign kings and queens and other important people want to visit these Disney parks? Well, one reason is the way they're treated once they get there. The people at Disney go out of their way to serve their “guests”, as they prefer to call them, and to see that they enjoy themselves.All new employee s, from vice presidents to parttime workers, begin their employment by attending Disney University and taking “Traditions Ⅰ”. Here, they learn about the company's history, how it is managed, and why it is successful. They are shown how each department relates to the whole. All employees are shown how their part is important in making the park a success.After passing “Traditions Ⅰ”, the employees go on to do more specialized training for their specific (具体的) jobs. No detail (细节) is missed. A simple job like taking tickets requires four eighthour days of training. When one ticket taker was asked why it took so much training for such a simple, ordinary job, he replied, “What happens if someone wants to know where the restrooms are, when the parade starts or what bus to take back to the campgrounds?... We need to know the answers or where to get them quickly. Our constant aim is to help our guests enjoy the party.”Even Disney's managers get involved in the daily management of the park. Every year, the managers leave their desks and business suits and put on special service clothes. For a full week, the bosses sell hot dogs or ice cream, take tickets or drive the monorail, and take up any of the 100 jobs that make the entertainment park come alive. The managers agree that this week helps them to see the company's goals more clearly.All these efforts to serve the public well have made Walt Disney Productions famous. Disney is considered by many as the best mass service provider in America or the world. As one longtime business observer once said, “How Disney treats people, communicates with them, rewards them, is in my view the very reason for his fifty years of success ...I have watched, very carefully and with great respect and admiration, the theory and practice of selling satisfaction and serving millions of people on a daily basis, successfully. It is what Disney does best.”1.The first day they come to Disney parks, all new employees ________.A.begin by receiving onthejob trainingB.must learn several jobsC.begin as ticket takersD.have already attended Disney University2.Each year, managers wear special service clothes and work in the park to ________.A.set a good example to employeesB.remind themselves of their beginnings at DisneyC.gain a better view of the company's objectivesD.replace employees on holiday3.Which is the following is NOT true according to the passage?A.Tourists learn the history of Disney in its entertainment parks.B.Disney attracts people almost from all over the world.C.Parades are regularly held in Disney's entertainment parks.D.Disney's managers are able to do almost all kinds of work in the Disney parks.4.How long does it take to train employees for a simple job like taking tickets?A.A week. B.Four weeks.C.Thirtytwo hours. D.Eight hours.Ⅱ.任务型阅读I was heading home after a long day at work, and I was tired and looking forward to getting home.

高中英语人教版必修四习题:Unit 2课下能力提升五含答案
Unit 2 课下能力提升(五)阅读理解ALONDON (Reuters) — Organic (有机的) fruit, delivered right to the doorstep. That is what Gabriel Gold prefers, and he is willing to pay for it. If this is not possible, the 26yearold computer technician will spend the extra money at the supermarket buying organic food.“Organic produce is always better,” Gold said. “The food is free of pesticides (农药), and you are generally supporting family farms instead of large farms. And more ofte n than not it is locally grown and seasonal, so it is more tasty.” Gold is one of a growing number of shoppers buying into the_organic_trend,_and supermarkets across Britain are counting on more like him as they grow their organic food business. But how many shoppers really know what they are getting, and why are they willing to pay a higher price for organic produce? Market research shows that Gold and others who buy organic food can generally give clear reasons for their preferences — but their knowledge of organic food is far from complete. For example, small amounts of pesticides can be used on organic products. And about three quarters of organic food in Britain is not local but imported to meet growing demand.” The demand for organic food is increasing by about one third every year, so it is a very fastgrowing market, said Sue Flock, a specialist in this line of business.1.More and more people in Britain are buying organic food because ________.A.they are getting richerB.they can get the food anywhereC.they consider the food free of pollutionD.they like homegrown fruit2.According to the text, most organic produce sold in Britain ________.A.grows indoors all year roundB.is produced outside BritainC.is grown on family farmsD.is produced on large farms3.The underlined words “the organic trend” in the text probably mean “________”.A.growing interest in organic foodB.better qualities of organic foodC.rising market for organic foodD.higher prices of organic food4.What is the best title for this news story?A.Organic Food — Healthy, or Just for the Wealthy?B.The Making of Organic Food in BritainC.Organic Food — to Import or NotD.Good Qualities of Organic FoodBMy son Daniel's love for surfing began at the age of 13. After school he wore his wet suit, walked out beyond the surf line and waited to be challenged by hi s three to sixfoot companions. Daniel's love of the ride was tested one fateful afternoon.“Your son's been in an accident,” the lifeguard (救生员) reported over the phone to my husband Mike. “When he surfaced to the top of the water, the point of the board was heading toward his eye.” Mike rushed him to the emergency room. He received 26 stitches (缝针) from the corner of his eye to the bridge of his nose.I was on an airplane flying home from a speaking arrangement while Dan's eye was being stitched. Mike drove directly to the airport after they left the doctor's office. He greeted me at the gate and told me Dan was waiting in the car. “Daniel?” I questioned.I remember thinking the waves must have been awful that day. “He's been in an accident, but he's goin g to be fine.” A travelling working mother's worst nightmare had come true.I sobbed telling Daniel how awful I felt about not being there when the lifeguard called. “It's okay, Mom,” he comforted me. “You don't know how to surf anyway.” “What?” I asked, confused by his reason. “I'll be fine. The doctor says I can go back in the water in eight days.” Was he out of his mind? For the next seven days he kept pressing me to let him go back on the board. One day after I repeated “No” to him for the 100th time, h e said, “Mom, you taught us never to give up what we love.”I gave in.I was tested in my own backyard on an important principle that I teach audiences in distant cities: Passionate (热情的) people hug what they love and never give up.5.While surfing that afternoon, Daniel ________.A.was in trouble beyond the safe surf lineB.was given several tests by the lifeguardC.was challenged by several of his friendsD.was hurt in the eye by his surfing board6.What made the author feel confused?A.Daniel's strong desire to surf again.B.Daniel's going mad after the accident.C.Daniel's dream about his surfing career.D.Daniel's confidence in recovering soon.7.We can infer that the author was a ________.A.stewardess B.surf trainerC.housewife D.motivational speaker8.What lesson did the author learn from her son?A.Enthusiastic people won't give up their dreams easily.B.A boy may seek his interest in surfing out of madness.C.Children sometimes have their own opinions about life.D.Mothers regret all the time for leaving their children alone.CRoad traffic crashes kill 1.25 million people each year worldwide. The statistics are part of the “Global Status Report on Road Safety 2015”. The report surveyed 180 countries, and it shows the number of annual deaths from traffic crashes is stabilizing (稳定). And that is good news as the number of motor vehicles grows worldwide. But the data also show that road crashes are the No. 1 cause of death among young people aged 15 to 29. Young adults around the world are the worst driving risks. Even in the U.S., drivers aged 15 to 24 account for about 30 percent of all drivingrelated accidents. But the World Health Organization (WHO) says they are preventable.The WHO report also finds a big gap in road safety and deaths between poor and rich countries. Poor countries have only 54 percent of the world's vehicles. But those countries have some of the worst safety statistics in the re port. “Africa has only two percent of the world's vehicles, but has the highest death rate on the road,” says Etienne Krug, the head of the WHO Department of Noncommunicable Diseases. Sweden, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom are leaders in preventing traffic deaths.Stronger road safety laws and stricter vehicle safety requirements in developing countries would prevent many accidents. Laws can quickly influence driving behavior. In only three years, 17 countries became safer by putting tougher road safety laws into effect. Some of those laws include banning drunk driving, requiring cyclists and motorcycle drivers to wear helmets and making safety belts mandatory (强制性的) in all vehicles. Good injury care after a crash can cut the number of deaths from road injuries in half. Of course, there are also many other ways to make roads safer.9.The underlined word “they” in Paragraph 1 probably refers to ________.A.motor vehicles B.the statisticsC.traffic crashes D.young drivers10.What can be inferred from Paragraph 2?A.People in developed countries are very skilled at driving.B.Africa has to take some measures to prevent traffic deaths.C.The Netherlands has done the best in avoiding traffic accidents.D.Poor countries need to buy fewer cars to reduce traffic accidents.11.What is most likely to be talked about in the paragraph following the text?A.More ways to make roads safer.B.Suggestions on good injury care.C.The number of deaths from accidents.D.Other road safety laws in poor countries.12.The text is mainly about ________.A.the danger of driving aloneB.the No.1 killer among the youthC.the ways to avoid road accidentsD.the importance of helmets in driving cars课下能力提升(五)1.解析:选D 细节理解题。

2021-2022学年高中英语外研版必修四习题:课下能力提升(二十) Word版含答案
Module 5 课下力量提升(二十)Ⅰ.阅读理解This was something that I'd wanted to do since I turned 10 and began to consider myself “grown up”.Deciding where to go was difficult. I had to pick somewhere small enough that I wouldn't get too lost. This,and the fact that you can drink from age 16, made Venice a good choice for our trip.The absence of cars meant that we were less likely to be run over, and the landmark of the Grand Canal made it easy to find our way around. Venice is small, so everything is within walking distance. My friend, Kat, had been there not long before, and knew the way around a bit.I had planned to eat nothing but chocolate during the holiday. Instead I found myself living on spaghetti. We spent most of our days wandering around without much purpose —I have parents who like to see everything if they stay with me.Our evenings were much the same, only colder. I had believed that we would meet lots of new friends, and maybe even some Italian boys, but being unable to speak a word of the language made this difficult. We found a little square filled with Italian students, but soon realized that they came here not to meet people but to drink wine with their friends. We were less disappointed by this discovery than you would have thought — it turns out that cheap wine makes an excellent replacement for friends. By the close of the second day we paid 6 to go into a church and have a look around. We visited the Peggy Guggenheim Museum of Modern Art the next day. I was surprised to find myself enjoying the art — perhaps because for the first time I hadn't been forced into it.1.Why did the writer choose to travel to Venice?A.Because there was something he wanted to do.B.Because Venice is small and he wouldn't get lost there.C.Because he began to consider himself grown up.D.Because he knew the language spoken there well.2.From the article, we can know that ________.A.the writer liked the art all the timeB.the writer didn't like going to the museum beforeC.the writer went everywhere on footD.the writer did everything alone3.The writer was disappointed because ________.A.he wandered around without much purposeB.he paid 6 to go into a churchC.the Italian boys were not interested in making new friendsD.the absence of cars made him less likely to be run over4.How many days did the trip last?A.One day. B.Two days.C.Three days. D.Four days.Ⅱ.任务型阅读As we all know, different countries have different cultures. The cultures of the East and the West really distinguish each other a lot. 1.________The origin of the eastern cultures is mainly from two countries: China and India. Both of the two cultures are fostered by rivers —the Yellow River in China and the Hindu River in India. 2.________ Then in Tang Dynasty of China, the Chinese culture gradually went overseas to Japan, mixed into the Japanese society and shaped the Japanese culture nowadays. Though a bit different from the Chinese one, it belongs to the same system.When the two mother rivers gave birth to the Eastern culture, another famous culture was brought up on the Mesopotamian Plain — the Mesopotamian Civilization. This civilization later on developed into the cultures of Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome. 3.________Like the Chinese culture, the European one also crossed waters. When the British settled down in America, their culture went with them over the Atlantic Ocean. So the American culture doesn't distinguish from the European one a lot.4.________ Take the language system for example. In the East, most languages belong to the pictographic language while the Western languages are mostly based on the Latin system. Other causes like human race difference count as well. But what's more, due to the far distance and the steep areas between the East and West, the two cultures seldom communicate until recent centuries. So they grew up totally in their own ways with almost no interference (干扰) from the other.The differences are everywhere. 5.________ But different cultures make the world of 21st century more colorful. The cultural gap should not be the obstacle (障碍) to the civilization of human being. It ought to be the motivation of our going farther.A.Let us work together to keep a variety of culture.B.And these two are wellknown as the base of the European culture.C.One important thing is to learn about other cultures.D.They helped the two cultures develop for centuries and form their own styles.E.They are obvious and affect people's ways of thinking and their views of the world.F.At the same time, some other differences add to the cultural differences.G.This is because the culture systems are two separate systems on the whole.Ⅲ.完形填空This was an unforgettable and wonderful experience.

Unit 5 Theme parks提高练习Ⅰ. 阅读理解AWe all know that theme parks are places to have fun and amuseourselves, but among so many exciting rides there are also some dangers.Make sure you know what the safety standards are for all the attractions atthe park. If you do that, you will be safe and have fun.Drink water. Believe it or not, dehydration—when your body doesn't have enough water—is the commonest cause of injuries at theme parks. Drinking water while you are at the park is not enough. You must make sure that you drink enough water before you visit it.Use your “common sense”. There are lots of people around, so make sure you know where your friends or family are. Also, if you are walking and want to stop, make sure nobody is walking behind you. First step aside, then look behind and if you aren't in anybody's way, then stop. It might sound upset, but crashes between people can cause accidents.Follow the instructions. The majority of theme parks have instructions for each ride. Some rides only allow people of a certain height. So make sure you are not too tall or too short before boarding any ride. Also, people with certain diseases or conditions are advised not to go on some rides. Do remember: If you are told not to go on a ride, then DON'T.Do not ride until a bad stomach or if you've just eaten. Rides can make you ill because of their violent changes of direction and your lunch may end up on someone else's head;surely not a very pleasant experience.Have fun, relax and be a little brave! Some rides might look scary but theme parks are very safe places.1.What does the underlined word “dehydration” (in Paragraph 2) mean?A.Drinking too much water.B.Losing too much water from one's body.C.Losing too much food from one's body.D.Having too much food.2.What is the leading reason for injuries at theme parks?A.Snow.

The sixth grader and her family are refugees(难民)from Kenya. “Since I didn't speak English, it was hard to communicate with others,” Shukri said, “I had no friends.”“Anchorage receives about 130 refugees every year. Most are from Somalia. The rest come from Iraq, Sudan, Cuba, Central America, and other places. Like Shukri, many of the kids feel alone. They're dealing with a lot of adjustments(适应),” Katie Bisson says. She manages to support for newcomer students in the Anchorage School District(ASD).At the Newcomers' Center, the ASD offers a special program for students who are new to the US. The kids spend part of each day at the center and part of the day at their neighborhood school. At the center, the students study English and other subjects.The main goal is to help newcomers reach the point where they attend their neighborhood schools all day. “Until then,” Bisson says, “they have the support of being with kids like them, who are facing the same challenges (挑战).”Anchorage has a population of 300, 000.Among the ASD's 48, 000 students, 98 languages are spoken. According to Bisson, the ASD's newcomers program helps students understand a new culture so they can “start off on the right foot”.The Newcomers' Center gives attention to middle school and high school students. For younger kids, the ASD offers a six-week summer program, which Shukri attended. “It helped me learn the language,” she says. “I played sports with kids after class, and I played math games with my classmates. I feel very comfortable now.”5.What was Shukri's first reaction when she came to the U.S?A.She felt lonely.B.She felt quite excited.C.She felt a little regretful.D.She felt hopeful about the future.6.What do Bisson's words in Paragraph 2 mean?A.Americans welcome worldwide refugees.B.Refugees are facing a lot of problems.C.Life is hard for kids in Anchorage.D.Most refugees are ill-educated.7.For what reason did the ASD start this program?A.To develop kids' social skills.B.To improve the quality of refugees' life.C.To enrich students' life at neighborhood schools.D.To help newcomer students feel more at home.8.What is Shukri's attitude to the ASD's program?A.Worried.B.Doubtful.C.Uncaring.D.Supportive.Ⅰ. 阅读七选五Did you once make you friends angry or unhappy because of your words?Are you having trouble getting people to reply to your requests? 1 Learn how to say things the right way with this great guide!Could you give me five minutes?VS Go away.2 When you're busy and can't do anything else, just saying “Go away” is certainly not right. You can keep everyone happy by saying “Could you give me five minutes?”Excuse me. VS Move.Telling someone to “Move out of the way” is very impolite. The next time someone is in your way, saying “Excuse me” is a good idea. 3I'm afraid I can't. VS No.4 People will think it impolite to simply say “No”.The next time you have to refuse an invitation, you'd better say, “I'm afraid I can't.”Would you mind...?VS Stop it!Someone doing something you don't like, and perhaps being impolite. 5 To get the result you want, it's not a good idea to shout “Stop talking on your phone in the cinema!”and it's a good choice to ask them politely with the sentence, “Would you mind not using your phone in the cinema, please?”A.Would you like them to stop?B.Would you mind explaining that again?C.It is difficult to deal with people who are angry at you.D.If so, maybe people think that your English isn't polite.E.It can often be difficult to refuse an invitation from a friend.F.It will get the result you want and there won't be any trouble!G.You're really busy at work, but your workmate needs your help.Ⅰ. 语法填空On September 11, 2001, Omar Eduardo Rivera, a blind computer technician (技术员), was working on the 71st floor of the World Trade Center with his guide dog 1.(name) Dorado.
