2021高考英语一轮统考复习第一编Book2Unit6Design课时作业(含解析)北师大版
Unit 6 DesignⅠ.阅读理解A(2019·全国卷Ⅲ)For Western designers, China and its rich culture have long been an inspiration for Western creative.“It's no secret that China has always been a source (来源) of inspiration for designers，” says Amanda Hill, chief creative officer at A＋E Networks, a global media company and home to some of the biggest fashion (时尚) shows.Earlier this year, the China Through A Looking Glass exhibition in New York exhibited 140 pieces of Chinainspired fashionable clothing alongside Chinese works of art, with the aim of exploring the influence of Chinese aesthetics (美学) on Western fashion and how China has fueled the fashionable imagination for centuries. The exhibition had record attendance, showing that there is huge interest in Chinese influences.“China is impossible to overlook，” says Hill. “Chinese models are the faces of beauty and fashion campaigns that sell dreams to women all over the world, which means Chinese women are not just consumers of fashion—they are central to its movement.” Of course, not only are today's top Western designers being influenced by China—some of the best designers of contemporary fashion are themselves Chinese. “Vera Wang, Alexander Wang, Jason Wu are taking_on Galliano, Albaz, Marc Jacobs—and beating them hands down in design and sales，” adds Hill.For Hill, it is impossible not to talk about China as the leading player when discussing fashion. “The most famous designers are Chinese, so are the models, and so are the consumers，” she says. “China is no longer just another market；in many senses it has become the market. If you talk about fashion today, you are talking about China—its influences, its direction, its breathtaking clothes, and how young designers and models are finally acknowledging that in many ways.”篇章导读：本文是一篇新闻报道。
文章以国外视角报道中国文化及中国美学对国际时尚的影响，展现了中国对国际时尚和设计发展的引领作用。
1．What can we learn about the exhibition in New York?A．It promoted the sales of artworks.B．It attracted a large number of visitors.C．It showed ancient Chinese clothes.D．It aimed to introduce Chinese models.答案：B 推理判断题。
由题干中的“the exhibition in New York”定位到原文第三段，由该段最后一句可知此次展览的参观人数破了纪录，B项表述正确。
故选B项。
2．What does Hill say about Chinese women?A．They are setting the fashion.B．They start many fashion campaigns.C．They admire super models.D．They do business all over the world.答案：A 推理判断题。
由原文第四段中Hill说的话可知，中国女性不仅是时尚的消费者，承接上文，第一个破折号后的movement就是fashion campaign，结合常识与消费者对应的是创造者，所以中国女性不仅是时尚的消费者，还是时尚的创造者，由此推断出，她们正在引领潮流，故选A项。
3．What do the underlined words “taking on” in paragraph 4 mean?A．learning from B．looking down onC．working with D．competing against答案：D 词义猜测题。
由画线词后面的“—and beating them hands down in design and sales”可知，破折号是对前文的补充，因此beating them与taking on意思相近，所以可知take on此处意为“与……较量”，故选D项。
4．What can be a suitable title for the text?A．Young Models Selling Dreams to the WorldB．A Chinese Art Exhibition Held in New YorkC．Differences Between Eastern and Western AestheticsD．Chinese Culture Fueling International Fashion Trends答案：D 标题判断题。
通读全文可知，文章的第一段点明主题：对于西方设计师来说，长期以来中国及其丰富的文化一直是西方创作者的灵感来源。

BA work of art created by artificial intelligence (AI) has been sold by a major art seller for the first time.The print sold for an unexpectedly large amount of $432,500. The artwork was bought during an auction (拍卖) on Thursday at Christie's, an art house, in New York City. Officials had predicted it would sell for between $7,000 and $10,000. The buyer was not immediately announced.The artwork, called Portrait of Edmond Belamy, was made by a machine learning algorithm (算法). It shows the portrait of a man, looking similar to subjects shown in historical paintings. While the piece was not painted by a firstclass artist, “it is exactly the kind of artwork we have been selling for 250 years，” Christie's sale organizer Richard Lloyd said in a statement.Three creators from the art group Obvious cooperated on the process that made the print. They put a collection of 15,000 portraits into a machine learning system. The portraits were painted by artists from the time period between the 14th and the 20th centuries. Obvious has created a series of AIproduced artworks. It has experimented with other kinds of historical paintings. These included subjects from nature to paintings of the whole human body.Christie's admits that artwork created by machine learning methods leaves open questions about who or what should get credit (受到好评) for creating the pieces. An expert of art and artificial intelligence told Christie's he believes ownership of AI artwork needs to be shared because humans and machines both take part in the process. “You could say that, at this point, it is a collaboration (协作) between two artists—one human, one machine. And that leads me to think about the future,in which AI will become a new medium for art.”In the case of the Portrait of Edmond Belamy, only one “artist” appears at the bottom, where the signed name usually appears. This print does not contain a human's name. Instead, it lists part of the actual machine learning algorithm that created it.篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。

It is a challenge many disabled athletes face, unless someone agrees to be their eyes and ears.Newly formed group Achilles Brisbane pairs vision-and hearing-impaired (视觉和听觉受损的) athletes with people who would like to guide them.Jane Britt, president of Achilles Brisbane, who is vision-and hearing-impaired, said，“When we go out, it's much less frightening to have someone beside us that has full hearing to listen for us and tell us what's there.”Ms. Cullen and Ms. Britt meet up most Saturday mornings to take part in the free five-kilometer park run. Their partnership is built on trust, but Ms. Britt said that it took time to develop.Ms. Britt said it took an unexpected storm for her to trust Ms. Cullen completely.“There was violent rain, my glasses were broken and we were walking together. I suddenly had to tell her I couldn't see anything, and I was going to have to completely trust her. From that time I knew it was going to work because she was so good about dealing with the special situation we both found ourselves in，” she said.Isabella Allen and her seeing-eye dog Tatum are two new additions to the Achilles Brisbane. Ms. Allen kept active by rowing, running and cycling but found it difficult to keep going as her vision became worse. After nearly giving up completely, she worked up the courage to ask Achilles Brisbane to find someone to share a boat with her.Ms. Allen said the fear of not finding anyone to row with almost stopped her from reaching out to Achilles Brisbane.“But, they found people and matched me to them，” she said. “It's the best thing I've ever done.”4．What does Paragraph 1 try to show?A．The danger of walking on a busy road.B．The difficulty the disabled athletes face.C．The exercise people do to keep fit.D．The necessity of building roads for the blind.5．How does Jane Britt feel about going out alone?A．Relaxed. B．Excited.C．Worried. D．Bored.6．What happened in the heavy rain according to Ms. Britt?A．She developed a strong sense of teamwork.B．She led Ms. Cullen forward on the road.C．She began to rely on Ms. Cullen as her guide.D．She fell down on the ground.7．What was the best thing Ms. Allen has done?A．Asking Achilles Brisbane for help.B．Working in Achilles Brisbane.C．Exercising non-stop.D．Meeting Tatum.C[2020·江西重点中学高三联考]A primary school principal in north China has become the latest Internet celebrity for leading some cool moves during a morning exercise routine with his students.Every morning, 40-year-old principal Zhang Pengfei at the Xi Guan Primary School in Linyi county, Shanxi province would lead about 700 pupils on the playground in a synchronised“ghost shuffle”routine —a dance that incorporates contemporary jazz steps with heel, toe and arm movements. The bold headmaster thought the fun and energetic exercise routine would better encourage students to get active instead of “being glued to their mobile phones”．The school's new 30-minute dance routine has replaced the government-imposed broadcast callisthenics (健身操) programme, a short workout that has been a requirement at every primary, middle and secondary school in China since 1951. “I thought we needed a change because the students have been losing interest in doing the broadcast callisthenics routine，”Zhang told Southern Metropolis Daily.The dedicated principal said he came across a group of people doing the“ghost shuffle”routine at a public plaza last summer and decided to learn the dance himself. “I thought the dance would be great for kids，” he said. “The music is full of energy and it really gets the happy feeling of flowing.”In October, he introduced the choreographed (编舞) routine to all of his students and shortly after, even teachers and staff were joining in. “Now the students aren't constantly on their phones. I sometimes catch them watching different dance routine videos and learning new moves！” the proud headmaster told reporters.The video quickly went around on Chinese social media, with a Weibo topic page titled“principal leads students in ghost dance routine” gathering 250 million views. “This is perhaps the best adaption of sport and entertainment for children，” a comment on Weibo read.8．What can we know from the passage?A．Zhang Pengfei is a primary school principal in south China.B．Xi Guan Primary School's new 30-minute dance routine is both fun and energetic.C．Doing the broadcast callisthenics routine is only required at primary schools in China.D．Few people showed interest in Zhang Pengfei's ghost dance routine video on Weibo.9．What can we infer from the last paragraph ?A．People hold a critical attitude towards the adaptation.B．People hold an indifferent attitude towards the adaptation.C．People hold a negative attitude towards the adaptation.D．People hold a supportive attitude towards the adaptation.10．What can we learn from the passage?A．The “ghost shuffle” routine was created by Zhang Pengfei.B．The “ghost dance” is a form of callisthenics in China.C．The principal leads students in the ghost dance routine.D．The primary school is famous in China.11．From which part of a magazine can we read this passage?A．Agriculture. B．Technology.C．Economy. D．Education.D[2020·贵州适应性测试]The United Nations says that more than 8 million tons of plastics flow into the oceans each year. A new chemical technology could turn the world's polyolefin (聚烯烃) waste, a form of plastic, into useful products, such as clean fuels and other items.“Our method is to recycle by turning polyolefin waste into a wide range of valuable products，” said Linda Wang, a professor at Purdue University and leader of the research teamdeveloping this technology. “Our technology has the potential to promote the recycling industry and a decline in the world's plastic waste.”The technology can change more than 90 percent of polyolefin waste into many different products. Wang became inspired to create this technology after reading about the plastic waste pollution of the oceans, groundwater, and the environment. Of all the plastics produced over the past 65 years (8.3 billion tons), about 12 percent have been burned and only 9 percent have been recycled. The remaining 79 percent have gone into earth or the oceans. The World Economic Forum presages that by 2050 the oceans will hold more plastic waste than fish if the waste continues to be thrown into the water.Wang said the technology could change about 90 percent of the polyolefin plastic.“Plastic waste, whether recycled or thrown away, does not mean the end of the story，”Wang said. “These plastics degrade (降解) slowly and release harmful chemicals into the land and the water. This is a disaster, because once these pollutants are in the oceans, they are impossible to remove completely.”Wang hopes her technology will help the recycling industry to reduce the rapidly rising amount of plastic waste. She and her team are looking for investors or partners to apply this technology.12．What does the underlined word “presages” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A．Describes. B．Knows.C．Explains. D．Predicts.13．Where can you find the data that best supports “there will be much more plastic waste than fish in the oceans”？A．In paragraph 5. B．In paragraph 4.C．In paragraph 3. D．In paragraph 2.14．What will the technology bring about?A．An increase in a variety of waste.B．Damage to ecological system.C．Extinction of marine animals.D．A decline in the plastic waste.15．What can be a suitable title for the text?A．Turning Waste into WealthB．No Pouring Plastics into OceansC．Taking Action after ReadingD．Changing Polyolefin into Plastics第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

into a garage，and the young mechanic had it fixed in just a few minutes.He knew what was wrongby simply listening to the engine.I was a mazed.The sad truth is that great talent is not enough.I am constantly shocked at how little talented people earn.I heard the other day that less than 5 percent of Americans earn more than $100,000 a year.A business consultant who specializes in the medical，trade told me how many doctors and dentists struggled financially.It was this business consultant who gave me the phrase，“They are one skill away from great wealth.”There is an old saying that goes，“Job means ‘just over broke (破产)’．” And unfortunately，I would say that the saying applies to millions of people.Because school does not think financial intelligence is intelligence，and most workers “live_within_their_means”．They work and they pay the bills.Instead I recommend young people to seek work for what they will learn，more than what they will earn.When I ask the class I teach，“How many of you can cook a better hamhurger than McDonald’s？” almost all the students raise their hands.I then ask，“So if most of you can cook a better hamburger，how come McDonald’s makes more money than you？” The answer is obvious：McDo nald’s is excellent at business systems.The reason why so many talented people are poor is that they focus on making a better hamburger but know little or nothing about business systems.The world is filled with talented poor people.They focus on perfecting their skills at making a better hamburger rather than the skills of selling and delivering the hamburger.1．The author mentions the mechanic in the first paragraph to show that________.A．he is just one of the talented peopleB．he is ready to help othersC．he has a sharp sense of hearingD．he knows little about car repairing2．The underlined part in the third paragraph can be best replaced by “________”．A．spend more than they can affordB．do in their own wayC．live in their own circleD．live within what they earn3．Why do talented people earn so little according to the au thor?A．They don’t work hard enough.B．They lack financial intelligence.C．They don’t make full use of their talents.D．They have no specialized skills.4．The success of McDonald’s lies in its________.A．skills at making hamburgersB．good business systemsC．talented workersD．excellent service5．The main purpose of the author is to tell us________.A．how yo ung people can find a satisfactory jobB．what schools should teach studentsC．why so many talented people are poorD．how McDonald’s makes much moneyB(2012·陕西省五校第一次模拟) Starting the day on an egg could keep your blood pressure (血压) under control，research suggests.Scientists have shown that eggs produce proteins with a function similar to that of powerful blood pressurelowering drugs.The research，from the University of Alberta in Canada，showed that when eggs come in contact with stomach enzymes (酶) they produce a protein that acts in the same way as ACE_inhibitors，but more work is needed to show the effects outside a lab and in the human body.Earlier this month，British researchers declared that，contrary to popular beliefs，it is healthy to go to work on an egg.They concluded that the type of cholesterol (胆固醇) found in eggs has little effect on increasing heart disease risks.Researcher Professor Bruce Griffin，from the University of Surrey，said：“The wrong beliefs linking egg eating to high blood cholesterol and heart disease must be corrected.The amount of fat in our diet has an effect on blood cholesterol that is several times greater than the relatively small amounts of cholesterol found in eggs.The UK public do not need to be limiting the number of eggs they eat.They can be encouraged to include them in a healthy diet as they are one of nature’s most nutritious foods.”The British Heart Foundation dropped its threeeggaweek limit in 2005.However，almost half of Britons believe the limit still applies.6．From the text we

2021年高考英语大一轮复习 Unit 2 Poems课时作业新人教版选修6Ⅰ. 阅读理解AMention the terms Italian Culture and Renaissance Art and one is immediately reminded of the mysterious smile of Leonardo da Vinci’s Mona Lisa.The renaissance period had a deep effect on European culture development. Having its beginnings in Italy, by the 16th century, it had spread to the rest of Europe. Its influence was felt in different fields such as philosophy, literature, religion, science, politics, and, of course, art. The scholars of the renaissance period applied the humanist method in every field of study, and wanted human emotion and realism in art.Renaissance scholars studied the ancient Latin and Greek texts, searching the monastic(修道院的)libraries of Europe for works of ancient times that had bee obscure, in their hunt for improving and perfecting their worldly knowledge. This was pletely different from the religion that Christianity(基督教)stressed. However, that does not mean that they refused Christianity. In fact, much of the greatest works of the renaissance period was devoted to it, with the church supporting a lot of the works of renaissance art. However, there were slight changes in the manner in which the scholars began to treat religion, which affected the cultural life of the society, which in turn influenced the artists of that period and therefore was reflected intheir art.In Raphael’s School of Athens, for example, some well-known people were described as classical scholars, with Leonardo da Vinci being given as much importance as Plato in his time. Giotto di Bondone, 1267—1337, a Florentine, who is regarded as the greatest Italian painter just earlier than the renaissance period, is thought to be the first artist who treated a painting as a window into space.However, it was only after the writings of Filippo Brunelleschi, 1377—1446, who is considered the first great builder of the Italian Renaissance, that perspective was formally accepted as an artistic technique.【文章大意】文章介绍了文艺复兴的发源地意大利在当时的背景下的文化特色和相关艺术家在这个时期的作用。

(全国统考)2021高考英语一轮复习第1编话题六Book7Unit2Robots课时作业(含解析)
Unit 2 Robots课时作业Ⅰ.阅读理解(2020·全国新高三开学联考)A robot created by Washington State University (WSU) scientists could help elderly people with dementia and other limitations live independently in their own homes.The Robot Activity Support System, or RAS, uses sensors (传感器) equipped in a WSU smart home to determine where its residents are, what they are doing and when they need assistance with daily activities. It navigates (定位) through rooms and around obstacles to find people on its own, provides video instructions on how to do simple tasks and can even lead its owners to objects like their medication or a snack in the kitchen.“RAS combines the convenience of a mobile robot with the activity detection technology of a WSU smart home to provide assistance in the moment, as the need for help is detected，” said Bryan Minor, a postdoctoral researcher in the WSU School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science.Currently, about 50 per cent adults over the age of 85 need assistance with everyday activities such as preparing meals and taking medication and the annual cost for this assistance in the US is nearly $2 trillion. With the number of adults over 85 expected to triple by 2050, researchers hope that technologies like RAS and the WSU smart home will relieve some of the financial pressure on the healthcare system by making it easier for older adults to live alone.RAS is the first robot researchers have tried to apply to their smart homeenvironment. They recently published a study in the journal Cognitive Systems Research that shows how RAS could make life easier for older adults struggling to live independently.“While we are still in an early stage of development, our initial results with RAS have been promising，”Minor said. “The next step in the research will be to test RAS' performance with a group of older adults to get a better idea of what video reminders and other preferences they have regarding the robot.”篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。
