课时作业(九) [模块3 Unit 9 Wheels](限时：40分钟)Ⅰ.阅读理解AHave you ever wondered?1. Why do airplanes take longer to fly west than east?It can take five hours to go westeast from New York (NY) to London but seven hours to travel eastw est from London to NY. The reason for the difference is an atmospheric phenomenon known as the jet(喷射)stream. The jet stream is a very high altitude wind which always blows from the west to the east across the Atlantic. The planes moving at a constant air speed thus go faster in the westeast direction when they are moving with the wind than in the opposite direction.2. What would happen if the gravity on the earth was suddenly turned off? Supposing we could magically turn off gravity. Would buildings and other structures(建筑物)float away? What happened would depend on how strongly the things were attached to the earth. The earth is moving at quite a speed, moving at over a thousand miles per hour. If you turn something around your head on a string(细绳), it goes around in a circle until you let go of the string. Then it flies off in a straight line. Switching off gravity would be like letting go of the string. Things not attached to the earth would fly off in a straight line. People in buildings would suddenly shoot upwards at a great speed until they hit the ceiling. Most things outside would fly off into space.1.What information can we get from the first passage?A．It is the jet stream that affects how fast airplanes fly.B．Planes go slower when they are moving with the wind.C．It takes more time to fly from NY to London than from London to NY.D．The jet stream always blows from the east to the west across the Atlantic. 2．The underlined word “shoot” in the 2nd passage probably means “________”．A．send for B．move quicklyC．come out D．grow quickly3．It can be inferred that without gravity ________．A．buildings and other structures would float awayB．trees and buildings would not so easily fly offC．something around your head would not float awayD．everything outside buildings would fly off into space4．Where can we most probably read this text?A．In a research paper. B．In a short story.C．In a travel magazine. D．In a student's book.BI've spent over a year in India，and in those 365 plus days，I've learned a lot about getting around Indian cities.My biggest lessons have been learned through being cheated，particularly by taxi and rickshaw(人力车) drivers，but that doesn't mean those are bad ways to travel，as long as you know what you're doing.Below are thebest ways to get around the city of Delhi，India，and tips for how to keep from being the victim of scams(诈骗)．Taking taxis is a great way to get around the city of Delhi and chances are，if you arrive in Delhi by plane，as soon as you make it through customs，you'll be swarmed by Indian taxi drivers.At the Delhi airport，be sure to arrange for a taxi to your hotel at one of the two Delhi Traffic Police Taxi Booths.One is inside the airport，and one is outside.The key is to make sure to go to a booth run by the police，rather than by independent taxi drivers.Rickshaws are one of my favourite ways to get around Indian cities，in part because it's how the locals often travel.Autorickshaws are more common，but bicycle rickshaws are still used in old Delhi.If you do have a chance to take a bicycle rickshaw，you should do it at least once for a unique experience that should only set you back about 15 rupees.Autorickshaw rates around Del hi range between 30 and 80 rupees，depending on distance.If you really want to travel around Delhi like the locals，take a public bus.Indian buses become very crowded and most do not have air conditioning.They are，however，very cheap.A bus trip won't set you back any more than 15 rupees，as long as you stay within the city limits.Since Indian buses get so crowded，try to board the bus at the start of the route so you can get a seat.The train is a great way to get around within the city of Delhi.Fares are reasonable，between 6 and 22 rupees.All departure announcements are in both Hindi and English，and tokens can be purchased for between 6 and 22 rupees.5．The author is trying to ________ in Delhi through this text.A．give some advice of travellingB．expect us to travel aroundC．show his/her experiencesD．explain the difficulties of travelling6．The author suggests taking a rickshaw in order to ________．A．save some moneyB．enjoy the comfortable tripC．gain some unique experienceD．help the local rickshaw drivers7．What can we infer from the passage?A．You won't have to pay much if you travel around by bus in India.B．It will be difficult for you to get a seat if you get on the bus halfway. C．A rickshaw driver only charges whatever amount you give him.D．You'll have to speak English if you travel around in India.8．Which may be the topic that follows?A．Hotel recommendations in Delhi.B．Weather conditions in Delhi.C．Food and drink in Delhi.D．Car rentals in Delhi.Ⅱ.完形填空There are many different ways of seeing a town for the first time.

backing a workplace parking charge which will come into force in Nottingham in 2013 and is likely to be adopted across the country.The scheme will see firms with more than ten parking places for staff charged ￡350 a year for each space in two years.Employers would be free to pass on the charge to their staff—meaning it would effectively be a tax on driving to work.The scheme aims to reduce traffic by preventing unnecessary car journeys and raise funds to improve public transport，but critics say it is just an excuse for councils to fill their coffers (金库)．Some ten million Britons drive to work each day，and the British Chambers of Commerce says the new charge could total ￡3.4 billion a year if rolled out nationwide.Already some firms in Nottingham have threatened to leave the city，where 40,000 commuters use their cars to get to work.A spokesman said the scheme was nothing morethan a tax on jobs.“It is very unfair to discri minate against those employers who have parking spaces，which get vehicles off the streets，” he said.“And these charges apply around the clock，which is especially unfair on shift workers who rely on their cars because public transport is not available.This is more about increasing the government’s income than reducing traffic.”However，Transport Minister Sadiq Khan gave the plan an official approval during a visit to Nottingham.The council says the tax will raise as much as ￡100 million over ten years—one fifth of the cost of a new transport system for the city.Another transport spokesman Theresa Villiers said the tax would have a devastating impact on businesses struggling to cope with the economic decline.But Richard Hebditch of the Campaign for Better Transport said the tax would raise money to invest in better transport.“We put forward the idea of workplace parking taxes as a fairer way to raise money to invest in the future local transport services.We are pleased that the people of Nottingham wi ll be the first to benefit.”1．Supporters argue that the scheme________.A．can help improve the parking conditions for the staffB．should be applied to ail commuters driving to workC．is certain to be carried out despite the objectionsD．will relieve traffic pressure and improve public transport2．According to the objectors，the scheme is unfair for________.A．the firms with parking lotsB．the workforce without carsC．the employees parking their cars on the streetsD．the staff driving to work in the daytime3．Which word can best describe Theresa Villiers’s attitude towards the scheme?A．Neutral. B．Negative.C．Understanding. D．Positive.4．It can be inferred from the passage that________.A．many firms are willing to pay the charges for their staffB．the public transport in Nottingham is in great need of improvementC．the author believes Britons will benefit from the schemeD．those firms with more commuters will leave NottinghamⅣ.短文改错(2013·河北模拟)Dear Brad，I am a boy in the first grades of a senior high school.I feel uneasily recently.At home I feel like prisoner.I am not allowed to watch TV or su rf the Internet.The only thing I have to do it is studying.Every time I got a low mark，my parents will scold me sharply.There’s a generation gap among my pare nts and me，but it’s always difficult to communicate.Life are supposed to be colorful and wonderful，isn’t it？Ho w should I devote all my time and energy to the study so as to entering a good university？I am very unhappy and lost.I need your help.Best wishes，Li Ping 答案：课时作业(十七)Ⅰ.单项填空1．解析：由You should turn to professionals可知，答话人不太确定换狗粮是否对狗有害，故选I’m not so sure(我不太确定)。

No news is good news, and good news is no news. Those are the classic rules for the evening broadcasts and the morning papers. But now that information is being spread and monitored(监控) in different ways, researchers are discovering new rules. By tracking people's emails and online posts, scientists have found that g ood news can spread faster and farther than disasters and sob stories.“The ‘if it bleeds’ rule works for mass media，” says Jonah Berger, ascholar at the University of Pennsylvania. “They want your eyeballs and don't care how you're feeling. But when you share a story with your friends, you care a lot more how they react. You don't want them to think of you as a Debbie Downer.”Researchers analyzing word－of－mouth communication—e－mails, Web posts and reviews, face－to－face conversations—found that it tended to be more positive than negative(消极的), but that didn't necessarily mean people preferred positive news. Was positive news shared more often simply because people experienced more good things than bad things? To test for that possibility, Dr. Berger looked at how people spread a particular set of news stories: thousand of articles on The New York Times' website. He and a Penn colleague analyzed the “most e－mailed” list for six months. One of his first findings was that articles in the science section were much more likely to make the list than non－science articles. He found that science amazed Times' readers and made them want to share this positive feeling with others.Readers also tended to share articles that were exciting or funny, or that inspired negative feelings like anger or anxiety, but not articles that left them merely sad. They needed to be aroused(激发) one way or the other, and they preferred good news to bad. The more positive an article, the more likely it was to be shared, as Dr. Berger explains in his new book, “Contagious: Why Things Catch On.”语篇解读本文讲述了科学家对大众传媒的新发现：好消息比坏消息传得更快、更远，越积极乐观的信息越容易被大众分享。

backing a workplace parking charge which will come into force in Nottingham in 2013 and is likely to be adopted across the country.The scheme will see firms with more than ten parking places for staff charged ￡350 a year for each space in two years.Employers would be free to pass on the charge to their staff—meaning it would effectively be a tax on driving to work.The scheme aims to reduce traffic by preventing unnecessary car journeys and raise funds to improve public transport，but critics say it is just an excuse for councils to fill their coffers (金库)．Some ten million Britons drive to work each day，and the British Chambers of Commerce says the new charge could total ￡3.4 billion a year if rolled out nationwide.Already some firms in Nottingham have threatened to leave the city，where 40,000 commuters use their cars to get to work.A spokesman said the scheme was nothing morethan a tax on jobs.“It is very unfair t o discriminate against those employers who have parking spaces，which get vehicles off the streets，” he said.“And these charges apply around the clock，which is especially unfair on shift workers who rely on their cars because public transport is not available.This is more about increasing the government’s income than reducing traffic.”However，Transport Minister Sadiq Khan gave the plan an official approval during a visit to Nottingham.The council says the tax will raise as much as ￡100 million over ten years—one fifth of the cost of a new transport system for the city.Another transport spokesman Theresa Villiers said the tax would have a devastating impact on businesses struggling to cope with the economic decline.But Richard Hebditch of the Campaign for Better Transport said the tax would raise money to invest in better transport.“We put forward the idea of workplace parking taxes as a fairer way to raise money to invest in the future local transport services.We are pleased that the people of Notti ngham will be the first to benefit.”1．Supporters argue that the scheme________.A．can help improve the parking conditions for the staffB．should be applied to ail commuters driving to workC．is certain to be carried out despite the objectionsD．will relieve traffic pressure and improve public transport2．According to the objectors，the scheme is unfair for________.A．the firms with parking lotsB．the workforce without carsC．the employees parking their cars on the streetsD．the staff driving to work in the daytime3．Which word can best describe Theresa Villiers’s attitude towards the scheme?A．Neutral. B．Negative.C．Understanding. D．Positive.4．It can be inferred from the passage that________.A．many firms are willing to pay the charges for their staffB．the public transport in Nottingham is in great need of improvementC．the author believes Britons will benefit from the schemeD．those firms with more commuters will leave NottinghamⅣ.短文改错(2013·河北模拟)Dear Brad，I am a boy in the first grades of a senior high school.I feel uneasily recently.At home I feel like prisoner.I am not allowed to watch TV or su rf the Internet.The only thing I have to do it is studying.Every time I got a low mark，my parents will scold me sharply.There’s a generation gap among my parents and me，but it’s always difficult to communicate.Life are supposed to be colorful and wonderful，isn’t it？Ho w should I devote all my time and energy to the study so as to entering a good university？I am very unhappy and lost.I need your help.Best wishes，Li Ping 答案：课时作业(十七)Ⅰ.单项填空1．解析：由You should turn to professionals可知，答话人不太确定换狗粮是否对狗有害，故选I’m not so sure(我不太确定)。
