Fortunately, the Garden State has plenty of outdoor spaces to offer. These public parks all have unusual qualities that make them stand out among the rest.Boundary Creek Natural Resource AreaBoundary Creek is a 34-acre park designed for quiet nature study. Families can use the grassy open space and the picnic tables near the parking lot for picnics.A special feature is the observation boardwalks for people to watch the animals without being noticed.Challenge Grove ParkChallenge Grove Park is not a challenge for children with special needs. The playgrounds at the park were built specifically for children with disabilities (残疾).The 17-acre park also includes a basketball court, ball park and covered picnic area with bathrooms. There is a paved path throughout the park.Knight ParkThe park has athletic fields used by schools and the public. At one end of the park is a playground area with different recreational (娱乐的) equipment.There are also picnic benches, a paved path and plenty of open space for play in the 60-acre park.Laurel AcresThe parking lot of Laurel Acres is always full.

Here is a very funny joke about how the English and the Scottish save on train fare.Five Englishmen boarded a train just behind five Scots, who as a group had only bought one ticket. Just before the conductor (售票员) came, all the Scots went into the toilet. As the conductor passed the toilet, he knocked and called, “Tickets, please!” One of the Scots slid a ticket out under the door. It was punched (打孔) and pushed back. When it was safe, all the Scots came out and took their seats. The Englishmen were quite impressed by what the Scots had done. On the trip back, the five Englishmen decided to try this themselves and bought only one ticket. They noticed that the Scots had not bought any tickets this time. Anyway, again, just before the conductor came, the Scots went into one of the toilets, the Englishmen into the other. Then one of the Scots leaned out, knocked on the Englishmen’s toilet and called, “Tickets, please!” When the ticket was slid out under the door, he picked it up and quickly closed the door.English humour shows the ups and downs of life in Britain. Humour helps us to look at the lighter side of things. So, if you want a good laugh, and want to change your attitude to what would otherwise be a difficult situation, turn to a good English situation comedy and have a good time.4. The five Scots went into the toilet in order to .A. avoid being found they had only one ticketB. come up with a method of getting a ticketC. hide from the five EnglishmenD. impress the five Englishmen5. The conductor punched the ticket of the Scots because .A. he did not want to get into troubleB. he was familiar with the five ScotsC. he thought there was only one person insideD. he wanted to show pity on the five poor Scots6. Which of the following words can best describe the five Scots?A. Confident.B. Careful.C. Naughty.D. Clever.7. What is the writer’s purpose in writing the passage?A. To tell us an interesting story.B. To let us taste British humour.C. To show his confusion about British humour.D. To show how British culture affects the British.CSeparate the sick goldfish from the other fishOne of the first actions that you have to take to save a dying goldfish is to separate the sick goldfish from the other fish in the fishbowl. This is done so that the sick fish will not pollute the water and make the other healthy fish sick. Once you have removed the dying goldfish from the fishbowl, place it in a separate bowlwhich has been filled with bottled mineral water. It is advisable that you do not fill the bowl with tap water (自来水) as there might be chemicals in the tap water which might make your goldfish sick.Change the waterOnce you have separated the sick goldfish from the other fish, it is a good idea to change the water in the bowl a couple of times. At this point of time it is advisable that you do not add any additives (添加剂) or salt to the water. Keep the fish under observation for a couple of hours. If you are lucky, your goldfish will be up and swim like a healthy fish.Give the goldfish medicineIf your goldfish is still lying on the bottom of the fishbowl even after the water change, then you need to give it some medicine. But first you need to look out for signs of diseases. For cloudy eyes, tail and fin rot as well as bloody spots, you can use a fungus eliminator, which can be bought from any pet shop.By keeping the water clean and using a water filter (过滤器) you can prevent many goldfish diseases. If your fish is still sick after using the methods listed above, then you need to take it to experts.8. What would be the best title for the passage?A. How to keep fish in a fishbowlB. How to save a dying goldfishC. How to prevent some goldfish diseasesD. How to keep water in a fishbowl clean9. Upon discovering a sick fish in the bowl, we should .A. have the water in the bowl filtered at onceB. add more bottled mineral water to the bowlC. remove the fish and put it in a bowl filled with tap waterD. take the sick fish out and put it in another separate bowl10. What may be the function of “a fungus eliminator”?A. To produce healthy food for fish.B. To help goldfish take medicine.C. To remove harmful things from a fishbowl.D. To check if there are sick fish in a fishbowl.11. According to the writer, in order to prevent goldfish getting sick, we must first of all .A. check the quality of tap water regularlyB. keep the water in the bowl clean all the timeC. change the water in the bowl several times a dayD. keep the fish in separate bowls filled with clean waterDSteve Spangler has seen how math and science seem like magic ever since he was a kid. When he was small, his dad, who was a scientist and a magician, would show how both magic and science worked together at home. Now that Spangler is an adult, it’s his turn to help kids understand the magic in science.“We’re trying to get kids to think, to wonder, to discover, to explore and to ask questions,” s aid Spangler, 45 now.Spangler began as a science teacher in Colorado and is now a science celebrity (名人) making regular TV appearances to show off some of his coolest experiments.Spangler’s experiments are easy and exciting, which he says help make the f rightening subjects of math and science seem more understandable.Spangler has won awards for promoting science education. He has appeared on Ellen DeGeneres’s show several times to do experiments, including blowing large smoke rings, filling her studio with flying potatoes and demonstrating(示范) an exploding pumpkin trick. He has also developed his own show that you can watch on YouTube called “The Spangler Effect” to show other unusual experiments you can try at home.Spangler believes that kids can learn the principles of doing experiments, including making correct measurements and repeating experiments to make sure the results are correct while still having a lot of fun. This kind of active learning is what Spangler discovered with his father when he was a kid. Back then, he just thought it was magic.“It’s more than an activity,” Spangler said. “It creates an unforgettable learning experience.”12. The goal of Spangler’s experiments is to .A. teach children how to play tricksB. show off his unusual abilityC. make children interested in scienceD. make money by giving different shows13. We can learn from the passage that Spangler .A. was greatly influenced by his fatherB. created the way of active learningC. only does experiments onlineD. has a dream of becoming famous14. The underlined word “promoting” in Paragraph 5 probably means “”.A. encouragingB. advertisingC. supportingD. continuing15. What can be the best title for the passage?A. Interesting experimentsB. Making science magicalC. Science education is importantD. Active learning is important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。

高中英语必修四同步测试单元检测卷Unit3 Word版含答案
单元检测卷:Unit3APlants are very important living things. Life could not go on if there were no plants. This is because plants can make food from air, water and sunlight. Animals and man cannot make food from air, water and sunlight. Animals get their food by eating plants and other animals. Therefore animals and man need plants in order to live. This is why we find that there are so many plants aroundus.If you look carefully at the plants around you, you will find that there are two kinds of plants: flowering plants and non-flowering plants. Flowering plants can make seed. The seeds are protected by the fruits. Some fruits have one seed, some have two, three or four, and some have many seeds. But a few fruits have no seeds at all. An example of a fruit without seeds is the banana fruit. Most non-floweringplantsdonotgrowfromseeds. Theygrowfromspores (胚芽). Sporesare very small. Some spores are so small and light that they can float in the air. We may say that spores are quite the same as seeds. When these spores are all on wet and shady places, they usually grow into new plants.1.The main idea of the first paragraphisthat.A. plants are importantforlifeB. plants cannot grow withoutairC. there are many plants inthe worldD. we can’t live withoutwater2.Plants can makefoodfrom.A. flower, waterandairB. water, sunlight andairC. air, waterand soilD. air, sun and light3.What can we infer from thepassage?A.Of all living things animals are mostimportant.B.Spores are seeds.C.All fruits of flowering plants haveseeds.D.Without plants, man will dieout.4.This passage may betaken from.A. amedicinebookB. a novelC. asciencemagazineD. an experimentreportBKatie was in big trouble. She was such a sweet kid; a third-grade teacher alwaysdreams of having a classroom filled with Katies; she was never a discipline problem.I just couldn’t imagine what she had done to make her parents soangry.It seemed that Katie had been running up sizable charges in the lunchroom. Her parents explained that Katie brought a great homemade lunch each day, and there was no reason for her to buy schoollunch. They assumed a sit-down with Katie would solve the problem. But it was of no use. So they asked me to help them get to the bottom of this situation.So the next da y, I asked Katie to my office. “Why are you charging lunches, Katie? What happened to your homemade?” I asked. “I lose it,” she responded. “Every day?” “Every day.” I leaned back in my chair and said, “I don’t believe you, Katie.” She didn’t care…“Is someone stealing your lunch, Katie?” I took a new track. “No. I just lose it,” she said. Well, there was nothing else I coulddo.The problem was still unsolved the next week when I noticed a boy who was new to the school sitting alone at a lunch table. He always looked sad. I thought I would go and sit with him for a while. As I walked towards him, I noticed the lunch bag on the table. The name on the bag said “Katie”.Now I understood and I talked to Katie. It seemed the new boy never brought a lunch, and he w ouldn’t go to the lunch line for a free lunch (A student whose family is too poor qualifies for a free lunch). He had confided in Katie and asked her not to tell anyone that his parents wanted him to get free lunch at school. Katie asked me not to tell he r parents. But I did. I drove to Katie’s house that evening after I was sure that she was in bed. I have never seen parents so proud of their child. Katie didn’t care that her parents and teacher were disappointed in her. But she cared about a little boy who was hungry andscared.Katie still buys lunch every day at school. And every day, as she heads out the door, her mom hands her a delicious homemade lunch.5.The author thought Katie was agirlwho.A. often made troubles atschoolB. performed well atschoolC. was disliked bymost teachersD. used to be a disciplineproblem6.Why did Katie eat school lunch instead of her homemade lunch eachday?A.She had lost her homemadelunch.B.Someone stole her homemade lunch.C.She didn’t like the taste of her homemadelunch.D.She gave her homemade lunch to a hungryboy7.The underlined phrase “confided in” in Paragraph 5 has the closestmeaningto.A.trustedB.threatenedC. helpedD.blamed8.What can we learn from thetext?A.Katie told the author the truth of her lunch during their firsttalk.B.Katie’s secret of lunch was discovered by the author byaccident.C.Katie was informed that her parents had known hersecret.D.Katie stopped buying lunch at school after her secret wasdiscovered.CLow-Cost Gifts for Mother's DayGift No. IOffer to be your mother's health friend.

Now a research by Cornell University suggests how life style and decisions about eating may affect weight. Researchersconcluded that the French tend to stop eating when they feel full. However, Americans tend to stop when their plate is empty or their favorite TV show is over.According to Dr. Joseph Mercola, a health expert, the French see eating as an important part oftheir life style. They enjoy food and therefore spend a fairly long time at the table, while Americans see eating as something to be squeezed between the other daily activities. Mercola believes Americans lose the ability to sense when they are actually full. So they keep eating long after the French would have stopped. In addition, he points out that Americans drive to huge supermarkets to buy canned and frozen foods for the week. The French, instead, tend to shop daily, walking to small shops and farmers’ markets where they have a choice of fresh fruits, vegetables, and eggs as well as high-quality meats for each meal.After a visit to the United States, Mireille Guiliano, author of French Women Don’t Get Fat, decided to write about the importance of knowing when to stop rather than suggesting how to avoid food. Today she continues to stay slim and rarely goes to the gym.In spite of all these differences, evidence shows that recent life style changes may be affecting French eating habits. Today the rate of obesity — or extreme overweight —among adults is only 6%. However, as American fast food gains acceptance and the young reject older traditions, the obesity rate among French children has reached 17% — and is growing.12.In what way are the French different from Americans according to Dr.JosephMercola?A.They go shopping at supermarkets morefrequently.B.They squeeze eating between the other dailyactivities.C.They regard eating as a key part of their lifestyle.D.They usually eat too much canned and frozenfood.13.This text is mainly about therelationshipbetween.A.

ATVinterviewB. A foodadvertisementC. AhealthreportD. A bookreview七选五16 From the beginning, people may send the wrong signal. Or they may pay noattention to signals from another person who is trying to develop arelationship. Different cultures emphasize the importance of relationship building to a greater or lesser degree. For example, business in some countries is not possible until there is a relationship of trust. Even with people at work, it is necessary to spend a lot of time in “ small talk ”, usually over a glass of tea, before they do any job. In many European countries------like the UK or France 17Talks and silence may also be different in some cultures. I once made a speech in Thailand. I hadexpectedmyspeechtobeasuccessandstartalivelydiscussion; 18 The people presen too many words areunnecessary.Even within Northern Europe, cultural differences can cause serious problems.Certainly, English and German cultures share similar values; 19 We thinkthat they are rude. In fact, this is just because one culture starts discussions andmakes decisions morequickly.People from different parts of the world have differentvalues, 20However, if we can understand them better, a multicultural environment will offer awonderful chance for us to learn from eachother.A.and sometimes these values are quite against eachother.B.Meeting people from another culture can bedifficult.C.people from both nations keep the rule that work comesfirst.D.instead there was an uncomfortablesilence.E.however, Germans prefer to get down to business morequickly.F.people find it easier to build up a lasting working relationship at restaurantsorcafes rather than at theoffice.G.It is quite a common case to meet people from differentcultures.完形填空The story of “Making Pancakes” reminds me of Mother’s Day in Georgia in 1970.That 21 , my family and I were at the Church 22 for the preacher ( 牧师) to beginwhen I looked around noticing our 12-year-old son was 23 .

washing machine is switched on, water pours in.The machine waits until the water is warm enough for washing clothes.It does this by “feedback”(反馈).Information about what is happening is feedback into the robot to tell what to do next.Our eyes, ears and other senses are our feedback.They tell us what is going on around us.So robots are like human beings in two ways.They work and they have feedback.In some ways robots are better than human beings.They work quickly and do not make mistakes.They do not get bored doing the same job over and over again.And they never get tired.So robots are very useful in factories.They can be taught to do many different jobs.First theirelectronic brain must be shown how the job is done.A person moves the robot’s “arms” and “hands” through each part of the job.The most intelligent robots can move and see.Their eyes are cameras.Their fingers can feel shapes and sizes of the objects.These robots have computer brains linked to their eyes and fingers, which control their actions.The expensive robots are used in scientific research.They do such job as handling radioactive materials.46.In this passage the author tells us that ________.A.robots are very popularB.there are various kinds of robotsC.we see robots only at certain timesD.robots can be easily controlled47.What does the author seem to inform you about robots?A.They should be greatly improved.B.They will probably take over in the future.C.They are very helpful and useful to humans.D.They are machines that break down a lot.48.The author says that in industry ________.A.robots break down a lotB.robots can do many jobsC.robots only get in the wayD.robots sometimes cause troubles49.The fact that a robot never gets bored doing the same job means that _______.A.it is very much like human beingsB.it can do boring jobs for peopleC.it will never bore peopleD.it will work much better than human beings50.The robots used for scientific research _______.A.are not very cleverB.are very cheapC.are very bigD.are very costlyB“It hurts me more than you”, and “This is for your own good” —these are the statements my mother used to make years ago when I had to learn Latin, clean my room, stay home and do homework.That was before we entered the permissive period in education in which we decided it was all right not to push our children to achieve their best in school.The schools and the educators made it easy for us.They taught that it was all right to be parents who take a let-alone policy.We stopped making our children do homework.We gave them calculators, turned on the television, left the teaching to the teachers and went on vacation.Now teachers, faced with children who have been developing at their own pace for the past 15 years, are realizing we’ve made a terrible mistake.One such teacher is Sharon Clomps who says of her students—“so passive” —and wonders what has happened.Nothing is demanded of them, she believes.Television, says Clomps, contributes to children’s passivity.“We’re talkingabout a generation of kids who’ vet never been hurt or hungry.They have learned somebody will always do it for them, instead of sayi ng ‘go and look it up’, you tell them the answer.It takes greater energy to say no to a kid.”Yes, it does.It takes energy and it takes work.It’s time for parents to end their vacation and come back to work.It’ s time to take the car away, to turn the TV off, to tell them it hurts you more than them but it’ s for their own good.It’s s time to start telling them no again.51.Children are becoming more inactive in study because _______.A.they watch TV too oftenB.they have done too much homeworkC.they have to fulfill too many dutiesD.teachers are too strict with them52.We learn from the passage that the author’s mother used to lay emphasis on _______.A.learning LatinB.disciplineC.natural developmentcation at school53.By “permissive period in education” (L.1, Para.2) the author means a time _______.A.when children are allowed to do what they wish toB.when everything can be taught at schoolC.when every child can be educatedD.when children are permitted to receive education54.The main idea of the passage is that _______.A.parents should leave their children aloneB.kids should have more activities at schoolC.it’s time to be more strict with our kidsD.parents should always set a good example to their kidsC(55) When a person does a certain thing again, he is impelled(迫使) by some unseen force to do the same thing repeatedly; thus a habit is formed.Once a habit is formed, it is difficult, and sometimes impossible, to get rid of.(56) Children often form bad habits, some of which remain with them as long as they live.Older persons also form bad habits as long as they live.Older persons also form bad habits, and sometimes become ruined by them.(57) Many successful men say that much of their success has something to do with certain habits in early life, such as early rising, honesty and thoroughness.Among the habits which children should not form are laziness, lying, stealing and so on.(58) Unfortunately older persons often form habits which ought to have been avoided.(59)A.There are other habits which, when formed in early life, are of great help.B.Whether good or not habit are, they are easy to get rid of.C.We ought to keep from all these bad habits, and try to form such habits as will prove good forourselves and others.D.Habits, whether good or bad, are gradually formed.E.It is very important for us to know why we should get used to good habbits.F.These are all easily formed habits.G.It is therefore very important that we should pay great attention to the formation of habits.IV.短文改错文中共有10处语言错误,每句中最多有两处。

things shared by Alfred and Anthony Melillo,64yearold twin brothers from East Haven who made history in February 2002.On Christmas Eve,1992,Anthony had a heart transplant from a 21yearold donor.Two days before Valentine's Day in 2002,Alfred received a 19yearold heart,marking the first time on record that twin adults each receive d heart transplants.“I'm 15 minutes older than him,but now I'm younger because of my heart and I'm not going to respect him,”Alfred said with a grin,pointing to his brother while talking to a roomful of reporters,who laughed frequently at their jokes.While the twins knew that genetics might have played a role in their condition,they recognized that their eating habits might have also contributed to their heart problems.“We'd put half a pound of butter on a steak.I overdid it on all the food that tasted good,so I guess I deserved what I got for not dieting properly.”The discussion moved to Anthony's recovery.In the five years since his heart transplant,he had been on an exercise program where he regularly rode a bicycle for five miles,swam each day,and walked a couple of miles.He was still on medication,but not nearly as much as Alfred,who was just in the early stage of his recovery.“Right now I feel pretty young and I'm doing very well,”Anthony said.“I feel like a new person.”Alfred said his goal,of course,was to feel even better than his brother.B ut,he added,“I love my brother very much.We're very close and I'm sure we'll do just fine.”40.This article is mainly about ______.A.the danger of heart transplant

Dan Gustafson heads the Washington office of the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization.He says most of these efforts in the past failed because organizers did not consider what people wanted to eat.But Mr.Gustafson sees a better chance for the efforts to increase the popularity of the orange sweet potato in Africa.“It is because you have got advertising that I think will work.”47.The first two paragraphs tell us that ______.A.people can't see well at night without eating sweet potatoesB.lack of sweet potatoes leads to many child deaths in AfricaC.African orange sweet potatoes are different from those in other placesD.orange sweet potatoes are rich in vitamin A48.Africans usually think that sweet potatoes ______.A.are food for poor peopleB.don't look beautiful in appearanceC.are the main food for womenD.can't grow well in Africa49.How did Jan Low advertise orange sweet potatoes in Africa?A.She sold them in the market herself.B.She spread the benefits of them by performing in some areas.C.She sent messages to the local people by mobile phones.D.She put an advertisement for them on TV.50.The text is mainly about ______.A.a better yet cheaper source of vitamin AB.the difficulty in changing the way people thinkC.the importance of vitamin A for our bodyD.an image problem for the orange sweet potatoⅣ.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。
