B课标话题人与社会·作家体裁记叙文词数272 难度knowledgeable novelist of his time, was born on June 2, 1840, in Dorsetshire, England.He died on January 11, 1928.In his youth, Hardy read much and dreamt ofbecoming a poet, but he studied and practiced architecture as an assistant to a London architect, winning a prize for design.The fine descriptions of structure in his novels were probably somewhat due to his architectural training.For five years Hardy worked hard to practice writing poetry, but when he was twentyseven, he turned to fiction.His first novel finished by 1867, but according to the advice of George Meredith he decided not to publish it.After he abandoned his first novel, his another novel Desperate Remedies, appeared in 1871.During the next twentyfive years he published ten more novels and two collections of short stories.Under the Greenwood Tree(1872) was never surpassed(超越) in happy and delicate perfection of art.This and his next novel, A pair of Blue Eyes(1873), began to show deep irony(讽刺) which is so obvious throughout Hardy’s writings.Far from the Madding Crowd(1874) was his first popular success. It shows Hardy’s amazing power of describing nature as symbolic background for his characters, an organic part of the action of his story. This was the earliest of what he called his novels of character and environment, which included The Return of the Native, Tess of the d’Urbervilles, his masterpiece, and Jude the Obscure. Not until he was fiftyeight years old was his first collection of poems published, and he was sixtyfour when the first part of his drama The Dynasts surprised the literary world.语篇导读本文主要介绍了作家Thomas Hardy和他的一些作品。

Unit 3 The Million Pound Bank Note Ⅰ.阅读理解AJust as the summer draws to a close, I will finally get away on holiday: I have rented a cottage deep in the mountains at the end of the month. What attracted me most was not so much its beautiful countryside, but the word of caution offered by previous visitors. “Please note，” they said, “there is no WiFi here or mobile phone coverage, unless you climb to the top of the nearest mountain.”That's wonderful! A week without feeling the need to check my email for the handful of important messages. While you can always choose not to check your email while on holiday, how many of us have the willpower to ignore the arrival of yet another message, or how many of us can risk losing trust from your boss?There is good news for the employees. The managers of the German car giant Daimler have offered their 100,000 employees an app that automatically deletes all emails sent to their work accounts while they are on holiday. Alternatively, they can be forwarded to a colleague. “Our employees should relax on holiday and not read worklife emails，” said Wilfried Porth, Daimler's board member for human resources. “With ‘Mail on Holiday’， they start back after the holidays with a clean desk. There is no traffic jam in their mailbo x. That is an emotional relief.”The idea of a regular digital detox(禁令) is catching on. The Germans believe that it restores a more sensible worklife balance and helps prevent employee “burnout”. Volkswagen's phone servers have stopped sending emails to employees' BlackBerrys during the evenings. Bosses at Deutsche Telekom agreed to stop sending emails to staff during the evenings, weekends and holidays. Germany's labour ministry, meanwhile, has also instructed its managers to stop emailing or calling st aff outofhours except in an emergency.So, good for Daimler. It recognizes that too many of us have been unable to look up from our phones or iPads. I can't wait to get up to that cottage without any internet connection.Though doubtless after a day or two, I'll be climbing up the nearest mountain, desperately searching for a mobile signal.语篇导读本文为说明文，介绍了一款APP，其功能是过滤邮件，让员工享有不受工作邮件干扰的假期。

2020版高考英语大一轮新优化复习考点强化练13Unit3TheMillionPoundBankNote新人教版必修3Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2018·浙江)Steven Stein likes to follow garbage trucks.His strangehabit makes sense when you consider that he’s an environmental scientist who studies how to reduce litter,including things that fall off garbage trucks as they drive down the road.What is even more interesting is that one of Stein’s jobs is defending an industry behind the plastic shopping bag.Americans use more than 100 billion thin film plastic bags every year.So many end up in tree branches or along highwaysthat a growing number of cities do not allow them atcheckouts(收银台).The bags are prohibited in some 90 cities in California,including Los Angeles.Eyeing these headwinds,plastic-bag makers are hiring scientists like Stein to make the casethat their products are not as bad for the planet as most people assume.Among the bag makers’ arguments:many cities with bans still allow shoppers to purchase paper bags,which are easily recycled but require more energy to produce and transport.And while plastic bags may be ugly to look at,they represent a small percentage of all garbage on the ground today.The industry has also taken aim at the product that has appeared as its replacement:reusable shopping bags.The stronger a reusable bag is,the longer its life and the more plastic-bag use it cancels out.However,longer-lasting reusable bags often require more energy to make.One study found that a cotton bag must be used at least 131 times to be better for the planet than plastic.En vironmentalists don’t dispute(质疑) these points.They hope paper bags will be banned someday too and want shoppers to use the same reusable bags for years.。

Unit 3 The Million Pound Bank Note李仕才***阅读理解。
Dear Mr.Shyamalan，According to the box office，congratulations are in order.It seems your new movie，Split，is doing gangbusters.That means millions of people all over the world have seen or will soon see your story about a man who is suffering from Dissociative Identity Disorder(DID)．As much as I'm rooting for you as an artist，Mr.Shyamalan，personally，I think you climbed to success on the overburdened backs of the mentally ill.As a person who suffers from multiple(多面的)personalities，as well as a psychologist with professional knowledge and skills in the subject，I feel it is my duty to school you in a few facts：People who suffer from DID are not，generally speaking，scary or cheating.We are normal people who silently suffer from a painful condition in which our sense of who we are feels divided into broken parts.Our condition is often caused by a history of severe and repeated child abuse.In truth，we are victims of unimaginable violence.With the release of your movie，you have become my bully(恃强凌弱者)．I am personally harmed by the absurd fixed image you use in Split.Your description of Kevin Crumb as one more gender confused，crossdressing multiple with a liking for violence has the same effect as shouting across the playground，“People with DID are dangerous nut jobs！”I have lived for years with the shame created by movies such as yours.Despite being a successful doctor who runs a charity for adult survivors of child abuse，I live with constant anxiety that people will learn of my diagnosis(诊断)．For no matter how long I've known someone or how highly they think of me，once they know I'm a multiple，the reaction is imaginable.In the future，I'd appreciate it if you stopped using our pain and suffering as materials for your entertainment.Michelle Stevens1．What does the author think of Shyamalan's success?A．His efforts paid off.B．He deserved it.C．He was very fortunate.D．He got it in an immoral way.2．What's the probable cause of DID?A．Alcohol abuse of parents.B．Ill treatment in childhood.C．Tense relations among people.D．Extreme anxiety from life.3．Who is Kevin Crumb according to the text?A．A friend of Mr.Shyamalan's.B．A character in Split.C．A patient of Michelle Stevens'.D．A psychologist with multiple personalities.4．What's the author's purpose in writing the text?A．To give the movie Split a review.B．To show respect for people with DID.C．To state that the movie Split hurt people with DID.D．To argue that people with DID can also make a difference.【解题导语】本文是一封书信。

Supporterssay that the new approach, called reader's workshop, helps develop a love for reading in students who are bored with classic literature. They argue that thebest way to motivate students to read more is to offer them more choices.Not_all_educators_are_on_the_same_page,_however. They worry that students who choose trendy, less challenging titles over the classics won't be exposed to the great writing and key themes of important works of literature.Student reporters Donald and Sarah express their ideas about this new approach.Donald thinks that they should turn the page. Students should be allowed to select the books they read in English class. He says he and his classmates are allowed to pick their own books in class. That makes them more focused, and they look forward to class time. Tristin, a classmate of his at Clinton Middle School agrees. “I'm reading books that I want to read, which makes class more fun and interesting，” he says. Offering students a choice may also improve test scores. Studies by Professor John Guthrie of the University of Maryland found thatstudents in grades 4 through 6 who had some choices in the books they read showed improved reading comprehension skills during testing. Giving students the chanceto decide what they read helps build a lifelong love for reading. Isn't that what we want for our students?Sarah holds a different view. She thinks teachers know more about books than students do. When an English teacher assigns a book, he or she keeps in mind the reading level of most students in the class. Students who choose their own books might be cheating themselves by picking books that are not up to their readinglevel or that are too difficult. Furthermore, a whole class can discuss a book it reads together. That makes it easier for some kids to understand what they are reading. “The students wou ldn't be able to hold a meaningful conversation if they were all reading different books，” says Kristin, an English teacher at Fleetwood Area Middle School. “If they read the same book, their conversations would be more indepth.”16．What's the meaning of the underlined sentence “Not all educators are on the same page”？A．Educators have different opinions.B．Educators didn't appear at the same time.C．Educators wrote in different pages.D．Educators didn't agree with the author.17．Donald thinks that the new approach could ________．A．help students be more focused in classB．draw students to reading classic novelsC．make students less worried in English classD．encourage students to read more challenging books18．Sarah thinks that the new approach might ________．A．help students improve reading comprehension skillsB．help students hold meaningful conversations in classC．make some students read books not suitable for themD．make some students ignore the important works of literature19．Who has the same attitude towards the new approach with Kristin?A．Donald. B．Sarah.C．Tristin. D．John Guthrie.20．The author develops the text mainly by ________．A．listing casesB．making comparisonsC．following time orderD．explaining causes and effectsBArthur Miller(1915－2005)is universally recognized as one of the greatest dramatists of the 20th century. Miller's father had moved to the USA from AustriaHungary，drawn like so many others by the “Great American Dream”. However, he experienced severe financial hardship when his family business was ruined in the Great Depression of the early 1930s.Miller's most famous play, Death of a Salesman, is a powerful attack on the American system，with its aggressive way of doing business and its insistence on money and social status as indicators of worth. In Willy Loman, the hero of the play, we see a man who has got into trouble with this system. Willy is “burnt out” and in the cruel world of business there is no room for sentiment: if hecan't do the work, then he is no good to his employer, the Wagner Company, and he must go. Willy is painfully aware of this, and at a loss as to what to do with his lack of success. He refuses to face the fact that he has failed and kills himself in the end.When it was first staged in 1949，the play was greeted with enthusiastic reviews，and it won the Tony Award for Best Play，the New York Drama Critics' Circle Award，and the Pulitzer Prize for Drama.It was the first play to win all three of these major awards.Miller died of heart failure at his home in Roxbury，Connecticut，on the evening of February 10，2005，the 56th anniversary of the first performance of Death of a Salesman on Broadway.21．Why did Arthur Miller's father move to the USA?A．He suffered from severe hunger in his home country.B．He was attracted by the “Great American Dream”．C．He hoped to make his son a dramatist.D．His family business failed.22．The play Death of a Salesman ________．A．exposes the cruelty of the American business worldB．discusses the ways to get promoted in a companyC．talks about the business career of Arthur Miller D．focuses on the skills in doing business23. What can we learn about Willy Loman?A．He treats his employer badly.B．He runs the Wagner Company.C．He is a victim of the American system.D．He is regarded as a hero by his colleagues.24．After it was first staged, Death of a Salesman________．A．achieved huge successB．won the first Tony AwardC．was warmly welcomed by salesmenD．was severely attacked by dramatists25．What is the text mainly about?A．Arthur Miller and his family.B．The awards Arthur Miller won.C．The hardship Arthur Miller experienced.D．Arthur Miller and his bestknown play.课时作业(十三)Ⅰ.这是一篇记叙文，讲述作者长途开车，中途暂停休息时，被一对中年夫妇的善举所感动的故事。

Here's a bit of an informal snow report for any visitors to the city who may be unfamiliar with the local options for skiing.Sunshine VillageSunshine is definitely the premier ski hill in the area. Of all the hills in Alberta， Sunshine is the one that has earned international renown. Ticketprices are cheaper this year than they have been in the past. Adults pay $76.5，Seniors $61.5， and Children only pay $26.5.At present， they have a snow base of 107 cm. The terrain(地形)is a mix of both easy and hard runs.Lake LouiseOf all the ski resorts nearby it is the largest with 4,200 acres of ski －able terrain. It has the best balance of easy to difficult runs， and it gets snow of 93 cm right now. Adults pay $75.5， Seniors pay 54.5， and Children pay $ke Louise is a great choice for anyone looking to do some easy access back country skiing.Mount NorquayMount Norquay is located across the TransCanada highway from the town of Banff. It has less challenging terrain than either Sunshine or Lake Louise.However， it is also a very economic decision， and it is the only ski hill in the region that offers hourly rates and night skiing on Fridays. All in all this is a great hill to go and spend an afternoon or early evening，or to go and practice a few turns on before hitting up the bigger resorts later on in the season.NakiskaWhile it will be opening shortly， Nakiska is currently only open to the public on the weekends. Nakiska typically has less snow than the other resorts located a bit deeper in the mountains. Currently， they have a base of 71cm. The terrain at Nakiska is varied， but slants more towards the easy side. It's the best place for families to go skiing as there is a lot of beginner and kid terrain for children. Tickets are relatively cheap. Adults pay $64.5，Seniors pay $51.5， and Children only pay $19.5.Canada Olympic ParkC．O.P. was built for the 1988 Winter Olympics； it is a world classfacility for almost every winter sport. It has facilities not only for skiing，but also for all kinds of other activities. It has a snow base of 102cm，but it isn't the primary focus. With tickets starting at $5 and capping at $39， it is very inexpensive.16．What can we know about Sunshine Village？A.It is a ski hill in Europe.B.Its snow is the thickest of the five.C.It is only suitable for ski beginners.D.Its ticket prices are getting higher.17．What doe s the underlined word “renown” in Paragraph 2 mean？A.Good attraction.B．Place of interest.C.Prize or reward.D．Fame or reputation.18．Which will be the best choice for someone who is fond of lots of other sports games besides skiing？A.Sunshine Village.B．Lake Louise.C.Canada Olympic Park.D．Nakiska.19．How much will a woman pay if she and her husband with two children to skiing in the best family place？A.168 dollars.

D．129.5 dollars.20．The passage is mainly to________.A.recommend several famous travel sitesB.tell us the places he's been to for winter sportsC.introduce some good places for skiingD.advertise his local tourist attractionsBMore than 200 scientists have completed a two－year study to identify the most natural and undeveloped areas on the Earth. Their findings are reported in a new book called Wilderness：Earth's Last Wild Places. The book describes 37 wilderness areas around the world. Each has an area greater than 10,000 square kilometers. The study considered only areas where at least 70% of all plants are native.North and South America are home to the largest number of wilderness areas. There are 16 such areas， from southern Argentina to Alaska and northern Canada. Africa has 8 wilderness areas， including the thick forests and the grasslands. Australia and New Guinea (几内亚) share 6 areas. Europe has 3 areas and Asia has 2.The Arabian Desert and Antarctica also are considered wilderness areas.The largest wilderness area is the Boreal Forest (北方森林). It extends for 16 million square kilometers south of the Arctic Circle. The Boreal Forest extends across Alaska， Canada， northern Europe and Russia. The smallest of the 37 wilderness areas is the Sundarbans. It is the world's largest tidal mangrove forest (红树林). It covers 10,000 square kilometers of land at the mouth of the Ganges River in India and Bangladesh (孟加拉国).The study found that wilderness areas cover about 46% of the Earth's land surface. However， they are home to less than 2.5% of the world's population. Nineteen of the wilderness areas have only about one person for each square kilometer. Native people usually live in these areas.Wilderness areas help to influence the world's weather systems and rainfall. They are also home to many plants and animals.

Now, it's time for us to express our nostalgia for this great writer.On Dec 14, 2017, the famous Chinese poet Yu Guangzhong passed away in Taiwan. Born in 1928 in Nanjing, Jiangsu, Yu studied in Sichuan when he was young. At that time, he had showed great interest in Chinese poems and spent a lot of his free time trying writing poems himself. Then he managed to publish his first poem at the age of 20. A year later, Yu and his family moved to Taiwan. He lived and worked there until his death.Nostalgia is Yu's masterpiece in which he expresses his homesickness for the Chinese mainland when he was in Taiwan.Published in 1971, the poem remains highly popular among Chinese speakers worldwide. Even those who know little about literature are familiar with lines from the poem. The poem is included in Chinese high school textbooks.Besides his achievements in poetry, Yu was also a successful essay writer, critic and translator. He once translated English poet Siegfried Sassoon's poem In Me, Past, Present, Future Meet into Chinese. It is regarded as an accurate and powerful translation, in which the most famous line is “心有猛虎，细嗅蔷薇” for “In me the tiger sniffs the rose”．Yu spent his whole life writing. “The reason why I stick to writing till today comes down to my passion for the Chinese language，” he once said in a 2015 interview. He then added that this passion was strengthened by his love for his mother and his motherland.Now, let's appreciate the poem Nostalgia.本文主要介绍了中国当代著名作家、诗人、翻译家余光中及其诗作《乡愁》。

Unit 3 The Million Pound Bank Note***阅读理解。
You’re in your office when you learn there’s someone with a gun wandering outside. You can hear gunshots and screams. What do you do?That’s the challenge for users of a new virtual (虚拟)reality program called SurviVR, designed to train employees how to deal with an active shooter situation in the workplace. The program works with HTC Vive, the virtual reality headset released earlier this year.An active shooter situation is when an armed person or people actively shoot in a small, populated area with the intention to kill. There were 20 such situations in the United States last year and 20 the year before, according to FBI statistics, resulting in a total of 231 deaths. This year saw the deadliest active shooter situation in US history, with 49 people killed in a nightclub in Orlando.In the training situation, users have four choices. They can lock themselves in the office. They can hide, perhaps in the office closet. They can run for an exit. Or they can use something in the office—a computer or a cup a pair of scissors-as a weapon to fight the shooter. This is an improvement on standard active shooter training. Gallo says, which typically teachers people to lock themselves in place and hide. The ＂lock down＂ method is often ineffective, he says, and has resulted in many deaths in recent years.In the training’s basic level, no one gets killed. But as the trainings become more advanced, players who make a wrong choice be shot. There’s no blood; the screen simp ly turns black slowly.If this sounds terrifying, that’s the point, says Gallo. There are plenty of training programs to teach employees how to deal with workplace violence, sometimes involving role play with toy guns. But these trainings are basically games. Gallo says, with employees relaxed and even enjoying themselves. To teach people what they really need to know for an active shooter situation, they need to be scared.＂SurviVR will take the fear and turn it into confidence.＂ Gallo says.1.

What is the suggested response in the standard active shooter training?A. Fighting the shooterB. Running for the exitC. Using a computer as a weaponD. Locking down3.

A New Virtual Reality Program on Active Shooter TrainingB. What Should You Do When Meeting Gunshots in the Workplace?C. How to Deal with an Active Shooter Situation?D.
