A spokesmanfor the Royal Economic Society said applications to do economics at A-level were also up.Professor John Beath, the president of the society and a leading lecture at St Andrews University, said his first-year lectures which are open to students fromall departments—were drawing crowds of 400, rather than the usual 250.“There are a large number of students who are not economics majors, who would like to learn something about it. One of the things I have done this year is to relate my teaching to contemporary events in a way that one hasn’t traditionally done. ” He added.University applications rose 70% last year. But there were rises above averagein several subjects. Nursing saw a 15% jump, with people’s renewed interest in careers in the pubic sector（部门）, which are seen as more secure in economic crisis.A recent study showed almost two thirds of parents believed schools should do more to teach pupils about financial matters, and almost half said their children had asked them what was going on, although a minority of parents felt they did not understand it themselves well enough to explain.Zack Hocking, the head of Child Trust F unds, said: “I t’s possible that one good thing to arise from the downturn will be a generation that’s financially wiser and better equipped (使…有能力) to manage their money through times of economic uncertainty.”1. Professor John Beath’s lectures are .A. given in a traditional wayB. connected with the present situationC. open to both students and their parentsD. warmly received by economics2. Careers in the public sector are more attractive because of their .A. greater stabilityB. higher payC. fewer applicationsD. better reputation3. In the opinion of most parents , .A. economics should be the focus of school teachingB. more students should be admitted to universitiesC. the teaching of financial matters should be strengthened.D. children should solve financial problems themselves4. According to Hocking , the global economic crisis might make the youngsters_____.A. wiser in money managementB. have access to better equipmentC. confident about their future careersD. get jobs in Child Trust Funds5. What’s the main idea of the text?A. Universities have received more applications.B. Economics is attracting an increasing number of studentsC. college students benefit a lot from economic uncertaintyD. parents are concerned with children’s subject selection.BPaula Radcliffe, chasing(角逐)a third London marathon title(冠军),says she has become a stronger person after her terrible experience at the 2004 Athens Games.Radcliffe, who failed to complete the Olympic marathon and the 10,000m last August, said: “Athens made me a stronger person and it made me care about criticism(批评).”“In the past I wanted to please everyone, but now I am going to listen even more to the people around me.”She didn’t care about criticism made at the weekend by Liz McColgan, who felt Radcliffe should have rested and let her body recover after her failure in Athens.“Liz is someone I look up to but she hasn’t spoken to me last year and if she really cared for me, I’m sure she would have contacted(联系)me.”Instead Radcliffe won the New York City marathon just 11 weeks after Athens.“In New York I wasn’t in my best state but I did know I was good enough to win the race.”Radcliffe insisted her only goal in Sunday’s race would be winning a third title and not chasing world records.However, Radcliffe has not ruled out(排除)in the future chasing her “final”world record time and questioned sayings that marathon runners have the ability in their career to produce only four or five world-class times.“I don’t think that---although I can’t put a number on it,”said Radcliffe. “That changes from person to person.”Radcliffe is sure she can better her winning London 2003 performance some point in the future. Following a successful three-month training period in the United States, the 31-year-old will chase a third title on Sunday after her first victory in 2002 and again 12 months later.Radcliffe clocked a time 2:18:56 in her first 42.2-kilometre race three years ago.Afterwards she set a “mixed course” mark of 2:17:18 five months later in Chicago before lowering that to a time of 2:15:25 in the 2003 London event.6. Radcliffe’s failure in Athens made her ______.A. face criticism calmlyB. rest for five monthsC. love people around her moreD. develop respect for Liz7. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. Radcliffe broke the world record in the New York City marathon.B. Radcliffe didn’t fully recover before the New York City marathon.C. Radcliffe won her first marathon title in the New York City marathonD. Radcliffe had a 3-month training before the New York City marathon.8. By saying “I can’t put a number on it “, Radcliffe means she’s not sure ______.A. if she has the ability to set a new world recordB. if she can win another race though she has won many timesC. how many times a marathon runner can set the world recordD. if she has the ability to produce four or five world-class times9. According to the text, Radcliffe has won_____ London marathon title(s).A. oneB. twoC. threeD. four10. What can we learn from Radcliffe’s story?A. Practice makes perfect.B. Well begun is half doneC. A friend in need is a friend indeedD. Where there is a will, there is a way.CAdvertisers tend to think big and perhaps this is why they're always coming in for criticism. Their critics（批评家）seem to hate them because they have so much money to throw around. Why don’t they stop advertising and reduce the price of their goods? After all, it’s the consumer who pays.The poor old consumer! He'd have to pay a great deal more if advertising didn't create mass markets for products. It is precisely because of the heavy advertising that consumer goods are so cheap. But we get the wrong idea if we think the only purpose of advertising is to sell goods. Another equally important function is to inform. A great deal of the knowledge we have about household goods is largely from the advertisements we read. Advertisements introduce us to new products or remind us of the existence of ones we already know about. Supposing you wanted to buy a washing machine, it is more than likely you would obtain details regarding performance, price, etc., from an advertisement.Lots of people pretend that they never read advertisements, but this claim may be seriously doubted. It is hardly possible not to read advertisements these days. And what fun they often are, too! Just think what a railway station or a newspaper would be like without advertisements. Would you enjoy gazing at a blank wall or reading railway byelaws while waiting for a train? A cheerful, witty advertisement makes such a difference to a dull wall or a newspaper full of the incidents and disasters.We must not forget, either, that advertising makes a positive contribution to our pockets. The fact that we pay so little for our daily paper, or can enjoy somany broadcast programmers is due entirely to the money spent by advertisers. Just think what a newspaper would cost if we had to pay its full price!Another thing we mustn't forget is the “small ads.” What a tremendously useful service they perform for the community! Just about anything can be accomplished through these columns. For instance, you can find a job, buy or sell a house, announce a birth, marriage or death in what used to be called the “hatch, match and dispatch” column(栏目) but by far the most fascinating section is the personal or “agony” column. No other item in a newspaper provides such entertaining reading or offers such a deep insight into human nature. It's the best advertisement for advertising there is!11. What is the main idea of this passage?A. Advertisements steal money from our pocketsB. The critics get the wrong idea of advertisements.C. Advertisers perform a useful service to communities.D. Advertisements are everywhere.12. What is the attitude of the author towardadvertisements?A. He appreciates the role of advertisements.B. He doubts the effect of advertisements.C. He believes what is said in advertisements.D. He complains too many advertisements in daily life.13. Which of the following is Not True?A. The personal or “agony” column makes us know more about human nature.B. The only purpose of advertising is to sell goods.C. A newspaper will cost us more if there is no advertisement on it.D. Advertisement makes our life colorful.14. Which of the following shows the structure of the passage?A． B． C． D．①①①①②②③②③④③④④⑤⑤⑤②③④⑤( ①= Paragraph 1, ②= paragraph 2, ③= paragraph 3,④= paragraph 4 ⑤= paragraph 5 )四、阅读表达Many students want to find friends on the Internet as a way of practising their language skills and learning more about new cultures. Traditional pen pals were the primary source for such contacts, and students could write each other letters. With the Internet, fingding friends has become much easier, and such relationships are called key pals.However, care and consideration should be given when finding friends on the Internet:Search the Internet for reputable(有信誉的) services. Look for reviews of such sites to learn more about other students’ experiences. Don’t join a service until you have done your research.Check to see if you can use a nickname, instead of __________, to protect your identity.Never give personal information to anyone, including your home address, phone number, and birthday.Stop contact with others if you feel uncomfortable with the topics of conversation. Again, if you protect your identity, this will be easier to do. Tell your teachers, parents, or even local law enforement if problem arise.Try to use the language you are studying in the classroom in your communication with others.Ask appropriate questions that will also help you learn about other cultures. Remember that someone’s personal experience might help you to understand a whole culture. You have to talk to many different people, and this will get you started.1.

I was looking forward to having five days off from duty. Unfortunately, the only one train a day back to my home in Sydney had already left. So I thought I’d hitch a ride (搭便车).I waited by the side of the highway for three hours but no one stopped for me. Finally, a man walked over and introduced himself as Gordon. He said that although he couldn’t give me a lift, I should come back to his house for lunch. He noticed me standing for hours in the November heat and thought I must be hungry. I was doubtful as a young girl but he assured (使…放心) me I was safe, and he also offered to help me find a lift home afterwards. When we arrived at his house, he made us sandwiches. After lunch, he helped me find a lift home.Twenty-five years later, in 2003, while I was driving to a nearby town one day, I saw an elderly man standing in the glaring heat, trying to hitch a ride. I thought it was another chance to repay someone for the favour I’d been given decades earlier. I pulled over and picked him up. I made him comfortable on the back seat and offered him some water.After a few moments of small talk, the man said to me, “You haven’t changed a bit, even your red hair is still the same.”I couldn’t remember where I’d met him. He then told me he was the man who had given me lunch and helped me find a lift all those years ago. It was Gordon.1.The author had to hitch a ride one clay in 1978 because .A.her work delayed her trip to SydneyB.she was going home for her holidaysC.the town was far away from SydneyD.she missed the only train back home2.Which of the following did Gordon do according to Paragraph 2?A.He helped the girl find a ride.B.He gave the girl a ride back home.C.He bought sandwiches for the girl.D.He watched the girl for three hours.3.The reason why the author offered a lift to the elderly man wasthat .A.she realized he was GordonB.she had known him for decadesC.she was going to the nearby townD.she wanted to repay the favour she once got4.What does the author want to tell the readers through the story?A.Giving sometimes produces nice results.B.Those who give rides will be repaid.C.Good manners bring about happiness.D.People should offer free rides to others.3、It happens every spring. Flowers suddenly burst out everywhere on the same day. But how exactly do plants “know” when to flower?It is a question that has puzzled biologists for years. But according to Science Daily, a US research group may have finally answered it---the secret lies in a protein called FKF1 which allows plants to sense the differences in day lengths so that they can tell the seasons are changing. They found that the protein can be activated (激活) by sunlight.Plants produce this protein every day in the late afternoon throughout the year. If there is no light at this time, for example, in winter when the sun goes down early, the protein won’t be activated. But when spring comes and the days get longer, the protein can be activated by day-light and the plants “know” it is time to flower.Although researchers have only studied how the FKF1 protein works in some experimental plants, they believe it is similar in many other plants, including crops like rice and wheat. This could be useful to the agricultural industry.“If we can control the timing of flowering, we might be able to increase crop production by speeding or delaying this,’ said Takato Imaizumi, assistant professor at the University of Washington and leader of the study. “Also, if we could control the timing of flowering in horticultural (园艺的) plants, they may be worth more commercially (商业上)”New technology based on this research might also lead to higher production of biofuel (生物燃料) plants. This would be helpful for providing energy.1. How do plants know when to flower?A. They receive messages from other plants.B. A certain protein tells them the time to flower.C. They are genetically (基因遗传上) timed to flower.D. Sunlight produces a certain protein in them to help them flower.2. What can we learn from the article?A. We are getting closer to controlling plant flowering times.B. Plants are more sensitive to cold weather and shorter days.C. When there is no sunlight, the FKF1 protein won’t b e produced.D. Researchers have studied how the FKF1 works in rice and wheat.3. The study mentioned in the article may help us understand how to ____.A. increase the number of species of horticultural plantsB. increase production in the agricultural industryC. have plants that flower all year roundD. produce more chemical energy4、 The need for a surgical operation, especially an emergency operation, almost always comes as a severe shock to the patient and his family. Despite modern advances, most people still unreasonably fear hospitals and anesthetics (麻醉药). Patientsdo not often believe they really need surgery---cutting into a part of the body as opposed to treatment with drugs.In the early years of this century there was little specialization in surgery.A good surgeon was capable of performing almost every operation that had been devised up to that time. Today the situation is different. Operations are now being carried out that were not even dreamed of fifty years ago. The heart can be safely opened and its valves (阀门;心脏或血管的瓣膜) repaired. Clogged blood vessels can be cleaned out, and broken ones mended or replaced. A lung, the whole stomach, or even part of the brain can be removed and still permit the patient to live a comfortable and satisfactory life. However, not every surgeon wants to, or is qualified to carry out every type of modern operation.The scope (范围, 广度, 机会) of surgery has increased remarkably in this century. Its safety has increased too. Deaths from most operations are about 20% of what they were in 1910 and surgery has been extended in many directions, for example to certain types of birth defects (缺陷) in newborn babies, and, at the other end of the scale, to life-saving operations for the octogenarian (八旬老人). The hospital stay after surgery has been shortened to as little as a week for most major operations. Most patients are out of bed on the day after an operation and may be back at work in two or three weeks.Many developments in modern surgery are almost unbelievable. They include the replacement of damaged blood vessels with simulated ones made of plastic; the replacement of heart valves with plastic substitutes; the transplanting of tissues such as the lens of the eye; the invention of the artificial kidney to clean the blood of poisons at regular intervals and development of heart and lung machines to keep patients alive during very long operations. All these things open a hopeful vista (前景,远景) for the future of surgery.One of the most revolutionary areas of modern surgery is that of organ transplants. Until a few years ago, no person, except an identical twin, was able to accept into his body the tissues of another person without reacting against them and eventually killing them. Recently, however, it has been discovered that withthe use of x-rays and special drugs, it is possible to graft tissues from one person to another which will survive for periods of a year or more. Kidneys have been successfully transplanted between non-identical twins. Heart and lung transplants have been reasonably successful in animals, though rejection problems in humans have yet to be solved.‘Spare parts’ surgery, the simple routine replacement of all worn-out organs by new ones, is still a dream of the distant future. As yet, surgery is not ready for such miracles. In the meantime, you can be happy if your doctor says to you, ‘Yes, I think it is possible to operate on you for this condition.’1.Surgeons in the early years of this century, compared with modern ones, _____.A.had less to learn about surgeryB.needed more knowledgeC.could perform every operation known todayD.were more trusted by their patients2.Modern surgeons_____.A.do not like to perform operations of the new typeB.are not as highly qualified as the older onesC.are required to specialize more than their predecessors (前任们)D.often perform operations which are not really needed3.The main difficulty with organ transplants is _____.A.it is difficult to find organs of exactly the same sizeB.only identical twins can give permission for their organs to be exchangedC.the body’s tendency to reject alien tissuesD.the patient is not allowed to use drugs after them4.‘Spare parts’ surgery _____.A.has yet to become a realityB.will be available in the near futureC.is only possible for animalsD.has been replaced by modern drug treatments5.You can be happy if your surgeon can operate because it means _____.A.he thinks your condition may be curableB.he is a good doctorC.he knows you will surviveD.you are getting better already5、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。

人教版2020年高一英语暑假作业(含答案)：第29天M4U3单元练习
第29天M43单元练习(一)(建议用时：45分钟)一、阅读理解AWhen I was a boy there were no smart phones, and our television only got one channel clearly. Still, I never felt bored. The fields, hills and woodlands around my home were the perfect playground whose adventures were only limited by my imagination. I can remember once hiking to a nearby lake and walking slowly around it. At the back of it I was amazed to find an old dirt road that I had never seen before. It was full of muddy tyre tracks and deep woods bordered it on both sides, but exploring it still seemed like a fine adventure.I walked on and on for what seemed like hours. I was sure my guardian angel was whispering in my ear “turn around and head back home”，but I was stubborn and walked on. There was still neither a car nor a house in sight. I noticed that the sun was starting to go down and I grew scared. I didn't want to end up being trapped on this road, and I was worried that it would be dark before I could make my way back to the lake again.I continued to walk on with something growing inside of me. My heart was pounding and my legs were aching. I was almost in tears when I saw something in the distance. It was a house that I recognized. I jumped up and down and laughed out loud. It was still over a mile away, but my legs felt like feathers and I hurried back to my house in no time. I walked in with a big smile on my face just in time for dinner. Then I ended my adventure with a good night's sleep.I often thought of that experience recently. Actually, in our life, all roads, no matter how they twist and turn, can lead us home again. They can lead us to our homes here on the earth. They can lead us to our homes in our hearts. May you always walk your path with love! May you always help your fellow travelers along the way! And may your roads always lead you home again!()1. Why did the author hardly feel bored when he was young?A. He could watch TV all day.B. He could have fun in nature.C. He had many friends to play with.D. He used to explore the old dirt road.()2. What does the underlined word “something” in Paragraph 3 probably refer to?A. Doubt.B. Hope.C. Fear.D. Courage.()3. What may be the best title for the passage?A. Every Effort Is WorthwhileB. All Roads Lead HomeC. Be Determined in Your LifeD. Be Brave to AdventureBRestaurants in Europe, the United States and Japan are testing technology to let diners order their food direct from a screen at their table instead of depending on a fellow human being to note their choice.Besides cutting costs, companies that sell the“e-menu” argue the approach has a new value that can attract younger customers, and increase income as inviting photographs of steaks and desserts make diners want to order more.In Israel, privately owned start-up Conceptic has already installed e-menu technology in sushi(寿司) bars, pubs and family restaurants. The system is based on touch-screens already used in self-service canteens or for ticketing in airports and cinemas.“It's about impulse buying(冲动消费)，”said Adi Chitayat, Conceptic's chief executive. “If a person starts looking at pictures of chocolate cake, the chances are that he'll order it.”The firm has also supplied its systems to restaurants in France, South Africa and Belgium.Frame, a sushi restaurant in Tel Aviv which has installed the system, said sales on tables with the e-menu have increased by about 11 percent. Customers often call ahead to book spots equipped with the screens, manager Natalie Edry told reporters.At one of the e-menu tables, information technology worker Gil Uriel and his young family were enthusiastic as they checked out pictures of the dishes on offer and talked over desserts.“It's more visual，” said Uriel. “We can still choose, and we can still argue — but it's much easier when you can see it.”()4. What would be the best title for the passage?A. Restaurants Cut CostsB. Restaurants Try E-menusC. Impulse BuyingD. New Ways to Enjoy Food()5. According to the passage, what makes customers want to order more at the e-menu tables?A. The low cost on tables with the e-menus.B. The vivid image of food on the e-menus.C. The fine service provided by the waitress.D. The wider choice of food on the e-menus.()6. What's Gil Uriel's attitude toward the e-menus?A. Opposed.B. Uncertain.C. Doubtful.D. Approving.()7. This passage is written to ________.A. express opinionsB. persuade customersC. give informationD. present findingsCAt first sight, Alma Deutscher, a twelve-year-old girl from England appears to be like any other typical pre-teen. She loves to skip rope, read and play with her younger sister. But this modest youngster, who composed her first musical work at age six, first short opera at age seven, and first full-length opera based on Cinderella at age ten, is anything but average. Though her parents downplay her extraordinary talent, young Alma is being described as “little Mozart” by the music world.Alma's operatic take on the classic fairy tale, which she began writing at age eight, has a slight twist. Her Cinderella is a musician who meets her Prince Charming through a song. “In my Cinderella, she sings the beginning of a ballad... but at midnight she flees. Eventually, the prince finds her after asking all the maidens of the land to sing the end of the ballad.”The opera was first performed in Vienna, Austria on December 29, 2016, where the then eleven-year-old skillfully switched between the piano and the violin and received enthusiastic reviews. The young genius has since performed two new piano works, once in Australia and the other in China.While this may appear to be a lot for someone so young, Alma is not worried. She says, “Of course I have to work hard. But all children have to work hard for exams, and at least when I work hard, I work hard for something incredibly exciting, like seeing my whole opera put on stage.”Alma's musical talent first came to light before she could even talk. Her parents recall that as an 18-month-old toddler, she was able to hum a pitch perfect version of the children's rhyme T w inkleT w inkle Little Star.However, Alma's abilities only gained international attention in 2012, after a family friend posted a video online comparing her to Mozart. The family was suddenly swamped with media requested and Alma became an overnight star, dubbed “little Mozart”. This nickname makes her parents unhappy because they believe it puts added pressure on the young girl. They would instead prefer her to be calle d “a composer and musician”．Alma does not want to be compared to the famous artist either, saying, “There was only one Mozart, and I prefer to be little Alma.” Regardless of what she calls herself, the twelveyearold is changing the world of music forever!()8. What do we know about Alma Deutscher?A. She comes from a famous musical family.B. She has shown great musical talent from a young age.C. She regularly performs the classical music of Mozart.D. She has adapted some famous works of classical music.()9. How did Alma get to be widely known?A. Through an online video.B. By performing on television.C. By putting on an opera.D. Through her parents' promotion.()10. What is Alma's attitude towards her success?A. She is still unsatisfied with her performance.B. She is uncomfortable with so much pressure.C. She is modest about her musical achievements.D. She is proud to have become a professional musician.()11. What can we infer about Alma's parents?A. They are very well-educated people.B. They are protective of their daughter.C. They have pushed Alma to take up music.D. They have made a good life plan for Alma.DLove to laugh out loud? Then you may be the perfect candidate for laugh, a global project to create the first piece of art in outer space using the International Space Station's(ISS) newly acquired 3D printer. While transforming an emotion into art may seem a little far-fetched, Eyal Gever isknown for his gift for combining art and technology to make 3D sculptures from life-like digital simulations based on moments in time.He was offered the project by Made In Space Inc. that specializes in manufacturing 3D printers for use in microgravity. Realizing the enormous responsibility of being the first artist whose work is created in space, Gever wanted to choose a subject with universal appeal—something that would be appreciated by everyone regardless of country or culture. After considering several ideas, he settled on creating a 3D human laughter, an emotion that is loved and treasured by all of humanity.People wishing to send their giggles to space have to download the laugh app and record their best laughter. The app turns the sound file into a 3D model that resembles a burst of light or a “laugh star” which can be shared on so cial media and also rated by other app users. The laughter that receives the maximum number of likes and tweets by December 31, will be declared the winner.The artist will then transmit the design file of the winning laugh to NASA's Operations Support Center in Alabama, where it will be uploaded via a satellite link to the ISS.
