2021年高中英语Unit3Lifeinthefuture单元检测试题含解析新人教版Ⅰ.阅读理解When important events are happening around the world, most people turn to traditional media sources, such as CNN and BBC for the news. However, during the war in Iraq in xx, many people followed the war from the point of view of an unknown Iraqi citizen who called himself "Salam Pax" (Salam Pax means peace).Salam Pax wrote a diary about everyday life in Baghdad during the war, and posted it on his website. Pax's online diary was a kind of website known as a "blog". Blogs are online diaries, usually kept by individuals, but sometimes by panies and other groups of people. They are the fastest growing types of website on the Internet.A blog differs from a traditional website in several ways. Most importantly, it is updated much more regularly. Many blogs are updated every day, and some are updated several times a day. Also, most blogs use special software or websites, which can help ordinary people easily set up and start writing their own blogs.There are many different kinds of blogs. The most popular type is an online diary of links where the blog writer surfs the Internet and then posts links to sites or news articles that they find interesting, with a few ments about each one. Other types are personal diaries, where the writer talks about theirlife and feelings. Sometimes these blogs can be very personal.There is another kind of blogging, called "moblogging", short for "mobile blogging".Mobloggers use mobile phones with cameras to take photos, which are posted instantly to the Internet. The use of mobile phones in this way made the headlines in Singapore when a high school student posted a movie he had taken of a teacher shouting at another student on the Internet. Many people were shocked by what the student did, and wanted phones with cameras to be banned from schools.Many people think that as blogs bee mon, news reporting will rely less on big media panies, and more on ordinary people posting news to the Internet. They think that then the news will be less like a lecture, and more like a conversation, where anyone can join in.1. Which statement about Salam Pax was true?A. He worked for CNN.B. Salam Pax was not his real name.C. He was famous as a host in BBC.D. He used a mobile phone for his blog.2. What is the biggest difference between blogs and traditional websites?A. Blogs use special software.B. Blogs contain personal information.C. Blogs are updated much more often.D. Blogs contain links to other websites.3. According to the passage, in the future it is likely that ________.A. everyone will have a blogB. blogging technology will be bannedC. large media panies will be unnecessaryD. people will be able to learn the news from other points of view4. What is the passage mainly about?A. The war in Iraq.B. New types of media.C. The history of the Internet.D. The increase of using puters.BLast month, Justin Valdez, a college student, was shot in a subway station in San Francisco. The surveillance video(监控录像) showed that before Justin was killed, the killer pulled out his gun several times, and even wiped his nose with it. However, nobody noticed the killer. The surrounding passengers all focused on their cell phones.We may see the same scene everywhere in our life: in subway stations, restaurants, elevators and so on, people are watching their cell phones. From a family reunion to a date with a friend, people couldn’t stop checking their twitter and facebook on the cell phones and ignoring the persons in front pletely, Phubbing(低头症) not only involves young people, but also the elderly and kids.“Phubbing” is a new term which es from the words “phone” and “snub(冷落)”. It describes the habit of snubbing someone in favor of a cell phone. The word “phubbing” was included in the Australian National Dictionary in xx. Obviously, the indifference冷漠) and rudeness of the information age are spreading globally.A Stop Phubbing campaign website has been set up. You can find the slogan of the website as follows: “stop twittering, stop posting photos…enjoy your food, enjoy the music and respect others.”Phubbing appears harmless. However, it does influence our life. Jimmy, an epicure(美食家), wrote in his blog: “I can no longer focus on what I am eating since I started twittering. My skill of food photography has improved very fast, whilemy interest in food drops as a result.”Let us put down our cell phones and re-enjoy the real taste of our food and the warmth of interpersonal munication.5. The case of Justin Valdez is given in the first paragraph to show________ .A. gun violence happens easily in the USB. phubbing may lead to terrible disastersC. the killer didn’t mean to kill himD. the killer had made a careful plan6. What will probably happen when you ask a phubbing person for help?A. He will give you an immediate reply.B. He will stop looking at his cell phone.C. He will pay no attention to you.D.

What is the text mainly about?A. How the word “phubbing” came into being.B. The popular campaign of stop phubbing.C. The meaning of the word “phubbing”.D. The great harm of phubbing.Ⅱ.完形填空阅读下面的短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

AHow the iron of tomorrow(the first Self Clean Iron)can change your lifestyle today? General Electric introduces the iron of tomorrow. The iron can clean itself inside where irons get dirty. Because it cleans itself each and every time you empty it. How? With a push of a magic blue button.The magic blue buttonThe first thing you'll notice that's different about this iron is the blue button on the side. It's marked “Self Clean”. Push this blue button, and you can wash out loose mineral deposits that remain and block up inside. Push this button, and you’ve made life a lot easier.Less chance of brown spotsSure, Self Cleaning Iron is going to cut down on brown spots. (Those ugly spots that happen on nice, cleanly pressed clothes.) Because a Self Cleaning Iron becomes clean each time you press that magic blue button.Steams much longerCommon sense tells you that if you've an iron that blocks less often it has to stay younger for a long period of time. In other words, it steams much longer. That’s another joy of owning General Electric’s Self Cleaning Iron.What does it mean to youToday you are doing so much more than just running a house and running after the kids. You're working. You're going to school. It's all part of your lifestyle. The iron can change that lifestyle. By giving you less trouble before you iron. If we can make it easier for you to be a better wife, a better mother, a better house-maker, we want to. The new Self Cleaning Iron is another one of Home-Makers from General Electric.Life-style.We're with yours.GENERAL ELECTRICA-1 阅读明白得依照以上短文的内容,从每小题所给的A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出最佳答案。

I crouched (蹲) low there and immersed (沉浸于) myself in the false hope of finding a treasure (宝物) larger than the small 16 on the shore.A man jogged along the waves 17 my direction. When he came near me, he slowed to a walk. I didn't 18 him until he was almost standing over me. Too young to be 19 of strangers, I got on my feet and looked at him. It was then that I saw what was in his 20 , a beautiful bright cream-colored shell, the kind of thing that I was looking for. He smiled as I stared in 21 , and then, to my shock, he handed it to me. I held it 22 before me like a diamond, not 23 my eyes.“I think you will like it,” he said, and then continued his 24 down the beach.I do not 25 his voice, his clothes or even his face, 26 I do still have the shell, and the greatest lesson I've ever 27 . Now the shell sits on my bedside table, not as 28 and big as it was, but it is still there, a 29 reminder that there is 30 in the world.That man saved my belief in the kindness of people, and he saved my belief that one can find what means something in life. I see my shell every day, and I kn ow that I can 31 bad days because there are good things in my life. In the end, all that we have is 32 we have done for others. The shell is 33 to me, as important as another man who returned to the plane to 34 me my lost jacket.I know that 35 a difference in someone's life, no matter how big or small, is what truly matters, and that it is worth all the treasure in the world.16.

Johnny cut out each quote and signed his name on every one of them. Then he put them in a paper bag he k ept beside him at work. When he finished bagging someone's food, he put his “Thought for the Day” in the customer's bag.It touched me to think that this young man had made his job important by making good memories for all his customers.A month later the store manager called me. He said, “Barbara, you won't believe what happened today. When I was making my rounds, I found Johnny's line was three times longer than anyone else's! So I got more cashiers (收银员) out here and got more lanes (通道) open, trying to get people to change lanes. But no one would move. They want Johnny's ‘Thought for the Day'.”He continued, “I got a lump in the throat when one woman came up to me and said, ‘I used to shop at your store only once a week, but now I come in every time I go by for Johnny's ‘Thought for the Day'.”A few months later, the store manager called me again. “Barbara,” he said, “Johnny has changed our store. Now when there's a broken flower, there'll be an elderly woman or a little girl to repair it. All of our cashiers now have their own personal signature (签名). Our customers are talking about us ... in a good way, coming back, and bringing their friends.”36. Johnny cut out those quotes to ______.A. encourage himself to work hardB. make good memories for his customersC. get his manager's praiseD. draw others' attention37. How did Johnny deal with those quotes?A. He handed them to customers before they left.B. He let others hand quotes to customers.C. He put them in customers' shopping-bags.D. He put them in customers' pockets.38. What did the store manager see a month later?A. Customers didn't buy anything but asked for “Thought for the Day”.B. Many customers chose Johnny's line to pay for their food.C. The store was once out of order because there were too many customers.D. All of his cashiers had their own personal signature.39. The underlined part “a lump in the throat” (in Paragraph 4) probably means “______”.A. sorryB. sadC. worriedD. movedB ★★It was in 1865 that two Frenchmen were looking into the future. Edouard de Laboulaye, who studied history, admired the United States greatly. Frederic Auguste Bartholdi was a famous artist. De Laboulaye was thinking about 1876, when the country he respected so much would celebrate its 100th birthday. What gift would be good enough for the people of France to give? Right away, Bartholdi thought of a giant statue. Bartholdi kept thinking about a statue for several years. Then, in 1871, he visited the United States and saw the perfect place for a huge statue. It was Bedloe's Island in New York.The project —the Statue of Liberty —got started almost immediately, and Bartholdi went home to F rance to begin work. However, the statue was not finished in time for the 100th birthday. The United States Congress approved (批准) the use of Bedloe's Island on February 22, 1877. During the 100th celebration in 1876, the arm of the statue that would hold the torch was shown in Philadelphia. In 1879 the huge head was put on display in France. For the face of the statue, Bartholdi used his mother as a model.The statue was finally completed in 1884. The work had been difficult enough, but then some really hard work began. The statue had to be taken apart and packed into boxes. It was not u ntil May 1885 that the statue — in pieces — left France for its new home.The statue arrived in June. However, the Americans fell behind on their part of the project. They hadn't raised enough money for building the base of the statue. People wondered if the country really needed or wanted such a gift. Finally, though, the money was raised and the base was completed. The last piece of the statue was put in place on October 28, 1886.40. What's the right order of the following events?a. The arm of the statue that would hold the torch was shown in Philadelphia. . The United States Congress approved the use of Bedloe's Island.c. The huge head of the statue was put on display in France.d. Bartholdi visited the United States.A. dabcB. dbacC. bacdD. bdac41. When did the work on the statue begin?A. As soon as Bartholdi thought of it.B. After the United States Congress agreed to it.C. After Bartholdi saw Bedloe's Island.D. Not until the US had raised enough money.42. What happened after the Statue of Liberty was completed?A. It was put together for shipping.B. It was taken apart and packed for shipping.C. It was cleaned up for shipping.D. It was put in place on its base in France.43. How many years did it take for the Statue of Liberty to be put in place on its base after it was completed?A. 19.B. 15.C. 1.D. 2.C ★Last July, we asked what you dream of doing as an adult. Thanks for your great responses! We wish we had room to print them all. Here are just a few.Work and PlayMy dream job is being a construction worker, but only on an amusement park. James Martian, Age 9AlaskaRoyal Fashion DesignerMy dream job is to sew dresses for a queen. I could make whatever design I wanted. Her breakfast dress would be blue and long. Her lunch dress is purple and medium. Her dinner dress is red and short. They would all have sparkles (闪烁的光). I think they would be pretty. I like my dream job.Jenna Suchyta, Age 6WashingtonA “PoliceLawFireman”When I grow up, I want to be a policeman or a fireman or a lawyer because they help people. Maybe I will combine all three and become a “PoliceLawFireman”. I can work as a policeman in the morning. I can do law things in the afternoon. I can do fireman things in the evening. But for now, I want to be a boxer to build up my muscles.I will need my strength!Avi Samuels, Age 7IllinoisPlaying in the BandMy dream job is to become a professional guitarist and vocalist (歌手) for my future five-member rock band. I practice the acoustic (原声的) guitar, and I have written hundreds of songs! The reason I want to be a guitarist and vocalist is that I am very interested in music itself, so I want to create some of my own.Jake Francis, Age 12Ohio44. What do you think is the best title for the passage?A. Your future!B. Your dream job!C. Your idea!D. Your great chance!45. Who has done something for his / her future?A. James Martian.B. Avi Samuels.C. Jenna Suchyta.D. Jake Francis.46. Where can you find this passage?A. In a children's magazine.B. In a fashion magazine.C. In an entertainment newspaper.D. On a website.D ★★In the far, far future, bicycles and perhaps skates may be run by jet power, and a new thing to ride may be a small flying saucer (飞碟). Imagine a race between them!There may be telepathy helmets (心灵感应帽) that send thought waves from your brain to that of your friend miles away. You just think a thought and your friend knows it! You can have secrets with each other that nobody else can turn in on!What about the food of the future? Scientists think that much of it will be artificial — made in factories from such surprising things as coal, limestone, air, and water. The artificial food will be healthful because all the things that you need to live a long and healthy life will be put into it.The future hospitals will probably have “body banks” that can give you almost any new part you need to keep on living. People of the future may live to be a lot older than 100 years.What about highways of the future? Well, a very small child probably will be able to drive a car. Nobody will need to steer (驾驶). Electric signals will hold each car on the right road to get wherever the “driver” wants to go. And it probably will be impossible for cars to smash together. Controls that won't even have to be touched will make all speeding cars miss each other or will put on the brakes. Driving cars will be as safe as being at home.But maybe the most wonderful surprise in the future will be weather control. Cities ma y have giant plastic domes (圆顶罩) over them to keep out snow, rain, or storms. When you plan a picnic in a park, you won't have to worry about rain. It will rain only when the “weatherman” thinks it is necessary to fresh the air inside the city. All other days will be fair and warm.The future should be a wonderful time in which to live and the time we are living in now is also a wonderful future to the people who lived 100 years ago.47. The underlined word “that” (in Paragraph 2) refers to ______.A. telepathy helmetB. the brainC. thought waveD. the secret48. What can we learn from the passage?A. With telepathy helmets, we can share o ur thoughts without any word.B. The artificial food made from coal and limestone tastes the most delicious in the future.C. There will be “body banks” instead of hospitals in the future.D. Plastic domes themselves can automatically control the weather.49. With the future highways, ______.A. small children have to learn to driveB. car accidents still couldn't be avoidedC. we can be taken to the destination without steeringD. cars will be no longer equipped with brakes50. The author's attitude towards the future life is ______.A. optimisticB. pessimisticC. satisfiedD. doubtfulE ★★★Like cats, geckos (壁虎) always land on their feet. If they happen to fall from a wall or leaf they've been climbing, a quick move of the tail makes sure that they land feet first.Geckos are truly built for climbing: their special feet have hairy toes fixed to a wall or other vertical (垂直的) surface in just a few thousandths of a second. This lets geckos run 15 body lengths up a vertical surface in just one second. Researchers had thought this was all the equipment geckos needed to keep their feet firmly on the wall. But it turns out that's not the case. A gecko's long tail becomes necessary to stay wall-bound when its feet move on a slippery surface, and also if its feet can't keep hold.The researchers noticed that when g eckos fell or jumped off a wall, they always landed stomach-side down regardless of whether they began falling upside-down (颠倒地).To find out how they righted themselves during their falling, the researchers conducted an experiment by placing the geckos upside-down on what looks like the underside of a leaf. When they lost their foothold and fell, the geckos moved their tails so that they were at a right angle with their bodies. They then rotated (使旋转) their tails to make their bodies rotate. As soon as they were right-side up, they stopped rotating. On average, it only took the geckos about 100 milliseconds to right themselves so that they would land on their feet.Cats use a different way to land on their feet after a fall. Because their tails don't have the force as a gecko does, cats can't use them to right themselves. Instead they twist (扭曲) their bodies in mid-air.Some engineers are trying to build a robot that copies the geckos' climbing and havea tail fixed on the robot for balance.51. The underlined word “this” (in Paragraph 3) refers to “______”.A. gecko's hairB. gecko's tailC. gecko's bodyD. gecko's toe52. According to the experiment conducted by the researchers, what's the real use of the geckos' tails during their falli ng?A. Making the geckos rotating.B. Stopping the geckos falling.C. Stopping their falling upside-down.D. Keeping them falling slowly.53. How do cats avoid their injury during a fall?A. By keeping their balance.B. By landing their bodies upside-down.C. By using tails to right themselves.D. By twisting their bodies.54. Geckos' special skill gives engineers some new idea to ______.A. produce more robotsB. invent robots twisted on the groundC. invent robots that can keep balance with a tailD. let robot climb walls55. This passage is mainly written to tell us ______.A. about the living habits of geckosB. how geckos use their tails to land on their feetC. why geckos drop from trees or wallsD. how geckos control their climbing on the wallIV 写作第一节:短文改错Dear Editor,I'm writing to talk the construction project which is 56. __________________ gone on in our city.

I crouched (蹲) low there and immersed (沉浸于) myself in the false hope of finding a treasure (宝物) larger than the small 16 on the shore.A man jogged along the waves 17 my direction. When he came near me, he slowed to a walk. I didn't 18 him until he was almost standing over me. Too young to be 19 of strangers, I got on my feet and looked at him. It was then that I saw what was in his 20 , a beautiful bright cream-colored shell, the kind of thing that I was looking for. He smiled as I stared in 21 , and then, to my shock, he handed it to me. I held it 22 before me like a diamond, not 23 my eyes.“I think you will like it,” he said, and then continued his 24 down the beach.I do not 25 his voice, his clothes or even his face, 26 I do still have the shell, and the greatest lesson I've ever 27 . Now the shell sits on my bedside table, not as 28 and big as it was, but it is still there, a 29 reminder that there is 30 in the world.That man saved my belief in the kindness of people, and he saved my belief that one can find what means something in life. I see my shell every day, and I know that I can 31 bad days because there are good things in my life. In the end, all that we have is 32 we have done for others. The shell is 33 to me, as important as another man who returned to the plane to 34 me my lost jacket.I know that 35 a difference in someone's life, no matter how big or small, is what truly matters, and that it is worth all the treasure in the world.16.

Johnny cut out each quote and signed his name on every one of them. Then he put them in a paper bag he kept beside him at work. When he finished bagging someone's food, he put his “Thought for the Day” in the customer's bag.It touched me to think that this young man had made his job important by making good memories for all his customers.A month later the store manager called me. He said, “Barbara, you won't believe what happened today. When I was making my rounds, I found Johnny's line was three times longer than anyone else's! So I got more cashiers (收银员) out here and got more lanes (通道) open, trying to get people to change lanes. But no one would move. They want Johnny's ‘Thought for the Day'.”He continued, “I got a lump in the throat when one woman came up to me and said, ‘I used to shop at your store only once a week, but now I come in every time I go by for Johnny's ‘Thought for the Day'.”A few months later, the store manager called me again. “Barbara,” he said, “Johnny has changed our store. Now when there's a broken flower, there'll be an elderly woman or a little girl to repair it. All of our cashiers now have their own personal signature (签名). Our customers are talking about us ... in a good way, coming back, and bringing their friends.”36.

The underlined part “a lump in the throat” (in Paragraph 4) probably means “______”.A. sorryB. sadC. worriedD. movedB ★★It was in 1865 that two Frenchmen were looking into the future. Edouard de Laboulaye, who studied history, admired the United States greatly. Frederic Auguste Bartholdi was a famous artist. De Laboulaye was thinking about 1876, when the country he respected so much would celebrate its 100th birthday. What gift would be good enough for the people of France to give? Right away, Bartholdi thought of a giant statue. Bartholdi kept thinking about a statue for several years. Then, in 1871, he visited the United States and saw the perfect place for a huge statue. It was Bedloe's Island in New York.The project —the Statue of Liberty —got started almost immediately, and Bartholdi went home to France to begin work. However, the statue was not finished in time for the 100th birthday. The United States Congress approved (批准) the use of Bedloe's Island on February 22, 1877. During the 100th celebration in 1876, the arm of the statue that would hold the torch was shown in Philadelphia. In 1879 the huge head was put on display in France. For the face of the statue, Bartholdi used his mother as a model.The statue was finally completed in 1884. The work had been difficult enough, but then some really hard work began. The statue had to be taken apart and packed into boxes. It was not until May 1885 that the statue — in pieces — left France for its new home.The statue arrived in June. However, the Americans fell behind on their part of the project. They hadn't raised enough money for building the base of the statue. People wondered if the country really needed or wanted such a gift. Finally, though, the money was raised and the base was completed. The last piece of the statue was put in place on October 28, 1886.40. What's the right order of the following events?a. The arm of the statue that would hold the torch was shown in Philadelphia. . The United States Congress approved the use of Bedloe's Island.c. The huge head of the statue was put on display in France.d. Bartholdi visited the United States.A. dabcB. dbacC. bacdD. bdac41. When did the work on the statue begin?A. As soon as Bartholdi thought of it.B. After the United States Congress agreed to it.C. After Bartholdi saw Bedloe's Island.D. Not until the US had raised enough money.42. What happened after the Statue of Liberty was completed?A. It was put together for shipping.B. It was taken apart and packed for shipping.C. It was cleaned up for shipping.D. It was put in place on its base in France.43. How many years did it take for the Statue of Liberty to be put in place on its base after it was completed?A. 19.B. 15.C. 1.D. 2.C ★Last July, we asked what you dream of doing as an adult. Thanks for your great responses! We wish we had room to print them all. Here are just a few.Work and PlayMy dream job is being a construction worker, but only on an amusement park. James Martian, Age 9AlaskaRoyal Fashion DesignerMy dream job is to sew dresses for a queen. I could make whatever design I wanted. Her breakfast dress would be blue and long. Her lunch dress is purple and medium. Her dinner dress is red and short. They would all have sparkles (闪烁的光). I think they would be pretty. I like my dream job.Jenna Suchyta, Age 6WashingtonA “PoliceLawFireman”When I grow up, I want to be a policeman or a fireman or a lawyer because they help people. Maybe I will combine all three and become a “PoliceLawFireman”. I can work as a policeman in the morning. I can do law things in the afternoon. I can do fireman things in the evening. But for now, I want to be a boxer to build up my muscles.I will need my strength!Avi Samuels, Age 7IllinoisPlaying in the BandMy dream job is to become a professional guitarist and vocalist (歌手) for my future five-member rock band. I practice the acoustic (原声的) guitar, and I have written hundreds of songs! The reason I want to be a guitarist and vocalist is that I am very interested in music itself, so I want to create some of my own.Jake Francis, Age 12Ohio44. What do you think is the best title for the passage?A. Your future!B. Your dream job!C. Your idea!D. Your great chance!45. Who has done something for his / her future?A. James Martian.B. Avi Samuels.C. Jenna Suchyta.D. Jake Francis.46. Where can you find this passage?A. In a children's magazine.B. In a fashion magazine.C. In an entertainment newspaper.D. On a website.D ★★In the far, far future, bicycles and perhaps skates may be run by jet power, and a new thing to ride may be a small flying saucer (飞碟). Imagine a race between them!There may be telepathy helmets (心灵感应帽) that send thought waves from your brain to that of your friend miles away. You just think a thought and your friend knows it! You can have secrets with each other that nobody else can turn in on!What about the food of the future? Scientists think that much of it will be artificial — made in factories from such surprising things as coal, limestone, air, and water. The artificial food will be healthful because all the things that you need to live a long and healthy life will be put into it.The future hospitals will probably have “body banks” that can give you almost any new part you need to keep on living. People of the future may live to be a lot older than 100 years.What about highways of the future? Well, a very small child probably will be able to drive a car. Nobody will need to steer (驾驶). Electric signals will hold each car on the right road to get wherever the “driver” wants to go. And it probably will be impossible for cars to smash together. Controls that won't even have to be touched will make all speeding cars miss each other or will put on the brakes. Driving cars will be as safe as being at home.But maybe the most wonderful surprise in the future will be weather control. Cities may have giant plastic domes (圆顶罩) over them to keep out snow, rain, or storms. When you plan a picnic in a park, you won't have to worry about rain. It will rain only when the “weatherman” thinks it is necessary to fresh the air inside the city. All other days will be fair and warm.The future should be a wonderful time in which to live and the time we are living in now is also a wonderful future to the people who lived 100 years ago.47. The underlined word “that” (in Paragraph 2) refers to ______.A. telepathy helmetB. the brainC. thought waveD. the secret48. What can we learn from the passage?A. With telepathy helmets, we can share our thoughts without any word.B. The artificial food made from coal and limestone tastes the most delicious in the future.C. There will be “body banks” instead of hospitals in the future.D. Plastic domes themselves can automatically control the weather.49. With the future highways, ______.A. small children have to learn to driveB. car accidents still couldn't be avoidedC. we can be taken to the destination without steeringD. cars will be no longer equipped with brakes50. The author's attitude towards the future life is ______.A. optimisticB. pessimisticC. satisfiedD. doubtfulE ★★★Like cats, geckos (壁虎) always land on their feet. If they happen to fall from a wall or leaf they've been climbing, a quick move of the tail makes sure that they land feet first.Geckos are truly built for climbing: their special feet have hairy toes fixed to a wall or other vertical (垂直的) surface in just a few thousandths of a second. This lets geckos run 15 body lengths up a vertical surface in just one second. Researchers had thought this was all the equipment geckos needed to keep their feet firmly on the wall. But it turns out that's not the case. A gecko's long tail becomes necessary to stay wall-bound when its feet move on a slippery surface, and also if its feet can't keep hold.The researchers noticed that when geckos fell or jumped off a wall, they always landed stomach-side down regardless of whether they began falling upside-down (颠倒地). To find out how they righted themselves during their falling, the researchers conducted an experiment by placing the geckos upside-down on what looks like the underside of a leaf. When they lost their foothold and fell, the geckos moved their tails so that they were at a right angle with their bodies. They then rotated (使旋转) their tails to make their bodies rotate. As soon as they were right-side up, they stopped rotating. On average, it only took the geckos about 100 milliseconds to right themselves so that they would land on their feet.Cats use a different way to land on their feet after a fall. Because their tails don't have the force as a gecko does, cats can't use them to right themselves. Instead they twist (扭曲) their bodies in mid-air.Some engineers are trying to build a robot that copies the geckos' climbing and havea tail fixed on the robot for balance.51. The underlined word “this” (in Paragraph 3) refers to “______”.A. gecko's hairB. gecko's tailC. gecko's bodyD. gecko's toe52. According to the experiment conducted by the researchers, what's the real use of the geckos' tails during their falling?A. Making the geckos rotating.B. Stopping the geckos falling.C. Stopping their falling upside-down.D. Keeping them falling slowly.53. How do cats avoid their injury during a fall?A. By keeping their balance.B. By landing their bodies upside-down.C. By using tails to right themselves.D. By twisting their bodies.54. Geckos' special skill gives engineers some new idea to ______.A. produce more robotsB. invent robots twisted on the groundC. invent robots that can keep balance with a tailD. let robot climb walls55. This passage is mainly written to tell us ______.A. about the living habits of geckosB. how geckos use their tails to land on their feetC. why geckos drop from trees or wallsD. how geckos control their climbing on the wallIV 写作第一节:短文改错Dear Editor,I'm writing to talk the construction project which is 56. __________________ gone on in our city.

Life in the future李仕才一、阅读理解阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。

Plastic-Eating WormsHumans produce more than 300 million tons of plastic every year. Almost half of that winds up in landfills(垃圾填埋场), and up to 12 million tons pollute the oceans. So far there is no effective way to get rid of it, but a new study suggests an answer may lie in the stomachs of some hungry worms.Researchers in Spain and England recently found that the worms of the greater wax moth can break down polyethylene, which accounts for 40% of plastics. The team left 100 wax worms on a commercial polyethylene shopping bag for 12 hours, and the worms consumed and broke down about 92 milligrams, or almost 3% of it. To confirm that the worms’ chewing alone was not responsible for the polye thylene breakdown, the researchers made some worms into paste(糊状物) and applied it to plastic films. 14 hours later the films had lost 13% of their mass — apparently broken down by enzymes (酶) from the worms’ stomachs. Their findings were published in Current Biology in 2017.Federica Bertocchini, co-author of the study, says the worms’ ability to break down their everyday food — beeswax — also allows them to break down plastic. "Wax is a complex mixture, but the basic bond in polyethylene, the carbon-carbon bond, is there as well, "she explains, "The wax worm evolved a method or system to break this bond. "Jennifer DeBruyn, a microbiologist at the University of Tennessee, who was not involved in the study, says it is not surprising that such worms can break down polyethylene. But compared with previous studies, she finds the speed of breaking down in this one exciting. The next step, DeBruyn says, will be to identify the cause of the breakdown. Is it an enzyme produced by the worm itself or by its gut microbes(肠道微生物)?Bertocchini agrees and hopes her team’s findings might one day help employ the enzyme to break down plastics in landfills. But she expects using the chemical in some kind of industrial process — not simply "millions of worms thrown on top of the plastic. "1. What can we learn about the worms in the study?A. They take plastics as their everyday food.B. They are newly evolved creatures.C. They can consume plastics.D. They wind up in landfills.2. According to Jennifer DeBruyn, the next step of the study is to .A. identify other means of the breakdownB. find out the source of the enzymeC. confirm the research findingsD. increase the breakdown speed3. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that the chemical might .A. help to raise wormsB. help make plastic bagsC. be used to clean the oceansD. be produced in factories in future4. What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To explain a study method on worms.B. To introduce the diet of a special worm.C. To present a way to break down plastics.D. To propose new means to keep eco-balance.【文章大意】本文为说明文。

The plan:turn Mars into a blue world with streams and green fields,and then fill it with creatures from the earth.This idea may sound like something from a science fiction,but it is actually being taken seriously by many researchers.This suggested future for the “red planet” will be the main topic for the discussion at an international conference hosted by NASA this week.Leading researchers as well as science fiction writers will attend the event.It comes as NASA is preparing a multi­billion­dollar Mars research program.“Turning Mars into a little earth has been a topic in science fiction,”said Dr Michael Meyer,NASA's senior scientist for astrobiology (天体生物学).“Now with scientists exploring the reality,we can ask what the real possibilities of changing Mars are.”Most scientists agree that Mars could be turned into a little earth although much time would be needed to achieve this goal.But many experts are shocked by this idea.“We are destroying our own world at an unbelievable speed and now we are talking about ruining another planet,”said Paul Murdin,of the Institute of Astronomy,Cambridge,UK.Over the past months,scientists have become increasingly confident that they will find Martian life forms. Europe and America's robot explorers have found proof that water,mixed with soil,exists in large amounts on the planet.In addition,two different groups of scientists announced on March 28 that they had found signs of methane(甲烷) in the Martian atmosphere.The gas is a waste product of living creatures and could be produced by microbes(微生物) living in the red planet's soil.But scientists such as Dr Lisa Pratt,a biologist at Indiana University,say that these microbes will be put in danger by the little earth project.“Before we have even discovered if there is life on Mars,we are talking about carrying out projects that would destroy all these native life forms,all the strange microbes that we hope to find buried in the soil,”said Dr Pratt.This view is shared by Monica Grady,a planetary (行星的) scientist at the Natural History Museum,London.“We can't risk starting a global experiment that would wipe out the precious information we are looking for.” She said,“This is just wrong.”1.The passage is about________.A.a plan turning Mars into a little earthB.the necessity of changing MarsC.Mars supporting lifeD.finding water on Mars2.Which of the following is NOT the reason why some scientists are against the plan? A.The project would destroy all the native life forms on Mars.B.The project will cost too much money and work.C.We would ruin Mars.D.We are wiping out the precious information we are looking for.3.We can infer from the passage that________.A.water is a crucial factor for lifeB.the project will have little effect on the native life forms supposed to live on MarsC.Monica Grady is in favour of carrying out the little earth projectD.the idea turning Mars into a little earth is nothing but a science fiction 4.Which of the following supports the conclusion of microbes living in the Mars' soil?A.Scientists found liquid water on Mars.B.Scientists found signs of methane in the Martian atmosphere.C.Scientists found a lot of good soil on Mars.D.Scientists found some creatures living on Mars.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。

Unit 3Life in the future 单 元 检 测 Ⅰ.阅读理解 A When important events are happening around the world, most people turn to traditional media sources, such as CNN and BBC for the news. However, during the war in Iraq in 2003, many people followed the war from the point of view of an unknown Iraqi citizen who called himself "Salam Pax" (Salam Pax means peace). Salam Pax wrote a diary about everyday life in Baghdad during the war, and posted it on his website. Pax's online diary was a kind of website known as a "blog". Blogs are online diaries, usually kept by individuals, but sometimes by companies and other groups of people. They are the fastest growing types of website on the Internet. A blog differs from a traditional website in several ways. Most importantly, it is updated much more regularly. Many blogs are updated every day, and some are updated several times a day. Also, most blogs use special software or websites, which can help ordinary people easily set up and start writing their own blogs. There are many different kinds of blogs. The most popular type is an online diary of links where the blog writer surfs the Internet and then posts links to sites or news articles that they find interesting, with a few comments about each one. Other types are personal diaries, where the writer talks about their life and feelings. Sometimes these blogs can be very personal. There is another kind of blogging, called "moblogging", short for "mobile blogging". Mobloggers use mobile phones with cameras to take photos, which are posted instantly to the Internet. The use of mobile phones in this way made the headlines in Singapore when a high school student posted a movie he had taken of a teacher shouting at another student on the Internet. Many people were shocked by what the student did, and wanted phones with cameras to be banned from schools. Many people think that as blogs become common, news reporting will rely less on big media companies, and more on ordinary people posting news to the Internet. They think that then the news will be less like a lecture, and more like a conversation, where anyone can join in. 1. Which statement about Salam Pax was true? A. He worked for CNN. B.

B Last month, Justin Valdez, a college student, was shot in a subway station in San Francisco. The surveillance video(监控录像) showed that before Justin was killed, the killer pulled out his gun several times, and even wiped his nose with it. However, nobody noticed the killer. The surrounding passengers all focused on their cell phones. We may see the same scene everywhere in our life: in subway stations, restaurants, elevators and so on, people are watching their cell phones. From a family reunion to a date with a friend, people couldn’t stop checking their twitter and facebook on the cell phones and ignoring the persons in front completely, Phubbing(低头症) not only involves young people, but also the elderly and kids. “Phubbing” is a new term which comes from the words “phone” and “snub(冷落)”. It describes the habit of snubbing someone in favor of a cell phone. The word “phubbing” was included in the Australian National Dictionary in 2012. Obviously, the indifference冷漠) and rudeness of the information age are spreading globally. A Stop Phubbing campaign website has been set up. You can find the slogan of the website as follows: “stop twittering, stop posting photos…enjoy your food, enjoy the music and respect others.” Phubbing appears harmless. However, it does influence our life. Jimmy, an epicure(美食家), wrote in his blog: “I can no longer focus on what I am eating since I started twittering. My skill of food photography has improved very fast, while my interest in food drops as a result.” Let us put down our cell phones and re-enjoy the real taste of our food and the warmth of interpersonal communication. 5.

A.gun violence happens easily in the US B.phubbing may lead to terrible disasters C.the killer didn’t mean to kill him D.the killer had made a careful plan 6.

D.He will be very angry with you. 7. Jimmy’s words suggest that ____________. A.phubbing is actually harmless B.phubbing stops people enjoying their life C.phubbing affects people’s eating habits the most D.phubbing helps people improve their photographic skills 8. What is the text mainly about? A.How the word “phubbing” came into being.
