2020届一轮复习人教版必修五Unit1Great scientists单元学案 To you, the first Chinese woman to win a Nobel Prize in science, has made us all proud. Tu, born in 1930, discovered artemisinin (青蒿素), a drug that has reduced the death rates for patients suffering from malaria (疟疾). “Artemisinin is a gift for the world people from the traditional Chinese medicine”. It is of great importance for curing malaria and other infectious diseases and for protecting the health of the world people. Tu’s winning the prize shows that China has made rapid progress in scientific and technological field and marks a great contribution of traditional Chinese medicine to the cause of human health. Tu was born in Ningbo, Zhejiang province, China on 30 December, 1930. Tu studied at Beijing Medical University School of Pharmacy, and graduated in 1955. Later Tu was trained for two and a half years in traditional Chinese medicine. Tu worked at the Academy of Chinese Medicine in Beijing after graduation. She was promoted to a researcher in 1980 only after the Chinese economic reform. In 2011, Tu became the first scientist in China to win America’s Lasker Award (拉斯克奖) for her achievements. Currently she is the Chief Scientist in the Academy. Section_ⅠWarming Up & Reading — Prereading [原文呈现] JOHN SNOW① DEFEATS② “KING CHOLERA③” John Snow was a famous doctor in London — so expert④, indeed, that he attended⑤ Queen Victoria⑥ as her personal physician⑦. But he became inspired when he thought about helping ordinary people exposed to⑧ cholera. This was the deadly⑨ disease of its day⑩. Neither its cause nor its cure⑪ was understood. So many thousands of terrified people died every time⑫ there was an outbreak⑬. John Snow wanted to face the challenge⑭ and solve this problem. He knew that cholera would never be controlled until its cause was found. He became interested in two theories that⑮ possibly explained how cholera killed people. The first suggested that cholera multiplied⑯ in the air. A cloud of⑰ dangerous gas floated around until it found its victims⑱. The second suggested that people absorbed⑲ this disease into their bodies with their meals. From the stomach the disease quickly attacked the body and soon the affected⑳ person died.

So when another outbreak hit○22 London in 1854, he was ready to begin his enquiry○23. As○24 the disease spread quickly through poor neighbourhoods○25, he began to gather information. In two particular streets, the cholera outbreak was so severe○26 that○27 more than 500 people died in ten days. He was determined to find out○28 why. ○21suspect [sə'spekt] vt.认为;怀疑 ['sʌspekt] n.被怀疑者;嫌疑犯 ○22hit vt.(厄运、灾难等)突然袭击;侵袭 ○23enquiry [In'kwaIərI] n.询问 ○24as在句中引导时间状语,意为“当……时候”。 ○25neighbourhood ['neIbəhʊd] n.附近;邻近 ○26severe [sI'vIə] adj.严重的;剧烈的;严厉的 ○27so ... that ...“如此……以至于……” ○28be determined to do下定决心做 [第3段译文] 约翰•斯诺推测第二种理论是正确的, 但他需要证据。因此,在1854年伦敦再次暴发霍乱时,约翰•斯诺就准备开始他的调查。当霍乱在贫民区迅速蔓延的时候,他就开始收集资料。在两条特定的街上霍乱流行得很严重,以至于10天内就有500多人死亡。他决心要查明原因。 First he marked on○29 a map the exact places where all the dead people had lived○30. This gave him a valuable clue○31 about the cause of the disease. Many of the deaths○32 were near the water pump○33 in Broad Street○34 (especially numbers 16, 37, 38 and 40).He also noticed that some houses (such as 20 and 21 Broad Street and 8 and 9 Cambridge Street○35) had had no deaths. He had not foreseen○36 this, so he made further investigations○37. He discovered that these people worked in the pub at 7 Cambridge Street. They had been given free beer and so had not drunk the water from the pump. It seemed that○38 the water was to blame○39. Next, John Snow looked into○40 the source of the water for these two streets. He found that it came from the river polluted○41 by the dirty water from London. He immediately told the astonished people in Broad Street to remove the handle○42 from the pump so that it could not be used○43. Soon afterwards the disease slowed down○44. He had shown that cholera was spread by germs○45 and not in a cloud of gas. ○29mark ... on ...把……标在……上 ○30where引导定语从句,修饰先行词places。 ○31clue [kluː] n.线索;提示 ○32death n.死;死亡(人数);死亡案例 ○33pump [pʌmp] n.泵;抽水机 vt.(用泵)抽(水) ○34Broad Street牛津城的宽街,历史建筑群最密集的街道之一。 ○35Cambridge ['keImbrIdʒ] Street 剑桥大街 ○36foresee [fɔː'siː] vt.(foresaw, foreseen) 预见;预知 ○37investigation [InˌvestI'geIʃn] n.调查 ○38It seemed that ...好像…… ○39blame [bleIm] vt.责备;谴责 n.过失;责备 be to blame应受责备;该受责备 ○40look into调查;了解 ○41pollute [pə'luːt] vt.污染;弄脏 ○42handle ['hændl] n.柄;把手 vt.处理;操纵 ○43so that引导目的状语从句。 ○44slow down减缓;缓解 ○45germ [dʒɜːm] n.微生物;细菌 [第4~5段译文] 首先,他在一张地图上标明了所有死者住过的确切的地方。这提供了一条说明霍乱病因的很有价值的线索。许多死者是住在宽街的水泵附近(特别是16、37、38、40号)。约翰•斯诺还发现有些住宅(如宽街上的20号和21号以及剑桥大街上的8号和9号)却无人死亡。他以前没预见到这种情况,所以他要进行更进一步的调查。他发现,这些人都在剑桥大街7号的酒馆里工作。酒馆为他们免费提供啤酒喝,因此他们没有喝从宽街水泵里抽上来的水。看来水是罪魁祸首。 接下来,约翰•斯诺调查了这两条街的水源。他发现,水是从河里来的,而河水 被从伦敦排放的脏水污染了。他马上叫宽街上惊慌失措的百姓拆掉水泵的把手,这样,水泵就用不成了。不久,疫情就得到缓解。他证明了霍乱是由病菌而不是由气体传播的。 In another part of London, he found supporting○46 evidence from two other deaths that were linked to○47 the Broad Street outbreak. A woman, who had moved away from Broad Street○48, liked the water from the pump so much that she had it delivered○49 to her house every day. Both she and her daughter died of cholera after drinking the water. With this extra evidence John Snow was able to announce○50 with certainty○51 that polluted water carried the germs. To prevent this from happening○52 again, John Snow suggested that the source of all the water supplies be examined○53. The water companies were instructed○54 not to expose people to polluted water any more. Finally “King Cholera” was defeated. ○46supporting adj.有力的;(演员、角色)次要的;配角的 supporting evidence有力的证据 ○47link [lIŋk] vt.& n.连接;联系 link ... to ...将……和……联系或连接起来 ○48who引导非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词woman。 ○49had it delivered (让人运送它)中it代指上文的water,have为使役动词,过去分词delivered作宾语补足语。 ○50announce [ə'naʊns] vt.宣布;通告 ○51with certainty“肯定地”,作状语。 ○52prevent ...

He tries to “build a bridge” with things you know about, and then “bring you across that bridge to the strange place of modern physics”. Recently I had a chance to ask Greene about wormholes (a hole which some scientists think might exist, connecting parts of space and time that are not usually connected), time travel and other mysteries of the universe. I asked him a milliondollar question: What if I went through a wormhole and prevented my parents from meeting? “Most of us believe that the universe makes sense,” Greene said. Although there are several interesting theories about time travel, he added, the laws of physics would probably prevent something so illogical from taking place. The good news is that the time paradox (悖论) is open for future physicists to solve. When asked how physics could become more exciting for kids, Greene said that books by Stephen Weinberg, Leonard Susskind, and other physicists, “make it a great time for people who want to learn about big ideas but aren’t yet ready, perhaps, to learn math.” When I pointed out that some students still might find physics boring, Greene said that the key is to teach them about things that are strange. “The basic stuff is important,” Greene said. “But I think it’s really important to also describe the more modern ideas, things like black holes and the Big Bang. If kids have those ideas in mind, then at least some of them will be excited to learn all the details.” Greene has followed Albert Einstein’s lead in trying to solve the mysteries of the universe. Now he wants kids to do the same. As Greene said, physics is “not just a matter of solving problems in an exam”. It’s about experimenting, showing an interest in strange phenomena (现象) — and having fun! 语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。物理学家Brian Greene希望更多的孩子可以对现代物理学感兴趣。 1.A milliondollar question is probably very ________. A.direct B.difficult C.personal D.long 解析:选B 细节理解题。根据第二段Greene对这个问题的解释以及他说需要未来的物理学家去解决可知,作者提出的这个问题非常难。 2.The books by Weinberg and Susskind ________. A.are boring to read B.are mainly about math C.are popular science books D.are only popular among kids 解析:选C 推理判断题。根据第三段的“... books by ... make it a great time for people who want to learn about big ideas but aren’t yet ready, perhaps, to learn math”可知,Greene认为Weinberg和Susskind等物理学家写的书浅显易懂,适合普通大众阅读,故这些书属于科普读物。 3.According to Paragraph 4, which of the following does Greene agree with? A.Modern physics is a boring subject. B.Interest plays an important role in studying. C.It is not necessary to learn all about physics. D.It is easy to describe black holes and the Big Bang. 解析:选B 推理判断题。根据第四段可知,当作者指出一些学生觉得物理无聊时,Greene说重要的是向孩子们讲述一些稀奇古怪的事,并描述一些诸如黑洞和宇宙大爆炸的现代物理现象,如果孩子们知道了这些,他们就愿意了解更多详细的内容。因此他认为兴趣在学习过程中起着非常重要的作用。 4.In the last paragraph, Greene hopes that ________. A.kids can love science and physics B.kids can do well in physics exams C.kids can have fun with experiments D.kids can find more strange things in life 解析:选A 推理判断题。根据最后一段的“Greene has followed Albert Einstein’s lead in trying to solve the mysteries of the universe. Now he wants kids to do the same.”可知,Greene希望孩子们可以像他一样对科学和物理感兴趣,去探索宇宙的奥秘。 B Sir John Gurdon, a British scientist, who won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 2012, said he had predicted at the time of his frog experiments that the successful cloning of a mammal would happen within 50 years, and that “maybe the same answer is appropriate” for the step to human cloning. Parents who lose children in accidents may be able to clone “copies” to replace them then. Although any attempt to clone an entire human would raise complex moral issues, the biologist claimed people would soon overcome their concerns if the technique became medically useful. Cloning was regarded with extreme doubts when it was first developed but became widely accepted after the birth of Louise Brown, the first “testtube baby”. He said, “When my first frog experiments were done, an American reporter asked how long it would be before these things could be done in mammals or humans. I said, ’Well, it could be anytime between 10 years and 100 years — how about 50 years?’ It turned out that it wasn’t far off the mark as far as Dolly was concerned. Maybe the same answer is appropriate.” Sir John added that cloning a human being effectively means making an identical twin, and doctors would therefore simply be “copying what nature has already produced”. The average vote on allowing parents of deceased children, who are no longer fertile (能生育的), to create another by using the mother’s eggs and skin cells from the first child, thinking the technique was safe and effective, is 60 percent in favor. The reasons for “no” are usually that the new children would feel they are some sort of replacements for something. 语篇解读:诺贝尔生理学或医学奖得主、英国科学家约翰•格登爵士称,那些在事故中失去子女的父母将能在未来50年内借助克隆技术,让他们的子女得到“重生”。 5.Sir John predicted the human cloning would be a reality in ________ at most. A.about 100 years B.about 60 years C.about 50 years D.about 10 years 解析:选C 细节理解题。根据文章第一段可知,格登爵士表示,在未来50年内,那些在事故中失去孩子的父母将有可能通过克隆技术得到孩子的“复制品”。故选C项。 6.According to the text, which statement is NOT true? A.Louise Brown is the first “testtube baby”. B.Human cloning is still a controversial topic. C.Sir John is positive about the future of human cloning. D.Human cloning is creating something that didn’t exist before. 解析:选D 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“after the birth of Louise Brown, the first ’testtube baby’”可排除A项;文章尾段说明赞成者占6成,故排除B项;根据第二段中格登爵士的话可知,他对克隆人充满了希望,故排除C项;根据第二段的尾句可知,D项表述不正确。 7.The underlined word “identical” probably means “______”. A.same B.special C.new D.clear 解析:选A 词义猜测题。根据画线词后的“twin”和文中的“doctors would therefore simply be ’copying what nature has already produced’”可知,A项正确。 8.It can be inferred from the passage that ________. A.most people cast doubt on John’s experiments B.human cloning is and will be only a dream C.few children love to be cloned in the future D.human cloning may be realized someday 解析:选D 推理判断题。根据文章第二段的第一句可知,虽然克隆人类的尝试将引起复杂的道德问题,但是生物学家声称如果克隆技术变得有医学价值,人们很快就会消除他们的担心,因此可推断D项正确。 C Elizabeth Blackwell was born on February 3, 1821 in England. While she was growing up, two of her brothers and six of her sisters died. Elizabeth decided to become a doctor. Her father was a sugar businessman. He encouraged equality (平等) between boys and girls so, unlike most girls, Elizabeth had the same education as boys. One night, when Elizabeth was eleven, a fire destroyed her family’s business. The family became so poor that Mr. Blackwell decided to go to America. When the family reached New York, Mr. Blackwell tried to start a new business, but failed. In 1837, he died. After being refused several times by medical schools, Elizabeth was finally accepted by Geneva Medical College in New York, largely as a joke. People there, even women, thought she was indecent (下流的) and asked her to leave. But with great determination, Elizabeth graduated with high honors. After graduation, Elizabeth went to Paris to learn more about medicine. Elizabeth returned to America in 1851. There she helped other women become doctors and opened a medicine store. Then, she begged her rich friends to give money to build a hospital. Elizabeth’s dream came true in 1857 when the New York Infirmary For Women and Children opened its doors. It was the first true hospital for women, run by women doctors in the world. In 1868, the hospital opened a medical college for women. After that, Elizabeth received a letter from Europe asking her to come to her homeland and do for the women of Europe what she had done in America. She returned to England in 1869. There she served for forty years, which made her a hero. 语篇解读:本文介绍了美国首位取得医学博士学位的伟大女性Elizabeth Blackwell。 9.What made Elizabeth want to be a doctor? A.Her poor family. B.Her father’s advice. C.Her family members’ early death. D.The inequality between girls and boys. 解析:选C 细节理解题。根据文章第一段的内容可知,Elizabeth年幼时她的兄弟姐妹相继死亡,这让她产生了当医生的想法。 10.Why did Elizabeth’s family move to America? A.To sell more sugar. B.To look for chances to live. C.To open a hospital for women. D.To help Elizabeth study medicine. 解析:选B 细节理解题。根据文章第三段的内容可知,Elizabeth一家搬到美国是为了寻找生存的机会。 11.It can be inferred from Para.4 that in America ________. A.hardly any women studied medicine B.studying medicine was considered decent C.women were not allowed to receive education D.women and children suffered a lot from poor health 解析:选A 推理判断题。文章第四段讲到Elizabeth一开始遭到很多家医学院的拒绝,在她被纽约的一家医学院录取后,当地的人们甚至是妇女都认为她学医很下流,都斥责她让她离开,由此可知当时几乎没有女性学医,因为在人们看来女性学医是一件下流的事情。 12.Which is the right order of the following events about Elizabeth? a.She opened the first hospital for women. b.She opened a medicine store in America. c.Her family moved to New York. d.She graduated from a medical school. e.She returned to England to serve. f.Her family’s business was destroyed. g.She went to Paris to study medicine. A.cfdgbae B.fcdgbae C.fcgdbae D.fcgdbea 解析:选B 事件排序题。根据文章内容可知所列事件的正确顺序是:Elizabeth家的生意因火灾而破产→她全家搬到纽约谋生→她从医学院毕业→她到巴黎进修→她在美国开了一家药店→她开了第一家妇幼医院→她返回家乡做贡献。 Ⅱ.阅读七选五 How teens can stay fit Any type of regular, physical activity can improve your fitness and your health. __1__ Exercise should be a regular part of your day, like brushing your teeth, eating and sleeping.

She hurt himself seriously in a competition at the Goodwill Games, what was held in Long Island, New York in 1998. She had been in a wheelchair since then. As she is disable, Sang Lan believes that she will walk again one day. She keeps on exercising for all year round. Many people call her “a brave and confidence girl”. She is an international symbol of courage but is popular in the United States. The brave girl graduated Peking University in 2007. She has set the excellent example to us. 答案:第二句:himself→herself; what→which 第三句:had→has 第四句:As→While/Though/Although; disable→disabled 第五句:去掉for 第六句:confidence→confident 第七句:but→and 第八句:graduated后加from 第九句:the→an Section_Ⅲ Grammar—_过去分词作定语和表语 语法图解 探究发现 ①But he became inspired when he thought about helping ordinary people exposed to cholera. ②So many thousands of terrified people died every time there was an outbreak. ③He became interested in two theories that possibly explained how cholera killed people. ④From the stomach the disease quickly attacked the body and soon the affected person died. ⑤He was determined to find out why. ⑥He found that it came from the river polluted by the dirty water from London. ⑦He immediately told the astonished people in Broad Street to remove the handle from the pump so that it could not be used. ⑧With this extra evidence John Snow was able to announce with certainty that polluted water carried the germs. [我的发现] (1)例句①②④⑥⑦⑧中的过去分词(短语)作定语。 (2)例句②④⑦⑧中为单个的过去分词作定语,常常放于被修饰名词的前面;例句①⑥中过去分词短语作定语,常常放于被修饰名词的后面。 (3)例句③⑤中的过去分词在句中作表语。 一、过去分词作定语 1.过去分词作定语时的位置 (1)前置定语 一般情况下,单个过去分词作前置定语,即放在所修饰词之前。 The polluted water was to blame for the spread of cholera. 被污染的水造成了霍乱的传播。 The recovered animals will be released soon. 痊愈的动物会很快被释放。 [名师点津] ①有些过去分词表示特定含义时,单独作定语也放在所修饰的名词之后,如left(剩余的), given(所给的), concerned(有关的)等。 There are few tigers left. It is time for the departments concerned to take measures to protect them from dying out. 剩余的老虎不多了,是相关当局采取措施保护它们免遭灭绝的时候了。 ②如果被修饰的词是由every/some/any/no与thing/body/one所构成的复合代词或指示代词those等,单个分词放在被修饰词的后面。 Is there anything unsolved? 还有什么没解决的吗? (2)后置定语 过去分词短语作定语时往往作后置定语,即放在所修饰词之后,它的作用相当于一个定语从句。 Last Tuesday in a mountainous area, there were a total of 173 sheep killed almost immediately (=which were killed almost immediately) when lightning struck. 上周二在一个山区,当雷击发生时有173只羊即刻被雷电击死。 [即时演练1] (1)用所给词的适当形式填空 ①(2017•北京高考改编)Jim has retired, but he still remembers the happy time spent (spend) with his students. ②(2016•浙江高考改编)To return to the problem of water pollution, I’d like you to look at a study conducted (conduct) in Australia in 2012. ③(2015•全国卷Ⅱ语法填空)The adobe dwellings (土坯房) built (build) by the Pueblo Indians of the American Southwest are admired by even the most modern of architects and engineers.

(表示被动) 卡车与公共汽车皆烧煤气,煤气装在车顶上的大袋中。 The plan put forward at the meeting will be carried out soon. (表示被动和完成) 会上提出的计划将很快被执行。 (2)不及物动词的过去分词作定语,它不表示被动意义,只强调动作完成。 Our retired soccer coach went to watch us play a game last week. 上周我们已退休的足球教练去看我们打了一场比赛。 The risen sun is shining brightly in the morning. 早上已升起的太阳正明亮地闪耀。 [即时演练2] 选择填空 过去分词作定语有三种情况: A.只表示被动 B.只表示完成 C.既表示被动又表示完成 请判断下列句子中加黑部分属于哪种情况 ①America is a developed country. __B__ ②I found it hard to understand the English spoken by the native villagers. __A__ ③Is there anything planned for the weekend? __C__ 3.过去分词与现在分词作定语的区别 意义 形式 语态 时态 过去分词 被动 完成 现在分词 主动 进行 As we all know, China is a developing country. 众所周知,中国是一个发展中国家。 The visitor came from a developed country. 这位游客来自于一个发达国家。 [即时演练3] 用分词作定语补全句子 ①Even though it is still in summer, there are many_fallen_leaves on the ground. 尽管仍是夏天,但地上有很多的落叶。 ②Nowadays there are a lot of manmade satellites flying_in_space. 如今在太空中有许许多多人造卫星在飞行。 4.过去分词(done)、现在分词的被动语态(being done)与动词不定式的被动语态(to be done)作定语的区别 意义 形式 语态 时态 done 被动 完成 being done 被动 进行 to be done 被动 尚未发生 The building built last year is our classroom building. 去年建造的楼是我们的教学楼。 The building being built now is our classroom building. 现在正在建造的楼是我们的教学楼。 The building to be built next month is our classroom building. 下个月将要建造的楼是我们的教学楼。 [即时演练4] 用所给词的适当形式填空 ①The cars being_sold (sell) at the market now are made in Guangzhou. ②Tsinghua University, founded (found) in 1911, is home to a great number of outstanding figures. ③(2014•北京高考改编)There are still many problems to_be_solved (solve) before we are ready for a long stay on the Moon. 二、过去分词作表语 1.过去分词作表语的用法 过去分词可放在连系动词be, get, feel, remain, seem, look, become等之后作表语,表示主语所处的状态。 He looked worried after reading the letter. 看完信后,他显得很忧虑。 When we heard of it, we were deeply moved. 当我们听到这件事时,被深深地感动了。 [即时演练5] (1)用所给词的适当形式填空 ①(2016•浙江高考改编)—Are you sure you’re ready for the test? —No problem.

I had expected it to be better. 我对昨晚看的电影很失望。我原以为它能好些。 2.过去分词作表语时与被动语态的区别 过去分词作表语时,强调主语所处的状态,而动词的被动语态表示主语是动作的承受者,强调动作。 The cup is broken. 杯子破了。(系表结构) The cup was broken by Tom. 杯子是汤姆打破的。(被动语态) [即时演练6] 对比翻译 ①这本书写得很好。 The_book_is_well_written. ②这本书是他去年写的。 The_book_was_written_by_him_last_year. 3.感觉类及物动词的现在分词与过去分词作表语的区别 英语中有很多与感觉有关的及物动词,其现在分词表示主动意义,即“令人有某种感觉的”,多用来修饰物;其过去分词含有被动意义,即“人被引起某种感觉的”,多用来指人、人的声音或表情等。 常用的这类词有: exciting令人激动的excited 激动的;兴奋的 astonishing令人惊讶的astonished惊讶的 surprising令人吃惊的surprised感到吃惊的 discouraging令人沮丧的discouraged感到沮丧的 delighting令人高兴的delighted高兴的 disappointing令人失望的disappointed感到失望的 encouraging 令人鼓舞的encouraged受到鼓舞的 frightening令人害怕的frightened吓坏了的 interesting 令人感兴趣的interested感兴趣的 moving感人的moved受感动的 pleasing令人高兴的pleased满意的 shocking令人震惊的shocked感到震惊的 tiring令人疲劳的tired感到疲劳的 worrying令人担心的worried感到担心的 satisfying令人满意的satisfied感到满意的 puzzling令人迷惑的puzzled感到迷惑的 We were surprised at what he said at the meeting. 我们对他在会上讲的话很是惊讶。 His words were discouraging, which made many people discouraged. 他的话令人泄气,使得很多人灰心丧气。 [即时演练7] 用所给词的适当形式填空 ①The frightened look on her face suggested that she was frightened by the frightening scene.(frighten) ②The news was exciting and they were all excited at it.(excite) ③We all felt encouraged at the encouraging news.(encourage) ④The audience were all moved to tears by the moving film.(move) Ⅰ.单句语法填空 1.(2015•北京高考改编) The park was full of people, enjoying (enjoy) themselves in the sunshine. 2.(2014•浙江高考改编)Amie Salmon, disabled, is attended throughout her school days by a nurse appointed (appoint) to guard her. 3.(2014•重庆高考改编)The producer comes regularly to collect the cameras returned (return) to our shop for quality problems. 4.(2014•全国卷Ⅱ语法填空)There were many people waiting at the bus stop, and some of them looked very anxious and disappointed (disappoint). 5.(2014•福建高考改编)For those with family members far away, the personal computer and the phone are important in staying connected (connect). 6.(2013•湖南高考改编)You cannot accept an opinion offered (offer) to you unless it is based on facts. 7.If you get lost (lose) in a strange place, you’d better not move and wait for help there. 8.The puzzled expression on his face showed that the question was puzzling.(puzzle) 9.The student likes reading stories written (write) by the famous writer. 10.Many used (use) computers will be sold in this market.

Although he had tried to ignore them, all his mathematical calculations led to④ the same conclusion that the earth was not the centre of the solar system⑤. Only if you put the sun there did⑥ the movements⑦ of the other planets in the sky make sense⑧. Yet he could not tell anyone about his theory as the powerful Christian Church⑨ would have punished him for even suggesting such an idea. They believed God had made the world and for that reason⑩ the earth was special and must be the centre of the solar system. [读文清障] ①revolutionary [ˌrevə'luːʃənərI] adj.革命的;重大变革的 ②Nicolaus Copernicus ['nIkələs kəʊ'pɜːnIkəs] 尼古拉•哥白尼(波兰天文学家) ③confused adj.困惑的;烦恼的 ④lead to通向;导致 ⑤the solar system太阳系 ⑥only后接if引导的状语从句,主句使用部分倒装。 ⑦movement ['muːvmənt] n.移动;运动;动作 ⑧make sense讲得通;有意义 ⑨Christian Church基督教教会 ⑩reason n. [C,U] 原因;情理 哥白尼的革命性理论 [第1段译文] 尼古拉•哥白尼很恐惧,他的思绪很乱。虽然他尝试着不去理睬那些数字,然而,他的所有的数学计算都得出同样一个结论:地球不是太阳系的中心。只有当你把太阳放在中心位置上,天空中其他行星的运动才能说得清楚。然而他并不能向任何人讲述他的理论,因为即使他只暗示有这种想法,他都会受到强大的基督教教会势力的惩罚。他们认为上帝创造了世界,正是由于这个原因,地球才是特殊的,而且一定是太阳系的中心。 The problem arose⑪ because astronomers had noticed that some planets in the sky seemed to stop, move backward⑫ and then go forward in a loop⑬. Others appeared brighter at times⑭ and less bright at others⑮. This was very strange if⑯ the earth was the centre of the solar system and all planets went round⑰ it. Copernicus had thought long and hard⑱ about these problems and tried to find an answer. He had collected observations of the stars and used all his mathematical knowledge to explain them. But only his new theory could do⑲ that. So between 1510 and 1514 he worked on⑳ it, gradually improving○21 his theory until○22 he felt it was complete. ⑪arise vi. (arose, arisen)出现;发生;产生 ⑫backward ['bækwəd] adv.&adj.向后地(的);相反地(的);退步地(的), move backward向后移动 ⑬in a loop呈环状 ⑭at times有时;不时 ⑮at others=at (other) times在其他时间 ⑯if引导条件状语从句。 ⑰go round=go around=circle围绕……旋转 ⑱long and hard良久而又苦苦地 ⑲do指代上文的explain。 ⑳work on从事;研究 ○21现在分词短语improving ...作伴随状语。 ○22until he felt it was complete为时间状语从句。 [第2~3段译文] 问题的出现是因为天文学家已经注意到天空中的有些行星看似静止,有些向相反的方向运行,有些在作圆周运动。有时一些行星会显得比其他的行星更耀眼,而有些却显得比其他的暗。如果说地球是太阳系的中心并且所有行星都围绕着地球转的话,这些现象就非常奇怪了。,哥白尼努力地思考这些问题很长时间了,试图找到一个答案。他已经收集了那些星星的观察数据,并利用他全部的数学知识来解释它们。但只有他的新学说才能够做到这一点。因此,在1510年到1514年之间,他一直致力于对此进行研究,渐渐地改进他的学说直到他感觉已经完善为止。 In 1514 he showed it privately○23 to his friends. The changes he made to the old theory were revolutionary. He placed a fixed○24 sun at the centre of the solar system with the planets going round it and only the moon still going round the earth○25. He also suggested that the earth was spinning○26 as it went round the sun and this explained changes in the movement of the planets and in the brightness○27 of the stars. His friends were enthusiastic○28 and encouraged him to publish his ideas○29, but Copernicus was cautious○30. He did not want to be attacked by the Christian Church, so○31 he only published it as○32 he lay○33 dying in 1543. ○23privately ['praIvItlI] adv.私下地;秘密地 ○24fixed adj.固定的;不动的 ○25with the planets going round ... earth为with复合结构,作方式状语。 ○26spin [spIn] vi.&vt.

(lay, lain)躺 [第4段译文] 1514年,哥白尼私下里给他的朋友们看了他的新理论。他对旧理论所做的改动是革命性的。他把固定的太阳放在太阳系的中心,别的行星都围绕太阳转动,只有月亮仍然围绕地球转动。他还认为,地球在围绕太阳运转的同时也在自转,这就解释了行星运行和星体亮度上的变化。他的朋友都热情地鼓励他把他的想法公之于世,而哥白尼却小心谨慎。他不想遭到基督教教会的攻击,所以他直到1543年临终之前才公布了这一观点。 Certainly he was right to be careful. The Christian Church rejected○34 his theory, saying○35 it was against○36 God’s idea and people who supported it would be attacked. Yet Copernicus’ theory is now the basis○37 on which○38 all our ideas of the universe○39 are built. His theory replaced○40 the Christian idea of gravity, which○41 said things fell to earth because God created○42 the earth as the centre of the universe. Copernicus showed this was obviously wrong.Now people can see that there is a direct link between his theory and the work of Isaac Newton, Albert Einstein and Stephen Hawking. ○34reject [rI'dʒekt] vt.拒绝;不接受;抛弃 ○35现在分词短语saying it was against God's idea ...作方式状语。saying后跟两个宾语从句,其中第二个宾语从句中含有who引导的定语从句who supported it,修饰people。 ○36be against反对;违背 be for支持;赞同 ○37basis n. [C]基础 ○38on which all our ideas ...为定语从句,修饰the basis。 ○39universe ['juːnIvɜːs] n.宇宙;世界 ○40replace vt.取代 ○41which引导定语从句,修饰先行词gravity。 ○42create vt.创造;产生;制造 [第5段译文] 当然他小心是正确的。 基督教教会拒绝接受他的理论,说这种理论违背了上帝的旨意,而任何支持这种理论的人都将受到打击。然而现在哥白尼的理论却是我们的宇宙观建立的基础。他的理论还取代了基督教教会对地球引力的看法,他们 认为物体掉到地球上是因为上帝把地球设定为宇宙的中心。哥白尼证明这显然是错误的。今天人们可以看到他的理论和艾萨克•牛顿、阿尔伯特•爱因斯坦、斯蒂芬•霍金的研究工作有着直接联系。 Step 1 Read the text and answer the following questions. 1.How many scientists are mentioned in this passage?

She met Alfred Nobel, a rich millionaire, by answering his newspaper ad for a secretary. Although she only worked for him for a few weeks, she remained good friends with Alfred Nobel for the next 20 years. When she became involved in the peace movement in Europe, she promised to keep Nobel informed of its progress. When Alfred Nobel died in 1896, his will included the establishment of a peace prize, thanks to Bertha von Suttner’s influence. Bertha von Suttner was born in an aristocratic (贵族的) military family, but she spent the second half of her life working for peace. She wrote books, attended peace conferences, gave lectures and helped organize peace societies in Austria, Germany and Hungary, as well as the International Peace Bureau in Switzerland. Her novel, Lay Down Your Arms, was one of the most influential antiwar books of all time, and helped to make her a leader of the peace movement in Europe. Its end to war theme was both the ambition (抱负) and the most important goal in the life of this great woman. Bertha von Suttner worked so hard for peace because she believed that a terrible war would break out in Europe if nations didn’t work hard to establish lasting peace institutions. She made many major achievements for a more peaceful world, but two months after she died, World War I broke out. A hundred years after she won the Nobel Peace Prize, nations still seem to view war as a choice to work out their problems. But like Bertha von Suttner did, many today are working hard around the world to help strengthen peace institutions and spread the idea that it’s time to put an end to war. 语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了第一位女性诺贝尔和平奖获得者Bertha von Suttner。 1.Bertha von Suttner ________.

When he was a child, he was very clever and absorbed all the knowledge well that the teachers could teach him. After graduation, he devoted himself to agricultural study.Once he often suspected the traditional planting methods and was determined to increase rice harvest without increasing the area of fields.In the process of his study, he failed many times, but he never gave up.Apart from this, he often exposed himself to the rain and sunlight all day.At last he put forward many advanced theories and he announced to the world that he had succeeded in developing a new species that produced a 20 percent higher yields than common types of rice. He thought his life would be meaningful only if he could do something successfully.We can draw a conclusion that Yuan Longping is a great agricultural scientist.Owing to his great contribution to agriculture, he will always be remembered as “Father of Hybrid Rice”. 袁隆平是世界著名的中国农业专家,他于1930年出生在北京。 在孩童时代,袁隆平就十分聪明,很好地吸取了老师所授的所有知识。毕业之后,他投入到农业研究之中。他曾经经常质疑传统的种植方法,并下定决心在保持种植面积不增加的情况下提高粮食产量。在研究过程中,他失败了许多次,但是他从不放弃。除此之外,他还经常整日暴露在日晒雨淋中。最终,他提出了许多先进的理论,并向世界宣布他已经成功研发了一种比普通水稻品种增收20% 产量的新品种。 袁隆平认为只有他能成功地做成某事,他的人生才有意义。我们可以得出结论:袁隆平是一位伟大的农业科学家。由于他对农业的巨大贡献,他将永远被人民铭记为“杂交水稻之父”。 加餐练(一) 完形阅读组合练 Ⅰ.完形填空 In 1896, 17yearold Einstein went to Zurich to study physics.

In the 1990s, he moved to Canada. Peter started out washing dishes in a restaurant in downtown Ottawa. When the manager asked him to help out rolling meatballs in the kitchen, he soon learned how to do the job very well. But it was boring and Peter suggested that the manager should buy a meatballmaking machine. When the manager told him there was no such thing as a meatball maker, Peter was quick to notice that something was missing in the market. Putting his engineering knowledge to good use, he quickly came up with a simple method — the Magic Meatball Maker. He was sure there was a market for his machine, but it took him ten years of hard work to find it. He had to take risks, but he believed in his idea, and he managed to persuade other people to believe in him too. A local manufacturer (制造商) offered to produce the first 1,000 units in return for a share in the profits (收益), local shops offered to keep his meatball makers and a friend’s daughter helped him out with his first sales. But his lucky break came when he managed to persuade a TV shopping channel (频道) to help sell the Magic Meatball Maker. The channel broadcast a program about how the invention worked in the studio kitchen. Within minutes, they had sold more than 4,000 units. This was just the start. Peter had been right. He had said his meatball maker would bring him great wealth, and it has: more than two million dollars so far and it’s till selling to thousands of American housewives all across the USA. 语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要向我们介绍了肉丸机的发明者——Peter Huszcz。 1.Working in the restaurant, Peter ________. A.was chosen to be the manager B.found a chance to make money C.broke a meatballmaking machine D.was poor at making meatballs by hand 解析:选B 细节理解题。由第一段中的“When the manager told him ... something was missing in the market”可知,Peter看到了赚钱的机会,故选B项。 2.Which of the following helped Peter’s business take off? A.A local shop. B.A friend’s daughter. C.A local manufacturer. D.A TV shopping channel. 解析:选D 细节理解题。由第三段内容可知,Peter成功说服一家电视购物频道为其推销肉丸机,随后便开始大卖,故选D项。 3.What’s the right order to describe Peter’s life? A.Teacher→dish washer→inventor→businessman. B.Dish washer→teacher→inventor→businessman. C.Businessman→dish washer→inventor→teacher. D.Inventor→businessman→dish washer→teacher. 解析:选A 细节理解题。由第一段中的“Peter Huszcz once taught in an agricultural college.”可知,他曾当过老师;由“In the 1990s ...Peter started out washing dishes in a restaurant”可知,他之后做过洗碗工;由“Putting his engineering knowledge ... the Magic Meatball Maker”可知,随后他成了一位发明家;由第二、三、四段内容可知,他为了推销肉丸机付出了很大的辛苦,所以他还是一名商人。 4.What can we learn from the story? A.Better late than never. B.A friend in need is a friend indeed. C.Where there is a will, there is a way. D.In time of danger, one’s mind works fast. 解析:选C 推理判断题。由第二段中的“He was sure there was a market for his machine ... to believe in him too”和最后一段内容可知,Peter Huszcz坚信自己的肉丸机会受欢迎,为了推销其产品,他付出了艰辛的努力并最终取得成功,故选C项。 加餐练(二) 主观题规范增分练 Ⅰ.语法填空 Most volunteers spend a couple of hours each week in __1__ (volunteer) at one of the local community centers.

I work as a manager in a trade company and she’s working at a law firm. It’s all started to come together and we’re finally able to make a life for ourselves. W:Oh, that sounds wonderful. I have always known you two would make it. I hope I can keep in better contact with you. M:Definitely! Actually, we just moved into a new place. There’s a housewarming party this Saturday, if you are free? I know Jenny would love to see you again and it should be a good party. W:Sounds great! I am free this weekend and I’ll be there. (Text 10) Bill Gates, an American inventor, computer programmer and businessman, is reportedly worth nearly $80 billion, making him one of the wealthiest people in the country today. He founded and was head of Microsoft for years. Gates was born into a rich family in the state of Washington. His father was a lawyer; his mother was a banker. He is famous for being taken as the father of the modern computer. He studied at Harvard University but did not graduate because of his desire to develop new software. As a 13yearold student, Gates was introduced to computer programming. In 1975, Gates spoke to a company called Micro Instrumentation and Telemetry Systems (MITS). He convinced the owner of the company that he had written a program that would work well and make big money. The owner bought into Gates’ inventions, and the two men reached an agreement to develop software for the company. Then the Microsoft Company was born. Gates went on to develop the Windows operating system with then partner IBM. The two companies had differences though, and their partnership ended quickly. Gates worked as CEO until 2000. He remained active with the company for several years before leaving the company in 2008. In 2014, Bill Gates became the technical advisor of the firm. 第二部分 阅读理解 (满分40分,限时35分钟) 第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分) 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。 A Dear Editor, Please publish more articles about women scientists. Women scientists have made outstanding contributions to the world. These women make excellent role models. More young women may choose science as a profession if women read featured articles on female scientists like Marie Curie and Rachel Carson. Both women were encouraged to study science, and they both accomplished great things. With her father’s encouragement, Marie Curie made the world a better place through her scientific accomplishments. She studied the emission (放射) of rays from uranium (铀), a feature she called “radioactivity (放射性)”. Later, Curie and her husband, also a scientist, processed the mineral pitchblende before separating two radioactive elements (元素). With this discovery, Marie Curie earned her doctorate, and shortly thereafter, both she and her husband were awarded the 1903 Nobel Prize in physics. In 1911 Marie Curie won the Nobel Prize in chemistry for her work with the newly discovered elements; this work laid the foundation for Xrays and atomic physics. When Rachel Carson was young, her mother encouraged her to study nature. As an adult, she became known as the mother of the modern environmental movement. After studying marine biology and zoology in college, Carson worked as a government scientist and wrote several books on how all living things relate to each other. In 1951 her book The Sea Around Us made scientific knowledge about the sea accessible to the general reader and remained on the bestseller list for eightysix weeks. In 1962 Carson wrote Silent Spring, a book that helped lead to improvements in the use of chemical pesticides (农药). Humans have benefited greatly from the work of Marie Curie and Rachel Carson. What if these women had not been encouraged to become scientists? I believe that we need to encourage young women to enter the field of science. With that goal in mind, I sincerely hope your magazine can publish more articles about the contributions that women make to science. Sincerely, Annie Bastien, Grade 7 Capistrano Middle School 语篇解读:本文是一篇应用文。作者在信中建议杂志编辑多刊登一些关于女性科学家的文章,以鼓励更多女性从事科学。 21.According to the text, Marie Curie ________. A.achieved success with her father’s help B.separated two radioactive elements alone C.made contributions to the study of Xrays D.won the Nobel Prize twice with her husband 解析:选C 细节理解题。由第二段中的“this work laid the foundation for Xrays and atomic physics”可知,玛丽•居里的工作为研究X射线和原子物理奠定了基础。 22.What can we learn about Rachel Carson?

D.Her role as an environmentalist was rarely known by people. 解析:选B 细节理解题。由倒数第二段中的“her book The Sea Around Us made scientific knowledge about the sea ... a book that helped lead to improvements in the use of chemical pesticides(农药)”可知,雷切尔•卡逊所著的两本书对大众都产生了很大的影响。 23.What can we infer about the author? A.She aims to become a scientist. B.She likes reading and writing stories. C.She has a great interest in women scientists. D.She wants to publish articles in the magazine. 解析:选C 推理判断题。由最后一段中的“I believe that we need to encourage young women to enter the field of science”可知,作者对女性科学家的故事很感兴趣。 B Einstein was not only the outstanding scientist of the 20th century, but also a gifted and enthusiastic musician. He once said that had he not been a scientist, he would have been a musician. “Life without playing music is unthinkable for me,” he said. “I live my daydreams in music. I get most joy in life out of music.” Einstein’s mother, Pauline, was a talented pianist who brought music to life in the family home. Einstein began to learn the violin at the age of 6. However, he worked hard until discovering the joys of Mozart’s sonatas (奏鸣曲) at the age of 13. From that point on, although he had no further lessons, his violin remained his companion (伴侣). When Einstein moved to Aarau in Switzerland in 1895 to complete his schooling, he seemed to have devoted a good deal of his time to music. Just before his 17th birthday Einstein played at a music examination in the school. The examiner reported that “a student called Einstein shone in a deeply felt performance of one of the Beethoven sonatas”. In addition to his great skill in playing the violin, he also played the piano and, in particular, loved to improvise (即兴创作). In later life, Einstein’s reputation as a physicist often led to invitations to perform at benefit concerts, which he generally accepted happily. At one such event, a critic — not knowing Einstein’s real reputation as a physicist — wrote, “Einstein plays excellently. However, his worldwide reputation is undeserved. There are many violinists who are just as good.” Probably the summary of Einstein the violinist that comes nearest to the mark comes from his friend Janos Plesch, who wrote, “There are many musicians with much better skills, but none, I believe, who ever played with more sincerity or deeper feeling.” 语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了物理学家爱因斯坦对音乐的热爱与投入。 24.We learn from Paragraph 1 that Einstein ________. A.had a great love for music B.enjoyed daydreaming in music C.had stopped playing music for a while D.preferred to be a musician rather than a scientist 解析:选A 推理判断题。由第一段中的“a gifted and enthusiastic musician”和爱因斯坦所说的话可知,爱因斯坦非常热爱音乐。 25.After discovering the joys of Mozart’s sonatas, Einstein ________. A.began to create his own music B.spent a lot of time playing his violin C.started learning the piano by himself D.moved to Switzerland to learn the violin 解析:选B 细节理解题。由第二段中的“From that point on, although he had no further lessons, his violin remained his companion(伴侣).”可知,爱因斯坦在13岁时发现莫扎特奏鸣曲的乐趣,从那时开始,小提琴一直陪伴他左右。 26.What can we infer from Paragraph 3? A.Einstein did excellently in the examination. B.Einstein’s life in Aarau affected his musical taste. C.Einstein’s performance disappointed the examiner. D.Einstein practiced the Beethoven sonatas for his birthday. 解析:选A 推理判断题。由第三段中的“The examiner reported that’a student called Einstein shone in a deeply felt performance of one of the Beethoven sonatas’”可知,考官对爱因斯坦在考试中的表现赞赏有加。 27.By mentioning the critic’s words, the author probably wants to show ________. A.Einstein didn’t live up to his reputation B.Einstein was also an outstanding violinist C.Einstein played better than professional violinists D.Einstein wished there would be more benefit concerts 解析:选B 推理判断题。由倒数第二段中的“Einstein plays excellently. However, his worldwide reputation is undeserved. There are many violinists who are just as good.”可知,爱因斯坦是名出色的小提琴家。 C When a golfer plays on any golf course, he or she expects the course has a lot of hazards (障碍区) like sands, woods, and ponds of water. There is one special golf course, though, where along with these hazards that stand still, the player must expect to compete against hundreds of moving hazards. The golf course is on Christmas Island. The island is an area of Australia in the Indian Ocean, the third largest ocean in the world, lying between Africa and Australia. The moving hazards are bright red, fourandonehalfinch (11.4cm) crabs (螃蟹). Over 150 million of these brightly colored crabs live in the island’s rainforests. Every year, starting around November, the crabs migrate (迁移). They leave the rainforest and make their way to the ocean. They arrive at the coast after one to three weeks. But the males (雄性) return to the rainforest earlier than the females, who return about two weeks later after producing up to 100,000 eggs. On Christmas Island there is a golf course built on the crabs’ migration route. During the migration season, there are hundreds of red crabs moving on the course. The rules of the Christmas Island Golf Club say that all players must treat the crabs as they would treat any other hazard. They cannot move them, and they must play around them. If a walking crab happens to knock a ball while it is on the green, hitting it into a hole, the ball is considered “in”. Just_as_the_golfers_must_compete_against_a_moving_hazard,_so_must_the_crabs. People have built roads that run through the crabs’ migration route. Unluckily, up to two million crabs are killed by passing vehicles every year. People are trying to reduce the number by putting up “Crab Crossing” signs and closing certain roads during the migration season. 语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。在澳大利亚的圣诞岛上,一个高尔夫球场上有一些特殊的障碍区——红蟹。 28.What do we learn about the red crabs? A.They arrive in the rainforest in November. B.They spend most of their year in the ocean. C.The females spend two more weeks on the coast. D.The males start to migrate earlier than the females. 解析:选C 细节理解题。由第二段中的“the females, who return about two weeks later after producing up to 100,000 eggs”可知,雌性红蟹在海岸上多停留两周,故选C项。 29.The rules of the Christmas Island Golf Club ________. A.attract more golf players B.can help protect the crabs C.often make golfers confused D.cause the crabs much trouble 解析:选B 推理判断题。由第三段中的“They cannot move them, and they must play around them.”可知,该高尔夫球俱乐部的这些规则有助于保护红蟹,故选B项。 30.By saying “Just as the golfers ... so must the crabs”, the author means ________. A.the crabs must face danger on the road B.the crabs are quite perfect moving hazards C.golfers like competing against moving hazards D.golfers find it hard to play on Christmas Island 解析:选A 推理判断题。由最后一段中的“People have built roads that run through the crabs’ migration route. Unluckily, up to two million crabs are killed by passing vehicles every year”可知,螃蟹们的迁徙路线要经过马路,所以每年大约有两百万只螃蟹会被过往的车辆轧死,由此可见它们必须面对路上的危险,故选A项。 31.Which can be the best title for the text? A.Christmas Island B.Great migration C.Crab Crossing D.Crab hazards 解析:选D 标题归纳题。本文主要介绍了一个高尔夫球场上的一些特殊的障碍区——红蟹,故用D项作标题最恰当。 D Do you have imagination? Do you like to solve problems? Can you? If so, you could be the next great inventor. “But I’m just a kid,” you might say! Don’t worry about a little thing like age. For example, one famous inventor — Benjamin Franklin — got his start when he was only 12. At that young age, he created paddles for his hands to help him swim faster. Finally his creation led to what we know is called flippers! So you don’t have to be an adult to be an inventor. One thing you do need, though, is something that kids have plenty of: curiosity and imagination. Kids are known for looking at things in new and unique ways. So what should you do if you have what is a great idea for an invention? Talk to a friend or family member about it. Get input from others about your idea. Then ask them to help you create a working model — called a prototype (原型) — of your idea. Once you have a prototype, you can test it. Sometimes your idea turns out to be not as great as you thought. At other times, though, you realize it is a good idea and your prototype can help you figure out how to make it even better. If your idea is really a good one, an adult can help you contact companies that might be interested in it. You will also want an adult’s help to get a patent (专利权) for your idea, so that it is protected and can’t be stolen by someone else. If you need some inspiration, consider these kids and their inventions: Jeanie Low invented the Kiddie Stool when she was just 11. It’s a folding stool that fits under the kitchen sink. Kids can unfold it and use it to reach the sink all by themselves. At the age of 15, Louis Braille invented the system named after him that allows the blind to read. Chelsea Lanmon received a patent when she was just 8 for the “pocket diaper”, a new type of diaper that includes a pocket for holding baby wipes and powder. 语篇解读:本文是一篇议论文。孩子能成为发明家吗?答案是肯定的。作者列举了Franklin, Braille, Lanmon等人的成功事例。 32.By saying “But I’m just a kid”, you probably mean you ________. A.are too young to achieve anything B.can do anything though you are young C.are old enough to become an inventor D.have to learn knowledge from other people 解析:选A 推理判断题。“just a kid”意为“只是个孩子”,表明年龄小而做不了什么大事,与A项中的too ... to ... (太……而不能……)同义,故A项正确。 33.Which of the following is the right order of an invention? A.a patent—a prototype—a good idea—an invention B.an invention—a good idea—a patent—a prototype C.a good idea—a prototype—an invention—a patent D.a prototype—a patent—a good idea—an invention 解析:选C 细节排序题。文章第三段中“So what should you do if you have what is a great idea for an invention?”和“Then ask them to help you create a working model — called a prototype (原型) — of your idea.”表明发明顺序为a good idea—a prototype。再根据第五段的“You will also want an adult’s help to get a patent (专利权) ...”可知,申请专利是发明的最后步骤。故C项正确。 34.Who invented something that helps the blind to read? A.Jeanie Low. B.Benjamin Franklin. C.Chelsea Lanmon. D.Louis Braille. 解析:选D 细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段“... Louis Braille invented the system named after him that allows the blind to read.”可知答案。 35.Which of the following can be the best title for this passage? A.Kids have curiosity and imagination B.There are some world famous inventors C.Kids are exactly like adults in a way D.It is possible for kids to be inventors 解析:选D 标题归纳题。综观全文,文章论述的是孩子一样可以成为发明家这一主题。本文所举的例子Benjamin Franklin (12岁), Jeanie Low (11岁), Louis Braille (15岁)及Chelsea Lanmon (8岁)也都说明了孩子成为发明家的可能性。故选择D项。 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。选项中有两项为多余选项。 There is an old Spanish proverb which states, “Tomorrow is often the busiest day of the week.” __36__ Too many.

Yours sincerely, Li Hua 参考范文: Dear Dr. Smith, I am Li Hua, a student from Class 6, Grade 3. I’m writing to express my opinion on the new school rule made last week. According to the rule, all students are forbidden to eat out during school days. It says that the food we buy outside the campus isn’t healthy and our safety is not guaranteed. However, we find the food sold in the street more delicious and cheaper. Besides, the variety of meals the school canteen supplies is too limited. So I hope we are allowed to buy food outside or some measures will be taken to improve the food in the school canteen. Thank you for reading my letter. Please take my opinion into consideration. Yours sincerely, Li Hua查看更多
