‎2020届一轮复习人教版必修一Unit5Nelson Mandela-a modern hero单元作业 一) Warming Up & Reading — Prereading Ⅰ.阅读理解 A Mandela became president in South Africa's historic 1994 election (选举).After that, he often looked to Walter Sisulu, one of his closest friends for more than sixty years, for guidance. Sisulu was in many ways as important as Mandela in the fight against South Africa's racist system (种族主义制度).‎ In 1944, the two, along with the late Oliver Tambo, founded the ANC Youth League. The ANCYL favored a more militant (激进的) way to the movement against the government. They soon took over the ANC, with Sisulu serving as its secretary general from 1949 to 1954. In 1963, he, Mandela and other top ANC leaders were sentenced to life in prison.‎ Sisulu was always calm and patient after he was released. The day after his release on Oct.15,1989,Sisulu explained to reporters how “it was not possible to lose hope because the spirit of the people outside was too great.” Mandela's release came four months later.‎ Sisulu was born in 1912. Unlike Mandela, whose father was a chief (酋长),Sisulu was the child of a black maid (女仆) and a white worker. His father left the family when Sisulu was small.‎ He was educated for a while at a local school, but left when he was 15 to support his family. He took whatever jobs he could, and continued to learn on his own. In 1940, he joined the ANC and got Mandela to join it a year later.‎ ‎“Our paths first met in 1941. During the past 62 years, our lives have been closely connected. We shared the joy of living, and the pain. We walked side by side through the valley of death. Together we enjoyed the taste of freedom,” Mandela said after Sisulu died on May 5th, 2003.“A part of me is gone.”‎ 语篇解读:本文是记叙文。文章介绍了南非著名反种族隔离斗士——沃尔特·西苏鲁,他也是曼德拉的好战友。‎ ‎1.In what way was Sisulu similar to Mandela?‎ A.He also supported peaceful means.‎ B.He also ran for the 1994 election.‎ C.He was also a founder of the ANC.‎ D.He was also a great freedom fighter.‎ 解析:选D 推理判断题。由前两段可知,西苏鲁和曼德拉一样,都是伟大的南非自由战士。‎ ‎2.What made Sisulu feel hopeful about the future?‎ A.Mandela's release.‎ B.The people's power.‎ C.The prisoners' high spirits.‎ D.Reporters' encouragement.‎ 解析:选B 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“it was not possible to lose hope because the spirit of the people outside was too great”可知,西苏鲁对未来充满希望是因为他受到了人民力量的鼓舞。‎ ‎3.What did Mandela tell us about in the last paragraph?‎ A.His lifelong friendship with Sisulu.‎ B.His important influence on Sisulu.‎ C.His hard efforts to win freedom.‎ D.His opinions on Sisulu's life.‎ 解析:选A 推理判断题。由最后一段中曼德拉的话可知,他深情地回顾了他与西苏鲁六十多年的革命友谊。‎ ‎4.What is the purpose of the text?‎ A.To compare Sisulu with Mandela.‎ B.To show the greatness of Mandela.‎ C.To explain the history of the ANCYL.‎ D.To describe Sisulu's life and achievements.‎ 解析:选D 写作目的题。通读全文可知,本文描写了南非著名反种族隔离斗士西苏鲁的生平和成就。‎ B One of the most unusual flowering plants in the world, the Snowdonia ‎ hawkweed (斯诺登水兰), grows only in Snowdonia National Park in northern Wales. The area is rocky and mountainous, and the air is cool and wet. The Snowdonia hawkweed prefers this area. In fact, it grows nowhere else in the world. It is even picky about where it grows in the park.‎ The Snowdonia hawkweed is about two inches tall with bright yellow flowers. It may not be the most beautiful plant in the world, but it is a favorite snack of sheep.‎ In 1953, the Snowdonia hawkweed disappeared. People feared that the plant was gone forever. They believed that the sheep there had eaten the last few plants. So, the people who ran the park took the sheep away from the area, hoping that the hawkweed might return. In 2002, almost 50 years after it was thought to be extinct,_a group of plant scientists found the yellow flowers in the park — exactly where it had last been seen, and where it had been searched for without success. The hawkweed had returned!‎ To try to prevent the plant from disappearing again, scientists collected seeds (种子) from the plant. Since 2002, the unusual plant has continued to appear in the park.‎ 语篇解读:本文是说明文。文章主要介绍了一种罕见的植物——斯诺登水兰。‎ ‎5.The Snowdonia hawkweed ________.‎ A.is the most beautiful plant in the world B.grows everywhere in northern Wales C.produces the most unusual flowers D.is an extremely unusual plant 解析:选D 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“One of the most unusual flowering plants in the world”, “it grows nowhere else in the world”以及“It is even picky about where it grows in the park.”不难看出,斯诺登水兰对生长环境很挑剔,只在斯诺登国家公园的某个地方生长,是一种异常罕见的植物。‎ ‎6.What happened to the Snowdonia hawkweed in 1953 ________.‎ A.worried a lot of people B.proved nature is powerful C.made the park less attractive D.caused a rise in the number of sheep 解析:选A 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“People feared that the plant was ‎ gone forever.”和“the people who ran the park took the sheep away from the area, hoping that the hawkweed might return”可知,当斯诺登水兰在1953年凭空消失后,人们对此很担心。‎ ‎7.The underlined word “extinct” in Paragraph 3 probably means “________”.‎ A.growing       B.disappearing C.unusual D.dangerous 解析:选B 词义猜测题。根据第三段中的“the Snowdonia hawkweed disappeared. People feared that the plant was gone forever.”可知,人们曾一度以为斯诺登水兰灭绝了。故画线词意为“消失了的;灭绝的”。‎ C Robert Frost was born in San Francisco in 1874, but he spent most of his life moving from place to place, often returning to New England, the place of his later childhood and early adult years.‎ Robert was the first child born in his family. Frost's early childhood was filled with anxiety, since his father drank and gambled too much. Frost's father died when Frost was 11, leaving his mother with no choice but to move back home with her parents in Lawrence, Massachusetts.‎ Frost's first published poem appeared in the Lawrence High School Bulletin in 1890. While Frost could attend Harvard College, he attended Dartmouth College instead, because his grandparents thought he would find success there. Frost dropped out of Dartmouth before his first year was over and began teaching primary school.‎ In 1894, Frost received his first payment for the poem My Butterfly: an Elegy. He worked as a reporter while still teaching primary school. Frost married his wife, Elinor White, in 1895. Frost and Elinor had their first child in 1896, a son they named Elliot.‎ In 1897 Frost continued his education at Harvard College, but by 1899 he had dropped out again. In 1901, Frost's grandfather died, leaving him a farm in New Hampshire, which made it possible for Frost to support his growing family. Robert and Elinor had more children, and Frost wrote more and did several different parttime jobs to make ends meet. He taught English literature, trained other teachers in teaching methods, and taught education and psychology classes.‎ In 1913, his first book A Boy's Will was published. The success of this book ‎ brought him in contact with many important literary people, including William Yeats. Following this success, Frost published many literary works, including short stories, poems and a play. He made a living by lecturing, writing and sometimes teaching.‎ Frost actively contributed to the literature until his death in 1963. Frost was highly regarded, and he was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for his poetry four times in his life.‎ 语篇解读:本文主要介绍美国大诗人罗伯特·弗罗斯特的生平故事。‎ ‎8.Robert Frost attended Dartmouth College instead of Harvard College because ________.‎ A.he didn't show any interest in Harvard College B.his grandparents didn't want him to leave the home C.his family hoped that he could save money for them D.his grandparents thought he could achieve more in Dartmouth College 解析:选D 细节理解题。从第三段的“because his grandparents thought he would find success there”可知,弗罗斯特去达特茅斯学院上学而没去哈佛大学主要是受到他爷爷奶奶的影响,他们认为他会在达特茅斯学院取得成功。‎ ‎9.After his grandfather's death, Robert Frost ________.‎ A.lost his family's support for his writing B.couldn't spend most of his time in writing poems C.could run the farm to support his growing family D.didn't want to do parttime jobs anymore 解析:选C 细节理解题。从第五段的“Frost's grandfather died ... which made it possible for Frost to support his growing family.”可知,爷爷的去世留下了一个农场给弗罗斯特,因此他能够维持整个家庭的生活。‎ ‎10.As his first book was published, Robert Frost ________.‎ A.began to get interested in serious literature B.had to make a living by teaching primary school C.found it difficult to stop writing and teaching D.had chances to meet great figures in literature 解析:选D 细节理解题。从倒数第二段的“The success of this book brought ‎ him in contact with many important literary people, including William Yeats.”可知,随着第一部诗集的问世,弗罗斯特便开始步入文艺圈,接触那些名人了。‎ ‎11.What is the purpose of this passage?‎ A.To report Robert Frost's influence on poetry.‎ B.To introduce Robert Frost's life story.‎ C.To find out what made Robert Frost a successful writer.‎ D.To review the influence of Robert Frost's terrible childhood.‎ 解析:选B 写作意图题。从文章的内容可知,本文主要介绍美国大诗人罗伯特·弗罗斯特的生平故事。‎ Ⅱ.阅读七选五 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。‎ Being in an unfamiliar school can be frightening.

This was about the number of words a sixyearold should be able to read.‎ The story is about a cat who tries to entertain two children on a rainy day while their mother is away from home. The cat is not like normal cats. It talks. The book was an immediate success. It was an interesting story and was easy to read. Children loved it. Their parents loved it, too.

When he was eight years old, he started working on a sugar farm. Clemente worked many hours. But he always found time to play baseball. Even when there were no games, Clemente would throw whatever he could find — a bottle top or an old shoe.‎ Years of practice made Clemente a skilled player. When he was 18 years old, he became a professional (职业的) baseball player. In 1954, the Pittsburgh Pirates asked Clemente to play for their team. However, playing for the Pirates was not easy at first. Many of the other players treated (对待) Clemente poorly. Most of the players were white, and Clemente was a black. But his attitude and skill helped him become the leader of the team.‎ In 1971, Clemente's team competed in the final game of the Baseball World Series. By this time, Clemente was one of the oldest players on the team. However, he was also still one of the best. Clemente had been hurt all season. But he believed in his skill and in his team. He promised his team that they would win. Clemente kept his promise and the Pirates won the World Series.‎ After the World Series, Clemente became famous for more than just his baseball skills.‎ On December 23, 1972 there was a big earthquake in Nicaragua. Clemente decided to go to Nicaragua himself and give supplies to people there. But Clemente never had a chance to do so. On December 31,1972, his airplane crashed (坠毁) over the ocean. Clemente was only 38 years old.‎ In his life, Roberto Clemente cared about many things. He loved baseball. He loved his country. And he loved helping other people. Clemente gave his life serving others. He died as a hero. One of his friends said, “If he had died as a baseball player, only people who love sports would remember him. But he died helping other people. And now people will remember him as someone who used his life to help others.”‎ 语篇解读:本文是记叙文。文章主要介绍了来自波多黎各的著名棒球运动员罗伯托•克莱门特,他不仅球艺精湛还救困扶危。‎ ‎1.Clemente was badly treated in the Pirates because of ________.‎ A.his age        B.his race C.his poor skills D.his bad attitude 解析:选B 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Most of the players were white, and Clemente was a black.”可以推测,由于Clemente是黑人,所以一开始在匹兹堡海盗队时受到不好的对待。‎ ‎2.During the final game of the World Series, Clemente ________.‎ A.was in good health B.let his team members down C.was the oldest player on his team D.was sure of winning the competition 解析:选D 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“But he believed in his skill and in his team. He promised his team that they would win.”可知,在世界大赛的决赛时期,Clemente对自己的球队信心满满。‎ ‎3.While trying to help people in Nicaragua, Clemente ________.‎ A.lost his life B.died in an earthquake C.gave up playing baseball D.gave supplies directly to them 解析:选A 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段的描述可知,Clemente想要亲自将赈灾物资送到灾区,然而却在途中意外坠机身亡,故选A项。‎ ‎4.The author writes the text to tell us that ________.‎ A.Clemente loved baseball more than his life B.Clemente was much more than a great baseball player C.the honor of Clemente was not easily won D.the story of Clemente was not just about a promise 解析:选B 写作意图题。作者在文章最后一段描述Clemente不仅热爱棒球还热心助人,最后因助人而献身,并引用Clemente朋友的话:“如果Clemente仅仅是一名棒球运动员,那么只有热爱运动的人会记得他,但Clemente舍己为人,全世界的人都将他铭记在心”。因此,作者旨在告诉我们:Clemente不仅仅是一名出色的棒球运动员。‎ 加餐练(二) 主观题规范增分练 Ⅰ.语法填空 阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。‎ My daughter's birthday is May 29.

B.Frank.‎ C.Gemma. D.Raoul.‎ 解析:选B 细节理解题。根据Frank中的“I enjoy playing around with word puzzles.”可知应选B项。‎ ‎23.What problem does Raoul face?‎ A.His strict boss.‎ B.He is careless.‎ C.His terrible cooking.‎ D.He fails to get enough sleep.‎ 解析:选A 细节理解题。根据Raoul中的“The biggest problem is my boss ...if I forget to wash up one plate.”可知,Raoul遇到的问题是他的老板非常苛刻。‎ B Neither rain nor snow nor the dark of night can separate Tennessee postal carrier “Mailman Mike” from his 4andahalfyearold friend Carter Lawson — or keep them from their appointments.‎ For the past nine months, the two have teamed up every day in the preschooler's Knoxville neighborhood for a few minutes of delivering mail together and chatting with fellow neighbors.Lawson wants to be a mail carrier when he grows up, and in an inspiring story, his mom told us how mailman Mike Crenshaw has been a role model to her son.“Anyone could just be like‘Go away, kid’, but Mike has really gone out of his way to talk with Carter,” said Cassie Lawson of the United States Postal Service carrier.Little Carter even got his own uniform to match Mike's.“It's been really cute.I just couldn't believe he got a full mailman's costume,” the postal service employee said.‎ ‎“Every letter carrier has stops he looks forward to and this is the one I look forward to every day,” said Mike.“He's the end of my day, and the best part of my day.Not because it's the end, but because he's such a cute little guy.”‎ The man and the little boy's connection isn't a surprise to Fredric Rolando,‎ ‎ president of the National Association of Letter Carriers.“Kids respond to mailmen because letter carriers are a friendly, uniformed part of the neighborhood who bring something to their house every day, and are someone they come to recognize and trust,” Rolando said.“It's the same for the elderly, but in addition, letter carriers may be the only person they communicate with all day.”‎ 语篇解读:本文为记叙文。立志长大成为邮递员的男孩和邮递员成为了好朋友。孩子的梦想值得尊重,而邮递员的工作也给人们传递了友谊和信任。‎ ‎24.Mike Crenshaw meets Carter Lawson every day to________.‎ A.play with the boy B.get mail from the boy ‎ C.listen to the boy's stories D.send mail together with the boy 解析:选D 细节理解题。由第二段“...for a few minutes of delivering mail together and chatting with fellow neighbor.”可知,他们两个人每天会面是为了一起送邮件。‎ ‎25.Why does Mike Crenshaw like the last stop of his day?‎ A.It is where he lives.‎ B.It is where he is paid.‎ C.He wants to be with Carter.‎ D.He can finish his work by then.‎ 解析:选C 细节理解题。由第三段“Not because it's the end, but because he's such a cute little guy.”可知,他期待最后一站是因为他想和那个可爱的孩子在一起。‎ ‎26.What can we infer from Fredric Rolando's words?‎ A.Mailmen are usually not well respected.‎ B.What letter carriers do is not just sending letters.‎ C.The elderly don't like communicating with others.‎ D.People should learn to recognize and trust each other.‎ 解析:选B 推理判断题。由最后一段可知,邮递员不只送信,还与人们交流,获得小孩的信任,甚至有可能是老人们唯一的交流对象。由此可知,他们送的不仅仅是信。‎ ‎27.What is the best title for the text?‎ A.A letter carrier is praised for helping a kid B.A mailman makes a little boy's dream come true ‎ C.Every letter carrier has stops he looks forward to ‎ D.The importance of letter carriers cannot be ignored 解析:选B 标题归纳题。本文主要介绍了邮递员帮助小男孩实现梦想的故事。‎ C If you're planning on travelling, there are a few simple rules about how to make life easier both before and after your journey.‎ First of all, always check and doublecheck departure (起程) time.It is amazing how few people really do this carefully.Once I arrived at the airport a few minutes after ten.My secretary had got the ticket for me and I thought she had said that the plane left at 10:50.When I arrived at the airport, the clerk at the departure desk told me that my flight was closed.Therefore, I had to wait three hours for the next one and missed an important meeting.‎ The second rule is to remember that even in this age of credit cards, it is still important to have at least a little of the local currency (货币) with you when you arrive in a country.This can be necessary if you are flying to a place few tourists normally visit.A few years ago I was sent to Tulsa, Oklahoma.I flew there from London via (经由) Dallas, with very little time to change planes in between.I arrived there at midnight and the bank at the airport was closed.The only way to get to my hotel was by taxi and because I had no dollars, I offered to pay in pounds instead.‎ ‎“Listen! I only take real money!” the driver said angrily.Luckily I was able to borrow a few dollars from a clerk at the hotel, but it was embarrassing (令人难堪的).‎ The third and last rule is to find out as much as you can about the weather at your destination before you leave.I feel sorry for some of my workmates who travel in heavy suit and raincoats in May, when it is still fairly cool in London or Manchester, to places like Athens, Rome or Madrid, where it is already beginning to get quite warm during the day.‎ 语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章就旅行时需要注意的问题提出了自己的建议,如确定起程时间、携带一定数量的当地货币以及确定目的地的气候等。‎ ‎28.According to the passage, it's obvious that______.‎ A.the author learns some rules of travelling from his own experiences B.the author doesn't plan his trips or journeys carefully C.Englishmen like to wear heavy suits wherever they travel D.the American taxi driver never travels to England 解析:选A 细节理解题。通读全文可以看出,作者以自己及其同事的亲身经历向读者提出了三条旅行注意事项。故A项正确。‎ ‎29.According to the passage, the driver was angry because______.‎ A.the author gave him false money B.the author did not give him the local currency C.the author did not give him money D.the author had no enough change 解析:选B 细节理解题。作者午夜抵达,银行已经关门,作者没办法把英镑兑换成美元,用英镑付打的费,而当地的流通货币是美元,司机生气原因自然就在于此了,所以选B。‎ ‎30.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?‎ A.The author tells people to choose warm places as their travel destinations.‎ B.You don't have to take credit cards when travelling.‎ C.You should know more about the weather of the place you'll visit.‎ D.You should take enough change when you travel to other countries.‎ 解析:选C 推理判断题。由最后一段可知C项正确。‎ ‎31.What is the main idea of the passage?‎ A.A few simple rules about how to make life easier both before and after your journey.‎ B.Always check and doublecheck departure time.‎ C.It is important to have the local currency with you when you arrive in a country.‎ D.To find out as much as you can about the weather at your destination before you leave.‎ 解析:选A 主旨大意题。本文第一段已经明确主题:“...there are a few simple rules about how to make life easier both before and after your journey.”,接下来的段落做了详细说明,故选A。‎ D The skies are raining big blocks of ice, and experts are trying to learn what's going on.‎ For the second time in six days, California was attacked by ice balls.The latest happened on early Thursday.A large block of ice dropped into Loma Linda, California.The ice crashed through the metal roof (房顶) of a fitness center, leaving a hole up to 21/2 feet wide.No one was hurt.‎ Two tennis players were playing outside the Drayson Center on Thursday morning.Suddenly they heard a strange sound, said Crawford, an official of the Loma Linda Fire Department.‎ A similar event happened last Saturday in Oakland, California.Early in the ‎ morning an ice ball dropped into a field at Bushrod Park and made a hole up to 2 feet wide.Luckily, no one in the park was injured.‎ One theory is the ice was dropped from planes.But there's little direct support for that.A few experts have suggested there may be other causes of similar ice falls, perhaps even global (全球的) warming.‎ Stories about dropping ice go back for centuries.They didn't begin to receive serious scientific attention until a few years ago, however, when Spain was attacked by a dozen large ice balls in 2000.‎ Scientist Jesus MartinezFrias in Madrid and his team have collected reports of forty cases around the world since 1999 of puzzling falling ice.He thinks the ice forms in the air by a process similar to the formation of hail (冰雹) inside storms but without a storm.‎ MartinezFrias believes global warming is causing the troposphere (对流层) to rise.This means the roof of the troposphere is forced to a greater height, where it cools more than normal.Thus, the temperature difference between warm and cold air in the troposphere produces strong upanddown winds that repeat the hailformation process, without a storm.‎ 语篇解读:本文是说明文。科学家正在努力破解天降冰球之谜。‎ ‎32.What took place on Thursday morning?‎ A.A fitness center caught fire.‎ B.A big ice ball fell in Loma Linda.‎ C.There was heavy rain in Loma Linda.‎ D.Two tennis players were hit by an ice ball.‎ 解析:选B 细节理解题。由第二段中的“A large block of ice dropped into Loma Linda”可知答案。‎ ‎33.What is the similarity between the two events in California?‎ A.No one was injured.‎ B.No building was destroyed.‎ C.Both were seen by Crawford.‎ D.Both caused a large number of holes.‎ 解析:选A 细节理解题。由第二段中的“No one was hurt.”和第四段中的“no one in the park was injured”可知,这两起事件都未造成人员受伤。‎ ‎34.What do we learn about dropping ice?‎ A.It is very common around the world.‎ B.It often happens in Spain in recent years.‎ C.It has been carefully studied since 2000.‎ D.It is most likely to be produced by planes.‎ 解析:选C 细节理解题。由第六段中的“They didn't begin to receive serious scientific attention until a few years ago ...in 2000.”可知,从2000年开始,科学家才开始认真研究天降冰球现象。‎ ‎35.What is the cause of ice falls according to MartinezFrias?‎ A.Strong winds above the troposphere.‎ B.The formation of hail.‎ C.Global warming.‎ D.Big storms.‎ 解析:选C 细节理解题。由最后一段中的“MartinezFrias believes global warming is causing the troposphere (对流层) to rise.”可知答案。‎ 第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)‎
