单元质量检测(六)(时间：100分钟满分：120分) .阅读理解(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。AOne week after I started working in Beijing, I decided to visit a place of interest called the Summer Palace. Before setting off, I researched into it on the Internet. The Summer Palace is composed mostly of a lake, but its surrounded by beautiful greenery and a walkway that circles the lake. It is recommended that you give the Summer Palace about three hours. If you try to walk around it, it could take five or six hours. With that knowledge of it, I set off.The highlight of the tour had to be the view from the Tower of Buddhist Incense. It sits on top of a large hill overlooking the lake and that is worth the climb. It was built as a place to worship (敬拜) Buddha. And in the Summer Palace, unlike most of the other places, photography wasnt allowed in most of the buildings. Most of the statues of Buddha and the other artifacts (手工艺品) were offlimits to photos.Another highlight was seeing the stage created for the Dowager Empress where she watched the opera and other theater items. There are box seats that surround the stage and it was the largest stage created in all of Imperial China. You could almost imagine royalty reviewing the actors from the boxes and the stage.I do recommend taking a boat ride if you go, which takes you from one side of the lake to the other side where you can see another set of buildings. And it is fun. You can also rent an electric or paddle boat if you want. But since it was just me, I went on one of the biggest boats with other people.I spent another four hours wandering around the Summer Palace. But I didnt see all of it because it was getting dark. I am looking forward to visiting it again.1Before setting off to the Summer Palace, the author _.Aasked others about itBdidnt think it was largeCdidnt know what to seeDlearned something about it解析：选D细节理解题。根据第一段的“Before setting off, I researched into it on the Internet.”可知，出发前作者了解了一些颐和园的情况。2While visiting the Tower of Buddhist Incense, the author _.Aworshipped BuddhaBtouched some artifactsCcouldnt take photos as she likedDwasnt deeply impressed by it at all解析：选C推理判断题。根据第二段的“Most of the statues of Buddha and the other artifacts were offlimits to photos.”可推断，作者不能尽情地拍照。3What do we know about the second highlight mentioned in the text?AIt sits on top of a hill.BIt is the largest stage all over China.COperas are performed there at times.DIt was for the royalty to watch performances.解析：选D细节理解题。根据第三段的“Another highlight was seeing the stage created for the Dowager Empress where she watched the opera and other theater items.”以及后文内容可知，这个地方是供清皇室成员观看表演的。4Why did the author choose to take a ride in a big boat instead of other boats?ABecause the author was persuaded to do that.BBecause the author wanted to be more comfortable.CBecause the author wanted to save some money.DBecause it was more suitable for the author to do that.解析：选D推理判断题。根据第四段的“You can also rent an electric or paddle boat if you want. But since it was just me, I wenton one of the biggest boats with other people.”可知，这种选择更适合作者。BMy cousin Tom used to like playing video games very much. He could spend the whole weekend playing video games without going out. At last, his parents became concerned. They wanted to change the situation. So they arranged some afterschool programs for him. At first, Tom didnt like them. But as time went by, he fell in love with afterschool programs. Now he no longer plays video games and spends most of his time attending afterschool programs, through which he has gained many important skills. Afterschool programs can be very helpful. Here are some reasons：Children need friends. But many of todays children find it hard to make new friends because they lack opportunities. Afterschool programs are good for children to establish new friendships. Two of my close friends and I first met in a singing program. If I hadnt attended that program, I might not have made friends with them.Children need afterschool programs because the programs often supplement (补充) the education children receive in school. This is particularly true for tutoring programs. The tutors give children new ways of learning their material, and the children benefit from the encouragement tutors provide. An important part of a childs development is having healthy social skills, and afterschool programs help develop this. For example, when a program participant takes painting lessons with fellow participants, he builds new friendships through this new skill and learns values of teamwork, honesty, selflessness and how to encourage others.In afterschool sports clubs, children get necessary exercise that will benefit their health in the future. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, children should spend at least one hour a day engaging in physical activities.Afterschool programs may also help children become more wellrounded through taking part in various cultural activities. For example, children may go to a book signing at a public library, a free jazz concert in the park, or an exhibit at the museum.If both parents work, afterschool programs provide a safe place for children to attend until their parents return from work.5According to Paragraph 3, through going to afterschool activities, children can _.Ameet more peopleBbe better educatedClearn to be good examplesDlearn to encourage others解析：选B细节理解题。根据第三段的“the programs often supplement the education children receive in school”以及“The tutors give children new ways of learning their material”可知，这一段表明课外活动可以让小孩接受更好的教育。6What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 4 refer to?AA childs development.BBuilding new friendships.CHaving healthy social skills.DLearning values of teamwork.解析：选C代词指代题。根据第四段的“An important part of a childs development is having healthy social skills”以及develop的语境可知，this指代拥有好的社交技能。7Which of the following benefits is NOT mentioned in the text?AAllowing children to be safer.BHelping children get the necessary exercise.CHelping children love going to school more.DHelping children become more wellrounded.解析：选C细节理解题。根据文章内容可知，文中并没有提到参加课外活动可以让学生喜欢上学这一点，故选C项。8What is the text mainly about?AWhat children should do after school.BWhy children shouldnt play video games.CWhere children can benefit from afterschool programs.DWhy afterschool programs are important for children.解析：选D主旨大意题。根据文章内容可知，本文主要是讲小孩子参加课外活动有很多益处，故选D项。CThe leastvisited countries in the worldIts every travelers dream a corner of the planet still undisturbed by tourists.And obviously, such places do exist.The United Nations World Tourism Organization lately reported the four leastvisited countries globally.Montserrat (9,000)Once a popular holiday spot, this Lesser Antilles island has never quite recovered from a series of natural disasters.Hurricane Hugo in 1989 hit 90 per cent of the island and in 1995 the Soufriere Hills volcano erupted.These days, its volcano is now actually one of Montserrats main attractions, along with its beautiful beaches.Visitors can also go diving in its clear waters.Comoros (24,000)This collection of islands in the Indian Ocean near Madagascar serves as the perfect destination for those who want to get away from everyday city life.Comoros offers beautiful volcanic scenery, fruitful forests, and remote sleepy towns.There are even some of the best undiscovered reefs (礁) just waiting to be explored by divers.Liechtenstein (69,000)The sixth smallest country in the world is also one of the most undiscovered.Lying between Austria and Switzerland, Liechtenstein is an outdoor enthusiasts playground.Its the only country in the world to be totally in the Alps and a summer destination for hiking and cycling and snowcovered skiing perfection in winter, for those who can afford it.French Guiana (199,000)French Guiana is the leastvisited country in South America, with some of the worlds most diverse plant and animal life.While there is much to attract tourists to the area, not least its miles of jungle, the infrastructure (基础设施) is in need of some attention.9What do Montserrat and Comoros have in common?AThey have thick forests.BThey are destinations for divers.CThey have recovered from natural disasters.DThey were badly destroyed by volcanic eruptions.解析：选B细节理解题。根据Montserrat (9,000)中介绍的“Visitors can also go diving in its clear waters”及Comoros (24,000)中的“undiscovered reefs just waiting to be explored by divers”可知，这两个地方都适合潜水爱好者前往。10Which country is the best choice for snow skiing lovers?AMontserrat.BComoros.CLiechtenstein.

Their personality may make them more eager to try new fruits and vegetables.But its also possible that eating healthy foods can cause anyone to feel more like an extrovert: Another of Conners studies found that in the short term, eating more fruits and vegetables resulted in more feelings of motivation, which she says are key characteristics of extroversion.So, you want to eat better? Start eating like an open, extroverted person.“Try to take an attitude of openness, especially toward unusual healthy foods，” Conner said.“Go to the store, and pick something new.Practice behaving like an open person.”语篇解读：本文是说明文。文章介绍了一项新的研究发现：人格会影响饮食习惯，饮食习惯反过来也对人格会产生一定的影响。12What does the new research focus on?AFood and health.BPersonality and health.CEating habits and health.DEating habits and personality.解析：选D细节理解题。根据首段中的“Scientists may have evidence that our personality plays into our eating habits”可知，该项研究的对象为饮食习惯和人格的关系。13What do we know about the experiment?AIt asked participants to share their food diaries.BIt was carried out among old people.CIt involved five personalities.DIt lasted for a month.解析：选C细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Researchers gave participants a test to measure for the Big Five personalities”可知，研究者为了研究人格和饮食习惯之间的关系，测试了参与者在五大人格中分属的人格种类。14Which of the following would lead you to eat more fruits and vegetables?AOpenness to experience.BExtroversion.CConscientiousness.DAgreeableness.解析：选A细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Extroversion .not as strongly as openness did, while conscientiousness was a weak predictor of produce consumption”可知，创新型的人吃的水果蔬菜量居首位。15What does Conner suggest?AConsulting an extrovert about foods.BMaking friends with open people.CGoing on a balanced diet.DTrying new healthy foods.解析：选D推理判断题。根据末段中的“Try to take an attitude of openness, especially toward unusual healthy foods”和“Go to the store, and pick something new”可知，Conner建议人们尝试自己未曾吃过的健康食物。.阅读七选五(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。People need homes: children assume their parents place as home; boarders call school “home” on weekdays; married couples work together to build new homes; and travelers have no place to call “home”， at least for a few nights._16_？ Dont they have the right to a home?
