Module 1 Deep South (建议用时:30分钟) 阅读理解A(2019沈阳教学质量监测)Encouraging life to bloom(兴旺) in the middle of a desert is no easy task. But one company in the United Arab Emirates has come up with a plan to provide drinking water for the states citizens. The company intends to drag icebergs from Antarctica to the gulf coast in order to harvest its fresh water.The company plans to source the massive blocks of ice from Heard Island, around 600 miles off the coast of mainland Antarctica. It will then transport them around 5,500 miles to Fujairah, one part of the UAE. One iceberg could provide enough water for one million people over five years, according to the company.The companys director says they have already travelled the transportation route and checked the possibility of the scheme, according to reports in Gulf News. Speaking to the site about what he is calling the UAE Iceberg Project, Abdullah Mohammad Sulaiman Al Shehi said, “We have made the technical and financial plan. We will start the project at the beginning of 2018. We want it mainly for the water. It could also be good for tourism and the weather.” The UAE is one of the driest countries in the world, due to its extremely arid climate, which receives less than four inches of rainfall per year. Despite that, it consumes more water than double the global national average, putting the country at severe risk of droughts over the next 25 years.An average iceberg contains more than 20 billion gallons of water, according to the company. The iceberg takes a long time to melt as 80 percent of it is under the water, while the white ice above reflects sunlight and deflects(使转向) its heat. Blocks of ice will be placed in giant tanks, before being processed. “This is the purest water in the world,” Mr. Al Shehi added.【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文,文中介绍了阿联酋有一家公司计划把南极洲的冰山运到附近的海湾,以解决国内的缺水问题。1What can we learn about the UAE project?AIt will help the UAE harvest fresh water.BIt will encourage life to boom in Antarctica.CIt will put the UAE at severe risk of droughts.DIt will completely change the climate in the UAE.A解析:细节理解题。根据文章第一段中的“The company intends to drag icebergs from Antarctica to the gulf coast in order to harvest its fresh water.”可知,这个项目会给阿联酋带来淡水。故选A项。2Where could the block of ice come from?AThe Atlantic Ocean.BFujairah.CThe Gulf. DHeard Island.D解析:细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“The company plans to source the massive blocks of ice from Heard Island, around 600 miles off the coast of mainland Antarctica.”可知,这个公司计划从Heard Island上获取冰山。source在本句中表示 “从获得”。3Which of the following may NOT benefit from the project?AThe local people. BAntarctica.CThe weather. DTourism.B解析:细节理解题。根据文中第二段中的“One iceberg could provide enough water for one million people over five years”和第三段中的“It could also be good for tourism and the weather.”可知,冰山可以为人们带来淡水,这个项目对旅游业和气候也有利,结合题目要求可知选B项。4The author mentions the nature of ice in the last paragraph to show Athe process of the projectBthe possibility of the planCthe purpose of the companyDthe comments on the schemeB解析:推理判断题。根据最后一段中提到的冰山含有大量的水且融化需要很长时间,再结合 “Blocks of ice will be placed in giant tanks, before being processed.”可以推知,作者在该段提及冰的特性意在表明该计划的可实施性,故选B项。B(2019洛阳第一次统考)I look around and cant recognize where I am. It seems familiar but distant. I see my friends gather by a stage where music is playing and I run over. As I begin running towards them, they become further and further away. I keep calling them, but no one hears me. I start hearing a distant alarmlike sound and I am transported away. I woke up in a daze(茫然) sitting in my bed. “Oh, it was only a dream,” I said to myself, I have always had vivid and intense dreams. Sometimes, it feels like I havent even slept because I have been living in my dreams during my sleep. Today, dreaming is being studied even more than ever. Some say that dreams are how your receptors(感受器) make sense of random thoughts while you sleep. Some say that you cant dream of a face you have never seen before, so everyone you see in your dreams is whom you have at least laid eyes on at one time or another. Other people think dreams are ways of expressing stress or internal feelings you may be experiencing. A lot of people say that they have dreams about being chased(追逐). A common interpretation of the “being chased” dream is that you are feeling threatened. Some dream interpretation sites say you should try to reflect on what or who is chasing you to get a better idea of what is making you feel this way. Another dream that is often experienced is flying. This dream has a much more positive interpretation, which is that you are feeling free or have broken out of a bad situation such as a relationship turning sour or a job you hate. Unfortunately, you may forget half of your dream within five minutes of waking up and within 10 minutes, you usually forget 90 percent of it. Dreamologists, people who devote time to the study and interpretation of dreams, suggest if you want to try to remember and study your dreams you should keep a diary beside your bed and write down what you dreamt as soon as you wake up so you can reflect on it later.【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文,作者通过讲述自己做的梦来引出话题,分析了梦所代表的意义。5Dreams of “being chased” occur because Ayou are feeling threatenedByou just quit a job you hateCyour friends are far away from you when you are in needDyour receptors are always thinking while you sleepA解析:细节理解题。根据第五段中的“A common interpretation of the being chased dream is that you are feeling threatened.”可知,对于梦中 “被追逐” 的常见解读是你正感觉受到威胁。故选A项。6Why should we keep a diary beside our bed to reflect on dreams?AWe need to chase those people who appeared in our dreams.BWe usually forget 90 percent of a dream within 10 minutes.CIt can help us get out of the intense dreams.DIt can help us sleep well without dreams.B解析:细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“you may forget half of your dream within five minutes of waking up and within 10 minutes,you usually forget 90 percent of it”可知,人可能会在醒来后5分钟内忘掉一半的梦,10分钟内,往往已经忘掉了90%。因此我们可以在床边放一本日记本,方便醒来后马上把梦写下来。故选B项。7Where can we read this article?AIn a poster.BIn a physics book.CIn a travelling magazine.DIn a science newspaper.D解析:文章出处题。通读全文可知,本文对梦进行了分析,并对梦中“被追逐”和“飞翔” 进行了解读,因此本文属于科学范畴,故选D项。8What is the best title for the passage?AWhy Am I Always DreamingBHow Is My Dream CreatedCWhat Do My Dreams MeanDHow to Avoid DreamsC解析:标题归纳题。通读全文并根据第三段中的“Some say that dreams are how your receptors(感受器) make sense of random thoughts while you sleep.”及第四段中的“Other people think dreams are ways of expressing stress or internal feelings you may be experiencing.”可知,本文对梦所代表的意义进行了分析,故选C项。 完形填空(2019济南针对性训练)A taxi driver taught me a lesson in customer satisfaction and expectations.Inspiring speakers 1 thousands of dollars to give this kind of training to corporate directors and staff.It cost me only a $12 2 ride.I had 3 into Dallas just for the purpose of calling on a client.Time was precious and my 4 included a quick roundtrip from and back to the airport.A 5 taxi pulled up.The driver rushed to 6 the passenger door for me and made sure I was 7 seated before he closed the door.As he got in the drivers seat,he 8 that the neatly folded Wall Street Journal next to me was for my use.He then showed me several 9 and asked me what type of music I would enjoy.I could not believe the 10 I was receiving!I took the opportunity to say, “ 11 you take great pride in your work.You must have a 12 to share.” “You bet,” he 13 . “I used to be in Corporate America.But I was tired of thinking my best would never be good enough.I 14 to find my right position in life,where I could feel 15 of being the best.I love driving cars,and feeling like I have done a full days work and done it 16 So I chose to become a 17 One thing I know for sure,to be good in my business I just have to meet the expectations of my passengers. 18 ,to be great in my business,I have to go 19 the customers expectations!” The taxi driver taught me a great life 20 :Go an extra mile when providing any service to others.【解题导语】本文主要讲述了一名出租车司机给作者上了一堂关于如何达到客户满意和期望的课。1A.offerBchargeCpay DaffordB解析:根据空后的“thousands of dollars to give this kind of training to corporate directors and staff.It cost me only a $12”可知,励志演讲家的培训是要收费的。charge表示 “收费”,符合语境。2A.taxi BbusCcar DtrainA解析:根据文章第一句“A taxi driver taught me a lesson in customer satisfaction and expectations.”可知,出租车司机收作者12美元。3A.driven BflownCrun DcycledB解析:根据第二段第二句的“Time was precious and my included a quick roundtrip from and back to the airport.”可知,作者当时是乘飞机去的。4A.hope BpurposeCplan DchoiceC解析:根据语境可知,时间很珍贵,作者的计划中包括往返机场的旅程。5A.private BroughCslow DcleanD解析:根据下文的“the neatly folded Wall Street Journal next to me was for my use”可推知,出租车很干净。6A.open BlockCpush DshutA解析:结合 “the passenger door for me”可推知,司机赶快跑过来给作者开车门。7A.silently BcomfortablyCtightly DcasuallyB解析:根据语境可推知,该司机注重乘客的满意度,所以他一定确保作者乘坐舒适。8A.declared BconcludedCfound DmentionedD解析:根据语境可推知,司机向乘客提醒有杂志可看。mention “提到”。9A.pictures BmapsCtapes DbooksC解析:根据空后的“asked me what type of music I would enjoy”可推知,司机给作者拿出几盘音乐磁带让他选择。10A.service BgiftCinvitation DadviceA解析:根据空后的“I
