Book 7 Unit 4 Public transport阅读理解组块练.阅读理解AAcross the United States，there are several places where two independent towns grew together to become one citybut kept both their names.WinstonSalem is one of them.Its a midsized city in whats called the plateau(high land)，between the Atlantic Coast and the inland mountains in the state of North Carolina.The Winston part is a relatively new place，founded early this century.Its home to the nations biggest open air tobacco market.The giant RJ.Reynolds Tobacco Companys headquarters is in WinstonSalem，and Winston is the name of one of Reynolds best known cigarette brands.Fastgrowing Winston soon surrounded the much older town of Salem，so in 1913，people in the area voted to combine them into a single place.From a historical and tourist point of view，Salem，or Old Salem，as its called today，is the interesting and unusual part of town.Salem was founded in the 1700s by the Moravians.They spoke German，and their community was religiously based，with single men and single women living apart in separate dormitories.The Moravians greatly valued womens work and brainpower.In fact，one of the nations oldest boarding schools for young womenthe Moravians Salem Academy founded in 1772is still in operation.Over the years，Salem lost its Moravian character.That all changed，though，when a nonprofit group began to rehabilitate the historic area.These days Old Salem is whats called a living history museum，with exhibits，music，and tours of 18thcentury houses，taverns and Moravian dormitory buildings just seven blocks from the tallest skyscraper in WinstonSalem.The historic community is booming again.Just as RJ.Reynolds is taking in millions of dollars making cigarettes across town，Old Salem is generating about$15 million a year in tourism revenue and donations.1From the passage we can know that_.AWinstonSalem is the name of a cityBSalem is home to the tobacco marketCthe city WinstonSalem has two namesDOld Salem is the name of a tobacco brand2It can be inferred from Paragraph 3 that_.Athe two cities benefited each otherBSalem developed faster than WinstonCthe combination meets the wishes of the peopleDR.J.Reynolds Company has moved into Salem3.The underlined word “rehabilitate”in Paragraph 6 is closest in meaning to_.AreconstructBevaluateCenlarge Ddecorate4What will probably be talked about in the following part?ASome other attractions in WinstonSalem.BHow Winston makes profits from tourism.COther examples of cities combined by two parts.DSomething about the boarding school for women.【答案与解析】1A推理判断题。文章第一段说两个原本独立的美国城镇会逐渐合二为一，第二段就引出了WinstonSalem，由此可知这是一个城市的名字。故选A。2C推理判断题。由第三段的people in the area voted to combine them into a single place.可知人们投票同意将两个地方合并，所以说“满足了人们的愿望”。故选C。3A词义猜测题。由该词前面的句意可知，rehabilitate表示“重建，再建”。4C推理判断题。文章主要讲述“美国城镇合二为一”，又举了WinstonSalem的例子，所以接下来最有可能谈论的将是“其他合二为一的例子”。故选C。B(2018河南省中原名校高三第六次质量考评)An autonomous vehicle designed for making local commerce deliveries was unveiled by Nuro.The vehicle is about the height of an SW but far narrower than a typical car.The electric car features four exterior compartments (暗格) two on each side to hold separate deliveries.Each compartment can be tailored to a specific use, such as cooking a pizza or refrigerating a package.“We can use selfdriving technology to deliver anything, anytime, anywhere for basically all local goods and services，” Nuro cofounder Dave Ferguson said.“Consumers used to be okay with twoweek paid shipping.It became twoweek free delivery, followed by one week, two days, and the same day.Now sameday delivery isnt fast enough for some customers.”Nuro isnt alone in building robots for local commerce deliveries.Earlier this month, Toyota, a Japanese car company, unveiled a concept vehicle that could be used for package delivery.A handful of startups including Starship Technologies, Marble and Dispatch are testing small robots for deliveries on sidewalks.Nuros vehicle will likely face legal hurdles.Fully autonomous vehicles without a test driver arent legal in California today, and many companies have shifted testing to states where regulators are more welcoming of autonomous vehicles, such as Arizona.Nuro expects to face fewer challenges because it doesnt carry passengers.Nuros narrow size may also be helpful when navigating streets and avoiding pedestrians.The vehicle isnt equipped with any special features to communicate with pedestrians or other road users.Some companies have tested and patented solutions such as digital screens that signal the cars next move.Ferguson said his team conducted studies and found that such techniques could confuse people.Nuro believes its better to make sure the car performs predictably, so that human drivers know what to expect from it.“We feel by creating this new technology thats going to enable this last mile delivery, were going to be creating new markets and doing things that previously werent possible，” Ferguson said.“This is not swapping out jobs with robots.Its creating new markets.There will definitely be new employment opportunities.”5What is the main characteristic of the Nuros selfdriving vehicle?AIt can cook delicious meals for customers.BIt is a pioneer in the field of selfdriving vehicles.CIt is far narrower and higher than other autonomous ones.DIts deliveries can be transported in the special compartments.6Why is the Nuros vehicle not equipped with communicating features?AIts digital screens often break down.BPeople may be puzzled at the features.CThe features have not been developed.DIts performance is usually hard to predict.7What can we infer about Fergusons opinion on this new technology?ABeneficial. BChallenging.CControversial. DAmbiguous.【答案与解析】5D细节理解题。根据文章第一段最后两句可知，Nuro自动驾驶汽车的主要特征是它可以用特殊的暗格运送物品，故选D。6B细节理解题。根据倒数第二段第五句可知，这样的技术可能会使人困惑，故选B。7A观点态度题。根据文章最后一段Ferguson 的话可知这样的新技术可以增加新的就业机会，可以推测Ferguson认为这样的新技术是有益的，故选A。C(2018福建闽侯第六中学月考)What might the future be like?

preserves，youll often be told to leave nothing but footprints.1One is your physical footprint.The other is what is known as your carbon footprint.2Often people consider their carbon footprint to be the result of their immediate use of fossil fuels and energy usage，like cooking with natural gas or using petrol to run their automobile.3This may include the fossil fuel used to transport the food that you buy at your local grocery store，or the energy used to deal with the waste produced in your household.Taking small steps to reduce your carbon footprint and saving energy is actually fairly simple.4It requires the burning of fossil fuels to make the bottle，transport it，and get rid of it if its not recycled.Compared with it，inhouse filtration(过滤)systems can reduce your influence and cost for water.Unplugging appliances that are not frequently in use is another way to reduce your carbon footprint.Most of these items have a standby mode(待机模式)that wastes energy even when theyre not in use.5What is more，new energy efficient light bulbs，filters，and appliances could also help reduce your carbon footprint.In a word，less energy used means less greenhouse gas produced.With easy steps，you are on your way to reducing the size of the carbon footprint left behind.AWhat fossil fuels may lead to carbon footprints?BHowever，wherever we go，we actually leave two sets of footprints.CCutting off power is the best way to ensure that unnecessary energy is not lost.DFor instance，the use of bottled water leaves a rather significant carbon footprint.EWe often forget footprints sometimes consequently do harm to the environment.FHowever，your carbon footprint consists of many activities that can be far less obvious.GThat refers to the level of greenhouse gases your lifestyle and activity produce and send out.【答案】15BGFDC语言知识运用组块练.完形填空(2018安徽皖南八校联考)A few summers ago my daughter and I were swimming in our pool.This day had been like most others，_1_ I had no way of knowing that
