Unit 15Learning能力提升题组训练(A).阅读理解In 1967,a 20-year-old student at Syracuse University became the first woman to officially participate in the Boston Marathon.Fifty years later,Kathrine Switzer crossed the finish line of the Boston Marathon wearing the same number.Switzers marathon in 1967 became historic because she was the first woman to complete the all-male race as an official participant.She registered as “K.V.Switzer” to hide her sex.A few miles into the race,an official tried to remove Switzer from the race.“Naturally I turned my head around quickly and looked square into the most unpleasant face Id ever seen.A huge man with bared teeth was set to pounce(猛扑),and before I could react he grabbed my shoulder,screaming,Get the hell out of my race and give me those numbers!”she wrote in her memoir (回忆录).Switzer finished the race in four hours and 20 minutes,but would later be disqualified and officially forced to leave from the Amateur Athletic Union.Plenty has changed in running since 1967,thanks to Switzers efforts.Since 1972,women are welcome in the Boston Marathon and other major races.On Monday,the 70-year-old finished the Boston Marathon only a little slower,in 44431.Her number was retired after the racejust the second number that the marathon has retired.Before her start,she was given the honor of firing the gun for the womens top runners.“In 1967,few would have believed that marathon running would someday attract millions of women,become an appealing event in the Olympics and on the streets of major cities,help transform views of womens physical ability and help redefine their economic roles in traditional cultures,” Switzer wrote.“Weve come a light year but we still have a long way to go.”1.What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about?A.Switzers Boston Marathon results.B.Switzers being removed from the race.C.Switzers hiding her sex in registration.D.Switzers experience in the Boston Marathon.2.Why was Switzer treated that way by the Amateur Athletic Union?A.She lacked proper training in marathon race.B.They found her quarrelling with the official.C.She had little experience in the long race.D.They had discrimination against women.3.Why was Switzers number retired after the race?A.She performed poorly in the race.B.Nobody wanted to use the number any more.C.She was the second retired athlete in marathon.D.They honored her contributions to women marathon.4.Whats Switzers attitude towards women marathon?A.Optimistic.B.Disappointed.C.Doubtful.D.Unclear.语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。凯瑟琳斯威策是世界上第一位正式参加马拉松的女子选手,象征着女性对自身权利的一种追求。答案及剖析:1.D主旨大意题。文章第二段讲述凯瑟琳突破禁忌,在1967年参加波士顿马拉松时候的经历。故选D项。2.D推理判断题。由第二段中的Switzers marathon in 1967 became historic because she was the first woman to complete the all-male race as an official participant.可知,当时马拉松项目只允许男性参与,这件事直接体现出当时社会上对女性充分参与体育运动的普遍反对,存在性别歧视。3.D推理判断题。根据文章第三段,尤其是Plenty has changed in running since 1967,thanks to Switzers efforts.Since 1972,women are welcome in the Boston Marathon and other major races.可判断,在五年后的1972年,波士顿马拉松赛终于允许女性正式进入比赛,这在一定程度上要归功于凯瑟琳。故为了表达对她的敬仰,在她70岁参加完比赛之后参赛选手不再使用凯瑟琳胸前挂着的号码。4.A推理判断题。根据最后一段,尤其最后一个句子 “Weve come a light year but we still have a long way to go.”体现了凯瑟琳对女性参与社会生活的信心。故选A项。.七选五(2018湖南长沙雅礼中学、河南实验中学高三联考)Why you shouldnt punish your kids for lyingGetting your children to stop lying is challenging.There are many influences (TV, movies, video games and some great books) in which lies are common.Children see parents lie to others, if only to be polite.Most parents add to that with tales about the lives and activities of Santa Claus or the Tooth Fairy, or to lessen fears.1.The most common reactions to children who lie are explaining why it is wrong and punishment.2. Here are three better tools supported by research to use instead.PRAISE: You could ask your child to say something that happened at school that is true.When your child obeys, praise him enthusiastically.Be specific:3. and give your child a hug or a high five.Aim for one or two interactions (互动) like this a day.If you happen to “catch” your child in a lie, say something like, “That is not true and could get you in trouble outside of the home.”MODEL: Explicitly tell the truth.This could be about something that happened when you were a child or something that happened during the day.It need not be dramatic.Another option is to play a game at dinner.Each person tells one thing that was true that day.Again, give a little praise to the child who normally lies if he / she plays along.DECREASE PUNISHMENT AND MORALIZING: They are unlikely to change behavior or develop the conduct you want.4. Rather, use very mild punishment (light scolding, short loss of privilege, a brief time-out).More severe punishments (shouting, taking away something for a week, hitting) are not more effective in actually changing the frequency of lying.5. Usually they can be dropped by then.It is unlikely that lying will be completely removed, but with the right encouragement, it can be dramatically lessened.A.It is not what that is, but about practice.B.As ways of changing behavior, these are ineffective.C.That does not mean ignoring, lying or letting it go.D.“That was great! You told me what happened just like I asked.Wow!”E.Try these procedures for two to three weeks and see where you are.F.“You did a good job, but what you said was not what Id like to know!”G.Parents do this out of love, but for some children, lying can become a problem.答案:15GBDCE.完形填空(2018湖南长沙雅礼中学、河南实验中学高三联考)How can I forget the day? On 14 July 1974 I travelled in an overcrowded bus to an unheard town called Shendurni.The next day, I was to join the faculty of a junior college there.1 about my new job, but anxious and fearful too, I was out of my 2 zone.Around 7 p.m.it started pouring with rain.Wondering about my new career in an unknown land, I had 3 in my seat.I woke up with a(n)4 to the sound of the conductor announcing the name of my bus stop.I looked out.It was pitch-dark.Ah, a power cut.5 unusual during heavy rains.“Conductor Sahab, can I get a 6 for myself here? Im new to the place,” I heard myself ask 7.“Arre bhai, get off my bus and let us go.We 8 to reach the next station on time.Where will you get a place to stay in this goddamned town?” he shouted back.Amid mounting panic, I felt a 9 tap on my shoulder.As I looked back, a warm smile 10 me.“Im Sawant, from the next town.The bus 11 there for the night and returns tomorrow morning.Why dont you buy a ticket for the next stop? You can spend the night at my place, and join work tomorrow.” I thanked him from my heart and accepted his 12.By the time the bus reached the final stop, it was 8:30 p.m.The kind soul led me to his house.He and his wife took great 13 to make my stay comfortable.I was 14 with warm water for a bath, followed by a hot 15 and a comfortable bed.All this took place in semi-darkness.No lights yet.I was up early the next morning and my benefactor (恩人) came to 16 me off.I could not see his face clearly, as it was 17 dark.I made it 18 the college in time and taught there for almost 11 years.While I 19 him, I even asked my new friends and students to help find the kind soul.But Mr.Sawant remained 20.Perhaps I had got his name wrong.My only regret: I could not thank him again.1.A.ExcitedB.InterestedC.WorriedD.Annoyed2.A.homeB.schoolC.comfortD.dilemma3.A.knocked offB.dropped offC.turned offD.nodded off4.A.startB.jumpC.earD.eye5.A.SomethingB.AnythingC.EverythingD.Nothing6.A.seatB.roomC.ticketD.map7.A.sadlyB.quicklyC.nervouslyD.surprisingly8.A.comeB.getC.needD.ask9.A.suddenB.softC.realD.warm10.A.wavedB.welcomedC.greetedD.shook11.A.stopsB.arrivesC.leavesD.drives12.A.familyB.solutionC.invitationD.request13.A.pleasureB.energyC.mindsD.pains14.A.providedB.armedC.impressedD.blessed15.A.chatB.discussionC.mealD.tea16.A.allowB.keepC.showD.see17.A.yetB.stillC.alreadyD.also18.A.toB.inC.fromD.for19.A.sent forB.searched forC.cared forD.waited for20.A.silentB.strangeC.unbelievableD.untraceable语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。作者在去任教的路上遇到大雨,在一位好心人的帮助下,在他家度过了一晚,第二天顺利到达了学院,在那里一教就是11年。但是作者唯一遗憾的是没有找到那位好心人,再次感谢他。答案及剖析:1.AExcited兴奋的;Interested感兴趣的;Worried担忧的;Annoyed烦恼的。我对我的新工作感到兴奋,但也感到焦虑和恐惧,我走出了自己的舒适区。根据后面的but可知,与后文的anxious and fearful相反,故选A项。2.Chome家;school学校;comfort舒适;dilemma困境。我对我的新工作感到兴奋,但也感到焦虑和恐惧,我走出了自己的舒适区。故选C项。3.Dknocked off使减少;dropped off减少,下降;turned off关掉;nodded off打盹。我在一个陌生的地方对我的新职业感到疑惑,我在座位上打盹。根据下句中的woke up可推知,是“在打盹”,故选D项。4.Astart开始;jump跳跃;ear耳朵;eye眼。我一觉醒来,听到列车员宣布我的公共汽车站的名字。故A项切题。5.DSomething某事;Anything任何事情;Everything每件事情;Nothing无事,无物。在大雨中没有什么特别的。故D项切题。6.Bseat座位;room房间;ticket票;map地图。我可以在这里为自己找个房间吗?我是新来的。根据下文可知,是找房间,不是找座位、票和地图。故选B项。7.Csadly伤心地;quickly迅速地;nervously紧张不安地;surprisingly令人惊奇地。我听到自己紧张不安地询问。故C
