课时达标(十五) Unit 5 Canada“The True North”阅读提速练 阅读理解A课标话题人与社会社会服务体裁说明文词 数 326难度 As the weather costs you a loss on trains and flights, we look at your rights.TrainsOn a single ticket, a passenger will usually receive 25% of the fare if the train is delayed by 15 minutes. If the delay reaches 30 minutes, the compensation(补偿金) rises to 50%, and if its over an hour you should be able to reclaim the whole cost. Clear arrangements varyaccording to train operator(运营商)If you were due to travel, to say Aberdeen from London, your train is cancelled and you decide not to travel, you can get a full compensation. If you had a noncancelable ticket with one operator, and failed to make that train because the connecting train was delayed, you can take the next available train.FlightsIf your flight is cancelled because of the snow, you have the right to a full compensation of the ticket, or to be rerouted(变更旅程) home on a later flight.But you will have no right to get a delay or cancellation compensation under EU rules, because the snow is an extraordinary circumstance beyond the airlines control. If you dont take the compensation and choose to be rerouted, and it means you are stuck at the airport overnight, its the airlines duty to pay for a reasonably priced hotel room and meals.The airline has to reroute you at the earliest opportunity, or at the passengers free time. You are supposed to take the availability of seats.If you choose to be rerouted or if your departure is delayed by more than two hours, airlines also have to provide assistance such as food. The airlines keep this quiet and getting the money out of the lowcost operators can be a hard job. Keep evidence of cancellations, all receipts, and use your mobile to video any offer to pay by airline staff.语篇导读恶劣的天气会导致火车或飞机延误，本文介绍了此种情形下相关的赔偿细节以及乘客应对这种情况的措施。1What is your compensation determined by when your trains are delayed due to bad weather?AThe operator.BThe price of the ticket.CThe length of delay timeDThe class of the service and the price of the ticket.解析C细节理解题。根据Trains部分的第一段第一、二句可知，当火车因恶劣天气延误时，赔偿要依据延迟时间的长短来定，故选C项。2How many choices do you have if you are to travel Aberdeen from London when your train is cancelled?AOneBTwo.CThreeDFour.解析B细节理解题。根据Trains部分的第二段可知，从伦敦到阿伯丁，如果火车被取消了，乘客有两种选择：一种是取消行程，获得全额赔偿；一种是乘坐下一趟可用的列车(take the next available train)，故选B项。3How can you save the trouble in getting money out of the lowcost operators?ABy keeping the evidence and videoing any offer to pay.BAt the earliest opportunity, or the passengers free time.CBy preventing the airlines from keeping their duty quiet.DBy arguing reasonably with the staff of the airlines offering you the flight.解析A细节理解题。根据最后一段最后两句可知，保留证据，并且用手机视频记录应当由机场工作人员提供的任何支付行为，这样才能避免从低成本运营商那里获得资金赔偿的麻烦，故选A项。B课标话题人与自然地理风物体裁应用文词 数 270难度 In more ways than one, Toronto is given far less credit than it really deserves.

Realizing the enormous responsibility of being the first artist whose work is created in outer space, Gever wanted to choose a subject with universal appealsomething that would be appreciated by everyone regardless of country or culture. After considering several ideas, he settled on creating a 3D human laughter, an emotion that is loved and treasured by all of humanity.People wishing to send their giggles to outer space have to download the laugh app and record their best laughterThe app turns the sound file into a 3D model that resembles a burst of light or a “laugh star” which can be shared on social media and also rated by other app users. The laughter that receives the maximum number of likes and tweets by December 31, will be declared the winner.The artist will then transmit the design file of the winning laugh to NASAs Operations Support Center in Alabama, where it will be uploaded via a satellite linked to the ISS. The astronauts will print the 3D sculpture of the “laugh star” and release it into the orbit(轨道) where it will float among real stars for ever, or at least until discovered by aliens!Though this is the first time Gever is creating art for outer space, he is no stranger to unusual projectsHis “Water Dancer”， a projection of light on a water wall, features a dancer whose body disperses(散开) as she movesThe recently sculpted “Piece of Ocean”， created from a realistic computer simulation(模拟试验) of ocean waves, bears an impressive resemblance to the real thing.语篇导读一位艺术家把网上最讨人喜欢的笑声，从音频变为了3D模式，并通过宇航员传入外太空。12What task was Gever given?ATo change human emotion into laughter.BTo select human laughter in the world.CTo create the first piece of outer space art.DTo make 3D sculptures from digital simulations.解析C细节理解题。根据第二段第一、二句可知，其任务是创造第一件外太空艺术品，故选C项。13Why did Gever choose human laughter?AIt is hard to change sound into a 3D model.BIt is easily transported in the air.CIt will cost him little money.DIt is enjoyed around the world.解析D细节理解题。根据第二段最后两句可知，笑是跨越国界和文化被人类普遍欣赏、喜欢和珍视的东西，所以Gever会选择人类的笑声，故选D项。14What can we infer from the last paragraph?AGever is good at making unusual arts.BGever likes to bring others a lot of joy.CGever uses water a lot in his art.DGever copied masterpieces with a computer.解析A推理判断题。根据最后一段可知，虽然这是Gever第一次创造外太空艺术品，但他对特别的项目并不陌生，Water Dancer和Piece of Ocean就是他独创的两个艺术作品。由此可以推断，他擅长创造非同寻常的艺术品，故选A项。15What is the passage mainly about?AThe first piece of art in outer space.B3D printed giggles will be launched into outer space.CA 3D human laughter will be sent to ISS.DThe 3D sculpture of the “laugh star” orbits the earth.解析B主旨大意题。根据全文内容可知，一位艺术家挑选出了网上最讨人喜欢的笑声，把它变成3D模式，然后通过宇航员传入外太空，使之永存于太空中或直到被外星人发现为止，故选B项。【误区警示】本题易错选A项，考生易将本文主旨理解为笑声的3D模式是外太空中的第一件艺术品，但本文的重点并不是关注这件艺术品本身，而是介绍将笑声制作成3D模式，通过宇航员将其留在外太空这一事件，故排除A项。 七选五课标话题人与社会人际关系与社会交往体裁说明文词 数 231难度 (2019昆明摸底)How to Be a Good Listener to Your FamilyCommunication is important for strong family relationships. _1_ Working on your listening skills can help you communicate better and form stronger bonds.Listen actively.When listening to a family member，do not let your mind wander to other things.Its important to make your family member feel heard and valued.Put your phone away and give them your full attention.Never think about other things when someone is talking. _2_ Repeat what has been said.Briefly summarizing what the speaker has said can go a long way towards effective communication.Everyone wants to feel valued and heard, so repeating a family members point can show you were listening. _3_ It can really allow you and your family to communicate better as well. _4_ Interrupting can put breaks on effective conversation.Always allow a few seconds of silence after someone finishes talking before offering your response.This allows you to make sure the speaker has finished talking.Do not talk over someone either.
