unit 2 healthy eating using language课时作业阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(a、b、c和d)中,选出最佳选项。december 15,2014dear alfred,i want to tell you how important your help is to my life.growing up, i had people telling me i was too slow, though, with an iq of 150+ at 17, im anything but stupid.the fact was that i was found to have adhd(注意力缺陷多动障碍).anxious all the time, i was unable to keep focused for more than an hour at a time.however, when something did interest me, i could become absorbed.in high school, i became curious about the computer,and built my first website.moreover, i completed the senior course of computer basics, plus five relevant pre-college courses.while i was exploring my curiosity, my disease got worse.i wanted to go to college after high school, but couldnt. so, i was killing my time at home until june 2012 when i discovered the online computer courses of your training center.since then, i have taken courses like data science and advanced mathematics.currently, im learning your probability course.i have hundreds of printer paper, covered in self-written notes from your video.this has given me a purpose.last year, i spent all my time looking for a job where, without dealing with the public, i could work alone, but still have a team to talk to.luckily, i discovered the jobdata analystthis month and have been going full steam ahead.i want to prove that i can teach myself a respectful profession, without going to college, and be just as good as, if not better than, my competitors.thank you.youve given me hope that i can follow my heart.for the first time, i feel good about myself because im doing something, not because someone told me i was doing good.i feel whole.this is why youre saving my life.yours,tanis语篇导读这是一封书信,作者有注意力缺陷,因此没能实现大学梦,但是一家培训中心的网站给了作者在线学习的机会,让她的生活有了目标,并且找到了一份好工作。21.why didnt tanis go to college after high school?a.she had learned enough about computer science.b.she had more difficulty keeping focused.c.she preferred taking online courses.d.she was too slow to learn.解析:b 细节理解题。题干的“不去读大学”告诉我们,本题的答案应该定位在第四段。该段说,作者的病情变得更糟了,因此不能去读大学,而这个疾病是第二段说到的adhd,具体表现是注意力不能集中较长时间(unable to keep focused for more than an hour at a time),这与b项叙述吻合。22.as for the working environment, tanis prefers_.a.working by herselfb.dealing with the publicc.competing against othersd.staying with adhd students解析:a 细节理解题。根据题干的working environment,我们找到第六段的looking for a job,该段说到作者希望的工作环境:i could work alone,but still have a team to talk to。a项的working by herself与该句的work alone表达的意思是一致的,因此选a。23.tanis wrote this letter in order to_.a.explain why she was interested in the computerb.share the ideas she had for her professionc.show how grateful she was to the centerd.describe the courses she had taken so far解析:c 写作目的题。作者在文章开头直接说明写信的目的“告诉你你的帮助对我的人生是多么重要”;然后描述自己的病情,未了的大学梦,以及收信人开办的网站给作者带来的影响,因此本文的写作目的是c:表明作者对于这个培训中心的感激。i dont think i can recall a time when i wasnt aware of the beauty of the ocean.growing up in australia, i had the good fortune of having the sea at my side.the first time i went to halfmoon bay, i suddenly had the feeling of not being able to feel the ground with my feet anymore.for my 10th birthday, my sister and i were taken out to the great barrier reef.there were fish in different colors, caves and layers of corals.they made such an impression on me.when i learned that only 1 percent of australias coral sea was protected,i was shocked.australian marine(海洋的) life is particularly important because the reefs have more marine species than any other country on earth.but sadly, only 45% of the worlds reefs are considered healthy.this statistic is depressing, so its important for us to do everything to protect them.the hope that the coral sea remains a complete ecosystem has led me to take action.ive become involved with the protect our coral sea activity, which aims to create the largest marine park in the world.it would serve as a place where the oceans species will all have a safe place forever.together, angus and i created a little video and we hope it will inspire people to be a part of the movement.angus also shares many beautiful childhood memories of the ocean as a young boy,who grew up sailing, admiring the beauty of the ocean, and trying to find the secrets of ocean species.语篇导读本文旨在号召人们保护海洋生物。24.from the underlined sentence in paragraph 1, we can learn the author_.a.seldom went surfing at the seab.forgot his experiences about the oceanc.never went back to his hometownd.had a wonderful impression of halfmoon bay解析:d 推理判断题。根据“i dont think i can recall a time when i wasnt aware of the beauty of the ocean”和“i had the good fortune of having the sea at my side”可知,作者喜欢海洋,画线句意为“我突然有了一种不想再踏上陆地的感觉”,说明halfmoon bay给作者留下了一个美好的印象。故选d。25.according to the second paragraph,australian marine life_.a.is escaping from the coral sea graduallyb.depends on reefs for living greatlyc.may be faced with dangerd.is protected better than that in other oceans解析:c 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“australian marine(海洋的)life is particularly important because the reefs have more marine species than any other country on earth.but sadly,only 45% of the worlds reefs are considered healthy”可推知,澳大利亚的海洋生物可能处在危险之中。故选c。26.the protect our coral sea activity is intended to_.a.contribute to a complete ecosystemb.prevent more marine species from being endangeredc.set up a large nature reserve for reefsd.raise more teenagers environmental awareness解析:b 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“which aims to create the largest marine park in the world.it would serve as a place where the oceans species will all have a safe place forever”可知,其目的是保护海洋生物免受危险。故选b。27.angus and the author created a little video to_.a.urge more people to take action to protect the marine speciesb.inspire more people to explore the secret of the oceanc.share their childhood experiences about the oceand.bring back to people their memories of ocean species解析:a 细节理解题。根据最后一段的第一句可知,他们的目的是鼓励人们参与保护海洋生物的行动。故选a。“did you hear what happened to adam last friday?” lindsey whispers to tori.with her eyes shining,tori brags,“you bet i did,sean told me two days ago.”who are lindsey and tori talking about? it just happened to be yours truly, adam freedmam. i can tell you that what they are saying is (a) not nice and (b) not even true.still, lindsey and tori arent very different from most students here at linton high school, including me.many of our conversations are gossip(闲话).i have noticed three effects of gossip: it can hurt people, it can give gossipers a strange kind of satisfaction, and it can cause social pressures in a group.an important negative effect of gossip is that it can hurt the person being talked about.usually,gossip spreads information about a topicbreakups, trouble at home, even dropping outthat a person would rather keep secret.the more embarrassing or shameful the secret is, the juicier the gossip it makes.probably the worst type of gossip is the absolute lie.people often think of gossipers as harmless, but cruel lies can cause pain.if we know that gossip can be harmful, then why do so many of us do it? that answer lies in another effect of gossip: the satisfaction it gives us.sharing the latest rumor(传言)can make a person feel important because he or she knows something that others dont.similarly, hearing the latest rumor can make a person feel like part of the “in group”. in other words, gossip is satisfying because it gives people a sense of belonging or even superiority(优越感).gossip also can have a third effect: it strengthens unwritten,unspoken rules about how people should act.professor david wilson explains that gossip is important in policing behaviors in a group.translated into high school terms,this means that if everybody you hang around with is laughing at what john wore or what jane said, then you can bet that wearing or saying something similar will get you the same kind of negative attention.the dos and donts conveyed through gossip will never show up in any student handbook.the effects of gossip vary depending on the situation.the next time you feel the urge to spread the latest news, think about why you want to gossip and what effects your “juicy story” might have.语篇导读很多人都喜欢背后说人闲话。本文主要介绍了人们说闲话的原因以及说闲话给人们带来的影响。28.the author uses a conversation at the beginning of the passage to_ .a.introduce a topicb.present an argumentc.describe the charactersd.clarify his writing purpose解析:a 推理判断题。根据文章开头的对话内容和下文内容可知,作者使用对话的主要目的在于引出本文的话题“人们为什么喜欢说闲话”,故选a项。29.an important negative effect of gossip is that it_.a.breaks up relationshipsb.embarrasses the listenerc.spreads information aroundd.causes unpleasant experiences解析:d 推理判断题。从文章第三段中的“i have noticed three effects of gossipin a group”和第四段中的“an important negative effect of gossip is thattalked about”可推知,说闲话的一个重要的负面影响是给被别人说闲话的人带来不愉快的体验,所以选d项。30.in the authors opinion,many people like to gossip because it_.a.gives them a feeling of pleasureb.helps them to make more firendsc.makes them better at telling storiesd.enables them to meet important people解析:a 细节理解题。从第三段中的“it can give gossipers a strange kind of satisfaction”和第五段中的“gossip is satisfying because it gives people a sense of belonging”可知,很多人喜欢说闲话是因为他们可以从中获得某种满足感,所以选a项。31.professor david wilson thinks that gossip can_.a.provide students with written rulesb.help people watch their own behaviorsc.force shcools to improve student handbooksd.attract the polices attention to group behaviors解析:b 细节理解题。从全文倒数第二段中的“professor david wilson explains that gossip is important in policing behaviors in a group”可知,说闲话会帮助群体成员观察自身的行为习惯。所以选b项。the character “duang” is so new that it does not even exist in the chinese dictionary.but it has already spread like wildfire online in china, appearing more than 8 million times on chinas microblog site weibo, where it spawned a toptrending hashtag that drew 312,000 discussions among 15,000 users.on chinas biggest online search engine baidu, it has been looked up almost 600,000 times.its been noticed in the west, too.but what does it mean? “everyones duanging and yet i still dont know what it means!looks like its back to school for me,”said weibo user weileiweito.another user asked,“have you duanged today? my mind is full of duang duang duang.”“to duang or not to duang, that is the question,” wrote user baikut automan.“duang”seems to be an example of onomatopoeia(拟声词),a word that phonetically imitates a sound.it all seems to have started with hong kong action star jackie chan, who in 2004 was featured in a shampoo commercial where he said famously to defend for his sleek(光亮的), black hair by using the rhythmicalsounding “duang”.the word resurfaced again recently after chan posted it on his weibo page.thousands of users then began to flood chans weibo page with comments, coining the word in reference to his infamous shampoo appearance.the word appears to have many different meanings, and theres no perfect translation, but you could use it as an adjective to give emphasis to the word that follows it.a kitten might be “duang cute”, for example.or you might be “very duang confused” by thi
