单元过关检测(三)(时间：100分钟，满分：120分)第一部分阅读理解(共两节，满分40分)第一节(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。AOn her first day teaching students from poor families at an afterschool program in New York City, Alyssa Kapasi noticed how many kids were lining up for free sandwiches and fruit in the school cafeteria.One of the workers explained that many of these students dont get enough to eat at home, so a school lunch or an afterschool meal might be the most food they would get all day.Kapasi, who attends private school, was very surprised. Whats more, she made up her mind to help.“I want other kids to understand that if you see a problem, you dont have to wait to grow up to fix it，”says Kapasi. She and a group of friends are now putting their programming skills to work to create an app called Food for Thought, which will allow parents, students, and even kindhearted strangers to donate to a lunch account for a student in need at a nearby school.About 20 million American kids receive free lunches. Two million more can have lowprice meals, and those students families have to pay for part of their food. When they dont have the money on any given day，the students might have to settle_for an “alternative(可代替的) meal”such as a cheese sandwich.The appwhich is getting financial(财政的) support from a GoFundMe pageprovides anonymity(匿名)to those who receive lunch and donors.To receive help，a family will need only a recommendation(推荐) from a school teacher, and no one else has to know.“I want to make an app that all users feel no shame in using，”says Kapasi. She hopes to test the app in a school district this fall.【解题导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了美国纽约市一名叫Alyssa Kapasi的女孩设计了一款应用程序来解决贫困家庭学生的饥饿问题。1Why does Kapasi want to create an app?ATo teach kids how to help others.BTo practise her programming skills.CTo introduce her school to the public.DTo solve the problem of hunger in schools.D解析：推理判断题。第一段介绍了Kapasi设计应用程序的缘由她看到许多在学校餐厅排队领取免费食物的孩子，并了解到很多孩子在家吃不饱；再由第二段中的she made up her mind to help.to work to create an app called Food for Thought 可知，她致力于解决来自贫困家庭的学生的饥饿问题。2What does the underlined phrase “settle for” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?ABuy.BMake.CAccept.DOffer.C解析：词义猜测题。由前文中的About 20 million American kids receive free lunches. Two million more can have lowprice meals.可知，本段介绍了美国孩子享受免费或者低价午餐的情况。对于那些没有钱支付低价午餐的孩子，他们可以得到诸如奶酪三明治之类的食物来替代午餐。3What should a family do if they want to get help from Food for Thought?AVisit a GoFundMe page.BGet in touch with Kapasi.CBe recommended by teachers.DDonate something else instead.C解析：细节理解题。由倒数第二段中的To receive help, a family will need only a recommendation(推荐) from a school teacher可知，想要获得Food for Thought帮助的家庭，只需被学校老师推荐即可。4What can we infer about the users of Kapasis app?AThey wont lose face in using it.BThey will make money by using it.CThey will know who offers them help.DThey wont meet their donors until this fall.A解析：推理判断题。由倒数第二段中的The vides anonymity(匿名) to those who receive lunch and donors和最后一段中的I want to make an app that all users feel no shame in using可知，该应用软件提供匿名服务，这样不会让使用者丢面子。BThere have been big changes in the attitudes of most parents over the last few years.Physical punishment is banned(被禁止) in schools in most countries, and in many countries, there are moves to ban all physical punishment of children even at home.However, many parents still believe that they have the right to use some physical punishments to deal with certain misbehavior at certain ages.Its easy to find reasons to allow some physical punishments.One issue is that many parents find it very difficult to give up physical punishment completely.Parents argue that this was the way they were brought up and that it didnt do any harm to them.They believe that for the childs sake they have the right to discipline (惩罚) the child in any way they consider fit, including using some physical punishments.The other one is that physical punishment can be quick and effective.There is not much point reasoning with a screaming child in the supermarket.However, there are several reasons why we should stop using physical punishment.One point is that most parents are not trained to deal with misbehaving children.They dont have enough resources or choices to handle the situation.As a result, they immediately react by hitting the child even if there are other solutions to the problem.Another point is that unless people are challenged or forced to change their belief, they may keep following negative habits.An example is seat belt use now most people wear seat belts without thinking, while years ago the idea of using seat belts was strange to most people.In the same way, banning physical punishment will force people to change their habits.In conclusion, parents have to change some of their belief and ideas about how children should be raised.It is possible to avoid the use of physical force, and doing so will help us move closer to the dream of removing violence from our society.【解题导语】本文是一篇介绍说明文。文章介绍了家长体罚孩子的原因，并呼吁家长改变管教孩子的观念、放弃对孩子的体罚。5According to the first paragraph, many parents think that _Amost of the children behave badly in their daily lifeBthey have changed their attitudes towards their childrenCphysical punishment is effective to educate their children Dthey are free to use physical punishment on their childrenD解析：细节理解题。根据第一段中的“However, many parents still believe that they have the right to use some physical punishments to deal with certain misbehavior at certain ages.”可知，虽然体罚被禁止，但是还有一些家长仍然认为他们有权利使用一些体罚去惩罚孩子们的不合理的表现。故选D。6Many parents wont give up physical punishment because _Athey are disappointed with their childrenBthey dont want to hurt their children badlyCthey were brought up just in the same way Dthey dont know what to do with their childrenC解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Parents argue that this was the way they were brought up and that it didnt do any harm to them.”可知，家长们没有放弃体罚，是因为他们就是这样被抚养长大的，而且这些体罚并没有给他们带来任何的伤害。故选C。7The author gives the example of using seat belts in order to show _Amost people are used to wearing seat belts Bpeople wont change their old habits unless forced Cseat belts are really very necessary and usefulDits not difficult to change some negative habitsB解析：细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Another point is that unless people are challenged or forced to change their belief, they may keep following negative habits.”及“In the same way, banning physical punishment will force people to change their habits.”可推知，除非人们被挑战或者被强迫改变他们的信念，否则他们也许还会保持那些消极的习惯，所以禁止体罚将迫使人们改变他们的习惯。故选B。8The main purpose of the author in writing this passage is to _Atalk about a ban on using physical punishmentBtell us we should educate our children in other waysCadvise parents to give up using physical punishmentDsuggest physical punishment should be used at homeC解析：写作意图题。根据最后一段指出，家长应该改变管教孩子的观念，最起码可以不使用暴力，这样可以使我们距离构建无暴力社会的梦又近了一步。由此可知，作者在建议家长放弃体罚。故选C。CYou wake up in the morning, the day is beautiful and the plans for the day are what you have been looking forward to for a long time.Then the telephone rings, you say hello, and the drama starts.The person on the other end has a depressing(令人沮丧的) tone in his voice as he starts to tell you how terrible his morning is and that there is nothing to look forward to.You are still in a wonderful mood? Impossible!Communicating with negative(消极的) people can wash out your happiness.It may not change what you think, but communicating long enough with them will make you feel depressed for a moment or a long time.Life brings ups and downs, but some people are stuck in the wrong idea that life has no happiness to offer.They only feel glad when they make others feel bad.No wonder they can hardly win others pity or respect.When you communicate with positive(积极的) people, your spirit stays happy and therefore more positive things are attracted.When the dagger(匕首) of a negative person is put in you, you feel the heavy feeling that, all in all, brings you down.Sometimes we have no choice but to communicate with negative people.This could be a coworker, or relative.In this case, say what needs to be said as little as possible.Sometimes it feels good to let out your anger back to a negative person, but all this is to lower you to that same negative level and they wont feel ashamed of themselves about that.Negativity often affects happiness without even being realized.The negative words of another at the start of the day can cling to(附着) you throughout the rest of your day, which makes you feel bad and steals your happiness.Life is too short to feel negative.Stay positive and avoid negativity as much as possible.【解题导语】本文介绍了同消极的人和积极的人交往的不同之处。9How can negative people have an effect on us?ABy telling us the nature of life.BBy influencing our emotion.CBy comparing their attitude to life with ours.DBy changing our way of thinking.B解析：细节理解题。根据文中第一、二段可得知， 与消极的人交谈会使自己感到郁闷， 所以消极的人是会影响到我们的情绪和情感的。10Some negative people base their happiness on _Aother peoples pity for themBbuilding up a positive attitudeCmaking other people unhappyDother peoples respect for themC解析：细节理解题。从第三段的“They only feel glad when they make others feel bad.” 可推断出消极的人是把自己的快乐建立在别人的痛苦之上。11According to the passage, to reduce negative peoples influence on us, we are advised _Ato change negative peoples attitude to lifeBto show our dissatisfaction to negative peopleCto communicate with negative people as little as possibleDto make negative people feel ashamed of themselvesC解析：细节理解题。根据倒数第二段的In this case, say what needs to be said as little as possible.得出答案选C。DThe ships and life jackets(救生衣) were ready.Now I just had to wait for my little brother，Daniel.His lungs had only 40 percent of the breathing capacity(量)of an ordinary teenage boy.Every morning，evening and night，he did some breathing treatments.Daniel was fourteenonly four years younger than mebut I made it my business to look out for him.Friends who were coughing had to stay away until they were well.If not，it would mean a trip to the hospital if Daniel caught a cold.Many people said I was overprotective，but I knew it was my responsibility to keep him healthy.I was like Daniels guardian angel(守护神)，though he probably didnt know it.I climbed into my seat and waited.When he was breathing better，we made our way past the cliffs(峭壁) that lined the shore.Cliffs rose on either side of us，the water breaking against them.The ocean was mad，but it was no trouble for us with rowing(划桨)experience.We felt surprised at the beauty of the sceneclear blue sky and calm breeze.“Whoa，” Daniel said，looking up.In minutes the blue sky became windy and dark.Waves hit the shore and our ships went up and down in the wave.I looked back at Daniel to make sure he was okay and he was.I got a bit too close to a rock on my left side.But before I could move away，a strong wave swept up my ship and pushed me toward the very rock I was trying to avoid.I tried to slow down and keep my balance.But I was headed right for the rock! Suddenly，my ship was ripped(裂开)by the rock from under me.I fell into the water.Everything was white.After my head broke the surface，I looked around but my ship was nowhere to be seen.The waves were too strong.I could hardly move.The water pulled me and pushed me at its will.I could see my brother 30 yards away.He was just away from the dangerous white water and rocks，still upright，in his ship.If he came closer，he would fall into the water，too.He wouldnt have the strength to fight.But Daniel was already on his way，rowing as fast as he could.I caught hold of the back of his ship.Breathing hard，Daniel pulled me toward the ship.He struggled and could hardly breathe but kept rowing.Finally my feet touched the shore.It took Daniel a while to get his breath back.We shared a quick hug and we both lay on the shore.Looking at Daniel，I thought of something.12We can learn from the first paragraph that Daniel _Ahas known that his brother will protect himBwill soon go to hospital Cis well protected by his old brotherDhad his lungs operated onC解析：细节理解题。从第一段“Many people said I was overprotective，but I knew it was my responsibility to keep him healthy.”中可选出答案，其余均没有依据。13According to the passage，the author and Daniel _Awere both good at rowingBboth did well in swimmingCwere disappointed at the viewDplanned to climb the cliffsA解析：细节理解题。从第二段“I climbed into my seat and waited.”可知兄弟俩在船上，以及“but it was no trouble for us with rowing(划桨)experience.”可知两人擅长划船。14Why was the authors ship broken? ABecause his falling down in the ship made the ship break.BBecause a strong wind made his ship turn over in water.CBecause his ship knocked into the shore on his left side.DBecause his ship hit a rock as a result of a strong wave.D解析：细节理解题。从第四段“I got a bit too close to a rock on my left side.But before I could move away，a strong wave swept up my ship and pushed me toward the very rock I was trying to avoid.”可知作者的船撞到了礁石上。15We can learn from the last paragraph that _Athe author also had a guardian angel, his brotherBa friend in need is a friend indeedCrich rowing experience is importantDthe author had the responsibility to protect DanielA解析：细节理解题。第一段中作者极力要保护弟弟，而最后三段却描写了弟弟保护了哥哥，致使作者的思想发生了变化。第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。How to Celebrate World Environment DayWorld Environment Day is a yearly event held to raise global sense of the need to protect our world.16._ People consider it a climax(高潮) of environmental activities being performed all year round by UNEP.Be a part of the celebrations to make our world cleaner, greener and brighter.Find out what the WED environmental theme is internationally for the year.For example, in 2011, it is the international Year of the Forest, thus a front page focus on forests and trees on the site.If the theme inspires you, consider planning your event around the theme.17._Check out the activities that are already planned in your area, region or country.You might like to join in what has been planned, or even help out if youre early enough to become a part of the volunteers for the event.18._Consider holding your own WED event.19._ You could enthuse your neighbourhood street, your friends, your local community, your school, a group of businesses or the media to become involved too.20_ Do a study of your energy usage, your living habits and your use of unsustainable(不可持续的) products and make a list of ways you intend to control your unsustainable activities and habits and replace them with sustainable ones.AYou will expect extra exciting activities.BUse the Internet to search for WED events near you.CIf you dont mind a little planning and effort, why not organize your own?DMake today that you choose to adopt an ecofriendly lifestyle.ECheck out which country is the host country for WED.FIf you have another environmental theme that youre really into, thats okay too!GKnown as WED for short, it is run by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP)【解题导语】本文主要讲述如何响应国际环境日，对进行什么环保活动给出建议。16G解析：空格上文讲述为了唤起人们保护世界的意识，世界环境日每年举行。空格下文讲述人们认为世界环境日是联合国环境规划署全年举行的环境活动的高潮。因此推断空格处选G项“它简称为WED，它是由联合国环境规划署运行的”符合语境，此处it指世界环境日。故选G。17F解析：本段建议要了解国际环境保护日的主题。空格上文阐述如果这个主题鼓舞你，那么考虑围绕主题规划你的庆祝活动，因此推断空格处选F项“如果你有喜欢的环保主题，也是好的”符合语境。故选F。18B解析：本段建议你核查一下你的地区或者国家已经有什么计划。空格上文阐述你可能想要参加某个计划，或者作为志愿者帮忙，因此推断空格处选B项“使用网络搜索你附近举行的国际环境日活动”符合语境。故选B。19C解析：本段建议你考虑举行你自己的环境日活动。空格下文讲述你可以让你的社区，你的朋友，你的学校，或者媒体等都参与，因此推断空格处选C项“如果你不介意一点点的规划和努力，为什么不自己组织自己的活动”符合语境。故选C。20D解析：空格处是本段标题。本段主要阐述研究你的能源使用情况，你的生活习惯和不能持续产品的使用情况，列出你打算控制使用的可持续能源代替不可替代能源的方法名单。因此推断本段建议让今天成为你采用环保生活方式的开始。故选D。第二部分语言知识运用(共两节，满分45分)第一节(共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分)阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。Two months ago we were staying in the city of Hyderabad for a holiday.
