模块综合检测(二)(满分：120分；时间：100分钟).阅读理解(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)AJust a couple of hours ago，I was on the plane，ready to fly home from London.The flight had been delayed by a few hours so it felt good to be so close to takeoff.I had my iPod in place and a new book to read.Then，over the loudspeaker came the pilots voice: “The ground crew has found a metal instrument in one tire.We regret that we must cancel this flight.”The passengers reactions that announcement led to were interesting.One man close to me began to argue with a flight attendant.A couple in another row complained loudly.A businessman in a black suit actually kicked the seat in front of him.Yet some passengers responded differently.An elderly gentleman smiled as he helped others take their bags down from the overhead compartments.A teenager，rather than trying to rush off the plane like most of the other passengers，stopped to help a woman with a disability.The lady sitting next to me laughed and said：“ Hey，its not the end of the world，” before she made a call to her kids and shared her adventure with them.The wisest among us have a remarkable ability to maintain grounded when times get tough.No life is perfect；mine certainly isnt.We all must face challenges，both large and small.You and I have the power to choose to rise above the external circumstances.We always have the choice to be strong and kind when things fall apart.Thats grace under pressure.My seatmate was rightthings could have been so much worse.Anyway，I am sate.I have my health.I have two wonderful children.I have work I love and so much to be grateful for.Sure I now have to wait a few hours to catch the next flight home.【语篇解读】本文是记叙文，讲述了因为航班取消不同乘客的不同反应。1What caused the passengers different reactions?AThe loudspeaker.BThe delay of the flight.CThe

different the suburbs are.In the UK, traditionally, the suburbs are the richest part of a city but here, it is the complete opposite.The schools I teach in are located just outside Paris and are not as wealthy as the ones found in the centre of the city.However, the children that I teach are so eager to learn my language.What I can never forget is the enthusiasm (热情)that these children have about learning English.For my first lesson I brought some postcards and souvenirs to show the children what my hometown is like.They were so excited about my postcard of my towns castle and my souvenir of the Welsh dragon.For us in the UK, a postcard of a castle is not necessarily an exciting thing, but for these children it represented reallife magic and mystery.One of the teachers told me that despite the fact that these children live four kilometres from Paris, some of them have never been there.I represented a chance for them to discover another world.I never realized，until my teaching in France，just how valuable education really is.For these children it represents an opportunity to do something different.It represents hope for their futures.I was truly inspired by the children in my first lessons.During my time in France, I hope that I can bring knowledge of English and help encourage their enthusiasm.【语篇解读】作者来到法国的郊区教英语，她意识到教育对于贫困的孩子们来说是多么重要。5What does the author do in the

in the Parisian suburbs.”可知，作者在巴黎郊区教英语。【答案】B6One thing in France that attracted the authors attention was that .Athe suburbs are poorer than the centre of a cityBpupils had never received postcards beforeCpupils liked reallife magic and mystery very muchDthe Parisian suburbs are richer than the British suburbs【解析】细节理解题。根据第一段“In the UK，traditionally，the suburbs are the richest part of a city but here，it is the complete opposite.”可知，在英国，郊区是城市最富有的地方，但是巴黎正相反。也就是说巴黎的市中心比郊区富有。【答案】A7What impressed the author most in France was .Athe pupils attitude towards learning EnglishBthe pupils poor performance in EnglishCthe enthusiasm of the teachers thereDthe poverty of the suburban schools【解析】细节理解题。根据第二段“.what I can never forget is the enthusiasm(热情) that these children have about learning

has found it really does help people nod offif it is milked from a cow at night.Researchers have discovered that “night milk” contains more melatonin (褪黑激素)，which has been proven to help people feel sleepy and reduce anxiety.The study，by researchers from Seoul，South Korea，involved mice being fed with dried milk powder made from cows milked both during the day and at night.Those given night milk，which contained 10 times the amount of melatonin，were less active and less anxious than those fed with the milk collected during daytime，according to the study published in The Journal of Medicinal Food.Night milk quickened the start of sleep and caused the mice to sleep longer.While the effect of cows milk harvested at different time has not been tested on humans up to now，taking melatonin drugs has been suggested to those who are struggling to fall asleep at night.Previous studies have also indicated that milk can be excellent for helping sleep because of the calcium content，which helps people to relax.Milk is also sugarfree and additivefree with nutritionists recommending skimmed milk as the best choice before bed as it is the least fattening.The more fat you take in before bedtime，the greater burden you will put on your body at night.【语篇解读】本文是一篇议论文。长期以来，人们认为睡觉前喝一杯热牛奶有助于睡眠，但研究表明，只有喝晚上挤的牛奶才真正有助于睡眠。这到底是什么原因呢？快来读文章吧！12According to the text，the mice fed with daytime milk .Astarted sleep more easilyBwere more anxiousCwere less activeDwoke up later【解析】细节理解题。由第四段中的信息Those given night milk.were less active and less anxious than those fed with the milk collected during daytime.可知，老鼠喝了白天挤的牛奶会更有活力，也更焦虑，故选B项。【答案】B13Which of the following is true of melatonin according to the text?AIts been tested on mice for ten times.BIt can make people more energetic.CIt exists in milk in great amount.DIts used in sleeping drugs.【解析】推理判断题。文章中提到晚上挤的牛奶的褪黑激素含量是白天挤的牛奶的10倍，并不是说研究人员在老鼠身上测试了10次，所以A项错误；由第二段中的信息.help people feel sleepy and reduce anxiety.可知褪黑激素不可能使人更加精力充沛，故排除B项；由第二段中的信息.“night milk”contains more melatonin.可知，并不是所有的牛奶中都含有大量的褪黑激素，故排除C项；由第六段中的信息taking melatonin drugs has been suggested to those who are struggling to fall asleep at night可知，褪黑激素被用于安眠药中，故D项正确。【答案】D14What can be a suitable title for the text?ANight Milk and SleepBFat，Sugar and HealthCAn Experiment on MiceDMilk Drinking and Health【解析】标题归纳题。作者在第一段就点明了文章要论述的对象晚上挤的牛奶。在接下来的几段中，作者通过研究人员在老鼠身上做的实验论证了晚上挤出的牛奶与睡眠的关系，所以最适合作文章标题的是A项。B项意为“脂肪、糖与健康”，C项意为“在老鼠身上做的一个实验”，D项意为“牛奶饮用与健康”，均与文章的主旨不符。【答案】A15How does the author support the theme of the text?ABy giving examples.BBy stating arguments.CBy explaining statistical data.DBy providing research results.【解析】推理判断题。文章的第二、三、四、五段都是讲研究人员的实验及其结果，所以作者是用研究人员的研究结果来支持论点的。文章中没有给出具体的例子，没有单纯地陈述论点，也没有解释统计数据，所以排除A、B、C三项，选D项。【答案】D.阅读七选五(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)Losing weight is tough.For most people，it requires a
