Unit 24 Society课时练12篇阅读1篇完形.阅读理解A(2020北京昌平区五校联考)A simple project to help a family in need stopped Luke Mickelson in his tracks. In 2012, he and his family were inspired to build and donate a bunk bed, one bed on top of the other, after learning there were local children who slept on the floor. Shocked to discover how widespread this need was in his community, Mickelson founded Sleep in Heavenly Peace, a nonprofit that builds and delivers beds to children in need.Born and raised in Idaho, Mickelson, now 41, had a thriving career. He coached his kids sports teams and fished in the nearby river. But when he met children who were sleeping on the floor, his peaceful life changed course.Using safety guidelines and his daughters bunk bed as a model, Mickelson started buying wood and supplies to build beds with his own money. He recruited friends and family members to help around the holidays. As the word spread, interest and involvement from his and other communities floodedalong with Mickelsons bunk bed output. “That first project, we built 11 bunk beds in my garage,” he said. “The next year, we did 15. Then it doubled every year. In 2017, we built 612 bunk beds.”With the motto “No kid sleeps on the floor in our town”, the nonprofit and its more than 65 branches have built and delivered more than 1,500 free beds to children across America. But along with the rapid growth, Mickelson was faced with a tough choice: advancing his career or his nonprofit. He chose the latter and went from making “great money to zero money”. Hes never looked back. “I found that the need I have isnt financial,” he said. “The need I have is seeing the joy on kids faces, knowing that I can make a difference.”【解题导语】本文是一篇记叙文。Mickelson为了让自己社区的无床可睡的孩子们能够有床睡觉,成立了一个公益组织“Sleep in Heavenly Peace”。1Why did Mickelson set up Sleep in Heavenly Peace?ATo help the poor children.BTo make a big fortune.CTo inspire his community.DTo get more donations.A解析:细节理解题。根据文章的第一段,尤其是最后一句中的“Mickelson founded Sleep in Heavenly Peace, a nonprofit that builds and delivers beds to children in need”可知,Mickelson创建这个非营利组织是为了帮助贫困儿童。2What do we know about Luke Mickelson?AHe had his own fish farm.BHe changed his career from time to time.CHe used to sleep on the floor when he was a kid.DHe originally had a relaxing and pleasant life.D解析:推理判断题。根据文章的第二段,尤其是最后一句“But when he met children who were sleeping on the floor, his peaceful life changed course.”可推知,Mickelson一开始过着轻松、舒适的生活。3How did other people react to Mickelsons project?AThey showed little interest in it.BThey were supportive and involved in it.CThey were doubtful about the safety of the bunk bed.DThey volunteered to buy beds with their own money.B解析:细节理解题。根据第三段中的“He recruited friends and family members to help around the holidays. As the word spread, interest and involvement from his and other communities flooded”可知,Mickelson的朋友和其他家庭成员都来帮忙,随着消息的传播,更多人参与进来。由此可知,人们对Mickelson创建的这个组织非常支持,并且积极参与。4What is Mickelsons attitude to the nonprofit?AAmbiguous.BDefensive.CCautious. DPositive.D解析:观点态度题。根据文章最后一段,尤其是“The need I have.make a difference.”可知,Mickelson想要看到孩子们脸上的喜悦,他知道他在做一些有影响的事。由此可推知,他对这个组织持积极的态度。B(2020大连一模)It is generally acknowledged that young people from poorer socioeconomic backgrounds tend to do less well in the education system. In an attempt to help the children of poor families, a nationwide program called “Head Start” was started in the US in 1965. A lot of money was poured into it. It took children into preschool institutions at the age of three and was supposed to help them succeed in school. But the results have been disappointing, because the program began too late. Many children who entered it at three were already behind their peers in language and intelligence and the parents were not involved in the process. At the end of each day, “Head Start” children returned to the same disadvantaged home environment.To improve the results, another program was started in Missouri that concentrated on parents as the childs first teachers. This program was based on research showing that working with the family is the most effective way of helping children get the best possible start in life. The fouryear study included 380 families who were about to have their first child and represented different socioeconomic statuses, ages and family structures. The program involved trained educators visiting and working with the parent or parents and the child. The program also gave the parents some guidance, and useful skills on child development.At three, the children involved in the “Missouri” program were evaluated with the children selected from the same socioeconomic backgrounds and family situations. The results were obvious. The children in the program were more advanced in language development, problem solving and other intellectual skills than their peers. They performed equally well regardless of socioeconomic backgrounds or family structures. The one factor that was found to affect the childs development was the poor quality of parentchild interaction. That interaction was not necessarily bad in poorer families.The “Missouri” program compares quite distinctly with the “Head Start” program. Without a similar focus on parent education and on the vital importance of the first three years, some evidence indicates that it will not be enough to overcome educational unfairness.【解题导语】本文主要通过对比两项侧重点不同的教育项目表明,要实现教育公平就应该关注对父母的教育,使其与孩子之间进行高品质互动,并且意识到孩子出生后前三年的重要性。5What caused the failure of the “Head Start” program?AThe large number of poor families.BThe disapproval from children.CThe late start of the program.DThe long period of time.C解析:细节理解题。根据第一段第五句“But the results have been disappointing, because the program began too late.”可知,Head Start项目的失败是因为其开始得太晚了。6What do we know about the “Missouri” program?AIt focused on the childrens first school teachers.BIt helped the children return to the same home.CIt made the children improved in many aspects.DIt gave the parents advice on their development.C解析:推理判断题。根据第三段第三句“The children in the program were more advanced in language development, problem solving and other intellectual skills than their peers.”可推知,Missouri项目让参与的孩子们在许多方面都有改善。7According to the passage, what is likely to influence childrens performance?AThe number of family members.BThe parentchild communication.CThe intelligence of their parents.DThe teacherstudent relationship.B解析:细节理解题。根据第三段倒数第二句“The one factor that was found to affect the childs development was the poor quality of parentchild interaction.”可知,父母和孩子之间的交流质量是影响孩子发展的因素之一。故选B。8How does the author develop the passage?ABy listing figures.BBy making comparisons.CBy presenting ideas.DBy drawing conclusions.B解析:篇章结构题。通读全文内容可知,本文是通过对比两个侧重点不同的教育项目, 从而组织文章的,故选B。.完形填空(2020安庆高三模拟)Steve was a seventh grader, a big boy, looking more like a teenager than a 12yearold.

When asked why they lack interest in family medicine, the students cite(援引) a heavy student debt load and the long hours required of a doctor who is managing the family practice. As in other kinds of work, young doctors today want a balance between their professional and personal lives.In British Columbia(BC) this problem is made worse because the province produces fewer medical graduates for each person than any other province in Canada. The provincial government has committed itself to doubling the number of medical student graduates. This strategy doesnt come close to giving us the new doctors needed each year in BC to replace those who are retiring, moving out of the province, reducing their hours of practice, or dying.The primary care system is showing its cracks. Ten years ago, 2,030 of BCs family doctors were providing obstetrical(产科的) care. Today just 945 are performing this invaluable service. Although delivering babies is a “good news” area of medicine, the hours are long, but the reward for bringing new life into the world is modest. Its no surprise, then, that many of BCs family doctors are no longer taking on new patients. In 1999, there were 1,420 family doctors accepting new patientsin 2004 that number declined to 599, a drop of 58%.The foundation of primary care needs to be strengthened. The Working Agreement between the doctors and the government includes a series of primary care renewal projects designed to make the family practice more attractive to medical graduates, improve upon working conditions, and entice family doctors from outside BC to start their business here. Yet still more needs to be done.【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了加拿大家庭医生严重缺乏的问题。1What makes medical students unwilling to be family physicians?AThe student debt and long working hours.BLong term of study at a medical school.CA limited number of places in the medical school.DAn increasing number of patients and long waiting lists for specialists.A解析:细节理解题。根据第二段第二句“When asked why they lack interest in family medicine, the students cite (援引) a heavy student debt load and the long hours required of a doctor who is managing the family practice.”可知,学生债务负担和工作时间长成为阻碍医科学生选择成为家庭医生的两大障碍,故选A。2What does the text say about family doctors in BC?AThey are no longer needed.BThey are too few in number.CThey will soon become abundant.DThey are rapidly leaving the province.B解析:细节理解题。根据第四段第二、三句“Ten years ago, 2,030 of BCs family doctors were providing obstetrical(产科的) care. Today just 945 are performing this invaluable service.”,并结合本段最后一句“In 1999, there were 1,420 family doctors accepting new patientsin 2004 that number declined to 599, a drop of 58%.”可知,在BC,家庭医生的数量在急剧下降,缺口很大,故选B。3Which can replace the underlined word “entice” in the last paragraph?AForbid.BHire.CRemind. DAttract.D解析:词义猜测题。根据最后一段第二句中的关键词“attractive”和“improve”可推知,画线词在此处的含义与D项“吸引”相近,故选D。4What is the primary purpose of the text?ATo show sympathy for family doctors.BTo inspire young people to be family doctors.CTo stress the urgent need of more family doctors.DTo tell the disadvantages of being family doctors.C解析:写作意图题。根据第一段的点题,并结合全文的内容可推知,本文主要介绍了加拿大家庭医生严重缺乏的问题,故选C。B(2020长春高三质量监测)Many people find that music lifts their spirits. Now a new study shows that music therapy can be a useful treatment for depression.The finding that music therapy offers a real medical benefit to depression sufferers comes from a review by Cochrane, a nonprofit group that reviews health care issues. Some studies looked at the effects of providing music therapy to patients who were receiving drug treatment for depression. Others compared music therapy to traditional talk therapy. In four out of five of the trials, music therapy worked better at easing depression symptoms than therapies that did not employ music, the researchers found.“While the evidence came from a few small studies, it suggests that this is an area that is well worth further investigation,” said lead author Anna Maratos. Ms. Maratos notes that music therapy might be particularly useful for adolescents who may reject a traditional form of counseling. Some older patients also may not be comfortable talking about their feelings but do tend to express themselves through songs.There are two main types of music therapy. Sometimes, a therapist will listen to music with a patient and talk about the feelings or memories that it arouses. In another form, the therapist is a skilled musician and will improvise(即兴创作) music with the patient. If the patient doesnt play an instrument, he or she might be given a simple percussion instrument(打击乐器) and the therapist will play along.Other studies have shown a benefit from music therapy in the treatment for dementia, learning disabilities, strokes and pain management during labor(分娩). The problem is that there isnt very much highquality research.“It doesnt easily attract serious research funding. Its difficult to do highquality, largescale trials,” said Ms. Maratos.【解题导语】一项新的研究表明,音乐有助于治疗抑郁症。它比药物治疗和谈心疗法在减轻抑郁症症状上更有效果,对痴呆、学习障碍、中风等治疗也有益处。但由于缺乏大量研究资金支持,研究人员在音乐疗法的疗效方面无法进行高质量、大规模的研究。5Which of the following treatments is NOT mentioned in the research?ADrug treatment.BTalk therapy.CMusic therapy. DPlay therapy.D解析:细节理解题。根据第二段中的“who were receiving drug treatment for depression.traditional talk therapy.music therapy worked better”可知,研究中未提到游戏疗法,故选D项。6Whats the attitude of Anna Maratos to music therapy?APositive. BNegative.CIndifferent. DNeutral.A解析:观点态度题。根据第三段的内容可知,Anna Maratos认为音乐疗法值得深入研究,它对于青少年和一些年龄较大的病人来说可能更有用。故选A项。7According to the passage, music therapy might not be beneficial to a patient of _Adepression Blearning disabilitiesCheart attacks DstrokesC解析:细节理解题。根据最后一段第一句可知,其他研究表明,音乐疗法在治疗痴呆症、学习障碍、中风和分娩期间的疼痛管理方面也有益处,并结合上文提到的用音乐疗法治疗抑郁症可知,选项A、B、D与文意相符。文章没有提到其对治疗心脏病的益处,故选C项。8We can learn from the passage that _Aa middleaged patient wont benefit from music therapyBpatients using music therapy must be able to play an instrumentConly patients suffering from depression benefit from music therapyDhighquality research on the effects of music therapy is limited by fundingD解析:推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“It doesnt easily attract serious research funding. Its difficult to do highquality, largescale
