unit 3 a taste of english humour(建议用时：50分钟).阅读理解a(2020贵阳高三摸底)as the old saying goes, “dont judge a book by its cover.” and neither should we judge movie stars by their ages.at just 21, elle fanning made history by becoming the youngest jury(评审团) member at the cannes film festival. this year it lasted from may 14th to may 25th. “i was in complete shock when i got that phone call and that question if i wanted to be a member of the cannes jury，” fanning said during a press conference.as it turned out, it not only shocked the us actress，but also brought criticism from those who believed fanning was too young compared to other veterans in the industry. but fannings acting experience was in fact a good argument for her jury membership. in fact, fanning has been a hollywood fixture for longer than you realize.the 21yearold has been in many big productions. she began acting in i am sam at age 3. with lead roles in movies like super 8, we bought a zoo and maleficent under her belt, shes appeared in 60 projects and is one of hollywoods hottest young stars. fannings devotion to work numbers her among the few former child stars who continue to act as adults.in her latest movie teen spirit, which hit us cinemas last month, fanning plays a pop singer. since she had no singing experience, fanning had to work with grammywinning music producer marius de vries for three months before the filming started. “i would go to his apartment and sing through all the songs every day，” she said. “he videoed me and recorded me singing everything and made me watch it back again and again to improve my skills.”with such rich acting experience and devotion to her art, fanning certainly was able to “represent a new class in film” at the cannes film festival.【解题导语】21岁的艾丽范宁成为戛纳电影节历史上年龄最小的评审团成员。凭借丰富的表演经验和对艺术的热爱，范宁无疑能够在戛纳电影节上“代表电影界的一个新阶层”。这告诉我们不要以年龄来评价电影明星。1what does the underlined word “veterans” probably mean?ashocked actresses. bgreen

thursday morning, a handful of kids were selling carrots and peppers. the children are members of weworks first school, wegrow, where farming is part of the curriculum. they were interacting with wegrow employees browsing the goods. “how many carrots would you like？” one girl asked. “we take apple pay，” another shouted.founded in 2010, wework has made a name for itself as a global network of coworking spaces. wegrow is weworks newest enterprise(事业) and its first attempt in the education industry. wegrow, a school which claims to grow “conscious leaders”， is inspired by the montessori approach to learning that gives children the freedom to explore and choose their activities, so their nature of creativity and curiosity is preserved. but the goal is not to create nextgeneration ceos. “leadership is a bit of an exciting word for people，” said rebekah, wegrows founder and ceo. “weve seen children do such a thing foreverrunning a lemonade stand every time, thats what that is.”wegrow opened in the fall last year. currently, 46 kids are enrolled in classes from prekindergarten to fourth grade. the kids start every morning with live music, followed by yoga. they spend time in nature and choose to take either hebrew or mandarin courses. wegrow students learn science, math, social studies and language arts. it also has a program for kids to connect with wework community members with careers in areas kids might be interested in. but the main concern is that standardized tests are not available to measure the students overall progress.they want to create an environment where people can work to make a life and not just a living, but thats part of a larger mission to raise the worlds awareness towards creating a world where people are happy and fulfilled and living in a sharing state.【解题导语】本文主要介绍了wework开设的第一所学校wegrow的相关情况，包括其办校宗旨、学习内容等。5what do we know about wegrow from the text?ait was founded in 2010.bit is intended for gifted kids.cit aims to

is preserved”可知，wegrow给了孩子们探索和选择活动的自由，从而保护他们的创造力和好奇心的本性。故选c项。6which of the following reflects the montessori approach?aall kids learn to run the lemonade stand.bstudents are allowed to establish markets in the yard.cthe school committee arranges students activities.dstudents work hard academically to become ceos.b解析：推理判断题。根据第一段的第一、二句和第三段第一句中的“is inspired by the montessori approach to learning.their activities”可推知，学生们被允许在院子里设立市场可以反映出montessori方法。故选b项。7why is it hard to measure students progress?abecause there are so many courses.bbecause the students are of a wide age range.cbecause standardized tests have limitations.dbecause the school lacks professional testers.c解析：推理判断题。根据第四段最后一句“but the main concern is that standardized tests are not available to measure the students overall progress.”可知，主要的担忧是，标准化考试无法衡量学生的整体进步。据此可推知，因为标准化考试有一定的局限性，所以很难衡量学生的进步。故选c项。8what can be a suitable title for the text?aa farmingfeatured schoolban educationbased businesscgrow to be a

children the freedom to explore and choose their activities, so their nature of creativity and curiosity is preserved.分析：so引导结果状语从句，which claims to grow “conscious leaders”为which引导的定语从句，修饰先行词a school。译文：wegrow是一所声称培养“有意识的领导者”的学校，受montessori学习方法的启发，这种学习方法给孩子们探索和选择他们的活动的自由，从而保护他们的创造力和好奇心的本性。.完形填空(2020济南高三质检)when i was young, my understanding of life was simple. this made it _1_ for me to deal
