2.Seeing考查非谓语动词。句意:看到太阳从海面上升起,我们大声欢呼。see与主语we之间是逻辑上的主谓关系,因此用动词-ing形式作状语。3.wasappointed考查时态和语态。句意:去年,她被任命为新部门的总经理。根据时间状语Lastyear可知,此处用一般过去时,根据句意可知,此处表示"被任命",故用一般过去时的被动语态。4.explosion考查词形转换。句意:调查人员说可能是燃料爆炸导致了飞机失事。由空前的a可知,空处应填名词explosion。5.totake考查urge的用法。句意:父母应该积极敦促他们的孩子利用这个机会参加户外活动。urgesb.todosth.意为"敦促某人做某事",故空处应填totake。

6.division考查名词。句意:很明显,这条河是这座城市新旧区域的分界线。根据空前的the和句意可知此处用名词,division在句中表示"分界线"。7.burning考查非谓语动词。句意:当我瞥向窗外时,我突然看到远处那座古老的塔楼正在燃烧。根据句意可知,此处表示"看到古老的塔楼正在燃烧",故用动词-ing形式作宾补。（三）、翻译句子1.Itisnotwhatwedoonceinawhilebutwhatwedoconsistentlythat2.asifnothinghadhappened3.solongasyoupromisetobeback4.Astheycrossedthebridge5.IfIhadachancetogotothemoon,I'djumpatit二、能力提升阅读理解1.B考查细节理解。根据文章第一段中的"Whensunlightreachesthem,theyproducechemicalreactionsthatpushthemthroughwaterinaspecificdirection"可知,微型机器人是以阳光作为动力的。故选B。

2.C考查细节理解。文章第二段主要介绍了微塑料分布广泛,甚至出现在饮用水中,并且其数量巨大,来源广泛。由此可知,第二段重点讲了微塑料污染问题的严重性。故选C。3.A考查细节理解。根据文章第三段中的"therobotsreducedtheweightoftheplastics...Butthatwasanindicationthattheywerebreakingtheplasticsdown"可知微型机器人减少了塑料的重量。故选A。

4.C考查主旨大意。本文主要介绍了捷克化学家为了应对日益严重的微塑料污染问题发明的微型机器人。因此C项最适合作为本文的标题。UNIT1能力提升强化练Ⅰ.阅读理解A(浙江嘉兴高二上期末)Trickortreat!WithHalloweenaroundthecorner,kidsareabouttocollectbagsfullofcandy,includingchocolate.Meanwhile,agroupofresearchersintheNetherlandshavebeenexperimentingwithamethodtomakechocolatemoreofa“treat”thanever.Whilechocolateisdeliciousformanyreasons,thisstudyfocusedonhowitcrackswhenitisbitten.CorentinCoulais,theresearcherteachingphysicsattheUniversityofAmsterdamsays,“Tobetterhowitfeelsinthemouth,wegave‘geometry(几何学)’tochocolate,whichwouldthenchangethewayitbreaks.”Givingit“geometry”involvedusinga3Dprintertoproducedarkchocolateinvariousways.Ratherthancreatingaflat,solidpiece,themachineprinteditintoasimpleS-shape,orzigzaggedsuper-thinlayersback-and-forthseveraltimes,orintoincreasinglycomplicatedspirals(螺旋形).Theresultingpieceswerefedto10eagervolunteers.Itturnedoutthatthecrunchiest(最松脆的)—whileremainingeasytobite—wasthechocolateshapedintofairlycomplicatedspirals.Itwasalsothetoptastingexperience.Theresearchersalsousedamachinetocrackthevariousshapesandseewhichwasthecrunchiest.Plus,theyrecordedthesoundsofthecracking,becauseapleasurableeatingexperiencedoesn’tonlytakeplaceinthemouth,butcanbeaffectedbythenoisesinyourhead.Thegeneralwinnerremainedthatspiral.“It’stooearlytosaywhetherchocolatewillsoonbemadedifferently,”Coulaissays.Heisworkingwithacoupleoforganizationstoseehowitmightbeappliedinmaterialsotherthanchocolate—onesthatmightbeusedinvehicles,forexample,tomakethemlessdangerouswhentheycrash.Understandingcrackingcouldmakelifesafer—incarsorairplanesorwearinghelmets.ItcouldalsomakethoseHalloweentreatseventastier.1.Howdoestheauthorintroducethetopicofthetext?A.Bydiscussingacase.B.Bymakingaprediction.C.Bypresentingascene.D.Byexplainingaphenomenon.2.Whatisthefunctionofthe3Dprinterusedintheexperiment?A.Toexplorethewaychocolatebreaks.B.Tocreatechocolateinvariousshapes.C.Toimprovethechocolatetastingexperience.D.Torecordthesoundsofchocolatecracking.3.WhatdoesCoulaismostexpectafterthestudy?A.TheattractionofHalloweentreats.B.Thechangeinchocolateproduction.C.Thegrowingawarenessofdrivingsafety.D.Theapplicationofthefindingsinotherfields.4.Whatisasuitabletitleforthetext?A.Geometrymakesatastierchocolate.B.Complicatedspiralsarethechampion.C.Aknowledgeofcrackingmattersalot.D.Thecrunchiestchocolateisnewlyborn.B(江苏常州八校期中联考)Microsoftwon’trenewthecontractsfordozensofnewsproductioncontractorsworkingatitsMSNwebsiteandplanstouseAItoreplacethem.Theroughly50employeeswereinformedthattheirserviceswouldnolongerbeneededbeyondJune30,butateamoffull-timejournalistswillremain.TheMicrosoftspokesmansaidinastatement,“Likeallcompanies,weanalyzeandmakejudgmentsonouractivitiesandservicesonaregularbasis.Thiscanresultinincreasedinvestmentinsomeplacesand,fromtimetotime,rearrangementinothers.Thesedecisionsarenottheresultofthecurrentpandemic.”MSNwilluseAItoreplacetheproductionworkitsjournalistshavebeendoing.Thatworkincludesusinganautomatedsystemtoidentifytrendingnewsstoriesfromdozensofpublishingpartnersandtohelpimprovethecontentbyrewritingheadlinesoraddingbetteraccompanyingphotographsorslideshows.“IspendallmytimereadingabouthowautomationandAIaregoingtotakeallourjobs—nowit’stakenmine,”oneoftheterminatedcontractorssaid.“Butwithfewerhumanbeingstomonitorthetechnology,AImaynotbefullyfamiliarwithstricteditorialguidelinesandcouldenduplettingthroughinappropriatestories.”MSNhasundergoneanumberofchangessinceitsLaunchasMicrosoftNetworkin1995.Onceitofferedtheoriginalcontentandlinkstonews,weatherandsports.In2013,itreducedtheoriginalnewscontentandbegancuttingemployees.By2014.itlaunchedaredesignedversionthatpartneredwithothernewssites—payingthemtoredistributetheircontent.Today,thenewsservicereliesentirelyonthosepartnershipswithnooriginalnewscontentofitsown.SelectingandeditingstoriesratherthanactuallygeneratingthemmadeiteasierforMSNtoincreasinglyrelyonanautomatededitingsystem.5.WhatishappeningatMicrosoft?A.Morepeoplearebeingemployedtodevelop.B.SomeworkersarebeingfiredandreplacedbyAI.C.RobotsarebeingusedtowritenewsreportsforMSN.D.ItissigningnewcontractswithsomeworkersatMSN.6.WhatdoestheMicrosoftspokesmanmean?A.TheywillinvestmoreinAI.B.Theyfrequentlyexaminetheirbusiness.C.TheyprovidethebestservicesforInternetusers.D.Theyhavebeenbadlyinfluencedbythepandemic.7.Whatdoestheunderlinedword“terminated”inparagraph5probablymean?A.Scheduled.B.Informed.C.Involved.

4.D根据上文“SinceBobbieusedtorespondtothesoundofthecarhorn”可知,为了找到波比,弗兰克要慢慢开车鸣笛,才有可能让波比听到声音,这样波比才会现身。故选D项。5.B根据上文“Bobbieneverappeared.”以及空格后“placingnewspaperadvertisements”可知,弗兰克一家人一直在努力寻找波比。故选B项。6.C根据上文“Afteraweekof5andplacingnewspaperadvertisements”及“hadtogiveupandstartdrivinghome”可知,弗兰克一家人一直在努力寻找波比,但是一直没找到,只能放弃,开车
