1、 材料:

In some countries, higher education has not given enough attention to sports and music. (1) __

 

(1) _ Firstly, organizing sports competitions on campus can greatly help increase the fitness level of participating students. It must be said that students' physical well-being plays a significant role in helping them achieve academic success during a course of four or five years. Secondly, students who join sports clubs usually demonstrate better leadership, problem-solving and time management skills. As these are required in their future careers, such students stand a better chance of employment and can usually receive higher salaries after graduation. Finally, an enriched after-class life provides students with good opportunities for networking, meeting peers who may share the same interest.

 

(2) With the soaring unemployment rates in some regions of the world, we can see that universities with a good reputation and superb educational facilities are the ones that attract most students. Especially for those that do not seem to enroll enough students, improving these areas is the right thing to do. (4) ___ Since problems facing today's world, such as environmental pollution, population explosion, and energy crisis, are posing dire threats to the survival and thriving of the human race, our world calls for more talented university graduates to find working solutions to these urgent global issues.

 

Conclusively, while I understand that non-academic projects are highly necessary, I feel that building better educational facilities is the first priority of universities.

1、 问题:

2、 材料:

Dr. Donald Sadoway at MIT started his own battery company with the hope of changing the world's energy future. It's a dramatic endorsement for a technology most people think about only when their smartphone goes dark. But Sadoway isn't alone in trumpeting energy storage as a missing link to a cleaner, more efficient, and more equitable energy future.

 

Scientists and engineers have long believed in the promise of batteries to change the world. Advanced batteries are moving out of specialized markets and creeping into the mainstream, signaling a tipping point for forward-looking technologies such as electric cars and rooftop solar propels.

 

The ubiquitous battery has already come a long way, of course. For better or worse, batteries make possible our mobile-first lifestyles, our screen culture, our increasingly globalized world. Still, as impressive as all this is, it may be trivial compared with what comes next. Having already enabled a communications revolution, the battery is now poised to transform just about everything else.

 

The wireless age is expanding to include not just our phones, tablets, and laptops, but also our cars, homes, and even whole communities. In emerging economies, rural communities are bypassing the wires and wooden poles that spread power. Instead, some in Africa and Asia are seeing their first lightbulbs illuminated by the power of sunlight stored in batteries.

 

Today, energy storage is a $33 billion global industry that generates nearly 100 gigawatt-hours of electricity per year. By the end of the decade, it's expected to be worth over $50 billion and generate 160 gigawatt-hours, enough to attract the attention of major companies that might not otherwise be interested in a decidedly pedestrian technology. Even utility companies, which have long Viewed batteries and alternative forms of energy as a threat, are learning to embrace the technologies as enabling rather than disrupting.

 

Today's battery breakthroughs come as the world looks to expand modern energy access to the billion or so people without it, while also cutting back on fuels that warm the planet. Those simultaneous challenges appear less overwhelming with increasingly better answers to a centuries-old question: how to make power portable.

To be sure, the battery still has a long way to go before the nightly recharge completely replaces the weekly trip to the gas station. A battery-powered world comes with its own risks, too. What happens to the centralized electric grid, which took decades and billions of dollars to build, as more and more people become "prosumers," who produce and consume their own energy onsite?

 

No one knows which–if any–battery technology will ultimately dominate, but one thing remains clear. The future of energy is in how we store it.

2、 问题:

What does Dr. Sadoway think of energy storage?

选项：
A:It involves the application of sophisticated technology.
B:It will prove to be a profitable business.
C:It is the direction energy development should follow.
D:It is a technology benefiting everyone.
答案: 【
It is the direction energy development should follow.
】

2、 问题:

What is most likely to happen when advanced batteries become widely used?

选项：
A:The globalization process will be accelerated.
B:The world will undergo revolutionary changes.
C:Communications will take more diverse forms.
D:Mobile-first lifestyles will become popular.
答案: 【
The world will undergo revolutionary changes.
】

2、 问题:

In some rural communities of emerging economies, people have begun to _____.

选项：
A:find digital devices simply indispensable
B:light their homes with stored solar energy
C:distribute power with wires and wooden poles
D:communicate primarily by mobile phone
答案: 【
light their homes with stored solar energy
】

2、 问题:

Utility companies have begun to realize that battery technologies _____.

选项：
A:promote innovation
B:transmit power faster
C:benefit their business
D:encourage competition
答案: 【
benefit their business
】

2、 问题:

What does the author imply about the centralized electric grid?

选项：
A:It might become a thing of the past.
B:It will have to be completely transformed.
C:It might turn out to be a "prosumer".
D:It will be easier to operate and maintain.
答案: 【
It might become a thing of the past.

3、 材料:

What we know of prenatal development makes all this attempt made by a mother to mold the character of her unborn child by studying poetry, art, or mathematics during pregnancy seem utterly impossible. How could such extremely complex influences pass from the mother to the child? There is no connection between their nervous systems. Even the blood vessels of mother and child do not join directly. An emotional shock to the mother will affect her child, because it changes the activity of her glands and so the chemistry her blood. Any chemical change in the mother’s blood will affect the child for better or worse. But we can not see how a looking for mathematics or poetic genius can be dissolved in blood and produce a similar liking or genius in the child.

 

In our discussion of instincts we saw that there was reason to believe that whatever we inherit must be of some very simple sort rather than any complicated or very definite kind of behavior. It is certain that no one inherits a knowledge of mathematics. It may be, however, that children inherit more or less of a rather general ability that we may call intelligence. If very intelligent children become deeply interested in mathematics, they will probably make a success of that study.

 

As for musical ability, it may be that what is inherited is an especially sensitive ear, a peculiar structure of the hands or the vocal organs connections between nerves and muscles that make it comparatively easy to learn the movements a musician must execute, and particularly vigorous emotions. If these factors are all organized around music, the child may become a musician. The same factors, in other circumstance might be organized about some other center of interest. The rich emotional equipment might find expression in poetry. The capable fingers might develop skill in surgery. It is not the knowledge of music that is inherited, then nor even the love of it, but a certain bodily structure that makes it comparatively easy to acquire musical knowledge and skill. Whether that ability shall be directed toward music or some other undertaking may be decided entirely by forces in the environment in which a child grows up.

3、 问题:

Which of the following statements is not true?

选项：
A:There are no connection between mother’s nervous systems and her unborn child’s.
B:It is utterly impossible for us to learn anything about prenatal development.
C:Some mothers try to influence their unborn children by studying art and other subjects during their pregnancy.
D:The blood vessels of mother and child do not join directly.
答案: 【
It is utterly impossible for us to learn anything about prenatal development.
】

3、 问题:

A mother will affect her unborn baby on the condition that ____.

选项：
A:she sticks to studying
B:she is emotionally shocked
C:she has a good knowledge of inheritance
D:she takes part in all kind of activities
答案: 【
she is emotionally shocked
】

3、 问题:

According to the passage, a child may inherit____.

选项：
A:her mother’s musical ability
B:a rather general ability that we call intelligence
C:a knowledge of mathematics
D:everything from his mother
答案: 【
a rather general ability that we call intelligence
】

3、 问题:

If a child inherits something from his mother, such as an especially sensitive ear, a peculiar structure of the hands or of the vocal organs, he will ____.

选项：
A:become a musician on the condition that all these factors are organized around music
B:mostly become a poet
C:possibly become a teacher
D:surely become musician
答案: 【
become a musician on the condition that all these factors are organized around music

1、 材料:

(1) __  The trend is not restricted to rich students who have the money to travel, but is also evident among poorer students who choose to work and become economically independent for a period of time.

 

The reasons for this trend may involve the recognition that a young adult who passes directly from school to university is rather restricted in terms of general knowledge and experience of the world. (2) _  They tend to be more independent, which is a very important factor in academic study and research, as well as giving them an advantage in terms of coping with the challenges of student life.

 

(3)  Young adults may end up never returning to their studies or finding it difficult to readapt to an academic environment. They may think that it is better to continue in a particular job, or to do something completely different from a university course. But overall, I think this is less likely today, when academic qualifications are essential for getting a reasonable career.

 

My view is that young people should be encouraged to broaden their horizons. (4)___  Students with such a perspective are usually the most effective and motivated ones and taking a year off may be the best way to gain this.

1、 问题:

选项：
A:That is the best way for them to get a clear perspective of what they are hoping to do with their lives and why.

C:By contrast, those who have spent some time earning a living or travelling to other places, have a broader view of life and better personal resources to draw on.
D:However, there are certainly dangers in taking time off at that important age.

2、 材料:

Schools are not just a microcosm of society; they mediate it too. The best seek to alleviate the external pressures on their pupils while equipping them better to understand and handle the world outside — at once sheltering them and broadening their horizons. This is ambitious in any circumstances, and in a divided and unequal society the two ideals can clash outright.

 

Trips that many adults would consider the adventure of a lifetime — treks in Bomeo, a sports tour to Barbados — appear to have become almost routine at some state schools. Parents are being asked for thousands of pounds. Though schools cannot profit from these trips, the companies that arrange them do. Meanwhile, pupils arrive at school hungry because their families can't afford breakfast. The Child Poverty Action Group says nine out of 30 in every classroom fall below the poverty line. The discrepancy is startlingly apparent. Introducing a fundraising requirement for students does not help, as better-off children can tap up richer aunts and neighbours.

 

Probing the rock pools of a local beach or practising French on a language exchange can fire children's passions, boost their skills and open their eyes to life 's possibilities. Educational outings help bright but disadvantaged students to get better scores in A-level tests. In this globalised age, there is a good case for international travel, and some parents say they can manage the cost of a school trip abroad more easily than a family holiday. Even in the face of immense and mounting financial pressures, some schools have shown remarkable determination and ingenuity in ensuring that all their pupils are able to take up opportunities that may be truly life-changing. They should be applauded. Methods such as whole-school fundraising, with the proceeds pooled, can help to extend opportunities and fuel community spirit.

 

But 3,000 pounds trips cannot be justified when the average income for families with children is just over 30,000 pounds. Such initiatives close doors for many pupils. Some parents pull their children out of school because of expensive field trips. Even parents who can see that a trip is little more than a party or celebration may well feel guilt that their child is left behind.

 

The Department for Education 's guidance says schools can charge only for board and lodging if the trip is part of the syllabus, and that students receiving government aid are exempt from these costs. However, many schools seem to ignore the advice; and it does not cover the kind of glamorous, exotic trips, which are becoming increasingly common. Schools cannot be expected to bring together communities single-handed. But the least we should expect is that they do not foster divisions and exclude those who are already disadvantaged.

2、 问题:

What does the author say best schools should do?

选项：
A:Motivate students to develop their physical as well as intellectual abilities.
B:Prepare students to both challenge and change the divided unequal society.
C:Encourage students to be ambitious and help them to achieve their goals.
D:Protect students from social pressures and enable them to face the world.
答案: 【
Protect students from social pressures and enable them to face the world.
】

2、 问题:

What does the author think about school field trips?

选项：
A:They give the disadvantaged students a chance to see the world.
B:They enable students from different backgrounds to mix with each other.
C:They only benefit students with rich relatives and neighbours.
D:They widen the gap between privileged and disadvantaged students.
答案: 【
They widen the gap between privileged and disadvantaged students.
】

2、 问题:

What does the author suggest can help build community spirit?

选项：
A:Activities that help to fuel students' ingenuity.
B:Events that require mutual understanding.
C:Activities involving all students on campus.
D:Events aiming to improve community services.
答案: 【
Activities involving all students on campus.

2、 问题:

What do we learn about low-income parents regarding school field trips?

选项：
A:They want their children to participate even though they don't see much benefit.
B:They don't want their kids to participate but find it hard to keep them from going.
C:They don't want their kids to miss any chance to broaden their horizons despite the cost.
D:They want their children to experience adventures but they don't want them to run risks.
答案: 【
They want their children to participate even though they don't see much benefit.
】

2、 问题:

What is the author's expectation of schools?

选项：
A:Giving poor students preferential treatment.
B:Avoiding creating new gaps among students.
C:Bringing a community together with ingenuity.

3、 材料:

Racket, din clamor, noise, whatever you want to call it, unwanted sound is America's most widespread nuisance. But noise is more than just a nuisance. It constitutes a real and present danger to people's health. Day and night, at home, at work, and at play, noise can produce serious physical and psychological stress. No one is immune to this stress. Though we seem to adjust to noise by ignoring it, the ear, in fact, never closes and the body still responds—sometimes with extreme tension, as to a strange sound in the night.

 

The annoyance we feel when faced with noise is the most common outward symptom of the stress building up inside us. Indeed, because irritability is so apparent, legislators have made public annoyance the basis of many noise abatement programs. The more subtle and more serious health hazards associated with stress caused by noise traditionally have been given much less attention. Nevertheless, when we are annoyed or made irritable by noise, we should consider these symptoms fair warning that other thing may be happening to us, some of which may be damaging to our health.

Of many health hazards to noise, hearing loss is the most clearly observable and measurable by health professionals. The other hazards are harder to pin down. For many of us, there may be a risk that exposure to the stress of noise increases susceptibility to disease and infection. The more susceptible among us may experience noise as a complicating factor in heart problems and other diseases. Noise that causes annoyance and irritability in health persons may have serious consequences for these already ill in mind or body.

 

Noise affects us throughout our lives. For example, there are indications of effects on the unborn child when mothers are exposed to industrial and environmental noise. During infancy and childhood, youngsters exposed to high noise levels may have trouble falling asleep and obtaining necessary amounts of rest.

 

Why, then, is there not greater alarm about these dangers? Perhaps it is because the link between noise and many disabilities or diseases has not yet been conclusively demonstrated. Perhaps it is because we tend to dismiss annoyance as a price to pay for living in the modern world. It may also be because we still think of hearing loss as only an occupational hazard.

3、 问题:

1.    In Paragraph 1, the phrase "immune to" are used to mean ___.

选项：
A:unlikely to be seen by
B:hurt by
C:unaffected by
D:unknown by

concerned

A:Noise is a major problem and has not yet been recognized as such.
B:Noise is a major problem and most people recognize its importance.
C:Although noise can be annoying, it is not a major problem.

第三章 单元测试

1、 材料:

It is true that all parents hope that their children grow into mature and wise individuals. (1) __.

 

To begin with, money management is an important part of modern life. If young people know nothing about this, chances are high that they are going to encounter great difficulty at some point of their lives. For example, many people, and children of the wealthy                                                     in particular, like to squander all their money on things they enjoy such as expensive cars or fashionable clothes even if other things may seem much more important to invest on. (2) _.

 

(3) Thus, learning how to invest wisely is crucial regardless of what we buy and how old we are. In a sense, we cannot afford a late start to learn to keep a balance and resist the temptation.

 

Thirdly, I would argue that a good habit acquired in the formative years of a child is very likely to last a lifetime, so is the habit of saving up. (4) ___ This is relatively easier to learn when there is parental help and guidance whereas during adulthood, no one enjoys that supervision anymore. Less restriction will increase the chance to make unwise investment.

 

We can therefore conclude that because managing money is important to people today, we should encourage children to learn these lessons as soon as they are able to understand them.

1、 问题:

______

选项：
A:While some may doubt whether money management skills should be taught to children, I firmly believe that skills such as bank account management can be helpful.
B:However, many adults only start to learn this upon their adulthood and this usually does not work because very quickly they would find that they fall into the old habit.
C:Squandering money like this, they will not be able to deal with troubles such as sudden unemployment, and harsh economic situations.
D:In this highly commercialized world, it is increasingly tempting to spend our money since advertisements and a consumerist society never stop baiting us.
答案: 【
