01 Topic Talk & Lesson 1 A Medical Pioneer Part Ⅱ 拓展阅读训练 1 A [安徽芜湖一中2024高一期中] Throughout human history, there is a bottomless well of people who made great contributions so that we can now enjoy a better life. The following are just four of those great minds. Joseph Lister （1827—1912） English surgeon （外科医生）. Lister pioneered the use of antiseptic （消毒剂） and antiseptic surgery which greatly improved survival rates from major surgery. For this, he is often referred to as the father of modern surgery as his use of antiseptic greatly increased the kinds of operations that could be carried out. 刷阅读理解 2 Maximilian Bircher-Benner （1867—1939） Bircher-Benner was a pioneering Swiss physician and nutritionist. He advocated the eating of raw fruit and vegetables and discouraged eating meat and heavily processed foods. Although he was questioned by the scientific establishment, his healthy eating ideas took off and helped create a strong opposition to the diet of processed bread, meat and carbs （碳水化合物）. The healthy eating trends he established have continued to grow in popularity with more scientific research showing the health benefits of such a diet. 刷阅读理解 3 Paracelsus （1493—1541） Swiss-German physician and leading health reformer. Paracelsus founded the discipline of toxicology （毒理学） and pioneered the use of chemicals in treating patients. He emphasised practical experience. He was also one of the first doctors to note illness can be psychological in nature. Peter Mansfield （1933—2017） English physicist who with Paul Lauterbur helped to develop magnetic resonance imaging （MRI） which allows doctors to see inside a patient’s body without needing to cut it open. With MRI, doctors can see far more than with X-rays, which are limited to bones. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 2003. 刷阅读理解 4 【语篇导读】本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍了为人类可以享受更好生活作出杰出贡献的四个伟大人物。 1.What is Maximilian Bircher-Benner’s contribution?( ) B A.He discovered X-rays.

The film’s production team realised they needed an alternative to the style that highlighted almost all of the leaves, flowers and mushrooms in the woods of Snow White. Soon they got their inspiration from Tyrus Wong, whose work was on display as a new exhibit at New York City’s Museum of Chinese in America. In 1938, the Walt Disney Studios hired him to draw the frames between the main drawings of the animators. After reading the story of Bambi, he saw an opportunity to break out of his humdrum （乏味的） job. He said to himself “This is all outdoor scenery. And I’m a landscape painter. This will be great!” 刷阅读理解 9 Inspired by Chinese landscape paintings, he used watercolour and pastel （蜡笔） to make sketches that brought the feeling of forest scenes with simple strokes of colour and special attention to light and shadow. Wong’s sketches attracted Disney and became the guide for Bambi’s background artists, who were later trained to imitate his style. “His expression was a great leap forward for the medium,” wrote John Lasseter, the chief creative officer for Walt Disney and Pixar Animation Studios. “Where other films were literal, Bambi was expressive and emotional.” In 2001,Wong was named “Disney Legend”, and he received the recognition as the true lead artist. He pursued art all his life and still made art during his retirement, including toy animals from recycled materials and handmade kites that he regularly flew off the Santa Monica Pier in California. “People admired his work because of Bambi, but Bambi was just a really small part of his life,” said his youngest daughter. “He considered himself not a great artist but a lucky artist, who was at the right place at the right time.” 刷阅读理解 【语篇导读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了艺术家黄齐耀的绘画风格及其在迪士尼经典动画作品《小鹿斑比》中的重要贡献。 1.Why did Walt Disney’s artists notice Tyrus Wong?( ) C A.He was good at drawing cartoon characters. B.He won a prize at a museum in New York. C.His style was suitable for the woods of Bambi. D.His work could be used to advertise Walt Disney’s films. 解析 细节理解题。根据第一段中的The film’s production team realised they needed an alternative to the style that highlighted almost all of the leaves, flowers and mushrooms in the woods of Snow White.以及第二段中的Soon they got their inspiration from Tyrus Wong可知，迪士尼的艺术家们注意到黄齐耀是因为黄齐耀的作品风格很适合《小鹿斑比》这部动画中的树林场景。故选C项。 刷阅读理解 11 2.What did John Lasseter think of Tyrus Wong’s style?( ) B A.It lacked imagination and was ordinary. B.It focused on the expression of emotion. C.It showed the legend of Walt Disney. D.It displayed the progress of the medium. 解析 细节理解题。根据第三段中的His expression was a great leap forward for the medium和Where other films were literal, Bambi was expressive and emotional.可知，黄齐耀的表达风格是动画媒介的一大飞跃，其他电影都是直白的，而《小鹿斑比》富有表现力且饱含情感。由此可知，约翰·拉塞特认为黄齐耀的风格注重情感的表达。故选B项。 刷阅读理解 12 【关键点拨】抓住关键词理解文意 此处解题的关键是理解约翰·拉塞特所说的话。此处需要抓住一个关键词literal，我们熟知的意思是“字面意思的”，此处表达的是电影的风格，意为“缺乏想象力的”。由此我们可以理解，约翰·拉塞特认为黄齐耀的风格很好地表达出了《小鹿斑比》这部电影想传达的情感。 刷阅读理解 13 3.What can we learn about Tyrus Wong from the last paragraph?( ) A A.He was devoted to art during his lifetime. B.He had been busy with his whole life. C.He stopped creating after retirement.

B.By making comparisons with other artists. C.By describing his career. D.By listing his works. 解析 推理判断题。根据第二段内容可知，迪士尼的艺术家们从黄齐耀的作品中得到灵感，因此黄齐耀被迪士尼卡通工作室聘请绘制动画画面；再根据第三段内容可知，黄齐耀画的速描画成为《小鹿斑比》背景艺术家的指导，他的表达方式是动画媒介的一大飞跃，2001年，他获封迪士尼“传奇人物”；根据最后一段可知，黄齐耀一生都在追求艺术，退休后仍在从事艺术创作。综上可知，作者通过描述黄齐耀的职业生涯对他进行介绍。故选C项。 刷阅读理解 15 [河南信阳普通高中2023高一质量检测] Albert Einstein was born in Ulm, Germany on 14 March, 1879. 1. .
