班级 姓名 学号 分数 Unit 6 When was it invented?（B卷·培优卷） （时间：90分钟，满分：90分） 第一部分选择题(共50分) 一、阅读理解 ( 共20小题,每小题2分;满分40分 ) 第一节阅读下面语言材料,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 （A） Thanks to new technology, rice now being planted in the Taklimakan Desert in Xinjiang has a shorter growth time. Recently, a traditional type of rice in greenhouses built on the wasteland in Hotan, Xinjiang took about 60 days to mature (成熟), while normal rice farming takes about 120 to 150 days to mature. Yang Qichang, a scientist, led the project. He started looking into the possibilities of making rice growth faster in 2016. By 2021, Yang and his team had managed to cut the growth time of rice by half in an experiment (实验) in Chengdu. However, the man-made environment was expensive in Chengdu because of the large amount (量) of energy needed to simulate (模拟) sunlight and warm temperatures. “The cost of building greenhouses in Hotan is much cheaper than in many other parts of China because many are built on wasteland,” Yang said. “Hotan is a perfect place to do farming research.” A lot of sunlight and the huge temperature difference between day and night in Xinjiang also encourage crop (庄稼）development and help cut down the amount of energy required to simulate such conditions. Scientists are now thinking about using the same technology to make other crops, such as corn, grow faster in the desert. 1．What does the underlined word “greenhouse” mean in Paragraph 2? A．绿房子 B．功能室 C．温室 D. 暖屋 2．How long did it take the traditional rice in Hotan’s greenhouses to mature? A．About 60 days. B．About 120 days. C．About 150 days. D. About 2000 days. 3．What makes Hotan a perfect place for farming research? ① A lot of rain and water.           ② Much cheaper cost of building greenhouses. ③ Lots of sunlight and heat.         ④ Huge temperature difference between day and night. A．①②③ B．①③④ C．②③④ D. ①②④ 4．What can we know from the last paragraph? A．Scientists’ advice on how to grow crops faster in the desert. B．Scientists’ expectations for the wider use of the new technology. C．Scientists’ worries about whether the experiment can succeed again. D. Scientists’ happiness about that the experiment can’t succeed again. （B） It was a dark and stormy night. It was New Year’s Eve. We were having our party and had a house full of people just starting to celebrate. Suddenly, we heard loud explosions (爆炸声). Looking outside and up into the hills, we saw sparks (火花) flying from electrical transformers (变压器). Then our house went dark. I tried to find every candle we had and lit them. The candles made everything look lovely. But we had problems. We had fifteen people standing around and we still had to cook dinner. How would we do that without electricity? The barbecue! Why not cook on the barbecue? We boys and men went outside, some holding flashlights and others cooking. We did a wonderful job. The girls and women stayed inside and got the salads ready. Everything was delicious. There were still a few hours to go before the begınning of the new year, so we all sat around the dining room table and sang up until a few minutes before midnight. We couldn’t watch the ball drop in Times Square on television but that wouldn’t stop us from celebrating. I stood on a chair and, with the help of someone’s watch to tell us the time, we all counted down and I dropped a tennis ball! We all screamed Happy New Year. We didn’t need electricity for that! Nowadays, we still get together with the same group to celebrate the New Year and we still talk about that special night. I don’t think we have ever laughed so much as we did on that New Year’s Eve. 5．What happened during the party according to Paragraph 2? A．The hills near the house caught a big fire. B．The electricity went off in the house. C．The lights in the living room were broken. D．Some explosions happened in the kitchen. 6．Why did the writer drop the tennis ball at the party? A．To celebrate the arrival of the new year. B．To play games with the tennis ball. C．To make people pay attention to him. D．To show his talent with the tennis ball. 7．Which of the following is the correct time order of events? ①We sat around the dining room table and sang up. ②We saw sparks flying from electrical transformers. ③We counted down and screamed Happy New Year. ④We cooked dinner outside on the barbecue happily. A．②④①③ B．②①④③ C．④②③① D．④②①③ 8．What does the writer think of that special night mentioned in the passage? A．Educational. B．Boring. C．Unforgettable. D．Meaningless. （C） If I had a cold, I wouldn’t think twice about telling my friends or my doctor. For some reason, however, if I had a mental (心理的) problem, I might not treat it in the same way. At my elementary school, mental health was not discussed even once as far as I can remember. This makes me wonder how many other schools are failing to educate their students on this topic. It makes me sad that children growing up with mental illness may feel like it is something to be ashamed of (对……感到羞耻的) because it is never discussed. When I reached high school, mental health was still seldom discussed. But when it was in the topic of health or biology class, I was given a broad idea that mental illness was a “thing” that really lies. In my opinion, overstressed high school students could benefit (获益) greatly from more deep discussions about how to deal with mental health problems, such as how to know when you should care about yourself or a friend, or who to reach out for help. I know my friends and I could have benefited. Even if you personally have never faced mental health problems, someone you know is sure to have, and you can offer timely help. I also believe we need to normalize discussions about mental health at an early age, instead of hiding them from sight. At school, I saw a student’s report on mental health education and how it can be carried out in the American school system. The student used the film Inside Out to explain feelings to younger kids. This report made me believe that it is possible to start these discussions at a young age if we try. Although we can’t change the way people think about mental health over one night, there are still things we can do. Asking our friends how they’re feeling is a good start. 9．How does the writer introduce his topic in Paragraph 1? A．By showing facts. B．By giving numbers. C．By making comparison. D．By sharing a story. 10．What does the writer learn from the student’s report? A．Kids who are healthy outside might be ill inside. B．Mental health discussions can be held with young kids. C．The American school system is open to mental health education. D．Watching educational films can help children with mental illness. 11．The underlined word “normalize” in Paragraph 4 means ________ in Chinese. A．使……清晰 B．使……正常 C．使……重要 D．使……提前 12．What is the best title for the text? A．Mental health matters! B．Is it okay if it’s not good? C．The earlier, the better! D．How to pay attention to mental health? （D） Most parents don’t know what their teenage children are talking about when they are having a chat with their friends. This is also true when teenagers are using the language of texting to send messages. Words like 18r are easy to understand, but what about “POS”? I asked some parents what it means and only 28% got it right! It means that a parent is near and that they are watching what their child is doing. Parents worry a lot and like to know what is happening in their children’s lives at all times. This means they try to control as much of their children’s lives as possible. However, they have no control over the language that their children use, so it is a useful way for children to keep parts of their life secret. Parents also complain that they never have serious conversations with their teenage children. Teenagers are always busy phoning or texting their friends-even when parents are trying to talk to them. And there are times when teenagers aren’t busy, but they just don’t feel like having a serious chat with mum or dad! One way to start real conversations is to make sure that the whole family eats together at mealtimes and that everyone has a chance to talk. Teenagers are trying to find out who they are. They aren’t adults yet, but they are learning how to act like big people. This means that it is a good idea to speak to teenagers like they are adults and it helps to listen to their ideas and opinions carefully. When parents talk to their teenagers, some good advice is “Don’t sound like your own parents!”. In addition, parents who try to use the language of teenagers often sound very silly. And that’s because most times when an adult tries to use “teen talk”, the words are probably already unfashionable! 13．What does “POS” mean in teenage texting language? A．Parents on site. B．Parents over shoulder. C．Please open the door. D．Phone off soon. 14．Why do teenagers use their own language when texting? A．To communicate faster with their friends. B．To impress their parents with new words. C．To avoid serious conversations with parents. D．To keep parts of their lives secret from parents. 15．How should parents talk to their teenagers? A．Like they talk to adults. B．Like their own parents. C．Using teenage slang. D．Giving them strict advice. 16．What is the main idea of the passage? A．Teenagers are more secretive than parents think. B．Parents often fail to understand teenage language. C．Parents should try to control their children’s language. D．Teenagers need to communicate more with their parents. 第二节 阅读短文，从方框内所给的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，其中有一个多余的选项。 Many of us don’t pay attention to the importance of eye care. It’s said that if you take care of your body, then you can be healthy. 17 . Natural eye care should be put in a number one place. There are several causes leading to poor eyesight like not enough food, genes (基因) and aging (年龄增长). Televisions, computers and reading are also the causes of having poor eyesight. Something dirty can cause redness and they will make you feel uncomfortable. 18 . If this happens, the best way is to clean your eyes by using cold water. You must also try your best to protect your eyes from harmful things.

Did you know that this heat could be a kind of energy(能量)? Ann Makosinski, 31 15-year-old girl from British Columbia, Canada, made a flashlight (手电筒) that only uses the heat from your hands as energy. The 32 (invent) won top prize in the Google Science Fair’s 15-16 age group. Makosinski has been 33 (interest) in human energy since Grade 6. She said as humans, we produce heat every minute. She wanted to make use of that 34 (light) up the flashlight. She found a kind of tile (瓦片). These tiles produce electricity when one side is heated and the other is 35 (cool). She made the flashlight hollow (空心的) and put the tiles both inside and outside of it. 36 (hold) the flashlight with your hands would make the tiles heat up on one side. At the same time, the air cools the tiles on the inside of the flashlight. The electricity made by the tiles was enough for an LED light, 37 it did not make enough voltage (电压). 38 voltage, flashlights will not light up. To deal with the problem, Makosinski spent months finding information on the Internet and 39 (do) lots of trials at home. She said sometimes she thought it would never work, but she knew “you just kind of have to keep going”. In the end, she made a circuit (电路) by 40 (she) and it worked! Makosinski is working on getting a patent (专利) for her flashlight. 四、阅读与表达(共4小题，41~43小题 每小题2分，44小题4分;满分10分) 阅读短文，然后根据内容回答问题。 With the development of science and technology, communications are becoming easier and quicker now — people can use telephones, cellphones, fax machines and the Internet. It means that we seldom write letters now. But a TV show, Letters Alive (《见字如面》), is bringing back this old habit. Letters Alive invites famous actors and actresses, but there are no funny jokes or different competitions. Instead, only one person walks up to a microphone and reads a letter. The letters were written by people from different times in history. For example, in one episode(集), they read a letter written by the famous writer Xiao Hong to her younger brother in 1941. The letter shows that Xiao Hong missed her brother so much and had great hopes for his future. “Every letter opens another world for us,” said Guan Zhangwen, the director of the TV show. “It seems that we can experience the real lives and feelings of the writers”. Since its first episode was on, Letters Alive has been widely praised. Many audiences(观众) say that it has provided a breath of fresh air to today’s TV shows. Besides Letters Alive, some other cultural TV shows have also attracted Chinese audiences. They include the Chinese Poetry Conference, a traditional Chinese poetry competition and Readers, a program that invites people to read poems and articles they like or wrote. It suggests that cultural values and true feelings are becoming our interest. 41．Who does Letters Alive invite to read letters? _____________________________________________________________ 42．What does Xiao Hong’s letter show according to the passage? _____________________________________________________________ 43．Besides Letters Alive, what other cultural TV shows are mentioned in the passage? _____________________________________________________________ 44．How do you like the cultural TV shows?

It was New Year’s Eve. We were having our party and had a house full of people just starting to celebrate. Suddenly, we heard loud explosions (爆炸声). Looking outside and up into the hills, we saw sparks (火花) flying from electrical transformers (变压器). Then our house went dark. I tried to find every candle we had and lit them. The candles made everything look lovely. But we had problems. We had fifteen people standing around and we still had to cook dinner. How would we do that without electricity? The barbecue! Why not cook on the barbecue? We boys and men went outside, some holding flashlights and others cooking. We did a wonderful job. The girls and women stayed inside and got the salads ready. Everything was delicious. There were still a few hours to go before the begınning of the new year, so we all sat around the dining room table and sang up until a few minutes before midnight. We couldn’t watch the ball drop in Times Square on television but that wouldn’t stop us from celebrating. I stood on a chair and, with the help of someone’s watch to tell us the time, we all counted down and I dropped a tennis ball! We all screamed Happy New Year. We didn’t need electricity for that! Nowadays, we still get together with the same group to celebrate the New Year and we still talk about that special night.

A．②④①③ B．②①④③ C．④②③① D．④②①③ 8．What does the writer think of that special night mentioned in the passage? A．Educational. B．Boring. C．Unforgettable. D．Meaningless. 【答案】5．B 6．A 7．A 8．C 【导语】本文主要讲述了新年的夜晚，由于故障导致停电，作者和亲友在户外烧烤迎接新年的难忘经历。 5．细节理解题。根据“Suddenly, we heard loud explosions (爆炸声). Looking outside and up into the hills, we saw sparks (火花) flying from electrical transformers (变压器).

This is also true when teenagers are using the language of texting to send messages. Words like 18r are easy to understand, but what about “POS”? I asked some parents what it means and only 28% got it right! It means that a parent is near and that they are watching what their child is doing.

It means that we seldom write letters now. But a TV show, Letters Alive (《见字如面》), is bringing back this old habit. Letters Alive invites famous actors and actresses, but there are no funny jokes or different competitions. Instead, only one person walks up to a microphone and reads a letter. The letters were written by people from different times in history. For example, in one episode(集), they read a letter written by the famous writer Xiao Hong to her younger brother in 1941. The letter shows that Xiao Hong missed her brother so much and had great hopes for his future. “Every letter opens another world for us,” said Guan Zhangwen, the director of the TV show. “It seems that we can experience the real lives and feelings of the writers”. Since its first episode was on, Letters Alive has been widely praised. Many audiences(观众) say that it has provided a breath of fresh air to today’s TV shows. Besides Letters Alive, some other cultural TV shows have also attracted Chinese audiences. They include the Chinese Poetry Conference, a traditional Chinese poetry competition and Readers, a program that invites people to read poems and articles they like or wrote.
