单元检测卷(五) (满分：120分　时间：100分钟) 第一部分　阅读(共两节，满分50分) 第一节(共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A (2024·安徽师大附中高二下期末) Can't­miss attractions along the China­Laos railway: China section The China­Laos railway, an over­1，000­kilometer­long cross­border railway connecting the city of Kunming in Southwest China's Yunnan province with the capital of Laos, Vientiane, was inaugurated in December, which links destinations worthy of a visit along the way.Check out some of the can't­miss destinations along the Chinese section of the railway. Fuxian Lake in Yuxi Just 30 minutes from Kunming, the city of Yuxi is home to Fuxian Lake, China's largest deep­water lake sitting on a plateau.Famous Chinese travel writer Xu Xiake (1587－1641) once paid a visit and wrote about its pristine water.What makes the lake more mysterious is the possibility that an ancient city lived under its quiet and calm surface. Sun­River National Park in Pu'er The word “Pu'er” may remind many of the renowned tea from Yunnan Province, but it is also the name of a city.Not surprisingly, it is one of the country's major Pu'er tea producing areas.Back in ancient China, the region served as an important stop along the Tea Horse Road, a trade route linking Yunnan and Southwest China's Xizang autonomous region. Wild Elephant Valley in Xishuangbanna A group of wandering Asian elephants in Yunnan grabbed headlines when it set off on a rare 500­kilometer trek from Xishuangbanna, a major habitat for wild elephants in China.For those wishing to interact with the giant creatures themselves, the Wild Elephant Valley is a must­visit. [语篇解读]本文是应用文。文章主要介绍了中国铁路沿线三个不可错过的旅游目的地。 1．Where did Xu Xiake once visit? A．Vientiane. B．Fuxian Lake. C．Kunming. D．Pu'er. B　[细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Famous Chinese travel writer Xu Xiake (1587－1641) once paid a visit and wrote about its pristine water.”可知，徐霞客去过抚仙湖。] 2．What is Tea Horse Road? A．It is the name of a tea. B．It is the name of a city. C．It was a trade route in ancient China. D．It is a famous travel route. C　[细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“Back in ancient China...China's Xizang autonomous region.”可知，茶马古道是古代中国的一条贸易路线。] 3．What is Xishuangbanna famous for? A．The largest deep­water lake. B．The famous Pu'er tea. C．The headlines this year. D．Wild Asian elephants. D　[细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“Xishuangbanna, a major habitat...Valley is a must­visit”可知，西双版纳是中国野生大象的主要栖息地，对于那些想要亲自与巨象互动的人来说，野象谷是必游之地。由此可知，西双版纳以野生亚洲象出名。] B “Can we eat this one，Dad？”my four­year­old daughter，Alicia，asks.We're on one of our Thursday adventures，searching the nearby woods for eatable mushrooms.She's pointing at a bright­red cap covered with white dots.I open my handy mushroom­identification app，which notes that Amanita muscaria，while eatable if prepared properly，is also a known hallucinogen (致幻剂).I have a firm “tell them the truth and be as precise as possible” philosophy and explain what the app says，and that I don't think our Thursday adventures are ready to get quite that adventurous yet. Watching your kids learn new skills is extraordinarily rewarding，but I've experienced more personal growth than I have at any other point in my life. Last year，after a winter of practicing skiing on the green tracks for beginners each week，Alicia could ski smoothly down blue tracks and even attempted her first black.That month also witnessed me visiting the mountain more times than in the 15 years combined and I've got myself a partner for life． It's not all easy—but sometimes that's the point.Alicia practices the violin every day，and although she enjoys it，even 15 minutes of practice can upset her.The trick，I've found，is to let her watch me try to get better at something，too.I start taking piano lessons at 41 years old with the idea that if she sees me struggling as I practice and then improve，she'll understand that things don't come easy，even for grown­ups.I know there's going to be a time when I'll end up on the sidelines cheering her on as she finds her own passions.I'm okay with this，and I'm hoping that by then she'll carry the joy of practice and knowledge through life. [语篇解读]本文是记叙文。作者带着女儿识别毒蘑菇，陪着她练习滑雪，和她一起学习钢琴。作为父亲，作者以身作则，在陪伴女儿学习新技能的过程中，自己也在学习，与女儿共同成长。 4．What does the father imply by saying “I've got myself a partner for life” in Paragraph 3? A．It is rewarding to learn new skills. B．Skiing has become his lifelong hobby. C．He will explore more with his daughter. D．His daughter will accompany him forever. C　[推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Last year，after a...her first black...combined”可知，作者去山上是为了陪女儿练习滑雪，且他这个月去山上的次数比过去十五年加起来的次数都多，由此说明他对女儿的陪伴很多，再结合第二段内容可知，女儿在学习的同时，作者也在成长。因此该句是想表达他会和女儿一起探索更多，故选C。] 5．Why does the father start learning to play the piano? A．To prove it is never too old to learn. B．To set a good example for his daughter. C．To experience the joy of piano practice. D．To share musical knowledge with his daughter. B　[细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“The trick，I've found...even for grown­ups”可知，作者的女儿对每天十五分钟的小提琴练习感到沮丧，为了激励女儿，作者开始学习弹钢琴，想要为女儿树立一个良好的榜样。故选B。] 6．Which of the following can best describe the father? A．Rigid and humorous. B．Cautious and inspiring. C．Creative and thoughtful. D．Ambitious and patient. B　[推理判断题。根据第一段内容可知，作者与女儿在野外采蘑菇，还特地用专门的应用程序来识别蘑菇是否可以食用，这说明作者很谨慎；根据最后一段内容可知，作者以身作则，41岁开始学钢琴，给女儿树立榜样，说明他很有启发能力，懂得鼓励别人。] 7．Which can be a suitable title for the text? A．The Thrill of Skills B．Practice Makes Perfect C．Like Father，Like Daughter D．The Power of Knowledge A　[标题归纳题。通读第二段可知，作者认为看着自己的孩子学会新技能是非常满足的，在孩子学习的同时，自己也在成长；根据最后一段的“end up on...through life”可知，作者希望女儿能找到自己的爱好，并且在一生中都能拥有实践和(获得)知识的快乐，这说明父亲希望技能可以给孩子带来乐趣，所以A项最适合作本文的标题。] C Ireland's Achill Island has always been a popular European tourist destination.However，since April in 2017，the small island of just 2，700 residents (居民) has gained worldwide fame thanks to the magical return of a beach that was washed away over three decades ago. The chain of events began in 1984 when residents of Dooagh，one of the settlements on the island，awoke to a surprising sight: their beautiful sandy beach had been washed away by strong Atlantic storms.There were only rocks and rock pools left.For about 34 years，only small amounts of sand returned to the once unspoiled shores.The area's tourism industry slowly declined，and the handful of beachside hotels，pubs，and restaurants gradually closed as well. Then around Easter in 2017，something magical happened—an unusual ten­day tide blanketed the barren 300­meter long rock beach with hundreds of tons of soft golden sand.Scientists suspect that the sand had been gathering offshore for months and was transported to the beach by the high winds and powerful waves. The locals are delighted to have their beach back，especially as it is attracting thousands of visitors wishing to witness the power of nature，with their own eyes.However，Sean Molloy，manager at Achill Tourism，cautions against going into the cold waters just yet，saying，“Because of the sand coming in，we don't know how safe the beach is now because currents (水流) could be changed and it'll take a little bit of time.”He instead recommends visitors enjoy the soft sand and leave the swimming to the dolphins that frequent the area. Interestingly，this is not the first time Dooagh Beach has pulled a disappearing and reappearing act.It disappeared in the 1890s，for over 30 years，before，returning in 1927.However，the locals are optimistic that this time around，the beautiful sand is here to stay. [语篇解读]本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了爱尔兰阿基尔岛(Achill Island)消失的海滩时隔三十多年再次出现引起世界轰动的事件。 8．What has brought Achill Island worldwide attention recently? A．An unusual storm. B．The decrease in the number of residents. C．The return of its beach. D．The building of a new tourist destination. C　[细节理解题。根据第一段中的“However，since April in 2017...over three decades ago”可知，消失了三十多年的海滩的回归使得阿基尔岛引起了全世界的关注。] 9．What happened to Dooagh in the past three decades? A．Tourism went down gradually. B．Restaurants developed slowly. C．Storms attacked frequently. D．Rock pools disappeared completely. A　[细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The area's tourism industry slowly declined...closed as well”可知，随着海滩的消失，在过去三十多年里Dooagh地区的旅游业逐渐衰落。] 10．What does the underlined word “barren” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A．Noisy. B．Soft. C．Bare. D．Golden. C　[词义猜测题。根据画线词所在句中的“ten­day tide...soft golden sand”可知，由于潮水的力量，横跨300米的岩石海滩被松软的金沙覆盖了。画线词修饰岩石海滩，结合文章内容可知，海滩消失之后，三十多年来岩石海滩表面什么都没有，所以画线词与bare同义，意为“空的，荒芜的”。] 11．What should tourists avoid according to Sean Molloy? A．Spoiling the shores. B．Getting into the rock pools. C．Playing with dolphins. D．Swimming near the beach. D　[推理判断题。根据第四段中的“He instead recommends visitors...frequent the area”可知，Sean Molloy建议游客享受松软的沙子，把游泳让给海豚，即他建议游客不要在海滩附近游泳。] D A thrilling polar competition between two adventurers to cross Antarctica alone，unsupported and unassisted, had a happy ending with both explorers achieving the unprecedented feat (功绩).American professional athlete Colin O'Brady and British Army Captain Louis Rudd set off a mile apart at the same time on November 3, 2018, from the Atlantic coast with the aim to become the first person to ski across the remote continent alone. Louis Rudd maintained the lead at first.However, O'Brady caught up with Rudd on November 10 and never let the British man get close to him again.O'Brady was the first to conquer the 930­mile icy land, arriving at the Ross Ice Shelf on the Pacific coast by way of the South Pole on December 26, 2018.The 33­year­old spent 54 days skiing across the world's coldest continent while pulling a 300­pound sled (雪橇) with supplies. Instead of leaving the harsh environment after completing the historic adventure, the explorer set up a tent on the world's largest ice sheet and waited patiently for Rudd to complete the great undertaking.On December 29, just three days after O'Brady arrived, the British explorer finished his adventure, becoming the world's second person to complete the solo crossing of the frozen continent. Rudd was not disappointed at being second since he never considered it to be a“race”．Besides, the 49­year­old British Army Captain had a more selfless motive for attempting the feat.He was doing it in memory of his friend Henry Worsley, who had introduced him to polar exploration.The disaster happened while Worsley was trying to cross the continent alone in 2016.Rudd said，“I didn't want to get drawn into a race.All that mattered to me was that I completed it, and that I skied solo and unsupported，carrying the flag with Henry's name on it.” After spending a few days camping 10 feet away from each other, the two adventurers were picked up by a helicopter to the South Pole scientific research station.

A．O'Brady skied along with Louis Rudd side by side. B．O'Brady's sled with food supplies broke down. C．Louis Rudd lost the flag with Henry's name on it. D．O'Brady fell behind Louis Rudd for the first week.

A．He used to encourage O'Brady to explore the Antarctic. B．He lost his life in a terrible traffic accident in 2016. C．He died while he was attempting to cross the Antarctic alone.

I'm here to encourage you to travel to the unknown.Here are a few things to think about if you need a little push. Listen to yourself. Nothing sets you up more for a hard fall than preconceived notions (看法).17. Friends, family, and even strangers have plenty to say when they find out you're going to a place they've been.But you should take it with a grain of salt.Read up on your destination, get excited, and be prepared to form your own opinions. 18． When I try to see things in a positive light, instead of dwelling on (沉湎于) the negative, I enjoy my experience much more.The simple truth is that things almost never go according to plan.Once I accepted this, it became a lot easier to not sweat the small stuff. Community is key. I've been fortunate to see some beautiful places, but without a doubt, the people I've met have been the best part of my travels.You don't have to go with your best friends, but make the effort and take the opportunity to get to know people.19. Off the beaten path. I prefer to travel, rather than vacation.20. But also take time to learn about the culture, learn a little history, speak to locals, and take the roads less traveled to small towns that are visited less but still just as charming. A．Make a plan before leaving. B．The glass is half full, not half empty. C．Those challenges can make the best memories. D．Just as every person is different, so is every travel experience. E．I'm always seeking those travel experiences that are truly memorable. F．It's easier than you may think and I'm pretty sure you won't regret it.

As part of the lesson, Geordi's teacher brought horseshoe crab shells (壳) to school for the children to touch and examine.Hearing that horseshoe crabs had been around for over 300 million years, even before the dinosaurs, Geordi thought that was officially the coolest thing he had ever heard.He could not stop talking about it for days, and I decided it was time for us to take a drive to the Delaware Bay. As we stepped out from the car, strong wind nearly blew my poor forty­five­pound child to the ground.Being a six­year­old mischievous (调皮的) boy, Geordi saw this as an opportunity to showcase his amazing talents, which included falling down, getting up, falling down and, yes, getting up again.This, of course, was always complete with giggles (咯咯笑).The drama came to a sudden stop as Geordi spied the dozens of army­truck­looking creatures in the sand.The next sound effect was “Wow！” as his body froze and his eyes widened with wonder. Geordi ran around excitedly, not knowing which one to check out first.He settled on a horseshoe crab that was on its back, legs waving wildly in the air, desperate for water.“Mom, look at this one！” he screamed.“He's cool！” I pointed out the different body parts of the crab for him, and he listened quietly and absorbed the information.He said, “I really liked him.I think I will name him Spike because he had all those really cool, spiky (尖的) things on his back.” Then I picked up the crab, turned it over to its proper position and placed it at the edge of the water. 注意：1.续写词数应为150 左右； 2．请按如下格式作答。 Geordi asked what I was doing.　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 Geordi spotted many more horseshoe crabs on their backs.　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 [参考范文] Geordi asked what I was doing. I explained to him that if the crab got stuck on its back and could not get back to the water soon, it would die.Horseshoe crabs, I told him, are very important in many ways.Their eggs are a great food source for birds, and their shells and blood have special medical properties that can help many people.Geordi listened intently, his eyes sparkling with concern.He then bent down and cautiously touched Spike's shell with his finger, murmuring, “Go home, Spike.” We watched the horseshoe crab slowly make his way back into the ocean. Geordi spotted many more horseshoe crabs on their backs. He decided that we should help them all.Without fear or hesitation, he began helping me carry them to the water.He was extra careful and gentle, worried that he may hurt one.His sincere concern for the horseshoe crabs touched my heart.When the job was done and it was time to leave, Geordi asked, “Do you think we will ever see Spike again？” “Maybe，” I said, “but now that we have helped him, we know he will be okay even if we don't see him again.” ( 1 ) 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
