课时作业(二)　Unit 1　Period 2 Ⅰ.阅读理解 A On the 70th anniversary of the founding of the People’s Republic of China，Chinese scientist Tu Youyou，winner of the 2015 Nobel Prize for the discovery of artemisinin，has been awarded China’s Medal of the Republic.The medal is the country’s highest honour for outstanding figures that have made great contributions to the construction and the development of the P．R.C. Tu Youyou，born in 1930，has become the first Chinese woman to win a Nobel Prize，for her work in helping to create an anti­malaria medicine.The 84­year­old’s route to the honour has been anything but traditional.In China，she is being called the “three nos” winner：no medical degree，no doctorate，and she’s never worked overseas.In 1967，malaria，a then deadly disease，spread by mosquitoes was decimating Chinese soldiers fighting Americans in the jungles of northern Vietnam.A secret research unit “Mission 523” was formed to find a cure for the illness.Two years later，Tu Youyou was instructed to become the new head of “Mission 523”． “Mission 523” read ancient books carefully for a long time to find historical methods of fighting malaria.When she started her search for an anti­malaria drug，more than 240，000 compounds (化合物) around the world had already been tested，without any success.Finally，the team found a brief reference to one substance，sweet wormwood，which had been used to treat malaria in China around 400 A．D.The team took out one active compound in wormwood，and then tested it.But nothing was effective until Tu Youyou returned to the original ancient text.After another careful reading，she changed the drug recipe one final time，heating the compound without allowing it to reach boiling point. After the drug showed promising results in mice and monkeys，Tu Youyou volunteered to be the first human recipient of the new drug.“In any case，Tu Youyou is consistently praised for her drive and passion”．One former colleague，Lianda Li，says Ms Tu is “unsociable and quite straightforward”，adding that “if she disagrees with something，she will say it.” Another colleague，Fuming Liao，who has worked with Tu Youyou for more than 40 years，describes her as a “tough and stubborn woman”．Stubborn enough to spend decades piecing together ancient texts，she applies them to modern scientific practices.The result has saved millions of lives. 【语篇解读】　本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了发现青蒿素的科学家屠呦呦以及她的事迹。 1．According to Paragraph 2，we can learn that________． A．Tu is the first woman to win a Nobel Prize B．Tu has a medical degree C．Tu’s road to success is not traditional D．Tu discovered a cure for malaria 解析：选C　细节理解题。根据文章第二段中“The 84­year­old’s route to the honour has been anything but traditional.” 可知，这位84岁老者的荣誉之路一点也不传统。故从第二段我们可知，屠呦呦的成功并不传统。故选C。 2．The underlined word “decimating” in Paragraph 2 can be replaced by________． A．encouraging B．killing C．annoying D．benefiting 解析：选B　词义猜测题。根据文章第二段中“In 1967，malaria，a then deadly disease”可知，疟疾是一种致命的疾病，根据“A secret research unit ’Mission 523’ was formed to find a cure for the illness.”可知，一个秘密的小组被成立来寻找治愈这种疾病的方法。由此可知，这种疾病正在杀死与美国人作战的中国士兵。故“decimating”意为“杀死”。故选B。 3．Which of the following statements is true? A．Tu first invented the idea of using sweet wormwood as a cure. B．Tu was inspired by medical textbooks published in northern Vietnam. C．The compound needs to be heated to the boiling point to be effective. D．Over 240，000 compounds were proved ineffective before Tu’s search. 解析：选D　细节理解题。根据文章第三段中“When she started her...success.” 可知，当她开始寻找抗疟疾药物时，全世界已经检测过24万多种化合物，但都没有成功。由此可知，在屠呦呦寻找之前，超过24万种化合物被证明是无效的。故选D。 4．Tu Youyou can be best described as a________person. A．devoted and stubborn B．straightforward and mean C．considerate and tough D．sociable and generous 解析：选A　推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中“Another colleague，...’tough and stubborn woman’．”可知，同事形容屠呦呦是一个顽固的人。根据文章倒数第二段中“After the drug...drug.”可知，在这种药物在老鼠和猴子身上显示出有希望的效果后，屠呦呦自愿成为第一个接受这种新药的人。由此可知，屠呦呦是一个有奉献精神的人。故选A。 B What are scientists？They are often described as gray­haired white­coated dull scholars. But the world has changed.Young scientists are making their voices heard and releasing their powers on the world stage. This is also true in China.Rising stars include new materials expert Gong Yongji，university professor Liu Mingzhen，and biologist Wan Ruixue.At the age of 28 in 2018，Wan Ruixue received the 2018 Science & SciLifeLab Prize for Young Scientists.This is a global prize to reward outstanding scientists at an early stage of their careers. She focuses mainly on biomedicine(生物医学) and artificial intelligence(人工智能).“Both are cutting­edge(前沿) technologies at an early stage of development，” she said. “So，I think they have great potential to be developed.I think in the study of cutting­edge technologies，China and other leading countries in the world are standing on the same starting line.And in the study of structural biology，China is likely to become the leader.” She felt it was her fate to become a biologist.“I grew interested in the natural world，when I was very young，” she said.In 2009，she entered Sun Yat­sen University. In her third year at the university，she realized that she wanted to do something related to biomedicine.So she emailed China’s top biologist Shi Yigong，hoping to join his lab at Tsinghua University. Shi recognized her talent and welcomed her.Years of efforts at the lab have paid off.Her research on the high­definition 3D structure of spliceosome led to a scientific breakthrough. Unlike many of other young scientists who choose to pursue further study abroad，Wan currently has no plan to go overseas. “The whole ecosystem for scientific research is continually improving in China，” she said，adding the country has great science facilities. 【语篇解读】　本文是一篇新闻报道。年轻的科学家们正在世界舞台上发声，并释放他们的力量。在中国也一样，越来越多的年轻科学家投身科学研究，对社会做出了巨大的贡献。他们对中国的科学技术和科学研究充满自信。 5．What does the underlined word “releasing” in Paragraph 2 mean? A．Giving out. B．Getting over. C．Finding out. D．Taking over. 解析：选A　词义猜测题。由第二段“Young scientists are...stage.”可知在世界舞台上，年轻的科学家们正在发出他们的声音，释放他们的力量。从句子中可以看到making their voices heard和releasing their powers并列，可以根据making their voices heard(发出自己的声音)猜测出releasing有“发出，散发”之意，故选A。 6．What does Wan Ruixue feel about the study of cutting­edge technologies in China? A．Anxious. B．Confident. C．Disappointed. D．Satisfied. 解析：选B　推理判断题。由第五段可知万蕊雪认为在前沿技术研究方面，中国和世界上的其他主要国家都站在相同的起跑线上。在结构生物学研究方面，中国可能成为引领者。从这些话可以推断，对中国前沿技术的研究，万蕊雪充满信心。故选B。 7．What can we learn about Wan Ruixue’s journey of becoming a biologist? A．Her teacher led her into the field. B．She finds it’s easier than she thought. C．Her contribution has been recognized. D．She thinks it’s boring but worth trying. 解析：选C　细节理解题。由倒数第三段可知施一公认可了她的才能，欢迎她加入。在实验室数年的努力得到了回报。由此可以看出在万蕊雪成为生物学家的过程中，她的付出得到了认可。故选C。 8．Which can be the best title of the text? A．China’s Breakthrough in Science B．Rising Young Scientists in China C.Wan Ruixue：A Successful Young Scientist D．New Image of Chinese Scientists 解析：选B　主旨大意题。由第二段可知在世界舞台上，年轻的科学家们正在发出他们的声音，释放他们的力量。由第三段可知在中国也一样。冉冉升起的新星包括……从上述内容可以看出关键词是China，Rising stars和Young scientists。所以文章标题是中国正在升起的年轻科学家。故选B。 Ⅱ.阅读七选五 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 A great life doesn’t happen by accident.A great life is the result of allocating (分配) your time，energy and hard work towards what you want your life to be.Stop setting yourself up for stress and failure. 1 Make the following secrets fit your own needs and style and start creating your own great life today!
