课时作业(四)　Unit 1　Period 4 Ⅰ.阅读理解 A mother of nine who started medical school when her youngest child was 4 years old graduated with her degree and plans to be a neurosurgeon (神经外科医生). Sarah Merrill，now 41，said her journey to medical school began at age 17.She then met her husband and got married.Merrill first thought about going to school part­time to get a degree，but later she decided to follow her dream of attending medical school.Certainly，it was a challenge.Speaking of her successfully returning to university，Merrill thought it was credited to her family largely.“When I was accepted at Mayo Clinic Alix School of Medicine，we moved from Pennsylvania to Arizona，” said Merrill，who is moving to Indiana with her family to begin her residency (实习期) in neurosurgery.“In fact，they volunteered these movements.I know it was tough for all of us.” Merrill and her children often have “homework parties” where they study for their own courses.Merrill’s choice has given a stimulus to her children.Merrill felt touched knowing her 11­year­old daughter wants to become a surgeon and overhearing her son tell his friends his mom’s going to be a cool brain surgeon，though he doesn’t understand that really. Merrill’s next step into a neurosurgery residency will take her into a male­dominated field where only 5% of board certified neurosurgeons are women.Dr.Michele Halyard at Mayo Clinic Alix School of Medicine said Merrill was known as a focused student.Halyard said，“If you can deal with nine children and keep your reason，the residency should be a piece of cake because no amount of stress will make you fail.” Merrill had considered choosing a more family­friendly specialty，but，again，chose to dream big and follow her original pursuit.It’s the same advice she would give to all.“Set the goal that is what you’re really enthusiastic about，and it helps to think small.If you know what your priorities are，focus on the next step.Then you’ll get where you want to go.” 【语篇解读】　本文是一篇记叙文。Sarah Merrill是一位有九个孩子的妈妈，在她最小的孩子只有4岁时，Merrill决定追逐梦想上医学院。在历尽艰难获得医学学位后，Merrill选择步入只有5%的女性医生取得职业资格证书的神经外科，成为一名神经外科医生。 1．Why does Merrill speak of their movements? A．To show the support of her family. B.To stress her determination to be a doctor. C．To reflect difficulties in attending college. D.To describe the process of pursuing her dream. 解析：选A　推理判断题。根据第二段的“Speaking of her successfully returning to university，Merrill thought it was credited to her family largely ...In fact，they volunteered these movements.(谈到她成功重返大学，Merrill认为这在很大程度上归功于她的家庭。Merrill说：“当我被梅奥诊所阿利克斯医学院录取时，我们从宾夕法尼亚州搬到了亚利桑那州。”她将和家人一起搬到印第安纳州，开始她的神经外科住院医生实习期。事实上，这些搬家是他们自愿的)”可知，Merrill认为她能成功回到校园主要归功于她的家人，为了方便她学习，Merrill一家从宾夕法尼亚州搬到亚利桑那州，现在为了她的工作又要搬到印第安纳州，并且这些搬家是她的家人主动提出的。由此可推断，Merrill提到他们的搬家是为了说明家人的支持。故选A。 2．What does the underlined word “stimulus” mean in Paragraph 3? A．Entertainment. B．Inspiration. C．Commitment. D．Confusion. 解析：选B　词义猜测题。根据画线词后的“knowing her 11­year­old daughter wants to become a surgeon and overhearing her son tell his friends his mom’s going to be a cool brain surgeon，though he doesn’t understand that really(得知她11岁的女儿想成为一名外科医生，无意中听到她的儿子告诉他的朋友，他的妈妈将成为一名很酷的脑外科医生，尽管他真的不明白)”可知，Merrill的11岁的女儿想成为一名外科医生，她的儿子告诉朋友们他的妈妈会成为一名很酷的脑外科医生，由此可推断，Merrill决定成为一名神经外科医生的选择激励了孩子们。stimulus意为“激励”，inspiration“鼓舞人心的人(或事物)”与画线词含义相近。故选B。 3．What does Halyard mean in Paragraph 4? A．Merrill will have more stress to handle. B．Staying focused and sensible is key to success. C.Being Mom makes Merrill a better doctor. D.She is confident of Merrill’s being a neurosurgeon. 解析：选D　推理判断题。根据第四段中的“If you can deal with nine children and keep your reason，the residency should be a piece of cake because no amount of stress will make you fail.(如果你能同时照顾9个孩子并保持理智，实习应该是小菜一碟，因为再大的压力也不会让你失败)”可知，Halyard认为如果你能应对九个孩子并保持理智，那么神经外科医生的实习期应该是小菜一碟，因为即使再多的压力也不会让你失败。由此可推断，她对Merrill通过实习成为神经外科医生充满信心。故选D。 4．What does Merrill suggest at last? A．Starting with small things. B．Getting your priorities right. C．Being true to your passion. D．Having the courage to dream big. 解析：选C　细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“...chose to dream big and follow her original pursuit.It’s the same advice she would give to all.’Set the goal that is what you’re really enthusiastic about’(选择了远大的梦想，并遵循了她最初的追求。这也是她给所有人的建议。’设定你真正感兴趣的目标’)”可知，Merrill建议遵循最初的追求，设定真正热爱的目标。故选C。 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。 Imagine that you are in a remote village somewhere with no medical clinic. 1 Once the doctors get to you，they examine you and take blood samples，but they won’t be able to help you until they take the samples back to the hospital to find out what is wrong. 2 Thanks to engineer Andy Ozcan，many people may never be in this situation.He has invented an app that turns your mobile phone into a diagnostic(诊断的)tool. Ozcan’s invention is important because it is very accurate and easy to use.In many remote places，even if doctors have microscopes and other instruments to help them make diagnosis，there may still be other problems.Many doctors，for example，don’t have enough training to correctly interpret what they see. 3 With Ozcan’s mobile phone app，health workers can take a special photo of a blood sample and send it to a central computer at a hospital.The computer will then automatically interpret the photo and send a diagnosis back in a few minutes. 4 His technology only requires a mobile phone and an Internet connection.As more than four billion people already have cell phones，the cost of establishing the diagnostic system is fairly low. By inventing a medical tool that uses existing technology—mobile phones—Ozcan has developed a medical tool that is both practical and economical.Therefore，it can be effectively almost anywhere. 5 A．As a result，they may diagnose illnesses incorrectly. B．People are trying to reduce the cost of this new medical tool. C．This tool has become much more popular all around the world. D．Another reason that Ozcan’s invention is important is that it is inexpensive. E．You become very sick and must wait days until a mobile medical unit arrives to help. F．Ozcan’s simple，costeffective tool might just save millions of lives around the world. G．Even though you may only have a simple infection，you might die because of the delay. 【语篇解读】　本文为说明文。主要介绍了安迪·奥兹坎发明的一种将手机变成诊断工具的应用程序。这种发明很精确并易于使用。这种经济又实惠的医疗工具可以在世界的任何地方使用，能拯救全世界数百万人的生命。 1．解析：选E　根据上文“想象一下，你在一个偏僻的村庄，没有医疗诊所”及下句“一旦医生找到你，他们会给你检查并取血样，但是直到他们把血样带回医院，找出问题所在，他们才能帮助你”可推断出“你生病了，但是必须等几天医疗队才来看病”。分析选项可知E项符合题意。 2．解析：选G　根据上文的内容“如果你生病要等好几天医生才来看病……并送医院检查才能诊断。”可推断出“即使只是简单的小感染，可能也会因为耽搁而死”，分析选项可知G项符合题意。 3．解析：选A　根据上文“In many remote places...there may still be other problems.Many doctors，for example，don’t have enough training to correctly interpret what they see.”可知，“在许多偏远的地方，即使医生有仪器帮忙，仍然会出现其他问题。例如，许多医生没有受到足够多的培训，不能正确解释他们所看到的”，由此可判断出“这样他们可能会出现误诊”，分析选项可知A项(因此，他们可能错误地诊断疾病)符合题意。 4．解析：选D　第二段说奥兹坎的发明重要的一个原因，第三段应当是另一个原因。分析选项可知D项(奥兹坎的发明重要的另一个原因是它不昂贵)应该是正确的。把D放入文中，符合题意。可知，本小题是这一段的主题句。根据本段的内容可知的发明成本相当低。D项与本段有词义复现，inexpensive即为fairly low。 5．解析：选F　根据上文 “Ozcan has developed a medical tool that is both practical and economical.Therefore，it can be effectively almost anywhere.”可推断出，这种简单的、成本低的工具可以在全世界救人，分析选项可知F项(奥兹坎简单、有效的工具可能会拯救全世界数百万人的生命)符合题意。 Ⅲ.完形填空 Herman Travis，55，lives in Holly Courts，a low­income neighbourhood in San Francisco.Every Tuesday，Travis 1 a shopping cart with groceries from a local food bank(食品赈济站).Then he makes home 2 to his elderly and disabled neighbours.He started doing it in 2007 and when he first 3 ，people were doubtful.They didn’t welcome it as he had 4 ．“At first people were 5 ．They didn’t let me in.However，after they got to really know me they would just be 6 to see me，” Travis once told me.
