高中英语选择性必修第四册（外研版） 第四部分写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节（满分15分）》 Dear Lucy, How is your survey on mobile payment going?I'm glad I can help with it. It is generally believed that China is the largest mobile payment market.Nowhere else is the cashless trend more obvious than in China.Most of us are used to paying by scanning QR codes whatever we buy-books,clothes,and electronic devices,to name a few,which is a glimpse into the life of most Chinese like me and my family. With the widespread use of mobile payment,it is the most convenient and safest way to pay.We rarely need to carry a wallet or cash at all.Besides,never will we worry about getting fake notes or having to count change.In short,mobile payment has greatly changed people's lives in China. Personally,I think mobile payment should be encour- aged.First,it has won over consumers with its conve- nience.Another advantage is that there are often discounts if you make mobile payment,as major online payment platforms are competing to have more consumers use their service. I hope my explanation can be of some help to you. Wish you good luck. Yours faithfully. Li Hua 第二节（满分25分） Paragraph 1: Then we drove to our friends'house,made our way to the door with our box and bags,and knocked eagerly.When they opened the door,all four of them were there,clearly surprised by our visit.As we stepped inside the kitchen, they found the box,and the parents'jaws nearly dropped. Handing the items over to them,my mother said,"We just wanted to bless you."Then my mother hugged the wife and patted her softly on the shoulder.After that,my mother naturally helped her friend to put the groceries in place, smiling at her friend from time to time. Paragraph 2: Looking at my mother,I felt proud to be the daughter of this incredible woman.She was the one who had worked so hard to pay for the groceries that she didn't hesitate to give to those in need.Because of her,we were able to share this amazing experience.What a great example she set for me that day!Though our intention was to bless our friends, thirteen years later I still feel like I'm the one who re- ceived the greatest blessing:one of my most cherished memories with my mother. >"Unit5单元测试卷 第一部分听力（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共5小题：每小题1.5分，满分7.5分）》 1~5 ABABA 第二节（共15小题；每小题1.5分，满分22.5分） 124 6~10 BBABA 11~15 CABAC 16~20 AACBA Text 1 M:Have you heard about the wildfires near Los An- geles? W:Yes.I read an article about them in the news this morning.They're spreading very fast due to strong winds. Many people have been forced to leave their homes. Text 2 M:We hear so much about the consequences of hav- ing too much waste plastic around us,don't we? W:Indeed,not only does it cause a mess,but also wildlife,particularly ocean animals are at risk when they eat it. M:Can't agree more!We should use plastics as little as possible. Text 3 M:What were you doing at that time? W:I was cooking some eggs.Suddenly the table be- gan to move.The cups fell onto the ground and were bro- ken.The light went out suddenly.I couldn't help crying. M:Did you go out at once? W:No,I couldn't find my way in the darkness.So I stayed in the bathroom. Text 4 W:Have you seen the sea? M:Of course I have!It's all around us. W:No!I mean,have you seen how dirty the water is?It looks as if it isn't clean enough to swim here. Text 5 W:Every year,there are a large number of forest fires,and the causes are not mysterious. M:Yeah.Most of them are caused by human activi- ties,like people throwing away burning cigarettes. Text 6 W:Are you making preparations for the typhoon? This year is going to be a bad one. M:I heard the government expects over 200 million in damages.How will we recover?I remember supplies were short when the last typhoon happened.People bought toilet paper in advance,and they sold it at double the price after- wards,even though that's illegal. W:I find it funny that no matter how advanced our society gets,nature can still cause some real damage. M:That's why I'm planning to get these plastic sheets to cover my windows in case they break Text 7 M:Whoa!Did you just feel that earthquake? W:Yeah!It felt like a pretty big one! M:I've never experienced an earthquake before.I have to admit that I was pretty scared just now. W:Ah!It was no big deal.That one was tiny com- pared to some of the ones when I was a kid. M:What was the biggest one that you remember? W:Well,in 1989,there was a huge one.I think it measured 7.1 on the Richter scale.I remember the whole house shaking.Luckily,there wasn't much damage to our house,but some of my friends were left homeless. M:So how big do you think this one was? W:It's hard to say.Usually if it feels strong,it's at least a 4.0. Text 8 W:Kevin,let's go to the beach! M:The beach?I'm too lazy to go there.Why don't we go somewhere else,Betty? W:There is some community work to be done there. We can clean up the beach.We can collect a lot of plastic garbage,too M:What for?It's the government's responsibility.Be- sides,why should we collect all of the plastic garbage? W:Kevin,you don't know the harm the plastic does to the ocean.Plastic can pollute the ocean and,in turn, harm fish and other ocean life.We should care about what happens to the ocean.Didn't you hear about that dead whale's stomach that was full of plastic garbage? M:Oh,yes.I heard about that.But what will we do with the plastic garbage we collect? W:We will take all of the plastic to a company that can recycle it. Text 9 W:Good evening!!Our“Person of the Week”is Kevin Olsen.And we're glad to have Kevin here with us this evening.Kevin lives and works on the coast of Wash- ington.His job is unusual in some ways.Part of his work is to rescue whales,fish,and sea birds when they get into trouble with pollution.Welcome to the program,Kevin. M:Glad to be here. W:What do you do in your job? M:I spend a lot of my time with sea animals,trying to learn what things they need in the environment.If we know what they need,we can help them survive in the fu- ture. W:Can you tell us something about the disaster a short time ago? M:The whales,small fish,and birds all suffered in that disaster.The birds had oil on their wings,so they couldn't fly.And they couldn't eat the fish because the fish were covered with oil.It took a long time for many people to work on the cleanup. W:Why did you choose this job?Is it because you were concerned about sea animals? M:Yes,I was always interested in the world of the ocean and how the plants and animals fit together in their system. W:Thank you,Kevin,for coming and talking to us this evening. M:My pleasure. Text 10 M:Good morning everyone.This is radio 4QR,Alan Parker speaking.We all know how harmful it is to the en- vironment to throw rubbish away and not recycle,but many 参考答案。 of us don't do anything about it!

26.B【解析】细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的 "After that,I couldn't ignore our plastic problem.I shifted my focus and started to protect our greatest resource,the ocean,”says Alison.(“从那以后，我无法忽视我们的塑 料问题。我转移了注意力，开始保护我们最大的资

people,extreme sports are extreme simply because they take more skill than what an average person has.An athlete with skill and training makes an extreme thing be- come a daily routine,which does not

30.A【解析】推理判断题。根据第四段“Some view parkour,the sports of running,jumping and climbing under,around and through buildings,as an extreme sport, while it is more of a life philosophy,where the athlete does

height,of course.Skate- boarding is relatively safe,but if you constantly find ridiculous places to practice on,like the fence of a bridge, then things can get very complicated.The extreme part de- 126 pends on the athlete..(一些人把跑酷一一跑、跳、爬建筑 物下面、周围和穿过建筑物的运动一视为一种极限运 动，但它更像是一种生活哲学，运动员不必做任何危险 的事情。自由独攀，也就是在没有安全装备的情况下攀 爬岩石或冰面，绝对是致命的，一次滑倒几乎就意味着 死亡，当然，这取决于高度。滑板相对安全，但如果你 经常找一些荒谬的地方练习，比如桥的栅栏，那么事情 就会变得非常复杂。极限部分取决于运动员。)”可推 知，在第四段中，列举了几种极限运动来解释危险取决 于运动员。故选A。 31.D【解析】主旨大意题。根据最后一段“To sum- marize,yes,extreme sports are dangerous,but the danger depends on the athlete,their choice of sport,direction

的选择、他们采取的方向以及环境。有些事情是我们无 法控制的，而有些事情我们可以通过锻炼和更健康的风 险选择来影响。)”及前文论述可知，作者认为极限运动 的危险和很多因素都有关，不能简单地把极限运动和危 险等同起来。由此可知，“Are Extreme Sports Really That Dangerous?(极限运动真的那么危险吗？)”适合作本文 最佳标题。故选D。 32.C【解析】细节理解题。根据第二段“The tech- nology is particularly beneficial in areas with limited visi- bility such as the rainforest in Maya site,as lasers can enter the heavy tree canopy,the thick cover formed by the leafy upper branches in a forest.(这项技术在能见度有限的地 区尤其有用，比如玛雅遗址的雨林，因为激光可以进人 厚重的树冠，即森林中由枝叶繁茂的上层树枝形成的厚 厚的覆盖物。)”可知，研究人员在调查中使用激光雷达 是因为它能轻易地将光线穿过森林。故选C。 33.D【解析】主旨大意题。根据第三段“The lidar data showed 'for

large platforms and pyramids,along with canals and reservoirs used for water collection.(卡洛斯在 研究中写道，激光雷达数据‘首次显示了一个政治和经 济一体化的地区，在西半球的其他地方从未见过'。利 用扫描数据，研究小组确定了该地区分布着1000多个 定居点。它们由长达100英里的堤道相连，玛雅人可能 是步行走过的。他们还发现了几个大型平台和金字塔的 遗迹，以及用于收集水的运河和水库。)”可知，第三段 的主要内容是通过观察玛雅地区的发现。故选D。 34.D【解析】推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“For the Maya,the Mirador-Calakmul Karst Basin was the 'Goldilocks Zone',"Ross Ensley wrote,partner of Carlos, a geologist from the Institute for Geological Study of the Maya Lowlands in Houston,Texas."The Maya settled in this region because it had the right mix of uplands for set- tlement and lowlands for agriculture.”(“对玛雅人来说， Mirador-Calakmul喀斯特盆地是‘适居带'，”罗斯·恩斯 利写道，他是卡洛斯的合伙人，卡洛斯是德克萨斯州休 斯顿玛雅低地地质研究所的地质学家。“玛雅人在这个 地区定居，因为这里有适合定居的高地和适合农业的低 地。”)可推知，玛雅人对在哪里定居做出了明智的选 择。故选D。 35.C【解析】主旨大意题。根据第一段“While conducting a survey by airplane of northern Guatemala,re- searchers detected an ancient Maya site..(研究人员乘飞机 在危地马拉北部进行调查时，发现了一个古玛雅遗 址。)”以及第二段“The findings were the result of the survey using

察玛雅地区的发现。可知，C选项“激光雷达的革命性 使用揭示了玛雅定居点”最符合文章标题。故选C。 第二节（共5小题：每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 36~40 DECGF 36.D【解析】考查过渡句。上文说东西方文化真的 有很大不同，D项说明了原因，符合语境。故选D。 37.E【解析】考查承上启下句。根据“Both of the two cultures are developed by

B Born to an adventure-loving mom and a National Geographic's photographer dad, Alison Teal was already exploring the world as a baby.The family traveled the globe staying not at five-star hotels but in a six-foot- wide tent.From cold mountaintops to hot jungles,they completely involved themselves in local nature and culture. Between journeys,they would return home to a quiet and faraway part of the Big Island of Hawaii,where they built a solar- powered oceanfront rest center.The front yard was the ocean,and Alison's friends were dolphins.She would dive into the water and release seaweed.A dolphin would catch it on its nose or fin and throw it to the next player. Over the years,the dolphins grew to trust Alison.They looked for her and came close to her in the water. After graduating from university,she continued her world travels.Her adventurous childhood and life skills landed her a spot in the reality show Naked and Afraid,in which she and her partner had to live on an 48 unwelcoming island for 21 days.Alison's deep knowledge of how to live in a wilderness saved the pair,but what shocked her was the amount of trash washed upon the shore. "After that,I couldn't ignore our plastic problem.I shifted my focus and started to protect our greatest resource,the ocean,"says Alison.Swimming in familiar waters back home,she also found her dolphin friends were no longer tossing (seaweed to each other, but plastic."That was distressing,"she says. Her book,Alison's Adventures:Your Passport to the World,is fled with travel tales and environmental lessons.She also offers free adventure films to go along with each chapter on her social media.Alison believes all of us can make changes to protect the Earth and,in turn,those we love."Whether you're a lawyer,a gardener,an artist,a teacher or a surfer,we can all help in our own ways,"she says. 24.What can we infer from the first paragraph? A.Alison Teal had a comfortable life when she was young. B.Alison Teal was fond of photography when she was young. C.Alison Teal's parents were strict with her when she was young. D.Alison Teal led a life close to nature when she was young. 25.What alarmed Alison Teal during her parti- cipation in the reality show? A.The amount of trash washed upon the shore. B.The unwelcoming island where they had to live. C.The lack of resources in the wilderness. D.The dangerous situations they encoun- tered. 26.When did Alison Teal decide to shift her focus and start protecting the ocean? A.During a journey with her parents. B.After her participation in a show. C.Before her graduation from university. D.When visiting the Big Island of Hawaii. 27.What's Alison Teal's opinion about protec- ting the Earth? A.Everyone can contribute in their own ways B.Only certain professions can make a difference. C.It is impossible to make any significant changes. D.It is the responsibility of governments and organizations. C Even though people have been paralyzed (瘫痪的)playing sports like rugby and football,extreme sports take the whole ordeal (磨难)to the next level..Sports like downhil cycling are very dangerous because one would be going downhill,over rocky or dirt zone, Unt5单元测试卷。 through forests,even at potentially deadly speeds.A slip up could be your downfall. Nobody who gets into extreme sports goes with the desire to do harm to themselves. With that,athletes train for years and years before they attempt anything extreme.To most people,extreme sports are extreme simply because they take more skill than what an average person has.An athlete with skill and training makes an extreme thing become a daily routine,which does not wipe out the danger,but greatly reduces it. Even when there is a lot of skill involved, things might not go the athlete's way,not at all.Luck and circumstances have a lot to do with how things develop,whether above 8,000 meters or in a wood,going downhill.In some places,crossing the street is an extreme sport, considering how wild traffic can get. Some view parkour,the sports of running, jumping and climbing under,around and through buildings,as an extreme sport,while it is more of a life philosophy,where the athlete does not have to do anything remotely dangerous.Free soloing,which means climbing a rock or ice face without safety gear,is absolutely deadly,where one slip means almost certain death,depending on the height, of course.Skateboarding is relatively safe,but if you constantly find ridiculous places to practice on,like the fence of a bridge,then 49 高中英语选择性必修第四册（外研版） things can get very complicated.The extreme part depends on the athlete. To summarize,yes,extreme sports are dangerous,but the danger depends on the athlete,their choice of sport,direction in which they take it,as well as the circumstances. Some things are out of our control,while others we can influence through exercise and healthier risk choices. 28.Why is downhill cycling mentioned in Paragraph 1? A.To call for attention to extreme sports. B.To introduce the origin of extreme sports. C.To illustrate the danger of extreme sports. D.To show the complexity of the extreme sports. 29.What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about regarding extreme sports? A.Extreme sports differ from one another. B.Skill matters a lot in maintaining safety. C.Athlete's luck is a key factor that influences safety. D.Extreme sports are more dangerous than regular sports. 30.In Paragraph 4,several extreme sports are listed to. A.explain danger depends on the athlete B.show free soloing is the most dangerous C.compare which one involves the most 50 skill D.demonstrate how to choose an extreme sport 31.Which of the following is the best title of the text? A.Do Extreme Sports Test Your Courage? B.Why Should Extreme Sports Be Banned? C.Why Do We Love Extreme Sports So Much? D.Are Extreme Sports Really That Dange- rous? D While conducting a survey by airplane of northern Guatemala,researchers detected an ancient Maya site."We can now see the entire landscape of the Maya region in this section of Guatemala,"said Carlos Morales- Aguilar,one of the researchers from the Department of Geography and the Environment at the University of Texas. The findings were the result of the survey using lidar(雷达)，or light detection and ranging,which has been revolutionary for studying historic sites.In lidar,lasers are sent out and the reflected light is used to create imagery of a landscape.The technology is particularly beneficial in areas with limited visibility such as the rainforest in Maya site, as lasers can enter the heavy tree canopy,the thick cover formed by the leafy upper branches in a forest. The lidar data showed "for the first time an area that was integrated politically and economically,and never seen before in other places in the Western Hemisphere(西半球)，” Carlos wrote in the study.Using data from the scans,the team identified more than 1,000 settlements dotting the region.They were interconnected by 100 miles of causeways that the Maya likely travelled on foot.They also detected the remains of several large platforms and pyramids,along with canals and reservoirs used for water collection. So what made this region so attractive that the Maya would want to settle there in the first place? "For the Maya,the Mirador-Calakmul Karst Basin was the‘Goldilocks Zone',”Ross Ensley wrote,partner of Carlos,a geologist from the Institute for Geological Study of the Maya Lowlands in Houston,Texas.The Maya settled in this region because it had the right mix of uplands for settlement and lowlands for agriculture."Uplands lie above the level where flooding occurs.They provided a source for limestone,their primary building material,and dry land to live on.The lowlands are mostly seasonal swamps(沼泽)， which provided space for wetland agriculture as well as organic-rich soil for use in terraced agriculture. Researchers hope lidar technology will Unt5单元测试卷。⊙ help them explore sections of Guatemala that have remained a mystery for centuries. 32.Why did the researchers use lidar in the survey? A.It detects a wide range of lasers. B.It pictures quick and clear imagery. C.It passes lights through forests easily. D.It improves the visibility of rainforests. 33.What is Paragraph 3 mainly about? A.Why Maya drew great attention. B.How Maya people made a living. C.The research process after surveying the Maya. D.The findings through observing the Maya region. 34.What can we infer about the Maya people according to Ross Ensley? A.They transformed the land to survive. B.They were good at upland agriculture. C.They preferred to build houses using limestone. D.They made a sound choice about where to settle. 35.Which is the best title for the text? A.The Perfect Habitat for the Maya People B.The Secrets of the Ancient Maya Civili- sation C.Revolutionary Use of Lidar Reveals Maya Settlements D.Lidar Technology Unlocks New Disco- veries of Rainforests 51 高中英语选择性必修第四册（外研版） 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分 12.5分) 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。 Different Cultures The cultures of the East and the West really distinguish themselves from each other a lot.36. The origin of the Eastern culture is mainly from two countries:China and India.Both of the two cultures are developed by rivers-the Yellow River in China and the Indus River in India.37. When the two mother rivers gave birth to the Eastern culture,another famous culture was brought up on the Mesopotamian plain (美索不达米亚平原)一the Mesopotamian Civilization.This civilization later on developed into the cultures of Ancient Rome and Ancient Greek.38. Like the Chinese culture, the European culture also crossed waters. When the British settled down in America, their culture went with them over the Atlantic Ocean.So the American culture doesn't distinguish itself from the European culture a lot. 39. Take the language system for example.In the East,most languages belong to the pictographic language while the Western languages are mostly based on the Latin system.Other causes like human race 52 differences count as well.But what's more, due to the far distance and the steep areas between the East and the West,the two cultures seldom communicate until recent centuries.So they grew up totally in their own ways with almost no interference(干预) from the other. The differences are everywhere.40. But different cultures make the world in the 21st century more varied.The cultural gap should not be the obstacle to the civilization of human beings.It ought to be the motivation for our going farther. A.Let us work together to keep a variety of cultures. B.One important thing is to learn about the other's culture. C.And these two are well-known as the base of the European culture. D.This is because the culture systems are two separate systems on the whole. E.They helped the two cultures develop for centuries and form their own styles. F.They are obvious and affect people's ways of thinking and their views of the world. G.At the same time,some other diff- erences add to the cultural differences. 第三部分语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15 分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、 C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 As a writer on an adventure sports maga- zine,I'd always refuse to do the adventurous stuff myself.I preferred to observe others and 41 their experiences to readers.Thus, when I was challenged to 42 a mountain in aid of charity-and to write about it afterwards-I was 43.
