单元过关检测卷(四) [本卷满分120分，考试用时100分钟] 第一部分　阅读理解(共两节，满分35分) 第一节　(共10小题；每小题2.5分，满分25分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 A As a boy，I wanted to go to the South Pole.As a teenager，I decided I'd like to go to the North Pole too.And yet，I haven't done either.It had taken me 31 years to just make it to the Arctic. I was traveling with a film crew from Northern Ireland，following the footsteps of Lord Dufferin，who，in the 1850s，sailed from Scotland to the Arctic.As an early adventure tourist，he was driven by the desire to see what lay at the ends of the world.As we sailed north，icebergs of the size of buses floated past our small boat.Finally，we reached our destination—English Bay，where Dufferin landed and stepped off onto the horseshoeshaped beach. This was what I'd dreamt of: standing somewhere so pure and primitive.However，for many early polar explorers，the results were far less pleasant.The South Pole，in particular，was a source of extreme danger. My childhood interest in the South Pole was fueled by the unsuccessful but heroic adventures of Ernest Shackleton.He died in 1922 while preparing for his fourth adventure.The stories of Robert Falcon Scott are also wellknown: he and his four companions died on their way back from the South Pole.So why do explorers put themselves at such risk? Much of it seems to lie in the purity of the challenge.Scott talked of the appeal of a place that had been “unreached and unseen by humans”．“With a view over shining lands covered by ice sheets of inconceivable (难以想象的)extent，you have the feeling of living over the control of death，” said Fridtjof Nansen，a Norwegian explorer. On the homeward journey the weather turned bad and we were left for a few days at the mercy of a storm.We experienced a taste of helplessness when faced with the raw power of nature.We should be grateful for the great explorers' spirit and stories.I know I am.

Today，sand painting (沙画)，an interesting art form，will be introduced to you. Sand painting is the art of using sand to make a fixed or unfixed painting.Maybe we all played fixed sand paintings as we were young.We first drew a simple picture，then we brushed glue (胶水) onto it，and at last we poured colored sand onto the glue in order to make it fixed. Unfixed sand painting has a long cultural history around the world.People pour sand on a surface to make paintings or use some tools to draw pictures in the sand directly.They are often temporary (临时的).Different people draw sand paintings to express different meanings: love of nature，admiration for beauty，etc. Sand painting has gained in popularity over recent years.On the stage，sand painting performers make a series of images by drawing lines and figures in the sand with their hands.The series of images is used to tell a story. Kseniya Simonova，who is from Ukraine，is one of the greatest sand painting performers in the world.Simonova said that she never dreamed she'd become a sand artist，and that when she began practicing，she nearly gave it up.But she persevered，caring for a household by day and training by night.You Are Always Nearby is one of the most famous performances of Simonova.It is a story about a young couple separated by a war in which the soldier is tragically killed.But later he returns in spirit to watch over his wife and child.This performance makes all audiences cry. Art is everywhere and is not far away from common people.The art of painting is in our life，even in the sand.

There are a few tips to make communication easier between parents and their children.As parents，you should listen to what children say carefully and pay much attention to it.Make them feel that their views really matter，which not only helps your discussions with your children but brings you closer to them.Meanwhile，try to remember some of the negative feelings you experienced as a teenager and apply them to your children's situation.Never make negative remarks to your children about what they have said or done.Remember how much courage it would have taken for your children to come and talk to you about their personal issues.If your children are unusually angry，it may be time to spend a bit of quality time with your children determining what is wrong and where the anger comes from.
