Section Ⅰ“Reading and Thinking”的课文习读环节 [课时跟踪检测]　　 Ⅰ.阅读理解 A In 2015, Professor Wang Zhenyi, who specializes in treating Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia (APL) (急性早幼粒细胞白血病), received a letter of thanks from America.The writer of the letter was Mrs Berna­dette Giandomenico, who once suffered from APL but was cured with All­Trans­Retinoic Acid (ATRA) (全反式维甲酸), a treatment developed by Wang and his medical team. Working at Ruijin Hospital, Wang has been devoting his life to the treatment of leukemia.He received the country's highest honor in science and technology in 2010. Born in 1924 in Shanghai, Wang was inspired by a family friend's experience of pursuing a career in medicine as a child.His grandmother's death caused by typhoid further strengthened his resolve to fight against diseases and rescue patients.With outstanding academic performance, Wang became a doctor at Guangci Hospital, today's Ruijin Hospital. In 1978, a research paper from Israeli experts gave Wang inspiration on studying how leukemia cells could become normal.His research didn't progress as expected, though.In 1983, another research paper shed light on his study.As the paper suggested, after being treated with 13­cis­retinoic acid, white blood cells in patients with APL could become normal.Considering the difficulties and high cost of producing a drug made from 13­cis­retinoic acid, Wang's team decided to replace that ingredient with ATRA, and they finally verified its positive effect after several months' experiments.In 1986, the drug was first adopted in treating a five­year­old patient.It turned out successful.After eight years of research, Wang's team eventually made the first breakthrough in the battle against APL. To make sure every APL patient could afford the medicine, Wang has not patented his research result to date.“One cannot be a real doctor if one does not have expertise in medicine，” Wang said in an interview.“However, without a kind heart, a skilled doctor may cause harm to patients.” Having worked in the field of hematopathology (血液病理学) for over 70 years, Wang has been well recognized for his remarkable contribution to saving lives. 语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了获得国家科学技术最高荣誉的王振义医生的个人经历以及他对白血病的研究过程。他在血液病理学领域工作了70多年，为挽救生命做出了卓越的贡献。 1．Why did Mrs Giandomenico write a letter to Professor Wang? A．To ask for medical suggestions. B．To share her battle against APL. C．To express her appreciation. D．To update information about her treatment. 解析：选C　细节理解题。根据第一段中的“a letter of thanks”可知，Giandomenico太太给王教授写信是为了表达她的感激。 2．What increased Wang's determination to become a doctor? A．His grandmother's death. B．His great academic achievement. C．The inspiration from foreign experts. D．The example of a family friend. 解析：选A　细节理解题。根据第三段第二句可知，祖母的离世坚定了他对抗疾病、拯救病人的决心，即成为一名医生的决心。 3．What does the underlined word “verified” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A．Denied.　　　　　　　 B．Assessed. C．Predicted. D．Confirmed. 解析：选D　词义猜测题。画线词后的句子提到，1986年，该药首次用于治疗一名5岁的病人，结果很成功。这说明经过几个月的实验，王教授和他的团队最终证实了ATRA的积极效果。由此可推知，画线词意思为“证实”，与D项意思相近。 4．What is the best title for the text? A．The Application of ATRA B．A Doctor with the Human Touch C．The Chinese Cure for APL Patients D．A Lifesaver with Remarkable Honor 解析：选B　标题归纳题。通读全文尤其是根据倒数第二段最后一句可知，本文主要介绍了王振义医生的医者仁心，故B选项“一个有人情味的医生”最适合作为文章标题。 B Anyone who has ever taken chemistry has studied the periodic table (元素周期表)．Most people who have memorized the elements in the periodic table have probably not given any thought to who created it.In 1869，Dmitri Mendeleev published the very first periodic table.Although there were a few people who attempted to create a periodic table，Mendeleev's table was the most complete of all of them. Dmitri Mendeleev was born on February 8, 1834 in Tobolsk Governorate，the Russian Empire.His father was a teacher of philosophy and fine arts.Mendeleev was the youngest of more than a dozen children.His father lost his teaching position when he became blind.His mother had to go to work to support the family by restarting the family glass factory. That worked out until Dmitri Mendeleev was 15, when the factory burned down.As a teenager，Mendeleev was educated at Main Pedagogical Institute in Saint Petersburg, Russia.As a 21­year­old in 1855，he wrote a textbook called Organic Chemistry and won the Demidov Prize, making him a major leader in the world of Russian chemistry education.Mendeleev earned a Master's degree in chemistry in 1856. On April 4,1862, right after he wrote his first book, Dmitri Mendeleev proposed (求婚) to Feozva Nikitichna Leshcheva.The couple got married three weeks later in Saint Petersburg.They ended their marriage nine years later after having a daughter.Nearly 20 years after he married his first wife，he got married to Anna Ivanova Popova.Mendeleev had four children from his marriage to Anna Popova Mendeleev.A couple of years before his death，Dmitri Mendeleev was awarded membership of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences.Despite many scientists who worked on their own periodic tables ahead of Mendeleev, he has gone down in history as the father of the periodic table. 语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了发明元素周期表的科学家门捷列夫的生平。 5．What do we know about Dmitri Mendeleev's family from the text? A．His father was a chemistry teacher. B．His mother became blind later. C．Their factory burned down when Dmitri Mendeleev was 21. D．Dmitri Mendeleev was from a big family. 解析：选D　推理判断题。由第二段中的“Mendeleev was the youngest of more than a dozen children.”可知，门捷列夫来自一个大家庭。 6．What made Dmitri Mendeleev a major leader in Russian chemistry education? A．He created the periodic table. B．His textbook won the Demidov Prize. C．He earned a Master's degree in chemistry. D．His first book was published. 解析：选B　细节理解题。由第三段中的“As a 21­year­old in 1855，he wrote a textbook called Organic Chemistry and won the Demidov Prize，making him a major leader in the world of Russian chemistry education.”可知，他编写的教材获奖，从而使他成为俄罗斯化学教育的带头人。 7．When did Dmitri Mendeleev become a member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences? A．Right after he wrote his first book. B．Before he got married to Feozva Nikitichna Leshcheva. C．Nine years after his first daughter was born. D．Several years before his death. 解析：选D　细节理解题。由最后一段中的“A couple of years before his death, Dmitri Mendeleev was awarded membership of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences.”可知，在他去世前的几年，他成为瑞典皇家科学院的一员。 8．What is the main idea of the text? A．The process of Dmitri Mendeleev's creation of the periodic table. B．The whole life of Dmitri Mendeleev. C．Dmitri Mendeleev's contribution to the Russian chemistry society. D．The effect of the periodic table on chemistry. 解析：选B　主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本文介绍了“元素周期表之父”门捷列夫的生平。 Ⅱ.阅读七选五 How to become a scientist Be curious.Scientists choose to become scientists because they are curious about the world around them and how the things in it work.This curiosity leads them to investigate the how and why behind what they see. __9__ Becoming a scientist takes a long time.There are very few careers that take longer than this one.Even when you're doing with your education, you still have to get research under your belt.If you're an instant­gratification (即时满足) type of person, this may not be the right career for you. Be diligent and persevere.It's been said that jobs in science are the lowest paid in the US.What this is getting at is that because of the long path to success, for a while you won't be living lavishly (奢华地)．__10__ Have the need to always keep learning.__11__ Whether it's reading peer­reviewed journals, attending seminars, or working toward getting yourself published, you'll always be learning. __12__ In those years of waiting for results, you need to constantly be looking for the smallest changes in what you expect to see.Your eye needs to be focused and ready at all times. Think differently.Think back to Newton's apple falling on his head or Archimedes jumping into his tub and displacing water.Most people would think nothing of these events, but these men saw something else, something no one else was seeing at the time.__13__ A．Observation skills are also necessary. B．Be patient in climbing the career ladder. C．Things are going to be tough for a while. D．Then you're probably made of the right stuff. E．As the saying goes, “Where there is a will, there is a way.” F．Actually what every scientist does is to seek out knowledge. G．To make progress in human knowledge, you have to think differently. 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章就如何成为一名科学家提供了几点建议，如：要有好奇心和耐心，要勤奋并且持之以恒等。 9．选B　根据空后内容“要成为科学家需要很长的时间”可知，B项“攀登事业阶梯要有耐心”可作为本段的主旨句。 10．选C　上文提到“这是因为在通往成功的漫长道路上，有一段时间，你不会过着奢华的生活”。由此可知，C项“有一段时间情况可能很艰难”承接上文，符合语境。 11．选F　本段的主旨句是“要不断学习”。F项“实际上每个科学家所做的都是寻求知识”与语境相符，并承接下文内容。 12．选A　根据下文的“在等待结果的那些年里，你需要不断地寻找你期望看到的最小变化”可知，有观察的技能是必要的，所以A项可作为本段主旨句。 13．选G　本段的主旨句是“要有不同的思维方式”。G项“要想在人类知识上取得进步，你必须有不同的思维方式”与主旨句相呼应。 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
