Unit 3 Section Ⅲ Using language 课时跟踪检测-【新课程学案】2025-2026学年高中英语必修第二册配套练习word（外研版）

Section Ⅲ　Using language Ⅰ.阅读理解 Like all big cities, Paris has a traffic problem：lots of cars, lots of traffic jams and lots of pollution from exhaust fumes (废气)．So the city began a plan to improve the situation. Under the Velib plan (‘Velib’ comes from vélo liberté， or ‘bicycle freedom’) people can take a bicycle, use it for as long as they want, and then leave it at the same or another bicycle station.The first half-hour on the bike is free, but if you don't return it after 30 minutes, you have to pay.But it's only 1 a day or 29 a year! The bicycles are heavy (25 kg), and they are all grey and have baskets.There are about 20,000 of them in the city, and around 1,450 bicycle stations.So there are a lot more Velib stations than the 298 subway stations. Paris is not the first city to have a plan like this.But not everybody thinks it's a great idea.One Parisian said, “These bicycles are only for short journeys.If people want to travel across the city, they won't use a bicycle — they'll still use their cars.” A city spokesman said, “The bicycle plan won't solve all our traffic problems, of course.But it might help reduce air pollution.Traffic, together with factory fumes, is a big problem.There aren't any simple answers to traffic problems and pollution in cities.But unless we do something now, there will be more traffic jams and temperatures will continue to rise, so the problems in our environment will get worse.The bikes might help people to lead a healthier life, too.” 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一种新的自行车骑行方案，鼓励人们为了环境和自己的身体健康，多骑自行车。 1．What can we learn about the Velib plan? A．Its bikes have no baskets. B．Its bikes are light and colorful. C．It aims to make traveling easier. D．It owns more stations than the subway. 解析：选D　细节理解题。根据第二段中“The bicycles are heavy (25 kg)，and they are all grey and have baskets.”可知，A、B项错误；根据第一段可知，自行车计划的目的是改善交通拥堵和废气污染的问题，故C项和原文不符；根据第二段中“So there are a lot more Velib stations than the 298 subway stations.”可知，自行车车站要比地铁站多得多 。 2．If you use a Velib for 1 hour, how much should you pay? A. 1.　　　　　　　 B. 30. C. 29. D．No money. 解析：选A　细节理解题。根据第二段中“The first half-hour on the bike is free ... 1 a day or 29 a year！”可知，前半个小时是免费的，超过半小时需要付费，一天1欧元。因此骑自行车一个小时，需要付费1欧元。 3.Why do some people disagree with the Velib plan? A．The cost is rather high. B．It's hard to find a Velib station. C．It's not suitable for a long journey. D．The distance between two Velib stations is long. 解析：选C　推理判断题。根据第三段中“These bicycles are only for short journeys.”可知，这些自行车仅仅适用于短途旅行。由此可推断出，一些人反对自行车计划的原因是自行车不适用长途旅行。 4．What's the city spokesman's attitude towards the bicycle plan? A．Doubtful. B．Positive. C．Uncaring. D．Worried. 解析：选B　推理判断题。根据最后一段中城市发言人说的话“The bikes might help people to lead a healthier life, too.”可知，他认为自行车也可能帮助人们过一种更健康的生活。由此可以推断出，他对自行车计划的态度是积极的。 Ⅱ.完形填空 Donna Urquhart is an experienced runner.
