Unit 4 What is life?单元综合检测 第一部分　阅读(共两节，满分50分) 第一节(共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Paris is the most wooded city in Europe, and around one quarter of its area is taken up by parks, gardens and other green spaces. Jardin des Plantes: over 28 hectares This impressive botanical garden is home to four museums, including the Natural History Museum, which houses a variety of African animals. The gardens themselves boast thousands of species of plants. This is a lovely place to relax and explore the beautiful surroundings. Parc des Buttes­Chaumont: over 24 hectares If you want to get off the tourist trail and hang out with true Parisians, this park is the perfect spot for a relaxing picnic or a leisurely wander. It is in the 19th district and is one of the largest parks in Paris. Cross its lake on the suspension bridge, or admire the waterfalls and attractive temples. Jardin du Luxembourg: over 25 hectares These beautiful gardens were first laid out in 1612 as the gardens of the Luxembourg Palace. They include a geometric forest, French and English style gardens, as well as a large pond. There is so much to see and do with activities especially for children, such as slides, rides and puppet shows, as well as leisure and sporting activities for adults. The gardens are home to more than one hundred sculptures. Le Parc de la Villette: 55 hectares This urban cultural park is so much more than just a park as it is home to numerous music venues, exhibition spaces and cafes. It is also home to no less than 12 gardens, which all follow different themes. The Passenger Gardens, for example, which are built on what was once the sheep market, support a variety of ecosystems, demonstrating the importance of biodiversity. (　　) 1. Which green space probably suits students who are interested in botany? A. Jardin des Plantes. B. Parc des Buttes­Chaumont. C. Jardin du Luxembourg.　 D. Le Parc de la Villette. (　　) 2. Which is special about Jardin du Luxembourg? A. They used to be royal gardens. B. They are Parisian favourite gardens. C. They feature American style gardens. D. They house a variety of African animals. (　　) 3. What can visitors do in Le Parc de la Villette? A. Visiting museums. B. Attending concerts. C. Admiring waterfalls. D. Watching puppet shows. B 19­year­old Zara Rutherford has made some records after completing a 32，000­mile flying around the world. Landing at Kortrijk­Wevelgem Airport in western Belgium on Thursday, she became the youngest woman, and first Belgian to fly alone around the world—as well as the first person ever to do it in an ultralight(轻型的) aircraft. It took her 155 days. The previous youngest­ever woman to accomplish the celebrated achievement of flight was American Shaesta Waiz, who also founded a non­profit called Dreams Soar, which Rutherford was supporting on her long journey. A funny twist of fate saw the two globe travelers united on a stopover. Rutherford made the 41­country crossing to inspire more women and girls into entering other STEM(Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) fields, but obviously and particularly flight. Remarking on how only 5.1% of pilots are women, she described the occupation last year as “a career where you basically get paid to travel around the world”. It wasn't all smooth flying for the 160­mph ultralight aircraft, and both extreme weather and visa difficulties took their toll on the plane and the pilot. Originally planned for three months and 52 countries, the route had to be changed due to unscheduled landings such as to avoid wildfires in California, and a denial for crossing permission over Japan. “I would say the hardest part was definitely flying over Siberia—it was extremely cold. It was minus 35 degrees Celsius on the ground，” Rutherford said when interviewed. “If the engine were to stop, I'd be hours away from rescue and I don't know how long I could have survived for.” Rutherford was piloting Shark Aero, one of the fastest ultralight aircraft in the world—built by specialists and improved for the standards of flying around the world. (　　) 4. How many records did Zara Rutherford set? A. Two.　 B. Three.　 C. Four.　 D. Five. (　　) 5. What do we know about Shaesta Waiz from the text? A. She has broken Zara Rutherford's record. B. She often flew together with Zara Rutherford. C. She has given Zara Rutherford a lot of support. D. She is as great a global traveler as Zara Rutherford. (　　) 6. Why did Rutherford start the 32，000­mile flying? A. To get paid to travel around the world. B. To show her support for Shaesta Waiz. C. To see more places of interest worldwide. D. To appeal to more females to take up flying. (　　) 7. What can we infer from what Rutherford said? A. Her journey was dangerous and tough.　B. She failed to fly over Siberia. C. She was a girl full of imagination.　 D. She was proud of her achievement. C The global population growing, the climate is warming, and, no surprise, the demand for energy is steadily increasing. We need to use less energy in any way that we can. German design student Tobias Tribenbacher, from the University of the Arts Berlin, has created a street light called Papilio in response to global sustainability initiatives, saying that he initially chose to create a city­facing street light due to such lights' role in light pollution. Papilio can be mounted to walls or set up as a freestanding lantern. The lamp should ideally be placed between three to six metres above ground, where ground­level winds are the strongest. The lamp is shaped like a pinwheel that acts as a wind turbine(涡轮机), catching the wind to produce its own energy. It also has a rechargeable battery that stores electricity, so the lamp can operate even on less windy days. Another key component of the lamp is the light itself. The warm­colored light doesn't draw the attention of insects, and it uses an infrared(红外线的) sensor so that the light is only started by nearby motion, reducing its contribution to light pollution. Aside from saving public space and beautifying streets, the street light's design is also a visual signal of clean energy in action.“Design not only determines how street lights are working. It can also shape our attitude towards them and consequently affect how we use them，” Tobias Tribenbacher says.“Because energy creation is often an invisible process, projects such as these help the production of electricity become comprehensible.” The lamp's ability to change wind power into electricity can also be a huge benefit to naturally windy areas. And since it doesn't require any electrical infrastructure(基础设施), there will be an opportunity to fix the street lights in remote settings or places where infrastructure innovations can be cost­prohibitive. Just as lanterns create the character of streets and squares, Papilio is envisioned as a public sustainability statement that motivates residents to take part in transforming our cities into climate­friendly, future­proof environments. (　　) 8. Why did Tribenbacher choose to create the street light? A. To tackle light pollution. B. To reduce biodiversity loss. C. To beautify the city he lives in. D. To draw public attention to waste. (　　) 9. Which of the following is the feature of the street light? A. It occupies a large space. B. It can be fixed anywhere. C. It is switched off by hand. D. It is unattractive to insects. (　　)10. What do Tribenbacher's words in Paragraph 5 imply? A. The climate crisis is tough to address. B. Design can facilitate our comprehension. C. We must take action to save clean energy. D. We know little about electricity generation. (　　)11. What is the purpose of the text? A. To stress the importance of innovation. B. To introduce a wind­powered street light. C. To advocate environmental sustainability. D. To analyze the sustainability of the street light. D As I put down the exercise equipment, my brain tries to focus on what my trainer has said. “Describe that to me，” asked Rob. He is looking for an answer that required me to connect my brain to my body. Yes, I know. My brain is connected to my body—the thing that has been carrying my head around for the last 56 years. Since completing my undergraduate degree I have been increasingly immobilized by my working life. Sitting still at a desk, staring at a screen, it's mostly through my fingers that I connect to my brain. “I felt great，” I reply. “I could feel it in my back.” Rob is quick to encourage and set up more weight. Then cheerfully he'll say, “Okay, next set.” Every accomplishment in my life has been centered in my head—grades, degrees, promotions, published papers and teaching. But on reflection, I wasn't paying much attention to my body. Weightlifting is different. Rob is a trainer and manager at my local gym, my guide in helping me with a single goal—get strong. Despite my age, size and beginner status, Rob has made me feel safe. He is always close by, watching and posing questions. Like “Where did you feel that？” or the more general request, “Describe that for me.” Early on I took these as rote(机械性流程) pleasantries(客套话). Over time I realized he wanted more than just routine answers. Having shown me how to do an exercise, Rob would encourage me to think about the muscle or chain of muscles as they moved. The questions were a test of that connection. Gradually, I started thinking my way back into my body. Not my body as a whole but as individual, connections to newly identified places. Intentionally. Specifically. Magically. It's surprisingly difficult. I am five months into a new way of living with this 56­year­old body. It talks to me in a totally different way now. It reminds me of my capabilities, my muscles calling me to move, demanding to be challenged. And I long to continue this dialogue so that I'm ready the next time Rob says, “Describe that to me.” (　　)12. What can we learn from the third paragraph? A. The author is allergic to exercise. B. The author has been living an active life. C. The author doesn't understand the trainer. D. The author's fingers may be flexible. (　　)13. Why did Rob ask the author to describe what she felt? A. To help her release pressure. B. To help her feel her muscles working. C. To keep her focused on work. D. To stop the embarrassing atmosphere. (　　)14. What does the last sentence imply? A. The author's gratitude to Rob. B. The author's solid determination. C. The author's recommendation to readers. D. The author's confusion about weightlifting. (　　)15. Which of the following may be a suitable title of the passage? A. A Brand­new Lifestyle　 　B. An Effective Way of Exercise C. Weightlifting: My Favourite Exercise　 　D. Keeping Muscles Connected 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。 The “WHO Quit Tobacco App” is the latest tobacco control initiative(倡议) by the WHO South­East Asia Region. __16__ Its aim is to help people quit tobacco use in all forms, including smokeless and other newer products.

You can get most food, such as warm cookies or vodka, to your doorstep in minutes. But try getting a red snapper(红鲷鱼). Until recently, if you could obtain it, it would likely have been pre­frozen and shipped in from overseas. A new tech startup is aiming to __21__ this situation. Based inside the Fulton Fish Market, a seafood wholesale market, the startup, called FultonFishMarket.com, allows customers across the whole country, both restaurants and individuals, to buy from the market. The fish is shipped __22__， rather than frozen, thanks to an Amazon advanced logistics system. Mike Spindler, the company's CEO, said recently, “I can get a fish to Warren Buffett, that's as fresh as if he'd walked down to the pier(码头) and bought it that morning.” There is one thing, __23__， that the sophisticated logistics system cannot do: pick out a fish.

The computer is a “learning system”， so if DiGregorio makes a choice it didn't __32__， it asks, “Was the fish not available? Was it damaged？” All that information is fed back in for next time. Then, what can a fishmonger see that a computer can't? DiGregorio showed me his part of the __33__ process. “I'm assessing a few things，” he said. First, __34__. Fish should have “nice” slime(黏液).

Use your tool right—this is what I always tell them. But I never expected to learn that lesson from them. I clearly remembered it was my 40th birthday. On that day, my sixth­grade students were seated in a large circle, each holding a different tool in their hand—a hammer, a flashlight, a screwdriver, etc. The students discussed how words are like tools—they have the ability to build or to destroy, and they discovered how the right tool used at the right time for the right job can bring about great results. They freely shared personal stories of how they had experienced someone's words used as a tool, to wound or to heal. I watched and listened with a sense of satisfaction—the students were engaged, attentive, and enjoying the lesson. They got it! It was one of those times when I sat back and enjoyed the magic of being a teacher—to have the opportunity to watch young people discover a greater truth about life, about each other, and about themselves. There was no better gift than that. As we neared the end of that school day, one of my students, Laura, had an unexpected outburst of defiance(违抗) in class. Busy scribbling(涂画) in her exercise book, she refused to work with her group. I was aware from reading Laura's file that she had struggled with defiant behavior in previous years, but we had developed a good relationship and she was always a respectful, thoughtful, and positive contributor to our class. Her behavior caught me off guard. “I'm disappointed in you！” With a sharp tone, I asked her to excuse herself and told her I would visit with her in our next­door meeting room after school. She refused to leave and sat silently, staring at me angrily from the back of the room. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式作答。 “This was not optional，” I firmly told her, sounding unpleasantly bitter.___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ But the meeting room rang with her response, “You're using your tool against me！”__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第一部分　阅读 第一节 1—5 AABBD　6—10 DAADB　11—15 BDBBD 第二节　16—20 FCEAD 第二部分　语言运用 第一节 21—25 BDCAB　26—30 CCBDB　31—35 ACDBA 第二节 36.to update　37. rising　38. was increased 39. the　40. the hottest　 41. communication 42. its　43. as　44. that/which　45. rapidly 第三部分　写作 第一节　One possible version: Dear__Mr__Brown， I'm Li Hua, one of your Chinese students. Thank you very much for recommending some English novels to me last semester. I think these novels are very interesting and meaningful. After reading these novels, I have a deep feeling about them. Especially after reading the novel Pride and Prejudice, I think a marriage can't only have love or material, but should be considered comprehensively. Only when both aspects are considered can we really get happiness. Reading can enrich knowledge and broaden vision. When we are frustrated or need help, reading will make us feel good. Thank you again for recommending these English novels to me. At the same time, I also hope to get your further guidance. Yours， Li__Hua 第二节　One possible version: “This__was__not__optional，”__I__firmly__told__her,__sounding__unpleasantly__bitter.__She marched from the back to the front and slammed the door as she left for the room next door. After the class was dismissed, I hurried to the meeting room. In an uncharacteristic gesture of frustration, I slammed the meeting room door behind me. “Do you know how disturbing your defiance was to the whole class？” I reprimanded as I stood over her. With a bit of complacency, I paused for her to respond. But__the__meeting__room__rang__with__her__response,__“You're__using__your__tool__against__me！” It thundered in my ears. A girl was wounded by my tool of words. My mind raced for solutions. “Sorry, Laura. I haven't used my tool right.” I softly said, gently putting my hand on her shoulder to reassure her of my sincerity. Her defiance slowly melted away and she handed me what she busied herself with—a birthday card. This precious gift served as a constant reminder of learning to use my tool right. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
