Unit 1 A new start B卷·高考水平达标卷 超 (时间：120分钟满分：150分) 第一部分听力(30分)（略） 第二部分阅读理解（共两节） 餐 第-节（共15个小题；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和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 A I never knew anyone who'd grown up in Jackson without being afraid of Mrs. : Calloway,or librarian.She ran Jackson's Carnegie Library absolutely by herself.SILENCE in big black letters was on signs hung everywhere.If she thought you were dressed improperly,she sent you straight back home to change your clothes.I was willing;I would 中咖 do anything to read. My mother was not afraid of Mrs.Calloway.She wished me to have my own library 與 card to check out books for myself.She took me in to introduce me."Eudora is nine years old and has my permission to read any book she wants from the shelves,children or adults,”Mother said. 空 Mrs.Calloway made her own rules about books.You could not take back a book to the library on the same day you'd taken it out;it made no difference to her that you'd read every word in it and needed another to start.You could take out two books at a time and 恝 two only.So two by two,I read library books as fast as I could go,rushing them home in the basket of my bicycle.From the minute I reached our house,I started to read.I knew this was extreme happiness,knew it at the time. My mother shared this feeling of mine.Now,I think of her as reading so much of the time while doing something else.I remember her reading a magazine while taking the part 荪 of the Wolf in a game of"Little Red Riding Hood"with my brother's two daughters.She'd just look up at the right time,long enough to answer-in character-"The beeter to eat you with,my dear,"and go back to her place in the magazine article. 21.Which of the following best describes Mrs.Calloway? A.Quiet. B.Strict. C.Humorous. D.Considerate. e 22.What do the underlined words"this feeling"refer to in the last paragraph? ☒ A.Desire to read. B.Love for Mrs.Calloway. C.Interest in games. D.Fear of the library rules. 呐 23.Where is the text probably from? A.A guidebook. B.An autobiography. C.A news report. D.A book review. 9 B We are the products of evolution,and not just evolution that occurred billions of years ago.As scientists look deeper into our genes ()they are finding examples of human evolution in just the past few thousand years.People in Ethiopian highlands have adapted to living at high altitudes.Cattle-raising people in East Africa and northern Europe have gained a mutation (that helps them digest milk as adults. On Thursday in an article published in Cell,a team of researchers reported a new kind of adaptation-not to air or to food,but to the ocean.A group of sea-dwelling people in Southeast Asia have evolved into better divers.The Bajau,as these people are known, number in the hundreds of thousands in Indonesia,Malaysia and the Philippines.They have traditionally lived on houseboats;in recent times,they've also built houses on stilts ( in coastal waters."They are simply a stranger to the land,"said Rodney C.Jubilado,a University of Hawaii researcher who studies the Bajau. Dr.Jubilado first met the Bajau while growing up on Samal Island in the Philippines. They made a living as divers,spearfishing or harvesting shellfish."We were so amazed that they could stay underwater much longer than us local islanders,"Dr.Jubilado said."I could see them actually walking under the sea." In 2015,Melissa Ilardo,then a graduate student in genetics at the University of Copenhagen,heard about the Bajau.She wondered if centuries of diving could have led to the evolution of physical characteristics that made the task easier for them."It seemed like the perfect chance for natural selection to act on a population,"said Dr.Ilardo.She also said there were likely a number of other genes that help the Bajau dive. 24.What does the author want to tell us by the examples in paragraph 1? A.Environmental adaptation of cattle raisers. B.New knowledge of human evolution. C.Recent findings of human origin. D.Significance of food selection. 25.Where do the Bajau build their houses? A.In valleys. B.Near rivers. C.On the beach.D.Off the coast. 26.Why was the young Jubilado astonished at the Bajau? A.They could walk on stilts all day. B.They had a superb way of fishing. C.They could stay long underwater. D.They lived on both land and water. 27.What can be a suitable title for the text? A.Bodies Remodeled for a Life at Sea B.Highlanders'Survival Skills C.Basic Methods of Genetic Research D.The World's Best Divers C In the mid-1990s,Tom Bissell taught English as a volunteer in Uzbekistan.He left after seven months,physically broken and having lost his mind.A few years later,still attracted to the country,he returned to Uzbekistan to write an article about the disappearance of the Aral Sea. 10 His visit,however,ended up involving a lot more than that.Hence this book,Chasing the Sea:Lost Among the Ghosts of Empire in Central Asia,which talks about a road trip from Tashkent to Karakalpakstan,where millions of lives have been destroyed by the slow drying up of the sea.It is the story of an American travelling to a strange land,and of the people he meets on his way:Rustam,his translator,a lovely 24-year-old who picked up his colorful English in California,Oleg and Natasha,his hosts in Tashkent,and a string of foreign aid workers. This is a quick look at life in Uzbekistan,made of friendliness and warmth,but also its darker side of society.In Samarkand,Mr Bissell admires the architectural wonders,while on his way to Bukhara he gets a taste of police methods when suspected of drug dealing.In Ferghana,he attends a mountain funeral (followed by a strange drinking party.And in Karakalpakstan,he is saddened by the dust storms,diseases and fishing boats stuck miles from the sea. Mr Bissell skillfully organizes historical insights and cultural references,making his tale a well-rounded picture of Uzbekistan,seen from Western eyes.His judgment and references are decidedly American,as well as his delicate stomach.As the author explains, this is neither a travel nor a history book,or even a piece of reportage.Whatever it is,the result is a fine and vivid description of the purest of Central Asian traditions. 28.What made Mr Bissell return to Uzbekistan? A.His friends'invitation. B.His interest in the country. C.His love for teaching. D.His desire to regain health. 29.What does the underlined word "that"in paragraph 2 refer to? A.Developing a serious mental disease. B.Taking a guided tour in Central Asia. C.Working as a volunteer in Uzbekistan. D.Writing an article about the Aral Sea. 30.Which of the following best describes Mr Bissell's road trip in Uzbekistan? A.Romantic. B.Eventful. C.Pleasant. D.Dangerous. 31.What is the purpose of this text? A.To introduce a book. B.To explain a cultural phenomenon. C.To remember a writer. D.To recommend a travel destination. D Before the 1830s,most newspapers were sold through annual subscriptions in America, usually $8 to 10 a year.Today $8 or 10 seems a small amount of money,but at that time these amounts were forbidding to most citizens.Accordingly,newspapers were read almost only by rich people in politics or the trades.In addition,most newspapers had little in them that would appeal to a mass audience.They were dull and visually forbidding.But the revolution that was taking place in the 1830s would change all that. -11 The trend,then,was toward the "penny paper"-a term referring to papers made widely available to the public.It meant any inexpensive newspaper;perhaps more importantly it meant newspapers that could be bought in single copies on the street. This development did not take place overnight.It had been possible(but not easy)to buy single copies of newspapers before 1830,but this usually meant the reader had to go down to the printer's office to purchase a copy.Street sales were almost unknown. However,within a few years,street sales of newspapers would be commonplace in eastern cities.At first the price of single copies was seldom a penny-usually two or three cents was charged-and some of the older well-known papers charged five or six cents.But the phrase "penny paper"caught the public's fancy,and soon there would be papers that did indeed sell for only a penny. This new trend of newspapers for "the man on the street"did not begin well.Some of the early ventures()were immediate failures.Publishers already in business,people who were owners of successful papers,had little desire to change the tradition.It took a few youthful and daring businessmen to get the ball rolling. 32.Which of the following best describes newspapers in America before the 1830s? A.Academic. B.Unattractive.C.Inexpensive. D.Confidential. 33.What did street sales mean to newspapers? A.They would be priced higher. B.They would disappear from cities. C.They could have more readers. D.They could regain public trust. 34.Who were the newspapers of the new trend targeted at? A.Local politicians. B.Common people. C.Young publishers. D.Rich businessmen. 35.What can we say about the birth of the penny paper? A.It was a difficult process. B.It was a temporary success. C.It was a robbery of the poor. D.It was a disaster for printers. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余 选项。 Our lives are full of habits.Unfortunately a great many of them are bad habits.One way to break these bad habits is to fill our lives with good habits.Most people decide one day that they need to make changes to their lives and then they go all out to make big sweeping changes.This may work for them for the first few days,but then they get burned out. 36 This is a very unproductive way to spend your time and energy. 37 Say your goal is to get up an hour earlier every day.One day you start setting your alarm for an hour earlier and you keep this up for one week.Then because you are naturally resistant to change,you go back to your old habit.A better way is to set your alarm one minute earlier every day.After two months you are getting up an hour earlier and you will not even notice the change. 38 12 This approach can work for just about anything.If you are exercising for half an hour every day and you want to increase that time to one hour then add a minute every day.After one month you will have reached your goal with very little resistance from your body and mind. 39 This method of change is gentle,but very powerful.Think of everything you can accomplish if you just continuously improve a little at a time.The change itself creates the momentum(动力)you need to keep going. 40 What one minute change can you make to your life today? A.The key is to change a little bit at a time. B.Keeping on exercising can build up strength. C.It may take longer,but with this approach you are likely to succeed. D.Nothing will happen if you are not determined to achieve your goal. E.Pretty soon they are back to their old habits and nothing has changed. F.Changing slowly removes the greatest barrier we have to change:fear. G.Soon you will find yourself reaching your goals with almost no pain involved. 第三部分语言运用（共两节） 第一节完形填空（共15个小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳 选项。 Dear Mrs.Koch, I never thanked you for all you did for me.When you as my 41 I was in a bad place.You didn't know why I was 42 your class,and you are confused about why an A student began to fail in every test.You were also 43 that I wouldn't do my homework.

The first day he walked into Mr.Rowe's classroom,he ignored the other students, looking angry and annoyed,and slid into his chair,knocking a couple of textbooks onto the floor.Mr.Rowe walked over to him and touched Steven's shoulder,but Steven pulled away.Nevertheless,Mr.Rowe welcomed him,"Hi,Steven.I'm happy you are in my class.We are gonna have a great year".Steven looked around the room as if Mr.Rowe must be mistaken.No teacher in his right mind would want Steven to be part of his classroom.So,while Mr.Rowe seemed cheerful and relaxed that day of school,it seemed that Steven was angry and confused 15 That day after class,Mr.Rowe chose Steven to pitch the kickball at recess."Hey, Steven,"Mr.Rowe commented,"You are good at pitching things.Let me show you my secret trick."Mr.Rowe taught Steven one of the tricks that not a single kid could perform.

He walked towards the workshop with heart in his mouth. Paragraph 2: Reaching the workshop,Asiri found the sequins were still there.They lay scattered across the floor,waiting for him.Asiri gathered the sequins into a pile and swept them into a dust pan.Care- fully,he shook it,separating the dust from the sequins.Only when the last sequin slipped into the box did Asiri glance up.Uncle Thad stood in the doorway with his arms crossed.Crossing the room, he squeezed Asiri's shoulder."Good workers always clean up after themselves."He clapped his hands.
