模块综合测评(二).阅读理解(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)A【导学号：20670045】Jenny Lind was born in Stockholm Sweden, in 1820, the daughter of a teacher of languages. She is said to have been able to repeat a song that she had heard only once at the age of three. At ten years of age she sang childrens parts on the Stockholm stage. After turning 12 years of age, her upper notes (高音) lost their sweetness, and for four years she did not do much singing. Her love for music continued and these years were spent on the study of instrumental music and composition.At the end of this period her voice got its power and purity (纯净) again and for a year and a half she was the star of the Stockholm Opera. Next, she gave a series of concerts and went to Paris for further study, but the French teacher did not appreciate her powers and Jenny returned to her native city.When she was twentythree years old, Jenny went to Dresden and when Queen Victoria visited that city the following year, she sang at the festivals held in the Queens honor. This opened the way to astonishing success in other German cities. In 1847 she went to London and was warmly received. There she sang for the first time in concert.Jenny Lind traveled to Paris to study with Manuel Garcia, a famous Spanish vocal (声乐) coach, who finally agreed to train her. Her husband, Otto Goldschmidt, was a famous German pianist who trained with Mendelssohn; they married in Boston while on tour in the US.After her marriage, she appeared on the stage from time to time, usually at concerts given for charities. She was deeply interested in charities and we can easily add to her title (头衔) of singer that of philanthropist. Her later years were spent in London where she died in 1887. Her life and songs are a sweet memory.【语篇解读】珍妮林德三岁的时候就表现出非凡的音乐天赋，10岁时就登上了斯德哥尔摩的舞台。即使在她青春期变声期间，她仍然坚持着对音乐的喜爱和追求，最终在音乐方面取得了令人惊叹的成就。不仅如此，她还乐于慈善事业，是有名的慈善家。1Jenny Lind didnt sing much for four years because Ashe didnt like popular musicBshe liked instrumental music and compositionCher voice was not at its bestDshe was busy with her studies【解析】细节理解题。根据第一段中的“After turning 12 years of age, her upper notes lost their sweetness, and for four years she did not do much singing”可知，12岁时她的高音失去了甜美，由此可以推断出她之所以四年没有演唱是因为她的嗓音不在最佳状态。【答案】C2In order to learn more about music Jenny Lind went to AParisBDresdenCBostonDLondon【解析】细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Next, she gave a series of concerts and went to Paris for further study”可知，她为了学习更多的音乐知识去了巴黎。【答案】A3According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE of Jenny Lind?AShe became famous in Stockholm when she was 10.BQueen Victoria didnt like her performance at all.CShe got married with Mendelssohn in Britain.DPeople are still impressed with her songs.【解析】细节理解题。根据全文的内容，结合文章最后一段中的“Her life and songs are a sweet memory”可知，她的歌曲现在人们仍然记忆犹新。【答案】D4The underlined word “philanthropist” in the last paragraph refers to a person who Agives money and help to people in needBmakes a large amount of money as a singerCbecomes happy by performing charitiesDspends much time in singing【解析】词义猜测题。根据该词前面的“She was deeply interested in charities”可知，珍妮林德不仅是歌唱家还是“慈善家”。【答案】ABToday almost everyone knows computers and the Internet. If I ask you “What is the most important in your life？” maybe you will say “Computers and the Internet.” The first computer was made in 1946. It was very big but it worked slowly. Today computers are getting smaller and smaller. But they work faster and faster. What can computers do? A writer has said, “People cant live without computers today.”The Internet came a little later than computers. It is about twentyfive years later than computers. But now it can be found almost everywhere. We can use it to read books, write letters, do shopping, play games or make friends.Many students like the Internet very much. They often go into the Internet as soon as they are free. They make friends on the Internet and maybe they have never seen these friends. They dont know their real names, ages and even sex(性别). They are so interested in making the “unreal friends” that they cant put their hearts into study. Many of them cant catch up with others on many subjects because of that.We can use computers and the Internet to learn more about the world. But at the same time，we should remember that not all the things can be done by computers and the Internet.5The Internet can not be used for AstudyingBshoppingCthinkingDplaying【解析】细节推断题。根据第二段的最后一句“We can use it to read books，write letters, do shopping, play games or make friends.”没有thinking，故选C项。【答案】C6When the computer was invented，it was Alarge and worked quicklyBsmall and worked slowlyClarge but worked slowlyDsmall but worked quickly【解析】信息捕捉题。根据第一段中的“It was very big but it worked slowly.”可知答案为C项。【答案】C7The Internet was born in about A1960B1970C1980D1985【解析】细节推断题。根据文中两点信息：“The first computer was made in 1946.”和“It is about twentyfive years later than computers.”可推算1946251971，故选B项。【答案】B8Which of the following is TRUE?AFew students like going into the Internet.BStudents use the Internet to make “real friends”CThese “unreal friends” often meet each other.DStudents dont know the friends on the Internet very well.【解析】细节推断题。文中明确说出几乎每个学生都爱上网，交的是“unreal friends”，彼此并不了解，故D项正确。【答案】DCFriendships can be difficultbecause often people arent as honest and open as they should be. Sometimes，people end up getting hurt.Most problems with friendships come up because people are just too selfish to care about the things that their friends need. They care about their own needs much more, which makes it hard for friendships to work. However, being selfish is part of human nature. A person is put together in order to take care of himself and his own needs, not necessarily those needs of other people. Even though being selfish is something that all humans are born with, it is something that everyone should guard against.The best thing to remember when you are a friend to anyone is that you need to treat your friend the same way as youd like to be treated. This is wonderful advice for a friendship, because it is really the only way to make sure that you are giving your friend everything you would want to be given in a friendship. Whenever you have a question about how you should treat a friend, it is easy to find an answer simply by asking yourself what you would like your friend to do for you，if he or she is in your shoes.Even if youre always thinking about how youd like to be treated, and your friends are too, there are issues that come up from time to time in each friendship, and it is important to understand how to deal with these issues so that you can build stronger and healthier friendships. Issues like friends getting boyfriends or girlfriends and not spending enough time with their friends，or even friends finding new friends and leaving old friends behind are issues that will probably come up with one or more of your friendships. It is important to know how to deal with these issues so that you can keep your friends and make new ones. No one wants to have a broken friendship.【语篇解读】友谊是珍贵的，但友谊也并不是总能始终如一，朋友之间也会有问题出现。如何才能使友谊长存，如何处理朋友之间的问题？首先我们应该问自己需要怎样的友谊，需要朋友如何对待自己，然后我们就会知道该如何对待自己的朋友，该如何增进友谊。9This passage mainly deals with Athe importance of friendshipsBthe advantages of friendshipsCthe problems with friendshipsDthe meaning of friendships【解析】主旨大意题。全文主要是围绕朋友之间出现的问题进行谈论的，所以选C项。【答案】C10According to the author, problems with friendships may appear when Aone is honestBone is selfishCone is aloneDone is too busy【解析】细节理解题。根据第二段第一句可知，朋友之间出现的大多数问题都是由于人们太自私。【答案】B11According to the passage, the first and most important thing to be other peoples friend is Ato treat your friends as fairly as possibleBto give your friends whatever you haveCnot to hurt your friends feelingsDnot to think of your own needs any more【解析】细节理解题。根据第三段第一句可知，作者认为要成为别人的朋友，最重要的一件事就是“己所欲，施于人”。【答案】A12Whats the purpose of understanding how to deal with friendship issues?ATo lead a comfortable life.BTo build stronger and healthier friendships.CTo be treated the way you want.DTo get a boyfriend or girlfriend more quickly.【解析】细节理解题。根据最后一段第一句可知，了解朋友之间的问题的目的就是建立更牢固、更健康的友谊。【答案】BDThis is an open letter to the three people who stole my handbag from the department store I am employed as a shop assistant.When you took my bag，I dont know what you thought you were going to get.With my wages，theres not much left on a Tuesday.I hope the 5 was useful to you.I have informed the social security office so you wont be able to cash the child benefit next week.I hope that wont leave you too short.But if you really need a couple of pounds，I suppose you could always cash one of the two checks left in my check book.Of course，I phoned the bank right away and the checkcasing card is no longer valid，so it wont be much use to you.Actually I dont mind about the money too much.We single parents who work to support our families understand only too well what it means to be short of cash.However，I dont suppose it went very far among the three of you.Sorry about that!I wish you had left the bag behind and just taken the wallet and check book.There were all kinds of papers in it，and notes and things that I really need.I really think that was very inconsiderate of you.I mean，how would you like something like that to happen to you?Well，perhaps the bag will turn up.It wasnt even an expensive one，just a plain，old brown leather shoulder bag.You probably dumped it in the nearest rubbish bin or threw it into the bushes.Weve looked around，of course，but no one saw which way you went after you left the shop.Im not really angry with you.I know how the pressures of modern living can affect us，but I am sad at the loss of my personal things.I feel violated and helpless.The police were very icy，and they just shrugged(耸)their shoulders.“It happens all the time，”they told me.Some small comfort，I suppose.But Ive lost just a little more faith in human nature.And as my young son said when I told him what had happened，“Why？Mummy，why us？”I couldnt answer that question.I wonder if you can.【语篇解读】这是一位手提包被盗的单身母亲写给小偷的公开信，既表达了对这种偷盗行为的不理解，又委婉地进行了谴责。13In Paragraph 2，the writer wants to Adescribe the contents of the bag in detailBgive some suggestions to the three thievesCtell the thieves hardly any money was availableDstate the fact that she was careless with the money【解析】主旨大意题。第二段失主叙述了自己手提包里的钱财，不难看出小偷仅可得到5英镑，由此可知答案为C。【答案】C14Which of the following is the most valuable to the writer?AThe cash in her bag.BThe papers and notes in the bag.CThe handbag itself.DThe check books in the bag.【解析】事实细节题。由第四段第二句可知，包里有不同种类的文件、笔记以及一些其他的东西，这些是失主真正需要的东西。【答案】B15What can we conclude about the police?AThey have doubts about human nature.BThey show sympathy for the woman.CThey think the case quite common.DThey are unable to find the thieves.【解析】推理判断题。由最后一段第五句可知，警察认为这种事情一直都在发生，故推出答案为C。【答案】C.阅读填句(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)Some Ways to Cheer UpFeeling a little blue?
