2019-2020年高中英语 第四单元过关检测 新人教版必修5.阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共12小题;每小题2.5分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。(Reuters)The heaviest floods in decades shut down the Canadian oil capital of Calgary on Friday,with tens of thousands of residents forced to leave their homes.Police said that four people may have died in the town of High River,located about 60 km south of Calgary,including a woman who was swept away with her camper and a man who was seen falling from a canoe in the swollen Highwood River.Some 1,200 troops were helping with the evacuations.Around 100,000 people of Calgarys 1.1 million residents were ordered to leave their homes,while smaller munities were evacuated elsewhere in the Western Canadian province.By mid-afternoon,rivers had flooded roads and bridges,forcing many residents to flee by boat or helicopter.More than 100 millimeters (3.9 inches) of rain has fallen in some parts of southern Alberta in just two days,and forecasters say the rain wont let up until Saturday.Alberta lies to the east of the Rockies,and many parts of the province are normally very dry.But a stubborn area of high pressure in Alaska and northern Alberta has pulled a stream of moisture (湿气) up into southern Alberta from the United States,causing the heavy rainfall.Albertas oilfields lie to the north of the flooded areas,and energy output has not been affected.Provincial Municipal Affairs Minister Doug Griffiths said there was no threat to Albertas network of oil and natural gas pipelines.Some agricultural areas were also flooded,and while crops will likely recover,they will be weaker.Pictures showed trees and debris (残骸) being swept down the swollen Bow River,which flows through central Calgary and reached at around 1,500 cubic meters per second overnight,more than five times the normal flow rate for this time of year.In Calgary,mayor Nenshi urged people to stay at home.Schools were closed,as well as many offices in the downtown core,where lights were off and few people on the streets.1.What can we know according to the news from Reuters?A.Canada is suffering a great shortage of oil.B.Floods have caused much damage to Canada.C.Lots of residents were swept away by the flood.D.Such a heavy flood also happened ten years ago.提示:细节理解题。依据文章第一段可知,几十年来最大的洪水关闭了卡尔加里的石油供应,致使成千上万的居民被迫离开他们的家园。由此可知这场洪水令加拿大遭受损失,故选B项。答案:B2.Many residents had to flee by boat or helicopter.A.because they were ordered to leave their homesB.because the rain would continue for many daysC.because the land traffic roads were out of conditionD.because the roads and bridges were being repaired提示:细节理解题。依据文章第三段的最后一句可知,河流淹没了道路和桥梁,迫使许多居民乘船或直升机逃离。故选C项。答案:C3.According to the passage we can know that .A.Alberta is being affected by a stream of moistureB.Albertas oilfields energy output has got little influenceC.Albertas network of oil will have to be improvedD.all the agricultural areas have been flooded提示:细节理解题。依据文章倒数第三段的第一句可知,阿尔伯塔油田位于洪区的北部,它的能源输出没有受到影响。故选B项。答案:B4.What do the last two paragraphs imply?A.A lot of rubbish has polluted the Bow River.B.The frightening floods will be under control.C.The flooding situation is still serious.D.Many people refuse to leave their homes.提示:推理判断题。依据文章后两段可知,BowRiver的流速达到每秒的1500立方米,超过正常流量的五倍;在卡尔加里,市长敦促人们不要外出。由此可以看出,洪灾情况依然很严重。故选C项。答案:CBThe best reporters I know are bright,honest,personable,curious and courageous.If you ask them to explain their success,this is what they might say:A good reporter is generalized,able to deal with a number of topics and to talk with a variety of people.He knows how to handle various issues in many fields.He can think through all the possibilities and find the important parts in a large amount of information.A good reporter is curious.He takes pleasure in the new,and in the old,in the history or precedent(先例)that got us where we are.He enjoys reading and appreciates the details.A good reporter is pleasant.He adopts a friendly nature with those he meets.He is a grateful guest,with a belief in the basic goodness of people.He must be a good listener,even though he does not like them or what they stand for.He seeks the truth and acts independently.As a news provider,he has the power to influence decisions and plays a big role in forming public opinions.So,he must be responsible.He should take all the time that he needs to verify(证实) the data he has gathered.He must make sure that all of them are based on facts.A good reporter is courageous.He approaches strangers.He is willing to make a mistake and willing to write something that may hurt someone.As Jon Franklin said,“Back when I first started my work,I thought intelligence was the most important quality.I have since changed my mind.You do have to be intelligent,but the biggest thing is courage.”5.According to the passage,a good listener is someone who .A.always listens to the truthB.never interrupts a conversationC.listens to the most important parts of what people sayD.listens to people carefully although he doesnt like them提示:细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Hemustbeagoodlistener,eventhoughhedoesnotlikethemorwhattheystandfor.”可知,一个好的倾听者即使不喜欢对方或对方所说的话也会认真听。答案:D6.Which of the following sentences is the most suitable for the blank in the fifth paragraph?A.A good reporter is honest.B.A good reporter is confident.C.A good reporter is intelligent.D.A good reporter is humorous.提示:主旨大意题。第五段内容主要强调记者要诚实,不能弄虚作假,故选A项。答案:A7.According to the passage,a good reporter .A.has to avoid hurting those who are not friendlyB.has to learn whatever he doesnt understandC.has to write about what he thinks is rightD.has a great sense of responsibility提示:细节理解题。根据第五段中的“So,hemustberesponsible.”可知优秀的记者要有责任感。答案:D8.Jon Franklin would agree that .A.intelligence is required but is not the most important quality of a reporterB.courage is as important as intelligenceC.courage makes it easier for a reporter to succeedD.the more intelligent you are,the more you gain提示:推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Youdohavetobeintelligent,butthebiggestthingiscourage.”可以推断JonFranklin认为记者要有聪明才智,但聪明才智不是最重要的。答案:ACIf there is one thing Im sure about,it is that in a hundred years from now we will still be reading newspapers.It is not that newspapers are a necessity.Even now some people get most of their news from the television and the radio.Many buy a paper only on Saturday or Sunday.But for most people reading a newspaper has bee a habit passed down from generation to generation.The nature of what is news may change.What basically makes news is what affects our livesthe big political stories,the coverage of the wars,earthquakes and other disasters,will continue much the same.I think there will be more coverage of scientific research,though.Its already happening in areas that may directly affect our lives,like genetic(基因) engineering.In the future,I think there will be more coverage of scientific explanations of why we feel as we doas we develop a better understanding of how the brain operates and what our feelings really are.Its quite possible that in the next century newspapers will be transmitted(传送) electronically from Fleet Street and printed out in our own home.In fact,I am pretty sure that it will happen in the future.You will probably be able to choose from a menu,making up your own newspaper by picking out the things you want to readsports and international news,etc.I think people have got it wrong when they talk about petition between the different media(媒体).They actually feed off each other.Some people once foresaw that televisions would kill off newspapers,but that hasnt happened.What is read on the printed page lasts longer than pictures on a screen or sound lost in the air.And as for the Internet,it is never really pleasant to read something just on a screen.9.Whats the best title for the text?A.The Best Way to Get NewsB.The Changes of MediaC.Make Your Own NewspaperD.The Future of Newspapers提示:标题归纳题。从文章第一句:一百年后人们仍要读报,到后面文章讲到报纸跟人们生活的关系,报纸的形式和内容,可归纳出此题的答案为D项。答案:D10.In the writers opinion,in the future,.A.more big political affairs,wars and disasters will make newsB.newspapers will not be printed in publishing houses any longerC.newspapers will cover more scientific researchD.more and more people will watch TV提示:细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“Ithinktherewillbemorecoverageofscientificresearch,though.”可推知此题答案为C项。答案:C11.From the text,we can infer that .A.newspapers will win the petition among the different mediaB.newspapers will stay with us together with other mediaC.television will take the place of newspapersD.the writer believes some media will die out提示:细节理解题。根据文章第一段第三、四句“Evennowsomepeoplegetmostoftheirnewsfromthetelevisionandtheradio.ManybuyapaperonlyonSaturdayorSunday.”可推知此题答案为B项。答案:B12.The underlined phrase “feed off” in the last paragraph means .A.depend onBpete withC.fight withD.kill off提示:词义猜测题。作者上一句说人们错误地认为各种不同的媒体相互竞争,而下一句作者又说“Theyactuallyfeedoffeachother(注意句中的actually一词)”,再结合所给的四个选项,可知应选A项。答案:A第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10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。The Internet has opened up a whole new online world for us to meet,chat and go where weve never been before.But just as in face-to-face munication,there are some rules of behavior that should be followed when on line.13Imagine how youd feel if you were in the other persons shoes.For anything youre about to send:ask yourself,“Would I say this to the persons face?” If the answer is no,rewrite and reread.14If someone in the chat room is rude to you,your instinct (本能) is to fire back in the same manner.But try not to do so.15If it was caused by a disagreement with another member,try to fix the situation by politely discussing it.Remember to respect the beliefs and opinions of others in the chat room.16Offer advice when asked by newers,as they may not be sure what to do or how to municate.When someone makes a mistake,whether its a stupid question or an unnecessarily long answer,be kind about it.If its a small mistake,you may not need to say anything.Even if you feel strongly about it,think twice before saying anything.Having good manners yourself doesnt give you license to correct everyone else.17At the same time,if you find you are wrong,be sure to correct yourself and apologize to those that you have offended.It is not polite to ask others personal questions such as their age,sex and marital status.Unless you know the person very well,and you are both fortable with sharing personal information,dont ask such questions.A.Its natural that there are some people who speak rudely or make mistakes online.B.Repeat the process till you feel sure that youd feel fortable saying the words to the persons face.C.Everyone was new to the network once.D.The basic rule is simple:treat others in the same way you would want to be treated.E.When you send short messages to a person online,you must say something beautiful to hear.F.You should either ignore the person,or use your chat software to block his messages.G.If you do decide to tell someone about a mistake,point it out politely.答案:1317 DBFCG.英语知识运用(共两节,满分45分)第一节完形填空(共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。Anna Douglas was 72 years old when she started writing her newspaper column.She had

to the Hope Project,great changes have taken place in a poor country school.Before the school was financed,many of its pupils left school because their families were too poor to pay for their education.Some unsafe school houses had to be used as classrooms.And all the teachers shared one room.The playground was nothing but an open land.Things are different now.All the children who left school have access to continuing their studies.In the schoolyard stands a three-storey teaching building.There are rooms provided for music,art and puter teaching;the school is well equipped with sports goods.For this reason,it was named Pingan Hope School.It is hoped that in time all the students will benefit from the Hope Project.
