2019-2020年高考英语一轮复习Unit2Robots单元检测卷新人教版选修. 阅读理解Entering Space, astronauts can give us a fascinating account of a shuttle flight, describing the pressure of a countdown and launch, the plexities of living the days in the strange weightless environment, the challenges of working in space, the emotional effect of seeing earth from space, the drama of the meteoric landing.However, there are also plenty of things that astronauts cant do because of their weightless environment, and thats very sad. Whats more, they cant even let their sadness show, because its impossible to cry in zero gravity.Of course, astronauts can still produce tears. But crying is much more difficult in space, reported The Atlantic in January. Without gravity, tears dont flow downward out of the eyes like they do here on Earth. This means that when you cry in space, your tears have nowhere to gothey just stick to your eyes.In May xx, astronaut Andrew Feustel experienced this during one of his spacewalks. “Tears,” he said, “dont fall off of your eye They just kind of stay there.”Besides making your vision unclear, this can also cause physical pain. Back on Earth, tears are supposed to bring fort to the eyes. But thats not the case in space. The space environment dries out astronauts eyes, and when tears suddenly wet the eyes, it can cause pain rather than fort. “My right eye is painful like crazy,” Feustel told his teammate during the walk.Since gravity doesnt work in space, astronauts need some extra help to get rid of the tears. Feustel chose to rub his eyes against his helmet to wipe the tears away. Another choice is to just wait“When the tears get big enough they simply break free of the eye and float around,” astronaut Ron Parise told The Atlantic.There are lots of small thingsthings like cryingthat we are so used to on Earth. We usually take them for granted, until they bee a problem in a totally different environment, like space. There, astronauts cant talk to each other directly. They also cant eat or drink in normal ways. They cant even burp（打嗝）, because there is no gravity to hold the food down in their stomach. If they do burp, they just end up throwing up （呕吐） everything in their stomach, according to the UK National Space Center.Thus, perhaps its only space explorers who can honestly say,“Gravity, youre the best.”1.What can we conclude from the 2nd and 3rd paragraphs? A.Astronauts are unable to feel sad in space.B.Tears produced in space dont flow downward.C.Astronauts produce fewer tears in space.D.Tears produced in space flow down more slowly.2.What can the astronaut do to get rid of the tears?A.Get the tears big enough to break away from his eyes.B.Get the tears big enough to fall off his eyes.C.Rub his eyes against his helmet to let the tears float forward.D.Rub his eyes by hand to let the tears float around.3.What is the second-to-last paragraphs mainly about?A.Suggestions on how astronauts can stay fortably in space.B.Why burping is impossible in space.C.Things that humans cant do without gravity.D.Other basic things that are difficult to do in space.4.What can be the best title of this passage?A.In the Sky, You Cant Cry.B.In the Sky, You Cant Burp.C.No Gravity, No Tears.D.Better Life with Gravity.Are you a saver or a spender?5 This old saying calls attention to the wisdom of saving money. “Putting money away for a rainy day” is another way to talk about saving for the future.People who hate to spend money are known as “tightwads”, while those who like to get the most value for their money are called“thrifty”. 6 A spendthrift is someone who spends wastefully. People like that are often said to spend money “like a drunken sailor” or “like theres no tomorrow”.In the United States, people who want to start a savings account have different choices of where to put their money. 7 Credit unions are cooperatives for people who have some kind of connection. For example, the members might work for a university or a government agency. Most credit unions are non-profit organizations.Credit unions, banks and other financial institutions pay interest on savings accounts. But the interest rates are low. Certificates of deposit （存款） pay higher returns. With a certificate of deposit, a person agrees not to withdraw the money for a certain period of time. This term could be anywhere from a few months to several years. 8 People can withdraw their money early, but they have to pay a penalty（罚金）.In a number of countries, people have been saving less over the years. It is reported that in 2000, Americans had a household savings rate of 7%. 9 Many European countries have higher rates, but Americans save more than families in Japan.A.People are willing to save money for the future.B.A penny saved is a penny earned.C.Before gold, even kings take off their bats.D.These include banks and credit unions.E.Longer terms and larger amounts pay higher interest.F.A thrifty person is different from a spendthrift.G.This year the rate is expected to be a little more than 2%.完形填空 I was told just now in the hospital that I was having a Bells palsy attack, a condition in which the face muscles tighten because of stress.

You cannot imagine how a pleasant surprise it is to have heard from you! In your email you asked about how I spent my winter vacation. Well, my winter vacation lasted about half a month. During the first few days, I went across my lessons and finished the assignments my teachers has set me. But then came the Spring Festival which, you may already know, is one of the most important traditional festivals for us Chinese. During the festival, I had a great fun staying with my family, helping them with the routine housework as well as visit friends and relatives. Meanwhile, I, together with several of my classmates, carried out some voluntary works in our local home for the elderly. The winter vacation had fled by when I realized it. Now my new term has begun, and I am buried in my lessons as usual. Id appreciate you if you could tell me how you spent your winter vacation. And hope to hear from you pretty soon. All the best! Yours ever,Li Hua答案.阅读理解A语篇导读：太空是一种失重环境。进入太空的宇航员的生活和在地球上千差万别，像流泪和打嗝这样的小事都不行，流泪时泪水挂在眼珠上，不仅看不清还会使眼睛受损伤，而打嗝时会将腹中东西全都吐出来。1.B细节理解题。由第三段最后两句可知，在太空上眼泪不能流下来，故选B项。2.A细节理解题。由第六段可知，除去眼泪的方法有两种，其中一种就是等到泪水足够多、泪珠足够大时，眼泪就会溢出眼眶，四处飘动，故选A项。3.D推理判断题。第二至六段讲的是宇航员在太空不能做的一些事，即人类在失重时不能做的事，故选D项。4.A主旨大意题。文章主要介绍宇航员在太空有眼泪但无法流泪的事实，故选A项。B语篇导读：这是一篇关于理财的说明文，作者为我们普及了最基本的金融知识。5.B选项“A penny saved is a penny earned”，语自Franklin,第一段关键信息词“saving money, putting money away, saving for the future”等关键信息词为此作出了很好的诠释。6.F上下文都有关键信息词：thrifty, spendthrift,因此不难做出选择。7.D本段下文“credit unions are”是对D项credit union的注释。而选项中的bank又是上文说到“where to put their money”最常见的地方，因此，本题容易作出正确的选择。8.E本段主要讲到存款利息与存款时间的长短和所存金额大小有关，所以选项E(时间长、金额大的存款利息高)符合文意。9.G本段主要讲述存款率。本段有关键信息词“over the years”,选项中有“this year”,上下文和选项都有一个重要词汇rate和，因此选项G符合文意。.完形填空语篇导读：作者马上要参加一场面试，却患了面部神经麻痹，脸部肌肉不受控制。面对这样的困境，作者还是勇敢地参加了面试，并因为其勇气而被当场录用。1.A由于面部肌肉扭曲，照镜子时我都认不出自己了。recognize（辨认出，辨别出）符合语境。2.B面部肌肉变得僵硬，说话也受到影响，其他参加面试的人自然就比我有优势了。advantage（优势，有利条件）符合语境。3.C然而我不想让自己的难为情阻碍我(去参加面试)。4.D从语境看，作者说这是她多年来梦想的职位，因此她不是因为准备了很长时间而得到这个位置，而是经过多年刻苦工作，才终于有了这个机会。5.Cdrop sb.off表示“(用车)顺路送(某人到某地)，顺便把(某物/人)送至(某处)”，符合语境。6.A从语境可知，作者决定还是要去参加这次面试。7.C上文讲到此时的我照镜子都几乎认不出自己，妈妈心疼我，温柔地说：“可是你看起来那么奇怪。”解题时要注意句中的省略号。文章没有提到作者身体虚弱(weak)；也没有提到作者固执（stubborn）或生气（angry）。8.B 妈妈说的没错，这一点我心里明白。9.C假如我不去参加面试，我会总是想我是否本来可以得到这个我梦寐以求的工作呢？10.B结合上下文和所提供的选项可知，妈妈很不情愿地把我送到我要去的地方。11.C注意情景的跳跃与转换。“你好，你是Jenkins小姐吗？”显然这里是面试的考官在和我打招呼，因此选C项。12.A我刚从医院赶过来，医生说我患了面部神经麻痹，可能这种情况会持续几天才会恢复。结合语境判断选A项。13.B处于这样的状态，还能来参加面试，可见作者是真有毅力。14.C这句话是他对我抱病参加面试的评价。从四个动词选项看，本题应该选C项。ment评论，评价。15.D从下文考官的话可知他是在看我的申请表。16.A从下文作者的回答(是的)判断选A项，考官问道：你这份申请表上提供的信息都是准确的吧？normal正常的；incredible难以置信的；contradictory 相矛盾的，均不符合语境。17.C结合语境，此处句意：不过在申请表中我忘了说，我的打字速度是每分钟75个字。18.B既然背景给人的印象深刻，而且有相关的工作经历，那么作者“当然”符合条件了。19.D你什么时候可以来报到上班呢？这里用available表示“便利的”。convenient的主语不能是人。20.B显然，作者的勇气与毅力也就是她坚毅的性格给考官留下了深刻的印象。.短文改错Dear Tony,How are things going on with you?
