必修2Unit 5Music一、阅读理解Youre in your office when you learn theres someone with a gun wandering outside. You can hear gunshots and screams. What do you do?Thats the challenge for users of a new virtual (虚拟)reality program called SurviVR, designed to train employees how to deal with an active shooter situation in the workplace. The program works with HTC Vive, the virtual reality headset released earlier this year.An active shooter situation is when an armed person or people actively shoot in a small, populated area with the intention to kill. There were 20 such situations in the United States last year and 20 the year before, according to FBI statistics, resulting in a total of 231 deaths. This year saw the deadliest active shooter situation in US history, with 49 people killed in a nightclub in Orlando.In the training situation, users have four choices. They can lock themselves in the office. They can hide, perhaps in the office closet. They can run for an exit. Or they can use something in the officea puter or a cup a pair of scissors-as a weapon to fight the shooter. This is an improvement on standard active shooter training. Gallo says, which typically teachers people to lock themselves in place and hide. The lock down method is often ineffective, he says, and has resulted in many deaths in recent years.In the trainings basic level, no one gets killed. But as the trainings bee more advanced, players who make a wrong choice be shot. Theres no blood; the screen simply turns black slowly.If this sounds terrifying, thats the point, says Gallo. There are plenty of training programs to teach employees how to deal with workplace violence, sometimes involving role play with toy guns. But these trainings are basically games. Gallo says, with employees relaxed and even enjoying themselves. To teach people what they really need to know for an active shooter situation, they need to be scared.SurviVR will take the fear and turn it into confidence. Gallo says.1.

Were happy to sing your name from morning till evening, sometimes till dawn. _1_ I know you help me, sometimes youre making me do things with _2_ attention. Many times I promise myself that Ill _3_ my feelings towards you, but youre _4_ me closer and closer. Youve entered both my home and my _5_. Youre just a window for our _6_ and information. But we people arent _7_ only with the window. So we open all our _8_ for you. Is this a(n) _9_ or some kind of attachment? If this is an illness, is it curable?

Im a writer. But getting up early has bee really important for me. These are the techniques that I used to follow to learn to get up earlier： _1_ In my case it is 6 am so that I could do a couple of hours, write my blog and catch up my email before everyone else started work. Promise myself a reward. I always wanted to learn shooting so I promised myself I would book a days shooting if I got up early for a month. Get clothes, puter and breakfast ready the night before. _2_ Alarms. I set my bedside alarm for 6：00. I also set my telephone to ring at 6：05 but I put the phone on the other side of the room so that I have to get out of bed to stop it ringing. Naps(打盹) and earlier nights. Sleep is like money in the bank. If you overdraw by getting up early, you have to pay in some other time. _3_ Also, in the long run, going to bed an hour or so earlier meant that I was getting the right amount of sleep. Talk big widely about your new earlybirdiness. _4_ My friend Stuart says “We are the stories we tell about ourselves.” If I describe myself as a punctual, earlyrising, efficient robot maybe thats what Ill bee. To cut a long story short. It worked! I wake up at six, feel fresh and jump right out of bed without any alarms or bribery(贿赂) _5_ AThis technique works every time.BDecide what time I wanted to get up.CInitially, I did this by having short naps after lunch.DNone of these is rocket science, but they are worth sharing.EIt makes you feel good to tell people “Oh, I get up at 6 am.”FWhen I add blogs, it feels as if I have no free hours in the daytime.GI dont want to fall over everything when doing basic tasks when Im halfasleep.【文章大意】本文主要介绍了如何让自己养成早起的习惯。1答案与解析：B根据空后的“In my case it is 6 am”可知，对我而言，这个时间就是6点。所以这一段的主题是确定想要起床的时间。2答案与解析：G空前说到要将衣服、电脑和早餐这些东西提前准备好，故选G项。我不想在还没有完全清醒时笨手笨脚。G项中的basic tasks指代空前的“clothes, puter and breakfast”。3答案与解析：C本段告诉我们睡眠的总时间要有保证，空前讲到提前起床失去的睡眠时间需要用其他时间来弥补。故选C项。最初，我通过午饭后小睡来弥补。4答案与解析：E本段大意为到处宣传你起得很早对你能起到督促作用。故选E项。5答案与解析：D本空为尾段，起到总结全文的作用。故选D项，这些建议并不难做，但值得被分享。四、书面表达假设你是李华，暑假期间你们将组织由外国学生参加的中国城市多元文化之旅活动“Discovering China”，你刚到北京的美国朋友Tom 来信询问活动有关事宜。请你根据以下要点，给他写一封回信：1.活动目的：2.日程安排：（1）时间：一周；（2）路线：昆明井冈山上海苏杭；3.发出邀请。注意：1.词数120150；开头已经给出，不计入总词数。2.可适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。Dear Tom,From your letter I know its the first time for you to be in my country and you are eager to know what China is really like. 【参考范文】写作(满分30分)One possible version：Dear Tom，From your letter I know its the first time for you to be in my country and you are eager to know what China is really likeIm glad to tell you that an exploring trip titled Discovering China is to be organized in the summer vacation.
