Unit 2 Robots .閱讀理解A(2018·全國(guó))Adults understand what it feels like to be flooded with objects.Why do we often assume that more is more when it comes to kids and their belongings?The good news is that I can help my own kids learn earlier than I did how to live more with less. I found the pre-holidays a good time to encourage young children to donate less-used things,and it worked.Because of our efforts,our daughter Georgia did decide to donate a large bag of toys to a little girl whose mother was unable to pay for her holiday due to illness.She chose to sell a few larger objects that were less often used when we promised to put the money into her school fund(基金)(our kindergarten daughter is serious about becoming a doctor).For weeks,Ive been thinking of bigger,deeper questions:How do we make it a habit for them?And how do we train ourselves to help them live with,need,and use less?Yesterday,I sat with my son,Shepherd,determined to test my own theory on this.I decided to play with him with only one toy for as long as it would keep his interest.I expected that one toy would keep his attention for about five minutes,ten minutes,max.I chose a red rubber ballsimple,universally available.We passed it,he tried to put it in his mouth,he tried bouncing it,rolling it,sitting on it,throwing it.It was totally,completely enough for him.Before I knew it an hour had passed and it was time to move on to lunch.We both became absorbed in the simplicity of playing together.He had my full attention and I had his.My little experiment to find joy in a single object worked for both of us.【語(yǔ)篇導(dǎo)讀】本文是議論文。生活其實(shí)不需要過(guò)多的外在物質(zhì),只要你專(zhuān)注其中,同樣可以讓你過(guò)得充實(shí)、精彩。1.What do the words“more is more” in paragraph 1 probably mean?A.The more,the better.B.Enough is enough.C.More money,more worries.D.Earn more and spend more.答案A解析詞義猜測(cè)題。由第一段首句“Adults understand what it feels like to be flooded with objects.”及該段最后“l(fā)ive more with less”可知,成年人明白越多越好是什么感受,而作者認(rèn)為擁有的物品很少也能活得很開(kāi)心,所以答案為A項(xiàng)“越多越好”。B項(xiàng)“適可而止”;C項(xiàng)“錢(qián)越多,憂(yōu)慮越多”;D項(xiàng)“賺得多,花得多”。2.What made Georgia agree to sell some of her objects?A.Saving up for her holiday.B.Raising money for a poor girl.C.Adding the money to her fund.D.Giving the money to a sick mother.答案C解析細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第二段最后一句“She chose to sell a few larger objects.when we promised to put the money into her school fund(基金)(our kindergarten daughter is serious about becoming a doctor).”可知,女兒之所以同意賣(mài)掉自己不經(jīng)常用的東西,是因?yàn)椤拔覀儭背兄Z會(huì)把這些錢(qián)存入她的學(xué)?；鹬?女兒將來(lái)當(dāng)醫(yī)生要用,所以答案為C項(xiàng)。3.Why did the author play the ball with Shepherd?A.To try out an idea.B.To show a parents love.C.To train his attention.D.To help him start a hobby.答案A解析細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第三段第三句“Yesterday, I sat with my son, Shepherd, determined to test my own theory on this.”可知,作者和兒子玩球的目的在于檢驗(yàn)自己“l(fā)ive more with less”想法的正確性,所以答案為A項(xiàng)。4.What can be a suitable title for the text?A.Take It or Leave ItB.A Lesson from KidsC.Live More with LessD.The Pleasure of Giving答案C解析主旨大意題。作者在文中倡導(dǎo)的觀念是“l(fā)ive more with less”,并通過(guò)親身體驗(yàn)去驗(yàn)證該觀念是否正確可行,由此可知C項(xiàng)正確。B(2018·浙江杭州二模)A laptop,a hair straightener,Christmas lights,an e-reader,a kettle,two bags,a pair of jeans,a remote-control helicopter,a spoon,and a dining-room chair.All broken.It sounds like a pile of things that youd stick in boxes and take to the dustbins.In fact,its a list of things mended in a single afternoon by British volunteers determined to get people to stop throwing things away.This is the Reading Repair Cafe,part of an international network aimed at dealing with a world of rubbish.The helicopter belongs to William who cheerfully describes himself as “mechanically incompetent”.He has owned it for 8 years,but 3 years ago it stopped working and it has been sitting unused in his cupboard ever since.He sits down at the table of Colin Haycock,an IT professional who volunteers at the repair cafe,which has been running for about four years and is a place where people can bring all manner of household items to be fixed for free.In less than five minutes,Haycock has fixed the helicopter and it works well.William looks ashamed;Haycock looks pleased.“I wish they were all that simple,” he says.Today,the repairers will stop 24 kg of waste from going to landfill (垃圾填埋場(chǎng)) and save 284 kg of CO2.Some items cant be fixed on the spot but very little needs to be thrown away.Gabrille Stanley,who used to run a clothing business,says she was drawn to volunteering at the repair cafe to fight the “throw-away culture”.About 300,000 tons of clothing was sent to landfill in the UK in 2016 and a report from WRAP puts the average lifespan (壽命) for a piece of clothing in the UK at 3.3 years.【語(yǔ)篇導(dǎo)讀】本文是一篇說(shuō)明文。文章主要介紹了“公益生活產(chǎn)品維修站(repair cafe)”的一次維修活動(dòng)。他們對(duì)損壞的生活產(chǎn)品進(jìn)行免費(fèi)維修,延長(zhǎng)產(chǎn)品的使用壽命,減少垃圾的產(chǎn)生,從而達(dá)到保護(hù)地球環(huán)境的目的。5.What is the authors purpose in writing Paragraph 1?A.To present the main idea.B.To support the authors opinion.C.To raise readers interest.D.To establish an argument.答案C解析推理判斷題。文章第一段僅僅列舉了一些已經(jīng)損壞的生活用品,但并沒(méi)有更多的信息,所以其目的是為了給讀者留下懸念,激發(fā)讀者的閱讀興趣。故選C項(xiàng)。6.Why doesnt William repair the helicopter himself?A.He is both lazy and busy.B.He is ashamed of repair work.C.He doesnt treasure the helicopter.D.He lacks the necessary skills.答案D解析細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第三段第一句“The helicopter belongs to William who cheerfully describes himself as mechanically incompetent.”可知,William對(duì)機(jī)器維修方面一竅不通。故選D項(xiàng)。7.Which of the following arguments will Gabrille Stanley probably agree with?A.People should send old clothing to landfill.B.People should hold on to their clothes longer.C.Clothing factories are to blame for the waste.D.Running a clothing business is no easy task.答案B解析推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章最后一段,尤其是“Gabrille Stanley.to fight the throw-away culture”可知,Gabrille Stanley反對(duì)“拋棄型文化”,認(rèn)為人們使用衣物的時(shí)間還可延長(zhǎng)。故選B項(xiàng)。.七選五Every year,thousands of students choose to study overseas.1.
