三、阅读理解(共10小题；每小题3分，满分30分)
A
F. Scott Fitzgerald，born on September 24,1896，an American novelist，was once a student of St. Paul Academy，the Newman School and attended Princeton. University for a short while. In 1917 he joined the army and was posted in Alabama，where he met his future wife Zelda Sayre. Then he had to make some money to impress her.
His life with her was full of great happiness，as he wrote in his diary，“My own happiness in the past often approached such joy that I could share it even with the person dearest to me but had to walk it away in quiet streets and take down parts of it in my diary.”
This Side of Paradise, his first novel，was published in 1920. Encouraged by its success，Fitzgerald began to devote more time to his writing. Then he continued with the novel the Beautiful and Damned(1922)，a collection of short stories Thales of the Jazz Age(1922)，and a play The Vegetable (1923). But his greatest success was The Great Gatsby，published in 1925，which quickly brought him praise from the literary world. Yet it failed to give him the needed financial security. Then，in 1926，he published another collection of short stories All the Sad Young Men.
However，Fitzgerald’s problems with his wife Zelda affected his writing. During the 1920s he tried to reorder his life，but failed. By 1930，his wife had her first breakdown and went to a Swiss clinic. During this period he completed novels Tender Is the Night in 1934 and The Love of the Last Tycoon in 1940. While his wife was in hospital in the United States，he got totally addicted to alcohol. Sheila Graham，his dear friend，helped him fight his alcoholism.
36. How many novels written by Fitzgerald are mentioned in the passage
A. 5 B. 6 C. 7 D. 8
37. We can infer from the passage that Fitzgerald ________.
A. had made some money when he met Zelda in Alabama
B. was well educated and well off before he served in the army
C. would have completed more works if his wife hadn’t broken down
D. helped his friend get rid of drinking while his wife was in hospital
38. The passage is probably followed by a concluding paragraph about ________.
A. Zelda’s personal life B. Zelda’s illness and treatment
C. Fitzgerald’s friendship with Graham D. Fitzgerald’s contributions to the literary world
B
Batteries can power anything from small sensors to large systems. While scientists are finding ways to make them smaller but even more powerful，problems can arise when these batteries are much larger and heavier than the devices themselves. University of Missouri(MU) researchers are developing a nuclear energy source that is smaller，lighter and more efficient.
“To provide enough power，we need certain methods with high energy density (密度)”，said Jae Kwon，assistant professor of electrical and computer engineering at MU. “The radioisotope (放射性同位素) battery can provide power density that is much higher than chemical batteries.”
Kwon and his research team have been working on building a small nuclear battery，presently the size and thickness of a penny，intended to power various micro / nanoelectromechanreal systems(M/NEMS). Although nuclear batteries can cause concerns，Kwon said they are safe.
“People hear the word ‘nuclear’ and think of something very dangerous，” he said，“However，nuclear power sources have already been safely powering a variety of devices，such as pace makers，space satellites and underwater systems.”
His new idea is not only in the battery’s size，but also in its semiconductor (半导体). Kwon’s battery uses a liquid semiconductor rather than a solid semiconductor.
“The key part of using a radioactive battery is that when you harvest the energy，part of the radiation energy can damage the lattice structure (晶体结构) of the solid semiconductor，” Kwon said，“By using a liquid semiconductor，we believe we can minimize that problem.”
Together with J. David Robertson，chemistry professor and associate director of the MU Research Reactor，Kwon is working to build and test the battery. In the future，they hope to increase the battery’s power，shrink its size and try with various other materials. Kwon said that battery could be thinner than the thickness of human hair.
39. Which of the following is true of Jae Kwon
A. He teaches chemistry at MU. 　　B. He developed a chemical battery.
C. He is working on a nuclear energy source. 　　D. He made a breakthrough in computer engineering.
40. Jae Kwon gave examples in Paragraph 4 ________.
A. to show chemical batteries are widely applied 　　
B. to introduce nuclear batteries can be safely used
C. to describe a nuclear powered system 　　
D. to introduce various energy sources
41. Liquid semiconductor is used to ________.
A. get rid of the radioactive waste B. test the power of nuclear batteries
C. decrease the size of nuclear batteries D. reduce the damage to lattice structure
42. According to Jae Kwon，his nuclear battery ________.
A. uses a solid semiconductor B. will soon replace the present ones
C. could be extremely thin D. has passed the final test
C

Memo
To: All Staff
From: Jakie Mok，Secretary；Sports Development Committee
Date: May 20,2010
A week ago，“Sports for Life” programme was sent to the parents，requiring them to select a sport they wanted their child to play. Since then，our staff have received lots of calls from parents asking for more information about it. Here is a memo(备忘录) for your reference when you answer the phones.
Sports 1：Basketball
We expect that this will be the most popular of the four sports. Therefore，students should be advised to sign up as soon as possible. Students will take a private bus to and from Kwun Tong Sports Park. To cover the cost of hiring a bus，each student will have to pay $10 each time. There will be four basketball courts available for our use with one teacher watching over each game.
Sports 2：Gym
We will be using St. Peter’s Memorial Park. There are two reasons for choosing this park. First，it is not very busy and crowded before 6∶00 pm. Second，it has lot of trees with plenty of shade. Students must bring along two bottles of water to prevent thirst. Three activities，skipping，jogging，outdoor aerobics (有氧运动)，all of which are free of charge，will be arranged. And there will be a teacher on duty for each of the activities.
Sports 3: Hiking
Hiking (远足)will take place at Kowloon Peak. The activity will start at 2∶30 pm and finish 90 minutes later. Three teachers will accompany the students，and a hiking instructor will accompany each group of 15 hikers. Each instructor will cost $75/hr. Students are advised to bring plenty of water and sunscreen.
Sports 4: Swimming
The Kowloon City Aquatic Centre is a 10 minute walk from our school. Four teachers will go to the pool and conduct the goings on from the poolside. We will only be able to reserve the pool for one hour(i. e. 2∶45pm to 3∶45pm). Only students skillful at swimming can take up this activity. The pool will have two lifeguards present. Girls must wear a swimming suit. The cost is $10 per visit.
43. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage
A. Students selecting basketball had better register early.
B. Students participating in gym should arrive at 6∶00 pm.

第三单元(Unit 3)综合提优测评卷(B卷)
一、1. B　考查形容词辨析。universal普遍的，通用的。句意为：“虽然世界上许多国家在教育体制上有一些不同，但教育却是通用的。”regular规则的，定期的；ordinary普通的；normal正常的。
2. B　句意为：“Maggie非常幸运找到了她喜欢的工作，而且待遇非常好。” sooner or later迟早；what's more此外，而且；as a result结果……；more or less或多或少。根据句意，B项正确。
3. A　句意为：“从他激动的表情上我能判断出他很激动。”excited(人)感到激动的；因激动而产生的表情，也用excited修饰。
4. A　考查动词词组。go by时间过去，流逝；go away离开；go out出去，熄灭；go over过来，温习。
5. B　anyhow表示“无论如何，即使如此”。in fact实际上；otherwise否则；so所以，均不合题意。
6. C　句意为：“在20世纪70年代，在他五十多岁时他开始学习俄语。”in the 1970s＝in the 1970’s 20世纪70年代，in one’s＋数词复数表示“某人多少岁时”。
7. A　such... that引导结果状语从句，意为“如此……以致……”，that是连接词，在从句中不作任何成分。句意为：“这个新故事以如此简单的英语写成，就连初学者都能读懂。”C项是as引导的定语从句，as是关系代词，在从句中要作主语或宾语，而此题中的从句不缺主语或宾语，若把it去掉，选C也正确。
8. A　考查固定短语。after all毕竟，终究；as a result结果；in other words换句话说；as usual像往常一样。根据语意“人们对于Kaven可能有不同看法，但我敬慕她，毕竟她是个伟大的音乐家”，选择A项。

14. C　signal sb. to do sth. 示意某人做某事。句意为：“当交通灯变绿时警察向孩子们做手势，让他们过马路。”由let/make sb. do sth. 可排除选项A、B；call命令，不符合题意。
15. A　根据语意可知，此处表示的是当时见面时，对方正在图书馆读书，因此用过去进行时。
二、16. D　从上句“a shabby homeless lady came walking towards me”可知，她在向路过的人讨钱。D.乞求；A.打招呼；B.表扬；C.申请。
17. A　从第二段第二句“... for the spare change I had”可知，她在向路人乞讨钱。

25. B　“我”把身上所能找到的(possibly)所有零钱都给了她。A.必要地；C.故意地；D.当然。
26. C　从上文“我”找遍了身上的零钱可知“我”追上了老人把“我”所找到(found)的零钱都给了她。A、D两项均表示赚(钱)，B项表示搜身。
27. B　从上文“She held my hand...”可知“我”可以感到她的手是粗糙的(rough)，从下文dirty也可以得到暗示。

34. D　“我”带着放松的心情走了，尽力地理解刚才发生的事情。make sense of理解，明白。
35. A　根据上下文语境，不难看出，这件事改变了“我”，使“我”想成为一个更加友善(kinder)的人。
三、36. A　37. C　38. D
39. C　细节理解题。根据第三段的叙述可知Kwon在研究一种原子能电池，所以C项正确。
40. B　细节理解题。根据文章第四段可知Kwon举例的目的是为了说明原子能电池是安全的，所以B项正确。
41. D　细节理解题。根据By using a liquid semiconductor，we believe we can minimize that problem可知D项正确。
42. C　细节理解题。根据Kwon said that battery could be thinner than the thickness of human hair可知C项正确。
