Unit6 Using language 能力提升练
Ⅰ.阅读理解
(2019浙江金华期中)
Walk through the Amazon rainforest today and you will find it steamy,warm,damp and thick. But if you had been there around 15,000 years ago during the last ice age,would it have been the same?For more than 30 years,scientists have been arguing about how rainforests might have reacted to the cold dry climate of the ice ages but till now.no one has reached a satisfying answer.
Rainforests like the Amazon are important for mopping up CO2,from the atmosphere and helping to solve global warming. Currently the trees in the Amazon take in around 500 million tons of co each year,equal to the total amount of CO2,given off in the UK each year. But how will the Amazon react to the future climate change?If it gets drier,will it survive and continue to draw down CO2. Scientists hope that they will be able to learn in advance how the rainforest will manage in the future by understanding how rainforests reacted to climate change in the past.
Unfortunately,collecting information is incredibly difficult. To study the past climate,scientists need to difficult look at fossilized pollen(花粉)kept in lake mud. Going back to the last ice age means drilling down into lake sediment(沉积物),which requires specialized equipment and heavy machinery. There are very few roads and paths,or places to land helicopters and aeroplanes. Rivers tend to be the easiest way to enter the forest but this still leaves vast areas between the rivers completely unsampled(未取样).So far,only a handful of cores have been drilled that go back to the last ice age and none of them provide enough information to prove how the amazon forest reacted to climate change.
1. How do scientists study the past climate change
A. By predicting the climate change in the future.
B. By drilling down deep into land sediment.
C. By taking samples from rivers in the Amazon.
D. By analyzing fossilized pollen in lake mud.
2. What is needed for drilling down into lake sediment
A. The latest helicopter.
B. The special equipment.
C. The light machinery.
D. The narrow path.
3. What is the purpose of writing the passage
A. To attract more people's attention to CO2
B. To call on people to protect rainforests.
C. To inform people of how scientists work on rainforests.
D. To warn people to stay away from the danger of rainforests.
4. The best title for the text may be ________.
A. Mystery of the Rainforest
B. Climates of the rainforest
C. The history of the rainforest
D. Changes of the rainforest

Ali and his younger sister,Zahra, lived with their parents in a poor neighborhood. Their mother was very sick and their father was struggling to find a job,and they had only a little money with which to buy food. As they had not paid the rent for several months,the landlord was breathing down their necks(紧盯着他们).
One day,Ali took Zahra's shoes to a shoe repairman to be fixed,but he lost them on the way home. It wasn't until he got home that he realized he had lost the shoes. He was afraid that his parents would be angry and disappointed,so he begged his sister to keep it secret. Zahra agreed and the two decided to share Ali’s running shoes. Zahra's school hours were in the morning, so she would wear them first. After school, she would rush back and give them to Ali. He could then run to his school, which began in the afternoon. Although he ran as fast as he could. Ali often arrived late and was warned by the school.
Ali heard about a long distance race that would be held for the boys in the city. when he learned that the third prize was a new pair of shoes, he decided to take part. He ran home excitedly and promised his sister that he would win her the new shoes.
The day of race arrived. Ali had a strong start but halfway through the race he began to get tired and his legs began to ache. Getting more and more exhausted he thought only of Zahra and his promise to her. Dreaming of the new shoes he would win for his sister gave him strength, and he stayed right behind the two fastest runners determined to finish third Suddenly, as the finish line drew near, another runner collided(碰撞) with Ali from behind and he crashed to the ground.

参考答案:
Ⅰ.阅读理解
语篇解读:文章主要介绍了科学家为研究亚马孙雨林将如何应对将来的气候变化而对过去的雨林是如何度过冰河时期进行取样研究。
1.D细节理解题。根据文中第三段第二句 To study the past climate,scientists need to look at fossilized pollen(花粉)kept in lake mud.可知,要研究过去的气候,科学家需要看保存在湖泥中的花粉化石。故选D。
2.B细节理解题。根据文中第三段第三句 Going back to the last ice age means drilling down into lake sediment(沉积物)which requires specialized equipment and heavy machinery. 可知,钻到湖泊沉积物需要专门的设备和重型机械。C选项错在light。故选B。
3.C推理判断题。这是一篇科普文章,通常写作目的是提供信息。A选项是吸引更多人对二氧化碳的注意,和文章无关;B选项是号召人们保护雨林,此文不是强调保护雨林;D选项是警告人们远离雨林的危险,文章没有讲到雨林的危险。故选C。
4.A主旨大意题。根据第一段后两句 But if you had been there around 15,000 years ago,during the last ice age,would it have been the same?For more than 30 years,scientists have been arguing about how rainforests might have reacted to the cold,dry climate of the ice ages,but till now,no one has reached a satisfying answer.可知,人们对于雨林怎样应对气候变化一直没有满意的答案,二三段讲述的是科学家进行该研究的价值和具体实践及遇到的困难,所有这些都是为了揭开原因,所以标题为“雨林的神秘”是最恰当的。B、C、D选项都仅仅是文章提到的部分信息。故选A。
Ⅱ.七选五
语篇解读:文章提到任何人都不可能是一个孤岛,都需要和他人、朋友联系。但是,什么是真正的朋友呢?文章阐述了什么是真正的朋友及朋友的意义等。
1. B过渡句。设空处上一句提到随着年龄增长,我们会和某些人发展亲密关系。下面的段落接着介绍 a group of friends的意义。中间需要衔接句子。选项B中的 These指代上句中的 certain people。故选B。
2. E过渡句。设空处后面是由but连接的一个表示转折关系的分句,因此设空处的意思肯定和后面相对应。but后面说朋友总是和你联系着,选项E “Parents may not fully understand what you are going through”提到父母可能不能完全理解你,与“正经历相同的事情”正好与此对应,且 going through为词汇复现,故选E。
3. G细节句。本题属于段中题。设空处上句话提到最好的好朋友是什么样的人,下句话说这个人总会相信并支持你。因此,中间也应该是介绍最好的朋友的作用和意义。G项提到最好的朋友是你的肩膀和守护者,正好合适。
4. D主旨句。本题属于段首题。段首句一般是引领本段的主旨句。不过,也有可能是引出话题句。综合分析本段意思,设空处后面主要介绍好友虽分开多年,但情谊不断,即使彼此再忙,一次重聚就会重燃美好的回忆。D项提出朋友不必总是待在一起正好引领本段。
5. A主旨句。设空处位于该段最后,有时会是总结句。设空处上句提到好友的作用。A项提到这就是友谊的真正价值和本质,且该项中的That指代的就是上句话所说的内容。故选A。
Ⅲ.读后续写
One possible version:
Paragraph 1:
Ali looked up and saw the other boys rushing ahead. Refusing to give up at this point, he jumped to his feet and ran as fast as he could. He dashed across the finish line and won the fourth prize. Thinking he would let her sister down, Ali couldn’t help sobbing. Just then he suddenly heard the announcement from the broadcast that he won the third prize as the: runner who collided with Ali was disqualified for breaking the rule. Holding the shoes close to his chest during the award ceremony, Ali felt overjoyed and relieved as he eventually won the shoes for his sister.
Paragraph 2:
Filled with pleasure, Ali walked home quickly. He could not wait to see his sister and share the good news. On his arrival, Ali found Zahra was waiting outside. Nervous and anxious, Zahra wondered whether her brother had brought her what she was expecting. “Zahra, see what I have got for you.” Ali said excitedly, taking the prize out of his bag with his trembling hands The instant Zahra saw the shoes, her face lit up. So thrilled was she that she threw herself at Ali. “Thank you! Ali.” Tears of joy welled up in their eyes as the brother and the sister hugged tightly together.
