Venice is a famous 1,700-year-old city and one of Italy's most important cities and a very romantic travel destination.
Transportation in Venice
The Grand Canal, which cuts through the center of the city, is like Venice's main street in this canal-filled city.The boats runs along the Grand Canal from the train station and makes many stops, so it's a good way to visit the main canal and get a good overview of the city.If you want something more up close and personal, take a taxi and a gondola, though they tend to be more expensive.
Venice Festivals
Venice's Carnival, held 40 days before Easter, is one of the most lively and colourful celebrations in Italy.The Venetians go all out, wearing festive masks and costumes for a 10-day street party.In July, there's the Redentore Regatta, an important festival held right on the Grand Canal.
Guided Tours
You'll find guided tours for every place worth visiting, from well-known palaces to lesser-known destinations.Also, there are food tours and classes in rowing, cooking or making those beautiful theatrical masks Venice is famous for.
When to Go
Since it's near the sea, Venice has gentle weather, although it can be rainy there nearly all year round.Venice experiences high-water flooding about 60 days a year, from October through early January.In Venice, make sure you have some way to check the changeable weather every day.

Money might not grow on trees, but it seems that furniture does! Gavin Munro, a UK-based designer, has come up with a brilliant alternative to cutting beautiful trees and converting them into furniture.
He first came up with the idea of growing furniture when he was working as a gardener in California and also made furniture with washed-up driftwood on the side.
After several attempts, he finally managed to develop a model chair using four trees.Munro is now tending to a small 2.5 acre “furniture forest” of 400 trees in a field north of Derby, England.He uses specially designed plastic frames to make young oak and ash trees into the shapes of chairs, tables, frames, or lamps.
A forest that grows furniture sounds like a setting right out of Alice in Wonderland, but there's nothing magical about it, just a lot of hard work.The forest consists of rows upon rows of trees covered in blue plastic molds, converting them into furniture as they grow.Once they take the desired shape, they are cared for until thick, mature and ready for harvest.
After harvesting, each piece is planed (刨平) and finished to show off the wood grain (纹理) inside.“It's an art form in itself, keeping track of everything，” Munro said.
The entire process takes about four to eight years, resulting in fully functional, organic, eco-friendly furniture, and more long-lasting than anything else on the market.They are grown and grafted (嫁接) into one solid piece without any joints that loosen over time.As Munro puts it, “These pieces of furniture could last for centuries.”
Quality isn't an issue with forest-grown furniture, but maintenance and scalability (可伸缩性) certainly are.For now, Munro expects to grow 50 pieces a year, with the first lot of chairs available for purchase in mid-2017, priced at $3,700 each.
语篇解读：本文是一篇新闻报道。英国设计师加文·门罗想出了一个美妙的让树生钱的方法——在树上种植家具。
4．The first paragraph mainly serves as ________.

The Department of Energy (DOE) is dealing with a tough research problem that has troubled experts for more than a decade: developing a low-cost alternative to the present jet fuel.
The search began around 2010, originally pushed by the concerns about the country's reliance on imported oil.More recently, airlines have raised the question themselves.There are potential restrictions on the amount of carbon dioxide from jet airliners and a lack of an electricity-fueled replacement for their heavy planes.
Researchers at DOE's National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) are taking a fresh look at a promising family of new and plentiful raw materials: food wastes and urban used water containing human manure (粪肥)．
“Everyone is beginning to see the potential of taking these organic materials that we normally have sent to landfills or wastewater treatment plants，” said Derek Vardon, a senior research engineer at NREL.Manure and food wastes contain fatty acids that can be changed to link their chain-like structures together.The result is a liquid fuel, Vardon explained, one that has seven times the energy of methane — the major component of natural gas.That's needed to get a heavy airliner off the ground.
Other researchers are also sensing the potential of rich and low-carbon resources that could be developed by working with wastewater treatment plants.One of them is Jianping Yu, the main researcher of a separate NREL project that is exploring how to remove major and troublesome water pollutants from conventional wastewater treatment processes.His idea is to feed the pollutants to algae (海藻) in the wastewater plants and then sell the algae as a product that can be made into commercial fertilizers (肥料)．Yu's idea is to collect and develop special algae, so they can remove as much as 50% of the pollutants from processed wastewater.Growing more powerful algae, he points out, will also be a way to remove more CO2 from the air.The outcome is that it could reduce the amount of energy needed to run wastewater plants.“That's the goal.Our main motivation is future environmental requirements，” Yu said.
语篇解读：新能源需求日盛，科学家们的目光汇聚到了一处——污水处理厂，以期实现废弃物再利用。
8．Why are the airlines anxious to find a new kind of jet fuel
A．Their planes are heavier than before.
B．They want to rely less on imported oil.
C．Their oil fuel harms the environment.
D．They need to cut costs of electrical energy.
解析：选C 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“More recently, airlines have raised the question themselves.There are potential restrictions on the amount of carbon dioxide from jet airliners”可知，航空公司面临潜在的二氧化碳排放限制问题，所以需要替代燃料。据此推断，航空公司寻找新能源的根本原因就是目前的石油燃料引起了环境问题，对环境有害。
9．What can we learn about the liquid fuel according to Vardon
A．It has as much energy as natural gas.
B．It can be changed into fatty acids.
C．It's born out of organic wastes.
D．It's similar to natural gas in structure.
解析：选C 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“new and plentiful raw materials: food wastes and urban used water containing human manure”和第四段中的“these organic materials” “Manure and food wastes contain fatty acids that can be changed to link their chain-like structures together.The result is a liquid fuel, Vardon explained”可知，Vardon提到的有机原料指的是粪肥和食物垃圾，而粪肥和食物垃圾中含有脂肪酸，这些脂肪酸可以通过变化来把它们相似的链结构连起来，最终结果就是液态燃料。由此可知，液态燃料产生于有机废弃物。
10．What role does algae play in Jianping Yu's idea
A．Cleaning processed wastewater.
B．Producing green fuel.
C．Making commercial fertilizers.
D．Absorbing wastewater.
解析：选A 细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“His idea is to feed the pollutants to algae in the wastewater plants” “Yu's idea is to collect and develop special algae, so they can remove as much as 50% of the pollutants from processed wastewater.”可知，按照Jianping Yu的构想，这些海藻能够吃掉处理过的污水中的污染物，采集并培育特定的海藻，这些海藻就可以去除处理过的污水中多达50%的污染物，即这种海藻有净化处理过的污水的作用。
11．What does the text mainly tell us
A．Developing new fuel is quite necessary for airlines.
B．Researchers find a way of environmental protection.
C．Wastewater plants are a very useful source of new energy.
D．Search for clean jet fuel leads scientists to wastewater plants.
解析：选D 主旨大意题。本文第一段介绍研究者开始寻找新能源的话题；第二段介绍其原因；接下来介绍研究者将目光投向了一般被运送到污水处理厂的废弃物以及研究者对污水处理厂海藻新应用的研究情况。综上可知，本文介绍的新能源方案说明研究者们的目光汇聚到了一处——污水处理厂，故D选项概括了文章大意。
D
Gardening is popular in many parts of the world.This outdoor activity gives us beautiful plants, pleasant smelling flowers and fresh fruits and vegetables.But it also does a lot of good to our health.
Gardening connects people.When you are gardening, you are outdoors.So it is a perfect chance to meet and spend time with your neighbours.Most people love to talk about their hobbies, and gardeners are no different.They usually enjoy showing people what they are growing.And most enjoy sharing advice and stories about their gardens almost as much as sharing flowers and vegetables from their gardens.
Gardening is a great activity for children.It gets them outdoors and off computers, televisions and cell phones.Gardening is also a great teacher.It can teach a child about where food comes from and healthy eating.It also helps them to understand that the natural resources are not inexhaustible and the importance of using them carefully.
Then, when you garden, you must move around.All the different movements needed for gardening, like bending and lifting, work small muscles in the body.And you can easily get good exercise when you are digging holes or pulling grasses.
In a study, researchers looked at more than 2,800 people over the age of 60.They studied their lifestyle habits, activities and health over a 16-year period.They found that gardening could lower the risk of future dementia (痴呆) by 36%.Gardening requires people do many repeated actions, such as picking off dying flowers.These actions have a calming influence on the brain.The brain is still active but not in the same way when we use computers.
You'll feel wonderful when what you grow in a garden looks, smells, feels and tastes good.
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了园艺对人的好处。
12．What can be inferred from Paragraph 2
A．Gardeners don't feel lonely.
B．Gardeners are fond of sharing.
C．Gardeners have many hobbies.
D．Gardeners care about the environment.
解析：选A 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“When you are gardening ...meet and spend time with your neighbours.”可知，当你做园艺时，你可能会遇到邻居并和他们共度时光，由此可推知，你不会感到孤独。
13．What does the underlined word “inexhaustible” in Paragraph 3 mean
A．Useless. B．Special.
C．Endless. D．Cheap.
解析：选C 词义猜测题。根据第三段中的“It can teach a child ...healthy eating.”和画线词后的“the importance of using them carefully”可知，孩子要理解自然资源不是取之不尽的，因此，inexhaustible 意为“用不完的”，与C项意思相近。
14．What is the study used to show
A．Gardening is popular with the old.
B．Gardening is good for health.
C．Gardening can be a tiring activity.
D．Gardening is better than playing computers.
解析：选B 推理判断题。根据第五段中的“They found that gardening could lower the risk of future dementia by 36%.”可知，作者提到这个研究是为了表明园艺有利于健康。
15．What's the purpose of the text
A．To show how to garden.
B．To encourage us to garden.
C．To show gardening is popular.
D．To encourage us to do outdoor activities.
解析：选B 写作意图题。本文全篇都在介绍做园艺的各种好处，由此可推断出作者写这篇文章的目的是鼓励我们去做园艺。

Dear Sir/Madam，
I'm Li Hua, a middle school student. I am writing to inform you of the situation of the birds in the mountains. Some people are catching the lovely birds in the woods.
It is known that animals are human beings' friends. We are to live harmoniously with them. For one thing, they can catch pests for farmers; for another, without birds our forests would not be lively.
In order to protect birds from being caught or killed, we should widely spread the laws of animal protection. Besides, education and raising people's awareness are effective measures.
Yours，

I was born and grew up in a small seaside town.In my childhood, I often played on the beach with my elder sister, chasing the waves and enjoying the seaside scenery.
One sunny summer afternoon, my sister and I were playing on a big rock quite a distance from the beach.We were so happy that we didn't notice the water rising.When we decided to go back, we were shocked to find that the rock had almost been covered by water and there was no way back to the shore.Meanwhile, the wind blew harder and harder.We got into a panic, waving and shouting crazily towards the shore.Suddenly, I slipped (滑) and fell into the sea.My sister stretched out her hand to catch hold of me.However, she could not stay still, and slid off the rock into the sea, too.
“Help! Help！” We cried.I could feel my body tingling (酸麻) as I tried to breathe for air.I attempted to swim back to the rock, but the water was too deep and the waves were too strong.What made things worse was that the rough water made it almost impossible for anyone to hear our cries.Tears mixed with the water as I struggled in the sea.My sister, although using all her strength, wasn't able to pull me in.Instead, she was being pushed apart from me by the big waves.The two of us, scared to death, kept crying.

Paragraph 1：
Luckily, two boys playing on the beach happened to see us.They quickly found a stick nearby and approached us cautiously hand in hand.They tried to pull us ashore with the stick.But the stick was too short for us to reach.Worse still, the wind was getting so strong that the two boys were rocked from side to side, unable to stand steadily.Eventually, they had no choice but to go back to the shore to look for other people to help us.
Paragraph 2：
Fortunately, the two boys managed to find a lifeguard.Having learned what was happening, the lifeguard rushed fearlessly against the strong wind and huge waves.Such an experienced swimmer was he that he reached us in no time.He grabbed my arm and quickly carried me to the shore, where he left me taken care of by the two boys.Then, without delay, he returned to save my sister.We were so blessed to be alive and heartily thankful to that courageous lifeguard and the two boys who had saved our lives！UNIT 5 单元验收评价(一) 单元语基温故

A
Venice is a famous 1,700-year-old city and one of Italy's most important cities and a very romantic travel destination.
Transportation in Venice
The Grand Canal, which cuts through the center of the city, is like Venice's main street in this canal-filled city.The boats runs along the Grand Canal from the train station and makes many stops, so it's a good way to visit the main canal and get a good overview of the city.If you want something more up close and personal, take a taxi and a gondola, though they tend to be more expensive.
Venice Festivals
Venice's Carnival, held 40 days before Easter, is one of the most lively and colourful celebrations in Italy.The Venetians go all out, wearing festive masks and costumes for a 10-day street party.In July, there's the Redentore Regatta, an important festival held right on the Grand Canal.
Guided Tours
You'll find guided tours for every place worth visiting, from well-known palaces to lesser-known destinations.Also, there are food tours and classes in rowing, cooking or making those beautiful theatrical masks Venice is famous for.
When to Go
Since it's near the sea, Venice has gentle weather, although it can be rainy there nearly all year round.Venice experiences high-water flooding about 60 days a year, from October through early January.In Venice, make sure you have some way to check the changeable weather every day.
1．Which transportation will you choose if you want to have a good overview of the city
A．By gondola. B．By car.
C．By train. D．By boat.
2．Which festival took place on the Grand Canal
A．Carnival. B．Easter.
C．Redentore Regatta. D．Christmas.
3．If you want to know more about Italian cooking, you'd better ________.
A．stay in a romantic hotel
B．wear a nice mask
C．know its weather first
D．take a guided tour
B
Money might not grow on trees, but it seems that furniture does! Gavin Munro, a UK-based designer, has come up with a brilliant alternative to cutting beautiful trees and converting them into furniture.
He first came up with the idea of growing furniture when he was working as a gardener in California and also made furniture with washed-up driftwood on the side.
After several attempts, he finally managed to develop a model chair using four trees.Munro is now tending to a small 2.5 acre “furniture forest” of 400 trees in a field north of Derby, England.He uses specially designed plastic frames to make young oak and ash trees into the shapes of chairs, tables, frames, or lamps.
A forest that grows furniture sounds like a setting right out of Alice in Wonderland, but there's nothing magical about it, just a lot of hard work.The forest consists of rows upon rows of trees covered in blue plastic molds, converting them into furniture as they grow.Once they take the desired shape, they are cared for until thick, mature and ready for harvest.
After harvesting, each piece is planed (刨平) and finished to show off the wood grain (纹理) inside.“It's an art form in itself, keeping track of everything，” Munro said.
The entire process takes about four to eight years, resulting in fully functional, organic, eco-friendly furniture, and more long-lasting than anything else on the market.They are grown and grafted (嫁接) into one solid piece without any joints that loosen over time.As Munro puts it, “These pieces of furniture could last for centuries.”
Quality isn't an issue with forest-grown furniture, but maintenance and scalability (可伸缩性) certainly are.For now, Munro expects to grow 50 pieces a year, with the first lot of chairs available for purchase in mid-2017, priced at $3,700 each.
4．The first paragraph mainly serves as ________.
A．a comment B．praise
C．an introduction D．a background
5．Gavin Munro thought of growing furniture ________.
A．while serving as a gardener
B．while relaxing at home
C．while studying in California
D．while growing up
6．What plays a key role in growing furniture
A．Rich imagination. B．Perfect design.
C．Adequate irrigation. D．Hard work.
7．The passage is probably taken from ________.
A．an essay B．a report
C．a novel D．a diary
C
The Department of Energy (DOE) is dealing with a tough research problem that has troubled experts for more than a decade: developing a low-cost alternative to the present jet fuel.
The search began around 2010, originally pushed by the concerns about the country's reliance on imported oil.More recently, airlines have raised the question themselves.There are potential restrictions on the amount of carbon dioxide from jet airliners and a lack of an electricity-fueled replacement for their heavy planes.
Researchers at DOE's National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) are taking a fresh look at a promising family of new and plentiful raw materials: food wastes and urban used water containing human manure (粪肥)．
“Everyone is beginning to see the potential of taking these organic materials that we normally have sent to landfills or wastewater treatment plants，” said Derek Vardon, a senior research engineer at NREL.Manure and food wastes contain fatty acids that can be changed to link their chain-like structures together.The result is a liquid fuel, Vardon explained, one that has seven times the energy of methane — the major component of natural gas.That's needed to get a heavy airliner off the ground.
Other researchers are also sensing the potential of rich and low-carbon resources that could be developed by working with wastewater treatment plants.One of them is Jianping Yu, the main researcher of a separate NREL project that is exploring how to remove major and troublesome water pollutants from conventional wastewater treatment processes.His idea is to feed the pollutants to algae (海藻) in the wastewater plants and then sell the algae as a product that can be made into commercial fertilizers (肥料)．Yu's idea is to collect and develop special algae, so they can remove as much as 50% of the pollutants from processed wastewater.Growing more powerful algae, he points out, will also be a way to remove more CO2 from the air.The outcome is that it could reduce the amount of energy needed to run wastewater plants.“That's the goal.Our main motivation is future environmental requirements，” Yu said.
8．Why are the airlines anxious to find a new kind of jet fuel
A．Their planes are heavier than before.
B．They want to rely less on imported oil.
C．Their oil fuel harms the environment.
D．They need to cut costs of electrical energy.
9．What can we learn about the liquid fuel according to Vardon
A．It has as much energy as natural gas.
B．It can be changed into fatty acids.
C．It's born out of organic wastes.
D．It's similar to natural gas in structure.
10．What role does algae play in Jianping Yu's idea
A．Cleaning processed wastewater.
B．Producing green fuel.
C．Making commercial fertilizers.
D．Absorbing wastewater.
11．What does the text mainly tell us
A．Developing new fuel is quite necessary for airlines.
B．Researchers find a way of environmental protection.
C．Wastewater plants are a very useful source of new energy.
D．Search for clean jet fuel leads scientists to wastewater plants.
D
Gardening is popular in many parts of the world.This outdoor activity gives us beautiful plants, pleasant smelling flowers and fresh fruits and vegetables.But it also does a lot of good to our health.
Gardening connects people.When you are gardening, you are outdoors.So it is a perfect chance to meet and spend time with your neighbours.Most people love to talk about their hobbies, and gardeners are no different.They usually enjoy showing people what they are growing.And most enjoy sharing advice and stories about their gardens almost as much as sharing flowers and vegetables from their gardens.
Gardening is a great activity for children.It gets them outdoors and off computers, televisions and cell phones.Gardening is also a great teacher.It can teach a child about where food comes from and healthy eating.It also helps them to understand that the natural resources are not inexhaustible and the importance of using them carefully.
Then, when you garden, you must move around.All the different movements needed for gardening, like bending and lifting, work small muscles in the body.And you can easily get good exercise when you are digging holes or pulling grasses.
In a study, researchers looked at more than 2,800 people over the age of 60.They studied their lifestyle habits, activities and health over a 16-year period.They found that gardening could lower the risk of future dementia (痴呆) by 36%.Gardening requires people do many repeated actions, such as picking off dying flowers.These actions have a calming influence on the brain.The brain is still active but not in the same way when we use computers.
You'll feel wonderful when what you grow in a garden looks, smells, feels and tastes good.
12．What can be inferred from Paragraph 2
A．Gardeners don't feel lonely.
B．Gardeners are fond of sharing.
C．Gardeners have many hobbies.
D．Gardeners care about the environment.
13．What does the underlined word “inexhaustible” in Paragraph 3 mean
A．Useless. B．Special.
C．Endless. D．Cheap.
14．What is the study used to show
A．Gardening is popular with the old.
B．Gardening is good for health.
C．Gardening can be a tiring activity.
D．Gardening is better than playing computers.
15．What's the purpose of the text
A．To show how to garden.
B．To encourage us to garden.
C．To show gardening is popular.
D．To encourage us to do outdoor activities.
