A
In 1947 a group of famous people from the art world headed by an Austrian conductor decided to hold an international festival of music,dance and theatre in Edinburgh.The idea was to reunite Europe after the Second World War.
It quickly attracted famous names such as Alec Guinness,Richard Burton,Dame Margot Fonteyn and Marlene Dietrich as well as the big symphony orchestras(交响乐团).It became a fixed event every August and now attracts 400,000 people yearly.
At the same time,the “Fringe” appeared as a challenge(挑战) to the official festival.Eight theatre groups turned up uninvited in 1947,in the belief that everyone should have the right to perform,and they did so in a public house disused for years.
Soon,groups of students firstly from Edinburgh University,and later from the universities of Oxford and Cambridge,Durham and Birmingham were making the journey to the Scottish capital each summer to perform theatre by little-known writers of plays in small church halls to the people of Edinburgh.
Today the “Fringe”,once less recognized,has far outgrown the festival with around 1,500 performances of theatre,music and dance on every one of the 21 days it lasts.And yet as early as 1959,with only 19 theatre groups performing,some said it was getting too big.
A paid administrator(行政人员) was first employed only in 1971,and today there are eight administrators working all year round and the number rises to 150 during August itself.In 2004 there were 200 places housing 1,695 shows by over 600 different groups from 50 different countries.More than 1.25 million tickets were sold.
1.What was the purpose of Edinburgh Festival at the beginning
A.To bring Europe together again.
B.To honor heroes of World War Ⅱ.
C.To introduce young theatre groups.
D.To attract great artists from Europe.
2.Why did some uninvited theatre groups come to Edinburgh in 1947
A.They owned a public house there.
B.They came to take up a challenge.
C.They thought they were also famous.
D.They wanted to take part in the festival.
3.What does the underlined word “Fringe” mean in the third paragraph
A.Unpopular groups.
B.Non-official groups.
C.Foreign groups.
D.Local groups.
4.We may learn from the text that Edinburgh Festival .

People often go to cafes to relax themselves and keep themselves from falling asleep,but Mr.Healing,a popular cafe chain in South Korea actually does the opposite.Customers can come in,order a drink,lie down a comfortable massage(按摩) chair,and take a nap.
Many Koreans suffer from a lack of sleep as a result of overworking,so any opportunity to relax and even take a nap is greatly appreciated.Mr.Healing is the perfect place to go when you’re on a short work or school break and you need to catch up on sleep.The cafe offers massage periods in various modes,depending on how much time you have and how you choose to spend it.
The 20-minute session is priced at $3.5,the 30-minute massage costs $7,and the 50-minute session is $9,all of which also include a drink.Once you make your choice,you are taken to the “healing center”.You are asked to take off your shoes as well as any jewelry that might damage the chairs,after which you can choose a massage mode,from “stretch” to “sleep”.You can start with stretch for a few minutes,and then switch to sleep if you want to take a short nap.After it comes to an end,you are taken back to the cafe area to enjoy a coffee or one of the many other refreshing drinks on the menu.
Mr.Healing cafes are so popular in Korea that customers are advised to make reservations in advance to be sure that a massage chair is available.“I have to sit on a chair and stare at a computer monitor all day due to my job.The healing room was truly effective to relieve tiredness and stress from weekdays,” said Park Hye-sun,a 24-year-old officer.
Some have described Mr.Healing and other similar cafes in South Korea as simple fashions,but others see them as a sustainable business model,because they offer a service that Koreans really need.

Ⅴ.读后续写
阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
A philosophy professor stood before his class with some items on the table in front of him.When the class began,wordlessly he picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise(蛋黄酱) jar and tried to fill it with rocks,about 2 inches in diameter(直径).
He then asked the students if the jar was full.They agreed that it was.
So the professor then picked up a box of pebbles(卵石) and poured them into the jar.He shook the jar lightly.The pebbles,of course,rolled into the open areas between the rocks.
He then asked the students again if the jar was full.They agreed it was.
The professor picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar.Of course,the sand filled up the remaining open areas of the jar.
He then asked once more if the jar was full.The students all responded “Yes”.
“Now,” said the professor,“I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life.The rocks are the important things—your family,your partner,your health,your children—things that if everything else was lost and only they remained,your life would still be full.The pebbles are the other things that matter—like your job,your house,your car.The sand is everything else—the small stuff.”
“If you put the sand into the jar first,” he continued,“there is no room for the pebbles or the rocks.The same goes for your life.If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff,you will never have room for the things that are important to you.Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness.Play with your children.Take your partner out dancing.There will always be time to go to work,clean the house and give a dinner party.”
“Take care of the rocks first—the things that really matter.Set your priorities(优先权).The rest is just sand.”
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式作答。
After the professor finished explaining what he really meant,
Life is colourful.

1.A 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“The idea was to reunite Europe after the Second World War.”可知,Edinburgh Festival是为了在第二次世界大战后重新团结欧洲而设立的。故选A项。

4.D 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“today there are eight administrators working...from 50 different countries.”可知,它发展得非常快。所以选D项。
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了韩国很流行的咖啡连锁店Mr.Healing,顾客可以在里面喝饮料、按摩和睡觉。

Ⅴ. After the professor finished explaining what he really meant,some students understood what he said so they thought rocks were important,which were the base of a family.Sand could add pleasure to life,such as going to the park with parents and children on weekends,playing with children and so on.In addition,life could be filled with the pebbles,which brought other things to life.However,some others couldn’t understand what the philosophy professor said.They often made some mistakes in life,and ignored their family,health or even children,which caused trouble to life.To be honest,the philosophy professor compared life to a jar,and gave us more examples of explanation,and we should understand what’s the meaning of life.
Life is colourful.It can bring happiness,anger,sadness,sorrow and so on.We should value our life and family.What’s more,we should spend more time staying with children and parents,and of course,also do better in the job.UNIT 3分层跟踪检测(二)LESSON 2 & LESSON 3

A
Baseball was always where my heart lay.However,my father did not care for baseball.Two sports he enjoyed were golfing and fishing,neither of which I considered a real sport.He didn’t talk much and he wasn’t good at expressing himself.Frankly,I wasn’t sure he cared about me.In a way,my father was like a familiar stranger I saw every day.
One day,watching the play on television made me want a glove of my own.To my surprise,my father said he wanted one,too.We bought two gloves,and that evening,he suggested we go out to the courtyard and throw the ball around.I’d already practiced catching and throwing at school,but I could tell this was the first time for my father,because every time he caught the ball,it landed directly in his palm.If you’ve ever caught a ball with a baseball glove,you know how much this hurts.
But my father caught ball after ball this way.Slap! Slap! He winced(龇牙咧嘴).After about five minutes,I told him I’d had enough.It wasn’t out of mercy,but for my own self-interest.Neighborhood kids were watching and would no doubt laugh at me later for having an old man who didn’t know how to properly catch a baseball.When my father took the glove off,his palm was red and swollen.
Dad,who passed away 11 years ago,never told me he loved me.But that sound of the baseball landing in the soft flesh of his hand,over and over again — spoke its own tender language,though at the time,all I felt was shame.

Every American family has its own traditions on Thanksgiving Day,and mine is no different.Once the national holiday arrives,my mom rises early to make the meal.She puts a turkey in the oven,chops carrots and bakes pies.I’m sorry to say that the men in the family—my dad,my younger brother and I myself—rarely pitch in to help.Our job is to wash the mountain of dirty dishes after the meal is over.
Around 2 pm every Thanksgiving Day,family members seat themselves around the kitchen table.Plates of turkey,vegetables,salad,rolls and pies cover it.At this point,we can hardly keep ourselves from drooling(流口水) all over our fancy clothes,but it’s not yet time to eat.
First,we must bow our heads,close our eyes and say a prayer of thanks aloud to God for giving us everything we have.Under normal circumstances,I would have no problem making a list of things I am thankful for.I grew up in a loving family.My parents,who aren’t wealthy,took out loans to help me pay for the university.
However,the funny thing is,every time I sit down for Thanksgiving dinner and try to say a prayer of thanks,my mind usually goes blank.I think it has something to do with my growling (咕咕叫) stomach and all of that food sitting right there under my nose.
Eventually,though,we all finish our short prayers and dig in.To be sure,the day includes other highlights—visiting with family and watching football.But usually around 6 pm we are all ourselves stuffed like turkeys and thankful to have a nice warm bed to sleep in.

Ⅵ.七选五
The door opens and you are amazed at seeing people jumping and flying around like superheroes.Calm down,you are not in a film,just a trampoline(蹦床) park.
In recent years trampolining has become a new craze among Chinese youths.Short videos are regularly uploaded to social media showing people’s excitement about jumping back and forth on the colourful trampolines.Most videos feature teenagers. 1
Ms Shi,a 28-year-old from Beijing,goes to trampoline parks almost every weekend.She said,“When I was a child,I loved bouncing up and down on the trampolines,though they were small and simple ones.They made me feel free and happy. 2 ”
It’s true that today’s trampoline parks are bigger,more professional and more creative. 3 You can jump,play in the inflatables(充气垫),or shoot basketballs.Also,if you’re brave enough,you can learn to walk on the wall.
“Trampolining is so much fun.It doesn’t feel like exercising at all,” Ms Shi said. 4 According to Robert Smith,a British sports therapist,“The trampoline pad is bouncy and absorbs a large amount of the impact of your landing,so your bones and joints are protected and strengthened at the same time.”
Unlike playing soccer,basketball,tennis or any other competitive sports,the risk of injury while trampolining is relatively low. 5 “You must do warm-up exercises before playing.And you can’t lose concentration during the movements,” Peter Cheng,a trampoline fan who also owns a trampoline park,warned.
While outdoor activities are largely up to the weather,the indoor trampoline parks are good places to go whenever you are seeking a fun cardio workout (有氧运动).
A.Nowadays the places are much better.
B.It is a fun activity to share with friends.
C.There are separate zones for different functions.
D.However,preparation and safety always come first.
E.Specially designed clothes are needed when you trampoline.
F.Indeed,a trampoline workout can be beneficial to your health.
G.Adults too have jumped on the trend,hoping to relive their childhood.

Ⅴ.【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。作者主要讲述了父亲陪自己打棒球的经历,体现了父亲对作者深深的爱。
1.A 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“However,my father did not care for baseball.”可知,父亲不喜欢棒球。故选A项。
2.A 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“However,my father did not care for baseball.Two sports he enjoyed were golfing and fishing,neither of which I considered a real sport.He didn’t talk much and he wasn’t good at expressing himself.”可知,父亲不喜欢棒球,而且是个不善言辞的人;第二段中的“One day,watching the play on television made me want a glove of my own.To my surprise,my father said he wanted one,too.”可知,父亲知道作者想要一副棒球手套后,就说自己也想要一副,而且下文“...that evening,he suggested we go out to the courtyard and throw the ball around”中提到父亲甘愿当作者的陪练,因此推断父亲想要一副棒球手套是想让作者开心,故选A项。
3.D 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“After about five minutes,I told him I’d had enough.It wasn’t out of mercy,but for my own self-interest.Neighborhood kids were watching and would no doubt laugh at me later for having an old man who didn’t know how to properly catch a baseball.When my father took the glove off,his palm was red and swollen.”可知,父亲陪作者打棒球,让作者感到尴尬羞耻,尽管父亲的手又红又肿,但是作者并不快乐,结合最后一段可推断,作者当时没有意识到父亲对自己的爱。故选D项。
4.C 主旨大意题。通过阅读文章可知,作者以前认为父亲不关心自己,甚至觉得他是个熟悉的陌生人,因为作者当时感受不到父亲“爱”的声音;但是多年以后作者为自己当时的想法感到羞愧,因为父亲一直用自己的行动来表达。接棒球的声音表达了对作者的爱,这是“爱的声音”。C项作为文章的标题最合适。故选C项。
【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。作者对自己的家人如何庆祝感恩节进行了描写,充分展现了一家人其乐融融的景象。
5.B 主旨大意题。作者开门见山地点明美国每家每户都有自己的感恩节传统,然后详细描述他们一家人这一天的活动,因此B项“讲述这一家人如何过感恩节”能概括全文大意。
6.A 细节理解题。文章前四段描述作者一家人准备感恩节大餐,最后一段中的“Eventually,though,we all finish our short prayers and dig in.”说明一家人终于开吃了,首先排除C项;再由最后一段中的“To be sure,the day includes other highlights—visiting with family and watching football.”可知,这一天作者一家人还会走访亲友以及观看足球赛等,故排除B、D两项;文章没有提及A项活动,所以选A项。
7.B 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“I think it has something to do with my growling stomach and all of that food sitting right there under my nose.”可知,作者吃大餐之前祈祷以示感恩时,心思全被眼前的美食所吸引,所以B项正确。
8.D 词义猜测题。根据前文对一家人准备大餐以及作者心思全被眼前的美食所吸引的描述,再由本句中的Eventually“终于”一词,不难看出dig in在此表示(一家人)“开吃”了,所以D项正确。
Ⅵ.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述的是蹦床公园越来越流行,并说明了蹦床这项运动的好处以及运动要求。
1.G 由前文“Short videos are regularly uploaded to social media showing people’s excitement about jumping back and forth on the colourful trampolines.Most videos feature teenagers.”可知,前文讲述了蹦床这项运动越来越流行,尤其是在青少年中。G项“成年人也紧跟潮流,希望重温他们的童年。”顺承前句,尤其是选项中的“too”一词,表明蹦床在成年人中也变得流行。故选G项。
2.A 本段是一个喜欢蹦床的28岁的北京人的感受。由前文“When I was a child,I loved bouncing up and down...made me feel free and happy.”可知,A项“如今这些地方更好了。”与上文“they were small and simple ones”形成对比,说明现在的蹦床更好了。故选A项。
3.C 由前文“It’s true that today’s trampoline parks are bigger,more professional and more creative.”以及后文“You can jump...you can learn to walk on the wall.”可知,前文说蹦床公园越来越大,后文讲的是你在蹦床公园里的活动,故C项“里面有针对不同功能的不同区域。”承接前句,进一步介绍蹦床公园,故选C项。
4.F 由后文“According to Robert Smith,a British sports therapist,‘The trampoline pad is...so your bones and joints are protected and strengthened at the same time.’”可知,后文讲述的是蹦床这项运动给人身体带来的好处,故F项“实际上,蹦床锻炼对你的健康有好处。”符合本段大意。故选F项。
5.D 由后文“You must do warm-up exercises before playing.And you can’t lose concentration during the movements”可知,下文在讲蹦床运动的热身准备和安全注意事项,D项“然而,准备和安全永远都是第一位的。”与下文内容一致,故选D项。
Ⅶ.【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了澳大利亚的19岁女孩Alyssa Azar经过两次失败之后,终于成为澳大利亚最年轻的成功攀登珠穆朗玛峰的人。
1.D 下文提到她之前两次攀登珠穆朗玛峰,2014年遇到雪崩,2015年遇到地震,而这次终于没有“问题”,成功地到达了山顶。故选D项。
2.A 文章第一句说明她是澳大利亚历史上最年轻的攀登珠峰的人,这是一个非常巨大的“成就”。故选A项。
3.C 结合文章第一句中的“succeeded”可知,她“成功地”攀登了珠峰。故选C项。
4.B 根据空格后面的“to achieve for several years”可知,她“决心”无论如何也要成功地攀登珠峰。故选B项。
5.A 此处指她无论遇到什么困难也不“放弃”她的决心。give up意为“放弃”。故选A项。
6.C 上文提到了“This has been a goal”可知,这是她第三次来实现自己的“目标”。achieve one’s goal意为“实现目标”。故选C项。
7.D 结合文意可知,雪崩和地震曾经阻止她成功“到达”山顶。故选D项。
8.C 结合上文的“she said both trips had left her better”可知,虽然她曾经失败了两次,但是她认为这两次经历都让她为以后的攀登做了更好的“准备”。故选C项。
9.A 她打开帐篷,目的是让帐篷里面充满空气。leave后接非谓语动词作宾补,意为“使……处于某种状态”。故选A项。
10.D 此处指她接受过的培训是让帐篷里充满空气,给救援人员“留出”时间。allow此处指“留出,给出”。故选D项。
11.C 根据后面的“I woke up”可知,当时她正在帐篷里面,昏昏欲睡。故选C项。
12.A 根据后面的“half of her tent but she escaped”可知,当时地震引起雪崩,雪“埋住”了她帐篷的一半,但是她幸运地逃了出来。故选A项。
13.D 根据句中的but可推知,她的帐篷一半被雪埋住了,但是她没有“受伤”地逃了出来。故选D项。
14.B 结合下文的“crossing the Kokoda Track in Papua New Guinea”可知,这是她8岁时候的第一次“挑战”。故选B项。
15.C 结合语境,此处应是指澳大利亚的十大“最高”山峰,故选C项。
Ⅷ.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了中国的春节,它是中国的传统节日之一。人们会有各种各样的活动,每个家庭在春节时都是其乐融融的。
1.called 考查非谓语动词。句子的谓语动词是is,call不是谓语动词,The Spring Festival和call之间为被动关系,应使用过去分词。故填called。
2.a 考查冠词。表示“一段悠久的历史”,应使用不定冠词,long是以辅音音素开头的单词。故填a。
3.important 考查形容词。动词is后面用形容词作表语,importance(重要)是名词,它的形容词是important(重要的)。故填important。
4.their 考查代词。句子主语是people,代替people作houses的定语,应使用形容词性物主代词their。故填their。
5.On 考查介词。在具体某一天的晚上要用介词on。故填On。
6.eating 考查非谓语动词。介词by后接动词-ing形式作宾语。故填eating。
7.but 考查固定结构。固定结构not only... but also...意为“不但……而且……”。故填but。
8.be given 考查语态。主语they指的是children,它和谓语动词give之间为被动关系。故填be given。
9.activities 考查名词的数。介词besides后接名词作宾语,traditional修饰名词作定语,active的名词是activity,它是可数名词,此处需要变复数。故填activities。
10.which 考查非限制性定语从句。分析句子结构可知,应使用关系代词引导定语从句,指代前面整句话的内容,有逗号隔开的是非限制性定语从句,所以用which。故填which。
