2017版高考英语一轮复习选修8 Module 1-6练习（含答案解析）（9份打包）

Module 3-4
Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
If you have ever tr ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ied a new sport or attempted learning a musical instrument, you are well aware that the hardest part is getting started. Once you figure out the technique, the skills return fairly easily, even if they are not used for long periods of time. Most experts attribute this to “muscle memory”， which means the brain remembers the action and can recall it when needed. Now some researchers from John Hopkins University believe there is another factor that may be as important in recalling previously learned motor skills—the errors made while learning the task.
The study led ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) by Reza Shadmehr, Professor of Biomedical Engineering, involved asking volunteers to play a simple video game: hitting a red target dot with a slightly smaller blue dot, similar to playing virtual games. What the gamers did not know was that as soon as they mastered the game, the researchers reprogrammed it by moving the blue dot slightly off course, thereby forcing them to restart the learning process. What the scientists observed was that though the volunteers did make mistakes every time the game was changed, they got successively faster at mastering it.
Shadmehr believes ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) that this has something to do with the fact that in addition to delivering the task to muscle memory, the brain is also recognizing each wrong move and learning how to correct it. He compares it to having a coach that points out the mistakes and makes suggestions on how to improve.
What surprises the sc ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ientists most is that making mistakes not only trains the brain to perform better at a specific task, but also helps it learn faster from errors, even when the mistakes are made while learning a completely different task. The researchers believe that the brain keeps a general database of errors and draws_on them whenever a new motor skill is being learned, to ensure that mistakes are not repeated. This helps make successive learning processes much faster.
语篇解读：本文介绍了“肌肉记忆”，以及大脑能够从错误中学习。
1．Which example can explain the “muscle memory”？
A．One can finish a task better than others.
B．One can remember a thing for a long time.
C．One can master a game faster than others.
D．A skill that one mastered before can return easily.
答案：D　细节理解题。由第一段第 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )二句对muscle memory的解释可知，人在掌握了一项技能后，即使长时间不用，也能很容易地重新掌握这项技能，故D项符合。
2．What happened when the scientists changed the game
A．The gamers couldn't hit the target.
B．The gamers became very puzzled.
C．The gamers found it easy to play.
D．The gamers made some mistakes.
答案：D　细节理解题。由第二段最后一句可知，游戏被改变之后，游戏者会犯错误。
3．The underlined phr ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ase “draws on” in Paragraph 4 probably means ________.
A．gets rid of B．goes on with
C．makes use of D．gets ready for
答案：C　词义猜测题。上文提到大脑储存(所犯)错误的数据，所以当学习新的技能的时候，它会利用这些数据。
4．What probably made the scientists surprised most
A．Everyone has muscle memory.
B．Errors can help us learn faster.
C．The brain is magical and powerful.
D．Playing video games is beneficial.
答案：B　细节理解题。科学家发现错误不仅能够训练大脑把某项具体任务执行得更好，而且有助于大脑更快地从错误中学习。

(2015·辽宁抚顺六校联考)
I was appreciatin ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )g my family photos on my computer, admiring my two beautiful babies, when I found a disturbing trend: my laptop was open in almost all the pictures. There was my daughter, 8 months old, playing at my feet while I was typing away on the couch. There was me and my son, with the laptop at my side as I held him in my arms.
I'd heard about t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )he Internet addiction before, but always assumed it was something limited to socially challenged guys who played too much World of Warcraft (a computer game). Now it seemed my Internet “habit” is slowly but surely crossing the line. Sometimes I find myself up at midnight, surfing the Web while my family are sleeping. I read news, keep up with friends and write my blog... just for something to do.
It turns out that I'm ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )not the only mama who is addicted to the computer. These moms are contributing to a growing global addiction. There's a movement among psychiatrists (doctors who specialize in mental diseases) to recognize the Internet addiction as an official mental disorder. And a recent Stanford University national survey found that 14 percent of Internet users find it hard to stay away from it for several days at a time; 9 percent try to hide their “unnecessary Internet use” from their loved ones; 8 percent admit they use the Web as a way to escape problems.
You're likely not ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) the kind of addict who doesn't bathe and abuses drugs to help her stay “up” for more online time. You may have noticed, though, that going online has become a necessary part of your life, which, at least, means a load of clothes go unwashed. It may also mean you're missing much time with your baby—something you probably do care about.
语篇解读：本文是一篇议论文。作者通过在日常生活中使用电脑的状况讨论了电脑对生活的影响，尤其是消极影响。
5．From Paragraph 1, we can conclude that ________.
A．the author was busy taking care of her babies
B．the author's job had something to do with computers
C．the author was not good at taking photos of her babies
D．the author looked after her babies while using the computer
答案：D　推理判断题。根据文章第一段内容可以看出作者在照看小孩时也在使用着电脑。故D项正确。
6．The author used to think that the Internet addiction is ________.
A．using the web at midnight
B．keeping up with friends online
C．spending too much time online
D．being addicted to computer games
答案：D　细节理解题。根据第二段第一 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )句“...always assumed it was something limited to socially challenged guys who played too much World of Warcraft (a computer game)．”可知D项正确。
7．In medical terms, the Internet addiction is ________.
A．a personal life habit
B．a way to escape problems
C．an official mental disorder
D．the unnecessary use of the Internet
答案：C　细节理解题。根据第 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )三段第三句“There's a movement among psychiatrists (doctors who specialize in mental diseases) to recognize the Internet addiction as an official mental disorder.”可知C项正确。
8．What does the author want to express in the last but one paragraph
A．Many women still can control their online time.
B．The Internet addiction influences housewives' lives a lot.
C．Going online has become a necessary part of women's lives.
D．Many people don't realize that they are addicted to the Internet.
答案：B　主旨大意题。文章倒数第二段即第三段讲述的是电脑是如何影响到家庭主妇的生活的。故B项正确。
Ⅱ.七选五
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
__1__ She de ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )scribed all the things she had to do—one was to make her bed—from the moment she woke up until she flew out of the door for work.I suggested she experiment by not making her bed for two weeks.She was shocked，probably thinking I'd been raised by wolves in a forest.__2__
Two weeks later she ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )went into my office beaming.She had left her bed unmade for the first time in 42 years and nothing bad had happened.“And you know what？”she said.“I don't dry my dishes anymore，either.”
__3__ One was disc ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )overing that she had choices in her life that she had never seen before.The other was giving herself permission to be less than perfect.This story shows an important principle (原理) about managing time：No one can do it all.Each of us has to make choices and accept trade offs.The problem is，many people choose in ways that put themselves and their health last.They take better care of their houses and cars than they do of themselves.__4__
So what is the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) solution？There's an easy way.Decide what you want in your life，and put that first.On a daily basis，that should include regular meals，enough sleep and time with your family.Exercise，leisure，friendships and hobbies should also be regular aspects of life.__5__ The choice is yours：whatever makes you feel good about yourself and your life.Take a nap.Take a walk.Take time to play the piano.Stop bringing your briefcase home from the office.Stop keeping your house as clean as your mother kept hers .Fill more of your time with want to dos instead of have to dos.
A．This woman had made two major breakthroughs (突破)．
B．Above all，you needn't do anything for yourself regularly.
C．They put everyone else's needs ahead of their own.
D．However，she went along with my idea.
E．Most people do not take time to relax themselves.
F．The point is to do something for yourself every day.
G．A patient came to see me about the stress in her life.
答案：
1．G　文章开头先引主人公，且空后的she即指代G项中的a patient，故选G。
2．D 由空前她的吃惊到下文接受我的建议，之间为转折，故选D。
3．A 由空后的One was...The other was 可知与A项这个女人有了两个大的突破，项对应，故选A。
4．C 由空前“The problem is ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )，many people choose in ways that put themselves and their health last.”可知许多人把自己和自己的健康放到最后，与C项他们把别人的需要放在自己前面，相对应，故选C。
5．F 最后一空为总结的话，且空前内容“ ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )Exercise，leisure，friendships and hobbies should also be regular aspects of life，”可知作者要告诉我们每天为自己做一些事情，故选F。
Ⅲ.语法填空
阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。
(2015·河北衡水中学二模)
We're human, and ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) it's not always easy to get along with everyone all the time. Sometimes we hurt other people's feelings without intending to. Sometimes，we're __1__(deliberate) mean and we feel bad afterward. So we apologize. Apologies are one of the tools we use to build good friendships and relationships.__2__ you say“I'm sorry” (and really mean it), it's because you probably feel bad that something you did or said hurt the other person. Saying you're sorry is more than just words. You're also saying that you respect the other person __3__ you care about his or her feelings. Apologizing shows you have empathy.
After apologi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )zing，you might feel a little __4__(good)．The other person probably will, too. When you apologize in a caring way, you can feel good because you are trying to make things right again.
Sometimes a heartfe ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )lt“I'm sorry” __5__(fix) everything right away. Other times，it might take __6__ while for someone to get past feeling upset. You may need to give the other person some time. Even after you say you're sorry, you might still feel bad about what you said or did—but you can feel good about apologizing, fixing the mistake, or making up your __7__ to do better. When someone apologizes to you，you may welcome it and be ready to forgive __8__ happened and move on. Or you might not feel like being friendly again right away. If a person keeps hurting you and __9__ (apologize)without making an effort to change，you might not want to hang about __10__ that person any more.
1．______　2.______　3.______　4.______　5.______
6．______　7.______　8.______　9.______　10.______
语篇解读：本文为议论文，题材为人际关系。向他人道歉是我们与他人建立友好关系的重要方式。
1．deliberately　考查副词。由设空前的we're及设空后的mean可知设空处填副词形式。
2．When　考查连词。此处表示“当你向对方说‘对不起’的时候”，故用when引导时间状语从句。
3．and　考查并列连词。you res ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )pect the other person与you care about his or her feelings为并列关系，故用and连接。
4．better　考查比较级。这里指道歉之后你可能会感觉好一些。a little修饰比较级。
5．fixes　考查主谓一致。主语a heartfelt“I'm sorry”为单数概念，故谓语动词用fixes。
6．a　考查冠词。take a while意为“需要一段时间”。
7．mind　考查固定搭配。make up one's mind to do sth.“下决心做某事”。
8．whatever　考查宾语从句。forgive后缺宾语，分析句子结构可知应用whatever引导宾语从句。
9．apologizing　考查非谓语动词。设空处与hurting并列，故用apologizing。
10．with　考查介词。hang about with sb.意为“和某人长时间待在一起”。
Ⅳ.短文改错

修改：在错的词下画一横线，并在该词下面写出修改后的词。
注意：1.每处错误及其修改均仅限一词；
2．只允许修改10处，多者(从第11处起)不计分。

Ⅲ.阅读理解
Many of us still te ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nd to think that emotions can affect reasonablethought，and sometimes land us in trouble.But in recent years psychologists have taken quite a different view.Keith Oatley，Professor of Psychology at Glasgow University，is involved in the research which shows the fundamental importance of emotions.
He believes we_are_v ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ery_ambivalent_about_them：we think of our emotions as being unreasonable，but we also consider them as essential to being human.For example，Mr Spock，a character in the television series Star Trek，is super intelligent and he has no emotions at all.However，he is never made captain of the spaceship.Maybe，this is because Mr Spock is not the kind of person you can share your feelings with—a person who shows his emotions.
As Professor Oat ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ley points out，our emotions have very important functions，for example，fear.If we cross the road and a car approaches，we usually stop moving or step back.We stop what we are doing，check what we have done and pay very careful attention to the environment.The emotion of fear makes us take this small series of actions which，on average，help preserve our safety.

Ⅱ.阅读理解

“I’ve chang ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ed my mind.I wanted to have a telescope，but now I want my dad back.” Lucien Lawrence’s letter to his father for Christmas written after his father had been knifed to death outside his school gate，must have touched everyone’s heart.Lucien went on to say that without his father he couldn’t see the stars in the sky.When those whom we love depart from us，we cannot see the stars for a while.
But Lucien，t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )he stars are still there，and one day，when you are older and your tears have gone，you will see them again.And，in a strange way，I expect that you will find your father there，too，in your mind and heart.I find that my parents，who died years ago，still figure in many of my dreams and that I think of them perhaps more than I ever did when they were alive.I still live to please them and I’m still surprised by their reactions.I remember that when I became a professor，I was so proud，or rather so pleased with myself that I couldn’t wait to cable my parents.The reply was a long time in coming，but when it did，all my mother said was “I hope this means that now you will have more time for the children！” I haven’t forgotten.The values of my parents still live on.
It makes me pause and ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )think about how I will live on in the hearts and minds of my children and of those for whom I care.Would I have been as ready as Philip Lawrence have been to face the aggressors，and to lay down my life for those in my care？How many people would want me back for Christmas？It’s a serious thought，one to give me pause.
I pray silently，som ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )etimes，in the dead of night，that ancient cry of a poet “Deliver my soul from the sword，and my darling from the power of the dog.” Yet I know the death comes to us all，and sometimes comes suddenly.We must therefore plan to live forever，but live as if we will die tomorrow.We live on，I’m sure，in the lives of those we love，and therefore we ought to have a care for what they will remember and what they will treasure.If more parents knew this in their hearts to be true，there might be fewer knives on our streets today.

A
Walk down the dri ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nks section at the supermarket.Look in the drink cooler in your local convenience store.A new drink is taking up more and more space on the shelves，and that drink is water.Bottled water sales in the US rose to 1.7 billion gallons in 2010 for plastic bottles alone，compared to total sales of only 700 million gallons in 1990.Whereas bottled water was once associated only with the rich and the privileged (特权阶层)，it is now regularly drunk by people at all income levels despite the fact that the price of bottled water can be between 240 and 10,000 times higher per gallon than tap water.What accounts for this surprising increase in demand
Traditionally，peo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ple have drunk bottled water for health reasons.The practice of “taking the waters” originated with the Romans，who believed that a person developed a healthy mind by building a healthy body.Across Europe，drinking or bathing in mineral water has been associated with the power to cure various diseases.Health spas at Evian in France and Pellegrino in Italy began bottling water so that their consumers could continue their treatments at home.The consumers in the 21st century are also concerned about health.However，in America，where the habit of drinking bottled water is relatively new，the concern is often more related to the purity or sterilization (消毒) of the water than to its mineral contents.Americans are often worried about the effects of the chemical pollution and other contaminants on the water supply.Many Americans view bottled water as a safe alternative to tap water.
Further reasons for ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )drinking bottled water are its usefulness as an aid to digestion，as a complement to a good meal in a restaurant，and for taste.City tap water is often treated with chlorine (氯) to guard against harmful micro organisms.Chlorine，as well as metals from pipes and tanks used to distribute and store tap water，can leave behind an unpleasant taste.
1．Which of the following statements is true
A．Bottled water was once drunk both by the rich and the poor.
B．Bottled water sales have risen，for it’s cheaper than tap water.
C．Europeans believed in the power of treatment of mineral water.
D．Americans have had the habit of drinking bottled water for long.
2．People prefer bottled water because________.
A．it does good to their health
B．it has chlorine to make it taste good
C．it contains no mineral pollution at all
D．it’s a practice originated with the Romans
3．The underlined word “contaminants” most probably means________.
A．pollutants B．micro organisms
C．chemicals D．minerals
4．Which of the following could be the best title for the passage
A．How Bottled Water Originated
B．“Taking the Waters” Has Been Practiced for Long
C．What’s the Safe Alternative to Tap Water

For anyone who i ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s determined to be a fashion designer，it is not enough to have succeeded in college.The real test is whether they can survive，and become established during their early 20s，making a name for themselves in the real world where business skills can be as important as talent and creativity.
Fashion is a h ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ard business.There is a continuous amount of stress because work is at a constant and extremely fast speed to prepare for the next season’s collections.It is extremely competitive and there is the constant need to make attractive advertisements of the latest fashion in newspapers and magazines.It also requires continual freshness because the appetite for new ideas is hard to satisfy.“We try to warn people before they come to us about how tough it is.” says Lydia Kemeny，Head of Fashion at St.Martin’s School of Art in London.“And we point out that drive and determination are absolutely necessary.”
This may seem ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )far removed from the popular opinions of fashionable young people spending their time designing pretty dresses.That may well be what they do in their first year of study but a good college won’t be slow in introducing students to commercial realities，“We don’t walk our foot on the blossoming flower of creativity but in the second year we start introducing the restrictions of price，producing ability，marketing and so on.”
Almost all fashi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )on design is done to a brief.It is not a form of self expression as such，although there is certainly room for imagination and creativity.Most young designers are going to end up as employees of a producer or a fashion house and they still need to be able to work within the characteristic style of their employer.Even those students who are most modern in their own taste of clothes may need to adapt to produce designs which are right for the mainstream of the market.They also have to be able to work at both the expensive and the cheap end of the market and the challenge to produce good design inexpensively may well be demanding.
5．Which of the following is mainly discussed in the passage
A．Talent in fashion.
B．Good marks at college.
C．Ability to create new designs.
D．Business skills in fashion industry.
6．What can we learn from the second paragraph
A．Fashion designers are highly motivated and really detemined.
B．Good preparations for the next season can reduce stress.
C．Consumers’ appetite for new ideas keeps changing.
D．Advertisement business is very competitive.
7．What does the underlined word “This” in Paragraph 3 refer to
A．Lydia Kemeny’s opinion.
B．The competitive business world.
C．The warning to the young designers.
D．The real situation in fashion industry.
8．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage
A．St.Martin’s School o ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )f Art encourages the new students to design dresses they like.
B．St.Martin’s S ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )chool of Art requires students to develop their creativity in their designing.
C．St.Martin’ ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s School of Art demands students to make pretty dresses for companies.
D．St.Martin’ ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s School of Art focuses on teaching students commercial realities.
【语篇解读】　成为时尚设计师并不是件容易的事。仅仅在大学校园里获取学业的成功是不够的，时尚在不断变化，商业技巧和天赋、创造性同样重要。
5．D　[主旨大意题。第一段是文章的主题段，通读全文可知整篇文章介绍的是在时尚业应该掌握怎样的商业技巧才能立足。]
6．C　[细节理解题。从第二段中的“It a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )lso requires continual freshness because the appetite for new ideas is hard to satisfy.”可知消费者对时尚的追求是不断变化的。]

Electric cars are d ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )irty. In fact, not only are they dirty, they might even be more dirty than their gasoline powered cousins.
People in California l ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ove to talk about “zero emissions (排放) vehicles”， but people in California seem to be_clueless about where electricity comes from. Power plants mostly use fire to make it. Aside from the few folks who have their roofs covered with solar ceils, we get our electricity from generators (发电机). Generators are fueled by something—usually coal, oil, and also by heat generated in nuclear power plants. There are a few wind farms and geothermal (地热的) plants as well, but by far we get electricity mainly by burning something.
In other words, ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) those “zero emissions” cars are likely coal burning cars. It's just because the coal is burned somewhere else, so it looks clean. It is not. It's as if the California greens are covering their eyes—“If I can't see it, it's not happening.” Gasoline is an unbelievably efficient way to power a vehicle; a gallon of gas has a lot of energy in it. But when you take that gas [or another fuel] and first use it to make electricity, you waste a nice part of that energy, mostly in the form of wasted heat—at the generator, through the transmission lines, etc.
A gallon of gas m ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ay propel your car 25 miles. But the electricity you get from that gallon of gas won't get you nearly as far—so electric cars burn more fuel than gas powered ones. If our electricity came mostly from geothermal, or hydro, or solar, or wind, then an electric car truly would be clean. But for political, technical, and economic reasons, we don't use much of those energy sources.
In addition, e ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )lectric cars' batteries which are poisonous for a long time will eventually end up in a landfill (垃圾) and finally, when cars are the polluters, the pollution is spread across all the roads. When it's a power plant, though, all the junk is in one place. Nature is very good at cleaning up when things are not too concentrated, but it takes a lot longer when all the garbage is in one spot.
语篇解读：本文是一篇议论文。文章阐述了电能汽车并不环保。
1．What is the main idea of the passage
A．Electric cars are not clean at all.
B．Electric cars are better than gasoline powered ones.
C．People have doubts about electric cars' batteries.
D．Gasoline is an effective way to power a vehicle.
答案：A　主旨大意题。第一段指明了本文主旨“电能汽车并不清洁”，随后的几段都是通过各种证据来证明这一论点的。故选A项。
2．The underlined words “be clueless” mean ________.
A．know nothing 　　 B．have confidence
C．feel excited 　　 D．be pleased
答案：A　词义猜测题。句意为：加利福尼亚州的人们喜欢谈论“零排放车辆”，但是他们好像并不清楚电能的来源。故选A项。
3．The electricity we g ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )et from a gallon of gas may make our car run ________.
A．not less than 25 miles 　　 B．as far as 50 miles
C．as far as 25 miles 　　 D．not more than 25 miles
答案：D　推理判断题。根据第四段第一、二句 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )“A gallon of gas may propel your car 25 miles. But the electricity you get from that gallon of gas won't get you nearly as far...”可知，同样用一加仑的汽油，电能汽车所行驶的路程比不上燃油汽车行驶的路程远，即不超过25英里。故选D项。
4．According to the passage, electric cars ________.
A．are more environmentally friendly
B．burn more fuel than gas powered ones
C．are very good at cleaning up
D．are poisonous for a long time
答案：B　细节理解题。根据第四段第二句中的“ ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )...so electric cars burn more fuel than gas powered ones.”可知，电能汽车比燃油汽车消耗更多的能源。故选B项。

iPads vs. Textbooks
What if you cou ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ld have your whole backpack at the touch of your fingertips In the first month of the Apple iPads release, 25million were sold! People all over the world use iPads for all sorts of different things, but one of their finest qualities is the ability to be a textbook. __1__
To begin with, iPad ar ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e less expensive. Textbooks become outdated and schools have to buy new books, but with an iPad schools can update them for free. __2__ Schools don't have to spend $500 every year for iPads because they last a while and can be updated.
__3__ Student ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s usually have multiple classes, which results in multiple textbooks. Heavy backpacks filled with books can cause back problem. A solution to that is an iPad, which only weighs 1.33 pounds and can hold all of a student's textbooks.
Third, school ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s should get rid of their textbooks and get iPads because they have more capabilities. Some might think all of the apps are distracting, but the apps actually make iPads more efficient. __4__ Textbooks cannot do those tasks, but iPads can easily do them with just a tap of the fingertip.Lastly, iPads are a better choice for schools instead of textbooks because these devices allow students to access their learning anywhere at any time. __5__ With iPads, they find it easier to get their homework done.
In conclusion, sch ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ools should get rid of their clumsy textbooks and switch to iPads. iPads have allowed this generation to have their entire backpack in the palm of their hands.
A．These tablets are perfect for busy students.
B．Second, iPads cost less and are more popular.
C．Therefore, they can use the saved money for other programs.
D．iPads have already ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) replaced textbooks in over 600 American counties.
E．Moreover, in hi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )gh school, textbooks have an average of 4.8 pounds each.
F．Schools have ev ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ery reason to do away with their school books and switch to iPads.
G．iPads absorb ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) the need to buy calculators, dictionaries, and other items that are found within the device.
语篇解读：本文主要以电子产品ipad为话题，对比传统教科书，说明了学校应该用ipad替代textbooks的原因。
1．F　本段为主题段，总结下文的 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )五段可知此句是本文的主题句；do away with their school books 表示抛弃传统教科书；switch to ipads 表示要用iPad，可知答案选F。
2．C　根据前句说iPad的优点是可以免费更新；此句承接上句，选项C中用saved money，可知答案选C。
3．E　此题容易错选成B; 但是，根据本段的主题是说iPad的重量轻，便于携带。故答案选E。
4．G　根据前句的关键词apps，可 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )以替换选项中的calculators ，dictionaries, and other items。可知答案选G。
5．A　根据前后句逻辑关系，可知前后句表示并列；是说让学习变得更容易。由此可知答案选A。

Many people belie ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ve that teaching children music makes them smarter, better able to learn new things. But the organizers of a new study say there's no scientific evidence that early musical training affects the intelligence of young people.
An estimated 80 p ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ercent of American adults think music lessons improve children's ability to learn or their performance in school. They, say that the satisfaction for learning to play a new song helps a child express creativity.
Researchers at H ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )arvard University, however, have found that there's one thing musical training does not do. They say it does not make children more intelligent. Samuel Mehr is a graduate student at Harvard's School of Education. He said it is wrong to think that learning to play a musical instrument improves a child's intellectual development. He says the evidence comes from studies that measured the mental ability of two groups of 4 year olds and their parents. One group attended music class, the other went to a class that places importance on the visual arts—arts that can be seen.
“The evidence there ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) is ‘no’. We found no evidence for any advantage on any of these tests for the kids participating in these music classes，” said Mehr. Samuel Mehr says researchers have carried out many studies in an effort to learn whether musical training can make children smarter. He says the results have been mixed. He says only one study seems to show a small percentage increase in IQ, intellectual scores among students after one year of music lessons. He does not believe that IQ is a good measure of child's intelligence. He says researchers in his study compared how well children in the musical training group did on mental processing tasks or projects, then the results were compared to those of children who did not take lessons. There was no evidence that the musical training group did much better on the mental tasks than the other group.
The researchers con ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )firmed the results with a larger group of children and their parents. Mr. Mehr says music lessons may not offer children a fast easy way to gain entry to the best schools later in their life. But he says the training is still important for cultural reasons. In his words, “We teach music because music is important for us.”
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。哈佛大学最近的一项研究表明，没有证据证明接受了音乐教育的孩子比没有接受音乐教育的孩子的智商更高。
1.According to the new study, musical training ________.
A．makes children smarter
B．helps a child express creativity
C．does not make children more intelligent
D．improve children's ability to learn in school
答案：C　推理判断题。根据文章 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )第一段第二句“But the organizers of a new study say there's no scientific evidence that early musical training affects the intelligence of young people.”可推断，上过音乐培训课的孩子并不会比没上过音乐培训课的孩子更聪明。故选C项。
2．Samuel Mehr may agree that ________.
A．the children who ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) attended music class are smarter than those who attended arts class
B．IQ is a good measure of a child's intelligence
C．we needn't to teach children music
D．music training is still important for cultural reasons
答案：D　细节理解题。由最后一段的最后两句“ ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )But he says the training is still important for cultural reasons. In his words, ‘We teach music because music is important for us.’”可知，他认为从文化方面说，音乐还是很重要的。故选D项。
3．In order to confirm his view, Samuel Mehr ________.
A．conducted more than one research
B．interviewed many American adults
C．taught two groups of 4 year olds music and arts
D．offered children a fast way to be admitted to the best schools
答案：A　细节理解题。由第四段第 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )三句“Samuel Mehr says researchers have carried out many studies in an effort to learn whether musical training can make children smarter.”可知，塞缪尔·梅尔进行了不止一项研究去论证音乐对孩子早期智力开发的真实作用。故选A项。
4．The article may be taken from a report about________.
A．health B．education
C．culture D．economy
答案：B　推理判断题。全 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )文介绍了哈佛大学研究人员做的一项关于音乐开发小孩智力真假与否的研究，因此可以推断，本文应该出自与教育有关的报道。故选B项。

1．A.shaped B．promoted
C．trained D．blessed
答案：A　本空考查动词基本含义的辨析。 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )A.shaped“弄成……的形状，塑造”；B.promoted“促进”；C.trained“训练”；D.blessed“赐福”。根据上下文意思，他把我塑造成了现在的我，所以选项比较来看，只能选shape“塑造”。故选A。
2．A.like B．about
C．from D．worth
答案：D　本空考查介词基 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )本含义的辨析。A.like“像……一样”；B.about“关于”；C.from“来自”； D．worth“值得”。本空较难，分清句子成分是关键。“that anything __2__ having takes a lot of hard work”与前面的about短语共同做teach的宾语，此从句中 “anything having”做takes的主语，句意为“任何值得拥有的东西都要花费一番努力”，这里选用值得“worth doing”更好。故选D。
3．A.directed B．taught
C．encouraged D．improved
答案：B　本空考查动词基本含义的辨析。A.d ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )irected“指导”；B.taught“教”；C.encouraged“鼓励”；D.improved“提高，改善”。根据文章第一段，Uncle Bruce一直在教我做人，这里是说“他所教给我最重要的事情是如何思考”，根据前文暗示，选用taught。故选B。
4．A.so that B．even if
C．as if D．now that
答案：B　本空考查连词基本含义的辨析。 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )A.so that“以致于”；B.even if“即使”；C.as if“好像”；D.now that“既然”。结合上下文，选项中只有“即使”更符合文意即：即使它没什么关系。故选B。
5．A.wants B．supports
C．promises D．advises
答案：C　本空考查动词基本含 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )义的辨析。A.wants“想要”；B.supports“支持”；C.promises“许诺”；D.advises“建议”。根据下一句暗示，此句理解为“言出必行”，所以选项中“promise，承诺”更合适。故选C。
6．A.matter B．insist
C．succeed D．happen
答案：D　本空考查动词基本含义的辨析。 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )A.matter“重要”；B.insist“要求”；C.succeed“成功”；D.happen“发生，碰巧”。本空较难，关键看清代词。结合文章上下文，matter是“事关紧要”，insist是“坚持要求或坚持认为”的意思，succeed是“成功”，happen是“发生”的意思，此空前面it指代uncle承诺过的事，结合前文“言出必行”，所以根据文章happen更合适。本空易选错insist，如果选insist，需要将前面的it改为he。故选D。
7．A.sticks to B．points at
C．listens to D．comes at
答案：C　本空考查动词短语基 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )本含义的辨析。A.sticks to“坚持”；B.points at“指着”；C．listens to“听”；D.comes at“袭击”。本空较难，根据文章基调，作者在全文透露出Uncle Bruce在各个方面都很好，对自己的影响也很大，此句中又有also，可以推测本句也是在夸uncle，四个选项中只有“listen to倾听”是褒义，故选C。
8．A.experiences B．diseases
C．drills D．adaptations
答案：A　本空考查名词基本含义 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )的辨析。A.experiences“经历”；B.diseases“疾病”；C.drills“训练”；D.adaptations“改编”。该句讲的是经历，所以experiences是更恰当。故选A。
9．A.materially B．negatively
C．barely D．positively
答案：B　本空考查副词基 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )本含义的辨析。A.materially“实质地”；B.negatively“否定地”；C.barely“仅仅”；D.positively“积极地”。根据下文的连词but转折后，说明下句的意思相反，所以选negatively“消极地”。故选B。
10．A.tendencies B．statistics
C．references D．misfortunes
答案：D　本空考查名词基本含义的辨析 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )。A.tendencies“脆弱”；B.statistics“数据”；C.references“参考”；D.misfortunes“霉运”。前文的terrible experiences和alcohol and drug related都暗示了，这是uncle所遇到的不幸的故事，所以选择D。
11．A.sink B．test
C．harm D．exploit
答案：C　本空考查名词基本含义的辨析。A. ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )sink“下沉”；B.test“测试”；C．harm“伤害”；D.exploit“开发，利用”。文章中“我对做任何伤害我及我的朋友的事情不感兴趣”所以选“harm伤害”。故选C。
12．A.make B．take
C．bring D．seize
答案：A　本空考查动词基本含义 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )的辨析。A.make“制造”；B.take“带走”；C．bring“带来”；D.seize“抓住”。根据文章句意即上下文，“他是唯一一个相信我能够成功到达West Point的人”且make it 可以表示“成功做成某事”。故选A。

答案：D　本空考查名词基本含义的辨析。A. ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )management“管理”；B.access“接近”；C.patent“专利发明人”；D.power“权力，力量”。结合上下文及常用表达“在他能力范围之内”所以选择power“力量”更合适 。故选D。
14．A.everybody B．everything
C．nobody D．nothing
答案：B　本空考查不定代词基本含 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )义的辨析。A.everybody“每个人”； B．everything“每件事情”；C．nobody“没有人”； D．nothing“什么也没有”。本空较难，本句译为“他是我想成为的一切(我想成为跟他一样的人)”，侧重我想成为uncle那样具有一切良好品质的人，而不是我成为别人，所以选B而非A。故选B。
15．A.secure B．shaky
C．proper D．messy
答案：A　本空考查形容词 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )基本含义的辨析。A.secure“有保障的”；B.shaky“晃动的”；C.proper“恰当的”；D.messy“混乱的”。根据下文“他回报社区”因此判断他经济上是有保障的，所以选A。

18．A.or B．either
C．nor D．so
答案：C　本空考查连词基本含义的辨析。A. ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )or“或者”； B．either“或者”；C.nor“也不”；D.so“因此，所以”。上文中“never”表否定，因此下文应用“nor”来搭配使用。故选C。
19．A.saying B．proving
C．expressing D．demanding
答案：A　本空考查动词基本含义 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )的辨析。A.saying“说”；B.proving“证明”；C.expressing“表达”； D．demanding“要求”。根据文意“我不是说他很完美”。故选A。

__1__The Frenc ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )h take great pride in their language，so anyone who does not speak it may run the risk of being disrespected by his French colleagues or business partners.Also，another reason why learning French is important is that it is a great way to show every possible French business partner that you care and respect their country’s culture and language.

Do not begin e ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ating until the host says “bon appetit”．Pass dishes to the left，keep wrists above the table and try to eat everything on the plate.__5__This may suggest that you find the food tasteless.If eating in a restaurant，the person who invites always pays.
A．The French draw information about people based on their appearance.
B．This is a time for relationship building.
C．Remember to be as polite as possible.
D．Language shoul ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d be the focus of anyone planning to do business in France.

Let’s face it.No one d ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rinks diet sodas for the taste.People drink diet sodas in the hope that it will help them lose weight or at least keep them from gaining it.Yet it seems to have exactly the opposite effect，according to a new study.
Researchers from the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )University of Texas said those who drank two or more diet sodas a day had waist size increases that were six times greater than those who didn’t drink diet sodas.“What we saw was that the more diet sodas a person drank，the more weight they were likely to gain，” said Sharon Fowler.
The study was based o ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )n data from 474 participants in a large，ongoing research project，where the participants were followed for nearly 10 years.
While the findings are surprising，they also offer some explanations.
Nutrition exper ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t，Melanie Rogers，who works with overweight patients in New York，has found that when patients are switched from regular to diet sodas，they don’t lose weight at all.“We weren’t seeing weight loss necessarily，and that was confusing to us，” said Rogers.
So why would diet sod ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )a cause weight gain？No one knows for sure yet，but it could be that people think they can eat more if they drink diet sodas，and so over compensate for the missing calories.
A related study found some sweeteners (甜味剂) raised blood sugar levels in some mice.“Data from this and other potential studies suggest that the promotion of diet sodas and artificial sweeteners may be risky，” said Helen P．Hazuda，professor at the University of Texas’s school of medicine.“They may be free of calories，but not of consequences.”
1．People drink diet sodas to________.
A．enjoy its taste B．stay in fashion
C．achieve weight loss D．gain more energy
2．The new study suggests that drinking diet sodas________.
A．causes people to become heavier
B．helps people to be healthier
C．makes people much thinner
D．offers people more calories
3．We can learn from the passage that________.
A．regular sodas make people lose more weight
B．diet soda drinkers tend to eat more food
C．diet sodas do help reduee calories
D．most blood diseases come from diet sodas
4．The underlined ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) word “They” in the last paragraph probably refers to “________”．
A．sweeteners
B．diet sodas and artificial sweeteners
C．sodas
D．diet soda drinkers and sweetener takers

Public bookshelves ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )are appearing across Germany on street corners，city squares and in suburban supermarkets.In these free for all libraries，people can grab whatever they want to read，and leave behind anything they want for others.There’s no need to register，no due date，and you can take or give as many as you want.“This project is aimed at everyone who likes to read.It is open for everybody，” Michael Aubermann，one of the organizers of the free book exchange said.
The western city’s lat ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )est public shelf was put up next to Bayenturm.It is the fourth free shelf that Aubermann’s group，the Cologne Citizen’s Foundation，has placed outside.“We set up our other outdoor shelves last year and it’s been working really well，” said Aubermann.The public bookshelves，which are usually financed by donations and cared for by local volunteer groups，have appeared independently of each other in many cities，suburbs and villages.Each shelf holds around 200 books and it takes about six weeks for a complete turnover，with all the old titles replaced by new ones.
Even commercial b ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ook stores and online book sellers seem to support the idea of free book exchanges.“We see this project rather as a sales promotion than as competition，” said Elmar Muether.“If books are present everywhere，it helps our business，too.”
So far，the Col ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ogne book group has had few problems with damage or other problems.Aubermann said，“Propaganda (宣传) is the only kind of literature we do not allow here.”
At another boo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )kshelf in the Bayenthal neighborhood，the lower shelves are reserved for children’s literature only.“It is important that we make it easy for everyone to participate in this ‘reading culture on the street’—from old readers to kids to immigrants，” Aubermann said.
While most of the shel ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ves have so far been put up in upscale_neighborhoods，Aubermann and the 20 volunteers who help look after the project are planning to put up future shelves in poor neighborhoods，where citizens often don’t have as much access to literature.

A．People can take the books and leave their books at will.

【语篇解读】　在德国的城市街角、广场和郊区 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )超市，一排排公共书架出现在人们的视野中。你可以随意取阅或捐赠图书。这项免费换书活动得到了人们的支持。
1．A　[细节理解题。根据第一 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )段中的“people can grab whatever they want to read，and leave behind anything they want for others.There’s no need to register，no due date，and you can take or give as many as you want.”可知，人们可以随意取阅或捐赠图书，不需要登记，也没有规定的还书时间。]
2．B　[细节理解题。由第二段中的“We s ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )et up our other outdoor shelves last year and it’s been working really well”可知，公共书架自诞生以来运行良好。根据第二段第四句话可知A项错误，C、D两项文中没有信息支持。]
3．D　[词义猜测题。根据后面的“poor ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )neighborhoods”的对比可知，upscale neighborhoods指的是高档社区。]
4．C　[标题概括题。综合本文内容可知，C项“公共书架遍布德国”最适合作为本文的标题。]
