2017人教版高考英语一轮练习及答案—必修4Unit 2
新题型—短文语法填空
(由2013·黄山市二模改编)
When a customer finds that a purchased item is faulty or in some other way does not live up to the producer's claim for it, the first step is to give the warranty，or any other records which might help, to the store of purchase. This action will often produce results. However, if not, there are various means to gain satisfaction.
A simple and common method is to complain directly to the store manager. In general, the “higher up” the consumer takes their complaint, the faster they can expect a settlement. In such a case, it is usually settled in the consumer's favor, assuming they have a just claim.
Consumers should complain in person whenever possible, but if they cannot get to the store, it is acceptable to phone or write the complaint in a letter.
Complaining is usually most effective when done politely but firmly, and especially when the consumer can demonstrate the problem with the item. If this cannot be done, the consumer will succeed best by presenting specific information as to what is wrong, rather than by making general statements. For example, “The left speaker does not work at all and the sound is unclear” is better than “This stereo does not work.”
The store manager may advise the consumer to write to the producer. If so, the consumer should state the complaint as politely and firmly as possible.
If a polite complaint does not achieve the desired result, the consumer can go a step further. They can threaten to take the seller to court or report the seller to an organization responsible for protecting consumers' rights.

三、阅读理解
A
阅读下列短文, 从给的四个选项 (A、B、C和D) 中, 选出最佳选项。
Today, ultrasonic(超声的) waves are being put to work in laboratories and factories. If an ultrasound generator is placed in a liquid, the waves move the liquid back and forth hundreds of thousands of times each second. This causes materials to mix quickly or to dissolve(使分解，使溶解) in liquids. Paint manufacturers(制造商) use ultrasound to do a better job of blending colors. The companies that make film for your camera find that mixing chemicals by the use of sound waves will produce a more sensitive film.
The new lightweight(轻量的) type of washing machine uses ultrasonic waves to get clothes clean. Its special ultrasound generator is put into a pail of soapy water containing the soiled clothes. The sound waves drive the soapy water back and forth through the cloth so fast that everything is soon clean. There is also a new kind of dishwasher that works in much the same way.
Ultrasonic waves can shake a liquid so fast that tiny holes form all through it. The liquid is actually torn apart by this action. Almost as soon as these holes are made, they fall together again. The result is a powerful pounding action. In the dairy industry this is used for the double purpose of making homogenized(使均匀，使匀质) milk and sterilizing(使无菌) it at the same time. If you look at some raw milk with a microscope, you find that it is made up of little drops of butter fat floating around in a watery liquid. In order to make milk easier to digest, these fat droplets(微粒) may be broken up by forcing the milk through very small openings. The result is called homogenized milk. When the ultrasonic method is used, the sound waves not only break up the droplets but also kill the germs in the milk by pounding them to pieces. (from www.nmet168.com)
1. Why does a paint manufacturer use ultrasound to do a better job of blending colors?
A. Because it is cheap to use ultrasound to blend colors.
B. Because the waves move the liquid so quickly that it can make materials mix quickly or dissolve in liquids.
C. Because they can mix chemicals by the use of sound waves.
D. Because the waves can clean the paint.
2. What properties does ultrasound wave have?
A. Homogenizes and sterilizes the milk. B. Mix materials and break droplets.
C. Kill germs and sterilize milk. D. Move liquids quickly.
3. What exists in the raw milk?
A. Little drops of butter fat. B. Small holes.
C. Fat droplets and germs. D. Chemicals.
4. Where is ultrasound wave not used?
A. In the paint manufacture. B. In the shop mixing bread flour.
C. In the film-making company. D. In the dairy industry.
1. B 事实细节题。根据其上句 This causes materials to mix quickly or to dissolve(使分解，使溶解) in liquids 可知，答案选 B。
2. D 事实细节题。根据文章最后一段的第 1 句 Ultrasonic waves can shake a liquid so fast that tiny holes form all through it可知，答案选 D。
3. C 事实细节题。根据文章最后一段的内容，特别是最后一句 When the ultrasonic method is used, the sound waves not only break up the droplets but also kill the germs in the milk by pounding them to pieces 可知，答案选 C
4. B 推理判断题。根据文章第 1 段最后提到的 Paint manufacturers(制造商)…以及The companies that make film… 两句排除选项 A、C，根据第 3 段第 5 句的 In the dairy industry this is used for… 排除选项 D，从而得出答案是 B。
B
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
The way we do things round here
Some years ago，I was hired by an American bank. I received a letter from the head of the Personnel Department that started，“Dear John，I am quite pleased that you have decided to join us.” That “quite” saddened me. I thought he was saying “we're kind of pleased you decided to join us although I wish we had hired someone else.”Then I discovered that in American English “quite” sometimes means “very”， while in British English it means “fairly”．
So the first lesson about working in other countries is to learn the language and by that I don't just mean the words people speak. It is body language，dress，manners, ideas and so on. The way people do things highlights many of the differences we see between cultures (文化)．
Some of these differences may be only on the surface—dress，food and hours of work—while others may be deeper and take longer to deal with. Mostly, it is just a question of getting used to the differences and accepting them, like the climate (气候)，while getting on with business.
Some of the differences may be an improvement. People are more polite；the service is better；you ask for something to be done and it happens without having to ask again. However，other differences can be troubling, like punctuality (准时). If you invite people to a party at 7 o'clock your guests will consider it polite to turn up exactly on time in Germany, five minutes early in the American Midwest，an hour early in Japan, 15 minutes afterwards in the UK, up to an hour afterwards in Italy and some time in the evening in Greece. I prefer not to use the word “late” because there is nothing wrong with the times people arrive. It is simply the accepted thing to do in their own country.
本文介绍了作者所感受到的文化差异。
1. The author was unhappy as mentioned in Paragraph 1 because he thought ________.
A. the American bank didn't think much of him
B. the American bank might hire another person
C. it's difficult to get used to American culture
D. it's easy to misunderstand Americans
答案：A。推理判断题。由第一段中“That “quite” saddened me”．可以推断出作者认为这家美国银行不重视他。
2．The underlined word “highlights” in Paragraph 2 probably means ________.
A. encourages B. helps to narrow
C. increases D. draws attention to
答案：D。词义猜测题。由下文可知人们做事情的方式引起了作者对文化差异的关注。
3．According to the author，what should we do with most cultural differences?
A. Ask the native people for help. B. Understand and accept them.
C. Do things in our own way. D. Do in-depth research.
答案：B。细节理解题。由第三段最后一句可知我们要习惯文化差异并接受存在的文化差异。
4．When invited to a party the people who are usually punctual are________.
A. Italians B. Germans
C. Greeks D. the British
答案：B。细节理解题。由最后一段“If you invite people...on time in Germany...”可知B项正确。
四、七选五
【北京市东城区2014高考英语调研检测题】
（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）
根据短文内容，从短文后的七个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。
Teen peer pressure
Teen peer pressure is the influence a teen's social group has on him or her. As adolescents enter the teen years, they usually begin to focus more on their peers or friends. 71 Peers influence most aspects of a teen's life, including how teens dress, what music they listen to, and what kind of activities they are involved in.
72 Good friends can encourage teens to do well in school, get involved in positive activities, volunteer, eat healthy foods, and avoid drugs, alcohol, and other risky activities. Friends also help teens learn good social skills and better ways to communicate and work out problems. 73
Negative peer pressure is when teens feel pressured to do something they know is wrong, such as smoking, drinking, stealing, or cutting class. 74 This is because they want to be liked or fit in, they are afraid of being made fun of, or they want to try something other teens are doing.
It is important for teens to learn how to deal with peer pressure. There are a lot of things a teen can do to handle it. 75 Good friends use positive peer pressure to help you be your best self.? Also you need to think about the consequences of your decisions and actions, such as if an activity might harm your health or get you into trouble.? Or you can talk to your parents or a trusted adult about the kinds of peer pressure you face and listen to their advice.?Remember that if just one teen stands up against negative peer pressure, usually others will join him or her, and learning to handle peer pressure gives teens more confidence.
Peer pressure is not always bad.
They always give teens good advice.
Teens may give in to negative peer pressure.
Why it is important to deal with negative peer pressure?
First of all, teens need to recognize negative peer pressure.
For example, you can choose good friends who share your values.
The desire to fit in with peers can be a very strong influence on teens.

Teen peer pressure
Teen peer pressure is the influence a teen's social group has on him or her. As adolescents enter the teen years, they usually begin to focus more on their peers or friends. 71 Peers influence most aspects of a teen's life, including how teens dress, what music they listen to, and what kind of activities they are involved in.
72 Good friends can encourage teens to do well in school, get involved in positive activities, volunteer, eat healthy foods, and avoid drugs, alcohol, and other risky activities. Friends also help teens learn good social skills and better ways to communicate and work out problems. 73
Negative peer pressure is when teens feel pressured to do something they know is wrong, such as smoking, drinking, stealing, or cutting class. 74 This is because they want to be liked or fit in, they are afraid of being made fun of, or they want to try something other teens are doing.
