2017秋英语(人教)优生巩固题:选修7Unit1含解析
Task 1: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。
(2014·新课标全国Ⅰ,C)A typical lion tamer (驯兽师) in people's mind is an entertainer holding a whip (鞭)and a chair.The whip gets all of the attention,but it's mostly for show.In reality,it's the chair that does the important work.When a lion tamer holds a chair in front of the lion's face,the lion tries to focus on all four legs of the chair at the same time.With its focus divided,the lion becomes confused and is unsure about what to do next.When faced with so many options,the lion chooses to freeze and wait instead of attacking the man holding the chair.【来源:21·世纪·教育·网】
How often do you find yourself in the same position as the lion?How often do you have something you want to achieve (e.g.lose weight,start a business,travel more)—only to end up confused by all of the options in front of you and never make progress?21*cnjy*com
This upsets me to no end because while all the experts are busy debating about which option is best,the people who want to improve their lives are left confused by all of the conflicting information.The end result is that we feel like we can't focus or that we're focused on the wrong things,and so we take less action,make less progress,and stay the same when we could be improving.【来源:21cnj*y.co*m】
It doesn't have to be that way.Anytime you find the world waving a chair in your face,remember this:All you need to do is focus on one thing.You just need to get started.Starting before you feel ready is one of the habits of successful people.If you have somewhere you want to go,something you want to accomplish,someone you want to become...take immediate action.If you're clear about where you want to go,the rest of the world will either help you get there or get out of the way.【版权所有:21教育】

Task 1:阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
(2015·广东,D)It was once common to regard Britain as a society with class distinction.Each class had unique characteristics.www.21-cn-jy.com
In recent years,many writers have begun to speak of the ‘decline of class’ and ‘classless society’ in Britain.And in modern day consumer society everyone is considered to be middle class.
But pronouncing the death of class is too early.A recent wide-ranging study of public opinion found 90 percent of people still placing themselves in a particular class;73 percent agreed that class was still a vital part of British society;and 52 percent thought there were still sharp class differences.Thus,class may not be culturally and politically obvious,yet it remains an important part of British society.Britain seems to have a love of stratification.2-1-c-n-j-y
One unchanging aspect of a British person's class position is accent.The words a person speaks tell her or his class.A study of British accents during the 1970s found that a voice sounding like a BBC newsreader was viewed as the most attractive voice.Most people said this accent sounded ‘educated’ and ‘soft’.The accents placed at the bottom in this study,on the other hand,were regional(地区的)city accents.These accents were seen as ‘common’ and ‘ugly’.However,a similar study of British accents in the US turned these results upside down and placed some regional accents as the most attractive and BBC English as the least.This suggests that British attitudes towards accent have deep roots and are based on class prejudice.【版权所有:21教育】
In recent years,however,young upper middle-class people in London,have begun to adopt some regional accents,in order to hide their class origins.This is an indication of class becoming unnoticed.However,the 1995 pop song ‘Common People’ puts forward the view that though a middle-class person may ‘want to live like common people’ they can never appreciate the reality of a working-class life.21教育名师原创作品
【语篇解读】 作者在文章中给我们介绍了两项调查,通过两项调查的结果我们可以看到,在英国社会里,阶级划分没有消失,它是英国社会重要的一部分。21*cnjy*com
1.A recent study of public opinion shows that in modern Britain ________.
A.it is time to end class distinction
B.most people belong to middle class
C.it is easy to recognize a person's class
D.people regard themselves socially different
答案 D [细节理解题。根据第三段第二句“A recent wide-ranging study of public opinion found 90 percent of people still placing themselves in a particular class;73 percent agreed that class was still a vital part of British society...”可知,最近的研究表明,人们还是认为自己处在不同的社会阶层,故选D。]21cnjy.com
2.The word stratification in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to ________.【出处:21教育名师】
A.variety B.division
C.authority D.qualification
答案 B [词义猜测题。根据文章第三段的内容可知,通过一项关于英国社会阶级是否开始消亡的调查可知,绝大多数人仍然认为英国社会中存在不同的阶级,这是英国社会中重要的一部分。由此可知,英国人好像对阶级划分非常热衷。stratification划分,与B项是同义词,故选B。]21教育网
3.The study in the US showed that BBC English was regarded as ________.
A.regional B.educated
C.prejudiced D.unattractive
答案 D [细节理解题。根据第四段倒数第二句“However,a similar study of British accents in the US turned these results upside down and placed some regional accents as the most attractive and BBC English as the least.”可知,在美国的这份研究中BBC英语是最不吸引人的,故选D。]
4.British attitudes towards accent ________.
A.have a long tradition
B.are based on regional status
C.are shared by the Americans
D.have changed in recent years
答案 A [推理判断题。根据第四段最后一句“This suggests that British attitudes towards accent have deep roots and are based on class prejudice.”可知,英国人对口音的态度根深蒂固,且源于阶级歧视。故选A。]21·世纪*教育网
5.What is the main idea of the passage?
A.The middle class is expanding.
B.A person's accent reflects his class.
C.Class is a key part of British society.
D.Each class has unique characteristics.
答案 C [主旨大意题。作者在文章中给我们介绍了两项调查,其中一项告诉我们大多数人认为阶级划分是英国社会必不可少的一部分,另一项是关于人们说话的口音,美国和英国的调查结果恰好相反,也说明英国阶级划分的根源非常深,由此可知C选项“阶级是英国社会中的一个重要部分”符合文章主旨大意,故选C。]21世纪教育网版权所有

(2013·新课标全国Ⅱ,A)Doctors are known to be terrible pilots.They don't listen because they already know it all.I was lucky:I became a pilot in 1970,almost ten years before I graduated from medical school.I didn't realize then,but becoming a pilot makes me a better surgeon.I loved flying.As I flew bigger,faster planes,and in worse weather,I learned about crew resource management(机组资源管理),or CRM,a new idea to make flying safer.It means that crew members should listen and speak up for a good result,regardless of positions.21世纪教育网版权所有
I first read about CRM in 1980.Not long after that,an attending doctor and I were flying in bad weather.The controller had us turn too late to get our landing ready.The attending doctor was flying;I was safety pilot.He was so busy because of the bad turn,he had forgotten to put the landing gear(起落架)down.He was a better pilot—and my boss—so it felt unusual to speak up.But I had to:Our lives were in danger.I put aside my uneasiness and said,“We need to put the landing gear down now!”That was my first real lesson in the power of CRM,and I've used it in the operating room ever since.2·1·c·n·j·y
CRM requires that the pilot/surgeon encourage others to speak up.It further requires that when opinions are from the opposite,the doctor doesn't overreact,which might prevent fellow doctors from voicing opinions again.So when I'm in the operating room,I ask for ideas and help from others.Sometimes they're not willing to speak up.But I hope that if I continue to encourage them,someday someone will keep me from “landing__gear__up”.2-1-c-n-j-y
