Charles Dickens (1812-1870), the great nineteenth century English novelist, was born near Portsmouth. His father ran heavily into debt and when he was twelve, he had to go and work in a factory for making boot polish. The only formal education he received was a two-year schooling at a school for poor children. In fact, he had to teach himself all he knew. He worked for a time as a junior clerk in a lawyer’s office. After that, he worked as a reporter in the law courts, and later in Parliament, for London newspapers.
His career as a writer of fiction began in 1833 with short stories and essays in periodicals(期刊), and in 1837 his comic novel The Pickwick Papers made him the most popular author at his time in England.
He was a great observer of people and their places because he was attracted by life and conditions in mid-nineteenth century London. He wrote 19 novels all his life and in many of them, Dickens gave a realistic picture of all classes of England society, showing deep sympathy for the poor and unfortunate, exposing the injustice and inhumanity of the middle class. Many of his novels like Oliver Twist, David Copperfield, Nicholas Nickleby, Great Expectations, A Tale of Two Cities and so on drew attention to the unsatisfactory social conditions that existed in England over a hundred years ago. Dickens criticized capitalist society from the point of view of bourgeois humanism. He wished to see improvement in the living conditions of the poor, but failed to find any effective means to achieve that end.
56. Dickens only received a little formal education because______.
A. he wanted to teach himself
B. he wanted to work and made a lot of money
C. he was too poor to afford any more formal education
D. he wanted some working experiences to be a novelist
57. According to Dickens, society at his time in England was________.
A. just B. poor C. comfortable D. unsatisfying
58. Which of the following novel made Dickens the most popular writer at his time in England?
A. Oliver Twist B. The Pickwick Papers
C. A Tale of Two Cities D. Great Expectations
59. According to the passage, which of the following about Dickens is true?
A. He didn’t go to school at all.
B. He only wrote about poor people and showed deep sympathy for them.
C. He began to write fictions when he was 21 years old.
D. He found some effective ways to improve the living conditions of the poor.
60. It can be inferred from the passage that________.
A. Dickens had a miserable（悲惨的;可怜的）childhood
B. His career as a writer of fiction began in 1833
C. Dickens wrote many novels but only some of them are popular
D. Dickens criticized capitalist society and helped to improve the living conditions of the poor
B
A sunflower is a sunflower. A mobile phone is a mobile phone. But can you combine the two to do something for your local environment? As early as next year it may well be possible. When you have finished with your mobile phone you will be able to bury it in a garden or a plant pot and wait for it to flower.
A biodegradable (生物所能分解的) mobile phone was, this month, introduced by scientists. It is hoped that the new type of phone will encourage consumers to recycle.
Scientists have come up with a new material over the last five years. It looks like any other plastic and can be hard or soft, and is able to change shape. Over time it can also break down into the soil without giving out any poisonous chemicals. British researchers used the new material to develop a phone cover that contains a sunflower seed. When this new type of cover turns into waste, it forms fertilizers. These feed the seed and help the flower grow.
Engineers have designed a small transparent (透明的) window to hold the seed. They have made sure it only grows when the phone is thrown away. “We’ve only put sunflower seeds into the covers so far. But we are working with plant experts to find out which flowers would perform best. Maybe we could put roses in next time,” said one scientist.
As phone technology is developing so quickly, people are constantly throwing their mobiles away. This means manufacturers are under pressure to find ways of recycling them. Some 650 million mobile phones have been sold this year. Most of them will be thrown away within two years, adding plastic, heavy metal and chemical waste to the environment. A biodegradable cover can offer some relief (缓解) for nature , according to the scientists.
“The seed comes out and the flower grows in the pot so you don’t have to concern yourself with the phone when you have finished using it,” said Kerry Kirwan. She leads the research team, which is based at the University of Warwick in Britain.
What is the purpose of this passage? A. To tell the popularity of biodegradable cell phones. B. To persuade the reader to buy the biodegradable cell phone. C. To discuss the development of phone technology. D. To introduce an environmentally-friendly cell phone to readers.
People throw away their cell phones most probably because _______. A．there is something wrong with them B．no sunflowers can grow out of them C．they are out of fashion D．they are becoming cheaper and cheaper
It could be learned from the passage that _________. A．developing the new type of phone is mainly to protect the environment B．phone-makers will benefit much more from the new type of phone C．the new type of phone will certainly be popular with users all over the world D．the phones that can be recycled are available only in Britain now
What might be the best title for this passage? A．Sunflower and Phone. B．Plant Your Phone. C．Protect Our Environment. D．No Worry about Phone.
Where can we probably find the passage above? A. In a novel. B. In a magazine. C. In a textbook. D. In a diary
C
We're all connected. You can send an e-mail message to a friend, and your friend can pass it on to one of his or her friends, and that friend can do the same, continuing the chain. Eventually, your message could reach just about anyone in the world, and it might take only five to seven e-mails for the message to get there.
Scientists recently tested that idea in a study involving 24,000 people. Participants had to try to get a message forwarded to one of 18 randomly chosen people. Each participant started by sending one e-mail to someone they knew. Recipients could then forward the e-mail once to someone they knew, and so on.
Targets, who were randomly assigned by researchers from Columbia University in New York, lived in 13 countries. They included an Australian police officer, a Norwegian veterinarian, and a college professor.
Out of 24,000 chains, only 384 reached their goal. The rest petered out, usually because one of the recipients was either too busy to forward the message or thought it was junk mail.
The links that reached their goal made it in an average of 4.05 e-mails. Based on the lengths of the failed chains, the researchers estimated that two strangers could generally make contact in five to seven e-mails.
The most successful chains relied on casual acquaintances rather than close friends. That's because your close friends know each other whereas your acquaintances tend to know people you don't know. The phenomenon, known as the strength of weak ties, explains why people tend to get jobs through people they know casually but aren't that close to.
So, start networking and instant messaging now. As they say in show business: It's all about who you know.
66 . If you want to get into touch with a stranger in the world, how many e-mails might it take for the message to reach him/her?
A. 5 to 7 B. 18 C. 13 D. 384
67. Which of the following is Not true about the test?
A. 24,000 people took part in the study and sent e-mails to people they knew.
B. The 18 targets were chosen by chance.
C. About 98.4% of the mails didn’t reach their goal because some people were too busy or they mistook the message for junk mail.
D. The targets come from 13 countries, such as Australia, Norway and New York.
68. What does the word “estimate” mean in the passage?
A. make sure B. suppose C. think over D. imagine
69. Why do people tend to get jobs more easily through casual acquaintances than close friends?
A. Because close friends don’t talk with each other so much.
B. Because casual acquaintances can help you know more people and make more friends.
C. Because close friends don’t spend so much time gathering together.
D. Because casual acquaintances are kinder and more willing to help others.
70 . In which part of a newspaper will readers read this passage?
A. Culture B. Entertainment C. Information and technology D. Health

Walking is a popular form of exercises. It is an easy activity and offers a good way to improve physical fitness. Walking also gives many of the same benefits as other kinds of exercises.
Regular, brisk walks helps a person’s body work better. Walking builds a stronger heart and lungs. The heart pumps blood through the body. It gets more rest between beats. Walking also seems to help protect the heart from heart diseases. The lungs work better because they take in and use oxygen more effectively. Walking can help __________, too. A quick fifteen-minute walk burns as many calories as jogging the same distance in half the time. Walking causes very few injuries. So there is also a lower “dropout” rate among walkers than among runners. People are more likely to continue a walking program. This gives a better chance for success.
Walking offers some mental benefits, too. It seems to make people feel better. Many walkers say they sleep better at night when they take regular walks. Others say they have a better attitude about life.
Walking offers many of the same physical and mental benefits as other forms of exercise, but walking offers some special advantages, too.
★ Almost everyone can walk. There are no special lessons of coaching. To become a serious walker, a person only needs to walk faster, farther and more often.
★ People can walk almost anywhere. There are no special playing fields or courts for walking. Sidewalks, streets, parks, fields and malls are excellent places for walking.
★ People can walk almost anytime. A person doesn’t need a team or a partner for walking. There is no “season” for walking. Most walkers walk in all kinds of weather.
★ Walking doesn’t cost anything. There are no special fees for walking. Good walking shoes and comfortable clothes are the only equipment that a walker needs.
Walking offers a form of exercise within the reach of nearly everyone. With a little time and effort, people can rediscover a valuable form of exercise and improve their fitness.

Unit 1-2检测题 答案
II 单选
21—25 CDCBD 26—30 CBADB 31—35 CCDCB
21．C 考查冠词。position后有of短语作后置定语，是特指，故用定冠词the；a parent一个父/母亲。
22. D 句意为：杰克又迟到了，让别人等他是他的典型特点。typical典型的，符合句意，而normal普通、正规的，ordinary正常的，common共同的，均不合句意。
23. C 句意为：昨天她买了许多鸡蛋，可有40个打碎了。scores of表“大量，许多”；two score eggs表示“40个鸡蛋”。
24. B 由句子结构可知空格处应选一分词形式作状语，另由句子主语they与动词aim的主谓关系可知应选aiming表主动。
25. D 考查虚拟语气。Had I been a little more careful是If I had been a little more careful的省略倒装形式，由此可知是对过去事实的假设，所以主句谓语用wouldn’t have done。句意为：如果我再细心点，就不会犯这么愚蠢的错误了。
26. C 考查短语辨析。appeal to对(某人)有吸引力，(使某人)感兴趣。lead to导致；adapt to适应；contribute to有助于，促使(发生某情况)。
27. B 考查强调句和定语从句。强调部分为in the lab which was taken charge of by Johnson，其中which was taken charge of by Johnson是定语从句，修饰lab。句意为：他们是在Johnson负责的实验室里做的实验。
28. A 考查动词短语。let out意为“放大，放宽”；give away意为“赠送，泄露”；bring in意为“引进，创收”；lay out意为“铺开；布置；策划”。
29. D 动词不定式作so many problems的定语，remain是系动词，故在with结构中用remaining，不存在被动，故不用remained。remaining后接不定式to be settled意为“有待解决的”。
30. B 句意为：爱因斯坦的相对论是如此抽象以致我们大多数人都不理解。abstract“抽象的”符合题意。
31. C run out用完，用光，为不及物动词短语；run out of用完，是及物动词短语，需接宾语。
32. C 考查虚拟语气。wish后的宾语从句应用虚拟语气，此处表示将来的愿望，故从句的谓语用could play。
33. D 句意为：任何人未经允许而持有武器都被认为是违法的。in possession of拥有。
34. C. insist 表“坚持要求”，虚拟语气。
35. B 考查交际用语。Take it easy别紧张，放松，用于安慰别人。句意为：“王老师，随着比赛的临近，我感到非常紧张。”“放松。只要你能完成比赛，这就是胜利。”Take one’s time慢慢来，不着急；No problem没问题，表示乐于相助或事情容易做；It’s hard to say(这)很难说。
III.完形填空
【语篇解读】 哥哥在一次事故中去世，可是他生前乐于助人的精神一直激励着作者。文章讲述了哥哥助人的一个事例。
36. D 联系作者对哥哥的思念之情，结合下文提到他乐于助人可知，他总是照顾作者。hardly，never和seldom都表示否定意义。
37．B 根据下文中提到的all of the special times we had as running partners等情节可以推知作者对哥哥充满感激之情。
38．C 此处选spent用作times的定语，这里没有“腾出、浪费或节省”之意。
39．D 联系下文中的I...these talks terribly，说明作者经常和哥哥一起谈论生活。
40．A 作者怀念和哥哥在一起时的谈话。terribly非常地，是关键词。
41．A 第一段主要描述了作者对哥哥的思念之情，第二段主要讲了哥哥助人为乐的故事。此处作者想要表达的是“能与哥哥分享有关他坚定信念的故事他很高兴”。这与上文的“思念”形成了转折关系，故选However。
42．C 作者很高兴，哥哥能和他一起分享有关他的坚定信念的故事，这里指下文中描述的哥哥帮助别人的事情。
43．B 根据下文I had been with him many times...help someone in need可知，他总是乐于助人。
44．D 有很多次，作者和哥哥停下车来帮助那些需要帮助的人。when引导定语从句。
45．A share分享。此处表示哥哥把微笑和帮助带给他人。
46．C 作者对哥哥的乐于助人有所了解，所以当他说起在大学时期的一些事情的时候，作者并不感到吃惊。
47．D 那时他还在上大学。
48．B 他那个时候还在上大学，到了月底，而且又是周五(星期一是发薪日)，所以他身无分文。下文的no money是提示。
49．C 他没有钱回家看望父亲，没有钱买食物。
50．A 虽然身无分文，但是他始终坚信帮助别人就意味着帮助自己。
51．B 根据下文中的helped him load the lumber back into his truck(帮忙把木材重新装到车上)可知，在拐弯的时候木材掉了。
52．C 他停下车，帮助卡车司机把木材重新装到车上。pull over驶向路边，向路边停靠。
53．C 卡车司机把手伸向Mark。offer sb.’s hand伸出手。
54．A 司机手里是一百美元，Mark不敢相信他的眼睛，言外之意，这使他很吃惊。结合上文中提到的他的窘境可知，司机给的钱无疑是雪中送炭。
55．D Mark告诉卡车司机没必要给钱，但是司机仍然坚持要给他。
