课时作业B：能力层面
Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
(2019·石家庄市重点高中摸底考试)Many Canadians are aware that problems with the nation's health care system have resulted in a lack of hospital beds and medical equipment, overcrowded emergency rooms, long waiting lists, and not enough family doctors.
Over the last 10 years, the number of medical students choosing the family practice as their lifelong career has been dropping at a surprising rate. When asked why they lack interest in family medicine, the students cite (援引) a heavy student debt load and the long hours required of a doctor who is managing the family practice. As in other kinds of work, young doctors today want a balance between their professional and personal lives.
In British Columbia (BC) this problem is made worse because the province produces fewer medical graduates for each person than any other province in Canada. The provincial government has committed itself to doubling the number of medical student graduates. This strategy doesn't come close to giving us the new doctors needed each year in BC to replace those who are retiring, moving out of the province, reducing their hours of practice, or dying.
The primary care system is showing its cracks. Ten years ago, 2，030 of BC's family doctors were providing obstetrical (产科的) care. Today just 945 are performing this invaluable service. Although delivering babies is a “good news” area of medicine, the hours are long, but the reward for bringing new life into the world is modest. It's no surprise, then, that many of BC's family doctors are no longer taking on new patients. In 1999, there were 1，420 family doctors accepting new patients—in 2004 that number declined to 599, a drop of 58%.
The foundation of primary care needs to be strengthened. The Working Agreement between the doctors and the government includes a series of primary care renewal projects designed to make the family practice more attractive to medical graduates, improve upon working conditions, and entice family doctors from outside BC to start their business here. Yet still more needs to be done.
【语篇解读】 该文主要介绍了加拿大家庭医生严重缺乏的问题。

A．The student debt and long working hours.
B．Long term of study at a medical school.

A [细节理解题。根据第二段第二句“When asked why they lack interest in family medicine, the students cite (援引) a heavy student debt load and the long hours required of a doctor who is managing the family practice”可知，学生债务负担和工作时间长成为阻碍医科学生选择成为家庭医生的两大障碍，故选A。]
2．What does the text say about family doctors in BC?
A．They are no longer needed.
B．They are too few in number.
C．They will soon become abundant.

B [细节理解题。根据第四段第二、三句“Ten years ago, 2，030 of BC's family doctors were providing obstetrical(产科的) care.

3．Which can replace the underlined word “entice” in the last paragraph?
A．Forbid. B．Hire.
C．Remind. D．Attract.
D [词义猜测题。根据最后一段第二句中的关键词“attractive”和“improve”可推知，画线词在此处的含义与D项“吸引”相近，故选D。]

A．To show sympathy for family doctors.
B．To inspire young people to be family doctors.
C．To stress the urgent need of more family doctors.

(2019·成都市毕业班第一次诊断性检测)Young trees don't just grow；they develop a personality and learn more about their environment and how they should best behave in it. They also help each other out whenever there's trouble.
Personality, just as among people, varies among trees. Some are anxious, some bold. On the author's land，there are three oak trees growing close together. One of the oak trees always starts to shed its leaves two weeks earlier than the others. Since they all experience the same temperature，the same soil and the same length of day，such variables can't be the explanation. So what's happening？Well，this tree is simply more careful than the others. Whoever holds on to their leaves longer can do more photosynthesis(光合作用) and store more nutrients. However，the longer a tree keeps its leaves，the higher the risk of injury.
Not only do trees make their own decisions，they also learn from their mistakes. A tree，for example，keeping its leaves too long during one year will never make this mistake again. This leads to several other conclusions：trees must notice the temperature and the length of the day and be able to save their experiences somewhere. Obviously，trees don't have brains，but it is thought that in the sensitive tips of their roots they keep track of information and experiences.
But trees aren't only clever when it comes to caring for themselves. They also support each other whenever there's trouble by giving warnings and even taking care of sick and weak conspecifics with nutrients. For example，one time the author found a very old tree stump. Its insides had rotted a long time ago to topsoil. But the wood on the outside of the stump was still living. How was this possible？Well，the stump was nourished by its neighbors with nutrients from the root system, and had been for at least 400 years!
Why do trees do such a thing？It's simple: it's better together. Trees need the forest; it protects them from storms, provides the right microclimate and warns them of attacks.

【语篇解读】 这是一篇说明文，主要叙述了美国青少年暑期生活的变化。
1．cleaning [考查非谓语动词。根据空前的并列连词and可知，空处与前面的cooking并列作be busy(in) doing sth.结构的宾语。]
2．However [考查副词。由上文中的“It used to be common”以及空后的“the scene is becoming less common”可知，此处前后句构成转折关系，故用However。]
3．their [考查代词。根据语境可知，空处修饰名词free time，故应用they的形容词性物主代词their在句中作定语，表示“他们的”。]
4．from [考查固定搭配。这种变化部分是由青少年得到的薪水很低而难以支付大学的费用造成的。result from“(由……而)造成”为固定搭配。]
5．expectations [考查词形转换和名词的单复数。根据语境及空前的“their”可知，空处应用expect的名词复数形式，表示“他们的那些期望”。]

8．is considered [考查时态和语态。根据语境可知，文章叙述的是一般情况，应用一般现在时，此处表示“这被认为是一个明智的选择”，应用被动语态，故用一般现在时的被动语态。]
9．a [考查冠词。根据空前的“is”和空后的“human activity”可知，此处表示泛指“一项人类活动”，且human的发音以辅音音素开头，故用不定冠词a。]
10．practical [考查形容词。修饰名词应用形容词，故用practical“实用的”。]
Ⅳ.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。续写的词数应为150左右。
In 2004，my husband，Joe and I worked in a design company in Arizona.One day，when we got back home after work，my ten-year-old daughter，Becky and Joe were united in their desire for a dog.As for me，I shared none of theirs.
“But why，”they pleaded(恳求)．“Because I don't have time to take care of a dog.”But we'll do it.“Really？You're going to walk the dog？Feed the dog？Bathe the dog？”Yes，yes，and yes.“I don't believe you.”We will.We promise.
They didn't.They wanted to walk the cute dog that first day.From day two，neither of them thought to walk the dog.While I was slow to accept that I would be the one to keep track of her shots，to feed and clean her，Misty knew this on day one.As she looked up at the three new humans in her life，she calculated，“The medium one is the most reliable.”
Quickly，she and I developed something very similar to a Vulcan mind meld(心灵相通)．She'd look at me with those sad brown eyes of hers，send her need，and then wait，trusting I would understand—which，strangely，I almost always did.In no time，she would extend across my stomach as I watched television，and snored on my home-office couch as I worked on my design.
Even so，part of me continued to reject walking duty.Joe and Becky had promised.“Not fair.”I said to myself as she and I walked.“Not fair.”I'd loudly remind anyone within earshot upon our return home.
In September，2008，the Great Depression hit Arizona.With that，my husband and I were both laid off overnight.During the following six months，Joe and I hurriedly rushed here and there to seek a new job，doing anything and everything we could to request employment.Every part of my life changed；no part of my old routine remained.However，Misty still needed walking.
Paragraph 1：
Upset as I was，I had to walk Misty while seeking a job.
Paragraph 2：
Months going by，my life changed a little and I came to enjoy my walks with Misty.
【参考范文】
Paragraph 1：
Upset as I was，I had to walk Misty while seeking a job.I felt it a heavy duty to apply my energy to the routine walk.Every time I walked Misty，I felt exhausted and fed up.One day，Misty stopped in front of me，unwilling to move forward despite my dragging the rope.Dramatically，all my anxiety，exhaustion and displeasure erupted like a volcano.I knelt down，burying my head in my hands，tears rolling down my face.Then，Misty approached me and laid her head on my knees to comfort me.I was a little embarrassed but grateful for Misty's understanding.Then I stood up，with my steps firm and powerful.
Paragraph 2：
Months going by，my life changed a little and I came to enjoy my walks with Misty.It felt more like relaxation than duty.Misty shared my negative feelings and kept walking peacefully，which comforted me a lot.Thanks to Misty's silent companion，I regained the enthusiasm to life and finally went through the hard times.With my unremitting efforts，I eventually got a new job，and so did Joe.Everything seemed to be just fine and my family went back to routine.But something did change—I had an earnest and faithful friend.
