最新人教版高中英语必修三复习试题及答案解析

Unit 1 Festivals around the world

一、阅读理解

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。

Those who claim bananas are fattening argue that bananas cause the body to make lots of insulin(胰岛素)，and insulin causes fat growth.

How much insulin we produce is related to how fast food becomes sugar in our bloodstream.How can you know if food makes a lot of sugar quickly? The glycemic index(血糖指数)，or GI rating tells us.Foods with GI scores above 75 are considered high­GI foods，leading to faster sugar development.Bananas have a GI of 62，which is considered low.

Weight loss can be a struggle for anyone，but it is especially hard for diabetics(糖尿病患者)．A study looked at how the starch from unripe bananas affected the weight of a group of obese diabetics.After four weeks of a diet high in bananas，diabetics lost significantly more weight than on a control diet.They also saw improvements in insulin sensitivity from the banana diet.

What's more，bananas have been shown to cut risks of strokes，diabetes and cancers(Bananas are the most powerful fruit for lowering the risk of kidney cancer.)．Bananas are also a rich source of fiber，which has been shown to help weight loss.Bananas that still have some green on the skin are even higher in fiber.

Skins from green bananas can be taken and，after removing the stem and dark tip，cut into small pieces 2­3 inches long and 1/2 inch wide.These pieces can be made into a tea or added to a dish.When you eat the skins，be sure you are eating organic bananas.The flesh of regular bananas is low in pesticides，but the skins are not.

1．What conclusion can we draw from Paragraphs 1&2?

A．Bananas are likely to make people fat.

B．Insulin determines the amount of sugar.

C．Low­GI foods can turn into sugar more slowly.

D．The faster the food becomes sugar，the less insulin.

2．What does the author say about bananas?

A．Including bananas in diets is good for health.

B．Bananas can cure people suffering kidney cancer.

C．Eating organic bananas protect people from strokes.

D．Bananas' abundant fiber improves insulin sensitivity.

3．What is discussed in the last paragraph?

A．The use of banana skins.

B．The benefits of banana skins.

C．The importance of banana skins.

D．The ways of choosing organic bananas.

4．In which section of a newspaper can we read this passage?

A．Education. B．Health.

C．Culture. D．Science.

【解题导语】本文反驳了“吃香蕉会使人发胖”这一错误观点，告诉大家香蕉不会使身体分泌很多胰岛素而导致脂肪增加，相反，香蕉对身体健康有着诸多好处。

1．C　考查推理判断。根据第二段中“How can you know if food makes a lot of sugar quickly? The glycemic index(血糖指数)．..faster sugar development”可知，血糖指数高的食物往往能更快地转化成糖分，反之，血糖指数低的食物转化成糖分的速度较慢。故选C。

2．A　考查推理判断。根据文章第三段中的“diabetics lost significantly more weight than on a control diet.They also saw improvements in insulin sensitivity from the banana diet”及第四段的“bananas have been shown to cut risks of strokes，diabetes and cancers...weight loss”可知，香蕉可以帮助人们减肥，也能降低人们患中风、糖尿病及癌症的风险，由此可得出这样的结论：将香蕉列入日常饮食对人们的健康有益，故选A。

3．A　考查主旨要义。根据最后一段的内容尤其是“...can be made into a tea or added to a dish”可知，本段主要讲的是香蕉皮的用途。故选A。

4．B　考查推理判断。纵观全文可知，香蕉不仅有助于减肥，还能降低人们患中风、糖尿病及癌症的风险，而且香蕉皮也有用处。由此可知，本文最有可能出现在报纸的健康专栏。故选B。

二、单句语法填空

1．(2017·北京高考)Samuel, the tallest boy in our class, ________ easily reach the books on the top shelf.

答案：can　此处表示能力，要用can。

2．I think you should apologize to your brother ________your rudeness.

答案：for　apologize to sb. for sth. “因为某事向某人道歉”。

3．It is surprising that there are still many people in the world ________(starve) to death each year.

答案：starving　starve to death “饿死”，people和starve在逻辑上存在主谓关系，故要用starve的现在分词形式，作后置定语。

4．No official ________(permit) has been given for the event to take place.

答案：permission　official permission “官方许可”，在句中是名词短语作主语。

5．Forgive others, and you ________(forgive)．

答案：will be forgiven　本句是“祈使句，and sb. will do ...”句式，本句中forgive和you存在逻辑上的动宾关系，应用被动语态。

6．The story reminds me ________an unforgettable experience I once had.

答案：of　remind sb. of sth. “使某人想到某事”。

7．Contrary to the popular belief ________classical music is too complex, it achieves a simplicity that only a genius can create.

答案：that　句中belief为一抽象名词，其后接由that连接的同位语从句进一步解释说明belief。

8．I'd like to express my ________(admire) for the courage and uncomplaining spirit of the firefighters.

答案：admiration　由空前的人称代词my可知，此处应用名词admiration “敬佩”。

9．________was obvious to everyone that the child had been badly treated.

答案：It　It is obvious that ... “很明显……”。

10．The judge ________(award) him $1,000 in damages.

五、七选五

Coming face­to­face with your inadequacies(缺点)can be painful，to say the least.__1__ It even makes you question yourself.Your knee­jerk reaction may be to get defensive or even dismiss the critique entirely.But handling negative feedback with grace will not only make you look gracious，but it could ultimately help you grow as a person.Here's how to do it.

1．Be objective about the criticism

Before you jump to conclusions and begin to challenge the other person's opinion，take a step back and look at it objectively.

Next time you get a bad review，don't immediately allow your emotions to get the better of you，but rather，take a moment to consider whether the criticism is at all accurate.__2__

2．Avoid unnecessary conflict

If you decide that the point is valid，it may be hard to take.In your discomfort，you may feel the urge to criticize the other person angrily and defend yourself.__3__

3．Be open to the idea of change

__4__ And it may be because of a concept called “cognitive dissonance” that can prevent us from changing even when that's what we need most.

4．Ask questions

If you're open to using the criticism as a springboard to improvement，you will likely need more information.__5__ Your emotions will be running high，and you may not be particularly receptive to extra information.However，when you feel ready，it could be worth revisiting the subject with the person who criticized you.Even if you don't agree with their advice，thank them and promise to consider it.

A．Most of us are pretty stubborn.

B．There is no doubt that change is necessary.

C．But it's best to avoid getting into an argument.

D．Being sensitive to criticism leads you nowhere.

E．It challenges the way you believe people see you.

F．Give yourself a chance to really take in the information and evaluate it.

G．The initial moment you hear it may not be the best time to ask for more details.

【解题导语】听到别人对你的批评也许会很痛苦，但是如果优雅地处理这些问题，自己将变得更好。

1．E　根据空后一句话可知，空处与下一句是递进关系，E项“这会挑战你认为别人看待你的方式”，所以E项符合语境。

2．F　根据空前的“don't immediately allow your emotions to get the better of you，but rather，take a moment to consider whether the criticism is at all accurate”可知，空处应讲给自己一个机会真正吸收这些信息并对其进行评估。故F项符合语境。

3．C　根据该段小标题“Avoid unnecessary conflict”可知，C项“但是最好避免陷入争吵”符合语境。

4．A　根据空后的“And it may be because of a concept called‘cognitive dissonance’ that can prevent us from changing even when that's what we need most”及本段小标题可知，A项“我们大部分人都很倔强”符合语境。

5．G　根据空后的“Your emotions will be running high, and you may not be particularly receptive to extra information”并结合上文可知，空处应讲最开始听到批评时不适合问更多的细节，故G项符合语境。

【解题导语】本文是夹叙夹议文。作者在异国他乡找到了自己的“家”。

1．D　根据最后一段开头的Yet again, I am living in Spain on my year abroad, but this time with students可知，作者重“访(visit)”西班牙。

2．B　根据上文的I felt like I was at home和下文的feel like this可知，在异国他乡能找到家的感觉确实“幸运(lucky)”。

3．D　如果在某个地方——“不一定(not necessarily)”就是家——能找到家的感觉，那真是幸运。

4．C　根据上文的nice，felt like，feel like可知，作者认识到家就是“心灵(heart)”的归属地。

5．A　根据上文的A lot of people get homesick及常识可知，思乡是一种“正常的(normal)”情感。

6．C　根据上文的homesick可知，一个人远离自己“所爱的(loved)”人和家中的舒适，当然会泛起乡愁。

7．A　下文提到的在异乡也能找到家的感觉与上文意义上发生了转折，故选However。

8．D

9．A　根据上文的you can feel at home可知，此处意思是，如果在一个地方能与“关爱(care for)”自己的人在一起、觉得比较“舒服(comfortable)”，那自然能找到家的感觉。

10．B

11．B　根据这两个空所在句中的embracing every moment, enjoying和you can feel settled in a short amount of time可知，如果能珍惜每个瞬间、“交(making)”些朋友、享受新的“文化(culture)”，那很快就能融入当地的生活。

13．D　根据下文的helped to ease the process of feeling happy and settled可知，寄宿家庭的成员都很“友好(friendly)”。

14．B　根据上文的see how the children grow up可知，能“亲历(experience)”这一过程，作者感到很幸福。

15．C　上文的host family是提示。

16．D

17．A　因为是第二次来西班牙，所以作者这次“安定(settling in)”下来要比上次更容易些，因为他已经“熟悉(accustomed to)”了当地的文化。

18．C　根据本空所在句中的moving away from home和different in comparison to what you call home可知，背井离乡自然需要“适应(adapt to)”异地不同于家乡的很多方面。

19．C

20．B　根据However可知，前后表示转折。作者认为虽然需要适应很多新事物，但是这恰巧就是旅游、探索、“发现(discovering)”自我的“乐趣(delight)”所在。

四、单句改错

_____________________________________________________

文章大意：一天，一位富人为了让儿子对他的财富充满“感激”，便带着儿子来到乡村去体验农民的生活，没想到结果却令富人“无语”，因为他的儿子想当农民。

答案：

With this，the boy got up and walked away，leaving his father on their comfortable sofa，totally speechless.

❶　解析：考查句意理解以及从属连词。本句的意思是：有一天，一位富人带着他的儿子去乡村旅行以便让他的儿子看看穷人是如何生活的；此处用来引导宾语从句，意为：如何；故用how。

❷　解析：考查固定短语。be thankful to后面跟人，表示感谢某人；be thankful for后面跟事物，表示对某事物表示感谢；由于此处之后接的是wealth(财富)；故用for。

❸　解析：考查连接代词。此处用来引导宾语从句，由于该从句中缺少主语，故用连接代词what。

❹　解析：考查return的含义。由于return“返回”相当于“go back/get back/come back”，即它本身就含有back的意思，其后不能再跟back；故去掉return之后的back。

❺　解析：考查谓语动词。此处在句中作谓语，根据上文可知，此处讲述的是发生在过去某一天的事情，应使用一般过去时；故用replied。

❻　解析：考查不定冠词。此处用来修饰单数名词farmer，表示泛指一位农民，故在farmer前加a。

❼　解析：考查名词的单复数。此处指的是：许多美丽的夜星；由于star为可数名词；故用stars。

❽　解析：考查人称代词。此处用来修饰名词family，指代的是男孩的家；故用his。

❾　解析：考查副词。此处用来修饰形容词rich，故用truly。

　解析：考查固定搭配。leave sb doing 指让某人保持某动作或状态，留下某人…；此处指的是：男孩站起来走开了，留下了他的父亲坐在他们舒适的沙发上，完全说不出话来；故用sitting。

Unit 3 The Million Pound Bank Note

一、阅读理解。

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。

Back home from the Navy，I started school at Greenville College in my hometown of Illinois.I'd been out of high school for four years，but my high school headmaster，Mr.Gardner，invited me to a Valentine's Day dance party at school.The thought of seeing my former teachers was exciting.So I agreed.

When Friday came，I cleaned up，dressed up and drove to the high school gym.I chatted with my teachers and approached Mr.Gardner to thank him before leaving.Just then，the band started playing and a young girl stood up to sing.One look at her and I was crazy—I had never seen such a beautiful girl!

I asked Mr.Gardner who she was，and he answered，“That's Marilyn Riley，Cut Riley's daughter.”I was shocked to say the least.They lived just around the corner from me.I walked across the gym floor to introduce myself，“Hi，I'm Jack Joseph.”

“I know who you are，”was her not­too­friendly response.

“Would you like to dance？”I asked.“No！I'm working，”she shot back.

“Can I call you next week for a movie date？”I asked.“No”was her response.

For the next month I phoned，trying to set up a date.She always had the same answer：No.Then one rainy afternoon in March as I was driving home after basketball practice，I saw Marilyn，walking with no umbrella，no raincoat and no hat.I pulled alongside her and asked if she needed a ride，half expecting her to say no.Instead，she stepped over the roadside and sat down on the seat next to me.It was only a few blocks to her house，but after pulling into her driveway we talked for 45 minutes.It was magic from then on.

1．Why did Jack decide to attend the party?

A．The party was held to welcome him back home.

B．Marilyn would be introduced to him at the party.

C．He could meet some of his former teachers there.

D．They gathered there to celebrate Valentine's Day.

2．What was the author's attitude towards the party?

A．Casual. B．Formal.

C．Passive. D．Worried.

3．We can infer from the text that ________.

A．Jack once served in the army after high school

B．it took Jack 45 minutes to drive Marilyn home

C．Jack and Marilyn were familiar with each other

D．it was Marilyn's cold attitude that interested Jack

【解题导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了作者海军退伍之后受母校校长邀请参加情人节舞会，遇到一位女孩并与其交往的故事。

【难句分析】Then one rainy afternoon in March as I was driving home after basketball practice，I saw Marilyn，walking with no umbrella，no raincoat and no hat.

分析：本句含有as引导的时间状语从句；现在分词短语walking with...no hat 作谓语动词saw的伴随状语。

译文：接着，在三月一个雨天的下午，在我篮球训练完开车回家的途中，我看见了Marilyn，她走在雨中，没有带雨伞，没有穿雨衣，也没有戴帽子。

1．C　考查细节理解。根据第一段的“The thought of seeing my former teaches was exciting.So I agreed”可以看出，由于在校园舞会上可以见到原来的老师，所以作者决定参加舞会。所以选C项。

2．B　考查推理判断。根据第二段首句“When Friday came，I cleaned up，dressed up and drove to the high school gym”的描述可以看出，作者对这次舞会的态度是很正式的(formal)。所以选B项。

3．A　考查推理判断。根据第一段的“Back home from the Navy，I started school at Greenville College in my hometown of Illinois.I'd been out of high school for four years”可以推断，作者在高中毕业后去海军服役4年，退役后就读于家乡的大学。所以选A项。

二、单句语法填空

1．(2017·北京高考)Jane moved aimlessly down the tree­lined street, not knowing ________ she was heading.

答案：where　根据语境可知，此处应填关系副词where，作宾语从句的连接词，表示“不知道前往何处”。

2．(2017·天津高考)I ________(drive) down to London when I suddenly found that I was on the wrong road.

答案：was driving　be doing... when... 是固定句式，表示“正在做……这时……”，从句用的是一般过去时，主句也应用过去时，且表示动作正在进行，故用过去进行时。

3．Today I will introduce Charles Dickens to you, the great nineteenth century English ________(novel)．

答案：novelist　novelist名词“小说家”。

4．The rules of the school do not permit ________(park) near the school gate.

答案：parking　permit doing sth. “允许做某事”。

5．We tried ________(seek) an answer to the question, but couldn't find one.

答案：to seek　try to seek sth. “努力去寻找某物”。

6．The best way to experience hutong life is simply ________(wander) around the alleys, either on foot or by bicycle.

答案：to wander　不定式短语，在本句中作表语，说明主语的具体内容。

7．It is very important to teach their children how to deal with others' kindness and ________(rude)．

答案：rudeness　由“kindness and”可知应用所给词的名词形式rudeness。

8．She lay on the grass, staring at the sky ________(spot) with stars.

答案：spotted　be spotted with “布满着……”，此处应用过去分词短语作后置定语。

9．The reason why he asked for two days' leave is ________he had to take care of his sick son.

答案：that

Unit 4 Astronomy the science of the stars

一、阅读理解。

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。

One of the main creators of the World Wide Web，Sir Tim Berners­Lee has warned that the fast growth of the Internet is also creating serious problems.

He especially warns of false information being easily spread around the Internet，“A great danger is that it becomes a place where untruths start to spread more than truths，or it becomes a place which becomes increasingly unfair in some way.”In particular he mentions the phenomena of blogging.Blogging enables friends and contacts to easily spread information.However he argues that people may too easily trust information mentioned in a blog.This inaccurate information can then easily become an accepted truth on the Internet.

He suggests that the most important development of the Internet will be in creating ways of allowing people to check the correctness of information by providing original sources.Sir Tim admits that this is an important challenge.It's interesting to note that Wikipedia(维基百科)has had to take steps to prevent false information from being added to the biographies of living people.It's easy for anybody to edit the open source.However，some people have pointed out that it has been used to spread false materials.In seeking to raise standards，Wikipedia has sought to stop the false materials.

At the same time there is a growing view that the Internet has had a great effect on the way millions of people work.The last two years have seen a big growth in the use of the Internet.There appears no slowdown in the growth of the Internet with increasing access in the developing countries.Sir Tim says another major challenge will be to provide free Internet for everybody.Sir Tim has recently launched a new joint initiative (倡议)between the University of Southampton and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology to create the first degree in Web science.The two schools hope to raise the standards of web content.

1．What is the especially serious problem that Sir Tim refers to?

A．The growth of the Internet is too fast.

B．The Internet has a side effect on young children.

C．The Internet companies compete against each other in an unfair way.

D．The false information spreads rapidly on the Internet.

2．What causes the biographies to have false information?

A．The Internet users refuses other users to correct them.

B．Wikipedia doesn't take any steps.

C．Anybody can easily edit the biographies.

D．Wikipedia attempts to publish false materials.

3．According to the last paragraph，the purpose of the joint initiative is to ________.

A．provide free Internet access to the poor countries

B．improve the reliability of online content

C．create the first degree in science and technology

D．enlarge the use of the Internet

4．We can infer from the text that ________.

A．Sir Tim has built two schools recently

B．the Internet is harmful to the people's health

C．Sir Tim hopes everyone can use the Internet for free

D．the Internet develops slowly in the developing countries

【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了互联网的快速发展所带来的一些问题。

1．D　考查细节理解。根据第二段第一句“He especially warns of false information being easily spread around the Internet”可知，他认为虚假的信息在网络上流传是尤其严重的问题，故选D。

2．C　考查推理判断。根据第三段中的“It's easy for anybody to edit the open source.However, some people have pointed out that it has been used to spread false materials”可知，任何人都可以轻易编辑这些传记，因此虚假信息很容易被传播，故选C。

3．B　考查推理判断。根据最后一段中的“the University of Southampton and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology to create the first degree in Web science.The two schools hope to raise the standards of web content”可知，这个联合倡议的目的是提高网上内容的可信度，故选B。

4．C　考查推理判断。根据“Sir Tim says another major challenge will be to provide free Internet for everybody”可知，Sir Tim希望每一个人都能免费上网，故选C。

二、单句语法填空

1．(2017·北京高考)Every year, ________ makes the most beautiful kite will win a prize in the Kite Festival.

答案：whoever　whoever “无论谁”，表泛指，在句中作主语，相当于anyone who。

2．My relationship with the actors is fundamental ________my work as a director.

答案：to　be fundamental to ... “……是……的基础”。

3．I can say that it is the ________(violence) film that I have ever seen.

答案：most violent　由“that I have ever seen”可知，此处应用形容词最高级。

4．His last paintings are perhaps the most ________(puzzle), which even the artists can't make sense of.

答案：puzzling　此处形容词puzzling “令人困惑的”作表语，描述主语paintings的本质特征。

5．________exists a good way to solve the problem in geography.

答案：There　There exists ... “存在……；有……”。

6．As second­hand smoking is ________(harm) and dangerous, people want a total ban against smoking in public.

答案：harmful　此处形容词harmful “有害的”作表语。

8．Though injured seriously, he tried to cheer ________ , hoping to make his parents less worried.

答案：up　cheer up “(使)感到高兴，(使)振作起来”。

9．Measures have been taken to prevent the river from ________(pollute)．

答案：being polluted　prevent sb./sth. from doing sth. “阻止某人/某物做某事”，且本句中pollute和river存在逻辑上的被动关系，故填动名词的被动结构。

10．________(like) what you supposed, only a few people attended the party, which was disappointing.

答案：Unlike　根据语意可知，“并不像”你所猜测的那样，故填Unlike，引导名词性从句。

【解题导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文，通过讲述妹妹追求梦想的经历告诉我们：天赋很重要，但更重要的是热情。

1．B　根据上文的“How did she sound？Terrible”可知，“我”妹妹的小提琴演奏得糟糕透了；结合本句的“But”表示的转折意义可知，但她没有放弃(quit)。

2．C　根据上文可知，尽管妹妹的小提琴演奏得很糟糕，但是她仍不愿放弃；据此可以判断，本句句意为：在十二岁时，她问父母她是否可以去全日制的音乐学校上学。attend school为固定搭配，意为“上学”。

3．A　根据上文的“They said no”和父母没有答应让她去全日制音乐学校学习可以判断，每个人都认为“我”的妹妹缺乏(lacked)天赋，故A项正确。

4．D　根据本段第三句的“So my parents found the best piano teacher in the area”可知，“我”的父母为“我”找了当地最好的钢琴老师教“我”学钢琴；据此可以判断，与妹妹相比，“我”更擅长“我”的乐器。

5．C　根据下文的“So my parents found the best piano teacher in the area”可知，“我”的父母为“我”找了当地最好的钢琴老师来教“我”学钢琴；据此可以判断，老师告诉父母说“我”很有潜能(potential)。A项意为“耐心”，B项意为“热情”，D项意为“抱负”，都与语境不符。

6．A　参见上题解析。A项意为“培训，教育”；B项意为“检查”；C项意为“改正”；D项意为“挑战”。

7．D　根据语境可知，钢琴老师只有每周六下午三点有空。D项意为“有空的”，符合语境，故D项正确。A项意为“准时的”，B项意为“技术好的”，C项意为“使用中”，都与语境不符。

8．B　根据本句中的“about the British TV show”可判断，“我”热衷于一档英国电视节目。be crazy about为固定搭配，意为“热衷于”，故B项正确。A项意为“敏感的”，C项意为“严肃的”，D项意为“特别的，尤其的”，都与语境不符。

9．C　根据该句中的“every Saturday at 3 p．m.”可知，这档英国电视节目在每周六的下午三点播放。air在本句中意为“播出，播送”，属于熟词生义，故C项正确。A项意为“拍电影”，B项意为“设计”，D项意为“评论”。

10．B　根据上文的“I let nothing take up my‘The Avengers' hour”可知，“我”不让任何事情占用“我”看这档节目的时间，据此可以判断，“我”拒绝了这一机会。B项意为“拒绝”，符合语境，故B项正确。A项意为“迫不及待地接受”，C项意为“等待，等候”，D项意为“打开；开发；展示”，都与语境不符。

11．D　根据本段的“So my parents found the best piano teacher in the area”可以判断，由于“我”拒绝了学钢琴，所以现在家里甚至一台钢琴也没有，故D项正确。

15．C　根据上文可知，“我”的父母认为妹妹没有音乐天赋，拒绝了妹妹上全日制音乐学校的请求，据此可以判断，妹妹做音乐老师时，给了孩子们她未曾得到(received)的鼓励和支持。A项意为“提供”，B项意为“想象”，D项意为“期望”，都与语境不符。

16．D　根据上文的“put on a recital”可知，妹妹和一位钢琴家举办了一场演奏会；据此可以判断，朋友和家人们都到场了。A项意为“投票”，B项意为“担心，害怕”，C项意为“熬夜”，D项意为“到达，露面”。

17．B　根据下文的“enjoying the music”可知，所有人都在欣赏妹妹演奏的音乐；据此可知，“我”环顾了四周的观众(audience)，故B项正确。A项意为“学生”，C项意为“聚光灯”，D项意为“平台，讲台”。

文章大意：短文为李明写给交换生Chris的一封信，表示在他来我校交换期间会帮助他适应环境，以及互相学习。

答案：

❶　解析：考查冠词，student是可数名词，前需加冠词，exchange是以元音音素开头的单词，因此使用不定冠词an。

❷　解析：考查固定搭配，表达“对于某人而言”使用介词for。

❸　解析：考查固定搭配，此处是“告诉某人”，使用tell sb.，多了介词about。

❹　解析：考查动词，should是情态动词，后接动词原形，因此使用prepare。

❺　解析：考查名词的复数形式，kind“种类”是可数名词，表示“不同的种类”，different后接其复数形式。

❻　解析：考查动词的用法，a chance to do sth.“做某事的机会”，to为动词不定式，后接动词原形，因此使用experience。

❼　解析：考查定语从句引导词，考查非限制性定语从句的引导词，使用which。

❽　解析：考查固定搭配，表达“与某人相处融洽”使用动词短语get along well with sb.，因此good改为well。

❾　解析：考查连词的用法，前后句子为转折的关系，and为并列的关系，因此改为but。

　解析：考查动名词形式，此处and连接两个并列的结构，by后接动名词，因此learn使用其动名词形式learning。

Unit 5 Canada-“The True North”

一、阅读理解

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。

Nowadays，especially in China，everything seems to favor social intercourse，such as gatherings of friends，KTV，group travel，dining together，playing cards and mahjong，plus the Chinese­style“street­crossing group”. Back home，discussions can still be boisterously carried on within the“circle of friends”of WeChat.

However，these scenes cannot always ease a sense of loneliness.Zhu Ziqing，a well­known professor of Tsinghua University，sighed with emotion：“My loneliness increases as the scene becomes much busier.”One popular song today is also called“A lonely man in crowds”．Actually，engaging in social intercourse requires ability，while being alone involves the whole character.

These days，it is not easy to calm down totally and return to one's true self.Willpower，intellect and discipline are required.Einstein said：“It is not your working time but your spare time that determines the possibility of whether you will be successful or not.”The“spare time”he referred to could be taken as “spending time by yourself”．

Lonely life could be either dull，boring and tasteless or abundant，interesting and colorful，depending on one's quality, ambition and inspiration.

Just as the body constantly requires energy，the mind and soul also demand unceasing inputs.However，information，to be processed and integrated(合并)into knowledge, thoughts and feelings，instead of bustle(忙碌)，seems to be the right condition.Successful careers in all walks of life worldwide have proved that“the soul grows in peace and talent is nurtured in loneliness”．In a sense，it may be reasonable to say that “Happiness tends to be shallow while loneliness involves profundity”．

Man，in fact，needs loneliness more than happy time，and only abundant loneliness can produce quality happiness.

1．Which of the following can replace the underlined word “boisterously”in Paragraph 1?

A．surprisingly B．sadly

C．busily D．peacefully

2．What can we infer from the second paragraph?

A．Being alone makes people depressed.

B．Social intercourse improves our happiness.

C．One may feel lonely even when surrounded by people.

D．We should attend social intercourse to decrease our loneliness.

3．What can we know from Einstein's words?

A．You should be successful if you spend all your time by yourself.

B．You should exercise more if you want to keep your minds healthy.

C．You will not become successful if you join in more social intercourse.

D．You will be more successful if you can make your lonely time meaningful.

4．Which may be the best title for this passage?

A．Live on Your Own

B．Happiness and Loneliness

C．The Secret of Success

D．Practice Your Social Ability

【解题导语】本文主要讨论了孤独和幸福之间的关系。

【难句分析】Einstein said：“It is not your working time but your spare time that determines the possibility of whether you will be successful or not.”

分析：本句是一个复合句。It is...that...是强调句型，对your spare time进行强调；whether引导宾语从句。

译文：爱因斯坦说：“不是你的工作时间，而是你的业余时间决定了你是否能够成功。”

1．C　考查词义猜测。根据第一段第一句“Nowadays, especially in China，everything seems to favor social intercourse，such as gatherings of friends，KTV，group travel，dining together，playing cards and mahjong，plus the Chinese­style‘street­crossing group’”及画线词所在句可推知，中国人喜欢社交，即使回到家也会继续忙着在朋友圈里讨论，故选C。

2．C　考查推理判断。根据第二段第二句中的“My loneliness increases as the scene becomes much busier”和第三句可推知，人们有可能在热闹的人群中反而更加孤独，故选C。A项错在孤独会让人抑郁，第二段并没有提到；B项错在社交活动能够提高我们的幸福感，这与文章中清华大学教授说的话不符；D项错在我们应该参加社交活动以减少我们的孤独，这与第二段第一句“However, these scenes cannot always ease a sense of loneliness”相悖，故排除。

3．D　考查推理判断。根据第四段“Lonely life could be either dull, boring and tasteless or abundant，interesting and colorful，depending on one's quality, ambition and inspiration”并结合爱因斯坦所说的话可推知，充分利用孤独的时间，不断提高自我，这样成功的几率会更大，故选D。A项错在如果你把所有时间用来独处，你会成功，这与第三段最后一句“The‘spare time’he referred to could be taken as‘spending time by yourself’”不符；B项错在如果你想思想健康就要多锻炼，文章并没有提到；C项错在如果你参加更多的社交活动，你就不会成功，文章中没有提到，故排除。

4．B　考查标题判断。根据最后一段“Man，in fact，needs loneliness more than happy time，and only abundant loneliness can produce quality happiness”并结合全文的整体内容可推知，本文主要讲的是孤独和幸福之间的关系，故选B。

二、单句语法填空

1．We choose this hotel because the price for a night here is down to $20, half of ________it used to charge.

答案：what　分析句子结构可知，本句的“half of ________ it used to charge”在句中作$20的同位语，由此可知这里要用what引导名词性从句，作介词of的宾语，同时what在宾语从句中又作charge的宾语，因此填what。

2．My grandfather's collection of paintings can leave a deep ________(impress) on all of you.

答案：impression　leave a deep impression on sb. “给某人留下深刻印象”。

3．They built themselves large villas (别墅) in the wooded ________(surround) of the town.

答案：surroundings　此处surroundings为名词，意为“环境”。

4．Little babies are ________(tradition) expected to imitate their fathers.

答案：traditionally　此处副词traditionally修饰expected to imitate。

5．The young woman grew up in a ____________(wealth) family.

答案：wealthy　形容词wealthy “富裕的”修饰名词family。

6．Children are usually ________(terrify) when alone in the dark.

答案：terrified　形容词terrified “感到害怕的”，在句中作表语。

7．Nancy's first reaction to the news was a strange ________(mix) of joy and anger.

答案：mixture　a mixture of ... “……的混合体”。

8．The faces of four famous American presidents on Mount Rushmore can be seen at a ________(distant) of 60 miles.

答案：distance　at a distance of 60 miles “在60英里外”。

9．After a long wait, some of them finally get to stay and settle ________ , while others have to pack up and leave.

答案：down　settle down 为固定短语，在本句中意为“定居”。

10．Tom managed ________(set) aside a few dollars of his wages each week to buy a computer.

答案：to set　manage to do sth. “设法做成某事”。

三、完形填空。

阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可能填入空白处的最佳选项。

【解题导语】作者因一件小事和父亲在大街上争吵，致使自己颜面尽失，于是下定决心不再与父亲说话。但随着岁月的流逝，作者意识到是愤怒让自己忘记了自己最爱的人为自己所做的一切，于是逐渐改变了自己对父亲的态度。

1．B　根据语境可知，作者与父亲是在去叔叔家的路上。on the way to...意为“在去……的路上”，符合语境。故选B项。

2．D　该句中while表示对比，意为“然而”。此处是说作者和父亲走得比较匆忙，而街上的其他人走得比较悠闲，边走边开心地(enjoyably)聊着天。故选D项。perfectly意为“完美地”；eagerly意为“急切地”；anxiously意为“焦虑地”。

3．B　从下文的I was still left behind可知，父亲走得很快，作者试图赶上他，但是仍然被落在了后面。catch up with意为“赶上”，符合语境。故选B项。make fun of意为“取笑”；make way for意为“给……让路”；get rid of意为“摆脱……；除去……”。

4．A　根据第二段开头的Why do you walk so fast？可知，此处指作者不知道为什么父亲走(walked)得那么快。故选A项。

5．C　根据空后的completely with sweat可知，由于走得太快，作者气喘吁吁、汗流浃背。lose one's breath意为“喘不过气来”，符合语境。故选C项。temper意为“脾气”；confidence意为“信心”；balance意为“平衡”。

6．C　根据上文中的I began to be angry at him可知，作者对父亲很生气，认为他根本不考虑作者的感受(feelings)。故选C项。belief意为“信念”；behavior意为“行为；举止”；request意为“请求；要求”。

7．D　上文提到作者很生气，所以说话的声音应该是很大的。根据第8空后的so loudly也可知答案。故选D项。calmly意为“平静地”； frequently意为“频繁地”；softly意为“温柔地”。

8．D　根据下文的In fact，I deliberately spoke loudly and...可知，此处指父亲埋怨作者说话声音大。故选D项。

9．A　作者责怪父亲走太快，自己跟不上，因此，此处指作者认为这都是父亲的过错(fault)。故选A项。cruelty意为“残忍”；origin意为“起源”；business意为“事情；商业”。

10．C　作者在埋怨父亲，而此时父亲也非常生气。因此，父亲在说作者总是责备(blame)别人。故选C项。enjoy意为“喜欢”；admire意为“欣赏”；abuse意为“虐待；滥用”。

11．D　根据下文Whatever he said，I quickly answered back.At that time, I was like a wild beast，losing my temper.可知，作者大发脾气，与父亲在大街上吵了起来，所以选quarreled，意为“争吵”。fight意为“打架”；bargain意为“讨价还价”；consult意为“咨询”。

12．C　根据空后的I could feel my face burning可知，和父亲吵架引来很多路人驻足观看，作者感觉自己的脸滚烫，因此可推断，作者感到羞愧(ashamed)。alarmed意为“担忧的；恐慌的”；afraid意为“害怕的”；amazed意为“惊奇的”。

13．B　由空后的made me lose face可知，作者觉得很丢人，因为看到路人在嘲笑她。laugh at意为“嘲笑”，符合语境。故选B项。ask for意为“请求；要求”；wait for意为“等待”；aim at意为“针对；以……为目标”。

14．A　句意为：我摸了摸我的脸，怒视着他。touched和glared是作者先后做的两个并列的动作，所以用and连接。

15．A　文中反复提到angry，通过对与父亲吵架的描述可知，此处指生气能让人忘记你所爱的人为你做的一切。故选A项。

16．B　设空后的I were not his daughter为虚拟语气，作者因怒生恨，吵架后不与父亲说话，就好像自己不是父亲的女儿似的。as if意为“好像”，符合语境。in case意为“以防”；unless意为“除非”；after意为“在……之后”。

17．C　父亲每次打电话时，作者总是抱怨太忙。busy意为“忙碌的”，符合语境。故选C项。wrong意为“错误的”；crazy意为“疯狂的”；innocent意为“无辜的”。

18．B　眼泪应该是从脸上流下来，所以选face。句意为：但是，当我们见面时，父亲那饱经沧桑的脸上流下的泪水使我感到内疚。

19．D　根据空后的I realized that I should not hate him可知，作者越来越理解父亲，认识到不应该再恨父亲，此处强调的是一个心理逐渐变化的过程。gradually意为“慢慢地；逐渐地”，符合语境。故选D项。naturally意为“自然地”occasionally意为“偶然”；obviously意为“明显地”。

20．A　尽管有时候父母会做错事，但是他们希望我们能更好。此处指可能会做错事，所以选A项。

四、单句改错

1．I caught the sight of an old friend of mine while I was waiting for the bus.

_____________________________________________________

答案：去掉sight前的the　catch sight of “看见；瞥见”，为固定短语。

2．With water is on all sides, the local people have to go out by boat.

_____________________________________________________

答案：去掉is　逗号后没有连接词，故“With water on all sides”是with的独立主格结构。

3．Rather than riding on a crowded bus in the morning, I always prefer to ride a bicycle.

_____________________________________________________

答案：riding→ride　prefer to do A rather than do B “比起做B更喜欢做A”。

4．After the typhoon, people found some tall trees,measured more than 10 meters, lying on the ground.

_____________________________________________________

答案：measured→measuring　measure 表示“某物的长度为……”时，是连系动词，在本句中，trees和measure为逻辑上的主谓关系，故用现在分词作后置定语。

5．So far as the eyes can see, nothing is to be seen but sand.

_____________________________________________________

答案：So→As　as far as the eyes can see “在目所能及的地方”。

五、短文改错

A survey (调查)has recently carried out among the students in our school about whether they would like it if their parents gave birth to a second child.Opinions vary wide from one to another.

Most of the students supported the idea.They think that it would be amazing to have a brother and a sister to keep the company and share secrets with.Besides，we believe a second child would bring lots of funs to the family.

However，the rest of the students interviewing hold the opposite view.To start with，raising one child is already a difficult thing and the parents would have to work twice as hard if they had a second child.What's more，they argue whether they have been accustomed to enjoy the whole love from their parents.

答案：

A survey (调查)has recently carried out among the students in our school about whether they would like it if their parents gave birth to a second child.Opinions vary from one to another.

❶　解析：A survey和carry out为被动关系，所以加been。

❷　解析：vary是动词，用副词修饰，所以用widely。

❸　解析：这是陈述事实，用一般现在时，将supported改为support。

❹　解析：and表示并列，此处句意为选择而非并列，故用or。

❺　解析：keep company陪伴，陪同。

❻　解析：由句意得此处主语为students，所以为they。

❼　 解析：fun为不可数名词，无复数形式所以将funs改为fun。

❽　 解析：student和interview为被动关系，所以用ed形式作定语。

❾　解析：whether引导的是让步状语从句，而文中是陈述一个事实所以将whether删掉或者改为that。
