Unit 2Let's talk teens.阅读理解ASeveral weeks ago, I pulled an old road map out of the glove box and passed it to my children. They had never seen the province of Ontario laid out like that before. They stared at the map, asking about all the towns, parks, and other landmarks we'd visited, and I pointed them out on the map.Digital maps and GPS are modern wonders that have gotten me out of many confusing places, but paper maps still have a role to play in our lives. Most of us adults learned to read them out of necessity, but it's up to us to pass on that skill to children whose need may not be so obvious, but who still will benefit from it.As Trevor Muir wrote in an article on this topic, “When kids learn how to create and use paper maps, they are doing more than just learning how to get around. They are actually developing a fundamental skill that they will use for the rest of their lives. Map skills still belong in today's classroom.”As a child, I had National Geographic Maps taped to my bedroom walls. This aroused my curiosity and imagination about those places and thus made me eager to remember my geography and history lessons because they were tied to places I'd “seen”. Even now as a mother of four, I've also spared time to travel to many of the countries whose maps I studied as a child.Additionally, in this fastchanging world, unexpected events can rapidly influence one's usual way of life. When GPS satellites or Internet connections are affected, this oldfashioned skill can get you out of a mess without requiring a smartphone. Last but not least, paper maps arouse big picture thinking, showing kids that there's a much bigger world out there and helping to direct them within it.So, now is a good time to pull out those dusty old maps and lay them on the kitchen table.1How did the children react when they were given the paper map?AThey showed great curiosity.BThey seemed totally confused.CThey found it less convenient than GPS.DThey refused to read it without hesitation.2What is Trevor Muir's attitude towards teaching paper map skill for kids?ANeutral. BNegative.CDoubtful. DSupportive.3Which of the following will the author agree with?APaper maps are already out of date.BInternet connections are always reliable.CPaper maps provide kids with a grand vision.DGPS will sooner or later replace paper maps.4Which would be the best title for the text?ATime to Teach Kids to Read Paper MapsBHow to Teach Kids to Survive in the WildCHow to Teach Kids to Recognize Strange PlacesDTime to Encourage Kids to Explore a Real WorldBOpenair jazz, locallygrown vegetables, Focaccia bread, yogoat cheese, and Narcan training all competed against a rainstorm last Tuesday at Westside Farmers Market's annual College Night.And the vendors (商贩) held out pretty well. Even as the raindrops intensified, folks kept exploring the tables stationed in the parking lot of St. Monica Church. Among the crowd were a number of college students, mostly from the University of Rochester, likely brought in by the College Night awards being offered a fivedollar token (购物券), a handbag, and a prize raffle entry, all free of charge.Now in its 15th year, Westside volunteer Jackie Farrell said the market partners merely with local farms, businesses, and community groups to populate its tables. “Our mission really is to serve the people in the community, getting them health and nutrition information, and connecting them to the farmers who grow the produce,” Farrell said, “Everything has to be local. It's a produceronly market, so you have to grow or produce whatever you're going to sell here.” Those producers had diverse offerings. Vegetables, of course, were abundant but sellers also pushed cheeses, spreads, bread, prepared pasta dishes, and much more.The community groups offering information were diverse too. Recovery All Ways, a local nonprofit with a stated “mission to support anyone affected by substance use disorder” handed out Narcan and trained people in its use. Their station was next to a Moms Demand Action tent, where staffers provided information on physical safety. SNAPEd nutrition and benefits educators also ran a table.The activities of the stations were scored by live music. The University's Midnight Ramblers performed, and a local jazz band played away as the rain showers started rolling in.Farrell hoped that the College Night promotion would help make students more comfortable crossing the bridge into the Rochester community. “We love college students, and we keep encouraging them that all they have to do is go across the bridge.”5What attracted college students to the College Night?AFree prizes.BScenery in the rain.CInteresting books.DFeatured goods.6What is the characteristic of Westside Farmers Market?AIt is managed by farmers themselves.BIts visitors are mostly university students.CIts offerings are locally grown or prepared.D.Farmers provide more vegetables than corn.7Which of the following can best describe the College Night?ACrowded and chaotic.BBusy and festive.CLuxurious and splendid.DRomantic and peaceful.8What might be a suitable title for the text?A.Westside Farmers Market Is Flowering RapidlyB.College Night Channels Products to CommunityC.College Night Bridges University and CommunityD.Westside Farmers Market Is Expanding Nationwide答题区题号12345678答案.阅读七选五Your first day of school can be a nervous time.
