1、第一单元检测(时间:60分钟满分:100分).阅读理解(共10小题;每小题2分,满分20分)AThey say there are three ways to experience the Grand Canyon:on foot,on mules (骡子) or by air.We chose the first.Up early,my husband and I and our three children couldnt wait to get started.We decided to walk along a lovely path named Bright Angel Trail.

2、As we set out,I was shocked at how narrow the path was.And I couldnt help noticing that the other tourists werent like us.They had heavy backpacks,water bottles,and hats.But as usual we were dressed.As the sun rose higher,Arizonas famous heat seemed to roast (烘烤) us.There was no shade and our legs w

3、ere aching.We decided to go back,with the girl on my back and the boys far behind.By the time we finally got back,our legs were like jelly.The next day,after wed had a long rest and a good breakfast,we were ready for another view of the Canyonby air.After our last walk,this would be the easiest thin

4、g in the world.We called to each other excitedly as the plane took off and circled around the Canyon.But the smiles on our faces disappeared as the pilot tossed (翻转) the plane around,pretending he was going to hit the ground.I shouted,“STOP!TAKE US BACK!” When we finally arrived back on land,once ag

5、ain our legs were like jelly.We hardly spoke as we drove back.As I said,there are three ways to view the Grand Canyon.We never tried the mules,but personally Id suggest a fourth:buy yourself a good magazine like National Geographic.That way,you can see the Canyon,without fear or tiredness.1Which of

6、the following is true according to the second paragraph?A.They made a careful preparation before the trip.B.The children were more joyful than their parents.C.Bright Angel Trail was not as lovely as they expected.D.The summer heat prevented them from enjoying the view.答案C解析细节理解题。由“.shocked at how na

7、rrow the path was.”可知,C项正确。2The underlined expression “our legs were like jelly” probably means “”.A.we were weakB.we were unhappyC.we were dissatisfiedD.we were disappointed答案A解析推理判断题。旅途出乎预料地艰难,“我们”又热又累,所以回来时必然是“软弱无力”。3Which of the following best describes their Canyon trip by air?A.It proved to be

8、 frightening.B.It was more comfortable.C.It turned out to be exciting.D.It made each of them tired.答案A解析推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“I shouted,STOP!TAKE US BACK!”可看出他们胆战心惊,frightening早已代替了comfortable。4We can infer from the passage that .A.experiencing the Canyon on mules would be the best wayB.one needs to dress

9、 less when visiting the Grand CanyonC.the writer was not serious when she made the suggestion in the last paragraphD.the whole family narrowly escaped the air accident答案C解析推理判断题。作者显然是在开玩笑地提出了第四种方式买本杂志舒舒服服地看大峡谷,不用担惊受怕。on mules 没有尝试无从谈起,排除A项。穿衣多少没有谈到,排除B项。从“.pretending he was going to hit the ground.I

10、 shouted.”可知,是驾驶员有意制造惊险,实际并无危险事故,排除D项。5What does the passage mainly talk about?A.The experience of the authors family in the Grand Canyon.B.Experiencing the Grand Canyon.C.Experiencing the Grand Canyon on mules.D.Experiencing the Grand Canyon on foot.答案A解析主旨大意题。综合全文可知,本文讲述了作者和家人旅游中的经历。B、D两项不准确,C项未实行

11、。BIt seems that some people go out of their way to get into trouble.Thats more or less what happened at the night when Nashville Police Officer Floyd Hyde was on duty.“I was on the way to a personal-injury accident in West Nashville.As I got onto Highway 40,blue lights and sirens (警笛) going,I fell i

12、n behind a gold Pontiac Firebird that suddenly seemed to take off quickly down the highway.The driver somehow panicked at the sight of me.He was going more than a hundred miles an hour and began passing cars on the shoulder.”But Hyde couldnt go after him.Taking care of injured people is always more

13、important than worrying about speeders,so the officer had to stay on his way to the accident.But he did try to keep the Firebird in sight as he drove,hoping another nearby unit would be able to step in and stop the speeding car.As it turned out,keeping the Firebird in sight was not that difficult.Ev

14、ery turn the Pontiac made was the very turn the officer needed to the accident scene.Hyde followed the Pontiac all the way to his destination.At that point he found another unit had already arrived at the accident scene.His help wasnt needed.Now he was free to try to stop the driver of the Firebird,

15、who by this time had developed something new to panic about.“Just about that time,” Hyde says,“I saw fire coming out from under that car,with blue smoke and oil going everywhere.Hed blown his engine.Now he had to stop.”“After I arrested him,I asked him why he was running.He told me he didnt have a d

16、rivers license.”That accident cost the driver of the Firebird plentya thousand dollars for the new enginenot to mention the charges for driving without a license,attempting to run away,and dangerous driving.6The meaning of “panicked” in Paragraph 2 is related to “”.A.shamedB.hatedC.angeredD.feared答案

17、D解析词义猜测题。由上下文得知,警察驾驶着警车,鸣着警笛。那位没有驾驶执照的司机看到这种情景时自然会“恐慌”。7Why did the driver of the Firebird suddenly speed down the highway?A.Because he was racing with another driver on the road.B.Because he realized he had to hurry to the accident scene.C.Because he thought the police officer wanted to stop him.D.

18、Because he wanted to overtake other cars on the shoulder.答案C解析推理判断题。本题与上题密切相关,该司机因惧怕警察,以为警察要让他停车接受检查所以才加速逃避。8Which of the following statements is true?A.Someone else was taking care of the injured person.B.The Pontiac reached its destination at the accident scene.C.Hyde knew where he was going by fo

19、llowing the right ear.D.The policeman was running after a speeder on Highway 40.答案A解析推理判断题。由文章第四段第二、三两句话“At that point he found another unit had already arrived at the accident scene.His help wasnt needed.”可明显看出A项正确。9The driver of the Firebird.A.took a wrong turn on the wayB.had some trouble with hi

20、s carC.was stopped by the police officerD.paid for the expenses of the accident答案B解析细节理解题。由文章倒数第三段看出,这位司机因高速行驶,致使发动机爆裂所以无法继续开动,并非由警察拦下。10What is probably the best title for the article?A.Losing His Way!B.Going My Way!C.Fun All the Way!D.Help on the Way!答案B解析主旨大意题。通读全文看出,警官无意中逮住一个无证驾驶的司机。go ones way可

21、理解为违规者见到警察仍我行我素超速的意思。.完形填空(共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)Around the world more and more people are 11 dangerous sports and activities.Of course there have always been people who have 12 adventurethose who have climbed the 13 mountains,explored unknown parts of the world or 14 in small boats across the greates

22、t oceans.Now,however,there are people who look for an immediate pleasure from a 15 activity which may only last a few minutes or even 16.I would consider bungee jumping to be a good example of such an activity.You 17 from a high place about 200 metres above the ground with an elastic rope 18 to your

23、 ankles.You 19 at up to 150 kilometres an hour until the rope stops you from 20 the ground.It is said that 2 million people around the world have now 21 bungee jumping.Other activities,22 most people would say are as dangerous as bungee jumping,23 jumping from tall buildings and 24 into the sea from

24、 the top of high rocks.Why do people take part in such activities as these?Some psychologists (心理学家) suggest that it is because life in 25 societies has become safe and boring.Not very long ago,peoples lives were constantly under 26.They had to go out and hunt for 27,and life was a continuous battle

25、 for survival.Nowadays,according to many people,life offers 28 excitement.They live and work in relatively safe conditions;they buy food in shops;and there are doctors and hospitals to 29 them if they become ill.The answer for some of these people is to 30 danger in activities such as bungee jumping

26、.11A.escaping fromB.taking part inC.going inD.taking in答案B解析从本段后面所举的例子来看,此处说的是越来越多的人正参加各种危险的运动。“参加”也可用go in for来表达,故C项不对。12A.looked upB.looked intoC.looked forD.looked around答案C解析上句说越来越多的人参加各种危险的运动,因此可推测此处是说“一直也不乏有人寻求冒险”。13A.lowestB.highestC.beautifulD.wild答案B解析从破折号来看,下文是通过举例来说明有人参加冒险活动。根据所举的几个例子来看,

27、此处选highest 才能与“冒险”这个主题相吻合,并与 “explored unknown parts of the world” 等语意一致。14A.sailedB.swamC.jumpedD.crossed答案A解析从下面的 “in small boats across the greatest oceans” 可推测,此处说的应是“乘小船在大洋上航行”,故选用 sail。15A.safeB.excitedC.funnyD.dangerous答案D解析上文谈论的是危险运动,且下文所举的例子“bungee jumping”也是危险运动,故用 dangerous。16A.yearsB.sec

28、ondsC.hoursD.days答案B解析从前面的“who look for an immediate pleasure”及“which may only last a few minutes or even.”等可推测,此处说的是这项运动持续时间短,显然 hours,days 和 years 不合语境。17A.jumpB.runC.walkD.cross答案A解析从这一段开始介绍蹦极运动。根据下文介绍的 “from a high place about 200 metres above the ground” 来看,该运动是从离地面大约 200米处往下跳。18A.followedB.tie

29、dC.broughtD.took答案B解析在往下跳时,运动员的脚踝要系在绳子上,所以用 tied。19A.goB.runC.fallD.fly答案C解析从高处跳起,然后坠落下去,所以用 fall。20A.fallingB.runningC.flyingD.hitting答案D解析此处介绍的是系绳子的目的不让你撞到地上。21A.triedB.looked forC.foundD.studied答案A解析由常理推测,世界上有很多人都已经尝试过蹦极这项运动。22A.thatB.whichC.itD.what答案B解析此处应用 which 引导非限制性定语从句,which 指代前面提到的 other

30、activities。23A.holdB.includeC.findD.contain答案B解析此处介绍了其他两种运动:一是从大楼上往下跳,二是从高的岩石上往海面跳。故此处应用 include。24A.swimmingB.runningC.divingD.sailing答案C解析从下文的 into the sea 可看出是“跳水”,故用 diving。25A.oldB.modernC.pastD.formal答案B解析从上下文来看,本文所介绍的运动是新兴的一项运动,也就是现代人所从事的运动,由此可推断此处选 modern,即说明“现代社会人们的生活很安全、枯燥”,故许多人从事这项运动来寻找刺激

31、。26A.safetyB.imperfectionC.dangerD.perfection答案C解析前面说现在人们生活舒适而乏味,与此相对照,此处说的是过去人们常处于危险中,要外出狩猎,故此处应选 danger。27A.animalsB.foodC.waterD.dangers答案B解析从 “and life was a continuous battle for survival”等来看,此处说的是人们外出“寻找食物”,故用 food。28A.fewB.littleC.muchD.many答案B解析从后文可知,“现在人们生活、工作在相对安全的环境下”,与狩猎相比,现代人的生活少了刺激,故用

32、little。29A.look atB.look intoC.look forD.look after答案D解析从“if they become ill”可知,此处说的是“生病时有大夫等来照看他们”,故用 look after。30A.look forB.look afterC.exploreD.find答案A解析此句是总结全文的话。从整篇文章来看,此处说的是人们在刺激的运动中寻找危险。.语篇填空(共10小题;每小题1.5分,满分15分)阅读下列材料,掌握其大意,并根据上下文填写空白处所需的内容(1个单词)或所提供单词的正确形式。As a boy 31.(grow) up in India,I
