Spilich put young non-smokers, active smokers and smokers deprived(被剥夺)of cigarettes through a series of tests. In the first test, each subject sat before a computer screen and pressed a key as soon as he or she recognized a certain letter among a grouping of 96. In this simple test, smokers, deprived smokers and non-smokers performed equally well. The next test was more difficult, requiring all to scan(扫描) groups of 20 letters and find the one of the letters changed into a different one. Non-smokers were faster, but under the stimulation(刺激)of nicotine, active smokers were faster than deprived smokers. In the third test of short-term memory, non-smokers made the fewest mistakes, but deprived smokers made fewer mistakes than active smokers. The fourth test required people to read a passage, then answer questions about it. Non-smokers remembered 19 percent more of the most important information than active smokers, and deprived smokers did better than those who had smoked a cigarette just before testing. Active smokers were likely not only to have poorer memories but also had trouble separating important information from unimportant details. “As our tests became more difficult，” says Spilich, “non-smokers performed better than smokers by far.” he says, “Smokers might perform adequately(准确)at many jobs until they got very difficult. A smoking airline pilot could fly adequately if no problems arose, but if something went wrong, smoking might damage his mental capacity(思维能力)．” 1. Smokers usually think that smoking ________. A. helps them to be less nervous B. helps them to do better work C. helps them to think and act quickly D. does some good to their health 2. George Spilich's experiment was organized in such a way as to ________. A. force the subjects to separate major information from minor details B. check the effectiveness of nicotine on smokers C. put the subjects through increasing difficult test D. make a written and formal record of the answers of the subjects 3. Which fact does this passage lead us to believe? A. Active smokers generally performed better than deprived smokers. B. Active smokers answered more quickly than the other subjects. C. Deprived smokers gave the slowest answers to the various tasks. D. Non-smokers were not better than other subjects in performing simple tasks. 4. We can infer from the last paragraph that ________. A. smokers should not expect to become airline pilots B. smokers may prove unequal to dealing with emergency (紧急) cases C. no airline pilots smoke during flights D. smoking in emergency cases causes mental illness B字数：292&完成时间：6分钟&难度：★★Danielle Steel, America's sweetheart, is one of the hardest working woman in the book business.

课后能力测评（一）
Ⅰ. 1. 解析：选C。根据上文的retire可知，他想离开自己从事的工作，故选leave。2. 解析：选A。leisurely悠闲的，慢悠悠的；lonely孤独的；orderly有秩序的，有条理的；friendly友好的。根据常识可知，人们退休了以后，生活常常是悠闲的，故选A项。3. 解析：选C。退休了以后，老人可以更好的享受家庭的乐趣。4. 解析：选B。go off开火；爆炸；（电灯等）熄灭；get by维持生计，设法过活；pass on转交，递给；work away连续不停地工作。根据前面的extended family和miss the paycheck可推知，老人生活上悠闲，但没有了工资，生活可能不如以前宽松，但他们能设法维持，故选B项。5. 解析：选D。根据上文retire和下文的his good worker可知，作为老板，自己的好员工要走了，自然惋惜，故选D项。6. 解析：选A。从下文得知，老木匠的最后一座房子造的很不好，是因为他不用心。所以此处表示转折，but表示转折。句意为：他虽然答应了，但并不用心工作。while是并列连词，表示前后对比。7. 解析：选B。根据前文的bad workmanship和下文可知，老木匠用的建筑材料是劣质的，故inferior正确。8. 解析：选D。根据前文的“...go and asked if he could build just one more house...”可知，这是老木匠为老板建造的最后一座房子，是他一生事业的结束，故选D。9. 解析：选C。作为老板，自己让人建设的房子完工了，自然要来查看一下。10. 解析：选C。从下文的“If he had only known he was building his own house”可以看出，老板把刚刚建设的房子作为礼物（gift）送给了老木匠，故应该给他房门钥匙。11. 解析：选A。根据上下文可知，这是老板给老木匠的礼物，以表示感谢。12. 解析：选B。根据上文的shock和下句“If he had only known he was building his own house, he would have done it all so differently”可知，老木匠为自己做的蠢事感到羞耻和后悔，故选shame。13. 解析：选A。so it is with sb.意为“……也如此”，符合句意。14. 解析：选D。根据文意，作者在向我们阐述一个道理：我们的生活也像老木匠建房子一样，没有投入全身心。因此，D项符合文意。15. 解析：选A。根据上下文可知，开始我们没有觉察，但后来当我们认识到自己的愚蠢行为时，为时已晚。所以，此处选择realize。16. 解析：选B。根据上文“If we could do it over, we would do it much differently”可知。我们虽认识到错误，但有些事情是无法重新再做一遍的。step forward自告奋勇；go back回到；重新再来；come out（太阳、星星等）出现；look around环视、环顾。17. 解析：选C。根据下文可知，作者在引用某人（曾经说过）的话，所以用副词once最符合语境。其他选项与文意不符。18. 解析：选A。根据上文可知，老木匠既有经验，技艺也高超，但因为态度不端正结果犯了大错。因此，一个人做事的态度决定结果，故选attitude。19. 解析：选D。make a choice/choices意为“做出选择”。20. 解析：选B。根据最后一段和上文中的therefore可知，作者是在告诫读者，我们既然明白了这个道理，那么“建造自己的房子时”就明智些吧！故B项最佳。Ⅱ. 1. 解析：选B。细节理解题。从第一段“...as many smokers say，smoking helps them to ‘think and fix their attention on their work’”可知答案。2. 解析：选C。主旨大意题。由文意可知，他首先对实验者进行“recognized a certain letter among a grouping of 96”，然后“The next test was more difficult, requiring all to scan groups of 20 letters and find the one of the letters changed into a different one, In the third test of shortterm memory”,而在第四次他“required people to read a passage, then answer questions about it”,由此可知，C项正确。3. 解析：选D。细节理解题。从第一个测试中可以得出这样的结论。4. 解析：选B。推理判断题。从文章最后一句“A smoking airline pilot could fly adequately if no problems arose, but if something went wrong, smoking might damage his mental capacity”可知，答案选B。5. 解析：选A。细节理解题。第一段第二句“不像其他多产作者一次只写一本书，她一次能写五本”这句话交代了她与其他作者之不同之处。6. 解析：选C。细节理解题。第二段中间部分介绍了关于一套为孩子们写的Max and Martha故事书，目的是帮助他们解决现实生活中有关死，新的生命及新学校的问题，说明读了此书就该知道家里一旦有新的生命诞生该如何去做。7. 解析：选C。细节理解题。由第二段“Her 1998 book about the death... it came out”可知答案。她的28部书已拍成电影并非电视剧；her picture books for children而非young men；D项内容与第二段最后一句不相符。8. 解析：选B。推理判断题。最后一段中交代Danielle Steel认为她的读者是最重要的资源，她一直和他们通过e-mail保持联系，可见她非常重视她的读者。9. 解析：选D。词义猜测题。根据文章最后两句话意思可推知，选D。&&必修5课后能力测评(二)　　　　 　　　　　　 　　　　　　　 　　Ⅰ.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。A字数：348&完成时间：6分钟&难度：★★A Tour City―PompeiiEvery year thousands of tourists visit Pompeii, Italy. They see the sights that Pompeii is famous for its stadium(运动场) and theatres, its shops and restaurants. The tourists do not, however, see Pompeii's people. They do not see them because Pompeii has no people. No one has lived in Pompeii for almost 2,000 years.Once, Pompeii was a busy city of 22,000 people. It lay at the foot of Mount Vesuvius, a grass-covered volcano(火山). Mount Vesuvius had not erupted(喷发)for centuries, so the people of Pompeii felt safe. But they were not. In August of AD 79, Mount Vesuvius erupted. The entire top of the mountain exploded,_and a huge black cloud rose into the air. Soon stones and hot ash began to fall on Pompeii. When the eruption ended two days later, Pompeii was buried under 20 feet of stones and ashes. Almost all of its people were dead. For centuries, Pompeii lay buried under stone and ash. Then, in the year 1861, an Italian scientist named Ginseppe began to uncover Pompeii. Slowly, carefully, Ginseppe and his men dug. The city looked almost the same as it had looked in AD 79. There were streets and fountains, houses and shops. There was a stadium with 20,000 seats. Perhaps the most important of all, there were everyday objects, which tell us a great deal about the people who lived in Pompeii. Many glasses and jars had some dark blue colour in the bottom, so we know that the people of Pompeii liked wine. They liked bread too. Metal bread pans were in every bakery. In one bakery there were 81 round, flat loaves of bread―a type of bread that is still sold in Italy today. Tiny boxes filled with a dark, shiny power tell us that women liked to wear eye-makeup. Ginseppe has died, but his work continues. One-fourth has not been uncovered yet. Scientists are still digging, still making discoveries that draw the tourists to Pompeii. 1. Why do large numbers of people come to Pompeii each year?A. To visit the volcano.B. To shop and eat there. C. To watch sports and plays.D. To see how Pompeiians lived. 2. Why had so many people remained by volcanic Mount Vesuvius?A. The city nearly offered all kinds of fun. B. The area produced the finest wine in Italy. C. Few people expected the volcano to erupt again. D. The mountain was beautiful and covered with grass. 3. Why did the city uncovered look almost the same as it had looked in AD 79?A. Because Ginseppe and his men dug it slowly and carefully. B. Because the city was buried alive and remained untouched. C. Because scientists successfully rebuilt the city with everyday objects. D. Because nobody had lived in the city ever since the volcano erupted. 4. What's the meaning of the underlined word “exploded” in the third paragraph?A. 爆发& B. 震动& C. 倒塌& D. 爆裂5. What do we know about the Pompeiians who lived 2,000 years ago?A. They lived more or less the same as Italians now do. B. They liked women wearing all kinds of makeup. C. They enjoyed a lazy life with drinking and eating. D. They went back to Pompeii after the eruption in AD 79. B字数：321&完成时间：15分钟&难度：★★ISLANDS in the world are famous for different things. But Hawaii is special for its variety of features. Beautiful sandy beaches, active volcanoes, a great canyon and special history and culture add up to create its famously romantic atmosphere.

课后能力测评（二）
Ⅰ. 1. 解析：选D。推理判断题。通读全文可知，Pompeii是一座被火山吞没的城市。由于火山突然喷发，人们来不及逃避，而保留了当时人们生活的遗迹。所以参观者来的目的是看一看Pompeiians当时是如何生活的。2. 解析：选C。细节理解题。由第二段后两句“Mount Vesuvius had not erupted for centuries, so the people of Pompeii felt safe. But they were not”可知，几乎没有人想到火山会重新喷发。3. 解析：选B。细节理解题。从第二、三段可知，Pompeii位于Mount Vesuvis脚下，Mount Vesuvis 是一座火山，但有多个世纪没有喷发了。人们以为它不会再喷发，但是，在公元79年8月火山突然喷发，整个城市被埋葬在石头和灰尘下。由于火山突然喷发，人们在毫无思想准备的情况下被埋葬了，所以保留了当时全部的情景。4. 解析：选D。词义猜测题。从下文“a huge black cloud rose into the air”可推知整个山顶“爆裂”了。5. 解析：选A。推理判断题。从倒数第二段所述参观者所看到2，000年前Pomeiians生活的情景可以得出结论，他们当时的生活状况或多或少和现在的意大利人生活的状况相同。6. 解析：选B。细节理解题。由第二段第一句“Formed by volcanoes at the bottom of the sea”可知，选B。7. 解析：选C。推理判断题。从文中“Chinese arrived in the islands as early as the late 18th century”可知，d排在第一位，因此排除B，D两项。从第四段可知，日本空军在1941袭击珍珠港，从短文倒数第四段可知，夏威夷开始因为浪漫而出名是在二十世纪六十年代。故可推断出选C。8. 解析：选A。细节理解题。由第六段第二句“Although nowadays English is the official language of Hawaii...”可知，选A。9. 解析：选D。细节理解题。由文中第五段“About 1,000 years ago the islands were settled by Polynesians...”可知，选D。10. 解析：选D。主旨大意题。全文既讲了夏威夷的地理概况，又讲了它的历史，故D项为最佳答案。Ⅱ. 1-5.

We can only make guesses, of course, but we can be sure that he will be different from what he is today. For man is slowly changing all the time.Let us take an obvious example. Man, even five hundred years ago, was shorter than he is today. Now, on average, men are about three inches taller. Five hundred years is relatively short period of time, so we may assume that man will continue to grow taller. Again, in the modern world we use our brains a great deal. Even so, we still make use of only about 20% of the brain's capacity. As time goes on, however, we shall have to use our brains more and more, and eventually we shall need larger ones! This is likely to bring about a physical change to the head, in particular the forehead, will grow larger.Nowadays our eyes are in constant use. In fact, we use them so much that very often they become weaker and we have to wear glasses. But over very long period of time it is likely that man's eyes will grow stronger.On the other hand, we tend to make less use of our arms and legs. These, as a result, are likely to grow weaker. At the same time, however, our fingers will grow more sensitive because they are used a great deal in modern life.But what about hair? This will probably disappear from the body altogether in course of time because it does not serve a useful purpose any longer. In the future, then, both sexes are likely to be bald.Perhaps all this gives the impression that future man will not be a very attractive creature to look at! This may well be true. All the same, in spite of all these changes, future man will still have a lot in common with us. He will still be a human being, with thoughts and emotions similar to our own.1. The passage mainly tells us that ________.A. man's life will be different in the future&&B. future man will look quite different from usC. man is growing taller and uglier as time passesD. man's organs' functions will be on the wane2. What serves as the evidence that man is changing?A. Man has got stronger eyes now than he ever had. &B. Man's hair is getting thinner and thinner.C. Man's arms and legs have become lighter and weaker.D. Man has been growing taller over the past 500 years.3. The change in man's size of forehead is probably because ________. A. he makes use only 20% of the brain's capacityB. his brain has grown larger over the past centuriesC. the other 80% of his brain will grow in due timeD. he will use his brain more and more as time goes on4. What is true about a human being in the future?A. He is hairless because hair is no longer useful.B. He has smaller eyes and wears better glasses.C. His fingers grow weaker because he doesn't have to make use of them.D. He thinks and feels in different way.5. It is implied that ________.A. human beings will become less attractive in the futureB. less use of a bodily organ may lead to its degeneration&C. human beings hope for a change in the future lifeD. future life is always predictableB字数：320&完成时间：12分钟&难度：★★Let us suppose it is now about A．D.2060. Let's make believe it is about sixty years from now. Of course, things have changed and life is very different.Voyages to the moon are being made every day. It is as easy to take a holiday on the moon today as it was for the people in 1960 to take a holiday in Europe. At a number of scenic spots on the moon, many hotels have been built, the hotels are air-conditioned, naturally. So that everyone can enjoy the beautiful scenery on the moon. Every room has at least one picture window. Everything imaginable is provided for entertainment of young and old.What are people eating now? People are still eating food. They haven't yet started to take on their supply of energy directly as electrical current or as nuclear power. They may be some day. But many foods now come in pill form, and the food that goes into the pill continues to come mainly from green plants.Since there are several times as many people in the world today as there were a hundred years ago, most of our planet's surface has to be filled. The deserts are irrigated with water. Crops are no longer destroyed by pests. The harvest is always good.Farming, of course, is very highly developed. Very few people have to work on the farm. It is possible to run the farm by just pushing a few buttons now and then.People are now largely vegetarians. You see, as the number of people increased, the number of animals decreased. Therefore, the people have to be vegetarians and we are healthier in both our bodies and our minds, too, and we know the causes and cure of diseases and pain, and it is possible to get rid of disease. No one has to be ill any more.Such would be our life in 2060.6. What are the hotels on the moon used for in 2060?A. Scientific experiments.B. People who have no houses.C. Astronauts.D. Holiday people.7. Which of the following is WRONG?A. In the story, the population of the world has increased.B. Voyages to the moon are being made every day.C. A great number of people work on the farm.D. The food comes mainly from green plants.8. According to the passage, why are people largely vegetarians?A. Because most people like vegetables better.B. Because the number of people increased and the number of animals decreased.C. Because people think meat is unhealthy.D. Because there are no animals at all.9. According to the passage, what about the people's health in 2060?A. Because the people have to be vegetarians, they are very thin.B. The people have no illness.C. The doctor don't know how to treat the diseases and pain.D. The people are less healthier in our bodies than in our minds.10. When was the passage written?A. In about A．D. 2060.& &B. In about 1960.

It will be used to gather information about traffic patterns to help future urban planning, particularly for the World Expo in 2010.“The survey is to determine the city's daily and weekly traffic situations，” Zhang Yan, a senior engineer at the Shanghai Urban Planning and Design Research Institute, said yesterday. This is the third time the city has conducted a large-scale traffic survey. The other two surveys were conducted in 1986 and 1995.Officials will send questionnaires to pedestrians and drivers, record traffic jams in major areas, and analyze the information from electronic traffic signs.The Road Administrative Office will also survey traffic outside the Outer Ring Road, paying particular attention to vehicles entering or exiting the city.“With more vehicles from neighboring provinces, we have to find it out how many, when and for what purposes those vehicles are coming to the city，” said Dong Hui, a spokeswoman for the Road Administrative Office. Officials from her office will stop about half of the vehicles passing by 53 major venues (场所) tomorrow and ask drivers to fill out questionnaires about where they are coming from, where they are headed and whether their trip is for private or business purposes.1.

It sounds a bit like an air horn and you can hear it a lot during the 2010 World Cup.&The vuvuzela was originally made from a kudu horn and was traditionally used to summon people to gatherings. But the horn you see at soccer matches in South Africa today originated from a tin horn that became popular with South African soccer fans around 15 years ago. A sports company began to mass-produce a plastic version in the South Africa colours，and this is what you see (and hear)at every soccer match. Now it's become an official symbol of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa and more popular around the world.&The vuvuzela will be ubiquitous during the 2010 World Cup. There was a call for FIFA to ban the vuvizela during the Confederations Cup that took place in South Africa in June 2009，European journalists got into a tizzy(紧张)about the noise. The Guardian reported: “It sounds like extremely terrible.” But FIFA stood its ground，as Mr. Blatter，FIFA's president says “Vuvuzelas，drums and singing are part of Africa football culture. It is part of their celebration，it is part of their culture，so let them blow the vuvuzelas.”Adam Carnegie，a graphic artist from Cape Town，founded the Kelp Environmental Learning Project. The project employs local men and women to collect kelp，dry it and then hand paint colourful designs on it. The mission is simple. “We want to create jobs，make a noise，make people laugh，remind people to be in the moment.”Like most trumpets，getting any noise from a vuvuzela requires significant pursing of the lips and the ability to blow with force. Your cheeks will be zinging afterward. You can personalize your vuvuzela blowing, with a lot of practice，but generally it produces one big sound.6. Which of the following sentences can be used to fill in the blank in the first paragraph?A. It was chosen by FIFA as the unique musical instrument.B. It has been used at soccer matches for thousands of years.C. It is the choice of noise－maker for South African football fans.D. It is a traditional instrument South African soccer fans use to celebrate victory.7. The vuvuzela ________.A. is usually made of metalB. has a length of two and a half feetC. was first used in a local sports gameD. is one of the official symbols of the 2010 World Cup8. The underlined word “ubiquitous” in the 3rd paragraph probably means “________”．A. banned&&&&&& B. heard everywhereC. extremely expensive&&&& D. strictly limited9. Why did FIFA stand its ground on the issue of the vuvuzela?& A. Because the vuvuzela is typical of African football culture.& B. Because it is the host country's right to make their choice.& C. Because the vuvuzela will make the 2010 World Cup special.& D. Because more member countries support the use of the vuvuzela.10. What can we learn from the passage?A. It requires effort to get noise from vuvuzela.B. Vuvuzela will be banned after the 2010 World Cup because it is too noisy.& C. The Kelp Environmental Learning Project employs many people to sell vuvuzela.& D. Vuvuzela is too noisy for both the players and the audience.Ⅱ. 信息匹配&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& (中山市实验高中学年度高三年级12月月考)请阅读下列相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息。选项中有一项是多余选项。字数：686&完成时间：15分钟&难度：★★★A.

Was this in gunman cruelty? Was it lack of feeling about one's fellowman?“Not so，”say scientists John Barley and Bib Fatane. These men went beyond the headlines to research into the reasons why people didn't act. They found that a person has to go through two steps before he can help. First he has to notice that is an emergency(紧急情况). Suppose you see a middle-ged man fall to the side-walk. Is he having a heart attack? Is he in a coma(昏迷) from a headache? Or is he about to sleep off a drunk? Is the smoke coming into the room from a leak(漏洞)in the air conditioning? Is it “steam pipes”？Or is it really smoke from a fire? It's not always easy to tell if you are faced with a real emergency. Second, and more important, the person faced with an emergency must feel personally responsible(负责任的). He must feel that he must help, or the person won't get the help he needs.The researchers found that a lot depends on how many people are around. They had college students in to be “tested.” Some came alone. Some came with one or two others. And some came in large groups. The researchers started them off on the “tests.” Then they went into the next room. A curtain divided the “testing room” and the room into which they went. Soon the students heard a scream, the noise of bookshelves falling and a cry for help. All of this had been prerecorded on a tape recorder.Eight out of ten of the students taking the test alone acted to help. Of the students in pairs, only two out of ten helped. Of the students in groups, none helped.In other words, in a group, Americans often fail to act. They feel that others will act. They, themselves, needn't. They do not feel any direct responsibility.Are people bothered by situations where people are in trouble? Yes, scientists found that the people were shocked, they sweated, and they had trembling hands. They felt the other person's trouble. But they did not act. They were in a group. Their actions were shaped by the actions of those they were with.6. The purpose of this passage is ________.A. to explain why people fail to act in emergenciesB. to explain when people will act in emergenciesC. to explain what people will do in emergenciesD. to explain how people feel in emergencies7. Which of the following is NOT true?A. When a person tries to help others, he must be clear that there is a real emergency.B. When a person tries to help others, he should know whether they are worth his help.C. A person must take the full responsibility for the safety of those in emergencies if he wants to help.D. A person with a heart attack needs the most.8. The main reason why people fail to act when they stay together is that ________.A. they are afraid of emergenciesB. they are not willing to get themselves involvedC. others will act if they themselves hesitateD. they do not have any direct responsibility for those who need help9. The author suggests that ________.A. we shouldn't blame a person if he fails to act in emergenciesB. a person must feel guilty if he fails to helpC. people should be responsible for themselves in emergenciesD. when you are in trouble, people will help you anywayⅡ. 短文改错下面短文中有10处语言错误。请在有错误的地方增加、删除或修改某个单词。增加：在缺词处加一个漏字符号(∧)，并在其下面写上该加的词。删除：把多余的词用斜线(\)划掉。修改：在错的词下划一横线，并在该词下面写上修改后的词。注意：每处错误及其修改均仅限一词。字数：137&完成时间：8分钟&难度：★　Last night when Steven and I was having a walk in the street, we suddenly heard a painful cry for help under a tree nearby.

One possible version:I am willing to become a bachelor village official and I’d very much like to come back to my hometown to help with the economic development of the relatively poor villages. For one thing, I want to devote my body and soul to helping those in need in return for the help of the society. And I will apply what I have learnt to developing the poor villages. For another, I myself am from a poor village. I feel very sad whenever I see my parents and my fellow villagers struggling to make ends meet, and I have always been dreaming of improving their lives with my own efforts. Furthermore, I also want to earn some money for my family and lighten my parents’load. To conclude, it’s not so easy to have such a chance, I will of course take advantage of this opportunity to make my dream come true.&文 章来源莲山课件 w ww.5 y kj.Co m
