參考答案UNIT2單元提能強化練Ⅰ.【語篇導讀】本文是一篇說明文。文章介紹了發(fā)表在《當代生物學》雜志上的一項探討表明,周末睡懶覺的習慣并不能彌補工作日睡眠不足造成的損害。更糟糕的是,它可能會損害你的健康。1.D細微環(huán)節(jié)理解題。依據(jù)第三段中“Thefirstgroupwereaskedtosleepninehoursanightandthesecondgroupfivehoursanight.Themembersofthethirdgroupsleptforfivehoursonweekdaysbutrestedaslongastheywantedontheweekend.”可知,參加的三組人員的睡眠要求不一樣。2.C詞義揣測題。依據(jù)下文中“...changestocertainbodyhormones,especiallyhungerhormones.”可知,某些身體荷爾蒙的變更,尤其是饑餓荷爾蒙。結(jié)合and,可以推想,此處與下文在意義上為并列關(guān)系,畫線詞應與changes意思相近,所以此處指生物鐘的變更。3.B細微環(huán)節(jié)理解題。依據(jù)倒數(shù)第三段最終一句“Sleepshortagecausestheleptintodropandtheghrelintorise,soyou’rehungryandeatmore.”可知,睡眠不足導致瘦素下降,饑餓激素上升,所以你會餓,吃得更多。4.C主旨大意題。探討表明,周末睡懶覺的習慣并不能彌補工作日睡眠不足造成的損害。更糟糕的是,它可能會損害你的健康。C項可作為文章的標題。【語篇導讀】本文是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了AbbyJaramillo發(fā)起了一個名叫“UrbanSprouts”的學校內(nèi)藝項目的目的和對學生產(chǎn)生的主動影響。5.D細微環(huán)節(jié)理解題。依據(jù)第一段其次句“Andatfirstitis,saysAbbyJaramillo,whowithanotherteacherstartedUrbanSprouts,aschoolgardenprogramat...”可知,AbbyJaramillo是UrbanSprouts這個項目的發(fā)起人。6.C推理推斷題。依據(jù)其次段倒數(shù)其次句“Theycometousthinkingvegetablesareawful,dirtisawful,insectsareawful.”可知,AbbyJaramillo遇到的問題是一些孩子覺得蔬菜、泥土和昆蟲是糟糕的,由此推斷出他們不喜愛園藝工作。7.A推理推斷題。依據(jù)最終一段可知,這個項目不僅為學生們供應了養(yǎng)分價值,還讓更多的學生對園藝感愛好,同時也幫助了那些有心情限制問題的學生。由此可知,該項目的影響是深遠的。8.B標題歸納題。通讀全文可知,文章主要講解并描述了AbbyJaramillo等老師在低收入學校發(fā)起的培育學生科學實力、環(huán)保意識以及健康生活方式的“UrbanSprouts”園藝項目,讓學生體驗鄉(xiāng)村生活,對學生影響深遠。由此可知,B項“體驗鄉(xiāng)村生活”符合文意,最適合作為本文標題。Ⅱ.【語篇導讀】本文是一篇記敘文。文章講解并描述了作者從PilotsNPaws網(wǎng)站上看到一個帖子后,和另一名飛行員用飛機幫助一家人將他們的狗從托皮卡接到弗吉尼亞的故事。1.B依據(jù)“Theycouldnotaffordtopayforfortheirdog,Tiffy...”可知,這個家庭的預算(budget)特別驚慌。

2.D依據(jù)“TheyhadtomovetoVirginiabuttheywereonaverytight.”及下文語境可知,這個家庭的預算特別驚慌,所以付不起他們的狗Tiffy的交通費(transportation)。

3.A依據(jù)“...wantedtotakeherwiththem.”可知,這家人特別(desperately)想把狗一起帶走。4.C依據(jù)“IwasplanninganotherPNPflightwithanotherpilot,Karen...”可知,碰巧(happened)作者和另一名飛行員正在安排另一次PNP飛行。5.B依據(jù)“...totakeTiffyfromKansasCitytoVirginia.”可知,Karen主動提出(offered)幫忙把狗Tiffy從堪薩斯城帶到弗吉尼亞。6.D依據(jù)“WhatIwastodowasflytoTopeka...”和常識可知,作者須要飛到托皮卡去接(pickup)Tiffy。7.B依據(jù)“George,thehusband,wastryingtobecalm...”可知,這家人看起來很驚慌(nervous)。8.A依據(jù)上文“...wastryingtobecalm...”以及下文“...havingtoleavehisdogtoaand...”可知,把狗留給一個生疏人對主子來說很難(hard)。

9.C依據(jù)文章的第一句可知,作者是從網(wǎng)站上看到的信息,不相識狗的主子,所以是生疏人(stranger)。10.B狗的主子很驚慌,因為把狗留給一個生疏人,并信任一切都會解決好(workout),這對他來說很難。11.D依據(jù)“...Tif
