模塊綜合測(cè)評(píng)(四) Ⅰ.閱讀理解(共15小題；每小題2分，滿分30分) A Though in a digital age，college students nowadays are still holding fast to traditional books.According to the National Association of College Stores，digital books make up just under 3% of textbook sales，although the association expects that share to grow to 10% to 15% by 2014 as more titles are made available as ebooks.However，threequarters of the students，who grew up learning from print books，say that they are unwilling to give up the ability to turn over quickly between chapters，write in the edges and highlight passages. The new technology has produced various options for students.College Booksellers，which operates 636 campus bookstores nationwide，is now marketing its new software application，which allows students to read etextbooks on PCs.The company introduced the free application last summer in hopes of attracting more students to buy its electronic textbooks.“Now the biggest barrier is getting them to try it，” said the companys vice president. But not every textbook is available in digital or rental format.Generally，an etextbook is cheaper than a used book，though more expensive than a rental.The expense of college textbooks has become a great concern and teachers from over 40 colleges nationwide are encouraged to assign texts that are less expensive，or to offer them free online.As the buyback price drops greatly and quickly，some professors suggest that the book stores should not have the last say and there should be something for students to decide by themselves. 【語(yǔ)篇解讀】　本文為說(shuō)明文。雖然現(xiàn)在已經(jīng)進(jìn)入數(shù)字時(shí)代，但大多數(shù)大學(xué)生仍然鐘愛(ài)傳統(tǒng)紙質(zhì)書(shū)籍。 1．College students prefer traditional books mainly because they ______. A. want to keep the ability of reading print books B．have the habit of turning over quickly between pages C．find it interesting to keep notes in the edges of books D．feel more relaxed to read print materials 【解析】　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段倒數(shù)第一句“由于從小就用紙質(zhì)書(shū)籍學(xué)習(xí)，因此有四分之三的學(xué)生不愿放棄在章節(jié)間迅速翻動(dòng)，在空白處寫字，標(biāo)注文章。”可知答案為A。 【答案】　A 2．Which of the following is NOT true according to the 2nd paragraph? A．College Booksellers operates more than 600 bookstores in campus. B．The free application was introduced to increase sales of electronic textbooks. C．Campus students now fancy a try of the free software application. D．The companys management still has to do more to sell the ebooks. 【解析】　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段第二句中“which operates 636 campus bookstores nationwide”可排除A項(xiàng)；根據(jù)第二段中“The company introduced the free application last summer in hopes of attracting more students to buy its electronic textbooks.”可排除B項(xiàng)；根據(jù)第二段最后一句中的“Now the biggest barrier is getting them to try it，...”可知在校學(xué)生并沒(méi)有表示出對(duì)這款免費(fèi)軟件有所鐘愛(ài)，故答案為C項(xiàng)，且排除D項(xiàng)。 【答案】　C 3．We can learn from the passage that ______. A. secondhand books are cheaper than rental books B．a(chǎn)ll the textbooks have both the digital and rental formats C．the price totally determines the students selection of books D．the price of buyback books is determined by book stores 【解析】　推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章最后一段最后一句(隨著回購(gòu)價(jià)的急劇下降，一些教授建議圖書(shū)回購(gòu)書(shū)店不應(yīng)該有最后的定價(jià)權(quán)，回購(gòu)價(jià)應(yīng)該由學(xué)生自己決定)可見(jiàn)目前圖書(shū)回購(gòu)價(jià)格是由書(shū)店決定的。 【答案】　D 4．The best title for the text would be ______. A．Addiction to Traditional Books B．Print Books in a Digital World C．More Texts in Digital Format D．Book Price Drops Sharply and Quickly 【解析】　主旨大意題。文章是以數(shù)字時(shí)代紙質(zhì)書(shū)籍在學(xué)生中的地位為線索展開(kāi)的，故本篇文章的題目為：數(shù)字世界的紙質(zhì)書(shū)籍。A項(xiàng)中的addiction(上癮；入迷)不是本篇文章的中心，故被排除。 【答案】　B B　　　　 【導(dǎo)學(xué)號(hào)：72880046】 There are many words unique to Australian English. Ortotrot? I came across that word while studying at a school in North Head，Manly, New South Wales, Australia，in 1974.It is local slang (俚語(yǔ)) for Are you ready (to go)? and it was derived from the sound of a carriagepulling horse.At Sydney Airport，I asked the way to the train station and he told me，“Go ask that bloke over there.”Bloke is used in Australia and refers to a person. Day and die sound almost alike and since “a”，“i”and “o” all sound almost the same，I have always told my friends，jokingly，that they only need 24 letters，and not 26 like the rest of us. Australian English began diverging from British English in 1788.In 1827 Peter Cunningham，in his book Two Years in New South Wales，reported that nativeborn white Australians spoke with a distinctive accent and vocabulary. Australian English has many words that some consider unique to the language.One of the best known is outback，meaning a faraway area.Another is the bush，meaning either a native forest.Bush is a word of Dutch origin：“Bosch”．However，both terms have been widely used in many Englishspeaking countries.Early settlers from England brought other similar words，phrases and usages to Australia.Bonzer，which was once a common Australian slang word meaning “great” or “beautiful”， is thought to have been an American term.Since the 1950s，the American influence on language in Australia has come from pop culture.Australian English is most similar to New Zealand English for their similar history. Words of Irish origin are used，some of which are also common elsewhere in the Irish，such as tucker for “food”，as well as one or two native English words whose meanings have changed under Irish influence，such as paddock for “field”，which has exactly the same meaning as the Australian paddock. 【語(yǔ)篇解讀】　本文介紹了澳大利亞英語(yǔ)的獨(dú)特性以及其他英語(yǔ)對(duì)它的影響。 5．The main purpose of Paragraph 2 is to show ______. A．the author wasnt familiar with Australian English B．the author found it difficult to understand Australians C．many Australian English words are unique D．Australians are quite friendly to foreigners 【解析】　推理判斷題。作者在本段舉的兩個(gè)例子都是為了說(shuō)明澳大利亞英語(yǔ)有其獨(dú)有的詞匯。 【答案】　C 6．Why did the writer tell his friends Australians only need 24 letters? A. Because Australians speak very easy English. B．Because Australians never use “a” or “i”． C．Because there are 3 letters having almost the same pronunciation. D．Because there are different ways to call the same thing. 【解析】　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段前半句可知，作者之所以認(rèn)為澳大利亞人只需要24個(gè)字母，是因?yàn)樵诎拇罄麃営⒄Z(yǔ)中“a”，“i”和“o”這三個(gè)字母的發(fā)音很相似。 【答案】　C 7．What does the underlined word “diverging” in Paragraph 4 mean? A．Drawing apart.　　　 B．Holding back. C．Waking up. D．Mixing up. 【解析】　詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)下文所述，澳大利亞英語(yǔ)有了自己本土的、獨(dú)特的口音和詞匯。由此可以推知，此處指澳大利亞英語(yǔ)從英國(guó)英語(yǔ)中分離了出來(lái)，故A項(xiàng)“分離”符合題意。 【答案】　A 8．From the passage，we can know that ______. A. the native language of Australia is English B．the first settlers came to Australia in 1827 C．American pop culture plays a part in Australian English D．Peter Cunningham went to visit Australia in the 1850s 【解析】　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第五段倒數(shù)第二句可知，美國(guó)的流行文化影響了澳大利亞英語(yǔ)。 【答案】　C C Each new school year brings fresh reminders of what educators call the summer learning gap.Some call it the summer learning setback.Simply speaking，it means the longer kids are out of school, the more they forget.The only thing they might gain is weight. Most American schools follow a traditional nine month calendar.Students get winter and spring breaks and about ten weeks of summer vacation.Some schools follow a yearround calendar.They hold classes for about eight weeks at a time, with a few weeks off in between.The National Association for YearRound Education says there were fewer than three thousand such schools at last count.They were spread among fortysix of the fifty states. But many experts point out that the number of class days in a yearround school is generally the same as in a traditional school.Lead researcher Paul von Hippel said, “Yearround schools dont really solve the problem of the summer learning setback.They simply spread it out across the year.” Across the country, research shows that students from poor families fall farther behind over the summer than other students.Experts say this can be prevented.They note that many schools and local governments offer programs that can help. But calling them “summer school” could be a problem.The director of the summer learning center at Johns Hopkins, Ron Fairchild, said research with groups of different parents in Chicago and Baltimore found that almost all strongly disliked the term “summer school”．In American culture, the idea of summer vacation is connected to beliefs about freedom and the joys of childhood.The parents welcomed other terms like “summer camp” ，“enrichment”，“extra time” and “handson learning”． 9．According to the first paragraph the summer learning gap ________. A．helps children to gain weight B．leads children to work harder C．improves childrens memories D．a(chǎn)ffects childrens regular studies 【解析】　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段第三句“Simply speaking，it means the longer kids are out of school，the more they forget.”可知暑假影響了學(xué)生的正常學(xué)習(xí)，故選D。 【答案】　D 10．Compared to traditional schools, students in the yearround ones ________. A．perform better and have more learning gains B．have much less time for relaxation every year C．have generally the same number of class days D．hold more classes with more free weeks off 【解析】　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段首句“But many experts point out that the number of class days in a yearround school is generally the same as in a traditional school.”可知，全年的學(xué)校與一般的學(xué)校都有相同天數(shù)的授課時(shí)間，故選C。 【答案】　C 11．Why did almost all parents dislike the term “summer school”？ A．They cherish the childrens rights of freedom very much. B．They are worried about the quality of the “summer school”． C．They want their children to be forced to make up the gap. D．They cant afford to the further study during vacation. 【解析】　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第五段中的“...research with groups of different parents in Chicago and Baltimore found that almost all strongly disliked the term ‘summer school’．In American culture，the idea of summer vacation is connected to beliefs about freedom and the joys of childhood.”可知，父母認(rèn)為這樣是剝奪孩子的自由的權(quán)利，故選A。 【答案】　A 12．What would be the best title of this passage? A．Opening Summer Camps B．Forbidding Summer Schools C．Spreading YearRound Education D．Minding the Summer Learning Gap 【解析】　標(biāo)題歸納題。根據(jù)第一段第一句“Each new school year brings fresh reminders of what educators call the summer learning gap.”及短文的內(nèi)容可知選D。 【答案】　D D Room for Rent by East Jefferson Hospital in Metaire Room for rent for $500.00 per month and $500.00 damage deposit.You will have use of the refrigerator (I have two) and the washer and dryer and the kitchen and the inground swimming pool.There is a oneyear rental agreement but can be changed to a monthtomonth after six months with a 30day notice.There is parking in front of the house which is on a short dead end street.You can contact by phone at 5044551499 or you can email me at martin 286@ aol.com.My name is Jerry.

Im probably not the most competent person in this crowd. ◆__17__ I dont want to be embarrassed. ◆No one else looks concerned; this must not be a problem. Time and again, good and caring people fail to come to the aid of others.Why? __18__Lets say you see vapors coming out of a building.You ask yourself, “Is it steam or smoke？” If you are not sure, you look to other people for a clue about how to react.If you see other people are doing nothing, you think, “Of course，thats just steam.”You dont want it to be smoke, because then you would have to do something about it. Another wellknown deterrent (制止物) to action is known as “the bystander effect”．__19__For example, if you are the only person in the world who can act to save someone in a dangerous situation, you are more likely to act. “If you spot trouble, force yourself to stop and evaluate the situation instead of walking on，”says Ervin Staub.“__20__You dont have to take on the entire responsibility of being helpful.Once you take action, most people will also help.” A．Then try to involve other people. B．Our society is becoming less sensitive. C．What if the person doesnt really need help? D．No one wants to risk looking foolish in front of others. E．The first thoughts that come into your mind often keep you from offering help. F．One thing we do know is that the more ambiguous a situation is, the less likely people are to help. G．This says that the more people there are observing an emergency, the less responsible each one of them personally feels. 【答案】　16－20　ECFGA Ⅲ.完形填空(共20小題；每小題1.5分，滿分30分) About ten years ago，I was on a plane going west，and a young woman __21__ and sat across the aisle(過(guò)道) from me.I noticed her for two reasons.She was very attractive，and she was holding a teddy bear about half her __22__ .I teased her by asking if she had a __23__ for the bear.She laughed and said no.
