　　必修二 Unit 3 Amazing people

　　Ⅰ.单项填空

　　1.makes me feel worried is singing stars are centered on by masses of teenagers today.

　　A.What；whatB.That；that

　　C.What；that

　　D.That；what

　　解析：考查名词性从句。第一空的what引导主语从句，且what在从句中作主语；第二空的that引导表语从句，that没有意义，且不作句子成分，只作连接词。

　　答案：C

　　2.(2010·皖南八校联考)—Much knowledge as well as many abilities from our teachers.

　　—Yes.We should love and respect our teachers.

　　A.are learned

　　B.is learned

　　C.learn

　　D.learns

　　解析：much knowledge是主语，as well as many abilities跟在主语后，不影响谓语动词的形式，且主语与learn之间是被动关系，故选B。

　　答案：B

　　3.(2010·厦门质检)By

　　the end of last year，another new theme park completed in that area.

　　A.was being

　　B.would be

　　C.has been

　　D.had been

　　解析：考查动词的时态。由时间状语by the end of last year可以看出，complete是在过去某一时间之前发生的，所以用过去完成时。

　　答案：D

　　4.(2010·东北三校统考)It's on the festival occasions 　the family get together he misses his late father.

　　A.where；that

　　B.which；when

　　C.when；that

　　D.that；when

　　—Pretty good.But what you bought with the samples，I don't think it the money.

　　C.compare；worthy

　　D.comparing；value

　　解析：句意：“你认为正在出售的这些家具怎么样？”“相当好。但把你买的那件和这些样品相比较，我认为它不值那么多钱。”第一空考查分词作状语，排除C项；主句主语I与compare之间为逻辑上的主谓关系，故排除B项；worth后常跟名词或ving，表示“值……，……值得做”。

　　答案：A

　　6.—Things are getting more expensive now.

　　—It's that the prices will continue to .

　　A.certain；rise upB.certain；go up

　　C.sure；raise

　　D.sure；be raised up

　　解析：sure和certain都可表示 “一定，确信”，在句型：It's certain that...中不能用sure代替certain。raise为及物动词；rise up“站起，反抗”；go up“(价格、温度等)上涨，上升”。

　　答案：B

　　.阅读理解

　　Violin prodigies(神童)，I learned，have come in distinct waves from distinct regions.Most of the great performers of the late 19th and early 20th centuries were born and brought up in Russia and Eastern Europe.I asked Isaac Stern，one of the world's greatest violinists，the reason for this phenomenon.“It's very clear，” he told me.“They were all Jews and Jews at the time were severely oppressed and illtreated in that part of the world.They were not allowed into the professional fields，but they were allowed to achieve excellence on a concert stage.As a result，every Jewish parent's dream was to have a child in the music school because it was a passport to the West.

　　Another element in the emergence of prodigies，I found，is a society that values excellence in a certain field and is able to nurture(培育) talent.Nowadays the most nurturing societies seem to be in the Far East.“In Japan，a most competitive society with stronger discipline than ours，” says Isaac Stern，“children are ready to test their limits every day in many fields，including music.When Western music came to Japan after World War II，that music not only became part of their daily lives，but it became a discipline as well.” The Koreans and Chinese，as we know，are just as highly motivated as the Japanese.

　　That's a good thing，because even prodigies must work hard.Next to hard work，biological inheritance plays an important role in the making of a prodigy.J.S.Bach，for example，was the top of several generations of musicians，and four of his sons had significant careers in music.

　　1.Jewish parents in Eastern Europe longed for their children to attend music school because.

　　A.it would allow them access to a better life in the West

　　B.Jewish children are born with excellent musical talent

　　C.they wanted their children to enter into the professional fields

　　D.it would enable the family to get better treatment in their own country

　　解析：考查细节理解。根据文章第一段的陈述 “ It's very clear...They were all Jews and… but… because it was a passport to the West.”可知A项符合题意。因为那是他们通往西方生活的一种方式。

　　答案：A

　　2.Nurturing societies as mentioned in the passage refer to societies that.

　　A.enforce strong discipline on students who want to achieve excellence

　　B.treasure talent and provide opportunities for its full development

　　C.encourage people to compete with each other

　　D.promise talented children high positions

　　解析：考查综合理解。根据文章的第二段中对 “Nurturing societies”所下的定义“a society that values excellence in a certain field and is able to nurture talent”可知B项正确。

　　答案：B

　　3.Japan is described in the passage as a country that attaches importance to.

　　A.allrounded development

　　B.the learning of Western music

　　C.strict training of children

　　D.variety in academic studies

　　解析：考查分析归纳。根据文中第二段 “In Japan，a most competitive society with stronger discipline than ours”，“children are ready to test their limits every day in many fields”可知。

　　答案：C

　　4.Which of the following contributes to the emergence of musical prodigies according to the passage？

　　A.A natural gift.

　　B.Extensive knowledge of music.

　　C.Very early training.

　　D.A prejudicefree society.

　　解析：考查细节理解。根据文中第三段“Next to hard work，biological inheritance plays an important role in the working of a prodigy.”可知biological inheritance对天才的出现有重要作用。

　　答案：A

　　Question： What is more astonishing than a 60ton whale on a flatbed truck being driven down

　　the street？

　　Answer： A 60ton whale on a flatbed truck exploding and raining blubber ( fat of whales) all

　　over the sidewalk.

　　That's what happened in Taiwan recently，when a dead sperm whale being shipped to the Halobios Research Center for an autopsy(尸体解剖) developed an extremely bad case of gas and blew up before it reached its destination.

　　The whale was found alive on a Taiwan beach last weekend，and died shortly after it was discovered.Since the 56foot whale was the largest whale ever beached on Taiwan's shores，scientists wanted to study it and perform an autopsy for educational purpose.

　　Obviously，too much time passed between when the animal died and the time it was set to be moved to the autopsy location，because it had already started to go bad.When things rot，they give off gases as a byproduct.In the whale's case，the gases were trapped in its belly.The pressure inside the rotting creature grew so much that it popped like an overfilled balloon.Unfortunately，it was on a truck in the middle of the city of Taiwan at the time—cars and shops lining the street were covered with whale bits and juices，much to their owners' discouragement.

　　According to the news reports，traffic was tied up for hours while officials tried to clean up the streets.

　　Newspaper editors worldwide were probably smiling to themselves，since they had a readymade headline—several reports about the incident were titled“There She Blows！” after the famous line from the book Moby Dick.

　　语篇解读：本文为资讯体裁，一辆平板卡车装载着一头体重达60吨的抹香鲸在台湾的大街上行驶，这个庞然大物是生还是死？

　　5.The purpose of the question at the beginning of this news report is to.

　　A.explain the reason　B.sell newspapers

　　C.attract readers

　　D.give an immediate answer

　　解析：考查写作目的。很显然，本文作者以问答的形式开头来吸引读者。

　　答案：C

　　6.The whale's explosion is the result of.

　　A.pressure from gases building up in the creature as it began to rot

　　B.the long transport of the creature from the beach to the center

　　C.the extremely busy traffic in the streets it passed by

　　D.the quick process of rotting of the animal
