课时作业(十七)　Unit 9　LearningPart Ⅴ　Lesson 3　The Secrets of Your MemoryⅠ.阅读理解AWe traveled to Moscow, Russia for river sightseeing. I had never been to Russia and my impression of that country was formed by what I heard and saw on television and in the newspaper. We were to be picked up at the airport by a driver who would then take us to the hotel and then go sightseeing. We arrived on time, got our baggage and went to the gate, but no one was waiting holding a sign with our names.We had the phone numbers of the driver and the travel agency but no phone worked in Russia. I noticed a young woman sitting next to me with a cell phone so I asked her if she spoke English and she replied “Yes”. Should she call our driver or the travel agency, I would pay for the call, I asked. “No problem，” she replied and called both numbers but no one answered.A Russian woman holding a sign with someone's name on it, not ours, must have overheard this conversation and took the paper and called both numbers. Again, no one answered. She shrugged and sat down and then her phone was ringing (the phone was from my driver) and in Russian she had a conversation.Then she started to tell me about the call from my driver, but in Russian. I said, “No Russian, English？” She said, “No English, Russian or Spanish.” The young woman who had made the first call said she spoke Spanish. So the Russian woman relayed (传达) the information from our driver to the young woman in Spanish. Then the young woman told the information to me in English.The three of us looked at each other and realized what had just happened and laughed and hugged each other. That was international kindness.1．What can we infer from the first paragraph?A．The author came to Russia on business.B．The author knew Russia very well.C．The driver waited for the author at the airport on time.D．The driver didn't show up at the airport.2．How can we describe the two women at the airport?A．Boring.

There's a chance that, sooner or later, you might have to move further than you were thinking, as far as Mars (火星).On Thursday, National Geographic will show the first ever Mars show home, giving earthlings an idea of what their life could look like on the Red Planet. Set in the not­so­distant year of 2037, the igloo­shaped structure could be the home of your future.It shows a house built using recycled spacecraft parts and Martian soil, called regolith, which has been microwaved into bricks. Some parts of the home are recognisable—kitchen, bedroom—but there are fundamental differences that are vital for human survival.As the Martian atmosphere is around one hundredth as thick as the Earth's, people will need permanent shelter from the sun and society will move largely indoors. Most buildings will be connected by underground passages and the houses won't have windows. The homes will have simulated solar lighting, or natural light that has been bent several times.Walls will need to be 10 to 12 feet thick, to protect people from dangerous rays that can pass through six feet of steel, and a double air­locked entrance to keep the home under proper pressure.“We don't think of our houses as things that keep us alive, but on Mars your house will be a survival centre，” says Stephen Petranek, author of How We'll Live on Mars. This is not just the stuff of sci­fi. “Ten to twenty years from now there will certainly be people on Mars，” Petranek says.“We've had the technology for 30 years to land people on Mars, but we haven't had the will，” Petranek says. “But two main factors have completely swung public attitudes.”The private companies' participation has forced government agencies to speed up their game, and influential films such as Gravity and The Martian have caught society's eye.5．What can we know about the show home from the text?A．It has no windows or doors due to security concern.B．Its design presents the idea of environmental protection.C．It has thick walls keeping the home under proper pressure.D．Its underground passages connect all the buildings together.6．What do the underlined words “put them on hold”in Paragraph 1 probably mean?A．Put them off.　　　　　B．Give them away.C．Carry them through. D．Take them seriously.7．According to Petranek, what has sped up the process of sending people to Mars?A．The great influence of Mars show home.B．The development of related technology.C．The competition from private companies.D．The popularity of influential books on Mars.8．What is the best title for the text?A．Living on Mars：Possible or NotB．Sending People to Mars：Yes or NoC．First Ever Show Home：How Is It MadeD．Future Home on Mars：What Will It Be LikeⅡ.阅读七选五How do you stay true to yourself when you're surrounded by friends and your family that have an opinion on everything you do?

We arrived on time, got our baggage and went to the gate, but no one was waiting holding a sign with our names.”可知，司机没有出现。故选D。2．答案与解析：C　推理判断题。通过文章对两位女士帮助作者的描写可知，这两位女士很热心。故选C。3．答案与解析：D　细节理解题。根据第二段中的“I noticed a young woman sitting next to me with a cell phone so I asked her if she spoke English and she replied ‘Yes’”及第三段中的“She shrugged and sat down and then her phone was ringing (the phone was from my driver) and in Russian she had a conversation.”和第四段中的“Then she started to tell me about the call from my driver, but in Russian. I said, ‘No Russian, English？’ She said, ‘No English, Russian or Spanish.’”可知司机和俄国女士不会说英语。故选D。4．答案与解析：A　主旨大意题。文章主要讲述了作者在俄罗斯受到两位热心女士帮助的故事。故事中虽然有语言障碍，但是并没有影响爱心的传递。故选A。【语篇解读】　本文主要对人类未来在火星上居住作了相关介绍。5．答案与解析：B　推理判断题。根据第三段的“It shows a house built using recycled spacecraft parts and Martian soil, called regolith, which has been microwaved into bricks.”可知，火星样板房的设计采用了可回收的宇宙飞船上的一些部件，体现了环保意识。故选B。6．答案与解析：A　词义猜测题。根据第一段的“There's a chance that, sooner or later, you might have to move further than you were thinking, as far as Mars.”可知，之前的列举都可能被搁置下来，而去火星居住迟早会成为可能。故选A。7．答案与解析：C　细节理解题。根据最后一段的“The private companies' participation has forced government agencies to up their game”可知，Petranek认为一些私人企业的参与促进了送人类去火星居住这一设想的进程。故选C。8．答案与解析：D　主旨大意题。根据全文的整体内容可推知，本文主要对人类未来在火星上居住作了相关介绍。故选D。Ⅱ.阅读七选五【语篇解读】　当周围的朋友、家人对你所做的每件事都有意见时，你要如何做才能忠于自己，并且充满活力地生活呢？本文就这一问题给出了几点建议。1．答案与解析：G　“It's not easy”说明当周围的朋友、家人对你所做的每件事都有意见时，想要忠于自己并不容易，再结合首段最后一句可知，G项与“It's not easy”在意义上是转折关系。故选G。2．答案与解析：B　由“...by listening to the only opinions that really matter—your own... and encourage you.”可知选B。3．答案与解析：E　E项与“Don't fear people”及本段内容相呼应。4．答案与解析：D　D项与空后的“When you believe in yourself, others will believe in you too”形成对比。5．答案与解析：F　“Focus on appreciation”中的“appreciation”及“What am I grateful for”中的“grateful”与F项中的“thankful”及“helpful”相呼应。故选F。Ⅲ.语法填空【语篇解读】　本文是一篇记叙文。作者从很小的时候起就对艺术产生了兴趣，特别是对Vincent van Gogh的画很着迷。本文介绍了Vincent van Gogh的艺术经历及部分作品。1．答案与解析：Considered　考查非谓语动词。这位荷兰后印象派艺术家一直被认为是最伟大的艺术家之一，对20世纪的艺术产生了巨大的影响。句子主语this Dutch Post­Impressionist artist和consider之间是逻辑上的动宾关系，所以此处用过去分词作状语，故填Considered。2．答案与解析：the　考查冠词。表示“第几世纪”要用定冠词the。3．答案与解析：successful　考查形容词。他后来试图成为一名牧师，但并没有成功。be动词后面应用形容词作表语，故填successful。4．答案与解析：it　考查代词。“make it＋形容词＋for sb.＋动词不定式”为固定结构，其中it是形式宾语，动词不定式为真正的宾语。5．答案与解析：that　考查强调句。直到1880年，Vincent才开始了他的艺术家生涯。此处是强调句型，强调时间状语“until 1880”，故填that。6．答案与解析：were produced　考查动词的时态和语态。本句的主语是被创作的对象，且此处表示的动作发生在过去，故用一般过去时的被动语态。7．答案与解析：seriously　考查副词。此处用副词修饰后面的形容词ill。8．答案与解析：on　考查介词。on exhibition为固定短语，意为“在展览中”。9．答案与解析：paintings　考查名词的数。painting为可数名词，且本空前面有several，故应用其复数形式。10．答案与解析：setting　考查非谓语动词。此处应用现在分词短语作结果状语，表示自然而然的结果。
