高中英语Unit 6 Nurturing nature当堂达标检测题
展开Unit 6 Nurturing nature课时素养检测二十二 Unit 6 Period 2Ⅰ. 阅读理解A Here’s an idea whose time has come: A flu shot that doesn’t require an actual shot. For the first time,researchers have tested a flu vaccine patch (疫苗贴) in a human clinical experiment and found that it delivered as much protection as a traditional injection with a needle. Doctors and public health experts have high hopes that it will increase the number of people who get immunized (免疫的) against the flu. Seasonal flu is responsible for up to half a million deaths around the world each year according to the World Health Organization. A team led by Georgia Tech engineer Mark Prausnitz has come up with an alternative method that uses “microneedles”. These tiny needles are so small that 100 of them,arranged in order on a patch can fit under your thumb (拇指). Yet they’re big enough to hold vaccine for three types of flu. None of the study volunteers had serious side effects. The groups that got patches had mild skin reactions that were not seen in the regular needle group,while the volunteers in the regular needle group were more likely to experience pain. Overall,70 percent of the volunteers who got vaccine patches said they’d rather use them again than get a traditional flu shot. The study authors declared it a success on all fronts. The biggest beneficiaries(受益者) could be people in low-and middle-income countries,where flu vaccines are hard to come by. Reducing pain is nice,but other benefits—the patch costs less,is easier to transport,doesn’t require refrigeration,can be self-administered and doesn’t cause waste of needles—are even better. “Microneedle patches have the potential to become ideal candidates for vaccination programs,” wrote Katja Hoschler and Maria Zambon of Public Health England. 【语篇概述】疫苗是维护人类健康的重要手段之一。但是一直以来,通过注射方式接种疫苗让很多人尤其是孩子感到痛苦,科学家研制出一种新的疫苗接种方式。1. What is the passage mainly about?A. A vaccine cures people of their flu. B. A method makes traditional flu shot painless. C. A patch makes flu shots a thing of the past. D. A team has developed a new way to vaccinate. 【解析】选D。主旨大意题。根据文章内容可知,文章主要讲了一个研究团队研发出了新的疫苗接种方式。2. What do we know about the vaccine patch?A. It causes slight side effects. B. It causes serious skin reactions. C. It delivers vaccine on the head. D. It works badly on 30% of the volunteers. 【解析】选A。细节理解题。根据第四段第一句话“None of the study volunteers had serious side effects. ”可知。3. The new patch has all the following benefits except that_______. A. it is provided free of chargeB. it can be used without doctorsC. it can be kept at room temperatureD. it needs less care in transportation【解析】选A。细节理解题。根据第五段中的“the patch costs less,is easier to transport,doesn’t require refrigeration,can be self-administered and doesn’t cause waste of needles”可知,这种新的接种方式费用较低,但不是免费的,故选A。4. What is Katja and Maria’s attitude towards the new shot?A. Cautious. B. Favorable. C. Unclear. D. Disapproving. 【解析】选B。推理判断题。根据最后一段的话可知,两人认为新的接种方式很有潜力,故选B。B University of New South Wales has launched its new 12-month Women in Maths & Science Champions Program designed to give women the skills and confidence to build their public recognition and set up a connected network of women in maths and science. The first group of 30 female PhD students started in August this year,and the second group of 19 early-career researchers was formally announced yesterday. Over the 12 months,the champions complete at least 20 hours of related activities as part of a community of representatives who will influence and inspire women to pursue a career in maths and science. The activities are varied,ranging from visiting schools and conducting science presentations,to attending conferences and creating content for social media. At the end of the program,PhD champions have the chance to apply everything they’ve learned to the Postgraduate Research Competition. Above all,participating is a requirement for program completion. Rose O’Dea,a member of the first group,is a PhD candidate at the School of Biological,Earth and Environmental Sciences. She said,“I’m excited about the opportunity to work with school children. I hope to inspire some girls so they see not all scientists are older men in lab coats and that science is quite diverse and means different things depending on who you are. ”Dr. Mariana Mayer Pinto is an early-career researcher at the School of Biological,Earth and Environmental Sciences,where she mainly works with marine (海洋的) ecologists. She is originally from Brazil and said that being a woman from a developing country meant she knew the struggles that lack of role models can create. “You can’t be what you can’t see! I always have the hope that I can change the world bit by bit,and if one little girl says she can become a scientist because I talked to her,that would be awesome,and that would make everything worth it. ”【语篇概述】本文是一篇议论文。文章论述的是如何提高女性对数学和科学的参与度。5. What does the program intend to do?A. Test female PhD’s learning results. B. Promote the equality of men and women. C. Set up an organization for women scientists. D. Improve women’s participation in maths and science. 【解析】选 D。推理判断题。根据第一段中University of New South Wales has launched its new 12-month Women in Maths & Science Champions Program designed to give women the skills and confidence to build their public recognition and set up a connected network of women in maths and science.
