高考英語大一輪復(fù)習(xí) Unit 1 Women of achievement課時(shí)作業(yè) 新人教版必修4. 閱讀理解A (原創(chuàng))BEIJING, June 20(Xinhua)Over 60 million students and teachers at Chinas 80, 000 middle schools experienced a special class delivered by Chinas first teacher in space from more than 300 kilometers above the Earths surface. “Hello, everyone. I am Wang Yaping. I will host the lecture today. ”Female astronaut Wang Yaping, one of the three crew members of Shenzhou-spacecraft, greeted about 330 students at a Beijing high school, through a live video feed system. The students on her class included children from migrant workers families, of ethnic minorities and from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan. In this space class, Wang carried out some physics experiments about motion(運(yùn)動(dòng))and surface tension(張力)of water in a micro-gravity environment(微重力環(huán)境), which can help students better understand weight, mass and Newtons Laws. The most amazing one is“a water ball”, Wang Yaping makes a water film(水膜)with a water bag and a metal ring. She explained to students that the surface tension of water enlarges in space because of zero gravity. Then she made a second water film turn into a water ball. “I have been very excited since I learned I could e to this class, ”said Luo Jiangyuan, in his first year of high school. “When I learned about those laws of weightless condition at classes before, the teacher couldnt show the experiment for us, so I needed to imagine what would happen. But, at todays class, I am able to see what really happens. It is too exciting, ”he said. Wang is the second Chinese female astronaut after Liu Yang. It was also the second video class delivered from above the Earths surface, with the US astronaut Barbara Morgans 25-minute class being the first in xx. As some scientists believed, the lesson is aimed at making space science more popular. Space activities can also help the youth build up the spirit of seeking science and facing challenges. 【文章大意】2013年6月20日, 中國女航天員王亞平成功實(shí)施了太空授課, 中國成為繼美國之后第二個(gè)太空授課的國家。1.

Outdoor adventure is often just a few stops on the trainor a short drive-away from the annoying crowds. Here are a few favorites to get you going: Mount Hollywood Trail(林間小道, 鄉(xiāng)間小路), Los AngelesIts not a skyscraper or a Ferris wheel, and theres no expensive restaurant up top. But if you want an absolutely unforgettable, no-admission-charged, 360-degree view of the entire Los Angeles region, its yours. All you have to do is to walk a little. One of the preferred exercise routes, the Mount Hollywood Trail, is easily accessed from the parking lot of the famous Griffith Observatory; you see what you get at the end of this steep 1. 5-mile trail, which winds its way through the Griffith Park winds up to the mountains 1, 640-foot peak. Bronx River, New YorkIt may not be on your Top 10 list of things to do when you finally get to the Big Apple, but exploring the almost-secret river that flows through one of New Yorks most mysterious boroughs(自治市)is an unforgettable experience. The Bronx River Alliance, a non-profit group that has worked tirelessly to bring the much-abused river back to life, operates cycling and canoeing trips along the river, from the rugged Hunts Point section down near the harbor on up through the borough. Southern Islands, SingaporeBelieve it or not, tightly packed Singapore does have plenty of open space left. There are actual trails right in the middle of everything, if you know where to look. But to really get away from it all, the Southern Islands, a small group of little green dots just off the city states southern shoreline, are just the thing. Lee Valley, LondonThis East London river valley changed last summer, when anyone near a television got an eyeful of Olympic Park, built directly in the middle of the valley. Inside the park, beautifully landscaped sections quickly became a favorite relaxation spot for games goers. At present, youll find miles of walking paths worth exploring. Start at the Waltham Cross train and follow the signposted walking route southbound, guiding you past important historic industrial areas, through interesting city neighborhoods, past the western side of Olympic Park and on to the Thames. 【文章大意】文章主要講解了在世界上即使最擁擠的城市也可以找到大自然的存在, 本文主要介紹了四處值得參觀和做戶外運(yùn)動(dòng)的地方。5.

Husbands lie, friends lie, wives lie, and believe it or not, your mother might lie. A recent study showed that 91% of all people lie on a regular basis, and people tell at least 13 major lies a week. Dr. Robert G. Newby, a professor of sociology, believes that men are more likely to tell lies than women. “Men are more concerned about how they present themselves in public, the impression they make on people and things like that, ”he says. “Men are always trying to impress people in the work and want to make sure that their presentation of self is one that makes them look good. 2. ”Women, on the other hand, Dr. Newby believes, are more private people and their relationship tends to be more interpersonal, as opposed to having to put on a public face. Women are more vulnerable(易受傷害的)and they are not as likely to try to pull the wool over someones eyes as men. Psychotherapist Vesta Callender also agrees that men and women do lie differently. “3. They plan better, ”Callender notes. “They create a history around the lie, and they try to project into the future what might happen if the lie is detected. With a woman, a lie has a beginning, a middle and an end. ”Callender believes that men tend to lie for the moment or to get out of a situation. 4. Dr. Elmore stresses that while it is true that most people lie from time to time, one should be truthful. “5. Everything that is true does not need to be said, but everything said needs to be true. ”he says. A. Be truthful at any cost. B. Men also lie to each other. C. Everyone lies from time to time. D. Women are much more careful in their lies. E. Men think less about how the lie can be detected. F. He lies about almost everything, even when he doesnt have to. G. Men are more likely to step outside of their relationships than women. 答案: 15. CGDEA
