Unit 5 Music一、閱讀理解Joseph Goldberger was a doctor for the United States Public Health Service and he was an advocate for scientific and social recognition of the links between poverty and disease.In 1914，Goldberger was asked by US Surgeon General Rupert Blue to study a skin disease that was killing thousands of people in the South.The disease was pellagra(糙皮病)Goldberger traveled to the state of Mississippi where many people suffered from pellagra.He studied the victims and their families.Most of the people lived a hard life.The doctor came to believe that the disease didnt pass on from one to another，but was instead related to food.He received permission from the state governor to test this idea at a prison.Prisoners were offered pardons if they took part.One group of prisoners received their usual foods，mostly corn products.A second group ate meat，fresh vegetables and drank milk.Members of the first group developed pellagra.The second group did not.But some medical researchers refused to accept Goldbergers idea.For the South，pellagra was more than simply a medical problem.There were other things，including Southern pride.So Goldberger had himself injected(注射)with blood from a person with pellagra.He also took liquid from the nose and throat of a pellagra patient and put them into his own nose and throat.He even swallowed pills that contained skin from pellagra patients.An assistant also took part in the experiments.So did Goldbergers wife.None of them got sick.Joseph Goldberger died of cancer in 1929.He was fiftyfive years old.Several years later，researchers discovered the exact cause of pellagra：a lack of vitamin B3 known as niacin.1Who were easy targets of pellagra according to Goldberger?APeople in America.BPeople put into prison.CPeople having a poor diet.DPeople touching pellagra patients.2What did Goldberger want to prove by the experiments mentioned in Paragraph 4?APellagra wasnt so terrible.BPellagra didnt spread.CPellagra could be cured.DPellagra wasnt a medical problem.3Which words can be used to describe Goldberger?ADevoted and determined.BSelfless and friendly.CPatient and expert.DStubborn and enthusiastic.【解題導(dǎo)語(yǔ)】本文是一篇記敘文。文章介紹了美國(guó)醫(yī)生Joseph Goldberger研究糙皮病的患病原因的過(guò)程。Joseph Goldberger醫(yī)生的認(rèn)真、犧牲精神令人感動(dòng)?！倦y句分析】The doctor came to believe that the disease didnt pass on from one to another，but was instead related to food.分析：本句是一個(gè)含有that引導(dǎo)的賓語(yǔ)從句的主從復(fù)合句。that 從句中，but連接兩個(gè)并列的謂語(yǔ)。譯文：這位醫(yī)生漸漸相信這種病不是傳染性的，而是與食物有關(guān)。1C考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第二段中的“Most of the people lived a hard life.the disease didnt pass on from one to another，but was instead related to food”，再結(jié)合Goldberger在監(jiān)獄進(jìn)行的實(shí)驗(yàn)的內(nèi)容可知，在Joseph Goldberger看來(lái)，糙皮病和食物有關(guān)，而且患者大多生活條件差；再結(jié)合實(shí)驗(yàn)中提到的主要吃玉米制品的犯人最后患上了該病可知，不良的飲食容易導(dǎo)致人們患糙皮病。2B考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第二段中提到的Goldberger認(rèn)為糙皮病不是傳染病以及第四段中提到的他為了證明自己的觀點(diǎn)而進(jìn)行的實(shí)驗(yàn)的內(nèi)容(將患糙皮病的人的血液注射到自己的體內(nèi)、將糙皮病病人的鼻腔和口腔中的液體放入自己的鼻腔和口腔以及吞咽含有糙皮病病人的皮膚組織的藥丸)和結(jié)果(他沒(méi)患病)可推知，Goldberger進(jìn)行實(shí)驗(yàn)是為了證明糙皮病不傳染。3A考查推理判斷。文中提到的Goldberger在監(jiān)獄及在他自己身上做實(shí)驗(yàn)的內(nèi)容表明他全心全意地投入到對(duì)糙皮病的研究中，有奉獻(xiàn)精神；盡管一些人不認(rèn)可Goldberger的觀點(diǎn)，但他仍堅(jiān)持自己的看法并堅(jiān)決地去證明自己的觀點(diǎn)是正確的，這體現(xiàn)出他意志堅(jiān)定。故選A。二、單句語(yǔ)法填空1The meeting didnt break _until noon.答案：upbreak up “結(jié)束；解散”。2She buried her head under the covers, _(pretend) to be asleep.答案：pretending此處She與pretend之間是主動(dòng)關(guān)系，且pretend表示的動(dòng)作幾乎與謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞所表示的動(dòng)作同時(shí)發(fā)生，故用現(xiàn)在分詞pretending作伴隨狀語(yǔ)。3The process is _(pain), but the result is desirable. Remember: no pains, no gains.答案：painful此處形容詞painful “痛苦的”，作表語(yǔ)。4She was efficient and _(rely), so we all liked her very much.答案：reliable此處形容詞reliable “可靠的”，作表語(yǔ)。5He was full of _(confident) that he would be admitted to the famous university.答案：confidencefull of confidence “充滿信心”。6It is hard for migrant workers _(earn) a living, especially during the present financial crisis.答案：to earn此處to earn a living是不定式短語(yǔ)作主語(yǔ)，句首It是形式主語(yǔ)。7The old are very _(attach) to old customs and habits.答案：attachedbe attached to “依戀”。8Tom and his twin sisters are going to put on a _ (perform) tomorrow evening.答案：performanceput on a performance “演出”。9To be great, you must be smart, confident, and, _all, honest.答案：aboveabove all為固定短語(yǔ)，意為“最重要；首先”。10(2017北京高考)In 1963 the UN set up the World Food Programme, one of _purposes is to relieve worldwide starvation.答案：whose本空需要關(guān)系代詞引導(dǎo)非限制性定語(yǔ)從句，句子還原后的表達(dá)是one of its purposes is to relieve worldwide starvation，這里把作定語(yǔ)的人稱代詞its改為whose，引導(dǎo)定語(yǔ)從句并在從句中作定語(yǔ)，指代前面的名詞the World Food Programme，因此填whose。三、完形填空Kobe Bryant, a super basketball star, announced that he would retire at the end of the 201516 season via a letter poem.
