Unit 3 一、詞匯復(fù)習(xí)（一）單句語法填空1(2015浙江杭州地區(qū)七校模擬改編)When you phoned me, I was having a meeting; how I wish I _(answer) your call. 答案：had answered句意為：當(dāng)你給我打電話的時候，我正在開會。我多么希望我(之前)接了你的電話。wish后的從句中用虛擬語氣，根據(jù)句意可知是對過去情況的虛擬，所以謂語動詞用had done形式。2(2015湖南懷化質(zhì)檢改編)Had it not been for my teachers help, I wouldnt_(win)the first place in contest. 答案：have won條件從句中的謂語動詞用“had過去分詞”，主句中的謂語動詞用“should/would/could/mighthave done”。根據(jù)句意答案為have won。3(2014湖南，22改編)If Mr.Dewey _(be) present, he would have offered any possible assistance to the people there. 答案：had been句意為：如果杜威先生在場的話，他就會為那里的人提供任何可能的幫助。從主句中的would have offered可以看出，從句表示與過去事實相反的虛擬語氣，故應(yīng)用過去完成時。4(2014甘肅天水一中段考改編)John wants to see me now, but I have so much work on hand that I would rather he _(e) tomorrow than today. 答案：camewould rather后面接從句時，從句中的謂語動詞通常要用一般過去時，表示對現(xiàn)在或?qū)淼募僭O(shè)。5(2012陜西，17改編)If my car_(be)more reliable，I would have driven to Lhasa instead of flying last summer. 答案：had been句意為：如果我的車更可靠點兒的話，我去年夏天就會開車去拉薩，而不是坐飛機(jī)去了。根據(jù)語境可知，此處是對過去事實的虛擬，故if條件句用過去完成時，主句謂語用“would/could/might/shouldhave過去分詞”。（二）英漢互譯144.aspect n. _145.impression n. _146.take up _147.constant adj. _148.constantly adv. _149.jet n. _150.jet lag _151.flashback n. _152.previous adj. _153.uncertain adj. _154.guide n. vt. _155.tablet n. _156.expertise n. _157.capsule n. _158.steward n. _159.stewardess n. _160.opening n. _161.sideways adv. _162.surrounding n. adj. _163.tolerate vt_. 164.bination n. _165.lack vi. & vt. n. _166.adjustment n. _ 167.mask n. _168.be back on ones feet _169.hover vi. _170.carriage n. _171.press vi. & vt. n. _172.fasten vt. _173.belt n. _174.safety belt _175.lose sight of_176.sweep up _177.flash vt. & vi. _178.switch n. vt. _179.timetable n. _180.exhausted adj. _181.slide into _182.optimistic adj. _183.pessimistic adj. _184.speed up _185.pedal n. _186.alien n. adj. _187.mud n. _188.desert n. _189.enormous adj. _190.imitate vt. _191.moveable adj. _192.citizen n. _193.typist n. _194.typewriter n. _195.postage n. _196.postcode n. _197.button n. _198.instant n. adj. _ 199.receiver n. _200.efficiency n. _201.efficient adj. _202.ribbon n. _203.dustbin n. _204.dispose vt. _205.disposal n. _206.ecology n. _207.greedy adj. _208.swallow vt. _209.material n. _210.recycle vt. _211.manufacture vt. _212.goods n. _213.etc abbr. _214.representative n. adj. _ 215.settlement n_216.motivation n. _二、閱讀理解APollutions great effects on the environment have bee more obvious in recent years, leading to a movement to promote energy efficiency（效率）,less reliance on fossil（化石) fuels, and a reduction in air and water pollution. Most scientists agree that such changes are necessary to protect our environment from further harm.The construction industry consumes a large quantity of energy and resources and creates a huge amount of pollution. In the United States, building and development account for 39% of the countrys total energy use, 12% of total water consumption,68% of total electricity consumption and 38% of carbon dioxide emissions（二氧化碳排放）, according to the Environment Protection Agency.Green buildings use less energy, water, create less waste, and are healthier to live, work, and go to school in than standard buildings. Builders of green buildings use techniques that use resources more efficiently during the entire building cycleconstruction, restoration, operation, maintenance（維護(hù)）and demolition（拆毀）than those who construct more regular buildings.The environmental benefits of building green include the protection of ecosystems（生態(tài)系統(tǒng)）and biodiversity, improved air and water quality, less waste flowing into streams, and the protection of natural resources. Green buildings can also result in lower operating costs because they typically use less energy and fewer materials and improve indoor air quality, improving the health of people who live in such buildings.The process of building green includes technical and artistic planning with nature protection in mind. Building designs often reflect the surrounding environment and natural resources and use renewable building materials such as bamboo and straw. In addition, recycled resources found locally are used for green buildings, reducing the cost and air pollution associated with transporting materials over long distances.Careful site selection is important to minimize（最小化）human impact on the surrounding environment. For example, placing a structure in an area that allows it to take advantage of cool breezes（微風(fēng)）and sunlight can reduce energy use and expenses. More energy and expense are needed for larger buildings as well, so it is important to build small.Green roofs are another feature of green houses that reduce energy use and cost. These roofs are partly or pletely covered with plants, which helps to keep heating and cooling costs, prevent water running off and deal with pollutants.Other features of green buildings often include energy and water conservation, recycling, and waste reduction. In addition, renewable energy sources such as solar power, hydropower（水能）and wind power are used for heat and electricity, which greatly reduces costs and decreases the impact on the environment.1.What is the text mainly about?A. The necessity of promoting energy efficiency.B. The process of building green buildings.C. The benefits and features of green buildings.D. Green buildings effects on the environment.2.According to the text, green buildings refer to the buildings that_.A. produce no wasteB. only use clean energyC. are made of recycled materialsD. use energy and resources more efficiently3.Which of the following statements is TRUE about green buildings?A.

The ecosystem has to be considered when building a green building.D. They are difficult to maintain and thus need more operating costs.4.Why are green roofs used ?A. They fit the surrounding environment wellB. They are cheaper than other kinds of roofsC. They can keep natural water for use in everyday lifeD. They can help to control the temperature in the building well【文章大意】在本文中作者主要分析了green building的諸多好處和對環(huán)境的巨大的保護(hù)作用，呼吁人們多建設(shè)這樣的綠色的建筑。1.C 【解析】主旨大意題。本文第三段中Green buildings use less energy, water, create less waste, and are healthier to live, work, or go to school in than standard buildings.

Her head hangs down and her strong arms let go as she balances on her back, high above the grounda move that is all the more daring because she has no legs.Jennifer was a few months old when she was adopted by Sharon and Gerald Bricker. She had big brown eyes, a bright smile, and huge amounts of energy. When a doctor advised her adoptive parents to carry her around in a kind of bucket(桶), they refused.Jennifer soon learned to walkand runon her hands and bottom, and grew up fearlessly climbing trees and bouncing on the trampoline(蹦床) with her three older brothers. “My parents didnt treat me differently so I didnt grasp the concept that I was different. I knew I didnt have legs but that wasnt stopping me from doing the things I wanted to do.”At the age of three she was fitted with artificial legs, but she never really took to themshe moved more freely without them.In 1996 the Olympic Games took place in Atlanta. Jennifer loved to watch the womens gymnastics team, and especially adored the 14yearold Dominique Moceanu who peted for the US. When Moceanu and the womens team won the gold, Jennifer decided she was going to be a gymnast, too. She took up power tumbling, which involves performing floor exercises down a runway. But Jennifer did not want any allowances to be made for her disability.At the age of 10 she took part in the Junior Olympics and by age 11 she was the tumbling champion for the state of Illinois.Jennifer now travels the world as an inspirational speaker and acts as an aerial performer.【解題導(dǎo)語】本文是一篇人物記敘文。Jennifer Bricker天生無腿，但在自己的努力下，她參加了青少年奧運(yùn)會，并成為世界著名的勵志演講家和空中表演演員。1What do we know about Jennifer Bricker?AShe felt embarrassed without legs.BShe was brought up as a normal child.CShe was carried in a bucket as a baby.DShe lost her legs when she was adopted.B解析：細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段中的“My parents didnt treat me differently so I didnt grasp the concept that I was different.”可知，Jennifer的父母對待她和對待其他孩子沒有什么不同，她也沒有覺得她和其他孩子有什么差異；結(jié)合第三段的第三句“When a doctor advised her adoptive parents to carry her around in a kind of bucket(桶), they refused.”可知，她的父母拒絕了醫(yī)生的建議。據(jù)此可知，她是像正常的孩子那樣被帶大的，故B項正確。2Why did Jennifer determine to be a gymnast?AShe knew that she was different from others.BShe wanted to make allowances for her disability.CShe was eager to participate in the Junior Olympics.DShe was greatly influenced by Dominique Moceanu.D解析：細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第六段中的“Jennifer loved to watch the womens gymnastics team, and especially adored the 14yearold Dominique Moceanu who peted for the US.
