‎2019高考英语新课件二轮练习精品单元卷05(详细解析)‎ ‎ Unit 4-Unit5 (Book 7 )‎ ‎(试卷总分100分 考试时间100分钟)‎ 特别关注 本单元重点句型及结构:come across, otherwise, be used to, as far as等。本单元出现的语法为复习定语从句的用法,为历年高考考查的重点、难点和热点。‎ 关系副词的选择;只能用that的十三种情况;as和which引导的非限定性的定语从句;“介词+关系代词”引导的定语从句。‎ 第一部分:英语知识运用(共两节,满分40分)‎ 第一节:单项填空(共20小题:每小题1分,满分20分)‎ 从A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最正确选项。‎ ‎1.On my way home I _________an old friend of mine who came from Shanghai. ‎ ‎ A. come up B. come on C. come in D. come across 1. ‎【解析】选D。根据句子的意思只有come across才符合题意。“在回家的路上,偶然遇见来自上海的一位老朋友 2. When I was in the countryside, I ________getting up early. ‎ ‎ A. was used B. was used to C. used to D. didn't use to 2. ‎【解析】选B。 Was used to表示“习惯于”,to 是介词后接doing。‎ ‎3. Nearly________ of the surface of our planet is covered by water.‎ A. seven-ten B. seven-tenth C. seven-tenths D. seventh-ten ‎3.【解析】选C。此题是数词用法的考查。分数词的分子是基数词,分母是序数词。分子除了1以外,分母的序数词要用复数。‎ ‎4. You must have waited here for a long time ,___________you?‎ A. mustn't B. didn't C. haven't D. hadn't ‎4【解析】选C。此题是反意疑问句的考查。must的反意疑问句不是对must进行反问,因为陈述句部分中有for a long time,所以对have waited进行反问。‎ ‎5. China has hundreds of islands, ___________ is Taiwan Island.‎ A. among them the largest B. and the largest of which C. and the largest of them D. but in which the largest ‎5【解析】选C。此题是复合句的考查,and连接两个并列句。‎ ‎6. --You don't look so well, Mary. What's the matter with you?‎ ‎--Why?___________. ‎ A. I'm quite myself B. Fine, think you ‎ C. I felt bad D. I'm not myself ‎6【解析】选A。此题是交际用语的考查。对话中why?是语气词,表示不同意的语气。I'm quite myself意为“自我感觉良好”。 ‎ ‎7. This new-type machine____________ little room.‎ A. takes up B. is taken up ‎ C. has been taken up D. is taking up‘‎ ‎7【解析】选A。此题是动词语态的考查。take up表示“占据”,此处指新式机器的优点。‎ ‎8. He___________ when the bus came to a sudden stop.‎ A. was almost hurt B. was to hurt himself C. was hurt himself D. was hurting himself ‎8【解析】选A。此题考查hurt的用法,hurt是及物动词,“伤害某人”用hurt+oneself;若hurt后未接名词,则必须用被动。类似的词还有:seat,dress等等。‎ ‎9. --You forgot your keys when you left home in the morning.‎ ‎--Good heavens,___________.‎ A. so did I. B. so I did. C. so you did. D. so did you.‎ ‎9【解析】选B此题是省略的用法考查。注意两人对话中的you和I是同一个人,所以用so +I+did。‎ ‎10. __________ it rain, the crops_____________.‎ A. Shall,would be saved B. Should, would be saved C. Would, should be safe D. Were, might be safe ‎10【解析】选B此题是虚拟语气和它的省略的考查。主从句谓语都是对将来情况的虚拟形式。if从句中如果出现should,had,were,可以省略if,将should,had,were倒装。‎ ‎11.We were astonished _______ the temple still in its original condition.‎ ‎ A.finding B.to find C.find D.to be found ‎11.【解析】选B。句意:我们吃惊地发现那座庙仍然还是原来的状况。‎ 在glad, surprised, sorry, angry, happy 等表情绪变化的形容词后要用不定式表原因,而不用分词,所以从B、 D中选,find 这个动作是逻辑主语主动发出的,所以要用不定式的主动形式,应选B。‎ ‎12..Alexander tried to get his work _______in the medical circles.‎ ‎ A. to recognize B. recognizing C. recognize D. recognized ‎12.【解析】选D。句意:亚历山大试图让他的工作在医学圈内得到认可。宾语work和recognize之间存在被动关系,所以用过去分词作宾语补足语。‎ ‎13.I have a lot of readings _____ before the end of this term.‎ ‎ A. completing B. to complete ‎ C. completed D. being completed A. ‎【解析】选B。句意为:这个学期结束前,我要做很多阅读练习。由于时间状语before the end of this term表达未来的时间,所以空格处使用动词不定式表示将来,充当readings的定语。‎ ‎14. The residents were warned of high temperatures and strong winds of forecast for Friday, ___________could make the still-burning wildfires more dangerous. ‎ A. when B. which C. that D. Where ‎14.【解析】选B。非限制性定语从句中缺少主语, 排除A、C和D项, 应选B。‎ ‎15. As a result of our serious staffing shortages, the situation has arisen _______we have to hire graduating college students for help. ‎ A. that B. when C. where D. as ‎15.【解析】选C。先行词为situation而且定语从句中缺少地点状语, 故用where。that和as为关系代词, 在定语从句中作主语或宾语, when在定语从句中作时间状语。‎ ‎16. I hope the little _______I have been able to do will do good to the partnership between us two schools. ‎ ‎ A. which B. that C. what D. as ‎16.【解析】选B。先行词为little, 而定语从句中do缺少宾语, 因此只能用that。‎ ‎17. As a coach, you should know clearly about the direction __________your team should develop. ‎ ‎ A. to which B. in which ‎ C. on which D. for which ‎17.【解析】选B。根据先行词direction判断, 介词用in。in the direction意为“朝……方向”, 故用in which。‎ ‎18. Pointing to the house on _______roof grew lots of bush, the old man told me that was ________I would stay. ‎ ‎ A. its; what B. whose; what ‎ C. whose; where D. its; where 14. ‎【解析】选C。考查定语从句和表语从句。第一空为定语从句, 且从句中缺少定语, 排除A和D项。第二空为表语从句, 且从句中stay为不及物动词, 故排除B项。‎ ‎19. —Is there a hospital here? ‎ ‎ —No, but there________. ‎ ‎ A. would B. used to ‎ C. used to be D. ought to 15. ‎【解析】选C。考查省略用法。——这里有医院吗? ——没有, 但这里曾经有过一家医院。there used to be后面省略了a hospital。‎ 16. ‎.Why do we have to________ Sue’s selfish behavior? We should teach her to care for others. ‎ ‎ A. make up for B. split up ‎ C. put up with D. get rid of ‎20.【解析】选C。句意为: 为什么我们必须容忍Sue的自私行为呢?我们应该教会她关心别人。make up for弥补; split up分离; put up with容忍; get rid of去掉。根据句意可知C项正确。‎ 第二节:完形填空(共20小题;第小题1分,满分20分)‎ 阅读下面短文,从短文后所给各题的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出可以填入空白处的最正确答案。‎ The simplest way to say it is this: I believe in my mother.

He was the man who lived with my grandmother for thirty years. He was not my grandfather, but an Italian who came down the road one day, selling fruit in Florida.‎ Jack stopped at my grandmother’s house to sell her some oranges just a stone’s throw from downtown Miami, and he was delivering her whiskey a week later. He stayed for thirty years. Jack hated the front yard because he thought it was against him. There had been a beautiful lawn(草坪) there when Jack came along, but he let it wander off into nothing. He refused to water it or take care of it in any way.‎ Now the ground was so hard that it gave his car flat tires(轮胎) in the summer. The yard was always finding a nail to put in one of his tires or the car as always sinking out of sight in the winter when the rains came on. The lawn had belonged to my grandfather, who lived out the end of his life in an insane hospital. It had been his pride and joy and was said to be the place where his powers came.‎ ‎41. It can be inferred that the real reason Jack had problems with the yard was that _______.‎ A. he didn’t like the lawn.‎ B. the author’s grandfather was against Jack working on the lawn C. the lawn was full of living things D. he himself did not take care of the lawn ‎42. We can learn from the passage that when the lawn belonged to the author’s grandfather, it had been _______.‎ A. beautiful B. worn out C. wasted D. full of nails ‎43. What do we know about Jack and the author’s grandfather?‎ A. They both hated the front lawn.‎ B. Jack was jealous of the author’s grandfather.‎ C. They sold fruit in Florida.‎ D.

Johnson nodded his smooth, dark head. That was something he knew very well. “I’ve never seen anything like it,” the manager admitted. Johnson nodded again. “No?” he said politely. Then he added, “But I think you will, sir. A very great deal of it.” He appeared to think for a moment. “I think you will find it will be on sale seven, perhaps, eight years from now.” He smiled.‎ The manager thought that was uncertain. He said, “It is better than our fish oils. I admit that.” “So I am told, sir,” agreed Johnson.‎ ‎“Have you any plans to produce it yourself, Mr Johnson?” ‎ Johnson smiled again. “Would I be showing it to you if I had?” ‎ ‎“We might add some chemicals to one of our own fish oils,” said the manager.‎ ‎“It would be expensive to do that, even if you could.” Johnson said gently. “Besides,” he added, “I am told that this oil will be much cheaper than your best fish oils. Cheaper than any vegetable oil, in fact.” ‎ ‎“Perhaps,” said the manager. “Well, I suppose you want to make an arrangement, Mr Johnson, Shall we discuss it?” ‎ ‎“Of course,” said Johnson. “There are two ways of dealing with a situation of this sort. The usual one is to prevent it altogether or at least to delay it as long as possible. That is, of course, the best way,” The manager nodded. He knew plenty about all that.‎ ‎“But I am so sorry for you, because, you see, that is not possible this time.” The manager had his doubts, but all he said was an inquiring(asking), “Oh?” ‎ ‎“The other way,” continued Johnson, “is to produce yourself before the trouble starts.” ‎ ‎44. The manager thought of adding chemicals to the fish oil to make it ________. ‎ A. cheaper than the new oil B. more quickly C. more expensive D. as good as the new oil ‎45. Johnson’s new oil would be ________. ‎ A. more expensive than fish oil, but better B. less expensive, and better ‎ C. less expensive, but not good D. more expensive, and not so good ‎46.

Teaching children to read is not passing reading on to them. It is certainly not endless hours spent in activities about reading. Douglas insists that “reading cannot be taught directly and schools should stop trying to do the impossible”. ‎ Teaching and learning are two entirely different processes. They differ in kind and function. The function of teaching is to create the conditions and the climate that will make it possible for children to plan cleverly the most efficient(有效的) system for teaching themselves to read. Teaching is also a public activity: It can be seen and observed. ‎ Learning to read involves all that each individual does to understand the world of printed language. Almost all of it is private, for learning is an occupation of the mind, and that process is not open to public scrutiny. ‎ If teacher and learner roles are not interchangeable, what then can be done through teaching that will aid the child in the long search for knowledge? Smith has one principle rule for all teaching instructions. “Make learning to read easy, which means making reading a meaningful, enjoyable and frequent experience for children.” ‎ When the roles of teacher and learner are seen for what they are, and when both teacher and learner fulfill them properly, then much of the pressure and feeling of failure for both is got rid of. Learning to read is made easier when teachers create an environment where children are given the chance to solve the problem of learning to read by learning. ‎ ‎48. The problem with the reading course as mentioned in the first paragraph is that_______. ‎ A. too much time is spent in teaching about reading ‎ B. reading tasks are given with little guidance ‎ C. it is one of the most difficult school courses ‎ D. students spend limited hours in reading ‎ ‎49. The teaching of reading will be successful if _______. ‎ A. teachers can make their teaching activities observable ‎ B. teachers can teach their students how to read ‎ C. teachers can improve conditions at school for the students ‎ D. teachers can enable students to develop their own way of reading ‎ ‎50. The word “scrutiny” (Paragraph 3) most probably means “_______”. ‎ A. unbelief B. control C. inquiry D. observation ‎ ‎51. The main idea of the passage is that_______.‎ A. reading is more complicated than believable ‎ B. reading ability is something gained rather than taught ‎ C. teachers should encourage students to read as widely as possible ‎ D. teachers should do as little as possible in helping students learn to read ‎ ‎【答案解析】‎ ‎48.【解析】选A。推断题。根据文章第1段倒数第2句:在阅读活动方面并不是时间无休止的投入,也就是说:在阅读上花费的时间太多了。由此可推知此题答案为A。‎ ‎49.【解析】选D。细节题。通读 Almost all of it is private, for learning is an occupation of the mind, and that process is not open to public scrutiny 可知,private 与 not open to public scrutiny 同义,据此可推知答案为D。‎ ‎50.【解析】选D。词义猜测题。根据上文private 及单词所在的语句not open to public scrutiny可知:它们同义,由此可推知此题答案为D。‎ ‎51.【解析】选B。主旨题。根据文章第1段第2句及全文内容可推知此题答案为B。‎ D With only about 1, 000 pandas left in the world, China is desperately trying to clone(克隆) the animal and save the endangered species(物种). That’s a move similar to what a Texas A & M University researchers have been undertaking for the past five years in a project called “Noah’s Ark”. www.7caiedu.cn Noah’s Ark is aimed at collecting eggs, embryos(胚胎), semen and DNA of endangered animals and storing them in liquid nitrogen. If certain species should become extinct, Dr. Duane Kraemer, a professor in Texas A & M’s College of Veterinary Medicine, says there would be enough of the basic building blocks to reintroduce the species in the future. ‎ It is estimated that as many as 2, 000 species of mammals, birds reptiles will become extinct in over 100 years. The panda, native only to China, is in danger of becoming extinct in the next 25 years. ‎ This week, Chinese scientists said they grew an embryo by introducing cells from a dead female panda into the egg cells of a Japanese white rabbit. They are now trying to implant the embryo into a host animal. ‎ The entire procedure could take from three to five years to complete. ‎ ‎“The nuclear transfer(核子移植) of one species to another is not easy, and the lack of available(capable of being used) panda eggs could be a major problem,” Kraemer believes. “They will probably have to do several hundred transfers to result in one pregnancy (having a baby). It takes a long time and it’s difficult, but this could be groundbreaking science if it works. They are certainly not putting any live pandas at risk, so it is worth the effort,” adds Kraemer, who is one of the leaders of the Project at Texas A& M, the first-ever attempt at cloning a dog. ‎ ‎“They are trying to do something that’s never been done, and this is very similar to our work in Noah’s Ark. We’re both trying to save animals that face extinction. I certainly appreciate their effort and there’s a lot we can learn from what they are attempting to do. It’s a research that is very much needed.” ‎ ‎52. The aim of “Noah’s Ark” project is to _______.‎ A. make efforts to clone the endangered pandas B. save endangered animals from dying out C. collect DNA of endangered animals to study D. transfer the nuclear of one animal to another ‎53. According to Professor Kraemer, the major problem in cloning pandas would be the lack of _______.‎ A. available panda eggs B. host animals www.7caiedu.cn C. qualified researchers D. enough money ‎54. The best title for the passage may be _______.‎ A. China’s Success in Pandas Cloning    ‎ B. The First Cloned Panda in the World ‎ C. Exploring the Possibility to Clone Pandas ‎ D. China —the Native Place of Pandas Forever ‎55. From the passage we know that _______.‎ A. Kraemer and his team have succeeded in cloning a dog ‎ B. scientists try to implant a panda’s egg into a rabbit ‎ C. Kraemer will work with Chinese scientists in clone researches ‎ D. about two thousand of species will probably die out in a century ‎【答案解析】‎ ‎52.【解析】选B。语义理解题。从第2段内容可知,“诺亚方舟”工程的目标是把濒临灭绝的动物的蛋(卵)、胚胎、精液和DNA储存在液体氮中,如果某一种动物濒临灭绝时,将来可以重现这一动物。‎ ‎53.【解析】选A。细节题。从第6段第1句话 The nuclear transfer(核子移植) of one species to another is not easy, and the lack of available (capable of being used ) panda eggs could be a major problem 可以做出正确判断。‎ ‎54.【解析】选C。主旨题。从文章内容来看,无论是中国还是世界克隆熊猫还没有成功,所以排除A、B项;D项内容明显与文章内容不符,故排除。所以“探索克隆熊猫的可能性”应该是这篇文章的标题。‎ ‎55.【解析】选 D。判断题。此题B项的干扰性较强,但由于它没有说明是Chinese scientists,所以应排除。A、C项明显与原文不符。根据文章第3段第1句可知答案非D莫属。‎ E ‎ Many people who work in London prefer to live outside it, and to go in to their offices or schools every day by train, car or bus, even though this means they have to get up early in the morning and reach home late in the evening. ‎ One advantage of living outside London is that houses are cheaper. Even a small flat in London without a garden costs quite a lot to rent. With the same money, one can get a little house in the country with a garden of one’s own. ‎ Then, in the country one can rest from the noise and hurry of the town. Even though one has to get up earlier and spend more time in trains or buses, one can sleep better at night and during weekends and on summer evenings, one can enjoy the fresh, clean air of the country. If one likes gardens, one can spend one’s free time digging, planting, watering and doing the hundred and one other jobs which are needed in a garden. Then, when the flowers and vegetables come up, one has the reward of one who has shared the secret of Nature. ‎ Some people, however, take no interest in country things: for them, happiness lies in the town, with its cinemas and theatres, beautiful shops and busy streets, dance-halls and restaurants. Such people would feel that their life was not worth living if they had to live it outside London. An occasional walk in one of the parks and a fortnight’s (two weeks) visit to the sea every summer is all the country they want: the rest they are quite prepared to leave to those who are glad to get away from London every night. ‎ ‎56. Which of the following statements is NOT true? ‎ A. People who like country things prefer to live outside the city. ‎ B. People who work in London prefer to live in the country. ‎ C. Because of certain disadvantages of living outside London, some people who work in ‎ London prefer to live inside London. ‎ D. Because of certain advantages of living outside London, many people who work in ‎ London prefer to live outside London. ‎ ‎57. One can use the same money for ________ to buy a little house with a garden in the country. ‎ A. getting a small flat with a garden B. having a small flat with a garden ‎ C. renting a small flat without a garden D. buying a small flat without a garden ‎ 13.
