Unit 5 Music 李仕才 一、阅读理解 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 didn't 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 Goldberger's 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 Goldberger's 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.‎ ‎1．Who were easy targets of pellagra according to Goldberger?‎ A．People in America.‎ B．People put into prison.‎ C．People having a poor diet.‎ D．People touching pellagra patients.‎ ‎2．What did Goldberger want to prove by the experiments mentioned in Paragraph 4?‎ 8‎ A．Pellagra wasn't so terrible.‎ B．Pellagra didn't spread.‎ C．Pellagra could be cured.‎ D．Pellagra wasn't a medical problem.‎ ‎3．Which words can be used to describe Goldberger?‎ A．Devoted and determined.‎ B．Selfless and friendly.‎ C．Patient and expert.‎ D．Stubborn and enthusiastic.‎ ‎【解题导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了美国医生Joseph Goldberger研究糙皮病的患病原因的过程。Joseph Goldberger医生的认真、牺牲精神令人感动。‎ ‎【难句分析】The doctor came to believe that the disease didn't pass on from one to another，but was instead related to food.‎ 分析：本句是一个含有that引导的宾语从句的主从复合句。that 从句中，but连接两个并列的谓语。‎ 译文：这位医生渐渐相信这种病不是传染性的，而是与食物有关。‎ ‎1．C　考查细节理解。根据第二段中的“Most of the people lived a hard life...the disease didn't pass on from one to another，but was instead related to food”，再结合Goldberger在监狱进行的实验的内容可知，在Joseph Goldberger看来，糙皮病和食物有关，而且患者大多生活条件差；再结合实验中提到的主要吃玉米制品的犯人最后患上了该病可知，不良的饮食容易导致人们患糙皮病。‎ ‎2．B　考查推理判断。根据第二段中提到的Goldberger认为糙皮病不是传染病以及第四段中提到的他为了证明自己的观点而进行的实验的内容(将患糙皮病的人的血液注射到自己的体内、将糙皮病病人的鼻腔和口腔中的液体放入自己的鼻腔和口腔以及吞咽含有糙皮病病人的皮肤组织的药丸)和结果(他没患病)可推知，Goldberger进行实验是为了证明糙皮病不传染。‎ ‎3．A　考查推理判断。文中提到的Goldberger在监狱及在他自己身上做实验的内容表明他全心全意地投入到对糙皮病的研究中，有奉献精神；尽管一些人不认可Goldberger的观点，但他仍坚持自己的看法并坚决地去证明自己的观点是正确的，这体现出他意志坚定。故选A。‎ 二、单句语法填空 ‎1．The meeting didn't break ________until noon.‎ 答案：up　break up “结束；解散”。‎ ‎2．She buried her head under the covers, ________(pretend) to be asleep.‎ 8‎ 答案：pretending　此处She与pretend之间是主动关系，且pretend表示的动作几乎与谓语动词所表示的动作同时发生，故用现在分词pretending作伴随状语。‎ ‎3．The process is ________(pain), but the result is desirable. Remember: no pains, no gains.‎ 答案：painful　此处形容词painful “痛苦的”，作表语。‎ ‎4．She was efficient and ________(rely), so we all liked her very much.‎ 答案：reliable　此处形容词reliable “可靠的”，作表语。‎ ‎5．He was full of ________(confident) that he would be admitted to the famous university.‎ 答案：confidence　full of confidence “充满信心”。‎ ‎6．It is hard for migrant workers ________(earn) a living, especially during the present financial crisis.‎ 答案：to earn　此处to earn a living是不定式短语作主语，句首It是形式主语。‎ ‎7．The old are very ________(attach) to old customs and habits.‎ 答案：attached　be attached to “依恋……”。‎ ‎8．Tom and his twin sisters are going to put on a ________ (perform) tomorrow evening.‎ 答案：performance　put on a performance “演出”。‎ ‎9．To be great, you must be smart, confident, and, ________all, honest.‎ 答案：above　above all为固定短语，意为“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　本空需要关系代词引导非限制性定语从句，句子还原后的表达是one of its purposes is to relieve worldwide starvation，这里把作定语的人称代词its改为whose，引导定语从句并在从句中作定语，指代前面的名词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 2015－16 season via a letter poem.
