考点强化练13(必修3　Unit 3)‎ ‎　考点强化练第25页　 ‎ Ⅰ.阅读理解 A ‎(2017·浙江五校联考)‎ Filled with much housework,meals and childcare at home,many people feel that being at work sounds more like having a picnic.Even for those who have a happy family life,they feel actually more stressed at home than at work.‎ Recently,a study carried out by the researchers at a university in the USA found lower levels of hormone(荷尔蒙) released in response to stress in a majority of subjects when they were at work compared to when they were at home.This was true for both men and women,and parents and people without children.‎ Both men and women showed less stress at work.But women are more likely to report feeling happier there.Men were more likely to feel happier at home.Experts say there are other reasons why work is less stressful than home for many.“Paid work is more valued in society,” said Sarah Damaske,the lead researcher on the study,“Household work is boring and not particularly rewarding.”‎ We get better at our job with time and the increased competence means less stress and more rewards.Yet none of us,no matter how long we’ve been doing it,ever truly feels like an expert at parenting or even at marriage.‎ The support and friendship of co-workers also offer stress relief.At home,meanwhile,stress spreads and increases quickly.“That’s the reason why most housewives wish they were the bread earners,” Dr.Damaske says.‎ Much of the advice to families and couples includes the warning to “leave work stress at office” and even to change our mind-set from work to home,for example,a walk around the block.The recent findings,though,suggest our home life,not our attitude,might be due for some change.‎ ‎【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了人们更愿意在外上班而不愿在家做家务这一社会现象,并对这一现象进行了分析,给出了解决方法。‎ ‎1.According to Paragraph 1,many people feel that being at home 　　　. ‎ A.is like having a picnic B.is an ideal way to manage stress C.offers greater relaxation than at work D.can bring more stress than in the workplace 答案D 解析细节理解题。根据文章第一段可知,对于整天忙于做家务,做饭,照顾孩子的人来说,他们更愿意在外工作,在外工作压力小并且更像在野外聚餐一样心情放松。故选D项。‎ ‎2.According to Sarah Damaske,　　　. ‎ A.men feel happier at work than women B.parents without children tend to feel happier C.household work is not as rewarding as work on a job D.both men and women feel happier at home than at work 答案C 解析细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Paid work is more valued in society,” said Sarah Damaske,the lead researcher on the study,“Household work is boring and not particularly rewarding.”可知,做家务不如上班有成就感。故选C项。‎ ‎3.What can make people feel happy at work?‎ A.Recognition of the value of their work.‎ B.A good management of their marriage.‎ C.Much competition among colleagues.‎ D.Forgetting the stress from family life.‎ 答案A 解析推理判断题。根据文章第四段可知,在工作中能获得成就感和别人的认同感,而在家没有这种感觉。故选A项。‎ ‎4.According to the recent findings,what should we change to solve the problem mentioned?‎ A.Our attitude.　　　　　 　B.Our home life.‎ C.Our mind-set. D.Our working style.‎ 答案B 解析细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“The recent findings,though,suggest our home life,not our attitude,might be due for some change.”可知,我们应该改变我们的家庭生活。故选B项。‎ ‎〚导学号29402077〛‎ B ‎“Did you hear what happened to Adam last Friday?”Lindsey whispers to Tori.‎ With her eyes shining,Tori brags,“You bet I did.Sean told me two days ago.”‎ Who are Lindsey and Tori talking about?It just happens to be yours truly,Adam Freedman.I can tell you that what they are saying is (a) not nice and (b) not even true.Still,Lindsey and Tori aren’t very different from most students here at Linton High School,including me.Many of our conversations are gossip(闲话).I have noticed three effects of gossip:it can hurt people,it can give gossipers a strange kind of satisfaction,and it can cause social pressures in a group.‎ An important negative effect of gossip is that it can hurt the person being talked about.Usually,gossip spreads information about a topic-breakups,trouble at home,even dropping out-that a person would rather keep secret.The more embarrassing or shameful the secret is,the juicier the gossip it makes.Probably the worst type of gossip is the absolute lie.People often think of gossipers as harmless,but cruel lies can cause pain.‎ If we know that gossip can be harmful,then why do so many of us do it?The answer lies in another effect of gossip:the satisfaction it gives us.Sharing the latest rumor(传言) can make a person feel important ‎ because he or she knows something that others don’t.Similarly,hearing the latest rumor can make a person feel like part of the “in group.”In other words,gossip is satisfying because it gives people a sense of belonging or even superiority(优越感).‎ Gossip also can have a third effect:it strengthens unwritten,unspoken rules about how people should act.Professor David Wilson explains that gossip is important in policing behaviors in a group.Translated into high school terms,this means that if everybody you hang around with is laughing at what John wore or what Jane said,then you can bet that wearing or saying something similar will get you the same kind of negative attention.The do’s and don’ts conveyed through gossip will never show up in any student handbook.‎ The effects of gossip vary depending on the situation.The next time you feel the urge to spread the latest news,think about why you want to gossip and what effects your“juicy story” might have.‎ ‎【语篇导读】本文共387词,是一篇说明文。文章首先通过一则实例,引出本文说明的话题“闲话”,然后从三个方面具体说明了闲话的三个效用:给被传言人造成伤害;给制造谣传的人带来某种满足;给某个团体中的人带来某些社会压力。‎ ‎5.The author uses a conversation at the beginning of the passage to 　　　. ‎ A.introduce a topic B.present an argument C.describe the characters D.clarify his writing purpose 答案A 解析推理判断题。该题考查文章的写作技巧。作者开篇引用一则对话作为一个实例,用来引出“闲话”这一话题。第三段第五句“Many of our conversations are gossip(闲话).”,其中conversations为关键词,因为作者引用的就是一个conversation。因此选择A项。‎ ‎6.An important negative effect of gossip is that it 　　　. ‎ A.breaks up relationships B.embarrasses the listener C.spreads information around D.causes unpleasant experiences 答案D 解析细节理解题。第四段第一句“An important negative effect of gossip is that it can hurt the person being talked about.”中hurt一词和D项的“causes unpleasant experiences(造成不愉快的体验)”为同义替换。A项内容在文中没有提及;B项错在宾语the listener;C项不属于negative effect(负面效果)。‎ ‎7.In the author’s opinion,many people like to gossip because it 　　　. ‎ A.gives them a feeling of pleasure B.helps them to make more friends C.makes them better at telling stories D.enables them to meet important people 答案A 解析细节理解题。第五段第二句“The answer lies in another effect of gossip: the satisfaction it gives us.”中satisfaction和A项中:a feeling of pleasure为同义替换。B、C、D三项都是毫无根据的说法。‎ ‎8.Professor David Wilson thinks that gossip can 　　　. ‎ A.provide students with written rules B.help people watch their own behaviors C.force schools to improve student handbooks D.attract the police’s attention to group behaviors 答案B 解析推理判断题。题源句在文章第六段。解决该题的关键是正确理解Professor David Wilson的观点“...that gossip is important in policing behaviors in a group”。police在此处的意思是“监督”,和B项中的watch有语义上的联系。另外根据该段后半部分的解释可以知道:所谣传别人的事情,也正是自己力求避免的东西。因此可以推断出团体中的人自觉地根据自己的观察来自律自己的行为。A项错在written一词;C项说法没有依据;D项中police一词属于对动名词policing 的曲解。‎ ‎9.What advice does the author give in the passage?‎ A.Never become a gossiper.‎ B.Stay away from gossipers.‎ C.Don’t let gossip turn into lies.‎ D.Think twice before you gossip.‎ 答案D 解析推理判断题。在文章最后一段中,作者首先说明了“闲话的作用因情势不同而有所变化(vary)”,同时用“The next time...”给出具体建议“一定要考虑清楚你为什么说闲话以及你的闲话可能造成的影响”。原文中think about 和D项中的think twice为同义替换,是告诉人们在说闲话前要三思而后行。‎ Ⅱ.完形填空 My husband and I were enjoying wandering through the stores in a shopping center.We went into a shop that sold 　1　 items in hopes of finding a few last-minute 　2　 gifts.The pleasant smell of handmade soaps teased our 　3　 as we

C.handmade D.wholesale 答案C 解析根据下文“The pleasant smell of handmade soaps teased...”可知,“我”和丈夫走进了一家卖手工制品的商店。second-hand“二手的”;online exchanged“网上交换的”;hand made“手工制作的”;wholesale“批发的”。故C项符合题意。‎ ‎2.A.Christmas B.birthday C.New Year D.children 答案A 解析根据第二段第三句中的“I enjoyed looking at other items some salesmen in Santa Clauses”可知,“我们”去购买圣诞节礼物。故A项符合题意。‎ ‎3.A.noses B.eyes C.minds D.mouths 答案A 解析根据空格前的“pleasant smell of handmade soaps”可知,手工香皂的香味扑面而来。气味只能通过鼻子来感觉。故A项符合题意。‎ ‎4.A.chose B.noticed C.recognized D.touched 答案B 解析根据下文“a wooden plaque(牌匾) hanging on a wall.I turned to take...”可知,“我”注意到一面墙上挂了一幅牌匾。故B项符合题意。‎ ‎5.A.greedy B.soulful C.quick D.second 答案D 解析上文提到,“我”注意到墙上的牌匾,所以这里“我”是又看了一次,应是第二次看它。故选D项。‎ ‎6.A.but B.and C.so D.or 答案A 解析考查连词辨析。根据上文可知,“我”在这家商店里走着,欣赏着装扮成圣诞老人的销售人员拿着的其他产品;下文又提到最后“我”发现自己还是被那块牌匾所吸引。此处but表示转折。‎ ‎7.A.looking through B.referring to C.digging through D.adjusting to 答案C 解析根据下文“treasure:a shiny coin or a lost toy”可知,站在牌匾的前面,“我”感觉自己像一个挖通沙坑、发现了一些意想不到的宝藏的小孩。故C项符合题意。‎ ‎8.A.unbelievable B.unfortunate C.unexpected D.unusual 答案C 解析根据语境可知,此处指意想不到的宝物。unbelievable“难以置信的”;unfortunate“不幸的”;unexpected“意想不到的”;unusual “不同寻常的”。故C项符合题意。‎ ‎9.A.late B.secret C.new D.simple 答案D 解析根据语境可知,在其他的手工制品中,“我”发现了一个非常简单,然而却触动心灵的隐藏在信息里的宝藏。故D项符合题意。‎ ‎10.A.walk B.enjoy C.dance D.relax 答案C 解析根据文章最后一段中“learning to dance in the rain”可知,此处指学会在雨中跳舞。‎ ‎11.A.troubles B.conditions C.problems D.instructions 答案B 解析考查名词辨析。根据下文列举的事例可知,此处指日常生活中幸福的条件。故B项符合题意。‎ ‎12.A.paid off B.given off C.taken off D.put off 答案A 解析根据上文“get the house”可知,只有pay off可与之搭配,意为“还清了房子的欠款”。故A项符合题意。‎ ‎13.A.fall B.settle C.get D.break 答案B 解析根据语境可知,当“我们”和孩子们一起定居下来,“我们”才会在一起做更多的事情。fall down意为“倒下”;settle down意为“定居下来”;get down意为“拿下,使沮丧”;break down意为“发生故障”。故B项符合题意。‎ ‎14.A.more B.little C.much D.easy 答案B 解析根据语境可知,此处指在不稳定中,生活少有快乐。故B项符合题意。‎ ‎15.A.moved B.slipped C.worn D.kept 答案B 解析根据下文“off my shoes and stockings”可知,“我”脱下鞋袜站在小雨中。故B项符合题意。‎

解析根据上文可知,“我”脱掉了鞋和袜子,因此“我”光脚在雨中穿行。故选barefoot。‎ ‎18.A.last B.first C.foolish D.smart 答案A 解析结合上文可知,“我”脱掉了鞋袜在雨中行走会让“我”的邻居认为“我”失去了最后的理智。故A项符合题意。‎ ‎19.A.regularly B.immediately C.socially D.definitely 答案D 解析根据上文“I think I am.I know I try to.”可知,“我”确实在花时间来感恩围绕在“我”周围的祝福。故D项符合题意。‎ ‎20.A.back and forth B.now and then C.little by little D.at a time 答案D 解析根据上下文可知,一步一步地,“我”学会了在雨中跳舞。故D项符合题意。‎ ‎〚导学号29402078〛‎
