课时跟踪练1 Unit 1 Friendship Ⅰ.阅读理解 A My doctor took me for a walk around the farm where she lives.I was physically and mentally exhausted and discouraged.‎ The farm was full of life.There were insects, horses, rabbits, and cats.She told me to focus on my body in the environment.When I was ill, I intended to escape from the reality.So I expected nothing when meeting the horse named Fira.‎ As I got closer to Fira, she nuzzled(用鼻子爱抚)her nose into my chest, putting a gentle pressure over my heart.Something happened inside me: I felt as if I had reached a wellspring(源泉)of my fears, hurts and failures.I began to melt emotionally in an uncommon way.I patted Fira's nose and breathed in her smell.Fira helped me feel loved and safe.After that, I began working with Fira often, learning basic communication and leading methods to work together with her.She connected with me by responding to my emotional state and reflecting it back to me in an open, friendly way.‎ In my meetings with Fira, I learned to live in the present, to focus on what was happening this day, at this moment, in this place.I learned to forget the past, with all its hurt.I learned to forget the future, which hadn't happened yet.I found deep peace in leading her along the path, by using my own power to judge whether to start, stop, turn left or turn right.I found inner quiet and even joy.My work with this horse was part of a journey out of a very dark night in my soul.‎ ‎1．What did the author think of Fira at the very beginning?‎ A．Grateful.　　 B．Interested.‎ C．Worried.

Well, this tree - 9 -‎ ‎ is simply more careful than the others.Whoever holds on to their leaves longer can do more photosynthesis and store more nutrients.However, the longer a tree keeps its leaves, the higher the risk of injury.‎ Not only do trees make their own decisions, they also learn from their mistakes.A tree, for example, keeping its leaves too long during one year will never make this mistake again.This leads to several other conclusions: trees must notice the temperature and the length of the day and be able to save their experiences somewhere.Obviously, trees don't have brains，but it is thought that in the sensitive tips of their roots they keep track of information and experiences.‎ But trees aren't only clever when it comes to caring for themselves.They also support each other whenever there's trouble by giving warnings and even taking care of sick and weak conspecifics (同种个体) with nutrients.For example, once the author found a very old tree stump, and its insides had rotted since a long time ago to topsoil.But the wood on the outside of the stump was still living.How was this possible? Well, the stump was nourished by its neighbours with nutrients from the root system，and this had been for at least 400 years!‎ Why do trees do such a thing？It's simple：It's better together.Trees need the forest；it protects them from storms，provides the right microclimate and warns them of attacks.‎ ‎5．Why does the author mention the three oak trees?‎ A．To illustrate trees can learn from experiences.‎ B．To show trees can make independent decisions.‎ C．To explain trees are quite supportive to each other.‎ D．To prove trees have the same personalities as humans.‎ ‎6．According to the text，which of the following can best describe the general features of trees?‎ A．Anxious and bold.‎ B．Smart and adventurous.‎ C．Helpful and wellbehaved.‎ D．Adaptable and supportive.‎ ‎7．What does the underlined phrase “do such a thing” mean?‎ A．Give warnings. B．Offer assistance.‎ C．Depend on others. D．Provide nutrients.‎ ‎8．Where does this text most probably come from?‎ - 9 -‎ A．A public lecture. B．A science book.‎ C．An experiment report. D．A travel journal.‎ ‎【语篇解读】　树也会培养自己的特性，了解自己的生存环境。它们不但会自己做决定，而且还会吸取以前的教训。同时，树木不但会照顾自己，而且还会互相照顾。‎ ‎5．解析：推理判断题。根据第三段第一句“Not only do trees make their own decisions，they also learn from their mistakes.”可知，树木不仅能自己做决定，而且还能吸取教训。故可知，上段作者提到三棵橡树是为了证明树能够自己做决定。故选B项。‎ 答案：B ‎6．解析：推理判断题。文章前两段讲述树木在成长过程中培养自己的特性，为了生存自己作决定；第三、四段讲述树木为生存吸取教训和互相照顾。故可推知，树木具有适应能力强和互相支持、互相照顾的特点。A项意为“焦虑的和大胆的”；B项意为“聪明的和爱冒险的”；C项意为“乐于助人的和行为端正的”；D项意为“适应能力强的和给予帮助的”。故选D项。‎ 答案：D ‎7．解析：词义猜测题。根据第四段中的“They also support each other whenever there's trouble by giving warnings and even taking care of sick and weak conspecifics with nutrients.”和后面的例子可知，树木在遇到困难时会互相帮助，互相支持。A项意为“发出警告”；B项意为“提供帮助”；C项意为“依靠他人”；D项意为“提供营养物质”。故选B项。‎ 答案：B ‎8．解析：推理判断题。本文是一篇科普说明文，文中说明了树木的一些特性，因此它最可能来自科学书籍。A项意为“一次公开的讲座”；B项意为“一本科学书”；C项意为“一份实验报告”；D项意为“一本旅游杂志”。故选B项。‎ 答案：B Ⅱ.完形填空 When you think of friends，you often think of those who accompany you for a long time.But there is another kind of 1 —one that does not unfold over a 2 period of time but springs entirely from a particular 3 ．‎ In my eighth grade，I had a friend called Jenny.I 4 to stay at her farmhouse with cats and dogs.Eighth grade was a terrible year.We both 5 it，but we didn't talk about it.On cold winter days，she 6 me how she lied on her pony Redwing's back.Then we would 7 on long journey，riding and walking.She left in ninth grade and I 8 her.We had gotten each other through a 9 time.‎ Anyone with children knows the rapid friendships formed with parallel parents.To Julie，I will be forever 10 ．We met on a 11 in New Jersey.Her twin boys were about ‎ - 9 -‎ the same 12 as my daughter.She lived in the beach town.I lived alone with my 13 a block away.My husband had left for North Dakota，leaving me to 14 out what to do next.Now, 15 ，there was someone I could talk to.For the next weeks，we met at the beach，and I would go 16 with her so that the 17 could go on playing.The normal state of her little home 18 my broken heart.‎ Such friends as these often 19 when your own life is off balance;
