选修六 Unit 1 课下语篇提能练
Ⅰ.阅读理解
(2019·南昌市一模)Alongside air and water, food is a necessity for human beings to survive and thrive. But it's a lot more than that. As Mariette Dichristina of Scientific American wrote, “The most intimate (亲密的) relationship we will ever have is not with any fellow human being. Instead, it is between our bodies and our food.”
Nowadays, for most people in the world's wealthiest countries, food is a hobby, an enthusiasm, and even something fashionable.
Turn on the TV in the US, UK or France, and you'll find at least one channel feeding this popular obsession.
And most of us know at least one person who thinks of themselves as a “foodie”. It's almost impossible nowadays to check our social media apps without at least two or three photos of delicious meals appearing on our screen.
But behind the fancy recipes and social media bragging (夸耀), many of us forget how much we take food for granted. This is why World Food Day is held each year.
Take Kenya for example. This east African nation has been suffering terrible droughts. The result is that people are beginning to starve. Children in particular are suffering, with some of them even dying.
This may seem shocking to know, especially as many cultures outside of Africa think of food in a completely different way. But even in the UK, families on low incomes are forced to use food banks — European organizations that hand out donated food to those who can't afford to pay for it themselves.
So what can we do on World Food Day? One good way to spend it would be to feel humble and appreciate what we have. After all, food is essential for survival, but not everyone is as lucky as we are when it comes to dinner time.
语篇解读:本文是一篇议论文。许多人将美食当作嗜好,他们在社交媒体上晒美食照片,享受着美味食品,认为美食是理所当然的,但是他们并没有想到在世界的许多地方人们还忍饥挨饿,这就是世界粮食日成立的原因。珍惜粮食,从我做起!
1.According to Mariette Dichristina, what has the closest relationship with us?
A.Air. B.Water.
C.Food. D.Human beings.
解析:选C 细节理解题。根据第一段中Mariette Dichristina所写的“The most intimate (亲密的) relationship we will ever have is not with any fellow human being. Instead, it is between our bodies and our food.”可知,我们最亲密的关系不是人与人之间的关系,而是我们的身体和食物之间的关系;据此可知,Mariette Dichristina认为和我们关系最亲密的是食物,故C项正确。
2.What does the underlined word “foodie” in Paragraph 4probably mean?
A.Delicious food. B.A person fond of food.
C.A social media app. D.A photo of delicious meals.
解析:选B 词义猜测题。根据第四段中的第二句“It's almost impossible nowadays to check our social media apps without at least two or three photos of delicious meals appearing on our screen.”可知,这些人最喜欢在社交媒体软件上晒美食照片;结合画线词所在句子中的“thinks of themselves as a ‘foodie’”可以判断,该处画线词指人,故foodie意为“美食爱好者”,故B项正确。
3.Who can get help from food banks?
A.Poor people in the UK.
B.Poor people in Africa.
C.Starving children in Kenya.
D.People in the droughtstricken.
解析:选A 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的最后一句“But even in the UK, families on low incomes are forced to use food banks ...who can't afford to pay for it themselves.”可知,即使是在英国,低收入家庭也被迫要使用食物银行;该组织是一个向那些无钱购买食物的人捐赠食物的欧洲组织。据此可知,贫穷的英国人可以获得食物银行的帮助,故A项正确。
4.What's the best title for the text?
A.Treat Food as a Hobby
B.Time to Appreciate Food
C.Food Shortage in Some Countries
D.How to Spend World Food Day
解析:选B 标题归纳题。通读全文可知,许多人将美食当作嗜好,他们在社交媒体软件上晒美食照片,享受着美味食品,但是他们并没有想到在世界的许多地方人们还忍饥挨饿,这就是世界粮食日成立的原因。据此推断,B项正确。

语篇解读:作者通过去西安参加一个培训课程的经历,增强了对中国文化的了解,并感叹文化是不分国界和种族的。
1.ladies 考查名词复数。数词two后应接可数名词的复数形式,故填ladies。
2.when 考查状语从句。句意:八月初,当我降落到咸阳国际机场时,那一天终于到来了。设空处引导时间状语从句,故填when。
3.felt 考查动词时态。根据从句时态提示词“landed”并结合语境可知,主句也应用一般过去时,故填felt。
4.waiting 考查非谓语动词。此处为“see+宾语+宾补”复合结构,wait与people之间为主动关系,且wait表示的动作正在进行,要用现在分词作宾补,故填waiting。
5.from 考查介词。设空处表示“来自……”,故填介词from。
6.and 考查连词。分析句子结构可知,句中不缺少成分,且空格前后是两个并列分句,且是递进关系,故填and。
7.badly 考查副词。修饰谓语动词have been missing应用副词,故填badly。
8.a 考查冠词。experience作“经历”讲时,是可数名词,因此此处用不定冠词表示泛指,故填a。
9.broaden 考查动词。不定式符号to后接动词原形,故填broaden,意为“增长;扩大”。
10.are tied 考查动词时态和语态。主语human beings是复数,与谓语动词tie之间为被动关系,且叙述的是一般事实,故填are tied。
Ⅳ.短文改错
