Unit 5 Travelling abroad ‎ (建议用时：35分钟)‎ Ⅰ.阅读理解 A ‎(2020·太原一模)New Haven, Connecticut—A surprise awaited students in Yale who showed up for Professor Laurie Santos’s class. They got slips of paper that said, “No class today.” There was only one rule for the students’ unexpected free time—They were not allowed to study, but to relax. Since exams and papers were coming up, everyone was tired and stressed. At this moment they were touched. With around applause, nine students hugged Santos, and two burst into tears.‎ Yet, cancelling class was not just a break. It was also a challenge, as she was asking them to stop worrying about their grades, even if it was just an hour. One student went to the Yale University Art Gallery for the first time in her four years at Yale. A group of students went to a recording studio and played a new song. More people were outside, and more were smiling. That’s why about 1，200 students were taking Santos’s class, called “Psychology and the Good Life”， the largest class in Yale’s 317year history. Even nonYale students had the chance to take Santos’s class. It was offered as an online course and she immediately became an Internet hit.‎ Skyler Robinson, one of her students, was at a loss for a while about what to do during his break, and then decided to take a nap. “It was a great nap，” he commented. Santos designed the class after she realized that her students kept busy through long days that seemed far more depressing and joyless than her own college years. “They feel they’re in this crazy rat race. They’re working so hard that they can’t take a single hour off. That’s awful.”‎ The ideas behind the class are simple. Santos said, “It is the hope that science can help students find peace among all the stresses and difficulties they face at college.” The lessons include showing more gratitude, performing acts of kindness and increasing social connections. The students really wanted to learn to lead a happy life in a sciencedriven way. Santos also noted the psychological happening of “miswanting”， which led people to work towards the wrong goals in life.‎ One week, Santos asked students to exercise. Another week, she wanted them to 8‎ ‎ get more sleep. They worked hard to keep some new habits. Social science research led to many new understandings of how people find happiness. She thinks her class can change Yale, or rather, not just Yale.‎ ‎【解题导语】　耶鲁大学心理学教授Laurie Santos取消课程，让学生去放松。她这样做是希望科学能帮助学生在大学里面对压力和困难时找到平静。‎ ‎1．How did students respond to the cancelling class?‎ A．They expressed their concern.‎ B．They were at a loss what to do.‎ C．They showed gratitude to the teacher.‎ D．They were eager to study individually.‎ C　解析：细节理解题。根据第一段中的“At this moment they were touched.

New research from Monash University showed Aussie adults also widely supported the inclusion of technology, coding and artificial intelligence subjects in student curriculum to prepare them for future jobs.‎ Coauthor Professor Neil Selwyn, from Monash’s new Education Futures think tank, said the survey results of more than 2，000 Australians had taken himself and Dr. Deana Leahy by surprise.“The life skills—I wasn’t expecting that at all，” he said. Those quizzed were asked to rate the value of a list of subjects already in the curriculum, and were also given an open space to write what they think should be included. Prof. Selwyn said people called for schools to teach financial skills, budgeting, cooking and doing taxes.“You could argue that these are things people should be learning themselves, or learning from their families，” he said.“But we’ve got to be thinking forward in terms of the skills people will need for jobs and their ways of living.”‎ One respondent said schools should introduce a “contemporary life skills” subject：“A compulsory 1hour a week class on skills needed that parents seem continually unable to teach their kids”. Suggestions for the class included resume writing, filing tax returns and health claims. Another respondent called for students to be taught “general life skills” as unfortunately not enough kids will have parents to actually be bothered to educate them or simply parents don’t know themselves.‎ Of the subjects, maths was the highest ranked(75.5 percent), followed closely 8‎ ‎ by English(74.8 percent). And while science was the third highest ranked subject(46.2 percent), it was more strongly supported by those who earned higher wages and were universityeducated compared to lower income earners.‎ Aspects of school life considered least important were students having fun, learning about things that interested them and being given the opportunity to be creative.‎ ‎【解题导语】　本文是一篇说明文。来自莫纳什大学的新的研究表明，澳大利亚成年人广泛支持将科技、人工智能等科目引入学校课程，以让学生为他们未来的工作做好准备。‎ ‎5．Why did the adults suggest adding “life skills” to school curriculum?‎ A．To vary school curriculum.‎ B．To enrich students’ school life.‎ C．To prepare students for future work and life.‎ D．To save parents the trouble of educating kids.‎ C　解析：细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Aussie adults also widely supported the inclusion of...to prepare them for future jobs”，并结合该段内容可知，澳大利亚成年人支持将“生活技能”引入学校课程旨在让学生为他们未来的工作和生活做好准备，故C项正确。‎ ‎6．What did Prof. Selwyn think of the adults’ suggestions?‎ A．Reasonable. B．Ridiculous.‎ C．Interesting. D．Impractical.‎ A　解析：推理判断题。根据第二段中的“You could argue that...But we’ve got to be thinking forward in terms of the skills people will need for jobs and their ways of living.”可知，Selwyn教授认为成年人将“生活技能”引入学校课程的建议是合乎情理的，故A项正确。‎ ‎7．What does paragraph 3 focus on?‎ A．Differences of school subjects.‎ B．Reasons for the school survey.‎ C．Opinions from the surveyed.‎ D．Investigations of the respondents.‎ C　解析：段落大意题。根据第三段中的“One respondent said schools should introduce a ‘contemporary life skills’ subject”和“Another respondent called for students to be taught ‘general life skills’”可知，第三段主要介绍了被调查者的观点，故C项正确。‎ ‎8．What can we know from the text?‎ 8‎ A．The present curriculum is to adults’ taste.‎ B．Contemporary life skills involve resume writing.‎ C．Students’ interests have been greatly promoted.‎ D．The parents quizzed think well of school life.‎ B　解析：细节理解题。根据第三段中的“One respondent said schools should introduce a ‘contemporary life skills’ subject...included resume writing, filing tax returns and health claims.”可知，当代生活技能包括写简历、提交纳税申报单和健康索赔，故B项正确。‎ ‎【难句分析】　Those quizzed were asked to rate the value of a list of subjects already in the curriculum, and were also given an open space to write what they think should be included.‎ 分析：本句是一个主从复合句。本句中and连接两个并列结构，其中“what they think should be included”为what引导的宾语从句，作及物动词write的宾语。‎ 译文：那些被询问者被要求评估已经在课程中的科目清单的价值，并且也给予他们一个预留的空白处来写下他们认为应该包括的内容。‎ Ⅱ.七选五 ‎(2020·桂林、崇左联合模拟)“Conversation is the most sociable of all human activities.” I totally agree with this point.Conversation is the main part of everyone’s daily life.1.________ What’s more, good conversation is the most interesting part for us.In my view, you should pay attention to the following three issues to make good conversation.‎ To start a good conversation we’d better prepare some questions.2.________ We can ask some questions to show our politeness and care for others.Like, do you have a good sleep last night?
