Unit 5 Travelling abroad .阅读理解(2018浙江杭州二模)It is halfway through October.The sun arrives early and I stare out my window,feeling shame for invading (侵犯) the privacy of the homeless woman who has settled across the street.I am not sure when she first appeared,maybe a month ago.Each morning I watch as she gets out from the narrow space between the two large buildings across from mine.She wears the same dirty,badly torn dress every day.I can see she fights to pull herself up into a standing position.She fails on the first two or three tries,but determination always wins out.She remains leaning against the wall for several long minutes,appearing to gather the necessary strength needed to pick up her possessionsall packed into five plastic bags.With tears in my eyes,I watch as she places her feet pointing outward to avoid falling.Her steps are measured and cautious as she slowly makes her way to the corner and disappears.When I first noticed this woman,I went across the street and offered her 20 dollars,but she turned her back to me and pretended not to see me.The expression on her face was one of shame,causing me to feel guilty for invading her privacy.The next night I bought a hotdog and a Coke,and left them in the spot when she was not there.Feeling like a spy,I watched as she ate the hotdog like a starving cat that had not eaten for days.I too often find myself complaining about life,but when I look out my window and see the old woman,I feel the need to apologize for my foolish pride in not realizing how fortunate I really am.There are many poor people in my town.I have become familiar with many of their faces,and then suddenly they disappear.I know that one day the old woman will be gone and I will have no idea where she is.I fear that day.【语篇导读】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者通过对一位流浪老人的关注和帮助,产生了新的人生感悟。1.What is the main idea of Paragraph 2?A.Life is tough for the homeless woman.B.Poverty causes the womans poor health.C.The woman doesnt care about her appearance.D.Possessions mean much to the woman.答案A解析主旨大意题。文章第二段主要描述了流浪老人破烂的衣着、寒酸的家当以及行走的艰难等,由此可知,A项“流浪老人的生活充满了艰辛”最符合题意。2.Why did the woman refuse the authors 20 dollars?A.The money didnt help much.B.She didnt like the author.C.Accepting money was guilty.D.She felt her dignity was hurt.答案D解析推理判断题。根据文章第三段第一、二句,尤其是“The expression on her face was one of shame”可知,当我施舍给流浪老人20美元的时候,她转过头去不理我,同时她的脸上有一种羞愧的表情。故可推知,她感到她的尊严受到了伤害。故选D项。3.What lesson does the author learn from the homeless woman?A.Complaints can sometimes make life worse.B.He should appreciate his present life more.C.More is to be done to make life meaningful.D.We should all apologize for ignoring the poor.答案B解析细节理解题。根据文章第四段中的“I feel the need to apologize for my foolish pride in not realizing how fortunate I really am”可知,通过关注和帮助流浪老人,作者意识到了自己很幸运能拥有现在的一切,所以应该更加珍惜。故选B项。4.Which of the following words best describes the author of the text?A.Optimistic.B.Sympathetic.C.Determined.D.Easy-going.答案B解析推理判断题。根据文章内容可知,作者很同情并尽力去帮助流浪老人,故B项“同情的”符合题意。optimistic“乐观的”;determined“坚决的”;easy-going“随和的”。.完形填空Dr.Michael Schmoker is an educational

assignment even though you are bored out of your mind may soon be coming to an end.Thats because if Dr.Harry Witchel has his way,computers of the future will be able to detect boredom and even react to it in real time.But before you get concerned,the machine is not reading your mind.It is just keeping track of the constant involuntary movements that people exhibit when in front of a computer or even a television.These are not the bigger instrumental actions like moving a mouse or using the remote,but subtle barely noticeable movements like scratching or stretching.Witchel says the level of movement is directly relative to how absorbed the person is in what he/she is reading or watching the higher the interest level,the lesser the movement!To test the theory Witchel and his team invited 27 people and exposed them to a variety of digital content for three minutes at a time.The activities ranged from playing online games to reading documents like the EU banking regulations that most people would find boring.A video motion tracker monitored their movements as they powered through each assignment.Just as the researchers had suspected,the involuntary actions decreased surprisingly,by as much as 42%,when the subjects were totally absorbed in what they were reading or seeing.Fortunately,the scientists are not planning to use the findings that were published in the online journal to create machines that report students who
