Module 1Life in the Future(限时：35分钟)(对应学生用书第333页).阅读理解A(2018成都第二次诊断)What are your retirement plans? Keep working? Get more exercise? Or learn something new? You may put them on holdTheres a chance that，sooner or later，you might have to move further than you were thinking，as far as Mars (火星)On Thursday，National Geographic will show the first ever Mars show home，giving earthlings an idea of what their life could look like on the Red Planet.Set in the notsodistant year of 2037，the iglooshaped structure could be the home of your future.It shows a house built using recycled spacecraft parts and Martian soil，called regolith，which has been microwaved into bricks.Some parts of the home are recognisablekitchen，bedroombut there are fundamental differences that are vital for human survival.As the Martian atmosphere is around one hundredth as thick as the Earths，people will need permanent shelter from the sun and society will move largely indoors.Most buildings will be connected by underground passages and the houses wont have windows.The homes will have simulated solar lighting，or natural light that has been bent several times.Walls will need to be 10 to 12 feet thick，to protect people from dangerous rays that can pass through six feet of steel，and a double airlocked entrance to keep the home under proper pressure.“We dont think of our houses as things that keep us alive，but on Mars your house will be a survival centre，”says Stephen Petranek，author of How Well Live on Mars.This is not just the stuff of scifi.“Ten to twenty years from now there will certainly be people on Mars，”Petranek says.“Weve had the technology for 30 years to land people on Mars，but we havent had the will，”Petranek says.“But two main factors have completely swung public attitudes.”The private companies participation has forced government agencies to up their game，and influential films such as Gravity and The Martian have caught societys eye.【语篇解读】本文主要对人类未来在火星上居住作了相关介绍。1What can we know about the show home from the text?AIt has no windows or doors due to security concern.BIts design presents the idea of environmental protection.CIt has thick walls keeping the home under proper pressure.DIts underground passages connect all the buildings together.B考查推理判断。根据第三段的第一句“It shows a house built using recycled spacecraft parts and Martian soil，called regolith，which has been microwaved into bricks.”可推知，火星样板房的设计采用了可回收的宇宙飞船上的一些部件，体现了环保意识，故选B。A项错在出于安全考虑，火星样板房没有窗户和门，而第四段的第二句“Most buildings will be connected by underground passages and the houses wont have windows.”可知，样板房没有窗户，但没有提到没有门；C项错在火星样板房的厚墙能让房子处于适当的压力中，而第五段中的“a double airlocked entrance to keep the home under proper pressure”解释说不是墙而是双层密闭入口起到了这样一个作用；D项错在火星样板房的地下通道和所有建筑连接，而第四段第二句中的“Most buildings will be connected by underground passages”解释的是大部分的建筑由地下通道连接，故排除。2What do the underlined words “put them on hold” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?APut them off. BGive them away.CCarry them through. DTake them seriously.A考查词义猜测。根据第一段的最后一句“Theres a chance that，sooner or later，you might have to move further than you were thinking，as far as Mars (火星)”可推知，之前的列举都可能被搁置下来，而去火星居住迟早会成为可能，故选A。3According to Petranek，what has sped up the process of sending people to Mars?AThe great influence of Mars show home.BThe development of related technology.CThe competition from private companies.DThe popularity of influential books on Mars.C考查细节理解。根据最后一段的“The private companies participation has forced government agencies to up their game”可知，Petranek认为一些私人企业的参与促进了送人类去火星居住这一设想的进程，故选C。4What is the best title for the text?ALiving on Mars: Possible or NotBSending People to Mars: Yes or NoCFirst Ever Show Home: How Is It MadeDFuture Home on Mars: What Will It Be LikeD考查标题判断。根据全文的整体内容可推知，本文主要对人类未来在火星上居住作了相关介绍，故选D。根据倒数第二段的“Weve had the technology for 30 years to land people on Mars，but we havent had the will”可知，人类已拥有登上火星的相关技术，是可以去火星的，故A、B错；C项错在首个火星样板房是如何做出来的，这只是文章中提到的一部分，并非文章主旨，有以偏概全之嫌，故排除。 【导学号：44040185】B(2017广州高三测试)Many people would love to leave their jobs behind and have a lifechanging adventure overseas.They imagine lying under palm trees as the sun goes down.However，life overseas is not always easy，and many are not prepared for the shock of living in an alien culture.The honeymoon periodAt first，for those who actually decide to move abroad，life is an exciting adventure.They enjoy exploring their new surroundings，and life seems like an extended holiday.They dont mind trying the local cuisine and discovering the local culture.They can even afford to practise their foreignlanguage skills without fear of making mistakes.Trouble in paradiseIn many cases，when people consider moving to another country，they often fail to realize how different life will be.As time goes by，they become frustrated when language and cultural misunderstandings become a daily headache.In this stage，the visitors begin to withdraw from life in the host country and avoid spending time with local people in favour of mixing with others from their own cultural background.The road to recoveryGradually，most visitors realize they must accept the differences and not fight against them.This change encourages them to improve their language skills and slowly they manage to do the things they could easily do at home，such as opening a bank account.This newfound confidence enables them to see a side of life which very few tourists get to witness.Adjusting to life abroad can often be a real problem.The secret to overcoming it is to stop trying to change your host country：you will not succeed.If not，you risk losing your dream and having to return to the old life you wanted to leave behind.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。许多人因为喜欢冒险和探索，所以移居国外生活，但文化的差异和语言的不同又使得他们很沮丧，因此作者建议移居国外的人最好能够学好当地语言以适应当地生活。5Why do people moving abroad feel excited at first?AThey find foreign living much easier.BThey have the
