Unit 4 Astronomy- the science of the stars课时作业language points.阅读理解A2019长沙市南昌市第一次联考We all have our own tricks to cheer up when were feeling down; these little tricks can make you feel a little bit happier every day. While there are certainly happy memories tied up in the wedding ring you and your spouse (配偶) purchased together years ago or your teddy bear from childhood, new research finds that we typically feel calmer and experience a greater sense of wellbeing when we focus on a place that reminds us of happier times rather than a thing, even if it holds great value.The report, called Places That Make Us, was conducted by National Trusts and Surrey Universitys researchers. Experts performed functional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) (磁共振成像) scans on 20 volunteers and conducted an online survey of 2,000 people to better understand this deep draw toward special places.“Working with leading researchers and academics, and using cuttingedge MRI brain technology, we examined how places affect people, how they become special, and why we feel a pull towards them,”explained Nino Strachey, head of research for the National Trust.The 20 volunteers were shown images of landscapes, houses, and other locations, as well as personally meaningful objects. Measuring their brain activity, the researchers found that it was the places, as opposed to the objects, that caused the brain to get the most excited.Volunteers were also interviewed at great length two times, once at home and the other time at their special place. The research made discoveries that had never known beforethe favorite places awoke feelings of belonging, physical and emotional safety, and an intense internal pull to the place.Dr. Andy Myers weighed_in_on the research, saying, “For the first time we have been able to prove the physical and emotional benefits of places, far beyond any research that has been done before.”【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了回忆某个与美好时光相关的地方时,我们会感到平静,幸福感也更加强烈。【长难句分析】Measuring their brain activity,the researchers found that it was the places,as opposed to the objects,that caused the brain to get the most excited.分析:这是一个复合句。the researchers found是主句,it was the places, as opposed to the objects,that caused the brain to get the most excited是宾语从句。Measuring their brain activity是非谓语动词作状语,it was. that.是强调句式。译文:通过检测他们的大脑活动,研究人员发现能使大脑最为兴奋的是这些地方,而不是物品。1How was the research conducted?ABy performing MRI on 2,000 volunteers.BBy measuring the participants brain by MRI.CBy doing rough interviews with the participants.DBy showing meaningful objects to the participants.答案与解析:B考查细节理解。根据第二段中的“Experts performed. on 20 volunteers”和第三段中的“using cuttingedge MRI brain technology”可知,研究者使用磁共振成像检查技术对参与者的大脑进行检测,故选B项。2How would the author feel about the findings of the study?AIt is pioneering. BIt is groundless.CIt is imperfect. DIt is uncommon.答案与解析:A考查推理判断。根据第五段中的“The research made discoveries that had never known before”可知,该研究的发现是前所未有的,故pioneering“开创性的,先驱的”符合题意。3What does the underlined phrase “weighed in on” mean?AThink highly of. BLook down on.CPay attention to. DMake fun of.答案与解析:A考查词义猜测。根据最后一段Dr. Andy Myers的话“For the first time we have been able to prove the physical and emotional benefits of places, far beyond any research that has been done before”可推知,Dr. Andy Myers认为这个研究开辟了先河,比之前的任何研究都好,所以对它“高度评价”。4What does the text mainly talk about?AEveryone has his way to be happy.BValuable places can make people happy.CTeddy bears are best memories for children.DMeaningful objects lead to greater wellbeing.答案与解析:B考查主旨大意。根据第一段中的“new research finds that we typically feel calmer and experience a greater sense of wellbeing when we focus on a place that reminds us of happier times rather than a thing”及下文的内容可知,本文主要讲的是与某件物品相比,当我们集中精神回忆某个与美好时光相关的地方时,我们尤其会感到平静,幸福感也更加强烈。所以选B项。B2019贵阳适应性考试When the weathers hot, do you enjoy a glass of Brads Drink while watching your TV made by Tokyo Telecommunications Engineering, and surfing the web using a search engine called BackRub? No? Neither do I. Thats because all these companies have changed their names.Brads Drink is now Pepsi. The mouthful that was Tokyo Telecommunications Engineering has become, simply, Sony. And BackRub is now known as Google. Though I must admit, the idea of a back massage does sound good right now!Joking aside, choosing the right name for your startup is a serious matter. Think of the case of a small Canadian company called Research In Motion, who in 1998 had just developed a hightech mobile phone that could send emails.They were torn between names like MegaMail and ProMail. Then they sought the help of consulting firm Lexicon, who specialize in brand names. They had other ideas. They brainstormed words connected to enjoyment and freshness. Someone said “strawberry”. Then someone else suggested “blackberry”Lexicons boss added two capital letters, and there you have it: BlackBerry was born. Since then it has sold over 33 million handsets to customers around the world. Would it have sold as well if it was called MegaMail? Who knows?Recently, BlackBerry sales have been overtaken by Android phones and Apples iPhone. Lexicons founder David Placek is a big fan of simple brand names like those Apple chooses: the iPhone. They took a household word and by putting one letter in front of it, it ends up being game changing.So, for all you entrepreneurs (企业家) out there, make sure you allow time to develop a catchy and memorable name. Think about what makes your company different. Whats your USP (独特卖点)? Maybe you can reflect that in your name.What about you? What would you call a company if you had one?【解题导语】本文主要讨论了给公司或产品起名字的艺术。【长难句分析】Think of the case of a small Canadian company called Research In Motion,who in 1998 had just developed a hightech mobile phone that could send emails.分析:本句是一个复合句。who引导定语从句,在从句中作主语;that引导定语从句,修饰先行词a hightech mobile phone,在从句中作主语。译文:想想一个在1998年刚刚开发了一款可以发送电子邮件的高科技移动手机名为Research In Motion的小公司的案例吧。5Which of the following is the original name of BlackBerry?ABrads Drink.BTokyo Telecommunications Engineering.CBackRub.DMegaMail and ProMail.答案与解析:D考查细节理解。根据第四段第一句“They were torn between names like MegaMail and ProMail”可知,黑莓的原名是MegaMail和ProMail,故选D。6What is Lexicon?AA consulting company.BA handset company.CA drink company.DA telecommunication company.答案与解析:A考查细节理解。根据第四段第二句“Then they sought the help of consulting firm Lexicon, who specialize in brand names”可知,Lexicon是一个专门给品牌起名字的咨询公司,故选A。7What is Lexicon good at?AGiving proper names to persons.BGiving proper names to a brand.CMaking Android phones.DMaking its company different.答案与解析:B考查推理判断。根据第四段第二句“Then they sought the help of consulting firm Lexicon, who specialize in brand names”可知,Lexicon是一个专门给品牌起名字的咨询公司,故选B。8What would be the best title for this passage?AThe Art of Designing BApples iPhoneCThe Art of Naming DResearch in Motion答案与解析:C考查标题判断。根据第一段最后一句“Thats because all these companies have changed their names”,并结合全文的内容可推知,本文主要讲的是给公司或产品起名字的重要性,即“起名字的艺术”,故选C。.完形填空2019昆明质量检测A few years ago I chose a “word of the year” to practise.
