2016届高考英语一轮复习课时规范训练：Module4《Carnival》外研版必修5

　　Module4 Carnival

　　Ⅰ.阅读理解

　　阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中，选出最佳选项。

　　A

　　It's 10: 30 p．m.，and 11－year－old Brandon Blanco is sound asleep at home.Suddenly，a loud noise wakes him up.Naturally，Brandon reaches for his cell phone.He blinks twice，and the message on the screen becomes clear：“R U awake？”

　　But the late－night text does not annoy Brandon.He gets frequent messages and calls，even after bedtime.And he can't imagine life without them.“If I didn't have a cell phone，I wouldn't be able to talk to my friends or family as often，”says Brandon.

　　Brandon's use of technology doesn't stop there.He also has a computer，a TV and three video－game consoles (控制台) in his room.With so many choices，it is no surprise that when he is not at school，he spends nearly every waking minute using one or more of these devices.Brandon is hardly alone.According to a recent study by the Kaiser Family Foundation，kids aged 8 to 18 are spending more time than ever before using electronic devices.How much time？More than seven and a half hours a day on average，the study found.That's about an hour more than just five years ago.

　　The jump is the result of a huge explosion in mobile devices，says Victoria Rideout，the lead author of the study.Today，nearly seven out of ten kids have cell phones.Just five years ago，it was four out of ten.

　　“These devices have opened up many more opportunities for young people to use media，whether it's on the bus，on the way to school or waiting in line at the pizza parlor，”says Rideout.

　　Often，kids multitask，or use more than one device at a time.“If you've got a chance to do something on your computer and take a phone call and have the TV on in the background，why not？”Media expert Cheryl Olson says.

　　Most experts agree technology has much to offer kids.But some worry the kids could be missing out on other activities like playing outside or hanging out with friends.“It's a matter of balance，”says Olson.“You've got to work on it.”

　　Multitasking while doing homework is another concern.Some kids listen to music，watch TV or use the phone while doing their homework.“It's important to make sure that you can stop and concentrate on one thing deeply，”says Rideout.

　　With new and exciting devices hitting stores every year，keeping technology use in_check is more important than ever.“Kids should try，”adds Rideout.“But parents might have to step in sometimes.”

　　1．The text is mainly about kids'________.

　　A．cell phone use　B．various hobbies

　　C．favorite video games

　　D．using electronic devices

　　解析选D。主旨大意题。文章通过Brandon Blanco的例子引入对“青少年使用电子设备”情况的研究，介绍了研究的结果、有关专家对青少年使用电子设备过多这一情况的分析。由此判断全文主旨是青少年使用电子设备。

　　2．It can be learnt from the text that________.

　　A．Brandon feels annoyed about his late－night message

　　B．Olson is against teenagers'using mobile phones

　　C．many teenagers lack friends in their middle school

　　D．kids have too many electronic devices to choose from

　　解析选D。细节理解题。根据第三段前两句“Brandon's use of technology doesn't stop there.He also has a computer，a TV and three video－game consoles(控制台)in his room.”可知，现在青少年可选择使用的电子设备太多了。

　　3．The underlined phrase “in check” in the last paragraph can be replaced by “________”．

　　A．in order

　　B．in store

　　C．in sight

　　D．in control

　　解析选D。词义猜测题。根据文章最后“But parents might have to step in sometimes.”以及全文提到的对青少年使用电子设备的担心可判断作者认为应该对青少年使用电子设备的情况加以控制，故选D项。

　　4．According to the text，Victoria Rideout would probably agree that kids should________.

　　A．do homework while watching TV

　　B．do homework in a place without disturbance

　　C．spend more time on homework

　　D．have less homework

　　解析选B。推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中Victoria Rideout所说的话“It's important to make sure that you can stop and concentrate on one thing deeply...”可判断选B项。

　　B

　　“What’s the right weight for my child？” is one of the most common questions parents have.It seems like a simple one，but it’s not always easy to answer.People have different body types，so no single number is the right weight for everyone.

　　If you think you’ve gained too much weight or are too skinny，you can talk to a doctor.Your doctor will tell you whether you’ re growing normally.

　　If it is concerned about your height，weight，or BMI (体重指数)，your doctor may ask questions about your health，physical activity，and eating habits.Your doctor may also ask about your family background to find out if you’ ve received something from your parents that might make you taller，shorter，or a late bloomer (someone who develops later than other people of the same age)．The doctor can then put all the information together to decide whether you might have a weight or growth problem.

　　If your weight isn’t in a healthy range，you will probably get specific diet and exercise recommendations based on your individual needs.Following a doctor’s or dietitian’s plan designed especially for you will work much better than following fad (时尚) diets.For teens，fad diets or starvation plans can actually slow down growth，and the weight loss usually doesn’t last.

　　What if you’re worried about being too skinny? Most teens who weigh less than other teens of their age are just fine.They may be going through puberty on a different schedule than kids of the same age，and their bodies may be growing and changing at a different rate.Most underweight teens catch up in weight as they finish puberty during their later teen years so there’s rarely a need to try to gain weight.

　　In a few cases，teenagers can be underweight because of a health problem that needs treatment.If you feel tired or ill a lot，or if you have symptoms like a cough，stomachache，or other problems that have lasted for more than a week or two，be sure to let your parents or your doctor know.

　　5．From the first paragraph，we know that________.

　　A．there is no standard weight for everyone

　　B．there must be the same weight for everyone

　　C．there is one simple question among parents

　　D．there used to be difference between children’s weight

　　解析选A。细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句可知A项正确。

　　6．If Tom is a late bloomer，________.

　　A．he may not exercise enough

　　B．he may eat less food than others of his age

　　C．his classmates may be taller or stronger than him

　　D．few of his classmates will make friends with him

　　解析选C。细节理解题。由第三段a late bloomer后括号中的内容可知，a late bloomer是指比同龄人发育晚的人，故选C项。

　　7．What does the author want to tell us in the fourth paragraph?

　　A．How to decide if a child has a weight problem.

　　B．What a child should do if he has a weight problem.

　　C．Weight loss from dieting won’t last long.

　　D．A child with a weight problem should exercise more.

　　解析选B。推理判断题。本段一开始就说，如果体重不在正常范围以内，你就会得到适合个人的饮食或锻炼方面的建议，接着又说执行医生或营养学家为你制定的计划会比追随时尚饮食效果好得多，且具体说明了原因(时尚饮食或饥饿计划会延缓发育，减少的体重通常不会持久)，故B项正确。

　　8．What does the underlined word “puberty” in Paragraph 5 refer to?

　　A．A period of physical development.

　　B．A few school subjects.

　　C．A period of a school year.

　　D．Some school examinations.

　　解析选A。词义猜测题。根据语境，前面讲大多数十多岁的孩子体重比别人轻没什么，后面又说生长发育速度与他人有所不同，体重后来可以赶上他人等。这样综合推断puberty应该指身体发育的一段时间。

　　9．From the passage we can learn that ________.

　　A．teenagers’eating too much will lead to overweight

　　B．teenagers who are skinny usually eat too little

　　C．doctors sometimes make mistakes

　　D．sometimes it’s difficult to say if a teenager has a weight problem

　　解析选D。推理判断题。文章第三段提到超重或体重过轻可能是遗传、饮食习惯或发育等方面的原因，因此要作出判断并非容易，即选D项。

　　Ⅱ.语法填空
