2016届高考英语一轮复习课时规范训练：Module2《No Drugs》外研版必修2

　　Module2 No Drugs

　　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

　　Record－breaking storm

　　If you lived by the sea，you'd know that typhoons are frequent(频繁的)visitors during summer.They bring strong winds，heavy rain and flooding(洪水)．But most of the time，when people stay indoors，they're just all right.

　　This is what the people in the Philippines used to believe－until they met the “super typhoon”，Haiyan.

　　The typhoon hit the country on Nov 8，at around 5 am，when most people were still asleep.But being at home didn't keep them safe，since few buildings remained standing once they were hit by wind as violent as 376 kilometers per hour，according to NBC News.

　　“This is at the top end of any tropical system that we've seen on our planet，” said Bryan Norcross，a weather scientist working for NBC.And so far，Haiyan has caused more than 3,600 deaths and left millions of people homeless.

　　But where did Haiyan get its destructive power?

　　According to Brian McNoldy，a tropical weather expert at the University of Miami，US，Haiyan was so strong because “it had everything working for it”．

　　“All typhoons feed off the warm ocean waters，” Colin Price，a weather researcher at Tel Aviv University in Israel，told National Geographic.Tropical storms are like giant engines(发动机)，powered by the heat transferred(传导)from the ocean waters to the air above.However，because of climate change，the oceans have been warming up in recent decades.“Warmer oceans will...result in more intense(强烈的)storms，” Price said.

　　Also，Haiyan started near the equator(赤道)，where it was able to pick up more heat before heading to the Philippines.Moreover，the route(路线)it traveled was mostly along open ocean，which means no land prevented it from gathering steam(水蒸气)．

　　In addition，there happened to be very little “wind shear(风切变)” in the area this time.Wind shear is a sudden change in wind speed or direction，which can tear apart developing storms.This is like when you stir(搅动)a glass of water with a chopstick：a swirl(漩涡)will form，but if you move the chopstick in the opposite direction，the swirl will quickly disappear.

　　“When all those things align in a certain way，you're going to get something like Haiyan，” Jim Kossin，a scientist with the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration，told National Geographic.

　　.

　　A．disappear

　　B

　　Increased use of the Internet and mobile phones is undermining pupils' ability for independent study and promoting poor grammar，it was claimed.

　　Cranfield School of Management found almost six in ten schoolchildren were copying information directly from websites for homework tasks without properly reading it.

　　More than a quarter thought it was an acceptable practice，even though they know it was considered plagiarism(剽窃)．

　　The study，based on a sample of around 260 pupils aged from 11 to 18 at a secondary school in the Midlands，raised concerns that modern technology was having a destructive effect on young people.

　　Andrew Kakabadse，professor of international management development at Cranfield，said，“Our research shows that technology obsession(痴迷) prevents spelling skills，encourages plagiarism，and disturbs classroom learning.”

　　“Despite school policies restricting mobile phone usage，students use the phone frequently，with the majority making calls from the toilets.The mobile phone continues to be a main channel of social communication during the school day.”

　　The report revealed that so－called “text－speak” was increasingly finding it was into pupils' school work.

　　Three in ten students admit to using text message shortcuts，such as “r u ok” in essays and classroom tasks.

　　It followed a study earlier this year that found almost half of the teachers failed to understand some pupils' writing because it was so full of confusing language.Phrases such as “innit” and “Gr8” were regularly found in school work.

　　The Cranfield study found that mobile use was so common that many pupils chose to ignore school rules on phones.

　　More than a third said they would use their mobile in class，while nearly three quarters said they would not even make an excuse to leave class to answer a phone call.

　　5．The underlined word “undermining” in the first paragraph can best be replaced by“

　　”．

　　A．determiningB．keeping

　　C．weakening

　　D．increasing

　　解析：选C。词义猜测题。根据第二、三两段可知，靠照搬网上资料完成家庭作业，实际上是一种抄袭，会影响学生的独立学习能力。undermining是“逐渐损害，削弱”的意思，故此处可以用weakening来代替。

　　6．It can be inferred from what Kakabadse said that

　　.

　　A．he is in favour of students' mobile phone usage at school

　　B．he believes schools are responsible for technology obsession

　　C．the research finds a new way to improve school management

　　D．it is hard to limit students' mobile phone usage at school

　　解析：选D。推理判断题。根据第六段第一句中的with the majority making calls from the toilets和第二句The mobile phone...the school day.可推断，限制学生在学校使用手机是很困难的。

　　7．What can we learn from the passage?

　　A．Most students' writing skills are becoming worse.

　　B．Text message language may affect pupils' language skills.

　　C．Students like to invent new words in their writing.

　　D．30% pupils often send text messages when studying.

　　解析：选B。细节理解题。根据第七至九段可知，短信语言可能会给学生的语言技能带来不利影响。

　　8．What's the attitude of the author to the problem?

　　A．Optimistic.B．Approving.

　　C．Anxious.

　　D．Tolerant.

　　解析：选C。观点态度题。从文章的字里行间可以看出作者对学生使用诸如手机之类的高科技产品持忧虑态度。故答案为C。

　　Ⅱ.语法填空

　　阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容(不多于1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。

　　After graduation from college，I started to be a seller.Soon I discovered that the worried expression I

　　1

　　2
