　　第一部分　必修三　Module 5

　　Ⅰ.阅读理解

　　A

　　Most people know that Marie Curie was the first woman to win the Nobel Prize, and the first person to win it twice. However, few people know that she was also the mother of a Nobel Prize winner.

　　Born in September, 1897, Irene Curie was the first of the Curies two daughters. Along with nine other children whose parents were also famous scholars, Irene studied in their own school, and her mother was one of the teachers. She finished her high school education at the College of Sévigné in Paris.

　　Irene entered the University of Paris in 1914 to prepare for a degree in mathematics and physics. When World War I began, Irene went to help her mother, who was using X­ray facilities (设备) to help save the lives of wounded soldiers. Irene continued the work by developing X­ray facilities in military hospitals in France and Belgium. Her services were recognised in the form of a Military Medal by the French government.

　　In 1918 ，Irene became her mother's assistant at the Curie Institute. In December 1924, Frederic Joliot joined the Institute, and Irene taught him the techniques required for his work. They soon fell in love and were married in 1926.Their daughter Helene was born in 1927 and their son Pierre five years later.

　　Like her mother, Irene combined family and career. Like her mother, Irene was awarded a Nobel Prize, along with her husband, in 1935. Unfortunately, also like her mother, she developed leukemia because of her work with radioactivity(辐射能) .Irene Joliot­Curie died from leukemia on March 17,1956.

　　语篇解读：本文为记叙文。诺贝尔奖得主Marie Curie众所周知，但她的女儿Irene Curie却鲜为人知，她同样是一位诺贝尔奖获得者。

　　1．Why was Irene Curie awarded a Military Medal?

　　A．Because she received a degree in mathematics.

　　B．Because she contributed to saving the wounded.

　　C．Because she won the Nobel Prize with Frederic.

　　D．Because she worked as a helper to her mother.

　　答案：B　事实细节题。根据第三段的第二句和第三句可知，Irene Curie帮助母亲用X光设备来救治伤员，在法国和比利时的军事医院中，她仍继续这项工作，并改进了X光设备。她因此被授予一枚“军事奖章”。

　　2．Where did Irene Curie meet her husband Frederic Joliot?

　　A．At the Curie Institute.

　　B．At the University of Paris.

　　C．At a military hospital.

　　D．At the College of Sévigné.

　　答案：A　事实细节题。由倒数第二段可知，1918年，Irene在Curie Institute成了她妈妈的一名助手，1924年，Frederic Joliot也进入了Curie Institute，两人从此结识。故两人认识的地点应该为Curie Institute。

　　3．When was the second child of Irene Curie and Frederic Joliot born?

　　A．In 1932. B．In 1927.

　　C．In 1897. D．In 1926.

　　答案：A　事实细节题。根据倒数第二段的最后一句可知，他们的女儿Helene出生于1927年，5年后儿子出生了，即第二个孩子在1932年出生。

　　4．In which of the following aspects was Irene Curie different from her mother?

　　A．Irene worked with radioactivity.

　　B．Irene combined family and career.

　　C．Irene won the Nobel Prize once.

　　D．Irene died from leukemia.

　　答案：C　推理判断题。由首段可知，Marie Curie获得了两次诺贝尔奖，但根据最后一段可知，Irene Curie只获得了一次诺贝尔奖，这是母女俩的不同之处。由最后一段可排除选项A、B和D。

　　B

　　A sunflower is a sunflower. A mobile phone is a mobile phone. But can you combine the two to do something for your local environment?

　　As early as next year it may well be possible. When you have finished with your mobile phone you will be able to bury it in the garden or a plant pot and wait for it to flower. A biodegradable (生物可降解的) mobile phone was, this month, introduced by scientists. It is hoped that the new type of phone will encourage consumers to recycle.

　　Scientists have come up with a new material over the last five years. It looks like any other plastic and can be hard or soft, and able to change shape. Overtime it can also break down into the soil without giving out any toxic (有毒的) chemicals. British researchers used the new material to develop a phone cover that contains a sunflower seed. When this new type of cover turns into waste, it forms nitrates (硝酸盐). These feed the seed and help the flower grow.

　　Engineers have designed a small transparent (透明的)window to hold the seed. They have made sure it only grows when the phone is thrown away.

　　“We've only put sunflower seeds into the covers so far. But we are working with plant experts to find out which flowers would perform best. Maybe we could put roses in next time，” said one scientist.

　　As phone technology is developing so quickly people are constantly (经常地) throwing their mobiles away. This means manufacturers are under pressure to find ways of recycling them.

　　Some 650 million mobile phones have been sold this year. Most of them will be thrown away within two years, adding plastic, heavy metal and chemical waste to the environment. A biodegradable cover can offer some relief for nature, according to the scientists.

　　“The seed is released and the flower grows in the pot so you don't have to concern yourself with the phone when you have finished using it，” said Kerry Kirwan. She leads the research team, which is based at the University of Warwick in Britain.

　　语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了科学家计划推出的一种可生物降解的手机。希望这种新型手机能鼓励消费者进行回收再利用。

　　5．After you have finished using the new type of mobile phone, ________.

　　A．the sunflower seed will come out and flower wherever you throw it

　　B．the phone cover will break down easily in the soil which you bury it in

　　C．it will be recycled by the manufactures

　　D．it can recharge itself in an environment­friendly way

　　答案：B　细节理解题。根据第三段第三句“Overtime it can also break down into the soil without giving out any toxic chemicals.”可知，应选B项。

　　6．Which of the following is wrong about the cover of the new type of phone?

　　A．It can provide useful fertilizer (肥料) for the sunflower seed after the mobile phone breaks down.

　　B．It looks like normal plastics but it can break down.

　　C．It can serve as the storage for the sunflower seed.

　　D．It makes sure the seed only grows after the phone is thrown away.

　　答案：D　细节理解题。根据第四段可知选项D是a small transparent window的功能，而不是the cover的功能。故选D项。

　　7．This type of research is done because ________.

　　A．the technology that produces mobile phones is changing rapidly

　　B．consumers tend to throw away their mobile phones within two years

　　C．nobody has ever thought of recycling mobile phones

　　D．producing mobile phones uses a lot of energy, so this has become a very big problem for the environment

　　答案：B　推理判断题。根据第七段可知，由于手机更新速度快，大多数手机在两年内将被扔掉，这就给环境带来了污染。为了缓解对自然界造成的污染，科学家们推出了一种可生物降解的手机。故选B项。

　　8．We can infer from the story ________.

　　A．the new type of mobile phone is already on the market

　　B．the new type of mobile phone will sell extremely well

　　C．recycling mobile phones is increasingly important to the scientists

　　D．other flowers may be used in the new type of cell phone

　　答案：D　推理判断题。根据第五段最后一句“Maybe we could put roses in next time...”可推断，未来也可在手机中放其他花的种子。故选D项。

　　Ⅱ.七选五
