Unit 3 Computers 李仕才 ‎***阅读理解。‎ When it's five o'clock,people leave their office.The length of the workday,for many workers,is defined by time.They leave when the clock tells them they're done.‎ These days,the time is everywhere:not just on clocks or watches,but on cellphones and computers.That may be a bad thing,particularly at work.New research shows that clockbased work schedules hinder morale(士气)and creativity.‎ Clocktimers organize their day by blocks of minutes and hours.For example:a meeting from ‎9 a.m.to ‎10 a.m.,research from ‎10 a.m.to noon,etc.On the other hand,tasktimers have a list of things they want to accomplish.They work down the list;each task starts when the previous task is completed.It is said that all of us employ a mix of both these types of planning.‎ What,then,are the effects of thinking about time in these different ways?Does one make us more productive?Better at the tasks at hand?Happier? In experiments conducted by Tamar Avnet and AnneLaure Sellier,they had participants organize different activities—from project planning,holiday shopping,to yoga—by time or todo list to measure how they performed under “clock time” vs.“task time”.They found clocktimers to be more efficient but less happy because they felt little control over their lives.Tasktimers are happier and more creative,but less productive.They tend to enjoy the moment when something good is happening,and seize opportunities that come up.‎ The researchers argue that taskbased organizing tends to be undervalued and undersupported in business culture.Smart companies,they believe,will try to bake more taskbased planning into their strategies.‎ This might be a small change to the way we view work and the office,but the researchers argue that it challenges a widespread characteristic of the economy:work organized by clock time.While most people will still probably need,and be,to some extent,clocktimers,taskbased timing should be used when they are performing a job that requires more creativity.It'll make those tasks easier,and the taskdoers will be happier.‎ ‎1.What is the way people often do their work according to the author?‎ A.They give priority to the most urgent task on hand.‎ 8‎ B.They set a time limit for each specific task.‎ C.They combine clockbased and taskbased planning.‎ D.They accomplish their tasks one by one.‎ ‎2.What did the researchers find in their experiments on clocktimers?‎ A.They tend to be more productive.‎ B.They seize opportunities as they come up.‎ C.They always get their work done in time.‎ D.They have more control over their lives.‎ ‎3.What is the researchers' opinion about today's business culture?‎ A.It does not support the strategies adopted by smart companies.‎ B.It attaches more importance to work efficiency than to workers' lives.‎ C.It aims to bring employees' potential and creativity into full play.‎ D.It does not lay enough emphasis on taskbased practice.‎ ‎4.From the passage,we can conclude that ________.‎ A.it is important to keep a balance between work and life B.taskbased timing is preferred for doing creative work C.performing creative jobs tends to make workers happier D.a scientific standard should be adopted in job evaluation ‎【解题导语】本文是一篇对时钟型和任务型两种工作方式的研究报告。‎ ‎【难句分析】While most people will still probably need,and be,to some extent,clocktimers,taskbased timing should be used when they are performing a job that requires more creativity.‎ 分析:本句中While引导让步状语从句,意思是“虽然”,相当于although;when they are performing a job是when引导的时间状语从句;that requires more creativity是一个定语从句,先行词是a job。‎ 译文:虽然大多数人仍然很可能在某种程度上需要或者成为时钟计时型的人,但是他们在做需要更多创造力的工作时还是应当使用任务型的时间安排。‎ ‎1.C 考查细节理解。根据第三段中的“It is said that all of us employ a mix of both these types of planning”可知,人们采用了这两种方式的复合型工作方式,因此选项C“他们把时钟型和任务型的计划结合起来”是正确的。选项A、B和D的信息在文中无处可寻,所以都是错误的。give priority to...意为“给……以优先考虑”;on hand意为“在手边”;set a time limit for...意为“给……设定时限”。‎ ‎2.A 考查细节理解。根据第四段中的“They found clocktimers to be more efficient but less happy because they felt little control over their lives.Tasktimers are 8‎ ‎ happier and more creative,but less productive”可知,采用时钟计时型工作方式的人效率更高,采用任务计时型工作方式的人更开心,但是效率较低。所以选A。‎ ‎3.D 考查推理判断。根据第五段首句“The researchers argue that taskbased organizing tends to be undervalued and undersupported in business culture”可知,研究人员认为任务型的工作方式在商业文化中往往被低估并且缺乏支持。故选项D“它(商业文化)没有充分强调任务型的实践”正确。‎ ‎4.B 考查推理判断。根据末段中的“taskbased timing should be used when they are performing a job that requires more creativity”可知,在做需要更多创造力的工作时还是应当使用任务型的工作方式。故选B项。根据第四段中的“Tasktimers are happier and more creative, but less productive”和末段的末句“It'll make those tasks easier, and the taskdoers will be happier”可知,文中讲述的是采用任务计时型工作方式的人更开心,且更有创造力,但并不意味着做有创造力的工作会让人们更开心,所以选项C是错误的;选项A和D的内容在文中没有提及,是主观臆断,因此也是错误的。‎ ‎***语法填空。‎ All of us have read thrilling stories. In many of __1__(they) the hero had only a __2__(limit) and specified time to live. Sometimes it was as long as a year; sometimes as short as twentyfour hours, __3__we were always interested in __4__(discover) just how the dying man chose to spend his last days or his last hours.‎ Such stories set up thinking, wondering __5__we should do under similar circumstances. What __6__(happy) should we find in reviewing the past, and what regrets? Sometimes, I have thought it would be an excellent rule to live each day __7__if we should die tomorrow. Such an attitude would stress __8__(sharp) the values of life.‎ I have often thought it would be a blessing if each human being __9__(be) stricken blind and deaf for a few days at some time during his early adult life. Darkness would make him __10__(much) appreciative of sight; silence would teach him the joys of sound.‎ ‎1.________  2.________  3.________  4.________  5.________  6.________  7.________  8.________  9.________  10.________ ‎ 篇章导读:本文是一篇议论文,主要描述了作者对生活的感悟,即努力过好每一天,珍惜眼下的生活。‎ ‎1.them 考查代词。介词of后接人称代词的宾格形式。they的宾格为them。‎ 8‎ ‎2.limited 考查词性转换。此处limited和specified是并列关系,一起修饰time,所以填limit的形容词形式limited。‎ ‎3.but 考查连词。句意:有时长达一年,有时短到24小时,但是我们总是对发现垂死的人选择如何度过最后的时光或最后的几个小时感兴趣。根据语境可知,此处应用but表示转折。‎ ‎4.discovering 考查非谓语动词。固定搭配be interested in后接名词或动名词作宾语。故填discovering。‎ ‎5.what 考查宾语从句的连接词。动词wonder后的宾语从句中缺少动词do的宾语,所以用连接词what引导。‎ ‎6.happiness 考查词性转换。感叹句中,what修饰名词,happy的名词形式为happiness。‎ ‎7.as 考查固定搭配。句意:有时我想,把每天都当作生命的最后一天来度过也不失为一个很好的生命法则。as if是固定搭配,意为“似乎,好像”,符合语境。‎ ‎8.sharply 考查词性转换。此处应用副词修饰动词stress。故填sharply,意为“大幅度地”。‎ ‎9.were 考查虚拟语气。句意:我常常想,如果每个人在他成年的早期有一段时间处于眼盲、耳聋的状态,那会是一种幸事。根据句意可知,本句为虚拟语气。根据主句中的谓语动词“would be”可知,if从句中的谓语动词应用一般过去时,be动词一律用were。‎ ‎10.more 考查形容词的比较级。appreciative是多音节形容词,本句表示“黑暗让他更加感激光明”,应用形容词的比较级形式,故填more。‎ ‎***完形填空。‎ 阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出可能填入空白处的最佳选项。‎ ‎(2018·太原市高三年级模拟试题)‎ I was a shy kid.Nothing seemed harder than talking to

Hope to hear from you and share good ideas.‎ 难项分析:‎ 第三处:去掉a 考查冠词。weather是不可数名词,不能和不定冠词搭配。故去掉a。‎ 第七处:protect前加to 考查非谓语动词。句意:所以我们应该尽我们所能去保护它。此处用动词不定式作目的状语。故在protect前加to。‎ 第八处:different→difference 考查固定搭配。make a difference为固定搭配,意为“有影响,起作用”。‎ ‎***‎ ‎ ‎ 8‎
