限时规范练29(必修5　Unit 15A)‎ 核心素养关键词:培养学生人与社会、热爱体育锻炼的思维意识 ‎　限时规范练第58页　 ‎ 一、阅读理解 A American runner Meb Keflezighi thought that he had retired.But he had one more task.At the age of 42,he ran the 2018 Boston Marathon to raise money for the Martin Richard Foundation (MRF).The organization,created by Martin’s parents,honors the memory of the eight-year-old boy who was killed in the terrorist attack at the 2013 Boston Marathon.‎ Born in Eritrea,a country in the Horn of Africa,Keflezighi has had to deal with many difficulties from the time he was growing up.“No running water,no electricity,” he said.“You had to go two or three miles to get wood so that you could have fire to cook.”‎ For Keflezighi,running has always been a way of life.“It’s what I love to do,and it’s who I am,” he said.Keflezighi won the 2014 Boston Marathon and the 2009 New York City Marathon,and got a silver medal at the 2004 Summer Games in Athens,Greece.‎ Keflezighi retired from competition after the 2016 New York City Marathon.But he decided to run one last race.“I’m happy with my achievements,” he said.“Now,I’ll help others reach their goals.”‎ On the morning of April 16,Keflezighi set out from the starting line with more than 27,000 other marathoners.They raced through Boston’s hilly streets,heavy winds and cold rain.Those were “the most difficult conditions I’ve ever run in,” Keflezighi said after the race.‎ Keflezighi finished in 3 hours and 13 seconds,nearly an hour slower than his winning time at the 2014 Boston Marathon.But this year,Keflezighi was running not for the prize,but for a cause.“Marathon Meb”,as he is called,is still spurring on others.He said.“We all have difficult situations,but as long as we can overcome those,there’s the finish line waiting for us.” ‎ ‎【篇章导读】本文是记叙文。马拉松名将Meb Keflezighi在宣布退役之后又一次参加马拉松比赛,但这次他的参赛目的不是夺取冠军,而是为一个组织筹集资金。‎ ‎1.Why did Keflezighi run another race after he had decided to retire?‎ A.To raise money for an organization.‎ B.To express thankfulness to Martin’s parents.‎ C.To try running in the most difficult conditions.‎ D.To encourage people to face difficulties bravely.‎ 答案A 解析细节理解题。由第一段中的“American runner Meb Keflezighi...ran the 2018 Boston Marathon to raise money for the Martin Richard Foundation (MRF).”可知,他再次参加比赛是为一个组织筹集资金。‎ ‎2.How was Meb Keflezighi’s life like as a child?‎ A.Hard.‎ B.Lonely.‎ C.Exciting.‎ D.Peaceful.‎ 答案A 解析推理判断题。由第二段中的“Keflezighi has had to deal with many difficulties from the time he was growing up...go two or three miles to get wood so that you could have fire to cook.”可推断,Keflezighi幼年时的生活非常艰苦。‎ ‎3.What does the underlined phrase “spurring on” in the last paragraph mean?‎ A.Helping.‎ B.Training.‎ C.Questioning.‎ D.Encouraging.‎ 答案D 解析词义猜测题。画线单词的意思可以通过Keflezighi接下来所说的话体现出来。他告诉人们:我们都会身处困境,但只要我们能够克服困难,就能到达终点。他的话是在鼓励人们要勇敢面对并克服困难。‎ B You may not know the name Charles O’Rear,but if you’ve used a computer in the past ten years,you’re familiar with his photo.‎ O’Rear is the man behind the picture of a green hill and bright blue sky that served as the background for Microsoft’s Windows XP operating system.‎ In the 1990s,because of the spread of a pest,endless rows of grapevines in Napa Valley disappeared.Instead,the ground was covered with thickly-growing grass.‎ It was this picture of Sonoma County that passed by Charles O’Rear’s car window as he drove down Highway 121 in 1998.Although he was a photographer,O’Rear wasn’t doing his job that Friday afternoon.Instead,he was headed to visit his then-girlfriend (now-wife) near San Francisco.‎ But he still had one eye on the green hills.And then,he saw it.“Wow!” he thought.“The grass is perfect! It’s green! The sun is out;there are some clouds.”‎ So he stopped his car,pulled out his camera,and took a few photos.Those perfect greens and pure blues were totally unedited when O’Rear posted them on Corbis,a site created by Bill Gates.A few years later,O’Rear got a call from Microsoft asking to use his photo of Sonoma County as the background for its newest operating system.‎ The company never told O’Rear exactly why they chose his photograph.“Were they looking for a picture that was peaceful?” he wondered.But artists Goldin and Senneby,who spent months researching the photograph,said that Microsoft “wanted a picture with ‘more grounding’ than the pictures of skies they had used in Windows 95.”‎ O’Rear agreed to sell Microsoft all the rights to his photograph.But Microsoft had valued the photo so highly that none of the shipping companies could cover the insurance.In the end,O’Rear boarded a plane to deliver the photo himself.‎ Microsoft named it “Bliss”,and,since Windows XP met the public in 2001,it’s been seen by at least a billion people.‎ ‎【篇章导读】本文是说明文。文章介绍了微软公司Windows XP操作系统所使用的经典桌面背景图片背后的故事。‎ ‎4.O’Rear took “Bliss” 　　　. ‎ A.on a business trip to San Francisco B.on a trip to visit his then-girlfriend C.when he was on holiday with his wife D.when he was looking for beautiful hills 答案B 解析细节理解题。由第四段中的“he was headed to visit his then-girlfriend (now-wife) near San Francisco.”以及第六段中的“So he stopped his car,pulled out his camera,and took a few photos.”可知,他在去找当时的女友的途中,被窗外的美景吸引,于是停车拍下了一些照片,“Bliss”就是其中之一。‎ ‎5.According to Goldin and Senneby,why did Microsoft choose O’Rear’s photo?‎ A.The picture was peaceful.‎ B.The picture was of high value.‎ C.There was more grounding in this picture.‎ D.The green grass fit perfectly with the blue sky.‎ 答案C 解析细节理解题。由倒数第三段中的“But artists Goldin and Senneby...‘more grounding’ than the pictures of skies they had used in Windows 95.”可知,Goldin和Senneby认为微软公司想要寻找一张地面部分相比先前使用的天空图多的图片,因此选择了O’Rear的照片。‎ ‎6.How was the photo sent to Microsoft?‎ A.O’Rear carried it all the way there.‎ B.It was sent by an insurance company.‎ C.It was delivered by a shipping company.‎ D.Microsoft sent a plane to get it from O’Rear’s home.‎ 答案A 解析细节理解题。由倒数第二段中的“O’Rear boarded a plane to deliver the photo himself”可知,O’Rear乘坐飞机亲自将照片送到了微软公司。‎ ‎7.What can we learn about “Bliss” from the text?‎ A.It has been used for about 30 years.‎ B.It was edited before being sent to Microsoft.‎ C.The green ground in it used to be covered with grapevines.‎ D.More and more people choose it as their desktop backgrounds.‎ 答案C 解析细节理解题。由第三段可知,20世纪90年代时,Napa山谷曾经遍布葡萄藤,但因为遭受虫灾,葡萄藤消失,取而代之的是茂密的草场。‎ 二、七选五 From the time my kids were little I was determined to teach them the value of a dollar.　1　If they didn’t do their chores,they didn’t get their allowance (零花钱).And if they didn’t have money,they couldn’t buy anything.It’s kind of like real life. ‎ There was only one problem — me.　2　And then,when they occasionally would want to buy something that they couldn’t quite afford,I would sometimes let them borrow from the next week’s allowance.But then I’d forget how much they’d borrowed and we’d end up arguing about just how much I owed them.　3　  ‎ Obviously I’m not alone — both in wanting to teach my kids financial responsibility and in needing help.　4　Gregg Murset,a financial planner who has six kids of his own,created MyjobChart — a website that helps you keep track of the jobs your kids are doing and determine how much they’re owed. ‎ ‎　5　 My 22-year-old daughter recently explained how her emergency fund,built up by saving financial gifts and working during school,allowed her to live independently while continuing her education. ‎ So perhaps the thing to remember is that kids learn about handling money from their parents.Save,spend responsibly and try to explain why and they might just end up getting the message.‎ A.In short,I was an unsuccessful banker.‎ B.It is helpful in teaching my kids about money.‎ C.I’d forget to check whether they’d completed their chores.‎ D.So I set up the reward system and record their required chores.‎ E.The kids can sign in and record when they’ve completed their work.‎ F.So I gave them chores and an allowance when they were relatively young.‎ G.Now some parents working on technologies have come up with ways to solve this problem.‎ 答案与解析 ‎【篇章导读】本文是记叙文。作者从孩子们小时候就开始帮他们树立正确的金钱观念和习惯,但起初因没有严密的记录系统而受阻,后来得益于MyjobChart这个网站,孩子们逐渐建立起自己独立、良好的金钱观。‎ ‎1.F　F项中的chores和allowance与设空处下文中的“If they didn’t do their chores,they didn’t get their allowance”相呼应。‎ ‎2.C　根据设空处上文中的problem和下文中的forget可知,作者忘记检查孩子们是否完成了家务,C项符合语境。‎ ‎3.A　设空处处于段落末尾,通常为总结性的陈述。A项“In short,I was an unsuccessful banker”是对自己的总结,符合此处的结构和语义。‎ ‎4.G　根据设空处上文中的“I’m not alone”以及下文中的“Gregg Murset,a financial planner who has six kids of his own,created MyjobChart”可知,作者的困难也是大多数家长遇到的问题,为了解决该问题,一位金融策划人士为自己的六个孩子开发了一个记录家务详情的网站。故G项符合此处语境。‎ ‎5.B　根据设空处下文中“allowed her to live independently while continuing her education”可知,这个网站对孩子们很有益处,故B项符合此处语境。‎ 三、语法填空 Climate scientists from the University of Sydney in Australia say tourism causes over 8% of greenhouse gases.Their study

(vary) areas of tourism.Up to now,it 2.
