核心素养测评三 Module 3 My First Ride on a Train ‎ Ⅰ. 阅读理解 A ‎(2020·安阳模拟)‎ I waited half an hour, set the board, and sat in the studio, reviewing my questions until the telephone lines flashed. ‎ ‎　　“Hello? ”‎ ‎　　“This is Connie Chung. I’m so sorry I’m late. ”‎ ‎　　Connie Chung was one of the only four women anchors (主播) to make it into the club of major evening network television news. For almost an hour we talked about the industry. When I asked if she ever had an instructor throughout her trials, she turned around and offered to instruct me. When I asked why she decided to do it, she simply replied, “Because you’re good. ”‎ ‎　　That afternoon I rushed home and told my mother what had happened. Without looking up, she just said “Good for you. ” Hearing this, I felt a sense of loss. Her consistent response always made me feel under-appreciated. ‎ ‎　　Until then I had been searching for something that I would never get—that sense of love and acceptance in a house full of negativity(消极). ‎ ‎　　I knew I needed to get rid of all the negativity in my life first, so I packed my bags and walked out of the house, thinking a risk would allow me to open myself to the world again and receive all the positive energy that I needed. ‎ ‎　　Then radio became my way of connecting with others. My ability to book high-level guests and celebrities(名人)was gradually recognized and eventually all the words of encouragement from past guests and colleagues helped me to rebuild my confidence levels. “I can do this, ” I kept telling myself, and pushed even harder to find my next aim. ‎ ‎　　People had faith in me, so I developed faith in myself. Their positive attitudes towards themselves and towards me helped me develop my own positive attitude, leading to productive interactions with celebrities and adding to my list of ‎ 13‎ instructors. ‎ ‎　　I may not have started life surrounded by positivity but I surely feel that I am surrounded by it now. It’s amazing how positivity builds on itself. ‎ ‎【文章大意】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了作者在主持节目过程中遇到的一些朋友和导师, 他们积极乐观的态度以及对作者的信任, 给作者带来了力量, 从而使作者也变得更加积极主动, 同时也取得了成功。‎ ‎1.

It touched down on the far side of the moon at 10: 26 a. m. Beijing Time, becoming the first spacecraft soft-landing on the moon’s unknown side never visible from Earth. ‎ ‎　　China’s Chang’e-4 probe has started the exploration on the far side of the moon thanks to the relay satellite that provides a communication link with ground control. The relay satellite, named Queqiao, meaning Magpie Bridge, after a Chinese legend (传说), was launched on May 21, 2018, and became the first communication satellite operating in the halo orbit, nearly 500, 000 km from the earth. It can also provide communication for probes from other countries. The relay satellite will also be used for scientific and technological experiments. The maximum distance between the satellite and the Chang’e-4 probe on the far side of the moon is 79, 000 km. The satellite processes data from the probe and sends it to Earth. ‎ ‎　　The satellite can stay in its orbit for a long time due to its relatively low fuel consumption, as the earth’s and moon’s gravity balances its orbital moving. While in orbit, it can “see” both the earth and the far side of the moon. ‎ ‎　　The concept of using a relay satellite in the halo orbit was first put forward by U. S. space experts in the 1960s, but was realized by Chinese space engineers. ‎ ‎　　Researchers hope to use the cameras on the satellite to record asteroids (小行星) hitting the far side of the moon. To control the cost of the Chang’e-4 probe, the relay satellite was designed to be relatively small, weighing about 400 kg. ‎ ‎　　Researchers had just 30 months to develop the satellite, putting them under high pressure. To promote public interest in space exploration, the China National Space Administration invited people to write down their wishes for lunar and space exploration, and the relay satellite carries the names of tens of thousands of participants and their messages. ‎ ‎【文章大意】这是一篇应用文。文章报道了北京时间2019年1月3日10时26分, 我国嫦娥四号探测器成功登陆月球背面,‎ 13‎ ‎ 并通过“鹊桥”中继卫星传回了世界第一张近距离拍摄的月背影像图。‎ ‎5.

What is called “interactive entertainment” makes more money than Hollywood cinema. Is there any way of making films more appealing to people who like to play computer games? ‎ ‎　　Making a film out of a best-selling computer game can guarantee a large audience. 　1　 Nowadays films are made with similar ones. They have attractive action scenes relying on fantasy effects as well. Gaming markets consist of science-fiction games, and film-makers have also set films in science-fiction worlds. 　2　 Any attempt to borrow more than the setting from a game is certain to fail.  ‎ ‎　　Why do gamers feel disappointed by films based on their favorite games? One of the reasons is technical. Now everything can be computer-produced. 　3　 However, filming a scene from 20 different cameras would cost a fortune, so it simply isn’t done in the film version—leaving the gamers feeling that the film didn’t look as real as the computer game.  ‎ ‎　　　4　 In a film the director doesn’t show you some things to keep you have the feeling of excitement or anxiety. For example, you wouldn’t be interested in watching the film if you knew the identity of the murderer. But this is not true for computer games. When you play a game, you have to do certain tasks to continue to the new level. 　5　 You are always in control as a player, while in the cinema you never control the action. You just sit and watch.  ‎ ‎　　There can be some interaction between films and computer games on different levels. For all the similarities between technologies and special effects, we shouldn’t forget that a story and a game are fundamentally different. ‎ A. Cameras matter in another sense, too. ‎ B. The success of a game usually lies in the use of special effects. ‎ C. You can’t influence what happens at all in the computer games. ‎ D. Computer games may show the action from a number of views easily. ‎ 13‎ E. The game has a good chance of being as successful as the film on which it is based. ‎ F. You must be able to have access to all the information in order to decide what to do next. ‎ G. However, the difficulty for film producers appears to be knowing where and when to stop. ‎ ‎【文章大意】本文属于议论文。介绍游戏产业可能会取代电影产业以及背后的原因, 同时还对电影和游戏进行了对比。‎ ‎1. 【解析】选B。根据后两句Nowadays films are made with similar ones. They have attractive action scenes relying on fantasy effects as well. 可知, 如今制作电影也使用了类似的特效, 最终呈现吸引人眼球的动作场景。B选项, 一部游戏的成功通常在于特效的使用, 根据后文的similar ones可知, 电影和游戏使用类似的特效来保证动作场景的美观, 切题, 故选B。‎ ‎2. 【解析】选G。根据后一句Any attempt to borrow more than the setting from a game is certain to fail. 可知, 任何企图借鉴游戏更多东西注定是要失败的。G选项, 但是, 电影制作人的困难在于要知道借鉴游戏到什么程度, 借鉴哪些方面, 与后文, 如果全盘借鉴注定失败, 意思一致, 切题, 故选G。‎ ‎3. 【解析】选D。根据后一句However, filming a scene from 20 different cameras would cost a fortune, so it simply isn’t done in the film version—leaving the gamers feeling that the film didn’t look as real as the computer game. 可知, 用20台摄像机拍摄一个场景会很花钱, 通常在拍摄电影时是无法做到的, 因此会让游戏玩家感觉电影没有游戏场景逼真。D选项, 游戏可以从不同的角度来展示一个场景, 这是电影很难做到的, 与后文的电影制作形成对比, 切题, 故选D。‎ ‎4. 【解析】选A。根据后一句In a film the director doesn’t show you some things to keep you have the feeling of excitement or anxiety. 可知, 在电影中, 导演为了让你保持兴奋或者着急, 不会让你看到所有的东西, 这就在于摄像机的使用。A选项, 摄像机从另一层意义来说也很重要, 切题, 故选A。‎ ‎5. 【解析】选F。根据后一句You are always in control as a player, while in the cinema you never control the action. 可知, 作为游戏玩家你一直处于控制的地位, 而在电影院, 你无法控制动作场景。F选项, 你必须充分利用所有的信息来决定下一步做什么, 这就让自己处于控制的地位, 切题, 故选F。‎ 13‎ Ⅲ. 短文改错 Dear Tom, ‎ ‎　　How time flies!

During the 14th century, he travelled about 75, 000 miles in search of knowledge and for the love of travel. To share the learning and research so highly valued by Islamic (伊斯兰教的) culture, the ruler of Morocco, Abu Inan Faris, wanted Ibn Battuta’s worldwide travels recorded and published when he returned home to Morocco after almost 30 years. Ibn Juzayy, a Moroccan Court Secretary, was to write down Ibn Battuta’s experiences. His travel journal, The Rihla, documents this extraordinary achievement. It gives us a first-hand account of life in the 14th-century Muslim world. The original book, handwritten in Arabic, can be viewed today at the National Library in Paris. ‎ ‎　　The early 14th century was a favorable age for a Muslim traveller. It was nearing the end of the Golden Age of Islam, one of the great explosions of scientific and cultural achievements in world history. Caravans and sea lanes created transportation and communication networks that spread across continents, including Europe, Africa and Asia. Towns and cities were regularly visited by merchants, traders, doctors, artists, craftsmen, scholars and pilgrims (朝圣者) carrying goods and ideas. All of these promoted the exchange of goods and ideas on a scale not seen previously in world history. As an educated man with professional legal skills, Ibn Battuta enjoyed kindness, companionship and offers of employment throughout the Islamic world. ‎ ‎　　Journey to Mecca describes the 5, 000-mile journey Ibn Battuta made in 1325 and ‎ 13‎ ‎1326 from his hometown Tangier, Morocco, to reach Mecca, in what is now the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, to make the pilgrimage. During this dangerous and awesome 18-month pilgrimage, he met many hindrances as he was attacked by robbers, troubled by thirst, and forced to go back to his route due to war along the Red Sea. Joining the legendary Damascus Caravan with thousands of pilgrims leaving for Mecca, he completed the final section of what would be his first of six journeys to Mecca. ‎ ‎　　The goal of the film, Journey to Mecca, was to tell the remarkable story of Ibn Battuta and to promote a better understanding of Islam in the West, said the producers. ‎ ‎【文章大意】本文是一篇记叙文。伊本·巴图塔一直在旅行并被认为是世界上最伟大的旅行者。他出版了自传游记The Rihla, 讲述了自己旅程中的所见所闻。电影麦加之旅就讲述了伊本·巴图塔为了心中的渴望千里迢迢前往麦加朝圣的故事。‎ ‎1.
