新人教版选修6《Unit 2 Poems》2019年单元测试卷

第一部分：阅读理解（共两节）第一节（满分40分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑．

• 1．A funny thing happens on the way to the communications revolution：we stop talking to one another．
  I was walking in the park with a friend recently，and his cell phone rang，interrupting our conversation．There we were，walking and talking on a beautiful sunny day and I became invisible，absent from the conversation．
    The telephone used to connect you to the absent．Now it makes people sitting next to you feel absent．Why is it that the more connected we get，the more disconnected I feel？Every advance in communications technology is a tragedy to the closeness of human interaction．With email and instant messaging over the Internet，we can now communicate without seeing or talking to one another．With voice mail，you can conduct entire conversations without ever reaching anyone．If my mom has a question，I just leave the answer on her machine．
      As almost every contact we can imagine between human beings gets automated，the alienation（疏远） index goes up．You can't even call a person to get the phone number of another person anymore．Directory assistance is almost always fully automated．
     I am not against modern technology．I own a cell phone，an ATM card，a voicemail system，and an email account．Giving them up isn't wise；they're a great help to us．It's some of their possible consequences that make me feel uneasy．
     More and more，I find myself hiding behind email to do a job meant for conversation，or being relieved that voice mail picked up because I didn' t really have time to talk．The industry devoted to helping me keep in touch is making me lonelier，or at least facilitating my antisocial instincts．
     So I've put myself on technology restriction：no instant messaging with people who live near me，no cellphoning in the presence of friends，no letting the voice mail pick up when I'm at home．
  
  （1）Which of the following would be the best title of the passage？

  
  A．The Advance of Communications Technology
  B．The Consequences of Modern Technology
  C．The Story of the Communications Revolution
  D．The Automation of Modern Communications
  （2）The underlined sentence "Now it makes people sitting next to you feel absent．" means that

  D．people can now go to work without going to the office
  （3）The writer feels that the use of modern communications is

  ．
  A．satisfying
  B．encouraging
  C．disappointing
  D．embarrassing
  （4）The passage implies that

  ．
  A．modern technology is bridging people
  B．modern technology is separating people
  C．modern technology is developing too fast
  D．modern technology is interrupting our communication
  （5）What does the underlined word "facilitating" in Paragraph 6 mean？

• 3．In my living room，there is a plaque（匾） that advises me to "Bloom where you are planted．" It reminds me of Dorothy．I got to know Dorothy in the early 1980s，when I was teaching Early Childhood Development through a program with Union College in Barbourville，Kentucky．The job responsibilities required occasional visits to the classroom of each teacher in the program．Dorothy stands out in my memory as one who "bloomed" in her remote area．
     Dorothy taught in a school in Harlan County，Kentucky，Appalachian Mountain area．To get to her school from the town of Harlan，I followed a road winding around the mountain．In the eight mile journey，I crossed the same railroad track five times，giving the possibility of getting caught by the same train five times．Rather than feeling excited by this drive through the mountains，I found it depressing．The poverty level was shocking and the small shabby houses gave me the greatest feeling of hopelessness．
     From the moment of my arrival at the little school，all gloom（忧郁） disappeared．Upon arriving at Dorothy's classroom，I was greeted with smiling faces and treated like a queen．The children had been prepared to show me their latest projects．Dorothy told me with a big smile that they were serving poke greens salad and cornbread for "dinner" （lunch）．In case you don't know，poke greens are a weed type plant that grows wild，especially on poor ground．
     Dorothy never ran out of reports of exciting activities of her students．Her enthusiasm never cooled down．When it came time to sit for the testing and interviewing required to receive her Child Development Associate Certification，Dorothy was ready．She came to the assessment and passed in all areas．Afterward，she invited me to the one and only steak house in the area to celebrate her victory，as if she had received her Ph．D．degree．After the meal，she placed a little box containing an old pen in my hand．She said it was a family heirloom （传家宝），but to me it is a treasured symbol of appreciation and pride that cannot be matched with things．
  
  （1）"Early Childhood Development" in Paragraph 1 refers to

  ．
  A．a program directed by Dorothy
  B．a course given by the author
  C．an activity held by the students
  D．an organization sponsored by Union College
  （2）In the journey，the author was most disappointed at seeing

  ．
  A．the long track
  B．the poor houses
  C．the same train
  D．the winding road
  （3）Upon arriving at the classroom，the author was cheered up by

  ．
  A．a warm welcome
  B．the sight of poke greens
  C．Dorothy's latest projects
  D．a big dinner made for her
  （4）What can we know about Dorothy from the last paragraph？

  
  A．She was invited to a celebration at a restaurant．
  B．She got a pen as a gift from the author．
  C．She passed the required assessment．
  D．She received her Ph．D．degree．
  （5）What does the author mainly intend to tell us？

  
  A．Whatever you do，you must do it carefully．
  B．Whoever you are，you deserve equal treatment．
  C．However poor you are，you have the right to education．
  D．Wherever you are，you can accomplish your achievement．
