高考英語一輪總復習 Unit 3 A healthy life課時作業(yè) 新人教版選修6.閱讀理解A(xx·天津卷) When asked about happiness，we usually think of something extraordinary，an absolute delight，which seems to get rarer the older we get.For kids，happiness has a magical quality.Their delight at winning a race or getting a new bike is unreserved(毫無掩飾的)In the teenage years the concept of happiness changes.Suddenly it's conditional on such things as excitement，love and popularity.I can still recall the excitement of being invited to dance with the most attractive boy at the school party.In adulthood the things that bring deep joylove，marriage，birthalso bring responsibility and the risk of loss.For adults，happiness is plicated(復雜的)My definition of happiness is“the capacity for enjoyment”The more we can enjoy what we have，the happier we are.It's easy to overlook the pleasure we get from the pany of friends，the freedom to live where we please，and even good health.I experienced my little moments of pleasure yesterday.First I was overjoyed when I shut the last lunchbox and had the house to myself.Then I spent an uninterrupted morning writing，which I love.When the kids and my husband came home，I enjoyed their noise after the quiet of the day.Psychologists tell us that to be happy we need a mix of enjoyable leisure time and satisfying work.I don't think that my grandmother，who raised 14 children，had much of either.She did have a network of close friends and family，and maybe this is what satisfied her.We，however，with so many choices and such pressure to succeed in every area，have turned happiness into one more thing we've got to have.We're so selfconscious about our “right”to it that it's making us miserable.So we chase it and equal it with wealth and success，without noticing that the people who have those things aren't necessarily happier.Happiness isn't about what happens to usit's about how we see what happens to us.It's the skillful way of finding a positive for every negative.It's not wishing for what we don't have，but enjoying what we do possess.文章大意快樂與事情本身沒有關系，與我們怎樣看待事情有關。珍惜我們所擁有的，滿足感會讓我們感到幸福、快樂。1As people grow older，they_.Afeel it harder to experience happinessBassociate their happiness less with othersCwill take fewer risks in pursuing happinessDtend to believe responsibility means happiness解析：細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第一段中的“an absolute delight，which seems to get rarer the older we get”可知。答案：A2What can we learn about the author from Paragraphs 5 and 6?AShe cares little about her own health.BShe enjoys the freedom of traveling.CShe is easily pleased by things in daily life.DShe prefers getting pleasure from housework.解析：細節(jié)理解題。從文章第五、六兩段知，作者會因朋友的陪伴、可以自由選擇住的地方、身體健康、孩子們玩耍的聲音而感到快樂，也就是說作者很容易因為日常生活中的小事而產(chǎn)生滿足感，從而感到快樂，故C項正確。答案：C3What can be inferred from Paragraph 7?APsychologists think satisfying work is key to happiness.BPsychologists' opinion is well proved by Grandma's case.CGrandma often found time for social gatherings.DGrandma's happiness came from modest expectations of life.解析：推理判斷題。作者用了“I don't think that my grandmother.had much of either”來否定了心理學家的看法，故選D。答案：D4People who equal happiness with wealth and success_.Aconsider pressure something blocking their wayBstress their right to happiness too muchCare at a loss to make correct choicesDare more likely to be happy解析：細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第八段的“We're so selfconscious about ourright to it that it's making us miserable.”可知。答案：B5What can be concluded from the passage?AHappiness lies between the positive and the negative.BEach man is the master of his own fate.CSuccess leads to happiness.DHappy is he who is content.解析：主旨歸納題。在文章最后一段，作者提出“快樂與事情本身沒有關系，與我們怎樣看待事情有關”，呼吁人們珍惜他們所擁有的，滿足感會讓他們覺得快樂。答案：DB(xx·山東卷)George Gershwin，born in 1898，was one of America's greatest posers.He published his first song when he was eighteen years old.During the next twenty years he wrote more than five hundred songs.Many of Gershwin's songs were first written for musical plays performed in theatres in New York City.These plays were a popular form of entertainment in the 1920s and 1930s.Many of his songs have remained popular as ever.Over the years they have been sung and played in every possible way from jazz to country.In the 1920s there was a debate in the United States about jazz music.Could jazz，some people asked，be considered serious music? In 1924 jazz musician and orchestra leader Paul Whiteman decided to organize a special concert to show that jazz was serious music.Gershwin agreed to pose something for the concert before he realized he had just a few weeks to do it.And in that short time，he posed a piece for piano and orchestra which he called Rhapsody in Blue.Gershwin himself played the piano at the concert.The audience were thrilled when they heard his music.It made him world­famous and showed that jazz music could be both serious and popular.In 1928，Gershwin went to Paris.He applied to study position (作曲)with the well­known musician Nadia Boulanger，but she rejected him.She was afraid that classical study would ruin his jazz­influenced style.While there，Gershwin wrote An American in Paris.When it was first performed，critics (評論家)were divided over the music.Some called it happy and full of life，to others it was silly and boring.But it quickly became popular in Europe and the United States.It still remains one of his most famous works.George Gershwin died in 1937，just days after doctors learned he had brain cancer.He was only thirty­nine years old.Newspapers all over the world reported his death on their front pages.People mourned the loss of the man and all the music he might have still written.文章大意本文為人物傳記類文章。本文講述了美國偉大爵士音樂作曲家George Gershwin的音樂生涯及爵士樂在歷史上存在的一些爭議。6Many of Gershwin's musical works were_.Awritten about New YorkersBposed for Paul WhitemanCplayed mainly in the countrysideDperformed in various ways 解析：細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段話末句“Over the years they have been sung and played in every possible way from jazz to country”可知。答案：D7What do we know about the concert organized by Whiteman?AIt attracted more people to theatres.BIt proved jazz could be serious music.CIt made Gershwin leader of the orchestra.DIt caused a debate among jazz musicians.解析：細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段話“.showed that jazz music could be both serious and popular”可知此次音樂會是證明了爵士樂也可以是嚴肅音樂。答案：B8What did Gershwin do during his stay in Paris?AHe created one of his best works.BHe studied with Nadia Boulanger.CHe argued with French critics.DHe changed his music style.解析：細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段，他在巴黎寫了An American in Paris及后文“it quickly became popular in Europe and the United States.It still remains one of his most famous works”可知A項合題意。答案：A9What do we learn from the last paragraph?AMany of Gershwin's works were lost.BThe death of Gershwin was widely reported.CA concert was held in memory of Gershwin.DBrain cancer research started after Gershwin's death.解析：推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段話“Newspapers all over the world reported his death on their front pages”可知。答案：B10Which of the following best describes Gershwin?ATalented and productive.BSerious and boring.CPopular and unhappy.DFriendly and honest.解析：推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段話“George Gershwin，born in 1898，was one of Americas greatest posers.He published his first song when he was eighteen years old.” 可知他極具天賦；再根據(jù)第一段話“During the next twenty years he wrote more than five hundred songs”可知他是多產(chǎn)的作曲家。通讀全文，我們也不難得出結論。答案：A.閱讀下面材料，在空白處填入適當?shù)膬热?不多于3個單詞)或括號內單詞的正確形式。Dear Gill，Do you remember me telling you about a health farm I've seen advertised?
