Unit 1 Festivals around the world李仕才***阅读理解。

Everyone knows that death is natural, but do you have any idea of the process of dying? Modern scientists divide the process of dying into two stages — clinical or temporary death and biological death. Clinical death occurs when the vital organs, such as the heart or lungs, have stopped functioning, but have not suffered permanent damage. The organism can still be saved. Biological death occurs when changes in the organism lead to the “breaking up” of vital ce lls and tissues. Death is then unchangeable and final.Scientists have been seeking a way to prolong the period of clinical death so that the organism can remain alive before biological death occurs. The best method developed so far involves cooling the organism, combined with narcotic (麻醉) sleep. By slowing down the body’s metabolism (新陈代谢), cooling delays the processes leading to biological death.To show how this works, scientists performed an experiment on a six-year-old female monkey called Keta. The scientist put Keta to sleep with a narcotic. Then they surrounded her body with ice-bags and began checking her body temperature. When it had dropped to 28 degrees the scientists began taking blood out from an artery (动脉). The monkey’s blood pressure decrea sed and an hour later both the heart and breathing stopped: clinical death set in. For twenty minutes Keta remained in this state. Her temperature dropped to 22 degrees. At this point the scientists pumped blood into an artery in the direction of the heart and started artificial breathing. After two minutes Keta’s heart became active once more. After fifteen minutes, spontaneous (自发的) breathing began, and after four hours Keta opened her eyes and lifted her head. After six hours, when the scientists tried to give her a penicillin (青霉素) injection, Keta seized the syringe (注射器)and ran with it around the room. Her behavior differed little from that of a healthy animal.1.For a person who suffers from the clinical death _________.A. he is still very much aliveB. he cannot avoid final deathC. his most important organs are damaged foreverD. he still has the possibility of getting back to life2.Scientists try to make the time of clinical death longer in order to _________.A. cool the organismB. delay the coming of biological deathC. slow down the body’s metabolismD. bring vital cells and tissues back to active life3.The text mainly talks about _________.A. clinical death and biological deathB.an experiment on a monkeyC. the meaning of deathD. the process before death4.From the underlined sentence in the last paragraph we can know that _________.A. Keta was impoliteB. Keta was healthyC. Keta was illD. Keta was crazy【文章大意】本文主要叙述了为了延缓生理死亡的到来，科学家尽量延长临床死亡的时间。

Unit 1 Festivals around the world李仕才一、阅读理解I'm sometimes told，“You have to make your own luck.If you don't try something，how can you succeed？”This is very true for competitions.There are people who regularly take part in all sorts of competitions with great enthusiasm.These people are nicknamed compers.The motivation for being a comper is obvious：it's about being a winner and being rewarded with a prize.These prizes can be small or large：from a box of chocolates to a new car，a trip of a lifetime around the world，or even a new house.Isn't that worth competing for?Of course competitions that offer money prizes attract entry from millions of people，making the odds of winning very unlikely.But one man who has been lucky is a retired lecturer from the UK called Martin Dove.He is a serial comper and has managed to bag prizes such as a yacht and a racehorse.Martin says：“I've been a comper for 40 years.It's like admitting some addiction，isn't it？”He gets respect from other compers and also admits，“Some people ha ve called me the Master of Comping，the King of Comping，the Guru of Comping.But it's just a word，just a phrase.It's just because I frequently appeared in the media.”For many，winning remains a dream，but they continue to try their luck as there's always a small chance that they might succeed.But what if you do win? Then you have to ask：how am I going to spend all that money? Some people say that “money can't buy you happiness”．What do you think?1．What does the author mean by“This is very true for competitions”？A．Competitions bring people luck.B．One must be in a competition to win it.C．Trying gets people to succeed.D．People naturally compete with each other.2．Who are compers?A．Those always standing out in competitions.B．Those addicted to entering competitions.C．Those often entering competitions for prizes.D．Those competing for others' recognition.3．What does the underlined word“odds”probably mean?A．Possibility. B．Investment.C．Importance. D．Advantage.4．What do Martin's words suggest?A．Any job can offer opportunities.B．He has attracted considerable attention.C．Persistence is the key to his success.D．He has set a good example to others.【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文，阐述了一种社会现象：有些人总是热衷于参加各种形式的比赛活动，目的就是获奖。

Unit 1 Festivals around the world李仕才一、阅读理解。

(2018·成都市高中毕业班诊断性检测)Johannes Vermeer is such a quiet and introspective(内省的)artist that it took hundreds of years for anyone to notice he was a genius.A major Vermeer exhibition opens this month at the Louvre in Paris, whose permanent collection includes his great painting of a woman absorbed in close, visually demanding work, The Lacemaker (about 1669－1670). Like other paintings by Vermeer, this image represents modern culture.So attracted are today’s art lovers by Vermeer that it was thought shocking when a recent survey found that 82% of Americans can’t name who painted Girl with a Pearl Earring. Well, maybe they don’t go to the movies much.It is not true to say he was forgotten—that would suggest he was famous in his lifetime. He was not. Vermeer was one more painter among the many who worked for money in the Dutch Republic in the 17th century. He was not a star like Rembrandt. He obviously took himself and his art seriously. His self­referential painting T he Art of Painting proves that. Even though he worked all his life in Delft, he painted only 35 known works and left his family poor when he died in 1675 at the age of 43.It is fitting that Paris is celebrating Vermeer, because it was the French avant ­garde(先锋派)in the 19th century who saved him from being completely forgotten. Compare his painting Woman in Blue Reading a Letter or The Little Street with, say, Edouard Manet’s A Bar at the Folies­Bergère(1882)or Camille Pissarro’s The Boulevard Montmartre at Night (1897) and it is easy to see why the art of Vermeer found its natural audience in Parisian Bohemia.All these artists are likely to have known about and admired Vermeer due to the efforts of the critic Thoré­Bürger, a veteran of the 1848 Revolution.Vermeer’s rediscovery is part of the history of modern French art. Vermeer is not only a great artist. He is a great modern artist.【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了著名画家Johannes Vermeer的生平和他的艺术特点。
