Unit 5 Amazing things任务型阅读（含解析）牛津译林版 七年级下册英语题型专项集训
Why do people cry Scientists say the body produces（产生）tears（眼泪）because it needs them. One kind of tears is for the eye, and the other is for the heart. They both work as cleaners. If something else like dust（灰尘）gets into your eye, tears also come into the eye to clean it out. If you are hurt by something, your strong feelings produce some poisonous chemicals（毒素）in your body, and at the same time, tears come out with them. If tears don’t help clean out these poisonous chemicals, they will do harm to the heart.
In the United States, men have heart problems more often than women do. Doctors say heart problems have something to do with the pressure（压力）of living and working now. Perhaps men have more of these illnesses because they do not cry enough. They need to cry more.
In fact, you can find many ways of reducing（减少）the pressure to keep fit. Crying is a natural（自然的）and physical（身体的）one.
根据短文内容，回答下列问题。
1．How many kinds of tears does the body usually produce
2．What do tears do when dust gets into your eye
3．Who has more heart problems, men or women
4．Why do men have more heart illnesses

What does a cake look like Maybe you’ve got lots of different answers in mind, but Zhou Yi and his team’s cakes will certainly make you feel amazed!
Zhou is called China’s “Sugar King”. Last November in the UK, he and his team won three gold medals and two bronze medals（铜牌）at the International Cake Competition, the world’s largest cake competition.
Zhou and his team’s cakes show not only their great cake-making skills, but also traditional Chinese culture and art. For example, one of the gold medal-winning cakes shows China’s first and only female（女性的）emperor Wu Zetian as a young woman. Someone said that the cake showed the beauty of Chinese art to the world.
But don’t think creating such amazing works of art is very easy. “Some parts were made eight times just because the result was not quite what I wanted,” Zhou said. “You need to build every single part over and over again until you find the perfect fit.”
He hopes to let more people know more about China through him.
根据短文内容，回答下列问题。
16．How many medals did Zhou Yi and his team win last November
17．Was it easy for Zhou Yi and his team to make these cakes

Yesterday I visited a museum. There I learn about a lot of amazing facts about man and animals. What interested me most were a talk and some stories about animals.
Do you know how much TV you watch in your life In yesterday’s talk, the scientist said that a man watched TV for over 70,000 hours in his life. It means you sit in front of a TV for 8 years. Do you know how long your hair can be if you don’t cut it The scientist said that it could be as long as 9 metres! Another amazing thing was that you said about 4,200 words a day. That means more than 100 million in your life!
I didn’t like camels before. I thought they were dirty and slow. But now I know they have some amazing abilities (能力). Camels can run over 15 metres per second (秒). And it’s amazing that they can keep walking for days without any food or drinks. Camels can help people in many ways. They can carry things for people.
In the past, I disliked some animals and thought they were dirty and lazy. But now, I find them interesting. Man should be kind to them. It will be great to study animals and do something for them. Let’s work hard to make the world a better place for both man and animals.

If you think you are too shy and want to be a little bit braver, just try the following things: Be open to others. Tell people you are shy. There is no need to hide (掩盖) it. When they get to know you are a shy kid, they will understand you better. This also helps you feel more comfortable in talks.
Try to smile more. When you smile, people think you are friendly and easy to talk with. Remember that other people have feelings too, and most people will stay away from an angry-looking face.
Learn to be a good talker. If you find it hard to start a conversation, say something nice about people around you. Think about how great you feel when someone says something nice to you. Doesn’t it make you want to keep talking to that person
Get your attention elsewhere. Think more about ways to enjoy parties or games. Don’t waste time worrying about your look or whether people like you or not. You will become relaxed and find it’s not so hard to talk with others.
Take one small step at a time. Each time when you say “Hi!” or smile at someone, say to yourself “I can make it.” Keep trying and one day you’ll never feel shy when you talk to others.

World Sleep Day, on 21st March, was created to bring attention to the growing number of sleep problems. Sleep is a natural part of human life, but many people in the modern world don’t realize it’s very important. As a result, sleep problems are quite common.
In 2011, scientists at the University of Athens in Greece did a survey of over 35,000 people in 10 countries around the world, including China, Belgium and South Africa. Among the people, 24 percent said that they did not sleep well, 31.6 percent were diagnosed (诊断) with insomnia (失眠). In addition, 30.7 percent of them have visited doctors for help with sleep problems and 11.6 percent said that they felt very sleepy during the day.
The survey found that many people suffer the effects of poor quality sleep, some even can’t fall asleep and often wake up in the middle of the night. The main reasons of the problems are pressures (压力) from school or work and a fast pace (节奏) of life, but noise pollution and light pollution also affect sleep and cause poor quality sleep. The survey also found that large numbers of people find it hard to sleep at night. The short term effects of this are tiredness and trouble concentrating (专心). If this happens for a long time, the risk of gaining weight and having a heart attack may increase.
There are many things you can do to improve the quality of your sleep. First, you should have regular sleep habits. Try to go to bed and wake up around the same time each day. You also need to make your bedroom a cool, dark, quiet place to sleep so that heat, light and noise do not disturb you. At night, you should also avoid things that contain caffeine, such as chocolate, coffee, tea and many soft drinks, as caffeine may keep you from sleeping.
Getting a good night’s sleep is important for everyone. By following the advice above, you can rest better at night and work better during the day.
Have a good sleep
World Sleep Day World Sleep Day was created to make people 39 the importance of sleep.

Few children grow up without knowing or having a toy bear. But how much do you know about bears’ life
How do bears get food
Some large bears have claws (爪子) about five inches long. They use the claws to get roots (根) and catch fish. In the snow, a polar bear (北极熊) sometimes puts its white claws over its nose and mouth. In this way, it isn’t easy for other small animals to find it. Then it can get those animals for dinner easily.

A little bird was flying south for the winter. It was so cold that the bird froze（冻僵了）and fell to the ground in a large field. When it was lying there, a cow came by and put some hay（干草）on it. As the frozen bird lay there in the pile（堆）of the hay, it began to feel how warm it was. The hay kept it warm! It lay there all warm and happy, and soon began to sing for joy. A passing cat heard the bird singing and came to see what was going on. Following the sound, the cat found the bird under the pile of the hay.

Tom is a TV reporter. An amazing thing happened to Tom yesterday evening. He was walking alone on his way home when he saw bright light in the sky. Then a spacecraft (航天器) showed up. At first he thought it was orange and white, and it was coming closer and closer. Then it stopped a few metres above the ground. He saw two people inside. They had big ears and small eyes, but no hair. Tom thought they were aliens. He had camera with him then, but he was too scared to take a photo. Then he began to feel weak and fell to the ground. An hour later’he woke up. He found himself lying on the grass in front of his house. He couldn’t explain how he got there. Of course he told his friends about this strange experience. All of them said he was kidding.

60．What did the two aliens look like
61．Why didn’t Tom take a photo

There are many things in the world that we don’t understand, and know little about. In 1832, an explorer traveled to the Himalayas (喜马拉雅山脉). The people there told him stories about a strange animal called yeti (雪人). “It lived in the snow,” they said. It was very tall, and much bigger than a man. The explorer didn’t believe the stories. “These people have probably seen a big monkey,” he thought.
But the stories about the yeti continued. A lot of explorers went to the Himalayas. They wanted to find the yeti. Some of the climbers told stories about a strange animal in the snow, but nobody could prove (证实) they had seen it.
In 1925, a photographer named Tombazi said he saw a yeti when he was climbing. It was about 300 metres away from him. He was with some other people, and they saw the yeti, too. Tombazi tried to take a picture, but the yeti was gone! Tombazi went to look at the snow and he found footprints. They were huge!
The best clue about the yeti comes from a scientist called Gene Poirier. He traveled to Himalayas and collected pieces of hair. When people examined the hair, they found something amazing. The hair did not come from any normal animal. Maybe it’s the first real proof (证据) of the yeti!
63．In which century was the explorer told there lived a yeti in Himalayas
64．Has anyone got a picture of a yeti yet
65．The yeti runs very fast, doesn’t it
66．What may be the first real proof of the yeti
67．Put the sentence “The best clue about the yeti comes from a scientist called Gene Poirier.” into Chinese.
For a long time, scientists didn’t study animal thinking.
Most of them didn’t believe that animals could think. They thought humans were the only thinking animals.
Now more scientists are studying this subject. But it’s very hard to prove things that no one can see or measure. So some scientists decided to take a look at brains.
Is bigger brain better No. Cow brains are bigger than dog brains, but that doesn’t make cows smarter than dogs. And squirrels (松鼠) have some of the biggest brains of all for their body size. But squirrels aren’t even close to being the smartest animals in the world. So the size of a brain may give some clues (线索) about brain power, but it doesn’t prove anything.
Other scientists study thinking by watching how animals solve problems, who watch animals in the wild or set up thinking tests in a lab. For example, a scientist might put some food just out of an animal’s reach. One kind of animal may grab (夺取) a stick and use it to slide the food over. Another kind might not be able to figure out a way to get the food. Some scientists think animals that have lots of problems to solve must be smarter than animals with simple lives. Scientists also study certain kinds of behaviour for clues about thinking. They watch for three things: whether animals use tools, how they act with each other, and how they communicate.
68．For the body size, do dogs have smaller brains than squirrels
69．What have scientists learnt from taking a look at the size of animals’ brains
70．How do other scientists study animal thinking
71．What are some certain kinds of behaviour for clues about thinking that scientists study
72．Put the sentence “But it’s very hard to prove things that no one can see or measure.” into Chinese.

63．In the 19th century. 64．No. 65．Yes, it does. 66．The hair. 67．有关雪人的最佳线索是来自一位叫吉恩·普瓦堤埃的科学家。
【分析】这篇文章主要讲述了人们对雪人的探索和发现。1832年，有探险家在喜马拉雅山听到了有关于雪人的描述，据说那是比人高大的一种动物。其后有许多探险家到喜马拉雅山去寻找雪人，其中一些登山者讲述了雪中的一种奇怪动物的故事，但是没有人能证明他们曾看到过。1925年，一位摄影家说他看到了雪人，但是没能拍下照片。但是他发现了它们的脚印，非常的巨大。关于雪人最好的线索是科学家Gene Poirier发现的几片毛发。
63．细节理解题。根据In 1832, an explorer traveled to the Himalayas (喜马拉雅山脉). The people there told him stories about a strange animal called yeti (雪人). 1832年，一位探险家前往喜马拉雅山。那里的人告诉他关于一种叫做雪人的奇怪动物的故事。可知，在19世纪，有人告诉探险家喜马拉雅山有一只雪人。故答案为In the 19th century.
64．细节理解题。由句子Tombazi tried to take a picture, but the yeti was gone! 汤巴兹想拍照，但雪人不见了！可知，现在没有雪人的照片。故答案为No.
65．推理判断题。根据Tombazi tried to take a picture, but the yeti was gone! 汤巴兹想拍照，但雪人不见了！可以推知雪人跑的很快。因此答案为：Yes, it does.
66．细节理解题。由句子The hair did not come from any normal animal. Maybe it’s the first real proof (证据) of the yeti! 头发不是正常动物的。也许这是雪人的第一个真实证据！可知，头发可能是雪人的第一个真正证据。故答案为The hair.
67．句子翻译题。The best clue about the yeti：“有关雪人的最佳线索”；comes from：“来自于……”；a scientist called：“一位叫……的科学家”；Gene Poirier：“吉恩·普瓦堤埃”。所以翻译结果是：有关雪人的最佳线索是来自一位叫吉恩·普瓦堤埃的科学家。
【点睛】回答问题的任务型阅读
该题型是给同学们呈现一段阅读资料，然后设置几个问题，做题时，我们应该先浏览一下问题，心中对所给任务有一个初步的了解，带着问题去阅读，有针对性地阅读，提高阅读效率。
一、阅读全文，了解大意
在做任务型阅读题时，同学们应先浏览文章后所提出的问题，在浏览过任务后，应迅速回头阅读全文了解文章的主要内容，作者想表述的观点，情感等。
二、寻找细节，逐题攻克
对于任务型阅读中的细节考查题，需要同学们有对语言的理解和分析能力，并带着问题回到阅读材料中，采用跳读的方式来寻找细节所在的段落，然后锁定目标段落，寻找总结自己所要的答案。
此外，同学们在答题和书写方面还要注意以下几点：
1. 作答时，要遵循的原则就是：能简略回答的，尽量简略回答。
2. 书写要规范整洁。句子开头首字母要大写；标点符号要规范，单词拼写要正确无误；注意时态的呼应和人称的转变。
3. 做出适当调整。在回答时，同学们应对照题目，根据需要对句子的人称、单复数、时态、语态、词性、主谓搭配等做出适当的调整。
三、通读全文，仔细检查
在完成所有的答题任务后，同学们一定要检查一下自己的答案：是否存在书写问题，首字母是否大写，人称单复数是否按照要求书写，时态、语态、词性、主谓搭配是否正确，要避免不必要的失分。
68．Yes, they do. 69．The size of a brain doesn’t prove how smart the animal is. 70．By watching how animals solve problems. 71．Whether animals use tools, how they act with each other, and how they communicate. 72．但是很难去证明没有人能看到或测量到的事物。
【分析】文章介绍了一些科学家研究动物会不会思考，动物是不是脑子越大越聪明，事实证明不是这样，其他一些科学家通过观察动物解决问题来研究它们的思考，看动物会不会使用工具，他们怎么一起活动，怎么交流。
68．根据And squirrels (松鼠) have some of the biggest brains of all for their body size可知是同样大小的身体，狗的脑子比松鼠的小；故答案是Yes, they do.
69．根据Is bigger brain better No. Cow brains are bigger than dog brains, but that doesn’t make cows smarter than dogs. And squirrels (松鼠) have some of the biggest brains of all for their body size. But squirrels aren’t even close to being the smartest animals in the world. So the size of a brain may give some clues (线索) about brain power, but it doesn’t prove anything可知脑子的大小不能证明动物有多聪明；故答案是The size of a brain doesn’t prove how smart the animal is.
70．根据Other scientists study thinking by watching how animals solve problems,可知观察动物怎么解决问题；故答案是By watching how animals solve problems.
71．根据Scientists also study certain kinds of behaviour for clues about thinking. They watch for three things: whether animals use tools, how they act with each other, and how they communicate.可知是看动物会不会使用工具，他们怎么一起活动，怎么交流；故答案是Whether animals use tools, how they act with each other, and how they communicate.
72．根据it’s+形容词+to do sth.做某事是怎样的，things that no one can see or measure没有人能看到或测量到的事物，故答案是：但是很难去证明没有人能看到或测量到的事物。
【点睛】注意对于文章内容的把握，读懂这个故事后，带着问题去文章中找答案，此类题型一般都是按照顺序找答案。问题是以疑问句形式设计，学生很容易从文中找到答案，特别要注意的是找到关键词。例如：小题4 根据Scientists also study certain kinds of behaviour for clues about thinking. They watch for three things: whether animals use tools, how they act with each other, and how they communicate.可知是看动物会不会使用工具，他们怎么一起活动，怎么交流；故答案是Whether animals use tools, how they act with each other, and how they communicate
