1、山东省滕州市第三中学2016-2017学年度高三下学期英语第一周强化训练题学校:_姓名：_班级：_考号：_一、阅读理解ACancer is a terrible disease. Every year in the UK, more than 330,000 people get cancer, and doctors usually use a kind of therapy called radiotherapy to treat people. This treatment uses high energy X-rays to destroy the disease, but the e

2、ffects of treatment can be nearly as bad as the cancer. As the X-rays destroy the cancer cells, they also damage healthy cells that are next to them. Its like using a shotgun to kill an insect. When really important parts of a persons body are hurt by the X-ray energy, it can have very bad results.

3、It can also make more cancer grow in the damaged places in the future.A new therapy that uses protons(质子) instead of X-ray energy could be the answer to the problem. In a project called PRaVDA, scientists from the UK and South Africa are working to this. If X-ray energy is like a shotgun, then proto

4、ns can work more like a laser. Scientists can make protons travel through someones body without hurting them, and only damage the cancer.The PRaVDA scientists use computers to make a 3-D model of the cancer cells to make sure the protons go to the right places. “Its more accurate,” said Michaela Esp

5、osito, PhD, from the University of Lincoln.Building this technology was very difficult, though. Professor Nigel Allinson from the University of Lincoln, the project leader, has put together a team of many different kinds of scientists with different skills. Those skills were all needed to make what

6、he calls “one of the most complex” medical machines ever. Its also 10 times more expensive than X-ray radiotherapy. Even so, Allinson believes that most cancer treatment will be done by protons in the future. “I think it will improve the quality of life of many cancer patients,” he says.1What point

7、does the first paragraph make?A. Cancer is a really terrible disease.B. Lots of people get cancer every year in the UK.C. Radiotherapy isnt a perfect way to cure cancer.D. Radiotherapy is a commonly used therapy against cancer.2 What can be concluded about the new therapy?A. Its much cheaper than X-

8、ray radiotherapy.B. It depends on protons to locate the cancer cells.C. Damaging the cancer by replacing X-rays with lasers is much more accurate.D. It uses protons to damage the cancer cells without damaging healthy cells.3According to Professor Allinson, the new therapy .A. will enable cancer pati

9、ents to enjoy a better lifeB. will cure most cancers in the futureC. will ensure that cancer patients live longerD. will replace radiotherapy completely4 What can be inferred from the text?A. Science and technology are a double-edged sword.B. Not every cancer patient will be able to afford proton th

10、erapy.C. Radiotherapy is completely the wrong way to cure cancer.D. The complex medical machine mentioned will soon be put into use.BWhen Dawn Bonfield, the former chief executive of the Womens Engineering Society, ran a stand recently at a big military air show, she was in for a shock.There were ar

11、ound 900 Brownies among the crowd and Ms Bonfield says, Im saying to all these girls, Do you know about engineering, would you like to be an engineer, have you thought about engineering? And in the whole day. probably five or six of them said yes. Every other one said no, just straight out no.What s

12、urprised her most, she says, is that it wasnt that these eight and nine-year-old girls didnt know what engineering was. Simply that they had already switched off. They had lost interest in engineering. So how much work does it take to change that? asks Ms Bonfield. I mean its huge.Theres no shortage

13、 of data to back up her estimation of the scale of work required. The latest figures from the Office for National Statistics show that women make up around just 8% of engineers in the UK. And this is at a time when the UK needs to produce thousands more engineers, so much so that the inventor, Sir J

14、ames Dyson, is planning to open his own instituteto address the skills shortage.Not enough female role models is well documented as a reason why girls dont choose engineering.The attitude of parents was also an important factor in career choices. For girls, perhaps unsurprisingly, mothers were parti

15、cularly influential.My mum was a bit iffy about it at first because she was more like, Girls should do this and that and the other, more like keep your posture up and be ladylike, says middle school student Hannah. But my dad used to build a lot of stuff and he got me into that. So after my mum saw

19、t the demand of society.CStanding in line for the latest iPhone at the Apple store, queuing for tickets to Wimbledon or even just waiting at the post office might just have got a lot easier. Japanese car-maker Nissan announces that it has just the thing to relieve the painful legs of tired queuers.

20、The new system of self-driving chairs is designed to detect when someone at the front of the queue is called, and automatically move everyone else one step forward in line. The new invention is shown off in a company video, which shows a busy restaurant with patrons waiting outside. In the video, di

21、ners are sitting in a row of chairs, but will not have to stand when the next hungry diner is called to a table. Instead, the chairs, equipped with autonomous technology that detects the seat ahead, move along a path toward the front of the line. When the person at the front of the queue is called,

22、the empty chair at the front can sense it is empty and so moves out of pole position. Cameras on the remaining chairs then sense the movement and follow automatically. The system, which is similar to the kind used in Nissans autonomous vehicle technology, will be tested at select restaurants in Japa

23、n this year, Nissan said. “It appeals to anyone who has queued for hours outside a crowded restaurant: it eliminates the boredom and physical pain of standing in line,” Nissan added. Although Tokyo has some 160,000 restaurants, long queues are not uncommon. Chosen restaurants that meet the criteria

24、will be able to show the chairs outside their restaurant next year.
