高效作业 22 [选择性必修第二册 Unit 1 Science and Scientists] Ⅰ.阅读理解 A In Gaza，a 15-year-old boy named Hussam Al-Attar has gained recognition for his device that provides electricity to light the tent he shares with his family. Using two fans from a resale market，he created small wind turbines to produce electricity，earning him the nickname： “Newton” of Gaza. This comparison involves the English scientist，Isaac Newton，known for his major scientific discoveries in the fields of physics，mathematics and astronomy. “We here are living in darkness and tragedy，and rockets are falling on us. Therefore I thought of creating light，and did so，” said Al-Attar. His family are staying in a tent that is partly attached to a house. He was able to climb onto the roof to set up two fans，one above the other. The wind can turn the fans，which produce small amounts of electricity. He then connected the fans to wires and built a charging station. Al-Attar also built switches to control a lighting system made out of wood. He said his first two attempts failed and it took him a while to develop a working system. “I started developing it further，bit by bit，until I was able to extend the wires through the room to the tent that we are living in，so that the tent will have light，” he added. Al-Attar added he was happy to be able to create something to help “ease the suffering” of his family members. He said he was looking forward to the future when conditions can improve in Gaza. “I am very happy that people in this camp call me Gaza’s Newton，” Al-Attar said. He added，“Because I hope to achieve my dream of becoming a scientist like Newton and creating an invention that will benefit not only the people of the Gaza Strip，but the whole world.” ( )1.Why is Al-Attar called “Newton” of Gaza A.Because his discoveries affect scientific fields. B.Because his invention is connected with physics. C.Because he becomes scientific about the issues. D.Because he creates a useful device for the tent. ( )2.What can we infer about Al-Attar from Paragraphs 2 and 3 A.His first attempt at creating the device was successful. B.His device has been adopted for use across that region. C.He put great effort into developing a functional system. D.He had a professional background in electrical engineering. ( )3.What motivates Al-Attar to keep going A.His desire to be a scientist. B.His eagerness to give people there hopes. C.His dream of building a charging station. D.His intention to improve his working system. ( )4.Which is the best title for the passage A.Teenage “Newton” Brings Light to Gaza’s Darkness B.Gaza’s Teenage “Newton” Shines Bright in Science C.“Newton” of Gaza： Al-Attar’s Journey to Success D.Al-Attar： A Young Inventor Making a Difference B Have you ever worried that you might smell bad Well，you do have a smell，but not in the way you think. The human body releases hundreds of chemical compounds into the air every day，and ... ...
