A
It was in the Victorian Era (维多利亚时期)that the novel became the leading form of literature in English. Most writers were more concerned to meet the tastes of the middle class. The best known works of the period included the works of Charles Dickens and the Bronte sisters and others.
Charles Dickens came on the literary scene in the 1830s. Dickens wrote vividly about London life and the struggles of the poor. Most of his works were written in a very humorous style, which was popular with readers of all classes.
The Bronte sisters were English writers of the 1840s and 1850s. They began to write from early childhood. In 1846 they published the first book at their own expense as poets; however, their book attracted little attention, selling only two copies. Then the sisters turned to writing novels, each producing a novel in the following year.
An interest in rural(田园的)matters and the changing social and economic situation of the countryside may be seen in the novels of Thomas Hardy and a number of others.
Literature for children developed as a single style. Some works became well-known, such as those of Lewis Carroll and Edward Lear. Adventure novels were written for adults but are now generally grouped in the list for children. Helen Beatrix Potter was an English author at the end of the Victorian Era, best known for her children’s books, which featured (以……为特色)animal characters. In her thirties, Potter published the highly successful children’s book The Tale of Peter Rabbit in 1902.
1. What can we know about Charles Dickens from the text
A. He showed an interest in rural matters in his writing.
B. He focused on changing social and economic situation of the countryside.
C. He wrote about the struggles of the poor in London.
D. He published the highly successful children’s book.
2. Which best describes Bronte sisters
A. They were English writers of the 1930s.
B. They paid to have their first book published.
C. They began their writing from the rural life.
D. Their first book was successful.
3. What does the author state in the last paragraph
A. Edward Lear was famous for writing about animals.
B. Adventure novels were not written for children at first.
C. Thomas Hardy was not as famous as Lewis Carroll.
D. Society changed rapidly in the Victorian Era.
4. What is the text mainly about
A. Literature in the Victorian Era.
B. Writing styles in the Victorian Era.
C. Famous works in the Victorian Era.
D. The importance of literature in the Victorian Era.
B
Literature is an important part of a total language arts program at all grade levels because of the many benefits it offers.
Literature provides pleasure to listeners and readers. It is a relaxing escape from daily problems, and it fills leisure moments. Making time for recreational reading and using high-quality literature help to develop enthusiastic readers and improve achievement. Developing a love of literature as a recreational activity is possibly the most important outcome of a literature program.
Literature builds experience. Through reading, children expand their horizons through vicarious (间接体验的) experiences. They visit new places, gain new experiences, and meet new people. They learn about the past as well as the present and learn about a variety of cultures, including their own. They discover the common goals and similar emotions found in people of all times and places. Nory Ryan’s Song by Patricia Reilly Giff, a hard survival story, is set in Ireland during the potato Blight(饥荒) of 1845, and Patricia Polacco’s The Butterfly, deals with Nazis, resistance, and Jewish persecution(迫害)during World War Ⅱ.
Literature provides a language model for those who hear and read it. Good literature exposes children to correct sentence patterns, standard story structures, and varied word usage. Children for whom English is a second language can improve their English with the interesting context, and all children benefit from new vocabulary that is woven into the stories.
Literature develops thinking skills. Discussions of literature bring out reasoning related to sequence; cause and effect; character motivation; predictions; visualization of actions, characters, and settings; critical analysis of the story; and creative responses.
Literature helps children deal with their problems. By finding out about the problems of others through books, children receive insights into dealing with their own problems, a process called bibliotherapy. Children might identify with Gilly, living angrily in a foster home in Katherine Paterson’s The Great Gilly Hopkins, or with Mary Alice, a city girl forced to live with her grandma in a “hick town” in Richard Peck’s A Year Down Yonder.
5. What is likely to be the most significant consequence of a literature program
A. The habit of reading for pleasure.
B. The lessons learned from works.
C. The achievements of language skills.
D. The ways of thinking developed by reading.
6. Why are Nory Ryan’s Song and The Butterfly mentioned in Paragraph 3
A. To introduce two great masterpieces.
B. To expand children’s horizons in literature.
C. To prove literature includes a variety of cultures.
D. To give examples of books that provide such experiences.
7. From the last paragraph we know that literature can be______.
A. educational B. practical
C. changeable D. reliable
8. What could be the best title of the text
A. Power of Books
B. Ways of Reading
C. Source of Human Progress
D. Benefits of Literature
V. 七选五
Money Matters
Parents should help their children understand money. 1 So you may start talking about money when your child shows an interest in buying things, candy or toys, for example.
1. The basic function of money
Explain the basic function of money by showing how people trade money for goods or services. It is important to show your child how money is traded for the thing he wants to have. If he wants to have a toy, give him the money and let him hand the money to the cashier(收银员) 2 When your child grows a bit older and understands the basic function of money, you can start explaining more complex ways of using money.
2. Money lessons
Approach money lessons with openness and honesty. 3 If you must say no to a child’s request to spend money, explain, ”You have enough toy trucks for now. ” Or, if the request is for many different things, say. “You have to make a choice between this toy and that toy. ”
3. 4
Begin at the grocery store. Pick out similar brands of a product—a name brand butter and a generic (无商标产品), for example. You can show your child how to make choices between different brands of a product so that you can save money. 5 If he chooses the cheaper brand, allow him to make another purchase with the money saved. Later, you may explain how the more expensive choice leaves less money for other purchases.
A. Wise decisions.
B. The value of money.
C. Permit the child why he can—or cannot—have certain things.
D. Tell your child why he can or can’t have certain things.
E. Ask yourself what things that cost money are most important to you.
F. Talk about how the money bought the thing after you leave the toy store.
G. The best time to teach a child anything about money is when he shows an interest.

It was summer, and my dad wanted to treat me to a vacation like never before. He decided to take me on a trip to the Wild West.
We took a plane to Albuquerque, a big city in the state of New Mexico. We reached Albuquerque in the late afternoon. Uncle Paul, my dad’s friend, picked us up from the airport and drove us up to his farm in Pecos.
His wife Tina cooked us a delicious dinner and we got to know his sons Ryan and Kyle. My dad and I spent the night in the guestroom of the farm house listening to the frogs and water rolling down the river nearby. Very early in the morning, Uncle Paul woke us up to have breakfast. “The day starts at dawn on my farm, ” he said. After breakfast, I went to help Aunt Tina feed the chickens. while my dad went with Uncle Paul to take the sheep out to graze(吃草). I was impressed to see my dad and Uncle Paul riding horses. They looked really cool.
In the afternoon, I asked Uncle Paul if I could take a horse ride, and he said yes, as long as my dad went with me. I wasn’t going to take a horse ride by myself anyway. So, my dad and I put on our new cowboy hats, got on our horses, and headed slowly towards the mountains. “Don’t be late for supper, ” Uncle Paul cried, “and keep to the track so that you don’t get lost! ” “OK! ” my dad cried back. After a while Uncle Paul and his farm house were out of sight. It was so peaceful and quiet and the colors of the brown rocks, the deep green pine trees, and the late afternoon sun mixed to create a magic scene. It looked like a beautiful woven(编织的)blanket spread out upon the ground just for us.

Step 2 妙笔成篇
Suddenly a little rabbit jumped out in front of my horse. Instinctively, I yelled out loud, pulling back the reins hard in order to stop the horse from hurting the little creature. Badly startled by the sudden incident, the horse sped off the track into another direction. Dad followed closely behind, calling out to tell me how to soothe the terrified horse and I did as told. Finally, the horse calmed down, but we seemed to get lost, unable to go back to the mountain road.
We had no idea where we were and it was getting dark. Wandering around, we were still stuck in the dilemma. Much to our delight, the sound of water in the distance caught our attention and drove us to the river bank. Dad proposed that we should walk along the river which may lead us to the farm house and nothing seemed better than that. Time appeared to be merrier and shorter when I stayed together with Dad and before long, the farm house came into sight. What a thrilling but memorable experience it was!必修第三册Unit 5综合检测

More students than ever before are taking a gap year(间隔年) before going to university. It used to be called the “year off” between school and university. The gap-year phenomenon originated(起源) with the months left over to Oxbridge applicants between entrance exams in November and the start of the next academic year.
This year, 25, 310 students who have accepted places in higher education institutions have put off their entry until next year, according to statistics on university entrance provided by the University and College Admissions Service (UCAS).
That is a record 14. 7% increase in the number of students taking a gap year. Tony Higgins from UCAS said that the statistics are good news for everyone in higher education. “Students who take a well-planned year out are more likely to be satisfied with, and complete, their chosen courses. Students who take a gap year are often more mature and responsible, ” he said.
But not everyone is happy. Owain James, the president of the National Union of Students (NUS), argued that the increase is evidence of student hardship—young people are being forced into earning money before finishing their education. “New students are now aware that they are likely to leave university up to ￡15, 000 in debt. It is not surprising that more and more students are taking a gap year to earn money to support their study for the degree. NUS statistics show that over 40% of students are forced to work during term time and the figure increases to 90% during vacation periods, ” he said.
24. What do we learn about the gap year from the text
A. It is flexible in length.
B. It is a time for relaxation.
C. It is increasingly popular.
D. It is required by universities.
25. According to Tony Higgins, students taking a gap year .
A. are better prepared for college studies
B. know a lot more about their future jobs
C. are more likely to leave university in debt
D. have a better chance to enter top universities
26. How does Owain James feel about the gap-year phenomenon
A. He’s puzzled. B. He’s worried.
C. He’s surprised. D. He’s annoyed.
27. What would most students do on their vacation according to NUS statistics
A. Attend additional courses.
B. Make plans for the new term.
C. Earn money for their education.
D. Prepare for their graduate studies.

A good modern newspaper is an extraordinary piece of reading. It’s great first for what it contains: the range of news from local crime to international politics, from sports to business, from fashion to science, and the range of comment and special feature as well, from editorial page to feature articles and interviews to criticism of books, art theatre and music.
A newspaper is even greater for the way one reads it: never completely, never straight through, but always by jumping from here to there, in and out, glancing at one piece, reading another article all the way through, reading just a few paragraphs of the text.
A good modern newspaper offers a variety to attract many different readers, but far more than the reader is interested in. What brings this variety together in one place is its topicality(时事性), its immediate relation to what is happening in your world and your locality now. But immediacy and the speed of production that goes with it also mean that much of what appears in a newspaper has no more than transient(短暂的) value.
For all these reasons, no two people really read the same paper: what each person does is to put together, out of the pages of that day’s paper, his own selection and order, his own newspaper. For all these reasons, reading newspapers efficiently, which means getting what you want from them without missing things you need and without wasting time, demands skill and self-awareness as you change and apply the techniques of reading.
28. A modern newspaper is great for all the following EXCEPT its .
A. wide variety
B. similar style
C. speed in reporting news
D. popularity
29. According to the passage, the reason why no two people really read the same newspaper is that .
A. people look through the news they are interested in
B. different people prefer different newspapers
C. people are rarely interested in the same kind of news
D. people have different views about what a good newspaper is
30. It can be concluded from the passage that newspaper readers .
A. apply reading techniques skillfully
B. jump from one newspaper to another
C. appreciate the variety of a newspaper
D. usually read a newspaper selectively
31. The author wrote the passage to .
A. advertise B. introduce
C. argue D. compare
D
Eat like a king in the morning, a prince at noon, and a peasant at night. This saying is all about the importance of breakfast. And now scientists can tell us just why it’s so important. According to a study carried out at Imperial College London, UK, skipping the first meal of the day not only means you eat more at lunch, but also that your brain wants to find more unhealthy foods.
The study suggests that there is a special part of our brain called the orbitofrontal cortex, which plays an important part in making choices about what we eat. It is used for identifying the taste of food, especially when skipping breakfast. It is more likely to target high-calorie foods when you’re on an empty stomach.
Scientists did an experiment on this. Dr Tony Goldstone from Imperial College London, scanned the brains of 21 men and women, around the age of 25. On the first day, these people skipped breakfast before the scans. On the second day, they had cereal, bread and jam as breakfast. After the scan on both days, they had their lunch.
When the volunteers had skipped breakfast, they ate around 20 percent more at lunch, compared with days when they had eaten breakfast. Their brain scans also showed the orbitofrontal cortex was especially responsive to high-calorie foods. “We believe that bit identifies the value of foods — how pleasant, how delicious something is, ” Goldstone told The Guardian.
32. From Paragraph 1, we learn that .
A. scientists found out why eating breakfast is important
B. it’s easy to lose weight without breakfast
C. there’s no need to have good food for supper
D. eating breakfast makes your brain smarter
33. Which is the correct order for the experiment on the first day
①The volunteers skipped breakfast.
②The volunteers had lunch.
③The volunteers had a brain scan.
A. ①②③ B. ③②①
C. ①③② D. ③①②
34. In the experiment, the volunteers without breakfast ate about 20% at lunch.
A. of the usual breakfast
B. more than the usual breakfast
C. of the usual lunch
D. more than the usual lunch
35. Which of the following can be the title for this passage
A. Breakfast still most important
B. Three meals a day
C. Experiments on breakfast
D. Experiments on lunch

Nature is the best laboratory for learning about nature. For ten years, every student at Wadsworth Middle School has been looking forward to his or her turn to attend a three-day science camp. 36. __________ Science camp is important to the students, and we must raise the money necessary to save it.
Without science camp, students will miss out on a unique learning experience. In science class, they learn to identify rocks by picking them up out of a box. 37. __________ Science camp also lets students experiment with different forms of energy. For example, students get to build miniature (微型的) steam engines that are powered by campfires. They also make solar panels that heat camp water. These experiences would be tough to create in a classroom.
Science camp is for everybody, and it won’t be saved unless everybody helps raise money for it. To get started, Principal Jeffries and the student council could set up a “science camp fund(资金)” at a local bank. Every year, science camp costs $3, 000. 38.
Some people say it’s too much work to save science camp, but the fact is that if we all help out, we can reach our goal easily. 39. __________ For example, we could hold a talent auction(拍卖). By washing cars, babysitting, or using other talents, students can meet the goal. We could also hold a bake sale. Students could even ask local businesses to sponsor them.
40. __________ If we all work together, we’ll easily raise the money to save it.
A. Students can raise money in many ways.
B. Now it might be canceled because of budget cuts.
C. They investigate the world through hands-on science.
D. Science camp is perfect for creative and curious ones.
E. Science camp is a great tradition that deserves to be saved.
F. That sounds expensive, but if every student raises just $10, the fund would be filled.
G. At science camp, they learn to identify rocks by finding them in mountain sides or river beds.

Besides, one of my favorite experiences living in the inner city for many years was sitting on the front doorstep of our home spending time with strangers.

90, 000 Doughnuts(甜甜圈)
It was a day just like any other in our small country town. My youngest, Tyler, and I stopped by our corner store to buy a drink and snack after school. A few police cars caught Tyler’s attention, and when we walked inside, we saw the police officers were having lunch in the back corner. “Mom, you know policemen’s favorite drink is coffee, and their favorite food is doughnuts, right ” I laughed and agreed. “Can I use my money and buy them some mini doughnuts to say ‘thank you’ ”
“Of course! ” I said.
As I watched Tyler thank them, I felt pride. After a few minutes, we left the store, and I thought to myself, What a beautiful moment! But then Tyler asked a question that would change our lives and the lives of countless others forever.
“Why were the police so happy about that snack ”
I went on to explain that some people are not always kind to police officers and have even hurt them. Tyler was very sad to hear this, and decided that he was going to thank every policeman in the country and buy them each a doughnut!
I was quite shocked by his response, but it never occurred to me to say “no”. In fact, I thought it was an unachievable idea. I suggested many other choices, such as doing a local thank-you event for police, but nothing I said was enough for this young, determined child on a new found mission(任务).
He was going to thank every police officer in the country and buy them each a doughnut!
I had no idea how to put all of this enthusiasm into action, but I knew one thing. Tyler had found his purpose, and it was my duty as his parent to help him achieve it. I sent an e-mail to our local police office and asked if Tyler could host a thank-you event for them. They were very happy. At the event, Tyler was introduced as “The Donut Boy”, a name that has become known throughout the nation.

Dear Mr Jones,
I’m Li Hua, a student in English and American Literature Class. I’m writing to ask you for some help.
Actually I am a fan of English and American literature, so I like your class very much. Unfortunately, I have met some difficulties in learning English poetry recently. For example, there are so many new words in the poems that it is difficult for me to understand them. What’s more, I cannot find exact Chinese for some poems. Would you be so kind as to offer me some advice on how to learn English poetry
Looking forward to your early reply.
Yours,
Li Hua

【参考范文】
A week later, an unexpected phone came inviting us to fly to Oregon to thank the police. I will never forget the plane ride. Tyler had never flown before and he was so nervous, yet so excited to meet more of his heroes. We had just taken off when he looked over at me and said seriously, “See Mom, I said I can make it. ” We spent two days thanking the policemen there and hearing their stories. By the time we left, Tyler’s mission had been discovered by more police stations. We kept planning thank-you events.
Now it’s three years since a simple act of kindness led to a wonderful idea in an eight-year-old boy. In forty-eight states, more than 90, 000 doughnuts have been delivered so far, with no end in sight. In this course, we have made memories that will last a lifetime, have stories that are almost unbelievable, have laughed and cried. But most importantly, we have served those who serve us daily and spread kindness in the world. Through this kindness, Tyler becomes more responsible and confident and I begin to believe nothing is impossible. This is Tyler’s story—to thank police in every state at least once.
