Ⅳ.阅读理解
I arrived in the class ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )room, ready to share my knowledge and experience with 76 students who would be my English literature class.Having taught in the US for 17 years, I have no doubt about my ability to hold their attention and to impress on them my admiration for the literature of my mother tongue.www-2-1-cnjy-com
I was shocked when ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) the monitor shouted，“Stand up！” The entire class rose as I entered the room and I was somewhat confused about how to get them to sit down again, but once the embarrassment was over, I quickly regained my calmness and admiration. I went back to my office with the rosy glow which came from a strong sense of achievement.
My students ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )kept diaries.However, as I read them, the rosy glow was gradually replaced by a strong sense of sadness. The first diary said，“Our literature teacher didn't teach us anything today. Perhaps her next lecture will be better.”Greatly surprised, I read diary after diary, each expressing a similar theme.Didn't I teach them anything I described the entire Western philosophy (哲学) and laid the historical background for all the works we will study in class. I complained, “How should they say I didn't teach them anything？”21*cnjy*com
It was a long term, ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) and it gradually became clear that my ideas about education were not the same as those of my students. I thought a teacher's job was to raise interesting questions and provide enough background so that students could draw their own conclusions. My students thought a teacher's job was to provide exact information as directly and clearly as possible. What a difference!
However, I als ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )o learned a lot, and the experience with my Chinese students has made me a better American teacher, knowing how to teach in a different culture.
1．The writer wants to tell us through her experience that ________.

D．different countries have different cultures even in teaching
2．We can know that on the first day the writer ________.
A．was disappointed at her students' performance
B．felt very confident about herself at first
C．felt she didn't teach them much
D．was very confident about her students
3．At the beg ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )inning of the lesson, the writer got confused because of ________.
A．cultural differences
B．her own embarrassment
C．students' embarrassment
D．students' admiration

A．raise interesting questions
B．know more about background
C．draw their own conclusions

A．the writer doubted about her ability of teachingwww.21-cn-jy.com
B．the writer is still teaching Western philosophy in China2-1-c-n-j-y
C．different cultures may require different teaching methods 21*cnjy*com
D．the writer's experience has made her return to her own country

课时作业(三)
Ⅰ.1.energetic 2.serious 3.patient 4.intelligent
5．organized 6.nervous 7.shy 8.amusing
9．admitted 10.respected
Ⅱ.1.A 考查with复合结构。由于table与lay(搁放)之间是逻辑上的动宾关系，所以空格处用过去分词表示被动。
2．B 句意：我有一个会议并且我应该去弄清楚 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )地点和时间。短语make sure of把…弄清楚；be sure to 一定；make sure查明，确定，其后接从句，不定式或of短语；be certain to一定会。
3．C such 用来修饰名词，故第三个空 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )用such a；so多用来修饰形容词或副词，但是当所修饰的名词前出现many/much/few/little等表示“多少”的词时，则用so修饰。此处第一空后出现了little，但little在这里意思是“小的”，故第一空用such。第二空much表示数量，故用so。
4．A 第一个空应用in表示“在……方面”；第二个空应用with，be patient with sb.表示“对某人有耐心”。【来源：21·世纪·教育·网】
5．B 句意：中国在二十世纪七十年代末开始对外开放，因此国家发生了很大的变化。as a result 因此，符合句意。
6．D 考查动词用法。avoid要求后面跟v. ing形式作宾语。
7．B 考查形容词词义辨析。句意：——你总 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )是精力充沛。你能告诉我秘密所在吗？——每天进行大量锻炼。energetic “精力充沛的”，符合句意。enthusiastic “热情的”；intelligent“聪明的”；serious“严肃的”，均不符合句意。【出处：21教育名师】
8．B so that和in order that引导状语从句；so as to不能用于句首，所以答案为in order not to。【版权所有：21教育】
9．A be strict with sb.in sth.在某方面对某人要求严格。
10．B 句意：观众们被他在台上的滑稽表演逗乐了。amuse作动词用时，意思是“使……笑”。amusing“有趣的，可笑的”。
11．C 考查admit的用法。句意：这个男孩承认在踢足球时打破了窗户。admit doing sth.承认做某事。故选C。
12．C 句意：坦白地说，如果这些货物能尽 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )快发送的话，我将不胜感激。appreciate，like，love，hate，dislike等后面常接it作形式宾语，然后再接if/wh 从句，作真正的宾语。
13．A 本题考查动词时态。在含有条件状语从句和时间状语从句的主从复合句中，主句用一般将来时，从句用一般现在时代替将来时。
14．D 考查连词。句意：你最好买一 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )部手机以便能与我们保持联系。此句中so that引导目的状语从句，表示“以便”。as a result“结果”； in case“以防万一”； as long as“只要”。
15．B progress是不可数名词，故前面不用a，也没有复数形式；中心词是名词的时候，感叹句用what引导。21·世纪*教育网
Ⅲ.1.A 在学校上学用in，be in Senior High school在上高中期间。
2．B 由第一段第一句可知，“我”的老师是Mrs Xu，因此是her。
3．A 由although知，此句表示的是转折关系。前面说老师已经四十岁了，因此本空填energetic，意为“有活力的”。
4．C 由第一句中的Mrs Xu was our English teacher可知，她和我们说话用英语，即in English。
5．A be afraid of(doing)sth.为固定短语，意为“害怕做某事”。
6．D be willing to do愿意做某事；will不作形容词；active活跃的；similar相似的。
7．D 因为“我”怕犯错误而不敢说英语，老师鼓励说没有一个人总是正确的，因此选correct。
8．C make progress取得进步，固定用法。另外，文章在讲述我和老师之间的故事用的是一般过去时，故选C。
9．B 由前一句知道，作者的英语已经取得进步了，并且有even，所以可得出作者可以和foreigners交谈了。
10．A 因为Mrs Xu是老师，所以是老师的微笑。
11．A 本文讲的是老师对学生的影响，又因后一句有such a student。
12．A pay attention to把注意力放在……上。
13．C 由designing different activities知道，学生们不会感到枯燥“bored”。
14．A be good at doing擅长做某事。
15．A 鼓励我们去展示自己。
16．A 展示自己然后反馈，表承接关系用then。
17．D 每个人都是自己学习的主宰，用master，而其他均不合题意。
18．D 用这种方式，用in this way。
19．A 除此以外，用besides。
20．A so that如此以至于，后接从句；其他三项均不可以接从句。
Ⅳ.1.D 主旨大意题。作者满怀信心 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )来到中国教书，结果学生们却说在她的课堂上没有学到东西。后来作者才了解到她的教育观念和学生们对教育的看法是不同的。作者通过自己的这段经历告诉我们：不同的国家有着不同的文化背景，从而导致了不同的教育观念。
2．B 细节理解题。由第一 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )段第二句话中的“I have no doubt about my ability to hold their attention and...”可知，作者毫不怀疑自己的能力，对自己满怀信心。21世纪教育网版权所有
3．A 推理判断题。根据下文出现的一系列情况来看，作者的困惑是由于文化差异造成的，故A项为最佳答案。2·1·c·n·j·y
4．D 细节理解题。根据文章第四段倒数第二句话可知，学生们认为老师的任务就是尽可能直接而又清晰地向学生提供准确的信息。
5．C 推理判断题。作者刚开始由于不了解中国的文化，在教学的过程中产生了一些困惑，后来才知道是由于文化不同造成的，因此C项正确。
Ⅴ.1.This problem is ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) so difficult that nobody can work it out. 2.We are such good students that the teacher likes us. 3.With much homework to do, I will have to stay up late tonight. 4.He'd drunk too much wine.

Dear editor，
There are two spec ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ial teachers who teach at Richardson Elementary School in North Delta. They are Madam Romans and Madam Tayob. These two teachers have gone above and beyond their teaching duties. They need to be praised.www.21-cn-jy.com
My daughter was luc ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ky enough to have been taught by these wonderful teachers for Grades 6 and 7. Their class was different from any other class. The teachers and children had such a special bond(关系) with one another.【来源：21·世纪·教育·网】
On the last day ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) of Grade 7 in 2007, I heard the song Time of Your Life by Green Day playing on the school speakers as I walked down the hallways to pick up my daughter. As I entered the classroom, all that I remember seeing was a classroom of children and two teachers crying. In fact, they were crying and hugging. It brought tears to my eyes. It was their last day together as most of the children were moving to different schools for high school. My daughter still tells me it was one of the saddest days of her life.【出处：21教育名师】
Now, five years lat ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )er, all of those students have graduated. This year is that Grade 7 class' graduating year! Knowing this year is the students' graduating year, these two special teachers invited this class to meet them for dinner the other day at Earls.
I always hear about s ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )pecial athletes or businesses that give back to the community. These are two great teachers who care so much. They've taken time out of their busy schedules to organize a dinner for a group of students whom they taught.
These kids wil ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )l never forget how special these two teachers are, and how much they care, and I think the community shouldn't, either.
Sincerely，
Lynda Mulder

Americans use many exp ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ressions about fish and fishing. For example, if something sounds fishy, it may not be true. Sometimes I feel like a fish out of water when I go to a party and everyone but me is doing the latest dance. When I ask my friend if she likes my new dress, I would like her to say something nice. In other words, I am fishing for a compliment(赞扬)．
Some expressions i ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nvolve(涉及) different kinds of fish. Information that is used to draw attention away from the real facts of a situation is called a red herring(青鱼 ). If you want to express a feeling of surprise, you might cry “holy mackerel”， although we do not know why a mackerel is holy.
Once I went to a co ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )unty fair and tried my luck with a game of chance. It was so easy; it was like shooting fish in a barrel. Then I went on the fastest, highest and most frightening ride: the roller coaster. At the end of the ride, I did not feel so well. A friend said I looked green around the gills.
I grew up in a small ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) town where everybody knew about my life. There were times when I thought I was living in a fishbowl. So I moved to Washington, where things were different. Now I take the train to work every day at rush hour when many other people travel to their jobs.
Sometimes the tra ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )in is so crowded that we are packed in like sardines. Sardines are tiny fish that lie close to each other in cans.
One man who works ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )in my office is a cold fish. He is unfriendly and does not like to join us at office parties. Another man in my office likes to drink at parties. In fact, you might say he drinks like a fish. We need to help him stop drinking.
41．If you think something sounds fishy, it means ________.
A．it is not important
B．you totally believe it
C．it sounds interesting
D．you find it hard to believe
42．If you are shock ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ed, to express your feeling, you can cry “________”．
A．holy herring B．holy mackerel
C．holy red herring D．holy red mackerel
43．If somethin ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )g is like shooting fish in a barrel, it is very________.
A．dangerous B．fast
C．easy D．exciting
44. What would you say if you are standing in a crowded place 21·cn·jy·com
A．I live in a fishbowl.
B．I'm like a sardine in a can.
C．I look green around the gills.
D．I feel like a fish out of water.

When I was a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )kid, I found a book about a little girl whose grandma had passed_away. Before falling asleep one night，I asked my grandmother to read it to me. When she finished reading, I looked into her light blue eyes.
“Grandma，” I asked, “will you ever die？”
“Unfortunately，” she said.
“Do all people have to die？” I asked.
“Yes，” she answered.
“Why？”I asked.
“How could you enjoy ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )every second of life if you knew you could live it forever You never know how much you love something until you lose it.” I gave her a kiss on the cheek, telling her that I would love her forever.2·1·c·n·j·y
The next night I sat o ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )n my parents' bed watching TV with them. The phone rang. My dad answered it. I saw the smile on his face disappear. Then he looked at my mom and me. He stared at us for a long time. Then he said, “Grandma is gone. She had a heart attack. It was too late when people found her.”
I then sat there still ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) for the next few minutes. I had never lost anyone before in my life. I didn't know what to do. All that ran through my head was that I was never going to see her again. At that moment, I loved my grandma more than I ever had before. I thought of everything she had done for me.
Life changes t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )hough we don't expect it to. I never knew I would remember forever what my grandma said that night. Of course I am upset when people die, but missing them makes me love them more every second. No one can live forever, so we should try to live every second to the fullest.
46．Which of the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )following words can replace the underlined part “passed away” in Paragraph 1
A．Moved. B．Died.
C．Asked. D．Written.
47．When the writer as ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ked why everyone would die, her grandmother tried to make her understand that ________.
A．nobody wants to live forever
B．people will work harder if they know they will die
C．knowing we will die makes us enjoy life more
D．only those who live for a short time will succeed
48．The news that th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e writer's father received over the phone was that the writer's grandma ________.
A．had died B．was dying
C．was missing D．had an accident
49．When hearing the sad news, what did the writer do
A．She cried out at once.
B．She ran to her grandma's at once.
C．She didn't move for a few minutes.
D．She asked her father what exactly happened.
50．By writing this passage, the writer wants us to ________.
A．know that everyone will die
B．live every second to the fullest
C．try our best to help those we love
D．spend every minute with those we love

On my first day o ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )f teaching，I found that I spent 85 percent of my energy disciplining and 15 percent teaching knowledge. Of course I had some wonderful，serious students who would do well wherever they were in life，but others worked hard to push themselves to the limit (限度)．At night I went home exhausted，often near tears. What gave me the idea I wanted to teach？And then there was Matthew.
After school Mat ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )thew would come into my classroom to dust erasers or empty the wastepaper basket.
“Why do you come in to visit me？” I asked him one night.
“Because at home no ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) one listens to me，” was his reply. Later I found out that there were eleven children in his family，with Matthew near the middle.
One time when he ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )came to see me，he said，“Miss Ausmus，the kids are saying that you and Mr D．like each other.”
“Matthew，Mr D．is a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) nice man and we both teach some of the same students. He is not my boyfriend，and it's not something the children should be talking about anyway.”
Another time，he sai ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d，“Will you wait for me so I can marry you when I grow up？”
“Sorry，Matth ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ew，but that won't work，” I answered in a gentle way.When my birthday arrived，his mother made me a cake. She delivered (递送) it after school，and as Matthew was carrying it up the school steps，he tripped (绊倒)，dropping the cake. I found him in tears. I told him that bringing me a cake was very，very special，whether I was able to eat it or not.
After my second y ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ear of teaching，I said “goodbye” to Matthew and his family.
Years passed ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) and in 1992，I went back to the little town to visit. Matthew's parents still lived in the same house. His mother greeted me warmly. “Janet，”she said，“Thanks for all the time you spent encouraging Matthew. You taught him to believe in himself. You are the reason he went to college.”
I had made a diff ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )erence in the life of a young boy. But I wonder...did Matthew ever know the difference he made in mine
51．How did the author feel at the beginning of her teaching

B．made efforts to challenge their classmates
C．needed to be encouraged to learn
D．did everything they could to do well
53．Why did Matthew visit the author after school
A．Because he had less communication at home.
B．Because he wondered if she liked Mr D.
C．Because he decided to marry her when he grew up.

C．He gave her the courage to continue teaching.
D．He got her to understand what was true love.
Ⅳ.阅读表达(共5小题；每小题3分，满分15分)
[1] Two pieces o ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )f foreign news caught people's attention. In the US, 18 year old Michael Sessions won the mayoral(市长的) election in his town, to become the youngest mayor in the US.A similar thing happened in Britain. Martin Halstead, a high school graduate at 19, set up his own airline company.
[2] Chinese t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )eens admire their skills in getting such important posts. But have you ever thought that you could have the same success
[3] Burdened wi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )th heavy school work, many high school students in China are told to lock themselves in their studies and forget about other things.
[4] But actually this is not wise.
[5] Everyone is differ ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ent and there is no need to follow the life paths of our ancestors(祖先). Sessions had dreamt of being a politician since he was a child. Halstead is crazy about airplanes and took every chance to learn about them.
[6] So why not thi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nk outside the box, as these boys did Consider your interests when planning your own path through life. Doing this can be more exciting and makes it easier to succeed. Interest is our best teacher.
[7] But drea ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ming is not enough. A good education is a stepping stone to a successful career. It helps broaden your horizons so you understand more about yourself and therefore perform better. That's the reason Sessions chose ________ while taking charge of his town.
[8] Success ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )still takes work. Without hard work, a dream is just like a cloud in the air that you can never reach.

Dear_Mary，
I_was_glad_to_recei ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ve_your_letter._I_would_like_to_tell_you_something_about_my_new_teachers.21教育名师原创作品
I'm so fortunate to ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) have two new teachers this semester. My new English teacher, Daniel, who is a handsome gentleman, impresses me most. Although he has just graduated from university, his wide knowledge and humorous language attract me so much that I'm always eager to have his class. Miss Wang is the maths teacher and she is helpful, patient and strict with us. She also has a good sense of humor, which makes her class very interesting. With these new teachers, I firmly believe that I can make rapid progress.
How_are_your_new ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )_school_and_your_teachers _Do_you_like_them _I'm_looking_forward_to_your_reply.
Yours，
Li_Hua
