Ⅲ.阅读理解
Humor is a most effective, yet frequently neglected means of handling the difficult situations in our lives. It can be used for patching up differences, apologizing, saying“no”， criticizing, getting the other fellow to do what you want without losing his face. For some jobs, it's the only tool that can succeed. It is a way to discuss subjects so sensitively that a serious dialogue may start a quarrel. For example, many believe that comedians on television are doing more today for racial and religious tolerance than people in any other forum.
Humor is often the best way to keep a small misunderstanding from escalating into a big deal. Recently a neighbor of mine had a quarrel with his wife as she drove him to the airport. Airborne, he felt miserable, and he knew she did, too. Two hours after she returned home, she received a long distance phone call. “Person to person for Mrs. an aPologize，”intoned the operator.“That's spelled ‘P’as in...”. In a twinkling, the whole day changed from grim to lovely at both ends of the wire.
An English hostess with a quick wit was giving a formal dinner for eight distinguished guests whom she hoped to enlist in a major charity drive. Austerity(节俭)was a fashion in England at the time, and she had asked her children to serve the meal. She knew that anything could happen and it did, just as her son, with the studied concentration of a tightrope walker, brought in a large roast turkey. He successfully elbowed the swinging dining room door, but the backswing threw the bird onto the dining room floor.
The boy stood rooted; guests stared at their plates. Moving only her head the hostess smiled at her son，“No harm, Daniel，” she said.“Just pick him up and take him back to the kitchen”，she enunciated clearly so he would think about what she was saying, “and bring in the other one.”
A wink and a one liner instantly changed the dinner from a red faced embarrassment to a conspiracy of fun.
1．What is the main idea of the passage?
A．Humor is the key to success in our work and our lives.
B．Humor enables us to cope with difficult situations effectively.
C．Humor is the only best way to criticize someone without losing his face.
D．Humor makes fun of difficult situations.
答案：B　主旨大意题。从文章结构看，作者在首段中就提出了本文的中心论点，而其后的段落都是围绕中心论点加以说明。
2．Which of the following is NOT stated in the passage?
A．Comedians on TV are believed to have done a lot in making people more tolerant of racial and religious differences.
B．To make up differences, humor is a most acceptable as well as a most effective means.
C．People often turn to humorous ways when meeting with difficult situations because of its effectiveness.
D．Only by adopting the means of humor can one succeed in some jobs.
答案：C　推理判断题。选项A、D内容分别在第一段的第五句和第三句中，B项意思和第一段所讲的意思相同。
3．What caused the roast turkey to drop onto the floor?
A．The backward movement of the door.
B．The son's hasty behavior.
C．Someone happened to be at the door.
D．The bird raised by the family.
答案：A　细节理解题。由第三段的最后一句可知“他成功地用肘部推开了门，但是复位的门却将火鸡打到了地上”。故选A。
4．By saying“...and bring in the other one.”， the hostess meant that________.
A．the son had to cook another turkey for the guests
B．she already had made more than one turkey ready for the dinner
C．some other dish would be served instead of a turkey
D．the son could serve the same turkey after it was cleaned
答案：C　推理判断题。文中并未提及是否有第二只火鸡，但是这里含有幽默的意思，同时联系文章最后一段的叙述，可推知女主人的意思是让她的孩子把火鸡拿到厨房，用其他饭菜招待客人。
5．What do you think would probably be the result if the hostess got angry and scolded the son?
A．It would make the embarrassing situation worse.
B．The son would refuse to serve the guests any more.
C．The son would talk back and make the mother more angry.
D．The guests would leave before the dinner was over.
答案：A　推理判断题。由最后一段可推知。

Ⅰ.语法单项填空
1．Be quiet! Do you hear someone ________(shout) for something?
答案：shouting　考查非谓语动词形式。根据someone与shout的主动关系和Be quiet可判断此处表示动作正在进行，故用其-ing形式。
2．Sitting in the chair beside the window, I watched the leaves ________(swing) in the wind.
答案：swinging　考查非谓语动词形式。watch为感官动词，后接动词作宾语补足语时用现在分词表示“正在……”。swing摇摆。此处指树叶正在风中摇摆。

答案：delivering　考查非谓语动词。句意：——琼在哪儿？——我在回家的路上看见她正在挨家挨户地送报纸。find sb.doing sth.“发现某人正在做某事”，delivering在此作宾语补足语。
7．It seems that they provide us with an ________(encourage) situation, but in fact we are ________(face) with a lot of difficult problems.
答案：encouraging; faced　考查分词作定语的用法。句意：似乎他们为我们提供了鼓舞人心的形势，但实际上我们还面临着很多困难。encouraging令人鼓舞的，鼓舞人心的；encouraged感到鼓舞的；受鼓励的。face作动词时为及物动词，表面对，面临，face＝be faced with。第二空如要用facing，则后无需加with。
8．People seldom realize the voice needs looking after. Many people below the age of 65 are left ________(sound) much older than they are.
答案：sounding　考查非谓语动词。句意：人们很少意识到声音也需要保护，很多65岁以下的老人听起来要比实际年龄老。题干中的后半部分转换成主动语态后应为：...leave many people below the age of 65 sounding much older than they are。现在分词短语sounding much older than they are在句子中作主语补足语，sound和many people below the age of 65在逻辑关系上为主动关系。
9．With the car ________(break) down halfway on the road, we had to wait for help coming.
答案：breaking　考查非谓语动词。句意：由于汽车在半路上坏了，我们只好等待援助的到来。car与break之间是逻辑上的主谓关系，故用现在分同形式作宾语补足语。

答案：having struggled　考查非谓语动词。句意：简经过数月寻找一个旅游代理人的职位，最终得到了一份当女服务员的工作。此处强调动作的先后，且此处非谓语动词短语相当于一个非限制性定语从句，即：who had struggled for months to find a job as a travel agent。
11．The film was really ________(move). We were greatly ________(move) while seeing it.
答案：moving; moved　考查分词作表语。film与move之间是逻辑上的主动关系，故第一空用现在分词形式，表示“电影令人感动”。we和move之间是逻辑上的被动关系，故第二空用过去分词，表示“我们深深为之感动”。
12．—Who were those people with the bananas?
—A group ________(call) itself the League for Peace.
答案：calling　考查非谓语动词。句意：——拿香蕉的那些人是谁？——一组自称和平联盟的人。句中的a group和call之间是主动关系，故用现在分词作后置定语。

—Yes, it is.
答案：leading　leading to the village＝which leads to the village，v.-ing形式(现在分词)用作定语。
15．What surprised the man most was his not________(allow) to meet his daughter.
答案：being allowed　句意：最让那个男人吃惊的是他不被允许与女儿见面。allow的逻辑宾语是the man，故动名词用被动形式。

Ⅲ.阅读理解
Mr. Bean is an internationally recognized comedy character on TV and in films. He constantly gets into funny and absurd situations, which greatly amuses audiences regardless of their nationality or culture. The humour is always made clear through a series of simple and funny acts that rely purely on body language, which is universal.
One of my favorite shows is Mr. Bean in a fancy restaurant. After being seated at his table, Mr. Bean takes out a card, writes a few words on it, seals(密封) it in an envelope and places it on the table. After a moment, he looks back at the envelope but this time he looks surprised, as if he did not know it was there. He opens it to find a birthday card and delightedly puts it on the table for everyone to see.
When he looks at the menu, an astonished look swiftly appears on his face. He takes all the money out of his wallet, counts it and puts it in a plate. He then looks from the menu to the money with concern until he finds one thing that makes him smile. Then he orders a dish called “steak tartare”. When the dish arrives, he is shocked to discover that “steak tartare” is actually raw hamburger. He makes an attempt to eat it, but it is clear from the look on his face that he finds the taste truly disgusting. He cannot hide his feelings, except when the waiter asks if everything is all right. When this happens, he smiles and nods, showing that everything is fine. When the waiter is not looking, however, he was busy hiding the raw meat anywhere he can reach—the sugar bowl, the tiny flower vase, inside a small cake and under a plate. He becomes so desperate(绝望的)in the end that he even hides some inside the purse of a woman sitting near him and throws some down the trousers of the restaurant's violinist!
I like to watch Mr. Bean on TV, but I wouldn't like to meet someone like him in real life and I certainly wouldn't like to have dinner with him!

课件31张PPT。成才之路 · 英语路漫漫其修远兮 吾将上下而求索人教版 · 必修4(十二省区) A taste of English humour Unit 3Section Ⅱ　Learning about Language Unit 3动词-ing作表语，定语，宾语补足语
用所给词的适当形式填空，并总结其在句中所充当的成分。
①No one was ever bored watching him—his subtle acting made everything ________(entertain)．(　　　　)
②He walked around stiffly carrying a ________(walk)stick. (　　　　)
③The acting is so ______(convince) that it makes you believe that it is one of the best meals he has ever tasted！(　　　　)
答案：①entertaining；宾语补足语　②walking；定语
③convincing；表语一、基础点拨
动词-ing形式在句子中可以作主语、定语、表语、宾语补足语和状语。其基本形式以动词do为例：
名师点拨
(1)动词-ing分为动名词和现在分词两类。
(2)动名词兼有动词和名词的特征，可在句中充当主语、宾语、表语和定语。
(3)现在分词兼有动词、形容词和副词的特征，可在句中充当定语、表语、补语和状语。 (一)动词-ing作表语
1．作表语的动词-ing所体现的是名词的特性，用于对主语的内容进行解释说明，可表示抽象或习惯上的动作，且主语和表语可以换位。
*Her job is cleaning the building.她的工作是打扫楼房。
2．作表语的现在分词是形容词性的，表示主语的性质或特征，这时通常看作形容词，且主语与表语不可换位。
*Though the job is boring，he has to do it to make a living.
尽管这份工作无趣，为了谋生他也只好做。
(二)动词-ing作定语
1．动词-ing作定语表示名词的属性或事物的用途时，一般只能作前置定语。
*Now he is waiting for you in the waiting room.(表示用途)
现在他在候诊室里等着你。
2．动词-ing兼有动词、形容词和副词的特征时，可以作前置定语(具有动词、形容词的特征)，也可以作后置定语(兼有动词、形容词和副词的特征)，表示正在进行的动作或某种状态，单个动词-ing作定语时，常放在所修饰的名词之前；动词-ing短语作定语时，常放在所修饰的名词之后，相当于一个定语从句。
*The girl standing there(＝The girl who is standing there) is my classmate.站在那里的女孩是我的同学。 (三)动词-ing作补语
名师点拨
(1)动词-ing作宾语补足语常放在宾语后面，表示一个正在进行的主动性的动作，强调一个过程或一种状态。
(2)当主句转换为被动结构时，原来作宾语补足语的动词-ing形式便转换为主语补足语。
*The boss kept the workers working the whole night.(宾语补足语)那老板让工人整夜地工作。
→The workers were kept working the whole night.(主语补足语)1．位于感官动词后(see，hear，feel，smell，watch，find，notice等)。
*I felt somebody patting me on the shoulder.
我感到有人拍我的肩膀。
2．位于使役动词后(have，make，let，get，keep，set，catch等)。
*He got the clock going again.他让钟表又走了起来。
3．用于with复合结构中。
*With the light burning,_he felt asleep.
灯亮着，他睡着了。二、难点突破
1．作表语的动词-ing形式，许多是由能够表示人们某种感情或情绪的动词变化而来的，用来修饰物，常见的有：moving，interesting，encouraging，exciting，inspiring，boring，surprising，puzzling，amusing，astonishing，此类形容词意为：令人……的。
*The problem is puzzling,_which easily makes people puzzled.
这个问题是令人迷惑的，很容易让人迷惑不解。2．see，hear，feel，watch等动词之后用动词-ing和动词不定式作宾语补足语的区别。
(1)动词-ing作宾语补足语时，表示动作正在进行；而动词不定式作宾语补足语时，表示(或强调)动作从开始到结束的全过程。
*When we passed the classroom, we saw a student playing the piano.(动作在进行)
当我们经过教室时，我们看见一个学生在弹钢琴。
*We watched our teacher make an experiment during yesterday's class.(动作全过程)
在昨天的课上，我们观看老师做了一个实验。
(2)若用短暂性动词的某个形式作宾语补足语，其不定式短语表示一个动作，而其-ing则表示反复动作。
*We heard the door slam.(一次动作)
我们听见门“砰”的一声关上了。
*We heard the door slamming.(反复动作)
我们听见了“砰砰砰”的关门声。
Ⅰ.语法单项填空
1．The traffic rule says young children under the age of four and________(weigh) less than 40 pounds must be in a child safety seat.
答案：weighing　句意：交通规则规定不满四岁不到40磅的儿童必须坐儿童安全座位。此处为定语，与所修饰的名词children之间为主动关系，故用现在分词形式。weigh为不及物动词，意为“有……重量；称起来”。 2．Listen! Do you hear someone ________(call) for help?
答案：calling　句意：听！你听见有人在呼救吗？hear sb. do sth.听见某人干过某事；hear sb. doing sth.，听见某人正在干某事。
3．The director had her assistant________(pick) up some hot dogs for the meeting.
答案：pick　在have＋宾语＋宾补的句式中，若宾补为动词，可构成have sth. done; have sb. do sth.(此时have相当于make)；或者have sb. doing sth.(听任某人干某事)。4．(2012·四川改编)I looked up and noticed a snake ________(wind) its way up the tree to catch its breakfast.
答案：winding　本题考查非谓语动词。notice后跟复合结构，宾语是a snake，宾补是wind的形式，表示当时正在进行的动作，故用winding。句意：我抬起头来注意到一条蛇蜿蜒爬到树上去捕获它的早餐。
5．Mary is often heard________(practice) playing the piano in the next room in the evening.
答案：practising　考查动词的-ing形式作补语。句意：人们经常听到玛丽晚上练习钢琴。其主动结构为hear Mary practicing playing the piano。6．Climbing mountains was ______(tire), so we all felt ________(tire)．
答案：tiring; tired　tiring“令人疲倦的”；tired“感到疲倦的”。句意为“爬山很累人，所以我们都觉得累了”。
7．There were some boys ________(shout) near the window, so I couldn't fall asleep.
答案：shouting　“________ near the window”在此作后置定语修饰some boys, boys与shout之间构成主谓关系，而且表示动作正在进行，故用现在分词作定语。句意为“有几个孩子在窗户附近大声喊叫，因此我睡不着”。8．Everybody says she is a ________(promise) girl.
答案：promising　横线处为定语修饰girl。promising“有前途的”，作定语表主动。句意为“大家都说她是个有前途的女孩”。
9．—Did you see the boys yesterday afternoon?
—Yes. I saw them ________(climb) the fence when I passed.
答案：climbing　“________ the fence”在句中作宾语补足语，them指the boys, the boys与climb之间为主动关系，而且表示正在进行，故用现在分词作宾语补足语。句意：——你昨天下午看到这些男孩了吗？——是的，当我经过时看到他们在爬栅栏。
10．To learn English well, we should find opportunities to hear English ________(speak) as much as we can.
答案：spoken　“________”在题中作宾语补足语。English与speak之间为被动关系，故用过去分词作宾补。句意为“要想学好英语，我们应该尽可能多地找机会听别人说英语”。hear sth. done听到某事被做。
11．(2013·辽宁改编)Laura was away in Paris for over a week.When she got home, there was a pile of mail ________(wait) for her.
答案：waiting　句意：Laura离家去巴黎待了一周多。当她回家时，有一大堆邮件在等着她。mail和wait之间是主谓关系，故用-ing形式作后置定语。
12．(2013·山东改编)The room is empty except for a bookshelf ________(stand) in one corner.
答案：standing　考查非谓语动词。句意：除了有一个立在角落里的书架，这个房间是空的。整个句子是主系表结构，except for a bookshelf ________ in the corner属于介词短语作状语，所以空格处应是非谓语动词作定语，并且bookshelf与stand之间是主谓关系。13．(2012·辽宁改编)The old couple often take a walk after supper in the park with their pet dog ________(follow) them.
答案：following　考查with的复合结构。句意：这对老夫妇经常在晚饭后带着他们的宠物狗在公园里散步。在with的复合结构中，宾语their pet dog与宾语补足语之间为主动关系，故用following作宾语补足语。
14．The next thing he saw was smoke ________(rise) from behind the house.
答案：rising　句意：紧接着他看到房子的后面冒烟了。smoke与rise之间存在着逻辑上的主谓关系。rising作后置定语。
15．(2014·山东，6改编)There's a note pinned to the door ________(say) when the shop will open again.
答案：saying　考查非谓语动词。句意：门上贴着通知说，什么时候这个商店会再开业。此处a note与say之间是逻辑上主谓关系，故用现在分词作后置定语，表示主动。

I have heard having a good sense of humour often helps in breaking the ice. Also people remember you because of your humour. But I think I don't have a very good sense of humour. Could you suggest how to build on this?
——Radha Karnik
This is a great question that is unfortunately difficult to answer. I can only give you my views on this topic, which may or may not be correct. I know that my sense of humour developed over time.
When I was younger I was not funny at all; now I can easily make people laugh. At the same time, sometimes I say things that I think are very funny but others do not. Improving wit and humour, I believe, is an ongoing process.
Now, there are various forms of humour and everyone has their individual style. Overall, I believe being fluent in a language is very important for being witty or funny. The way we play around with words adds the “funny” tag to an otherwise normal sentence.
Also, seeing irony is very important. I think humour is often the link between two unrelated things.
In my experience, laughing frequently and appreciating other people's jokes and wit are very important. Within these, finding humour in everyday normal situations is the key.
I often notice what is going on around me and say funny things in my head and laugh to myself. That serves almost as practice for when I am in a group. I watch comedy shows and movies and I am sure that has some effect on helping me improve my sense of humour.
And last, having confidence that you are witty is important. There will always be someone wittier or funnier than you, which is fine. Just work on building your own style.
Remember, if you are trying to be funny and witty in order to break the ice at a business fun_ction, be careful.
In those situations, humour has to be mild and politically correct.
Yours，
Brad

One day a hostess planned to entertain a guest to dinner at her home. Unfortunately, she found the cheese running out when preparing an apple pie; as a result, she had to apologize to her guest for serving an apple pie without any cheese. The little boy of the family left the room quietly. Returning with a piece of cheese, he put it on the guest's plate. The mother was quite content with what he had done. Smiling, the guest tasted the cheese as if it were the most delicious food in the world and then said to the little boy, “You must have better eyes than your mother, child, but where did you find the cheese？” “In the rat-trap, sir，” whispered the boy.假设你是李华。你们学校上周六组织高一年级的学生看望了当地一家孤儿院(orphanage)的小朋友。作为校报的小记者，你在此次志愿活动结束后，要对此次活动进行报道。请你根据以下提示写一则简短的故事，描述一下你们这次活动的具体内容，并谈谈你们的亲身感受。(词数120个左右)

Last Saturday, our school organized all of the senior 1 students to visit the children at a local orphanage. We took many books that are popular with children, as well as many kinds of school supplies and toys, to the children. They were delighted to receive these gifts. We played some games together and gave wonderful performances as well. Before leaving the orphanage we took photos with them and gave them our contact details so we could keep in touch with one another at any time.
That day, each one of us had an enjoyable time. We gave the children our care and help; in return, they gave us their smiles and love. These voluntary activities made a deep impression on us.
