The Amber Room
The history of art has produced few works as valuable as theUnit 1 │ Cultural relics
Amber Room. Famous throughout Europe as “the eighth wonder of the world”，its worked amber panels(琥珀色板)were sent in 1716 by Frederick William Ⅰ of Prussia as a gift to Peter the Great of Russia. As years went by, they quickly became a symbol of Russia's royal power.
For more than two hundred years the Amber Room remained in its Russian palace outside St Petersburg (Leningrad), but when the Nazi army attacked Russia and swept towards Leningrad in 1941, the panels were removed from the walls, packed into boxes, and disappeared from view, never to be seen again. Unit 1 │ Cultural relics Dozens of people have tried to find where the Amber Room has gone, and several of them have died for no reason. Many times groups have announced they were on the way to succeeding in locating the Amber Room only to see their efforts in vain. According to some people, the remains of the room may still be underground. However, nothing is found yet, though parts of the mosaics(镶嵌，镶嵌图案) appeared in the 1990s in Germany. Thus, the 50-year-old mystery of Amber Room is still alive.
Starting in 1979, and lasting for 24 years, a new Amber RoomUnit 1 │ Cultural relics
reconstruction effort began at Tsarskoye Selo. Using original drawings and old black-and-white photographs, every attempt was made to reproduce the original Amber Room. One big problem was the lack of skilled workers, since amber carving(雕刻)was considered a nearly lost art form. The financial difficulties were solved with $3.5 million from the German company E．ON AG. By 2003, the work of the Russian craft was mostly completed. The new room was offered by Russian President Vladimir Putin and former German Chancellor Gerhard Schr?der at the 300th anniversary of the city of St Petersburg.Unit 1 │ Cultural relics Task: Fill in the blanks according to the passage.

定语从句对先行词具有限制作用，使该词的含义更具体、更明确，这种定语从句被称为限制性定语从句，这类从句不能省掉，否则句意就不完整。如：
The boy (who/whom/that)I taught yesterday was very clever.
我昨天教的那个小男孩很聪明。
I was the only person in our class that/who was praised by the headmaster at the meeting.
我是我们班唯一一个在会上受到校长表扬的人。
I will show you to the supermarket where you can find everything you want.
我带你去一家超市，在那里你能找到你想要的一切东西。Period Three │ 语法归纳二、非限制性定语从句
定语从句有时与先行词的关系不是十分密切，只是作附加说明，不起限制作用，这种定语从句被称为非限制性定语从句，往往用逗号把这类从句与主句分开。如：
She heard a terrible noise，which brought her heart into mouth.
她听到一声巨响，这把她的心提到了嗓子眼。
This is our headmaster，who I think has something important to tell you.
这是我们的校长，我认为他有一些重要事情要告诉你。
Chaplin lived the last years of his life in Switzerland，where he was buried in 1977.
卓别林在瑞士度过了他的晚年，1977年他被安葬在那里。Period Three │语法归纳
三、限制性定语从句和非限制性定语从句的区别
● 形式和作用不同
限制性定语从句和主句之间不用逗号隔开；非限制性定语从句必须用逗号和主句隔开。限制性定语从句用来修饰和说明先行词，具有限制作用；非限制性定语从句一般跟先行词的关系并不十分密切，只是对先行词的补充说明，不起限制作用，可以省略，省略后主句的意思仍然完整。试比较：
1. Her sister who teaches us English will go abroad next year.
她教我们英语的姐姐明年将出国。(限制性定语从句，意思是她可能还有别的姐姐。)Period Three │语法归纳2. Her sister，who teaches us English，will go abroad next year.
她的姐姐教我们英语，明年将出国。(非限制性定语从句，对先行词her sister起到补充说明的作用，言外之意是她只有一个姐姐。)Period Three │语法归纳● 先行词不同
限制性定语从句的先行词只能是一个名词或代词，而非限制性定语从句的先行词可以是一个词，也可以是一句话。试比较：
1. This is the best novel that I have ever read.
这是我曾经看过的最好的小说。(先行词为novel)
2. The novel，which I read last night，is very interesting.
我昨天晚上看过的小说非常有意思。(先行词为novel)
3. The novel is very interesting，which makes me very glad.
这部小说很有意思，这让我很高兴。(先行词为“The novel is very interesting”)Period Three │语法归纳
● 翻译方式不同
限制性定语从句往往译在先行词之前，而非限制性定语从句往往译为一个并列的句子。如：
She is the nurse who looks after the children.
她就是照料这些孩子的阿姨。
This note was left by Xiao Wu, who was here a moment ago.
这个便条是小吴留下的，她刚才在这儿。
试比较：
He has a brother, who lives in Beijing. (有一个哥哥。)
He has a brother who lives in Beijing. (可能有几个哥哥，其中一个是住在北京的。)Period Three │语法归纳
四、as和which引导非限制性定语从句时的区别
1．as引导非限制性定语从句时，先行词一般为整个主句；而which引导非限制性定语从句时，先行词既可以是整个主句又可以是主句的一部分。
2．as引导的从句位置比较灵活，可位于先行词之前、之中和之后，而which引导的从句仅能位于先行词之后。
3．as引导从句时常译为“正如”，而which常译为“这；那”。常用句型有：as we all know，as is known to all，as everybody can see，as is expected等。如：Period Three │语法归纳
He did the experiment successfully，as had been expected.
正如期望的那样，他试验做得非常成功。
The result of the experiment was very good, which we hadn't expected.

班级辩论报告在文体上属于议论文，写作时要符合议论文的特点。
议论文的写作一般分为四部分：第一部分要开门见山，点明辩论的主题以及参与者；第二部分列举正方观点及其理由；第三部分列举反方观点及其理由；第四部分得出结论或自己的见解、观点。
写作时要对自己提出的观点给予充分的论据，可以列举事例，提供数据，也可以借助于常识或亲身经历。论证时要有严密的逻辑性，Period Four │单元话题写作要注意论点和论据之间的逻辑性以及不同论据之间的层次性。所有事实和理由应紧密地同结论衔接在一起。文章要以议论为主，恰当地使用叙述、说明、描述等手法。句子所用时态通常为一般现在时。Period Four │单元话题写作

Our children and grandchildren may not have a chance to visit many of the most famous places around the world. War, weather, age, traffic and pollution damage these famous places.①Looking after these places often costs more than one country can afford.
In the early 1970s, world governments decided that if they joined together, they would be able to preserve(保护) our history. If every country paid some money, they said，②it would be possible to look after important historic places. Also, if they discovered that a monument needed urgent(紧急的) help, 单元总结提升 │延伸拓展阅读 they would have money for repairs. For these reasons, countries around the world united to form the World Heritage Organization in 1972. Today, the organization helps to maintain(维护) and restore the most important places from our history.
However, one of the biggest problems for historic places is vandalism. People sometimes enter the sites and destroy or damage the buildings. At some sites, such as Stonehenge(巨石阵)in England, governments have built high fences to protect the site from vandals.单元总结提升 │延伸拓展阅读 ③There are many different ideas about how to solve the problem of vandalism. Some experts say that if guards patrolled(巡逻) the sites, vandals would not be able to get in. Some experts say that if they fixed more television cameras, they would not need so many guards. Other experts say that the best solution is education. If people learned to respect history, they would not destroy or damage it. They would also want to spend money looking after old places. For this reason, the World Heritage Organization helps to spread information about the value of historic sites.单元总结提升 │延伸拓展阅读 【典句赏析】
①Looking after these places often costs more than one country can afford.
句意：照看这些地方的费用通常不是一个国家能负担得起的。
赏析：“Looking after these places”为动名词作主语。又如：Washing hands before meals is a good habit.饭前洗手是一种好习惯。
②…it would be possible to look after important historic places.
句意：……保护这些重要的历史遗迹是有可能的。
赏析：It is possible to do sth 意为“做某事是有可能的”，it用作形式主语。又如：It is possible for me to finish the work in one hour.我在一个小时内完成这项工作是有可能的。单元总结提升 │延伸拓展阅读③There are many different ideas about how to solve the problem of vandalism.
句意：关于如何解决蓄意破坏的问题有很多不同的观点。
赏析：“how to solve the problem of vandalism”为“特殊疑问词＋to do”结构，可在句中充当主语、宾语或表语。又如：I don't know what to do.(＝ I don't know what I should do.)我不知道该怎么办。单元总结提升 │延伸拓展阅读Unit 1 Cultural relics

He summoned the best artists and architects from India, Turkey, Persia and Arabia and finally, the design was completed.It took more than twenty thousand men working over a period of 18 years to build the Taj Mahal, one of the most beautiful buildings in the world.
The building itself stands on a marble platform 29 metres square and 67 metres high.Towers rise from each of the four corners.The Taj itself soars another 61 metres into the air.It is an eight-sided building made of white marble.
The emperor planned to build an identical tomb of black marble for himself on the other side of the river connected by a silver bridge.However, his son put him into prison in the palace before he could finish, and for the rest of his life, he could only gaze across the river at the tomb of his beloved wife.

Some people will do just about anything to save money.And I am one of them.Take my family's last vacation.It was my six-year-old son's winter break from school, and we were heading home from Fort Lauderdale after a week long trip.The flight was overbooked, and Delta, the airline, offered us $400 per person in credits to give up our seats and leave the next day.I had meetings in New York, so I had to get back.But that didn't mean my husband and my son couldn't stay.I took off for home.
The next day, my husband and son were offered more credits to take an even later flight.Yes, I encouraged—okay, ordered—them to wait it out at the airport to “earn” more Delta dollars.Our total take：$1, 600.Not bad, huh?
Now some people may think I'm a bad mother and not such a great wife either.But as a big-time bargain hunter, I know the value of a dollar.And these days, a good deal is something few of us can afford to pass up.
I've made a living looking for the best deals and exposing(揭露) the worst tricks.I have been the consumer reporter of NBC's Today show for over a decade.I have written a couple of books including one titled Tricks of the Trade: A Consumer Survival Guide. And I really do what I believe in.
I tell you this because there is no shame in getting your money's worth.I'm also tight-fisted when it comes to shoes, clothes for my children, and expensive restaurants.But I wouldn't hesitate to spend on a good haircut.It keeps its shape longer, and it's the first thing people notice.And I will also spend on a classic piece of furniture.Quality lasts.

Li_Hua_and_Wang_Hai_are_two_students_of_Senior_Three.Both_of_them_work_hard_but_they_have_different_learning_methods.Li Hua listens to her teachers attentively, tries to catch everything that the teachers say in class and consults her teachers as often as possible if she has some problems.Because of this, she spends less time doing her homework, so it is certain that she can go to bed earlier and she always keeps energetic in the day.
However, Wang Hai has quite a different way of learning.He likes to sit up late at night doing his homework, so he often feels sleepy in class.As a result, he misses lots of key points and it usually takes him more time to finish his homework, which makes it difficult for him to concentrate on what he is doing.
In my opinion, Li Hua learns more effectively in class and has more free time to enjoy herself.So I prefer her learning method.

Ⅲ.阅读理解
First published in 2001, the book Life of Pi written by Canadian author Yann Martel won the Man Booker Prize for Fiction and the Asian/Pacific American Award for Literature.It is the story of a young boy named Pi who spends 227 days at sea with a small group of animals after disaster strikes their ship and is an account of his journey of survival and hardship.
Piscine Molitor “Pi” Patel, on whom Life of Pi is based, is a young boy living in Pondicherry, India, where his father owns a zoo.The story starts when Patel's family decide to move to Canada, along with their zoo animals for their new home.
However, because of the bad weather, the ship sinks.Pi along with an orangutan (猩猩), an injured zebra, a hyena (鬣狗) and a Bengal tiger named Richard Parker is the only survivor who takes shelter in a small lifeboat.Both the injured zebra and the orangutan are soon killed and eaten by the hyena.The tiger in turn kills and eats the hyena, leaving just the two of them alone on the boat now.
In an effort to avoid being eaten by Richard Parker, Pi acts himself as the head of the group and remains safe from harm.Since he does not want the tiger to die for fear of going mad by being alone on the boat, he fishes and feeds the two of them in order to stay alive.
The life of Pi then enters its third stage when their lifeboat washes up on the shores of Mexico and the tiger escapes into a nearby forest leaving Pi alone.After the Mexicans refuse to believe Pi's story, he changes his tale by replacing the animals with his mother, a cook and a sailor and asks the Mexicans which one they prefer.They prefer hearing the first story though they do not believe a word of it.
In my view, Life of Pi is a must read book for all those who love reading.

There was a gardener who looked after his garden with great care.To water his flowers，he used two buckets.One was a shiny and new bucket.The other was a very old and dilapidated one，which had seen many years of service，but was now past its best.
Every morning，the gardener would fill up the two buckets.Then he would carry them along the path，one on each side，to the flower beds.The new bucket was very proud of itself.It could carry a full bucket of water without a single drop spilled (溢出)．The old bucket felt very ashamed because of its holes：before it reached the flower beds，much water had leaked along the path.
Sometimes the new bucket would say，“See how capable I am！How good it is that the gardener has me to water the flowers every day！I don't know why he still bothers you.What a waste of space you are！”
And all that the old bucket could say was，“I know I'm not very useful，but I can only do my best.I'm happy that the gardener still finds a little bit of use in me，at least.”
One day，the gardener heard that kind of conversation.After watering the flowers as usual，he said，“You both have done your work very well.Now I am going to carry you back.I want you to look carefully along the path.”
Then the two buckets did so.All along the path，they noticed，on the side where the new bucket was carried，there was just bare(光秃秃的) earth；on the other side where the old bucket was carried，there was a joyous row of wild flowers，leading all the way to the garden.
1．What does the underlined word “dilapidated” probably mean?
A. Dirty. B. Dark. C．Worn out. D．Plain-looking.
2．What was the old bucket ashamed of?
A. His past. B．His aging. C. His manner. D．His leaking.
3．The new bucket made conversations with the old one mainly to________.
A. laugh at the old one
B. take pity on the old one
C. show off its beautiful looks

A university graduate described as a “respectable and intelligent” woman is seeking professional help after being convicted of (证明有……罪)shoplifting for the second time in six months.
Ana Luz, recently studying for her PhD, has been told she could end up behind bars unless she can control the desire to steal from shops.
Luz，who lives with her partner in Fitzwilliam Road，Cambridge，admitted stealing clothes worth ￡9.95 from John Lewis in Oxford Street，London，on March 9.
Phillip Lemoyne，prosecuting(起诉)，said Luz selected some clothes from a display and took them to the ladies' toilet in the store.When she came out again she was wearing one of the skirts she had selected，having taken off the anti-theft security alarms(防盗警报装置)．
She was stopped and caught after leaving the store without paying, Mr Lemoyne said.
He added that she was upset on her arrest and apologized for her actions.
Luz，28, was said to have been convicted of shoplifting by Cambridge judges last October，but Morag Duff, defending，said she had never been in trouble with the police before that.
“She is ashamed and embarrassed but doesn't really have any explanation why she did this，” Miss Duff said. “She didn't intend to steal when she went into the store.She_is_at_a_loss_to_explain_it. She is otherwise a very respectable and intelligent young lady.She went to her doctor and asked for advice because she wants to know if there is anything in particular that caused her to do this.”
Judge David Azan fined Luz ￡ 50 and warned , “You've got a criminal record.If you carry on like this，you will end up in prison，which will ruin your bright future you may have.”
Luz achieved a degree in design at university in her native Spain，went on to a famous university in Berlin, Germany for her master's degree and is now studying for a PhD at Cambridge University，UK.
5．What is Ana Luz's nationality?
A．American. B．British. C．Spanish. D．German.
6．What does the underlined sentence “She is at a loss to explain it.” mean?

Many years ago, when I was fresh out of school and working in Denver, I was driving to my parents' home in Missouri for Christmas. I stopped at a gas station about 50 miles from Oklahoma City, where I was planning to stop and visit a friend. While I was standing in line at the cash register I said hello to an elderly couple who were also paying for gas.
I took_off,_but had gone only a few miles when black smoke poured from the back of my car. I stopped and wondered what I should do. A car pulled up behind me. It was the couple I had spoken to at the gas station. They said they would take me to my friend's. We chatted on the way into the city, and when I got out of the car, the husband gave me his business card.
I wrote him and his wife a thank-you note for helping me. Soon afterward, I received a Christmas present from them. Their note that came with it said that helping me had made their holiday meaningful.
Years later, I drove to a meeting in a nearby town in the morning. In late afternoon I returned to my car and found that I'd left the lights on all day, and the battery was dead. Then I noticed that the Friendly Ford dealership—a shop selling cars—was right next door. I walked over and found two salesmen in the show room.
“Just how friendly is Friendly Ford？” I asked and explained my trouble. They quickly drove a pickup truck to my car and started it. They would accept no payment, so when I got home, I wrote them a note to say thanks. I received a letter back from one of the salesmen. No one had ever taken the time to write him and say thank you, and it meant a lot, he said.
“Thank you”—two powerful words. They're easy to say and mean so much.

Almost every machine with moving parts has wheels, yet no one knows exactly when the first wheel was invented or what it was used for. We do know, however, that they existed over 5，500 years ago in ancient Asia.
The oldest known transport wheel was discovered in 2002 in Slovenia. It is over 5，100 years old. Evidence suggests that wheels for transport didn't become popular for a while, though. It was probably due to that animals did a perfectly good job of carrying farming tools and humans around.
But it could also due to be a difficult situation. While wheels need to roll on smooth surfaces, roads with smooth surfaces weren't going to be constructed until there was plenty of demand for them. Eventually, road surfaces did become smoother, but this difficult situation appeared again a few centuries later. There had been no important changes in wheel and vehicle design before the arrival of modern road design.
In the mid-1700s, a Frenchman came up with a new design of road—a base layer(层) of large stones covered with a thin layer of smaller stones. A Scotsman improved on this design in the 1820s and a strong, lasting road surface became a reality. At around the same time, metal hubs(the central part of wheel)came into being, followed by the wheels that were invented in 1967, sixty years after the appearance of tarmacked roads(柏油路). As wheel design took off, vehicles got faster and faster.
13．What might explain why transport wheels didn't become popular for some time?
A. Few knew how to use transport wheels.
B. Humans carried farming tools just as well.
C. Animals were a good means of transport.
D. The existence of transport wheels was not known.
14．What do we know about road design from the passage?
A. It was easier than wheel design.
B. It improved after big changes in vehicle design.
C. It was promoted by fast-moving vehicles.
D．It provided conditions for wheel design to develop.
15．What is the passage mainly about?
A. The beginning of road design.
B. The development of transport wheels.
C. The history of public transport.
D. The invention of fast-moving vehicles.

参考答案
综合能力测评(一)
Ⅰ.第一节A
【文章大意】 本文是一则寓言故事。有一位园丁用一只新水桶和一只旧水桶给自己的花园浇水，新水桶非常傲慢，瞧不起旧水桶。园丁用事实向它们表明了任何事物都有自己的用途，存在的即是有用的。
1. C 词义猜测题。由第一段的“…which had seen many years of service, but was now past its best.”可知，这只旧水桶已被使用多年，超过了最佳使用期，即“破旧的，破烂的”，由第二段最后一句也可得到印证。故选C。
2. D 细节理解题。第二段最后一句提到，这只旧水桶感到羞愧是因为自身有漏洞，一路上都在漏水。
3. A 推理判断题。由第三段的“…‘See how capable I am！…What a waste of space you are！’”可推知A项正确。
4. D 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段的“…‘You both have done your work very well.’…”以及最后一段中的“…where the old bucket was carried, there was a joyous row of wild flowers…”推知，这只旧桶也在发挥着它自己的作用。A、C两项无依据，B项与文意不符。
B
【文章大意】 文章主要讲了一个西班牙籍的大学生涉嫌在超市偷东西这样一件事。如果再有一次这样的行为，她就会被送进监狱。
5．C 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Luz achieved a degree in design at university in her native Spain，went on to a famous university in Berlin, Germany for her master's degree and is now studying for a PhD at Cambridge University ，UK.”可知选C项。
6．B 推理判断题。根据文章第八段的“…‘but doesn't really have any explanation why she did this，’…”可推断出她不知道怎么解释她的偷盗行为。故选B项。
7．D 推理判断题。根据文章的五段的“She was stopped and caught after leaving the store without paying…”可知她拿了东西没付钱。故选D项。
8．C 推理判断题。根据文章的倒数第二段的“Judge David Azan fined Luz ￡ 50, and warned, ‘You've got a criminal record .If you carry on like this, you will end up in prison, which will ruin your bright future you may have.’”可知，再有一次这样的行为，Luz就会被送进监狱。故选C项。
C
【文章大意】 作者曾经两次因为车的原因接受过别人的帮助。一次是在加油站附近，由于车抛锚受一对夫妇帮助带他去他朋友那，一次是店员无报酬帮他修车。他对他们表达了感谢，虽然只是简单的谢谢，但是却包含了很多感情。
9．C 细节理解题。根据文中第一段的“I stopped at a gas station about 50 miles from Oklahoma City，where I was planning to stop and visit a friend.”可知，“我”停在离Oklahoma大约50英里的汽油站，计划拜访一个朋友。故选C项。
10．C 词义猜测题。结合这句话“I took off，but had gone only a few miles when black smoke poured from the back of my car.”可知，车开了仅仅几英里，从车的后面就冒出了黑烟。所以took off指“启动车离开”。故选C项。
11．A 细节理解题。根据第二段的“They said they would take me to my friend's.”和第三段两次提到helping me可知，那对夫妇给作者提供了帮助。故选A项。
12．A 细节理解题。作者通过两次受帮助的经历表达了自己的观点：虽然说“谢谢”很简单，但是却十分重要。故选A项。
D
【文章大意】 本文是一篇史地人文类的说明文，介绍了我们现在生活中常见的车轮的历史发展过程。
13．C 细节理解题。根据第二段的“It was probably due to that animals did a perfectly good job of…”可知答案。
14．D 细节理解题。依据文章第三段最后一句“There had been no important changes in wheel and vehicle design before the arrival of modern road design.”以及文章第四段的叙述可知，轮子之所以没有流行开来的另一个可能的原因之一就是道路的设计不适合轮子运行，故选D。
15．B 主旨大意题。本文叙述的是用于交通的轮子的发展过程，而非公共交通的发展史，所以C选项错误，故选B。
第二节 16～20 DBGEA
Ⅱ.【文章大意】 一位生活拮据的人撞了“我”的车，“我”最终没有向他索赔，并希望他也能善待别人。

Ⅴ.One possible version：
Last week we had a discussion about whether we still need Confucian thought in modern society. About 60% of the students in my class think it necessary to study Confucian thought. For one thing, more and more people in different countries are bursting to study it, showing that it is still treasured in the world. For another, Confucian thought is believed to have made great contributions to the peace of human beings.
But every coin has two sides. About 40% of the students in my class insist Confucian thought is outdated. In a way it limits the development of the world.
Different people have different opinions. I think Confucian thought still has some positive effects on our society.
