(2024湖南永州期末)
In an amusing atmosphere at a historical palace in the Sayeda Zeinab neighborhood of the Egyptian capital Cairo, a large audience of different ages interacted livelily during an Aragoz show, the traditional Egyptian hand puppet(木偶) performance. The three-day event was meant to shed light on Aragoz as a unique art performance, give people a chance to see the beauty of puppet shows, and save the art that faces the danger of extinction.
Aragoz is a classic form of Egyptian theater art using traditional hand puppetry. During the performances, puppeteers remain hidden inside a small portable(便携式的) stage while an assistant interacts with the puppets and the crowd. Aragoz takes its name from the main puppet, whose unique voice is created with a voice modifier(修改器). Performers and the audience interact throughout the show, which creates a comic and entertaining atmosphere, and practitioners must be skilled in controlling the puppets.
The art used to be presented by traveling performers, who moved from one folk celebration to another. However, as these performances began to decline(衰退), performers and their assistants settled permanently(永久地) in fixed places. The number of surviving practitioners has decreased, while many of those who once put on stories have now disappeared. Many people see the need of protecting the Aragoz show, explaining that it not only is an important traditional cultural heritage in the country, but also serves to entertain the public, especially the children.
“The audiences were enjoying our shows. Many of them only saw Aragoz on TV and in movies, while those who saw live Aragoz performances recalled childhood memories,” said Bahgat, a professor of theater at Helwan University. “We are now in the era of technology and direct communication has become limited, so I think that we have an opportunity to spread this art again because virtual social media could not make up for the human need to watch such live shows,” he stressed.
1.Why does the author refer to the three-day performance
A.To tell a story.　　　B.To introduce the topic.
C.To highlight an opinion.　　　D.To explain an argument.
2.What can we learn about the puppeteers
A.They create the puppet s unique voice.
B.They interact directly with the audience.
C.They perform without being observed by the audience.
D.They must be skilled in interacting throughout the show.
3.What made Aragoz performers settle down
A.The disappearance of many performers.
B.The decline in popularity of the performances.
C.The need to preserve the traditional cultural heritage.
D.An increase in the number of surviving practitioners.
4.What is Bahgat s attitude to the future of live Aragoz performances
A.Optimistic.　　　B.Negative.　　　C.Unconcerned.　　　D.Doubtful.

Public Speaking
It can be stressful to deliver a speech in front of people. What do you say How do you catch people s attention What do you do if you mess up 　1　 You can use the following basics about the art of public speaking to help you overcome these challenges and be a good speaker.
Point everything back to the central idea
Before you begin your speech, figure out your core message. 　2　 This makes it easier to decide what to say and this helps you make every other decision, from the structure to the specific stories and concrete images that you include.
　3　
To make your presentation memorable, you can try using “sticky stories” in your speeches—honest, vivid anecdotes(逸闻) with details that engage the senses of sight, sound, smell, taste and touch. People remember stories and images.
Practice in front of people
Practicing your speech can ease feelings of awkwardness and help you adjust your presentation. Ask a friend or a family member to listen to you as you practice. You can also take a voice memo with your phone and play it back to yourself. 　4　
Slow down and start again
If something unexpected happens—say you stumble(结巴) or lose your place—pause or slow down. Take a deep breath and go back to the beginning of a sentence or restate the word you stumbled over. And don t worry, people don t notice those pauses as much as you think they do. 　5　 The point is to set yourself up for success, not perfection.
A.Use vivid imagery and storytelling.
B.These problems may drive you mad.
C.Avoid big words and long sentences.
D.Even if someone does notice, that s OK, too.
E.Then make sure all the ideas in your speech point back to it.
F.There s also a chance to practice short speeches on important topics.
G.By doing so, you can get supportive feedback to improve your speech.

Part 2　Using language
基础过关练
Ⅰ.1.overcame　2.documentaries　3.transport/transportation
4.applauded/clapped
Ⅱ.1.extremely　考查副词。句意:局势已经变得极其紧张,双方之间随时都可能爆发战争。设空处修饰形容词 tense,应用副词,表示程度。
2.arrangements　考查名词。设空处被these修饰且作with的宾语,应用名词;由语境可知设空处表示“安排”,应用名词arrangement,且空前有these,故用复数形式。
3.appealing　考查形容词。句意:那位文学大师把这首诗讲给我们听后,我们都觉得唐诗很吸引人。此处使用了“find+宾语+宾补”结构,设空处作宾语补足语,表示“吸引人的”,因此用形容词appealing。
4.absorbed　考查形容词。句意:Catherine坐在沙发上,全神贯注地读着那本关于青春和梦想的书。be absorbed in 为固定搭配,意为“专心于,全神贯注于”。此处为形容词短语作状语。
5.to;for　考查介词。句意:我非常感谢我们的英语老师给了我演讲的机会。be grateful to sb. for doing sth.因做某事而感激某人。
6.definitely　考查副词。句意:我们不必活在过去,但毫无疑问,我们可以通过从过去的事中吸取教训,运用那些学到的教训去过更有意义的生活而做得更好。设空处修饰动词短语 do better,应用副词,表示“无疑,确定”,故填definitely。
7.rudeness　考查名词。句意:他的同事对他的无礼很不满意,没有作出回应。形容词性物主代词his修饰名词。rude的名词形式为rudeness,意为“无礼”。

Ⅰ.◎语篇解读　这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一种传统的木偶表演。
1.B　推理判断题。根据第一段可知题干中的“the three-day performance”指的是木偶表演,而文章介绍的就是木偶表演的相关情况,所以作者提到三天的演出是为了引入文章话题。故选B。
2.C　细节理解题。根据第二段中的“During the performances, puppeteers remain hidden inside a small portable stage while an assistant interacts with the puppets and the crowd.”可知,观众看不到木偶操纵者。故选C。
3.A　细节理解题。根据第三段中的“However, as these performances began to decline, performers and their assistants settled permanently in fixed places. The number of surviving practitioners has decreased...have now disappeared.”可知,许多表演者的消失让Aragoz的表演者定居下来。
4.A　推理判断题。根据最后一段中Bahgat的话“We are now...we have an opportunity to spread this art again because virtual social media could not make up for the human need to watch such live shows”可知,Bahgat认为虚拟社交媒体满足不了人们观看现场表演的需求,由此可推知,他对未来Aragoz现场表演的态度是乐观的。A.乐观的;B.消极的;C.不关心的;D.怀疑的。故选A。
【高频词汇】　1.atmosphere n.气氛,氛围　2.interact v.互动　3.entertaining adj.使人愉快的　entertain v.(使)娱乐　4.make up for弥补
长难句
原句　We are now in the era of technology and direct communication has become limited, so I think that we have an opportunity to spread this art again because virtual social media could not make up for the human need to watch such live shows.
分析　本句为并列复合句。so连接两个并列分句。so前的分句也为并列复合句,and连接两个并列分句。so后的分句为主从复合句,think后为that引导的宾语从句,其中“because virtual...live shows”为because引导的原因状语从句。
译文　我们现在处于科技时代,直接交流已经变得有限,所以我认为我们有机会再次传播这种艺术,因为虚拟社交媒体无法弥补人们观看这种现场表演的需求。
Ⅱ.◎语篇解读　这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了公众演讲的技巧来帮助读者克服演讲的困难,成为一名优秀的演讲者。
1.B　根据前文“It can be stressful to deliver a speech in front of people...if you mess up ”可知,前文提到了公众演讲的困难。根据后文“overcome these challenges”可知,空处与challenges有关,根据后文“You can use the following basics...to help you overcome these challenges and be a good speaker.”可知后文提到了克服这些挑战的方法。结合选项可知B项(这些问题可能会让你抓狂)承接上文提到的问题和困难,同时引出下文的解决办法,承上启下,符合语境,故选B。B项中的“These problems”指代上文列举的问题。
2.E　根据本段小标题“Point everything back to the central idea”和空前文“Before you begin your speech, figure out your core message.”可知,在开始演讲之前,弄清楚演讲的核心思想,演讲中的所有内容都要指向中心思想。E项“Then make sure all the ideas in your speech point back to it.”承接上文,指出让演讲中的所有观点都指向演讲的核心思想,符合语境,E项中的“it”指代前文中提到的“core message”。故选E。
3.A　本空是本段的小标题。根据本段内容可知,本段主要阐述要在演讲中使用有吸引力的故事,包括涉及各种感官的细节。A项(使用生动的形象描述和故事叙述)能够概括本段主旨,适合作为小标题。故选A。
4.G　根据前文“Ask a friend or a family member to listen to you as you practice. You can also take a voice memo with your phone and play it back to yourself.”可知,本段建议让别人看着自己练习演讲或是练习时给自己录音自己再听。 G项(这样做你可以得到支持性反馈,以此完善你的演讲)承接上文,符合语境,故选G。
5.D　本段讲的是自己演讲打磕巴时不要慌,暂停或是慢下来。根据前文“And don t worry, people don t notice those pauses as much as you think they do.”和后文“The point is to set yourself up for success, not perfection.”并结合选项可知,D项(即使有人确实注意到了你的停顿也没关系)承接上文提到的没人注意到你的停顿,同时引出下文提出的重要的是什么,符合语境,故选D。
【高频词汇】　1.deliver vt.发表　2.catch one s attention吸引某人的注意力　3.mess up弄糟,搞砸　4.concrete adj.具体的　5.slow down慢下来　6.take a deep breath深呼吸
长难句
原句　This makes it easier to decide what to say and this helps you make every other decision, from the structure to the specific stories and concrete images that you include.
分析　本句为并列复合句。句中第一个and连接两个并列分句。第一个分句“This makes it easier to decide what to say”为简单句,其中it为形式宾语,不定式短语“to decide what to say”为真正的宾语。第二个分句“this helps...that you include”为主从复合句,其中“that you include”为that引导的定语从句。
译文　这让你更容易决定要说什么,也能帮助你做出其他决定,从结构到你包括的具体的故事和具体的形象。
Ⅲ.◎语篇解读　本文是一篇记叙文。作者讲述了在一次合唱比赛中有人意外失误,作者没有去责怪那个犯错的人,而是和她一起练习,最后取得了成功。通过这件事作者告诉我们:当为了同一个目标奋斗时,我们不要去责备犯错的人,而是要去帮助他解决问题。
1.B　根据前文的内容“当主持人宣布我的合唱团获得世界合唱比赛第二名时,我简直不敢相信我听到的”可知,此处是指“我”们付出的所有努力(efforts)都是值得的。设空处与空后的made一起构成固定搭配。make a promise做出承诺;make an effort付出努力;make a request做出要求;make a difference有影响,起作用(difference一般不用复数)。故选B。
2.C　根据最后一段第一句“Never blame a person when he makes a mistake, but help him to solve the problem when you are struggling 　14　 the same goal.”可知,当你和他人为同一个目标而奋斗时,如果有人犯错,永远不要责怪他,而是要帮助他解决问题。这是通过这次难忘的经历“我”学到的道理。由此可知,此处是说作者学到了很多。A.考虑;B.忘记;C.学习;D.解释。故选C。
3.C　句意:当我们唱第三首歌时,我突然听到一个意想不到的声音……。根据后文“a girl in the alto got quick”可知其中一个女孩唱得节奏快了,这样在合唱时就会出现一种不一样的声音,由此推知此处指“歌唱声”。A.名字;B.呼喊;C.歌唱声;D.歌曲。故选C。
4.B　根据前文“The other students in the alto”和后文“were getting quicker and quicker”可知,唱中音的其他同学都被那个女孩带错了。drive...away使……离去,使……不愿久留;lead...away把……引走;give...out分发;turn...down调低,拒绝。故选B。
5.D　根据前文“Ms Li noticed it”可知,“我”们合唱团的指挥李老师注意到了节奏过快;根据后文“used her hand to keep time”可知李老师发现问题之后用手来保持节奏进行补救。根据语境可知合唱团的节奏乱了,情况紧急,再结合选项可知此处表示李老师立刻作出反应。A.同样,类似地;B.容易地;C.确切地;D.立刻,马上。故选D。
6.A　根据下一段的描述,特别是下一段第一句中的“the smile on Ms Li s face froze(李老师脸上的笑容凝固了)”可知,李老师的补救措施没能把大家带到正确的调上来,即李老师的做法失败了。A.失败;B.成功;C.到达;D.同意。故选A。
7.B　根据“some of our members turned and tried to find the person”可知,此处是指在唱完歌后成员们试图找出第一个唱错的人。A.忙碌的;B.错误的;C.温暖的;D.缓慢的。故选B。句意:唱完歌后,李老师脸上的笑容凝固了,我们中的一些成员转过身,试图找出第一个唱错的人。
8.C　根据第二段第一句“In the semi-final, we were supposed to sing four songs.”可知,作者的合唱团在半决赛中应该唱四首歌;根据此空前文可知,此时是刚唱完第三首歌,接下来还需要完成一首歌的演唱。结合本段最后一句“We sang the 　10　 song as usual.”可知,此处是指作者意识到他们唯一能做的是完成这次表演。A.停止,离开;B.改变;C.完成;D.参与。故选C。
9.A　根据设空处所在句中的“with a smile”“Ms Li became a 　9　 again”及“who seemed to have absolutely forgotten what we had done(她似乎已经完全忘记了我们所做的一切)”可知,此处是指李老师暂时忘却孩子们之前的失误,微笑着继续做之前的事。根据第二段中的“Our choir s conductor, Ms Li”可知李老师是作者所在的合唱团的指挥,由此可知此处指李老师又成了指挥。A.指挥;B.歌手;C.跳舞者,舞蹈演员;D.工人。故选A。
10.D　根据前文可知,在半决赛中作者所在的合唱团要唱四首歌,他们已经完成了三首,再结合下一段第一句中的“After the competition(比赛结束之后)”可知,此处指该场比赛中的“最后一首歌”。A.晚的,迟的;B.唯一的;C.第一(个)的;D.最后的。故选D。
11.A　根据“the girl who behaved poorly”可知,此处指“责怪那个表现不如意的女孩”。A.责怪;B.鼓励;C.给……打电话;D.问。故选A。
12.B　根据前文可知,作者意识到无论怎么责怪那个表现不如意的女孩都不会改变结果;根据后文可知作者找到那个女孩,鼓励她并跟她一起练习,这是作者在分析情况之后采取的措施。根据前后文的逻辑关系可推知空后文的内容是空前文所述情况的结果,因此设空处前后是因果关系。A.否则;B.因此;C.然而;D.此外。故选B。
13.C　根据“we got the medal”可推知,作者所在的合唱团表现得很好。A.坏的,质量差的;B.普通的,平常的;C.完美的;D.粗鲁的。四个选项中只有C项感彩符合语境,故选C。句意:在决赛中,我们获得了奖牌,因为我们表现得很完美。
14.C　根据语境可知,此处是作者通过这次表演经历学到的东西。句意:当你们在为同一个目标奋斗时,如果有人犯错,不要去责备他,而是要帮助他解决问题。A.在……之上;B.在……之后;C.朝着,趋向,接近;D.在……里边。故选C。
15.D　根据“success or failure, 　15　 or tears”可知,or前后的词词义相反,所以此处是指欢笑或泪水。A.错误;B.惊奇;C.悲伤;D.笑,笑声。故选D。句意:无论你将来会与别人一起经历什么,是成功还是失败,是欢笑还是泪水,那肯定都将成为你宝贵的财富。
【高频词汇】　1.worthwhile adj.值得的　2.unexpected adj.想不到的,出乎意料的　3.go blank(脑子里)突然一片空白　4.struggle v.奋斗,努力　5.precious adj.珍贵的　6.treasure n.财富,珍宝
