get into trouble were filling in/out made it to1. (教材P8)The Vikings were the first Europeans to reach America. 北欧海盗是第一批到达美洲的欧洲人。
[句法分析]
句中不定式短语to reach America作后置定语,修饰the first Europeans。当中心词是序数词或被序数词修饰时,常用不定式(短语)作后置定语。英语中常用不定式作后置定语的情况:
(1)被修饰词为序数词、形容词最高级或被序数词、形容词最高级修饰时;
(2)不定代词something,nothing,little等后常用不定式作定语;
(3)抽象名词time,way,reason,chance,ability,courage,opportunity,wish等后常用不定式作定语;
(4)被修饰词前有the only,the very,the next等词对其进行修饰时;
(5)表示将要发生的动作时(既有主动形式,也有被动形式);
(6)there be句型中,作主语的名词后可接不定式作定语。①I have no courage to try it again after failure.
失败后我没有勇气再去尝试一次。
②Get him something _______________.给他拿点东西吃。
③She is the only woman to have been elected to such a post.她是唯一一位当选该职位的女性。

大约到公元900年,北欧很多地方都有海盗居住。
[句法分析]
where the Vikings chose to live为关系副词where引导的定语从句,修饰先行词places。定语从句中缺少地点状语,故用关系副词where引导。①I’ll never forget the days when(during which) we worked together.
我将永远不会忘记我们一起工作的日子。
②This is the place ______________________I was born.
这是我的出生地。
③Is this the reason why (for which) he refused our offer?这就是他拒绝我们帮助他的理由吗?
where (in which) [温馨提示] 先行词虽然是时间或地点,但定语从句中不缺
状语,而是缺主语或宾语时,要用关系代词that或which引导定语从句。
3. (教材P8)Biarni was hoping to join his father who was with Eric,but he was blown off course and found himself in an unknown land,from where he eventually reached
Greenland. 比阿尼希望同他父亲会合,那时候他的父亲和埃里克在一起,但比阿尼发现自己被吹离了航线,发现自己在一个无名的地方,从那里他最终到达了格陵兰岛。

Ⅱ.阅读理解
Our world is getting smaller and smaller.Miss Yamada,whose plane could cover 800 kilometers an hour,flew around the world in less than fifty hours.The newest planes could go 600 miles(one mile equals 1.609 kilometers)an hour,and we are now developing planes that are even faster.
But it used to take a lot longer to go around the world.Magellan’s men were the first to make the trip.It took them more than two years to do so by ship.
Magellan was from Portugal,but he sailed for the king of Spain.On September 20,1519,he left Spain with five ships and 240 men.After passing the south tip of South America,they reached the Pacific Ocean,on which they sailed more than one year.Very often they could not see a piece of land for months and they suffered greatly from the lack of food and fresh water.Many of them died of hunger and diseases.They even had to live on sawdust(锯末).Finally in April 1521,Magellan got to the Philippine Islands,where he was killed.His men fled and continued their voyage across the Indian Ocean.It was with the greatest difficulty that they passed the Cape of Good Hope.By the time they returned to Spain on December 21,1521,seven out of every eight men had died.Magellan’s voyage proved that men could sail around the world and that our earth is but a huge ball.
1.Miss Yamada could fly around the world in less than fifty hours because________.
A.our world was getting smaller and smaller
B.her plane was the fastest at the time this passage was written
C.they had developed planes that could go more than 600 miles an hour
D.her plane was very fast
解析:选D。由“whose plane could cover 800 kilometers an hour”可知,Yamada的飞机因为飞得很快,所以能在短时间内环游世界一圈。
2.According to the passage,the newest plane at that time could go around the world in about________.
A.fifty hours B.thirty-five hours
C.forty-one hours D.thirty-eight hours
解析:选C。由第一段提到的两组数据可计算出最新的飞机环绕地球一圈所需的时间(设为X小时),算式如下:800×50=600×1.609×X,解得X约为41小时。
3.Which of the following shows correctly the route by which Magellan’s men sailed around the world?
解析:选D。麦哲伦船队航行的大致航线为:西班牙→南美洲南端→太平洋→菲律宾群岛→印度洋→非洲好望角→西班牙。D项所标航线符合事实。
4.Which of the following do you think is the best title for this passage?
A.Magellan’s Voyage
B.Going Around the World
C.Sailing Around the World
D.The World Is Round
解析:选A。第二段一开头提到“But it used to take a lot longer to go around the world.”,接着讲述了麦哲伦环球航行的路线及在航程中所经历的磨难。

【解题导语】 本文为一篇记叙文。作者讲述了自己2012年到佛罗里达奥兰多出席作者会期间受到热心人帮助的感人故事。
1.A.holiday B.ceremony
C.operation D.experiment
解析:选A。根据“an invitation to a writer’s conference”可排除C项operation“手术”和D项experiment“实验”。结合上句中“I had just recovered from a serious illness”以及接下来的“might be just what the doctor ordered”可知选A项。医生给刚刚康复病人的医嘱自然是“度假”,而不是“仪式”。最后一段中的holiday即为提示词。
2.A.kept B.went
C.dropped D.knocked
解析:选B。本句为部分倒装,将作状语的off前置了。正常的结构为:so I went off。go off(=leave off)出发;keep off远离,(使)不靠近;drop off落下,减少,(使)下车;knock off下班,完成,降低。根据上句中“I received an invitation to a writer’s conference in Orlando,Florida”可知,作者是“出发”去参加作者会。故选B项。
3.A.intended B.promised
C.managed D.deserved
解析:选C。intend意图,打算;promise答应,许诺;manage设法;deserve值得。根据“was rather tiring,but”可知选C项。manage to do sth.意为“虽然费尽周折但设法做成某事”。句意:到达阳光州(指佛罗里达州)相当疲劳,但我还是成功地搭乘出租车到达了我的住处并安顿了下来。
4.A.hospital B.company
C.university D.accommodation
解析:选D。根据上文,作者是应邀来出席作者会,自然settle in的不是company或者university,更不可能是hospital,而是accommodation(住处)。下文“At the end of the day,she ______to take me back to my accommodation.”中的accommodation也是提示。故选D项。
5.A.colleague B.passenger
C.suitcase D.taxi
解析:选D。外出自然是搭乘“出租车”,本句的another taxi是承接上句的a taxi。故选D项。如果选择其他选项,则another出现得太突然,因为上文没有提及这些人或物。句意:第二天上午,我坐另一辆出租车到购物中心买了一些纪念品。
6.A.Instead B.First
C.Later D.Once
解析:选C。instead“相反”,否定前者,肯定后者;first“首先”,表示顺序;later“之后,随后”,表示时间;once“一旦”,表示时间或条件。根据语境,作者是在购物中心买了一些纪念品之后去一家咖啡屋吃午餐,两件事情都做了,可排除A项。went to a café to have lunch不属于buy a few souvenirs,不存在使用first来表示顺序或列举的情况;once用作副词,意为“一次,从前”,讲不通;用作连词,则与but矛盾。故选C项。
7.A.classified B.occupied
C.decorated D.painted
解析:选B。句意:随后我来到一家咖啡屋吃午餐,但桌子全______。classify分类;occupy占用;decorate装饰;paint油漆。根据but(表转折关系)可推知,咖啡屋的桌子是“坐满”(occupied)了。故选B项。
8.A.share B.reserve
C.set D.possess
解析:选A。句意:这时,我听到一个友好的声音说:“你可以和我______一张桌子。”根据下段首句中的“sat down with the ______ lady and we had a happy lunch together”可知,作者是和对方“分享、共用”(share)一张桌子。故选A项。
9.A.old B.poor
C.innocent D.stubborn
解析:选A。根据本段第五句中“I’m retired”可知,这位女士是个退休人员,故选A项。其他选项均没有依据。句意:我怀着感激的心情跟这位上了年纪的(old)女士坐在一桌,我们一起快乐地用了午餐。
10.A.journey B.meal
C.speech D.interview
解析:选B。根据上文两次出现的lunch可知,他们是坐在同一张桌子上吃饭。此处使用meal指代lunch。句意:午餐接近吃完的时候,她问我将在奥兰多待多长时间。故选B项。
11.A.donated B.repaired
C.hired D.guided
解析:选C。句意:我已经告诉她我没有租用小汽车,也没有意识到搭出租车会是多么昂贵。作者来此地开会和旅游,出行自然需要“租用”(hired)小汽车。故选C项。
12.A.convenient B.worthwhile
C.unfortunate D.expensive
解析:选D。根据下文这位退休的老太太主动提出自己开车接送作者可见,搭乘出租车太“昂贵”(expensive)。故选D项。
13.A.inspire B.entertain
C.call D.drive
解析:选D。根据上文“My dear,don’t use any more taxis.”可知,这位退休的老太太提出自己开车接送作者。故选D项。
14.A.business B.argument
C.trouble D.challenge
解析:选C。put sb.to the trouble of doing sth.为固定结构,意为“给某人带去做某事的麻烦”。此处that trouble指上句提到的drive you wherever you wish。故选C项。
15.A.working B.staying
C.moving D.shopping
解析:选B。老太太提出自己开车接送作者,自然要问清楚其住处。故选B项。
16.A.appointed B.limited
C.favourite D.regular
解析:选A。老太太提出自己开车接送作者,自然会和作者约定第二天接送的时间和地点。at the appointed time在约定的时间。故选A项。句意:第二天早上,她在“约定的”(appointed)时间来到我住的公寓等我。
17.A.digest B.explore
C.perform D.calculate
解析:选B。digest消化,领悟;explore探索,探寻;perform表演,履行,表现;calculate计算,推算。根据语境,老太太把作者送到迪斯尼乐园后,先陪游了一会儿,然后离去,让作者独自游玩,傍晚时分再来接作者。旅游属于“探索”,即在旅游过程中去发现迪斯尼的一些奥秘,故选B项。
18.A.forgot B.refused
C.returned D.preferred

19.A.sent B.lent
C.offered D.owed
解析:选C。老太太开车接送作者,作者自然要付费,而不是“借给她钱”或“欠钱”,B、D两项均可排除。根据“but she refused to take any”可知,也不是sent,而是当时主动(offered)支付车费。故选C项。
20.A.confidence B.dignity
C.curiosity D.kindness
解析:选D。老太太帮助作者,这是kindness(善意),而不是confidence(信心)、dignity(尊严)或curiosity(好奇心)。故选D项。句意:我将决不会忘记这位好心的女士,她通过自己的善意让我在佛罗里达的短暂假期充满了美好的回忆。
课时作业1 (B卷)
Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
Last month my family,my husband and I visited the zoo in Tulsa,Oklahoma.I was afraid I just couldn’t hide my excitement as it had been five years since I had been to the zoo.I was especially excited about getting to see the penguin exhibit that had been completed since my last visit.I thought it would be just as magical as it was the last time.
The Tulsa Zoo is located on Mohawk Park,and covers 84 acres,making it the third largest zoo in the US.The zoo has several highlights,but I have to admit that I found myself rather disappointed.The maintenance is deeply lacking,and most of the exhibits,landscaping,etc.looked like it had not been updated or well kept.Unfortunately,their polar bear died a short time ago.The strangest attraction was the missing-in-action jaguar(美洲虎).We spent several minutes searching for the animal without any luck.In most cases the zoo was good about putting up a sign whether the animal was no longer there or was moved to a different location,but it was a different case with the jaguar and likewise the kangaroo.
Almost all of the hands-on equipment in the elephant encounter was broken and no longer working.Although the zoo did put up signs as an apology,it continued to add to the feeling that the zoo is approaching death.The one exhibit that did not fail to impress were the African Penguins.Their habitat was well built.The lion,bear,and tiger were also easy to watch.A favorite among the kids was clearly the monkeys who were very active and eager to put on a show.
The Tropical Rainforest did a very good job creating a special atmosphere.The cafe served very good food and had lovely indoor and outdoor areas for eating.They are currently re-designing the Sea Lion exhibit,so the Sea Lions were not available for viewing while we were there.All things considered,the Tulsa Zoo is still the best zoo in our area,but I would only award it three out of five stars.
【解题导语】 本文介绍了作者参观自己所在地区的一流动物园的经历及感受。

Boxing Day is on December 26th,the day after Christmas,and is celebrated in Great Britain and in most areas settled by the British except for the United States of America,including Canada,Australia,and New Zealand.
Despite(尽管)its name,Boxing Day has nothing to do with competition sports.While the exact origins of the holiday are unclear,it is likely that Boxing Day began in England during the Middle Ages.Some historians say the holiday developed because servants(仆人)were asked to work on Christmas Day,but took the following day off.As servants prepared to leave to visit their families,their employers(雇主)would present them with gift boxes.Another theory is that the Alms boxes in churches were opened and the money was given to the poor on December 26th.Still some believe that,centuries ago,on the day after Christmas,members of the merchant(商业)class would give boxes containing food and fruit,clothing,and money to businessmen and servants.The gifts were an expression of thankfulness,much like today when people receive bonuses(奖金)from their employers because of a well-done job.These gifts,given in boxes,gave the holiday its name,“Boxing Day”.
Traditionally,Boxing Day is a day when families get together.It is a day of watching sports games with family.In the past,hunting was one of the favorite activities on this day.People usually went hunting for wrens or foxes.Today,Boxing Day is spent with family and friends with lots of food and sharing of friendship and love.Government buildings and small businesses are closed but the malls are open.Shopping is a popular Boxing Day activity,and the malls are usually filled with bargains.Besides these activities,many businesses,organizations,and families try to keep the traditional spirit of Boxing Day alive by donating their time,services,and money to aid Food Banks,providing gifts for the poor,or helping an individual family that is in need.Boxing Day has mainly become an extension of the Christmas holiday,giving working families one more day as the happy time of a year.
【解题导语】 本文介绍了节礼日的由来。以及节礼日期间的活动。
5.On Boxing Day servants probably ________.
A.took part in competition sports
B.still had to work for employers
C.were allowed to visit their families
D.were given Alms boxes by employers
解析:选C。细节理解题。由第二段第三、四两句可知,仆人在圣诞节这一天要工作,而第二天(Boxing Day)可以休假去探望亲人。故C项正确。
6.Members of the merchant class gave gift boxes to businessmen and servants to ________.
A.show care and kindness to them
B.thank them for doing a good job
C.provide them with enough money
D.pass on the traditional love and spirit
解析:选B。细节理解题。由第二段倒数第二、三句可知,商业会员在节礼日送给商人和仆人礼物是为了感谢他们出色的工作。
7.What does the third paragraph mainly discuss?
A.The beginning of Boxing Day.
B.The hunting on Boxing Day.
C.The good spirit of Boxing Day.
D.The activities on Boxing Day.
解析:选D。段落大意题。第三段主要谈论的是在节礼日人们从事的种种活动。故D项符合文意。
8.Why is shopping popular on Boxing Day?
A.Because it is a kind of traditional activity.
B.Because only malls are open on that day.
C.Because things can be bought at a low price.
D.Because people buy things to donate to the poor.
解析:选C。细节理解题。由第三段第七句可知,节礼日那天购物商场出售廉价物。故C项正确。

A
In the old days,divers used to go down into the sea looking for ships that had sunk because they hoped to find gold and jewels.Now divers still search for valuable things in sunken ships,but they also try to bring to the surface the ships themselves,or parts of them.The value of different kinds of metals has increased greatly over the last twenty or thirty years and even though a ship has been under the sea for many years,it may be worth a great deal.
The “Andrea Doria” is a valuable ship lying on the seabed.It is an Italian passenger ship which sank in 1956 after a collision with a Swedish ship.The ship itself was worth at least $30,000,000 and in addition it was carrying over $4,800,000 and many other valuable things.There is one silver object which is worth over $1,200,000.But the ship is lying in deep water which is very dark and cold.As strong current also sweeps past the ship,so far divers have been unsuccessful.
1.The underlined word“current”in the second paragraph means________.

4.Divers have tried to bring up things from the“Andrea Doria”because________.
A.the water is not very deep
B.it is lying on the seabed

Respect your teachers
First of all, students should respect the teachers.They should pay attention in the classes.That means to salute him, to stand from his chair when the teacher enters the classroom etc..Attend any lesson attentively.In class of a certain subject or teacher you don’t like very much, if it’s total anarchy(混乱), how can we talk about respect?
Play by the rules
If your teacher wants you to use wide-lined paper—do it! If she tells you to sharpen your pencils only before class starts, listen to her.If she doesn’t accept late homework, do yours on time.Sometimes classroom rules seem strict or even silly, but most teachers know what’s necessary to make things run smoothly, what it takes to let the learning begin.And the better the learning environment, the smarter you’ll be!
Expect her/him to like you
Teachers are teachers because they like kids.Given the chance, most teachers want to be your friends too.Respect your teacher, but don’t be afraid of her/him.She/He wants you to have a great school year just as much as you want to have!
Put first things first
Friends are a fun part of school.But they’re not the most important part.When your teacher is teaching, give her/him your full attention.Even when it’s hard to do—recess will come soon enough, and that’s the time for playing with your friends.

课时作业2 (B卷)
Ⅰ.阅读理解
Once many years ago,I pulled a family out of a burning car somewhere in Wyoming.Last week I received a telephone call from a woman who could not stop crying as she told me that one of my stories had saved her son from committing suicide.In closing she called me a hero.
That got me thinking about what a hero is.Was I a hero because I pulled a family out of a burning car? If so,how could I be a hero just because I wrote a story that saved someone’s life?
Today I decided to look up the word “hero” in the dictionary to see exactly what it meant.It read “a person who does something brave”.As I read on,it also said “a person who is good and noble”.
That statement impressed me more than the part about being brave.So I thought about something very important.Say I was walking into the local Wal-Mart Store and I happened to open,and hold the door for someone as a courtesy.As they passed me by,I said,“How are you today? ”Most of the time that would be no big deal,but this time let’s say it was for someone who was deeply depressed and near the end of the rope.That may have very well been the only kindness or courtesy shown to them in a very long time.
Having been near “the end of my rope”,after my marriage of twenty years ended,I was in such a condition.I was within hours trying to get enough courage to end the pain and misery.When I returned home,someone had sent me a card in the mail which told me how much they would appreciate me as a friend.That wonderful card probably saved my life.That person,without even knowing it,saved a life and became a hero.
Gee,who would have ever thought that anyone can become a hero,and possibly save a life just by being kind and courteous to others? The best part of all is that becoming a hero is free to all who wish to wear such an honor.
【解题导语】 本文讲述了作者通过一些具体事件后对“英雄”二字的理解。
1.Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?
A.Why Should You Be A Hero?
B.What Exactly Is A Hero?
C.I Am A Hero
D.Everyone Is A Hero
解析:选B。标题归纳题。由第二段第一句“That got me thinking about what a hero is.”以及全篇均体现作者对于“英雄”概念的理解,可知选B。
2.From the first paragraph we know that ________.
A.the woman was just the one from the family I pulled out
B.one of my stories prevented the woman’s son from ending his life
C.the woman couldn’t help crying because I had saved her life
D.the writer was called a hero who had saved a family from an accident
解析:选B。细节理解题。妇女因为“我”“救了”她的儿子而向“我”道谢并称“我”为英雄。
3.The underlined word “courtesy” in Paragraph 4 means the behavior that is ________.
A.polite and respectful
B.brave and fearless
C.smart and considerate
D.cute and kind
解析:选A。词义猜测题。主动为别的顾客开门体现了一种很优雅的尊重,因此选A项。这是作者对于“英雄”行为的具体理解。
4.After the writer got divorced,________.
A.he devoted all his life to helping the poor
B.he led a very happy life
C.he led an extremely unhappy and uncomfortable life
D.he found much pleasure in supporting the homeless
解析:选C。细节理解题。由短文的第五段可知,作者结束了二十年的婚姻生活后,几乎处于崩溃的边缘。

Ⅱ.阅读理解
A
In the old days,divers used to go down into the sea looking for ships that had sunk because they hoped to find gold and jewels.Now divers still search for valuable things in sunken ships,but they also try to bring to the surface the ships themselves,or parts of them.The value of different kinds of metals has increased greatly over the last twenty or thirty years and even though a ship has been under the sea for many years,it may be worth a great deal.
The “Andrea Doria” is a valuable ship lying on the seabed.It is an Italian passenger ship which sank in 1956 after a collision with a Swedish ship.The ship itself was worth at least $30,000,000 and in addition it was carrying over $4,800,000 and many other valuable things.There is one silver object which is worth over $1,200,000.But the ship is lying in deep water which is very dark and cold.As strong current also sweeps past the ship,so far divers have been unsuccessful.
1.The underlined word“current”in the second paragraph means________.
A.lots of money B.air
C.sea D.stream of water
解析:选D。词义猜测题。船只沉没海底,自然是强烈的“水流”流经船只,故选D项。

4.Divers have tried to bring up things from the“Andrea Doria”because________.
A.the water is not very deep
B.it is lying on the seabed
C.it sank in a collision
D.the ship and the things in it are very valuable

Respect your teachers
First of all, students should respect the teachers.They should pay attention in the classes.That means to salute him, to stand from his chair when the teacher enters the classroom etc..Attend any lesson attentively.In class of a certain subject or teacher you don’t like very much, if it’s total anarchy(混乱), how can we talk about respect?
Play by the rules
If your teacher wants you to use wide-lined paper—do it! If she tells you to sharpen your pencils only before class starts, listen to her.If she doesn’t accept late homework, do yours on time.Sometimes classroom rules seem strict or even silly, but most teachers know what’s necessary to make things run smoothly, what it takes to let the learning begin.And the better the learning environment, the smarter you’ll be!
Expect her/him to like you
Teachers are teachers because they like kids.Given the chance, most teachers want to be your friends too.Respect your teacher, but don’t be afraid of her/him.She/He wants you to have a great school year just as much as you want to have!
Put first things first
Friends are a fun part of school.But they’re not the most important part.When your teacher is teaching, give her/him your full attention.Even when it’s hard to do—recess will come soon enough, and that’s the time for playing with your friends.

课时作业2 (B卷)
Ⅰ.阅读理解
Once many years ago,I pulled a family out of a burning car somewhere in Wyoming.Last week I received a telephone call from a woman who could not stop crying as she told me that one of my stories had saved her son from committing suicide.In closing she called me a hero.
That got me thinking about what a hero is.Was I a hero because I pulled a family out of a burning car? If so,how could I be a hero just because I wrote a story that saved someone’s life?
Today I decided to look up the word “hero” in the dictionary to see exactly what it meant.It read “a person who does something brave”.As I read on,it also said “a person who is good and noble”.
That statement impressed me more than the part about being brave.So I thought about something very important.Say I was walking into the local Wal-Mart Store and I happened to open,and hold the door for someone as a courtesy.As they passed me by,I said,“How are you today? ”Most of the time that would be no big deal,but this time let’s say it was for someone who was deeply depressed and near the end of the rope.That may have very well been the only kindness or courtesy shown to them in a very long time.
Having been near “the end of my rope”,after my marriage of twenty years ended,I was in such a condition.I was within hours trying to get enough courage to end the pain and misery.When I returned home,someone had sent me a card in the mail which told me how much they would appreciate me as a friend.That wonderful card probably saved my life.That person,without even knowing it,saved a life and became a hero.
Gee,who would have ever thought that anyone can become a hero,and possibly save a life just by being kind and courteous to others? The best part of all is that becoming a hero is free to all who wish to wear such an honor.
【解题导语】 本文讲述了作者通过一些具体事件后对“英雄”二字的理解。
1.Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?
A.Why Should You Be A Hero?
B.What Exactly Is A Hero?
C.I Am A Hero
D.Everyone Is A Hero
解析:选B。标题归纳题。由第二段第一句“That got me thinking about what a hero is.”以及全篇均体现作者对于“英雄”概念的理解,可知选B。
2.From the first paragraph we know that ________.
A.the woman was just the one from the family I pulled out
B.one of my stories prevented the woman’s son from ending his life
C.the woman couldn’t help crying because I had saved her life
D.the writer was called a hero who had saved a family from an accident
解析:选B。细节理解题。妇女因为“我”“救了”她的儿子而向“我”道谢并称“我”为英雄。
3.The underlined word “courtesy” in Paragraph 4 means the behavior that is ________.
A.polite and respectful
B.brave and fearless
C.smart and considerate
D.cute and kind
解析:选A。词义猜测题。主动为别的顾客开门体现了一种很优雅的尊重,因此选A项。这是作者对于“英雄”行为的具体理解。
4.After the writer got divorced,________.
A.he devoted all his life to helping the poor
B.he led a very happy life
C.he led an extremely unhappy and uncomfortable life
D.he found much pleasure in supporting the homeless
解析:选C。细节理解题。由短文的第五段可知,作者结束了二十年的婚姻生活后,几乎处于崩溃的边缘。

(4)“make+宾语+v.-ed形式(过去分词作宾补)”这个结构指宾语接受后面的那个动作,表示被动的意思,意为“使(某人/某事)被……”。
(5)“make+宾语+v.-ing形式(现在分词作宾补)”这一结构表示的意思是“使(某人/某事)一直在……”。

Far from the land of Antarctica,a huge shelf of ice meets the ocean.At the underside of the shelf there lives a small fish,the Antarctic cod.
For forty years scientists have been curious about that fish.How does it live where most fish would freeze to death?It must have some secret.The Antarctic is not a comfortable place to work and research has been slowed.Now it seems we have an answer.
Research was begun by cutting holes in the ice and catching the fish.Scientists studied the fish’s blood and measured its freezing point.
The fish were taken from seawater that had a temperature of -1.88 ℃ and many tiny pieces of ice floating in it.The blood of the fish did not begin to freeze until its temperature was lowered to -2.05 ℃.That small difference is enough for the fish to live at the freezing temperature of the ice-salt mixture.
The scientists’next research job was clear:Find out what in the fish’s blood kept it from freezing.Their search led to some really strange things made up of a protein(蛋白质)never before seen in the blood of a fish.When it was removed,the blood froze at seawater temperature.When it was put back,the blood again had its anti-freeze quality and a lowered freezing point.
Study showed that it is an unusual kind of protein.It has many small sugar molecules(分子)held in special positions within each big protein molecule.Because of its sugar content,it is called a glycoprotein.So it has come to be called the anti-freeze fish glycoprotein or AFGP.
【解题导语】 本文主要介绍了一种生活在南极海水中的鱼。
1.What is the text mainly about?
A.The terrible conditions in the Antarctic.
B.A special fish living in freezing waters.
C.The ice shelf around Antarctica.

2.Why can the Antarctic cod live at the freezing temperature?
A.The seawater has a temperature of -1.88 ℃.
B.It loves to live in the ice-salt mixture.
C.A special protein keeps it from freezing.

A.A type of ice-salt mixture.
B.A newly found protein.
C.Fish blood.

When we were called to the next talk,he put down his cup and I __10__ there was not a trace of coffee in it.“My doctor __11__ me to stop drinking coffee,”he explained.“So I have always used a(n) __12__ cup.”I decided to try his __13__ in my class.
I took a cup of coffee with me to my next class.It helped.My pauses,as I __14__ the coffee,not only gave my students __15__ to think about what I had said,but gave me time to think about what I was going to say next.I began to use my __16__ to look around the room to see how my students were reacting to what I had just said.When I saw their __17__ wander,I tried to bring them back.When I saw them puzzled over some concept that I thought I had __18__,I gave another example.My __19__ became less organized and less brilliant,but my students seemed to __20__ me better.
【解题导语】 这是一篇记叙文。作者踏上大学的讲台之前向老教授学习教学方法,其中一位数学教授的教具是一杯咖啡,这给作者留下了深刻的印象,在以后的教学生涯中,一杯咖啡令作者回味无穷。
1.A.wasted B.cost

2.A.manage B.copy
C.teach D.consider
解析:选C。逻辑推理题。根据“learning what to teach”可知此处是说没有学怎样教(teach)。
3.A.put up B.build up
C.take up D.make up
解析:选D。逻辑推理题。make up for“弥补,补偿”。根据前文所述可知,此处是说学校想利用一个周末来弥补(从有经验的教授身上学习怎么教)。
4.A.experiences B.plans
C.presentations D.designs
解析:选C。前后照应题。句意: 同事们就他们所使用的教具做了精心准备的演讲。我很欣赏他们的介绍,但他们讲的我都没有记住。前一句中的presented有暗示。

7.A.following B.grasping
C.seizing D.imitating
解析:选A。逻辑推理题。根据“I talk too much and too fast in the classroom.”可知,由于讲得多、讲得快,学生有时可能跟不上(following)。
8.A.everything B.something
C.nothing D.anything
解析:选B。词语辨析题。句意: 当我说到某些(something)想让学生思考的东西时。

11.A.suggested B.protected
C.allowed D.advised
解析:选D。习语搭配题。句意: 医生建议我停止喝咖啡。并没有suggest sb.to do sth.这种结构。故用advised。

15.A.space B.time
C.room D.schedule
解析:选B。逻辑推理题。根据后文“but gave me time to think about what I was going to say next”可知作者喝咖啡的时候不仅给了学生思考的时间,也为自己思考接下来说什么留足了时间。
16.A.chances B.pauses
C.situations D.conditions
解析:选B。词汇复现题。根据“My pauses,as I ______ the coffee”可知作者利用暂停的空闲时间看学生的反应。pause“中止; 暂停”。

C.energy D.devotion
解析:选A。逻辑推理题。根据“I tried to bring them back.”可知此处应表示“当我看见他们的注意力(attention)不集中时”。

课时作业3 (B卷)
Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
The influence of America is increasing in my country.Spanish people drink Coca Cola, wear blue jeans, watch Hollywood movies, listen to American music, and eat fast food, and they do these things every day.
I think that American movies are a good way to spread American culture because people are often influenced by what they see in the movies.Most of the programs and documentaries (纪录片) we watch on TV are from America, and most of the movies we go to see are made in Hollywood.
In the last few years, the government has tried to protect the Spanish movies.Now, in our cinemas, at least twenty percent of the movies which are shown must be from Spain or from other countries in Europe.
American culture is a part of Spanish life now.It’s certain that many things from America are as much a part of people’s lives as Spanish things.For example, Coca Cola is as familiar to everybody as any typical Spanish product.I’ve known about Coca Cola for my whole life.
However, it’s different with Western fast food.For example, I don’t think McDonald’s is as successful in Spain as it is in other countries.In my opinion, one of the reasons may be the lifestyle of the Spanish people.The Spanish people normally eat at home.
On the other hand, maybe McDonald’s hamburgers will eventually replace the famous Spanish tapas.It’s true that in every city in Spain you can find a McDonald’s, and it is more popular among the Spanish children than among the adults.In any case, it’s obvious that American culture is becoming more and more a part of our lives every day.
【解题导语】 本文主要介绍了美国文化对西班牙的影响。
1.From the first paragraph we can know that ________.
A.the influence of America on Spain can be found everywhere
B.most Spanish people don’t like to listen to their own music
C.fast food spreads from Spain to the United States
D.some Spanish actors go to America to improve their acting skills
解析:选A。推理判断题。根据第一段叙述可知美国文化对西班牙的影响涉及到生活的各个方面,无处不在。
2.What plays an important part in the spreading of American culture in Spain?
A.American novels.
B.Hollywood movies.
C.McDonald’s.
D.American music.
解析:选B。推理判断题。根据第二段I think that American movies are a good way to spread American culture because people are often influenced by what they see in the movies.一句可知选B。
3.Why did the government set some rules for the films shown in Spain?
A.To protect foreign culture in Spain.
B.To earn more money from Spanish films.
C.To limit the number of foreign movies.
D.To unite the European Community.
解析:选C。推理判断题。根据第三段叙述可知主要是限制国外电影的数量。
4.What do you think Spanish tapas might be?
A.The name of a drink.
B.The name of a restaurant.
C.A clothing brand.
D.A certain kind of food.
解析:选D。推理判断题。根据最后一段On the other hand, maybe McDonald’s hamburgers will eventually replace the famous Spanish tapas.一句提到被汉堡代替,可知应该是一种食物。
B
After the examination,the doctor told my parents my sight would get worse and that I would lose my sight finally.On the way home from hospital,no one said a word.One day,would I only imagine the scenery beyond the glass rather than see it?
That September,I entered middle school.Most nights I had homework that included an armful of books to read.To keep up with other children,I took great trouble to finish the task.With my nose a couple of inches from the page,I was tired easily.What’s worse,after I had read several pages on my own,the words slipped off the page into inky(漆黑的)pools.
However,then I did not have audio books and electronic devices like kids do now.Instead,Mom volunteered to read out loud.Mom worked part-time,cleaned the house,cooked and spent time with grandma.In spite of being so busy,she showed up in my room like clockwork.She put on her reading glasses.Mom always thought those glasses made her look old.To me,she looked like a teacher.
In my room,Mom’s voice competed with the ticking of the clock.Being forced to focus on listening,I found a way to keep my marks up and compete with the other kids.When the teacher asked a question,I raised my hand with confidence.Teachers praised me for having a good memory.Reading removed my fear for my failing sight;reading also made me curious about other people’s challenges and how they managed.Though I could not use my eyes to fix on each passage,my mind lit up with every new book.
True to what the doctor said,the worst came,but thanks to Mom,my sense of hearing now allows me to “see”.This was the most precious(珍贵的)gift from a mother to her child.
【解题导语】 作者视力急剧下降,最终失明了。但是母亲读书给作者听,虽然作者不能用眼睛看,但是他的母亲、他的听觉在帮助作者“看”。
5.Why did the author and his parents keep silent on their way back home from hospital?
A.They all wanted to have a good rest.
B.The author didn’t do well in the exam.
C.What the doctor said made them worried.
D.They focused on the scenery along the road.
解析:选C。推理判断题。根据文章第一段的After the examination,the doctor told my parents my sight would get worse and that I would lose my sight finally.可知医生告诉作者的父母作者的视力会更糟糕,最终会失明。由于大家心情沉重故沉默不语。故选C。
6.How did the author manage to get high marks?
A.By being confident.
B.By listening carefully.
C.By getting help from his classmates.
D.By reading as many books as possible.
解析:选B。细节理解题。根据第三段的Instead,Mom volunteered to read out loud.可知作者的母亲读书给作者听,作者主要靠听来学习。

A.the author’s sight recovered finally
B.reading made the author more sensitive
C.the author’s mother didn’t work to look after him
D.reading made the author not worry about his sight
解析:选D。推理判断题。根据文章最后一段可知作者最终失明了,但是多亏作者的母亲,作者的听觉能帮助作者“看”。故选D。
8.Which of the following could be the best title of the text?
A.My Eyesight Trouble
B.An Unforgettable Experience
C.With Ears Wide Open
D.About Mother’s Love
解析: 选C。标题归纳题。本文主要介绍了作者的视力出现了问题,母亲读书给作者听,作者的听力帮助作者“看”。故选C。

2.Why can the Antarctic cod live at the freezing temperature?
A.The seawater has a temperature of -1.88 ℃.
B.It loves to live in the ice-salt mixture.
C.A special protein keeps it from freezing.
D.Its blood has a temperature lower than -2.05 ℃.
解析:选C。细节理解题。根据文中第五段的说明可以知道:正是这种特殊的蛋白质使得这种鱼在南极海水中生活而不至于被冰冻。
3.What does the underlined word“it”in Paragraph 5 refer to?
A.A type of ice-salt mixture.
B.A newly found protein.
C.Fish blood.
D.Sugar molecule.
解析:选B。根据文中的叙述可以判断出该物质就是帮助这种鱼生活在南极海水中的神奇的蛋白质。
4.What does“glyco-”in the underlined word“glycoprotein”in the last paragraph mean?
A.Sugar. B.Ice.
C.Blood. D.Molecule.
解析:选A。词义猜测题。根据“Because of its sugar content,it is called a glycoprotein.”这句话可以推断出前缀“glyco-”应该和sugar有关。

2.A.manage B.copy
C.teach D.consider
解析:选C。逻辑推理题。根据“learning what to teach”可知此处是说没有学怎样教(teach)。
3.A.put up B.build up
C.take up D.make up
解析:选D。逻辑推理题。make up for“弥补,补偿”。根据前文所述可知,此处是说学校想利用一个周末来弥补(从有经验的教授身上学习怎么教)。
4.A.experiences B.plans
C.presentations D.designs
解析:选C。前后照应题。句意: 同事们就他们所使用的教具做了精心准备的演讲。我很欣赏他们的介绍,但他们讲的我都没有记住。前一句中的presented有暗示。

15.A.space B.time
C.room D.schedule
解析:选B。逻辑推理题。根据后文“but gave me time to think about what I was going to say next”可知作者喝咖啡的时候不仅给了学生思考的时间,也为自己思考接下来说什么留足了时间。
16.A.chances B.pauses
C.situations D.conditions
解析:选B。词汇复现题。根据“My pauses,as I ______ the coffee”可知作者利用暂停的空闲时间看学生的反应。pause“中止; 暂停”。
17.A.attention B.focus

课时作业3 (B卷)
Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
The influence of America is increasing in my country.Spanish people drink Coca Cola, wear blue jeans, watch Hollywood movies, listen to American music, and eat fast food, and they do these things every day.
I think that American movies are a good way to spread American culture because people are often influenced by what they see in the movies.Most of the programs and documentaries (纪录片) we watch on TV are from America, and most of the movies we go to see are made in Hollywood.
In the last few years, the government has tried to protect the Spanish movies.Now, in our cinemas, at least twenty percent of the movies which are shown must be from Spain or from other countries in Europe.
American culture is a part of Spanish life now.It’s certain that many things from America are as much a part of people’s lives as Spanish things.For example, Coca Cola is as familiar to everybody as any typical Spanish product.I’ve known about Coca Cola for my whole life.
However, it’s different with Western fast food.For example, I don’t think McDonald’s is as successful in Spain as it is in other countries.In my opinion, one of the reasons may be the lifestyle of the Spanish people.The Spanish people normally eat at home.
On the other hand, maybe McDonald’s hamburgers will eventually replace the famous Spanish tapas.It’s true that in every city in Spain you can find a McDonald’s, and it is more popular among the Spanish children than among the adults.In any case, it’s obvious that American culture is becoming more and more a part of our lives every day.
【解题导语】 本文主要介绍了美国文化对西班牙的影响。
1.From the first paragraph we can know that ________.
A.the influence of America on Spain can be found everywhere

2.What plays an important part in the spreading of American culture in Spain?
A.American novels.
B.Hollywood movies.
C.McDonald’s.
D.American music.
解析:选B。推理判断题。根据第二段I think that American movies are a good way to spread American culture because people are often influenced by what they see in the movies.一句可知选B。
3.Why did the government set some rules for the films shown in Spain?
A.To protect foreign culture in Spain.
B.To earn more money from Spanish films.
C.To limit the number of foreign movies.
D.To unite the European Community.
解析:选C。推理判断题。根据第三段叙述可知主要是限制国外电影的数量。
4.What do you think Spanish tapas might be?
A.The name of a drink.
B.The name of a restaurant.
C.A clothing brand.
D.A certain kind of food.
解析:选D。推理判断题。根据最后一段On the other hand, maybe McDonald’s hamburgers will eventually replace the famous Spanish tapas.一句提到被汉堡代替,可知应该是一种食物。
B
After the examination,the doctor told my parents my sight would get worse and that I would lose my sight finally.On the way home from hospital,no one said a word.One day,would I only imagine the scenery beyond the glass rather than see it?
That September,I entered middle school.Most nights I had homework that included an armful of books to read.To keep up with other children,I took great trouble to finish the task.With my nose a couple of inches from the page,I was tired easily.What’s worse,after I had read several pages on my own,the words slipped off the page into inky(漆黑的)pools.
However,then I did not have audio books and electronic devices like kids do now.Instead,Mom volunteered to read out loud.Mom worked part-time,cleaned the house,cooked and spent time with grandma.In spite of being so busy,she showed up in my room like clockwork.She put on her reading glasses.Mom always thought those glasses made her look old.To me,she looked like a teacher.
In my room,Mom’s voice competed with the ticking of the clock.Being forced to focus on listening,I found a way to keep my marks up and compete with the other kids.When the teacher asked a question,I raised my hand with confidence.Teachers praised me for having a good memory.Reading removed my fear for my failing sight;reading also made me curious about other people’s challenges and how they managed.Though I could not use my eyes to fix on each passage,my mind lit up with every new book.
True to what the doctor said,the worst came,but thanks to Mom,my sense of hearing now allows me to “see”.This was the most precious(珍贵的)gift from a mother to her child.
【解题导语】 作者视力急剧下降,最终失明了。但是母亲读书给作者听,虽然作者不能用眼睛看,但是他的母亲、他的听觉在帮助作者“看”。
5.Why did the author and his parents keep silent on their way back home from hospital?
A.They all wanted to have a good rest.
B.The author didn’t do well in the exam.
C.What the doctor said made them worried.
D.They focused on the scenery along the road.

8.Which of the following could be the best title of the text?
A.My Eyesight Trouble
B.An Unforgettable Experience
C.With Ears Wide Open
D.About Mother’s Love
解析: 选C。标题归纳题。本文主要介绍了作者的视力出现了问题,母亲读书给作者听,作者的听力帮助作者“看”。故选C。

课件39张PPT。Section Ⅳ Grammar & WritingUnit 7 The sea关系副词引导定语从句
当先行词在定语从句中作状语时,通常要用关系副词引导定语从句。常用的关系副词有where,when,why等。
一、关系副词where
1.where引导的定语从句的先行词往往是表示地点的名词(如place,room,house,spot,school,country等),在从句中作地点状语。
They went into the hall where the meeting was being held.他们走进正在开会的大厅。2.where可以引导非限制性定语从句。
Galileo lived in the city of Pisa,where there is a leaning tower about 180 feet high.
伽利略住在比萨城,那里有座大约180英尺高的斜塔。
3.关系副词where常可用“介词+关系代词”构成的表示地点的介词短语代替。
The office where (at which) he works is not far from here.他工作的办公室离这儿不远。
Japan is the place where (in which) earthquakes frequently happen.日本是地震频繁爆发的地方。
[温馨提示] where引导定语从句和状语从句的区别:
引导定语从句时,where是关系副词,在从句中作地点状语,其前有表示地点的名词作先行词,从句修饰先行词;引导状语从句时,where是从属连词,从句修饰主句的谓语动词,where前面没有表示地点的名词。
He’s got himself into a dangerous situation where he is likely to lose control over the plane.(定语从句)
他使自己陷入了一种危险的情况,他很可能会失去对飞机的控制。
When you read the book,you’d better make a mark where you have questions.(状语从句)
读这本书的时候,你最好在有疑问的地方做一下标记。二、关系副词when
1.when引导定语从句时,先行词往往是表示时间的名词(如time,day,week,month,year等),在从句中作时间状语。
He came at a time when I least expected him.
他在我最意料不到的时候来了。
I’ll never forget the day when I left for college with my father.我永远不会忘记我和父亲动身去大学的那天。2.when可以引导非限制性定语从句。
In the old days,when I was a little boy,the city had no industry to speak of.
在过去,那时我还小,这个城市没有工业可言。
3.关系副词when有时可用“介词+关系代词”代替。
I still remember the day when(on which)I joined the Youth League.我仍然记得我加入共青团的那一天。
三、关系副词why
1.why引导定语从句时,先行词往往是表示原因的词(如reason,explanation,excuse等),在从句中作原因状语。
Do you know the reason why she burst into tears?
你知道她突然大哭的原因吗?
This is the explanation why he changed the plan.
这是他改变计划的解释。
2.关系副词why有时可用“介词+关系代词”代替。
The reason why (for which) he succeeded in the exam is that he worked very hard.
他这次考试成功的原因是他学习非常努力。四、关系代词和关系副词的选择
当先行词是表示时间的time,day等或表示地点的place,house等时,一定要注意分析从句的结构。如果缺少主语或宾语,应用关系代词that或which,如果缺少时间状语或地点状语,应用关系副词when或where。
I’ll never forget the days which/that we spent together.(which/that作spent的宾语)
我永远忘不了我们一起度过的日子。His father works in a factory which/that makes radio parts.(which/that在从句中作主语)
他父亲在一家生产无线电零件的工厂里工作。
The house where I lived ten years ago has been pulled down.(where在从句中作地点状语)
我十年前住的房子已经被推倒了。形容词与副词的比较级
形容词和副词的比较级和最高级是高考必考的语法项目,必须熟练掌握其用法。对于形容词和副词的比较级和最高级的用法应注意以下具体问题:
1.表示倍数几个句型
(1)倍数+as+形容词/副词原级+as...
(2)倍数+形容词/副词比较级+than...
(3)倍数+the+性质名词+of...
(4)The+名词+be+倍数+what从句(5)The+名词+be+倍数+that/those of...
At a rough estimate,Nigeria is three times the size of Great Britain.
=At a rough estimate,Nigeria is three times as big as Great Britain.
=At a rough estimate,Nigeria is twice bigger than Great Britain.
粗略估算,尼日利亚的面积是大不列颠的3倍。
The output of this year is 3 times that of 2014.
=The output of this year is 3 times what it was in 2014.
今年的产量是2014年的三倍。2.同级的比较用as...as,the same...as,such...as引导。
Mr.Li is as good a teacher as Mr.Zhou;both of them are deeply loved by their students.李老师与周老师一样慈祥,他们都被他们的学生所深深爱戴。
3.与比较级有关的结构及运用
(1)more and more意为“越来越……”,其后接名词(不可数名词或可数名词复数均可),也可修饰形容词、副词、介词短语、动词等。
More and more people are concerning themselves with environmental problems.越来越多的人关心环境问题。(2)the+比较级...,the+比较级...表示“越……,就越……”。
The harder you work,the more progress you will make.
你越努力,取得的进步就越大。
(3)否定+比较级=最高级
He has never spent a more worrying day.
他过了最担心的一天。
(4)“no+比较级+than”结构
“no+比较级+than”结构通常不是表示一般意义的否定,而是表示对两个待比较的对象同时进行否定,通常可理解为“与……一样不……”。
You are no more careful than he is.
你和他一样不仔细。4.比较级的修饰语常见的有:
(1)rather,much,still,even,far,any(常用于否定句或疑问句),a lot,a little,a great deal,by far,a bit等。
(2)还可以用表示倍数的词或度量名词作修饰语。
(3)修饰最高级的有by far,nearly,almost,by no means等。
The bridge being built now is by far the longest across the Yellow River.现在正在修建的这座桥是迄今为止跨越黄河的最长的桥。
(3)注意比较结构中的省略现象。
在日常交际中,彼此都明白的比较对象往往省略。
—What do you think of the film?
——你认为这部电影怎么样?
—I have never seen a better one.(后边省略了than the film)——我从没有看过更好的一部。
Tom’s composition,if not better(后边省略了than Jack’s),is at least as good as Jack’s.汤姆的作文,如果不比杰克的好,至少跟他的一样好。
这种省略现象给考生正确判断造成一定的障碍,在高考中出现频率较高,应引起足够的重视。Ⅰ.句型转换

?
写法指导
一、概述
调查报告是针对某一现象、某一事件或某一问题进行深入细致的调查,对获得材料进行认真分析研究,发现本质特征和基本规律之后写成的书面报告。在英语书面表达训练中,我们经常会遇到这一类写作题,要求同学们根据调查结果,对某种现象进行分析并谈谈自己的看法,写一份调查报告。二、具体写作步骤和写作方法
写调查报告要写明调查的原因、调查过程、调查结果以及你得出的结论。一般而言,写调查报告时要从以下几个方面进行分析和写作:
首先,根据题目中所给的现象和问题做一些客观的介绍,通常使用的时态是一般现在时。这类题目一般会给出一个图
表,列举一些数据或一些事实。我们首先要描述这个图表中的信息。常见的写作方法有:
(1)按调查的先后顺序逐点写;
(2)按事物发展的阶段来写;(3)将两种事物进行对比,以显示其是非、优劣,找出其差异来写;
(4)按调查对象的特点分门别类来写。
其次,分析这些数据或事实反映出的问题。这部分不是调查报告的主体,通常用一两句话阐述就可以。但要做到“一针见血”,即观点提炼准确、鲜明。
最后,通常在文章的最后一段阐述作者个人的看法和建议。
常用句式
1.According to a survey...
2.I’ve made a survey and find that...
3.A recent study shows that...
4.As far as I know...
5.Some...while some...
6.I think...
7.In my opinion...
8.I hope...
9.I advise that…写作要求

When you read the book,you’d better make a mark where you have questions.(状语从句)
读这本书的时候,你最好在有疑问的地方做一下标记。
二、关系副词when
1.when引导定语从句时,先行词往往是表示时间的名词(如time,day,week,month,year等),在从句中作时间状语。
He came at a time when I least expected him.
他在我最意料不到的时候来了。
I’ll never forget the day when I left for college with my father.我永远不会忘记我和父亲动身去大学的那天。
2.when可以引导非限制性定语从句。
In the old days,when I was a little boy,the city had no industry to speak of.
在过去,那时我还小,这个城市没有工业可言。
3.关系副词when有时可用“介词+关系代词”代替。
I still remember the day when(on which)I joined the Youth League.我仍然记得我加入共青团的那一天。
三、关系副词why
1.why引导定语从句时,先行词往往是表示原因的词(如reason,explanation,excuse等),在从句中作原因状语。

你知道她突然大哭的原因吗?
This is the explanation why he changed the plan.
这是他改变计划的解释。
2.关系副词why有时可用“介词+关系代词”代替。
The reason why (for which) he succeeded in the exam is that he worked very hard.
他这次考试成功的原因是他学习非常努力。
四、关系代词和关系副词的选择
当先行词是表示时间的time,day等或表示地点的place,house等时,一定要注意分析从句的结构。如果缺少主语或宾语,应用关系代词that或which,如果缺少时间状语或地点状语,应用关系副词when或where。
I’ll never forget the days which/that we spent together.(which/that作spent的宾语)
我永远忘不了我们一起度过的日子。
His father works in a factory which/that makes radio parts.(which/that在从句中作主语)
他父亲在一家生产无线电零件的工厂里工作。
The house where I lived ten years ago has been pulled down.(where在从句中作地点状语)
我十年前住的房子已经被推倒了。
形容词与副词的比较级
形容词和副词的比较级和最高级是高考必考的语法项目,必须熟练掌握其用法。对于形容词和副词的比较级和最高级的用法应注意以下具体问题:
1.表示倍数几个句型
(1)倍数+as+形容词/副词原级+as...
(2)倍数+形容词/副词比较级+than...
(3)倍数+the+性质名词+of...
(4)The+名词+be+倍数+what从句
(5)The+名词+be+倍数+that/those of...
At a rough estimate,Nigeria is three times the size of Great Britain.
=At a rough estimate,Nigeria is three times as big as Great Britain.
=At a rough estimate,Nigeria is twice bigger than Great Britain.
粗略估算,尼日利亚的面积是大不列颠的3倍。
The output of this year is 3 times that of 2014.
=The output of this year is 3 times what it was in 2014.
今年的产量是2014年的三倍。
2.同级的比较用as...as,the same...as,such...as引导。
Mr.Li is as good a teacher as Mr.Zhou;both of them are deeply loved by their students.李老师与周老师一样慈祥,他们都被他们的学生所深深爱戴。
3.与比较级有关的结构及运用
(1)more and more意为“越来越……”,其后接名词(不可数名词或可数名词复数均可),也可修饰形容词、副词、介词短语、动词等。
More and more people are concerning themselves with environmental problems.越来越多的人关心环境问题。
(2)the+比较级...,the+比较级...表示“越……,就越……”。
The harder you work,the more progress you will make.
你越努力,取得的进步就越大。
(3)否定+比较级=最高级
He has never spent a more worrying day.
他过了最担心的一天。
(4)“no+比较级+than”结构
“no+比较级+than”结构通常不是表示一般意义的否定,而是表示对两个待比较的对象同时进行否定,通常可理解为“与……一样不……”。
You are no more careful than he is.
你和他一样不仔细。
4.比较级的修饰语常见的有:
(1)rather,much,still,even,far,any(常用于否定句或疑问句),a lot,a little,a great deal,by far,a bit等。
(2)还可以用表示倍数的词或度量名词作修饰语。
(3)修饰最高级的有by far,nearly,almost,by no means等。
The bridge being built now is by far the longest across the Yellow River.现在正在修建的这座桥是迄今为止跨越黄河的最长的桥。
[温馨提示] (1)比较的对象应该相同。
The weather here is colder than that of Beijing.
这里的天气比北京的天气冷。
(2)比较的对象不能相互包含,常见的句型是:
比较级+than+
The Mississippi River is longer than any other river in the United States.密西西比河比美国其他任何一条河都长。
China is larger than
(3)注意比较结构中的省略现象。
在日常交际中,彼此都明白的比较对象往往省略。
—What do you think of the film?
——你认为这部电影怎么样?
—I have never seen a better one.(后边省略了than the film)——我从没有看过更好的一部。
Tom’s composition,if not better(后边省略了than Jack’s),is at least as good as Jack’s.汤姆的作文,如果不比杰克的好,至少跟他的一样好。
这种省略现象给考生正确判断造成一定的障碍,在高考中出现频率较高,应引起足够的重视。

如何写调查报告(Ⅰ)
写法指导
一、概述
调查报告是针对某一现象、某一事件或某一问题进行深入细致的调查,对获得材料进行认真分析研究,发现本质特征和基本规律之后写成的书面报告。在英语书面表达训练中,我们经常会遇到这一类写作题,要求同学们根据调查结果,对某种现象进行分析并谈谈自己的看法,写一份调查报告。
二、具体写作步骤和写作方法
写调查报告要写明调查的原因、调查过程、调查结果以及你得出的结论。一般而言,写调查报告时要从以下几个方面进行分析和写作:
首先,根据题目中所给的现象和问题做一些客观的介绍,通常使用的时态是一般现在时。这类题目一般会给出一个图表,列举一些数据或一些事实。我们首先要描述这个图表中的信息。常见的写作方法有:
(1)按调查的先后顺序逐点写;
(2)按事物发展的阶段来写;
(3)将两种事物进行对比,以显示其是非、优劣,找出其差异来写;
(4)按调查对象的特点分门别类来写。
其次,分析这些数据或事实反映出的问题。这部分不是调查报告的主体,通常用一两句话阐述就可以。但要做到“一针见血”,即观点提炼准确、鲜明。
最后,通常在文章的最后一段阐述作者个人的看法和建议。
常用句式
1.According to a survey...
2.I’ve made a survey and find that...
3.A recent study shows that...
4.As far as I know...
5.Some...while some...
6.I think...
7.In my opinion...
8.I hope...
9.I advise that...

70% of us are in favor of it as living on campus can help develop a good habit of studying and living.Besides,they can spend less time on the way to school and home.What’s more,they can consult teachers and discuss with classmates,which will contribute to their improvement.

Personally,I think it’s necessary to live on campus because we can live,study and play together happily.

“The noise made by boats of whale watching tourists may be causing communication problems for the animals.”British researchers said last week.
Whale watching is a popular tourist activity in places where groups of killer whales(虎鲸)live.Every day,dozens of boats filled with tourists go to watch the beautiful animals.Unfortunately,the engines of the boats make a lot of noise,and that may be causing problems for the whales,according to a report in the US science magazine Nature.
The whales travel in groups,and communicate with each other through sonic(声波的)calls that some scientists refer to as singing.The sounds of the boat engines may be creating too much background noise for the whales to be able to hear each other.
The researchers listened to recordings of whale calls made between 15 and 25 years ago,before whale watching became popular.These were compared to more recent recordings.
They found that the animals have started to sing for longer than they used to,like a person shouting to a friend across a noisy room.
It is believed that the whales are trying to communicate hunting or breeding information.Scientists said that,if this is prevented,the future of the world’s whale population could be in danger.
“Animals become slow in mind and repeat themselves in noisy areas,”said Volker Deecke,a Canadian biologist.“They have to say things twice or three times in order to be understood.”
The killer whales studied were living off the coast of northwestern America.The number of killer whales in this area has been falling for several years,but scientists are not sure why.
1.What does the underlined word“breeding” in Paragraph 6 mean?
A.Singing to others.
B.Producing young.
C.Caring about the old.
D.Hunting for food.
解析:选B。词义理解题。由第六段第二句可知,科学家说如果这件事情被阻止的话,世界上鲸的数量将处于危险中,因此推断breeding指的是“繁殖”。
2.The passage mainly tells us________.
A.the problems of whale watching
B.how killer whales communicate with each other
C.the reduced population of killer whales caused by whale watching
D.hearing problems of the killer whales caused by whale watching
解析:选D。主旨大意题。文章讲述了观鲸船的噪音给虎鲸的信息交流造成了麻烦。
3.Now in a noisy background,the killer whales have to________.
A.sing in a louder voice
B.sing longer
C.travel in smaller groups
D.get nearer to each other
解析:选B。细节理解题。由第五段可知,因为受噪音干扰,现在虎鲸“唱”的时间比原来长。
4.From the passage,we can feel that the author is________.
A.angry B.hopeful
C.worried D.disappointed
解析:选C。推理判断题。文章介绍观鲸船的噪音给虎鲸的交流造成了困难,而且虎鲸数量在下降,科学家也不明白其中原因,因此显然作者对此感到“担忧”。

Almost everyone likes to eat apples.Apples grow in nearly every part of the world.The United States produces more apples than any other country except France.The states of Washington and New York grow the most apples.Perhaps this is why “New York” is often called “Big Apple” by some people.New York is on the east coast and Washington is on the west near Canada.
Apples are red, yellow or green.They are very popular in the United States.Many_people_like_to_carry_apples_to_work_or_to_school_to_eat_with_their_lunches.Most American people are often too busy or too tired to cook dinner, so they often have their dinners very simply.Apple juice is also a popular drink and apple pie is the favorite sweet dish for many Americans.
The state of Washington is proud of its apples.The trees there produce nearly five billion apples every year—one apple for every man, woman and child in the whole world.
There are many stories and sayings about apples.For example, “You are the apple of my eye.” means “You are actually the one I love best and care most.” In China, it is a custom in some places for the marrying couple to hold an apple in each one’s hand, promising that their marriage will be “safe” without anything bad and that their marriage will never be broken.“To apple polish” often refers to a man who fawns (奉承) on somebody for the purpose of getting some benefits.So you can easily get “apple polisher”.While “in apple-pie order” usually has the same meaning as “in good order”.It is likely that you hear about “compare apples and oranges”.In fact, it’s another saying about “compare two things that can’t be compared”.

Nearly all the tourists who come to southeast France make a tour to Monaco(摩纳哥),too.Lying near the French-Italian border,Monaco is not part of France,but a separate principality(公国),though it is surrounded by its greatest neighbour.
Monaco became a principality in the 16th century after being owned by a family member of a certain Italian king.The French and Italians,however,soon came to “protect” it one after another,until 1861,when it became its own master again.
Facing the blue Mediterranean(地中海),Monaco is mainly made up of two cities,Monaco,where the palace of the prince(王子)stands,and Monte Carlo(蒙特卡洛),which is a wonderful place for tourists.Every year,around half a million people from all parts of the world come to Monaco,nearly 25 times as much as its population.

Reading Interests of Senior High School Students
Recently a survey has been done to find out the reading interests of senior high school students.In this survey,one thousand senior high school students from ten schools in Hubei Province were interviewed.They were asked which they liked reading most among the four categories of English articles:news,stories,popular science articles and articles about learning methods.
The survey shows that more than half of the students like to read news most.Twenty-six percent of the students say that English stories are their favorite.Only seven percent of the students are most interested in reading articles about learning methods.However,the number of students who enjoy reading popular science articles doubles that of those who prefer reading articles about learning methods.

Almost everyone likes to eat apples.Apples grow in nearly every part of the world.The United States produces more apples than any other country except France.The states of Washington and New York grow the most apples.Perhaps this is why “New York” is often called “Big Apple” by some people.New York is on the east coast and Washington is on the west near Canada.
Apples are red, yellow or green.They are very popular in the United States.Many_people_like_to_carry_apples_to_work_or_to_school_to_eat_with_their_lunches.Most American people are often too busy or too tired to cook dinner, so they often have their dinners very simply.Apple juice is also a popular drink and apple pie is the favorite sweet dish for many Americans.
The state of Washington is proud of its apples.The trees there produce nearly five billion apples every year—one apple for every man, woman and child in the whole world.
There are many stories and sayings about apples.For example, “You are the apple of my eye.” means “You are actually the one I love best and care most.” In China, it is a custom in some places for the marrying couple to hold an apple in each one’s hand, promising that their marriage will be “safe” without anything bad and that their marriage will never be broken.“To apple polish” often refers to a man who fawns (奉承) on somebody for the purpose of getting some benefits.So you can easily get “apple polisher”.While “in apple-pie order” usually has the same meaning as “in good order”.It is likely that you hear about “compare apples and oranges”.In fact, it’s another saying about “compare two things that can’t be compared”.

Reading Interests of Senior High School Students
Recently a survey has been done to find out the reading interests of senior high school students.In this survey,one thousand senior high school students from ten schools in Hubei Province were interviewed.They were asked which they liked reading most among the four categories of English articles:news,stories,popular science articles and articles about learning methods.
The survey shows that more than half of the students like to read news most.Twenty-six percent of the students say that English stories are their favorite.Only seven percent of the students are most interested in reading articles about learning methods.However,the number of students who enjoy reading popular science articles doubles that of those who prefer reading articles about learning methods.
