以读促写:情感表达之“愤怒”
My inner anger was like a growing monster, uncontrollably driving me to the edge of madness. Before I realized it, I was sobbing in my sister's room, with bullets of words firing through my mouth, expressing my long buried dissatisfaction towards her absence from my snow shoveling experiences. The house seemed to be holding its breath when I stopped my accusation, still weeping.
我心中的怒火像一头渐长渐大的怪兽,失控地快把我逼疯了。我还来不及弄清怎么回事,就在姐姐房里啜泣,口无遮拦,放连珠炮似的发泄我压抑很久的不满:她不来和我一道体验铲雪。房子似乎屏住呼吸,我才停止谴责,但仍泪流不止。
高分悟道 本段中使用了“like a growing monster”与“with bullets of words firing through my mouth”两处比喻的修辞手法和“uncontrollably driving me to the edge of madness”一处夸张的修辞手法,形象地刻画了作者内心极大的愤怒。
高分有招 常见的表示“愤怒”的高分词块和句式有: explode with anger 勃然大怒 tremble with anger 气得发抖 a burst of anger 一股怒火 storm into/out of 气冲冲闯入/离开 sb.'s face darkened/falls某人的脸黑/沉了下来 fuel one's anger 激怒某人 be tongue tied with anger 气得说不出话来

数智赋能 随堂训练—用单元所学知识补全语段
(2021·全国甲卷· 阅读理解C篇)When I was 9, we packed up our home in Los Angeles and arrived at Heathrow, London on a gray January morning.Everyone in the family settled quickly into the city except me.Without my beloved beaches and endless blue sky days, I felt at a loss and out of place.Until I made a discovery.
Southbank, at an eastern bend in the Thames, is the center of British skateboarding, where the continuous crashing of skateboards left your head ringing.I loved it.I soon made friends with the local skaters.We spoke our own language.And my favorite: Safe.Safe meant cool.It meant hello.It meant don't worry about it.Once, when trying a certain trick on the beam (横杆),I fell onto the stones, damaging a nerve in my hand, and Toby came over, helping me up: Safe, man.Safe.A few minutes later, when I landed the trick, my friends beat their boards loud, shouting:“Safe!_Safe!_Safe!” And that's what mattered — landing tricks, being a good skater.
When I was 15, my family moved to Washington.I tried skateboarding there, but the locals were far less welcoming.Within a couple of years, I'd given it up.
When I returned to London in 2004, I found myself wandering down to Southbank, spending hours there.I've traveled back several times since, most recently this past spring.The day was cold but clear; tourists and Londoners stopped to watch the skaters.Weaving (穿梭) among the kids who rushed by on their boards, I found my way to the beam.Then a rail thin teenager, in a baggy white T shirt, skidded (滑) up to the beam.He sat next to me. He seemed not to notice the man next to him.But soon I caught a few of his glances.“I was a local here 20 years ago,” I told him.Then, slowly, he began to nod his head.“Safe, man.Safe.”
“Yeah,” I said.“Safe.”

But luckily, I met some classmates from all over the world, and the wonderful interactions with people reduced my negative feelings. Learning how to make friends with people from different cultures and backgrounds is really fun. Moreover, interacting with these new friends helps me have a better understanding of the countries they represent.

以读促写:情感表达之“愤怒”
My inner anger was like a growing monster, uncontrollably driving me to the edge of madness. Before I realized it, I was sobbing in my sister's room, with bullets of words firing through my mouth, expressing my long-buried dissatisfaction towards her absence from my snow shoveling experiences. The house seemed to be holding its breath when I stopped my accusation, still weeping.
我心中的怒火像一头渐长渐大的怪兽,失控地快把我逼疯了。我还来不及弄清怎么回事,就在姐姐房里啜泣,口无遮拦,放连珠炮似的发泄我压抑很久的不满:她不来和我一道体验铲雪。房子似乎屏住呼吸,我才停止谴责,但仍泪流不止。
高分悟道 本段中使用了“like a growing monster”与“with bullets of words firing through my mouth”两处比喻的修辞手法和“uncontrollably driving me to the edge of madness”一处夸张的修辞手法,形象地刻画了作者内心极大的愤怒。

(2021·全国甲卷· 阅读理解C篇)When I was 9, we packed up our home in Los Angeles and arrived at Heathrow, London on a gray January morning.Everyone in the family settled quickly into the city except me.Without my beloved beaches and endless blue-sky days, I felt at a loss and out of place.Until I made a discovery.
Southbank, at an eastern bend in the Thames, is the center of British skateboarding, where the continuous crashing of skateboards left your head ringing.I loved it.I soon made friends with the local skaters.We spoke our own language.And my favorite: Safe.Safe meant cool.It meant hello.It meant don't worry about it.Once, when trying a certain trick on the beam (横杆),I fell onto the stones, damaging a nerve in my hand, and Toby came over, helping me up: Safe, man.Safe.A few minutes later, when I landed the trick, my friends beat their boards loud, shouting:“Safe! Safe! Safe!” And that's what mattered — landing tricks, being a good skater.
When I was 15, my family moved to Washington.I tried skateboarding there, but the locals were far less welcoming.Within a couple of years, I'd given it up.
When I returned to London in 2004, I found myself wandering down to Southbank, spending hours there.I've traveled back several times since, most recently this past spring.The day was cold but clear; tourists and Londoners stopped to watch the skaters.Weaving (穿梭) among the kids who rushed by on their boards, I found my way to the beam.Then a rail-thin teenager, in a baggy white T-shirt, skidded (滑) up to the beam.
He sat next to me. He seemed not to notice the man next to him.But soon I caught a few of his glances.“I was a local here 20 years ago,” I told him.Then, slowly, he began to nod his head.“Safe, man.Safe.”
“Yeah,” I said.“Safe.”
[真题评价]

During the first few weeks, I was overwhelmed by the academic requirements. Long lists of reference books, numerous projects, papers and professors with varying personalities wore me out,which sometimes made me sad and homesick. But luckily, I met some classmates from all over the world, and the wonderful interactions with people reduced my negative feelings. Learning how to make friends with people from different cultures and backgrounds is really fun. Moreover, interacting with these new friends helps me have a better understanding of the countries they represent.

课时作业(一)
Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
(2025·淮北联考)As a big country, China's economic and political influence is felt around the world. And its influence in education and culture has been growing too. The Confucius Institute offering free language classes has gained increasing popularity in both Hungary and Serbia. By offering opportunities to learn Chinese language and traditional arts, Confucius Institutes bring Chinese culture closer to interested learners serving as bridges between nations.
During my childhood, I held an unspoken fascination for Asian culture — a passion cultivated through watching dramas such as the Monkey King. At the time, the idea of studying this captivating region didn't occupy my mind. My turning point came when the desire to challenge myself led me to choose China for further education. It was a decision — not only for academic growth, but also to experience the responsibility of looking after myself. Taking the road that is less traveled means less company, less comfort. But it also means forging a life with an entirely different perspective I am seeking.
Undertaking Chinese language training presented a remarkable opportunity for many reasons. I firmly believe that acquiring proficiency in the language of the culture is not merely useful, but also an effective means to truly understand that culture. The combination of learning the language in a classroom setting and applying it in everyday life offers an enriching experience. I participated in the Chinese Mid-Autumn Festival celebrations held by my local Confucius Institute, such as trying my hand at Chinese crafts providing me with a first-hand experience of the culture.
If given another chance, I would explore even deeper into the rich cultural tapestry that surrounds me. Exploring renowned landmarks like the oriental Pearl Tower previously unvisited, felt like embarking on a new journey of discovery. I can say that along this path, I am gradually learning that valuable lessons unfold step by step.

(2025·重庆模拟)“A fish out of water.” “A bike without a chain.”There are many metaphors for culture shock, all of which attempt to describe the unique experience of being far from one's home country and culture.
Scientists have studied culture shock for over a century. Rather than focus on the purely negative aspects, psychologists describe it as a process of stress and adjustment. The first stage is the honeymoon phase, when we are filled with excitement about being in another country.
Eventually, as daily challenges arise, we enter a state of crisis and anxiety, harboring unfriendly feelings about the host culture. The longer we are immersed in the culture, the harder it is for us to adjust and recover from those negative feelings. Finally, after some time we adjust even more and fully accept the new culture.
One of the factors that determines how we react to cultural stress is our personality. Not surprisingly, extraverts (外向者) tend to have an easier time adjusting to new cultures. That is because being in a new country means meeting many new people and spending a lot of time around them, and extraverts thrive in these situations. But introverts simply prefer to be alone after spending time in groups, and only have limited energy to spend in social settings.
Cultural intelligence, or CQ, also plays its part. Cultural intelligence is defined as the capability of an individual to function effectively in situations characterized by cultural diversity. It has to do with our interest in interacting with people from culturally diverse backgrounds, and our ability to adapt to new cultural context. It is argued that the higher our CQ, the lesser the effect of culture shock on our ability to cope in new situations.
Many effective coping strategies are interpersonal. A recent study found that relating to others with empathy is significantly associated with lower stress levels abroad. The more we are able to take on other people's points of view, the more positive our interpersonal relationships and thus our adaptation to the stress of culture shock.

6.How will a person feel the moment he arrives in a foreign country
A.Anxious. B.Thrilled.
C.Shocked. D.Grateful.
解析:细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The first stage is the honeymoon phase, when we are filled with excitement about being in another country.”可知,人们刚到国外时的感觉是兴奋的。

A.An active boy interested in anything new.
B.A shy boy unwilling to socialize with strangers.

课时作业(二)
Ⅰ.阅读七选五
(2025·哈尔滨模拟)Living and studying abroad can be a rewarding and enriching experience. And living with a host family is one of the best ways to immerse yourself in its culture. However, living with a foreign family can be difficult and adjusting to it can take some effort. 1
Involve yourself in family activities. If you spend all your time in your room, it's going to be hard to feel like you belong. Getting involved in everyday activities with your host family will help you create a family bond. For example, some families like having dinner together on weekends. 2 Not only will they appreciate it but you will also feel like a part of their world.
Be patient with yourself. Keep in mind that you've just left everything you've known for years behind to start a new life. It's okay to be confused. 3 While you may know the language, some expressions and slang can be hard to grasp at first. Take it easy. Remember you will adapt but it will take some time.
Communication is key. If you are unsure about something, ask! It's normal to know few customs and habits at first. 4 Your host family will understand and help you. It's also normal not to know a lot about unspoken social rules of the country.
5 You have to understand that host families are not just providing a roof over your head. They are making significant changes to their daily routines. Thank them for their kindness, patience and understanding. Let them know how much their assistance means to you.
Remember, a grateful heart is a happy heart, and a happy heart will lead you to further success and fulfillment in your life abroad.
A.Be open and respectful.
B.Make time for those moments.
C.The language barrier can also be a struggle.
D.So instead of doing things blindly, just ask!
E.Showing your gratitude will take you a long way.
F.You may well recall the memorable moments with friends back home.
G.Here are some tips on making the most of your host family experience.

2.选B 上文提到有些家庭喜欢在周末一起吃晚饭,下文说明了周末一起聚餐会有积极效果。B项承上启下,选项中的“those moments”和上文中的“some families like having dinner together on weekends.”相呼应。
3.选C 根据上下文可知,在国外学习生活意味着放弃了多年来所熟悉的一切,开始新的生活,存在困惑是正常的。C项承上启下,选项中的also和上文形成递进关系,“The language barrier”和下文的“some expressions and slang can be hard to grasp”相呼应,说明语言障碍也是适应过程中的一项挑战。
4.选D 根据上文可知,如果有不确定的事情要主动发问,尝试去了解一些风俗习惯。D项和上文形成因果关系,表示在了解的过程中需要大胆去询问。选项中的“just ask!”和上文中的“If you are unsure about something, ask!”相呼应。

Seven-year-old Maggie was a grade-one pupil. She often spent her free time socializing with the seniors at a local retirement facility. In general, she would talk about puzzles, ice cream bars, and everything under the sun with the seniors. But most particularly, Maggie read to them, which she called her sweet task. Once or twice a week, the little girl put a few books in her backpack and got ready to visit the elderly at the facility.
精品课件·名师析题
This sweet task began on a snowy day. Maggie's mom, Tiffany Kuznia, worked at the retirement facility and often brought her daughter with her to work. As little Maggie was packing her bag, Kuznia reminded her to bring her Nintendo Switch so she would not get bored. Maggie quickly replied that she had different plans for the day. “I'm going to bring books and I'm going to read to the residents,” she declared.
On arrival, the girl knocked on every door of the facility to offer her services. That day, she made a good start. Patti Griggs, a retired elementary school teacher, was astonished by her reading talent. “She's such a good little reader. I taught first-grade kids how to read. There were very few children who could come in and read like that,” said Griggs.
With time, Maggie became so beloved among the residents that she even had “regulars” she read to every week. She often visited each one for over an hour. Her mom checked on her regularly to make sure she wasn't overstaying her welcome. Much to Maggie's delight, the residents were more than happy to have her with them for an extended period of time. They were always ready to help her out when she struggled with new words. Such hiccups (小问题) happened less and less and Maggie grew more confident of reading aloud.
Two months later, Maggie realized that her companions had different hobbies and interests. And their educational levels varied from person to person. It was high time that she should make some changes.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式作答。
Maggie decided to choose different books according to their tastes.
___________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________ With Patti Griggs' help, a personalized reading plan was ready.

参考范文:
Maggie decided to choose different books according to their tastes. To satisfy everyone's taste, she asked each senior what type of reading materials they enjoyed listening to. She got different answers which involved current news, children's stories, recipe and travel books. Some were more interested in poetry and drama. With the collected information, she made a reading plan for everyone. In order to make the plan practical, she went to Patti Griggs for help, who gave her some useful guidance.
With Patti Griggs' help, a personalized reading plan was ready. Now the first priority was to get so many kinds of reading materials. Maggie managed to win over her mother and buy many varieties of books from the bookstore. She also borrowed some from her little friends. Moved by Maggie's kindness, some seniors donated their favorite books. Patti Griggs also downloaded some poems and humorous stories from the Internet and printed them to Maggie. Everything was going smoothly. Apparently the sweet task was a win-win situation benefiting both sides. Maggie improved her reading skills and made some adorable friends. As for the residents, Maggie brightened up their day.选择性必修2 UNIT 2 单元双测·课时作业(一)

(2025·哈尔滨模拟)Living and studying abroad can be a rewarding and enriching experience. And living with a host family is one of the best ways to immerse yourself in its culture. However, living with a foreign family can be difficult and adjusting to it can take some effort. 1
Involve yourself in family activities. If you spend all your time in your room, it’s going to be hard to feel like you belong. Getting involved in everyday activities with your host family will help you create a family bond. For example, some families like having dinner together on weekends. 2 Not only will they appreciate it but you will also feel like a part of their world.
Be patient with yourself. Keep in mind that you’ve just left everything you’ve known for years behind to start a new life. It’s okay to be confused. 3 While you may know the language, some expressions and slang can be hard to grasp at first. Take it easy. Remember you will adapt but it will take some time.
Communication is key. If you are unsure about something, ask! It’s normal to know few customs and habits at first. 4 Your host family will understand and help you. It’s also normal not to know a lot about unspoken social rules of the country.
5 You have to understand that host families are not just providing a roof over your head. They are making significant changes to their daily routines. Thank them for their kindness, patience and understanding. Let them know how much their assistance means to you.
Remember, a grateful heart is a happy heart, and a happy heart will lead you to further success and fulfillment in your life abroad.
A.Be open and respectful.
B.Make time for those moments.
C.The language barrier can also be a struggle.

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Seven year old Maggie was a grade one pupil. She often spent her free time socializing with the seniors at a local retirement facility. In general, she would talk about puzzles, ice cream bars, and everything under the sun with the seniors. But most particularly, Maggie read to them, which she called her sweet task. Once or twice a week, the little girl put a few books in her backpack and got ready to visit the elderly at the facility.
This sweet task began on a snowy day. Maggie’s mom, Tiffany Kuznia, worked at the retirement facility and often brought her daughter with her to work. As little Maggie was packing her bag, Kuznia reminded her to bring her Nintendo Switch so she would not get bored. Maggie quickly replied that she had different plans for the day. “I’m going to bring books and I’m going to read to the residents,” she declared.
On arrival, the girl knocked on every door of the facility to offer her services. That day, she made a good start. Patti Griggs, a retired elementary school teacher, was astonished by her reading talent. “She’s such a good little reader. I taught first grade kids how to read. There were very few children who could come in and read like that,” said Griggs.
With time, Maggie became so beloved among the residents that she even had “regulars” she read to every week. She often visited each one for over an hour. Her mom checked on her regularly to make sure she wasn’t overstaying her welcome. Much to Maggie’s delight, the residents were more than happy to have her with them for an extended period of time. They were always ready to help her out when she struggled with new words. Such hiccups (小问题) happened less and less and Maggie grew more confident of reading aloud.
Two months later, Maggie realized that her companions had different hobbies and interests. And their educational levels varied from person to person. It was high time that she should make some changes.
