A. asking B. asked C. having asked D.to ask
【答案】B
2. Will that be of any use to you?这点儿钱对你有用吗?
of any use相当于useful,在句中作表语。“of+名词”是一个常用结构,这种结构可在句中作表语、后置定语和补语。该结构的常见类型:
(1)be of+表示“年龄(age)、大小(size)、颜色(color)、重量(weight)、高度(height)、价格(price)、意见(opinion)、
形状(shape)、种类(kind)和方法(way)等”的名词:这些名词没有相应的形容词形式,因此不能用“be+形
容词”来代替“be+of+n.”,用在这些名词前的限定词常是a,an,the,the same,my,your等,of表
示“具有”,有时可省去。
?We are of the same age.我们同岁。
(2)be of+抽象名词(value,importance,use,help等);主要用于说明主语的性质。常用于名词前的修饰语有
great,little,some,any,no,not,much等。这一结构相当于“be+抽象名词所对应的形容词”,of不能省。
?The advice are of great help/very helpful to them.这个建议对他们来说是很有帮助的。

用恰当词语或形式填空
①________the damage is done,it will take many years for the farmland to recover.
②Though________(surprise)to see us,the professor gave us a warm welcome.
【答案】
①Once 句意:一旦农田被毁坏,将需要许多年的时间才得以恢复。Once 一旦;一经……便。结合句意填once。
②surprised 考查非谓语动词。所选词的逻辑主语是the professor,所以填surprised“惊讶的”。此处Though
surprised to see us也可看作是状语从句的省略,相当于Though he was surprised to see us。

Having a shy style isn’t necessarily a problem. It’s OK to take time to warm up to new people and situations. 1 Some people want to feel less shy so they can enjoy socializing and being themselves around others. Here are some tips on overcoming shy feelings.
● 2 Practice social behaviors like eye contact, confident body language, introductions, small talk, asking
questions, and invitations with people you feel most comfortable around. Smile and build your confidence.
● Think of some conversation starters. Often the hardest part of talking to someone new is getting started. Think of
conversation openers, like introducing yourself, giving a compliment (赞美), or asking a question. 3
● Rehearse (排练) what to say. When you are ready to try something you’ve been avoiding because of shyness — like
a phone call or a conversation, write down what you want to say. Read it out loud in front of a mirror. Then just do
your social activities. 4 Few of the things that more confident people do are perfect, either.
● Give yourself a chance. 5 Practice socializing with these new people and get to know them slowly. People
who are shy often worry about failing or how others will judge them. Don’t let these worries and feelings keep you
from trying.
A. Start small with people you know.
B. Then you can start smiling and saying “hello” in real life.
C. One of the best ways to get over shyness is to believe in yourself.
D. Find group activities where you can be with people who share your interests.
E. Being ready with a conversation starter makes it easier to approach someone.
F. Don’t worry if they’re not exactly like you have practiced or they’re not perfect.
G. But shyness prevents some people from being as comfortable as they’d like to be.

Pygmalion?is a drama in which Shaw has made sentiments one of the principal themes of discussion. The Greek sculptor Pygmalion carved a statue and fell in love with it. Aphrodite (the goddess of love) turned the statue into a living woman named Galatea, who then became Pygmalion’s wife.
The Shavian Pygmalion is Henry Higgins, a professor of phonetics, who picks up a flower girl, Eliza Doolittle, teaches her to speak as educated people do, and then successfully?passes?her?off?as?a duchess. But she is a human being and cannot be treated as a machine. In the course of all his experiments and exhibitions, the professor only thinks of the success and failure of his own skills, but never stops to consider how the girl feels. When the experiment is over, he has a profound sense of relief that he has achieved triumph and has won his bet. Even now, the sentiment of the girl is of no account. The girl naturally protests against this dehumanized relationship between her and her teacher. She hurls the professor’s slippers at him when he wants them and then leaves his place. But evidently, she has begun to feel for the professor and wants also to be felt for.
Now the question is what is the nature of Eliza’s feelings for the professor with whom she has lived in close association for so long? In the last act, the girl says she would not marry him even if he had proposed (求婚) to her. The professor, curiously ineffectual (无能的) to sexual emotions, does not love any girl because he finds her to be the rival (对手) to his mother. He wonders, if Eliza does not want to marry him, then what does she want from him? Old Mrs. Higgins, who knows much about a woman says that it would have been better if he had thanked her and petted her and told her how wonderful she had been. Then perhaps she would not have fought with him. Every girl loves to be loved. Eliza herself says that she loves Freddy and he also loves her. Professor Higgins, however, remains as ever, an old bachelor.
1. What does the underlined phrase "passes her off as" in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. let her pretend to be
B. dress her up as
C. make her become
D. turn into
2. What kind of person do you think Higgins is according to Paragraph 2?
A. He is a kind man.
B. He is a considerate man.
C. He is a selfish man.
D. He is a rude man.
3. Eliza doesn’t marry Higgins because? .
A. she does not love him
B. Higgins’ mother does not like any girl to be her rival
C. Higgins likes to be a bachelor
D. Higgins does not love any girl for fear of her being his mother’s rival
4. What’s the main idea of this text?
A. It’s about the story between Shaw and Pygmalion.
B. It’s about the Greek sculptor Pygmalion and his statue.
C. It’s about the content of the drama?Pygmalion.
D. It’s about the love story of Higgins and Eliza.

Harper Lee, whose 1961 novel?To Kill a Mockingbird?on the?racial troubles of the American deep south, has died at the age of 89.
Until last year, Lee had been?something of a one—book literary legend.?To kill a Mockingbird?sold more than 40 million copies around the world and earned her a Pulitzer prize, remaining a towering presence in American literature. Another novel,?GoSet A Watchman, was controversially published in July 2015 as a “sequel” to?Mockingbird, though it was later confirmed to be?Mockingbird’s first draft.
But from the moment?Mockingbird?was published to almost instant success, the author consistently avoided public attention. Lee had lived for several years in a nursing home near the house in which she had grown up in Monroeville, Alabama—the setting for?Maycomb?of her famous book. Her neighbor for 40 years, Sue Sellers, said, “She was such a private person. All she wanted was privacy, but she didn’t get much. There was always somebody following her around.”
James Naughtie, BBC Books Editor, commented on the novels of Harper Lee: “I think she stands, particularly among American readers, as someone who shone a light into a very dark place. She was writing at a time when people were beginning to lift the lid on everything in the South which they’d chosen not to understand. That all changed in the 1960s. So I think her status for writing that book in its extraordinarily direct way will remain.
5. What does the underlined part in Paragraph2 probably mean?
A. Lee became successful with stories on American south.
B. People owe Lee’s success to luck to some degree.
C. Mockingbird makes Lee a wonder in American literature.
D. Mockingbird?was a bestseller by selling 40 million copies.
6. What does?“Maycomb”?in Paragraph3 probably refer to?
A. A nursing home.
B. Lee’s hometown.
C. A fiction place
D. A main character
7. Which best describes Americans' attitude towards racial troubles before the 1960s?
A. Tolerant B. Unconcerned
C. Sympathetic D. Dissatisfied
8. What can we learn from the text?
A. Lee based all her stories on her life.
B. Lee had to avoid being followed by her fans.
C. Lee wrote?Go Set A Watchman?before?Mockingbird.【来源:21·世纪·教育·网】
D. Lee lived in the house where she grew up for the whole life.

【语篇解读】本文是记叙文。曾获普利策奖等多项大奖的美国歌手Bob Dylan,以其充满诗意的音乐作品又获得了2016年的诺贝尔文学奖,这也使他成为了名副其实的跨界之王。21cnjy.com
1. B 根据上文中的"It doesn’t seem that US singer Bob Dylan has much in common with literary masters like Ernest Hemingway and T.S. Eliot. But..."可知,此处指但是,2016年的诺贝尔文学奖把这些人永远地联 系在了一起。bond"使结合,建立关系",符合语境。advocate"支持";strike"突然想到,给(某人以……)印 象"。
2. A 根据上文的内容可知,2016年的诺贝尔文学奖的获得者是一位美国歌手,这是令人意外的事情。故此 处指的应是这一出人意料的宣布也激起了全球的争议。surprising"令人惊奇的,令人意外";expectant
"预期的";skeptical"怀疑的";irresponsible"不负责任的"。
3. C 参见上题解析。controversy"争议,争论,争辩",符合语境。aggression"侵略,侵犯";injustice"不公平,不 公正"。
6. C 根据破折号后的内容"a musician with the Nobel Prize in Literature"可知,此处说的是Dylan的新身份。 status"身份,社会地位",符合语境。ambition"抱负,雄心";achievement"成就";passion"激情,热情"。
7. A Dylan的新身份——获得诺贝尔文学奖的音乐人——在某种程度上挑战了常规。to a degree"在某种 程度上",符合语境。for the first time"首次,第一次";to the point"切题,中肯";from time to time"有时,偶尔"。
8. C 根据下文中的"Back in 2008, the Pulitzer Prize jury (评判委员会) Dylan a special citation(嘉 奖)..."可知,此处表示但是,这绝不是他因他的写作天赋而获得的首个奖项。talent"天赋",符合语境。 affection"喜爱";desire"渴望";request"要求"。
9. B 早在2008年,普利策奖评委会便因为他对流行音乐和美国文化的深远影响,他赋予其抒情作品超凡 的富有诗意的力量而授予了Dylan特别荣誉奖。award"授予",符合语境。issue"发行,发表,颁布";offer" 提供"。此题考生易错选D项。reward"奖励,奖赏,给以报酬",常用于sb. be rewarded with sth.或者 reward sb. (for sth./for doing sth.)结构中。而该空后接了双宾语,故可排除rewarded。
10. B 参见上题解析。influence"影响",符合语境。 attempt"尝试,努力";insight"了解,洞察力",常与介词into 连用;dependence"依赖"。
11. C 参见第9题解析。mark"赋予特征,给……确定性质"。attract"吸引";reflect"反映";impress"给……留 下深刻印象"。
12. A 在这一层面上,诺贝尔委员会现在做的只不过是巩固Dylan在文学界中不可动摇的地位的一种行 为。simply"只是,仅仅"。occasionally"偶尔,偶然";intentionally"有意地";hopefully"有希望地"。
13. A 参见上题解析。unshakable"不可动摇的";unnoticed"未被注意到的";unaffected"未受影响的 ";unavoidable"不可避免的"。
16. B 根据上下文可知,这里指没什么能比获得对手的称赞更值得令人敬佩的了,但Dylan做到了。否定词 和比较级连用表示最高级的含义,所以选nothing。
17. A 参见上题解析。下文中的"...a candidate for the prize..."亦是提示。competitor"竞争者";supporter"支持 者";objector"反对者";companion"同伴"。
18. C 根据上文中的"compositions of extraordinary poetic power" "winning praise..."可知,Dylan的歌和诗紧 密地联系在一起,这是值得赞赏的。admirable"令人钦佩的,值得赞扬的",符合语境。acceptable"可接 受的";reasonable"有道理的,合理的";unbelievable"令人难以置信的"。
19. D 参见上题解析。randomly"随意地";eventually"最终";accidentally"偶然地"。
20. C Dylan值得拥有此奖项。deserve"值得,应得",符合语境。treasure"珍爱";await"等待";require"需要"。

【语篇解的】 本文主要讲述了害羞这个问题虽不大,但有时却让人不舒服,因此要克服它。文中给了一些建议。
1. G 分析前两句 讲害羞不一定是问题,花点时间来适应新的人和环境是可以的。本空后的内容是有些 人希望不那么害羞,这样他们就可以享受社交活动和与他人相处。下面是一些克服害羞情绪的建 议。由此可推断出害羞虽不是大问题,便有人不喜欢,故要克服它。分析选项可知G项(但是害 羞让一些人不能像他们想的那样舒服)符合此意,故选G。
2. A 分析本空后的内容可知,和你身边的人练习一些社交行为,如闲聊等小事。分析选项可知A项(与 你认识的人在一起从小事开始)符合题意,且有词义的复现,如:与你熟悉的人一起(with people you know)就是(with people you feel most comfortable around)与你身边让你感觉舒服的人一起。 由此可推断出A符合题意,故选A。
4. F 第4小题所在的中心句是排练要说的话。要说因你害羞而回避的话时,进行社交活动前把你要说 的东西写出来在镜子前练习后。空后内容:非常自信的人做的事也极少有完美的,(可推测出“所 以你不要担心自己所说的不完美。”)分析选项,可知F项(不要担心是否你所说的东西不像你练 过的那样不完美)。且F项中有词perfect复现。故F项符合题意。故选F项。
5. D 第5小题所在段的中心句是“给自己一个机会”,空后叙述不要让担心自己做的不好别人的评价而阻 止你去尝试。分析选项可知D项(寻找一些小组活动,你可以和那些和你有同样兴趣的人在一起) 正是与本空内容相符。即给自己机会,寻找一些小组活动,你可以和那些和你有相同兴趣的人在 一起.。故选D。

8. C 【解析】推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Another novel,?Go Set A Watchman, was controversially published in July 2015 as a “sequel” to?Mockingbird, though it was later confirmed to be?Mockingbird’s first draft.”可推 知,Go Set A Watchman比Mockingbird写的要早。故选C。

1.George Bernard Shaw was interested in the way people spoke.
萧伯纳对人们说话的方式很感兴趣。
people spoke是定语从句,修饰the way。way作“方式”解,后接定语从句时,若引导词在从句中作状语,则引导词可用that或in which,that/in which也可省去。
?I don’t like the way he speaks.
=I don’t like the way that he speaks.
=I don’t like the way in which he speaks.
我不喜欢他说话的方式。

本句是由if引导的与过去事实相反的虚拟条件句,条件从句的谓语动词用“had+过去分词形式”,主句中的谓语动词用“would/could/should/might+have+过去分词”形式。
【名师点津】
虚拟语气在条件从句中的用法
在含有虚拟条件句的复合句中,主句和从句的谓语都要用虚拟语气,主要有以下几种情况:
从句
主句
与现在事实
相反
动词过去式(be的过去式用were)
would/could/should/might+动词原形
与过去事实
相反
had+过去分词
would/could/should/might+have+过去分词
与将来事实
可能相反
动词过去式/should+动词原形/were to+动词原形
would/could/should/might+动词原形

?If I had known her number,I would have called her.【版权所有:21教育】
如果我知道她的电话号码的话,我就给她打电话了。
?If it were to snow this evening,they would not go out.如果今晚下雪,他们将不出去了。
注意:
在书面语中,如果虚拟条件从句中有were,had或should,可以把if省略,而把这几个词放到主语之前,
构成倒装结构。有not时,not不用提前。
?Were it necessary,I might resign.如果必要的话,我可以辞职。
?Should they have patience,they could do the work well.
如果他们有耐心的话,他们就可能把这项工作做好。
【知识拓展】
当条件状语从句表示的行为和主句表示的行为所发生的时间不一致时,被称为“错综时间条件句”,动词的形式要根据它所表示的时间做出相应的调整。
?If you had followed my advice just now,you would be better now.
如果你刚才接受我的建议,你现在会好些。
?If you had studied hard before,you would work in the office now.
如果你以前努力学习,你现在就在办公室里工作了。

Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
This year’s four hundredth anniversary of the death of William Shakespeare is not just an opportunity to commemorate(纪念) one of the greatest playwrights of all time. It is a moment to celebrate the extraordinary ongoing influence of the great man.
①Shakespeare’s legacy is without parallel: his works translated into over 100 languages and studied by half the world’s schoolchildren. As one of his contemporaries, Ben Jonson said Shakespeare was "not of an age, but for all time". He lives today in our language, our culture and society — and through his enduring influence on education.
②Shakespeare played a critical role in shaping modern English and helping to make it the world’s language. The first major dictionary compiled(编纂) by Samuel Johnson drew on Shakespeare more than any other writer. Three thousand new words and phrases all first appeared in print in Shakespeare’s plays. Shakespeare pioneered innovative use of grammatical form and structure while the pre-eminence(卓越) of his plays also did much to standardize spelling and grammar.
③His words, his plots and his characters continue to inspire our culture and society. Nelson Mandela, while a prisoner on Robben Island, cherished a quote from The Tragedy of Julius Caesar which said, "Cowards die many times before their deaths. The valiant never taste of death but once." From Dickens and Goethe to Tchaikovsky, Verdi and Brahms; from Arthur Laurents’ West Side Story to the Hamlet-inspired title of Agatha Christie’s "The Mousetrap" — the longest-running theatre production in London’s West End today, Shakespeare’s influence is everywhere. And his original plays continue to entertain millions.
④But perhaps one of the most exciting legacies of Shakespeare is his capacity(能力) to educate. As we see from the outreach work of the Royal Shakespeare Company and Shakespeare’s Globe and the impact of pioneering British charities like the Shakespeare Schools Festival, studying and performing Shakespeare can help improve literacy, confidence and educational attainments.
Every day throughout the year, Britain is inviting you to join us in celebrating the life and legacy of William Shakespeare. On 5 January, Twelfth Night, we launched "Shakespeare Lives" — an exciting global programme of activities and events to highlight his enduring influence and extend the use of Shakespeare as an educational resource to advance literacy around the world.
The programme will run in more than seventy countries, led by the British Council and the GREAT Britain campaign. You can share your favourite moment of Shakespeare on social media, watch never-before-seen performances on stage, film and online, visit exhibitions, take part in workshops and debates, and access new Shakespearean educational resources to get a grip on the English language.
The Royal Shakespeare Company will tour China; Shakespeare’s Globe will perform across the world from Iraq to Denmark. Young people will reimagine Shakespeare in Zimbabwe. A social media campaign called "Play Your Part" will invite the next generation of creative talent to produce their own digital tribute to the Bard — and, in partnership with the British charity Voluntary Service Overseas, we will raise awareness of the huge challenge of global child illiteracy(文盲) and use Shakespeare to increase educational opportunities for children around the world.
Beyond the great gift of language, bringing our history to life, his ongoing influence on our culture and his ability to educate, there is just the immense power of Shakespeare to inspire people. From the most famous love story to the greatest tragedy, from the most powerful fantasy to the wittiest comedy, and from the most memorable speeches to his many legendary characters, in William Shakespeare we have one man, whose vast imagination, boundless creativity and instinct for humanity encompass the whole of the human experience as no one has before or since.
So, however you choose to play your part, please join us in this unique opportunity to celebrate the life and enduring legacy of this man, ensuring that, as he himself put it, "all the world’s a stage" and that through his legacy, truly, Shakespeare Lives.
1. Which is one of Shakespeare’s contributions to language?

B. Creating new spellings.
C. Simplifying grammar.

4. What can we know about "Shakespeare Lives"?

B. It has provided free education for many poor children.
C. It aims to impress more people with Shakespeare’s influence.www.21-cn-jy.com
D. It makes some of Shakespeare’s works public for the first time.
5. The underlined word "encompass" is closest in meaning to "________ ".

There’s nothing better than reading a good novel for switching off from the pressures of studying, particularly when doing so helps improve your general knowledge, deepen your cultural appreciation and sharpen your own English skills at the same time.
The following two masterpieces are my selection of "must-read" books for anyone who wants to gain a better understanding of English literature. As most of the great works that well-educated people are often expected to have read — known as the "canon" — were primarily written in the 19th century or a little after, these two also focus on that time period. Whether you’re a native English speaker or just learning, add these books to your reading list and make it your mission to read them before the year is out.
Wuthering Heights by Emily Bront?
This tale is a set text for GCSE and A-level English study, but away from the demands of the classroom it’s easier to enjoy its drama and intensity. Populated largely by characters whose incapacity to control their own emotions leads to violence and revenge(报仇), it’s a tale that covers two generations and two families. At the heart of the story is the mysterious "gypsy", Heathcliff, adopted as a shabby child into the Earnshaw family to live at Wuthering Heights. As he grows up, he becomes close to Mr. Earnshaw’s daughter Catherine, falling in love with her, only to be met with crushing(毁坏性的) disappointment when she marries Edgar Linton, a kind and gentle man from neighbouring Thrushcross Grange. Heathcliff runs away and disappears without a trace. Three years later, he returns, now a rich, educated man determined to take revenge.
Middlemarch by George Eliot
Middlemarch, subtitled "A Study of Provincial Life", is the story of the citizens of a Midlands town in the 1830s. Masterfully weaving together several plotlines, the novel records information about the fortunes of an interesting cast of characters, exploring their motivations, false beliefs and preoccupations(思虑). The remarkable thing about Middlemarch is the detail and realism with which George Eliot describes emotions. Feelings you thought were unique to you are described here in a way that could be describing your own thoughts. It’s one of the reasons why Middlemarch has been described by novelists Martin Amis and Julian Barnes as one of the greatest English novels ever written; read it and you’ll soon find yourself agreeing with them.
7. What does the underlined word "incapacity" probably mean?
A. Refusal. B. Inability.
C. Prejudice. D. Misunderstanding.
8. What may make Middlemarch unusual or surprising to people?
A. Its lively description of the country life.
B. The skillful mix of its different threads of plot.
C. The coexistence of its several irrelevant plotlines.
D. The way Eliot reveals its characters’ inner feelings.
9. Why does the author mention Martin Amis and Julian Barnes?
A. To state their attitude towards Middlemarch.
B. To show their contribution to Middlemarch.
C. To prove Middlemarch is a book worth reading.
D. To stress the influence Middlemarch has on them.
10. What is the best title for the passage?
A. What are the advantages of reading?
B. Should students read literary works?
C. English novels everyone should read
D. Tips on choosing suitable reading materials
Ⅱ. 七选五型阅读理解

A
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。在莎士比亚去世400周年之际英国将在全球举办一系列活动来纪念这位为全人类作出巨大贡献的伟人。【来源:21cnj*y.co*m】
3. B【解析】考查推理判断。根据第四段中的"His words, his plots and his characters continue to inspire our culture and society"可知,莎士比亚对我们的文化和社会产生了很大的影响;下文列举的"from Arthur Laurents’ West Side Story to the Hamlet-inspired title of Agatha Christie’s ‘The Mousetrap’"则是具体体现,这两部作品 的创作也受到了莎士比亚的启发,即莎士比亚对其他作家也有广泛的影响力。故选B项。
4. C【解析】考查细节理解。根据第六段中的"we launched ‘Shakespeare Lives’...to highlight his enduring influence and extend the use of Shakespeare as an educational resource to advance literacy around the world" 可知,该活动旨在让莎士比亚的影响力深入人心。考生易误选D项。第七段中提到了观看前所未有的舞 台表演,但这并不是说会首次公开展示莎士比亚的一些作品,故可排除D项。
5. B【解析】考查词义猜测。根据倒数第二段中的"From the most famous love story to the greatest tragedy, from the most powerful fantasy to the wittiest comedy, and from the most memorable speeches to his many legendary characters"可知,莎士比亚的作品涉及面很广,他广阔的想象力,无限的创作力和对人性的透彻理 解涵盖了人类的所有阅历,达到了"前无古人,后无来者"的境界。画线词意为"涵盖,包括"。
6. D【解析】考查作者意图。通读全文可知,本文由莎士比亚的影响力入手引出了号召人们参与为纪念莎士 比亚而举办的一系列活动的主题。最后一段中的"please join us in this unique opportunity to celebrate the life and enduring legacy of this man"是关键提示。考生易误选B项。虽然本文由阐述莎士比亚的影响力 入手,第二段至第五段集中体现了莎士比亚在许多领域的广泛影响力,但根据下文作者花大篇幅介绍的 活动Shakespeare Lives可知,作者提及莎士比亚的影响力其实是为了号召人们参加为纪念莎士比亚而举 办的一系列活动,故可排除B项。
B
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文,简单介绍了《呼啸山庄》和《米德尔马契》这两本书的内容及其特点。
8. D【解析】考查细节理解。根据最后一段中的"The remarkable thing about Middlemarch is the detail and realism with which George Eliot describes emotions"可知, Middlemarch的非凡之处在于:George Eliot在描述情感 时的细致入微和对现实主义手法的运用。故选D。
9. C【解析】考查推理判断。根据最后一段中的"It’s one of the reasons why Middlemarch has been described by novelists Martin Amis and Julian Barnes as one of the greatest English novels ever written"可知, Martin Amis 和 Julian Barnes认为这本书是最棒的英文小说之一。由此可知,作者提及这两个人是为了说明
Middlemarch是一本值得阅读的好书。故选C。
10. C【解析】考查主旨要义。纵观全文尤其是第二段中的"The following two masterpieces are my selection of ‘must-read’ books for anyone who wants to gain a better understanding of English literature""add these books to your reading list and make it your mission to read them before the year is out"可知,本文主要介绍了 想更了解英国文学的人必须阅读的文学名著《呼啸山庄》和《米德尔马契》的内容及其特点。故C项 作本文标题最佳。本题易误选A项。考生看到文章的第一段内容"There’s nothing better than reading a good novel... helps improve your general knowledge, deepen your cultural appreciation and sharpen your own English skills at the same time"就想当然地以为下文亦是对阅读的好处的介绍,但是文章第一段只是为了 引出作者想要介绍的话题,并不是文章内容的总结,故可排除A项。
Ⅱ. 七选五型阅读理解
【语篇解读】一些最常见的高中年级所犯的错误。
1. E【解析】根据下句:你最好设法避免这些常见的错误。可知E. Almost every high school senior makes some mistakes.(几乎每个高中学生都犯一些错误。)符合题意。
4. F【解析】根据上文:这些都是令人兴奋的未来可能性,但是别忘了这里和现在。可知花太多时间做白日 梦会严重限制未来的计划。故选F。
5. G【解析】根据下文:这种帮助可以是额外的办公时间的形式……可知上文的意思是:他们中的许多人是 足够的好而提供额外的帮助。this/extra是关键词。故选G。

K真题
1. C【解析】句意:我们给我们的学生们提供极好的教育,作为回报,我们期待我们的学生们努力学习。A. 平均起来,一般说来;B. 最多,充其量;C. 作为汇报;D. 毕竟,终究。根据句意故选C。
2. B【解析】虚拟语气中,be动词统一用were;虚拟语气的省略形式主要是把if省略,同时把were/should/had 提前,即Were /Should/ Had I...,故选B。句意:要不是老师们的支持,该生是无法克服她自己的 困难的。
1. C【解析】approach靠近,接近;wrestle摔跤,斗争;compromise妥协,和解,让步;communicate 交流。句意:他并容易妥协,但是对于正义的事业,他愿意接受任何建设性的建议。根据句意可知C 项正确。
2. A【解析】in return回报;in common共同的;in turn轮流;in place在合适的位置。句意:当James住在 这个村里的时候,他无私地把他的任何东西都分给村民,没有向村民要过回报。根据前面的单词 unselfishly无私地,可知他这样做不图回报。故选A。
3. D【解析】in view of在……眼里;in need of需要;in touch with和……接触; in harmony with与……和 谐相处。这四个短语后面都应该接名词。句意:人的生活是自然的一部分,因此,我们生存下来的唯 一的方法就是与自然和谐相处。根据句意,故选D。
4. B【解析】考查让步状语从句。I have to give a speech句中有主语、谓语和宾语,可知不能选whatever和 whoever,又however后面跟副词或形容词,故选whenever。句意:不论什么时候我演讲,在开始之前 我都特别紧张。
5. A【解析】本题考查错综时间虚拟语气。句意:如果不是因为前几天他的邀请,我现在就不会在这里了。 主句是对现在情况的虚拟,if从句是对过去情况的假设,故从句要用过去完成时。

4.3 Grammar & Writing
Grammar: 过去分词作状语
过去分词作状语,进一步说明谓语动词的动作和状态,即动作发生时的背景或状况。其逻辑主语通常是句子的主语,且与主语之间构成逻辑上的“动宾关系”或在逻辑上构成“系表结构”。过去分词短语在句中担任条件状语,原因状语以及时间状语时,通常放在句首;担任伴随状语或结果状语时,通常放在句末;担任方式状语时,一般位于句末,有时也可位于句首;担任让步状语时,一般位于句首,有时也可位于句末。
一、过去分词担任状语时的语法功能
1. 原因状语
?Caught in a heavy rain,he was all wet.因为淋了一场大雨,所以他全身湿透了。
?Frightened by the noise in the night,the girl didn’t dare sleep in her room.
被夜晚的响声惊吓,那姑娘不敢睡在她的房间里了。
2. 时间状语
?Asked why he did it,the monitor said it was his duty.当被问及为何要做这件事时,班长说这是他的职责。21教育名师原创作品
?Approached in the dark the bulbs looked lonely and purposeless.在黑暗走近时,那些电灯显得孤单而无意义。
3. 条件状语和假设状语
?Grown in rich soil,these seeds can grow fast.如果种在肥沃的土壤里,这些种子能长得很快。
?Given better attention,the accident could have been avoided.要是多加注意,那次事故就可以避免了。
4. 方式或伴随状语
?Surrounded by his students,the professor sat there cheerfully.那位教授在学生们的簇拥下,兴高采烈地坐在那儿。21*cnjy*com
?He stood there silently,moved to tears.他静静地站在那里,被感动得热泪盈眶。
5. 让步状语
?Beaten by the police,sent to jail,Gandhi invented the principle of nonviolent resistance.
尽管受警察的殴打,被投入监牢,甘地却首创了非暴力抵抗的原则。
?Defeated again,we did not lose heart.尽管再次被击败,但我们没有灰心。
6. 分词的独立结构
(1)分词作状语时,要特别注意其逻辑主语必须和谓语动词的主语一致。否则,分词必须有自己的主语,这种带主语
的分词被称为分词的独立结构,或叫独立主格,在句中作状语,表示时间、原因、条件等。如果主语和动词是被
动关系,就要用过去分词;如果是主动关系,则用现在分词。
?The project finished,they had a two weeks’ leave.
完成那个计划后,他们休两周假。
?Weather permitting,we will go out for a picnic.
天气允许的话,我们要出去野餐。
(2)独立结构有时也可以用“with/without+名词(或代词的宾格)+分词”的结构,表示伴随状况。其中with/without可
以省略。
?They sat there silently,(with) their eyes fixed on the lake.
他们静静地坐在那里,眼睛看着湖面。
(3)有一些表达方式是固定的,其分词短语的主语可以与主句的主语不一致。
?Judging from previous experience,he will be late.
根据以往的经验来看,他得迟到。
?Considering he’s only just started,he knows quite a lot about it.
考虑到他只是刚刚开始,他对此的了解已经不少了。
二、与状语从句的相互转换
1. 过去分词短语作时间状语,可转换为when,while或after等引导的状语从句。
?Seen from the top of the hill,the park looks more beautiful.【来源:21·世纪·教育·网】
→When it is seen from the top of the hill,the park looks more beautiful.
从山上往下看,这座公园看起来更加漂亮。
2. 作条件状语,可转换为if,once或unless等引导的状语从句。
?Given more time,she would certainly have done much better.21*cnjy*com
→If she had been given more time,she would certainly have done much better.
如果有更多时间的话,她一定会干得更好些。
3. 作原因状语,可转换为as,since或because等引导的状语从句。
?The children,exhausted,fell asleep at once.
→As the children were exhausted they fell asleep at once.
由于劳累,孩子们很快就睡着了。
4. 作让步状语,可转换为although,though或even if等引导的状语从句。
?Although exhausted by the climb,we continued our journey.
→Although we were exhausted by the climb,we continued our journey.
我们虽然爬得很累,但我们仍然继续我们的旅程。
5. 作方式状语,如有连词as if,就转换为as if引导的方式状语从句;若无连词,则转换为并列结构。
?He began to cry as if bitten by a snake.
→He began to cry as if he was bitten by a snake.
他大叫起来,好像被蛇咬了。
6. 作伴随状语,一般转换为并列结构。
?Aunt Wu came in,followed by her daughter.
→Aunt Wu came in,and(she)was followed by her daughter.
吴大娘走进来,(她)后面跟着她的女儿。
【知识拓展】
1. 现在分词与过去分词作状语在“逻辑”方面的差异:
过去分词作状语时,过去分词所表示的动作与句子主语之间通常构成逻辑上的动宾关系。
现在分词作状语时,现在分词所表示的动作与句子主语之间构成逻辑上的主谓关系。
?Given more attention,the trees could have grown better.如果对这些树多关心一些,它们本来会长得更好。
?Not knowing what to do,he went to his parents for help.由于不知如何办是好,他去找父母帮忙。
2. 现在分词与过去分词作状语在“时间”方面的差异:
过去分词所表示的动作发生在谓语动作之前,或表示一种状态,与谓语动作同时发生或存在。现在分词的一般式表示的动作与谓语动作同时发生或在说话时正在进行;现在分词的完成式(having done)表示发生在谓语动作之前的一个“主动”动作;现在分词的完成式的被动式(having been done)表示发生在谓语动作之前的一个“被动”动作,常常和表示次数的短语以及时间段(for短语)连用,此时不能被过去分词所替换。在其他情况下通常被过去分词所替换,从而使句式更简洁。21·cn·jy·com
?Written in a hurry,this article was not so good!因为写得匆忙,这篇文章不是很好!
?Reading carefully,he found something he had not known before.他仔细读书时,发现了一些从前不知道的东西。
?Having been discussed several times,the decision was finally made.进行了几次讨论之后,终于作出了决定。
3. 部分过去分词因来源于系表结构,作状语时不表示 “被动关系”,其前不用being。这样的过去分词及短语常见的有:lost(陷入某种状态);seated(坐);hidden(躲);stationed(驻扎);lost/absorbed in (沉溺于);dressed in(穿着);tired of(厌烦)等。
?Lost/Absorbed in deep thought,he didn’t hear the sound.因为沉溺于思考之中,所以他没听到那个声音。
?Faced with difficulties,we must try to overcome them.在遇到困难的时候,我们必须设法克服。
4. 过去分词用作状语时,前面往往带有when,if,while,though,even if等连词,这样就能使过去分词所表示的意义更加明确。这种带有连词的过去分词结构通常可看作是一种省略句,句中省略的部分总是“主语+be的相应变化形式”,省略的主语通常与主句的主语相同。
?When given a medical examination,you should keep calm.当你做体格检查时要保持镇定。
?Although exhausted by the climb,he continued his journey.他虽然爬得很累,但他仍继续前进。
5. 分词(短语) 作状语时,其逻辑上的主语要与句子的主语保持一致;否则分词(短语)就要有自己的逻辑主语(用名词或代词的主格来表示)。这种结构称为独立主格结构。独立主格结构常放在句首。表示时间、条件、原因时,其作用分别相当于一个时间、条件、原因状语从句。表示伴随方式时,相当于一个并列句。
?The signal given,the bus started.信号一发出,汽车就开动了。
?The football match(being) over,crowds of people poured out into the street.
足球赛一结束,人群便涌到大街上。
6. 不定式与分词担任状语的差异:
(1)不定式在句中可以担任目的状语,结果状语(出乎意料的结果)以及原因状语(通常后置)。
?To make himself heard,he raised his voice.为了被听清楚,他提高了嗓门。
?He hurried home,only to find his money stolen.他匆忙赶到家中,结果却发现钱被盗了。
All of us are surprised to see his rapid progress.他的进步,我们都很吃惊。
(2)分词在句中可以担任除目的状语以外的其他形式的状语。
?Seen from the top of the hill,the town is beautiful.从山上看,这座城镇很美。
?Defeated,he remained a popular boxer.虽然被击败了,但他仍然是一位受欢迎的拳击手。
?The guests entered the office,accompanied by the manager.客人们在经理的陪同下进了办公室。www-2-1-cnjy-com

Writing: 如何写英文戏剧
戏剧作品是一种文学形式,同小说一样也有plot(情节),character(人物),setting(背景),theme(主题)和style(风格),但其表现形式却与小说不同。
戏剧一般分幕(acts)和场(scenes)。幕是剧本写作和演出的一个完整段落,按剧情发展的时间、地点划分。场则是幕中的部分。有的剧只分幕,不分场。
剧本故事完全在角色的直接对话中展开,读者要通过对话的内容及语言风格(也包括一些简单的动作描述)去揣摩每个人物的性格、心理、教育程度和社会背景等等。其次,读者还要从对话中分析人物之间的关系或冲突,进而推断出作者的写作目的。因此,写英文戏剧必须仔细琢磨每个人物的每一句话,不但要注意每句话的表面意义,还要注意其所展示的剧中人物的某个特点和蕴含的社会意义。
1.注意包括剧本的三要素:舞台说明、戏剧冲突、人物台词。
舞台说明:舞台说明帮助导演和演员掌握剧情,为演出提供相关说明。
戏剧冲突:剧中必须有一个矛盾冲突(问题)供人物去解决,剧中所有的事件都与该矛盾冲突(问题)有关。
人物台词:是剧中人物的语言,即鲜明生动的人物对话。它是性格化的,是富有动作性的,因为人物 的语言是同他/她的行动联系在一起的。同时,人物的语言和动作必须合乎各自的身份和特 征。台词的表现形式有:对话、独白、旁白、内白(在后台说话)、潜台词等等。
2.时态:通常情况下,要用一般现在时。
3.注意剧本的写作格式。剧中人物的名字要全部大写,位于对白之前,后接冒号。舞台说明用斜体,置于
括号中。

(Eliza is still sobbing,rushes from the room)
CP:Now Henry,couldn't you have been kinder to that poor girl after all the effort she made?
【名师点评】
1.本文写了戏剧的一场,在这短短的一段中舞台说明明确,通过口语化的台词展示了Eliza向Higgins学习
的片段,想象比较合理,符合戏剧写作的格式。
2.舞台说明通过very slowly and carefully too,in tears very slowly and with emphasis,again with emphasis,
beginning to cry等,充分体现了Eliza在第一次学习发音时的小心,因发音不对受到训斥时的难过、委屈,
再次练习时的努力,谨慎等学习心态的变化,符合人物的身份、特点。
