Unit 5 Section Ⅲ
Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
As soon as you are on your way to Eastern Europe,here are a few tips on what you should pack.In general,pack lightly,with only the most basic clothes.People dress casually(随便地)in Eastern Europe,so you don’t need to bring along your smartest clothing.
At the risk of going against our own advice by weighing down your luggage,we suggest you consider bringing along the following things,which we found particularly useful in Eastern Europe.
Batteries: If your camera,flash,or other appliances run on batteries,bring enough supply along.Certain types of batteries don’t exist in Eastern Europe,and those that do often don’t last very long.
Calculators:Many travellers find it useful to figure out foreign exchange rates on a calculator.We suggest a credit card calculator that fits into your wallet or purse.
Cash:We have found it good to have a supply of small unit US bills($1 and $ 5)to use in hard-currency (硬通货)stores,to buy international train tickets,etc..The hard-currency stores never seem to have the right change,and thus you may lose out without some “pretty cash” in hand.
Electric Current Adapters: If you bring any appliances,remember that the electricity in Eastern Europe uses 220 volts
C.,not the standard 110 volts of North America.A 110-volt appliance will soon burn out when attached to an uncharged 220-volt plug. Get in touch with the Franzus Company,352 Park Ave,south,New York,NY10010(tel.212/889-5850),and ask for their booklet,“Foreign Electricity Is No Dark Secret”.
Language Tools:One of Europe’s big challenges is communicating with the local people,since their language is so different from our own.To help overcome difficulties,you might buy phrase books before you go—you won’t find them useful once you are in Eastern Europe.
If you are interested in learning an Eastern European language in more detail,we recommend the tape course produced by Audio Forum.In each course you listen to native speakers on a tape and follow along in a textbook.You can ask Audio Forum for their catalog(目录)at Broad St.Guilford,CT 06437 (tel.toll free 800,/243-1234).
Money Belts: A money belt is especially helpful when you have many documents(证件)to carry around(as you always do in Eastern Europe).The best one we found is made by Eagle Creek Travel Gear,143 Cedros Ave.(P.O.box 651),Solona Beach,CA92075 (tel.619/755- 9399,or toll free 800/874-9925)outside California.
Traveller’s Checks:These are necessary.Bring your traveller’s checks in small to medium unit ($10,$ 20 or $ 50)to change a little bit at a time,so as not to be left with a lot of local money.To be on the safe side,be sure to copy down the check numbers in two places,just in case something happens to the checks.
文章大意:本文作者给了我们一些去东欧旅游时应带什么东西的建议。
1.The writer suggests that when you go to Eastern Europe,you only need to bring your __ B__.
A.smart clothing B.everyday clothing
C.formal suit D.sportswear
解析:细节理解题。题干指“作者建议当你去东欧时,你只需要带你的……”。本题从文章第一段中的“the most basic clothes”便可得知B项为正确答案。
2.Which of the following mentioned in the passage is about money matters? __A__
A.Cash and traveller’s checks.
B.Money belts,language and tools.
C.Cash and electric current adapters.
D.Batteries and other electric appliances.
解析:细节理解题。只有选项A“现金和旅行者的支票”,都是有关钱的事项。
3.Eagle Creek Travel Gear is a company producing __D__.
A.calculators B.tapes
C.electric current adapters D.money belts
解析:细节理解题。由Money Belts一段的前两句可知。
4.The passage is probably taken from __C__.
A.a bank notice B.a holiday advertisement
C.a traveller’s guide D.an electrical safety booklet
解析:主旨大意题。由本文第一段可知作者在给我们一些去东欧旅游的建议,通篇短文都是在讲述旅行方面的内容,故C项为正确答案。
B
When the time comes to send the kids to college,some Asian parents may do their budget in Malaysian money.Malaysia wants to become a regional center for higher education.“We’re introducing a bill in October to allow the University of London and other well-known foreign universities to come in and establish full-scale branch campuses,” says Fong Chan Onn, the deputyminister with responsibility for Chinese education.The University of London will be opening a branch near Kuala Lumpur.Fong says Australian institutions have expressed interest.“Even one of the Japanese universities is interested, ”he adds.
Malaysia hopes the imports will solve several problems.Local universities have limited places and many are reserved for Malays and other native groups.Ethnic Chinese and Indians often have no choice but to study overseas—or not go to university at all.“The country has been spending billions on the thousands of students who go abroad for their higher education.”says Penang state assemblyman Kang Chin Seng.“The figure is almost equal to all the revenue we earn from tin mines.The government itself sends scholars(奖学金获得者)to other countries.Many could be placed in the foreign campuses here,saving government funds.”
As an education center, Malaysia can even make money.“The slogan is that one foreign student studying in Malaysia is worth 4×365 tourist days,”says Fong.Kuala Lumpur is eyeing students from ASEAN countries,where it is difficult to be admitted into local universities.Will foreign students come knocking? Mahathir Mohamad says Malaysia will be offering “quality education at reduced cost”.As for the local institutions, Fong believes they will rise to the challenge.Malaysia will know it has become a regional center for education when its home-grown schools can rival foreign universities as centers of excellence.
5.What must be done before foreign universities can open branch campuses in Malaysia? __A__
A.A law allowing them to do so must be passed.
B.Education fees must be the same in all universities.
C.There must be enough applications from foreign students.
D.Malaysian scholars must finish their education overseas.
解析:细节理解题。根据第一段中的“We’re Introducing a bill in October to allow the University of London and other well-Known foreign universities to come in and establish full-scale branch campuses”可知答案为A项,bill和law同义。
6.The underlined word“revenue” in the second paragraph means __B__.
A.taxes B.money
C.costs D.budget
解析:词义猜测题。根据后面的“we earn from tin mines”猜测,revenue相当于money。
7.What does Kang suggest Malaysia do with Malaysian students who have won scholarships? __D__
A.Send them to study in homegrown universities.
B.Make them pay back the scholarships.
C.Allow them to study in foreign universities.
D.Have them study in foreign campuses in Malaysia.
解析:推理判断题。根据第二段最后一句“Many could be placed in the foreign campuses here,saving government funds.”可以推断:马来西亚不必派奖学金获得者去国外,可以直接送他们去马来西亚的外国学院学习。
8.Students from ASEAN countries are expected to study in Malaysia because __B__.
A.they will be near their parents
B.education there will be good and affordable
C.all of the subjects will be taught in Chinese
D.the educational quality will be as good as the University of London
解析:细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Mahathir Mohamad says Malaysia will be offering’quality at reduced cost’”可知.马来西亚将会提供质优价廉的教育。其中reduced cost可以理解为affordable cost。

In the village where I grew up, everyone knew an old man,who lived a simply life and spent all his time painting.The villagers used to admiring his works and he often gave his paintings to his friends.Whenever he was offered money, he would not take them.He said he painted for a pleasure.He once gave one of his paintings to my father, whom actually wasn’t interested in art.Years later I found it in our old house.By that time the old man has died and people started to recognize his paintings as great works of art, which was worth lots of money.An art gallery made me an offer of $5,000 for this painting and I nearly sold it, so then I decided not to do that.It always reminds me my childhood and of the old man who didn’t really want to make money by paint.
答案:
In the village where I grew up, everyone knew an old man,who lived a life and spent all his time painting.The villagers used to his works and he often gave his paintings to his friends.Whenever he was offered money, he would not take .He said he painted for a pleasure.He once gave one of his paintings to my father, actually wasn’t interested in art.Years later I found it in our old house.By that time the old man died and people started to recognize his paintings as great works of art, which worth lots of money.An art gallery made me an offer of $5,000 for this painting and I nearly sold it, then I decided not to do that.It always reminds me my childhood and of the old man who didn’t really want to make money by .
解析:
1.考查形容词。此处为形容词作定语,修饰名词。故用simple。
2.考查固定搭配。used to do sth.过去常常做某事。
3.考查代词。此处指代前面的money,是不可数名词,故用代词it。
4.考查冠词。此处pleasure是不可数名词。for pleasure为了取乐。故去掉a。
5.考查定语从句。此处为非限制性定语从句,从句中缺少主语,先行词为my father,故用who。
6.考查时态。此处By that time为过去的时间,故用过去完成时。
7.考查主谓一致。此处为非限制性定语从句,which指代前面的works,是复数,故把was改为were。
8.考查连词。此处为转折关系,故用but。
9.考查固定搭配。remind sb.of sth.使某人想起某事。
10.考查动名词。介词by后面接动名词形式。
Ⅲ.书面表达
假定你是李华,你的英国笔友David下周三将来你所在的城市旅游,但你有事无法去机场接他。请你给他发一封电子邮件,要点如下:

参考范文:
Dear David,
I am very happy to know that you are coming to visit my city next Wednesday.
Having kept in touch with each other by writing for years, I can’t wait to see you.However, I am sorry to tell you that I can’t meet you at the airport that day. My sister fell ill and was taken to the hospital, so I have to take care of her there. But don’t worry.I’ve asked my best friend, Li Lei, to pick you up and take you to the booked hotel instead.What’s more,I have recommended some places of interest in the attachment, which I think you may be interested in.Of course you can also visit other tourist attractions by yourself.Meanwhile, I will call you the moment I am available.
I’m expecting your arrival and hope you will enjoy your stay here sincerely.
Yours,
Li Hua
