文档简介


古罗马帝国不仅仅在政治上强大、 版图上辽阔, 它所创造的古罗马文化在哲学、文学、建筑等方面, 也是全人类巨大的精神财富, 是世界古典文化中的瑰宝。
Ancient Rome is that time in history when the Roman Empire existed.At its peak, the empire included most of Europe, northern Africa, and the Middle East.The Romans were known for their army, architecture, and government.The empire existed from about 100 B.C.to 500 A.D.
Although many people talk about the “rise and fall” of the Roman Empire, others focus on how the civilization changed over time.Both positives(i.e., art and architecture) and negatives(i.e., slavery and cruelty) can be identified in the culture throughout the history of Ancient Rome.
The first settlements were established around 753 B.C.At the height of the empire around 200 A.D., the empire covered 2.5 million square miles.The Western Empire fell in 476 A.D.and the Eastern Empire lasted until 1453.
Based on strict organization and centralized(中央集权的) control, the empire was connected by a huge network of roads with the city of Rome in the center.Each town was planned in exactly the same way including a system of streets, running water, and sewers(污水管).The Forum at the center of town was surrounded by shops, temples, and government buildings.A strong army defended and expanded the empire.The soldiers belonged to legions(军队) of about 5,000 people.They were highly trained and well-equipped with armor, shields, spears, and swords.A well-organized civil service system governed the people.Roman history contains many famous figures including Augustus, the first emperor, Julius Caesar, Caligula, and Nero.
The Romans had many festivals and rituals(仪式) for events such as childbirth, marriage, and funerals.Like Greek culture, Roman culture was known for its mythology.The Romans enjoyed food, baths, and all kinds of entertainment.

失落的文明
第一天,7月15日
能获得这次旅行的机会我感到很幸运。现在我们在意大利,明天我们将游览庞贝。下周我们会飞往中国并打算去楼兰,那是沙漠中的一座被誉为“中国庞贝”的古城。庞贝和楼兰都是很久以前失落的文明。
第二天,7月16日
今天上午我们听了一场有关庞贝的讲座。这座城市创建于公元前8世纪。公元前89年,罗马人占领了庞贝。后来庞贝成了一座繁华的城市。离该城不远处有一座火山。公元79年8月24日,火山喷发,火山岩浆,火山灰及岩石喷涌而出覆盖了周围的村庄。火山喷发持续了两天。很多人被活埋了,整个城市也被掩埋。多么不幸啊!
第三天,7月17日
今天我见到了罗马古城庞贝,它就跟两千年前一模一样。多令人惊奇啊!这座城市多年来一直被人们遗忘,直到18世纪时一个农民发现了一块刻有文字的石头。人们开始在这一区域挖掘寻宝,这造成了很大的破坏。因此在1860年,政府将这一区域保护了起来,便于保存和研究。
When I walked around the city, I saw streets just as they had been,with stepping stones along the road( so you did not have to step in the mud(on rainy days! I saw several houses which were decorated( with wall paintings(. I also saw the people who had been buried alive. It turns out that after the ash covered the people who failed to flee(the city, their bodies nearly completely broke down and disappeared, leaving empty spaces in the ash. Years later, researchers( were able to use these empty spaces to produce true -to -life( figures of the people who had died in the disaster(. You can see them today in Pompeii, in the same places where the people fell(. The volcano is still there, but looks very quiet now. It’s hard to imagine(how this peaceful volcano destroyed( the whole city(!
Day 10,24 July
Finally, we arrived in Loulan after several days of travelling. This commercial( city was busy and wealthy( about 2,000 years ago. It was a stopping point on the famous Silk Road between the East and the West. It is believed to have been gradually( covered over( by sandstorms( from AD 200 to AD 400.(I am so excited to be here!,when 引导时间状语从句;as 引导方式状语从句。

本句使用了“It is believed to do sth.”句型,常可转换为“It is believed that...”。
当我在城中漫步时,我看到保持原样的街道,沿路都有垫脚石,这样下雨天你就不用在泥泞中行走了!我看到了几处装饰着壁画的房子。我也看到了被活埋的人。原来,火山灰覆盖了没能逃离城市的人,他们的身体几乎全部烧化消失了,只留下火山灰里的人形空当。多年之后,研究者们能够利用这些人形空当制作出逼真的遇难者轮廓。你现在可以在庞贝看到他们,就在他们原来倒下的同样的位置。火山还在那里,但现在看起来非常平静。很难想象这座平静的火山是如何毁掉整座城市的!
第十天,7月24日
经过好几天的旅程,我们终于抵达了楼兰。这座商业城市在大约两千年前也曾繁华过。它是连接东西方著名的丝绸之路上的停靠点。人们相信,从公元200年到公元400年,它已被沙尘暴逐渐吞没。能在这里我很兴奋!
Day 11,25 July
A scholar from the local cultural(institute(,Professor Zhang, told us that around the year 1900 the European explorer Sven Hedin discovered the ruins(of the Loulan Kingdom. Sven found the remains( of buildings buried beneath( the sand(, together with( a lot of treasures, including coins, painted( pots(, material( such as silk, documents( and wall paintings. When we went to the city, we saw the city walls, palaces, temples, workshops( and towers. We found the ruins most interesting(.

第十一天,7月25日
来自当地文化研究所的一位学者张教授告诉我们,大约在1900年,来自欧洲的探险家斯文·海定发现了楼兰王国的遗迹。斯文发现了埋藏于沙子下面的建筑物遗迹以及许多宝藏,包括钱币、彩绘罐、像丝绸这样的布料、文献以及壁画。当我们到这座城市时,我们看到了城墙、宫殿、庙宇、作坊及高塔。我们发现楼兰废墟非常有趣。有一条古老的供水系统贯穿市中心。这片沙漠曾经是大树成荫的绿洲,但这些树被砍倒了,导致楼兰这座城市被沙子埋没——多遗憾啊!

The day after Thanksgiving is the start of the holiday shopping season. Thanksgiving is always on a Thursday, so the day after is a Friday. This day has come to be known as Black Friday. It has been the busiest shopping day of the year since 2005.
Most stores offer great deals on Black Friday. They open their doors very early in the morning. They try to attract shoppers with big discounts. Some products like TVs are much cheaper than usual. Stores may even lose money on these products. They hope that shoppers will buy gifts for other people while they are in the store.
Black Friday is a great time to get good deals. The problem is that there are not enough low-priced products to go around. Each store may only have a few.People stand in long lines to get such great deals, but not everyone who wants one will get one. Some people look crestfallen as they leave.
Some Black Friday events have been violent. Large crowds have trampled(踩踏) workers. Fights have broken out over toys or people cutting in line. But most Black Friday events are safe and fun. Still, if you plan on going, expect large crowds.
The name “Black Friday” was first used in Philadelphia in the 1950s. Police officers called this day Black Friday because of the heavy traffic it drew. In the 1960s, stores tried to rename the day “Big Friday”. It did not stick. The name “Black Friday” continued to be used across the country. It seems that it is here to stay.
Now people all over the country take part in Black Friday. It is even spreading to other parts of the world. Stores have held Black Friday events in the U.K., Australia, and Brazil since 2012. In Costa Rica Black Friday is known as “Viernes Negro”.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一个重要的购物节日——“黑色星期五”。
4.Why do some stores sell TVs at low prices?
A.They are short of money.
B.They want to sell out old products.
C.They want people to buy other things.
D.They want people to enjoy their shopping.
C 解析:细节理解题。根据第二段中的They hope that shoppers will buy gifts for other people while they are in the store.可知,有些商店赔本卖电视是希望顾客能够买其他产品。
5.What does the underlined word“crestfallen” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A.Disappointed.       B.Confused.
C.Surprised. D.Excited.
A 解析:词义猜测题。根据第三段中的but not everyone who wants one will get one可知,没有买到廉价商品的顾客只能失望地离开。
6.How did the first Black Friday get its name?
A.It led to violent events.
B.It caused a lot of traffic.
C.It attracted large crowds.
D.It wasted too much money.
B 解析:细节理解题。根据第五段中的Police officers called this day Black Friday because of the heavy traffic it drew.可知,黑色星期五的命名与那天的交通拥堵有关。

A.It has been celebrated as an old tradition.
B.It is a national holiday of the United States.
C.It has become an international shopping holiday.
D.It is called “Viernes Negro” in the English world.

The knowledge you can get from education can be used in leading revolutions or perhaps an office team. If you know the world, you will gain confidence. A great education will make sure that your skills will be enhanced and that you get to gain a level of confidence to use these skills.
In today’s world, you may be cheated easily since people can take advantage of those who are not well-educated.

【解题导语】 习惯成自然。一次放弃便可能成为终生的习惯,因此应该像迈克乔丹那样永不言弃,走向辉煌。
1.the 解析:考查冠词。all the time 是固定短语,意为“一直”。
2.naturally 解析:考查副词。所填词修饰动词come,因此需要用其副词形式。
3.will catch 解析:考查动词的时态。这里是表示将来的事情,因此用一般将来时。
4.thinking 解析:考查非谓语动词。without是介词,后接动名词作宾语。

The day after Thanksgiving is the start of the holiday shopping season. Thanksgiving is always on a Thursday, so the day after is a Friday. This day has come to be known as Black Friday. It has been the busiest shopping day of the year since 2005.
Most stores offer great deals on Black Friday. They open their doors very early in the morning. They try to attract shoppers with big discounts. Some products like TVs are much cheaper than usual. Stores may even lose money on these products. They hope that shoppers will buy gifts for other people while they are in the store.
Black Friday is a great time to get good deals. The problem is that there are not enough low-priced products to go around. Each store may only have a few.People stand in long lines to get such great deals, but not everyone who wants one will get one. Some people look crestfallen as they leave.
Some Black Friday events have been violent. Large crowds have trampled(踩踏) workers. Fights have broken out over toys or people cutting in line. But most Black Friday events are safe and fun. Still, if you plan on going, expect large crowds.
The name “Black Friday” was first used in Philadelphia in the 1950s. Police officers called this day Black Friday because of the heavy traffic it drew. In the 1960s, stores tried to rename the day “Big Friday”. It did not stick. The name “Black Friday” continued to be used across the country. It seems that it is here to stay.
Now people all over the country take part in Black Friday. It is even spreading to other parts of the world. Stores have held Black Friday events in the U.K., Australia, and Brazil since 2012. In Costa Rica Black Friday is known as “Viernes Negro”.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一个重要的购物节日——“黑色星期五”。
4.Why do some stores sell TVs at low prices?
A.They are short of money.
B.They want to sell out old products.
C.They want people to buy other things.
D.They want people to enjoy their shopping.
C 解析:细节理解题。根据第二段中的They hope that shoppers will buy gifts for other people while they are in the store.可知,有些商店赔本卖电视是希望顾客能够买其他产品。
5.What does the underlined word“crestfallen” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A.Disappointed.       B.Confused.
C.Surprised. D.Excited.
A 解析:词义猜测题。根据第三段中的but not everyone who wants one will get one可知,没有买到廉价商品的顾客只能失望地离开。
6.How did the first Black Friday get its name?
A.It led to violent events.
B.It caused a lot of traffic.
C.It attracted large crowds.
D.It wasted too much money.
B 解析:细节理解题。根据第五段中的Police officers called this day Black Friday because of the heavy traffic it drew.可知,黑色星期五的命名与那天的交通拥堵有关。
7.What does the last paragraph say about Black Friday?
A.It has been celebrated as an old tradition.
B.It is a national holiday of the United States.
C.It has become an international shopping holiday.
D.It is called “Viernes Negro” in the English world.
C 解析:推理判断题。由最后一段可知,“黑色星期五”已经成为了一个国际购物节。

【解题导语】 习惯成自然。一次放弃便可能成为终生的习惯,因此应该像迈克乔丹那样永不言弃,走向辉煌。
1.the 解析:考查冠词。all the time 是固定短语,意为“一直”。
2.naturally 解析:考查副词。所填词修饰动词come,因此需要用其副词形式。
3.will catch 解析:考查动词的时态。这里是表示将来的事情,因此用一般将来时。
4.thinking 解析:考查非谓语动词。without是介词,后接动名词作宾语。
5.For 解析:考查介词。for直接加复数名词,在句子中作状语,意为“多少时间以来”。for years 意为:几年来,多年来。
6.best 解析:考查形容词的最高级。one of + the 形容词最高级表示“最……之一”。此处意思是他练习、训练成为有史以来最为优秀的篮球运动员之一。
7.decision 解析:考查名词。前面用one修饰,故用decide的名词形式。
8.that/which 解析:考查定语从句。先行词是habit,从句缺少主语,因此应该填that或which引导定语从句。
9.daily 解析:考查形容词。所填词介于形容词性物主代词和名词之间,因此应该是形容词,再结合语义可知,此处应填daily,his daily habits他的日常习惯。
10.to give 解析:考查非谓语动词。remember not to do sth.,记得不要做某事。

→In front of the house stands_a_tall_tree with a history of over 100 years.
(教材P42)Many people were buried alive, and so was the city. 很多人被活埋了, 整个城市也被掩埋。
本句中and so was the city相当于the city was buried, too。 “so+be/助动词/情态动词+主语” 的结构, 常用来表示与上句有相同的情况或动作, 其中so代表上句所述的情况或动作, 意为 “也是这样/如此”。一般情况下, 上下两句的主语不一样, 但上下句的谓语动词必须保持同类, 时态保持一致(除特殊情况外), 而下一句的谓语动词的人称数则与本句主语一致。
(1)若上句既出现了be动词, 又出现了实义动词或其他形式的动词时, 下句表示情况相同时, 要用so it is/was with...或it is/was the same with...的句型。
(2)若上句是一个并列句, 两个分句的主语一个指人, 一个指物时, 若下句要表示同样的情况, 要用so it is/was with...或it is/was the same with...的句型。
(3)if等连词引导的条件状语从句用一般现在时表将来, 但主句仍要用一般将来时, 因此so引导的主句要用助动词shall或will。
(4)若上句是一个否定句, 则下句不能用so, 而用neither或nor, 句型为 “neither/nor+be/助动词/情态动词+主语”, 表示后者 “同样也不……”。
(5)上句若有否定派生词, 则不算否定句, 下句仍用so。 
①He is tired, and so am I. 他累了, 我也累了。
②You can speak English, and so_can_I.
你会说英语, 我也会。
③Mark was a diligent student and worked very hard, and so_it_was_with Charlie.
Mark是一个勤奋的学生, 学习很努力, Charlie也一样。(本句的后半部分也可说成and it was the same with Charlie)
④—He has not been to New York.
——他没去过纽约。
— Neither_have_I.
——我也没去过。
⑤—She dislikes him. ——她不喜欢他。
—So_do_I. ——我也是。

阅读理解
Almost every night for more than ten years, Kirk Alexander, 48, of Salem, Oregon, ordered dinner from his local restaurant Domino’s Pizza.Then one day, he stopped calling.
“It had been several days,”Domino’s general manager Sarah Fuller said, “which is not like him.”
Sarah had known Kirk since 2009. Many Domino’s delivery drivers regularly made the short trip to Kirk’s house,about six minutes away. She knew he worked from home and that he hardly went outside. She also knew that he had suffered health problems in the past. Sarah was worried. Perhaps something was wrong.
Around 1 a.m. on Sunday, May 8,Sarah sent delivery driver Tracey Hamblen to Kirk’s home. Tracey approached the door as he had countless times before and knocked. He could plainly see the TV set and lights were on, but after several minutes, Kirk still hadn’t answered the door. Tracey called Kirk. The call went straight to voice mail.
Tracey then called 911, and soon officers were on their way. When they arrived at Kirk’s house, they heard a man calling for help from inside. They broke down the door and found Kirk on the floor in need of immediate medical attention after suffering from what Sarah said was a stroke. One day later, and they might have been too late.
So is keeping an eye on regular customers part of Domino’s business plan? Not really, says Sarah.“Kirk is part of our family here,”she said. “We felt like we needed to do something.”
【解题导语】 本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了一家比萨店的善举挽救了一位老顾客性命的故事。
1.What can we learn about Kirk?
A.He is out of work.
B.He lives with his family.
C.He enjoys staying indoors.
D.He always goes to Domino’s.
C 解析:推理判断题。根据第三段中的he hardly went outside可知,Kirk基本足不出户。
2.What happened to Kirk on May 8?
A.He called 911 for help.
B.He had a sudden serious illness.
C.He locked himself up in his house.
D.He was knocked down outside his house.
B 解析:细节理解题。根据第四段的内容和第五段中的found Kirk on the floor...stroke可知,Kirk在5月8日这天突发疾病。
3.What can be the best title for the text?
A.Pizza Saved a Life
B.Small Acts Mattered
C.Neighbor Lent a Hand
D.Domino’s Set an Example
A 解析:标题归纳题。通读文章后可知,一位比萨店的老顾客几乎每天都要订餐,然而接连好几天没这样做,该店的经理觉得事有蹊跷,因此派人过去查看,最后发现该顾客中风倒地。如果不是比萨店经理的此举,该顾客已经性命不保。由此可知,A项概括了文章主旨,作标题形象、贴切。

1.A.advise        B.persuade
C.warn D.force
C 解析:因为 “幸运” 喜欢 “偷” 东西, 所以夫妇俩总会告诫来访的朋友不要把行李敞开着, 此处用 “warn” 一词还具有幽默调侃的意味。
2.A.after B.while
C.when D.because
D 解析:前后为因果关系, 空后是说明夫妇俩之所以这样做的原因, 故选D。
3.A.basement B.bedroom
C.kitchen D.yard
A 解析:本空根据倒数第二段 “the sad dog had made trip after trip to the basement” 可知答案为A, “幸运” 是把东西藏在地下室的玩具箱里。
4.A.cold B.cancer
C.headache D.stomachache
B 解析:从下文 Mary到医院做了手术住院三周可知这不是感冒之类的小毛病, 再从最后一段 “Mary is still cancer-free” 可知 Mary 有一天查出自己患了癌症。故选B。
5.A.keep B.lose
C.punish D.leave
D 解析:注意此处的时态, 本处是在描述 Mary 当时的心理活动, 她在想: “幸运” 不会明白我不愿意离它而去(因为她想到自己可能会死)。并不是 “幸运” 有什么病或变故, 故B不可选。D项符合句意。
6.A.pain B.sadness
C.business D.death
D 解析:由上文 “If I die...” 可知本句是说:这一想法让 Mary 感觉比想到自己死还要难受。故选D。
7.A.successful B.expensive
C.difficult D.painful
A 解析:从后文 Mary 出院回家并且活了十二年, 癌症没有夺去她的生命可知手术很成功。故选A。
8.A.Gradually B.Finally
C.Unluckily D.Naturally
B 解析:Mary 在医院里治疗了三个星期, 最后终于迎来了出院回家的日子。故选B。
9.A.frightened B.disappointed
C.tired D.excited
C 解析:从后文 Mary 在沙发上昏昏睡去可知此处是说进了家门后, Mary 如此精疲力竭甚至连走进自己卧室的力气都没有了。故选C。
10.A.floor B.chair
C.bed D.couch
D 解析:从下一段 “She couldn’t ______ her head and her body on the couch” 可知 Jim 是把妻子安顿在沙发上, 让她睡一会儿。故选D。
11.A.greeted B.smiled
C.called D.cried
C 解析:“幸运” 站在那里注视着 Mary, 当 Mary 呼喊它的时候, 它并没有凑上前去, 这使得 Mary很难过, 此处用 greet (问候)不妥, 应是 Mary 招呼 “幸运” 到跟前去。故选C。
12.A.sleep B.pain
C.disappointment D.anger
A 解析:上文讲 Mary 非常疲劳, 下文有 “she fell asleep” 和 “When Mary woke” 这些信息, 由此可知此处是说 “但很快睡意袭来”。故选A。
13.A.shake B.move
C.raise D.control
B 解析:依据后文 “幸运” 把自己最珍爱的所有 “宝贝” 都给心爱的女主人搬来给她盖上可知此处应是讲由于她被这么多东西 “盖” 住了, 所以她感觉到在沙发上头和身体动弹不得。若用 raise 和 head 搭配, raise the head 含有 “look up” 的意思, 即抬起头往上看, 同时也无法同后面的 body 搭配, 不妥。故选B。
14.A.hard B.worried
C.heavy D.nervous
C 解析:因为身上压了这么多东西, 所以她感觉很沉很闷热。故选C。
15.A.caused B.saw
C.solved D.realized
D 解析:根据语境, 是 “当她认识到问题出在哪儿时, 不由得开心地笑了起来”。故选D。
16.A.showing B.returning
C.taking D.bringing
D 解析:她睡着的时候, 这条悲伤的狗一次又一次地跑到地下室, 把自己最珍爱的所有 “宝贝” 都给心爱的女主人搬来了。take 意为 “带去, 拿走”, 指把某物从说话者所在地拿走, bring 的意思正相反, 故C不妥。D符合句意。
17.A.closed B.protected
C.covered D.buried
C 解析:因为 “幸运” 的这一行为表明了它对 Mary 的爱, 所以作者把 “它用玩具把女主人盖了起来” 说成了 “它用爱把女主人盖了起来”, 写得含蓄巧妙。故选C。
18.A.Instead B.However
C.Certainly D.Surely
A 解析:Mary 不再想着会死的事, 而是和 “幸运” 重新开始了新的生活, 在讲完不做某件事后, 若紧接着讲做另一特定的事情, 常用 instead, however 没有此用法。故选A。
19.A.hiking B.walking
C.running D.going
B 解析:Mary 和 “幸运” 每天都一起出去散步, 走得越来越远。每天跑或徒步旅行不合常理或不合Mary 的身体状况。B符合文意。
20.A.remains B.becomes
C.turns D.seems
A 解析:从全文来看, 应是 “幸运” 以前最爱 Mary, 视她为自己最珍贵的 “宝贝”, 现在他们每天待在一起, “而 Mary 依然是它最珍贵的‘宝贝’”。因为自始至终是这样, 所以用B或C不正确, 只有A项表示 “状态的始终如一”。

阅读理解
A
Do you suppose Darwin, one of the greatest scientists of all time, really did foolish experiments? Or did he do experiments that were so simple and basic that other people just thought they were foolish?
Sometimes, people think they already know the answer to a question or the solution to a problem. Sometimes, they really do know an answer or a solution, but without thinking they are important.
Charles Darwin didn’t settle for(满足于) just thinking he knew something. And, he believed all things could be important however simple they seemed to be.
Suppose you drop sheets of paper that are of exactly the same size and shape. If you drop them at the same time in the same place, they will fall in the same way. Now make one of the sheets of paper into a tight little ball and let it drop along with the other sheets. What happens? You have done an experiment that is so simple that you might think it couldn’t be worth anything.
But this simple experiment is important. It explains part of our present-day understandings of physics, ideas that were worked out long ago by Galileo and Newton. And these understandings set_aside some of ancient Greek physics.
Scientists sometimes stop to look at very simple things and to think very hard about them. Even the simplest idea, which we might think is foolish, can shake the foundations of science.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇哲理类阅读,从达尔文切入,告诉人们,科学家不仅像常人一样知道某些真理,他们还验证真理,不管这些真理有多简单。
1.The passage tells us that Charles Darwin ________.
A.was a great English scientist
B.always liked doing the experiments that others thought difficult
C.thought even the simplest thing was important
D.didn’t get well with others
C 解析:细节理解题。根据第三段得知,达尔文并不满足于知道某些事,因为他相信,任何事物都很重要,不管它们看起来有多简单,故选C。
2.The underlined phrase “set aside” most probably means ________.
A.throw away B.store up
C.put to use D.realize
A 解析:词义猜测题。由上文可知作者认为做这个简单实验是重要的,它解释了目前人们对于物理方面的理解。因此这些理解当然是推翻了一些希腊古典物理学的观点。由此可推知set aside与throw away同义,故选A。

C.It is believed by all the people that things could be important though they seemed to be simple.

Do you like writing a few paragraphs every day about your experiences, hopes, memories or feelings? If you don’t, it’s time to make a change now. Here is why.
You will gradually become better at expressing yourself. When I am forced to write every day because of a book deadline(最后期限), I am always amazed at how quickly my writing and verbal(口头的) communication skills improve. When we become lazy with words, it is more difficult to describe feelings, share experiences and make ourselves understood.
You will remember things long forgotten. As you write about memories, it is like opening an old photo album. Your pen begins to explore feelings and details you have forgotten, and dreams you have left behind. You suddenly remember people you would like to contact again. Writing is an activity that avoids distractions(分心) long enough for you to explore those wonderful moments of the past. Sometimes they are frightening. Sometimes they are wonderful and almost always they are helpful.
Writing about daily experiences and feelings provides a recorded history that will influence how you make future decisions. There’s a reason that the greatest leaders in history were students of history. They learned from what had happened before. Your history is important. Don’t let it be forgotten.
Writing reminds you of your dreams and keeps you moving toward them. It is a means of keeping track of your purpose and the goals that will lead you to achieve them. Reviewing what you have written is a perfect way to see your progress and to show when you have been distracted and may need to give all your attention again to your writing.
Writing a little every day could provide the material that someday becomes a published book. When I wrote about my four-year-old granddaughter who had lost in the mountains, I never dreamed it would be in a book.
【解题导语】 每天记录我们的所思所想以及行为有很多好处,本文列举了其中的一些好处。

Almost every night for more than ten years, Kirk Alexander, 48, of Salem, Oregon, ordered dinner from his local restaurant Domino’s Pizza.Then one day, he stopped calling.
“It had been several days,”Domino’s general manager Sarah Fuller said, “which is not like him.”
Sarah had known Kirk since 2009. Many Domino’s delivery drivers regularly made the short trip to Kirk’s house,about six minutes away. She knew he worked from home and that he hardly went outside. She also knew that he had suffered health problems in the past. Sarah was worried. Perhaps something was wrong.
Around 1 a.m. on Sunday, May 8,Sarah sent delivery driver Tracey Hamblen to Kirk’s home. Tracey approached the door as he had countless times before and knocked. He could plainly see the TV set and lights were on, but after several minutes, Kirk still hadn’t answered the door. Tracey called Kirk. The call went straight to voice mail.
Tracey then called 911, and soon officers were on their way. When they arrived at Kirk’s house, they heard a man calling for help from inside. They broke down the door and found Kirk on the floor in need of immediate medical attention after suffering from what Sarah said was a stroke. One day later, and they might have been too late.
So is keeping an eye on regular customers part of Domino’s business plan? Not really, says Sarah.“Kirk is part of our family here,”she said. “We felt like we needed to do something.”
【解题导语】 本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了一家比萨店的善举挽救了一位老顾客性命的故事。
1.What can we learn about Kirk?
A.He is out of work.
B.He lives with his family.
C.He enjoys staying indoors.
D.He always goes to Domino’s.
C 解析:推理判断题。根据第三段中的he hardly went outside可知,Kirk基本足不出户。
2.What happened to Kirk on May 8?
A.He called 911 for help.
B.He had a sudden serious illness.
C.He locked himself up in his house.
D.He was knocked down outside his house.
B 解析:细节理解题。根据第四段的内容和第五段中的found Kirk on the floor...stroke可知,Kirk在5月8日这天突发疾病。
3.What can be the best title for the text?
A.Pizza Saved a Life
B.Small Acts Mattered
C.Neighbor Lent a Hand
D.Domino’s Set an Example
A 解析:标题归纳题。通读文章后可知,一位比萨店的老顾客几乎每天都要订餐,然而接连好几天没这样做,该店的经理觉得事有蹊跷,因此派人过去查看,最后发现该顾客中风倒地。如果不是比萨店经理的此举,该顾客已经性命不保。由此可知,A项概括了文章主旨,作标题形象、贴切。

1.A.advise        B.persuade
C.warn D.force
C 解析:因为 “幸运” 喜欢 “偷” 东西, 所以夫妇俩总会告诫来访的朋友不要把行李敞开着, 此处用 “warn” 一词还具有幽默调侃的意味。
2.A.after B.while
C.when D.because
D 解析:前后为因果关系, 空后是说明夫妇俩之所以这样做的原因, 故选D。
3.A.basement B.bedroom
C.kitchen D.yard
A 解析:本空根据倒数第二段 “the sad dog had made trip after trip to the basement” 可知答案为A, “幸运” 是把东西藏在地下室的玩具箱里。
4.A.cold B.cancer
C.headache D.stomachache
B 解析:从下文 Mary到医院做了手术住院三周可知这不是感冒之类的小毛病, 再从最后一段 “Mary is still cancer-free” 可知 Mary 有一天查出自己患了癌症。故选B。
5.A.keep B.lose
C.punish D.leave
D 解析:注意此处的时态, 本处是在描述 Mary 当时的心理活动, 她在想: “幸运” 不会明白我不愿意离它而去(因为她想到自己可能会死)。并不是 “幸运” 有什么病或变故, 故B不可选。D项符合句意。
6.A.pain B.sadness
C.business D.death
D 解析:由上文 “If I die...” 可知本句是说:这一想法让 Mary 感觉比想到自己死还要难受。故选D。
7.A.successful B.expensive
C.difficult D.painful
A 解析:从后文 Mary 出院回家并且活了十二年, 癌症没有夺去她的生命可知手术很成功。故选A。
8.A.Gradually B.Finally
C.Unluckily D.Naturally
B 解析:Mary 在医院里治疗了三个星期, 最后终于迎来了出院回家的日子。故选B。
9.A.frightened B.disappointed
C.tired D.excited
C 解析:从后文 Mary 在沙发上昏昏睡去可知此处是说进了家门后, Mary 如此精疲力竭甚至连走进自己卧室的力气都没有了。故选C。
10.A.floor B.chair
C.bed D.couch
D 解析:从下一段 “She couldn’t ______ her head and her body on the couch” 可知 Jim 是把妻子安顿在沙发上, 让她睡一会儿。故选D。
11.A.greeted B.smiled
C.called D.cried
C 解析:“幸运” 站在那里注视着 Mary, 当 Mary 呼喊它的时候, 它并没有凑上前去, 这使得 Mary很难过, 此处用 greet (问候)不妥, 应是 Mary 招呼 “幸运” 到跟前去。故选C。
12.A.sleep B.pain
C.disappointment D.anger
A 解析:上文讲 Mary 非常疲劳, 下文有 “she fell asleep” 和 “When Mary woke” 这些信息, 由此可知此处是说 “但很快睡意袭来”。故选A。
13.A.shake B.move
C.raise D.control
B 解析:依据后文 “幸运” 把自己最珍爱的所有 “宝贝” 都给心爱的女主人搬来给她盖上可知此处应是讲由于她被这么多东西 “盖” 住了, 所以她感觉到在沙发上头和身体动弹不得。若用 raise 和 head 搭配, raise the head 含有 “look up” 的意思, 即抬起头往上看, 同时也无法同后面的 body 搭配, 不妥。故选B。
14.A.hard B.worried
C.heavy D.nervous
C 解析:因为身上压了这么多东西, 所以她感觉很沉很闷热。故选C。
15.A.caused B.saw
C.solved D.realized
D 解析:根据语境, 是 “当她认识到问题出在哪儿时, 不由得开心地笑了起来”。故选D。
16.A.showing B.returning
C.taking D.bringing
D 解析:她睡着的时候, 这条悲伤的狗一次又一次地跑到地下室, 把自己最珍爱的所有 “宝贝” 都给心爱的女主人搬来了。take 意为 “带去, 拿走”, 指把某物从说话者所在地拿走, bring 的意思正相反, 故C不妥。D符合句意。
17.A.closed B.protected
C.covered D.buried
C 解析:因为 “幸运” 的这一行为表明了它对 Mary 的爱, 所以作者把 “它用玩具把女主人盖了起来” 说成了 “它用爱把女主人盖了起来”, 写得含蓄巧妙。故选C。
18.A.Instead B.However
C.Certainly D.Surely
A 解析:Mary 不再想着会死的事, 而是和 “幸运” 重新开始了新的生活, 在讲完不做某件事后, 若紧接着讲做另一特定的事情, 常用 instead, however 没有此用法。故选A。
19.A.hiking B.walking
C.running D.going
B 解析:Mary 和 “幸运” 每天都一起出去散步, 走得越来越远。每天跑或徒步旅行不合常理或不合Mary 的身体状况。B符合文意。
20.A.remains B.becomes
C.turns D.seems
A 解析:从全文来看, 应是 “幸运” 以前最爱 Mary, 视她为自己最珍贵的 “宝贝”, 现在他们每天待在一起, “而 Mary 依然是它最珍贵的‘宝贝’”。因为自始至终是这样, 所以用B或C不正确, 只有A项表示 “状态的始终如一”。

A
Do you suppose Darwin, one of the greatest scientists of all time, really did foolish experiments? Or did he do experiments that were so simple and basic that other people just thought they were foolish?
Sometimes, people think they already know the answer to a question or the solution to a problem. Sometimes, they really do know an answer or a solution, but without thinking they are important.
Charles Darwin didn’t settle for(满足于) just thinking he knew something. And, he believed all things could be important however simple they seemed to be.
Suppose you drop sheets of paper that are of exactly the same size and shape. If you drop them at the same time in the same place, they will fall in the same way. Now make one of the sheets of paper into a tight little ball and let it drop along with the other sheets. What happens? You have done an experiment that is so simple that you might think it couldn’t be worth anything.
But this simple experiment is important. It explains part of our present-day understandings of physics, ideas that were worked out long ago by Galileo and Newton. And these understandings set_aside some of ancient Greek physics.
Scientists sometimes stop to look at very simple things and to think very hard about them. Even the simplest idea, which we might think is foolish, can shake the foundations of science.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇哲理类阅读,从达尔文切入,告诉人们,科学家不仅像常人一样知道某些真理,他们还验证真理,不管这些真理有多简单。

A.was a great English scientist
B.always liked doing the experiments that others thought difficult
C.thought even the simplest thing was important
D.didn’t get well with others
C 解析:细节理解题。根据第三段得知,达尔文并不满足于知道某些事,因为他相信,任何事物都很重要,不管它们看起来有多简单,故选C。
2.The underlined phrase “set aside” most probably means ________.
A.throw away B.store up
C.put to use D.realize
A 解析:词义猜测题。由上文可知作者认为做这个简单实验是重要的,它解释了目前人们对于物理方面的理解。因此这些理解当然是推翻了一些希腊古典物理学的观点。由此可推知set aside与throw away同义,故选A。
3.The author of the passage tries to ________.
A.convince us that Charles Darwin, Galileo and Newton are the greatest scientists in the world
B.draw the conclusion that basic sciences are simple things 
C.prove that two sheets of paper, with the same size and shape, will fall at the same speed
D.draw our attention to everyday happenings around us
D 解析:主旨大意题。短文的最后一段点明最简单的事情都可能动摇科学的根基,意在告诉读者要留意身边的每一件事,哪怕它非常简单,故选D。
4.Which of the following is TRUE?
A.Darwin really did foolish experiments.
B.According to some people Darwin did foolish experiments.
C.It is believed by all the people that things could be important though they seemed to be simple.
D.Galileo and Newton worked out ancient Greek physics.
B 解析:细节理解题。根据Or did he do experiments that were so simple and basic that other people just thought they were foolish?明确告诉我们,有些人认为Darwin做了愚蠢的实验,故选B。

新疆发现古希腊塑像
最近,研究人员宣布,在中国新疆北部地区发现了一尊小型塑像。这尊金属塑像是一名希腊士兵的造型。当被问及来自遥远希腊的塑像怎么会出现在中国时,研究人员解释说,这无疑是亚历山大大帝的影响所致。
亚历山大大帝(公元前356年-公元前323年)是一位在战斗中击败了许多希腊城邦的希腊国王之子。20岁那年,父亲死后,亚历山大自己成了国王。然而,许多城邦趁势作乱,反对亚历山大,于是他便率领一支军队夺回了这些城邦。尽管他的军队仅有三千人,但是他赢得了所有战役,许多敌方士兵投靠了他。
In 334BC,he took his army,now with 42,000 men,into the Middle East and then Egypt, defeating every army that stood in his path?.Then he turned his eyes east,and marched?all the way to India,finding victory wherever he went?.It seemed that?nothing could stop him from taking?control of(the entire world.However,his own army grew tired of(endless battles and refused to go any further,so he had to turn back.By the age of thirty,he had already occupied(more land than anyone before,and it seemed that more glory(was waiting ahead(of him.Yet,in 323 BC,he came down with(a fever and died.Since he had no son(,his generals divided his vast(kingdom among(themselves.
Alexander the Great spread the Greek culture from Europe to Africa and Asia,influencing the world for centuries to come(.The statue of the Greek soldier found in northern Xinjiang probably came to China in the 4th century BC as a result of(trade.Like many other ancient objects that show a Greek influence(,it can now be seen in a museum in Urumqi.

亚历山大大帝将希腊文化从欧洲传播到非洲和亚洲,在此后的数个世纪中影响了整个世界。在新疆北部发现的希腊士兵塑像也许是在公元前4世纪因贸易而来到中国的。像许多显示希腊影响力的其他古代文物一样,它现在在乌鲁木齐的一家博物馆展出。
  
The father of Western philosophy①
The word ‘philosophy’ means ‘love of wisdom’.Philosophy can be thought of as②a way of looking③at the world around us,or of answering the great questions of life,such as④‘Why are we here?’ and ‘What is truth?’
The father of Western philosophy was Socrates(469-399 BC).Socrates was from Athens,in Greece.When he was young,he was a brave soldier.Later,he became a teacher,but he taught for free⑤and earned his salary⑥from⑦being a common worker.Aside from⑧this,we know very little about him.Since he never wrote a book⑨,we also know very little about his philosophy.Yet,Socrates has had a deep influence on⑩Western thought and science.

西方哲学之父
“哲学”一词意为“热爱智慧”。哲学可被认为是观察我们周围世界的一种方式,或是解答人生重大问题的一种方式,如“我们为什么会在这里?”以及“什么是真理?”
西方哲学之父是苏格拉底(公元前469年-公元前399年)。苏格拉底是希腊雅典人。年轻时,他是一名勇敢的士兵。后来,他成了一名教师,但他教书却不收费,靠当一名普通劳动者挣钱。除此以外,我们对他了解很少。由于他从不写书,因此我们对他的哲学也知之甚少。然而,苏格拉底对西方的思想和科学却有着深远的影响。
To understand how this can be true,we must understand how Socrates taught?.Socrates taught by asking questions.Through this,he challenged his students to develop and explain their own arguments.In many cases?,his questions made his students aware?of their own errors.Many students got embarrassed?and even angry when this happened,while?others changed their opinions.Socrates’way of approaching?the truth is now called the Socratic Method.The idea of asking questions until you reach the right answer is the basis?of modern philosophy and science.
?动词不定式To understand...作目的状语,两个how都引导宾语从句。
?in many cases在很多情况下
in no case在任何情况下都不,决不
?aware[?'we?(r)]adj.意识到的,知道的;察觉到的
be aware of意识到
?got embarrassed“感到尴尬”,为“get+adj.”结构。
?while意为“然而,而”,表转折。
?approach v.靠近,接近
?basis['beIsIs]n.基础;基准;原因
为了理解这何以成真,我们必须搞清楚苏格拉底是怎样教学的。苏格拉底通过提问进行教学。通过这种方式,他鞭策学生,要他们完善并阐释自己的论点。在很多情况下,他的问题使得他的学生们意识到他们自己的错误。当这种情况发生时,许多学生感到尴尬甚至气愤,而另外一些学生则改变了他们的观点。苏格拉底探求真理的方式现在被称作苏格拉底问答法。提出一个个问题直至你得出正确答案的这一思路是现代哲学和科学的基础。
Unfortunately?for him,Socrates questioned?too much.He always asked challenging?questions to everyone he met,upsetting many people in Athens(.Finally,some people had had enough of(him,so they took him to court(for(questioning the existence of the Greek gods(and for corrupting(the young people of Athens.At his trial(,he defended(himself by asking his judges(yet more questions.This just made a bad situation worse(.Finally he was put to death(by being forced to drink poison(.Through his death,Socrates became the hero of all people who search for(the truth(.
?unfortunately adv.“不幸地”,在句中作插入语。
?question v. 提问,质问
?challenging adj.具有挑战性的
he met是定语从句,修饰everyone,省略了定语从句的引导词who(m);upsetting many people...作结果状语。
have enough of受够了
court[k??t]n.法院,法庭;球场;宫廷
take sb.to court for (doing) sth.因某人做了某事而将其告上法庭
god[ɡ?d]n.神,神灵
corrupt[k?'r?pt]vt.使腐化,使堕落adj.贪污的,腐败的
trial['traI?l]n.审讯,审理;试验;考验
defend vt.为……辩护
judge[d??d?]n.法官,审判员;裁判员
此处为“make+宾语+宾语补足语”结构。
put...to death判……死刑
poison['p?Izn]n.毒药;毒物vt.毒害,下毒
search for寻求,寻找
who引导定语从句,修饰people。
对他来说不幸的是,苏格拉底问得太多了。每遇到一个人,他都要提出一些具有挑战性的问题,惹恼了雅典的许多人。最后,一些人对他忍无可忍,于是便把他送上了法庭,罪名是质疑希腊众神的存在和腐蚀雅典的年轻人。在审判中,他却向法官们提出更多问题,以此为自己辩护。这更是雪上加霜。最后,他被迫喝下毒药而被处死。由于他的死,苏格拉底成了所有探求真理的人心目中的英雄。

The largest chariot pit (战车坑) of relics with carts and horse bones has been discovered in Henan Province.It may lead to the uncovering of chariot pit groups that could be a key to understanding Chinese civilizations that existed more than 2,000 years ago.
Experts said the relics are dated more than 300 years earlier than the famous warriors(武士) in Shaanxi Province.What excited the experts were two other projects that located two huge pits with similar features.
“It is absolutely a miracle.These relics indicate that there could be a tomb group in this area, which is likely to be important for China’s archaeological(考古学的) studies.” said Ma Juncai, a leading relic researcher in the province.
In ancient China, carts, sheep, spoons and so on were buried to ensure that dead people had a happy afterlife.The number and quality of the sacrifices indicated the social status of the dead.The custom was carried into the Qin Dynasty.Emperor Qinshihuang’s tomb, located near Xi’an, the capital of Shaanxi Province, is accompanied by thousands of wood or clay figures of warriors and horses.The tomb is probably the most well-known.
The discovered pit measures 10.4 meters long, 8.4 meters wide and 5 meters deep.It holds 20 carts in different sizes.The smallest one is 1.05 meters long and 1.3 meters wide.
Experts think that 40 horses are likely to be found as well.Careful plans need to be made to deal with the demanding uncovering. “The clay is very weak and a small misstep can destroy the whole project.That’s why we need to take every step very carefully to protect these cherished cultural relics.” Ma said.

On the following day he fell ill and couldn’t take the trip.Both of 6.____________(they)were very sad about that because they really expected 7.____________(take)the trip.But two days later,they knew they were 8.____________(extreme)lucky to have missed the cruise(航行) on the SS Eastland.That day Henry read in the newspaper that the cruise had sunk with over 800 people on board.Henry and Pearl didn’t die in that incident 9.____________they didn’t take the trip.
Henry is my grandfather and Pearl is my mother.Thanks to that argument 100 years ago,22 descendants(子孙)could come to the world later.
As the old saying goes,“Misfortune may be 10.____________actual blessing(福气).”So don’t be too sad when something bad happens.It may turn out to be something good.
【解题导语】 作者的外祖父和妈妈因为没有外出旅游而躲过了一次劫难。
1.excited 解析:考查形容词。Henry和Pearl为第二天的旅行而兴奋,应用形容词形式excited。
2.with 解析:考查介词。have an argument with sb.意为“跟某人争吵”。
3.damaging 解析:考查非谓语动词。此处需用动名词作介词with的宾语。
4.painting 解析:考查名词。这里是指the Virgin Mary这幅油画。
5.realized 解析:考查动词的时态。realize这个动作发生在过去,需用一般过去时态。
6.them 解析:考查代词。of是介词,后需接代词的宾格形式。
7.to take 解析:考查非谓语动词。expect to do sth.意为“期望做某事”。
8.extremely 解析:考查副词。需用副词修饰形容词lucky,故填extreme的副词形式。
9.because 解析:考查连词。他们躲过此次灾难的原因是:没有外出旅游。故用because引导原因状语从句。
10.an 解析:考查冠词。这里不是特指某种福气,而是泛指,又因actual首字母发元音,故填不定冠词an。

Section Ⅳ Grammar & Writing
[学生用书P71]
宾语补足语&主谓一致
宾语补足语
英语中句子的宾语需要进一步补充说明时, 其后常接补充成分, 称为宾语补足语。可以充当宾语补足语的有:名词、形容词、副词、动词不定式、现在分词、过去分词、介词短语等。
一、名词作宾语补足语
能以名词作宾语补足语的动词有:name, call, appoint, find, consider, choose, elect, think, leave, keep等。
They named their son Dick.
他们给儿子取名为迪克。
They left me no food.
他们没有给我留下吃的。
(1)表示头衔或职务的名词作宾语补足语时, 名词前不加冠词。
(2) “动词+宾语+宾语补足语” 结构变为被动结构时, 宾语补足语则相应变为主语补足语。
We elected him Chairman.
我们选他当主席。(Chairman为宾语补足语)
He was elected Chairman.
他被选为主席。(Chairman为主语补足语)
二、形容词作宾语补足语
可以接形容词作宾语补足语的动词有:make, prove, leave, find, think, consider, keep等。
He will make her happy.
他会让她幸福的。
She was determined to prove everyone wrong.
她决心证明大家都是错的。
三、副词作宾语补足语
可以充当宾语补足语的副词有:out, upstairs, in, over, on, outside, indoors等。
He put his tongue out. 他伸出了舌头。
I asked her over. 我请她过来。
四、动词不定式作宾语补足语
1.可以接不定式作宾语补足语的动词有:allow, permit, ask, beg, expect, teach, want等。
His mother doesn’t allow him to smoke.
他母亲不允许他抽烟。
She wanted her husband to buy a car for her.
她想让丈夫给她买辆车。
2.可跟不带to的不定式作宾语补足语的动词有:make, have, let, feel, see, notice, watch, observe等。
This skirt makes her look very young.
这条裙子使她看起来很年轻。
She lets her children play in the garden.
她让孩子们在花园里玩。
在被动结构中, 不定式不能省略to。
She is made to leave school by her father’s death.
=Her father’s death makes her leave school.
由于父亲去世, 她辍学了。
五、现在分词作宾语补足语
可以跟现在分词作宾语补足语的动词有:see, watch, hear, feel, notice, smell, observe, look at, listen to, find, have, keep, set, get, leave(使……保持)等。
I saw them arguing in the middle of the street.
我看见他们在街道中间争辩不休。
现在分词作宾语补足语表示动作正在进行, 不定式作宾语补足语表示动作的全过程。
When I passed by the playground yesterday, I saw my classmates playing basketball.
昨天我经过操场的时候看到我的同学正在打篮球。
My neighbor saw a stranger come into my house.
我的邻居看到一个陌生人进了我的房子。
六、过去分词作宾语补足语
能接过去分词作宾语补足语的动词与可接现在分词作宾语补足语的词基本一致, 但应注意此时补足语与宾语之间存在逻辑上的被动关系。
His patience makes himself understood.
他的耐心让他得到了别人的理解。(himself和understand之间为逻辑上的被动关系)
七、介词短语作宾语补足语
I found him at home. 我发现他在家里。
八、介词with后常跟宾语补足语构成复合宾语
with+n./pron.+adj./adv./to do/v.-ing/v.-ed/prep.短语

所有工作都已完成, 她有时间去购物了。
对接高考
①When we saw the road ____________(block) with snow, we decided to spend the holiday at home.
当看到道路被雪堵住的时候, 我们决定在家里度假。
blocked 解析:此处非谓语动词作宾补, 动词block与see的宾语the road之间为被动关系, 构成短语see sb./sth.done。
②Let those in need ____________(understand) that we will go all out to help them.
要让那些生活困难的人们相信我们会全力以赴帮助他们的。
understand 解析:动词let后接动词原形understand作宾补, 表示与宾语those in need之间为主动关系, 构成短语let sb.do sth.。
③The manager was satisfied to see many new products ____________(develop) after great effort.
经理很满意地看到在做出很大的努力后, 许多新产品被开发出来了。
developed 解析:分析题干可知, 题干中含有 “see+宾语+宾语补足语” 结构;宾语many new products与develop之间为被动关系, 故要用过去分词作宾语补足语。
主谓一致
主谓一致可依据三条原则:语法一致、意义一致和就近一致原则。
一、语法一致原则
1.一般来说, 主语是单数, 谓语动词用单数形式;主语是复数, 谓语动词用复数形式。

对接高考
④Leaving the less important things until tomorrow ____________(be) often acceptable.
把不太重要的事情留到明天是可以接受的。
is 解析:分析句子结构可知,动名词短语Leaving the less important things until tomorrow作主语,故谓语动词用单数。

孔子认为刀会给人们杀戮的提醒,用在餐桌上太暴力。
were 解析:主语是knives,讲述的是过去的事情,所以用were。
⑥Generally, students’ inner motivation with high expectations from others ____________(be) essential to their development.
一般说来, 别人对其期望值高的学生, 他们的内在动机对自身的发展是至关重要的。
is 解析:考查主谓一致和动词时态。主语为motivation, 故谓语用单数;根据语境及generally可知, 描述的是一般情况, 故使用一般现在时。
二、意义一致原则
1.作主语用的集体名词作为一个整体看待时, 谓语动词用单数;若指其中的所有成员, 谓语动词则用复数。
The committee was made up of 10 members.

生病的人得到痊愈, 并且失踪的人也都被找到了。
三、就近一致原则

What he does or what he says does not concern me.
他做什么或他说什么都不会影响到我。

 [学生用书P73]
如何写演讲稿
文体感知
文章开头对听众的称呼语, 最常用的是Ladies and gentlemen, 也可根据不同情况, 选用Fellow students, Distinguished guests, Mr.Chairman, Honorable Judges(评委)等。由于演讲的时间限制, 英语演讲稿首先开头要开门见山地提出论题。如Today I’m here to show you.../tell you something about...;We’re gathering here to view some...等。
中间要用各种方法和所准备的材料说明、支持你的论点, 关键是要把道理讲清楚。常见的论证方法有举例法、因果法、对比法等。
结尾加强说明论点或得出结论, 以给听众留下深刻的印象。同时向听众表达谢意, 尤其是不要受汉语影响, 说些类似 “准备不足, 请谅解”, “请批评指正” 这样的话。常用语有:Thank you very much for your attention!/I’m glad (that) you could join us./Thank you for coming to the talk today! /I’m grateful that you have come today! 等。
英语演讲稿的写作有严格的要求, 就内容而言要主题鲜明、表达完整;就文章组织结构而言要思维清晰、逻辑性强;就语言而言要有感染力、形象生动。多用实词、短句, 少用结构复杂的长句。
演讲稿要注意使用各种修辞手法, 增加演讲的感染力和气势。常用的修辞手法有:渐进(climax)、对照(antithesis)、比拟(parallelism)、警句(epigram)等。
例如:That government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth.(排比)
这个民有、民治、民享的国家将不会从地球上消失。
United, there is little we can not do;divided, there is little we can do.(对照)
团结, 我们便将无所不能;分裂, 我们则会一事无成。
Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country.(对照)
不要问你们的国家能为你们做些什么, 而要问你们能为你们的国家做些什么。
尽量避免使用生僻、模糊、晦涩的字词。同时不要用太多I feel, I think之类的词,会使人觉得缺乏说服力。另外, perhaps, maybe这样的词语, 虽然有 “客气, 谦虚” 的成分, 但出现太多会让人觉得演讲的内容有不可靠之处。
写作要求
实现有效的沟通, 建立良好的人际关系, 不仅要善于言表, 更要学会倾听。请你根据下表中所提供的信息, 写一篇主题为 “Being a Good Listener” 的英文演讲稿。

I once thought that outer beauty is the only factor to become a great person.When I was young, I read many kinds of books, most of which described characters who are handsome or beautiful.So I think that being beautiful is the only way to become a success.
As I grew up, the story of my best friend made me realize that outer beauty was not so important to make a person successful.She is so beautiful a girl that every classmate liked to chat with her, but she was very arrogant(傲慢).In her opinion, she could get all she wanted because of her beauty, but all of her friends left her one by one! Only then did she come to know the importance of the beauty in a person’s heart, which changed her attitude and she made friends again.
Turning on TV, we can see many advertisements, most of which seem to give us a feeling that, physical attractiveness is the most important thing.There_seems_to_be_a_boom_in_plastic_surgery.It is surprising that more and more people, especially girls and women, try it like the first man-made beauty in China, Hao Lulu.It is a common sense that attractive people can easily find work.Most good looking guys, usually get higher scores in the job interviews.But, what is real beauty? I want to say that is inner beauty because those who have beauty in their soul are really beautiful persons.
As is known, the beauty judged with eyes is temporary, so we should concentrate on inner beauty.And if we make the efforts to make our minds beautiful, we’ll live a happier life.
【解题导语】 作者受小说的影响, 非常重视外在美, 以为只有漂亮才能成为一个成功的人, 这也正是整容手术越来越繁荣的原因, 而朋友的经历使作者深刻地认识到, 内在美才是真正的美。

C.Because she wanted to follow the example of her friend.

B.To show how terrible to be a beautiful girl.
C.To show the importance of the beauty in a person’s heart.
D.To show how beautiful her friend was.
C 解析:推理判断题。文章第一段作者竖起了靶子, 早些时候认为外在美是成功的唯一因素, 第二段举例反证它的错误, 引出作者的观点, 外在美是暂时的, 它不是一个人成功的关键因素, 故选C项。
6.What does the underlined sentence in the third paragraph mean?

B.Surgery is becoming more and more popular.
C.More people can afford the price of doing plastic surgery.

I once thought that outer beauty is the only factor to become a great person.When I was young, I read many kinds of books, most of which described characters who are handsome or beautiful.So I think that being beautiful is the only way to become a success.
As I grew up, the story of my best friend made me realize that outer beauty was not so important to make a person successful.She is so beautiful a girl that every classmate liked to chat with her, but she was very arrogant(傲慢).In her opinion, she could get all she wanted because of her beauty, but all of her friends left her one by one! Only then did she come to know the importance of the beauty in a person’s heart, which changed her attitude and she made friends again.
Turning on TV, we can see many advertisements, most of which seem to give us a feeling that, physical attractiveness is the most important thing.There_seems_to_be_a_boom_in_plastic_surgery.It is surprising that more and more people, especially girls and women, try it like the first man-made beauty in China, Hao Lulu.It is a common sense that attractive people can easily find work.Most good looking guys, usually get higher scores in the job interviews.But, what is real beauty? I want to say that is inner beauty because those who have beauty in their soul are really beautiful persons.
As is known, the beauty judged with eyes is temporary, so we should concentrate on inner beauty.And if we make the efforts to make our minds beautiful, we’ll live a happier life.
【解题导语】 作者受小说的影响, 非常重视外在美, 以为只有漂亮才能成为一个成功的人, 这也正是整容手术越来越繁荣的原因, 而朋友的经历使作者深刻地认识到, 内在美才是真正的美。
4.Why did the author want to have a good appearance when she was young?

I believe children have a very pure sense of humor. Well, I would like to share my experiences with you.
The other day when I was out with a friend and her daughter Jane at a restaurant, Jane ordered an apple dessert, which was the most attractive dish in that restaurant. However, when she had a bite of the pie, she shouted loudly, “Mom, why does it look good but tastes like rubber?” My friend was uneasy. Then the waiter gave us another dish.
A child can say funny things. I was at a friend’s home for tea and her son, Mark, wanted her to get up. His mom replied, “I can’t, because my foot has fallen asleep now.” Little Mark then sang a song and asked, “Mom, will it wake up now?” We laughed together.
The other day we were having an interesting conversation over lunch and my friend, an animal activist(积极分子), was arguing with another group member. Her son Tommy suddenly stood up, “Mom, people should never be allowed to shoot extinct animals!” That was funny and the child did manage to turn the argument into a pleasant conversation.
Well, children sometimes really surprise us. I think we can have a lot to learn from them. They can help us understand the simple world through their eyes.

An Announcement
It was a small town which lay by the coast. Most people there lived by catching fish. The hurricanes often struck the area from July to October. Some of the people died on the sea when their boats were blown over by the heavy winds. So they paid much attention to the weather forecast(天气预报). They were afraid to meet with the hurricanes when they were catching fish on the sea.Each of the families had a radio and people always took them with themselves and listened to them at any time.
It was September. A hurricane attacked the town one night. Plenty of trees were pushed over and all the electrics and telephone lines were broken. People couldn’t watch TV, or call their friends, or go to work. To their anger, they couldn’t listen to the weather forecast the Town Radio Station broadcast. The food and fresh water would soon be short and the patients couldn’t be given medical care—no medicine could be carried there. People didn’t know what would happen and they looked anxious.
On the fourth day they read an announcement(通告) on the Town Weekly. It was written, “Recently we have to stop the weather forecast because of the bad weather. We usually get the forecast from the airport. But the roads are all blocked by the fallen trees and stones. Whether or not we’ll be able to broadcast the weather forecast tomorrow depends on the weather! ”

Every hour spent outdoors each week can reduce a child’s chance of becoming short-sighted by two percent. Children who are short-sighted spend an average of 3.7 fewer hours a week outside compared with those who have normal vision, a study has found.
Short-sightedness runs in families and has also been linked to a host of factors. They include the amount of time spent focusing on near objects and levels of physical activity. But simply spending time out of the house may be enough to protect the eyesight. Being outdoors can reduce the amount of time that children spend in reading or playing computer games, researchers said.
Between 15 and 20 per cent of British people are short-sighted, but the problem is much more serious in parts of East Asia.There, as much as 80 per cent of the population are short-sighted.One study compared children living in different countries. It found that those in Australia had better vision on average than people of the same age in China and Singapore. The Australian group read and achieved as much as those in other countries, but they were found to spend more time outdoors.
Dr. Sherwin, one of the researchers who did the study, said the benefit from being outdoors could be linked to increased UV radiation(紫外线辐射).Short-sightedness is caused by having longer eyes and some studies have shown that some chemicals affected by UV rays may control the length of the eye. A lack of sunlight could make such chemicals grow too much, he explained.
He said, “It could be caused by not enough UV radiation, and it could also be caused by spending less time looking into the distance or not enough physical activity.”
8.What is the main idea of the passage?
A.Children’s short-sightedness can be cured.
B.There are several causes of children’s short-sightedness.
C.Spending more time outdoors can lead to better eyesight.
D.Children who spend more time outdoors are much healthier.
C 解析:主旨大意题。本文主要是关于一项研究的结果, 这项研究表明多花些时间待在户外可以降低儿童患近视的概率, 故选C。
9.What does the underlined word “They” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A.Near objects.
B.Levels of physical activity.
C.Families which have short-sightedness.
D.Some factors linked to short-sightedness.
D 解析:代词指代题。根据画线词前面的“a host of factors”和后面的“...the amount of time spent focusing on near objects and levels of physical activity” 可知, 画线词They是指那些能导致近视的因素。
10.According to Paragraph 3, in the study children in Australia________.
A.achieved less
B.had poorer eyesight
C.stayed outdoors more
D.spent less time reading
C 解析:细节理解题。根据第三段的“The Australian group read and achieved as much as those in other countries, but they were found to spend more time outdoors.” 可知应选C。
11.Which of the following is NOT mentioned by Dr. Sherwin as a cause of short-sightedness?
A.Receiving too little UV radiation.
B.Not taking part in enough physical activities.
C.Spending little time looking into the distance.
D.Not eating enough food that is good for our eyesight.
D 解析:细节理解题。根据末段的“He said, ‘It could be caused by...physical activity.’”可知应选D。
D
Have you ever been laughed at by others? Being laughed at is a common fear.But a study found that this fear is not the same around the world.It differs from culture to culture.
People in Finland were the least likely to believe that people laughing in their presence were making fun of them. Less than ten per cent of Finns in the study said they would think that, compared to eighty per cent of people in Thailand.
Some people in the study said they felt unsure of themselves in social situations but hid their feelings of insecurity(不安全).Others said they avoided social situations where they had been laughed at before.The study found that people in Turkmenistan and Cambodia were more likely to be in the first group.They would hide their feelings of insecurity if they were around other people’s laughter.But people in Iraq, Egypt and Jordan were more likely to try to avoid such situations if they felt they had been laughed at before.
Shy people often avoid situations that would force them into close contact with other people.They worry that something they say or do will make other people laugh at them.But some people worry much more than others.They may have gelotophobia.Gelos is a Greek word.It means laughter.Phobia means fear.This fear of laughter can be truly sad for those who live with it.It can affect how they lead their lives.
In the study, a team from the University of Zurich led more than ninety researchers from around the world.They wanted to understand the difference between normal shyness and true gelotophobia.Another purpose of the study was to compare the levels of fear of being laughed at in different cultures.The researchers surveyed more than twenty-two thousand people in forty-two different languages.The findings appeared in the scientific journal Humour.
12.The author asked a question in the first paragraph in order to________.
A.show his/her doubt
B.introduce the topic
C.ask for the answer
D.entertain readers
B 解析:推理判断题。根据第一段可推出, 作者用一个问题开头是为了引出文章的主题, 故选B。
13.Paragraph 3 mainly tells us________.
A.people in different cultures show different fears of being laughed at
B.people in Egypt think people laughing at them are making fun of them
C.people always try to avoid situations where they may be looked down on
D.many people usually try to hide their feelings when being laughed at in strange places
A 解析:段落大意题。根据第三段的内容可推出, 本段主要举例介绍了不同文化中的人们对被嘲笑表现出不同的恐惧, 故选A。
14.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A.People in Thailand like making fun of others.
B.People in Iraq, Egypt and Cambodia often avoided people’s laughter.
C.The study found that people of Finland always made other people laugh.
D.Some people hid their feelings of insecurity if they felt unsure of themselves.
D 解析:细节理解题。根据第三段的“Some people in the study said they felt unsure of themselves in social situations but hid their feelings of insecurity(不安全).” 可知D项说法正确。
15.According to the passage, shy people often________.
A.live their life with great fear
B.fear that they may hurt others
C.worry much more than others
D.avoid getting in touch with others
D 解析:细节理解题。根据倒数第二段第一句话“Shy people often avoid situations that would force them into close contact with other people.” 可知答案为D。

16.A 解析:根据前文This means teens need to get...at school.可知紧张的时间表意味着青少年晚上一定要休息好,否则在学校会因疲惫无法学习,说明了作息不好会导致不良后果。浏览选项发现A选项What’s worse, they may even fall asleep in class.与前文联系紧密,以递进语气阐述休息不好可能对青少年产生的更严重的后果。且与后文When a teen falls asleep in class, two things happen中描述的语境也有关联,起到了承上启下的作用。故选A。
17.F 解析:根据语境可知前文青少年作息不好会导致课堂上睡觉的严重后果,而在后文To prevent your teen from being sleepy in class, try these three tips中,作者就如何避免孩子因不良作息导致上课睡觉的问题给出了三个建议。所以青少年作息不好导致课堂上睡觉的问题是可以被解决的。故选F。
18.E 解析:根据Set a time for “lights out” on school nights.可知这一段的大意为“设置一个熄灯时间”,E选项“Lights out”means the computer, television, lights and cell phone should be off.中的短语“Lights out”和这一段内容相符合,故选E。
19.B 解析:根据前文that involves activities that slow them down for the end of the day可知B项Taking a bath and reading are two activities that work well.中的“洗澡和阅读”就是两个能让孩子们从一天的紧张节奏中减缓下来的有效活动,符合语境。
20.D 解析:根据后文This will reinforce(增强) what it feels like to be rested and capable of achieving what he/she wants.可知这将会加强孩子们有一个良好作息的习惯,以及能够达到想要的目的成就感。D项“在孩子睡了一晚好觉后,指出其积极的方面”符合语境。因为指出良好作息的好处后,有利于加强孩子们对正确作息的认同感。

Nature
Nature is the mother of mankind.We get almost everything from her. We live on natural food.We make clothes from natural materials. And we build our houses of stone and wood.However, with the development of human beings, man has destroyed the balance of nature. Water, air and soil have been badly polluted.Some kinds of animals and plants have died out completely. As a result, man is being punished by nature. Many people suffer a lot from all kinds of diseases caused by pollution. We should treat nature well and she will look after us.
