三、短文改错
Two years before, I traveled to Brazil and I rented for a car. Unfortunate, I had an accident and hit another car, and I needed to stay in a hospital for at least two week. I called my parents, so I did not tell them what had happened. I knew that they will be worried about myself because I was so farther away, and that my mother would not sleep if she knew. Therefore, I told them interested stories and how I was enjoying Brazil. As a result, nobody knew truth. I still think that it was the right thing to do.

二、七选五阅读题
本文是说明文。说明的中心是如何做好笔记。文章分三个层次进行说明:第一段就做好笔记的意义和目的进行说明;第二段和第三段说明做好笔记的方法;第四段说明速记要注意的事项。整篇文章说明层次清晰。
1. G 解析:根据本段下文出现的顺序词second,third可知此处应该是说明第一种方法,应该出现first,故选G。
2. E 解析:根据上句“你想在课堂讨论以及看教材或者做调查报告期间记笔记”,可知本句是“你也想掌握你自己做笔记的方法,故选E。
3. F 解析:根据上句“无论何时不管怎样做笔记,记住做笔记是一种选择的过程”,所以本句“那意味着你必须首先决定什么是足够重要的、可以记在笔记上”,故选F。
4. A 解析:本部分是作者给出建议,前三句都是采用祈使句的形式提出建议,可知此处也应该是祈使句结构,故选A。
5. D 解析:本段是在提醒速记要注意的事项。“做速记时,一定要确信自己能够理解你所做的符号,而且是你一直使用的符号”,所以本句应该是说明不这么做的后果,“否者,将来你会不认识你做的笔记”,故选D。
三、短文改错
文章讲述了两年前作者去巴西时候的经历。租了一辆小汽车然后因车祸住院,但他并没有告诉父母事故的情况,反而给父母讲述了一些有趣的事情。该题重点考查基础知识的应用,注意名词单复数,动词人称,形容词和副词的变化,时态、语态等基础知识。
1. before改为ago 解析:two years before侧重指从两年前到现在,须用完成时态,而此处表示过去时间,故而应该用two years ago。
2.rent后for删去 解析:rent为及物动词,后面直接跟物做宾语。 rent sth. 租某物
3. Unfortunate改为Unfortunately 解析:用副词来对整个句子进行修饰或说明,因此,第二句开头处的Unfortunate应改为副词Unfortunately.
4. week改为weeks 解析:week是可数名词,可数名词被two修饰,要用复数。
5. so改为but 解析:根据句意:我打了电话给父母,但并没有告诉他们发生车祸的事情。因此,把连词so改成but。
6. will改为would 解析:宾语从句的时态应该和主句保持一致。主句用一般过去时,宾语从句也应该用一般过去时,把will该为would。
7. myself改为me 解析:此处about的宾语与句子主语并非同一人,故而不能用反身代词,而用人称代词宾格。
8. farther改为far 解析:so用于修饰形容词副词的原级,而且此处不存在比较。
9. interested改为interesting 解析:此处表示有趣的故事,应该用interesting,而interested则表示“感到有趣的”。
10. truth前加the 解析:这里是特指,要用the truth。

三、阅读理解
阅读短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个项中,选出最佳选项。
When I first told people I was going to work in Cameroon,the most common reaction was:“Why?” The second was:“It’s in Africa; you’ll die!” The third:“Where is that?”
So let me give some answers. I was offered a job that looked interesting in a part of the world I’d never been to before. I’d also long had an interest in Africa,so I decided it was time to find out the reality.
A small amount of research showed that in more than 40 years since gaining independence,Cameroon has been a peaceful country with no wars. Not only were there no wars,but Cameroon is a food exporter to the region.
Now,after three years,I can say that these have been the healthiest years of my life! No malaria or any of the other frightening diseases you read about when Africa is mentioned. The worst thing that ever happened to me was about of food poisoning—once.
So what is it like to teach here? Well surprisingly not so different from teaching anywhere else.
Most students come to us with a bit of English in their heads. Cameroon is a bilingual country with French and English as official languages,while there are also close to 200 local ethnic languages in a country of 16 million people. French is the dominant language,spoken by about 80% of the population.
The local school system is very traditional and somewhat strict. Perhaps not surprisingly when there can be up to 150 students in the classroom (of which maybe 30 have the books,and there are probably seats for 70).
Like anywhere,students appreciate it if you know a bit about their country,and not just Roger Milla (top scorer of the 1990 World Cup,in case you’re wondering). It helps if you know the names of the ten provinces,know who the first president was,or can say a word in a local language.
So in conclusion:Cameroon isn’t just football. Nor is it war,poverty and disease. It’s just life and people,like anywhere else.
1. On hearing the writer’s decision,most people ________.
A. didn’t understand him
B. considered it as a joke
C. admired him
D. laughed at him
2. According to the passage,Cameroon is ________.
A. a country full of diseases
B. peaceful after liberation
C. a poor country,especially lack of food
D. quite different from others in education
3. What can we infer from the passage?
A. Food export may lead to many frightening diseases.
B. Most students in Cameroon do not need books.
C. Cameroon is not as bad as people commonly believed.
D. There must be a lot of people suffering from food poisoning.
4. What does the underlined word in the sixth paragraph mean?
A. Leading. B. Easy.
C. Only. D. Wonderful.
重点短语(必修 5 Unit 3 Life in the future)同步练习参考答案
一、单项选择
1. D 解析:说话人是在电话投诉销售员,答话人自然应该首先了解发生了什么事情。前三项分别表示“你一定是在开玩笑!”“太令人震惊了!”“为什么不呢?”,都不符合常识。
2. B 解析:句意:看到班主任来了,学生们一下子静了下来。catch sight of看见;in a flash瞬间,一刹那。
3. B 解析:考查动词短语辨析。pick up意为“恢复(身体健康)”,符合句意。
4. D 解析:句意:—他说我买新汽车是浪费钱。—难道你不认为这是吃不到葡萄说葡萄酸吗?lack缺乏;load负担;question问题;waste浪费。
5. D 解析:句意:上海市市长的发言给我留下了深刻的印象。impress sth. on sb.为固定搭配。
6. C 解析:句意:当我正要放弃它时,突然想到一个好主意。表示“某人想起……”,可用...hit / strike sb.或...flash upon one’s mind。
7. D 解析:考查形容词作状语。nervous and embarrassed“紧张又局促不安的”,描述主语的状态。
8. A 解析:考查非谓语动词作状语。句意:如果被提供给同等的机会,Frank和Billy也许都能完成这项任务。主语“both Frank and Billy”与give为逻辑上的被动关系,故排除B、C两项;D项表示目的,不符合句意,故被排除。
9. B 解析:由soon可知,这本书一经出版即获成功,故选instant (立即的,即刻的)。constant连续不断的;confident自信的;innocent清白的。
10. B 解析:guide (指引)与they之间是逻辑上的动宾关系,故选Guided。
二、语法填空
这是一篇励志故事。主人决定将掉进井里的驴子用土埋掉。驴子以土为台阶,最后走出井外,得以自救。
1. for。for hours指“几个小时”。
2. covering / to be covered。表示“需要被……”既可以接不定式的被动式,又可以接ing形式的主动式。
3. it。句型be worth it to do…指“值得做……”。
4. what。引导宾语从句。what在从句中作主语。
5. was astonished。“对……感到惊讶”:be astonished at。
6. that / which。引导定语从句。关系代词that / which在从句中作主语。
7. amazing。 形容词作后置定语,something amazing意为“令人惊讶的事情”。
8. As。意为“随着……”。
9. the。特指“井的边缘”。
10. by。介词短语by doing sth.作方式状语。
三、阅读理解
【文章解读】 本文叙述了作者对喀麦隆的印象。在作者看来,喀麦隆并不像人们所想象的那样可怕,这个非洲国家和平富饶,给作者留下了美好的印象。
【长难句解读】 It helps if you know the names of the ten provinces,know who the first president was,or can say a word in a local language.
句意:如果你知道那十个省份的名字,知道第一任总统是谁或者能够说上一句当地的话都是很有帮助的。
help意为“有所帮助”,是不及物动词;if引导条件状语从句,从句的第二个谓语know后面接一个由who引导的宾语从句。
1. A 解析:细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Why?”“It’s in Africa;you’ll die!”和“Where is that?”可知,很多人对作者要去喀麦隆工作是不能理解的。
2. B 解析:细节判断题。根据第三段中的“...in more than 40 years since gaining independence,Cameroon has been a peaceful country with no wars.”可知B项说法正确。since gaining independence与答案中的after liberation意思相同。
3. C 解析:推理判断题。作者在第三段就说独立后的喀麦隆不但没有战争,而且是非洲地区的食品输出国。第四段中作者又说在这里的三年是他一生中最健康的时候。串联起来不难看出作者实际上是在证明喀麦隆绝对不像人们所想象的那么差。
4. A 解析:词义猜测题。根据该词后的“spoken by about 80% of the population”(被80%的人说)可以判断出法语是主要的语言。

三、书面表达:
Life in the future
As time goes by, there are going to be big changes in our everyday lives. For example, when we are hungry, we don’t need to cook in a hurry. Just take some pills, and everything will be OK. When we are free, we can go anywhere by spacecraft. It will be very cheap, just like taking a taxi now. And of course, if we want to see what is like under the sea, just travel down there in a flying object like UFO. Maybe there will be a lot of cities and people living there. I think it’ll be very easy to travel anywhere, not only in our world, but also in space and in the deep sea.
写作指导:
1. 分析三幅图之间的联系。既然要求使用三幅图来进行写作,就一定有连接点。
2. 弄明白第一幅图所给的词语take pills only是什么意思;联想一下,然后考虑它与后面的两幅图有什么关系。什么情况下可以乘spaceship旅行呢?第三幅图中城市怎么会和鱼儿在一起呢?会不会是和take pills有关呢?
3. 分析完之后,要弄明白,本文写作时要注意的时态问题!以将来时间为主,be going to的形式最佳。但别忘了if条件句。
