进阶训练第二层
Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
What
is
language
for？Some
people
seem
to
think
it's
for
practicing
grammar
rules
and
learning
lists
of
words—the
longer
the
lists,
the
better.
That's
wrong.
Language
is
for
the
exchange
of
ideas
and
information.
It's
meaningless
knowing
all
about
a
language
if
you
can't
use
it
freely.
Many
students
I
have
met
know
hundreds
of
grammar
rules,
but
they
can't
speak
correctly
or
fluently(流利地).
They
are
afraid
of
making
mistakes.
One
shouldn't
be
afraid
of
making
mistakes
when
speaking
a
foreign
language.
Native
speakers
make
mistakes
and
break
rules,
too.
Bernard
Shaw
once
wrote，“Foreigners_often_speak_English_too_correctly.”But
the
mistakes
that
native
speakers
make
are
different
from
those
that
Chinese
students
make.
They're
English
mistakes
in
the
English
language.
And
if
enough
native
speakers
break
a
rule,
it
is
no
longer
a
rule.
What
used
to
be
wrong
becomes
right.
People
not
only
make
history,
they
also
make
language.
But
a
people
can
only
make
its
own
language.
It
can't
make
another
people's
language.
So
Chinese
students
should
pay
attention
to
grammar,
but
they
shouldn't
overdo
it.
They
should
put
communication
(交际)
first.
1．Language
is
used
to
________.
A．express
oneself
B．practice
grammar
rules
C．talk
with
foreigners
only
D．learn
lists
of
words
2．Generally
speaking,
when
an
American
or
an

he
or
she
________.
A．never
makes
mistakes
B．often
makes
mistakes
C．can't
avoid
making
mistakes
D．always
makes

3．The
underlined
sentence“Foreigners
often
speak
English
too
correctly.”means
that“________.”
A．Foreigners
speak
correct
English
B．Foreigners
speak
incorrect
English
C．Foreigners
speak
English
according
to
the
grammar
rules
D．Foreigners
never
make
mistakes
when
they
speak
English
4．When
we
speak
a
foreign
language,
we
should
________.
A．speak
in
a
Chinese
way
B．speak
by
the
rules
C．speak
to
native
speakers
D．not
be
afraid
of
making
mistakes
B
Do
you
think
the
United
Kingdom
and
the
United
States
are
alike？Winston
Churchill
once
joked
that
the
people
of
Britain
and
the
people
of
America
are
separated
only
by
their
language.
Do
you
think
that
is
true？The
British
and
the
Americans
both
speak
English
as
the
official
language.
However,
each
uses
some
different
words.
We
Americans
are
similar
to
the
British.
After
all,
our
country
was
once
owned
by
the
UK,
so
we
have
a
lot
in
common.
But
there
are
many
differences
between
us.
The
UK
has
a
king
or
queen,
and
the
leader
of
the
government
is
the
Prime
Minister.
The
US
has
no
kings
or
queens.
Our
leader
is
the
President.
Both
the
British
and
Americans
use
pounds
and
ounces,
pints,
quarts,
and
gallons.
Both
use
miles,
yards,
and
feet.
Our
money
is
different,
though.
The
British
use
pounds
and
pence.
Americans
use
dollars
and
cents.
Driving
in
a
car
is
very
different
in
the
UK.
They
drive
on
the
left
side
of
the
road.
We
drive
on
the
right.
What
we
call
the
hood
of
the
car,
the
British
call
the“bonnet”.
British
cars
run
on
“petrol”，
which
we
call
gasoline.
In
our
everyday
life,
we
do
many
of
the
same
things
as
the
British.
But
we
describe
them
differently.
A
young
mother
here
might
push
a
baby
in
a
baby
carriage.
A
British
mum
pushes
a“pram”.
The
British
watch“telly”，
while
we
watch
TV.
We
like
to
eat
French
fries,
but
the
British
call
them“chips”.
Millions
of
Americans
drink
coffee,
but
most
British
prefer
tea.
So
we
are
different
in
many
ways.
But
we
stay
friendly
anyway.
5．What
can
we
know
from
Winston
Churchill's
joke?
A．The
UK
and
the
US
are
very
similar.
B．The
people
of
the
UK
and
the
US
are
the
same.
C．The
languages
of
the
UK
and
the
US
are
the
same.
D．There
are
many
differences
between
the
UK
and
the
US.
6．The
British
and
Americans
both
use
________.
A．miles
and
dollars
B．pints
and
pence
C．gallons
and
feet
D．yards
and
cents
7．Which
of
the
following
is
used
by
the
British?
A．TV.
B．Pram.
C．Hood.
D．French
fries.
8．What
is
the
best
title
for
the
passage?
A．We
Stay
Friendly
B．A
Common
Language?
C．English
as
the
Official
Language
D．Differences
Between
the
UK
and
the

Ⅱ.七选五
Want
to
find
out
how
you
can
learn
a
new
language
quickly,
without
the
need
for
expensive
classes
or
language
learning
software？__1__
You
just
need
to
be
willing
to
work
hard
and
not
be
afraid
to
make
mistakes.
The
following
specific
tips
may
help
you.
__2__
The
best
way
to
learn
a
new
language
is
to
speak
it.
Too
often,
people
spend
all
of
their
time
studying
grammar
and
memorizing
list
of
words.
Speaking
with
a
real,
live
person
will
help
you
to
feel
much
more
motivated
about
learning
the
language
than
staring
at
a
book
or
computer
screen.
Study
the
language
every
day.
People
often
have
claimed
to
have
studied
a
language“for
five
years”and
still
not
be
fluent.
But
when
they
say
five
years,
they
probably
mean
that
they
studied
the
language
for
only
a
couple
of
hours
a
week
over
that
entire
time
period.
__3__—if
you
want
to
learn
a
new
language
successfully,
you're
going
to
have
to
study
the
language
every
day.
Carry
a
dictionary
at
all
times.
Carrying
a
dictionary
with
you
will
serve
you
a
lot
of
time.
__4__
It
can
be
an
actual,
physical
dictionary,
or
a
dictionary
app
on
your
phone—you
just
need
to
be
able
to
consult
it
quickly
whenever
you
need
a
word.
Watch,
listen,
read
and
write
in
your
chosen
language.
Possibly
the
easiest
thing
you
can
do
is
watch
television
shows
or
movies
in
the
language
you
are
trying
to
learn.
__5__
Besides,
download
podcasts
or
tunes
in
to
radio
stations
in
your
new
language.
This
is
a
great
way
to
immerse
yourself
in
the
language
while
you're
on
the
go.
A．Let's
get
one
thing
clear.
B．There
are
really
no
secrets.
C．So
get
one
as
soon
as
possible!
D．Connect
with
a
native
speaker.
E．Language
learning
is
based
on
repetition.
F．Carrying
a
dictionary
will
allow
you
to
find
the
necessary
word.
G．You
should
also
attempt
to
read
and
write
in
your
new
language.
Ⅲ.语法填空
Keeping
a
diary
in
English
is
one
of
the
effective
ways
1.________
(improve)
our
English
writing
ability.
Compared
with
other
forms
of
writing,
it
is
shorter
and
2.________
(take)
less
time.
It
can
help
us
to
develop
the
habit
of
thinking
in
English.
3.________
we
keep
practicing,
gradually
we'll
learn
how
to
express
ourselves
in
English.
In
keeping
a
diary
in
English，we
4.________
(certain)
run
up
against
many
5.________
(difficult).
In
the
first
place,
6.________
often
happens
that
we
have
trouble
7.________
(find)
suitable
words
and
phrases
to
give
expression
to
our
mind.
Secondly,
there
are
many
idiomatic
(习语的)
ways
of
saying
things
in
Chinese.
And
it
is
extremely
hard
for
us
to
put
them
into
English
properly.
As
far
as
I
am
concerned,
my
8.________
(suggest)
is
that
we
should
always
have
a
notebook
and
a
Chinese?English
dictionary
within
easy
reach.
Whenever
something
beats
us,
we
can
first
put
it
down
in
our
notebook
and
then
look
it
up
in
our
dictionary.
We
can
also
turn
9.________
our
English
teacher
for
help,
if
necessary.
In
short,
I
believe
that
it
is
very
10.________
(use)
to
keep
a
diary
in
English
for
the
development
of
our
writing
skills.

1．答案与解析：yourself 考查反身代词。句意：你有没有问过自己为什么人们在学习英语时经常遇到困难？本空在句中作宾语，且主语和本空人称一致，故本空应用反身代词。
2．答案与解析：learning 考查动名词。have
trouble
doing
sth.意为“做某事有困难”，故本空应用动名词作宾语。
3．答案与解析：whether 考查宾语从句。句意：我没问过，直到有一天我五岁的儿子问我hamburger(汉堡包)里是否有ham(火腿)。本空引导宾语从句，从句中不缺成分，但需要补充“是否”的意思，故本空应用连接词whether。
4．答案与解析：confusing 考查形容词。句意：即使是最小的单词也会令人困惑。本空在句中作表语，且主语为the
smallest
of
words，故本空应用形容词confusing“令人困惑的”。

alarm和动词hear之间为被动关系，故本空应用一般现在时的被动语态。

invented 考查时态及语态。句意：英语是由人而不是电脑发明的，它反映了人类的创造力。根据句意可知，“发明”这一动作发生在过去，应用一般过去时，且English和动词invent之间为被动关系，故本空应用一般过去时的被动语态。
8．答案与解析：stars 考查名词单复数。句意：那就是为什么星星out(出来)时是看得见的，但灯out(熄灭)时是看不见的。根据空后动词are可知，本空应用名词复数形式。
9．答案与解析：invisible 考查形容词。根据上题所给句意可知，本空应用提示词visible的反义词。invisible“看不见的”。
10．答案与解析：but 考查连词。句意：那就是为什么当我给我的手表wind
up(上发条)时，它开始运转，但当我wind
up(结束)这篇文章时，它结束了。根据句意可知，本空前后分句为转折关系，故应用连词but。
关键能力综合练
Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
【语篇解读】 本文旨在告诉人们，在学习语言时，我们虽然要注意语法，但是不能过于担心语法错误而不去交流。
1．答案与解析：A 细节理解题。由第四句话“Language
is
for
the
exchange
of
ideas
and
information.”可知，交流当然需要表达，所以语言就是用于表达自己的。
2．答案与解析：C 细节理解题。由第一段中第九句话“Native
speakers
make
mistakes
and
break
rules,
too.”可知，犯错是无法避免的。
3．答案与解析：C 推理判断题。联系上文，可推理判断外国人讲英语都太恪守语法规则。
4．答案与解析：D 细节理解题。由第一段第八句“One
shouldn't
be
afraid
of
making
mistakes
when
speaking
a
foreign
language.”可知，当一个人讲外语的时候，不应该害怕会犯错误。
B
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了美国和英国有相似点，双方都把英语作为官方语言，但是两个国家在语言使用方面存在不同点，最后指出两个国家虽然不相同，但仍然保持友好。
5．答案与解析：A 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Winston
Churchill
once
joked
that
the
people
of
Britain
and
the
people
of
America
are
separated
only
by
their
language.”可知，丘吉尔曾开玩笑说英美两国人只有语言不同，他应该是认为美国人和英国人非常相似，故选A项。
6．答案与解析：C 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Both
the
British
and
Americans
use
pounds
and
ounces,
pints,
quarts,
and
gallons.
Both
use
miles,
yards,
and
feet.”可知，美国人和英国人都使用gallons和feet，故选C项。
7．答案与解析：B 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“A
British
mum
pushes
a
‘pram’.
The
British
watch
‘telly’，
while
we
watch
TV.
We
like
to
eat
French
fries,
but
the
British
call
them
‘chips’”可知，英国人使用“pram”一词，故选B项。
8．答案与解析：B 主旨大意题。这篇文章讲的是美国和英国都把英语作为官方语言，但是英美在用词方面有许多不同之处。B项用疑问的方式表明英美语言既有相似点又有不同点。故选B项。
Ⅱ.七选五
【语篇解读】 本文介绍了学习一门新语言的方法。
1．答案与解析：B 根据下文“You
just
need
to
be
willing
to
work
hard
and
not
be
afraid
to
make
mistakes.”可知学习语言没有什么秘密可言。
2．答案与解析：D 根据第二段中的“The
best
way
to
learn
a
new
language
is
to
speak
it.”和“Speaking
with
a
real，live
person
will
help
you
to
feel
much
more
motivated
about
learning
the
language
than
staring
at
a
book
or
computer
screen.”可知学习一门新语言最好的方式就是和说母语的人进行交流。
3．答案与解析：A 根据上文“But
when
they
say
five
years,
they
probably
mean
that
they
studied
the
language
for
only
a
couple
of
hours
a
week
over
that
entire
time
period.”以及下文“if
you
want
to
learn
a
new
language
successfully,
you're
going
to
have
to
study
the
language
every
day.”此处表示强调，“让我们弄清楚一件事”。
4．答案与解析：C C项中的one指代上文“Carrying
a
dictionary
with
you
will
serve
you
a
lot
of
time.”中的a
dictionary。
5．答案与解析：G 句意：你还应该尝试用你的新语言进行阅读和写作。根据上文“Possibly
the
easiest
thing
you
can
do
is
watch
television
shows
or
movies
in
the
language
you
are
trying
to
learn”，可知，您可以做的最简单的事情是用您想要学习的语言观看电视节目或电影，故选G。
Ⅲ.语法填空
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了用英语记日记的好处和有哪些困难并给出了建议。
1．答案与解析：to
improve 考查非谓语动词。此处是动词不定式做后置定语，故答案为to
improve。
2．答案与解析：takes 考查动词时态。本文时态为一般现在时，并且主语为it，所以谓语动词为第三人称单数形式，故填takes。
3．答案与解析：If 考查连词。因为主句为一般将来时，从句为一般现在时，所以考虑该句为状语从句。If意为“如果”，表示条件，符合语境。
4．答案与解析：certainly 考查副词。certainly修饰动词，故填certainly。
5．答案与解析：difficulties 考查名词单复数。many后接可数名词的复数形式，故填difficulties。
6．答案与解析：it 考查代词。分析句子可知，该句考查“it
happens＋that从句”结构，此处it是形式主语，真正的主语是that引导的主语从句。
7．答案与解析：finding 考查非谓语动词。固定搭配：have
trouble(in)doing
sth.“在做某事上有困难”，故填finding。
8．答案与解析：suggestion 考查词性转换。形容词性物主代词my修饰名词，故填suggestion。
9．答案与解析：to 考查介词。turn
to
sb.
for
help“向某人求助”，故填to。
10．答案与解析：useful 考查形容词。形容词useful在句中做表语，故填useful。课时作业(三) Developing

关键能力综合练
进阶训练第二层
Ⅰ.阅读理解
Language
is
born
of
culture
and
in
turn
reflects
the
history
of
a
culture.
This
is
clear
when
we
compare
English
in
Britain,
the
United
States
and
Australia.
Of
the
three
dialects,
British
English
has
the
most
confusing
grammar
and
spelling
rules.
This
is
probably
because
the
development
of
English
has
been
under
the
control
of
the
upper
class.
The
modern
English
language
came
into
being
in
the
18th
century.
The
upper
class
who
spoke
French
wanted
to
show
their
influence
and
make
themselves
different
from
the
uneducated
working
people.
In
other
words,
British
English
reflects
the
English
character
with
class.
The
US
dialect
is
generally
recognized
as
the
easiest
to
understand.
Compared
with
British
English,
its
spelling
is
more
connected
with
its
pronunciation.
And
its
grammatical
rules
are
much
easier
to
follow.
What's
more,
its
words
are
simpler
to
pronounce.
For
foreigner,
it's
much
easier
to
learn.
That's
why
American
English
is
more
popular
in
the
world.
The
reason
why
American
English
is
simpler
than
British
English
is
connected
with
its
special
history.
British
English
was
mainly
influenced
by
the
upper
class.
But
American
upper
class
didn't
exist
when
American
English
was
born.
American
English
was
based
on
the
dialects
spoken
by
working
people
from
different
countries.
So
the
formation
of
American
English
was
based
on
a
rule
to
help
all
the
working
people
with
different
cultural
backgrounds
communicate
more
easily.
Australian
English
is
different
from
British
and
American
English.
It
is
the
most
vulgar
(粗俗的)
of
the
three.
Actually
it
has
a
tendency
to
show
its
invention,
disrespect
and
humor.
At
times,
this
can
make
it
almost
impossible
to
understand
and
quite
impolite
to
some
educated
speakers.
That
is
partly
connected
with
special
identity
of
the
early
settlers.
1．Why
is
British
English
more
confusing
than
American
English?
A．Because
it
was
influenced
by
the
upper
class.
B．Because
English
people
are
more
educated.
C．Because
it
was
totally
created
by
Frenchmen.
D．Because
England
was
more
powerful
in
the
past.
2．American
English
is
more
popular
than
British
English
worldwide
because
________.
A．it
has
fewer
words
B．the
US
has
a
shorter
history
C．the
US
has
a
larger
population
D．it
is
easier
to
learn
for
foreigners
3．What
can
we
infer
from
the
passage?
A．Australian
English
is
easy
to
understand.
B．Australian
English
is
preferred
by
educated
people.
C．Modern
English
became
popular
in
the
18th
century.
D．American
English
may
develop
from
working
people's
language.
4．Which
of
the
following
can
best
describe
Australian
English?
A．Polite.
B．Rude.
C．Welcome.
D．Special.
Ⅱ.七选五
English
has
been
called
one
of
the
most
difficult
languages
for
non?native
speakers
to
learn.
One
reason
is
that
English
has
so
many
rules.
__1__
Sometimes,
this
leaves
learners
confused.
For
example,
the
order
of
words
in
a
sentence
can
be
tricky.
__2__
The
pronunciation
of
English
words
cannot
always
be
judged
by
their
spelling.
For
example,
there
are
at
least
six
ways
to
pronounce
the
group
of
letters
spelled
o?u?g?h.
And,
maybe
the
worst
thing
of
all
is
that
there
are
many
idioms,
or
expressions,
in
English.
__3__
So,
it
is
comforting
to
know
that
learning
root
words
can
help
a
non?native
speaker
use
English.
__4__
Root
words
can
help
you
to
break
down
large,
new
words
into
smaller
units
to
discover
their
meanings.
Learning
just
one
root
word
can
help
you
understand
several
words
in
English.
__5__
Then
where
can
a
root
be
found？A
root
can
be
any
part
of
a
word
that
carries
meaning：the
beginning,
middle
or
end.
Prefixes,
bases,
and
suffixes
are
types
of
roots.
The
prefix
appears
at
the
beginning
of
a
word,
the
base
in
the
middle
and
the
suffix
at
the
end.
A．A
root
word
is
the
most
basic
form
of
a
word.
B．The
English
have
always
been
fond
of
all
kinds
of
rules.
C．You
could
say
we
use
idioms
like
they're
going
out
of
style.
D．And
there
are
almost
as
many
exceptions(例外)of
those
rules!
E．Most
English
root
words
came
from
the
Greek
and
Latin
languages.
F．Another
reason
why
English
is
hard
to
learn
is
the
pronunciation
of
its
words.
G．So,
by
learning
20
or
30
root
words,
you
can
increase
your
vocabulary
to
hundreds
of
more
new
words.
Ⅲ.完形填空
I
am
an
Australian
teacher
at
a
high
school
in
Sydney.
A
few
years
ago,
I
went
to
Japan
to
teach
__1__
for
one
year.
I
quickly
__2__
that
schools
in
the
two
countries
are
different.
In
my
first
class,
I
put
the
students
in
__3__，
and
asked
them
to
__4__
the
question：Who
has
more
advantages
in
society：men
or
women？In
my
class
in
Australia,
this
__5__
would
successfully
get
everyone
talking
in
English.
So,
when
I
__6__
the
same
lesson
with
my
Japanese
students,
I
was
__7__
that
the
same
things
would
__8__.
Instead
of
a
__9__
debate(辩论)with
different
opinions,
there
was
almost
silence.
The
students
whispered(低语，耳语)briefly
and
quietly
within
their
groups.
Then
a
spokesperson
gave
one
answer
__10__
the
group.
I
was
__11__
at
that
time,
and
understand
what
being
team
player
means.
A
team
player
puts
himself
last,
and
puts
his
__12__
first.
In
a
Japanese
class,
children
are
often
__13__
into
groups
and
taught
how
to
study
or
play
together.
In
Australia,
it
is
the
individual
who
is
important,
not
the
group.
At
first,
I
felt
that
Australian
culture
was
better,
__14__
after
a
year
in
Japan,
I
learned
that
cultures
are
__15__，
and
that
it
is
not
a
question
of
which
one
is
better.

关键能力综合练
Ⅰ.阅读理解
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文，讲述的是一国语言能反映出一个国家的文化历史。
1．答案与解析：A 细节理解题。根据第二段“Of
the
three
dialects，British
English
has
the
most
confusing
grammar
and
spelling
rules.
This
is
probably
because
the
development
of
English
has
been
under
the
control
of
the
upper
class.”可知，是因为英式英语的发展受到上流社会的影响。
2．答案与解析：D 细节理解题。根据第三段的“Compared
with
British
English,
its
spelling
is
more
connected
with
its
pronunciation...
That's
why
American
English
is
more
popular
in
the
world.”可知，是因为美式英语更容易学。
3．答案与解析：D 推理判断题。根据第四段的“American
English
was
based
on
the
dialects
spoken
by
working
people
from
different
countries.
So
the
formation
of
American
English
was
based
on
a
rule
to
help
all
the
working
people
with
different
cultural
backgrounds
communicate
more
easily.”可推测美式英语是来源于劳动人民的语言。
4．答案与解析：B 细节理解题。根据第五段的“It
is
the
most
vulgar
of
the
three.
Actually
it
has
a
tendency
to
show
its
invention,
disrespect
and
humor.”可知答案。
Ⅱ.七选五
【语篇解读】 英语被称为非母语学习者最难学的语言之一。原因之一是英语有很多规则，第二个原因是单词的发音多变。而学习词根可以帮助背诵和理解单词。
1．答案与解析：D 根据空前句“One
reason
is
that
English
has
so
many
rules.”可知，英语有许多规则；根据空后句“Sometimes,
this
leaves
learners
confused.”可知，这有时会让学习者感到困惑。故D项(例外几乎和规则一样多。)符合上下文文意。
2．答案与解析：F 根据空后句“The
pronunciation
of
English
words
cannot
always
be
judged
by
their
spelling.”及所举的例子可知，本段说英语发音与拼写的关系。F项(英语难学的另一个原因是单词的发音。)符合语境，而且根据全文来说这也是第二个难学的原因。
3．答案与解析：C 根据空前句“And,
maybe
the
worst
thing
of
all
is
that
there
are
many
idioms,
or
expressions,
in
English.”可知，也许最糟糕的是，英语中有很多习语或表达。C项中idioms为复现词。
4．答案与解析：A 根据空前句中的“learning
root
words
can
help
a
non?native
speaker
use
English”可知，学习词根可以帮助非母语学习者使用英语。根据空后句“Root
words
can
help
you
to
break
down
large,
new
words
into
smaller
units
to
discover
their
meanings.”可知，词根对英语学习有很大的帮助，是基础。故A项(词根是词的最基本形式。)符合上下文文意。
5．答案与解析：G 根据空前句“Learning
just
one
root
word
can
help
you
understand
several
words
in
English.”可知，只学习一个词根就能帮你理解好几个单词，故G项(所以，通过学习二三十个词根，你可以将你的词汇量增加到上百个新单词。)符合文意。
Ⅲ.完形填空
【语篇解读】 本文是夹叙夹议文。一位澳大利亚的老师到日本教英语，发现日本的学生与澳大利亚的学生的一个很大不同在于日本学生从小注重团队意识的培养，由此感悟文化的不同。
1．答案与解析：B 考查名词。根据文章首句和第二段中的“...，this
________
would
successfully
get
everyone
talking
in
English.”可知作者去日本教授英语，故选B。
2．答案与解析：C 考查动词。根据对全文内容的把握，此句为下文的总结句，是说我根据自己的切身经历，很快“意识到”(realized)两个国家的学校的不同。recognized意为“认可，承认”，compared意为“比较”，considered意为“认为，考虑”，故选C。
3．答案与解析：A 考查名词。根据文章第三段和最后一段的信息可知，在日本课堂上往往进行“小组”(group)活动，故选A。
4．答案与解析：C 考查动词。根据第三段中的“Instead
of
a
__9__
debate(辩论)with
different
opinions,
there
was
almost
silence.”暗示可知作者让他们去“讨论”(discuss)，这里的“debate”是关键词，故选C。
5．答案与解析：B 考查名词。根据上文“Who
has
more
advantages
in
society：men
or
women？”可知这是一个讨论的“话题”(topic)。object意为“物体；目标；宾语；对象”，故选B。
6．答案与解析：D 考查动词。根据with可排除give。根据第二段首句“In
my
first
class”可知作者想在日本课堂上“尝试一下”(try)。manage意为“管理，经营；设法干成”，故选D。
7．答案与解析：C 考查形容词。根据“this
__5__
would
successfully
get
everyone
talking
in
English.”可知作者很“自信”(confident)，故选C。
8．答案与解析：D 考查动词。作者认为同样的情景会在日本的课堂上“发生”(happen)，故选D。
9．答案与解析：A 考查形容词。根据“Instead
of
a
__9__
debate(辩论)with
different
opinions,
there
was
almost
silence.”可知此空和“silence”形成对比，故选A。
10．答案与解析：B 考查介词。“for”意为“代表”，这个介词可以和a
spokesperson呼应，故选B。
11．答案与解析：C 考查形容词。对于反差很大的课堂氛围，作者自然很“吃惊”(surprised)。后文中的“but
I
now
realize
that
they
were
acting
as
a
team”也是暗示，故选C。
12．答案与解析：B 考查名词。根据“understand
what
being
team
player
means.

13．答案与解析：B 考查动词。根据第四段中的解释可知日本学生经常进行分组活动，故选B。
14．答案与解析：C 考查连词。根据文章最后一句“that
it
is
not
a
question
of
which
one

15．答案与解析：C 考查形容词。根据全文内容和第一段最后一句可知C项正确，故选C。
Ⅳ.语法填空
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了在“英语学习者自白”博客中，一位网友分享的关于语言误解的趣事。
1．答案与解析：called 考查过去分词。句意：几周前我们开了一个叫作“英语学习者自白”的博客。called是过去分词作后置定语，修饰前面的blog，相当于一个定语从句a
blog
which
was
called，省略了关系代词和be动词。
2．答案与解析：for 考查固定搭配。for
sb.
to
do
sth.
为了让某人做某事。句意：这个博客是为了让大家分享一些关于语言误解的故事。
3．答案与解析：discussion 考查名词。句意：感谢到目前为止参与讨论的每一个人。
4．答案与解析：difficulty 考查名词。句意：一位网友描述了他在使用两个听起来相似但意义迥异的英语单词时所遇到的困难。此处应用名词。
5．答案与解析：which/that 考查关系代词。先行词为two
English
language
words.在从句中作主语，故填关系代词which/that。
6．答案与解析：belongings 考查名词。句意：当他正在整理他的物品时，一个同事走进他们共用的房间。be
doing
sth.
when为固定搭配，这里的when表示的是时间点，意为“就在这时”。
7．答案与解析：to
use 考查动词不定式。句意：亨利写道，他对这个问题感到惊讶，因要使用英语而感到很兴奋。动词不定式to
use作excited的原因状语。
8．答案与解析：the 考查定冠词。the后跟名词。the通常表示特指，a/an通常表示泛指。本句中使用the特指上文中提到的笑话。
9．答案与解析：explained 考查时态。句意：然后他的新朋友解释说“肥皂”是你用来清洗自己的东西，“汤”是你喝的东西。根据全文的时态可知，此处应用一般过去时。
10．答案与解析：yourself “肥皂”是你用来清洗自己的东西，故填反身代词。课时作业(四) Writing

Ⅰ.阅读理解
There
are
many
useful
suggestions
that
can
help
one
to
improve
English.
Here
are
some
of
them
to
increase
one's
English
language
vocabulary.
Learning
English
vocabulary
is
about
much
more
than
just
learning
the
right
words.
It
is
based
on
understanding
important
words
and
expressions.
Learning
a
word
will
not
help
very
much
if
you
quickly
forget
it.
Researches
show
that
it
takes
from
10
to
20
repetitions(重复)to
really
make
a
word
part
of
your
vocabulary.
Since
most
words
are
learned
from
how
they
are
used
in
context,
the
more
words
one
is
shown，the
better
vocabulary
one
will
have.
Keep
a
piece
of
paper
close
to
you.
When
you
read,
pay
close
attention
to
the
word
you
do
not
know,
write
the
word
down
and
try
to
understand
its
meaning
from
the
context.
Then
look
up
the
word
in
a
dictionary.
Remember
that
if
you
do
not
use
English
words
that
you
have
just
learned
in
conversation
or
writing,
you
will
forget
them
very
quickly.
So
the
best
way
to
learn
new
words
effectively
is
just
by
trying
to
use
them
in
conversation
and
writing.
And
remember
that
practice
is
the
key
to
fluent
spoken
English.
Building
vocabulary
is
a
life?long
task.
Remember：“In
the
beginning
was
the
word.”Your
future
could
depend
on
how
rich
your
vocabulary
is.
It
will
also
determine
the
quality
of
your
communication.
1．We
can
learn
from
the
passage
that
learning
English
vocabulary
________.
A．is

the
right
words
B．is

more
and

B．If

you

you

C．It

D．Practice

is
________.
A．trying
to
use
them

B．writing
them
down

C．always

D．reading

阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
My
husband
and
I
were
excited
about
shopping
for
our
first
home.
But
our
money
was
limited,
and
none
of
the
houses
in
our
price
range
(范围)
seemed
excellent.
One
agent
recommended
a
house.
Although
her
description
sounded
wonderful,
the
price
was
beyond
our
range,
so
we
declined
(谢绝).
But
she
kept
urging
us
to
have
a
look.
We
finally
did
and
it
was
love
at
first
sight.
It
was
our
home,
small
and
charming,
overlooking
a
quiet
lake.
Walking
through
the
rooms
and
talking
with
the
owners,
a
nice
elderly
couple,
we
felt
the
warmth
and
happiness
of
their
marriage
within
that
home.
As
perfect
as
it
was,
the
price
remained
too
high
for
us.
But
every
day,
we
would
sit
by
the
lake,
looking
at
the
house
and
dreaming
of
what
it
would
be
like
to
live
there.
Days
later,
we
made
an
offer
—
far
below
the
asking
price.
Surprisingly,
they
didn't
laugh
at
us.
They
renewed
their
offer
instead.
It
was
also
much
more
than
we
could
afford,
but
far
less
than
the
original
asking
price.
The
next
day,
we
got
a
disappointing
message
that
another
buyer
had
offered
a
much
higher
price.
Even
so,
we
decided
to
talk
with
the
owners
directly.
We
made
our
final
offer,
which
was
still
thousands
of
dollars
less
than
the
other
buyer's
bid
(出价).
We
knew
it,
but
we
had
to
try.
Nobody
knew
whether
we
could
get
it.
注意：
1．所续写短文的词数应为150左右；
2．续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好。

关键能力综合练
Ⅰ.阅读理解
【语篇解读】 你知道如何增加英语词汇量吗？理解词汇和短语的意思，通过上下文学习，在对话和写作中运用，这些方法都对增加词汇量大有裨益。
1．答案与解析：D 细节理解题。根据第二段的“Learning
English
vocabulary
is
about
much
more
than
just
learning
the
right
words.
It
is
based
on
understanding
important
words
and
expressions.”可知，学习英语词汇不仅仅是学习正确的单词，学习词汇应该建立在理解词汇和短语的基础之上，故选D项。
2．答案与解析：C 细节理解题。根据第五段第一句“Building
vocabulary
is
a
life?long
task.”可知，发展词汇量是一个终生的任务，故C项表达与文章内容不符。
3．答案与解析：A 细节理解题。由第四段第二句“So
the
best
way
to
learn
new
words
effectively
is
just
by
trying
to
use
them
in
conversation
and
writing.”可知，学习新的词汇最好的方法是在对话和写作中多加运用，故选A项。
4．答案与解析：A 主旨大意题。文章讲的是增加词汇量的方法，如：理解词汇和短语的意思，通过上下文学习，在对话和写作中运用。由此可知A项正确。
Ⅱ.七选五
【语篇解读】 眼睛是心灵的窗户，所以一定要保护好我们的眼睛。要养成良好的阅读习惯，要让眼睛定时休息，不要盯着太阳看，还要佩戴合适的眼镜。
1．答案与解析：A 下文说的是不要躺着或走路时看书，每读一个小时的书之后要让眼睛休息一会儿，所以上文应该是告诉我们要养成良好的阅读习惯。故答案应为A。
2．答案与解析：E 上文说“不要盯着太阳看也不要在黑暗的地方读书”，下文说“这样很容易伤害你的眼睛”，故E项“尽管你戴着太阳镜也不要直接看太阳”衔接上下文，故答案选E。
3．答案与解析：F 上文说“如果你感觉眼睛有了问题，要快点去检查。”所以下文应是“通过定期检查，眼睛的问题能够早发现和治疗”，故答案选F。
4．答案与解析：B 根据下文“You
can
close
your
eyes
for
a
few
seconds
or
look
into
the
distance
for
one
or
two
minutes.”可知，本段讲的是让眼睛休息，故答案选B。
5．答案与解析：D 上文说“当你选择眼镜的时候，要当心”。所以下文应是“不合适的眼镜会使你的眼睛出问题”，故答案选D。
Ⅲ.语法填空
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文，介绍了中国筷子的历史、分类以及使用筷子时的注意事项。
1．答案与解析：an play
an
important
role
in为固定搭配，意为“在……中起重要作用”。故填an。
2．答案与解析：tools tool为可数名词，one
of后接可数名词复数，所以此处应用复数形式。故填tools。
3．答案与解析：was
recorded It
is/was
recorded
that...为固定句型，因动作发生在过去，所以应用一般过去时。故填was
recorded。
4．答案与解析：earlier 根据语境和后面的than可知应用比较级。故填earlier。
5．答案与解析：that It
is/was
believed
that...为固定句型，意为“人们认为……”。故填that。
6．答案与解析：based 本句已有谓语，所以设空处应用非谓语动词，base与其所修饰的five
groups之间是逻辑上的被动关系，所以应用过去分词。故填based。
7．答案与解析：are 此处是说竹筷是中国家庭中最受欢迎的，所以应用一般现在时，且主语Bamboo
chopsticks为复数，所以谓语动词应用复数形式，故填are。
8．答案与解析：to
avoid 在there
be句型中，作定语的不定式可用主动形式表示被动含义。故填to
avoid。
9．答案与解析：In in
addition为固定搭配，意为“另外”。故填In。
10．答案与解析：truly 修饰形容词interested表示“确实”，应用副词truly。

Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
Here
are
a
few
tips
we've
put
together
to
help
you
learn
English
well.
Speak,
speak,
speak!
Practise
speaking
as
often
as
you
can—even
speaking
to
yourself
is
good
practice.
Try
recording
yourself
whenever
you
can.
Compare
your
pronunciation
with
the
master
version,
see
how
you
can
do
better
and
have
another
try.
If
you
do
this
several
times,
you
will
find
that
each
version
is
better
than
the
last.
Why
not
learn
with
someone
else?
It
helps
if
you
can
learn
with
someone
else.
If
you
can
persuade
a
friend
or
a
family
member
to
study
with
you,
it
will
make
you
keep
working.
Don't
get
stuck
by
a
word
you
don't
know.
Practice
improvising(即兴的)ways
of
getting
your
meaning
across
while
speaking
spontaneously(本能地),
even
if
you
don't
know
the
exact
words
or
phrases.
Think
of
things
you
might
want
to
say
whenever
you
have
spare
time.
Use
facial
expressions,
hand
movements,
anything
to
get
your
meaning
across.
Language
learning
is
also
about
intuition(直觉)．
Guesswork
is
an
important
way
to
learn
a
new
language.
When
listening
to
recorded
material,
you
aren't
expected
to
understand
everything
in
the
first
round.
If
you
play
the
same
piece
several
times,
you
will
most
probably
understand
something
new
each
time.
Build
up
your
vocabulary.
A
wide
vocabulary
is
the
key
to
successful
language
learning,
but
don't
try
to
learn
too
much
at
once.
It's
best
to
study
frequently,
for
short
periods
of
time.
Take
at
most
six
or
seven
items
of
vocabulary
and
learn
them.
Put
them
into
sentences
to
fix
them
in
your
mind,
and
then
come
back
to
them
later.
And
above
all,
have
fun!
1．Why
should
one
have
himself
recorded
when
practicing
speaking?
A．To
improve
his
speaking.
B．To
record
his
own
progress.
C．To
encourage
others
to
start.
D．To
compare
himself
with
others.
2．What
does
the
underlined
word“it”in
Paragraph
4
refer
to?
A．Practice
speaking
frequently.
B．Persuade
someone
to
study
with
you.
C．Build
up
your
vocabulary
with
your
friend.
D．Listen
to
some
recorded
material.
3．It
is
implied(暗示)in
the
passage
that
________
is
helpful
when
you
are
learning
English.
A．body
language
B．good
materials
C．excellent
pronunciation
D．a
proper
dictionary
4．According
to
the
passage,
one
should
________
when
he
is
learning
English.
A．always
work
with
other
people
B．be
able
to
guess
everything
new
C．often
review
what
he
has
learnt
D．take
little
notice
of
grammar
B
People
from
Britain
and
Ireland
first
came
to
live
in
Australia
in
1788.
They
brought
different
dialects(方言)of
English
with
them.
These
different
kinds
of
English
began
to
mix
and
change.
The
newcomers
soon
began
to
speak
with
their
own
typical
accent(口音)and
vocabulary.
More
and
more
people
came
to
Australia
during
the
Gold
Rush
in
the
19th
and
20th
centuries.
Some
came
from
Britain
and
Ireland;
others
came
from
non?English
speaking
countries.
Australian
English
continued
to
grow
and
change.
Australian
English
has
also
been
influenced
by
American
English.
During
the
Second
World
War,
there
were
many
American
soldiers
staying
in
Australia.
More
importantly,
American
television
shows
and
music
have
been
popular
in
Australia
since
the
1950s.
Australians
use
many
words
that
other
English
speakers
do
not
use.
The
famous
Australian
greeting,
for
example,
is
G'day！A
native
forest
is
called
the
bush
and
central
Australia
is
called
the
outback.
Many
words
were
brought
to
Australia
from
Britain
and
Ireland.
For
example,
mate
means“friend”，
and
it
is
still
used
in
Britain.
Some
of
these
words
have
changed
in
meaning.
Some
words
have
come
from
Australian
original
languages,
many
of
which
are
names
for
animals,
plants
and
places,
like
dingo
and
kangaroo.
Australian
spelling
comes
from
British
spelling.
In
words
like
organise
and
realise,
?ise
is
the
expected
and
taught
spelling
method.
In
words
like
colour,
favourite,
?our
is
the
normal,
but
nouns
such
as
the
Labor
Party
and
Victor
Harbor
are
spelled
with
?or.
Program,
on
the
other
hand,
is
more
common
than
programme.
There
are
also
differences
in
the
definition(定义)of
words
Australians
use
in
different
parts
of
the
country.
For
example,
football
means“rugby”in
New
South
Wales
and
Queensland,
but“Australian
rules
football”in
everywhere
else
in
Australia.
In
New
South
Wales,
a
swimming
costume
is
called
a
cossie
or
swimmers,
while
in
Queensland
it
is
called
togs
and
bathers
in
Victoria.
5．According
to
the
passage,
which
of
the
following
is
spoken
only
by
Australians?
A．Mate.
B．Outback.
C．Program.
D．Rugby.
6．What
can
we
conclude
from
the
last
paragraph?
A．The
same
word
might
have
different
meanings
in
different
parts
of
Australia.
B．There
are
different
expressions
about
sports
in
Australia.
C．Australian
rules
football
is
the
most
popular
sport
in
Australia.
D．Australians
are
fond
of
sports
and
games.
7．What
might
be
the
best
title
for
the
text?
A．The
History
of
Australia
B．The
Development
of
Australian
English
C．The
Birth
of
Australian
English
D．Different
Kinds
of
English
Across
the
World
Ⅱ.七选五
Today
we
take
a
look
at
the
word
“smart”.
If
someone
says
you
are
smart,
what
do
they
mean？Is
it
a
good
thing
or
something
bad？__1__
This
is
because
the
word
“smart”has
many
meanings.
For
example,
someone
could
say
you
look
smart
or
are
dressed
smartly.
That
means
they
like
your
physical
appearance
or
what
you
are
wearing.
But
if
something
smarts,
it
can
be
unkind
or
hurtful,
either
physically
or
mentally.
If
you
accidentally
trip
over
a
chair
and
fall
down,
you
might
shout，“Ow！That
smarts！”Or
if
a
friend
says
something
that
hurts
your
feelings,
you
can
say
you
are
smarting
from
the
hurtful
comments.
__2__
If
you
are
standing
too
close
to
a
campfire,
you
could
say
your
eyes
are
smarting
from
the
smoke
of
the
fire.
Here
the
word
“smarting”
means
feeling
a
sharp
pain.
__3__
If
someone
is
smart
as
a
whip,
they
are
able
to
think
very
quickly.
__4__
Some
people
are
considered
street?smart.
They
may
not
have
a
strong
education.
But
they
are
good
at
dealing
with
people
and
problems
in
the
real
world.
Other
people
might
be
book?smart.
This
means
they
have
spent
many
years
in
school.
But
they
may
not
be
so
smart
when
dealing
with
people
or
real?world
problems.
And
then
there
is
a
definition
of
smart
that
means
to
talk
or
behave
disrespectfully.
If
you
say
something
disrespectful
to
your
parents,
they
might
say，“Don't
get
smart
with
me！”Here，“smart”means
showing
a
lack
of
respect
by
saying
something
unkind.
This
definition
of
smart
can
also
be
used
as
a
verb.
__5__
A．Do
they
really
mean
you
are
smart?
B．The
answer
is
not
as
easy
as
you
might
think.
C．People
have
different
attitudes
towards
being
smart.
D．In
fact,
maybe
that
person
is
no
longer
your
friend.
E．But
the
most
common
meaning
of“smart”is
to
be
intelligent.
F．However,
different
people
have
different
ways
of
being
smart.
G．If
you
smart
off
to
the
wrong
people,
they
could
hit
you
in
the
face.

Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。作者就如何学好英语从五个方面给出了自己的建议。
1．答案与解析：A 细节理解题。根据文中“Try
recording
yourself
whenever
you
can...
you
will
find
that
each
version
is
better
than
the
last.”可知，说的时候尽量录音，并和专业的版本进行比较，找出不足，进而得到提高。故A项符合题意。
2．答案与解析：B 词义猜测题。由第四段中“If
you
can
persuade
a
friend
or
a
family
member
to
study
with
you...”可知，说服别人和你一起学，这样会让你更有动力坚持。故B项符合题意。
3．答案与解析：A 推理判断题。由文中“Use
facial
expressions,
hand
movements,
anything
to
get
your
meaning
across.”可知，可以使用各种肢体语言来表达自己的意思。故A项符合题意。
4．答案与解析：C 细节理解题。由文中“It's
best
to
study
frequently,
for
short
periods
of
time...and
then
come
back
to
them
later.”可知，要经常复习才能记忆牢固。故C项符合题意。
B
【语篇解读】 本文主要介绍了澳大利亚英语的发展及其特点。
5．答案与解析：B 细节理解题。根据第三段“A
native
forest
is
called
the
bush
and
central
Australia
is
called
the
outback.”可知outback仅有澳大利亚人说。
6．答案与解析：A 推理判断题。根据最后一段“There
are
also
differences
in
the
definition
of
words
Australians
use
in
different
parts
of
the
country.”以及下文所举的例子可知同一个词在澳大利亚的不同地区可能有不同的意思。
7．答案与解析：B 标题归纳题。综合全文内容可知本文主要介绍了澳大利亚英语的发展及其特点。
Ⅱ.七选五
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了smart这个词的几个含义。
1．答案与解析：B 根据上文“If
someone
says
you
are
smart,
what
do
they
mean？Is
it
a
good
thing
or
something
bad？”和设空处后的“This
is
because
the
word
‘smart’
has
many
meanings”可知，设空处应是对问句的回答或是“smart”有多种含义的结果。B项(答案可能并不像你想的那么容易)承上启下，符合语境。故选B项。
2．答案与解析：D 根据上文“Or
if
a
friend
says
something
that
hurts
your
feelings,
you
can
say
you
are
smarting
from
the
hurtful
comments.”可知，设空处应说明被朋友伤害后的结果。D项(事实上，也许那个人不再是你的朋友了)承接上文，符合语境。故选D项。
3．答案与解析：E 根据下文“If
someone
is
smart
as
a
whip,
they
are
able
to
think
very
quickly.”可知此处应该说smart具有“聪明的”含义。E项(但是，“smart”最常见的含义是“聪明的”)符合语境。故选E项。
4．答案与解析：F 根据设空处后的“Some
people
are
considered
street?smart.”以及本段第五句“Other
people
might
be
book?smart.”可知，本段讲了两种聪明：处世聪明和读书聪明。F项(然而，不同的人有不同方式的聪明)引出下文，符合语境。故选F项。
5．答案与解析：G 根据本段第一句和设空处前一句“This
definition
of
smart
can
also
be
used
as
a
verb.”可知空处应表明“smart”的动词用法，G项意为“如果你向错误的人耍小聪明，你可能会挨打”。句中smart为动词，承接上文，符合语境。
Ⅲ.语法填空
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了学习语言要做的四件事情：理解语言、正确地讲语言、阅读和写作，同时建议我们“在应用中学习”。
1．答案与解析：completely 考查副词。设空处在句中作状语，故填副词completely。
2．答案与解析：hesitation 考查词性转换。without是介词，后面要跟名词或动名词。此处指“毫不犹豫地”，故填提示词的名词形式hesitation。
3．答案与解析：in 考查固定搭配。succeed
in意为“在……方面取得成功”，故填介词in。
4．答案与解析：A 考查冠词。句意：一个好的记忆非常有帮助，但是仅仅记住语法书上的规则还不够。此处表示泛指，故填不定冠词A。
5．答案与解析：to
memorize 考查不定式。句中it是形式主语，真正的主语是不定式短语to
memorize
rules
from
a
grammar
book。故填to
memorize。
6．答案与解析：their 考查代词。分析句子可知本空作定语修饰名词meaning，故填形容词性物主代词their。
7．答案与解析：satisfied 考查形容词。句意：如果我们只是满足于我们记住的一些规则，我们不是真正地在学这种语言。be
satisfied
with对……满足。
8．答案与解析：have
memorized 考查动词时态。根据语境可知，此处应该使用现在完成时，故填have
memorized。
9．答案与解析：who 考查定语从句。定语从句的先行词是those，指人，设空处引导定语从句且在定语从句中充当主语。故填who。
10．答案与解析：writing 考查动名词。practise
doing
sth.
表示“练习做某事”，句中动名词speaking和writing构成并列关系，故填writing。
