In
an
online
class，developing
healthy
patterns
of
communication
with
professors
is
very
important.

While
I
have
only
listed
two
of
each，there
are
obviously
many
other
situations
that
can
arise.Students
should
be
able
to
extend
the
logic
(逻辑)
of
each
to
their
particular
circumstance.

Questions
about
subject
content
are
generally
welcomed.Before
asking
questions
about
the
course
design，read
the
syllabus
(教学大纲)
and
learning
management
system
information
to
be
sure
the
answer
isn't
hiding
in
plain
sight.
?Participate
in
discussion
forums
(论坛)，blogs
and
other
open?ended
forums
for
dialogue.

a
point，and
make
it
safe
for
others
to
do
the
same.
Don'ts
?Don't
share
personal
information
or
stories.Professors
are
not

of
a
deadline
extension，simply
explain
the
situation
to
the
professor.

openly
express
annoyance
at
a
professor
or
class.

When
a
student
attacks
a
professor
on
the
social
media，the
language
used
actually
says
more
about
the
student.If
there
is
truly
a
concern
about
a
professor's
professionalism
or
ability，be
sure
to
use
online
course

what
they
are
for.

to
an
online
instructor
for

ask.

of
emails.

some
common
do's
and
don'ts
for
online
learners.
F．Everyone
has
taken
a
not?so?great
class
at

time
or
another.
G．Ask
questions，but
make
sure
they
are
good，thoughtful
questions.
本文是一篇说明文。介绍了在选修网络课程时如何与授课老师建立健康有益的互动交流。这篇文章视角独特，倡导积极和谐的人际关系和人文情怀。
1．E 解析：空格前说，在网络课堂上，与授课老师建立健康的沟通模式是非常重要的，空格后说，虽然“我”每个只列出了两条，但显然还有许多其他情况可能发生。下面的段落紧接着介绍了沟通的注意事项——两“做”和两“不做”，因此E项“下面是在线学习者应该做和不应该做的一些常见事情”符合语境。
2．G 解析：空格后说，与主题内容相关的问题通常会受欢迎。在询问有关课程设计的问题之前，阅读教学大纲和学习管理系统信息，以确保答案不会隐藏在眼皮底下。由此可推知，此段表达要提出好的有水平的问题，故选G项“问问题，但要确保这些问题是好的、深思熟虑过的问题”。
3．A 解析：空格前说，参加论坛、博客和其他开放式论坛来进行对话，空格后为参加论坛等的一些注意事项，A项“那就是它们的作用”符合语境。
4．C 解析：空格前交代，如果你需要延长最后期限，只需向授课老师解释一下情况，故选C项“如果需要更多的信息，他们会询问”。
5．F 解析：空格前说，不要公开表达对授课老师或课程的不满，空格后提及，如果授课老师的专业水平或能力确实令人担忧，一定要使用在线课程评价来冷静地发表你的意见，因此F项“每个人都曾经有过不太好的上课经历”符合语境。
Ⅱ.翻译下列句子，注意黑体部分要用到本单元的单词、短语或句型，然后将其合并成一篇短文
1．我是在街上结识他的。
I_made_his_acquaintance_in_the_street.
2．他说他需要用钱，想向我借2
000元钱。
He
said
he
was
in
need
of
money
and
wanted
to
borrow
2,000
yuan
from
me.
3．一般来说，刚刚认识就向对方借钱是不礼貌的。
Generally_speaking，it_is_impolite_to_ask_for_money_on_first_acquaintance.
4．在钱的方面，我一点儿也不富裕。
I'm_not_rich_at_all_in_terms_of_money.
5．因此，我犹豫了，心想如果他是个骗子，那该怎么办呢。
So_I_hesitated，wondering_what_if_he_was_a_liar.
6．他接着说有个人冒充他妻子的一个朋友骗了他所有的钱。
He_added_that_one_person_passed_off_as_one_of_his_wife's_friends_cheated_him_into_giving_her_all_his_money.
7．这才使他沦落到这个地步。
It_condemned_him_to_this_point.
8．听到这儿，我觉得误解他了。
Hearing_this，I_felt_I_was_mistaken_about_him.
9．但对于他要的钱数我采取了折中的办法，给了他1
000元。
But_I_made_a_compromise_on_the_amount_of_money_he_asked_and_gave_him_1,000_yuan.
10．回到家，妻子对我今天所做的事未做评论。
My_wife_made_no_remark_on_what_I_did_today_when_I_got_home.
请将以上句子连成一篇语言流畅、逻辑严密的短文。
I_made_his_acquaintance_in_the_street_and_he_said_he_was_in_need_of_money_and_wanted_to_borrow_2,000_yuan_from_me.Generally_speaking，it_is_impolite_to_ask_for_money_on_first_acquaintance.Besides，I'm_not_rich_at_all_in_terms_of_money.I_hesitated，wondering_what_if_he_was_a_liar.He_added_that_one_person_passed_off_as_one_of_his_wife's_friends_cheated_him_into_giving_her_all_his_money，which_condemned_him_to_this_point.Hearing_this，I_felt_I_was_mistaken_about_him.But_I_made_a_compromise_on_the_amount_of_money_he_asked_and_gave_him_1,000_yuan.My_wife_made_no_remark_on_what_I_did_today_when_I_got_home.Unit

Ⅰ.阅读理解
I
must
have
always
known
reading
was
very
important
because
the
first
memories
I
have
as
a
child
deal
with
books.There
was
not
one
night
that
I
don't
remember
Mom
reading
me
a
storybook
by
my
bedside.I
was
extremely
inspired
by
the
elegant
way
the
words
sounded.
I
always
wanted
to
know
what
my
mom
was
reading.Hearing
Mom
say，“I
can't
believe
what's
printed
in
the
newspaper
this
morning，”
made
me
want
to
grab
it
out
of
her
hands
and
read
it
myself.I
wanted
to
be
like
my
mom
and
know
all
of
the
things
she
knew.So
I
carried
around
a
book，and
each
night，just
to
be
like
her，I
would
pretend
to
be
reading.
This
is
how
everyone
learned
to
read.We
would
start
off
with
sentences，then
paragraphs，and
then
stories.It
seemed
an
unending
journey，but
even
as
a
six?year?old
girl
I
realized
that
knowing
how
to
read
could
open
many
doors.When
Mom
said,
“The
C?A?N?D?Y
is
hidden
on
the
top
shelf，”
I
knew
where
the
candy
was.My
progress
in
reading
raised
my
curiosity，and
I
wanted
to
know
everything.I
often
found
myself
telling
my
mom
to
drive
more
slowly，so
that
I
could
read
all
of
the
road
signs
we
passed.
Most
of
my
reading
through
primary，middle
and
high
school
was
factual
reading.I
read
for
knowledge，and
to
make
As
on
my
tests.Occasionally,
I
would
read
a
novel
that
was
assigned，but
I
didn't
enjoy
this
type
of
reading.I
liked
facts，things
that
are
concrete.I
thought
anything
abstract
left
too
much
room
for
argument.
Yet，now
that
I'm
growing
and
the
world
I
once
knew
as
being
so
simple
is
becoming
more
complex，I
find
myself
needing
a
way
to
escape.By
opening
a
novel，I
can
leave
behind
my
burdens
and
enter
into
a
wonderful
and
mysterious
world
where
I
am
now
a
new
character.In
these
worlds
I
can
become
anyone.I
don't
have
to
write
down
what
happened
or
what
technique
the
author
was
using
when
he
or
she
wrote
this.I
just
read
to
relax.
We're
taught
to
read
because
it's
necessary
for
much
of
human
understanding.Reading
is
a
vital
part
of
my
life.Reading
satisfies
my
desire
to
keep
learning.And
I've
found
that
the
possibilities
that
lie
within
books
are
limitless.
本文是一篇记叙文。作者讲述自己对阅读的喜爱：从小听妈妈读睡前故事，开始识字之后就认读路边的路标，后来阅读习惯也发生了变化。
1．Why
did
the
author
want
to
grab
the
newspaper
out
of
her
mom's
hands?
A．She
wanted
Mom
to
read
the
news
to
her.
B．She
was
anxious
to
know
what
had
happened.
C．She
couldn't
wait
to
tear
the
newspaper
apart.
D．She
couldn't
help
but
stop
Mom
from
reading.
答案：B
解析：细节理解题。根据题干中的want
to
grab
the
newspaper
out
of
her
mom's
hands可把答案定位在第二段。该段说，作者想知道妈妈读的是什么，由原文中的
“...made
me
want
to
grab
it
out
of
her
hands
and
read
it
myself.”可知，作者急切地想知道报纸上的内容，因此选B。
2．According
to
Paragraph
3，the
author's
reading
of
road
signs
indicates
________.
A．her
unique
way
to
locate
herself
B．her
eagerness
to
develop
her
reading
ability
C．her
effort
to
remind
Mom
to
obey
traffic
rules
D．her
growing
desire
to
know
the
world
around
her
答案：D
解析：推理判断题。第三段中提到“My
progress
in
reading
raised
my
curiosity，and
I
wanted
to
know
everything.(我在阅读方面的进步增加了我的好奇心，我想了解一切)”，于是“我”就会让妈妈把车开得慢一点儿，以便能看到所有的路标。从这些信息判断，作者这样做是因为想要了解周围的世界，因此选D。
3．What
was
the
author's
view
on
factual
reading?
A．It
would
help
her
update
test?taking
skills.
B．It
would
allow
much
room
for
free
thinking.
C．It
would
provide
true
and
objective
information.
D．It
would
help
shape
a
realistic
and
serious
attitude
to
life.
答案：C
解析：推理判断题。根据题干中的factual
reading可把答案定位在第四段。该段说，作者在小学、初中和高中的阅读都是“事实性的阅读”，这种阅读是为了获取知识，考试得A，当时的作者喜欢具体的事实(facts，things
that
are
concrete)，同时她觉得抽象的东西引起争论的可能性太大(anything
abstract
left
too
much
room
for
argument)，从这些信息推断应选C，作者觉得事实性的读物能给人提供真实、客观的信息。
4．The
author
takes
novel
reading
as
a
way
to
________.
A．explore
a
fantasy
land
B．develop
a
passion
for
learning
C．learn
about
the
adult
community
D．get
away
from
a
confusing
world
答案：D
解析：细节理解题。根据题干中的takes
novel
reading可将答案定位在第五段。第五段中说作者觉得曾经简单的世界正变得更复杂(the
world...is
becoming
more
complex)，自己想逃避(needing
a
way
to
escape)，打开一本小说就能把自己的负担甩到脑后，进入一个美妙而神秘的世界。D项中的get
away
from表示“逃避”，a
confusing
world表示“令人困惑的世界”，这些信息都与该段叙述相吻合，因此选D。

1．were_spent
解析：考查动词的时态和语态。此处陈述的是过去的一般事实，且主语“Some
of
my
most
precious
memories”与动词spend之间为动宾关系，故应用一般过去时的被动语态，所以填were
spent。
2．because/as/for
解析：考查连词。空后的“she
was
French
from
Canada”是“We
had
a
language
barrier”的原因，故可填because/as/for。
3．But
解析：考查连词。所填词表示转折关系，位于句首，且空后无逗号，故用表示转折意义的并列连词But。
4．sitting
解析：考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知，主语I与sit之间为逻辑上的主谓关系，故用现在分词sitting在句中作状语表示主动关系和动作同时发生。
5．when
解析：考查定语从句。空处所填词引导定语从句，且在从句中作时间状语，先行词是the
time，故用when。
6．lower
解析：考查词性转换。她让我拉绳子，把通向她的阁楼的梯子“放下来”。lower意为“把……放低；放下”。
7．boxes
解析：考查名词的数。some后接可数名词的复数，故填boxes。
8．the
解析：考查冠词。此处特指上文提到的“her
attic(阁楼)”，应填定冠词the。
9．She
解析：考查代词。所填词指代“My
grandmother”，且在句中作主语，故用She。
10．without
解析：考查介词。从第一段中的“a
languagebarrier”“a
hearing
barrier”可知，此处表示“几乎没有说一个字”，故应填without。Unit

one

always
__1__
in

over

that
part

is
because

that
I
asked
of
my

our

my

and
asked，“
Mom,
where
are
yours
and
Dad's

She
looked
at

then
simply
said，“

my

A

(系列)

Matilda
Roald
Dahl
I
once
wrote
a
paper
on
the
influence
of
fairy
tales
on
Roald
Dahl's
writing
and
it
gave
me
a
new
appreciation
for
his
strange
and
delightful
words.Matilda's
battles
with
her
cruel
parents
and
the
bossy
headmistress，Miss
Trunchbull，are
equally
funny
and
frightening，but
they're
also
aspirational.
After
Dark
Haruki
Murakami
It's
about
two
sisters—Eri，a
model
who
either
won't
or
can't
stop
sleeping，and
Mari，a
young
student.In
trying
to
connect
to
her
sister，Mari
starts
changing
her
life
and
discovers
a
world
of
diverse
“night
people”
who
are
hidingsecrets.
Gone
Girl
Gillian
Flynn
There
was
a
bit
of
me
that
didn't
want
to
love
this
when
everyone
else
on
the
planet
did，but
the
horror
story
is
brilliant.There's
tension
and
anxiety
from
the
beginning
as
Nick
and
Amy
battle
for
your
trust.It's
a
real
whodunit
and
the
frustration
when
you
realise
what's
going
on
is
horribly
enjoyable.
The
Stand
Stephen
King
This
is
an
excellent
fantasy
novel

one
of
the
best
storytellers
around.After
a
serious
flu
outbreak
wipes
out
99.4%
of
the
world's
population，a
battle
unfolds
between
good
and
evil
among
those
left.Randall
Flagg
is
one
of
the
scariest
characters
ever.

B
Money_with_no_strings_attached.It's
not
something
you
see
every
day.But
at
Union
Station
in
Los
Angeles
last
month，a
board
went
up
with
dollar
bills
attached
to
it
with
pins
and
a
sign
that
read，“Give
What
You
Can，Take
What
You
Need.”
People
quickly
caught
on.And
while
many
took
dollars，many
others
pinned
their
own
cash
to
the
board.“People
of
all
ages，races，and
socio?economic
(社会经济的)
backgrounds
gave
and
took，”
said
Tyler
Bridges
of
The
Toolbox，which
created
the
project.
“We
even
had
a
bride
in
her
wedding
dress
come
up
to
the
board
and
take
a
few
dollars.”
Most
of
the
bills
on
the
board
were
singles，but
a
few
people
left
fives，tens
and
even
twenties.The
video
clip
(片段)
shows
one
man
who
had
found
a
$20
bill
pinning
it
to
the
board.
“What
I
can
say
for
the
folks
that
gave
the
most，is
that
they
were
full
of
smiles，”
Bridges
said.“There's
a
certain
feeling
that
giving
can
do
for
you
and
that
was
apparent
in
those
that
gave
the
most.”
Most
people
who
took
dollars
took
only
a
few，but
Bridges
said
a
very
small
number
took
as
much
as
they
could.
While
the
clip
might
look
like
part
of
a
new
ad
campaign，Bridges
said
the
only
goal
was
to
show
generosity
and
sympathy.He
added
that
he
hopes
people
in
other
cities
might
try
similar
projects
and
post
their
own
videos
on
the
Internet.
“After
all，everyone
has
bad
days
and
good
days，”
he
said.
“Some
days
you
need
a
helping
hand
and
some
days
you
can
be
the
one
giving
the
helping
hand.”
本文是一篇记叙文。主要向读者介绍了Tyler
Bridges创办的一项“尽你所能，取你所需”的活动。这一活动吸引了许多不同的人，其唯一目的就是展现人们的慷慨和同情心。结果显示，人们付出的多，获取的少，达到了预期效果。
4．What
does
the
expression
“Money
with
no
strings
attached”
in
Paragraph
1
mean?
A．Money
spent
without
hesitation.
B．Money
not
legally
made.
C．Money
offered
without
conditions.
D．Money
not
tied
together.
答案：C
解析：句意猜测题。根据第一段中的“Give
What
You
Can，Take
What
You
Need.(尽你所能，取你所需)”可知，此处Money
with
no
strings
attached的意思应该是“无条件提供钱”，故C项正确。
5．What
did
Bridges
want
to
show
by
mentioning
the
bride?
A．Women
tended
to
be
more
sociable.
B．The
activity
attracted
various
people.
C．Economic
problems
were
getting
worse.
D．Young
couples
needed
financial
assistance.
答案：B
解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的“‘People
of
all
ages，races，and
socio?economic(社会经济的)
backgrounds
gave
and
took，’．..”
可知，这项活动吸引了不同年龄、不同种族、不同社会经济背景的人们，甚至有一位穿礼服的新娘都来拿了几美元。提到这位新娘的目的，显然是告诉我们：这项活动吸引了许多不同的人。故B项正确。
6．Why
did
Bridges
carry
out
the
project?
A．To
do
a
test
on
people's
morals.
B．To
raise
money
for
his
company.
C．To
earn
himself
a
good
reputation.
D．To
promote
kindness
and
sympathy.
答案：D
解析：细节理解题。根据第四段中的“...Bridges
said
the
only
goal
was
to
show
generosity
and
sympathy.”可知，Bridges开展该项活动的目的是展现人们的慷慨和同情心，故选D项。
