必修三 Unit3 The Million Pound Note （B）
一、阅读理解
A
Hobbs was an orphan. He worked in a factory and every day he got a little money. Hard work made him thin and weak. He wanted to borrow a lot of money to learn to paint pictures, but he did not think he could pay off the debts.
One day a lawyer said to him, “One thousand dollars, and here is the money.” As Hobbs took the package of notes, he was very dumbfounded. He didn’t know where the money came from and how to spend it. He said to himself, “I could go to find a hotel and live like a rich man for a few days, or I give up my work in the factory and do what I’d like to do: painting pictures. I could do that for a few weeks, but what would I do after that? I should have lost my place in the factory and have no money to live on. If it were a little less money, I would buy a new coat, or a radio, or give a dinner to my friends. If it were more, I could give up the work and pay for painting pictures. But it’s too much for one and too little for the other.”
“Here is the reading of your uncle’s will,” said the lawyer, “telling what is to be done with this money after his death. I must ask you to remember one point. Your uncle has said you must bring me a paper showing exactly what you did with his money, as soon as you have spent it.”
“Yes I see. I’ll do that,” said the young man.

Arthur Miller(1915-2005) is universally recognized as one of the greatest dramatists of the 20th century. Miller’s father had moved to the USA from Austria-Hungary, drawn like so many others by the “Great American Dream”. However, he experienced severe financial hardship when his family business was ruined in the Great Depression of the early 1930s.
Miller’s most famous play, Death of a Salesman, is a powerful attack on the American system, with its aggressive way of doing business and its insistence on money and social status as indicators of worth. In Willy Loman, the hero of the play, we see a man who has got into trouble with this system. Willy is “burnt-out” and in the cruel world of business there is no room for sentiment: if he can’t do the work, then he is no good to his employer, the Wagner Company, and he must go.Willy is painfully aware of this，and at a loss as to what to do with his lack of success. He refuses to face the fact that he has failed and kills himself in the end.
When it was first staged in 1949, the play was greeted with enthusiastic reviews, and it won the Tony Award for Best Play, the New York Drama Critics’ Circle Award, and the Pulitzer Prize for Drama. It was the first play to win all three of these major awards.
Miller died of heart failure at his home in Roxbury, Connecticut, on the evening of February 10, 2005, the 56th anniversary of the first performance of Death of a Salesman on Broadway.
Why did Arthur Miller’s father move to the USA?
A. He suffered from severe hunger in his home country.
B. He was attracted by the “Great American Dream”.
C. He hoped to make his son a dramatist.
D. His family business failed.
6. The play Death of a Salesman .

C. talks about the business career of Arthur Miller
D. focuses on the skills in doing business
7. After it was first staged, Death of a Salesman .
A. achieved huge success
B. won the first Tony Award
C. was warmly welcomed by salesmen
D. was severely attacked by dramatists
8. What is the text mainly about?

The “Short Story Dispenser” first debuted(亮相) at Paris’ bustling Charles de Gaulle Airport last year. 11 If you’d like to learn more about the locations of these lovely literary oases, check out the Short ?dition website. 12

Asad was a 1-year-old boy who was very honest and hardworking. Recently he had entered a new school, so he had no friends yet. On Monday morning, he was nearly late for school. The night before, his family attended his cousin’s wedding and reached home late, which was why he couldn’t get up on time as usual.
At school, Asad could not pay attention to anything and wanted the bell to ring so that he could buy something to eat. After a few hours, when the bell rang, Asad quickly opened his schoolbag to find his money, but just then he remembered that he had left for school in a hurry in the morning and forgotten to take money. He looked under his books, hoping to find some money but there was nothing.
Not knowing what to do, he walked out of the classroom and sat on a bench in front of the canteen. He saw a few of his classmates there. Among them was Fahad. He was one of the riches kids in his class, but he was a very arrogant boy who thought everyone else was a loser. But as Asad was new, he didn’t know much about Fahad.
When he went towards Fahad and asked if he could borrow some money for his lunch. Fahad laughed a lot and said, “I knew you were a loser, maybe a beggar?” Fahad laughed out so loud that other kids also heard and made fun of the situation. He didn’t answer Fahad, and slowly walked back towards an empty bench.
When he reached the bench, he noticed something lying near it. It was a wallet. He picked it up and recognized it as Fahad’s, as he remembered Fahad showing it to his friends and telling that his uncle bought it for him from the UK. There was quite a lot of money inside for a kid.
Paragraph. 1:
At first, Asad wanted to keep it a secret and punished Fahad.





Paragraph.2:
Then Fahad said, “Why are you giving back?”

四、语法填空
【答案】
neighbor’s/neighboring 30. Since 31. calling 32. fled 33. that
whose 35. have realized 36. warmth 37. but 38. strangers
【解析】这是一篇新闻报道。文章讲述了大约一年前，一名武汉市民发布的窗帘视频引起了人们的关注，房主在社交网络看到他家的窗帘后才想起忘记关闭窗户了，这才返回家中。疫情期间，人们都在为彼此祈祷和默默祝愿着，体现了中国社会人与人之间的关爱。
29.考查形容词和名词所有格。句意：两个月前，一名武汉居民注意到邻居的窗户开着，窗帘飘出了窗外。空格处需要形容词或者名词所有格作定语修饰window，neighbor的名词所有格是neighbor’s，形容词是neighboring。故填neighbor’s/neighboring。
30.考查介词。句意：自2月15日以来，她一直在新浪微博上发布窗帘飘出的视频以及每日天气和城市的其他最新动态。根据句意可知，她发布视频及信息的事情已经持续了一段时间，因此使用since+时间点（Feb15），表示自从2月15日以来，符合语境和语意的需要。置于句首首字母大写。故填Since。
31.考查非谓语动词。句意：她的帖子很快就广为流传，一些微博用户开玩笑称其为“幕剧”。此处为with的复合结构：with+名词/代词+现在分词，其中micro-bloggers与call是主动关系，因此使用call的现在分词作宾语补足语。故填calling。
32.考查时态。as引导时间状语从句，主句使用了过去完成时，即表示主句的动作had opened发生在“过去的过去”，因此从句的动词flee应该使用一般过去时，flee的过去式是fled。故填fled。
33.考查强调句。句意：在社交网络看到他家的窗帘后，他才返回家中。分析句子结构可知，该句子使用的是强调句型：It is/was...that/who...，其中被强调部分是after引导的时间状语（after reading about his curtain on social network），由于被强调部分指的不是人，因此强调句中使用that不使用who。故填that。
34.考查定语从句的关系代词。分析句子结构可知，此处需要填入定语从句的关系代词，woman和videos具有所属关系，即这位女士发布的视频，因此使用关系代词whose在定语从句中用作定语，修饰其后的名词videos。故填whose。
35.考查“情态动词+have done”结构。may/might have done表示对过去的事情的推测，意思可能已经……，此处用于否定句中，则意为可能没有做过某事。故填have realized。
36.考查名词。句意：“幕剧”的背后体现的是中国社会的温暖和人与人之间的关爱。空格前面有定冠词the，后面需要填入名词和love并列，warm的名词是warmth。故填warmth。
37.考查并列连词。空格前后的两句话是转折关系，空格前后均无逗号，因此不使用however。故填but。
38.考查名词的数。句意：中国社会就是这样：人们从不冷漠地对待陌生人，而是永远慷慨大方地献出爱心。to是介词，其后使用名词作宾语，结合语意的需要，应填入stranger（陌生人），它是可数名词，要使用复数形式表示泛指，故填strangers。

【范文】
Paragraph. 1:
At first, Asad wanted to keep it a secret and punished Fahad. But it was not easy. He felt the heat in his body rising, and his cheeks blushing. Throwing a glance at Fahad, who was chatting happily, cocking his head high, Asad suddenly felt a bit sorry for the embarrassment he was going to face. Just at the moment Fahad gasped and cried out in alarm, “Oh hell, where is my wallet?” Some gossips began. Asad heard words of gloat. Overwhelmed by guilt, Asad quickly picked up the wallet and strode to Fahad, “I found it over there, and I think it is yours.” Seeing the dumb founded face of Fahad, he added, “I thought of sneaking it, of course.” Recalling what he had done to Asad, Fahad suddenly hesitated to take the wallet.
Paragraph. 2:
Then Fahad said, ‘Why are you giving back?” Murmuring in a low voice, he dodged Asad’s shining eyes, somehow even not daring to look into them. What replied him was a sigh, “Because it belongs to you.” After confession, the air seemed still and it became weird that no one uttered a single word. Just at this moment, Asad’s stomach seemed to be the first to break the awkwardness by growling loud. To his astonishment, the arrogant boy, Fahad, reached out his hand, stammering, “W...What about having lunch together?” Before Asad could say anything, Fahad quickly added, “Of course, my treat.” It was on that very day that Asad made his first friend in the new school, and he truly reckoned the value of sincerity and honesty in a relationship.
【解析】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了男孩Asad非常诚实和勤奋，他最近进入了一所新学校，没有朋友。一天他找班上最富有但却傲慢的同学Fahad借钱想买早餐，Fahad却嘲笑他。结果Asad在长凳上捡到了Fahad的钱包，还主动还给了Fahad，Fahad也被他所打动，请他吃午餐，就这样Asad在新学校交到了第一个朋友。
1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容可知，第一段可描写Asad想要藏起钱包的内心活动，以及Fahad发现钱包不见后的反应。
②由第二段首句内容可知，第二段可描写Fahad得知Asad归还钱包的原因后被打动并为自己嘲笑Asad感到愧疚，最终决定请Asad吃饭，二人成为朋友。
2.续写线索：Asad想要藏起钱包——Fahad发现钱包不见——Asad归还钱包并解释原因——Fahad愧疚——Fahad提出请Asad吃午饭——二人成为朋友
