课后阅读训练

Ⅰ. 阅读理解

Kids are going all over the world without ever leaving their school.

They are using their computers. A school in California could be the most

wired school in America. They are hooked up to the Internet through their

computers.

Thirty students are able to use the Internet every day. The kids are between the grades of kindergarten and fifth grade. The teacher says that it is hard to get them away from the computers. They do not even want to go to recess(暂停).

Internet has opened the world to many people. Now students can go to any library on earth. They can get information. They can visit a child in another country.

Laura Bacon likes to visit other students. She’s going to Peggy’s page. Peggy is a school student in London, England. She puts her own home page on the Internet. It includes pictures of Peggy, her school, her mom, dad and friends. You can send her mails, too.

A scientist helped to wire the school. He says, “There is a plan to connect 12 t housand California schools to the Internet. ”

Wiring schools in California can cost a lot of money. It needs to be done on volunteer effort or schools will not be able to afford it. They think that it will cost as much as fifty billion dollars.

Some people say that the money should be spent on teachers instead of computers. Some people say that it would be worth it to wire all of the classrooms.

Who really knows how old saying got started?As I was researching my latest

book set in the 1500s in Scotland. I found some interesting information.

In the 1500s most people in Scotland got married in June because they took

their yearly bath in May and still smelled clean for a month. However, in case

the“freshness” had disappeared brides(新娘)would carry bouquets of flowers to

hide their body odour(体臭).

The yearly bath was taken in a big tub filled with hot water and the first bath was taken by the man of the house. Other men in the house then took their baths in the same water, followed by the women. Babies were the last to be washed and then the water was so dirty that you couldn ’t see the bottom of the tub, hence the saying“don’t throw the baby out with the bath water”. Wouldn ’t it have made more sense to wash babies first, followed by women and then men who were

dirty after working in the fields?

Most people lived in a little cottage with a dirt floor while more wealthy people had slate(石板)floors, hence the saying“dirt poor”. The slate floors would get slippery in the winter or wet so they were spread with thresh(麦秆). When the door was opened the thresh would start slipping outside. So a piece of wood was placed in the entrance way and that is why we call the step into a house the threshold.

In the 1500s in Scotland poor people lived on vegetables. Pork was hard to get, so if guests arrived and saw a slice of bacon(腊肉)hanging up, they wou ld think the host could“bring home the bacon”. The host would cut off some to share with guests and all sat around“chewing the fat”.

【语篇概述】在英语的学习中, 谚语是我们经常遇到的, 本文就介绍了一些谚语的由来, 阅读本文了解一下吧。

5. Why did most people get married in June in the 1500s in Scotland?

A. Because they still smelled clean by then.

B. Because June was the best time of the year.

C. Because brides could get fresh flowers in June.

D. Because they had to take a bath before marriage.

【解析】选A。细节理解题。根据文章第二段的内容可知, 在16世纪, 苏格兰人一般在五月份洗澡, 在之后的一个月内仍能保持清新的体香, 所以人们大都选择在六月份结婚。

6. Which of the following was a sign of wealth in the 1500s in Scotland?

A. Slates.

B. Thresh.

C. Vegetables.

D. Bacon.

【解析】选D。细节理解题。根据文章最后一段的内容可知, 在16世纪的苏格兰, 普通人吃不起肉, 而有一片腊肉就是财富的象征了。

7. What can be used to describe a man who can support his family?

A. He is dirt poor.

B. He is chewing the fat.

C. He could bring home the bacon.

D. He throws the baby out with the bath water.

【解析】选C。推理判断题。根据文章最后一段的内容可以推测出bring home the bacon可用来形容一个

- 3 -

A. tell some interesting stories

B. introduce some old traditions

C. give the meanings of some old sayings

1. 【解析】第一句中a→an。考查冠词。editor 以元音音素开头, 故不定冠词用an 。

2. 【解析】第二句中main→mainly。考查副词。修饰谓语动词consist of 用副词形式mainly 。

3. 【解析】第二句中we→us。考查代词。介词for 后用人称代词宾格, students 充当该代词的同位语, 故填us 。

4. 【解析】第三句中is 之后加to 。考查非谓语动词。用不定式充当表语, 不定式符号to 不能省略, 且由前一句中的One is to choose. . . 可知。

5. 【解析】第四句中what→that。考查宾语从句引导词。该宾语从句结构完整, 不缺少成分, 故用that 引导。

10. 【解析】第七句中把this week前面的in去掉。考查介词。名词前若有this, that, last等副词时, 其前不用介词。

However, he can play very difficult musical pieces by musicians such as Chopin and Beethoven just a few minutes after he hears them. He learns a piece of music by listening to it in parts. Then he thinks about the notes in his head. Two years ago, he played his first piece Moonlight Sonata(奏鸣曲)by Beethoven. He surprised everyone around him. Amazed that he remembered this long and difficult piece of music and played it perfectly, his teachers say Samuel is unbelievable. They say his ability is very rare, but Samuel doesn't even realize that what he can do is special. Samuel wanted to become a lawyer as it was the wish of his parents, but music teachers told him he should study music instead. Now, he studies law and music. Samuel can't understand why everyone is so surprised. “I grew up with music. My mother played the piano and my father played the guitar. About two years ago, I suddenly decided to start playing the piano, without being able to read music and without having any lessons. It comes easily to me—I hear the notes and can bear them in mind—each and every note，” says Samuel. Recently, Samuel performed a piece during a special event at his college. The piece had more than a thousand notes. The audience was impressed by his amazing performance. He is now learning a piece that is so difficult that many professional pianists can't play it. Samuel says confidently，“It's all about super memory—I guess I have that gift.” However, Samuel's ability to remember things doesn't stop with music. His family says that even when he was a young boy, Samuel heard someone read a story, and then he could retell the story word for word. Samuel is still only a teenager. He doesn't know what he wants to do in the future. For now, he is just happy to play beautiful music and continue his studies. 6. What is special about Samuel Osmond A. He has a gift for writing music. B. He can write down the note he hears. C. He is a top student at the law school. D. He can play the musical piece he hears. 7. What can we learn from Paragraph 2 A. Samuel chose law against the wish of his parents. B. Samuel planned to be a lawyer rather than a musician. C. Samuel thinks of himself as a man of great musical ability. D. Samuel studies law and music on the advice of his teachers. 8. Everyone around Samuel was surprised because he ________． A. received a good early education in music

He wanted his sons to learn how to judge things,so he let them go and look at a pear tree that was far away. The first son went in winter, the second in the spring, the third in the summer , the youngest son in the fall.When they had all gone and come back, he called them together to describe what they had seen. The first son said the tree was ugly,bent and weak. The second son said no--it was covered smelt so sweet and looked so beautiful. The last son disagreed with all of them, he said it was ripe and full of fruit, life and fulfillment(成就). The man then said to his sons that they were all right, because they each had seen but only one season in the tree’s life. He told them that you cannot judge a tree or a person by only one season, and that essence of who they are — the pleasure,the joy and love from that — can only be measured at the end, when all the seasons are up. If you give up when it’s winter, you’ll miss the hope of your spring, the beauty of your summer, the fulfillment of your fall. Don’t let the pain of one season destro y the joy of all the rest.
