(必修五·Unit 5)

Ⅰ.单项填空

1.He was so fat that he could only just ________ the door.

A.squeeze into B.squeeze through

C.get into D.enter through

答案与解析:B先分析空格内待填词与the door之间的关系,受汉语“进门”的干扰,往往会误认为用介词into,但into是指进入某空间,不能说into the door。而应说into the room by/through the front door。D项中enter是及物动词,后直接接进入的空间。全句意为“他太胖了,勉强挤过这扇门”。

2.—Why is the librarian looking so hard at me?

—You ________ to read aloud in the reading room.

A.don't suppose B.haven't supposed

C.are not supposed D.were not supposed

答案:C

3.The performance was warmly applauded and cheered ______ by the audience.Which of the following is wrong?

A.over and over B.again and again

C.over and over again D.over again

答案:D

4.It's a good habit to keep everything ________ in your study.

A.in the way B.in place

C.in hand D.in case

答案:B

5.Life is tough.In order to lose their ________,some people drink alcohol.

A.temper B.mood

C.consciousness D.pressure

答案与解析:D句意为:生活很不容易。许多人为了缓解压力而喝酒。lose pressure 意为“缓解压力”。A项,lose one's temper意为“发脾气”;B项,mood“心境,情绪”;C项,consciousness“意识”。

6.—They are having a meeting.

—Maybe they will be through ________.

A.at present B.presently

C.later D.for the present

答案:B

7.Many students use ________ dictionaries to take the place of paper dictionaries for looking up words.

A.are burnt B.are burned

C.are burning D.burn

答案:D

9.As the young generation,we should never forget those who ________ the success of the revolution.

A.bled for B.bled to

C.resulted from D.resulted in

答案:A

10.Has she finished her week's work?________,I'll ask her to see a film tonight.

A.If so B.If not

C.If any D.If anything

答案与解析:A if so相当于if she has finished her week's work,so是代替这一部分。if not是省略用法,相当于if she hasn't...;if any固定用法,“如果有的话”;D不是固定用法。句意为:她完成这周的工作了吗?如果完成了,我想邀她今晚去看电影。故选A项符合语境。

11.The building is severely ________ by the explosion and it will be a long time before it can be repaired.

A.struck B.hit

C.damaged D.destroyed

答案与解析:C由后半句可知所造成的损害还可以进行修复,故用damage。strike和hit侧重指被地震、爆炸等袭击,但不强调被袭击后的结果;destroy一般造成的损坏不能进行修复。

12.Joe was a ________ man who gets rarely angry even when at such irritating situations.

A.respective B.conscious

C.mild D.capable

答案与解析:C mild可用于描述人的脾气性情,意为“温和的;温柔的”,由when 引导的从句可知形容Joe是一个好脾气的人。

13.An earthquake sometimes causes great ________ and many people are homeless.

A.hurt B.injury

C.wound D.damage

答案与解析:D本题中A、B、C三项均表示伤害,而本题中指自然灾害(地震)带来毁坏和损坏,应用damage。

14.Taking this medicine,if________,will of course do good to your health.

A.continued B.to continue

C.continues D.continuing

答案与解析:A if continued为if it is continued的省略,it与动词continue构成逻辑上的动宾关系,需用被动形式。

15.—Have you seen the film The sound of Music?

—Not yet,but I________.

A.expect to B.think to

C.expect so D.expect not

答案与解析:A but表示转折,说明“想看”,expect to是expect to see the film的省略回答。在不定式的省略回答中常省略to后的部分,但不定式符号不能省略。

Ⅱ.完形填空

Tom Lee is determined to help people suffering from multiple sclerosis(MS)(硬化症).Sometimes he __1__ a 300-mile bike ride in two days to prove it.

“It's a very __2__ disease,”Lee,72,said.“I've met a lot of people with MS in the last 19 years.I've been __3__ by their strength of character.They're a very __4__ group of people.”That courage inspired Lee to find his own.__5__ he enjoyed biking as a child __6__ up in Ireland,he didn't start riding long __7__ until he worked for Westinghouse in Minnesota.It was 1991__8__ he did his first 150 miles in two days.He's been __9__ ever since.

18.A.quickly B.carefully

C.hard D.bravely

19.A.fit B.interesting

C.happy D.calm

20.A.powerful B.necessary

C.important D.helpful

答案与解析:

为了硬化症病人,Tom Lee不顾自己72岁的高龄长途骑自行车鼓励他们。

1.B从第三段最后一行“He did the ride for nine years”可得到提示。do a bike ride“骑车旅行”。

2.D根据上下文可知,硬化症是一种非常可怕的疾病。

3.C由该段“That courage inspired Lee to find his own”可推断此处Lee说的是他被他们鼓舞了。与inspire相应的只有encourage最为贴近。

4.B从下一句“那种勇气鼓舞了Lee自己去找寻”推出这群人很勇敢。

5.A根据上下文可知,尽管他小的时候很喜欢骑自行车,但一直到他……。

6.C尽管从小生长在爱尔兰的他喜欢骑车,……。growing up是分词作状语。

7.D long distances“长距离”,直到他在明尼苏达州的Westinghouse工作时,才开始骑长距离的路程。

8.D先行词是时间名词,故用关系副词when引导定语从句。如果1991前有介词in,则选that,本句成强调结构。

9.A全文讲述的都是Lee骑自行车的事,只有A项符合这一事实。

10.B从第三段的描述可知Lee参加的募款活动,是在各地的巡回比赛。tour有“巡回比赛/演出”之意。

11.A本句意为“两天内走完300英里”。cover指“走完(一段路程)”。

12.A raise/collect money“筹钱”。

13.D由第一段知Lee骑自行车是为帮助患硬化症的人,因此这是指把钱募捐给这一组织。go to相当于be contributed to“有助于;捐给”。

14.A push oneself to do sth.“促使某人自己做某事”。

15.C根据题意可知,1992年他下定决心从Boca骑车到Jacksonville,再返回。decide 最能体现他那种坚强的意志。

16.D由前两句“他想收获更多,于是他决定……”可推断,他的这一决定让他募集了比通常情况下要多的多的钱。normally...“正常地,通常地”。

17.B key“要旨;关键”。本句意为“Lee成功骑车旅行的关键在于……”

18.A and连接的并列的四项都是讲骑车时的注意事项,故用carefully修饰ride。

19.A并不是因为Lee一直保持健康(尽管他每周骑车距离平均长达50~60英里)才使他走完全程的,是由于他的耐力。

20.C耐力对长途比赛是非常重要的。necessary“必要的”,helpful“有帮助的”,powerful“强有力的”,均与题意不符。

Ⅲ.阅读理解

A month after Hurricane Katrina,I returned home in New Orleans.There lay my house,reduced to waist-high ruins,smelly and dirty.

Before the trip,I'd had my car fixed.When the office employee of the garage was writing up the bill,she noticed my Louisiana license plate.“You from New Orleans?”she asked.I said I was.“No charge,”she said,and firmly shook her head when I reached for my wallet.The next day I went for a haircut,and the same thing happened.

As my wife was studying in Florida,we decided to move there and tried to find a rental house that we could afford while also paying off a mortgage(抵押贷款)on our ruined house.We looked at many places,but none was satisfactory.We'd begun to accept that we'd have to live in extremely reduced circumstances for a while,when I got a very curious e-mail from a James Kennedy in California.He'd read some pieces I'd written about our sufferings for Slate,the online magazine,and wanted to give us(“no conditions attached”)a new house across the lake from New Orleans.

It sounded too good to be true,but I replied,thanking him for his exceptional generosity,that we had no plans to go back.Then a poet at the University of Florida offered to let his house to me while he went to England on his one-year paid leave.The rent was rather reasonable.I mentioned the poet's offer to James Kennedy,and the next day he sent a check covering our entire rent for eight months.

Throughout this painful experience,the kindness of strangers has done much to bring back my faith in humanity.It's almost worth losing your worldly possessions to be reminded that people are really nice when given half a chance.

1.The garage employee's attitude toward the author was that of ________.

A.unconcern B.sympathy

C.doubt D.tolerance

答案与解析:B推理断判断题。由文章的第二段得知当加油站的工作人员得知我来自新奥尔良时免费服务,可知答案为B。

2. What do we know about James Kennedy?

A.He was a writer of an online magazine.

B.He was a poet at the University of Florida.

C.He offered the author a new house free of charge.

D.He learned about the author's sufferings via e-mails.

答案与解析:C细节理解题。由文章的第三段最后一句得出答案。

3.It can be inferred from the text that ________.

A.the author's family was in financial difficulty

B.rents were comparatively reasonable despite the disaster

C.houses were difficult to find in the hurricane-stricken area

D.the mortgage on the ruined house was paid off by the bank

答案与解析:A推理判断题。文章的开头提到作者家乡遭遇飓风,又讲想要租房子,同时还要支付房屋贷款,可推测出作者一家经济有些困难。

4.The author learned from his experience that ________.

A.worldly possessions can be given up when necessary

B.generosity should be encouraged in some cases

C.people benefit from their sad stories

D.human beings are kind after all

答案与解析:D推理判断题。由文章最后一段可知答案。全文是以作者被人间温情所感动为线索来展开叙述。

北师大版高中英语课文Unit 16 Stories

Unit 16 Stories Warm-up Tapescript 1 It was a dark and foggy night. We drove and drove. At midnight, just as we thought we were lost, we saw a light behind some trees. As we got nearer, we could see a house. It looked abandoned. We knocked on the heavy door. It opened slowly. A tall man dressed entirely in black stood there. ―Good evening,‖ he said in a slow, deep voice. ―I've been expecting you.‖ 2 We were travelling through deep space at the speed of light. Suddenly, the spaceship slowed down and immediately the system came into view – a bright star with twenty or more planets. One of these would be our new home, five light years from our own planet. 3 One of my earliest memories is of my father running along the beach with our dog, Tess. I must have been about three years old. I remember the dog jumping up on me and knocking me over into the water. 4 The man lay on the ground next to a white truck. There was no doubt. He was dead. I quickly looked in the pockets of his jacket – some money, a handkerchief and a theatre ticket with a Chicago phone number

Frederick William Ⅰ,the King of Prussia , could never have imagined that his greatest gift to the Russian people would have such an amazing history . This gift was the Amber Room , which was given this name because several tons of amber were used to make it . The amber which was selected had a beautiful yellow-brown colour like honey . The design of the room was in the fancy style popular in those days . It was also a treasure decorated with gold and jewels , which took the country's best artists about ten years to make . In fact , the room was not made to be a gift . It was designed for the palace of Frederick Ⅰ. However, the next King of Prussia , Frederick William Ⅰ,to whom the amber room belonged, decided not to keep it. In 1716 he gave it to Peter the Great. In return , the Czar sent him a troop of his best soldiers. So the Amber Room because part of the Czar's winter palace in St Petersburg.About four metres long, the room served as a small reception hall for important visitors . Later,Catherine Ⅱhad the Amber Room moved to a palace outside St Petersburg where she spent her summers. She told her artists to add more details to it .In 1770 the room was completed the way she wanted . Almost six hundred candles lit the room ,and its mirrors and pictures shone like gold. Sadly , although the Amber Room was considered one of the wonders of the world , it is now missing . In September 1941, the Nazi army was near St Petersburg . This was a time when the two countries were at war . Before the Nazis could get to the summer palace , the Russians were able to remove some furniture and small art objects from the Amber Room . However , some of the Nazis secretly stole the room itself . In less than two days 100,000 pieces were put inside twenty-seven woooden boxs . There is no doubt that the boxs were then put on a train for Konigsberg, which was at that time a German city on the Baltic Sea . After that, what happened to the Amber Room remains a mystery . Recently , the Russians and Germans have built a new Amber Room at the summer palace . By studying old photos of the former Amber Room , they have made the new one look like the old one .In 2003 it was ready for the people of St Petersburg when they celebrated the 300th birthday of their city . A FACT OR AN OPINION? What is a fact? Is it something that people believe? No. A fact is anything that can be proved. For example, it can be proved that China has more people than any other country in the world. This is a fact. Then what is an opinion? An opinion is what someone believes is true but has not been proved. So an opinion is not good evidence in a trial. For example, it is an opinion if you say “Cats are better pets than dogs”. It may be true, but it is difficult to prove. Some people may not agree with this opinion but they also cannot prove that they are right. In a trial, a judge must decide which eyewit nesses to believe and which not to believe. The judge does not consider what each eyewitness looks like or where that person lives or works. He/she only cares about whether the eyewitness has given true information, which must be facts rather than opinions. This kind of information is called evidence. Unit 2 AN INTERVIEW Pausanias, who was a Greek writer about 2,000 years ago, has come on a magical journey on March 18th 2007 to find out about the present-day Olympic Games. He is now interviewing Li Yan, a volunteer for the 2008 Olympic Games.

必修4 Unit 1 A STUDENT OF AFRICAN WILDLIFE It is 5:45 am and the sun is just rising over Gombe National Park in East Africa. Following Jane's way of studying chimps, our group are all going to visit them in the forest. Jane has studied these families of chimps for many years and helped people understand how much they behave like humans. Watching a family of chimps wake up is our first activity of the day. This means going back to the place where we left the family sleeping in a tree the night before. Everybody sits and waits in the shade of the trees while the family begins to wake up and move off. Then we follow as they wander into the forest. Most of the time, chimps either feed or clean each other as a way of showing love in their family. Jane warns us that our group is going to be very tired and dirty by the afternoon and she is right. However, the evening makes it all worthwhile. We watch the mother chimp and her babies play in the tree. Then we see them go to sleep together in their nest for the night. We realize that the bond between members of a chimp family is as strong as in a human family. Nobody before Jane fully understood chimp behaviour. She spent years observing and recording their daily activities. Since her childhood she had wanted to work with animals in their own environment. However, this was not easy. When she first arrived in Gombe in 1960, it was unusual for a woman to live in the forest. Only after her mother came to help her for the first few months was she allowed to begin her project. Her work changed the way people think about chimps. For example, one important thing she discovered was that chimps hunt and eat meat. Until then everyone had thought chimps ate only fruit and nuts. She actually observed chimps as a group hunting a monkey and then eating it. She also discovered how chimps communicate with each other, and her study of their body language helped her work out their social system. For forty years Jane Goodall has been outspoken about making the rest of the world understand and respect the life of these animals. She has argued that wild animals should be left in the wild and not used for entertainment or advertisements. She has helped to set up special places where they can live safely. She is leading a busy life but she says: "Once I stop, it all comes crowding in and I remember the chimps in laboratories. It's terrible. It affects me when I watch the wild chimps. I say to myself, 'Aren't they lucky?" And then I think about small chimps in cages though they have done nothing wrong. Once you have seen that you can never forget ..." She has achieved everything she wanted to do: working with animals in their own environment, gaining a doctor's degree and showing that women can live in the forest as men can. She inspires those who want to cheer the achievements of women. WHY NOT CARRY ON HER GOOD WORK? I enjoyed English, biology, and chemistry at school, but which one should I choose to study at university? I did not know the answer until one evening when I sat down at the computer to do some research on great women of China. By chance I came across an article about a doctor called Lin Qiaozhi, a specialist in women's diseases. She lived from 1901 to 1983. It seemed that she had been very busy in her chosen career, travelling abroad to study as well as writing books and articles. One of them

In 1983, there were only 200 computers connected to the Internet; now there are around 50 million and this growth is clearly going to continue. 在过去的三十年中,互联网的迅速发展。1983,仅有200 台计算机连接到Internet;现在有左右,这一增长显然是要继续下去。 Some expert are pessimistic about the future.

This means going back to the place where we left the family sleeping in a tree the night before. Everybody sits and waits in the shade of the trees while the family begins to wake up and move off. Then we follow as they wander into the forest. Most of the time, chimps either feed or clean each other as a way of showing love in their family. Jane warns us that our group is going to be very tired and dirty by the afternoon and she is right. However, the evening makes it all worthwhile. We watch the mother chimp and her babies play in the tree. Then we see them go to sleep together in their nest for the night. We realize that the bond between members of a chimp family is as strong as in a human family. Nobody before Jane fully understood chimp behaviour. She spent years observing and recording their daily activities. Since her childhood she had wanted to work with animals in their own environment. However, this was not easy. When she first arrived in Gombe in 1960, it was unusual for a woman to live in the forest. Only after her mother came to help her for the first few months was she allowed to begin her project. Her work changed the way people think about chimps. For example, one important thing she discovered was that chimps hunt and eat meat. Until then everyone had thought chimps ate only fruit and nuts. She actually observed chimps as a group hunting a monkey and then eating it. She also discovered how chimps communicate with each other, and her study of their body language helped her work out their social system. For forty years Jane Goodall has been outspoken about making the rest of the world understand and respect the life of these animals. She has argued that wild animals should be left in the wild and not used for entertainment or advertisements. She has helped to set up special places where they can live safely. She is leading a busy life but she says: "Once I stop, it all comes crowding in and I remember the chimps in laboratories. It's terrible. It affects me when I watch the wild chimps. I say to myself, 'Aren't they lucky?" And then I think about small chimps in cages though they have done nothing wrong. Once you have seen that you can never forget ..." She has achieved everything she wanted to do: working with animals in their own

模块3 U7 L1 1 The Spirit of Explorers Viking Voyages to America The Vikings were the first Europeans to reach America. They achieved this long before Columbus ever set sail. The Vikings were a group of people whose ancestors came from Scandinavia. They controlled the seas and coasts of Northern Europe between the 8th and 10th centuries AD. By around 900 AD, there were many places in Northern Europe where the Vikings chose to live. In 982 AD, when a man called Eric the Red decided to set sail further west, there were as many as 10,000 Vikings living in Iceland. According to the old stories of Iceland and Norway, Eric the Red was forced to leave Iceland because he had committed a murder, for which he got into trouble. Eric reached Greenland and discovered that people could live in the place where he landed. He returned to Iceland and told people there about Greenland. He persuaded some people to go back with him to Greenland. Eric set sail once again, this time with 25 ships, of which only 14 made it to Greenland. Not long after Eric the Red had landed in Greenland, a man called Biarni set sail from Iceland in search of Eric's party. Biarni was hoping to join his father who was with Eric, but he was blown off course and found himself in an unknown land, from where he eventually reached Greenland. In the year 1002, when Eric the Red's son Leif was planning a trip further west, Biarni was the man with whom Leif discussed his plans. Leif followed Biarni's directions and sailed to what is believed to be the coast of present-day Canada. He then sailed further south to an island which is now known as Newfoundland. We know about Eric the Red and Leif's deeds through stories which were written down centuries later in Norway and Iceland. They are the first records we have of Europeans sailing to the Americas.
