Module 1 Europe

Ⅰ.语法填空

Zhuhai,1. (locate)in the Pearl River Delta, is a city and Special Economic Zone, in Guangdong Province, China.The name means Pearl Sea.Zhuhai is 2. the Pearl River flows into the South Sea.

Zhuhai is one of China’s cleanest and9. (pretty)cities, and has received numerous praises for its 10. (excellence)ecological development efforts. 答案及剖析:

1.located 考查非谓语动词。句子主语Zhuhai后跟的是其定语,用过去分词located表示“坐落于”。

2.where 考查连接副词。此处where引导表语从句,相当于the place where。

3.its 考查代词。表示“它的”,用形容词性物主代词作定语。

4.a 考查冠词。表示“一个旅游目的地”,故用不定冠词a。

5.visitors 考查名词。根据句意可知,此处表示“游客”,故用visitors。

6.has expanded 考查动词时态。根据句子的时间状语Since 1980可知,谓语动词使用现在完成时态。

7.However 考查副词。此处表示转折之意。

8.that/which 考查关系代词。less developed factory-driven areas后跟定语从句,从句中缺少主语,故用关系代词which或that。

10.excellent 考查形容词。此处用形容词作定语。

Ⅱ.阅读理解

(2017山东潍坊高三联考) The Swedish Academy’s mid-October announcement regarding literature seldom fails to cause second-guessing.

Bob Dylan was awarded the big prize this morning, and my social media has been alive with indignation ever since.The Nobel did not go to those excellent novelists but to a “song writer”.Some of those same people are still protesting (抗议) that the year before it was awarded to Svetlana Alexievich, a “journalist”.They have decided, for whatever reasons, that song lyrics (歌词) are not literature.

And people are upset because Bob Dylan is the voice of some generation other than theirs, because he works in a popular style, because he does not work in this minute’s popular style, because he appeared on a car commercial that aired during the Super Bowl, because his songwriting skills dropped off—he was famous long ago, after all.

You may not think of Dylan as a poet, but Dylan created a climate in which lyrics were taken seriously.And Dylan accomplished something that few novelists or poets or for that matter songwriters have managed to do in our time: he changed the time he lived.Through words, with music, he affected the opinions and ambition of hundreds of millions of people all over the world.

The Nobel Prize in Literature cannot ever be all things to all people, and while this year’s award failed to accomplish various possible objectives, it was not in any way misapplied.

1.What does the underlined word “indignation” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?

A.Curiosity.

B.Happiness.

C.Excitement.

D.Anger.

2.Why are people upset about Dylan’s being awarded?

A.He failed to represent any generation.

B.He didn’t have good songwriting skills.

C.He played badly in the Super Bowl.

D.He is not popular any longer.

3.Paragraph 4 mainly focuses on Dylan’s .

A.style

B.influence

C.effort

D.ambitions

4.What can we learn from Dylan’s winning the prize?

A.No dish suits all tastes.

B.Great minds think alike.

C.Misfortune may be an actual blessing.

D.Judge not according to the appearance. 语篇解读:诺贝尔文学奖颁发给了Bob Dylan,人们对此褒贬不一,但Bob Dylan对文化的贡献是值得肯定的。

答案及剖析:

1.D 词义猜测题。根据本段画线词后的The Nobel did not go to those excellent novelists but to a “song writer”.Some of those same people are still protesting that the year before it was awarded to Svetlana Alexievich...及第三段中的And people are upset...可知,一些人不满诺贝尔文学奖颁发给了Bob Dylan,由此可知画线词词义为“愤怒,生气”,故D项正确。

2.D 细节理解题。根据第三段中几个because引导的原因状语从句,尤其是最后一个because his songwriting skills dropped off—he was famous long ago , after all.可知,一些人不满将诺贝尔文学奖颁给Bob Dylan是因为他们认为Bob Dylan已经不再出名了,故D项正确。

3.B 段落大意题。通读第四段可知,本段主要介绍了Bob Dylan的作品对人们及文化的影响,故B项正确。

4.A 推理判断题。由文章内容特别是最后一段可知,诺贝尔文学奖颁发给了Bob Dylan,但人们对此褒贬不一,这充分印证了众口难调的道理(No dish suits all tastes),故A项正确。Ⅲ.完形填空

I lost my entire family before the age of 20.I had no money and no emotional support.I was young, 1 ,depressed,and very afraid.

I moved to a new city to 2 from my sad past,and there I met Dr.David Kaplan,a retired music professor.He looked very 3 ,but there was also a sweet and 4 side to him.

About a year after we’d met,his wife invited me to their home for dinner and,over the next few months,I visited them 5 .I discovered that he liked some of the same foods I did and that we both 6 watching movies.I watched lots of old movies with him and he explained to me the parts I didn’t 7 .

During this time,I could hardly afford to pay rent for my apartment.Dr.Kaplan 8 an apartment which was 9 at the time,and he invited me to move in.He only

10 me half of the rent that I had been paying,which made me be able to live a(n)

11 life.I tried to help out around the place whenever I could 12 he

didn’t expect it of me.

In January,2000,I was diagnosed with cancer.Life in 13 has been made a lot more 14 by the phone conversations I have with Dr.Kaplan.His first wife died of cancer,so he knows what I am 15 .He always encourages me to look on the bright side of things.He bought me two teddy bears.David believes in the 16 of teddy bears to help 17 people feel better and,in my case,he’s surely right.

Ours is a 18 relationship,but one that is very precious to me.He is one of the few people who truly 19 me.Even when I have made him 20 ,he has been extremely understanding and forgiving.In a sense,by caring so much for me,he has actually saved my life.

语篇解读:本文是记叙文。作者讲述了自己与一位退休教授的故事。

答案及剖析:

1.B 由上文的I lost my entire family 可知,作者很“孤独(alone)”。

2.C 上文讲到作者失去亲人,据此可推测,作者搬到新的城市是为了“逃避(escape)”凄惨的往事。

3.D 由下文的but there was also a sweet...side to him可知,空格处应该是与sweet 意思相反的词,故选“serious(严肃的)”。

4.C 空格处应是与上一空意思相反并与sweet意思相近的词,故选“funny(有趣的)”。

5.A 由下文的I discovered that...I watched lots of old movies with him可推测,作者“经常(frequently)”去Dr.Kaplan家。

6.B 由下文的I watched lots of old movies with him 可知,作者和Dr.Kaplan都“喜欢(enjoyed)”看电影。

7.A Dr.Kaplan给作者解释老电影中作者不“理解(understand)”的部分。

8.C 9.C 由下文的he invited me to move in可知,Dr.Kaplan“拥有(owned)”一个“空(empty)”房子。

10.A charge在此处是收费的意思。他收我一半的房租。

11.D 他收作者一半的房租,这样,作者的生活就“安逸的”,不用操心的。

12.D I tried to help out与he didn’t expect it of me 之间是让步关系,故选though。

13.B 由上文的I was diagnosed with cancer 可推测,此处指在“医院(hospital)”的生活。

14.C 和Dr.Kaplan的电话谈话使作者在医院的生活更容易承受。bearable能忍受的,可以承受的。

15.B 由上文的His first wife died of cancer可知,由于Dr.Kaplan的前妻死于癌症,所以他知道我正“经历(going through)”什么样的痛苦。

16.D 17.A Dr. Kaplan相信泰迪熊具有使“生病的(sick)”人感觉好点的“力量(power)”。

18.B 作者与Dr.Kaplan的关系虽“简单(simple)”,但是对作者而言却很珍贵。

19.A 由上文可知,Dr.Kaplan是少数几个真正“关心(cares for)”作者的人之一。

20.D 由下文的he has been extremely understanding and forgiving可知,此处指即使当作者令Dr.Kaplan“生气(angry)”。

按住Ctrl键单击鼠标打开配套教学视频名师讲课播放 必修5 Unit 1 JOHH SHOW DEFEATS “KING CHOLERA” John Snow was a famous doctor in London - so expert, indeed, that he attend ed Queen Victoria as her personal physician. But he became inspired when he tho ught about helping ordinary people exposed to cholera. This was the deadly dise ase of its day. Neither its cause nor its cure was understood. So many thousand s of terrified people died every time there was an outbreak. John Snow wanted t o face the challenge and solve this problem. He knew that cholera would never b e controlled until its cause was found. He became interested in two theories that possibly explained how cholera ki lled people. The first suggested that cholera multiplied in the air. A cloud of dangerous gas floated around until it found its victims. The second suggested that people absorbed this disease into their bodies with their meals. From the stomach the disease quickly attacked the body and soon the affected person die d. John Snow suspected that the second theory was correct but he needed eviden ce. So when another outbreak hit London in 1854, he was ready to begin his enqu iry. As the disease spread quickly through poor neighbourhoods, he began to gat her information. In two particular streets, the cholera outbreak was so severe that more than 500 people died in ten days. He was determined to find out why. First he marked on a map the exact places where all the dead people had liv ed. This gave him a valuable clue about the cause of the disease. Many of the d eaths were near the water pump in Broad Street (especially numbers 16, 37, 38 a nd 40). He also noticed that some houses (such as 20 and 21 Broad Street and 8 and 9 Cambridge Street) had had no deaths. He had not foreseen this, so he made further investigations. He discovered that these people worked in the pub at 7 Cambridge Street. They had been given free beer and so had not drunk the water from the pump. It seemed that the water was to blame. Next, John Snow looked into the source of the water for these two streets. He found that it came from the river polluted by the dirty water from London. H e immediately told the astonished people in Broad Street to remove the handle f rom the pump so that it could not be used. Soon afterwards the disease slowed d own. He had shown that cholera was spread by germs and not in a cloud of gas. In another part of London, he found supporting evidence from two other deat hs that were linked to the Broad Street outbreak. A woman, who had moved away f rom Broad Street, liked the water from the pump so much that she had it deliver ed to her house every day. Both she and her daughter died of cholera after drin king the water. With this extra evidence John Snow was able to announce with ce rtainty that polluted water carried the virus.

-必修 5 Unit 2 The United Kingdom Reading PUZZLES IN GEOGRAPHY People may wonder why different words are used to describe these four countries: England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. You can clarify this question if you study British history. First there was England. Wales was linked to it in the thirteenth century. Now when people refer to England you find Wales included as well. Next England and Wales were joined to Scotland in the seventeenth century and the name was changed to "Great Britain". Happily this was accomplished without conflict when King James of Scotland became King of England and Wales as well. Finally the English government tried in the early twentieth century to form the United Kingdom by getting Ireland connected in the same peaceful way. However, the southern part of Ireland was unwilling and broke away to form its own government. So only Northern Ireland joined with England, Wales and Scotland to become the United Kingdom and this was shown to the world in a new flag called the Union Jack. To their credit the four countries do work together in some areas (eg, the currency and international relations), but they still have very different institutions. For example, Northern Ireland, England and Scotland have different educational and legal systems as well as different football teams for competitions like the World Cup! England is the largest of the four countries, and for convenience it is divided roughly into three zones. The zone nearest France is called the South of England, the middle zone is called the Midlands and the one nearest to Scotland is known as the North. You find most of the population settled in the south, but most of the industrial cities in the Midlands and the North of England. Although, nationwide, these cities are not as large as those in China, they have world-famous football teams and some of them even have two! It is a pity that the industrial cities built in the nineteenth century do not attract visitors. For historical architecture you have to go to older but smaller towns built by the Romans. There you will find out more about British history and culture. The greatest historical treasure of all is London with its museums, art collections, theatres, parks and buildings. It is the centre of national

高考真题题组训练(八) Ⅰ.阅读理解(2016全国Ⅱ,B) Five years ago,when I taught art at a school in Seattle,I used Tinkertoys as a test at the beginning of a term to find out something about my students.I put a small set of Tinkertoys in front of each student,and said:“Make something out of the Tinkertoys.You have 45 minutes today-and 45 minutes each day for the rest of the week.” A few students hesitated to start.They waited to see what the rest of the class would do.Several others checked the instructions and made something according to one of the model plans provided.Another group built something out of their own imaginations. Once I had a boy who worked experimentally with Tinkertoys in his free time.His constructions filled a shelf in the art classroom and a good part of his bedroom at home.I was delighted at the presence of such a student.Here was an exceptionally creative mind at work.His presence meant that I had an unexpected teaching assistant in class whose creativity would infect(感染) other students. Encouraging this kind of thinking has a downside.I ran the risk of losing those students who had a different style of thinking.Without fail one would declare,“But I’m just not creative.” “Do you dream at night when you’re asleep?” “Oh,sure.” “So tell me one of your most interesting dreams.”The student would tell something wildly imaginative.Flying in the sky or in a time machine or growing three heads.“That’s pretty creative.Who does that for you?” “Nobody.I do it.” “Really-at night,when you’re asleep?” “Sure.” “Try doing it in the daytime,in class,okay?” 1.The teacher used Tinkertoys in class in order to .

人教版高中英语必修五知识点详解

人教版高中英语必修五知识点详解 Units 1-2 1. doubt doubt是高考中的高频考查词汇。doubt可作动词和名词,是新课标重点词汇。其命题角度为:①作动词时, 若为肯定句,后跟宾语从句,通常用if/whether引导,若为否定句,则通常用that引导。 ②doubt作名词时,通常用于There is no doubt that ...(毫无疑问)结构。2010年高考对doubt的考查还将集中 在其后跟从句时连接词的选择上,也有可能将doubt与其他动词或名词放在一起进行词义辨析。 2. expose expose是新课标要求掌握的单词,应重点掌握它的义项及常见用法,特别是be exposed to 句式,其中to为介词,后跟名词、代词和动名词;同时注意exposed to作后置定语和用于句首作状语的用法。另外,being exposed to结构用动名词形式作主语也是重点和难点,极易考查。 预测2010年命题方向为exposed to 作状语和定语的用法。 3. absorb absorb是新课标重点单词,重点掌握其“吸收(液体,热);吸收,理解(知识)”的词义及其be absorbed in(全神贯注于……)的用法,易考点为该短语位于句首作状语和作后置定语两点,考生应能掌握be absorbed by(为某事物所吸引);还应联系be engaged in, be devoted to, be involved in和be lost in等常见重点近义短语。 4. apart from apart from是常见介词短语,意为“除……之外”,考生应熟练掌握近义的词和短语:except, besides, in addition (to), other than, except for, except that, except when等。预测2010年高考会在单项填空题中直接考查或者会出现 在阅读理解题中。 5. available available是新课标重点单词,在近几年高考和各地的模拟考试中出现的频率极高,主要考点为:①词义(可得到的,可用的)。命题形式常为形容词词义辨析,如区分accessible, acceptable, sensible, favourite, average, convenient 等。②用法。be available to意为“可利用的”,be available for意为“使……可以享受某物;使……买得起某物”, 要了解二者的区别。 预测2010年高考命题会以考查词义或者形容词短语作后置定语为命题方向。 6. consist of consist of是近几年高考高频考查短语。①理解其词义“组成,构成”。②考查与其他近义词组的用法异同点。 如be made up of, be composed of, constitute, be formed of 等。考生要特别注意consist of要用主动形式表达, 不用系表结构。预测这一考点将成为2010年高考考查的重点,特别是用consisting of 作后置定语。 7. break down 由break构成的动词短语是历年高考命题的重点。考生必须明确break down的几个常见义项,根据不同的语 境加以判断。break down,break up, break off, break away, break in等,都要求考生熟知它们的常见义项,因为 命题时可能会对该短语直接考查,也可在短文中考查对其意义的理解。 8. only+状语(状语从句)位于句首构成部分倒装 这是考生必须熟练掌握的句式之一,以往的高考题中已多次考查到。倒装句式有多种情况,该句式为日常交 际中较常见的一种。特别提示:only只有强调状语或者状语从句才构成部分倒装,强调主语或宾语不用倒装。 预测该句式是2010年高考命题考查的重点。 重要词汇拓展 Unit 1 Great scientists 1. ____ n. 特征;特性 2. _____ vt.&vi. 结束;推断出→______ n. 结论 3. _____ vt. 打败;战胜;使受挫 4. ______ vt. 参加;出席;照顾;护理→_____ n. 参加;出席;侍从;看护 5. _____ vt. 暴露;揭露;使曝光→_____ n. 暴露;揭穿;揭发 6. _____ vt.& n. 治愈;痊愈→______adj.可治愈的 ______ vt.& n. 控制;支配 8. _____ vt. 吸收;吸引;使专心→______adj. 被吸收的;全神贯注的 9. _____ adj. 严重的;严厉的;剧烈的 characteristic 2. conclude;conclusion 3. defeat 4. attend;attendance 5. expose;exposure 6. cure;curable 7. control 8. absorb;absorbed 9. severe 10. _____ vt. 宣布;通告→______n. 宣布;宣告;通知 11. ______ vt. 命令;指示;教导→_____ adj.有教育意义的;有指导意义的→_____n.指导;指示;指令→_____ n. 教师;讲师;指导员 12. _____ vt.&vi. 捐献;贡献;捐助→______n.贡献;奉献 13. _____ adj. 有创造力的;创造性的;独创的→______n.创造;创作 14. _____ adj. 热情的;热心的→______ n. 热心;热情

But he became inspired when he tho ught about helping ordinary people exposed to cholera. This was the deadly diseas e of its day. Neither its cause nor its cure was understood. So many thousands of terrified people died every time there was an outbreak. John Snow wanted to face the challenge and solve this problem. He knew that cholera would never be contr olled until its cause was found. He became interested in two theories that possibly explained how cholera kille d people. The first suggested that cholera multiplied in the air. A cloud of dangero us gas floated around until it found its victims. The second suggested that people absorbed this disease into their bodies with their meals. From the stomach the dis ease quickly attacked the body and soon the affected person died. John Snow suspected that the second theory was correct but he needed evide nce. So when another outbreak hit London in 1854, he was ready to begin his en quiry. As the disease spread quickly through poor neighbourhoods, he began to gat her information. In two particular streets, the cholera outbreak was so severe that more than 500 people died in ten days. He was determined to find out why. First he marked on a map the exact places where all the dead people had liv ed. This gave him a valuable clue about the cause of the disease. Many of the de aths were near the water pump in Broad Street (especially numbers 16, 37, 38 an d 40). He also noticed that some houses (such as 20 and 21 Broad Street and 8 and 9 Cambridge Street) had had no deaths. He had not foreseen this, so he mad e further investigations. He discovered that these people worked in the pub at 7 C ambridge Street. They had been given free beer and so had not drunk the water f rom the pump. It seemed that the water was to blame. Next, John Snow looked into the source of the water for these two streets. He found that it came from the river polluted by the dirty water from London. He imm ediately told the astonished people in Broad Street to remove the handle from the pump so that it could not be used. Soon afterwards the disease slowed down. He had shown that cholera was spread by germs and not in a cloud of gas. In another part of London, he found supporting evidence from two other deaths that were linked to the Broad Street outbreak. A woman, who had moved away fr om Broad Street, liked the water from the pump so much that she had it delivered to her house every day. Both she and her daughter died of cholera after drinking the water. With this extra evidence John Snow was able to announce with certaint y that polluted water carried the virus. To prevent this from happening again, John Snow suggested that the source o f all the water supplies be examined. The water companies were instructed not to expose people to polluted water any more. Finally "King Cholera" was defeated. COPERNICUS’ REVOLUTIONRRY THEORY
