It is certainly newsworthy that Julia is the first new Muppet (提线木偶)in a decade in Sesame Street, a TV program for children,but that is not the only thing that makes her special.The cheery , greeneyed 4yearold, who has autism(自闭症),is also here to expose young kids to those with autism and teach them about acceptance.The creators decided to bring the Muppet on air so that she would be able to reach millions more kids and families.However,as autism looks different in everyone,it can be hard to introduce such a character properly.Sesame Workshop consulted over 250 educators,psychologists,and autism organizations.In Julia's first episode,viewers observe common problems with kids who suffer autism and similar disorders.For example,when the other Muppets want to play hideandseek,Julia starts jumping up and down with excitement.Instead of laughing at her or correcting her,the group of Muppets start jumping with her and it becomes a new game.And when Julia first meets Big Bird,another Muppet,she ignores him.At first,Big Bird is hurt,but he learns that it doesn't mean she dislikes him—she just communicates with strangers in a different way.Julia was an instant hit.Families quickly connect with the little redhaired girl.Sherrie Westin,an executive vice president at Sesame Workshop,says her favorite feedback came from a mother,who used Julia to explain to her autistic daughter what the condition meant, inspiring the daughter to say,“So I'm amazing too,right?”Autism affects 1 in 68 children in the United States and scores more worldwide.Hopefully,by watching Julia,kids will see that everyone should be treated equally and appreciated.1.What does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 1 refer to?A.Sesame Street's Muppets.B.Young kids.C.Children with autism.D.The creators of Julia.2.Why did Sesame Workshop consult many experts?A.To make the new Muppet entertaining.B.To get their advice on the cure for autism.C.To make autism better known through Julia.D.To make more money through the TV program.3.How do the other Muppets react to Julia's behavior in the game?A.They follow her. B.They ignore her.C.They correct her. D.They laugh at her.4.Why did the author mention the mother and her autistic daughter?A.To make Sesame Street popular.B.To help people with autism.C.To show the influence of Julia.D.To draw public attention to them.【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了美国电视节目《芝麻街》中出现的新的提线木偶Julia。

In the morning light, I could see the shadows that were etched(蚀刻)deep within the lines surrounding his eyes.Each morning I walked this route with my daughter to her kindergarten class. We were new to the neighborhood so that I didn’t know many of my neighbors. On one beautiful autumn morning, as we passed his house, my daughter called out to him, “Hi, Mr. Man!” Always the outgoing child, I wasn’t surpris ed at her enthusiasm. But her cheerfulness soon faded when the man didn’t look at her and say “Hi” back.As we continued on our walk to school, my daughter asked why the man didn’t want to say hi to her. Because I didn’t have an answer, I said simply, “May be he is having a bad day.” later I knew that Bob lost his wife in a car accident.A few days later, as we approached Bob’s house on our way to school, my daughter called out “Hi Mr. Man!” and as usual, he didn’t respond.

We had a TV series in London. One of our fellow TV presenters seriously upset the camera crew when they arrived at his house. He was rude and unconcerned, treating them like lowly workers. Minutes later, when the camera was turned on,he became the perfectly smiling spiritual figure he was publicly known to be. But, as the crew told us later, he had already shown them that he didn't walk his talk.In contrast, Ed was meeting with Jo, our TV producer, in a small London cafe. If you have ever been to London you'll know that in such cafe the tables are very close. Two well dressed African men sat down next to them, which effectively meant they were sharing the same table. Ed asked the two strangers where theywere from and one said, "South Africa. " The man pulled out his business card—his name was Jacob Zuma who, at that time, was the President of the ANC but isnow the President of South Africa.How we walk our talk shows far more than just our public behavior. Rather, it highlights how we view the world and our place in it. Jacob Zuma showed us how he treats others—with the fairness, consideration and respect that he treats all beings. No matter who we are, whether a street cleaner or a president, we are all equal, here together as one human family.1.What can we learn about the TV presenter?A. He felt upset before the camera.B. He was known for his being impolite.C. His deeds didn't agree with his words.D. He pretended to be polite to the camera crew.2.Which word can best describe Jacob Zuma according to the text?A. Friendly.B. Humorous.C. Generous.D. Serious.3.Why did Ed go to the small London cafe?A. To film a TV series.B. To interview Jacob Zuma.C. To meet with a TV producer.D. To observe people's public behavior.4.What is the text mainly about? presenters are often too proud.B. There still exists inequality in society.C.I. earned people are more likely to be polite.D. People should treat others with equal respect.【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文。
试题习题、尽在百度选修6 Unit 1 Art艺术记忆晨读·Abstract ArtAbstract art used to be controversial. On one hand, the artists stopped painting delicate figures but attempted to adoptspecial techniques to give people different visual impacts. On the other hand, their works, including sculptures carvedout of marble or fragile clay, were all with a specific aim of showing feelings. Some conventional scholars who wereallergic to abstract art said it was evidently ridiculous and neither art nor geometry. Their Traditional Art Committeepredicted its soon disappearing.But nowadays, abstract art has become part of the permanent possessions of contemporary civilization. Galleries alongthe Madison Avenue give scores ofsuperb exhibitions on typical abstract works, appealing to many who have apreference for abstract art. The Shadow of Egypt, a caféin this district, has become the home to those aggressive abstractartists. Consequently, it is not a coincidence for you to meet one of these artists of great reputation in the flesh. They areasked for signatures and given bunches of fragrant flowers plus they are given a great deal of praise by their faithfulfans.抽象艺术抽象艺术曾经颇受争议,一方面,抽象艺术家们不再画精致的画像,而是试图采用特别的技巧给人们以不同的视觉冲击;另一方面,他们的作品,包括用大理石和易碎的粘土雕刻出来的雕像,都以表达感情为其明确的目的.有些对抽象艺术反感的传统学者说抽象艺术是极其明显地荒谬可笑,说它既不是艺术,又不是几何学,他们的传统艺术委员会还预言了它的迅速消失.但是到了今天,抽象艺术已经成为当代文明永久财产的一部分,麦蒂逊大道的画廊为典型的抽象艺术作品举办了许多出色的展览,吸引了许多对抽象艺术有偏爱的人.这区有家叫埃及之影的咖啡馆已经成为那些有进取精神的抽象艺术家们活动的根据地,所以,亲眼见到一位名声极大的艺术家本人并不是什么巧合的事,他们被忠实的崇拜者索取签名,并被给予成束的芬芳花朵和大量的赞扬.I.单词盘点→__________(adv.) 忠实地抽象的;深奥的(n.) 摘要1.__________(adj.)2.__________(n.) 雕塑目标;目的 5.___________(n.))努力向某方向(vt.&vi.) 3.__________(n.) 美术陈列室;画廊瞄准;(常规的;传统的;因循守旧的信任;信心;信念 4.__________(n.) 6.__________ (adj.) 忠实的→__________(adj.) 按照惯例;传统地→_________(adv.)仔细审题、认真作答.试题习题、尽在百度过敏过敏性的;…展览;陈列;展览展览;陈列;呈现;证敢作敢为的;侵略的;好斗学肉;肌肉;肉几何束;林荫道;道路;大偏爱;喜有感染力;呼吁;求呼吁;恳…上(n.(vt.)精细的;易碎的;脆弱名声;名文明;文化;文明社视觉的;看得见香的;令人愉快当代的;同时代永久的;持久区;区域;行政委员署名;签短语回顾II.__________________ 6.集中;全神贯注于__________________ 1.巧合地__________________ __________________ 偏爱7. 2.大量__________________ 3.(可是)另一方面__________________8.对……过敏__________________ __________________ 9.企图做某事活着的;本人4.__________________ 5.(对某人)有吸引力;(使某人)感兴趣也;还;而且10.__________________仔细审题、认真作答.试题习题、尽在百度III.句式扫描th 13century changing in the it 1.But was evident that ideas werewhen painters like Giotto di Bondone began to paint religious scenesin a more realistic way.(教材P2)但是,很显然到了13世纪时,观念在发生变化,像乔托这样的画家开始一种比较现实的风格来画宗教场景.2.If the rules of perspective had not been discovered,no one wouldhave been able to paint such realistic pictures.(教材P2)如果没有发现透视法,人们就不可能画出如此逼真的画.3.Without the new paints and the new technique,we would not beable to see the many great masterpieces for which this period isfamous.(教材P2)没有新的颜料和新的(绘画)手法,我们就不能看到很多使这一时代著名的杰作.4.Among the painters who broke away from the traditional style ofpainting were the Impressionists,who lived and worked in Paris.(教材P2)在那些突破传统画法的画家中有生活和工作在巴黎的印象派画家.5.Many art lovers would rather visit this small art gallery than anyother in New York.(教材P6)许多艺术爱好者宁愿参观这个小艺术馆而不参观纽约其他的艺术馆. 仔细审题、认真作答.试题习题、尽在百度IV.小试牛刀仔细审题、认真作答.Ⅰ.单词填空1.I wish everyone __________(be) rich so that there would be no fight for food again.2.Danny is their _______________(adopt) son.3.It_____________(predict) that house prices would continue to fall.4.If I _____________(set) off a little earlier,I would have caught the train.5.I_____________(aim) at the tree but hit the car by mistake.6.I find the ending of the film very ___________(convince).7.Many people expressed a strong ___________(prefer) for the plan.8.We have already bought the house but we will not take _____________(possess) of it until May.Ⅱ.短语填空on the one hand...on the other hand,a great deal of,in the flesh,by coincidence,concentrate on,as a consequence1.____________________,Mary and Jim were going to Beijing on the same train.2.Lucy won't go hiking with us.___________________,she is not feeling well;________________,she doesn't like outdoor sports.3.This is a difficult project because it requires_______________time and energy.4.My father smokes heavily;________________,he coughs frequently.5.The fans were very excited for they saw the superstar_________________at the theatre.6.A person who constantly watches the clock can never________________________his work.Ⅲ.单句填词1.In a word,the Program aims at_________________(encourage)students to be active citizens and engage themselves in making a difference in society.2.A teacher who________________(possess)a sense of humour has the potential to be an excellent teacher.3.Had we not used an out-of-date train schedule, we wouldn't have_____________(miss)the train.4.If I hadn't______________(drink)alcohol last night.

genius、A major Vermeer exhibition opens this month at the Louvre in Paris,whose permanent collection includes his great painting of a womanabsorbed in close, visually demanding work, The Lacemaker (about 1669-1670)、Like other paintings by Vermeer, this image represents modernculture、So attracted are today’s art lovers by Vermeer that it was thought shocking when a recent survey found that 82% of Americans can’t name who painted Girl with a Pearl Earring、Well, maybe they don’t go to the movies much、It is not true to say he was forgotten—that would suggest he was famous in his lifetime、He was not、Vermeer was one more painter among the many who worked for money in the Dutch Republic in the 17th century、He was not a star like Rembrandt、He obviously took himself and his art seriously、His self-referential painting The Art of Painting proves that、Even though he worked all his life in Delft, he painted only 35 known works and left his family poor when he died in 1675 at the age of 43、It is fitting that Paris is celebrating Vermeer, because it was the French avantgarde(先锋派) in the 19th century who saved him from being completely forgotten、Compare his painting Woman in Blue Reading a Letter or The Little Street with, say, Edouard Manet’s A Bar at the Folies-Bergère(1882)or Camille Pissarro’s The Boulevard Montmartre at Night(1897) and it is easy to see why the art of Vermeer found its natural audience in Parisian Bohemia、All these artists are likely to have known about and admired Vermeer due to the efforts of thecritic Thoré-Bürger, a veteran of the 1848 Revolution、Vermeer’s rediscovery is part of the history of modern French art、Vermeer is not only a great artist、He is a great modern artist、【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了著名画家Johannes Vermeer的生平和他的艺术特点、4、How many paintings produced

popularity of his works、D、He considered painting as a way to have fun、C解析:推理判断题、根据第四段最后一句可知,尽管他终身在代尔夫特工作,但是直到他在43岁去世时仅留下了35件被人们所知的作品,他是在贫困中离世的;结合第一段可知,人们在数百年后才发现他的艺术价值;据此可以判断,他没能看到他的作品受欢迎,故C项正确、6、Who

Life can be so wonderful, full of adventure and joy. It can also be full of challenges, setbacks(挫折) and heartbreaks. Whatever our circumstances, we generally still have dreams, hopes and desires that little something more we want for ourselves and our loved ones. Yet knowing we can have more can also create a problem, because when we go to change the way we do things, up come the old patterns and pitfalls(陷阱) that stopped us from seeking what we wanted in the first place.This tension between what we feel we can have and what we’re seemingly able to have is the niggling(烦人的)suffering, the anxiety we feel. This is where we usually think it’s easier to just give up. But we’re never meant to let go of part of us that knows we can have more. The intelligence behind that knowing is us —the real us. It’s the part that believes in the life and its possibilities. If you drop that, you begin to feel a little "dead" inside because you’re dropping "you".So, if we have this capability but somehow life seems to keep us stuck,how do we break these patterns?Decide on a new course and make one decision at a time. This is good advice for a new adventure or just getting through today’s challenges.While, deep down, we know we can do it, our mind — or the minds of those close to us — usually says we can’t. That isn’t a reason to stop, it’s just the mind, that little man or woman on your shoulder, trying to talk you out of something again. It has done it many times before. It’s all about starting simple and doing it now.Decide and act before overthinking. When you do this you may feel a little, or large, release from the jail of your mind and you’ll be on your way.1. It can be inferred from the first two paragraphs that we should ________.A. slow down and live a simple lifeB. be careful when we choose to changeC. stick to our dreams under any circumstancesD. be content with what we already have2. What is the key to breaking the old patterns?A. To focus on every detail.B. To decide and take immediate action.C. To listen to those close to us.D. To think twice before we act.3. Which of the following best explains the underlined part in the last paragraph?A. Escape from your punishment.B. Realization of your dreams.C. Freedom from your tension.D. Reduction of your expectations.4. What does the author intend to tell us?A. It’s easier than we think to get what we want.B. It’s important to learn to accept sufferings in life.C. It’s impractical to change our way of thinking.D. It’s harder than we expect to follow a new course.【文章大意】本文是一篇议论文。

statues and buildings,don’t worry.It’s just Alessandro Ricci gathering material for hi s famous smog paintings.Ricci is not a common artist,because he used smog as the main medium of his artworks.Unlike other painters seeking fast recognition of their talent,he doesn’t really care about “being this big artist”.Instead he is more concerned about bringing attention to how much smog there really is in his home town and how it’s destroying both its monuments and people.Although he did take a couple of art classes a few years back,he is mainly selftaught,doesn’t work in a studio,donates most of his work,and refuses to play by the rules of the Florentine Art Gallery,which he considers corrupt.Alessandro Ricci believes selling his smog paintings will not only compromise his principles,but also contradict the very thing he’s trying to do—raise awareness about smog pollution in this city.Alessandro lives with his parents nearby Florence,but almost every day he visits the streets of the city,and collects smog for his paintings.He gets it from several meters above ground,from clean surfaces like marble,plastic and stone,using damp pieces of cotton.Then he applies the smog directly onto a cloth and creates street scenes and reproductions of the very buildings from which he got the dangerous material.Finally,he seals his paintings with a natural resin (树脂).His actions helped win a small victory for the people of Florence,as in October 25,2018 the Duomo area of the city was made pedestrianonly.But there is still a long way to go,the artist believes,and only cleaning the thick layer of smog that has accumulated throughout Florence would take several years.Still,he continues to paint his unique smog artworks and let the people know how polluted the environment they live in really is.1.What does the text mainly tell us?A.Florentine artist fights pollution by painting with smog.B.Ricci invents a unique way to paint buildings in Florence.C.People in Florence gather smog to create street scenes.D.Florence takes measures to improve the polluted city.2.In what way is Ricci quite different from other artists?A.He lacks talent in art work.B.He cares little about fame.C.He hates all the art Galleries.D.He likes to do things at will.3.Ricci paints his unique smog artworks aiming to________.A.fight government corruptionB.advertise the monumentsC.create more street scenesD.raise awareness about pollution4.What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?A.The place where Ricci lives.B.The problem that Florence faces.C.The way Riccis paints with smog.D.The materials for his painting.5.We can learn from the last paragraph that________.A.Duomo area of Florence has become more crowded with trafficB.Ricci’s action has brought no change to the people of FlorenceC.Ricci will continue to raise Florentine people’s awareness about pollutionD.Smog pollution in Florence will be completely settled in several years课时作业(二十六)Ⅰ.单词拼写1.specific 2.appeal

Career criminals begin their antisocial behavior during their toddler (学步的儿童) years and may go on with a life of crime if their behavior isn’t challenged, scientists have discovered. While most children grow out of their bad behavior by adulthood, a study found those who had “callous unemotional (冷漠无情的) characteristics” could grow up to have problems with the law later in life. Behavior characteristics such as a lack of sympathy and lying in childhood could have an impact years on.Luke Hyde, assistant professor of psychology at the University of Michigan, said, “These are signs for parents and doctors to watch out for, as they may signal more than just the terrible twos.” He said, “Parents both take care of their child and provide their c hild’s genes so it’s been difficult to know if we’re seeing that parenting causes callous unemotional behaviors, or if it is just a sign of the genes being passed to the child.”The research also discovered that strict parenting is linked to the development of antisocial behavior. Scientists looked at 561 families in an adoption study that examined biological mothers’ antisocial behavior. The scientists found children of antisocial mothers were also more likely to exhibit the same behavior characteristics, despite having limited or no touch with them as they were adopted as babies.“The really exciting take-home message from this study is that small, day-to-day positive interactions (互动) that parents have with their young children can make a huge difference in children’s development,’’ said Leslie Leve, a professor at the University of Oregon who co-led the data collection.“Even when children have inherited (遗传) a very challenging set of behaviors, hearing ‘good job’ or receiving encouragement can help prote ct them from developing serious problems coming from their inherited difficulties,” he added. The study, worked on by scientists from the University of Michigan, Penn State University and the University of Oregon has been published in the American Journal of Psychiatry. Researchers will follow the group of children through early adolescence to determineif these behaviors still continue to exist from the toddler years.1.What’s the main idea of the passage?A. Kids’ social behaviors are related to crime.B. Criminals begin their crimes during adolescence.C. Antisocial behaviors of kids could be on their way to a life of crime.D. Warmhearted kids are more likely to be criminals in the future.2.What conclusion might the scientists draw from the study?A. Antisocial behaviors might be inherited.B. The genes decide kids’ antisocial behaviors.C. Antisocial behaviors have nothing to do with crimes.D. Adopted babies surely have antisocial behaviors when they grow up.3.What can be inferred from the passage?A. Parenting is the main reason that causes kids’ antisocial behaviors.B. What causes career criminals to begin their crimes is their parents’ characteristics.C. Leslie Leve has a doubtful attitude to adoptive mothers’ active interactions with kids.D. Inherited antisocial behaviors of kids can be lightened by positive parenting.4.Why will researchers track kids’ process of growing?A. To make sure if kids’ behaviors will last.B. To make sure if praise will change kids.C. To determine if kids’ behaviors will be inherited.D. To determine if parents’ comfort will protect kids.【文章大意】研究人员发现孩子的反社会行为有可能使他们走向犯罪的道路,积极的育儿方式可以减轻孩子的反社会行为。

Flaubert had it that “one way of tolerating existence is to lose oneself in literature as in an unending party”.It turns out that reading doesn't only help us to tolerate existence,but actually lengthens it.A recent study by Yale University researchers,published online in the journal Social Science & Medicine,concluded that “book readers experienced a 20 percent reduction in the risk of death over the 12 years of followup compared to nonreaders”.The data was obtained from the study sponsored by the National Institute on Aging.The study looked at 3,635 subjects,all older than 50,whom the researchers divided into three groups:those who didn't read books,those who read up to 3.5 hours a week and those who read more than 3.5 hours a week.The findings were remarkable:on average,book readers survived almost two years longer than those who didn't crack open a book.The more the subjects read,the longer they lived,but as little as 30 minutes a day was still beneficial in terms of survival.Accounting for factors such as education level,income and health status,the study found that those who read more than 3.5 hours weekly were 23 percent less likely to die during that 12year period.Those who read up to 3.5 hours—an average of a half hour a day—were 17 percent less likely.“In other words,just like a healthy diet and exercise,books appear to promote a significant survival advantage,”the authors concluded.Why or how that's_the_case remains unclear;the research showedonly an association between book reading and longevity,not a causal relationship.But the findings are not so surprising.Other recent research showed that reading novels appears to increase both brain connectivity and sympathy.1.Why does the author mention Flaubert's words in the first paragraph?A.To stress the value of reading.B.To compare reading with a party.C.To introduce the study on reading.D.To support the findings of the study.2.From the text,what can we learn about the study?A.No similar study on reading has been carried out.B.The process of the study lasted more than ten years.C.It shows readers live two years longer than nonreaders.D.It shows time spent on reading increases one's love for it.3.What do the underlined words“that's the case”probably mean?A.Reading books enables people to live longer.B.Reading is similar to a healthy diet and exercise.C.Reading books is closely associated with longevity.D.Reading increases brain connectivity and sympathy.4.Where can we most probably read this text?A.https:///lifeandstyle/family.B.https:///b/books/comingsoon.C.https:///news/toyourhealth.D.http:///Book_Recommendations.【解题导语】研究发现,阅读和长寿有一定的联系,阅读者的平均寿命比不读书的人长将近两岁。

"For instanee in China if you want to open a bank account, you don't wait, you just do it at the counter> ” Out・of・hours and weekend work is standard in China, but in Britain, the weekend is for fami]y and friends・Jack Che n, who left his home la nd 12 years ago and is now a lawyer in Belgium says office politics are simpler in Europe, partly because the hierarchy (等级制度)is less rigid than in China, where the boss really is the boss and social class in the office is very obvious and important. As a result, staff in a Chinese company think very carefully about how to present their views and ideas. Employees in the West can share their opinions more freely. Tn China you should have the wisdom to say something in an appropriate way. But in Europe you can just say what you want.The newest Chinese arrivals have a very different view to previous generalions, according to Sharon Jin, who moved to the US 20 years ago and is now an American citizen. “Almost 100%of people of my generation who came to the States want to get a green card, ” she says. “But today younger Chinese plan to work for 10 years here and then return to China to buy a house or look after their parents. ” Whi 1 e a record number of 523,700 students left China to study elsewhere in 2015, roughly 70%〜80% of students abroad have been returning in recent years because of the attractive job market at home, according to the Chinese Ministry of Education (CME)•【文章大意】以前,中国人去国外都想获得绿卡,而现在他们计划在国外工作十年以后,再回来买房或照顾父母。
