Passage 1[1]To forgive may be great,but no one ever said it was easy.When someone has deeply hurt you,it can be very difficult to let go of your complaint(抱怨).But forgiveness (宽恕)is possible—and it can be surprising ly helpful to your physical and mental health.[2]So how do you start forgiveness? Try following these steps:[3]Calm yourself.To calm your anger,try a simple stress-management skill.“Take a couple of breaths and think of something that gives you pleasure:a beautiful scene in nature,someone you love,” Luskin says.[4]Don’t wait for an apology.“Many times the person who hurt you has no intention (意图)of apologizing,”Luskin says.“They may have wanted to hurt you or they just don’t see things the same way.So if you wait for people to apologize,you could be waiting an awfully long time.”[5]Take the control away from your offender(对手).Mentally replaying your hurt gives power to the person who cause you pain.“Instead of focusing on your wounded feelings,learn to look for the love,beauty and kindness around you,” Luskin says.[6]Try to see things from t he other person’s view.If you understand that person,you may realize that he or she was acting out of ignorance,fear even love.To gain view,you may want to write a letter to yourself from your offender’s point of view.

Passage 3 (2013·江西高考)[1]Fishing is probably the world’s most popular sport.People spend many dollarseach year on items like boats and four-wheel-drive vehicles.In addition,they spend money on fishing equipment,bait,fuel and boat repairs.And you can see that fishing can be an expensive pastime.Fishing lovers believe that their hobby is worth it.Others say that fishing is spoiling the environment and that it is a cruel hobby.[2]Supporters of fishing say that it is a nice hobby.Firstly,of the millions of people who fish for fun,most only catch enough fish to feed their families.They catch fish that are found in large numbers,so there is little danger to the species (种类).[3]Secondly,recreational fishermen contribute to the economy.They spend money on equipment and other items,and they also spend it indirectly by paying taxes on their equipment and fuel.Those who travel to fishing spots pay for accommodation(食宿)and airfares.This money keeps people in work and provides new jobs each year. [4]Thirdly,fishing is relaxing and fun so it lessens stress.Instead of turning to drugs or alcohol,it is far better to go fishing.People who are relaxed are generally healthier and much nicer to be near—except for the smell of the bait![5]Those who say that there are too many fish thoughtlessly taken from rivers,lakes,streams and oceans.This could lead to the dying out of some species.Modern cars and boats mean that people can fish in remote areas of the world,so no place is safe from greedy fishermen who take both males and females,leaving few fish to produce young.[6]Those against fishing also say that it is a blood sport,which means that an animal must die so that a human can have fun.Many of the fish caught for sport are not suitable for eating,so they are thrown away.Once hooked,fish have no chance of escape.76.What is the main idea of the passage?(no more than 4 words)77.According to Paragraph 2,why does fishing cause little danger to the species?(no more than 8 words)78.List 4 items on which people spend their money for fishing.(no more than 7 words)79.Fill in the blank in Paragraph 5 with proper words.(no more than 4 words)Those who say that there are too many fish thoughtlessly taken from rivers,lakes,streams and oceans.80.What does the word “which”(Line 1,Paragraph 6) probably refer to?(no morethan 3 words)答案:76.Different views on fishing.77.Fishing lovers catch fish found in large numbers.78.boats,vehicles,fishing equipment,bait,fuel,boat repairs,accommodation and airfares(列出其中四项即可)79.disagree with fishing (are against fishing)80.A blood sport.Passage 4 (2013·天津高考)My name is Clara.I still remember that chilly December day,sitting in science class. I’d finished a worksheet early and picked up a TIME for Kids magazine.A piece ofnews caught my eye:NASA was holding an essay contest to name its Mars rover (火星探测器).Before I even knew anything else about it,a single word flooded my11-year-old mind:Curiosity.I couldn’t wait for the bell to ring so I could get started on my essay.That afternoon,I raced home,sat down at the computer,and typed until my fingers ached.“Curiosity is an everlasting flame that burns in everyone’s mind...”Five months later,my mom received a phone call,and immediately,a wide smile spreadacross her face.On August 5,2012,at 10:31 p.m.,the rover named Curiosity touched down safely on the surface of Mars,and I was honored to have a front-row seat in NASA.Curiosity is such an important part of who I am.I have always been fascinated bythe stars,the planets,the sky and the universe.I remember as a little girl,my grandmother and I would sit together in th e backyard for hours.She’d tell me storiesand point out the stars.Grandma lived in China,thousands of miles away from my homein Kansas,but the stars kept us together even when we were apart.They we re always there,yet there was so much I didn’t know about them. That’s what I love somuch about space.People often ask me why we go to faraway places like Mars.My answer is simple:because we’re curious.We human beings do not just hole up in one place.We are constantly wondering and trying to find out what’s over the hill and beyond the horizon.56.How did Clara get the news about the essay contest?(no more than 10 words)57.Why did Clara have a front-row seat in NASA?(no more than 10 words)58.What does Clara remember about the time spent with Grandma?(no more than 15 words)59.What does the underlined phrase “hole up” mean?(1 word)60.In your opinion,why is curiosity important?(no more than 20 words)答案:56.By reading a TIME for Kids magazine./From a TIME for Kids magazine.57.She won the essay contest held by NASA./She named the Mars rover “Curiosity”./“Curiosity” was chosen as the name of the Mars rover.58.She sat together with Grandma listening to her stories about the stars./Her grandma told her stories about the stars./They sat together talking about the stars.59.Stay/Remain/Live/Hide.60.Curiosity is important because it leads to discovery or invention./With curiosity,we keep asking questions and exploring the unknown world./Curiosity drives us through our lives so that we never stop wondering about the things beyondour knowledge.Passage 5 (2013·四川高考)A nurse of 78 this weekend celebrates 60 years of walking the wards—and she hasno plans to retire.Jackie Reid was 18 when she started work in 1953—when the National Health Service (NHS) was just five years old—and is believed to be the oldest nurse in Britain.The diabetes (糖尿病) specialist had to retire at 65 but returned as a nurse withintwo weeks and still does up to four seven-and-a-half hour shifts (轮班) each week.Mrs Reid said:“Nursing is hard if you do it correctly but I love my job.Working for the NHS has been my life.I have no other hobbies because I have worked all my life.”Jackie has worked at a number of different hospitals—including one in Scotland.

Unit 5 Nelson Mandela — a modern hero曼德拉——南非首位黑人总统,被尊称为南非国父。
曼德拉不仅仅是一位伟人,更是人们敬仰的英雄。
Nelson Mandela, the first black president of South Africa who was a symbol (象征) of social justice (公正), passed away on Dec. 5, 2013. His death is a great loss to the whole world, since this modern hero, who used to fight for the black people, helped the black people get the same rights as white people, and began a school to help those who had little learning even during the time when he was put into prison. He was the one who always gave priority to (优先考虑) his nation.Nelson was a great man, but he was more than a great man. He was, is, and always will be a hero. In my view, being a hero means more than making great achievements. In fact, heroes are extraordinary (非凡的), because their hearts are filled with love for people. It is this love that makes them heroes, rather than great men.So this is the difference between great men and heroes. What makes a hero is not only one's achievements, but also his selfless (无私的) love. With great achievements and selfless love, the person can bee a true hero, just like Nelson Mandela.短文注释:1.pass away 去世2.a great loss一个巨大的损失3.used to do 过去常常4.fight for... 为……而奋斗5.put... into prison将……投入监狱6.in my view 在我看来7.make great achievements取得巨大成就8.be filled with 充满9.not only... but also...不但……而且……Section ⅠWarming Up & Reading —Prereading重点单词写作词汇1.quality n.质量;品质;性质2.mean adj. 吝啬的;自私的;卑鄙的3.generous adj. 慷慨的;大方的4.found vt. 建立;建设5.principle n. 法则;原则6.stage n. 舞台;阶段;时期7.vote vt.&vi. 投票;选举n. 投票;选票;表决8.attack vt. 进攻;攻击;抨击拓展词汇1.active adj.积极的;活跃的→actively adv.积极地→activity n.活动2.devote vt.(与to连用)献身;专心于→devoted adj.忠实的;深爱的→devotion n.热爱;献身;奉献3.peaceful adj.和平的;平静的;安宁的→peacefully adv.和平地→peacen.和平;平静;和睦①peace→peaceful和平的②pain→painful 痛苦的③harm→harmful 有害的④power→powerful 强大的⑤meaning→meaningful 有意义的⑥cheer→cheerful 欢乐的后缀ance高频名词全接触①guidance 指导;领导②importance 重要;重要性③ignorance 无知;愚昧④signifi cance 意义;重要性⑤appearance 出现⑥tolerance 宽容;容忍self反身代词①myself 我自己②yourself 你自己③himself 他自己④herself 她自己⑤itself 它自己⑥ourselves 我们自己⑦yourselves 你们自己⑧themselves 他们自己“out of+n.”短语集锦①out of work失业②out of control 失控③out of mind 心不在焉④out of order 有毛病;出故障⑤out of sight 看不见“in+n.”短语面面观①in trouble 在困境中②in danger 处于危险中③in return 作为回报④in vain 徒劳地⑤in order 井然有序⑥in place 在适当的位置Step One:Warming upA famous person may not be a great person, but a great person must be a famous person.1.Who do you think are great persons in the following pictures?答案:A,B and E2.What do you know about Nelson Mandela?He_devotes_his_life_to_helping_his_people_get_the_same_rights_as_white_peop le_in_his_country./He_is_a_national_leader_who_has_been_fighting_for_making_bla ck_and_white_people_equal./Nelson_Mandela_is_regarded_as_one_of_the_greatest_sp iritual_and_political_leaders_of_our_time.Step Two:Fast readingSkim the text and choose the best answers.1.What's the main idea of the text?A.The life of black workers.B.The fight between Mandela and the white people.C.The stories between Mandela and Elias.D.The education of Elias.答案:C2.Match the main idea of each part.Paras.1~2(B) A.The change of Elias' life after he met Nelson Mandela and what Mandela didParas.3~7(A) B.The life of Elias before he met Nelson MandelaStep Three:Careful readingRead the reading passage carefully and choose the best answers according to the text.1.Why did Elias have to leave school?A.He didn't have a passbook.B.His home was far from the school.C.His family couldn't afford the school fees.D.He couldn't read or write.答案:C2.Nelson Mandela opened a black law firm in order to ________.A.make moneyB.help the poor black people with their problemsC.make himself famousD.study law答案:B3.How did Nelson Mandela help Elias keep his job?A.He talked with Elias' boss.B.He helped him get the correct papers.C.He lent him some money.D.He asked him to go to court.答案:B4.What dream did Nelson Mandela have?A.To bee the president of South Africa.B.To win the Nobel Peace Prize.C.To make black and white people equal.D.To blow up some government buildings.答案:CStep Four:Explain difficult sentences1.The time when I first met Nelson Mandela was a very difficult period of my life.[句式分析][尝试翻译]第一次见到纳尔逊·曼德拉的时候,是我一生中非常艰难的时期。

learn how to evaluate themselves.In a word,this period is designed to go over the whole unit.●三维目标1.Knowledge:Sum up what the students have learned in this unit,including:useful verbs,useful

finished your homework?Ss:Yes.T:Very good.Who’d like to introduce your hero/heroine?S1:I want a try.Madam Curie is my heroine.She is a French professor of physics.She was born in Poland in 1867.In 1891 she went to study in Paris University because at that time women were not admitted to universities in Poland.When she was studying in Paris,she lived a poor life,but she worked very hard.In 1895 she married Pierre Curie,and then they worked together on the research into radioactive matter.Theydiscovered two kinds of radioactive matter—polonium and radium.In 1904 she and her husband received a Nobel Prize for Physics.After Mr Curie died in 1906,she went on with her research.She received a second Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1911,so she became the first scientist in the world to win two Nobel Prizes.T:Excellent.Anybody else?S2:Let me try.Albert Einstein is my hero.He was born on March 14,1879 in Ulm,Wurttemberg,Germany.Einstein contributed more than any other scientist since Sir Isaac Newton to our understanding of physical reality.Einstein worked at the patent office in Bern,Switzerland from 1902 to 1909.During this period he completed an astonishing range of theoretical physics publications,written in his spare time,without the benefit of close contact with scientific literature or colleagues.The most well known of these works is Einstein’s 1905 paper proposing “the special theory of relativity.” Later in 1905 Einstein showed how mass and energy were equivalent expressing it in the famous equation:E=mc2.This equation became a cornerstone in the development of nuclear energy.Einstein received the Nobel Prize in 1921 but not for relativity,rather for his 1905 work on the photoelectric effect.He worked on at Princeton until the end of his life on an attempt to unify the laws of physics.Step 3 Summing upT:Good jobs.Today we will finish learning this unit.Now let’s sum up what we have learned in this unit.Here are some guiding notes to help you.Please fill

Unit 5 Nelson Mandela a modern hero I'd like to express my thanks to one of my devoted friends, who helped me selflessly in the past three years. There was a time when my company that was set up 10 years ago was in trouble, which meant I may be out of work.I didn't mean to beg others for help so I refused to turn to anyone. But my friend came. She devoted her time and money to helping me. The last thre e years saw the support and help that she gave me. Only then did I realize how generous she was. With her help, I didn't escape from the fact, which meant I didn't lose heart. And now I have made my dream come true again.我要感谢我的一位挚友,在过去的三年里无私地帮助我。
曾有那么一段时期,我那家成立于十年前的公司陷入困境,这意味着我可能会失业。
我不打算向任何人请求帮助,所以我拒绝求助于任何人。
但是我的朋友来到我的身边。
她不遗余力地倾其时间与金钱来帮助我。
这三年见证了她对我的支持和帮助。
直到那时我才意识到她有多么慷慨。
在她的帮助下,我没有逃避现实,也就是说我没有失去信心。

注意:每个空格只填一个单词。
Passage 1It all began with...Orlando Bloom was not a “good” student at school.Because of dyslexia,a reading and writing disorder(障碍),he struggled in many courses.But Bloom says the dyslexia gave him the encouragement to overcome(克服)his difficulties.In an interview with the Telegraph,the 32-year-old said the condition turned him into an ambitious person.“Because of the dyslexia,I always tho ught I had to work twice as har d as everyone else just to go the same distance,” he said.“That gave me a real kick as a kid and a lot of encouragement later on.In one sense,I guess that I’m grateful (感激的).”Bloom is always preparing it thoroughly(充分地) when it comes to an audition (试镜)for a part.Perhaps this is what won him his role in The Lord of the Rings,a highly successful film trilogy (三部曲).“I really prepared it thoroughly for the audition and it’s paid off,” he said.It was the beginning of a fame that led to even greater success as a movie actor.But unlike some young people who aim for fame and fortune,Bloom believed an acting career has been fulfilling (实现) his childhood fantasies.“Aged 9,I had this girlfriend and we used to have running races in the park to see who would be her boyfriend for the day.I wanted to be like Superman and fly in and rescue her.Once I realized Superman was an actor,I thought,‘That’s for me.’”Bloom has always played special characters,like a knight (骑士) and a prince.It’s difficult to picture him in everyman roles.In October 2009,Bloom was named Goodwill Ambassador (亲善大使) for United Nations International Children’s Emergenc y Fund(UNICEF).His first task would be to filma documentary about the importance of clean water supplies.In fact,Bloom started work for the UNICEF in 2007.On his first visit to Nepal,he was asked by students to take a small part in a play they were performing on local radio.答案:1.rescue/save2.actor3.Because4.struggled5.encouraged6.helped7.prepared8.whatd 10.filmPassage 2 (2013·江苏高考)Quiet Virtue:The ConscientiousThe everyday signs of conscientiousness (认真尽责)—being punctual,careful in doing work,self-dis ciplined,and scrupulous (一丝不苟的) in attending to responsibilities—are t ypical characteristics of the model organizational citizen,the people who keep things running as they should.They follow the rules,help out,and are concerned about the people they work with.It’s the conscientious worker who helps newcomers or updat es people who return after an absence,who gets to work on time and never abuses sick leaves,who always gets things done on deadline. Conscientiousness is a key to success in any field.In studies of jobperformance,outstanding effectiveness for almost all jobs,from semi-skilled labor to sales and management,depends on conscientiousness.It is particularly important for outstanding performance in jobs at the lower levels of an organization: the secretary whose message taking is perfect,the delivery truck driver who is always on time.Among sales representatives for a large American car manufacturer,those who were most conscientious had the largest volume of sales.Conscientiousness also offers a buffer (缓冲) against the threat of job loss in today’s constantly changing market,because employees with this quality are among the most valued.For the sales representatives,their level of conscientiousness mattered almost as much as their sales in determining who stayed on.There is an air around highly conscientious people that makes them seem even better than they actually are.Their reputation for dependability influences managers’evaluations of their work,giving them higher evaluations than objective measures of their performance would predict.But conscientiousness in the absence of social skills can lead to problems.Since conscientious people demand so much of themselves,they can hold other people to their own standards,and so be overly judgmental when other s don’t show the same high levels of model behavior.Factory workers in Great Britain and the United States who were extremely conscientious,for example,tended to criticize co-workers even about failures that seemed unimportant to those they criticized,which damaged their relationships.When conscientiousness takes the form of living up to expectations,it can discourage creativity.In creative professions like art or advertising,openness to wild ideas and sp ontaneity (自发性) are scarce and in demand.Success in such occupations calls for a balance,however; without enough conscientiousness to follow through,people become mere dreamers,with nothing to show for their imaginativeness.答案:71.strict 72.helpful/good 73.Functions/Roles/Importance/Significance74.running/working/going/operating/functioning 75.performance(s)76.fi red/dismissed/jobless 77.problems/t roubles78.higher/subjective/unfair/unjust/prejudiced79.tense/damaged/poor/bad 80.discourage/affect/damagePassage 3 (2013·安徽高考)Aristotle once wrote that “happiness is a state of activity”.In other words,whether you’re seeking life-long satisfaction or a few moments of good cheer,you’ve got to move forward.We’ve interviewed the experts and found five steps to take toward a sunny mood (心情):Over a 30-year period,University of Illinois researchers asked nearly 120,000 people how income,education,political participation,volunteer activities and close relationships affected their happiness.Reported Newsweek’s Sharon Begley on the findings,“The highest levels of happiness are found with the most stable and satisfying relationships.”Singing aloud,talking to a stranger,raising your hand:all may increase a feeling of happiness,according to a study from Wake Forest University.Participants (参与者) followed the development of their moods for two weeks and reported feeling happier when they were more outgoing and less happy when reserved or withdrawn. The editors of gave $5 or $20 to 46 strangers by chance.Half the group was told to spend the money on themselves,while the other half was told to spend it on others.Those who’d shared the wealth felt much happier at the end of the day than those who’d spent it on themselves.There was no difference in happiness between those who spent $5 or $20,suggesting that it’s not how much money you spend,but how y ou spend it,that inspires the spirit.Studies from the Positive Psychology Center showed that discouraged people who wrote down three good things that happened to them each day for six months reported an improved attitude.Drinking water really can help keep you cheerful.A small 2012 study from the University of Connecticut suggested that even slight dehydration (脱水) affected the moods of its female participants.答案:76.Look(ing)/Search(ing)/Seek(ing) 77.forward/ahead/on78.experts/researchers79.steps/ways 80.greatest 81.Express 82.sharing 83.Focus/Concentrate84.feeling/mood/sense 85.these/those。
