Beijing is a wonderful city with many great things to do and see. Iwent to the National Center for the Performing Arts to see a famous musical. It was a wonderful show. And I visited the Bird’s Nest and the Water Cube, two important Venues of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games. I also went to the Tian’anmen square, the Forbidden City, the Temple of Heaven, Peking University, and the Summer Palace. But the most exciting thingI did there was visiting the Great Wall – the view was breathtaking!2.Yes, I have been to London. I loved it. The museums are wonderful, especially the BritishMuseum, which was established in 1753 and is one of the largest and most comprehensive museums in the world. I also enjoyed riding in the London Eye, a giant observation wheel on the South Bank of the River Thames. /No, I haven’t been to London. If I have a chance to go to London, I would like to see places I have heard so much about , such as Tower ridge, Tower of London, Buckingham Palace, Big Ben, and Westminster Abbey.

I spent a few days at a hotel in Alice Springs and went to Ayers Rock and … Well, anyway, one day, I went out for a walk… in the outback. It was a lovely day so I walked and walked… and then I realized I didn’t really know where I was. I was a bit stupid, really… because I decided to go further… I guess I thought I’d find the way back. Um…anyway, after that I heard some dogs. First I heard them barking, and then I saw them… There was a group – maybe five or six dogs, wild dogs, coming towards me. I felt really frightened, but I remembered some advice I, I, er… um, I …I read in my guidebook: Don’t move, and don’t look at the dogs. So I froze, like a statue… I didn’t move… and I looked at a tree, not at the dogs, and didn’t move my eyes. The dogs were all around me, jumping and barking… I thought they were going to bite me. Then one dog did bite my arm, just a little, but still I didn't move. In the end, after about 20 minutes, the dogs went away. I stayed there for a few more minutes and then luckily found my way back to the hotel.

I loved basketball team playing and I especially wanted to see Yao Ming playing. First, we tried to buy tickets online, but all tickets for basketball games had been sold out. Of course, I was very disappointed. Then we went to the stadium to see if someone would be selling extra tickets. After we waited for hours, we became hopeless. But just when we were about to leave, a man came to us and said he had an extra ticket because his friend couldn't make it due to an emergency. We were overjoyed. Immediately, my dad bought the ticket, and told me to rush in – he would wait outside. Finally, I was able to watch the game between the Chinese team and the German team. I enjoyed the game greatly and I was excited when China won. The best thing was that I saw Yao Ming. What a wonderful experience. ViewingBefore you view1Reference answers1.Yes, I have been to a wedding. It was the wedding of my best friend’s sister. I enjoyed it verymuch because there was a lot of delicious food and I met a lot of friends there.2.Yes, I do. First, there is the ritual of bowing at traditional Chinese weddings. The bride andthe groom bow to show their respect first to Heaven and Earth, then to their parents, and finally to each other. Second, there is always a huge wedding banquet. Family members and friends are invited to the wedding banquet. A huge amount of food is served along with liquor and wine. Third, the red color is used to create a happy atmosphere. Colors play a significant role in Chinese culture, both then and now. red is the traditional wedding color as it signifies joy, love, and prosperity. The color is dominant throughout the wedding ceremony: The bride wears red clothes, guests give money in red envelopes, and there are red decorations everywhere at the wedding.3.I know almost nothing about Greek weddings, but I know there is a movie called My Big FatGreek Wedding. From the name, I can assume there must be a lot of food and a lot of people at the wedding.2Reference answersFrancesco is an architect and historian. He visits the island of Crete and goes to a local wedding. While you viewScriptsF=Francesco; M1=Mamas; M2: MariaF: Kalimera. Kalimera. Er, can you show me around Crete?M1: Yes.F: This is the biggest Greek island of all, so I’ve got a local guide for the next two days.M1: Francesco, do you want to see a Cretan wedding?F: Oh, great! Traditional Cretan weddings can be incredible. Preparations often last days. Mamas is taking me to meet the bride, Maria Skula.F: Kalimera, Francesco.M2: Welcome! Come in.F: Congratulations!M2: Thank you.F: Are you a little nervous?M2: A little.F: All the women are helping prepare for the wedding feast. They’re making decorations in dough for a special wedding bread. How many guests for your wedding?M2: Er, 1,500 abut (about 1,500).F: Mmma mia, it’s a lot! Mamma mia. The whoel of Maria’s village has turned out to see her get married. The bride arrives with her father. She’s gorgeous. This is the nervous bridegroom, Jorgos. In a few minutes he and Maria will be man and wife.M2: I do!F: And now we go to party. It’s certainly the largest wedding reception I’ve ever been to. At Cretan weddings, guests give money as gifts. And now the food is served. He meat of 150 sheep… and a whole lot more. Maria and Jorgos’ first dance as man and wife includes all the close family. I’m destroyed! Ah, really.3Answers1.Preparations for traditional Cretan weddings often last for several days.2.T3.The bride arrives with her father.4.T5.Maria and Jorgos’ first dance as man and wife includes all the close family.4Reference answers1.Crete is the biggest island in Greece.2.She is a little nervous.3.All the women in village are helping prepare the wedding feast.4.About 1,500 people.5.They give money as gifts.6.There is so much to see, do and eat at the wedding. Francesco is overwhelmed by all that. After you view5Reference answers1.I really like the Greek wedding style. I like the music and the dance very much. I can tell howexcited people are and how much they enjoy the occasion. At a Greek wedding people can gather together with their family, relatives, and friends, and fully enjoy music, dance, food and drink. / Not really. I don’t particularly like big noisy weddings. I prefer a smaller and quieter wedding. I would rather just invite my family and a few close friends to my wedding. 2.I definitely like the modern Chinese wedding most because it not only has some traditionalelements such as the red color, traditional wedding outfits, and the ritual of bowing, but also contains Western elements, including champagne, wedding rings, and a wedding cake. /I actually prefer not to have a wedding ceremony. I would like to have a honeymoon instead.Getting married should only involve two people. I hope I can enjoy the happiness without being disturbed by others. Another important reason why I want to skip the wedding is that preparing for a wedding is such a huge, exhausting, and time-consuming project. I don’t want anyone to get into this kind of trouble.Speaking for communicationRole-playScripts1A: Hello.B: Hi, Sean. It’s Debbie.A: Hi, Debbie. What’s up?B: Is Kevin there?A: No, he’s not.

We interviewed 12 people and asked them whether they have ever dived in the sea, done bungee jumping, or ridden on a roller-coaster. And we also asked them if they have, how they felt, and if they haven’t, whether they would like to try any of the activities.Here are our findings. Four of the interviewees have dived in the sea, and all of them regarded it as a wonderful experience. (Paly the recording about what the interviewees say about their diving in the sea, if necessary.) Only two of them have done bungee jumping; one found it very exciting while the other thought it too scary. (Paly the recording about what the interviewees say about their bungee jumping, if necessary.) Seven interviewees have ridden a roller-coaster; four of them enjoyed it while the other there felt it very scary and uncomfortable. ((Paly the recording about what the interviewees say about their riding a roller-coaster, if necessary.) Surprisingly, oneperson reports that he hasn't done any of the three activities!As to whether they would like to try any of the activities they haven’t done before, most of the m say they would love to try diving in the sea or riding a roller-coaster, but only two people say they would try bungee jumping. The person who hasn’t tried any o the activities says he will never try any of them because they all sound very dangerous. (Paly the recording about whether they would like to try these activities, if necessary.)It was very interesting to hear people talk about their unusual experiences. We hope that they will continue to have more special and exciting experiences in the future.Further practice in listeningShort conversationsScriptsConversation 1W: How I wish you had gone to the concert with me last night.

Even societies that are very rational and scientific are sometimes a little bit superstitious. For example, the United States is a country that is very advanced in science and technology. But American people sometimes believe in superstitions. Americans consider “13” an unlucky number. Some people in the United States also believe that if Friday falls on the 13th day of the month, they will have bad luck.Some Americans believe they will have bad luck if they walk under a ladder. Even if people say they are not superstitious, they will often avoid walking under a ladder. Often people consider it unlucky to break a mirror. If a person breaks a mirror, he or she will have seven years of bad luck. Americans also think they will have bad luck I fa black cat crosses their path. A long time ago, people believed that black cats were actually witches.However, some things are thought to bring good luck. For instance, some Americans believe if they dream about a white cat, or step on their own shadow, or put a mirror just across the door, they will have god luck. Or if they catch a falling leaf on the first day of autumn, they will have good luck all winter. Others think if they low out all the candles on their birthday cake in one blow, they will get whatever they want.

It also caused the worst landslides in US history since 1927.After the earthquake, some people said that they would never visit Yellowstone, because they were afraid they would be 7)caught in such a disaster caused by the earthquake.

大学英语课程（外教社版）一课一练试卷（精读-一级）Unit 5答案Part I Writing (30 minutes)How to be a successful writerSome people believe that a writer is born but not taught. A writer should have certain gift or talent since his or her childhood. People can not be taught in school or college to be a good writer.However, other people have the opinion that being a writer doesn’t require much talent or gift. What is required is to put your heart on it and work hard toward it. You should write with honesty and emotion, in a whole-hearted way about what you truly believe instead of making up story to cheat the readers.As far as writing is concerned, I believe that writing right does require a little talent and certain knowledge of writing. Besides, diligence and devotion are dispensable part of being a good writer.Part II Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning) (15 minutes)1-7 CDAABCD8. main attraction9. wandering10. expensivePart III Listening Comprehension (30 minutes)11-15 CABBC 16-21BAB CBC22. matter 23.check 24.brown 25.trafficPart IV Reading Comprehension (Reading in Depth) (25 minutes)26-35 DCBAE, FGHOL36-45 CBBCD DACADPart V Cloze (15 minutes)46-55.

I put on the trousers I had on yesterday and take a shirt out of the wardrobe----it doesn’t matter which one as long as it’s ironed. I find the jacket that goes with the trousers, look down and check that my socks match and t hat’s it. Nearly all my clothes are either green or brown because I’ve been told that they are the only colors that suit me. So I never really have to worry about what I go with.

I spent a few days at a hotel in Alice Springs and went to Ayers Rock and ... Well, anyway, one day, I went out for a walk... in the outback. It was a lovely day so I walked and walked... and then I realized I didn’t really know where I was. I was a bit stupid, really... because I decided to go further (I)guess I thought I’d find the way back. Um…anyway, after that I heard some dogs. First I heard them barking, and then I saw them… There was a group – maybe five or six dogs, wild dogs, coming towards me. I felt really frightened, but I remembered some advice I, I, er… um, I …I read in my guidebook: Don’t move, and don’t look at the dogs. So I froze, like a statue… I didn’t move… and I looked at a tree, not at the dogs, and didn’t move my eyes. The dogs were all around me, jumping and barking… I thought they were going to bite me. Then one dog did bite my arm, just a little, but still I didn't move. In the end, after about 20 minutes, the dogs went away. I stayed there for a few more minutes and then luckily found my way back to the hotel.

I loved basketball team playing and I especially wanted to see Yao Ming playing. First, we tried to buy tickets online, but all tickets for basketball games had been sold out. Of course, I was very disappointed. Then we went to the stadium to see if someone would be selling extra tickets. After we waited for hours, we became hopeless. But just when we were about to leave, a man came to us and said he had an extra ticket because his friend couldn't make it due to an emergency. We were overjoyed. Immediately, my dad bought the ticket, and told me to rush in – he would wait outside. Finally, I was able to watch the game between the Chinese team and the German team. I enjoyed the game greatly and I was excited when China won. The best thing was that I saw Yao Ming. What a wonderful experience.ViewingBefore you view1Reference answers1.Yes, I have been to a wedding. It was the wedding of my best friend’s sister. I enjoyedit very much because there was a lot of delicious food and I met a lot of friends there.2.Yes, I do. First, there is the ritual of bowing at traditional Chinese weddings. The brideand the groom bow to show their respect first to Heaven and Earth, then to their parents, and finally to each other. Second, there is always a huge wedding banquet.Family members and friends are invited to the wedding banquet. A huge amount of food is served along with liquor and wine. Third, the red color is used to create a happy atmosphere. Colors play a significant role in Chinese culture, both then and now. red is the traditional wedding color as it signifies joy, love, and prosperity. The color is dominant throughout the wedding ceremony: The bride wears red clothes, guests give money in red envelopes, and there are red decorations everywhere at the wedding.3.I know almost nothing about Greek weddings, but I know there is a movie called MyBig Fat Greek Wedding. From the name, I can assume there must be a lot of food anda lot of people at the wedding.2Reference answersFrancesco is an architect and historian.

I cantell how excited people are and how much they enjoy the occasion. At a Greek wedding people can gather together with their family, relatives, and friends, and fully enjoy music, dance, food and drink. / Not really. I don’t particularly like big noisy weddings. I prefer a smaller and quieter wedding. I would rather just invite my family and a few close friends to my wedding.2.I definitely like the modern Chinese wedding most because it not only has sometraditional elements such as the red color, traditional wedding outfits, and the ritual of bowing, but also contains Western elements, including champagne, wedding rings, and a wedding cake. /I actually prefer not to have a wedding ceremony. I would like to have a honeymoon instead. Getting married should only involve two people. I hope I can enjoy the happiness without being disturbed by others. Another important reason why I want to skip the wedding is that preparing for a wedding is such a huge, exhausting, and time-consuming project. I don’t want anyone to get into this kind of trouble.Speaking for communicationRole-playScripts1A: Hello.B: Hi, Sean. It’s Debbie.A: Hi, Debbie. What’s up?B: Is Kevin there?A: No, he’s not.

We interviewed 12 people and asked them whether they have ever dived in the sea, done bungee jumping, or ridden on a roller-coaster. And we also asked them if they have, how they felt, and if they haven’t, whether they would like to try any of the activities.Here are our findings. Four of the interviewees have dived in the sea, and all of them regarded it as a wonderful experience. (Paly the recording about what the interviewees say about their diving in the sea, if necessary.) Only two of them have done bungee jumping; one found it very exciting while the other thought it too scary. (Paly the recording about what the interviewees say about their bungee jumping, if necessary.) Seven interviewees have ridden a roller-coaster; four of them enjoyed it while the other there felt it very scary and uncomfortable. ((Paly the recording about what theinterviewees say about their riding a roller-coaster, if necessary.) Surprisingly, one person reports that he hasn't done any of the three activities!As to whether they would like to try any of the activities they haven’t done before, most of the m say they would love to try diving in the sea or riding a roller-coaster, but only two people say they would try bungee jumping. The person who hasn’t tried any o the activities says he will never try any of them because they all sound very dangerous. (Paly the recording about whether they would like to try these activities, if necessary.)It was very interesting to hear people talk about their unusual experiences. We hope that they will continue to have more special and exciting experiences in the future.Further practice in listeningShort conversationsScriptsConversation 1W: How I wish you had gone to the concert with me last night.

Key to Model Test (1) Band ThreePart I. WritingSample Writing:On Lifelong LearningWith the rapid development of modern society, lifelong learning has been increasingly important.

I spent a few days at a hotel in Alice Springs and went to Ayers Rock and … Well, anyway, one day, I went out for a walk… in the outback. It was a lovely day so I walked and walked… and then I realized I didn’t really know where I was. I was a bit stupid, really… because I decided to go further… I guess I thought I’d find the way back. Um…anyway, after that I heard some dogs. First I heard them barking, and then I saw them…There was a group – maybe five or six dogs, wild dogs, coming towards me. I felt really frightened, but I remembered some advice I, I, er… um, I …I read in my guidebook: Don’t move, and don’t look at the dogs. So I froze, like a statue… I didn’t move… and I looked at a tree, not at the dogs, and didn’t move my eyes. The dogs were all around me, jumping and barking… I thought they were going to bite me. Then one dog did bite my arm, just a little, but still I didn't move. In theend, after about 20 minutes, the dogs went away. I stayed there for a few more minutes and then luckily found my way back to the hotel.

I loved basketball team playing and I especially wanted to see Yao Ming playing. First, we tried to buy tickets online, but all tickets for basketball games had been sold out. Of course, I was very disappointed. Then we went to the stadium to see if someone would be selling extra tickets. After we waited for hours, we became hopeless. But just when we were about to leave, a man came to us and said he had an extra ticket because his friend couldn't make it due to an emergency. We were overjoyed. Immediately, my dad bought the ticket, and told me to rush in – he would wait outside. Finally, I was able to watch the game between the Chinese team and the German team. I enjoyed the game greatly and I was excited when China won. The best thing was that I saw Yao Ming. What a wonderful experience.ViewingBefore you view1Reference answers1.Yes, I have been to a wedding. It was the wedding of my best friend’s sister. I enjoyed it verymuch because there was a lot of delicious food and I met a lot of friends there.2.Yes, I do. First, there is the ritual of bowing at traditional Chinese weddings.

Colors play a significant role in Chinese culture, both then and now. red is the traditional wedding color as it signifies joy, love, and prosperity. The color is dominant throughout the wedding ceremony: The bride wears red clothes, guests give money in red envelopes, and there are reddecorations everywhere at the wedding.3.I know almost nothing about Greek weddings, but I know there is a movie called My Big FatGreek Wedding.

I would rather just invite my family and a few close friends to my wedding.2.I definitely like the modern Chinese wedding most because it not only has some traditionalelements such as the red color, traditional wedding outfits, and the ritual of bowing, but also contains Western elements, including champagne, wedding rings, and a wedding cake. /I actually prefer not to have a wedding ceremony. I would like to have a honeymoon instead.Getting married should only involve two people. I hope I can enjoy the happiness without being disturbed by others. Another important reason why I want to skip the wedding is that preparing for a wedding is such a huge, exhausting, and time-consuming project. I don’t want anyone to get into this kind of trouble.Speaking for communicationRole-playScripts1A: Hello.B: Hi, Sean. It’s Debbie.A: Hi, Debbie. What’s up?B: Is Kevin there?A: No, he’s not.

We interviewed 12 people and asked them whether they have ever dived in the sea, done bungee jumping, or ridden on a roller-coaster. And we also asked them if they have, how they felt, and if they haven’t, whether they would like to try any of the activities.Here are our findings. Four of the interviewees have dived in the sea, and all of them regarded it as a wonderful experience. (Paly the recording about what the interviewees say about their diving in the sea, if necessary.) Only two of them have done bungee jumping; one found it very exciting while the other thought it too scary. (Paly the recording about what the interviewees sayabout their bungee jumping, if necessary.) Seven interviewees have ridden a roller-coaster; four of them enjoyed it while the other there felt it very scary and uncomfortable. ((Paly the recording about what the interviewees say about their riding a roller-coaster, if necessary.) Surprisingly, one person reports that he hasn't done any of the three activities!As to whether they would like to try any of the activities they haven’t done before, most of the m say they would love to try diving in the sea or riding a roller-coaster, but only two people say they would try bungee jumping. The person who hasn’t tried any o the activities says he will never try any of them because they all sound very dangerous. (Paly the recording about whether they would like to try these activities, if necessary.)It was very interesting to hear people talk about their unusual experiences. We hope that they will continue to have more special and exciting experiences in the future.Further practice in listeningShort conversationsScriptsConversation 1W: How I wish you had gone to the concert with me last night.

Even if people say they are not superstitious, they will often avoid walking under a ladder. Often people consider it unlucky to break a mirror. If a person breaks a mirror, he or she will have seven years of bad luck. Americans also think they will have bad luck I fa black cat crosses their path. A long time ago, people believed that black cats were actually witches.However, some things are thought to bring good luck.

Or if they catch a falling leaf on the first day of autumn, they will have good luck all winter.

We interviewed 12 people and asked them whether they have ever dived in the sea, done bungee jumping, or ridden on a roller-coaster. And we also asked them if they have, how they felt, and if they haven’t, whether they would like to try any of the activities.Here are our findings. Four of the interviewees have dived in the sea, and all of them regarded it as a wonderful experience. (Paly the recording about what the interviewees say about their diving in the sea, if necessary.) Only two of them have done bungee jumping; one found it very exciting while the other thought it too scary. (Paly the recording about what the interviewees say abouttheir bungee jumping, if necessary.) Seven interviewees have ridden a roller-coaster; four of them enjoyed it while the other there felt it very scary and uncomfortable. ((Paly the recording about what the interviewees say about their riding a roller-coaster, if necessary.) Surprisingly, one person reports that he hasn't done any of the three activities!As to whether they would like to try any of the activities they haven’t done before, most of the m say they would love to try diving in the sea or riding a roller-coaster, but only two people say they would try bungee jumping. The person who hasn’t tried any o the activities says he will never try any of them because they all sound very dangerous. (Paly the recording about whether they would like to try these activities, if necessary.)It was very interesting to hear people talk about their unusual experiences. We hope that they will continue to have more special and exciting experiences in the future.Further practice in listeningShort conversationsScriptsConversation 1W: How I wish you had gone to the concert with me last night.

Even societies that are very rational and scientific are sometimes a little bit superstitious. For example, the United States is a country that is very advanced in science and technology. But American people sometimes believe in superstitions. Americans consider “13” an unlucky number. Some people in the United States also believe that if Friday falls on the 13th day of the month, they will have bad luck.Some Americans believe they will have bad luck if they walk under a ladder. Even if people saythey are not superstitious, they will often avoid walking under a ladder. Often people consider it unlucky to break a mirror. If a person breaks a mirror, he or she will have seven years of bad luck. Americans also think they will have bad luck I fa black cat crosses their path. A long time ago, people believed that black cats were actually witches.However, some things are thought to bring good luck. For instance, some Americans believe if they dream about a white cat, or step on their own shadow, or put a mirror just across the door, they will have god luck. Or if they catch a falling leaf on the first day of autumn, they will have good luck all winter. Others think if they low out all the candles on their birthday cake in one blow, they will get whatever they want. And some people think they will have good luck if they find a penny on the ground and pick it up.Q1: What is the passage mainly about?Q2: According to the passage, what is considered as bad luck?Q3: Why is it considered bad luck to see a black cat crossing one’s path?Q4: according to the passage, what will bring people good luck?Answers1C 2A 3B 4CPassage 2Scripts and answersSome parts of the earth are more likely to have earthquakes than other parts. This is usually true of 1) mountainous areas because there the thickness of rocks is not even.It is easy to understand why people are so 2)frightened by earthquakes. People used to believe that when an earthquake 3)took place, the ground opened, swallowed great numbers of people, and then it closed. It was also thought that those people would 4)vanish forever. But now we know this is not what really happens.What we need to fear most is the effects of a serious earthquake, including fires, floods, and landslides. A powerful earthquake 5)occurred in Yellowstone National Park on August 17, 1959. The earthquake was 6)massive and very strong. It also caused the worst landslides in US history since 1927.After the earthquake, some people said that they would never visit Yellowstone, because they were afraid they would be 7)caught in such a disaster caused by the earthquake. This is actually a foolish idea. Such a fear would 8)keep us away from beautiful mountains for the rest of our lives. Even though earthquakes happen every day such a powerful earthquake like the Yellowstone one does not happen frequently at all. We should feel 9)grateful that very few of us will suffer such a bad natural disaster. Besides, if we know 10)in advance and make carful preparations, the loss of lives could be avoided.。
