课时作业(三十八)Ⅰ.阅读理解A few weeks ago when I got closer to the classroom I heard laughter and drumming -my students obviously thought they had a free period! As I entered the classroom,the drumming stopped.“Good morning,Miss,” they tried to sound happy to see me;their faces were delighted but I knew this was not for me.“What are you all doing?” “Nothing,Miss.” Guilty eyes stared back at me.They pulled out books and sat and waited,but that_thing I had seen in their faces,that thing I had so hoped to bring with my teaching,that thing was slipping away now as they got ready for class.“Nothing? You were doing something.What?”There was quiet and I realized they thought I was angry.Eventually one of them said,“Columbus Day,Miss.You know,the day Columbus reached Trinidad with his ships.We are acting the Columbus Day play.”“Wait,you mean the same Columbus in the history? Christopher Columbus?”“Yes,Miss.”“But...well,we did that chapter in the book.You didn't answer my questions.”I felt my heart pounding hard.“Open the book,come,quick,” I was excited now.“Okay,so who is taking part in the play? Come to the front.Let's act out this play.”“Miss,you said to open the book.We're not going to read?”“I will read,you will act and you will drum and you will see how the chapter and the play work together.”The students stared at me as if I were crazy.“Miss,for real?”“Yes,for real!”Had I hit upon something here? There was something I hadn't seen before -these faces-excited,smiling,alive.These faces were what I dreamed of! One week later I gave the students the same questions on Columbus that few had passed the first time and this time more than half the class passed!From this experience,I came to recognize that books are enough for some students,but for others life,as they know,has little to do with what's in the book unless they see a corelation.1.What were the students doing when the author got closer to the classroom?A.They were having a break.B.They were acting a play.C.They were throwing a party.D.They were reading history books.2.What does “that thing” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A.Guilt and regrets.B.Disappointment.C.Interest and passion.D.Satisfaction.3.What did the author ask the students to do in the class?A.Perform a play about Columbus.B.Retell the story of Columbus Day.C.Read one chapter in the book aloud.D.Answer questions based on the book.4.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A.Think Outside the BookB.An Unforgettable ExperienceC.Education-the Key to IgnoranceD.A Special Celebration of Columbus Day答案:[解题导语]学生们的学习不仅仅在于课本,通过活动把生活与书本联系起来或许会让孩子们表达出自己的兴趣和热情,展露发自内心的笑容.1.B 解析:细节理解题.根据文章第三段最后一句We are acting the Columbus Day play.可知,他们正在表演.故选B项.2.C 解析:词义猜测题.根据第二段的...but that thing I had seen in their faces, that thing I had so hoped to bring with my teaching, that thing was slipping away now as they got ready for class.和第一段的their faces were delighted but I knew this was not for me.可知,学生们在老师不在的时候会笑得开心,而上课时是没有的;同时文章第九段提到,老师在宣布让大家表演的时候,学生们的脸上又露出了兴奋和充满活力的微笑,由此可推断that thing指的是“由内而发的兴趣和热情”.故选C项.3.A 解析:细节理解题.根据第六段中的Come to the front. Let's act out this play.可知,老师让学生们表演有关哥伦布的戏剧.故选A项.4.A 解析:主旨大意题.通读全文可知,作者在某节课上没有讲书本中的内容,而是让学生们表演,却收到了意想不到的效果;且根据文章最后一句...I came to recognize that books are enough for some students, but for others life, as they know, has little to do with what's in the book unless they see a corelation.可知,本文强调书本之外的生活和思考.故选A项.B项太过宽泛;C、D两项偏离主题.Ⅱ.完形填空[2017·西北工业大学附中适应性训练]It was the first morning of the New Year and the weather was very cold.I have always been an early bird and my morning walks have been the __1__ for the last 7 years,so I put on my shoes to__2__for my first walk of the New Year.There was complete __3__ outside.Litter could be seen everywhere.It seemed that everyone had an allnight __4__.It was too cold to __5__anyone to be awake to clear all the walkways at 5 in the morning.I was __6__ to walk on the dirty walkways and decided to go back home.I was about to leave__7__ I saw Sam cleaning the garden.He is an employee of our society association and is __8__to take care of the walkways and the garden.I walked up to Sam as it was a(an)__9__ to see him there cleaning at this time.He saw me and politely__10__ me,“Happy New Year! ”“How come you are here and doing all this on the very first day of a new year?”I asked.Sam answered__11__,“It is the first day of the year so they should feel good and special.For me,today is like any other __12__day and my job starts with the__13__.”It was good to see someone so__14__at heart.Like other staff members,Sam could have taken a day __15__,but he woke up early and came for all of us.I suddenly realized life does not __16__ when the clock strikes twelve at midnight and a New Year begins.We __17__ all night,the surround is dirty.Life goes on and others need to __18__ up early and clear the garbage.Isn't the very next morning a new day of a New Year for all those who clear our garbage?

Her stories have appeared in The Ne w Yorker, The Atlantic Monthly, and other publications, and her collections have been translated into thirteen languages.The main character is Sophia Kovalevsky, a great Russianmathematician, writer and advocator (拥护者) of women's rights inthe late nineteenth century. After visiting her lover MaxsimKovalevsky in Riviera, she travels in Europe, ending up in Sweden,where she teaches at the only university in Europe willing to employa female mathematician. The book writes about her journey fromRiviera to Sweden.The story tells the typical struggle of an intellectual woman to achieve success and happiness. However, when she is going to die, Sophia says “too much happiness”. I think it's irony. As reading the story, she has too many mental problems. First, as a woman mathematician, she was born at a wrong time. She was married to Vladimir Kovalevsky without love, called “a white marriage”. She explained that “not a young Russian woman who wa s unmarried could leave the country”. She sacrificed her marriage to seek her career.Furthermore, when she sees a man who looks like Maxsim in the station, she says to herself, “Of course, it would not be Maxsim, what could he be doing in Paris?”She doesn't want to face the_fact because she doesn't want to lose her hope. She believes they will marry in spring. And in her letter to Julia she sys, “It is to be happiness after all, happiness after all. Happiness.” She is cheating herself. In fact, the man do es not want to marry her, and the happiness she expected doesn't take place at all.Finally, I conclude that the end must be a tragedy (悲剧). From the very first pages the atmosphere is gloomy and threatening. “One of us will die this year.” “Because we havegone walking in a graveyard (墓地) on the first day of the New Year.”and “a black c at across their path” all reflect it will be a bad ending. Not because she has some problems with her lung, but because her life does not bring her happiness with some disharmonious things happening.A.Sophia was born at a wrong time and was mentally ill.B.Women were not fairly treated in Europe in Sophia's time.C.Sophia loved travelling around Europe to meet different people.D.Unmarried women were forbidden to learn mathematics at that time.解析:选B推理判断题。

But his fame came late in his life.He was born in San Francisco, California in 1874. He lived in California during his early childhood. He was named after the chief Southern general in America's Civil War. The general's name was Robert Edward Lee. The poet was named Robert Lee Frost,because his father wanted to honor the general.Someone once asked another American writer, Ernest Hemingway, how to become a writer. The best thing, he said, was to have an unhappy childhood. If this is true, Robert Frost's childhood was unhappy enough to make him a very good writer. Robert Frost's father was a reporter who wanted to be a politician. He often drank too much alcohol and became angry. Robert was the victim of his anger.Robert Frost finished high school in 1891. After high school, Robert's grandfather offered to pay his costs at Dartmouth College. But Robert left the school after a few months. He did not like it. He spent the next few years working at different jobs. At one time, he worked in a factory. Later, he repaired shoes. He was a teacher. He was a reporter. Always, he wrote poetry.Robert Frost attended Harvard University for two years. After that, he returned to the many jobs he held before. For a while, Frost tried to take care of a farm in the state of New Hampshire. He was not a successful farmer. And he continued to write poetry. He said that until 1930, he earned only about ten dollars a year from writing.In 1912, he decided to try to make a new start. He took his family to Britain. The cost of living was low. In Britain, Frost found a publisher for his first book of poems. The book was called A Boy's Will. When it appeared in 1913, Frost receivedhigh praise from British readers. Praise was something he had not received in his own country.Ezra Pound, another American poet living in Britain, read the poems and liked them very much. He wrote a magazine article about Frost. He also helped get Frost's second book of poems published in America. That book was called North of Boston.1.The followings are writers EXCEPT________.A.Robert Edward LeeB.Robert Lee FrostC.Ernest HemingwayD.Ezra Pound2.In which order did the following things happen to Frost?a.He attended Dartmouth College.b.He lived in California.c.He moved to Britain.d.He earned about ten dollars a year from writing.e.He was thought highly of by British readers.A.a,b,c,d,e B.b,a,c,e,dC.a,b,c,e,d D.b,a,c,d,e3.The passage wrote about Hemingway in order to show that________.A.he had great influence on Frost's poetry and lifeB.Frost's poetry style was the same as Hemingway'sC.Frost was unhappy because he was the victim of his fatherD.Frost could become a great poet due to his unhappychildhood4.What can we learn from the passage?A.Once Frost's first book was published he gained great praise in his country.B.After leaving Harvard University, he began to learn to write poetry.C.Frost was found to have a gift in poetry while he studied in high school.D.Robert Frost's father was angry and drank a lot because he didn't realize his dream.5.What's the passage mainly about?A.Robert Frost's unhappy childhood.B.Robert Frost's first and second book.C.Robert Frost's family and jobs.D.Robert Frost's life and poetry.BArthur Miller(1915-2005) is universally recognized as one of the greatest dramatists of the 20th ler's father had moved to the USA from AustriaHun gary,drawn like so many others by the “Great American Dream”.However,he experienced severe financial hardship when his family business was ruined in the Great Depression of the early 1930s.Miller's most famous play,Death of a Salesman,is a powerful attack on the American system,with its aggressive way of doing business and its insistence on money and social status as indicators of worth.In Willy Loman,the hero of the play,we see a man who has got into trouble with this system.Willy is “burnt out” and in the cruel world of business there is no room for sentiment:if he can't do the work,then he is no good to his employer,the Wagner Company,and he must go.Willy is painfully aware of this,and at a loss as to what to do with his lack of success.He refuses to face the fact that he has failed and kills himself in the end.When it was first staged in 1949,the play was greeted with enthusiastic reviews,and it won the Tony Award for Best Play,the New York Drama Critics' Circle Award,and the Pulitzer Prize for Drama.It was the first play to win all three of these major awards.Miller died of heart failure at his home in Roxbury,Connecticut,on the evening of February 10,2005,the 56th anniversary of the first performance of Death of a Salesman on Broadway.6.Why did Arthur Miller's father move to the USA?A.He suffered from severe hunger in his home country.B.He was attracted by the “Great American Dream.”C.He hoped to make his son a dramatist.D.His family business failed.7.The play Death of a Salesman________.A.exposes the cruelty of the American business worldB.discusses the ways to get promoted in a companyC.talks about the business career of Arthur MillerD.focuses on the skills in doing business8.What can we learn about Willy Loman?A.He treats his employer badly.B.He runs the Wagner Company.C.He is a victim of the American system.D.He is regarded as a hero by his colleagues.9.After it was first staged,Death of a Salesman________.

How do they communicate with each other without using language? Well,different species use different types of communication.Sounds are one of the most common types of communication in animals and the majority of the species use them as the medium to convey messages.Bats usually follow sound waves to communicate.All the birds communicate through their chirping(吱喳) and use ultrasound waves.Mammals,generally,make use of sounds to give calls to other members of their community.Whales are the perfect users of sound waves.They have a whale song,which they repeat after regular intervals.In addition to sounds,facial expressions are also used by animals to communicate.For example,when dogs are angry,they show their teeth barking and raise their ears.On the other hand,when they’re frightened,they pull their ears behind with the mouth open.For another example,when the parent bird brings food for the offspring,the “begging expression” can be observed on its face.Next,gestures and body movements are also common in animals.Honey bees are the most enthusiastic creatures on the earth because they dance to communicate.Some bees dance in the hive so that other bees get signals about the location of the honey comb.In addition,a deer waves its tail to warn others of some danger coming closer.Gorillas stick their tongue out to express anger.Moreover,many animals communicate with each other through smell.They release pheromones(信息素) to convey messages to other animals.Wolves,deer and insects generally,use this type of communication.Even amoebas(变形虫) need to communicate and does it by chemical discharge.The animals use this type of communication to attract others for reproduction.Therefore,communication is so important that it’suseful in the process of reproduction.Besides the above,animals like chimpanzees express feeling by touching each others’ hands.A newcomer puts its hand in the mouth of th e head monkey to confirm its entry in their community.The head monkey gives the visitor the assurance of safety and goodwill.They even give hugs and kisses to express love.And cats snuggle(偎依) to show affection.36.What is the best title for the passage?A.How do animals communicate without any language?B.How does animals’ communication differ from human communication?C.Why can animals communicate with each other without any language?D.What are the effects of communication without language on animals’ li fe?37.When a dog shows its teeth and raises its ear while barking,it must be ________.A.conveying its fearB.warning its owner of some dangerC.expressing its angerD.begging its owner for something38.It is known from the passage that ____________.A.a gorilla sometimes sticks its tongue out when it’s angryB.all animals use their smell for reproductionC.a deer waves its tails once it senses dangerD.a hungry bird baby always shows a begging expression39.According to the passage,____________.A.bats are good at using sound wave than birdsB.both monkeys and cats like to show their love by touchingC.almost all animals can communicate by using facial expressionD.bees are the animals that are the best at dancing40.Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage?(①=Paragraph 1;②=Paragraph 2;③=Paragraph 3;④=Paragraph 4;⑤=Paragraph 5;⑥=Paragraph 6)课时作业(二十四)Ⅰ.1.C考查固定搭配would rather…than…宁愿做……而不愿做……,故此题答案为C。

Look at how popular young writers like Han Han and Guo Jingming are.Gao Can is a writer. Actually, the 13yearold is the youngest member of the Association(协会) of Writers of Shaanxi.So far, the eighth grader in the High School Affiliated to Xi'an Jiaotong University has published eight books. She writes fairy tales, short essays, and most of all, poems.Gao said she began poem writing when she was in primary school. Once her teacher asked the class to write a c omposition called “If I were”,Gao had an idea—“why not make it a poem?” Since then, she has written hundreds of poems and published three books of them.“I don't have too much life experience,” said Gao. “I write about nature, about things I feel inside an d my spiritual world.”However, teenagers these days rarely write poems, or read them. Exams want “any style but poetry”.But like Gao, there are those who still read and write poems. Hu Jingzhi is one of them. The 14yearold boy said that poems inspire h im.“But it's annoying that I can't find many poem collections in nearby bookstores.” he said.Gao agreed with Hu. She said that today's bookstores were filled with books on “how to make money quickly” or “how to give a successful speech”.“Poems won't tea ch you how to make money,” said Gao. “But the beautiful words clear your mind and stimulate your imagination.”“Writing poems is not at all difficult. Just express yourself. And read poems—for their beautiful style...and for the pure things in life.”1.The passage is mainly about________.A.some popular young writersB.how to write poems wellC.a young writer—Gao CanD.the reason why teenagers rarely write poems2.According to the passage, Gao Can probably likes writing________best.A.novels B.fairy talesC.short essays D.poems3.Which of the following statements is NOT true?A.Gao Can is a member of the Association of Writers of Shaanxi.B.She is a middle school student.C.At the age of 13, she began to write poems.D.She thinks writing poems is very easy.4.Why are there few poem collections in bookstores now?A.Because nobody likes writing poems.B.Because no teenagers want to read poems.C.Because there is no space for poem collections in bookstores now.D.Because poems won't teach how to make money.5.The underlined word “stimulate” probably means________.A.encourage B.reduceC.discover D.createⅣ.任务型阅读We find that bright children are rarely held back by mixedability teaching. On the contrary, both their knowledge and experience are enriched. We feel that there are many disadvantages in streaming(把……按能力分班) pupils. It does not take into account the fact that children develop at different rates. It can have a bad effect on both the bright and the notsobright child. After all, it can be quite discouraging to be at the bottom of the top grade! Besides,it is rather unreal to grade people just according to their intellectual ability. This is only one aspect for their total personality.We are concerned to develop the abilities of all our pupils to the full, not just their academic ability. We also value personal qualities and social skills, and we find that mixedability teaching contributes to all these aspects of learning.In our classrooms, we work in various ways. The pupils often work in groups. This gives them the opportunity to learn to cooperate, to share,and to developleadership skills. They also learn how to cope with personal problems as well as learning how to think, to make decisions, to analyze and evaluate, and to communicate effectively. The pupils learn from each other as well as from the teacher.Sometimes the pupils work in pairs;sometimes they work on individual tasks and assignments, and they can do this at their own speed. They also have some formal class teaching when this is appropriate. We encourage our pupils to use the library,and we teach them the skills they need in order to do this efficiently.

But his fame came late in his life.He was born in San Francisco, California in 1874. He lived in California during his early childhood. He was named after the chief Southern general in America's Civil War. The general's name was Robert Edward Lee. The poet was named Robert Lee Frost,because his father wanted to honor the general.Someone once asked another American writer, Ernest Hemingway, how to become a writer. The best thing, he said, was to have an unhappy childhood. If this is true, Robert Frost's childhood was unhappy enough to make him a very good writer. Robert Frost's father was a reporter who wanted to be a politician. He often drank too much alcohol and became angry. Robert was the victim of his anger.Robert Frost finished high school in 1891. After high school, Robert's grandfather offered to pay his costs at Dartmouth College. But Robert left the school after a few months. He did not like it. He spent the next few years working at different jobs. At one time, he worked in a factory. Later, he repaired shoes. He was a teacher. He was a reporter. Always, he wrote poetry.Robert Frost attended Harvard University for two years. After that, he returned to the many jobs he held before. For a while, Frost tried to take care of a farm in the state of New Hampshire. He was not a successful farmer. And he continued to write poetry. He said that until 1930, he earned only about ten dollars a year from writing.In 1912, he decided to try to make a new start. He took his family to Britain. The cost of living was low. In Britain, Frost found a publisher for his first book of poems. The book was called A Boy's Will. When it appeared in 1913, Frost receivedhigh praise from British readers. Praise was something he had not received in his own country.Ezra Pound, another American poet living in Britain, read the poems and liked them very much. He wrote a magazine article about Frost.
