been abroad.Like most English children I learned French at school.And I had often been to France,so I was used to speaking a foreign language to people who didn’t understand French.But when I went to America I was really looking forward to having a nice easy holiday without any language problems.How wrong I was!The misunderstandings began at the airport.I was looking for a public telephone to give my American friend Danny a call and tell her that I had arrived.A friendly old man saw me looking lost and asked if he could help me.“Yes,”I said,“I want to give my friend a ring.”“Well,that’s nice,”he said.“Are you getting married?But aren’t you a bit young?”“Who’s talking about marriage?”I replied.“I only want to give my friend a ring to tell her I’ve arrived.Can you tell me where there’s a phone box?”“Oh!”he said.“There’s a phone downstairs.”When at last we met,Danny explained the misunderstandings to me.“Don’t worry,”she said to me.“I had so many difficulties at first.There are lots

excitingmilitary event held every year that has been performed for centuries at Horse Guards Parade in Whitehall.[3]This year there were more than 1,100 soldiers taking part in the display of brilliant military on Horse Guards Parade.The route along the Mall was lined by members of the Foot Guards regiments(兵团)of the Household Division-wearing bearskin hats and red short coats.[4]After the Queen took the salute,the royals headed back to Buckingham Palace to gather on the balcony.The Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh also watched one of the biggest flypasts in recent years to mark the 90th anniversary of the RAF(皇家空军).[5]The planes taking part ranged from a 68-year-old Spitfire to the RAF’s newest aircraft,the Typhoon.[6]The Queen’s actual birthday was on 21th April,when she turned 82.[7]The te rm“Trooping the Colour”comes from an old military tradition.Before a battle,colours of flags were carried,or“trooped”,along the rank of soldiers so they could be seen and recognized.In 1748,it was decided that the trooping would also be used to ________.[8]In an interview with the BBC,Prince Charles said Trooping the Colour was a“thrilling and moving occasion”.[9]“It’s_splendidly_British_and_I_hope_it_will_go_on_for_as_long_as_possible_because_I _think_the_world_would_be_a_sadder,duller_and_greyer_place_without_it,”he_said.1.Why does Britain hold

But his ideas did influence others.One was Noah Webster.Webster wrote language books for schools.He believed the United States should have a system of its own language as well as government.Webster published a dictionary of the American language in It established rules for speaking and spelling the wordsused in American English.Webster wrote that all words should be said in the order of the letters that spell them.This is why Americans use the letters“e-r”to end many words instead of the British“r-e.”He spelled the word“center,”for example,“c-e-n-t-e-r,”instead of the British“c-e-n-t-r-e.”Webster’s rule for saying every part of a word made American English easier for foreign settlers to learn.They learned to say“,”for example,the way it is spelled instead of the British“”The different languages of many people who came to the United States also helped make American and British English different.Many of their foreign words and expressions became part of English as Americans speak them.Sometimes Americans and British people do not understand each other because of different word meanings. For example,the word“jumper”in Britain means a sweater.In the United States,it is a dress.The British word“brolly”is an“umbrella”in America.And the British call potato chips“crisps”.All of these differences led British writer George Bernard Shaw to joke that Britain and America are two countries separated by the same language!1.What does the underlined word“it”in the first paragraph refer to?A.Separating themselves from the British in language.B.Written English in America.C.Spoken English in America.D.Spoken English in Britain.2.Why did American want their language to differ from British English?A.Because they found British English hard to speak.B.Because they found British English hard to spell.C.Because they wanted to have their own language and government.D.Because foreign settlers wanted them to change their language.3.Why do Americans use the word“meter”instead of the word“metre”?A.Because Benjamin Franklin didn’t like the word“metre”.B.Because the word“meter”was absorbed from other languages.C.Because Webster thought the word should be said in order of the letters that are spelt.D.Because Webster thought American English should be made easier for foreign settlers to learn.4.Which of the following is NOT one of the reasons why English began to change in America?A.The government leaders.B.Noah Webster.C.Immigration to America.D.The difficulty Americans had in understanding the British.5.What does the passage mainly talk about?A.Noah Webster’s simplifying the spelling of English words.B.Differences and similarities between British and American English.C.The reasons why American English was formed and its development.D.Varieties of English throughout the world.课时训练3Module 2 A Job Worth DoingSection ⅡIntroduction & Reading and Vocabulary—Language StudyⅠ.品句填词1.Let me reassure you your service is quite s____________.2.Her m____________in life was to work with the homeless.3.We must r____________the traffic rules.4.Thank you for your o____________of help.5.She recognized that he was not ____________(合格的)for the post.6.The ____________(志愿者)for community service are doing a good job.Ⅱ.选词填空direct;respect;offer;in particular;have an effect on1.The manager’s job is mainly to ____________ the activities of others.2.I ____________ his views,although I do not agree with them.3.Is there anything ____________you’d like for dinner?4.Any change in lifestyle will____________your health.5.They ____________ him a very good job,but he turned it down.Ⅲ.单项填空1.________ theory,everyone must obey the rules,but ________practice,there are a few people who don’t obey the rules.A.In;on B.On;inC.In;in D.On;on2.The spokesman never gave a________answer to any question of the reporters.They often talked some unconcerning things.A.straight B.closeC.clear D.direct3.

This is an area of animal medicine where a vet’s work has many things in common with the work of a doctor of human diseases.I particularly liked it because I recognized that the study of animal diseases can help human medicine.As we know,many infectious diseases come from animals—including SARS and bird flu.Some of the infections have only been understood after carefully analytical work in labs by animal doctors. They helped identify the animal source for diseases such as SARS. They were also the first to identify various kinds of viruses. Sometimes vets are also able to suggest a cure for human illnesses.When I found this out I was determined to make public health medicine my chosen career.After graduation,I applied for a job in public health.Soon I found myself concerned with the problem of bird flu.This is an illness that attacks birds,but humans can catch the disease if they are in close contact with infected birds.Though the job is dangerous,it makes me proud that vets and other animal disease researchers are in the front line helping to fight these unknown human diseases.1.The writer wanted to become a vet mainly because______.A.he did well in all necessary subjectsB.he wanted to help animalsC.he was close to animals in his early lifeD.he wanted to find cures for human diseases2.What made the writer particularly like the course of public health care was that________.A.it was both important and interestingB.it could help him connect many human diseases with animalsC.it made a vet’s work very much like a doctor’sD.it could help human medicine by studying animal diseases3.What can be followed if this passage continues?A.The writer’s happy family life.B. How the writer did research work in studying bird flu.C.How the writer dealt with the relationship with other workmates.D.What difficulty the writer met in the research work.4.Which of the following is implied in the passage?A.Animals with infectious diseases should be killed.B.Keeping animals is dangerous to humans.C.Dangerous as a vet’s job is,it is significant to the human race.D.Animal researchers work in the same way as human doctors.5.Which of the following statements is NOT true?A.Being a vet is helpful to both animals and humans.B.Vets can cure both animals and humans.C.Vets helped identify animal resources for SARS.D.Both SARS and bird flu are infectious diseases coming from animals.Ⅴ.阅读表达[1]We are all faced with days or weeks when we feel like doing very little.We can become lazy and just feel completely out of step with life.Then we may even forget about getting anything done.Here are some ideas to help you become motivated(有积极性的).[2]List your goals or tasks.Making lists of what you want to finish can help you plan your time and keep you focused on what needs to get done.Imagine going about your day without knowing what you need to do or what you want to do.If you have a list,you’ll have a lot more motivation to get your things done.[3]Do your ________.This idea was made popular in Brian Tracy’s book Eat That Frog!Doing your least favorite task first will clear the path for you to do the tasks you would like to do.[4]Take pride in what you do.Whatever you do,you should feel proud of your work.This is harder when you work for yourself or by yourself.[5]Get excited.Try to see your tasks or goals as things that are fun and you will get excited.And you will actually start looking forward to them.When_you_look_forward_to_doing_something,it_doesn’t_seem_like_work.[6]It’s untrue to think we’ll be motivated to go all the time.We all have ups and downs.It’s important to recognize when you’re down and do what you can to pull yourself out of it.1.What is the passage mainly about?(no more than 10 words)________________________________________________________________________ 2.Which sentence

Unit 1 课下能力提升(四)Ⅰ.阅读理解With the click of a mouse consumers can purchase the goods and service they need at online shops. What they have to do is waiting for the goods sent to their homes. We shall all be grateful to the pioneers of online shopping for bringing us such convenience.Michael Aldrich (the U.K.)Online shopping was invented and pioneered by Michael Aldrich in the U.K. In 1979 he connected a television via a telephone line to a realtime multiuser transaction (交易) processing puter. He sold mainly BusinesstoBusiness systems. There were a number of significant world firsts with new applications in several business fields.Jeff Bezos (the U.S.A.)Jeff Bezos defined online shopping and rewrote the rules of merce. Tim Berners-Lee invented the World Wide Web server and browser (浏览器) in 1990. In 1994, Jeff Bezos read an article about how the World Wide Web was growing by 2,300% a year. He knew he had to tap into such a great potential for merce. On July 6, 1995, Bezos launched Amazon, which operated out of the garage of his twobedroom home in suburban Seattle, Washington. With almost no publicity, sales took off immediately. The pany has now expanded into dozens of product categories, forcing the world’s biggest retailer (零售商) to rethink their business models, and finally changing the way people shop.Jack Ma (China)As a child, Jack Ma was bad at math but fascinated by English. He traveled to the United States in 1995 as a translator to help a Chinese firm recover payment. The attempt failed. But a friend in Seattle showed Ma the Internet, and an idea began brewing.In 1999, Mr. Ma gathered 17 friends and founded Alibaba in his apartment in Hangzhou. Alibaba’s model was simple: allow small and mediumsized Chinese panies to find global buyers they would otherwise only be able to meet at trade shows. It works brilliantly. Alibaba’s sales are now more than those of eBay and Amazon bined.语篇解读:本文主要介绍了对网上购物有深远影响的三位人物以及他们对电子商务的促进作用。
