It's now 70 years after that line first appeared in the film, but it still seems to hold its power. The phrase comes from the film Gone with the Wind ・ It's set in the American South and tells the story of a strong woman, Scarlett O Hara, who struggles to find love duri ng the Civil War years and afterwards, and of her strength in survi ving the war and its hardships. The film not only shows the love-hate relati on ship of its characters, but also gives a view of an important chapter in American history. The significanee of this background made this film a true classic （经典）.When the film opened after World War II, French viewers loved it as it remin ded them of their fight against the Nazis ・ In 1940 Shanghai, during the War of Resista nee Against Japa nese Aggressi on, people stood in line for hours to watch this film, and saw the same suffering they were having as well as the hope and possibility of building a new homeland from the ruins （废墟）.People in every country could identity with the story and see it as a victory. In fact, Gone with the Wind never lost its charm and ability to inspire （激励）and amaze.厂 厂 L P A rather; than 匚丄 B such; that 匚丄 C not only; but also 儿丄 D so; that8.Shelly, normally .argued heatedly with them about the match. 厂 A was a shy girl 1 J B is a shy girl C a shy girl D shy girl 9.

Last Thursday Britain and France celebrated the 100th anniversary (周年纪念)of the signing of a friendship agreement called the Entenle Cordiality. The agreement marked a new begin ning for the cou ntries following cen turies of wars and love-hate part nership ・ But their relati on ship has been ups and downs over the past century. Just last year, there were fierce disagreements over the Iraq war 一which British Prime Minister Tony Blair supported despite French president Jacques Chirac speaking out against it. This discomfort is may well be because of the very differe nt ways in which the two sides see the world. But this does nt stop 12 million Britons taking holidays in France each year. However, only 3 million French comeinthe opposite directi on. Surveys (调査)show that most French people feel closer to the Germa ns tha n they do to the British. And the research carried out in Britain has found that only a thirdof the population believes the French can be trusted・ Perhaps this bad feeling comes because the British dislike France's close relationship with Germany, or because the French are not happy with Britain's close links with the US. Whatever the answer is, as both sides celebrate 100 years of 'doubtful friendship； they are at least able to make jokes about each other. Here's one: What's the best thing about Britain's relati on ship with Fran ce? The En glish Channel.V I 1.

Racing through daytime mesls is part of the pace of life in this country. Working time is considered precious・ Others in public eating places are waiting for you to finish so that they too can be served and get back to work within the time allowed. Each person hurries to make room for the next person. If you don't, waiters will hurry you. You also find drivers will be abrupt and that people will push past you. You will miss smiles, brief conversations： and small courtesies with strangers. Don't take it personally・ This is bec ause people value time highly, and they resent someone else ^wasting” it beyoind a certain courtesy point. The view of time affects the importa nee we attach to patience .In the American system of values, patience is not a high priorit y. Many of us have what might be called u a short fuse1*. We begin to move restlessly about if we feel time is slipping away without some return be this in terms of pleasure, work value, or rest. Those coming from land where time is looked upon differently may find this matter of pace to be one of their most difficult adjustments in both business and daily life. Many newcomers to the States will miss the opening courtesy of a business call, for example, they will miss the ritual socializing that goes with a welcoming cup of tea or coffee they may be traditional in their own country. They may miss leisurely business chats in a cafe or coffeehouse. Normally, America ns do not assess their visitors in such relaxed surroundings over prolonged small talks ・ We seek out evide nee of past performa nee rather than evaluate a business colleague through social courtesies ・ Since we generally assess and probe professi on ally rather than socially, we start talki ng business very quickl y.1.

If you telephone him early in the day, while he is shaving or having breakfast, the time of the callshows that the matter is very important and requires immediate attenti on. The same meaning is attached to telephone cals made after 11:00 pm. If some one receives a call duringsleepinghours, he assumes its a matter of life or death ・ The time chosen for the call communicates its importa rice. In social life, time plays a very important part ・ In the U.S.A. guests tend tofeel theyare not highly regarded if the invitation to a dinner party is extended only three or four days before the party date. But it is not true in all countries. In other areas of the world, it may beconsidered foolish to make an appointment too far in advanee because plans which are made for a date more than a week away tend to be forgotten. The meaning of time differs indifferentparts of the world. Thus, misunderstandings arise between people from different cultures that treat time differently ・ Promptness is valued higihly in American life, for example. If people are not prompt, they may be regarded as impolite or not fully responsible ・ In the U.S. no one would think of keeping a business associate waiting for an hour, it would be too impolite ・ A person,who is 5 minutes late, will say a few words of expla natio n, though perhaps he will not complete the sente nee.V I 1.

中考英语未来规划讨论练习题50题答案解析版1. I'm thinking about my future career. I really ____ to be a doctor.A. hopeB. wishC. expectD. want答案解析：D。
“want”表示想要，是最常用的表达个人愿望的词，在这里表达我想要成为一名医生，这种愿望比较直接，在描述未来职业规划时很常用。
“hope”后面一般接句子，如I hope I can be a doctor。
“wish”通常表示一种不太可能实现或者虚拟的愿望，也可用于祝福，例如I wish I were a bird（虚拟语气）。
“expect”更多表示期待、预料，例如I expect he will come，与想要成为医生的语境不符。
2. For my future study, I'm considering ____ to a foreign country.A. goB. goingC. to goD. gone答案解析：B。
“consider”这个词后面要接动名词形式，即“consider doing sth”，表示考虑做某事。
“go”是动词原形，“to go”是不定式，“gone”是过去分词，都不符合“consider”的用法。
3. My future plan is to ____ in the field of science.A. make a differenceB. make differenceC. make differencesD. make the difference答案解析：A。
“make a difference”是固定短语，意为产生影响、有所作为，在描述未来在科学领域有所作为很合适。
没有“make difference”和“make differences”这种用法，“make the difference”表示起决定性作用，与这里的语境不符。

English was first spoken by the Anglo-Saxons who invaded England in the fifth century. They passed onto us the basic vocabulary of English. In over fifteen centuries of its development, English has enriched itself by massive borrowing. As British immigrants landed in America and established the United States as an independent nation, a new variety was added to the English language: American English. Though some people worry that the language is running out of control, many native speakers of English take pride in the tolerance of their language.Unit8 Protecting Our Environment VocabularyI1.1)barking2)evil3)brooding;hatched 4)migrant 5)tragedies6)counterpart7)arecomplaining/co-mplain8)grim9)flocks; fed on10)vegetation11)patches12)Scores of2.1)was lined with people who came to welcome the distinguishedforeign guests.2)the boss silenced all lively conversation in the office.3)wearing a pair of sun glasses, the famous movie star passed thecrowed unnoticed.4)looked deserted.5)were stricken by it.3.1)patches; came into full bloom; were puzzled; mysterious2)throbbed with; sickened; migrant; a chorus3)had crept into; flickered; the starkII.Word Formation1.Compound words age-oldair force daughter-in-law first-rate greenhousehalf brother ice-cream lifelikelight year salespersonself-centered threefold overusestone-still worldwide Chinese meaning古老的空军儿媳妇一流的温室同母异父兄弟；同父异母兄弟冰淇淋逼真的光年售货员；推销员以自己为中心的，自私的三倍过度使用石头似的一动不动全世界范围的；在世界范围内2.1)poverty-stricken people2)heart-breaking news3)newly-built database4)well-fed kids 5)successful spacewalk6)peace-loving people7)need-based scholarships8)color-blind peopleIII.Confusable Words1.lyingidyin5.liey7.lieyy10.liesComprehensive Exercises I.cloze1.(1)spell(2)stricken(3)misfortunes(4)surroundings(5)blossom/bloom(6)migrant (7)deserted(8)silence(9)sickened(10)hatch(11)puzzled(12)in harmony with2.(1)rate(2)publication(3)dangerous(4)banned (5)export(6)profit(7)accept(8)comprehend(9)boundaries(10)ultimatelyII.Translation1.1)This is a prosperous town, but there is still poverty in the midstof wealth and abundance.2)The Brown family was stricken with one misfortune after another,but their children never complained.3)The museum is designed in such a way that it stands in perfectharmony with its surroundings.4)It was a miracle that these flowers did not wither at all in theblazing sun.5)Flocks of sheep feed on the patches of vegetation that rise abovethe winter snow.2.This village was once famous for its beautiful natural surroundings. All the year round, the trees were green and the flowers in bloom. Clear streams flowed out of the hills through a checkerboard of rice fields.

Misfortunes came one after another. Chicken died suddenly, cattle and sheep were stricken by mysterious maladies, and farmers complained about a sickening feeling that puzzled the village doctor.
