Many people suggest that parents should listen more to their children, so they will understand them better, and find it easy to narrow the generation gap; teachers should listen more to their students, then they can meet their needs better, and place themselves in a good relationship with their students; students should listen more to their classmates, thus they will help and learn from each other, and a friendship is likely to be formed.‎ ‎ What I want to stress is that each of us should listen more to others. Show your respect and never stop others till they finish their talk; show you are interested by a supportive silence or a knowing smile; be open－minded to different opinions even though you don't like them. In a word, good listening can really enable us to get closer to each other.‎ ‎ Thank_you_for_your_listening!‎ 考 点 探 究 互动探究·能力备考 Ⅰ.词汇短语过关 ‎1．means n. 方法；手段 by all means 务必；一定；当然可以 by any means 无论如何 by no means 决不(用于句首时引起部分倒装)‎ by this/these means 用这种/这些办法 by means of 依靠……方法，借助……手段 ‎[即学即练1](1)Taking a plane is ________________________ getting there.‎ 去那儿最快的方式是坐飞机。‎ ‎(2)All possible means ______ been tried.‎ ‎＝Every possible means ______ been tried.‎ 所有(每一种)可能的办法都已经试过了。‎ the quickest means of have has ‎(3)This plan must be realized __________________.‎ 这个计划必须完成。‎ ‎(4)Thoughts are expressed __________________ words.‎ 思想靠语言来表达。‎ ‎(5)By no means __________________ left alone.‎ 绝不能把他单独留下。‎ by all means by means of should he be 提示：(1)means 表示“方法、方式、手段”，其单复数同形。当 means 做主语且有 every, each 等词修饰时，谓语动词用单数；有 some, several, many, few, all 等词修饰时，谓语动词用复数。‎ ‎(2)by this means 强调的是“有条理的办事方法”；in this way 强调的是“用简便的方法”，in 有时候可以省略；with this method 强调的是“用已形成的系统的、理论的方法”。‎ ‎2．majority n. 大多数，大半 the majority 大多数(其做主语表整体时，谓语用单数；‎ 若表成员情况时，谓语用复数。)‎ the majority of＋n.

In order to reduce air pollution and oil shortages, carmakers have announced their plans to develop hybrid vehicles(混合燃料汽车) for the Chinese market. The first China made Toyota's hybrid car Prius hit the road last week. Let's have a look at the new car.‎ ‎ Any vehicle is a hybrid when it combines two or more sources of power. Hybrid cars use an electric motor with rechargeable ‎ batteries(充电电池) and a gasoline engine. A hybrid car has a smaller than traditional gasoline engine and an electric motor. The gasoline engine provides 99 per cent of the power when the car is cruising(匀速行车)．The electric motor provides extra power for running up hills or when extra acceleration(加速度) is needed.‎ Step into a Prius, and turn on the power. The first thing you notice is that it is quieter than a traditional car. At this point, the car's gasoline engine is dormant. The electric motor will provide power until the car reaches about 24km/h. If you stay at low speed, you are effectively driving an electric car, with no gasoline being used, and no exhaust gas given off.‎ An onboard computer decides when to use the gasoline engine, when to go electric, and when to use a combination of the two. If you go over 24km/h, when you step on the gas pedal(油门), you are telling the computer how fast you want to go.‎ ‎ The electric motor recharges automatically(自动地)when braking. And when driving at certain speeds, the gasoline engine not only powers the car but also recharges the batteries.When you use the brake, the electric motor acts like a generator(发电机) to produce electricity to recharge the batteries. Batteries will last for around 200 000 miles.‎ ‎1.When the hybrid car is cruising, ______.‎ A. only the gasoline engine provides power B. only the electric motor provides power C. there is no need to provide power D. both the gasoline engine and the electric motor provide power 答案及解析：‎ ‎1. D。考查细节理解。从第四段可知。‎ ‎2. The underlined word “dormant” means ______.‎ A. inactive B. out of order ‎ C. working D. nonstop 答案及解析：‎ ‎2. A。考查词义猜测。从该词的前后两句话可知。‎ ‎3.

The hybrid car has been made in mass. ‎ D. The hybrid car can decide which power to use.‎ 答案及解析：‎ ‎3. C。考查正误判断。只说这种新型车上路了，但大量生产并没提到。‎ ‎4. The best title of the text is______.‎ A. TwoPowered Cars ‎ B. Greener Motors for China C. Cars of Saving Oil ‎ D. Safer Motors at Present 答案及解析：‎ ‎4. B。考查主题理解。文章第一段是全文的中心，后面各段只是起补充说明的作用，因此B项最佳。‎ B ‎ The story goes that some time ago, a man punished his 3yearold daughter for wasting a roll of gold wrapping paper. Money was tight and he became infuriated(愤怒的) when the child tried to decorate a box to put under the Christmas tree. Nevertheless, the little girl brought the gift to her father the next morning and said, “This is for you, Daddy.” ‎ The man was embarrassed by his earlier overreaction, but his anger flared again when he found out the box was empty. He yelled at her, stating, “Don't you know, when you give someone a present, there is supposed to be something inside？” The little girl looked up at him with tears in her eyes and cried, “Oh, Daddy, it's not empty at all. I blew kisses into the box. They're all for you, Daddy.”‎ ‎ The father was crushed. He put his arms around his little girl, and he begged for her forgiveness. Only a short time later, an accident took ‎ the life of the child. It is also told that her father kept that gold box by his bed for many years and, whenever he was discouraged, he would take out an imaginary kiss and remember the love of the child who had put it there.‎ ‎ In a very real sense, each one of us, as human beings, has been given a gold container filled with unconditional love and kisses from our children, family members, friends, and God. There is simply no other possession anyone could hold more precious than this. ‎ ‎5. The 3－year－old girl was punished by her father for ______.‎ A. wasting gold ‎ B. wasting wrapping paper ‎ C. putting the box under the Christmas tree ‎ D. bringing the gift to her father 答案及解析：‎ ‎5.
