This Ms Boyle, looking unfashionable, from a village in Scotland, shocked the three judges and the audience with the song I dreamed a dream from the musical Les Miserables on a show of Britain's Got Talent, one of the hottest reality shows in Britain. She couldn't hide the awkwardness when walking to the center of the stage in a housedress, and everyone—including the judges—seemed laughing at her when she said she wanted to be as successful as Elaine Paige. As soon as she began singing, however, everyone in the auditorium fell silent, then rose within seconds to applaud her incredible voice as the celebrity judges sat openmouthed, and remained standing to the end. After her performance, one of the judges Piers Morgan said，“Without doubt that 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 3 was the biggest surprise I've had in three years of this show. When you stood there everyone was laughing at you.No one is laughing now. That was amazing.”Actress Amanda Holden followed，“I'm so thrilled because I know that we everybody were against you.I honestly think that we were all being very cynical(愤世嫉俗的) and I think that's the biggest wakeup call ever.” Susan obviously won over the hearts of millions around the world with sensation spreading across the Atlantic. Hollywood actors Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore—who between them have nearly 1.5 million followers—speak highly of her. Kutcher posted a link to the video clip(片段). The Scottish talent made her live American debut via satellite connection on CBS's The Early Show, doing an interview and singing live from her room. And she already accepted an invitation from talk show hostess Oprah Winfrey. Now Boyle has become one of the world's hottest celebrities. The video clip of her performance has been viewed more than 50 million times on Youtube, becoming a hit on the Internet. 16．We learn from the passage that Susan Boyle ________． A．rose from a low social class B．had an unhappy marriage C．lived with a dog alone on a farm D．won the championship in the Britain's Got Talent show 17．At the beginning of the show, almost everybody ________． A．looked forward to her wonderful performance B．was attracted by her beautiful dress C．looked down upon her D．placed great hope on her 18．We can infer that ________ contributed most to her global popularity. A．the judges B．the Internet C．the newspaper D．the advertisement 19．The 4th paragraph is intended to tell us ________． A．how Susan Boyle achieved her success B．the comment made by American actor Ashton Kutcher C．Susan Boyle's influence in the USA D．Oprah Winfrey's invitation to Susan Boyle Ⅲ.阅读填空 People with interesting personalities often have more opportunities open to them because of their ability to maintain the attention of others. When you meet or talk to someone with this kind of disposition, you may feel as though your personality is dull and uninspiring. 20.________ Listen to what others have to say. Most people enjoy talking about their lives and themselves, so become more interested and you will seem more interesting. 21.________ Look them directly in the eyes and ask them questions or comment on what they have just told you, instead of just waiting for your turn to talk about yourself. 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 4 22．________ Watch the news, read books, and pay attention. If you don't know about a particular topic, research it and form an opinion on it. People like to be around others who can carry on conversations about lots of things. Look for the humor in every situation. A sense of humor can work wonders for a dull personality, so laugh as often as you can and you'll be a more naturally attractive person. Laughter can also get rid of your stress to a degree. 23.________ Accept and love yourself and others. When you dislike yourself and your personality, other people pick up on this, and they may assume they shouldn't like you, either. 24.________ Judge other people less as well; gossip and speaking poorly of others can seem like good shortterm entertainment, but in the long run it can make you seem dull and untrustworthy. A. Form opinions on everything. B．Make everyone you speak to feel important. C．Your brain will see these situations as reality. D．Search for the best in yourself and everyone else. E．When you feel better, you're more fun to be around. F．You'd better make a few simple changes to your outlook. G．But it's relatively easy to develop those personalities that you find so interesting. 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 5 课时作业(十六) Ⅰ.1.D injured in the traffic accident 作定语修饰 people，the injured 意为“伤 者”，在句中作主语，谓语动词用复数。 2．B 考查非谓语动词和虚拟语气。该句可以是“…the headmaster insisted that the problems which had been referred to should be paid special attention to.”。由此 可以看出，referred to 为过去分词作后置定语；insist 后的宾语从句用“should＋动词原 形”，should 被省略。句意：在例行办公会议上，校长坚持提及的问题应给予特别的关注。 3．A 考查副词的用法。be well worth doing…“很值得做……”。由句意“他的第 一本书对我们的课程很有用，但他最新出的这一本更值得一读”可知应选 A 项。 4．C 考查动词的时态。由句意“他打算今天去北京，但当他听说中午会有大雨后，他 就推迟了出行”可知，intend 所表示的动作发生在 postpone 之前，故应选 C 项，即用过去 完成时态。 5．D 考查动词短语辨析。句意：昨天在百货商店购物时，她遇上了她的一个老朋友。 turn down 拒绝；deal with 对付，处理；take after 长得像，性格类似于，效仿；come across 穿过，越过，偶然遇见。 6．D 考查固定结构。第一个空考查 spend time (in) doing sth“花费时间做某事”； 第二个空考查 would rather do…than do…结构，意为“宁愿做……也不做……”。句意： 他们宁愿把时间花在读书上也不在街上闲逛。 7．D 考查名词辨析。condition 状况，条件。in good condition 状况良好。句意： 尽管这辆二手车似乎状况良好，但它跑不快。state 状态；situation 处境，形势；occasion 时刻，场合。 8．B 考查动词短语辨析。carry out a plan 执行计划，符合题意。set aside 挤出， 匀出；take in 欺骗，吸收，理解；get through 完成。 9．D 考查非谓语动词。the last Thursday of November 与 observe 之间是动宾关 系，且所表示动作是将来时，所以用不定式的被动语态作宾补。句意：在 1863 年，林肯总 统签署了一个宣言，主张把每年十一月的最后一个星期四定为感恩节。故选 D。 10．B 考查非谓语动词。observe sb do sth 变为被动语态时不定式的符号 to 不省略， 即 sb be observed to do sth。 11．D 考查过去分词作宾补。结构是 get these goods delivered, ordered 作后置定 语。 12．B 句意：是农民为我们提供粮食，但有些城里人却“瞧不起(look down upon)” 他们。look forward to 期盼；look back upon 回顾；look up to 尊敬，均不符合句意。 13．B 考查动词的时态和倒装句的用法。only 引导状语位于句首时，需要使用倒装结 构，而该状语 only then 表明了动作发生在过去，故选 B 项。 14．A 考查固定句型。It hits/hit sb that…意为“某人突然想到……”。 15．C 由转折连词 but 可知前面是对他工作努力的事实表示肯定。 Ⅱ.一个非常富有的父亲和他挚爱的儿子都喜欢收藏艺术珍宝。然而，年轻人在保家卫 国的战争中，为了救一名战士不幸牺牲。在圣诞节早上，孤独伤心的父亲被一阵敲门声惊醒， 他收到了最宝贵的“艺术珍藏品”——被救的战士送来的他儿子的画像。 16．C 他们一起环游世界，只寻找最精美的(finest)艺术珍宝来收藏。 17．D 根据下文可知，年轻人参战以保家卫国。故此处指战争吞没了整个国家。 18．C serve the country “为国家服务”，即保卫祖国。 19．A 在仅几个星期以后，父亲接到一份电报，他深爱的儿子失踪了。根据下句中的 “__21__ he would never see his son again”可知此处 missing“失踪”正确。 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 6 20．B 艺术收藏家焦急地(anxiously)等待更多的消息。A 意为“平静地”；C 意为“安 静地”；D 意为“秘密地”。 21．A 害怕再也见不到他的儿子。故 fear“害怕，畏惧”正确。根据下句中的“Within days，his fears…”也可知答案。 22．D 几天后，他的恐惧被证实(confirmed)了。年轻人在送战友去看病时身亡。 23．C 这位老人在不安和孤独中伤心地面对将要到来的圣诞节。根据语境可知 lonely“孤独的”正确。A 意为“紧张的”；B 意为“劳累的”；D 意为“害怕的”。 24．A 在圣诞节的早上，敲门声吵醒了伤心的老人。根据上句中的“…with sadness” 可知此处用 sad。 25．B 当他开门时，一个战士向他打招呼，手里拿着一个大包裹。根据第五段的“As the two began to __28__ ，the soldier told of how…”可知答案。 26．D 我是你儿子的一个朋友(friend)，就是为了救“我”他才牺牲的。 27．A rescue 拯救，符合语境。 28．C 根据语境可知他们两人此刻在交谈，故 talk 正确。 29．B 战士提到，他的儿子告诉每个人他和父亲对艺术的热爱(love)。 30．A “我不是艺术家”，战士说，“但是我想给你这个。”根据下文可知那个战士画 了一幅老人儿子的画像送给了老人，故 artist“艺术家”正确。 31．B 根据转折连词 though 可知此处表示“尽管世人永远不会认为这是一个天才的作 品，但是这幅图画以惊人的细节描绘了年轻人的面部”，故 never 正确。 32．C in detail 详细地，是固定用法。 33．A 老人情绪很激动，他很感谢(thanked)战士。 34．C 在战士离开后，老人把儿子的画像放在了壁炉上面，把价值上万的艺术珍藏品 推到了一边。push aside…把……推在一边，符合语境。 35．B 做完这些后，老人坐在椅子上，凝视着他收到的礼物(gift)度过了圣诞节。 Ⅲ.科技的发展给人们生活带来了种种便利，但我们又从中失去了什么呢？在作者推荐 的这本书中，我们或许能找到些答案。 36．D 推理判断题。通读全文可知，Sherry Turkle 担心人们迷失在现代科技世界中， 故答案选 D 项。 37．A 句意理解题。从文中内容可知，虽然互联网把我们联系在一起，但它却隔离着 我们，我们都是孤独的个体，故选 A。 38．B 细节理解题。从倒数第二段的“In a text message, you can avoid eye contact…is becoming unconcerned.”可知，如果孩子经常用短信交流，则他/她会很少关 注他人的感受，答案选 B 项。 39．A 写作意图题。从文章最后一段“This book is not to be missed and worthy of every dollar you spend.”可知，写作本文主要是为了推荐 Sherry Turkle 写的书，所以 A 项正 确
