2020届一轮复习人教版必修一Unit3Traveljournal单元学案(56页)
2020届一轮复习人教版必修一Unit3Travel journal单元学案 Paul Roberts, 15, lives in New York. Like thousands of other American students, he usually goes away to a summer camp during the school holidays. These camps are just for teenagers, without their parents, and Paul always has a great time. But this summer he's doing something different — he's going on an adventure (冒险) holiday in Hawaii. He tells us about his plan, “It's a camping holiday for three weeks in Hawaii, for kids from 14 to 18. I'm leaving on 23 July and coming back on 12 August.” First, we're wellprepared and walking through the forest on an old native Hawaiian path. They say it's very beautiful, with huge waterfalls and golden beaches. After this fiveday walk, we're staying for two days in a valley on the Pacific Ocean. The main activity here will be surfing (冲浪). I don't know how to surf, but instructors will teach us how to do it, and I'm really looking forward to this. Then the organizers are providing mountain bikes and we're going for long rides — about 30 miles a day, around one of Hawaii's volcanoes (火山). And on one day we're meeting a local Hawaiian family and helping them to plant fruit trees on their farm. After that, we're sailing for three days along the coast, and they say we'll have a chance to swim with dolphins and sea turtles! This sounds fantastic.Finally, we're going out for three days in sea kayaks (小艇) — we're visiting sea caves and we'll be swimming and diving too. Every night for the three weeks, we're camping in tents, usually on the beach. This isn't a holiday for everyone! They say you have to be fit, and of course you have to know how to swim and ride a bike. But I think it's going to be a fantastic experience. Section_Ⅰ Warming Up & Reading — Prereading [原文呈现] [读文清障] JOURNEY DOWN THE MEKONG PART 1 THE DREAM AND THE PLAN My name is Wang Kun. Ever since① middle school, my sister Wang Wei and I have dreamed about② taking a great bike trip. Two years ago she bought an expensive mountain bike and then she persuaded③ me to buy one. Last year, she visited our cousins, Dao Wei and Yu Hang at their college in Kunming. They are Dai and grew up in western Yunnan Province near the Lancang River, the Chinese part of the river that is called the Mekong River in other countries④. Wang Wei soon got them interested in⑤ cycling⑥ too. After graduating⑦from college, we finally⑧ got the chance to take a bike trip. I asked my sister, “Where are we going?” It was my sister who first had the idea to cycle along the entire Mekong River from where it begins to where it ends⑨. Now she is planning our schedule○10 for the trip. ①ever since 自从;自……以后 ②dream about/of doing sth.梦想做某事 ③persuade[pə'sweId] vt.说服;劝说 persuade sb.(not) to do sth. 说服某人(不)做某事 ④that ...是 that 引导的定语从句,修饰the river。 ⑤get sb. interested in sth.使某人对某事物产生兴趣 ⑥cycle ['saIkl] vi.骑自行车 ⑦graduate ['grædʒʊeIt] vi.毕业,['grædʒʊət] n.大学毕业生 graduate from 毕业于…… ⑧finally ['faInəlI] adv.最后;终于 ⑨本句是强调句型“It was ... who ...”,其中who可换为that。from ... to ...“从……到……”,from和to后均跟了where引导的宾语从句。 ○10schedule ['ʃedjuːl;'skedʒʊl]n.时间表;进度表vt.为某事安排时间 沿湄公河而下的旅程 第一部分 梦想与计划 [第1段译文] 我叫王坤。从中学起,我姐姐王薇和我就一直梦想进行一次伟大的自行车旅行。两年前,她买了一辆昂贵的山地自行车,然后她说服我也买了一辆。去年她去看望了我们的表兄弟——在昆明读大学的刀卫和宇航。他们是傣族人,在云南省西部靠近澜沧江的地方长大,湄公河在中国境内的这一段叫澜沧江,在其他国家(境内)叫湄公河。很快,王薇使表兄弟也对骑车产生了兴趣。大学毕业以后,我们终于有了机会骑自行车旅行。我问我姐姐:“我们要去哪儿?”首先想到要沿整条湄公河从源头到终点骑车旅游的是我的姐姐。现在她正在为我们的旅行制订日程表。 I am fond of⑪ my sister but she has one serious shortcoming⑫. She can⑬ be really stubborn⑭. Although she didn't know the best way of getting to places, she insisted that she organize⑮the trip properly⑯ . Now I know that the proper way is always her way. I kept asking⑰ her, “When are we leaving and when are we coming back?”⑱ I asked her whether she had looked at a map yet. Of course she hadn't; my sister doesn't care about⑲ details⑳. So I told her that the source○21 of the Mekong is in Qinghai Province. She gave me a determined○22 look — the kind that○23 said she would not change her mind○24.When I told her that our journey○25 would begin at an altitude○26 of more than 5,000 metres, she seemed to be excited about it. When I told her the air would be hard to breathe and it would be very cold, she said it would be an interesting experience. I know my sister well. Once she has made up her mind○27, nothing can change it. Finally, I had to give in○28. ⑪be fond [fɒnd] of 喜爱;喜欢 ⑫shortcoming ['ʃɔːtˌkʌmIŋ] n.缺点 ⑬can 表示客观的可能性,意为“可能;有时会”。 ⑭stubborn ['stʌbən] adj.顽固的;固执的 ⑮organize ['ɔːgənaIz] vt.组织;成立 ⑯insist表示“坚持;主张;坚决要求”时,后接的宾语从句用虚拟语气,即谓语动词用“(should+)动词原形”。 ⑰keep doing sth. 一直做某事;不断地做某事 ⑱进行时 are leaving, are coming back 表示将来。 ⑲care about关心;忧虑;惦念 ⑳detail ['diːteIl;dI'teIl] n.细节;详情 ○21source [sɔːs] n.来源;水源 ○22determined [dI'tɜːmInd] adj.坚决的;有决心的 determine [dI'tɜːmIn] vt.决定;确定;下定决心 ○23that said ... 是that 引导的定语从句,修饰先行词 the kind, that在从句中作主语。 ○24change one's mind 改变主意 ○25journey ['dʒɜːnI] n.旅行;旅程 ○26altitude ['æltItjuːd] n.海拔高度;高处 at an altitude of 在……的高度 ○27make up one's mind下决心;决定 ○28give in 投降;屈服;让步 [第2段译文] 我很喜欢我姐姐,但是她有一个严重的缺点。她有时会很固执。虽然她对去某些地方的最佳路线并不清楚,她却坚持要自己把这次旅游安排得尽善尽美。现在我知道这个尽善尽美的方式总是她的方式。我不停地问她:“我们什么时候出发?什么时候回来?”我还问她是否已经看过地图。当然她并没有看过——我的姐姐是不会考虑细节的。于是,我告诉她,湄公河的源头在青海省。她给了我一个坚定的眼神——这种眼神表明她是不会改变主意的。当我告诉她我们的旅行将从5 000 多米的高地出发时,她似乎显得很兴奋。当我告诉她那里空气稀薄,呼吸困难,而且天气很冷时,她却说这将是一次有趣的经历。我非常了解我的姐姐,她一旦下了决心,什么也不能使她改变。最后,我只好让步了。 Several months before our trip, Wang Wei and I went to the library. We found a large atlas○29 with good maps that showed details of world geography○30. From the atlas we could see that the Mekong River begins in a glacier○31 on a mountain in Qinghai Province. At first the river is small and the water is clear and cold. Then it begins to move quickly. It becomes rapids○32 as it passes through deep valleys○33, travelling across western Yunnan Province○34. Sometimes the river becomes a waterfall○35 and enters wide valleys. We were both surprised to learn that half of the river is in China. After it leaves China and high altitude, the Mekong becomes wide, brown and warm. As it enters Southeast Asia, its pace○36 slows. It makes wide bends○37 or meanders○38 through low valleys to the plains where rice grows○39. At last, the river delta○40 enters the South China Sea.,○29atlas ['ætləs] n.地图;地图集 ○30that ...是that引导的定语从句,修饰maps。 ○31glacier ['ɡlæsIə;'ɡleIʃə] n.冰河;冰川 ○32rapids ['ræpIdz] n.急流 ○33valley ['vælI] n.(山)谷;流域 ○34as it ... 是as引导的时间状语从句。 ○35waterfall ['wɔːtəfɔːl] n.瀑布 ○36pace [peIs] vi.缓慢而行;踱步 n.一步;速度;步调 ○37bend [bend] n.弯;拐角 vi.使弯曲 vt.弯身;弯腰 ○38meander [mI'ændə] n.(指河流等)蜿蜒缓慢流动 ○39where rice grows 是where 引导的定语从句,修饰the plains。 ○40delta ['deltə] n.三角洲 [第3段译文] 在我们旅行前的几个月,王薇和我去了图书馆。我们找到一本大型地图册,里面有一些世界地理的明细图。我们从图上可以看到,湄公河发源于青海省一座山上的冰川。起初,河面很小,河水清澈而冷冽。然后,它开始快速流动。当它穿过深谷时就变成了急流,流经云南西部。有时,这条江形成瀑布,进入宽阔的峡谷。我们俩惊奇地发现这条河有一半是在中国境内。当它流出中国,流出高地之后,湄公河就变宽了,变暖了,河水也变成了黄褐色。当它进入东南亚以后,它的流速减缓。河水蜿蜒缓慢地穿过低谷,流向生长稻谷的平原。最后,湄公河三角洲的各支流汇入中国南海。 Prereading Please match the words with their proper meanings. 1.transport A.费用 2.prefer B.最后;终于 3.fare C.时间表;进度表 4.persuade D.旅行;旅程 5.finally E.运送;运输 6.journey F.说服;劝说 7.attitude G.更喜欢;选择某事物(而不 选择其他事物) 8.schedule H.态度;看法 1~5 ____________ 6~8 ____________ 答案:1~5 EGAFB 6~8 DHC Leadin 1.If you have a good chance to go travelling, where would you like to go?

First of all, always check and doublecheck departure (出发) time. It is surprising how few people really do this carefully. Once I arrived at the airport a few minutes after ten. My secretary had got the ticket for me and I thought she had said that the plane left at 10:50. When I arrived at the airport, the person at the departure desk told me that my flight was closed. Therefore, I had to wait three hours for the next one and missed an important meeting. The second rule is to remember that even in this age of credit cards (信用卡), it is still important to have some local money in cash (现金). Once I arrived at a place at midnight and the bank at the airport was closed. The only way to get to my hotel was by taxi but because I had no dollars, I offered to pay in pounds instead.“Listen! I only take real money!” the driver said angrily. You can imagine how terrible I felt at that moment. The third and the last rule is to find out as much as you can about the weather at your destination before you leave. I feel sorry for some of my workmates who travel in heavy suits and raincoats in May, when it is still fairly cool in London or Manchester, to places like Athens, Rome or Madrid, where it is already beginning to get quite warm during the day. 语篇解读:本文为说明文,主要介绍了如何做好旅行的准备工作。 1.Where is the writer most probably from?

This is our first trip to Thailand. All the different smells make us want to try the food. We are going to eat something special for dinner tonight. The hotel we are staying in is cheap, and very clean. We plan to stay here for a few days, visit some places in the city, and then travel to Chiang Mai in the North. Tuesday, March 27th Bangkok is wonderful and surprising. The places are interesting. We visited the famous market which was on the water, and saw a lot of fruits and vegetables. Everything is so colorful, and we have taken hundreds of photos already! Later today we will leave for Chiang Mai. We will take the train north, stay in Chiang Mai for two days, and then catch a bus to Chiang Rai. Friday, March 30th Our trip to Chiang Rai was long and boring. We visited a small village in the mountains. The village people here love the quiet life — no computers or phones. They are the kindest people I have ever met. They always smile and say “hello”. Kathy and I can only speak a few words of Thai, so smiling is the best way to show our kindness. I feel good here and hope to be able to come back next year. 语篇解读:文章是几篇日记,介绍了作者泰国之旅中的一些见闻。 5.The diaries above show the writer's ________ days in Thailand.

Ben Akintola, 30, was snowboarding in the French Alps under a clear blue sky in the afternoon when a large amount (数量) of snow fell down the side of the mountain. He didn't have time to escape (逃脱) and it hit him with full force and knocked him senseless. He woke in the middle of the night in total darkness. He was lying on an icy rock. Amazingly, he still had a mobile phone signal (信号),so he called a friend a thousand kilometers away in Britain. His friend called the French rescue services. “I was waiting for what seemed like hours on that rock. I was beginning to give up hope when I heard the sound of a helicopter. It was circling around in the darkness, looking for me. I was trying my best to wave my mobile around. Fortunately the helicopter pilot saw the light.” “I was overjoyed when the helicopter headed my way. It stayed above me and began lowering a rope.” Ben was in hospital last night but he was not being treated for any serious injuries. He's looking forward to going home today. The French rescue services said:“We were very pleased that we were able to save Ben. The risk of snowslide offpiste (非滑雪场地的) is much higher at this time of year. All snowboarders and skiers should stay on the ski runs and not go offpiste. Ben was very lucky.” 语篇解读:本文是新闻报道。文章主要报道了一名滑雪者在阿尔卑斯山遭遇雪崩后被营救的故事。 9.What happened to Ben? A.He got lost in the French Alps.

Often achieving what you plan to do isn't the important thing. __1__ Two brothers decided to dig a deep hole behind their house. While they were working, a few older boys stopped by to watch.“What are you doing?” asked one of the visitors.“We plan to dig a hole all the way through the earth!” one of the brothers volunteered excitedly. The older boys began to laugh, telling the younger ones that digging a hole all the way through the earth was impossible. After a long silence, one of the diggers picked up a jar full of spiders, worms and a wide variety of insects.__2__ Then he said quietly and confidently, “Even if we don't dig all the way through the earth, look at what we found along the way!” __3__And that is what a goal is for — to cause us to move in the direction we have chosen, in other words, to have us digging! But not every goal will be fully achieved. Not every job will end successfully. Not every relationship will endure. Not every hope will come to pass. Not every love will last.__4__ So when you fail to reach your aim, perhaps you can say, “Yes, but look at what I found along the way! Look at the wonderful things which have come into my life because I tried to do something!” It is in the digging that life is lived. __5__ A.And I believe in the end it is joy in the journey that truly matters. B.He opened the jar and showed the wonderful things contained in it to the laughing visitors. C.Here are some reasons for you. D.Not every dream will come true. E.Let me explain.

Madagascar is not a good place for a cycling holiday:one of the world's poorest countries, only 11 percent of roadway is paved (铺). South of the town of Antalaha, where I started, the road was in worse condition. I appeared from a week in the wilderness and reached the start of the Route National 5 at Maroantsetra, but my dream of a smooth road and speed was suddenly destroyed by mud. The “worst road in the country” changed my bicycle into a burden (负担) for days. Finally, I_was_claimed_by_the_road. Tired. Alone. As I wiped (擦) the mud from my face and looked upwards, I was greeted by a Malagasy man. He helped me stand up and smiled playfully while he pointed to my bike, which sat next to his. I started again. But I fell again in the mud. Angrily, I told him to go on, but if he understood he showed no sign of it. His smile forced me back onto the bike. We continued like this for hours. But I fell less. Studying my quick guide, slowly I learned. As we passed through a village, a group of children saw me and shouted loudly. His only words were:“Their parents tell them white people steal and eat them. Funny, no?” I tried to ask why, but he had already set off.I tried to catch up; as I got closer, he took it as a challenge and sped up. We raced along the road. I rode a little faster and I was just behind, about to catch up with him. With a smile, he sped up and was away, leaving me breathless. 语篇解读:本文是记叙文。文章主要介绍了作者在非洲马达加斯加骑行遇到困难的时候,一位当地人激励自己继续骑行的故事。 1.What was in the author's mind when he was in the mud?

Have_a_good_journey!_ Sincerely, Wang_Yang Ever since graduated from college, I have dreamed about travelling in the different means of transport. I will get the chance to go to Dali. As I care about details very much, I am going to find more information about it. I think the trip should be organized carefully. And I always like doing everything better no matter how hard it is because I am a determined person. In my view, once you have made up your mind to do something, better not change it. Even if you may meet with some difficulties, it's not a good idea to give in. If you are fond of something, keep a positive attitude to it. So I think my trip to Dali will be a wonderful one. 自从大学毕业,我就梦想可以通过不同的交通方式去旅游。现在即将有一次去大理的机会。由于我是一个非常注重细节的人,所以我打算多查找一些关于大理的信息。我觉得应该精心组织一下这次旅行。而且,无论有多难,我是那种总喜欢把事情尽量做完美的人,因为我是一个很坚定的人。在我看来,一旦你下定决心要做什么,最好别改变,即使会遇到困难也不要轻易放弃;如果喜欢一件事,就要用积极的态度对待它。所以,我想我的大理之旅将会精彩无限。 加餐练(一) 完形阅读组合练 Ⅰ.完形填空 Some people say that childhood is the best time of your life.__1__, being a child has both advantages and disadvantages.

But I also wanted to travel before starting my course. A friend of mine told me about the Schools Exploring Society, an organization which helps students take a gap year (a year between leaving school and going to college). It has three foreign journeys a year, taking 1620yearolds on science and nature trips. I love being outdoors, and a mountaineering trip to Alaska was on offer. So I signed up (报名) immediately. There was one problem, though. I had to raise a large amount of money for the trip. It was a big task, but I managed to make it. I washed cars, worked in a cafe and also sold off some of my old books, clothes and CDs. Then, just before starting out, I started worrying.Can I do this?Am I fit enough?What if I see a bear? Seventy of us traveled to Alaska. The first two days after arrival were spent in a school hall preparing our equipment and five tons of food. Then we left for the beautiful Talkeetna Mountain. On the trip we dug paths and recognized plant species. Then we climbed a mountain that was over 6,000 feet high. It was tiring but exciting. Looking back, a gap year was so right for me. I learned a lot about accepting other people for what they are.We had to help each other and it made me less selfish. My gap year has also made me more able to concentrate (专心).Now, whenever I'm worried about anything, I think I did Alaska — I can do this! 语篇解读:本文是记叙文。作者介绍了自己在“间隔年”去阿拉斯加的旅游经历以及收获。 1.We can learn from Paragraph 1 that the author________.

A.was well worth it B.got him interested in plants C.made him fall behind others in study D.helped him know more about himself 解析:选A 推理判断题。由最后一段中的“Looking back, a gap year was so right for me.”可知,作者认为他的间隔年让他受益匪浅,非常值得。 4.What might be the author's purpose in writing the text? A.To explain how to prepare for trips. B.To advise on how to spend a gap year. C.To describe his experience in his gap year.

In order to take more exercise, all of us cycled there. We did many interesting activities that day. One was going boating in the river, which made some of us, especially the girls frightened because they had never experienced that before. The most exciting activity was the fishing competition, in which I caught the most fish. The Wetland Park was really a wonderful place and we had a great time there. When are you returning to China?

During the first week of his stay, he went out one day to do some shopping. He came back in the late afternoon to discover that his suitcase was gone. He was extremely worried as the suitcase had all his important papers, including his passport. He reported the case to the police and then sat there, lost and lonely in a strange city, thinking of the terrible troubles of getting all the paperwork organized again from a distant country while trying to settle down in a new one. Late in the evening, the phone rang. It was a stranger. He was trying to pronounce my husband's name and was asking him a lot of questions. Then he said they had found a pile of papers in their trash can (垃圾桶) that had been left out on the footpath. My husband rushed to their home to find a kind family holding all his papers and documents. Their young daughter had gone to the trash can and found a pile of unfamiliar papers. Her parents had carefully sorted them out, although they had found mainly foreign addresses on most of the documents. At last they had seen a halfwritten letter in the pile in which my husband had given his new telephone number to a friend. That family not only restored the important documents to us that day but also restored our faith and trust in people. We still remember their kindness and often send a warm wish to them. 语篇解读:作者一家人搬到悉尼后,作者的丈夫丢失了重要的文件,幸运的是文件被一家人捡到并归还给他们。 25.What did Rashid plan to do after his arrival in Sydney? A.Go shopping.

A.Showed. B.Sent out. C.Delivered. D.Gave back. 解析:选D 词义猜测题。根据restored 所在的句子以及上文可知,作者的丈夫丢失了文件,捡到文件的那一家人把文件归还给了他们。restore表示“(将某失物等)归还原主”,相当于give back。 28.Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A.From India to Australia B.Living in a New Country C.Turning Trash to Treasure D.In Search of New Friends 解析:选C 标题归纳题。作者丈夫丢失的重要文件是被一家人在垃圾桶中发现的,然后归还给了他们。由此可知选C “失而复得(变废为宝)”。 C Sequoyah was born in the 1770s and grew up in the Cherokee village of Tuskeegee, Tennessee. He was skilled at working with silver jewelry (首饰). One day Sequoyah was advised to put his name on the silver jewelry he made. However, he could not write his name because Cherokee was only a spoken language. Sequoyah decided to learn how to write his name, so he asked one of his customers (顾客) to teach him, who knew English very well. From that time on, Sequoyah signed (签名) his work in English. Then Sequoyah realized that a written language was necessary for his people. In 1809, he started by making small drawings, and then he experimented with creating a letter for each sound in the Cherokee language. First, Sequoyah picked out all the sounds in the Cherokee language. Then he gave each sound a symbol. Unlike English, however, no two sounds shared the same symbol. Sequoyah's work was difficult and took him a lot of time. Worse, those around Sequoyah didn't understand what he was doing with all those strange symbols. Some raised doubts about his work. However, Sequoyah didn't stop working. In 1821, Sequoyah completed his alphabet (字母表). Each symbol in the alphabet symbolized one of the eightyfive sounds in the Cherokee language. By saying the name of each symbol, a person could read the spoken word. Sequoyah taught the symbols to his sixyearold daughter, Ayoka. One day, they went to visit the elders of the Cherokee Nation. Sequoyah asked Ayoka to leave while he wrote down what the elders said. When Ayoka returned, she read out loud what Sequoyah had written. The elders were stunned. Ayoka was able to repeat their words without being present! Sequoyah's alphabet was soon accepted as the written language of the Cherokee Nation. 语篇解读:本文是记叙文。文章主要讲述了切罗基语文字的由来。 29.Sequoyah learned to sign his work ________. A.so that he would become famous B.with the help of one of his customers C.when he moved to a Cherokee village D.in order to save the Cherokee language 解析:选B 细节理解题。由第一段中的“he asked one of his customers (顾客) to teach him”可知,B项正确。 30.What can we learn about Sequoyah's alphabet? A.It is made up of eightyfive letters. B.It uses at least two letters to symbolize a sound. C.It was created in the early eighteenth century. D.It was the same as the English alphabet at first. 解析:选A 细节理解题。由第二段中的“he started ... creating a letter for each sound”和第三段中的“the eighty five sounds in the Cherokee language”可知,他发明的字母表中共有85个字母,故选A项。 31.The underlined word “stunned” in the last paragraph probably means “________”. A.worried B.thankful C.regretful D.surprised 解析:选D 词义猜测题。由该词后面的“Ayoka was able to repeat their words without being present!”可知,那些长者感到非常惊讶,故选D项。 32. What would be the best title for the text? A.The Cherokee Nation B.A popular language C.A gift beyond price D.Fine silver jewelry 解析:选C 标题归纳题。文章主要讲述了Sequoyah是如何为切罗基族人的口头语言设计出一套实用的书写文字,这是一份无法用价钱来衡量的礼物,故用C项作为标题最恰当。 D How do young children learn to have good values? How can parents teach their children about the importance of kindness and patience? At a time when more and more parents worry about the violent images (暴力形象) their children see on TV, some are turning to fairy tales (童话). It is believed that fairy tales have a great influence on children because they describe the two sides of good and evil (邪恶) very clearly. When children hear the stories,they learn to care about others' feelings. In each tale, they can see that there are many different kinds of people in the world and that we all have a choice about what kind of person we want to be. We can choose to do good actions,rather than bad ones, in our lives. What kind of values can children learn from fairy tales? In The Princess and the Pea (《豌豆公主》), a poorly dressed girl, who insists she is a princess, is given a difficult test by the Queen. When she passes the test, we learn that her dream comes true because she stays true to herself. In The Little Mermaid (《小美人鱼》), the mermaid, who lives under the sea, wishes to be with the humans on land. Through her experiences, we learn about the importance of living with and accepting other cultures. In Pinocchio, a wooden puppet (木偶) turns into a boy when he finally learns how to tell the truth. Teaching values is the reason most often given for encouraging children to read stories. These fairy tales can teach children lessons about human relationships that are accepted around the world for many centuries. This might be the reason why they have been around for so long and will not disappear any time soon. 语篇解读:本文是说明文。作者主要介绍了童话故事对孩子们的积极影响。 33.Why do fairy tales have a great influence on children? A.Fairy tales can teach them how to make a choice. B.Fairy tales can help them get higher scores at school. C.They can learn how to avoid most difficulties in their lives. D.Good and evil are shown in a way they can easily understand. 解析:选D 细节理解题。由第二段中的“they describe the two sides of good and evil (邪恶) very clearly”可知,童话故事对孩子们的影响大是因为它们将善恶很直白地呈现给了孩子们,便于他们辨别是非,故选D项。 34.The Little Mermaid may be helpful when children ______. A.are given a difficult test B.make friends with foreigners C.wish to be a princess or prince D.are going to lie to their parents 解析:选B 推理判断题 。由第三段中的“we learn about the importance of living with and accepting other cultures”可知,当孩子们和外国人结交朋友时,《小美人鱼》会告诉他们如何去接受其他文化,故选B项。 35.The author writes the text mainly to ________. A.introduce some fairy tales B.talk about the history of fairy tales C.discuss how to improve human relationships D.show how fairy tales help children shape values 解析:选D 写作意图题。总览全文可知,作者主要介绍了童话故事对孩子们的积极影响,故选D项。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分) 根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Bedrooms Bedrooms are very important.
