2019年度高考英语人教版必修三课堂要点精析讲义：Unit1单元小结

An Interesting Festival The Agricultural Feast takes place after the Independence Day. It is not a worldwide celebration. Only Christians in Mexico look forward to its arrival for its religious origin.‎ Long ago, humans' ancestors were bad. They fooled and played tricks on each other and never kept their words.So God turned up and drowned all their crops. Humans starved day and night, weeping. In order to gain God's forgiveness, a woman poet set off to see God. She admired God and kept apologizing. God was moved. With his permission, humans finally had good harvests again. So, to wipe sadness and remind themselves of the belief in God, people began the festival.‎ On the festival, people gather in the open air, such as playgrounds or parking lots, and energetically have fun with each other all night long, as though they were never tired. When a beauty dressed up in lovely clothing reads poems in memory of the poet, everyone holds their breath. Then, it is the custom that the bone of a rooster head is given to her as an award. ‎ Obviously, the story is not true, but the festival is interesting.‎ 一个有趣的节日 农业盛会在独立日后举行。它不是一个世界性的庆典。由于它的宗教起源，只有墨西哥的基督教徒才期盼着节日的到来。‎ 很久以前，人类的祖先很坏，他们互相欺骗，耍诡计，从不遵守诺言。于是，上帝出现了，淹死了他们所有的庄稼。人们日夜挨饿，哭泣着。为了得到上帝的原谅，一位女诗人出发去见上帝。她赞美上帝并不停地道歉，上帝被感动了。有了他的允许，人类终于又获得了大丰收。因此，为了抹去忧伤并提醒自己对上帝的信仰，人们开始庆祝这个节日。‎ 在节日那天，人们聚集在露天场所，例如操场或停车场，通宵达旦地玩得非常开心，精力充沛的人们似乎不知疲倦。当一位穿着美丽衣服盛装打扮的美女朗读诗歌以纪念那位诗人时，在场的每个人都屏住了呼吸。然后，按照风俗，作为奖励给她一个公鸡的头骨。‎ 很明显，这个故事不是真的，但是节日却很有趣。‎ 加餐练(一)　完形阅读组合练 Ⅰ.完形填空 Walter felt trapped.

All have learning difficulties and some have extra disabilities.‎ The five are based in Adelaide, Australia, and met in 2010 when they sang together in a choir (合唱队) run by Tutti, an organization which supports disabled artists. Tutti saw they had talent and invited them to form a group. Now they perform together two or three times per month, and this is how they make a living.‎ Michelle is 25 and has cerebral palsy (脑瘫) and a mild learning disability. She says, “We choose the name The Sisters of Invention because we are like sisters and we support each other on and off stage. For the invention part, we are trying to change people's view of people with disabilities. We are reinventing the rules.”‎ All their songs are based on the members' own experiences and were written as a group in their twice weekly meetings at Tutti. “We would arrive in the morning and I'd say, ‘What do you want to talk about today？’” says their manager and producer Michael Ross. He then noted ‎ down everything they said until lyrics took shape. Ross says that putting “their truth” out there is important. He says, “What I'm interested in is that we get to see the world in a way that people in pop culture almost never get to see. It is creative gold.”‎ When they perform their songs, the physical side of their disabilities is more obvious, but Ross says, “They're not up there to show their barriers or difficulties. They're up there to show their strengths.‎ 语篇解读：本文为记叙文。五个有学习障碍的女孩组成了一支乐队，她们通过演出向人们展现自己的力量。‎ ‎1．What do we know about The Sisters of Invention?‎ A．All its members are disabled.‎ B．It was founded all by five girls.‎ C．It has existed for less than ten years.‎ D．They perform not in order to make money.‎ 解析：选A　细节理解题。由第二段“All have learning difficulties and some have extra disabilities.”可知，五个女孩都有学习障碍，有的还有别的残疾。‎ ‎2．The girls choose the name The Sisters of Invention because ________.‎ A．they all have great talent B．they help each other like sisters C．they have the same experiences D．they are good at inventing things 解析：选B　细节理解题。由第四段“...because we are like sisters and we support each other on and off stage.”可知，之所以给乐队起这个名字是因为五个成员亲如姐妹，互相支持。‎ ‎3．How does Michael Ross produce lyrics for The Sisters of Invention?‎ A．By talking with the girls.‎ B．By asking the girls questions.‎ C．By learning about pop culture.‎ D．By using his personal experiences.‎ 解析：选A　细节理解题。由第五段可知，制作人通过跟五个姐妹聊天，很自然地写出歌词。‎ ‎4．How do audiences probably feel watching the performances of The Sisters of Invention?‎ A．They will feel bored.‎ B．They will be inspired.‎ C．They will feel disappointed.‎ D．They will have pity on them.‎ 解析：选B　推理判断题。分析最后一段可知，尽管五个姐妹在演出时残疾暴露得更明显，但她们意在向人们展现自己的力量。‎ 加餐练(二)　第Ⅱ卷规范增分练 Ⅰ.语法填空 Both the British and Americans like playing football. However, they play it quite __1__ (different). For most Americans, British football, also __2__ (know) as soccer, is a bit dull and boring.‎ American football is not like soccer. The ball is not round. It is like a big egg. Each team __3__ (make) up of eleven players. All the players can touch the ball with both __4__ (foot) and hands. Players sometimes kick the ball, __5__ they often throw the ball and run with it. If they can move it across the opposing team's goal line, they can get six points, __6__ is called a touchdown.‎ ‎__7__ is not easy to move the ball. Eleven men in the opposing team do all they can __8__ (stop) the man with the ball.

Whenever an important game is played, thousands of people come to watch it, __10__ (cheer) for their favorite teams.‎ ‎1．differently　空格中所填单词在句中修饰动词play，需用different的副词形式。‎ ‎2．known　“known as soccer”是过去分词短语作后置定语，修饰“British football”。‎ ‎3．is made　be made up of是固定短语，意思是“由……组成”，这里说的是一般性情况，用一般现在时。‎ ‎4．feet　这里指的是运动员的双脚，故用foot的复数形式。‎ ‎5．but　前后两句意义上存在转折关系，用but连接。‎ ‎6．which　关系代词which指代前面整个主句内容，引导非限制性定语从句，其中关系代词which在句中作主语。‎ ‎7．It　It在句中作形式主语，真正的主语是后面的不定式短语。‎ ‎8．to stop　do all one can to do sth.意思是“尽一切可能做某事”。‎ ‎9．fails　主句是将来时，条件状语从句用一般现在时。‎ ‎10．cheering　“cheering for their favorite teams”是现在分词短语作状语，表示伴随或方式，分词动作与逻辑主语people之间是主谓关系。‎ Ⅱ.应用文写作 假设你是李华。你远在美国的笔友Jack对中国的春节很感兴趣，他来信询问有关情况。请你给他回一封电子邮件，简单介绍春节及中国人是如何过春节的。内容应包括如下要点：‎ ‎1．春节在中国的地位；‎ ‎2．春节持续的时间、春节来临前及期间人们的活动；‎ ‎3．你对春节的态度。‎ 注意：1.可适当发挥使行文连贯，词数80左右；‎ ‎2．开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数。‎ 参考词汇：春节联欢晚会Spring Festival Gala Evening Dear Jack，‎ Thanks for your email. I'm glad to tell you something about China's Spring Festival.‎ ‎________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎________________________________________________________________________‎ How do you like the Spring Festival?

It's where I have my computer and some books and research stuff. The kitchen is large. I have everything because I enjoy cooking. It relaxes me after a hard day at work. I'm thinking of buying a new bigger fridge because my fridge is too small, and because it's in the country I can't do shopping as often. By the time I get out of work, most of the shops around here are closed. The shower room and the bathroom are separated. There is a washing machine in my bathroom. I can't live without it.‎ I'm having a housewarming party this Sunday. Welcome to join it! ‎ 第二部分　阅读理解　(满分35分，限时30分钟)‎ 第一节(共10小题；每小题2.5分，满分25分)‎ 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。‎ A Although environmental problems have existed for centuries, some people still care little about our environment. Problems like ice melting, electronic waste are lighting up news programs and becoming part of an ongoing dialogue about the environment.‎ As a teenager, what do you think all the problems mean for your future and for the future of the planet? For our October 2016 writing contest, we want you to really consider what you think about environmental problems.‎ Use these questions to help focus your essay (文章)‎ ‎■What environmental problem do you think should cause the greatest alarm and action?‎ ‎■Do you think that you have a personal responsibility to help solve environmental problems or do you feel helpless against the struggle?‎ ‎■What do you think could help a specific environmental problem?‎ Don't try to answer all these questions. Use one of them to make a personal essay.‎ The title of the essay When you hand in your essay, title it as: Environmental Problems：________. Include the ‎ phrase “Environmental Problems” as the beginning of your essay title, but then make the rest of your story title unique. Examples：‎ ‎■Environmental Problems: Trashy Behavior and the Plastic Bottle ‎■Environmental Problems: We Can't Exist If We Refuse to Change Rules：‎ ‎(1)This is a nonfiction essay contest.‎ ‎(2)Essays are 500 words or less.‎ ‎(3)Essays must be your original work.‎ The deadline：‎ Midnight Oct.30, 2016‎ Results：‎ The winner will be posted on our writing contest website or on Teen Trend Report after Nov.26, 2016.‎ ‎21．What is the text mainly about?‎ A．How to write an essay.‎ B．How to protect our planet.‎ C．October 2016 writing contest.‎ D．Some environmental problems.‎ 解析：选C　主旨大意题。由第二段“For our October 2016 writing contest ... environmental problems.”可知，本文主要是介绍一个写作比赛的相关事宜。‎ ‎22．Which of the following essays will be accepted?‎ A．A 300word essay taken from the newspaper.‎ B．A 400word essay on air pollution.‎ C．A 500word essay full of imagination.‎ D．A 600word essay on plastic bottles.‎ 解析：选B　细节理解题。由Rules中的要求可知，投稿不能是虚构的，字数要在500词以内，且必须为原创。由此可知，只有B项符合要求。‎ ‎23．How can one know the result of the contest?‎ A．By sending an email.‎ B．By visiting the website.‎ C．By calling the organizer.‎ D．By reading a scientific report.‎ 解析：选B　细节理解题。由最后一段可知，比赛结果将会公布在写作比赛网站及Teen Trend Report上。‎ B Are you bad at math? If you answer yes, consider this question: Are you bad at math because you didn't study hard enough to learn the material or because you lack the ability to be good at it?‎ As it turns out, many children believe that they don't do well on math tests because they're intellectually incapable (无能的) of understanding the material. They have no reason to try harder, thus trapping them in a state of being bad at math.‎ Educators Miles Kimball and Noah Smith argue that this is a big problem, “Math is the great mental subject of an unconfident America. If we can convince you that anyone can learn math, it should be a short step to convincing you that you can learn just about anything, if you work hard enough.”‎ Psychologist Carol Dweck took on the task of convincing a group of students that if they worked hard they could become smarter. The truly remarkable part of that study was not that the kids improved and earned higher grades; it was that Dweck noted that a few of the tough boys in the group were brought to tears, learning that the level of intelligence they could reach was limitless — it was entirely up to them.‎ Of course, not all of us will become genius mathematicians, but the majority of us can become skilled and maybe even good at math. As Mashable points out, while dyscalculia (计算障碍), a math disability, is a real thing, only 6 percent of the population is likely to have it. For the rest of us, it's a confidence problem, or a lack of belief that with hard work, we'll improve. Thankfully, we now know better, and we can pass on that_information to the next generation.‎ 语篇解读：本文为说明文。研究人员认为智力是可以依靠后天的努力加以改善的，只要勤奋，每一个人都能把数学学好。‎ ‎24．Many people don't work hard at math because they think that ________.‎ A．their intelligence is high B．math is not worth learning C．it's useless to put in the effort D．they have understood the material 解析：选C　推理判断题。由第二段“...because they're intellectually incapable of understanding the material. They have no reason to try harder ...”可推知，他们认为自己智力不行，努力也没有用。‎ ‎25．According to Miles Kimball and Noah Smith, ________.‎ A．math is a big problem to deal with B．most Americans don't like math at all C．math is an important subject at school D．one can learn anything as long as he works hard 解析：选D　细节理解题。由第三段“...that you can learn just about anything, if you work hard enough”可知，他们认为只要足够努力，人们什么都能学(好)。‎ ‎26．What does the underlined part “that information” refer to?‎ A．Math disability doesn't really exist.‎ B．Everyone is likely to learn math well.‎ C．Math cannot be ignored at any time.‎ D．Confidence is important in one's life.‎ 解析：选B　判断推理题。由最后一段“For the rest of us, it's a confidence problem, or a lack of belief that with hard work, we'll improve.”可推知，that information指的是“每一个人都可能学好数学”。‎ C Last year my wife and I spent a most interesting month in Turkey. Before we left, we were reminded of the difficulties of driving in Turkey. We certainly did not find this to be the case and, except for a few places in faraway mountain areas, the roads were wide, and wellpaved (铺设). We drove for 12 days along the Western Coast of Turkey and had no problems at all. We found the Turkish drivers to be very polite and well educated. We also found that eating lunch in the smaller towns was difficult, so we picnicked almost every day.‎ The following day after our arrival was Turkey's Children's Day, started by Mustafa Kemal Ataturk. Ataturk loved children and he often said：“Children are a new beginning of tomorrow.” He even dedicated (奉献) the day 23rd of April to the children which is celebrated as Children's Day.‎ On that day certain children are picked to take over the places of the government, and a lucky kid will be the president of Turkey for a whole day.
