2020届一轮复习人教版必修三Unit5Canada-the True North单元学案 单元话题阅读 Canada is the second largest country in the world after Russia.It is larger than the USA and reaches nearly a quarter of the way round the earth.The distance from east to west is over 5,500 kilometres and the country covers six of the world's 24 time zones.However, its population, about 33.8 million, is only about onefifth of Russia's.Nearly 90% of Canadians live within 200 km of the border with the United States, which means that Canada contains vast expanses (宽阔的区域) of wilderness to the north.Canada's native peoples make up less than two percent of the population. The weather is different from area to area.In the north, the winters are long and hard, with snow for six months of the year.The temperature can fall to -60℃.The west coast of Canada is the warmest place in winter.The average January temperature is 3℃, and in July it is 18℃.Here it rains a lot every month of the year.Plants grow well all the year round and the parks and gardens are famous for their flowers. Canada has one third of the world's supply of fresh water.There are five great lakes in the south, and there are many others, especially in the north.Most of the electricity is produced by water.The country has a great deal of coal, oil and natural gas, and these are all exploited (开发) for energy. Section_Ⅰ Warming Up & Reading — Prereading [原文呈现] A TRIP ON “THE TRUE NORTH①” Li Daiyu and her cousin Liu Qian were on a trip to② Canada to visit their cousins in Montreal on the Atlantic coast③.Rather than④ take the aeroplane all the way, they decided to fly to Vancouver and then take the train from west to east across Canada.The thought ⑤that they could cross the whole continent⑥ was exciting. Their friend, Danny Lin, was waiting at the airport.He was going to take them and their baggage⑦ to catch “The True North”, the crossCanada train.On the way to the station, he chatted⑧ about their trip.“You're going to see some great scenery⑨.⑩Going eastward⑪, you'll pass mountains and thousands of lakes and forests, as well as wide rivers and large cities.Some people have the idea that you can cross Canada in less than five days, but they forget the fact that Canada is 5,500 kilometres from coast to coast.Here in Vancouver, you're in Canada's warmest part.People say it is Canada's most beautiful city, surrounded⑫ by mountains and the Pacific Ocean⑬.Skiing in the Rocky Mountains and sailing in the harbour⑭ make Vancouver one of Canada's most popular cities to live in⑮.Its population is increasing rapidly.The coast north of Vancouver has some of the oldest and most beautiful forests in the world.It is so wet there that the trees are extremely tall, some measuring⑯ over 90 metres.⑰” [读文清障] ①THE TRUE NORTH有两个含义:一是它的本义“真正的北方”,即加拿大是地球上最北端的国家之一;二是指横贯加拿大东西部的一列火车的名字。 ②be on a trip to去某地旅行(表状态) go on a trip to去某地旅行(表动作) ③on the Atlantic coast在大西洋海岸上 ④rather than与其;不愿,连接两个并列成分;rather than位于句首时,其后跟不带to的不定式。 ⑤that引导同位语从句,说明thought的具体内容。 ⑥continent/'kɒntInənt/n.洲;大陆 ⑦baggage/'bæɡIdʒ/n.行李 luggage n.行李 “一件行李”用a piece of baggage/luggage表示。 ⑧chat/tʃæt/vi.&n.聊天;闲聊 chat with sb.(=have a chat with sb.)与某人聊天 ⑨scenery/'siːnərI/n.景色;风景 指一个地区总的自然风光,可能包括多个scene。 ⑩现在分词短语going eastward作伴随或方式状语。 ⑪eastward/'iːstwəd/adv.向东 adj.向东的;朝东的 eastward也作eastwards,注意不能说go to eastward。 ⑫surround/sə'raʊnd/vt.包围;围绕 be surrounded by被……包围/围绕 ⑬过去分词短语surrounded by ...作定语,修饰city,相当于一个非限制性定语从句。 ⑭harbour/'hɑːbə/n.(=harbor)海港 in the harbour在海港 ⑮one of Canada's most popular cities to live in加拿大最受欢迎的居住城市之一,作宾语补足语。此处to live in作定语,修饰cities。 ⑯measure/'meʒə/v.测量;衡量;判定n.计量制;计量单位;措施 ⑰It is so ...that ..., some measuring ...是主从复合句,so ...that“如此……以至于”,引导结果状语从句;some measuring ...是独立主格结构,补充说明extremely tall。 “真北方”之旅 [第1~2段译文] 李黛予和她的表妹刘倩要去加拿大大西洋海岸的蒙特利尔市看望她们的表兄妹。她们不想一路乘飞机,而决定先飞到温哥华,再从西海岸乘火车横穿加拿大到达东海岸。要横贯整个大陆的想法很是令人兴奋。 她们的朋友林丹尼正在机场等候她们。他要带着她们和她们的行李去乘坐横越加拿大的“真北方”号列车。在去火车站的路上,他聊起了她们的旅程。“你们将会看到一些美丽壮阔的风景。一路向东行,你们会经过一座座山脉,上千个湖泊、森林,还有宽阔的河流和许多大城市。有人想在不到5天的时间里穿越加拿大,但是他们忘了加拿大从东海岸到西海岸共有5 500千米的事实。这儿,温哥华,是加拿大最温暖的地方。人们说它(温哥华)是加拿大最美丽的城市,被大山和太平洋环绕。在落基山脉可以滑雪,海港供你们扬帆,这些使得温哥华成为加拿大最受欢迎的居住城市之一。这个城市的人口增长很快。在温哥华北面的海岸上保存着一些世界上最古老、最美丽的森林。那儿湿度很大,所以树长得特别高,一些经测量高达90多米。” That afternoon aboard the train⑱, the cousins settled down⑲ in their seats.Earlier that day, when they crossed the Rocky Mountains, they managed to⑳ catch sight of○21 some mountain goats and even a grizzly bear○22 and an eagle○23.Their next stop was Calgary, which is famous for the Calgary Stampede○24.Cowboys○25 from all over the world come to compete in the Stampede.Many of them have a gift for○26 riding wild horses and can win thousands of dollars in prizes. After two days' travel, the girls began to realize that Canada is quite empty.At school, they had learned that most Canadians live within○27 a few hundred kilometres of the USA border○28, and that Canada's population is only slightly○29 over thirty million, but now they were amazed to see○30 such an empty country.They went through○31 a wheatgrowing province and saw farms that covered thousands of acres○32.After dinner, they were back in an urban○33 area, the busy port city of Thunder Bay○34 at the top of the Great Lakes.The girls were surprised at the fact that ocean ships can sail up○35 the Great Lakes○36.Because of the Great Lakes, they learned, Canada has more fresh water than any other country in the world○37.In fact, it has onethird of the world's total fresh water, and much of it is in the Great Lakes. That night as they slept○38, the train rushed across○39 the top of Lake Superior, through the great forests and southward towards Toronto. ⑱aboard the train(介词短语)登上火车 aboard/ə'bɔːd/prep.&adv.在(船、飞机、火车或公共汽车)上;上(船、飞机、火车等) ⑲settle down定居;平静下来;专心于 ⑳manage to do设法做 manage vt.努力;设法;经营;管理;控制 try to do努力做(不一定成功) ○21catch sight of看见;瞥见 ○22grizzly bear灰熊 ○23eagle/'iːɡl/n.鹰 ○24stampede/stæm'piːd/n.大西部赛马会 ○25cowboy/'kaʊbɔI/n.牛仔;牧童 ○26have a gift for有……天赋 ○27within/wI'ðIn/prep.在……之内 既可以指时间,也可以指空间。 ○28border/'bɔːdə/n.边界;国界;边沿vt.&vi与……接壤;接近 on the border of接近;临近 ○29slightly/'slaItlI/adv.稍稍;轻微地 ○30be amazed to see惊讶地看到 ○31go through在此处意为“穿过”,还作“经历;遭受;仔细检查;完成”讲。 ○32acre/'eIkə/n.英亩 ○33urban/'ɜːbən/adj.城市的;市镇的 rural adj.农村的;田园的 ○34Thunder/'θʌndə/Bay桑德湾 ○35sail up沿……向上游航行 ○36that引导同位语从句,说明fact的具体内容。 ○37Canada has more ...than any other ...中比较级表达最高级含义。 ○38as they slept是as引导的时间状语从句。 ○39across表示在物体表面上穿过,强调横向跨过,从一端到另一端。through则强调在一个有障碍的空间里穿过。 [第3~5段译文] 那天下午表姐妹俩登上火车落了座。那天早些时候,当她们穿越落基山脉时,她们总算看到了一些野山羊,甚至还看到了一只灰熊和一只鹰。她们的下一站是卡尔加里,这个城市因“大西部赛马会”而闻名。来自世界各地的牛仔们来参加赛马会比赛。他们中许多人都有骑野马的才能,他们能赢得几千美元的奖金。 两天的旅行以后,这两个女孩开始意识到加拿大人烟稀少。她们在学校就已经学过,大多数 加拿大人居住在靠近美国几百千米以内的边境地带,加拿大的人口也只有三千万多一点儿。但是现在看到这么空旷的国家,她们很惊讶。她们穿过一个种植小麦的省份,看到了面积有数千英亩的农场。晚饭后,她们又回到城市,位于五大湖区最北端的繁忙的港口城市——桑德湾。海轮可以航行到五大湖,让表姐妹俩感到吃惊。她们知道,因为五大湖,加拿大的淡水比世界上任何其他国家都要多。事实上,加拿大拥有全世界总淡水量的三分之一,其中大部分都蓄在五大湖里。 那天夜里她们睡着了,火车越过苏必利尔湖北部,穿过大森林,朝南向多伦多飞驰着。 Prereading Please match the words with their proper meanings. 1.continent A.聊天;闲聊 2.chat B.洲;大陆 3.scenery C.测量;衡量;判定 4.surround D.景色;风景 5.measure E.包围;围绕 6.aboard F.边界;国界 7.within G.向东(的) 8.border H.在(船、飞机、火车或公共汽车)上; 上(船、飞机、火车等) 9.baggage I.在……之内 10.eastward J.行李 1~5__________ 6~10__________ 答案:1~5 BADEC 6~10 HIFJG Leadin 1.Which is the national flag of Canada? 2.Which is the national flower of Canada? 3.Which is the capital city of Canada? 4.Which is the national animal of Canada? 答案:1~4 ACDA Whilereading Fastreading Match the main idea with the proper paragraph.

Montreal, the second largest city in Canada, is a fourhour drive from my home in New Hampshire.We felt a thrill as we crossed the border into Canada.It was the first time I had ever driven across an international border.We turned on the radio to try and find some Canadian stations. After dropping off our bags at our hotel, we were immediately walking down the famous St Catherine's Street.While we walked, two things surprised us: how cold it was and how well everyone dressed.The streets of Montreal are like a fashion show.Both_men_and_women_look_like_they_stepped_out_of_the_pages_of_a_magazine. All of that fashion has to keep them warm since Montreal is so cold.Last year it broke the record for the most snowfall in North America.To hide from the cold we went into a small diner because we wanted to order Poutine, a very popular snack in Montreal.It is French fries covered in cheese and brown gravy (肉汁).It is delicious. However, we had a hard time ordering the dish since the official language of Montreal is French.It is actually the fifth largest Frenchspeaking city in the world.But since the rest of Canada speak English, plenty of people were there to help. We spent the rest of the weekend going to many historical churches and monuments in Montreal.But at night we'd head to the very modern dance clubs and bars.Montreal is a city that sits between the past and the future and the traveller can choose whichever direction he wants to go. 语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者在加拿大蒙特利尔的经历。那里寒冷的天气、人们入时的服装、美食、著名历史景点等都给作者留下了深刻的印象。 4.How do you understand the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3?

The first Europeans to reach Canada were the Vikings.In 986 a Viking called Bjarni Herjolfsson was blown off course by a storm and he spotted a new land.However he sailed away without landing.In 1001 a man named Leif Eriksson landed in the new land, which he named Vinland (it was part of Canada).However Eriksson did not stay permanently.Later the Vikings did establish a colony (殖民地) in North America but they abandoned it because of conflict with the natives. However after the Vikings Canada was forgotten until the end of the 15th century.In 1497 the English king Henry Ⅶ sent an Italian named John Cabot on an expedition across the Atlantic to Newfoundland.Cabot discovered rich fishing waters off the coast of Canada. Then in 1534 and in 1535-1536 a Frenchman named Jacques Cartier (1491-1557) sailed on two expeditions to Canada.On 10 August 1535 (St Lawrence's Day) he sailed into the St Lawrence River, which he named after the saint. However no permanent European settlements were made in Canada until the early 17th century.In 1603 a Frenchman named Samuel de Champlain (1567-1635) sailed up the St Lawrence River.In 1604 he founded Port Royal in Acadia (Nova Scotia).In 1608 Samuel de Champlain founded Quebec.(The name Quebec is believed to be an Algonquin word meaning a narrow part of a river).In 1642 the French founded Montreal.The new colony in Canada was called New France.By 1685 the population of New France was about 10,000.By 1740 it was 48,000. 语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了加拿大人口的构成及城市的逐渐形成。 8.In which part of Canada did people grow crops?

But of course, diet is important, too.__3__ They eat some meat, but they don't eat any fat from the meat.And they eat seaweed (海藻).This is good for the heart. The Mediterranean diet is very healthy, too.It includes vegetables, tomatoes, fish, beans, cheese and rice.__4__ It comes from olive oil and from fish. So, what do these two diets tell us? •Don't eat any bad fats — like fats in sweets, fried food and meat. •Eat healthy vegetables, fruit, potatoes and rice. •__5__ If you use oil, use a good one like olive oil.And avoid deepfried food! •If you're a little hungry, eat an apple or a carrot — not a bag of potato chips! Eat well, live an active and stressfree life, and you'll live a long time. A.But how can we do it? B.The fat in this diet is “good fat”. C.Be active and do exercise every day.

They saw the covered stadium, home of⑮ several famous basketball teams.As they walked north from the harbour area⑯, Li Daiyu said, “Lin Fei, one of my mother's old schoolmates⑰, lives here.I should phone her from a telephone booth⑱.” They met Lin Fei around dusk in downtown⑲ Chinatown, one of the three in Toronto.Over dinner⑳ at a restaurant called The Pink Pearl○21, the cousins chatted with Lin Fei, who had moved to Canada many years earlier.“We can get good Cantonese○22 food here,” Lin Fei told them, “because most of the Chinese people here come from South China, especially Hong Kong.It's too bad you can't go as far as○23 Ottawa, Canada's capital.It's approximately○24 four hundred kilometres northeast of Toronto, so it would take too long.” [读文清障] ①bush/bʊʃ/n.灌木(丛); 矮树(丛) ②maple/'meIpl/n.枫;枫树 ③frost/frɒst/n.霜;霜冻 ④confirm/kən'fɜːm/vt.证实;证明;批准 ⑤fall[美]=autumn[英]秋天 ⑥现在分词短语confirming that ...作状语。 ⑦wealthy/'welθI/adj.富有的 ⑧the biggest and most wealthy city in Canada是Toronto的同位语。 ⑨go on a tour of游览…… ⑩CN Tower (Canada National Tower)加拿大国家塔 ⑪in the distance在远处 distance/'dIstəns/n.距离;远方 ⑫misty/'mIstI/adj.有薄雾的;模糊的 mist/mIst/n.薄雾 ⑬Niagara/naI'æɡərə/n.尼亚加拉(河;瀑布) ⑭the Niagara River尼亚加拉河 ⑮covered是过去分词作前置定语,意为“覆盖的”,即“加了顶的”。home of ...作stadium的同位语。 ⑯As they walked ...是as引导的时间状语从句。 ⑰schoolmate/'skuːlmeIt/n.同学;校友 ⑱booth/buːθ/n.公用电话间;货摊;售货亭 ⑲downtown/ˌdaʊn'taʊn/adj.市区的adv.在市区;往市区 ⑳over dinner=during dinner吃饭期间;用餐时 ○21过去分词短语called The Pink Pearl作后置定语,修饰restaurant。 ○22Cantonese/ˌkæntə'niːz/n.&adj.广东人(的);广州人(的);广东话(的) ○23as far as达到……,和……一样远 ○24approximately/ə'prɒksImətlI/adv.接近;大约 用于数字之前,相当于about。 多伦多—蒙特利尔的“真北方”号列车 [第1~4段译文] 第二天早上,在她们的车窗外到处是灌木丛和枫树,挂满朱红、赤金和橘黄色的叶子,地面上覆盖了一层薄霜,表明秋天已经来到了加拿大。 中午时分,她们到达了多伦多——加拿大最大、最富有的城市。她们要晚些时候才动身去蒙特利尔,因此她们就在多伦多市内游览了一番。她们登上了高高的加拿大国家塔,俯瞰着下面的湖水。在远处,她们可以看到在湖的南边尼亚加拉大瀑布上方升腾着的雾霭。湖水流入尼亚加拉河,再经过大瀑布,流向大海。 她们看到了加顶的大型运动场,那是几支著名的篮球队的驻地。当她们从港口区向北走的时候,李黛予说:“我妈妈的一个老同学林菲住在这里,我该到电话亭去给她打个电话。” 黄昏时分,她们在市区的中国城见到了林菲,这是多伦多三个中国城中的一个。在一个名叫“海珠酒楼”的餐馆里用餐时,表姐妹和许多年前就移居加拿大的林菲闲聊了起来。林菲告诉她们:“我们在这里可以吃到可口的广东菜,因为这里的大多数中国人来自中国南方,尤其是香港。很可惜你们不能一直走到加拿大的首都渥太华。它在多伦多东北方约400千米处,因此要去那儿花的时间就太多了。” The train left late that night and arrived in Montreal at dawn○25 the next morning.At the station, people everywhere were speaking French.There were signs and ads in French, but some of them had English words in smaller letters.“We don't leave until this evening,” said Liu Qian.“Let's go downtown.Old Montreal is close to the water.” They spent the afternoon in lovely shops and visiting artists○26 in their workplaces○27 beside the water.As they sat in a buffet○28 restaurant looking over the broad○29 St Lawrence River○30, a young man sat down with them○31. “Hello, my name is Henri.I'm a student at the university nearby○32,” he said, “and I was wondering where you are from○33.” The girls told him they were on a train trip across Canada and that they had only one day in Montreal○34.“That's too bad,” he said.“Montreal is a city with wonderful restaurants and clubs.Most of us speak both English and French, but the city has French culture and traditions○35.We love good coffee, good bread and good music.” That night as the train was speeding○36 along the St Lawrence River toward the Gulf of St Lawrence and down to the distant east coast, the cousins dreamed of○37 French restaurants and red maple leaves. ○25at dawn黎明时分 dawn/dɔːn/n.黎明;拂晓;破晓 ○26visiting前省略了介词in。本句含句式:spend+时间+(in)doing。 ○27workplace/'wɜːkpleIs/n.工作场所;工作地点 ○28buffet/'bʊfeI/n.自助餐;饮食柜台 ○29broad/brɔːd/adj.宽阔的;广泛的 broad着重指幅面的宽广;wide着重指从一边到另一边的距离。 board/bɔːd/n.板,木板;董事会v.上(船、飞机、火车等) ○30St Lawrence/'seInt'lɒrəns/River圣劳伦斯河 ○31As they sat ...looking over ..., as引导时间状语从句,从句中现在分词短语looking over ...作伴随状语。 ○32nearby/'nIəbaI/adv.在附近adj.附近的;邻近的 nearby既可作前置定语,也可作后置定语。 ○33where引导宾语从句,作wondering的宾语。 ○34told后跟了两个宾语从句,第一个that在him后,被省略了。 ○35tradition/trə'dIʃn/n.传统;风俗 by tradition按照传统 in the tradition of沿袭……的传统 ○36speed v.加速,促进n.速度 ○37dream of梦到;想到 [第5~7段译文] 火车在那一夜的晚些时候起程了,第二天黎明时分到达了蒙特利尔。在火车站,人们到处说的是法语。指示牌和广告也都是法文的,但有些标注了小字体的英文。刘倩说:“我们要到傍晚才动身,不如到市区去走走。蒙特利尔老区是在水边上的。”整个下午她们穿梭于布局可爱的商店中,还拜访了水边工作坊里的艺术家们。当她们坐在一家自助餐厅里眺望广阔的圣劳伦斯河时,一个年轻人坐到了她们的身边。 “你们好,我叫亨利,是附近的大学生。”他说道,“我想知道你们从哪儿来?”姑娘们告诉他,她们是坐火车来旅游的,要横穿加拿大,在蒙特利尔只待一天。他说:“这太糟糕了,蒙特利尔这座城市有极好的餐馆和俱乐部。我们大多数人既讲英语又讲法语,但是这座城市具有法国文化和传统。我们喜欢醇厚的咖啡、好吃的面包和优美动听的音乐。” 那天晚上,火车沿着圣劳伦斯河疾驰,朝圣劳伦斯湾驶去,一直开到远方的东海岸,表姐妹梦到了法国餐馆和红色枫叶。 Step 1 True (T) or False (F). 1.Lin Fei was a Chinese who had moved to Canada many years ago.( ) 2.They arrived in Montreal late that night.( ) 3.Toronto is the wealthiest city in Canada.( ) 答案:1.T 2.F 3.T Step 2 Choose the best answers according to the text. 1.What is the main idea of this part?

A sense of being controlled is felt by the capital's car owners.Anne Hidalgo, the Socialist mayor of Paris, is starting “a war against cars”. As part of the city hall's plan to increase the share of trips taken by bicycle from 5% to 15% by 2020, protected cycling lanes are being lengthened along some of the city's main roads.A whole road on the busy Rue de Rivoli is being changed into a twoway bike route.The left bank's road was closed to cars in 2013, six years after the city made a bikesharing plan. “Paris is not anticar, but antipollution”, says JeanLouis Missika, the head of planning at city hall.Pollution levels in the city are especially high.With its narrow streets, the government is trying its best to reduce (减少) cars that do not carry passengers.Fully 80% of cars running in central Paris carry only one person, and 79% of those on its roads are privately owned.BlaBlaCar, a French ridesharing startup, recently introduced BlaBlaLines, a new app produced to help people who travel to and from work share cars. The war against cars started by Ms Hidalgo is also a rethink of how the city should start an age that will be shaped by electric cars and driverless transport.“It will be as great as the change from horsedrawn carriages (马车) to cars,” says Mr Missika.He expects to see the first driverless sixperson taxis in Paris next year, and says that city hall will ban (禁止) privately owned cars in the centre by 2025-2030. 语篇解读:本文是说明文。巴黎采取一系列措施限制汽车的使用,鼓励人们骑自行车或者拼车出行。这些举措旨在解决巴黎的环境污染问题。 1.What does Paragraph 1 try to show? A.The modern life of Paris. B.The heavy traffic in Paris. C.The great scenery of Paris. D.The reduction of cars in Paris. 解析:选D 推理判断题。由第一段中的两处对比可知,巴黎的车流量大大减少。 2.Why have some actions mentioned in Paragraph 3 been taken? A.To avoid car accidents. B.To encourage bike riding. C.To make people live a comfortable life. D.To show the importance of public transport. 解析:选B 推理判断题。由第三段中的“increase the share of trips taken by bicycle”和“protected cycling lanes are being lengthened”以及“is being changed into a twoway bike route”可推断,这些举措主要是为了鼓励人们骑自行车。 3.What is the government doing to reduce pollution according to Paragraph 4? A.It has closed some narrow streets. B.It has banned privately owned cars. C.It discourages cars without passengers. D.It encourages public transport journeys. 解析:选C 细节理解题。由第四段中的“the government is trying its best to reduce (减少) cars that do not carry passengers”可知答案。 4.What is Mr Missika's attitude toward the war against cars? A.He is uncertain about it.B.He has high hopes for it. C.He is against it. D.He doubts it. 解析:选B 推理判断题。由最后一段中的“It will be as great as the change from horsedrawn carriages (马车) to cars”和“He expects to see the first driverless sixperson taxis”以及“ban (禁止) privately owned cars”可推断,Mr Missika支持禁止汽车的举措。 Ⅱ.语法填空 A young man, while traveling through a desert, came across a spring of clear water.__1__ water was sweet.He filled his leather container so that he could bring some back to an elder __2__ had been his teacher.After a fourday journey, the young man __3__ (present) the water to the old man.His teacher took a deep drink, smile __4__ (warm), and thanked his student very much for the sweet water.The young man went home __5__ a happy heart.

In_short,_what_a_fascinating_city_Xiamen_is! As an exchange student, I had a chance to enjoy the beautiful scenery and rich traditions of Canada last year.I was deeply impressed with them. Canada borders America in the south and its population is only slightly over thirty million.Canada has also rich natural resources, such as fresh water and wood.It is a mixture of cultures and races. It took me approximately seven days to travel across the continent from west to east.After settling down in Montreal, I began my journey with little baggage aboard the train rather than the aeroplane.On the train, I chatted with other passengers while enjoying the scenery along the way.I saw many mountains, lakes, and forests, where some trees measure over 90 meters.I also arrived at Vancouver, surrounded by mountains and water, where I skied in the mountain and sailed in the harbour.In the Rocky Mountain, I managed to catch sight of some mountain goats and even an eagle in the distance.Going eastward, I arrived at Calgary, where I took part in the Calgary Stampede.Unfortunately, I didn't have a gift for riding horses and narrowly fell off it, but I didn't feel terrified.On the contrary, I felt very pleased.At last, I arrived at Toronto, the biggest and most wealthy city, and went downtown, buying some souvenirs.I had a good time! 作为一名交流生,去年我有机会欣赏了加拿大的美丽风景和丰富的传统。它们给我留下了深刻的印象。 加拿大在南部与美国接壤,它的人口有三千万稍多。加拿大有着丰富的自然资源,如淡水和木头。它是一个文化和种族的混合体。 我花了大约七天的时间从西向东游览了这块大陆。在蒙特利尔安顿好后,我就带着行李坐火车而不是飞机开始了我的旅程。在火车上欣赏沿途美丽景色的同时,我与其他乘客聊天。我看见了很多山、湖泊和森林,在森林里有些树木高达90多米。我也到达了温哥华,这是一个被山水环绕的城市。在那里我在山上滑雪,在港口乘船。在落基山脉,我还设法看到了远处的野山羊,甚至还有一只鹰。继续往东走,我到达了卡尔加里,在这里我参加了“卡尔加里牧人竞技会”。遗憾的是,我没有骑马的天赋,差点从马上摔下来,但我没有感到害怕。相反地我感到非常高兴。最后,我到达了多伦多,这是加拿大最大、最富有的城市,我去市区买了一些纪念品。我过得非常愉快! 加餐练(一) 完形阅读组合练 Ⅰ.完形填空 One day I was walking home.Suddenly, a man came up to me, __1__, shouting, “Gil!

He expressed that he'd made amends (补偿) to those he had __11__ and opened his eyes to all who had always showed him __12__ and love.He then __13__ me again very tightly and with tears in his eyes said that I'd changed his life and he would be forever __14__.We exchanged numbers and then he was gone, __15__ to stay in touch with me.I didn't remember this man but I'll definitely __16__ him. I tell this __17__ because when it comes to kindness, it often happens from complete __18__ who kindly confirm our very existence with just a few words when they're only saying thank you.It's my __19__ that we as human beings should help and encourage each other and by __20__ it, we'll create more new threads in life that bind (绑) us all. 语篇解读:本文为夹叙夹议文,回家途中一个曾经听过作者演讲的人激动地走上来打招呼,热情地向作者表示感谢。 1.A.surprised B.annoyed C.excited D.embarrassed 解析:选C 由本空后shouting及“he grabbed me in a bear hug”可知,此人很激动。 2.A.no B.yes C.sorry D.OK 解析:选B 由“to which he grabbed me in a bear hug”可知,此人并没有认错作者,即作者名字就叫Gil Gadson,故他回答yes。 3.A.pleasure B.worry C.disappointment D.confusion 解析:选D 由下文“I didn't remember this man”可知,作者记不起这位此时大声叫自己的人,所以脸上带着困惑的表情。 4.A.knew B.noticed C.trusted D.wanted 解析:选A 由下文语境可判断此处意为他如何认识作者。 5.A.seldom B.almost C.often D.never 解析:选C 认识作者的人很多,因为他经常在不同的地方演讲,由此语境可判断选C项。 6.A.analysis B.speech C.comment D.lesson 解析:选B 由上文“speak at different places”的提示可判断,此处指作者做了一次有关感恩的力量的演讲。 7.A.behaviors B.facts C.objections D.words 解析:选D 他听了作者的演讲之后其生活发生了变化,即作者的话改变了他的生活。 8.A.lived B.continued C.passed D.helped 解析:选B 由sharing可判断此处意为他继续往下讲。 9.A.preserving B.doubting C.appreciating D.considering 解析:选C 由空后的“had become active in his life and for others”可判断,作者的演讲使此人发生了好的转变,由此可判断他是开始感激、欣赏自己拥有的东西。 10.A.sorry B.ready C.thankful D.anxious 解析:选A 既然是好的转变,就是不再为自己感到难过了。 11.A.taught B.punished C.met D.hurt 解析:选D 由“made amends”可推断,此处指他伤害过的人。 12.A.curiosity B.kindness C.warmth D.strength 解析:选B 由“and love”可推断此空应与love相匹配。 13.A.touched B.caught C.hugged D.held 解析:选C 由第一段“to which he grabbed me in a bear hug”中hug的提示,再结合空后的“again”可判断选C项。 14.A.grateful B.cheerful C.hopeful D.careful 解析:选A 由“I'd changed his life”可知,作者改变了他的生活,所以他对作者非常感激。 15.A.agreeing B.trying C.offering D.promising 解析:选D 由“We exchanged numbers”可推断,他走的时候许诺会与作者联系。 16.A.forget B.visit C.call D.invite 解析:选C 由上文“We exchanged numbers”可推断,此处应指作者以后会打电话给他。 17.A.story B.thought C.adventure D.event 解析:选A 此空应指上文讲述的故事。 18.A.colleagues B.friends C.families D.strangers 解析:选D 由上文的例子可知,生活当中kindness通常来自我们不认识的人。 19.A.routine B.belief C.theory D.rule 解析:选B 由“should help and encourage each other”可判断,此处应指作者的信念。 20.A.saying B.getting C.doing D.creating 解析:选C 本空后的it应指“help and encourage each other”,故此处应为实践这种做法。 Ⅱ.阅读理解 Whenever I was cautious about trying something new, my mom would always tell me one thing: you don't know unless you try.I've been holding this belief in my entire life.It lets me explore various opportunities that I would have missed. Over the summer, I helped out at a preschool with the kids who needed some extra learning.At first I thought it would be super crazy with kids running around all over the place.I thought it would be a month of pure annoyance, but it ended up being pretty cool.They actually opened up to us, talked to us, and told us things they needed to get off their mind.They were so joyful to be around.I found myself happy that I was helping these kids, no longer afraid of the experience. Again in middle school, I experienced this same belief.There were various school dances and school holiday events.I was not very fond of going to these events, thinking that I would either be made fun of or just simply be bored.I went to my first school dance in the 7th grade.It was a school welcoming dance.At first I really did not want to go but my mom forced me to go anyway.I was not happy with the choice my mom made, but soon regretted my doubt.The dance was really fun, with music, food, and friends.My mom was right.I never thought the dance would be enjoyable. After these two events I gained more courage to try new things.I guess my mom was right.I'd never know if I never tried. 语篇解读:本文为记叙文。作者总是不敢去尝试新的事物,是母亲的鼓励让作者获得了很多宝贵的机会。 1.By “you don't know unless you try”, the author's mom intended to ________. A.warn the author B.blame the author C.delight the author D.encourage the author 解析:选D 推理判断题。分析第一段可知,作者总是不敢尝试新的事物,因此妈妈说这句话的目的是鼓励她。 2.Before helping out at a preschool, the author thought it would ________. A.be quite cool B.give her much pleasure C.give her a chance to learn D.be an unpleasant experience 解析:选D 细节理解题。由第二段“I thought it would be a month of pure annoyance ...”可知,作者去学前班之前认为跟孩子们待在一起会很不愉快。 3.The author went to the school dance because ________. A.she liked dancing B.she was afraid of missing it C.she thought it would be enjoyable D.she was forced to go by her mother 解析:选D 细节理解题。由第三段“At first I really did not want to go but my mom forced me to go anyway.”可知,作者不愿意去参加舞会,是她妈妈逼迫她去的。 加餐练(二) 主观题规范增分练 Ⅰ.语法填空 One day, I was waiting for my train in the waiting room, in __1__ I saw large crowds of people.Among the crowds __2__ (be) a little boy carrying some pairs of sunglasses in his hands. The boy was about 10 years old.He was selling sunglasses.He tried from one person to another, but __3__ (sad), nobody seemed interested in his sunglasses.Judging from the __4__ (express) on his face, the boy was very __5__ (disappoint).

The boy managed to keep his selfrespect and chose to make a living on his own.I couldn't help __10__ (show) respect for the boy. 语篇解读:本文为记叙文,作者在候车室等火车时,遇到一个卖太阳镜的小男孩。作者想给他20美元,却被拒绝了。 1.which “in which I saw large crowds of people”是“介词+关系代词”引导的定语从句。 2.was 动作发生在过去,故用过去时。 3.sadly 空格中所填单词在句中修饰整个句子,需用sad的副词形式。 4.expression 空格中所填单词在句中作from的宾语,需用express的名词形式。 5.disappointed 该空在句中作表语,且修饰人,因此使用disappoint的ed形容词形式。 6.gave 这里描述的是过去某一天发生的事,用一般过去时。 7.To to one's surprise是固定搭配,意思是“让某人惊讶的是”。 8.to say “疑问词+不定式”结构相当于该疑问词引导的名词性从句,what to say next=what I should say next。 9.or either ...or ...意思是“要么……要么……”。 10.showing “can't help doing sth.”是习惯用法,意思是“情不自禁做某事”。 Ⅱ.短文改错 When I was small, my parents were such busy that they had no time to look after me.As the result, I spent most of my childhood on my grandparents.I really enjoyed play with my grandfather.Last year, when my grandfather passed away, I felt a deep sad.Later, I decide to do something in the honor of my beloved grandfather.So I started making a short film.It tells a story of a small boy or his grandfather.The short film is very touching and is loving by many people.I think it's my love for my grandfather makes it so touching. 答案:第一句:such→so 第二句:the→a; on→with 第三句:play→playing 第四句:sad→sadness 第五句:decide→decided; 去掉the 第七句:or→and 第八句:loving→loved 第九句:grandfather后加that Ⅲ.书面表达 假如你是李华,你的美国朋友Tom打算暑假来北京骑车旅游。请你根据以下信息给他写一封邮件介绍相关情况,并对他的旅行提出建议。 1.地势平坦,适合骑车。 2.用护照可以租到公共自行车。 3.停车、修车都很方便。 注意:1.词数100左右; 2.邮件的开头和结尾已为你写好,不计入总词数。 参考词汇:rent租用 Dear Tom, I am happy to hear about your plan to travel around Beijing by bike. Yours, Li Hua 参考范文: Dear Tom, I am happy to hear about your plan to travel around Beijing by bike.It is a good city for cycling because it is flat, which is convenient for bikes.And you don't have to buy a new bike since you can rent one in Beijing with your passport.Moreover, you can always find a mechanic in the city if your bike breaks down on the road.Parking lots are everywhere, too.

W:Never mind.I'll treat you today at the café across the street. (Text 2) W:John.What are you doing on your computer? Don't you remember your promise? M:This is not a game.It's only a word puzzle.It helps increase my vocabulary. W:OK.Have you finished your homework yet? M:Not yet.I'll stop to do it now. (Text 3) W:I really wish Tom would take more interest in our business.I don't know why he's dreaming of being a teacher. M:But, Lisa, he's grown up.I think he should do whatever he wants. (Text 4) M:It's been raining since Tuesday evening, but the weatherman said we would have clear skies tomorrow. W:I'm glad to hear that because I play golf on Fridays and I like to have good weather. (Text 5) W:Do you know Henry? He is in your company. M:Of course.As a matter of fact, I was the first person he got to know in my company.I still remember the look on his face when he showed up late on the first day. (Text 6) W:How is your English class going, Vincent? M:Not bad, Miss Elva.I can read pretty well and write well, too.But I have trouble in speaking. W:Well, it takes a while to get used to talking in English.What seems to be the problem? M:I'm always nervous.As a result, I make a lot of mistakes. W:Don't worry.It happens to everyone.You can learn how to use new words and grammar correctly by studying a learner's dictionary and practicing with a partner. M:That's a good idea, but what about my accent? W:It's pretty good, but one way to improve it is by listening to tapes and imitating native speakers. (Text 7) W:Oh, my God! What's going on here, Tom? M:I'll clean it up later.I've nearly finished.What do you think? W:It's lovely.I like the roof. M:How about the green fences? W:They make me feel active.I like them, too. M:I haven't painted the doors yet.What color do you think they should be? W:I think orange will be nice because it can make the house warm.Would you like me to help you with it? M:Oh, I can do it alone.By the way, I'm afraid I've got a bit of paint on the carpet over there.I'm terribly sorry. W:That's nothing.The carpet is old and it's time to change it.Just paint! I'll shop for a new one in Joe's Store in Main Street. (Text 8) M:Anna, it seems you fly on business trips.Don't you ever get bored? W:Actually not.I mean, I don't always like the airport check in process.It takes a lot of time.I also hate waiting for the plane.But as soon as I'm in the plane and the doors close, I love it.No one can contact me.There are free movies playing and the food.It's a good way to make me relax. M:So what do you try to do to avoid being bored when you're waiting for a plane? W:Well, the first thing I do is not get to the airport too early.After I check in, I normally go to the dutyfree store and buy some perfume.Then I'll go to the business waiting room, where there's free drinks and food. M:Do you ever buy something for your family or colleagues? W:Normally I buy stamps for my father who is a stamp collector and clothes for my fashionable mother.I always get some souvenirs and local food for my colleagues.

M:OK.What about Thailand? It's cheap to fly there.The food there is delicious and the beaches are supposed to be fantastic. W:Yeah, but isn't summer the wet season in Thailand? M:Oh, I haven't thought about that. W:Hey, I have an idea! Why don't we go to Holland? M:Holland? W:Holland isn't like other places in Europe.In Amsterdam, you can take boats around the city's canals and ride bikes everywhere else.There are also many famous museums there, and the forests and beaches are only a couple of hours away by train. M:Well, that does sound nice.I do really intend to take a boat to visit the city.But I'm sure it's expensive to get there from here. W:Actually there are some amazing deals on flights to Europe right now.They really want to encourage tourists to go there. M:Let's go online and see how much it will cost.If we can find a good deal, we should buy our tickets and start planning right now. (Text 10) (W) People always want to be popular.But if you are a high school student, and if you have watched John Hughes' movie, you will know — something is more important than being popular. Teresa is a high school student from America.Three years ago, she first discovered Myspace, a social networking website.She spent hours a day finding cool pictures and music to make her page look more beautiful.And for a long time, she competed with her friends to see who had the most friends or mostvisited page. However, the more Teresa used the website, the less she was interested in only being popular.She started using her time talking with friends, and going more deeply into her personal interests.As a beginner in taking pictures, she put her best pictures on the site and looked for advice from good photographers.At the same time, she began to get in touch with the students of the colleges she wanted to go to.And she even began putting some of her own creative writing on the website and would ask for advice on homework from her friends.“I have more fun in my life,” Teresa says. 第二部分 阅读理解 (满分40分,限时35分钟) 第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30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 Megan I'm based in Bahrain, and I have a small apartment there.The thing I like most about my job is the chance to meet people from different cultures.I spend a lot of my time handing out food and drinks and clearing up people's rubbish.I certainly don't feel very excited about going home at two in the morning! Frank I enjoy playing around with word puzzles.So I sent a couple in to a local newspaper and was really surprised when they asked me for more.I suppose it is a strange way to spend your day surrounded by dictionaries and books, but it's great because I'm just doing what I like. Gemma I love music and listen to it all the time, even when I go jogging (慢跑).As for my job — you really can't be shy in this kind of work, and you have to be very patient because sometimes we practise for hours before we get it right.When we're on tour, we work for several weeks with no breaks and you can get really tired.For relaxation, whenever I get a holiday, I go straight to a sunny beach. Raoul Most people think I spend my day chopping (切) vegetables and washing dishes, but it's not that simple.I have to be really careful with the food and keep everything very clean.The biggest problem is my boss — he shouts at me all the time — even, for example, if I forget to wash up one plate.Actually, I'm hoping to find a new job soon because I don't get much time off. 语篇解读:本文是应用文。文章是四个人对自己工作的介绍。 21.What's the biggest attraction of Megan's job?

For the past nine months, the two have teamed up every day in the preschooler's Knoxville neighborhood for a few minutes of delivering mail together and chatting with fellow neighbors.Lawson wants to be a mail carrier when he grows up, and in an inspiring story, his mom told us how mailman Mike Crenshaw has been a role model to her son.“Anyone could just be like‘Go away, kid’, but Mike has really gone out of his way to talk with Carter,” said Cassie Lawson of the United States Postal Service carrier.Little Carter even got his own uniform to match Mike's.“It's been really cute.I just couldn't believe he got a full mailman's costume,” the postal service employee said. “Every letter carrier has stops he looks forward to and this is the one I look forward to every day,” said Mike.“He's the end of my day, and the best part of my day.Not because it's the end, but because he's such a cute little guy.” The man and the little boy's connection isn't a surprise to Fredric Rolando, president of the National Association of Letter Carriers.“Kids respond to mailmen because letter carriers are a friendly, uniformed part of the neighborhood who bring something to their house every day, and are someone they come to recognize and trust,” Rolando said.“It's the same for the elderly, but in addition, letter carriers may be the only person they communicate with all day.” 语篇解读:本文为记叙文。立志长大成为邮递员的男孩和邮递员成为了好朋友。孩子的梦想值得尊重,而邮递员的工作也给人们传递了友谊和信任。 24.Mike Crenshaw meets Carter Lawson every day to________.

A.Mailmen are usually not well respected. B.What letter carriers do is not just sending letters. C.The elderly don't like communicating with others. D.People should learn to recognize and trust each other. 解析:选B 推理判断题。由最后一段可知,邮递员不只送信,还与人们交流,获得小孩的信任,甚至有可能是老人们唯一的交流对象。由此可知,他们送的不仅仅是信。 27.What is the best title for the text?

First of all, always check and doublecheck departure (起程) time.It is amazing 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 clerk 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, it is still important to have at least a little of the local currency (货币) with you when you arrive in a country.This can be necessary if you are flying to a place few tourists normally visit.A few years ago I was sent to Tulsa, Oklahoma.I flew there from London via (经由) Dallas, with very little time to change planes in between.I arrived there at midnight and the bank at the airport was closed.The only way to get to my hotel was by taxi and because I had no dollars, I offered to pay in pounds instead. “Listen! I only take real money!” the driver said angrily.Luckily I was able to borrow a few dollars from a clerk at the hotel, but it was embarrassing (令人难堪的). The third and 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 suit 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:本文是一篇说明文。文章就旅行时需要注意的问题提出了自己的建议,如确定起程时间、携带一定数量的当地货币以及确定目的地的气候等。 28.According to the passage, it's obvious that______. A.the author learns some rules of travelling from his own experiences B.the author doesn't plan his trips or journeys carefully C.Englishmen like to wear heavy suits wherever they travel D.the American taxi driver never travels to England 解析:选A 细节理解题。通读全文可以看出,作者以自己及其同事的亲身经历向读者提出了三条旅行注意事项。故A项正确。 29.According to the passage, the driver was angry because______. A.the author gave him false money B.the author did not give him the local currency C.the author did not give him money D.the author had no enough change 解析:选B 细节理解题。作者午夜抵达,银行已经关门,作者没办法把英镑兑换成美元,用英镑付打的费,而当地的流通货币是美元,司机生气原因自然就在于此了,所以选B。 30.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A.The author tells people to choose warm places as their travel destinations. B.You don't have to take credit cards when travelling. C.You should know more about the weather of the place you'll visit. D.You should take enough change when you travel to other countries. 解析:选C 推理判断题。由最后一段可知C项正确。 31.What is the main idea of the passage? A.A few simple rules about how to make life easier both before and after your journey. B.Always check and doublecheck departure time. C.It is important to have the local currency with you when you arrive in a country. D.To find out as much as you can about the weather at your destination before you leave. 解析:选A 主旨大意题。本文第一段已经明确主题:“...there are a few simple rules about how to make life easier both before and after your journey.”,接下来的段落做了详细说明,故选A。 D The skies are raining big blocks of ice, and experts are trying to learn what's going on. For the second time in six days, California was attacked by ice balls.The latest happened on early Thursday.A large block of ice dropped into Loma Linda, California.The ice crashed through the metal roof (房顶) of a fitness center, leaving a hole up to 21/2 feet wide.No one was hurt. Two tennis players were playing outside the Drayson Center on Thursday morning.Suddenly they heard a strange sound, said Crawford, an official of the Loma Linda Fire Department. A similar event happened last Saturday in Oakland, California.Early in the morning an ice ball dropped into a field at Bushrod Park and made a hole up to 2 feet wide.Luckily, no one in the park was injured. One theory is the ice was dropped from planes.But there's little direct support for that.A few experts have suggested there may be other causes of similar ice falls, perhaps even global (全球的) warming. Stories about dropping ice go back for centuries.They didn't begin to receive serious scientific attention until a few years ago, however, when Spain was attacked by a dozen large ice balls in 2000. Scientist Jesus MartinezFrias in Madrid and his team have collected reports of forty cases around the world since 1999 of puzzling falling ice.He thinks the ice forms in the air by a process similar to the formation of hail (冰雹) inside storms but without a storm. MartinezFrias believes global warming is causing the troposphere (对流层) to rise.This means the roof of the troposphere is forced to a greater height, where it cools more than normal.Thus, the temperature difference between warm and cold air in the troposphere produces strong upanddown winds that repeat the hailformation process, without a storm. 语篇解读:本文是说明文。科学家正在努力破解天降冰球之谜。 32.What took place on Thursday morning? A.A fitness center caught fire. B.A big ice ball fell in Loma Linda. C.There was heavy rain in Loma Linda. D.Two tennis players were hit by an ice ball. 解析:选B 细节理解题。由第二段中的“A large block of ice dropped into Loma Linda”可知答案。 33.What is the similarity between the two events in California? A.No one was injured. B.No building was destroyed. C.Both were seen by Crawford. D.Both caused a large number of holes. 解析:选A 细节理解题。由第二段中的“No one was hurt.”和第四段中的“no one in the park was injured”可知,这两起事件都未造成人员受伤。 34.What do we learn about dropping ice? A.It is very common around the world. B.It often happens in Spain in recent years. C.It has been carefully studied since 2000. D.It is most likely to be produced by planes. 解析:选C 细节理解题。由第六段中的“They didn't begin to receive serious scientific attention until a few years ago ...in 2000.”可知,从2000年开始,科学家才开始认真研究天降冰球现象。 35.What is the cause of ice falls according to MartinezFrias? A.Strong winds above the troposphere. B.The formation of hail. C.Global warming. D.Big storms. 解析:选C 细节理解题。由最后一段中的“MartinezFrias believes global warming is causing the troposphere (对流层) to rise.”可知答案。 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。 Top tips to be safe while traveling alone You can be safe while traveling alone if you follow the tips below: ___36___Traveling is quite distracting (令人分心的) and thus you are likely to leave behind one or two items on the café table or in the restaurant.Losing your credit cards or even your jacket can create trouble for you.

On July 7, my parents and I took a bus to Leshan, Sichuan Province, which is famous for its Buddha.The Buddha is really big and looking up at the large head and down at the large feet I felt I was so small.The next day, we climbed Mount Emei, where there are many old temples and wild monkeys.The naughty monkeys were the most exciting things I experienced there.Toward evening we made our way back.We were all tired, but our trip to Leshan was really unforgettable. I'm looking forward to going there with you next time. Yours, Li Hua查看更多
