‎　Unit 1　A land of diversity Ⅰ.阅读理解 A ‎[2020·湖北省武汉市高中毕业生调研]In American countryside, the message we hear is this: Go and get an education. Leave your small town and make something of yourself. Success and opportunity are found elsewhere.‎ After graduating from a high school in Helena, Arkansas, I did go.‎ I went to Colby College in Maine. I had visited the school ahead of time, so I knew what I was getting myself into. I knew about the difference in weather. I understood the difference in social atmosphere. But I wanted to stretch myself and get out of my comfort zone. And you know what? I absolutely loved my time there. But one thing took me by surprise — the lack of countryside representation. Most of the other students at Colby were from big cities: New York, Boston, Los Angeles, San Francisco ... And when I had conversations with these students — in or outside of class — we almost always focused on topics facing large American cities. In my education classes, it was always “urban this” and “urban that”．‎ It was like small town America didn't exist.‎ And this urban interest doesn't just happen in college. I went to an education conference a couple of years ago, and a professor — someone who had been at the forefront of educational reform — was there to deliver a keynote. I was chosen to be part of a small group that got to meet with him. So there we were, five or six of us sitting in a room, and I asked him, “What are your thoughts on the state of education in the countryside？” And this man was speechless.‎ I'll never forget that moment. It speaks to a larger truth. Towns like mine are forgotten.‎ This trend of exporting talent and resources to our big cities — this mindset of leaving small towns and never coming back — I don't want to add to that movement. I want to reverse that movement.‎ Now it's my turn to help people younger than me. And you know what? I'm a sixth grade teacher in Helena now.‎ ‎1．What do people in American countryside think of the future of the youth at home?‎ - 10 -‎ A．Secure.　　　　　　　B．Fragile.‎ C．Promising. D．Bright.‎ ‎2．What did the author find in his college classroom?‎ A．Students chatted freely.‎ B．Countryside was ignored.‎ C．He was looked down upon.‎ D．Students concentrated on education.‎ ‎3．How would the author feel about the professor's reaction?‎ A．It's emotional. B．It's natural.‎ C．It's positive. D．It's disappointing.‎ ‎4．What is the author doing now?‎ A．Teaching in a college.‎ B．Fighting for the movement.‎ C．Working with the professor.‎ D．Devoting himself to his hometown.‎ B ‎[2020·太原模拟]We're often reminded of the importance of preserving the planet as we see it for future generations — and children at St Oswald's CE Primary School Chester certainly agree.‎ Nineyearold Isobel Kelleher from the school's Hummingbirds class thinks adults need to take note. “Sometimes they can be busy and I don't think they think they can make a difference, but if everyone does a little bit it all adds up，” she tells HuffPost UK. “We started looking at plastic pollution in our oceans and the things like plastic bags that are polluting them，” she says. “Fish can eat the plastic and they can die, or we might even eat the fish ourselves.”‎ Mr Timms, Isobel's teacher, has been spearheading a new project at the school which lets children loose creatively to raise awareness of the need to be more environmentally friendly. The entire Hummingbirds class, which is made up of 9 and 10yearold pupils, has been busy writing poems and creating online video adverts to warn adults about the serious situation of our oceans and wildlife.‎ Mr Timms thinks children have an important role to play in teaching us how to take care of the things around us. “We sometimes overlook how much we can really learn from children，” he says. “It has been really hard to believe having parents come in saying that their children have been asking them to stop using plastic, and - 10 -‎ ‎ to recycle more, and even stopping them using plastic straws.”‎ Mr Timms is proud of his Hummingbirds class. “The message that they would like to send to the world is simple: stopping this isn't someone else's job: and it won't be OK if we just leave it.”‎ ‎5．What can we infer about adults according to Isobel Kelleher?‎ A．They just pretend to be busy.‎ B．They haven't done their part well.‎ C．They can do nothing to stop pollution.‎ D．They have started to care about the ocean.‎ ‎6．What is the purpose of the school project?‎ A．To help adults to learn more about their kids.‎ B．To remind adults to be friendly to the environment.‎ C．To persuade students to stop using plastic bags.‎ D．To teach students how to write poems creatively.‎ ‎7．Why does Mr Timms mention parents in Paragraph 4?‎ A．To prove kids are creative in teaching.‎ B．To attract people to support his work.‎ C．To have adults care about education.‎ D．To show the effects of the project.‎ ‎8．What is the text mainly about?‎ A．An inspiring school project.‎ B．An appeal to stop plastic bags.‎ C．Serious situations of our planet.‎ D．Adults' ignorance of the environment.‎ Ⅱ.完形填空 ‎[2020·陕西省部分学校第一学期摸底检测]My cousin is nine years old, a little bit fat and doesn't do really well at school.

How are you going to celebrate your birthday the next month? If you hadn't arranged anything, come to the concert holding by my favorite band in the city stadium. I'm sure you will not regret it. The concert will be Sunday. Clearly it will be a hit, because the ticket of the concert are sold very well. The only problem is when the performance starts quite lately — at nine pm. We can take a bus there, so there will be no bus when the concert is over. I will ask your dad to pick us up and you can stay in my home for the night.‎ 课时作业(三十六)‎ Ⅰ.阅读理解 A - 10 -‎ 体裁：记叙文　题材：社会文化　主题：美国的乡村逐渐被人遗忘 ‎【语篇解读】　本文作者通过自己的大学生活经历以及在一次教育会议上与一位教授进行交流的故事说明了美国的乡村正在逐渐被人遗忘的现象，作者也由此决定帮助乡村中的年轻人。‎ ‎1．B　推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Leave your small town and make something of yourself. Success and opportunity are found elsewhere.”可知，在美国的乡村，年轻人的就业前景并不稳定，成功和机会都在别处。故选B项。‎ ‎2．B　推理判断题。根据文章第三段中的“And when I had conversations with these students ... it was always ‘urban this’ and ‘urban that’，”和第四段“It was like small town America didn't exist.”可知，作者在他的大学课堂中发现大家总是探讨与城市相关的问题，就好像乡村在美国不存在一样。也就是说，乡村被人们忽视了。故选B项。‎ ‎3．D　推理判断题。根据倒数第三段“I'll never forget that moment. It speaks to a larger truth. Towns like mine are forgotten.”可知，作者在教授对于自己提出的有关乡村的问题无言以对时，意识到像自己家乡那样的乡村被人们遗忘了。由此可推知，作者对此感到失望。故选D项。‎ ‎4．D　推理判断题。根据第二段中的“After graduating from a high school in Helena”可知，作者的家乡在海伦娜，再根据最后一段“Now it's my turn to help people younger than me. And you know what? I'm a sixth grade teacher in Helena now.”可知，作者现在在家乡教书，帮助家乡中的年轻人，为家乡作贡献。故选D项。‎ B 体裁：说明文　题材：环境保护　主题：环保 ‎【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了“蜂鸟班”积极响应一个环保教育项目。该班由9岁和10岁的孩子组成，他们通过写诗和制作在线视频广告以提醒成年人注意环保问题。‎ ‎【难句分析】　Mr Timms, Isobel's teacher, has been spearheading a new project at the school which lets children loose creatively to raise awareness of the need to be more environmentally friendly.‎ 分析：该句为主从复合句。句中“which lets children loose creatively to raise awareness of the need to be more environmentally friendly”为which引导的定语从句，修饰先行词a new project, which在从句中作主语。‎ 译文：伊泽贝尔的老师蒂姆斯先生一直在学校领导一个新项目，该项目让孩子们创造性地放松，以增强需要更加环保的意识。‎ ‎5．B　考查推理判断。根据第二段的内容，尤其是第一句“Nineyearold Isobel Kelleher from the school's Hummingbirds class thinks adults need to take - 10 -‎ ‎ note”可知，学校“蜂鸟班”里九岁的伊泽贝尔认为成年人需要注意环保问题；据此可推知，成年人在环保问题上不是做得很好，故B项正确。‎ ‎6．B　考查细节理解。根据第三段尾句“The entire Hummingbirds class, which is made up of 9 and 10yearold pupils, has been busy writing poems and creating online video adverts to warn adults about the serious situation of our oceans and wildlife”可知，整个“蜂鸟班”由9岁和10岁的学生组成，他们一直忙着写诗和制作在线视频广告，提醒成年人海洋和野生动物所处的严重处境；据此可知，该项目旨在提醒成年人要注意环保问题，故B项正确。‎ ‎7．D　考查推理判断。根据第四段尾句“It has been really hard to believe having parents come in saying that their children have been asking them to stop using plastic, and to recycle more, and even stopping them using plastic straws”可知，真的很难相信有父母说孩子们要求他们停止使用塑料，甚至要求他们停止使用塑料吸管；据此可推知，该段提及父母旨在说明该项目对成年人的影响，故D项正确。‎ ‎8．A　考查主旨大意。通读全文可知，文章第三段第一句“Mr Timms, Isobel's teacher, has been spearheading a new project at the school which lets children loose creatively to raise awareness of the need to be more environmentally friendly”为全文的主题句，结合全文内容可知，本文主要介绍了“蜂鸟班”积极响应一个环保教育项目，该班由9岁和10岁的孩子组成，他们通过写诗和制作在线视频广告，提醒成年人注意环保问题。故A项正确。‎ Ⅱ.完形填空 体裁：记叙文　主题语境：人与自我——人物故事——堂妹身上美好的东西 ‎【语篇解读】　作者的堂妹因为有点儿胖和学业成绩不是很好被别人取笑，从而对成年人产生了一些抵触和不信任。一次，作者和堂妹去参观一个艺术展览，堂妹主动布置分享会的桌椅、和新朋友一起画画并帮作者拿包。之后他们又去买了一本记录一位母亲和患有自闭症的儿子的旅程的书。作者把这个故事讲给堂妹听，堂妹非常感兴趣，这是作者第一次看到堂妹对一个话题如此感兴趣，作者感慨一个陌生人的生活影响了小女孩的心灵，祈祷以后能够一直看到堂妹身上美好的东西。‎ ‎1．D　根据上文中的“a little bit fat and doesn't do really well at school”可推知，作者的堂妹有点胖，学业成绩不是很好，因此被人取笑。abuse“虐待”；adore“热爱，爱慕”；tease“取笑”。故选D。‎ ‎2．C　根据上文内容并与该句中的“resistance”相呼应可知，她对通常对她不抱太大希望的成年人产生了一些抵触和不信任(distrust)。‎ ‎3．A　根据下文中的“There were paintings”“show”可知，作者和堂妹一起去参观了艺术展览。故选A。‎ - 10 -‎ ‎4．D　根据下文中的“for the paintings she liked most were also the best of the show”可推知，堂妹的眼光非常敏锐(sharp)，她喜欢的画是展览中最好的。‎ ‎5．C　根据空后的“the chairs and table for a sharing session”并结合选项可知，她自愿去帮着布置桌椅。故选C。‎ ‎6．C　与上文“voluntarily helped”相呼应可推知，作者参加分享会的时候，堂妹和新朋友一起画画，还很高兴地(cheerfully)帮作者从另一个房间拿包。‎ ‎7．B　此处指上文堂妹为作者拿包这件事，故选B。‎ ‎8．B　这在家里是不常见的，因为她总是在看iPad。glue意为“黏合”，be glued to sth.为固定短语，意为“全神贯注看着某物”。故选B。‎ ‎9．C　作者买了一本由一位母亲写的书，书中记录(recording)了她和患有自闭症的儿子的旅程。‎ ‎10．D　由空前的“briefly”及下文中的“asking me to tell more stories”可知，在回家的公交车上，作者简要地把这本书介绍给堂妹。故选D。‎ ‎11．D　由下文中的“She kept asking me to tell more stories”“This is the first time I've seen her so interested”可知，让作者惊讶的是，堂妹确实很感兴趣。truly意为“确实地”，故选D。‎ ‎12．A　由上文书中的男孩患有自闭症可知，此处表示书中的男孩努力应付生活中的小事。struggle with sth.为固定短语，意为“与某事作斗争”。‎ ‎13．A　由下文中的“seen her so interested”可推知，即使话题转移到别的地方，她也坚持要多听听这个男孩的故事。这是作者第一次看到她对一个话题如此感兴趣。insist on意为“坚持”，故选A。object to“反对”。‎ ‎14．C　参见上题解析。上文中的subject“话题”也是提示。‎ ‎15．B　由上文作者第一次看到堂妹对一个话题如此感兴趣可知，通常，当她和作者谈话时，她描述的是学校和家里发生的事情，没有明确的重点。故选项B符合语境。controversial“有争议的”。‎ ‎16．A　作者感动于一个陌生人的生活打动了堂妹的内心。touch意为“感动，触动”，故选A。‎ ‎17．B　书中的人和作者他们并不认识，因此是陌生人。故选B。‎ ‎18．D　由上文书中人物的生活能打动堂妹的内心可知，作者非常感谢书籍的力量。‎ ‎19．A　根据空后的“I can keep seeing clearly the wonderful things in her”并结合选项和常识可知，作者希望能一直看到堂妹身上的美好。pray“强烈地希望”，故选A。conclude“推断出”。‎ ‎20．B　与第一段叙述的堂妹被别人取笑可知，此处表示每当这个不那么友善的世界批评她时，作者就能提醒她，她一直都是很棒的。put sb.‎ - 10 -‎ ‎ down是固定短语，意为“批评某人；使某人出洋相”。故选B。turn sb. down“拒绝某人”；let sb. down“使某人失望”。‎ Ⅲ.短文改错 Hi, Mike. How are you going to celebrate your birthday next month? If you arranged anything, come to the concert by my favorite band in the city stadium. I'm sure you will not regret it. The concert will be Sunday. Clearly it will be a hit, because the of the concert are very well. The only problem is the performance starts quite — at nine pm. We can take a bus there, there will be no bus when the concert is over. I will ask dad to pick us up and you can stay in my home for the night.‎ ‎①删除next前的the。考查冠词。next month表示从现在算起的下一个月。the next month表示从过去或将来某时算起的下个月。从全文看，作者现在在询问对方下个月如何庆祝他的生日，显然是指从现在算起的下个月。‎ ‎②hadn't改为haven't。考查时态。如果你还没有安排任何生日庆祝活动，请来看我最喜欢的乐队在市体育场举行的演唱会吧。表示“你还没有安排”，应该用现在完成时，而非过去完成时，因为这里不存在”过去之过去”。‎ ‎③holding改为held。考查非谓语动词。此处作后置定语，hold与被修饰词之间是逻辑上的动宾关系，故用过去分词。‎ ‎④be后加on。考查介词。如果没有介词，表示“演唱会是一个周日”，不符合逻辑。加上介词后，表示“这个演唱会在周日举行”，符合上下文意思。‎ ‎⑤ticket改为tickets。考查名词单复数。本句谓语是are，再根据上下文，演唱会的票应是复数，故用tickets。‎ ‎⑥sold改为selling。考查语态。sell在此表示“有销路”，sth. sell well/badly“某物畅销/不畅销”为固定用法，不用于被动语态。‎ ‎⑦when改为that。考查表语从句。根据句意和分析句子结构可知，表语从句成分和意思完整，是在说明“演唱会开始的时间很晚”这一情况，故用that引导该表语从句。‎ ‎⑧lately改为late。考查副词。late表示“晚，迟”，但lately表示“最近”，与上下文意思不符。‎ ‎⑨so改为but。考查连词。此处表示“我们去的时候可以坐公交车，但是演唱会结束时就没有公交车了”，前后分句为转折关系，故用but。‎ - 10 -‎ ‎⑩your改为my。考查代词。根据下文的“你可以在我家过夜”可知，此处应是“我会让我爸爸来接我们”，故用my。‎ - 10 -‎
