Get together with your friends and classmates and write dialogues for a short play. It can be about anything of interest to all of you. Everyone should have a part or role to speak. You can use one of the reading passages from your textbook to make a short play. And acting out the play will help improve your pronunciation and intonation. 试着写一个剧本以便练习你们的口语。把朋友同学召集在一起写短剧的对话,可以是你们所有人感兴趣的事情,每个人都要用一个角色。你们可以用阅读文章中的一篇来编短剧,表演短剧会有助于改进你们的发音和语调。 语法讲解 宾语从句和表语从句 一. 宾语从句 宾语从句在复合句中起宾语作用,既可作动词的宾语,也可作介词的宾语(做介词的宾语时必须是由wh-疑问词引导)。引导宾语从句的连词有that,if,whether;连接代词who,whom,whose,what,which;连接副词when,where,how,why等。 学习宾语从句要把握三个要点:连接词、语序和时态。 1.使用宾语从句,连接词的选择至关重要。有关连接词的选择可遵循下面规则: 如果宾语从句为陈述句,连接词用that。由于that本身即没有实际意思,也不作成分,所以口语中常省略。 I hope (that) you will write to me as soon as possible.我希望你尽快给我写信。 宾语从句为一般疑问句时,连接词用if或whether,可译为“是否”。 He asked me if(whether) I would go to Beijing by air.他问我是否乘飞机去北京。 宾语从句为特殊疑问句时,连接词用原疑问词。 He didn’t know how he could get across the river.我不知道怎么过河。 2.从句的语序 无论原句是陈述句、一般疑问句还是特殊疑问句,在宾语从句中一律使用陈述句语序。 The teacher asked if you had finished your homework.老师问你是否做完作业了。 Can you tell us when the sports meeting will begin?你能告诉我们运动会何时举行吗? 3.时态的选择 如果主句是一般现在时,宾语从句可以是任何所需要的时态。 I hear a new restaurant will be opened in the city next month.我听说这个城市下个月将开一个新饭店。 如果主句是一般过去时,宾语从句要用与其相应的过去的某种时态。 She told us she had borrowed the book from the library.她告诉我们她从图书馆借的这本书。 He never told me when he would leave.他从未告诉我他何时离开。 注意:当宾语从句表示的是一个真理或一个永久性的事实时,其时态可不受主句时态的限制,仍用一般现在时。 The teacher said millions of other stars are even bigger and brighter than the sun.老师说数百万行星星都比太阳更大、更亮。 二.表语从句 表语从句在复合句中作句子的表语,通常用在连系动词be,look,seem后。引导表语从句的连词有that,as if,whether;连接代词who,what,which;连接副词when,where,how,why等。需要注意的是表语从句也要用陈述句语序。 The question is where we shall have the sports meeting.问题是我们在哪里开运动会。 It looked as if he had lost something.看起来他好像丢失了什么东西。 His trouble is how he can get the help he needs.他的麻烦是如何得到所需要的帮助。 His car broke down on the way. That’s why he is late.他的车坏了,那就知他迟到的原因。 听说读写提升 一、听说功能 本单元学习了请求、点菜和购物一些表达方法(Request; Ordering food and Shopping),请牢记以下一些表达: 1. Request Would you please come in? Could you offer me some kind of work? Would you mind waiting just a few minutes? I wonder if you mind us asking a few questions. 2. Ordering food I’d like some ham and eggs and a nice big steak. I’ll have a nice long glass of beer.

We were on the bus then. I was crying, and some people on the bus were turning around to look at me. I remember that I could not bear the thought of never hearing again the radio program for school children to which I listened every morning. I do not remember myself crying for this reason again. In fact, I think I cried very little when I was saying goodbye to my friends and relatives. When we were leaving I thought about all the places I was going to see—the strange and magical places I had known only from books and pictures. The country I was leaving never to come back was hardly in my head then. The four years that followed taught me the importance of optimism, but the idea did not come to me at once....................................……………………………………………….. 【点拨】C 本题属于直接信息题,可根据文章中的原句直接选择。文章的第二段中提到“the strange and magical places I had known only from books and pictures”,其中直接信息为from books and pictures,由此可知,作者了解美国是通过书刊和图画。 2. 书面表达 假设你班将举行一次英语班会,主题为“中学生应该如何使用家长给的零花钱”。请你根据提示写一篇发言稿。 使用方式 好处 存入银行 养成节约的习惯 购买书籍 获取知识 其他 培养兴趣(音乐、体育、集邮等) 练习:把下面词语填入短文中。 In my opinion, in short, also, in this way, first, second Every one of us has some pocket money which is given by our parents, but how do we spend the money? ______________, there are several ways in which we can use the money. _____________, we can put some of the money in the bank and then we can take it out when we need it. ____________, we can form the habit of saving. ____________, we can spend some of the money on books which can give us knowledge. ___________, we can spend the money on other hobbies, such as music, sports and collecting stamps. __________ no matter how we spend the money, one thing must be remembered: Never waste any money. 答案:In my opinion;First;In this way; Second;Also;In short, 词句篇总结 1.直到你告诉了我,我才对这件事情有所了解(It is…that…)。 ______________________________________________________________________________ 2.如果前门没有人应答,为什么不试着敲敲后门呢?(Why not…?) ______________________________________________________________________________ 3.我想知道你能否跟我一起去听音乐会。(I wonder if…) ______________________________________________________________________________ 4.那是我第二次遇到她。(That was the…time that…) ______________________________________________________________________________ 5.你无论到哪里都要遵守规则。(wherever) ______________________________________________________________________________ 6. 众所周知,台湾是中国最大的岛。(it is well-known that) ______________________________________________________________________________ 7.我对你做的事情很感兴趣。(what作介词的宾语) ______________________________________________________________________________ 8. 在乡下我们度过了一个愉快的周末。至于交通,我们没有遇到任何困难。(as for) ______________________________________________________________________________ 9. 他不穷, 相反, 他是个百万富翁。(on the contrary) ______________________________________________________________________________ 10. 你是怎么看待兄弟两人打的赌?

He had little school education. In spite of this, he became the most famous writer of his time. He made millions of dollars by writing. His real name was Samuel Langhorne Clemens, but he is better known all over the world as Mark Twain, his penname. Mark Twain was born in 1835 and he was not a health baby. In fact, he was not expected to live through the first winter. But with his mother’s care, he managed to survive. As a boy, he caused much trouble for his parents. He used to play jokes on all his friends and neighbors. He didn’t like to go to school, and he often ran away from home. He always went in the direction of the nearby Mississippi(密西西比河). He was nearly drowned nine times. After his father’s death, Mark Twain began to work for a printer, who only provided him with food and clothing. Then, he worked as a printer, a river-boat pilot(领航员) and later joined the army. But shortly after that he became a miner. During this period, he started to write short stories. Afterwards he became a full time writer. In 1870, Mark Twain got married. In the years that followed he wrote many books including Tom Sawyer in 1876, and Huckleberry Finn in 1884, which made him famous, and brought him great fortune. Unfortunately, Mark Twain got into debts in bad investments(投资) and he had to write large numbers of stories to pay these debts. In 1904, his wife died, and then his children passed away. At the age of 70, his hair was completely white. He bought many white suits and neckties (领带). He wore nothing but white from head to foot until his death on April 21, 1910. 21. When Mark Twain was a little baby, _____. A. he was not strong enough B. he was as active as other boys C. his mother though he would die D. he was always in hospital 22. In his childhood, ____. A. Mark Twain learned a lot at school B. he often went swimming with other boys C. his mother often worried about his safety D. he often played games with other boys 23. In order to make a living, Mark Twain ____. A. first worked as a printer B. did many kinds of work C. wrote stories in the beginning D. he joined the army after he worked in a mine 24. In the later years of his life, Mark Twain ____. A. must have been very sad because he lost his wife and three children B. wrote many stories and earned a lot of money C. continued writing until his death D. lent too much money to others B That cold January night, I was growing sick of my life in San Francisco. There I was, walking home at one in the morning after a tiring practice at the theatre. With opening night only a week ago, I was still learning my lines. I was having trouble dealing with my part-time job at the bank and my acting at night at the same time. As I walked, I thought seriously about giving up both acting and San Francisco. City life had become too much for me. As I walked down empty streets under tall buildings, I felt very small and cold. I began running, both to keep warm and to keep away from any possible robbers (抢劫犯). Very few people were still out except a few sad-looking homeless people under blankets. About a block from my apartment (公寓房间), I heard a sound behind me. I turned quickly, half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun. The street was empty. All I saw was a shining streetlight. Still, the noise had made me nervous, so I started to run faster. Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I realize what the noise had been. It had been my wallet falling to the sidewalk. Suddenly I wasn’t cold or tired anymore. I ran out of the door and back to where I’d heard the noise. Although I searched the sidewalk anxiously for fifteen minutes, my wallet was nowhere to be found. Just as I was about to give up the search, I heard the garbage truck (垃圾车) pull up to the sidewalk next to me. When a voice called from the inside, “ Alisa Camacho?” I thought I was dreaming. How could this man know my name? the door opened, and out jumped a small red-haired man with an amused look in his eye. “Is this what you’re looking for?” he asked, holding up a small square shape. It was nearly 3 A.M. by the time I got into bed. I wouldn’t get much sleep that night, but I had gotten my wallet back. I also had gotten back some enjoyment of city life. I realized that the city couldn’t be a bad place as long as people were welling to help each other. 25. From the first paragraph, we learn that the write was busy ______. A. solving her problem at the bank B. taking part in various city activities C. learning acting in a n evening school D. preparing for the first night show 26. On her way home the writer _______. A. lost her wallet unknowingly B. was stopped by a garbage truck driver C. was robbed of her wallet by an armed man D. found some homeless people following her 27. In the fifth paragraph, why did the writer say she was dreaming? A. Someone offered to take her back home. B. A red-haired man came to see her. C. She heard someone call her name D. Her wallet was found in a garbage truck. 28. From the text, we can infer that the writer _________. A. would stop working at night B. would stay on in San Francisco C. would make friends with cleaners D. would give up her job at the bank. C Most people believe that money makes the world go around. Others believe that money buys happiness. I do not agree with the idea. But I do admit that money can make people do strange things. Let me tell you about a person I once knew who liked to play card games for money. My friend Bob liked to gamble at all costs. He would play at any time and at any price. To take part in a card game such as poker, my friend would have to ante up(下赌注). He would have to pay a small amount of money at the beginning of the game. Bob always played with cold, hard cash—only coins and dollar bills. Sometimes my friend would clean up. He would win a lot of money on one card game. He liked to tell me that one day he would break the bank. What a feeling it must be to win all of the money at a gambling table! Other times my friend would simply break even. But sometimes Bob would lose his shirt. He would lose all the money he had. He took a beating at the gambling table. When this happened, my friend would go into debt and owe people money. Recently, Bob turned to crime after losing all his money. In his job, he kept the books for a small business. Although my friend was usually honest, he decided to cook the books. He illegally changed the financial records of the company. This permitted him to make a fast buck. My friend made some quick, easy money dishonestly. It did not take long before my friend’s dishonesty was discovered. The company investigated and charged him with stealing. Bob tried to pass the buck. He tried to blame someone else for the deficit(赤字). His lie did not work, however. He ended up in jail. Today, I would bet my bottom dollar that my friend will never gamble again. 29. It is generally believed that ______. A. money can make people do strange things B. rich people like to play card games for money C. people can do almost anything with money D. money can buy happiness 30. The underlined phrase “break even” means _________. A. play with only coins and dollar bills B. win a lot of money on one card game C. lose all the money he had D. neither win nor lose money 31. When did Bob turn to crime? A. After cleaning up. B. After breaking the bank. C. After losing his shirt. D. After making a fast buck. 32. How did Bob get the money? A. By stealing some cash from the company. B. By changing the financial records. C. By blaming someone else for the deficit. D. By teaming up with another clerk. D The Cost of Higher Education Individuals (个人) should pay for their higher education. A university education is of huge and direct benefit to the individual. Graduates earn more than non-graduates. Meanwhile, social mobility is ever more dependent on having a degree. However, only some people have it. So the individual, not the taxpayers, should pay for it. There are pressing calls on the resources (资源) of the government. Using taxpayers’ money to help a small number of people to earn high incomes in the future is not one of them. Full government funding (资助) is not very good for universities. Adam Smith worked in a Scottish university whose teachers lived off student fees. He knew and looked down upon 18th-century Oxford, where the academics lived comfortably off the income received from the government. Guaranteed salaries, Smith argued, were the enemy of hard work; and when the academics were lazy and incompetent, the students were similarly lazy. If students have to pay for their education, they not only work harder, but also demand more from their teachers. And their teachers have to keep them satisfied. If that means taking teaching seriously, and giving less time to their own research interests, that is surely something to celebrate. Many people believe that higher education should be free because it is good for the economy (经济). Many graduates clearly do contribute to national wealth, but so do all the businesses that invest (投资) and create jobs. If you believe that the government should pay for higher education because graduates are economically productive, you should also believe that the government should pay part of business costs. Anyone promising to create jobs should receive a gift of capital from the government to invest. Therefore, it is the individual, not the government, who should pay for their university education. 33. The underlined word "them" in Paragraph 2 refers to _______. A. taxpayers B. pressing calls C. college graduates D. government resources 34. The author thinks that with full government funding ______. A. teachers are less satisfied B. students are more demanding C. students will become more competent D. teachers will spend less time on teaching 35. The author mentions businesses in Paragraph 5 in order to ______. A. argue against free university education B. call on them to finance students’ studies C. encourage graduates to go into business D. show their contribution to higher education 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 Our world is very large and there are still some remote places that need settlers. 16 Settlers are important if Alaska is to become a strong and growing state. Alaska is situated in the northwest extremity of the North American continent, with Canada to the east, the Arctic Ocean to the north, and the Pacific Ocean to the west and south 17 To help settlers, the government will give each pioneer as much as 160 acres of land free. The settler can build a log cabin from his own trees. But to make a living from the land takes hard work. 18 Only a few weeks separate the frosts(冰冻) of spring and fall. Corn, tomatoes, apples, and peaches need more time to become ripe. Another problem for the settler is that much of Alaska has a layer of soil under the ground that is always frozen. 19 However, during June and July, the sun shines both night and day, and some crops grow rapidly. Cabbages weigh as much as 45 pounds. Beets (甜菜), lettuce,(莴苣) strawberries(草莓), and potatoes are other crops that do well. 20 . For those willing to work hard, Alaska offers a chance for rewarding(有报酬的)life. A. This layer is called permafrost. B. The fields there are hard to plough. C. Alaska grows some of the world’s finest vegetables. D. People would not like to go there because it is too cold. E. A man can become a pioneer in Alaska for very little money. F. One of these places is Alaska, the largest state of the United States. G. Because Alaska is so far north, its crops have a short growing season. 第三部分:英语知识运用(共两节;满分45分) 第一节:完形填空(共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分) 阅读下面短文,掌握其大意,然后从各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中,选出最佳选项。 Police officer Fang was a generous (慷慨的) man.
