2020届一轮复习人教版必修三Unit1Festivals around the world单元学案 单元话题阅读 India has many festivals, with some celebrations that last for weeks.However, none of them come even close to Holi, India's most colorful and fun festival.Celebrated on the day following the full moon, this year's festival happens to be on March 19th. As with most Indian festivals, this one also has many different folk stories.Most of them center around the success of good over evil.The most popular one is about a king, who hates his son Prahlada for loving the creator of the Universe — Lord Vishnu.When every attempt to stop him fails, his sister, Holika believed to be immune (免疫的) to fire, joins in the effort by inviting the young boy to sit with her inside a huge fire.Helped by the power of Lord Vishnu, Prahlada escapes safely, while the evil Holika is burned to death.To remember this event, huge outdoor fires are lit in the night before Holi in order to clean the air of evil spirits and to celebrate the death of the evil. So what's so great about this day? While there are some fun parades (游行) and folk songs and dance performances, the most fun of all is walking to the streets and splashing (泼洒) people with water guns and dry colors and even covering them with entire buckets of colored water.On this day, everybody is fair game, no matter how old or how young. At about midday, the splashing comes to an end and people living close to oceans or rivers usually take a bath in the water to clean themselves before going home to a delicious homemade big dinner and a welldeserved short sleep, following this full day of fun and activities. Section_Ⅰ Warming Up & Reading — Prereading [原文呈现] FESTIVALS AND CELEBRATIONS Festivals and celebrations of all kinds① have been held everywhere since ancient times.Most ancient festivals would celebrate the end of cold weather, planting in spring and harvest in autumn.Sometimes celebrations would be held after hunters② had caught animals.At that time people would starve③ if food was difficult to find④, especially during the cold winter months.Today's festivals have many origins⑤, some religious⑥, some seasonal⑦, and some for special people or events. Festivals of the Dead Some festivals are held to honour⑧ the dead or to satisfy⑨ the ancestors⑩, who might return either to help or to do harm⑪.For the Japanese festival Obon⑫, people should go to clean graves⑬ and light incense⑭ in memory of⑮ their ancestors. They also light lamps and play music because they think that this will lead the ancestors back to earth.In Mexico⑯, people celebrate the Day of the Dead in early November.On this important feast⑰ day, people eat food in the shape of skulls⑱ and cakes with “bones”⑲ on them.They offer food, flowers and gifts to the dead.The Western holiday Halloween⑳ also had its origin in old beliefs○21 about the return of the spirits of dead people.It is now a children's festival, when they can dress up○22 and go to their neighbours' homes to ask for sweets.If the neighbours do not give any sweets, the children might play a trick on○23 them.

Harvest Festivals Harvest and Thanksgiving festivals can be very happy events.People are grateful because their food is gathered○28 for the winter and the agricultural○29 work is over.In European countries, people will usually decorate churches and town halls with○30 flowers and fruit, and will get together○31 to have meals.Some people might win awards○32 for their farm produce○33, like the biggest watermelon or the most handsome rooster○34.China and Japan have midautumn festivals, when people admire○35 the moon○36 and in China, enjoy mooncakes. ○24poet/'pəʊIt/n.诗人 ○25arrival/ə'raIvl/n.到来;到达;到达者 ○26gain India's independence 赢得印度的独立 gain/ɡeIn/vt.获得;得到 independence/ˌIndI'pendəns/n.独立;自主 independent/ˌIndI'pendənt/adj.独立的;自主的 ○27who引导的定语从句,修饰the leader。 ○28gather/'ɡæðə/vt.& vi.搜集;集合;聚集 ○29agricultural/ˌæɡrI'kʌltʃərəl/adj.农业的;农艺的 agriculture/'æɡrIkʌltʃə/n.农业;农艺;农学 ○30decorate ...with ...用……装饰…… ○31get together 聚会;聚集 ○32award/ə'wɔːd/n.奖;奖品 vt.授予;判定 ○33produce/'prɒdjuːs/n.产品;(尤指)农产品 ○34rooster/'ruːstə/n.雄禽;公鸡 ○35admire the moon 赏月 admire/əd'maIə/vt.赞美;钦佩;羡慕 ○36when people admire the moon ...是when 引导的非限制性定语从句,修饰midautumn festivals。 [第3~4段译文] 纪念名人的节日 也有纪念名人的节日。中国的端午节(龙舟节)是纪念古代著名诗人屈原的。美国的哥伦布日是纪念克里斯托弗•哥伦布发现“新大陆”的节日。在印度,10月2日是纪念莫汉达斯•甘地的全国性节日,甘地是帮助印度脱离英国而获得独立的领袖。 庆丰收的节日 收获节与感恩节是非常喜庆的节日。由于越冬的粮食收集起来了,农活也结束了,人们都心 怀感激。在欧洲国家,人们通常用鲜花和水果来装饰教堂和市政厅,在一起聚餐。有些人还可能因为他们农场的农产品而获奖,比如最大的西瓜或最好看的公鸡。中国和日本都有中秋节,这时人们会赏月。在中国,人们还品尝月饼。 Spring Festivals The most energetic○37 and important festivals are the ones that look forward to○38 the end of winter and to the coming of spring○39.At the Spring Festival in China, people eat dumplings, fish and meat and may give children lucky money in red paper○40.There are dragon dances and carnivals○41, and families celebrate the Lunar New Year○42 together.Some Western countries have very exciting carnivals, ○43which take place forty days before Easter○44, usually in February.These carnivals might include parades○45, dancing in the streets day and night○46, loud music and colourful clothing○47 of all kinds.Easter is an important religious and social festival for Christians○48 around the world.It celebrates the return of Jesus from the dead and the coming of spring and new life.Japan's Cherry Blossom Festival○49 happens a little later.The country, covered with cherry tree flowers○50, looks as though○51 it is covered with pink snow.

Melt! Festival, Germany This festival takes place on the site of an open air museum for industrial machinery.There's also a lake which can be used for swimming when it's hot.This year's lineup has over 120 different bands (乐队).Around 90% of the people attending the festival are German providing a perfect chance to practise speaking the language.

Open'er Festival, Poland Held in an airfield near the northern city of Gdansk, each year Open'er has a seriously good selection of bands.This year is no exception, with many famous bands set to play.Not only are there amazing artists, but both Poland and the festival itself also provide very excellent value for money. 语篇解读:本文是应用文。文章介绍了欧洲的四个音乐节。 1.What is special about Melt!

The original Nicholas was born in 280 AD in the small country of Lycia, which is now part of modern Turkey.Nicholas became first a priest (牧师) and then a bishop (主教) in the early Christian church.The first paintings of him show Nicholas wearing the clothes of a Christian bishop — red decorated with white.When we see Santa's suit today, we're still seeing the two kinds of colors. Nicholas became famous for giftgiving.In the early fourth century, a legend began to spread about Nicholas coming at night to the home of three poor girls who did not have money and therefore could not get married.While the girls slept, Nicholas left gold coins in their stockings, which were drying by the fire.That's how the tradition of Santa filling stockings got its start. In 1841, Santa first appeared at a department store in Philadelphia.This Santa tried to climb down a chimney to impress the children who were watching, but he got stuck halfway down.In 1890, department store Santas began appearing all over America, especially on the East Coast around Boston.Parents in other countries joined together and hired passenger trains to take their families to see these Santas. At the same time, Ralph E.Morris of the New England Telephone Company suggested that strings of lights be hung on Christmas trees.After all, lights would be much safer than candles.Our modernday image of Santa as a fat man is based on ads of the CocaCola company in the 1930s.Artist Hans Sundblom used a retired salesman named Les Prentice as his model. 语篇解读:本文为记叙文。圣诞节传统的起源是所有节日中最吸引人的,人们了解这些起源也是为了使圣诞节过得更美妙。 4.What can we learn from Paragraph 1?

A.He set up the first Christian church. B.He was called Santa Claus when he was born. C.His clothes are similar to Santa's suit in color. D.His image is the same as the modernday Santa. 解析:选C 推理判断题。由第二段“...red decorated with white.When we see Santa's suit today, we're still seeing the two kinds of colors.”可知,尼古拉斯第一批画像中穿着基督教主教的衣服——红色镶有白色的衣服。在如今圣诞老人的装扮中,我们看到的仍然是这两种颜色。 6.Three poor girls are mentioned to ________. A.prove that Nicholas used to be a rich man B.tell of the origin of Santa filling stockings C.show Christmas was set up mainly for the poor D.describe a famous story in the early fourth century 解析:选B 细节理解题。由第三段“That's how the tradition of Santa filling stockings got its start.”可知,提到三个穷苦女孩是为了讲述圣诞老人把礼物放进袜子这一传统的由来。 7.What can we infer from the last two paragraphs?

My earliest memory of books was sitting on my bed at night with my mom reading to my older brother and me from C.S.Lewis, J.R.R.Tolkien, or Madeleine L'Engle.And my first beloved book that was all mine was a children's book about being a chosen child.As an adopted (收养的) child, this book helped me learn that my family was my very own because they chose me.As I got older, the books got thicker and more difficult.The first set of books I ever bought with my own money was L.M.Montgomery's Anne of Green Gables. When in elementary school, there was a book catalog (目录) that would come out.We could take it home and have our parents help us order new books.Then the books would be sent to the school.There was nothing better than getting my little bag of books. My love for science fiction was deepened by my older brother's love for it.Beyond being the person to introduce me to Star Trek and Doctor Who, it was his copy of The Sword of Shannara by Terry Brooks that got me really interested in science fiction. I read classics in high school.The first time I had the thought that I wanted to be a writer was after reading Edgar Allan Poe's work.And his use of words floored me.I remember using his word “phantasmagorical” for a senior paper.Yeah, it's no wonder I ended up an English major and English teacher passing on my love for the written word and the books students could hold in their hands. 语篇解读:本文是记叙文。作者在家庭成员的影响下逐渐爱上阅读,并走上了教书育人之路。 8.What was the author's earliest memory of books?

They got married⑲ secretly, and they were very happy.(“We could be like that,” thought Li Fang.) When the Goddess of Heaven knew that her granddaughter was married to a human, she became very angry and made the weaving girl return to Heaven⑳.Niulang tried to follow her, but the river of stars, the Milky Way○21, stopped him.Finding that Zhinü was heartbroken○22, her grandmother finally decided to let the couple cross the Milky Way to meet once a year○23.Magpies○24 make a bridge of their wings○25 so the couple can cross the river to meet on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month.People in China hope that the weather will be fine on that day, because if it is raining, it means that Zhinü is weeping○26 and the couple won't be able to meet.,⑮the Goddess of Heaven 王母娘娘 ⑯weave/wiːv/vt.&vi.(wove/wəʊv/, woven/'wəʊvn/)编织;(使)迂回前进 ⑰herd/hɜːd/n.牧群;兽群 ⑱fall in love (with sb.)(与某人)相爱;爱上(某人) ⑲get married 结婚(表动作) get married to sb.与某人举行婚礼/结婚 be married to sb.与某人结婚(表状态) ⑳make sb.do sth.使某人做某事,不带to 的动词不定式作宾补。若在被动语态中,则to不能省略。 ○21the Milky Way 银河 the Milky Way作the river of stars的同位语。 ○22现在分词短语Finding ...heartbroken 作状语,表示原因。 ○23once a year 一年一次 ○24magpie/'mæɡpaI/n.喜鹊 ○25make sth.of sth.用某物做成某物 ○26weep/wiːp/vi.(wept/wept/,wept)哭泣;流泪 n.哭;哭泣 cry vi.哭;sob vi.啜泣;weepy adj.爱哭的 [第3段译文] 王母娘娘的外孙女下凡来到人间。她的名字叫织女,做纺织活的女孩。她在人间遇到了牛郎,两人相爱了。(李方想,“这正像我和胡瑾。”)于是他们秘密结了婚,并且生活得十分幸福。(李方想,“我们也可以像他们那样幸福的。”)当王母娘娘知道自己的外孙女跟一个凡人结了婚,她勃然大怒,强行把织女带回到天宫。牛郎试图追上去,却被银河阻挡住了。看到织女伤心欲绝,王母娘娘最后决定让这对夫妻每年跨过银河相会一次。阴历七月初七,喜鹊会展翅搭桥,让这对恋人过河相会。中国人都希望这天天气晴朗,因为如果碰到下雨,这就意味着织女在哭泣,这对恋人就不能见面。 The announcer○27 said, “This is the story of Qiqiao Festival.When foreigners hear about the story, they call it a Chinese Valentine's story○28.It's a fine day today, so I hope you can all meet the one you love.” As Li Fang set off○29 for home, he thought,“I guess Hu Jin doesn't love me.I'll just throw these flowers and chocolates away○30.I don't want them to remind me of her○31.” So he did. As he sadly passed the tea shop on the corner on his way home, he heard a voice calling him○32.There was Hu Jin waving at him and calling○33,“Why are you so late? I've been waiting○34 for you for a long time! And I have a gift for you!” What would he do? He had thrown away her Valentine gifts!

[第4~7段译文] 主持人说道:“这就是乞巧节的故事。当外国朋友听到这个故事时就将它称作中国的情人节故事。今天天气晴朗,所以我希望你们都能遇到自己所爱的人。” 当李方动身往家走时,心里想:“我猜胡瑾不爱我,我要把这些鲜花和巧克力都扔了。我不想因它们想起她来。”于是他把花和巧克力都扔了。 在回家的路上,他失落地走过拐角处的一家茶馆,听到有人叫他。那是胡瑾在向他招手,她喊道:“你为什么这么晚才来呢?我一直在这儿等你,等了好久了!这是我送给你的礼物!”,他怎么办呢?他把要送给她的情人节的礼物都扔了!她恐怕永远不会原谅他了。这个情人节快乐不起来了!

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 to celebrate 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这个节日的到来。 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,淹没了他们所有的庄稼。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 Sometimes I thought I was a good mom.Sometimes, I felt like I spent the day nagging (唠叨不休) my kids rather than __1__ them, especially my strongwilled son.__2__ a family gettogether taught me an important __3__.

According to a new study in the journal Science, babies receive more than genetics (基因) from their parents.They can also get certain good qualities, such as persistence (坚持不懈), by watching how adults behave.Researchers at Massachusetts Institute of Technology say that babies who watched an adult struggle (努力) with and then triumph_over something were more likely to show persistence themselves when given a new task. The team at MIT studied 262 babies between the ages of 13 and 18 months.They placed them in one of three situations.In the first one, the lead researcher struggled with two different toys' problems before solving them, letting the baby watch while she did so.The second time, the researcher solved the problems but did not struggle with them.And for the third scene, she did not do anything. After each scene, the researcher left a small musical toy with the child.She showed the baby that it could play music but did not teach them how to turn it on.The babies who had watched the researcher struggle discovered and pressed the toy's button (按钮) a much greater number of times than those in the last two groups.In other words, the babies did not copy what they had watched; they learned not to give up, instead. Now, the researchers are interested in finding which ways of talking with babies influence them the most.They also hope to know if the results can work in the real world, as well as whether the lesson of persistence might last into adulthood. 语篇解读:本文是说明文。研究发现,婴儿可以从父母那里学到坚持不懈的好品质。 1.What important lesson might parents forget?

A.Succeed at. B.Look at. C.Search for. D.Care for. 解析:选A 词义猜测题。根据第二段中的“babies who watched an adult ...when given a new task”可知,孩子看到家长努力做一件事并获得成功后会在接受新任务时表现出这种坚持不懈的品质。 3.What did the study mainly show?

D.Kids are smarter than we thought. 解析:选B 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“In other words ...they learned not to give up, instead.”可知,婴儿可以通过观察学到坚持不懈的品质。 4.What will the researchers make an effort to do?

About two million tourists visit Cape Town every year.It isn't the capital city (that's Pretoria), and it isn't the biggest city either (that's Johannesburg), but Cape Town is South Africa's most popular city with tourists for its many attractions and activities.From the beautiful views and sunny beaches to great shopping, Cape Town has something for everyone.In fact, a vacation in Cape Town is unforgettable! Adventure (冒险) & outdoors For the outdoor adventurer or sports fan, Cape Town has a lot of activities from climbing to diving (潜水) — all combined with fantastic settings and sunny skies. Water sports & diving Cape Town's beaches are perfect for water sports.Scuba diving is also popular.The many shipwrecks (失事船只) along the coastline offer some excellent dives.The more adventurous diver can even try shark cage (鲨鱼笼) diving to get eyetoeye with a great white! If you aren't so adventurous, try a visit to Boulders Beach.It's part of a protected area for the African penguin.You can walk around on wooden roads and watch the penguins in their natural environment.It's great for swimming too, if you don't mind coming facetoface with a penguin or two! Cape Town's weather is pleasant.In summer, it's about 26℃ (and remember, midsummer here is January!), and the winter temperatures don't usually fall below 10℃.The local money is the rand.There are one hundred cents to every rand.The three main languages are Xhosa, English and Afrikaans.The population of Cape Town is about 3.5 million. 语篇解读:本文是应用文。文章是一则介绍开普敦旅游项目的广告。 21.What can we learn about Cape Town? A.It is underdeveloped. B.It is a wellvisited city. C.It is less famous than Pretoria. D.It is bigger than Johannesburg. 解析:选B 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Cape Town is South Africa's most popular city with tourists for its many attractions and activities”及“In fact, a vacation in Cape Town is unforgettable!”可知,开普敦是一个热门旅游城市。 22.Which of the following is a special sight at Boulders Beach? A.Shipwrecks. B.Penguins. C.Sharks. D.Shops. 解析:选B 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“try a visit to Boulders Beach.It's part of a protected area for the African penguin”可知,在Boulders Beach游客可以看到企鹅。 23.What does the last paragraph mainly talk about? A.A few facts about Cape Town. B.Some suggestions for tourists. C.The best time to go to Cape Town. D.The reasons for visiting Cape Town. 解析:选A 段落大意题。根据最后一段中对开普敦天气、货币、语言、人口的介绍可知,该段主要介绍了开普敦的基本情况。 B You can deal with winter in two ways: Escape it or embrace it.Watching people dive into snow — in nothing but bathing suits and boots — I'm guessing these people choose to do the latter. The seasonal madness is part of the Quebec Winter Carnival, now in its 63rd year, said to be the world's largest winter festival.About a halfmillion people each year come to Quebec City to delight in frigid (寒冷的) fashion. “We embrace winter,” said Paule Bergeron of Quebec City Tourism.“It's time to play.” The carnival runs from Jan.29 to Feb.14, with dozens of events.I went last year for a few frigid days, staying at the Hilton Quebec, in the thick of the downtown action.Families are a big part of the carnival.What attract kids are things like icefishing at a manmade pond stocked with fish, where if you catch something, you can pay to have it smoked and eat it, or donate it to a food bank. It's a good chance to experience the culture of this Europeanfeeling city, and nowhere is more evident than in Bonhomme, the carnival's goodwill ambassador, a living avatar (化身) in the form of a giant snowman with a human inside gliding (滑行) around the festivities. There are two night parades at the carnival.I attended the second one last year, the night before the carnival's close.The streets were lined with thousands of people in a gentle snow and bitter cold, watching local dancers and school groups glide by.In the end, Bonhomme's float came into view, and kids in the crowd went crazy.As the parade ended, thousands followed behind it, becoming part of the Quebec Winter Carnival's magic and madness.And with a cup of milk in my hand, I realized that for once, not only did I not mind winter, I embraced it. 语篇解读:本文为说明文。作者亲历了魁北克冬季狂欢节的盛况,感受了人们冬天的激情和活力。 24.Which of the following is TRUE about the Quebec Winter Carnival? A.It is held to attract visitors. B.It has a history of less than 60 years. C.It is mainly intended to entertain kids. D.It is the largest winter festival in the world. 解析:选D 细节理解题。由第二段“...said to be the world's largest winter festival”可知,魁北克冬季狂欢节是世界上最大的冬季节日。 25.Who is Bonhomme? A.It is a giant snowman. B.It is a famous star in Quebec. C.It is the goodwill ambassador of the carnival. D.It is the organizer of the Quebec Winter Carnival. 解析:选C 细节理解题。由倒数第二段“the carnival's goodwill ambassador”以及“in the form of a giant snowman with a human inside”可知, Bonhomme 是狂欢节的形象大使,是由人装扮的雪人。 26.We can infer from the last paragraph that ________. A.kids love to see Bonhomme B.the carnival ends with two parades C.the parades are the maddest part of the carnival D.people attend the parades mainly to see Bonhomme 解析:选A 推理判断题。由最后一段“In the end, Bonhomme's float came into view, and kids in the crowd went crazy.”可知,孩子们看到Bonhomme 都激动不已,由此可知,孩子们喜欢看Bonhomme。 27.The author attended the carnival probably as ________. A.a visitor to Quebec B.a festival performer C.an official in Quebec D.a local newspaper reporter 解析:选A 推理判断题。由第三段“I went last year for a few frigid days, staying at the Hilton Quebec”可知,作者是作为游客去参加狂欢节的。故A项正确。 C 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。 28.Many people don't work hard at math because they think that ________.

Unfairness is a good thing.There is more to be gained by the effort when things seem unfair.It is true that many things in the world are unfair, but unfair things usually benefit you.For example, the early bird catches the worm.It is unfair that the bird that sleeps in misses out on breakfast, but it is nice to know that if he gets up early he is sure to get the worm. I always try to explain to my kids that complaining about how unfair the thing is will get them nowhere.Instead, make use of it and get on the other side of it.Once you do that you are in the advantage.Above all, you have to focus on gaining the unfair advantage and you have to build your inner strength.When you empower (使强大) yourself, you are gaining skills or abilities, confidence and selfconfidence.You should look at your place in the world.Where do you want to be financially, spiritually, emotionally, and physically? You are creating your own story when you empower yourself. You can build all the advantages that you need to live the life that you want.If you haven't yet, you need to make a list of all the things you want to experience in your new life.This will help you focus on building the advantage so that you never have to say that it's not fair.When you do this, then you will be able to realize that unfairness is a good thing. 语篇解读:本文为议论文。在不平等面前人们往往选择抱怨,但作者认为,越是不平等的事情,越能激发我们的潜能,让我们受益。 32.Why is unfairness a good thing?
