Unit 5 First Aid李仕才一、阅读理解。 The American Family Immigration History Center is an exciting new interactive area at the Ellis Island Immigration Museum where more than 100 million Americans may search for their familys beginnings in the New World. Now, for the first time, the passengers records of the ships that landed some 22 million immigrants, crewmembers and other passengers at the Port of New York and Ellis Island from 1892 to 1924 have been computerized, making it easier than ever to discover your own family history.Five years in the making, the center was developed and funded by the Statue of the LibertyEllis Island Foundation, Inc., which was responsible for the restoration and preservation of the Statue of the Liberty and Ellis Island, and the creation of the Immigration Museum.For visitors to the Museum, the excitement begins at a welcomingkioskwhere you can enter ancestors names and see if their arrival records are included in the database and are available in the History Center in the Museums West Wing. Once inside the Center itself, in the very place where your ancestors (grandgrandparents) may have ended their long journey, you and your family can log on the one of 41 computers, type in name, and, within seconds, set in motion your own special journey of discovery.Imagine the excitement youll share with your family as you use the latest technology to sort through a vast computerized archive (档案馆) with millions of records, and see your familys own personal story in America come to life before your eyes.Millions of hours were spent creating this vast database and, if you find your ancestors names, youll discover answers to questions youve always wondered about. What ship did my family members take? When did they arrive? How old were they? Were they married? Then, take these valuable records and create your own Family History Scrapbook, preserving forever the story of the past while keeping the legacy of your family alive.1.Why is it easier for visitors to find their family histories in the History Center?A.

Then my car died completely after I _4_ (manage) to roll to the side of the road. It was an extremely dark, lonely country road. Neither a single person _5_ any traffic was in sight at all. I felt like an idiot. I should not have left without charging my cell phone.The battery was dead and I was alone without any way _6_ (contact) my family. Time dripped slowly like a leaking tap.“God, help me!” I begged anxiously. “Is there someone who will be kind enough to stop and help me out?”_7_ , there was no sign of anyone. I was starting to panic, _8_ (feel) completely abandoned.Suddenly I saw a faint light _9_ the distance. I waved my white scarf as hard as possible. It was a huge lorry. The driver stopped and kindly drove me to the nearest hotel, _10_ I had a rest, and then I called my family and explained what had happened. How lucky I was! When he stopped for me, I felt as if I had just found a million dollars.1_ 2._ 3._ 4._ 5._ 6._ 7._ 8._ 9._ 10._ 篇章导读:本文是一篇记叙文,主要讲述了作者晚上在驾车回家的路上车子出了故障,被困在乡村马路上,最终在好心人的帮助下成功脱困的故事。1when考查连词。“be doing sth. when . ”为固定句型,意为“正在做某事,这时突然”。故填when。2difference考查词性转换。make any difference为固定搭配,意为“有任何作用,有任何影响”。故填difference。3left考查非谓语动词。动词leave与plenty(指代汽油)之间存在逻辑上的被动关系,故用leave的过去分词left作后置定语,意为“剩下的,剩余的”。故填left。4managed考查动词的时态。纵观全文可知,整篇文章的时态以过去时为主,故此处也应用一般过去时,描述过去发生的事。故填managed。5nor考查固定搭配。neither . nor . 为固定搭配,意为“既不也不”。故填nor。6to contact考查非谓语动词。the way to do sth.为固定搭配,意为“做某事的方法”。故填to contact。7However考查副词。根据语境可知,作者期待有人会停下来帮忙,然而,作者却看不到一个人影。空格处表示转折,且其后有逗号,故填However。注意首字母大写。8feeling考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,主语I和动词feel之间为主动关系,故用feel的现在分词形式作伴随状语。故填feeling。9in考查介词。in the distance为固定短语,意为“在远处”,故填in。10where考查定语从句的引导词。分析句子结构可知,空格处引导的是定语从句,修饰先行词hotel,在从句中作状语,表地点。故填where。三、完形填空。阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出可能填入空白处的最佳选项。My fianc(未婚夫)and I decided today was the day to treat ourselves to a nice dinner.It _1_ as“our day”,but little did we know that it would turn into much _2_.I didnt want the whole day to be about wanting to _3_ the office for the upcoming(即将到来的)_4_ and I didnt want it to be just another romantic night for two,_5_ I decided to do something to make ourselves and others happy.I began in small ways.I _6_ a few more coins into the food vending machines(自动售货机)at work for the staff,so that there would be something for the next _7_ worker.I posted smile signs in the hall which gave _8_ instructions on how to smile as _9_ entered the office,either before their morning cup of coffee or right before a meeting with their boss.I drafted some powerful words of inspiration on colorful strips of paper and decorated my _10_ ,so that any colleague who came by might just_11_ for a moment,read,and _12_ change their feeling.When it came time for our lovely dinner to _13_ that night,I left the server a big _14_ and a wellwishing note for her to have a _15_ day.As my fiance and I were just about to leave our table,the waitress _16_ tears beside us.We asked her to _17_ with us and we just listened.As an emotional mothertobe,I _18_ along with her,too.Our table for two was now for _19_.It was a day that was not _20_ ours,but it was the waitressday,my coworkers day,and now its your day too!1A.startedBadaptedCdisappeared Dfinished2A.later BworseCmore Dearlier3A.apply BleaveCfind Dstay4A.party BpicnicCbanquet Ddinner5A.if BthoughCso Dbecause6A.turned BputCmade Dhid7A.full BsleepyCangry Dhungry8A.few BcleanCclear Dpuzzling9A.employees BmanagersCfriends Dbosses10A.home BofficeCrestaurant Dbedroom11A.stop BrunCeat Dbuy12A.never BhardlyCfrequently Dperhaps13A.change BbeginCarise Dend14A.bill BtipCorder Dmenu15A.wonderful BcarefulCbusy Danxious16A.looked into Bcame intoCmade into Dburst into17A.stand up Bsit downCgo away Dstay up18A.smiled BshoutedCcried Dcheered19A.three BfourCfive Dsix20A.ever BusualCjust Deven【解题导语】本文是一篇记叙文。作者和她的未婚夫决定一起共进晚餐。在这本该属于他们自己的特殊一天里,作者却选择把关爱和欢乐一同送给同事、餐厅服务员、甚至是未曾谋面的陌生人,让爱和温暖滋润他人。1A考查动词辨析。根据下文的“but little did we know that it would turn into much _”及下文内容可知,这顿晚餐一开始只属于我们。start意为“开始”,符合语境。故选A。2C考查形容词辨析。根据最后一段中的“but it was the waitress day,my coworkers day, and now its your day too”可知,“我们”的这一天最后却变得更有意义,是更多人的一天。more 意为“更多”,符合语境。故选C。3B考查动词辨析。根据语境可知,此处指吃晚饭前先离开办公室。leave意为“离开”,符合语境。故选B。4D考查名词辨析。根据第一段第一句中的“a nice dinner”可知,此处指即将到来的晚餐。故选D。5C考查连词辨析。根据语境可知,此处指作者不想这一天只属于她和未婚夫,她也想给他人带来快乐。本句与上句构成因果关系。故选C。6B考查动词辨析。根据语境及常识可知,硬币应该是放入自动售货机。B项意为“放,安置”,符合语境。故选B。7D考查形容词辨析。根据上文中的“food vending machines(自动售货机)”可知,此处指在自动售货机里放入多一些的硬币,是为了让下一个肚子饿了来买食物的同事有东西吃。hungry意为“饥饿的”,符合语境。故选D。8C考查形容词辨析。根据空格后的“instructions”及上文中的“I posted smile signs in the hall”可知,此处指作者在大厅里贴出清晰易懂的笑脸示范。clear意为“清晰易懂的,明白清楚的”,符合语境。故选C。9A考查名词辨析。根据下文中的“right before a meeting with their boss”可知,此处应指雇员。故选A。10B考查名词辨析。根据空格后的“any colleague who came by”可知,作者装饰的是办公室。故选B。11A考查动词辨析。根据空格后的“for a moment,read”可知,路过的同事们看到激励的话会停下来读一读。故选A。12D考查副词辨析。根据语境可知,作者觉得这些激励的话可能会改变同事们的心情。此处表推测。故选D。13D考查动词辨析。根据下文中的“I left the server.”可推知,此处应表示在晚餐结束要离开的时候。end意为“结束,终止”,符合语境。故选D。14B考查名词辨析。根据语境及常识可知,在离开之前作者给服务员留下了很丰厚的小费。B项意为“小费”,符合语境。故选B。15A考查形容词辨析。根据上文及“a wellwishing note”可知,作者的便条是祝愿服务员有美好的一天。wonderful意为“精彩的,绝妙的”,符合语境。故选A。16D考查动词短语辨析。根据上下文语境可知,服务员看到作者的便条感动得哭了。burst into tears意为“突然哭了”,符合语境。故选D。17B考查动词短语辨析。根据空格后的“with us”可知,作者邀请服务员坐下来,听她倾诉。B项意为“坐下”,符合语境。故选B。18C考查动词辨析。根据上文中的“As an emotional mothertobe”及语境可知,服务员突然哭起来,而作者作为一名感性的孕妇也陪她哭了起来。故选C。19A考查数词辨析。根据上文可知,作者夫妇和服务员一起坐着,因此一共是三个人。故选A。20C考查副词辨析。句意为:这一天已经不仅仅是属于我们的,也是属于服务员的、我的同事的而且现在也是你们的。just意为“仅仅”,符合语境。故选C。四、短文改错。With the development of the Internet, many people are used to shopping online.
