必修1Unit 1Friendship李仕才一、阅读理解ATaylore is a kid who passes by to ride sometimes and help us with chores. Barely 15, shes never short of advice, and one of her favorite pastimes is teasing me about being afraid to go too fast on a horse.Last summer four of us rode down the trail behind our woods: my wife Karen, Taylore, Taylores friend Kendall and me. I was riding my 13-year-old, Tawny.We were two miles from home when, for some unexplainable reason,I pushed Tawny into a gallop(飞驰). The other horses were anxious to catch up, and just like that, the race was on.Taylore brushed past my left leg and, seconds later, Kendall went by on my right. I realized Tawny was covering ground faster than Id ever seen her. She strained every muscle in her body to catch up with the girls. It was like a truck winding over a mountain road without brakes (闸). Part of me felt perfectly in control, while another part screamed that I wasnt.In half a mile I knew wed be crossing the highway, so I prayed that the girls would be fine. I gave up calculating how long it might take before my horse would be tried enough to want to slow down.I was just about out of answers when I saw the girls slowing in front of me. Their horses were relaxed and comfortable, not even breathing hard. Taylores face glowed. She gave me a high five. Wow, you did well, she said. I knew youd go fast when you were ready.No one in the group had even broken a sweat, except me. I was still nervous from the crazy pace. My heart pounded too, but not from exercise. Karen claims I was showing off for the girls that day, and maybe shes right. But I think I had something to prove. Because despite my wrinkles (皱纹), glasses and gray hair, I was feeling young at heart. And, like a horse on a warm summer day, Im always ready to kick up my heels.1. How did the race between the girls and the author begin?A. His horses gallop made the other horses want to catch up.B. He wanted to show off his riding skills for the girls.C. They wanted to know whose horse could run fastest.D. They teased him about being afraid to go too fast on a horse.2. During the race, _.A. the authors horse outran the girls horses the whole timeB. the author was confident that Tawny was in controlC. the girls were so anxious to win that they sweated a lotD. the authors good performance took Taylore by surprise3. When the race ended, the authors heart pounded because _.A. he was feeling thrilled and youngB. it was really tough exercise for himC. he was worried that the girls might be in dangerD. he felt quite embarrassed that he had lost the race4.

A friend had business dealings in the city of Reno, Nevada, and I was asked to accompany her on an overnight trip. While she conducted her business, I was aimlessly wandering down Virginia Street, heading into a most gloriously beautiful sunset. I had an urge to speak to someone on the street to share that beauty, but I couldnt make eye contact with anyone. Quickly I ducked into a department store and asked the lady behind the counter if she could come outside for just a minute. She looked at me as though I were from some other planet and said,“Well.” Surprisingly, she followed me out.When she got outside I said to her, “Just look at that sunset! Nobody out here was looking at it and I just had to share it with someone.”For a few seconds we just looked. Then I said, “Gods in his heaven and alls right with the world.” I thanked her for coming out to see it and sharing the beauty. Four years later my situation had changed considerably. I had come to the end of a twentyyear marriage. I was alone and on my own for the first time in my life. One day, while my clothes were going around, I picked up a Unity Magazine and read an article about a woman who had been in similar circumstances. She had come to the end of a marriage, moved to a strange community, and the only job she could find was one she disliked: cosmetic sales in a department store. We had a lot in common. Then something happened to her that changed everything. She said a woman came into her department store and asked her to step outside to look at a sunset. The stranger had said “Gods in his heaven and alls right with the world,”and she had realized the truth in that statement and that she simply had not been seeing it. From that moment on, she turned her life around.【文章大意】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者与陌生的女店员分享看到的日落美景,而这次经历改变了这位女店员的人生。文章旨在告诉读者用乐观积极的态度面对变化不定的人生。【长难句分析】One day, while my clothes were going around, I picked up a Unity Magazine and read an article about a woman who had been in similar circumstances.(第四段第四句)分析:该句为主从复合句。“who had been in similar circumstances”为who引导的定语从句,修饰先行词a woman; while引导时间状语从句。译文:一天,我四处闲逛时在Unity Magazine上阅读到了一篇文章,该文章是关于一位和我有着相同遭遇的女士的。1. Why did the writer duck into a department store?AShe found it was boring with nobody talking to her.BShe wanted to buy something for her friend.CShe wanted to find somebody to share the beautiful sunset.DShe thought it was her responsibility to share the natural beauty with others.答案与解析:C考查细节理解。【关键句】While she conducted her business, I was aimlessly wandering down Virginia Street, heading into a most gloriously beautiful sunset. I had an urge to speak to someone on the street to share that beauty, but I couldnt make eye contact with anyone.(第一段第三、四句)译文:在她处理业务期间,我漫无目的地在Virginia大街上闲逛,眼前便是辉煌壮丽的日落美景。我迫切地想在街上找个人和他分享美景,可是我一个人都没有找到。【解题思路】该题提问的是作者溜进商店的原因。根据关键句并结合文章第二段内容可知,作者溜进商店是为了邀请别人一起欣赏日落美景。故C项正确。2. What does the sentence “Gods in his heaven and alls right with the world” mean?AWe should be optimistic in the face of uncertainty.BWe should believe in God who can help us when we are in trouble.CWe should never hold the belief that God can change our life. DWe should be independent and enjoy ourselves in spite of difficulties.答案与解析:A考查句意理解。【关键句】.and she had realized the truth in that statement and that she simply had not been seeing it.From that moment on, she turned her life around.(最后一段最后两句)译文:她已经认识到了这句话中蕴含的真理,只是一直没有留意过。从那一刻起,她的人生发生了翻天覆地的改变。【解题思路】通读全文可知,这句话共出现过两次,第一次是在第三段第二句;第二次是在第五段第三句。结合最后一段最后两句及第四段和第五段描述的该女士最终改变了自己的人生可知,该句是在说前途未卜时,我们应保持积极乐观的心态。故A项正确。3. What do you think finally changed the writers attitude towards life?AThe old magazine she came across. BThe encouragement from the woman.CThe sunset they enjoyed four years ago. DThe womans story.答案与解析:D考查推理判断。【解题思路】该题问的是你认为是什么最终改变了作者对待生活的态度。根据文章内容可知,作者邀请一位女士一起分享日落美景这一举动及在观景时所发出的感悟改变了这位女士看待人生的态度,从而改变了她的人生。如今作者和这位女士之前的遭遇相似,得知她已改写自己的命运。由此可推知,这位女士的故事会改变作者对待人生的态度。故D项正确。4. What may be the best title for the text? ADepending on yourself BSharing beauty CStruggling every day DNever giving up halfway答案与解析:B考查标题概括。【关键句】While she conducted her business, I was aimlessly wandering down Virginia Street,heading into a most gloriously beautiful sunset.I had an urge to speak to someone on the street to share that beauty,but I couldnt make eye contact with anyone.(第一段第三、四句)译文:在她处理业务期间,我漫无目的地在Virginia大街上闲逛,眼前便是辉煌壮丽的日落美景。我迫切地想告诉街上的人以便同他们分享美景,可是我一个人都没有找到。【解题思路】根据关键句并结合全文内容可知,文章由“欣赏日落美景”引出故事,且两次提到观景的感悟,告诉读者用积极乐观的态度来面对变化不定的人生。B项“分享美景”最适合做文章标题。故B项正确。二、七选五Youre growing up.That means youre probably experiencing lots of changes,all at once.Your body is changing.It might even seem as if your entire self is changing.It can be confusing and even scary. 1 And its good!Growing up means that you can do more,learn more,and start to make your mark on the world.In order for that to happen, your body produces chemicals called hormones that help both body and mind grow.Hormone levels change constantly,rising and falling. 2 But its partly to blame for intense emotions,surprising reactions,and mood swings.Because of the way your brain develops,it is somewhat ruled by emotions now and through your teen years.As a result, growing up can seem like an emotional roller coaster! 3 Take care of yourself.If you eat right,sleep enough,and get good exercise,your brain will be much more able to deal with the stress. 4 When you feel your moods swinging or youre upset,or confused,some quiet time will allow you to gather your thoughts and get calmer. Practice relaxing your body and deep breathing when you wake up and when you go to bed. 5 Plus,when stuff happens during the day,youll be able to calm yourself quickly with a deep breath or two before you react.Your body is changing.ATake a timeout.BBut the truth is,it happens to every teen.CWork out regularly to keep physically fit.DThis changing is needed for your bodys development.EIt will help you fall asleepand start the morning right.FHere are a few things you can do to make the ride smoother.GUsually,these feelings settle down when you realize what is going on.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了青少年如何应对成长过程中的一些变化。1B由空前的“confusing and even scary”和空后的“good”可知,空处在这里起承上启下的作用,所以选B项。2D由空前一句可知,荷尔蒙的水平一直在不断地改变,忽高忽低;D项中的“This changing”与空前的“change”相对应,所以选D项。3F空前的“an emotional roller coaster”与F项中的“make the ride smoother”相对应,且由下文列举的几个要点可知,F项符合文意。4A由本段中的“一些安静的时间将使你集中精神,安静下来”可知,A项正确。5E空前的“Practice relaxing your body and deep breathing”与E项中的“It”对应,空前的“when you wake up”与E项的“start the morning right”对应;空前的“when you go to bed”与E项的“fall asleep”对应。所以选E项。三、短文改错Last Sunday,I joined the voluntary group to help keep the traffic in good order at a big crossing near our school.At 800 am.,we arrived there,wore red vests with the word VOLUNTEER on the back.We helped with the police remind the passers-by to obey traffic rule.To our delighted,they all waited for the green light patient except one motor-biker.We also give out some handmade brochures about traffic regulations,for that many people praised us.About 4 hours later,they said good-bye to the police and left.Tired as we were,we all felt an honor to do our parts.答案:Last Sunday,I joined voluntary group to help keep the traffic in good order at a big crossing near our school.At 800 am.,we arrived there, red vests with the word VOLUNTEER on the back.We helped with the police remind the passers-by to obey traffic .To our ,they all waited for the green light except one motor-biker.We also out some hand-made brochures about traffic regulations,for many people praised us.About 4 hours later, said good-bye to the police and left.Tired as we were,we all felt an honor to do our parts.解析:在全文中是第一次出现,不能用特指,而应用泛指。故将the改为a。解析:现在分词作状语表主动含义,此处wear的主语是we,其间是主动关系。解析:帮助某人做某事,不存在help with sb.sth这一搭配。故将with去掉。解析:交通法规为固定用语,法规肯定不可能就一个。故将rule改为rules。解析:固定用语,意为令我们高兴的是。故将delighted改为delight。解析:副词修饰形容词,此处是用副词patiently修饰形容词waited。解析:整篇文章所描述的事情发生在过去,所以动词应用过去时态。解析:考查定语从句中介词which的用法,此处for是与后面praised相照应的,praise sb.for sth.解析:全篇的人称都是we我们,根据句意也应该是“我们和警察道别”。解析:it在此处作形式宾语不可省略,真正的宾语是后面的不定式。四、短文语法填空Classical Chinese poetry is traditional Chinese poetry 1.

Classical Chinese poetry has proven to be of strong influence 10. poetry worldwide.【语篇解读】本文为说明文。文章简单介绍了中国古诗的一些相关情况。1written考查非谓语动词。中国古诗是用古文写的传统中国诗歌。write与poetry之间是动宾关系,故用过去分词作后置定语。2connections考查名词。空前有形容词close“紧密的”,故空处填名词。connection在此表示“(两种事实、观念等的)联系,关联”,是可数名词,故填名词的复数形式。3is documented考查动词的时态和语态。document在此表示“记录,记载”,是及物动词,document与existence之间是动宾关系,故用被动语态,且此处表示客观事实,要用一般现在时。4Various考查形容词。存在多种多样的形式和种类的结合体。空处修饰名词combinations,故填形容词various“多种多样的”。5arose考查动词的时态。它们中的很多或者说大部分产生于唐代晚期。arise“产生,出现”,是不及物动词,根据时间状语at the end of the Tang Dynasty可知本句用一般过去时。6actively考查副词。分析句子结构可知,空处修饰谓语动词continued,故用副词actively“活跃地”。7when考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知,空处引导定语从句,先行词是the year of 1919,空处在从句中作时间状语,故填when。8a考查冠词。a great deal of“大量的,许多”,是固定搭配,修饰不可数名词,故填a。9its考查代词。空处指代对象是Classical Chinese poetry,且表示“的”,故填its。易错分析本空容易误填their,因为学生没有弄清楚文章的逻辑关系,以为空处指代的对象是前面的the key aspects。但是如果这样的话,句意就说不通了。10on/upon考查介词。influence“影响”常与介词on/upon连用。 9
