Unit 3 A healthy life一、阅读理解。The American travel website pany TripAdvisor publishes a list of the worlds best beaches every year.Today，we are going to explore some of this years top 10 beaches in the world.1Baia do Sancho，BrazilIt is named as this years best beach in the world.Its water is calm and clear.Its sand is fine and soft.But getting to Baia do Sancho is not so easy.It is on Fernando de Noronha，a volcanic island more than 300 kilometers off Brazils coast.Travelers must take a plane or boat from major cities in northern Brazil to get there.And no more than 420 visitors can be on the island at one time.2Grace Bay，Turks and CaicosWhile Baia do Sancho is difficult to get to，TripAdvisors secondranked beach could not be much easier for tourists to reach.This beach has impossibly clean and clear waters and pure white sand.Its calm waters make it extremely safe for swimming，snorkeling，or simply floating.Once on land，many visitors enjoy walkingbarefootfor several kilometers on the soft，warm sand.3Eagle Beach，ArubaTo get to the thirdbest beach，we head south to the Dutch Caribbean island of Aruba.Like Grace Bay，Eagle Beach has clear，calm waters and soft white sand.It offers visitors a chance to try different water sports，including tubing and jet skiing.Eagle Beach may be best known，however，for its dramatic sunsets.On clear nights，the sky turns red，orange，and purple.4Playa Paraiso，CubaThe fourthbest beach is Playa Paraiso，an island off Cubas southern coast.It has a fun，laidback restaurant for those who wish to eat and drink.There is little else on the beach.And that is exactly what visitors like about it.People e here for the sugarlike sand and calm waters filled with colorful wildlife.1Which of the following is true about Baia do Sancho?AIt receives thousands of visitors each time.BIt can only be visited by plane.CIt is near the Brazils coast.DIt is hard to reach.2Where can visitors go if they want to enjoy the beauty of the sinking sun?ABaia do Sancho，Brazil.BGrace Bay，Turks and Caicos.CEagle Beach，Aruba.DPlaya Paraiso，Cuba.3What can visitors mainly do on Playa Paraiso，Cuba?AGo boating.BHave a relaxing dinner.CAdmire colorful sand.DTry different water sports.【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文。美国一家旅游网站介绍了四个年度世界排名前四的海滩。【难句分析】People e here for the sugarlike sand and calm waters filled with colorful wildlife.分析：这是一个复杂的简单句。过去分词短语filled with colorful wildlife作waters的后置定语。译文：人们为了像砂糖一样的沙子和充满丰富多彩的野生动植物的平静的水域而来到这里。1D考查细节理解。根据题干关键词“Baia do Sancho”及第二段中的“But getting to Baia do Sancho is not so easy. Travelers must take a plane or boat from major cities in northern Brazil to get there”可知，Baia do Sancho比较难到达，所以选D。2C考查细节理解。根据第六段中的“Eagle Beach may be best known，however, for its dramatic sunsets”可知，Eagle Beach有令人印象深刻的日落，与题干的“enjoy the beauty of the sinking sun”所表达的意思相一致，所以选C。3B考查细节理解。根据第七段句子“It has a fun，laidback restaurant for those who wish to eat and drink”可知，在Playa Paraiso能够享用令人放松的晚餐，所以选B。二、语法填空。A survey showed a child, who has been protected and habitually given whatever he wants, will always put himself first. He will be ignorant _1_ his parents efforts. When he starts work, he _2_ (assume) that every person must listen to him, and when he bees a manager, he will never know the sufferings of his _3_ (employ) and will always blame others.For this kind of person, _4_ may be good academically and may be _5_ (success) for a while, eventually he will not feel the sense of achievement. If we are this kind of protective parents, are we really showing love or are we destroying our children instead? You can let your children live in _6_ big house, eat a good meal, learn the piano, watch a big screen TV. But when you are cutting grass, please let them experience _7_.After a meal, let them wash their plates and bowls together with their brothers and sisters. It is not _8_ you do not have money to hire a maid. You want them _9_ (understand), no matter how rich their parents are, one day their hair will grow gray.The most important things are that your children learn _10_ to appreciate the effort and experience the difficulty and learn how to work with others to get things done.1_ 2._ 3._ 4._ 5._ 6._ 7._ 8._ 9._ 10._ 篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。研究表明被溺爱的孩子往往会很自私，因此让孩子适度体验生活的艰难对他们会有好处。1of考查介词。此处指他会忽视父母的努力。be ignorant of sth. “不知道，不了解”。2will assume考查动词的时态。根据语境，此处指的是还未发生的动作，从句“When he starts work”用一般现在时，主句应用一般将来时。下文中的“when he bees a manager, he will never know the sufferings . ”亦是提示。3employees考查词性转换。他永远也不会知道他下属的痛苦。空前的“his”表明，此处应用名词，且此处用名词复数形式表泛指。4who考查定语从句的引导词。分析句子结构可知，空处引导定语从句，修饰先行词person，并在定语从句中作主语，故用who。5successful考查词性转换。分析句子结构可知，空处在句中作表语，故用形容词successful。6a考查冠词。此处指让你的孩子住在一个大房子里，表泛指，故用不定冠词，结合空后的big可知，应填a。7it考查代词。你割草时让他们来体验一下。此处用it指代割草这件事。8because考查连词。这样做并不是因为你没钱雇女仆。空后解释的是原因，故用because。注意：本句为省略的强调句，只能用because，不用since/as/for。9to understand考查非谓语动词。want sb.to do sth.为固定用法，意为“想要某人做某事”。10how考查疑问词。分析句子结构可知，此处是“疑问词不定式”结构作宾语，且表示“如何”，故用how。三、完形填空。It was an unforgettable weekend.I had a great time at the 1 However，after I reached

It was bought with the money I had been saved for months. Too upset was I that I could hardly concentrate in what the teacher was saying. After class, my head teacher called me out and asked if or not I had lost something. It turned out that my MP3 player slipped out of my pockets while I was walking. And fortunately, a young lady walked behind me noticed it. She found the school guard and gave them to him.How excited and how deep moved I was to get my MP3 player back! I want to be kind person like the lady.答案：This morning I lost my MP3 player on my way to school. It was bought with the money I had saved for months. upset was I that I could hardly concentrate what the teacher was saying. After class, my head teacher called me out and asked or not I had lost something. It turned out that my MP3 player slipped out of my while I was walking. fortunately, a young lady behind me noticed it. She found the school guard and gave to him.How excited and how moved I was to get my MP3 player back! I want to be kind person like the lady.难项分析：第一处：去掉been考查动词的语态。此句中the money为先行词，其后为省略了关系词which/that的定语从句。从句中I和save之间是主动关系，所以此处不能用被动语态。第四处：ifwhether考查宾语从句。asked后的句子是宾语从句。宾语从句可用if/whether “是否”来引导，但whether可与or not连用，if则不可，故应将if改为whether。第十处：kind前加a考查冠词。person为可数名词，且此处表泛指，故其前应加不定冠词，表示“一个善良的人”。五、七选五。While you are travelling abroad, cultural mistakes are more serious than linguistic mistakes, which can lead to serious misunderstanding and even ill feeling between individuals. 1._ Touching Someone2_ In Mediterranean countries, if you dont touch someones arm when talking to them or if you dont greet them with kisses or a warm hug, youll be considered cold. But backslap(拍背) someone who isnt a family member or a good friend in Korea, and youll make them unfortable. In Thailand, the head is considered sacrednever even pat a child on the head.Talking over DinnerIn some countries, like China, Japan and some African nations, the food is the thing, so dont start chatting about your days adventures while everyone else is digging into dinner.3_ Its not because your group is unfriendly, but because mealtimes are for eating, not talking.Removing Your Shoes or NotTake off your shoes when arriving at the door of a London dinner party and the hostess will find you uncivilized, but fail to remove your shoes before entering a home in Asia, Hawaii, or the Pacific Islands and youll be considered disrespectful. So, if you see a row of shoes at the door, start undoing your laces. 4._ Once you are on the ground of a different country, remain highly sensitive to native behavior. 5._ And dont feel offended if something seems offensivelike queue jumping. After all, this is a global village, and we are all very different.APersonal space varies as you travel the globe.BAsians consider removing shoes impolite at home.CNever be pletely surprised by anything.DThe linguistic mistake means that someone is not fully expressing his idea.ELook out for the following cultural mistakes and try to avoid them.FIf not, keep the shoes on.GYoull likely be met with silence.【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文，讲述了一些出国旅游时应当注意的文化上的错误。1E解析：该空是一个总结句，用来引出下面要提到的话题，起承上启下的作用，故选E项。2A解析：结合小标题“Touching Someone”及下文提到的不同国家对于触碰有不同的习俗可知，不同的地方对个人空间的理解各不相同。故选A项。3G解析：上文介绍在中国、日本和一些非洲国家，吃饭时不要闲谈。由此可知，吃饭时要保持沉默，只有G项与此相关。故选G项。4F解析：该空与前一句是相反的情况，上文提到“如果你在门口看到一排鞋子，就松开你的鞋带”，接下来就应当描写与之相反的情况，故选F项。5C解析：从空后的“And dont .like queue jumping.”可知，此空与该句表并列关系，也应是“不要”，故选C项。
