One is interest. Knowing about the way people behavemakes your reading more interesting. Another reason is usefulness.If you are going to have a conversation with native speakers of a language you learn, you need to know the sort of topics that interest them once you get past “Hello”. You need to know something about their favorite sports, the current (现时的) government of the country where the language is spoken, current fashions in clothes and outstanding national events in recent times, to mention a few. Showing that you know something about their country can lead to interesting conversations.The way people think is closely connected with language. Languages are one channel through which different cultures present their ideas both within themselves and in contact with others. The fact that a language does not have the same range of words as another language does not mean that they do not value those things as much.Whether or not your main intention to learn a language is to learn about people's cultural backgrounds or to deal with a degree course, you will be learning about it indirectly from various sources about culture like the coursebooks, films, the news, literature or even travel brochures (手册). You could make a long list just by thinking of all the things that are important to the culture such as customs that go back centuries, architecture, traditional ceremonies, the way people relate to each other in families, the value that are important to a society, the sense of humour that people share, movies, music and art. All these cultural aspects are important to language learners if they want to get a better understanding of the language itself.1．Which of the following contributes to a conversation with native speakers?A．Greeting them by saying “Hello”．B．Talking about their religious beliefs.C．Telling them about your favorite sports.D．Mentioning interesting topics in their culture.2．What role does a language play in the culture?A．It offers the same range of words as another language.B．It is a channel through which people present their ideas.C．It values people's ideas and thoughts to a certain degree.D．It deals with the relationship between thoughts and language.3．The last paragraph mainly deals with ________.A．people's main purpose to learn a foreign languageB．the importance to learn about cultural backgroundsC．different cultural sources and main cultural aspectsD．how people think and what is valued by a society4．What might be the best title for this passage?A．What is a culture aboutB．Why do we learn cultureC．What to learn in a cultureD．How to learn about cultureⅢ.任务型读写(2013·皖南八校高三第三次联考)Do you love travelling? If the answer is yes, then have you ever thought about why? You may maintain that travelling can help you expand your scope of knowledge, especially geographical and historical learning. It will provide more chances for you to enjoy food and try on clothes that you otherwise cannot possibly have. A famous English author Francis Bacon (1561—1626) makes a point when he says that, “Travel, in the younger sort, is a part of education; in the elder, a part of experience.”Evidence of leisure travel can be traced (追溯) as far back as ancient Babylon. But this sort of travel only really took off after World War Ⅱ. This year, according to the World Travel & Tourism Council, the 1 billionth tourist will cross an international boundary before the end of this month. That means that one in seven people on the planet travelled this year, something that would not have been possible a few decades ago. Around 20 years ago only the rich could travel.While the US and France remain the two largest destinations for world travel, experts say much of the explosive growth in tourism has been to countries like Guatemala, the Dominican Republic, and the Ivory Coast, which weren't even on the world tourism map a decade ago. The top five destinations in the world, according to the United Nations World Tourism Organization, are Paris, London, New York, the Mediterranean and Turkey.Several factors have led to the boom in world travel. The prosperity of people in Asia is one factor. People in Asian developing countries have lifted their incomes above middle-class levels in the past few years. “And a lot of them have used their new wealth to travel. In addition, travel costs have been reduced thanks to the rapid development of transportation and competition between airlines to give customers the best prices.答案Ⅰ.1.选D由空后的“去哪儿对我来说都一样”可知，答话人是让对方做决定。

One billion people are learning it and it is said that by 2050, half of the world's population will be using it. What are we talking about? That global language—English.The English language started in Britain in the 5th century. It is a mixed language. It was built up when German. Scandinavian and French invaders settled in England and created a common language for communication.Today it is the official language of the UK, the USA, Australia, New Zealand, Canada,South Africa and Ireland as well as many islands in the Caribbean . Many other countries and regions use it for politics and business, for example, India. Pakistan, Nigeria and the Philippines. English is also one of the official languages of Hong Kong.But global advertising and pop music mean that in most countries, you will see or hear some English. Thanks to McDonalds, we all know about "burgers". "fries" and "milkshakes". Songs by Madonna, Britney Spears and Celine Dion are in English. We can sing along, even if we do not understand what we are singing!English is a messy (杂乱的) language.

Also included are words that teenagers use. Who does not know "cool", "OK" and “hello” ?Other languages also influence English. Many English words come from French. Words like "cafe" and expressions like "c'est la vie" (that is life) are all part of the English language. On the other hand, the French language includes English words like "le weekend" and "le camping". German words are also part of English. Words like "kindergarten" come from the German language.Recently, British people have become interested in "yoga". But the word comes from an ancient Hindu language in India.46.

Unit 2 English around the worldⅠ.阅读理解A(2018·河南新乡期中)Homestay provides English language students with the opportunity to speak English outside the classroom and the experience of being part of a British home. WhattoExpectThe host will provide accommodation and meals.Rooms will be cleaned and bedcovers changed at least once a week.You will be given the house key and the host is there to offer help and advice as well as to take an interest in your physical and mental health.AccommodationZonesHomestays are located in London mainly in Zones 2,3 and 4 of the transport system.Most hosts do not live in the town centre as much of central London is commercial and not residential(居住的).Zones 3 and 4 often offer larger accommodation in a less crowded area.It is very convenient to travel in London by Underground. MealPlansAvailable□Continental Breakfast□Breakfast and Dinner□Breakfast,Packed Lunch and DinnerIt’s important to note that few English families still provide a traditional cooked breakfast.Your accommodation includes Continental Breakfast which normally consists of fruit juice,cereal(谷物类食品),bread and tea or coffee.Cheese,fruit and cold meat are not normally part of a Continental Breakfast in England.Dinners usually consist of meat or fish with vegetables followed by desert,fruit and coffee.FriendsIf you wish to invite a friend over to visit,you must first ask your host’s permission.You have no right to entertain friends in a family home as some families feel it is an invasion of their privacy.Self-CateringAccommodationinPrivateHomesAccommodation on a room-only basis includes shared kitchen and bathroomfacilities and often a main living room.This kind of accommodation offers an independent lifestyle and is more suitable for the long-stay student.However,it does not provide the same family atmosphere as an ordinary homestay and may not benefit those who need to practise Engl ish at home quite as much.1.The passage is probably written for .A.hosts willing to receive foreign studentsB.foreigners hoping to build British cultureC.travellers planning to visit families in LondonD.English learners applying to live in English homes2.According to the passage,what does Continental Breakfast include?A.Dessert and coffee.B.Fruit and vegetables.C.Bread and fruit juice.D.Cereal and cold meat.3.Why do some people choose self-catering accommodation?A.To experience a warmer family atmosphere.B.To enrich their knowledge of English.C.To entertain friends as they like.D.To enjoy much more freedom.〚导学号23280015〛BThe best-known example of external(外部的) influence causing language change is the “Americanization” of world culture,which has caused English words to appear in city streets all over the world.The effect is most noticeable in pop music.Foreign groups often record in English,and the words are picked up and repeated in the same language everywhere,even by children who otherwise have little or no command of the language.I once met a Brazilian child of about ten who could count“one,two,three”,but only by adding the words “o’clock,four o’clock rock” at the end.Some people are often strongly critical of the influence of English on their language—especially when an English word replaces a traditional word.In 1977,France passed a law banning the use of English words in official situations if anequivalent(意义相同的) French expression existed—but the law seemed to be honoured more in the breaking than in the observing.Some other countries have considered introducing a similar law despite the evidence that such laws have very little effect,and that the arrival of loan words(外来词) can greatly enrich a language(as indeed in the case of English itself,which has a long history of welcoming foreign words).However,not everyone is critical.In particular,comm ercial firms and advertisers are well aware of the potential selling power that the use of English vocabulary can bring.In Japan,English is even used in television commercials,despite the fact that the majority of viewers would not understand exactly what was being said:theexcellence implied by the mere use of English is apparently enough to command the strategy to the advertisers.Most of the influence of English is upon the vocabulary of foreign languages,but surveys are slowly bringing to light several cases where word order or word structure has been affected.Sentences of the type “The book sells well”,using an active construction for a passive meaning,have begun to appear inDanish(Bogensoelgergodt).Several languages keep the English plural ending when they make use of a loan word,and do not translate it into the native form,e.g.drinks.There are many other such cases.4.Why could the Brazilian child speak “one,two,three” in English?A.Because he had seen these words everywhere in the street.B.Because he had learnt how to tell the time in English.C.Because he had made himself master of English.D.Because he had heard these words in a song a lot.5.What can we infer about the law passed in France in 1977?A.It was strict.B.It was unfair.C.It was often ignored.D.It was strongly opposed.6.Some Japanese commercials use English in the hope of .A.following the American trendB.becoming world-famousC.enriching JapaneseD.increasing sales7.The last paragraph is mainly developed by .A.providing examplesB.making comparisonsC.explaining grammar rulesD.analyzing language change〚导学号23280016〛Ⅱ.七选五阅读(2018·安徽皖南八校第三次联考)Everybody in this world is different from one another.But do you know that understanding differences can help you better manage

He wrote plays and poems during the late fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries, which remain very popular today.During earlier times, people would probably have learned several ancient Roman and Greek plays. It was not unusual for writers to produce more current versions of these works. For example, in Shakespeare's play The Comedy of Errors Shakespeare borrowed certain details from the ancient Roman writer Plautus. For his play Macbeth, Shakespeare most likely used a work on Scottish history by Raphael Holinshed for information. Shakespeare might have borrowed from other writers, but the intensity(强度)of his imagination and language made the plays his own. While many plays by other writers of his time have been forgotten, Shakespeare and his art live on.Shakespeare was also influenced by the world around him. He described the sights and sounds of London in his plays. His works include observations about political struggles, the fear of diseases, and the popular language of the city's tradesmen. Shakespeare's knowledge of the English countryside is also clear. His works include descriptions of deep forests, local flowers, and the ancient popular traditions of rural people.It would be impossible to list all of the ways in which Shakespeare's works have influenced the world culture. But the first and greatest example would be his great influence on the English language. During his time, the English language waschanging. Many new words from other languages were being added. Shakespeare used his sharp mind and poetic inventiveness to create hundreds of new words and rework old ones. For example, he created the noun forms of“critic”，“mountaineer”and“eyeball”. Many common expressions in English come from his plays, including“pomp and circumstance(装腔作势)”from Othello，“full circle(绕圈子地)”from King Lear, etc. The list of cultural creations influenced by Shakespeare is almost endless. From paintings to television to music and dance, Shakespeare was well represented. Shakespeare's plays have been translated into every major language in the world.Shakespeare became a wellknown writer during a golden age of theater. His years of hard work paid off.11. What can we infer from the passage?A．Many of Shakespeare's works were influenced by earlier writings.B．Shakespeare was hardworking when he was a student.C．The experience of living in London helped a lot with Shakespeare's works.D．Shakespeare became rich later because of the popularity of his works.12. Shakespeare might have learnt some information from ancient Roman worksin________．A．King LearB．The Comedy of ErrorsC．MacbethD．Othello13. Why could Shakespeare's works survive his time?A．Because there were so few people writing plays in his time.B．Because he produced too many works that nobody else could do.C．Because he was a rich and influential person of his time.D．Because his works were rich in imagination and language.14. Shakespeare's greatest influence should be on________．A．the English languageB．paintingsC．televisionD．music and dance15. The passage is mainly about ________．A．an introduction to Shakespeare's life and his worksB．the main features and styles of Shakespeare's playsC．how ancient culture influenced Shakespeare and he influenced cultureD．Shakespeare's greatest influence on the world cultureBThe number of speakers of English in Shakespeare's time is estimated to have been about five million. Today it is estimated that some 260 million people speak it as a native language, mainly in the United States, Canada, Great Britain, Ireland, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand. In addition to the standard varieties of English found in these areas, there are a great many regional and social varieties of the language as well as various levels of usage that are employed both in its spoken and written forms.In fact, it is impossible to estimate the number of people in the world who have acquired an adequate working knowledge of English in addition to their ownlanguages. The purpose for which English is learned and the situations in which such learning takes place are so varied that it is difficult to explain and still more difficult to judge what forms an adequate working knowledge for each situation.The main reason for the widespread demand for English is its presentday importance as a world language. Besides serving the indefinite needs of its native speakers, English is a language in which some of important works in science, technology, and other fields are being produced, and not always by native speakers. It is widely used for such purposes as meteorological and airport communications, international conferences, and the spread of information over the radio and television networks of many nations. It is a language of wider communication for a number of developing countries, especially former British colonies. Many of these countries have multilingual populations and need a language for internal communication in such matters as government, commerce, industry, law and education as well as for international communication and for access to the scientific and technological developments in the West.16．What would be the best title for this passage?A．The difficulties of learning EnglishB．International communicationsC．The standard varieties of EnglishD．English as a world language17．Which of the following statements is NOT true?A．Some 260 million people in the world have an adequate working knowledge of English.B．There are some 260 million native speakers of English in the world.C．It is almost impossible to estimate the number of people with an adequate working knowledge of English.D．People learn English for a variety of reasons.18．According to the passage, what is the main reason for the widespread useof English?A．It was popular during Shakespeare's time.B．It is used in former British colonies.C．It serves the needs of its native speakers.D．It is a world language that is used for international communication.19．What forms an adequate working knowledge of English?A．The ability to read a newspaper.B．It is difficult to judge because it differs for each situation.C．Being multilingual.D．Being a native speaker.20．What type of developing countries would be most likely to use English?A．Those geographically close to the United States.B．Those interested in the culture of the United States.C．Former colonies of Great Britain.D．Countries where international conferences are held.Ⅲ.基础写作近年来，越来越多的人选择“自驾游”作为假期出游的首选。

限时规范练2(必修1Unit2)核心素养关键词:培养学生人与社会、语言学习的素养能力意识一、阅读理解AI did some research and examined how British English and American English changed between the 1930s and the 2000s.Take spelling,for example — towards the 1960s it looked like the UK was going in the direction of not using the “u” in “colour” and writing “centre” as “center”.But since then,the British have become more confident in some of their own spellings.In the 2000s,the UK used an American spelling choice about 11% of the time while Americans use a British one about 10% of the time.There is also no need to worry too much about American words,such as “vacation”,“liquor” and “lawmaker” entering British English.There are a few examples of this kind of vocabulary change but they are mostly uncommon words and are not likely to change British English too much.The British are still using “mum” rather than “mom” and “petrol” rather than “gas”.But when we start thinking of language more in terms of style than vocabulary or spelling,a different picture appears.Some of the bigger trends in American English are moving towards a freer use oflanguage.American sentences are on average one word shorter in 2006 than they were in 1931.Americans also use a lot more apostrophes (撇号) in their writing than they used to,which has the effect of turning the two words “do not” into the single “don’t”.“The hand of the king”becomes the shorter “The king’s hand”.However,in all these ways Brits are changing too — and in the same way as Americans.They’re just about 30 years behind the trend that Americans seem to be leading.So this raises a question,is British English actively following American English or is this something that is simply a natural trend in language use? Perhaps the British would have gone in that direction even if America had never been discovered? I’d like to agree with the second idea but because of the fact that British people learn plenty of American language through different ways,I think the first is more correct.1.What did the British do in the 1960s?A.They used some American spellings.B.They built up confidence in their language.C.They did research on language differences.D.They went in the direction of harder spellings.2.What does the author try to show by using examples like “petrol”?A.British English has changed a lot.B.Some uncommon words are used less often.C.American words are entering British English.D.American spelling won’t change British English too much.3.Which of the following is a trend of American English?A.It is using shorter words.B.It is turning to proper grammar.C.It is trying to make sentences simpler.D.It is avoiding using apostrophes.4.Which of the following is the author’s opinion about the languages?A.American English is going the wrong way.B.British English is following American English’s example.C.American English is borrowing a lot from British English.nguages wouldn’t change much if America was not discovered.BAfter teaching for 35 years in the North Shore school district,I retired and agreed to teach English to immigrants at the Glen Cove Library two nights a week.It’s been a joy!I started with three students,got as many as 10,but now have settled on what I call “the fantastic five”. They range in age from 23 to 65,one man and four women.They’ve come from El Salvador,Peru,Honduras,Colombia and the Dominican Republic.With one exception,they are married,have children,and are working.Their responsibilities leave them with little free time,but they faithfully come to class.The students always make me smile.On the first day,I asked what surprising things they had discovered about America.Isabelle,from Peru,thought for a moment and then said,“You Americans all stop at red lights!”Blanca,a student from Honduras,arrives with her three young children.Actually,they arrive first,running in,waving to me as they dash to the children’s room as their often-exhausted mother trudges in behind.Blanca’s kids are adorable.I keep forgetting their names,soI call them Blanco,Blanki and Blankette.They giggle at this and their mom smiles.I’ve been asked by friends whether I know the students’immigration stories.I don’t ask.I’m here to help them learn English.Their lives often are not easy.Over the past year,one woman got divorced,and another’s husband suffered a stroke.A third’s husband,a truck driver,was in a horrific accident that left him homebound for more than nine months.But,these students rarely missa class.5.What can we know about the students?A.They are all women over 23.B.They have children and jobs.C.They are a big trouble for the teacher.D.They are busy and miss classes regularly.6.What can we learn about Blanca?A.She is from Peru and has three children.B.She doesn’t like the names the author gives.C.She is respectable to educate her children well.D.She is surprised at Americans’ running red lights.7.What does the underlined word “trudges” probably mean?A.Walk heavily.B.Run quickly.C.Wave unwillingly.D.Dash slowly.8.How does the author feel about the teaching job?A.Tired.B.Helpless.C.Delighted.D.Regretful.二、完形填空A dog found swimming more than 220 kilometers off the coast of Thailand has been returned safely to land.Late last week,workers on an oil rig(石油钻塔) noticed the animal,all 1,in the water.It began 2 toward the side of the structure.The dog was able to get itself onto a solid area.He appeared3,cold and fearful.The workers 4 a rope and secured it around the dog.Then,they worked together to 5 the animal up to safety.The crew that6 the dog quickly gave their new friend a7:Boonrod.The name means something 8 to “survivor” in the Thai language.One of those9was Vitisak Payalaw.He has been 10 updates on Boonrod on his Facebook page.He said it was 11 that the crew noticed the dog in the water.If there had been waves,he said,the animal 12 would not have been seen.No one knows how Boonrod13 all alone at sea,or how long he had been out there.But Vitisak and others have suggested the animal might have fallen off a fishing 14.On Monday,Boonrod arrived on dry15.A team of animal doctors was 16 him in the southern Thai province of Songkhla.Workers at the Songkhla port also 17 the dog with neck rubs and a special “welcome” necklace made of yellow flowers.Many people took 18with Boonrod.Vitisak says that if no one19Boonrod as their pet,he will 20 him with him to his home in northeast Thailand.1.A.alone B.deadC.mobileD.private2.A.dashing B.divingC.jumpingD.swimming3.A.blind B.safeC.tiredD.vague4.A.caught B.loweredC.importedD.preserved5.A.balance B.deliverC.pullD.swing6.A.found B.lostC.abandonedD.treated7.A.home C.partnerD.testeful B.responsibleC.similarD.vital9.A.animals B.friendsC.doctorsD.workers10.A.avoiding B.providingC.downloadingD.subscribing11.A.awful B.curiousC.luckyD.unique12.A.likely B.personallyC.slightlyD.absolutely13.A.ended up B.led toC.moved offD.took apart14.A.thread B.pondC.hookD.boat15.A.carpet ndC.passageD.nest16.A.caring about B.dealing withC.turning toD.waiting for17.A.assessed B.confirmedC.welcomedD.supported18.A.goods B.picturesC.flowersD.gifts19.A.adopt B.employC.recogniseD.guarantee20.A.acquire B.holdC.removeD.take三、短文改错I still remember last year when a new student came to our class.Her name is Liu Kun,which was very weak in English.He became less interested it and almost gave up.As soon as I found he has a problem,I had a talk with him about what to learn English.Since then,I’ve kept help him and with my help,his English level has been improving little to little.He was very happy and thankfully tome.From this,I learned we should try to help others when they are in the trouble.It’s really a good things to help others.参考答案限时规范练2(必修1Unit2)一、【篇章导读】本文是议论文。

She came to this country with her family on a tiny ship during World War I when she was only 8 years old. During the trip she survived stormy seas, little food, and an attack by a German U-boat. After getting here, her large family worked hard to build a new life in America. They never had much money but were rich in love.One day, when I was about 5 or 6 years old, my parents and brothers went on a trip. It was just me and Nanny in the house for the weekend. Nanny seemed so happy to be taking care of me all by herself. She made me a special breakfast that first morning. However, all I could do was to complain about how the food was not how Mom always made it. Nanny quietly put down the plate and went into the living room. I followed a minute later and saw that she had tears in her eyes. It was the first time I had ever seen my strong and proud grandmother cry and I was the one who had caused it.I walked over to Nanny, climbed on her lap, and for the first time in my short life I did something else too. I apologized withoutbeing told to and asked Nanny to forgive me. She smiled, rubbed my head, and told me I was a good boy even though I didn't feel like one then.That memory just like my Nanny's love will stay in my heart forever. It is a sign of both strength and wisdom. Asking for forgiveness helps us to learn, to grow, and to love.21．Nanny's family immigrated to America mainly because ________.A. they suffered starvation in their homelandB. they wanted to start a rich life in the new landC. they tried to get away from the terrible climateD. their country was in war and they needed peace答案与解析D根据第一段中的“Italian immigrant”，“during World War Ⅰ”，“an attack by German U-boat”等相关信息可以推断出正确答案是D项。
