英语北师大版选修6导学笔记Unit16PeriodOne
My husband hasn’t stopped laughing about a funny thing that happened to me.It’s funny now but it wasn’t at the time.Last Friday,after doing all the family shopping in town,I wanted a rest before catching the train,so I bought a newspaper and some chocolate and went into the station coffee shop—that was a cheap selfservice place with long tables to sit at.I put my heavy bag down on the floor,put the newspaper and chocolate on the table to keep a place,and went to get a cup of coffee.When I went back with the coffee,there was someone in the next seat.It was one of those wildlooking youngsters,with dark glasses and worn clothes,and hair colored bright red at the front.Not so unusual these days.What did surprise me was that he’d started to eat my chocolate!Naturally,I was annoyed.However,to avoid trouble—and really I was rather uneasy(不舒服的)about him—I just looked down at the front page of the newspaper,tasted my coffee and took a bit of chocolate.The boy looked at me closely.Then he took a second piece of my chocolate.I could hardly believe it.Still I didn’t dare to start an argument.When he took a third piece,I felt more angry than uneasy.I thought,“Well,I shall have the last piece.” And I got it.The boy gave me a strange look,and then stood up.As he left he shouted out.“This woman’s crazy!”Everyone stared.That was embarrassing(令人尴尬的)enough,but it was worse when I finished my coffee and got ready to leave.My face went red—as red as his hair—when I realized I’d made a mistake.It wasn’t my chocolate that he’d been taking.There was mine,unopened,just under my newspaper.根据短文判断正(T)误(F)1.The woman telling the story had been very busy and needed some time to rest.(T)2.The woman’s face turned red because she realized that the boy was poor and angry.(F) Period One Warmup & Lesson 1Stories from HistoryⅠ.重点单词1.fantasy n.想象(幻想)物fantastic adj.无法实现的;极好的2.abandon v t.放弃,遗弃3.preserve v t.保护,保存4.witness v.目击5.occur v i.发生6.tremble v i.颤抖,发抖7.particularly ad v.特别地;特定地particular adj.特别的;特定的,特有的8.loss n.遗失,丢失lose v.遗失,丢掉lost adj.遗失的,弄丢的,迷路的9.rewind v i.& v t.倒回10.characteristic adj.典型的character n.特点;性格,品质11.gather v i.& v t.聚集12.sorrow n.悲伤,难过13.sympathy n.同情sympathetic adj.同情的;有同情心的14.burst v i.爆炸;冲,闯Ⅱ.重点短语1.e into view 出现2.knock sb.over 撞倒某人3.once upon a time 从前4.block out 堵住5.dig out 挖出6.in a way 从某种程度上说7.on one’s side 侧身;支持(某人)8.on the way to 在去……的路上9.split up(使)解散;决裂10.pay rise 增加工资Ⅲ.重点句式1.过去分词短语作定语Around the end of the first century AD,a Roman writer called(call) Pliny wrote about a terrible volcanic eruption that he had witnessed as a young man.大约公元一世纪末,一位名叫普利尼的罗马作家描述了他年轻时目睹的一场可怕的火山爆发的情景。

北师大版-选修六-unit16-Pompeii-课文及重点词汇
北师大版-选修六-unit16-Pompeii-课文及重点词汇Pompeii: the city that became a time capsuleAround the end of the century AD, a Roman writer called Pliny wrote about a terrible volcanic eruption that he had witnessed as a young man. The eruption has occurred on August 24th, 29 AD. The earth began to tremble and a volcano named Vesuvius, near Pompeii, Italy, erupted. Pliny described a cloud coming down the mountain, blocking out the sun and burying everything in its path, including whole villages and towns.This particularly sad event left a deep impression on Pliny who had lost an uncle in the eruption. Yet, over the centuries, there was a greater loss. The people, towns and villages that had disappeared under the ashes were entirely forgotten by the world.However, more than 1,600 years later, some scientists found the lost towns that had been buried under the ashes. By 1748, they had found an awesome historical site. They had started to dig out the ancient city of Pompeii.In a way, Pompeii is like a “time capsule” preserving a frozen moment in history. Before the eruption occurred, it had been a booming Roman city with temples, markets, restaurants and theatres. Now as you walk along the streets of the city, time rewinds. You can admire the ancient architecture, statues, decorated walls and authentic objects characteristic of the time. However, much more than buildings and objects, it is the forms of the people who were caught in the disaster that have made the city a monument to human history.The bodies of people who had died in Pompeii left impressions in the ash that showed their exact shapes. As you walk, you will pass people gathered together for protection in their last hours of life. One person, sitting alone, looks like he is praying. Another man, lying on his side, looks as if he is trying to get up. One can only feel sorrow and deep sympathy for these once living statues.Today, more than 250 years after scientists found the city, thousands of tourists and hundreds of scientist visit Pompeii every year to learn more about the ancient world. In this way, the city, which the world had once forgotten, lives on nearly 2,000 years after its loss.Key words:V olcanic eruption, buried, event, disappear, disaster, preserved, destroy, discover, scientist1 / 1。

Unit 16 Stories(60分钟81分)Part A一、阅读理解(共8小题;每小题2分,满分16分)APeople have been painting pictures for at least 30,000 years.The earliest pictures were painted by people who hunted animals.They used to paint pictures of the animals they wanted to catch and kill.Pictures of this kind have been found on the walls of caves in France and Spain.No one knows why they were painted there.Perhaps the painters thought that their pictures would help them to catch these animals.Or perhaps human beings have always wanted to tell stories in pictures.About 5,000 years ago the Egyptians and other people in the Near East began to use pictures as a kind of writing.They drew simple pictures or signs to represent things and ideas,and also to represent the sounds of their language.The signs these people used became a kind of alphabet.The Egyptians used to record information and to tell stories by putting picture-writing and pictures together.When an important person died,scenes and stories from his life were painted and carved on the walls of the place where he was buried.Some of these pictures are like modern comic strip(连环漫画)stories.It has been said that Egypt is the home of the comic strip.But,for theEgyptians,pictures still had magic power.So they did not try to make their way of writing simple.The ordinary people could not understand it.By the year 1,000 BC,people who lived in the area around the Mediterranean Sea had developed a simpler system of writing.The signs they used were very easy to write,and there were fewer of them than in the Egyptian system.This was because each sign,or letter,represented only one sound in their language.The Greeks developed this system and formed the letter of the Greek alphabet.The Romans copied the idea,and Roman alphabet is now used all over the world.These days,we can write down a story,or record information,without using pictures.But we still need pictures of all kinds:drawings,photographs,signs and diagrams.We find them everywhere:in books and newspapers,in the street,and on the walls of the places where we live and work.Pictures help us to understand and remember things more easily,and they can make a story much more interesting.(2015·湖北重点中学期中联考) 1.Ancient people in France and Spain painted pictures on the walls of caves probably because .A.they loved animalsB.they enjoyed seeing picturesC.they preferred painting pictures to showing imaginationD.they thought pictures would be helpful in catching animals2.From this passage we know that .A.the Egyptian signs made a particular alphabet come into beingB.the Roman alphabet was developed from Egyptian alphabetC.Egypt is well-known for their comic strip storiesD.people in other parts of the world copied their writing system from the Egyptians3.In the last paragraph,the author thinks that pictures .A.should be made comprehensibleB.are of much use in our lifeC.should be made interestingD.are disappearing from our life4.The possible title of this article may be .A.Pictures and writingB.The best way of writingC.Home of the comic strip storiesD.The earliest language in the world【文章大意】本文是说明文,介绍了人类绘画及绘画演变成文字的历史。

B(2017·青岛市高考模拟)When I began planning to move to Auckland to study,my mother was a little worried about the uncertainty of living in a place that was so different from India,where we lived.She worried particularly about the lack of jobs,the cultural differences and the chance that I would face racism.Despite these worries,I came to New Zealand in July,2009.I have found the place and people very nice and supportive.Soon after I arrived,I realized the importance of getting a job to supply my living expenses.Determined to do this on my own,I spent a whole day going fromdoor to door asking for a job.However,I received little or no response.This became my routine every day after college for a few weeks.One afternoon,I walked into a building to ask if there were any job opportunities.People there were very surprised,and advised me not to continue my job search in that manner.As I was about to leave,a clerk in the building,who had been listening to what the others had said,approached me and asked if I would wait outside.Fifteen minutes later,he returned.He asked me what my plans were and encouraged me to stay confident.He then offered to take me to the Royal Oak area to search for a job.I was a little surprised,but had a good feeling about him,so I went along.Along the way,I realized that I had run out of copies of my resume (简历).The man stopped at his business partner's office to make me 15 extra copies.He also gave me tips on dressing and speaking,and added that I should give him a call if I ever needed anything.I handed out my resumes and went home feeling very satisfied.The following day,I received a call from a store in Royal Oak offering me a job.It seems that the world always gives back to you when you need it.And this time,it was a complete stranger who turned out to be a real blessing.4.What wasn't the author's mother worried about?A.People might look down on the author.B.The author couldn't speak the local language.C.The author wasn't familiar with local customs.D.It might be difficult for the author to find a job.5.After staying in New Zealand for a short time,the author .A.decided to go back to his own countryB.felt the local people were not very friendlyC.had to find a job to cover his living expensesD.wanted to get a job that needed practical skills6.When the author went into a building to look for a job,.A.a clerk gave him encouragement and adviceB.he was confident that he would find a good oneC.he found many college students like him already thereD.a clerk recommended him to the company he worked for7.What is the story mainly about?A.How a stranger offered the author a job.B.How a stranger turned out to be a real blessing.C.How the author adapted himself to a new situation.D.How the author was helped to get a job by a stranger.【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。
