Unit 2 Language一、阅读理解。
Two of the saddest words in the English language are “if only”. I live my life with the goal of never having to say those words, because they convey regret, lost opportunities, mistakes, and disappointment.My father is famous in ou r family for saying, “Take the extra minute to do it right.” I always try to live by the “extra minute” rule. When my children were young and likely to cause accidents, I always thought about what I could do to avoid an “if only ” moment, whether it was so mething minor like moving a cup full of hot coffee away from the edge of a computer, or something that required a little more work such as taping padding (衬垫) onto the sharp corners of a glass coffee table.I don’t only avoid those “if only” moments when it comes to safety. It’s equally important to avoid “if only” in our personal relationships. We all know people who lost a loved one and regretted that they had foregone an opportunity to say “I love you” or “I forgive you”. When my father announced he was going to the eye doctor across from my office on Good Friday, I told him that it was a holiday for my company and I wouldn’t be there. But then I thought about the fact that he’s 84 years old and I realized that I shouldn’t give up an opportunity to see hi m. I called him and told him I had decided to go to work on my day off after all.I know there will still be occasions when I have to say “if only” about something, but my life is definitely better because of my policy of doing everything possible to avoid that eventuality(可能发生的事). And even though it takes an extra minute to do something right, or it occasionally takes an hour or two in my busy schedule to make a personal connection, I know that I’m doing the right thing. I’m buying myself peace of mind and that’s the best kind of insurance for my emotional well-being.1.Which of the following is an example of the “extra minute” rule ?A. Start the car the moment everyone is seated.B. Leave the room for a minute with the iron working.C. Wait for an extra minute so that the steak tastes better.D. Move an object out of the way before it trips someone.2.The author decided to go to her office on Good Friday to __________.A. keep her appointment with the eye doctorB. meet her father who was already an old manC. join in the holiday celebration of the companyD. finish her work before the deadline approaching3.The underlined word “foregone” in Paragraph 3 is closed in meaning to “_________”.A. abandonedB. lackedC. avoidedD. wasted4.What is the best title for the passage ?A. The Emotional Well-beingB. The Two Saddest WordsC. The Most Useful RuleD. The Peace of Mind【文章大意】这篇文章主要讲解的是作者对于最悲哀的两个单词if only 的理解及看法。

flowers.But,according to a new study,we should be placing a higher value on motherhood all year.Mothers have long known that their home workload was just as heavy as paid work.Now,the new study has shown that if they were paid for their parental labours,they would earn as much as £172,000 a year.The study looked at the range of jobs mothers do,as well as the hours they are working,to determine the figure.This would make their yearly income £30,000 more than the Prime Minister earns.By analysing the numbers,it found the average mother works 119 hours a week,40 of which would usually be paid at a standard rate and 79 hours as overtime.After questioning 1,000 mothers with children under 18,it found that,on most days,mums started their routine work at 7 am and finished at around 11 pm.To calculate just how much mothers would earn from that labour,it suggested some of the roles that mums could take on,including housekeeper,part-time lawyer,personal trainer andentertainer.Being a part-time lawyer,at £48.98 an hour,would prove to be the most profitable of the“mum jobs”,with psychologist(心理学家)a close second.It also asked mothers about the challenges they face,with 80 per cent making emotional(情感的)demand as the hardest thing about motherhood.Over a third of mums felt they needed more training and around half said they missed going out with friends.The study shows mothers matter all year long and not just on Mother’s Day.The emotional,physical and mental energy mothers devote to their children can be never-ending,but children are also sources of great joy and happiness.Investing(投入)in time for parenting and raising relationships is money well spent.1.How much would a mother earn a year if working as the Prime Minister?A.£30,000.B.£142,000.C.£172,000.D.£202,000.2.The biggest challenge for most mothers is from .A.emotional demandB.low pay for workC.heavy workloadck of training3.What is stressed in the last paragraph?A.Mothers’ importance shows in family all year long.B.The sacrifices mothers make are huge but worthwhile.C.Mothers’ devotion to children can hardly be calculated.D.Investing time in parenting would bring a financial return.4.What can we conclude from the study?A.Mothers’ working hours should be largely reduced.B.Mothers should balance their time for work and rest.C.Mothers’ labour is of a higher value than it is realised.D.Mothers should be freed from housework for social life.B(2015课标Ⅰ,D)Conflict is on the menu tonight at the cafe La Chope.This evening,as on every Thursday night,psychologist Maud Lehanne is leading two of France’s favorite pastimes,coffee drinking and the“talking cure”.Here they are learning to get in touch with their true feelings.It isn’t always easy.The customers—some thirty Parisians who pay just under $2(plus drinks)per session—are quick to intellectualize(高谈阔论),slow to open up and connect.“You are forbidden to say‘one feels,’or‘people think’,”Lehanne told them.“Say ‘Ithink,’‘Think me’.”A cafe society where no intellectualizing is allowed?It couldn’t seem more un-French.But Lehanne’s psychology cafe is about more than knowing oneself:It’s trying to help the city’s troubled neighborhood cafes.Over the years,Parisian cafes have fallen victim to changes in the French lifestyle—longer working hours,a fast-food boom and a younger generation’s desire to spend more time at home.Dozens of new theme cafes appear to change the situation.Cafes focused around psychology,history,and engineering are catching on,filling tables well into the evening.The city’s“psychology cafes”,which offer great comfort,are among the most popular places.Middle-aged homemakers,retirees,and the unemployed come to such cafes to talk about love,anger,and dreams with a psychologist.And they come to Lehanne’s group just to learn to s ay what they feel.“There’s a strong need in Paris for communication,”says Maurice Frisch,a cafe La Chope regular who works as a religious instructor in a nearby church.“People have few real friends.And they need to open up.”Lehanne says she’d like to see psychology cafes all over France.“If people had normal lives,these cafes wouldn’t exist,”she says.“If life weren’t a battle,people wouldn’t need a special place just to speak.”But then,it wouldn’t be France.1.What are people encouraged to do at the cafe La Chope?A.Learn a new subject.B.Keep in touch with friends.C.Show off their knowledge.D.Express their true feelings.2.How are cafes affected by French lifestyle changes?A.They are less frequently visited.B.They stay open for longer hours.C.They have bigger night crowds.D.They start to serve fast food.3.What are theme cafes expected to do?A.Create more jobs.B.Supply better drinks.C.Save the cafe business.D.Serve the neighborhood.4.Why are psychology cafes becoming popular in Paris?A.They bring people true friendship.B.They give people spiritual support.C.They help people realize their dreams.D.They offer a platform for business links.Ⅲ.短文改错(2015四川)下面短文中有10处语言错误。

课后分层集训必修三Unit 2 Language (A卷)Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2017·成都高三二诊)Facebook chief operating officer Sheryl Sandberg and Anna Maria Chavez,chief of Girl Scouts of the USA,are leading a campaign to discourage the use of the word “bossy”.Does the term destroy the confidence of young girls?The campaign claims that terms lik e “bossy” are improperly applied to females,preventing schoolgirls from seeing themselves as future “leaders”.From its first application,the word has been definitely connected more with women than with men.It first appeared in 1882,according to the Oxford English Dictionary,mentioning “a lady manager who was extremely bossy”.As later as 2008,the word appeared in reference to females four times more often than males,claim the Ban Bossy campaigners.“To men,the reference is always in association with women,”says Helen Trim,director of FreshMinds.“I have three brothers and my family still call me ‘bossy’ today.”Her father is the only other family member who could be considered in that way,says Trim,but nobody would ever call him so.Some educators recommend that the word should be reclaimed,rather than banned.“But the thing with ‘bossy’ is that there's an infantile (幼稚的) element to it,”says Sara Mills,professor at Sheffield University.“You think of ‘bossy’ as being like a little kid who's claiming more than h e has the right to claim.”It's not just “bossy” under_fire.“Pushy” is another target.The implication is that women shouldn't present themselves as powerful and confident,Mills suggests,which some women are willing to listen to and accept.Trim points out that many modern female business role models are able to be bosses without being labeled “bossy”.And she rarely,if ever,hears the word used within her company.But she says that the damage may be done much earlier in a woman's life.“It does come about from those early teenage years,” she says.“I think it's impossible to ban a word,but if people are replacing it with words like ‘confidence’ or ‘assertiveness’,we would all be in a much better place.”【语篇解读】本文讲述了Facebook的首席运营官谢丽尔·桑德伯格和美国女童子军首席执行长安娜·玛利亚·查韦斯二人最新发起的Ban Bossy运动不鼓励使用“专横”这个词描述女性,旨在鼓励培养女性的领导力。

Unit 2 Language一、阅读理解。
Aging brings wrinkles, sagging bodies and frustrating forgetfulness. But getting older is not all bad for many people. Mounting evidence suggests aging may be a key to happiness. There is conflicting research on the subject, however, and experts say it may all boil down to this: Attitude is everything.Older adults tend to be more optimistic and have a more positive outlook on life than their younger and stressed opposites. The big question is why seniors are happier. A recent study suggests one reason: Older adults remember the past through happy memories. Aging can bring more cheer as people become more comfortable with themselves and their roles in society. The older adults said they were enjoying more time with their family, spending more time on hobbies and having greater financial security and did not have to work.But others are doubtful about the link between happiness and growing older."The notion that those in old age are happiest is misleading," said Richard Easterlin, a professor of economics at the University of Southern California. "It is based on comparing people of different ages who are the same in terms of income, health, family life." Easterlin added, "When you take account of the fact that older people have lower income than younger, are less healthy, and more likely to be living alone, then you will find it hard to accept that they are happier.In fact, scientists have found that as people age, their health declines and social networks disappear as their friends die, which can make the elderly less happy.Even if one does give in to age's dark side, health and happiness don't always gohand-in-hand. It's all about attitude. Research by the University of Chicago’s Yang suggests that attitude about life and happiness, is partly shaped by the era in which a person was born. It turns out that individuals who adapt the best to changes also have the highest expected levels of happiness.Despite the conflicting findings about aging and happiness, the good news is that there doesn’t appear to be a limit to how much happiness one can achieve in one’s life. “Most people desire happiness,” Easterlin said. “To my knowledge, no one has identified a limit to attainable happiness.”1.What does the last paragraph mainly tell us?A. The key factor to older adults’ happinessB. There is a conflict between aging and happinessC. No one can define the limit to happiness.D. The relationship between health and happiness.2.Why are some seniors happier according to some experts?A. They focus on what makes them feel good.B. They have their own circle of friends.C. They have better income after retirement.3.What can we learn from the passage?A. People of the same age have the same sense of happiness.B. Attitude may play a very important role in happiness.C. People who adapt the best to changes are more likely to be unhappy.D. Older adults who have more valuable life experience are more optimistic.4.What’s the topic discussed in the passage?A. Whether aging or attitude brings happiness.B. Why seniors adapt the best to changes in society.C. What the limit to an elder person’s happiness is.D.

课后分层集训必修三Unit 2 Language (B卷)Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2017·湖南省东部六校高三联考)I was born and raised in England in a culture where privacy and “keeping yourself to yourself” were valued traditions.Speaking to strangers was not encouraged.People were most hospitable(好客的) and friendly—but only once they had been introduced to new people.However,I have been lucky enough to spend some time in both Italy and the US,where I found traditions of hospitality and politeness to be very different.I experienced Italian hospitality firsthand on a crowded railway carriage travelling,one afternoon,from Genoa to Florence.Sinking gratefully into an empty seat,I was berated (训斥) in rapid Italian by a gentleman who was returning to this seat—it had not been “spare” after all.I apo logized in English,and got up to allow him back into the seat.The gentleman obviously had no understanding of the English language,but he,too,realized my genuine mistake.He smiled and gestured for me to remain in the seat,and he himself remained standing in the corridor for the remainder of the journey.The other occupants of the carriage smiled and nodded at me and made me feel quite welcome amongst them.I feel that if this had been in England,a foreigner who made a mistake would not always be so kindly treated.Transport also featured in the differences I noticed between English and American culture.I flew to New York on a plane with mainly English passengers.We sat together in near silence.Nobody spoke to me nor,as I expected,to anyone else they did not know.They felt it was not polite to intrude on someone else's privacy.However,when I travelled across the United States,whether by plane or Greyhound bus,I was never short of conversation.Conversation was going on all around me and whoever sat next to me was happy to introduce themselves and ask me about myself.They obviously felt it would have been rude not to speak to another person,whether they were strangers or not.【语篇解读】本文作者通过自己的旅行经历说明了不同文化中人们对于“好客”和“礼貌”的表达方式不一样。
1.What do we know about the occupants of the carriage when the author was travelling in Italy?A.They all laughed at the author for his mistake.B.They were all on the side of the gentleman.C.They would not bear a mistake like the author's in public.D.They all showed their understanding of the author's mistake.D2.The author finally believes the Italian people are ________.A.cold B.rudeC.hospitable D.helpfulC3.According to the last paragraph,English passengers sat in near silence because ________.A.they were all strangers to each otherB.they were too tired to speakC.privacy was a valued tradition in EnglandD.everybody had their own share of privacyC4.The purpose of the author is to tell us ________.A.his travelling experienceB.cultural differences to show hospitality and politenessC.the culture shock he experienced in Italy and the USD.how to adapt ourselves to a new cultureBB(2017·山西阳高一中高三检测)When you are in another country,it is important to know the language,but it is equally important to know how to communicate nonverbally.Before saying anything,people communicate nonverbally by making gestures.According to an investigation,only 30 to 35 percent of our communication is verbal.When people don't know the language,the most common way to communicate is through gestures.However,many gestures have different meanings,or no meaning at all,in different parts of the world.In the United States,for example,nodding your head up and down means “yes”.In some parts of Greece and Turkey,however,this motion can mean “no”.In Southeast Asia,nodding your he ad is a polite way of saying “I've heard you.”In ancient Rome,when the emperor wanted to spare someone's life,he would put his thumb up.Today in the United States,when someone puts his/her thumb up,it means“Everything is all right.”However,in Sardinia and Greece,the gesture is insulting (侮辱)and should not be used there.In the United States,raising your clasped(握紧的) hands above your head means “I'm the champion” or “I'm the winner”.It is the sign that prizefighters make when they win a fight.When a leading Russian statesman(政治家)made this gesture after a White House meeting,Americans misunderstood and thought he meant he was a winner.In Russia,however,it is a sign of friendship.There are other nonverbal signals that people should be aware of when they go to another country,such as the distance to maintain between speakers.Americans stand closer to each other than English people.English people don't like touching somebody or being touched.Now in America,touch is important.For example friends touch each other on the arm.They often put an arm around a friend when they say “hello” or “goodbye”.【语篇解读】当我们去一个国家时,知道如何用该国的语言交流诚然很重要,但知道怎样通过手势语交流也同样重要。
