高中英语Unit3AtasteofEnglishhumour培优练习（含答案）

Unit 3 A taste of English humour培优练习Ⅰ.阅读理解AA nation's humor is linked to the historical development of the country. How funny somebody finds a certain thing depends on many things including ages，personal experiences，levels of education and locations. Therefore，humor is something that is not always transferable (可转移的) in another country.What about when both countries speak the same mother tongue？Does that mean they will then share the same sense of humor，or can differences still take place？Let's take the example of Britain and America. Time and time again，people say that Brits and Americans don't “get” each other's sense of humor. It is often argued that one of the most common differences between the British and American sense of humor is that Americans don't understand irony (反话)．Simon Pegg explores this topic in depth in his article What Are You Laughing At？He concludes that this statement isn't true and I agree with him.In fact，Brits use irony on a daily basis while Americans don't. I think Americans understand British irony (most of the time anyway)；what they don't understand is the need to use it so frequently. When Americans use irony，they tend to say that they are “only kidding”．They feel the need to make a joke more obvious than Brits do. Maybe this comes from a fear of offending (冒犯) people.The American sense of humor is generally more slapstick (闹剧的) than that in Britain. I think this arises from a cultural difference between the two. Their jokes are more obvious and forward，a bit like Americans themselves. British jokes，on the other hand，tend to be more subtle．This may stem from the fact that British culture is more reserved (矜持的) than American culture.1．What does Paragraph 1 mainly show?A．Humor is difficult to get.B．Humor is influenced by culture.C．Not all people have a sense of humor.D．It is important to have a sense of humor.2．What is the author's point of view in Paragraph 2?A．Americans don't get Brits' humor.B．Americans know how to use irony.C．Simon Pegg is professional in using irony.D．Britain and America share the same sense of humor.3．What can we learn about Brits and Americans from Paragraph 3?A．Americans' jokes often offend people.B．Brits' irony is not easy to understand.C．They are different in how often to use irony.D．They are not sure about the need to use irony.4．What does the underlined word “subtle” mean?A．Hidden. B．Funny.C．Obvious.D．Special.BHobbies in general are becoming something of the past. Our lives are already filled with classes，homework，working，relationships and sleeping. When we do have a spare moment，it is all too easy to spend it on the endless entertainment and media that are right at our fingertips.I do not doubt that there are some people who could become a great writer or musician. I only fear that so many people are busy pursuing their education and their careers，but they never even see the potential (潜能) they have. The next great photographer or singer could be going to college right now. But they might not even know they have a gift for photographing or singing if they've never picked up a camera or a guitar.Of course，the final goal of pursuing a new hobby shouldn't be to become rich and famous. For most people，a hobby is just something they enjoy doing for the purpose of the thing itself. Such hobbies are still very useful. Studies have shown that people who have a hobby are less likely to have stress and more likely to have more meaningful lives.Most importantly，a hobby is just something you do to make you happy. I hate to break it to you，but we all have a long lifetime of work and stress ahead of us. It will make things much easier if we can practice the piano or make some collections after work.Sure，it's not easy to start a new hobby while going to school，but it will likely never get easier than it is right now. So think about the thing that youhave always wanted to try but were too embarrassed or busy or whatever. You never know，you might become the world's next great people. If not，you'll at least be a little more well-rounded，more interesting and less stressed.5．What does Paragraph 1 mainly show?A．All people should learn to relax.B．Today's people have little time for hobbies.C．People in the past took their hobbies seriously.D．People's lives have been negatively affected by media.6．What does the author think of hobbies?A．They may take up too much time.B．They can help us enjoy a better life.C．They sometimes can bring us stress.D．They should make us famous one day.7．What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph mean?A．We should start a hobby now.B．Starting a new hobby isn't easy.C．We'd better develop a hobby at school.D．Developing a hobby will get easier as time goes by.8．What's the author's purpose in writing the text?A．To introduce some helpful hobbies.B．To encourage us to have a hobby.C．To tell us how to create a happy life.D．To tell us how to find our potential.Ⅱ.阅读七选五Having good study habits is key to success in college. 1 To begin making the change，you need to get organized to study.Create a fixed study space. Find a quiet space in your room or somewhere on campus where you can focus. Studying in the same place every day makes your brain combine a certain environment with work. 2Find a regular time for studying. If you study at the same time each day，your brain will be prepared for learning when you sit down. Review your schedule and see when you have free time. 3 You can study during gaps between classes or in the evening after your classes are done for the day.4 Make sure you have everything you need to study at your study space.If you're studying in a place in your home，keep things like your books，pencils，pens，and paper in that area. If you go out to study，you can take a book bag and keep all your studying materials stored there.Avoid distractions (干扰)．When you prepare your study space，it's important to keep it away from distractions. Remove any technologies that will take your mind off your work，like your iPad. 5 Besides，keep other distracting materials such as outside reading，away from your study area.A．Organize your materials.B．Start with difficult material first.C．Your room may be an ideal place for studying.D．This will help you quickly get into the state of study.E．Schedule an hour or two for studying during those times each day.F．However，many students find their former study habits are not suitable for college.G．You can also use apps to stop distracting websites like Facebook while you're studying.Ⅲ.语法填空I was only in China for about 4 months last year. I stayed in Shanghai and visited some other cities 1.(include) Beijing. While the price feels a bit too much for a high speed train，the Chinese infrastructure (基础建设) is 2. (true) far ahead of any other developing country and even some developed ones in Europe. The train stations are as big 3. airports：almost everything in 4. (they) is like airports. They have all the high standards of airports but without the waiting time. The trains are just like those from Germany or France，5. are clean，modern and highly developed and run at very high speeds. It is about 1，200 kms from Shanghai to Beijing，and each high speed train 6. (take) around 4 and a half hours to reach its destination and 7. are more than 2 trains every hour，each day.I also had the experience of 8.(sit) in Maglev (磁力悬浮列车) in Shanghai. There is a public maglev train that runs from Shanghai city to its international airport. The 9.(distant) from the city to the airport is 40 kms and the speed of the train is 430 kms/hr. It took us just around 6 mins 10. (cover)40 kms and it felt rather smooth.答案及解析Ⅰ.阅读理解A【语篇解读】　本文为说明文，话题是社会文化类。

Unit 3 A taste of English humourⅠ.阅读理解AA trip to LondonMy family had dreamed of a trip to London for a long time.Luckily it was possible for us to realize our dream because all of us were free on the weekend.We planned to drive into Cambridge and caught the 7: 34 train to Liverpool Street Station.Then my wife and I would separate from Joan,my wife’s sister,to do different things and finally meet again for lunch.And after lunch,we would go to the concert.But we were late because of a thick London fog.The train had to move along so slowly that it was not until 10:30 that it got there.In spite of our late arrival,Joan decided that she would go to see the Crown Jewels in the Tower of London while we went shopping.It was only after her sister had disappeared into the fog that my wife realized that we hadn’t decided where we should meet for lunch.Since I had our three tickets for the concert in my pocket,this was indeed a problem.We didn’t have any mobile phones at that time.There seemed to be nothing we could do except taking a taxi to the Tower of London,and trying to find her there.Needless to say,we didn’t find her.It was now one o’clock,and the concert began at 2:30.“Perhaps she will think of waiting outside the concert hall,” said my wife hopefully.By this time the fog was so thick that road traffic had to stop,and the only way to get there was by subway.Hand in hand we felt our way along the road to where we thought the nearest station should be.An hour later we were still trying to find it.Just when I was about to become angry,we met a blind man tapping his way confidently through the fog.With his help we found the subway station which was just fifty meters down the road.By now it was far too late to get to the concert hall before the performance began at 2:30,so we decided to return to Cambridge.It took seven hours instead of the usual two to make that journey.Nor were we able to get any food or drink on the train.We were tired and hungry.We finally reached home at ten.Opening the door we were amazed to find Joan at home; she had seen the Crown Jewels,had managed to get another ticket for the concert,and had had a wonderful dinner at a restaurant.Of course,she managed to get home,too.Oh,my god!1.What did the writer plan to do after lunch that day?A.Go to the concert.B.Return to Cambridge.C.Go shopping.D.See the Crown Jewels.2.The writer and his wife separated from Joan because .A.they were late for the concertB.Joan didn’t want to go to the concertC.there was a thick fogD.they planned to do different things until lunchtime3.Who helped the writer find the subway station?A.A taxi driver.B.A blind man.C.His wife.D.Joan.4.The writer and his wife felt on the train back home.A.quite interestedB.rather disappointedC.tired and hungryD.very enjoyable语篇解读:本文讲述作者一家周末去伦敦的旅行。

He constantly gets into awkward and absurdsituations，which greatly amuses audiences regardless of theirnationalities or culture. The humour is always made clear through a series of simple and funny acts that rely purely on body language，which is universal.One of my favourite shows is that Mr. Bean has a meal in a fancy restaurant. After being seated at his table，Mr. Bean takes out a card，writes a few words on it，seals (密封) it in an envelope and places it on the table. After a moment，he looks back at the envelope but this time he looks surprised，as if he did not know it was there. He opens it to find a birthday card and delightedly puts it on the table for everyone to see.When he looks at the menu，an astonished look swiftly appears on his face. He takes all the money out of his wallet，counts it and puts it in a saucer (茶托)．He then looks from the menu to the money with concern until he finds one thing that makes him smile. Then he orders a dish called “steak tartare”．When the dish arrives，he is shocked to discover that“steak tartare” is actually raw hamburger. He makes an attempt to eat it，but it is clear from the look on his face that he finds the taste truly disgusting．He cannot hide his feelings，except when the waiter asks if everything is all right. When this happens，he smiles and nods，indicating that everything is fine. When the waiter is not looking，however，he busies himself hiding the raw meat anywhere he can reach－the sugar bowl，the tiny flower vase，inside a bun (小圆面包) and under a plate. He becomes so desperate in the end that he even hides some inside the purse of a woman sitting near him and throws some down the trousers of the restaurant's violinist!I like to watch Mr. Bean on TV，but I wouldn't like to meet someone like him in real life and I certainly wouldn't like to have dinner with him!1．From the passage we know Mr. Bean is ．A．famous for directing filmsB．famous for his spoken EnglishC．well known for making filmsD．known for his body language and amusement in his comedies2．Why is Mr. Bean famous all over the world?A．He often eats in special restaurants.B．He entertains the audience from different countries.C．He only acts on TV.D．He acts on body language and spoken language.3．What does the underlined word “disgusting” in the third paragraph mean?A．Tasting delicious. B．Smelling good.C．Feeling sick. D．Looking fine.4．Which of the following is the best title of this passage?A．Mr. Bean－a Top Humour ActorB．Raw Hamburger Tastes DisgustingC．Being Mannered in a RestaurantD．How to Pretend to Like Something BoringⅡ.完形填空Have you ever seen a miracle happen?
