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。

It found that some experiments had underestimated(低估)the speed of flowering by 8.5 times and leafing by 4 times.“Across all species, the experiments under-predicted the speed of the advance — for both leafing and flo wering — that results from temperature increases,” the study said.The design of future experiments may need to be improved to better predict how plants will react to climate change, it sai d.Plants are necessary for life on the Earth.

A new study by the British government has discovered the mental health of the country's teenage girls has become worse.the survey,which included 30,000 14­year­old students in 2005 a nd 2014,showed 37 percent of girls with psychological stress,up from 34 percent in 2005.British boys' stress level was actually seen to fall over the same time period,from 17 percent to 15 percent.The report's authors pointed out the“advent of the social media age”could be a major contributing factor for increased stress among teenage British girls.“The adolescent years are a time of rapid physical,cognitive(认知的)and emotional development,”Pam Ramsden,a lecturer in psychology at the University of Bradford in the United Kingdom,wrote in a recent blog post.“Teenagers interact with people in order to learn how to become competent(有能力的)adults.In the past, they would engage with parents,teachers and other adults in their community as well as extended family members and friends.Now we can also add social media to that list of social and emotional development.”Throughout adolescence,girls and boys develop characteristics like confidence and self­control.Since teenage brains have not completely developed,teens don't have the cognitive awareness and impulse(冲动)control to keep from posting inappropriate content.Furthermore,this content can easily be spread far and wide with disastrous influences.Social media can also feed into girls' insecurities about their appearance,Ramsden said.These sites are often filled with images of people with body type unattainable to the normal person.However,these images and the messages tied to them gradually become societal standards.1.The statistics in the second paragraph show that ________.A.more and more children in Britain have mental health problemsB.few girls in Britain suffered from psychological stress in 2005C.more boys in Britain are suffering from mental pressure nowD.more British girls feel psychologically stressed than boys do now2.Contrary to traditional ways of interaction,social media ________.A.helps teenagers develop qualities like confidence and self­controlB.has many negative effects on girls' characteristic developmentC.makes teens aware of potential danger of the inappropriate contentD.teaches girls to care about their appearance to meet societal standards 3.The underlined word“advent”in Paragraph 3 can be replaced by“________”.A.arrival B.endC.disappearance D.invention【解题导语】一项新研究发现,英国少女的心理健康状况变得更糟;分析表明,社交媒体时代的到来可能是造成英国少女心理压力加大的主要因素。

April 23 marks the 400th anniversary of William Shakespeare’s death. Organizations in Britain have planned numerous events to honor him.In Stratford-upon-Avon, his birthplace, the tourism organization has a great number of free events, including performances of Shakespeare’s plays, and a dazzling fireworks display. And the BBC is broadcasting a live show from Stratfore-upon-Avon, celebrating Shakespeare’s widespread influence on the world. In England’s capital, the London Shakespeare Centre and King’s College London are holding a series of public performances, exhibitions and activities. It isn’t just England that honors the anniversary of the death of this extraordinary writer. In Washington, D. C., the Folger Shakespeare Library, which houses the world’s largest collection of documents relating to William Shakespeare, is displaying a series of exhibitions.Shakespeare is probably the most famous author who ever lived and is considered a genius by most. He wrote around 37 plays and 154 sonnets(十四行诗), and his work has been translated into over one hundred languages! He penned beautiful metaphors(暗喻), serious dramas and amusing tales.Shakespeare also invented many new terms and phrases. If someone’s behavior suggested they were not being honest and should not be trusted, Shakespeare called their actions suspicious. If someone was being silly and perhaps looking like a fool, Shakespeare found their actions laughable. And Shakespeare called people who offered their opinions on the quality of something critics. Today, for instance, food critics and film critics give audiences their opinions of food and film. The familiar phrase "break the ice" comes from Shakespeare’s play The Taming of the Shrew. The "ice is broken" when a difficult conversation or meeting iscalmed by some basic introduction, such as a simple game. More common words coined by Shakespeare include road, gossip, lonely, bump and hurry.Four hundred years after his death, Shakespeare surely lives on, in everyday speech, as the most famous writer of all time!1. The main idea of the text is _______.A. the 400th anniversary of Shakespeare’s deathB. the influence Shakespeare has on EnglishC. the achievements of William ShakespeareD. Shakespeare’s colorful and fruitful life2. Shakespeare is honored in the following ways except_________.A. a great number of free events in Stratford-upon-AvonB. a series of activities in the London Shakespeare CentreC. a series of exhibitions in the Folger Shakespeare LibraryD. a live show of Shakespeare from Stratford-upon-Avon3. According to the next, a simply game to make a difficult conversation easy is called _______.A. an ice-breakerB. a suspicious manC. a criticD. a laughable man【文章大意】4月23日是威廉·莎士比亚逝世第四百周年纪念日。

Unit3AtasteofEnglishhumour李仕才一、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, an d disappointment.My father is famous in our family for saying, “Take the extra m inute to do it right.” I always try to live by the “extra minute” rul e. When my children were young and likely to cause accident s, I always thought about what I could do to avoid an “if only ”moment, whether it was something minor like moving a cup fu ll of hot coffee away from the edge of a computer, or somethin g 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 sa fety. It’s equally important to avoid “if only” in our personal rel ationships. We all know people who lost a loved one and regr etted that they had foregone an opportunity to say “I love you” or “I forgive you”. When my father announced he was going t o the eye doctor across from my office on Good Friday, I toldhim that it was a holiday for my company and I wouldn’t be th ere. But then I thought about the fact that he’s 84 years old an d I realized that I shouldn’t give up an opportunity to see him.I called him and told him I had decided to go to work on my da y 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 sche dule 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 bes t kind of insurance for my emotional well-being.1.Which of the following is an example of the “extra minute” ru le ?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。

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.

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?

She said,“Sure. 2 don't go any farther than that.〞 After a while,we walked over to another hill by a pond (池塘) not far away.Then suddenly I saw Buddy walk out onto the ice.I was 3 when he walked to the middle of the pond.The 4 was thin there.We 5 Buddy,but he didn't listen.

In February, Principal Jane Hsu sent a letter to parents stating that the Pre-K through fifth grade students would not be given any traditional homework to encourage kids to have free time for reading, playing outside, or doing activities they enjoy."The negative effects of homework have been well established," Hsu wrote in a note to parents. "They include: children’s frustration and exhaustion, lack of time for other activities and family time and, sadly for many, loss of interest in learning."Some parents, however, disagree with the policy change, believing that a lack of focus will cause children to fall behind. Homework has been part of education from the beginning, and has increased in volume in recent years.Hsu’s advice that children should read and spend time wi th their families has upset some parents to the point of considering pulling their children out of P.S. 116. This group feels that homework assignments give children a goal to work toward. Others feel so strongly about the importance of homework that they have begun giving their own homework assignments to their children.An Australian Childhood Foundation survey found that 71% of Australian parents feel they do not spend enough quality time with their children mainly because of the time spent running the household or the time spent helping with homework. Education experts in Australia are saying that parents should stop helping. Doing so will givekids more independence, will give parents more free time, and will help reduce the number of homework-induced arguments in the family.While some research suggests that homework has little academic benefit for elementary students, other research shows homework can help kids develop independence, and confidence. It can also contribute to a sense of belonging or control over their lives. When parents try to help their children with homework, the assistance can take away that feeling and can also drain already exhausted working parents.1.Cancelling traditional homework is aimed at __________.A. allowing students to learn on their ownB. inspiring students to spend more time with parentsC. wishing students to seek self-developmentD. motivating students to help with housework2.What can be concluded from the 1st and 2nd paragraph?A. Jane Hsu is the first principal to cancel homework.B. Jane Hsu has done thorough research on homework.C. Jane Hsu paid little attention to students’ academic records.D. Jane Hsu knows students prefer activities to their subjects.3.Why are some parents strongly against Principal Jane Hsu?A. They have no time to give their children homework.B. They don’t think the school is responsible for their kids.C. They are afraid their kids will fall behind.D. They dislike their kids doing too many activities.4.What is the author’s attitude to parents’ helping kids with homework?A. Supportive.B. Indifferent.C. Ironic.D. Negative.【文章大意】这是一篇议论文,文章对是否应该给小学生布置家庭作业进行了论述。

2019高中英语 Unit 3 A taste of English humour Period 1 Warming Up

Unit 3 A taste of English humour Period 1 Warming Up & Reading课后阅读作业Ⅰ. 阅读理解AA lot of us lose life’s tough battles by starting a frontal attack—when a touch of humor might well enable us to win. Consider the case of a young friend of mine, who was on his trapped way to work shortly after receiving an ultimatum(最后通牒)about the job. Although there was a good reason for Sam’s being late—serious illness at home—he decided that this by-now-familiar excuse wouldn’t work any longer. His supervisor was probably already pacing up and down preparing a dismissal speech.Yes, the boss was. Sam entered the office at 9: 35. The place was as quiet as a locker room; everyone was hard at work. Sam’s supervisor came up to him. Suddenly, Sam forced a grin and stretche d out his hand. “How do you do! ”he said. “I’m Sam Maynard. I’m applying for a job, which, I understand, became available just 35 minutes ago. Does the early bird get the worm? ”The room exploded in laughter, except that the supervisor had to clamp off a smile and walked back to his office. Sam Maynard had saved his job—with the only tool that could win, a laugh.Humor is a most effective, yet frequently neglected, means of handling the difficult situations in our lives. It can be used for patching up differences, apologizing, saying “no”, criticizing, getting the other fellow to do what you want without his losing face. For some jobs, it’s the only tool that can succeed. It is a way to discuss subjects so sensitive that serious dialog may start a quarrel. For example, many believe that comedians on television are doing more today for racial and religious tolerance than people in any other forum.【语篇概述】本文通过一个小故事, 讲述了幽默的重要性。

Some people said it was an expected thing while others asked: Why now? What will you do?For me, making the move to Israel is the fulfillment of a dream that has lasted for my 47 years of life. I have always known that Israel is my home. Over the years Israel has been in my heart, but I have found a number of reasons to put off making it my permanent residence: kids, the economy, education...you name an excuse, and at some point I have probably used it.Truthfully, I believe that I was always just a little bit scared. And of course I still am, with the fear factor that is reported by the press surrounding the Israeli military and economy. However, it has come to the point when I have realized that for over 2 000 years we yearned for this land, and for 47 years I have denied the opportunity to make it my home.I am finally ready to fully grasp this opportunity.Over the years, I have always loved visiting Israel. I have traveled there with my family, and enjoyed introducing thousands of travelers to the country. All of these things that I have come to love about Israel as a tourist are because I get to love my home. And as far as waiting for the "perfect"condition under which to make aliyah, I believe the time is now!I have been asked many times if I am nervous about moving to Israel. Before I answer, I remember that we have overcome the Greeks, the Romans, the Russian killings, Hitler and the Holocaust(大屠杀), and the armies of seven countries.How can I not feel confident that I, and my family, will overcome any difficulties that may come our way? I am not worrying, complaining,crying, or fearing as I prepare to make aliyah. I am proud and excited to say that I am fulfilling a 47-year-old dream; I am going home.1.What does the author want to say in the passage?A. His dream is to come true after 47 years.B. It is a dilemma for him to return to Israel.C. He didn’t live a happy life in Israel.D. It is a latest trend to fulfill everyone’s dream.2.The author didn’t return to Israel before because .A. his children mainly held him backB. he failed to get determinedC. he didn’t save enough moneyD. he hoped to finish his education3.What does the underlined part "make aliyah"mean in the passage?A. To return to Israel.B. To make a decision.C. To live happily.D. To catch a chance.4.It can be inferred from the passage that .A. the author will be happy to meet his relatives in IsraelB. Israel is a familiar word but a strange place for the authorC. the Israeli suffered a lot in the historyD. Israel is still a place between war and chaos【文章大意】本文是一篇讲述个人经历的记叙文。
