Unit 3 Amazing people主题: 人与社会子话题: 对社会有贡献的人物对应教材: 必修 2 Unit 3 Amazing peopleⅠ. 细品味经典文章(2020·天津高考阅读理解D改编) After years of observing human nature, I have decided that two qualities make the difference between men of great achievement and men of average performance: curiosity and discontent. I have never known an outstanding man who lacked either. And I have never known an average man who had both. The two belong together.Together, these deep human urges(驱策力)count for much more than ambition. Galileo was not merely ambitious when he dropped objects of varying weights from the Leaning Tower at Pisa and timed their fall to the ground. Like Galileo, all the great names in history were curious and asked in discontent, “Why? Why? Why? ”Fortunately, cur iosity and discontent don’t have to be learned. We are born with them and need only recapture them.Lack of talent and time is no reason for taking no action. Harriet Stowe, mother of six, wrote parts of Uncle Tom’s Cabin while cooking. You’re too old? Remember that Thomas Costain was 57 when he published his first novel, and that Grandma Moses showed her first pictures when she was 78.Ⅱ. 按要求完成任务1. 写出文章中与本单元话题相关的单词或短语。

Unit 3 Amazing people(讲练)教学设计

Unit 3 Amazing people（讲练）教学设计一、过去完成时的形式及用法过去完成时的形式为had done。

其用法如下：1.过去完成时表示在过去某一时间或动作之前已经发生或完成了的动作。

它表示句子中描述的动作发生在“过去的过去”,可图示为：这个过去的某一时间可以用by, before等介词短语或一个时间状语从句来表示,也可以用一个表示过去的动作来表示,还可通过上下文来表示。

到六点钟为止他们已经工作八小时了。

By six o’c lock they had worked for eight hours.在他们到达之前电影已经开始了。

Before they arrived here, the film had already started.我到广州时,他在那里已经很长时间了。

When I came to Guangzhou, he had been there for a long time.注意：在before, after, as soon as等引导的从句中,由于这些连词本身已经表示出时间先后,所以可以用过去时来代替过去完成时。

Many people left for home before the film ended.电影尚未放完,许多人就起身回家了。

【高考典例】(2014北京卷)I found the lecture hard to follow because it _______ when I arrived.A. startedB. was startingC. would startD. had started答案D解析句意：我发现这个讲座很难跟上趟，因为我到的时候，它就开始了，根据句意可知这个报告是在我到达之前就开始的，而句中我到达使用了arrived，而报告是在这之前发生的，所以使用过去完成时故D 正确2.表示由过去的某一时刻开始,一直延续到过去另一时间的动作或状态,常和for, since构成的时间状语连用当公交车来的时候,我在车站已等了20分钟。

The prestige(名声)you acquire by being able to tell your friends that you know famous men proves only that you are yourself of small account. The celebrated develop a technique to deal with the persons they come across. They show the world a mask, often an impressive one, but take care to conceal their real selves. They play the part that is expected from them, and with practice learn to play it very well, but you are stupid if you think that this public performance of theirs corresponds with the man within.I have been attached, deeply attached, to a few people. But I have been interested in men in general not for their own sakes, but for the sake of my work. I have not regarded each man as an end in himself, but as material that might be useful to me as a writer. I have been more concerned with the ordinary than with the famous. They are more often themselves. They have had no need to create a figure to protect themselves from the world or to impress it. Their qualities have had more chance to develop in the limited circle of their activity, and since they have never been in the public eyes it has never occurred to them that they have anything to conceal. They display their strangeness because it has never struck them that they are strange. And after all it is with the common run of men that we writers have to deal; kings, presidents, commercial leaders are from our point of view very unsatisfactory. To write about them is a venture that has often attracted writers, but the failure that has attended their efforts shows that such beings are too special to form a proper ground for a work of art. They cannot be made real. The ordinary are t he writer’s richer field. Its unexpectedness, its miracle, its endless variety afford unending material. The great man is too often all of a piece; it is the little man that is a bundle of contradictory elements. You never come to the end of the surprises he has in store for you. For my part I would much sooner spend a month on a desert islandwith a taxi driver than with a prime minister.1. According to the first paragraph, the celebrated are .A. worth meeting passionatelyB. of small account to your friendsC. good at hiding their real selvesD. born with the nature of lying2. Which of the following is NOT the reason why the ordinary are more often themselves according to the author?A. They don’t need to protect themselves from being hurt by the world.B. They develop their characters in the limited circle of their activity.C. They have never been the focus of attention publicly.D. They have never realized that their behavior is strange.3. Why do writers prefer writing about the ordinary to writing about the celebrated?A. There are richer materials in the ordinary than in the celebrated.B. The celebrated are more difficult to be satisfied than the ordinary.C. The ordinary are often more contradictory than the celebrated.D. The celebrated are more different from each other than the ordinary.4. The author develops this article mainly by .A. examplingB. comparisonC. reasoningD. definitionⅢ. 任务型阅读(2014·扬州模拟)请认真阅读下列短文, 并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个．．最恰当的单词。

【湖南创新设计】2020高考英语一轮复习提能训练 Module 2 Unit 3 Amazing people(含解析)译林牛津版

【译林湖南版创新设计】2020高考英语一轮复习提能训练Module 2Unit 3 Amazing peopleⅠ.填词Do you ever imagine yourself on a quest(追寻)to unlock the secrets of civilization？If you do，Dan Brown’s new novel，The Lost Symbol，may be just the ticket.The novel is the third in Brown’s hugely popular adventure series.It follows Angels and Demons and The Da Vinci Code.In Angels and Demons，Professor Robert Langdon races through Rome，saving the city from an explosion(爆炸)．In The Da Vinci Code，he solves a mysterious death in Paris and uncovers religious(宗教的)secrets that rock Christianity(基督教)．In the new book Langdon is invited to Washington DC，the US capital，to give a lecture，following an invitation by a friend.He arrives to find the lecture has been cancelled(取消)．There may be no audience but our hero does find a strange object，a severed(断开的)hand patterned with strange symbols pointing to a picture of George Washington，America’s first ngdon sees it as invitation to mysterious knowledge.But the path to this knowledge is a difficult ngdon has to deal with soldiers who trail(跟踪)after him and the kidnapping(绑架)of a close friend.Fans of Dan Brown’s writing will not be able to wait to get their hands on this latest of his books.It’s another exercise in the formula(模式)that proved so successful in The Da Vinci Code and Angels and Demons.According to Monica Hesse，reporter with the Washington Post，Dan Brown’s greatest achievement is “the outsize(非常大的)impact his novels have had on the cities in which they’re set”．Just ask Colin GlynnePerc y，director of the Rosslyn Chapel Trust，the Scottish church from The Da Vinci Code，where Langdon believed he could find the Holy Grail(圣杯)．“Before the book came out，we had about 40,000 visitors a year，”GlynnePercy says.“It went to 80,000.Then to 120,000.T hen to 175,000.”The church has put in bathrooms and taken on staff to deal with the demand.Ⅱ.简答题Snow is a form of frozen water.It contains many groups of tiny ice particles called snow crystals.These crystals grow from water particles in cold clouds.They usually grow around a piece of dust.All snow crystals have six sides，but they grow in different shapes.The shape depends mainly on the temperature and water levels in the air.Snow crystals grow in one of two designs—platelike and columnar.Platelike crystals are flat.They form when the air temperature is about fifteen degrees below zero Celsius.Columnar snow crystals look like sticks of ice.They form when the temperature is about five degrees below zero.The shape of a snow crystal may change from one form to another as the crystal passes through levels of air with different temperatures.When melting snow crystals or raindrops fall through very cold air，they freeze to form small particles of ice，called sleet.Groups of frozen water droplets are called snow pellets.Under some conditions，these particles may grow larger and form solid pieces of ice，or hail.When snow crystals stick together，they produce snowflakes.Snowflakes come in different sizes.As many as one hundred crystals may join together to form a snowflake larger than two and onehalf centimeters.Under some conditions，snowflakes can form that are five centimeters ually，this requires near freezing temperatures，light winds and changing conditions in Earth’s atmosphere.Snow contains much less water than rain.About fifteen centimeters of wet snow has as much water as two and onehalf centimeters of rain.Aboutseventysix centimeters of dry snow equals the water in two and onehalf centimeters of rain.Snowfall helps to protect plants and some wild animals from cold，winter weather.Fresh snow is made largely of air trapped among the snow crystals.Because the air has trouble moving，the movement of heat is greatly reduced.Snow also is known to influence the movement of sound waves.When there is fresh snow on the ground，the surface of the snow takes in，or absorbs，sound waves.However，snow can become hard and flat as it becomes older or if th ere have been strong winds.Then the snow’s surface will help to send back sound waves.Under these conditions，sounds may seem clearer and travel farther.Generally，the color of snow and ice appears white.This is because the light we see from the sun is white.Most natural materials take in some sunlight.This gives them their color.However，when light travels from air to snow，some light is sent back，or reflected.Snow crystals have many surfaces to reflect sunlight.Yet the snow does take in a little sunlight.It is this light that gives snow its white appearance.1．What plays a major role in determining the shape of snow crystals？(no more than 8 words)_________________________________________________________________ _______2．What are the two designs snow crystals grow in？(no more than 4 words) _________________________________________________________________ _______3．Under what conditions can sounds travel a shorter distance，fresh snow or old snow？(nomore than 2 words)_________________________________________________________________ _______4．Generally，what is the color of snow？(no more than 2 words) _________________________________________________________________ _______Ⅲ.阅读理解Happiness can be described as a positive mood and a pleasant state of mind.According to recent surveys，sixty to seventy percent of Americans consider themselves to be moderately happy and one in twenty persons feels very happy.Psychologists have been studying the factors that contribute to happiness.It is not predictable，nor is a person in a clearly ideal situation necessarily happy.The ideal situation may have little to do with his actual feelings.A good education and income are usually considered necessary forhappiness.Though both may contribute，they are only chief factors if the person is seriously undereducated or actually suffering from lack of physical needs.The rich are not likely to be happier than the middleincome group or even those with very low incomes.People with college educations are somewhat happier than those who did not graduate from high school，and it is believed that this is mainly because they have more opportunity to control their lives.Yet people with a high income and a collegeeducation may be less happy than those with the same income and no college education.Poor health does not rule out happiness except for the seriously disabled or those in pain.Learning to deal with a health problem can contribute to happiness.Those with a good material life are happier in general，but those who have a loving，affectionate relationship are happier than those who rely on material alone.Love has a closer relationship with happiness than any other factor.It should be noted that people quickly get used to what they have，and they are happiest when they feel they are increasing their level no matter where it stands at a given time.Children whose parents were happily married have happier childhoods，but are not necessarily happier adults.The best formula for happiness is to be able to develop the ability to bear failure，to have a personal participation and devotion，and to develop selfconfidence and selfesteem.1．It can be inferred from the passage that ________.A．happiness is predictable rather than passively acceptedB．a person in an obviously ideal situation must be happyC．the ric h are likely to be happier than the middleincome groupD．happiness is not necessarily connected to one’s situation in society2．People with college education ________.A．are not happier than those who have only an education at high schoolB．are much happier than those who did not graduate from high school C．have less opportunity to control their livesD．have more opportunity to control their lives3．According to the article，happiness is greatly dependent on ________.A．a happy childhood in a happily married familyB．great wealth obtained by receiving a good educationC．a feeling that conditions are becoming for the betterD．a college degree and a high income4．Which of the following is most likely to contribute to happiness?A．Being exceptionally goodlook ing.B．Having a loving，affectionate relationship.C．Having a wellpaid job.D．Meeting lots of people.5．Which of the following attitudes or feelings is most likely to be found in happy people?A．Having selfesteem.B．Being sure of keeping everything they already have.C．Never being jealous.D．Knowing how to be charming.Unit 3 Amazing peopleⅠ.1．adventure 2.Angels and Demons 3.explosion 4.religious

Here drivers spend sixtyone hours every year stuck in traff ic. These drivers know all too well how bad the traffic can be. “It is a prison of cars. There are too many cars，and you cannot move around a lot，” they often say.Professor Cyrus Shahabi also knows about traffic jams. He lives more than 65 kilometres from his office at the University of Southern California，in Los Angeles. He is always late even with the help of a navigation(导航) system.He and his student Ugur Demiryurek decided to develop an app(应用软件) for that. The ClearPath app claims to do what other navigation systems cannot. Professor Shahabi says that his programme uses historical data to make predictions about traffic conditions even before the driver leaves the house.“What is unique is that we use a lot of data that is now available including traffic data and weather data. And we analyse that so that we can predict what is going to happen in front of you when you leave home，” said Professor Shahabi.Professor Shahabi says that his system does more than just respond to the present traffic conditions. With ClearPath，he says，a driver can enter what time he wants to leave on a specific time and date，and ClearPath will give the fastest route.Ugur Demiryurek says that they will launch the free ClearPath app for roads in Los Angeles in two months. In a year，he and Professor Shahabi hope to have ClearPath available nationwide and overseas once they can collect traffic data from other cities.16. The first paragraph is trying to show that ________．A．the traffic is crowdedB．there are too many cars in AmericaC．the drivers are living a bad lifeD．all Americans have personal cars17. Professor Cyrus Shahabi ________．A．lives near his officeB．likes his job very muchC．seldom gets to his office in timeD．always wishes to develop a new navigation system18. The ClearPath app ________．A．is more popular than other navigation systemsB．can predict traffic conditions ahead of timeC．helps in preventing traffic accidents happeningD．can tell drivers what the weather will be like19. How can ClearPath determine the fastest route for the driver?A．By using historical data.B．By collecting present data.C．By being given the specific time.D．By responding to the present traffic conditions.20. We can know from the passage that ________．A．traffic accidents won't happen with the help of ClearPathB．ClearPath has become popular around the United StatesC．ClearPath is now the best navigation system around the world D．it is possible to buy the ClearPath app in the world in a year BUsually, when your teacher asks a question, there is only one correct answer.But there is one question that has millions of current answers.That question is “What's your name？” Everyone gives a different answer, but everyone is correct.Have you ever wondered about people's names? Where do they come from? What do they mean?People's first names, or given names, are chosen by their parents.Sometimes the name of a grandparent or other members of the family is used.Some parents choose the name of a wellknown person.A boy could be named George Washington Smith; a girl could be named Helen Keller Jones.Some people give their children names that mean good things.Clara means “bright”；Beatrice means “one who gives happiness”； Donald means “world ruler”；Leonard means “as brave as a lion”．The earliest last names, or surnames, were taken from place names.A family with the name Brook or Brooks probably lived near a brook(小溪)；someone who was called Longstreet probably lived on a long, paved road.The Greenwood family lived in or near a leafy forest.Other early surnames came from people's occupations.The most common occupational name is Smith, which means a person who makes things with iron or other metals.In the past, smiths were very important workers in every town and village.Some other occupational names are: Carter—a person who owned or drove a cart; Potter—a person who made pots and pans.The ancestors of the Baker family probably baked bread for their neighbours in their native village.The Carpenter'sgreatgreatgreatgrandfather probably built houses and furniture.Sometimes people were known for the colour of their hair or skin, or their size, or their special abilities.When there were two men who were named John in the same village, the John with the gray hair probably became John Gray.Or the John who was very tall could call himself John Tallman.John Fish was probably an excellent swimmer and John Lightfoot was probably a fast runner or a good dancer.Some family names were made by adding something to the father's name.Englishspeaking people added s or son.The Johnsons are descendants of John; the Roberts family's ancestor was Robert.Irish and Scottish people added Mac or Mc or O．Perhaps all of the MacDonnells and the McDonnells and the O'Donnells are descendants of the same Donnell.21．Which of the following aspects do the surnames in the passage NOT cover?A．Places where people lived.B．People's characters.C．Talents that people possessed.D．People's occupations.22．According to the passage, the ancestors of the Potter family most probably________．A．owned or drove a cartB．made things with metalsC．made kitchen tools or containersD．built houses and furniture23．Suppose an English couple whose ancestors lived near a leafy forest wanted their newborn son to become a world leader, the baby might be named________．A．Beatrice Smith B．Leonard CarterC．George Longstreet D．Donald Greenwood24．The underlined word “descendants” in the last paragraph means a person's________．A．later generationsB．friends and relativesC．colleagues and partners D．later sponsors课时作业(六)Ⅰ.1.A2．A3．D 考查“连词＋分词形式”作状语。

高考英语一轮复习 Unit 3 Amazing people 高三2英语试题

入舵市安恙阳光实验学校Unit 3 Amazing people一、阅读理解We had a TV series in London. One of our fellow TV presenters seriously upset the camera crew when they arrived at his house. He was rude and unconcerned, treating them like lowly workers. Minutes later, when the camera was turned on, he became the perfectly smiling spiritual figure he was publicly known to be. But, as the crew told us later, he had already shown them that he didn't walk his talk.In contrast, Ed was meeting with Jo, our TV producer, in a small London cafe. If you have ever been to London you'll know that in such cafe the tables are very close. Two well dressed African men sat down next to them,which effectively meant they were sharing the same table. Ed asked the two strangers where they were from and one said, "South Africa. " The man pulled out his business card —his name was Jacob Zuma who, at thattime, was the President of the ANC but is now the President of South Africa. Usually, if you sit next to someone in a big city cafe, you don't even make eye contact, let alone conversation. Jacob had never met Ed before so he could have been distant and polite, he certainly didn't have to talk,let alone maintain communication, which he did over the following few years. He even hugged him!How we walk our talk shows far more than just our public behavior. Rather, it highlights how we view the world and our place in it. Jacob Zuma showed us how he treats others —with the fairness, consideration and respect that he treats all beings. No matter who we are, whether a streetcleaner or a president, we are all equal, here together as one human family. 1.What can we learn about the TV presenter? A. He felt upset before the camera. B. He was known for his being impolite. C. His deeds didn't agree with his words.D. He pretended to be polite to the camera crew.2.Which word can best describe Jacob Zuma according to the text? A. Friendly. B. Humorous.C. Generous.D. Serious.3.Why did Ed go to the small London cafe? A. To film a TV series. B. To interview Jacob Zuma.C. To meet with a TV producer.D. To observe people's public behavior.4.What is the text mainly about? presenters are often too proud.B. There still exists inequality in society.C.I. earned people are more likely to be polite.D. People should treat others with equal respect. 【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文。
